Weird for me it just worked. Do you have the android software development kit installed? http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
yes i am having,,but donno how to use it???

Please help me friend....
[Desire General] Flaggie:
For me just connecting the phone, selecting htc sync (mode on the phone) and then running the .exe was enough. So i'm kinda at a loss now
[Desire General] :
the drivers haven't installed correctly.

it's not the fricking sdk you need installed, it's htc sync!
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
Hey Thx mate,

I had all installed , it starts updatig too. After reaching for final stage and after clicking for final time it starts too but few se conds later it says the error(USB disconnect).

All drives installed otherwise RUU would not have shown me my current Rom status and update Rom status.
[Desire General] Flaggie:
Maybe try this one: RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe

If it works, you will get a message once you boot it up that you can update.
[Desire General] wr8_utd:
What are the various methods of unlocking a branded phone and which one is recommended to prevent the phone getting locked again after future software upgrades?
[Desire General] Flaggie:
That is kind off topic isn't it?

(but from what i have read you need to create a goldcard and insert it in your phone and then just run the RUU we talked about here, but as you can see in various threads there are some problems with upgrading to a new version, which might cause you to lose wifi or to get a network lock)
[Desire General] wr8_utd:
Yeah sorry but since people were discussing the roms I thought I would post it here.

You could PM me actually to avoid hijacking this thread.

What bout the unlock codes used to unlock the phone?
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
Now started updating and another error occurred.....

ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR

One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the update. The RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the Android phone. Make sure you use the correct RUU to update.

Can someone please get me out of this errors please.......:( :( :(
[Desire General] Flaggie:
from which country is the phone originally?
[Desire General] markuz85:
Have you tried using a goldcard?
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
I bought it in INDIA. It says made in Thailand.

Is there any other method to find out the country??
[Desire General] Flaggie:
maybe try to flash this one: RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_India_1.21.720.4_Radio_32.36.00 .28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127705_signed.exe

since it is for india specifically, and i guess every single one should have english on it.

Edit: just read somewhere else that it might be an indication that your phone is branded, so try it with the goldcard as mentioned above
[Desire General] markuz85:
I read somewhere that some Asian phones need goldcard. At MoDaCo I think? Try that, it might just work.
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
Thx Bro and sorry for late reply as was on tour yesterday,,,,,

just one thing to ask is this phone has not released in INDIA yet, is it possible to have special ROM for INDIA ???????
[Desire General] Flaggie:
well it says india, but don't know how people got it.
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
I have tried it today and got the same error......

Donno what to do now with my Desire now???

Shall i go ahead with Root...????
[Desire General] Flaggie:
Have you also tried with the goldcard as suggested by others?
[Desire General] pranavd1980:
Nope....Actually having fear to brick my Desire.....

Do You Suggest it???? if yes what method...i am confused with several methods available here......
[Desire General] Flaggie:
I have absolutly no experience with gold cards, so maybe another member can help you out with that.
[Desire General] cez10:
try this one

Since the source was released I thought we would see a lot more development in aosp 2.1 roms. A lot of the devs are working on 2.2 but they are still missing a lot of features. Id kill for a fully functional 2.1 aosp rom with out sense.

Anyone else feel this way?
[EVO 4G General] HarveyStyles:
I wouldn't mind seeing it ported either. I used the darch port for the hero, before I retired it for the Evo. Loved it.
[EVO 4G General] blulitespecial:
I would love this too. Froyo is great, but I'd rather have something fully functional in AOSP. (No, if it doesn't have a working camera, it's not fully functional. Close, but no)

At least 2.1 would be good until Froyo could be perfected. I was happy with 2.1 on the hero.

Ok So I bought a my EVO from craigslist it came rooted with wifi tether app. I live at my Parents who have internet and I've really never needed to use the wifi tether so it’s of no use to me. I've read a lot on this site about custom roms but I just paid $400 for this evo I really don't want to brick it. I just want to be like all the other boring evo owners out there who update there software and everything works like normal. I'm kind of geeky but i don't have that inner smart geek that lets me do all that computer command line crap and ****. So would I just go to the settings and go to private were you restore the form? Currently on my phone when I search for updates on 1.32.651.6 it says none are available and im hoping that the new update help the battery life..

I figured i would just install the update and lose the root but my phone won't even let me do that cause it says none are available..

[Dash 3G, Snap General] EngineerMind:
I used to be able to press the * (asterisk) key on my old dash/excalibur phone to toggle full screen in apps such as slingplayer.

But I have noticed that the * key on my new HTC Snap (s522) is not recognized by many apps. On my S522, the asterisk is a "alt+" function, but even if I press the ALT key first, then the "A" key (which has the * on it to), the app wont recognize it.

