I wasn't so lucky with my wet phone please help !

Hello Guys, I am a doctor and the other night I got home really tired and put my phone on top of my drawer as I always do, and took a coupe of aspirins and after a few mins. of tv I fell asleep. I had the glass with some water also on top of the drawer and while asleep I hit the plastic glass and some water dropped (I believe on the surface of my HD2) I say I believe because I was asleep and and I woke up at the noise of the glass falling on the floor.

I noticed the phone screen was wet and cleaned it and went back to bed.

I failed to remove the battery or turn the phone off, next morning, the screen of the phone was flashing on and off repeatedly and it behaved erratically.

I removed the battery, removed the back cover and wait... It has been three days now and if I put in the battery it turns on and works almost fine for a few mins. but the volume screen pops up repeatedly and the volume does not work and at some point it seems the phone goes crazy showing all kind of screens at random like a DEMO MODE (if you know what I mean) but the must frequent is the volume screen.

I bought some humidity absorbing powder and the phone is just there, now surrounded by it. I don't even know if it is wet inside.

Does this behavior sound familiar to any of you ? the thing is that I don't have HTC support service in my country, this phone I imported it from the us and I trully hope this is a wet solutionable problem.

I apologize for my lack of English, I hope no one gets uncomfortable.

Any help guys please ?¿
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Well, if it still has water in it, you could try putting it in a bowl with some rice to draw the water out ..... let it sit covered with rice in the bowl for a couple of days might work better or might not than the drying powder you have ...

all I got ...
[HD2 General] bhand:
Thank you so much for your advise.

I will do that, the phone has been surrounded with thah powder for 24 hours now.

I'll post whatever news I get.

Again thanks a lot
[HD2 General] christofertan:

Thanks in advance
[G1 General] Dandroids:
Hello Guys,

First I just want to say I love the forum, read many threads on here last night and despite being a total noob to flashing, developing etc I thought I'd have ago and flashing my G1.

Well it went well, love the new software, but I have one problem - I can't download from the Market place - whatever application I choose to download just stays as 'downloading' but nothing actually comes down - my data connection works just fine, with normal internet browsing working normally.

I wonder if anyone could make a suggestion - please find my phone set up data

HTC G1/Dream

Firmware 2.1-update1

Baseband version 62.505.20.17H_2.22.19.26I

Kernel version 2.6.34-cyanogenmod

Mod Version CyanogenMod-5.0.8-DS

Build Number EPE54B

Thanks again!
[G1 General] Dandroids:
Also noticed that despite inside the notifications menu, I have the LED turned on - when I receive a text the light doesn't flash?

Thanks
[G1 General] Dandroids:
Ok, thats one problem fixed - the issue with downloads looks like a Marketplace issue - so that's all good!

So, just one other thing - when voicemails or texts are received the light doesn't flash - even though I've got it set up correctly in the settings....

Anyone else with this problem or have any tips?
[G1 General] dmwOtis:
The notificaton LEDs only work when the screen is off. You really don't need them when it's on.
[G1 General] Dandroids:
Sure, but even when my screen is off and I get a text the LED doesn't blink.
[G1 General] dmwOtis:
Try checking that the missed call LED is checked under call settings.
[G1 General] Dandroids:
All of a sudden without doing anything at all, it's working now - very odd.

This new OS is pretty Juicy on the battery, but not sure if its the fact I've been getting to know it all day.
[G1 General] Dandroids:
A bug found by the looks of things - none of my contacts will save?

I've added the same person 3 times and it says saving contacts but when I got back in to contacts it isn't there .......anyone offer some suggestion(s)?

I've tried to synch with google and nothing happens - why doesn't the contact save to the phone or SIM? I'm not overly interested in storing contacts on Google - the standard firmware for the phone stores them on the phone/sim - where in the settings does it dictate where a contact is stored to ?

Thanks

Solved, the contact wasn't displayed as some of the boxes under contact settings weren't ticked - why on earth would I want to "hide" my contacts?? Oh well ......thanks
[General Questions and Answers] pooloop:
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this before about micro sd cards not formatting but i bought a new htc hd2 and it came with a 2gig micro sd card which worked fine but i needed more memory so i purchased a 8 gig micro sdhc card which worked fine for about a month when i turned on my phone it asked me to format which i did not want to do as it had all contacts etc on but in had to perform a format on my card through the phone which it did so when i went to put all my contacts back in via active sync it was only showing 30.6meg instead of 8gig and would not let me format in fat32 as it was only showing me fat now i needed my contacts so i purchased a 4gig micro sdhc on Monday of this week and this morning when i turned on my phone the same thing happened again 30.6meg and fat so now i am back on my original card of 2gig which format properly in fat 32 every time do you know what the problem is

thanks

I'm going to take one guess that this is a sandisk mem card?? HTC have said they know about the problem but have done nothing bout it, there is quite a few threads in the hd2 section about this problem, just for you're info i have a transcend 8 gig and works perfectly :)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luojs:
Hi,

I have OTA upgrade from EPE54B to FRF91.

