Guys, just wanted to share with you a small tip. After you have finished receiving new OTA - just do a complete wipe and start fresh.

After update, before doing a wipe - my battery would run out 70% by mid day.

After update and after doing a wipe - my battery lasted like 85% until 3pm...I also gained around 30mb in memory.

Thought this could help.

{my first post in Evo section - I come from HTC Touch running Android}

So I am fully rooted using toast method with NAND unlocked. I currently have fresh .5.3 flashed to my phone. I am having horrible battery results with this Rom. I never really seemed to have these issues with .3. I am using adw launcher as a replacement to stock, I don't have 4th in my area. I have about 30 apps installed. It seems like I am losing 1% every 5 with just basic browsing. My battery life has never been this bad, so I am confused..if anyone can give me any insight or advice that would be greatly appreciated

Thanks..

Check in the toast rom thread and post there, they are more likely to be able to help you.

I'm also running toast 5.3, just reflashed it yesterday and I noticed a significant battery reduction as well. I'm still waiting to see if it continues today or not.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzaku:
is there any tool to dump my HD2 stock ROM?

i don't want to change my ROM since i'm really satisfied with it, i only want to flash a newer radio (2.1 or up) in order to try to run the new android ports.

but i need it dumped in order to revert everything back the way it was if (for any reason) i had to send the phone to repair
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demon_man:
you can just hard reset the phone if all goes bad with the android builds, shouldnt though seem to be ok, just glitchy and not very smooth,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
as demon said, running android has no effect on the installed rom, you dont 'flash' android, it runs kind of like an app on top of windows, it dopesnt replace anything
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzaku:
yea i know how the android procedure goes, but i was talking about reverting to the old radio/SPL versions...any solutions?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
when you wanna revert,

flash your original radio then run hspl2 and choose your original stock spl. that's it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:
As said above, all you do is download the stock ROM and flash it , after removing HSPL, you don't need to "Backup" your stock ROM, all you need to do is either download it from one of the ROM threads here or from TMO ....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suzaku:
so...i can downgrade the radio without problems? then run HSPL2 to revert to the original SPL...many thanks! :)

so what about the ROM itself; even if i find and download it, how can revert to the original date? (settings tab/about phone/software information/ROM date) or what is that date?

another noob question :D what is TMO?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:
I love how people are stuck on HSPL2 ..... HSPL3 has been out for a while, you don't need to downgrade your radio ....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demon_man:
i still have 1.42 hspl lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:
Well, yeah , there is the occasional caveman, :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
dont forget the hspl version is excatly the same in 2 and 3, only the installer is different, AND for non tmous users to switch back and forth between hspl and stock spl, we need hspl2 anyway because hspl3 only has stock 2.08.0000 and none of our phones used that as stock.

hspl3 was only released because tmous users couldn't be trusted to not brick themselves, and telstra users couldnt use hspl2.

This is not a 'highest version is best' situation.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:
Yes that is true, all good points that I had not considered ...

i'm so new to android, i'm still wrinkly. :cool:

here's my 1st weak post.

i was traveling the other week using the Sprint Navigator. when i ran into a storm. i used - Radar Now - to let me look at the size of the storm to see if i wanted to stop driving or not. it was nice to see how big the storm was.

i did have 1 problem with Sprint Navigator. it would stop running from time to time. not sure if i was just kicked off ever 300 miles or not. signal was good each time i got kicked off. uhmmmmmm

please bear with me as i'm old (54) and and don't know crap.

Until a Froyo ROM comes out, where EVERYTHING works perfectly, I will wait to Root..If Froyo comes out soon, officially, then I probably wont bother..

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
Google Nav is good but I like to keep Sprint Nav around too. I have been in some locations (San Antonio for one) where the Sprint Nav worked much better.

For radar, I bought WeatherBug Elite and it has a radar widget. The free version may have it also.

I am 45 and not always the sharpest knife in the drawer but I learned Android pretty easily. Downloading androidSDK and learning to use ADB commands will get you 99% of the way there!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] evoflorida:
yes, i tried the Google Nav and liked it too. thanks.

