I have used programs like Locale and other dock programs and they work great to open my desk clock when connected to my dock from eBay, however, is there any way to open the navipanel when in my car? Via an application or a car charger that sends the instruction to the phone?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceat:
I bought an Evo back 2 weeks ago and went through the whole 4g fiasco, but I was unable to fix it. The furthest I got was my 4g would try to obtain an ip address but never get it.

So I got a replacement Evo today and right out of the box (Software .6) the 4g was not working. It would scan-connecting-authorizing - - - Then nothing it would just go back to scan -connecting - auth --- scan and so on.

So I did the full root +nand unlock

Then did Whitlock method, then flashed DC newest ROM.

Wimax is still repeating the same things for me.

MY username/pass are good.

My DEV MAC is a little different though.

It matches both on the software and behind the battery. DEV MAC - 38:E78:**:**:**

I have done profile update numerous times, I have applied the permission fix, I have renamed the Tree file, I have factory reset my phone.

Nothing I do will allow me to connect successfully to 4g.

My wife has her 4g. I rooted/nand then did whitlock, then flashed over to the newest DC ROM and her phone connects to 4g just fine.

Any Idea's?

I called Sprint and they sent me to the highest tech and she said she doesn't know what to do for me, figures...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nenn:
sounds like it might be an account problem on their end, unless you and your wife are on the same plan. unless you are, and then try her credentails.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceat:
Yes me and my wife are on the same family plan.

And Sprint said everything looked fine on their end
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nenn:
when you get a chance, check the value of "Current username" in

Settings->About Phone->Phone Identity

on both phones. see if they match, if not, bother the hell out of sprint. unless youg et it fixed first :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceat:
Wait the identity should or should not match?

Mine is different than my wifes.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanEnRui:
To answer your question (the post title) -- "be pissed off."

Your situation is really strange and it sounds like you've tried a lot of the "fixes" here for 4G.

What area are you in?

Have you tried Settings->Update->Update Profile (and PRL) ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceat:
Yea man, I am in Dallas/Ft. Worth

My wifes phone has great 4g service just blocks form our house.

I got her phone, and root/nand unlocked it, then used whiteslack method, then flashed DC 3.2.3

Working like a charm.

Anyways I did the same for my replacement Evo. (Came with .6 software out of box) OUT OF BOX 4g was not working!

So I said to hell with it I will fix it on my own with help here from XDA.

So to no avail I still have not been able to fix it.

After talking to Sprint in person they told me to hang onto my phone becuase they are coming out with a patch that will fix my 4g because now it is a known problem. So I am hoping when the patch comes out it will not break my root/nand. But damn its pissing me off.

If I am posting in the wrong place, please advise me on where to post to get help.

I have followed the directions on this forum to root my Sprint Hero Phones with the stock 2.1 using this topic //xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694572 (sorry it isn't a link, i do not have permission to post links). I have rooted three Hero's thus far. The first two gave me zero problem. The third one will not do a Nandroid backup. When ran connected USB i can view the log which I will post below. Yes the SD card is empty 2GB free, I tried to reformat the card. It is a problem while backing up the recovery. IF i run it with switches nandroid-mobile.sh -b --recovery then it runs without error but there is no recovery.img file. Therefore, it is obvious it cannot created a recovery.img and that is the part that fails. Can anyone help me with this issue. I am new to root so I don't even know what recovery.img is for? Is that the recovery menu I am in when trying to make this backup?

Nandroid is corrupted. Try a different one. There is a thread for that error. Just search for it
[Hero CDMA General] gupter:
Per the instruction, i have tried to copy unrevoked to to the sd card again and then run it by "sh /sdcard/unrevoked" shouldn't that copy nandroid to my phone again? If not, does anyone have instructions on how to get a new copy of non corrupted nandroid to my phone?
[Hero CDMA General] gupter:
in the previous post i actually ment to say i ran "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img"

Shouldn't that recopy nandroid to my phone?
[Hero CDMA General] chromiumleaf:
Yes it will. But you may need to re-download recovery though. Either re-download the same one from the server/website and push it to your sd card again, or download an entirely new/different recovery image. There are several recovery versions floating around this forum.
[Hero CDMA General] gupter:
I'm starting to think there is something wrong with this particular phone. Here is what I got when i tried RA-heroc-1.6.2

/ # flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2-pink.img

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2-pink.img

flashing recovery from /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2-pink.img

mtd: erase failure at 0x00380000 (Input/output error)

mtd: erase failure at 0x00380000 (Input/output error)

mtd: skipping write block at 0x00380000

and now it will not boot into recovery.

