[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
Today when I pulled up my camera I noticed a bright spot. I held my finger over the camera to make the screen entirely black and counted 6 dead/frozen pixels shining bright white. I had a few on my hero that didnt seem to bother me, but 6 already seems a bit excessive for a brand new device. What do you guys think? Exchange? Anyone else have this problem. I am still within my 30 days..

If its widespread I will keep it. No use swapping to a device with the same problem. So how many of you have them and would you consider an exchange for that reason?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
I havent found any on mine yet but normally one or two wont bother me too much. Six is way too many though, I would definitely take it back
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Albaholic:
I would definitely try to exchange it if mine had six dead pixels
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
I had ONE dead pixel on my Hero which never bothered me.

If I had 6 dead pixels on this $450 EVO I would not hesitate to have it replaced.

I vote take it back and get another.

But before you do, just for poops and giggles, write down the specs of the phone you have (002 or 003? Nova or Epson? etc.) just to see if there are any noticeable differences. Someone said recently that their 003 Novatec had a purple hue that they didnt notice until they got their replacement. I have a 003 Novatec and I compared it to my g/f's Hero and they look pretty similar, I don't really notice a purple hue but maybe I would if I compared it to an Epson.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
Ive got HW3 which I have compared to the HW2 my buddies got and notice no differences. Hopefully best buy gets more in stock before my 30 days is up !

I was thinking about requesting a white one, expecting it might be a new build. But after seeing an unboxing, they are HW03 as well
[EVO 4G General] Zexell:
What speeds are you guys getting when transferring files via USB

It seems that my evo and my PC transfer files at 3-4mb/sec max.

I've the the stock 8gb SD card, stock HTC microUSB cable.

The same USB port transfers to my external and my htc diamond at 20-30mb/sec.

Any suggestions/advice/solutions are appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] Zexell:
Some people were telling me its because the microsd is a class 2, but I find that hard to believe.
[EVO 4G General] michaelvibe:
I would blame the SD card. HTC probably threw the cheapest cards in there that they could and those are probably class 2 cards. That being said, I don't mind the slow speed, don't move files around on there to often.
[EVO 4G General] Chopper64:
Seriously? I think you may want to try a different computer or SD card...my evo is screaming fast on USB transfers, I'd say faster than any other USB device I have. Hopefully HTC didn't buy their SD cards from shady suppliers...i'd hate to think that anyone got fake cards with their EVO.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
The stock Micro SDHC card is in fact a Samsung Class 2 8GB Micro SDHC card. Class 2 defines a minimal write-speed of 2Megabytes/second.

What the hell kind of card/hard drive does your other phone have? :eek:
[EVO 4G General] gx1400:
Doubt they are fake, just cheap cards. Welcome to the world of consumer electronics. An 8GB card is a selling point, but not necessarily a good cost opportunity.
[EVO 4G General] michaelvibe:
The stock SD card just isn't that great lol
[EVO 4G General] Zexell:
The CDMA Diamond has a 4gb internal, so who knows. That thing was pretty quick so I was expecting the same for the evo.

So even with a great quality microsd, the fastest it can transfer is 8-12mb/sec?
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
Probably a bit more, but remember how compact the card is.

All the time i have to restart the phone and it takes lot of time too.... am really mad about this and all my works get stuck because of this...

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] thesmoth:
I was planning on rooting a new (but used) HTC magic I will be buying tomorrow (Rogers canada) and installing the supereclair rom from cyanogen (5.0.8), but I saw a video with the droid eris sense 2.1 rom running on an HTC magic. The sense interface looks nice.

Is there a way to install both? Do I install the cyanogen 5.0.8 supereclair rom, and then is the droid eris sense interface something I can install on top of it and turn on/off?

I've been searching for this but have yet to find anything other than video's showing it running.

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
So in other words you want to switch between CM 5.0.8 and a Sense UI rom?