But I can't found "Update All" Button in Market APP. Also I never see so called "Top Paid" or "TOP Free" Tab in Market APP even under 2.1. Any idea? Thanks a lot.

BTW Market App Version 1.82
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MountainDrew:
You will only see the Update All button when you have more than one app to update.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
The missing 'Top Paid' button seems to be a fairly widespread issue at the moment. It's across several devices, carriers and builds and *may* be tied to accounts / the server-side.

You may also see 'Download unsuccessful' and hangs on 'Installing' in the market, whilst apps actually install.

There are multiple threads here and on Google's own forums.

I've got a call raised with the Technical Support team, and several Google employees are involved on several of the Google forum threads.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewM56:
you should check out "AppBrain" and "Fast Web Installer" it lets you browse applications on the appbrain webpage on your pc and send them to be downloaded on your phone, plus it has an update all button that works and i find browsing the market a bit better than the normal "Market"
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luojs:
Thanks for every one.

I only saw one auto update and one manual update. I'll wait for more update then try again.

BTW: I have AppBrain installed on first day my N1 arrived. Great Apps.

UPDATE:I just have 3 update avaliable, now update all show up. Thanks again for the Help.

The game is called Throw a Panda and is available on the android market for free here: http://www.android.com/market/#app=heinrisch.throwa.pandaad

Game is located on the 'Top Free' tab of the android market place.

Would be really good if someone could do this.

I have a very big problem on my XDA IIs, i cannot unlock the phonelock even though i input the correct password.

-on my way home, my phone got emptied(battery empty). and then when i opened it, the problem began. please help me. what should i do?

-i have read articles stating that it is a common problem when the battery got emptied.

-my phone is an O2 xda IIs WM 6.5, serial 2.7.

-ty for the reply....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
as i told you via pm already, there is no way to unlock the phone, once you set a password. the phone "forgets" the right password and would say, any password you put in, is wrong. that is why the only way to get rid of the problem is to re-flash the phone. a hard reset won't work, since that would be a terrible theft protection and also there is no way to backup any data, since even connected to the pc you are not given any access to the phone. that is why, in several threads here, and in several positions in my tutorial, i warn people, not to set a password in a cooked rom. you can do it in the stock wm2003 rom though, it works perfectly fine.

if you feel the need to protect your phone using a password, you need to look for 3rd party software to do that. i think spb has a nice app for that.

Hi all

looking for some help. I am trying to have a quick way to set up a custom network settings for gprs. ideally i would cook them into the rom but have had no success. i followed a guide here http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-281982.html but when i ran it, it merely said unsuccessful.

Im thinking this is to do with Touch HD2 being on WM6.5

any help woud be great, even an alternative method would be great

thanks

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] anoniem:
heey guyz,

As written above, my problem is that my htc HD does not support Sense anymore!

I've tried several ROMS and a lot of Chefs but all had the same result at the end!

The Problem:

When I flash a rom (with sense) the first time it works perfectly, but after one reset it sticks at startup screen and does not show the sense app, I only can get into the start menu.

This is what I already tried:

-Tried several roms, kitchens, chefs, restaurants etc

-Tried flashing with 3x hardreset after complete

-Tried Task29

-Tried to shut off the sense app and switch to WM standard home screen but this gives the same result after 4 or 5 days (currently using energy ROM no problems with WM standard home screen but with the sense)

Please any solution? I need help as fast as possible cuz I'm going on vacation the 9th for almost 6 weeks and I don't want a crappy phone!!

sorry for my bad bad English!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tamnteh:
how about flash back to official rom and then reflash to cooked rom? sometime people will do that if their HD went "crazy". no harm to try.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] usert:
Application Data is stored on the SD. Maybe this is causing problems for you with Sense (old, corrupt, etc.).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] YarGlaa:
Agree, as quick fix remove the SD.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] anoniem:
I'll try both suggestions and reply asap

thanks for the fast replies

Tied to just remove the SDCard and until now it works like a charm!
[HD2 General] umtcytgn:
Hey Guys,

I have downloaded and installed some programs to my HD2's internal memory by mistake (I was a newbie). Now, it is full of programs and i am running out of memory.