Holy ****, I bought my	Evo at radio shack on launch day. I went to a different shack to see if the had any	Evo's to swap out with since I had really bad screen separation and my screen was so unresponsive. So they didn't have any but the girl did look in the computer to see if any other store did. She said the Carmel,IN store has 2. So I rush over there and looked at the 2 they had. And to my shocking eyes, they was trying to give me a used scratched Evo. There was an other lady in there buying the other one. When they tried too activate hers, it came up as esn already activated. I was link her omfg... So my girl asked best buy which is next door if they had any	Evo's and had 2 also, but they was brand new, so I canceled my line, got a refund from the shack and went next door.. Now I'm the proud owner of my new EVO :) will never do any business with radio shack ever again...
[EVO 4G General] johnjjschmidt:
Just because that particular store screwed up does not mean the majority are like that.
[EVO 4G General] theoner1:
True that. At first I had mix feelings about them but at the end they came through and were able swap me a new one. All in all you just have to find one that is helpful. Good luck to all.
[EVO 4G General] wraunch:
I for one went to the Shack on Friday in a small town near me and not only did I get one but somehow it was only $168 with tax!!!! WOOT WOOT!
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
Probably a return
[EVO 4G General] Luzer:
The sales guy at the Shack by us lied pretty bad about the Evo and accessories. I'll probably won't go back to the one by me till he is fired or quits. Not too bad of a store though.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
What he said?
[EVO 4G General] johnjjschmidt:

What exactly did he lie about, if you don't mind me asking?

This isn't the first time I've seen posts about Radioshack trying to sell used phones. Its happened before. People wonder why I refuse to shop there.
[EVO 4G General] marctronixx:
they sell used electronics so yeah, sure i can see them selling used handsets. ive seen stapled boxes of electronics many times.... no shock here.
[EVO 4G General] nonpointtruth:
Uhh.. I work for Radio Shack.. And know that, at our store, which sells close to 200 phones a month, does NOT sell used phones.. Remember, some businesses have shady managers.. I would contact that stores district manager.. Oh, and we'be sold over 70 Evo's since launch day, and only 2 or 3 swap outs.. And we're getting the replacements direct from HTC.
[EVO 4G General] johnjjschmidt:
That's too bad about the selling of used phones but from the three stores I have worked in we never sold used cell phones. As far as other stuff goes, if a returned product seems to be in proper order we do put it back on the shelf.
[EVO 4G General] Xenithflare:
Sometimes when a phone is returned, the associate/manager gets a little overzealous at losing a phone sale because they don't have any new ones in stock, and it's tempting to try to sell that returned one... trust me, it looks a little different from the other side of the counter. That said, not only is it not possible to sell a "used" Sprint phone, but it's against our policy anyway. The ESN doesn't clear from a cancelled account for a long period of time, so you'll rarely manage to get home with it in the first place. AT&T/T-Mobile phones, however... I'm sad to say that I'm not surprised people have sold them, but I would never, and have never, done such a thing or seen it done at any of the 6 stores I've worked at. Radioshack is also not the only company that's ever been accused of having this happen, BY FAR. :p

As for other products, yes, we do put returns back on the shelf, so long as they still work. I disprove of it on the grounds that it looks tacky, and we can't discount the price of the item... but, sometimes we don't have a choice. We certainly don't force people to buy the opened products :P
[EVO 4G General] Bp3dots:
I can't tell you how many times I've flat out told a customer that what they were about to buy would NOT work for what they were trying to do... but they dont listen to me, they go home, it doesn't work and they bring it back. And we're stuck reselling it opened. All because the jackhole refused to listen to the person who works at the store.

Or how many times people will just grab something and start to open it right there...then realize that it wasnt what they wanted. (Would've been faster to just READ the dang box instead of ripping it apart) And again, we're stuck reselling it.

When it's things like cables and connectors and whatnot, it's not a big deal, and most of the big stuff can be shipped out anyway. /shrug

On the upside, I once won $50 bucks off a customer when I bet him that what he was buying was wrong (he was a regular shopper, and a cool guy)

as for the OP, That's a pretty bad store to be reselling used phones. It's not even worth the hour it takes to get them activated right.
[EVO 4G General] Xenithflare:
Holy jesus, this is so full of truth I can't quote it hard enough. Every day, someone comes in for an ethernet splitter or some bunch of crap that we know won't work, and they insist on buying it anyway. Then, sure enough, back they come to return it. I especially hate when someone grabs say, a DC power plug from the parts drawer, even though you're telling them again and again that we don't have anything you can splice your laptop power cord with, and they look at you and ask if they can open it as they rip it open. It's like, NO YOU CAN'T OPEN IT, IT WON'T WORK. And then, they realize you're right, and now no one else will buy it because it's opened.