The only way that you can do it is by using a custom recovery such as amon_ra 1.7.0 and do a nandroid backup, wipe EVERYTHING (and I do mean everything), install the other rom, do a nandroid backup of the other rom, then do a nandroid restore of the previous rom to go back. There is no easier way and it can be risky because if anything interrupts the process it could mess something up. If your sdcard becomes corrupted then everything is lost. My advice? Find one that you like and stick with it. But what do I know? :rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] thesmoth:
The cyanogen mod should run faster and more smooth than the sense UI, is that correct?

I'll probably just stick with cyanogen and wait until CM6 comes out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
That is correct as long as you do not use swap.

IIRC he was in a contract dispute with SONY, and changed his name to be a HUGE pain in their ass. All his contracts needed to have his legal name on them.

hello all, i am looking to make a few simple mods to my phone, nothing too tricky. i am offering to pay someone who can assist me, if youre interested or know someone who could, please leave a reply or PM me.

what i would like done:

i would like the battery threshold to be removed, and by this i mean the warning that pops up when your battery dips low, it prevents you from using the camera, music player, ect. from what ive read it could possibly be done by changing ACTION_BATTERY_LOW to ACTION_BATTERY_OKAY, if this is really all it will take, it seems like a very simple fix.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] hernit:
I just got this phone yesterday (Optus Australia - unlock), and encountering problems with it. However I seem to see some solutions appearing on various unofficial channels, and with different firmwares without a changelog, so I think I'll start listing my problems here in this thread, more as a record, and see if future updates will correct them.

My current problems:

7-Jul-2010

Firmware: 2.1-update1

Baseband: I9000DTJF3

Kernel: 2.6.29 root SE-S604#2

PDA: DTJF3

Phone: DTJF3

CSC: OPSJF1

1) wifi turning itself back on when an application needs some location data, even when it's turned off. This kills my 3G data.

2) GPS location and lock is very inaccurate

3) Gyro seems wrong

4) Camera function disabled during low battery, it really shouldn't do that

5) UI lag - I don't use multitasking that much, but I do see some black screen, not too annoying yet.

6) Locking up during file transfer - was transferring some big files to the microsd and the phone just wouldn't wake up
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Evans_Prophet:
I have exactly the same problems and same firmware version. Let's hope it is a matter of firmware and some defective chip.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] leekslk:
**EDIT** Nevermind I found a way to theme the milestone like a DroidX @ android-hlife **EDIT**

Hi guys,

I suppose everyone knows about the Droid X dump circulating around.

Is it possible to install the MediaGallery.apk from Droid X? I've tried doing the "normal" install from the .apk but it fails.

Putting the .apk file in /system/app with rw and installing yields similar results.

When I looked at the frameworks (of X's system dump), I don't see any com.motorola.aui.jar files (assuming it works the same way as before) hence i did not dare to move any other files.

I'm not brave enough.

Any advice on what should be right way to do it? (assuming the Gallery is actually different and worth the "upgrade")

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vapaus00:
So I had my G1 for a day and I decided to root it and put a custom rom in it; I am used to the way you do it on windows mobile so I found this pretty tricky and I did something wrong from a tutorial : I first installed Danger-spl without radio. So I wanted to know if there is anyway to force it to enter recovery mode ( it can't with the key combinations ) or I heard about the ORT and some other tools that could fix it. Could anyone clear things up a bit? Thank you in advance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tony_SpaZ:
Nope, you have the famous Danger SPL brick. The issue is an incompatibility with the radio, recovery and SPL. Basically, it has a recovery boot flag that can't be erased, but the recovery can't boot.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bzerk1:
Yep thats the reason they call it danger spl.

i forgot exactly, but i remember reading some where on forums that if you have a second G1 you can revive yours transfering some hardware, so you might get a cheap fix if you buy a g1 with broken screen or something.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnibravo:
In the instructions it says the following;

"DO NOT SKIP THIS NEXT STEP OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE

You must have the latest radio "2_22_19_26I" or "2_22_23_02" to flash this SPL if you already have the latest radio you should not have to flash it again but it will not hurt if you do flash it again. When in doubt flash it anyway. "

I found that in the four or five times I have rooted phones I have always had Radio 2.22.12.26I, so I once decieded I didnt need to flash and subsiquently flashed and BRICKED my phone.