I want to move all of the program files to storage card. I tried cut and paste. However, this time, wm gives error saying it cannot find the path for the program.

Is there a way which allows me to move files directly to the storage card instead of removing and reinstalling?

Thanks ;)
[HD2 General] Palmchen:
a couple of programs are only installed in a subdirectory and linked from Startmenu to this folder.

No problem to move this subdirectory to the storage card and change the link in the startmenu. (using resco explorer, for example)

but if a program is using the windows-mobile-registry (or an own INI-File) you have to change all the items from this program - it's almost impossible ...

the best way - if you don't know how voluminous the program is - to deinstall the program and reinstall the program at storage card.
[HD2 General] umtcytgn:
Thanks, I could not think also copying shortcut to startmenu folder. My problem will be solved, most probably, at that time.

Edit: I installed resco explorer, but I could not find how to specify shortcut while in start menu? Can you please help?
[XPERIA X10 General] inzane19:
I am searching for a method to unlock the x10 but i can cat the right method.

For the unbrand method ( by flash another firmware ) i cant find the dutch rom.

At the other program i must by credits over a paypall acount but i dont have paypall and the unlock must be done as soon as possible.

So what is the best and the fastest way to unlock the x10i branded from HI in holland?

( sorry for my bad english but as you can see i am from holland )
[XPERIA X10 General] Palmke86:
You can unbrand it.

Unbranded dutch rom can be found here

But you should know that unbranding your device doesn't unlock it. So you still won't be able to use non-Hi/KPN sim-cards.

If you do want to unlock you can buy the unlock code from Hi, but that'll cost you €68,- i believe.
[XPERIA X10 General] olisun39:
I used unlocking.com and paid £19.99 and got my unlock code in approx 24hrs and it worked fine...
[XPERIA X10 General] inzane19:
I thought unbranding remove the simlock :mad:

I cannot contact HI about it becouse i dont have a HI number. I chance the x10 fore my vivaz pro and not the numbers.

The only way to unlock the x10 is to order a unlock code and wait for a couple of days?
[XPERIA X10 General] SWKB:
I used them - still waiting 10 days on....bad really bad..
[XPERIA X10 General] olisun39:
I haven't got any refund from TotalGSM.org... I sent a couple of reminders yet there has been no response from them...

EDIT: Got the refund today...
[XPERIA X10 General] biktor_gj:
After a week waiting for unlocking.com to get my unlock code, I got nervous and went to htccode.com for it. Surprisingly, this guy did it in 10 minutes, so I really recommend the service in there. A bit pricey (40$), but definitely worth it. Nice support, and really fast. Comparing it to a week of waiting and asking to support service what the hell was going on, it's definitely worth the price.

Regards!
[XPERIA X10 General] kitsVA:
I am trying to get unlock code for my new X10a (Rogers). I tried from ebay and again yesterday from http://www.cellunlocker.net/. Both took about a day each and sent message saying there is no unlock code for my IMEI. Do newer Roger phones take time to get unlock code? I am now worried. The phone is brand new and I opened it. It's clearly Rogers branded.
[XPERIA X10 General] cwepruk:
I was able to unlock my Rogers phone for $15 or so. I did it a month ago, so the fix is out there.
[XPERIA X10 General] kitsVA:
From which place?
[XPERIA X10 General] Waqas Ahmed:
My xperia x10 was locked to orange. I did a lot of research and like so many ppl i placed an order at unlocking com. After waiting for 8-10 days, they replied that the code couldnt be found. Out of options i tried htccode To be true i was a bit afraid by reading lot of bad stuff about htccode. But in the end it worked pretty well. During the whole process i was in touch with the support rep and effectively it took only 5-10 mins to complete the process. I know the price is a bit high 40USD but in my opinion it is worth spending.

PS: The views expressed in this post are of author's only. I am not advertising htccode neither do i have any affiliation with them.

Cheers!
[XPERIA X10 General] kitsVA:
I am not willing to spend over $10 :-). Anway, the Locked Rogers X10a I have right now is in Black and I really don't like it as much as I like my white X10i. So, ordered an unlocked White X10a this time and will sell my black X10a if I can't get it unlocked in a week or so. If I can get it to unlock I might just use it and give the white X10a to my wife.
[Networking] g00ey:
I have an iPAQ hx4700 that I have flashed with WM6.1 which I believe is one of Nguyens ROMs (PDAVIET). After applying a patch I have managed to get the network connection going; Opera and Skype works fine.