So, I flashed back to 1.5.2 and it worked...

tried 1.6.2 again and got the same error.

is there a problem with 0x00380000? that is what is wrong with the nandoid backup and now i can't reflash a recovery. Is this fixable?

Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA General] chromiumleaf:
Nope, sorry, that is a little over my head. :(

The only other suggestion I would have is completely start over. Try to run the RUU again and restore your phone to regular stock 2.1. Then re-download all the root tools all over again....Android SDK, HTC Sync, and the .zip that contains the rest of the files....and start the whole root process over from square one. Maybe you've already tried that with no success, but that's about the only other thing I can think to suggest.
[Hero CDMA General] gupter:
Thanks for all your help so far. Now I hope some else on here might have an idea. My phone works great and this is my wife's phone....she is none too happy at the moment!
[Hero CDMA General] danaff37:
The recovery partition isn't writable. Either you are not properly rooted, or you need to mount it as writable. If you adb shell, then su, do you get the # prompt? If not, then you are not rooted. If so, exit the shell, type adb remount, and then try flashing
[Hero CDMA General] gupter:
I have a # sign at the prompt.

I can mount as writable and successfully flash 1.5.2.

But nandroid reports an error at 0x00380000

Therefore, I decided to flash 1.6.2 to see if this fixes my problem. Instead i get an error about 0x00380000 when trying to reflash. When I try to boot recovery afterwards, it just hangs on the "HTC" screen

So, I boot back into regular OS and use adb to mount writable and then reflash the recovery back to 1.5.2. That happens with success. But of course if I try to run nandroid it reports an error again at 0x00380000.

So i think I am rooted and I think I am mounting it correctly. But evidently i can't read or write into memory 0x00380000. But I don't know what that means or how to fix.

Any additional suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
For background I am running Fresh's rom on my Evo. Have a couple questions:

#1 Really not sure if I need to use Perflock. When I'm in SetCPU, I have my min max 245 - 768. Despite this it is ranging 245-998. While it doesn't appear to be in use / idle it appears to hanging around 245. Is this normal behavior for the CPU when SetCPU is not enabled? It appears to me that I do need Perflock because once I set it, the processor is limited to 768 as requested.

#2 if Perflock is required, is it worth the extra step each boot to change from 999 to 768? Is it a big savings?

#3 How does one check to see that the mandatory 245 speed is really active when screen is off?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jykinturah:
I'm not altogether sure about #1 or #2.

I can answer #3.

If you are running fresh, you can check this using adb.

Just lock your screen and leave it for a while to idle.

On your computer, using adb, you can type:

adb shell powertop -d

Wait for it to finish. It should print out a bunch of output after 15 seconds or so. Near the top, there will be CPU frequencies and a percentage of time spent right next to them.

Look for something along the lines of:

245 MHz x%

Over the past few days I have noticed that when I am at work (or out and about), my weather tab has the incorrect city (it has one a few towns over). Also when I am at home with my AIRAVE, the city I get is in the next state about 1 hour away and used to be only a few towns over. I am running MIGHTY ROM 2/1 (with updates) on sprint. Is there a fix for where it grabs the weather from or is something else messed up?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] undefined:
from what I know, the weather tab uses the Cell towers to distinguish the location, so I may possibly be just your radio, what version do you have, and what version is suggested by your ROM's chef?

One of the most impressive features of Android 2.2 Froyo shown off at Google I/O was its 'push' functionality. If you missed the keynote, it's worth watching -- but in short: you can push things from your desktop computer to your phone. Reading some news, but have to head off to work? Just click a button and it pops up on your phone. The same goes for apps: browse the Android Market on your desktop, click a button and it's automatically installed to your phone.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbaltzer:
Hey guys, I got my Nexus One earlier this week, and I love it so far, but I have some issues with my screen.