XD Sorry, had to rant. Today has been exactly that kind of day. But yeah; if we sent back everything anyone had ever opened, we'd barely have anything on our shelves. :P Phones; however, should never be resold. There're several reasons it's against our policy, privacy and quality control only being two parts of it.
[EVO 4G General] bwcorvus:
The radio shack by my house does in fact sell used evos (as new)...but they tell you they are used. I was at radio shack putting my wife on the list for evos when someone returned one, the person directly behind the return ask if she could buy it. The manager sold it to her, as a new phone. A few nights later we got a call from the same manager saying they just had a return (because of battery life) and ask us if we wanted to purchase it as a new phone.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
Dumb ****,smfh,u just saw it returned, she dumb.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
How's your returned resold evo,sir?
[EVO 4G General] Bp3dots:
If they tell you it's used, then they aren't selling it as "new."

not that they should be selling it anyway...
[EVO 4G General] Bp3dots:
The best are the ones that make you open something, verify that it works, and then try to buy a different, unopened one, of the same thing, because they dont want an already open one.

YOU MADE ME OPEN IT!!!! :mad:
[EVO 4G General] bwcorvus:
Guess it should read, at new price*
[EVO 4G General] michaelvibe:
I probably won't go back to radio shack or at least my local one. From the second I walked through the door the sales rep was trying to shove T-mobile down my throat. I made it very clear that I was there to look at an Evo, to which the the guy proceeded to tell me how bad Sprint service was and that T-mobile was really the best way to go.

In the end I had the guy run my credit for Sprint and find out how many phones I was eligible for. He also took the liberty of running my credit for T-mobile though I didn't really ask him to. He seemed really sad to find out that I didn't have to put a deposit down on either.
[EVO 4G General] akrod2as:
I would have been pretty pissed off that he ran my credit on something I didn't request. That does hurt your score.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
Wraunch,how is your returned resold to you evo holding up?
[EVO 4G General] Xenithflare:
I actually JUST had that happen to me... :mad: I flat-out told the guy, "Um, no, I opened this one for you, so I'll sell you this one." Then he proceeded to get pissy because I asked him for an ID with his credit card, cursed me out, and stormed away. :p Yay retail.

The only reason the phone is the same price is because Radioshack cannot change phone prices anymore. Too many employees were discounting phones, so any further discounts and it could (and probably will) lead to termination. So if YOU want to buy a phone that you KNOW is used, you still have the warranty and insurance options, but it's your choice. Radioshack; however, shouldn't be selling returned Sprint phones. As an employee, I advise that you contact the District Manager if you encounter this. It has to stop.

As for how you paid $168 for the EVO... You got me *shrug* If it was a preorder, you get a $20 credit, but that's ABSOLUTELY not allowed to discount the phone... whomever did that is probably having a nice chat with Loss Prevention right about now...

First off, I have an HTC Tattoo. I ran the update from the HTC website which updates the firmare. I assumed wrongly that HTC were finally updating from 1.6 to 2.1. I now have the updated Orange 1.6 installed in my Tattoo.

None of the rooting files or instructions work. I cannot roll back the firmware either and update............ I would really like to get 2.1 installed into my handset but I have tried for almost 1 week now with EVERY method I can find but still keep getting either no space errors or some other annoying text...........

I would appreciate any help with this. Please dont flame me or tell me to go and read another page on these forums about how to root my phone. I can assure you I have been on them all and I have read them all, and I do mean them ALL............... None of them work with this updated ROM image.

Firmware 1.6

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotten99:
Noobish question, I'm afraid:

I'm running Modaco's 3.2 rom with A2SD+ with an 8gb memory card. Previously, I had used a regular A2SD 3.2 rom.

I formatted my sd card to have 32 mb swap, and 512 mb for ext2 (which I immediately upgraded to ext3). How big should the dev cache be?

When I check the size of my card under settings, it shows 7 gb now.

I would understand 7.5, but 7 doesn't seem to make sense.

Did I miss a step in card formatting/reformatting, or is this normal?

TIA.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
if you have a 8 gig sd card, i doubt you had much more than 7.5 gig of space to start with, :confused: just cuz its an 8 gig card you only get about 7.6 gig of space on it you know
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Just to add, i would suggest that you do not use a swap and set it to 0 Mb. Your phone has 578 MB of RAM - a portion of this is used for running android OS and after the substraction for radio, GPU use, it still should be around 400MB. Using a swap size of 32 Mb would just slow down your phone.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilalqayum:
This might be of no relevance, esp. considering how SD cards often have slightly less than stated capacity, but just to note that using Linux deleting files off the SD card while connected via usb does -not- delete them, rather it appears that the file is deleted but space had not been freed up. You need to empty your waste basket/recycle bin to actually delete the file.

I've gotten used to this on ubuntu derived distros but may be true of linux in general perhaps.