Always flash radio before spl regardless of whether you think you have the latest radio or not.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vapaus00:
G1 Bricked

Okay so I can't fix it the easy way, before switching parts, what about the ORT?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tony_SpaZ:
Never heard of it, only fix I know without replacing parts is JTAG, which involves ~$50 of equipment and soldering to the motherboard.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akivlin:
I also did the exact same brick on first day I got my G1. I know the feeling it's the worst. :(

I took a month learning about the JTAG method and buying the parts in stages (G1 JTAG adapter shipped from Poland so took a while). Eventually I built it and I was able to successfully unbrick my G1.

It cost ~£135 to buy all the bits but I was determined to do it regardless of the cost.

There are a few on here with G1 JTAG for unbricking so maybe one who is relatively near you can help you out?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akivlin:
No soldering to the motherboard is required when using the G1 JTAG adapter.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tony_SpaZ:
Ah, my bad. Did little more than glance at the wiki.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnibravo:
I believe that they have identified the jtag points but as yet I dont think anyone has found a way to do it yet. Search for (de-bricking dreams) on here.

I think if you live in America there is a place you can try, they say there is a 80% chance of debricking, however, to do it yourself you would need the equiptment and that would cost you more than the phone is worth.

You best bet is to buy a donor g1 from ebay and replace the mainboard that cost me about £40 to do.

You could also try sending it back to t-mo and hope they just repair it, thats what happened to me and I ended up with a phone with a crack screen as a spare. Sorry for your loss I was gutted when it happened to me

I have an older chinese GPS receiver where I wanted to change the link in menu and replaces file ResidentFlash/mobilenavigator/mobilenavigator.exe with mort script. The original file is in the same folder but with the name mobilenavigator_old.exe After reset I see boot loader going without any errors then see sand clock sign, and then black screen with nothing on it but it's responding on clicks with the sound. No ActiveSync connection with the device, however PC "feels" the USB device and recognizes it as "SEC S3C2410X Test B/D". Installing SECdriver doesn help, no connection. Placing various files and folders on SD doesnt help, I tried 2577/Autorun.exe , shell.ini , YFGo2CE.bld , neither of those help. There is original folder on SD called mobilenavigator and there is original path mobilenavigator/2577/Autorun.exe but nothing works.

The device itself looks exactly thike this one: http://www.100-gift.com/custom_product/2/2516-4/GPS-Navigation35-Inch-H035-301096.html The processor ARM926M 266MHz, Pictures of menus taken from another forum are here: http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/5398/oldg750.jpg and here: http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/1070/gps.jpg Any help would be very appreciated, I need to fix this animal as soon as possible.

SOLUTION:The device called Menq v350 (too long to explain how I found it out) or it's twin called BluePanther v350. The BluePanther has firmware on the web here: http://pdaplus.hu/content/view/4276/1/ I removed BOOT loader from firmware to make safer upgrade and upgraded the device. Now it works great.

Hello brack11,

Thanks to your posting, I can now identify my chinese pna.

I would be most obliged if you could share how you removed the BOOT loader from the firmware.

Also my unit is running Win CE 4.2. I have no problems loading iGO 8, Amigo and Primo. However loading Garmin still eludes me till today. I understand from other forums that it would be a whole lot easier if the device was running Win CE 5. Any chance you think of flashing this chinese pna to WinCE 5?

Hope to hear from you soon, regards.

If your unit has wince version lower than 5 then yours must be different from described, what serial number or product code you have there?
[General Topics] hashima:
Thanks for the quick reply, brack11,

There are two sets of numbers on the back cover:

1. Below the barcode: 0420080006

2. Another sticker with: KW-GM3505A080300414

Googling Bluepanther V350 and Menq V350, I did notice that some specs showed with Win CE 4.2 loaded whilst some come with WinCE 5.0. I suspect therefore that there might be a possibility that different WinCE versions may have been loaded at different time of manufacture. This I am hoping gives me the possibility of upgrading to WinCE 5.0.

Anyhow, while looking at the registry, I stumbled on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\OEM with values: Platform "SINCHUN" and OEM "SG-N350G"

Googling SG-N350G also confirmed that my unit appears identical to the images you posted.

What do you think? Regards.