There seems to be a checkerboard kind of print on it. I can't really explain it any better than that. At first I thought it was maybe residue from the plastic wrapping it came in, but after a week and some thorough cleaning, it's still there.

It appears to be finger grease, which indicates that there's a problem with the glass. After cleaning it with a microfiber cloth, the pattern is gone (or at least extremely hard to see), but after some use, it becomes clearly visible again. To me, this says there's extremely small deviations in the glass, which finger grease gets stuck in where it isn't removed by a quick wipe down. To further support this theory, the screen seems more rough swiping top to bottom, than bottom to top, which would make sense given the pattern.

Edit: After thoroughly cleaning the screen, the breathing on it (like a window), my breath makes the pattern clearly visible. Though, this doesn't really confirm anything.

Has anyone else had or seen this issue? Any recommendations on fixing it, or should I be calling up HTC?

I'll try to take a picture when I get home from work, but I doubt it'll be visible. My only other camera is an iPhone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watercool:
I think what you see is the digitizer. It is barely visible but you can see it on every touchscreen phone
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjsimmons:
Not to be one of those guys, but I never saw the digitizer on my iPhones, until I got my Nexus One. Had a moment of uh, my phone's screen is really going to be like that? until I realized what it was, and now I only notice it at an angle in bright light.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watercool:
You are right, with you can see it I meant just in theory.

I saw it the first time on an n1 too, but only once or twice, but never saw it again since it is so barely visible
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjsimmons:
Yeah, I definitely knew what you meant. Just wanted to throw that out there. ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostinbeta:
It kind of sounds like your phone is suffering some form of Newton rings. In the phone world its when the front screen presses on the digitizer and creates light refraction, thus looking like oil swirls. My HTC fuze suffered this horribly and it gets worse over time as far as touch sensitivity goes. I would recommend calling HTC. My nexus doesn't have this issue at all.

I am wondering now if the shipping nexus ones have the LCD screens instead of amoled because of the shortage in amoled screens though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbaltzer:
I don't believe I'm seeing the digitizer. This is on the glass, not the display itself. It's visible on the bezel around the screen as well. I'll try to take a picture when I get home from work.

Edit: to be clear, it covers the entire front glass, over the display and the bezel, and is clearly visible even with the display on.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Strange issue. Never saw this when I purchased mine, though that's probably because I was excited to turn it on rather than inspect the body.

I think it probably has to with the adhesive material between the digitizer and the display not completely curing. When it does cure you don't see it very well but when you use the phone and it heats up the pattern comes back. At least that's my theory.

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbaltzer:
Took some pictures. For the sake of size, I'll link them.

Full screen, off

Screen edge, off

Screen edge, on

These are pretty accurate, in terms of what daily usage is like. The full screen one might be a bit much, I had to hand print it up to get it to show in the picture, but the one with with the display on is pretty much what using it (indoors) is like.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjsimmons:
I've seen that sometimes on my phone, but it's not nearly as often as it seems to be with yours. Not sure what that is then.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.bruha:
I had a problem with my screen that can only be described as similar. One of the replacement Nexus Ones I received had an incomplete oleophobic coating where the entire bottom 1/4th of the screen would be very clear and the top would get cloudy after light use. There were also a few circles just like the bottom of the phone on the upper portion as well.

I called HTC and they just replaced it for me. Sounds like you should do the same.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Whoa, those look like the glass was machined improperly or that the adhesive issue I hypothesized about earlier could be the culprit.

Contact HTC or Google at 1-888-48-NEXUS (63987).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbaltzer:
Thanks! Just got off the phone, they're going to replace it. Also, I can't believe how friendly/helpful they were. I'm extremely impressed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Nexus One's do not have a oleophobic coating on the screen.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Same here, they're extremely nice.

I wanted to get a replacement battery since mine has short battery life and constantly overheats, so they forwarded me to HTC but unfortunately for some reason they didn't have my IMEI or S/N on their records, so I couldn't do anything. :(