I also found that when playing doom4ce, when you try to exit by pressing the "Y" key to the Prompt "Exit", it also will not work :(

Can anyone give me any clues as to how to fix this - such as modifying some keymap file?

If so, what is the name of this keyboard file and where is it located?

Any tips on how to modify it would be greatly appreciated!
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Mr. Clown:
What rom are U running? If you are running 3vo custom rom, keymapping is built in just need to enable it (english UK, USA....etc) if you are not. Check the sticky (Rom Dev. Section) you will find a tutorial over there.

I hope that helps

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jdx915:
I have a Tmobile HTC TP2 flashed with Energy Rom and it had been working fine for several weeks. Today the screen randomly turned off and the red light was on. I couldn't soft reset or anything, but removing the battery and putting it back and powering up worked. However, it only stays on for about a minute before the screen turns black again with the red light coming back on. Anyone know what is going on or how to fix this??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Red light ... do you mean the left hand light? That one is orange on my TP2. Is the unit hot to the touch on the back panel?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jdx915:
Yes the left hand light...after looking at it again it does appear to be orange, not red. The back panel does not feel hot, and when the screen goes black, the orange light appears to flicker a little bit as if there may be some kind of power issue or something (but is mainly solid orange like it is when it's charging), I'm not sure. I don't believe it's a problem with the actual battery, because I've tried using a different battery and have gotten the same results.

Edit: It is now staying on longer maybe a few hours compared to the minute or so it was staying on yesterday, but with the same turning off problems. Except I think it is just the screen that is turning off because if I play with the volume buttons, eventually I can hear the volume up/down sounds.

After searching through some forums, it seems it could be a 'Sleep of Death' problem...

Here is a link to droidforums. It has links to most rooted Tom's for Droid.

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacking/

You can also try other sites like alldroid.org, phandroid. The developers site which is "xda" and "sdx". There are many others so just search around they all have forums for different devices for this information. One of the most helpful I've found for noobs was unlocked.com. give it a try.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] calash:
Look-up RomManager in the marketplace if you will be moving between versions alot, it handles these changes very well.

As to going to previous versions I can not say for sure. In theory yes but you will ether have to find a pre-made Droid rom or build it yourself.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] droidap:
Thanks!

Thank you both for the replies and information. I will continue my research and see what I can dig up. Hopefully I can find a 1.5 rom as building it myself is a little out of my ability right now.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] aerdely:
Yes rom manager would be a good idea forgot to mention it. It works great for switching roms I just have a little problem with mount sdcard in clockworkmod recovery so mine will reboot after entering recovery and rom manager doesn't help some times but it seems to work great for most devices. My problem is I have to reformat sdcard because I came from Eris and I don't want to till I can get a computer to backup info on it.
[Nexus One General] saint327:
I am talking about the standard Froyo implementation, not a custom one.

I just noticed this. Move an app that has a widget, like Pandora to SD and the widget is no longer available and can't be re-selected. Even moving Pandora back to the phone memory did not restore the widget. Had to uninstall the app and reinstall it back to the phone to get my widget back.

So if an app has a widget that use, can't move that to the SD card...great!
[Nexus One General] SBS_:
This is a known limitation of the A2SD that Froyo uses. To get the widget back, copy the program to phone memory again and restart the phone.
[Nexus One General] musashiken:
Yes they even cautioned developers against implementing that feature to apps which have constant background process or widgets.

Anyway you've probably did the 'setInstallLocation' trick to move the app to sd. Which is not recommended if you don't know what apps are perfectly okay to move to sd.
[Nexus One General] musashiken:
Double post
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
Actually the Pandora devs have allowed it to be moved to SD. It's probably nice for people who use it without the widget, but they should warn the widget users not to do it.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Personally I like the choice, although perhaps a warning when starting Pandora for the first time when installed on SD would be appropriate.
[Nexus One General] musashiken:
Ah didn't know that... since I'm not in the US and pandora's only for the US. Oh well.

I can't remember wether which one of these roms I flashed:-

or even

[Nexus One General] MaximReapage:
Doesn't matter...in that case, I would say either the connection was the limiting factor or there wasn't a lot of javascript on the pages they tested. There's no "perfect" way to test a browser's performance, though, and if you go to pages that employ javascript extensively, you'll definitely find the clear edge goes to Froyo; and if not, you'll find them pretty close to even. That's just how it works.

After a while my wife called and told me that my phone got crazy and sent all the text messages (sms) i have sent her from the time i bought the phone.

After a while a friend called me and told me the same.

As i understand the phone regonized the sms as unsent?

When i decided to go back to the .20 firmware i did the same and i had the same results :) All people got my sms again.

Again yesterday when i installed Home++ did the same.

If someone expirienced the same problem please advice .