But I cannot get the network file sharing going. I have two other computers running on the network; One machine with XP-x64 and another one using OpenSolaris. When using Resco Explorer 2008 I can see both machines on the network but I cannot access any of the shares. Both computers' shares can be accessed from any other machine that use WinXP, Linux, OSOL and BSD but not from the PDA. Does anyone know what's wrong?

The OpenSolaris machine is set up to require a password for the shares whereas the other machine is not. The shares of the WinXP machines are listed in Resco File Explorer whereas the shares on the OpenSolaris machine are not. The password authentication fails consistently and I'm asked for password on the XP machine on the PDA which I'm not on other machines.
[General Accessories] dizzle118:
Quick question..... Does the phone come packaged with a 3.5mm headphone adapter mic cable? Or could confirm that a third party one works with it?

Something like http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-5mm-Headpho...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item3f01284f93

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001C0LBEG/smartphonespda-21

I basically would want this feature so I could then plug the input into my AUX input in the car, have MP3's playing, sat nav and make calls.

Or am I barking up the wrong tree? Does the handsfree plug in the the microUSB?

thanks in advance!
[General Accessories] esk02k:
I had the same adapter left over from an old phone and it didnt work with the desire, it would play quietly untill i pressed and held the button then it would come out at normal volume. It didnt answer the phone either. I just plug straight into my car headset with 3.5 to 3.5 jack. I can take calls as ive got a holder in the dash and it comes out throught the car speakers.

Hope this helps.
[General Accessories] dizzle118:
And what the mic on the handset still picks up the audio clear enough??

I looked at these http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/htc-hs-u350-p19269.htm & http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Headphone-Ear...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item41501064d7
[General Accessories] esk02k:
Yea it seems to come out alright. Ive asked my friends while speaking through the handset and they say it comes out ok. Youve gotta talk abit louder tho depending on outside noise. With the windows up its seems fine.

Im in the same boat as you, i was thinking the htc adapter was the most likely to work but not sure. Judging by the comments it looks like it will work.

Oh yea usual handsfrees for the desire plug in via the headphone jack.

You get one standard all in one handsfree and no adapter.

It is possible to have all that up and running, mp3's, sat nav and calls.

I do it daily, just get yourself an official car charger cos i got a cheap one and it blew up on me. I had blue sparks flying out while i was driving.

[Desire General] juanjo7812:
Hi!

I'm using DeFrost 1.8 and I think that my confusion will be same on any other FroYo ROM.

I know that DeFrost has Apps2SD buildin and cause it's a FroYo ROM, already have the FroYo-style Apps2SD.

I must confess that i don't care where my apps are installed. I just supose that are stored on SD card using old-Apps2SD method.

Now, I've installed App2SD from Market and show some apps that are on internal memory and some on SD card, but there are lot more apps that I have installed on my phone that don't show up on this app.

Now, I'm very confused with this.

When I install a new app from Market, in what location is installed ? Internal, SD card using App2SD-old or App2SD-FroYo ?

How can I select the default location for new installations ?

I have SpareParts from LeoFroyo and App2sd location is on 'Default'. This means internal memory or old-style App2SD or what ?

If my ROM has buildin old-style App2SD, I can suppose that 'default' means this method. Or not ?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Is your SD card setup for old-A2SD with an EXT3 partition? If not, then they'll either go on the internal memory or the SD card using FroYo-A2SD (although not all apps are installed to the SD card as the creator may not have updated them yet)
[Desire General] Daemon1978:
Another question:

I actually haven't any Ext3 partition and may applications already installed, some on internal memory and some with the froyo-a2sd on the sd card.

I would like to create an Ext3 partition. I was thinking about the following steps:

- backup the fat32 content of the sd

- create a 1Gb ext3 partition

- restore the content of the Fat32 partition to SD

The problem is:

I will probably lose all the applications installed on the internal memory

Is it right? How can I solve this? Do I have to move everything to the new partition?

Which directories do I have to copy on Ext3?

Is sufficient to backup everything with Titanium and the restore once the Ext3 has been created?

Another problem is:

I started the system with an Ext3 partition and I couldn't access any application I installed before. Is there a way to recover those applications?

Once I erased the Ext3 partition (without installing anything on it) the phone started a boot loop.

What if I create the Ext3 before installing the new rom?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Daemon
[Desire General] juanjo7812:
Yes, my SD card have an ext3 partition. So, the apps that don't appear at the App2SD applicaction, it's supposed that are on the ext3 partition ?

Then, why I have some apps in internal memory and other on FroYo-app2sd and the rest on ext3 part ?

I can't understand this.
