[EVO 4G Android Development] Bukem75:
I'm on fresh 0 5 3 and I've been running the OC / under V kernel with no bfs... Seems to run cooler when tethering... Only odd issue is on swype. I seem to get a few irregular movements while spelling. Then again, it could just be me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stillmatic:
Just downloaded Kernel 1.0 as it seemed the safest to me as well as the fact I'm running fresh rom 1.0 beta. Will report back findings!
[EVO 4G Android Development] axisofoil:
For all the people having trouble with BFS... just restart your phone a couple times, leaving it ON for a few minutes in between. It seems to take a bit longer to start, but will become much better afterwards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
Fresh Toast worked great for me and was very fast and stable; however, my battery seemed to really run down fast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alator20:
help pls

anyone know why is getting stuck at the white htc evo screen after doina download off of fresh updated

im on 5.3 and was trying to load kernek with bfs and fps unlocked v2 #26

any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
try wiping your davlik cache
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
I'm witnessing the same issue. Might go back to ffolkes for the time being.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
My battery is great on these kernels. Might I suggest setcpu and unclocking when your screen is off? Not too much, because then you get lag at unlock from low clock speeds, but I scale my cpu from 245 to 526 when the screen is off and get 20-22 hours with decent usage.
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
I have mine UC at screen off at 245-245. That's not the issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Hmm I dunno then. I have screenshots (somewhere:confused:) of 22 hours on this rom, so I don't know what the difference could be. 22 hours to me seems very fair.

This is with JIT, but I don't see that making any difference
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
I'm assuming that the Kernel #26 has the JIT feature you speak off?! That's the Kernel that I have been using. The phone idled last night until dead in 6 hours. That's crazy!

I don't have anything other than my Gmail/Mail/and Sense syncing. Have it UC when screen off. Don't know what it could be.

Did you have to use Evo Switch to tweak yours? If so, what settings did u change?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
None of those kernels contain JIT. You can find a link to the one I use in my sig. I don't use the evo switch either. Check your phone info for cpu usage and wake times
[EVO 4G Android Development] krazyflipj:
I can't get passed the white screen as well. I even wiped my davlik cache. Still not working. I'm running newest Fresh rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
What recovery are you guys using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] krazyflipj:
It says RA-evo-v1.7.0.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Do you notice any sig difference with JIT on Eclair? If so, how much in performance, battery life?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Its snappier yes. As for battery life, I don't know. I don't really like a compiler would have much effect on battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Doesn't JIT and BFS basically do the same function?! Why have both?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Wiki them. Jit is a compiler. Bfs is a scheduler.
[EVO 4G Android Development] n3x1s:
Call me slow, but I just found out today that the freshtoast-bfs-uv-oc-fps2 kernel has the tun.ko module for EVO in it (The others may as well, but I havent tested those). So now my VPN works!! The connection works great. Basically just like VPN on my laptop, except for a few management web interfaces like SAN-HQ, Dell iDRAC KVM, VMWare do not work. But all of that is due to browser/flash support on the EVO. And with wireless tether, I can use the Cisco VPN client on my laptop to manage those in an emergency. SSH and SSH2 to servers/routers/switches/firewalls works great over the VPN tunnel.

I'm using VPN Connections from http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/.

The only issue I've found so far is that when you close the VPN tunnel, the DNS servers do not update properly. I've found that turning off your WiFi then turning it back on will fix it without a reboot. If you are using the cellular network for internet access, you can open a terminal window and reset your DNS server IP addresses with the following commands:

# setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
# setprop net.dns2 8.8.4.4

This will set your DNS servers to the ones operated by google.

**EDIT**

The next thing I would like to test is to bring up the VPN tunnel on my EVO, then turn on WiFi Tether and see if my laptop will connect to devices across the tunnel. . . :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] oubravs2b:
Tried as well. No-go. Was using the 3.6.4 version Kernel from here to start. Always get stuck on white screen no matter if I wipe davlik or not. Have to pull battery and go back to 3.6.4 to boot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saipoob:
Any chance this kernel will get updated with netarchy's panel fix code? I'm on a Novatek that isn't being helped by the older ffolkes version; Evo Switch always resets on me when the screen goes off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MCL1981:
Just upgraded to Fresh 1.0.1 and the Fresh Toast #26 kernel. No wipes, no problems. Everything works great.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FAndroidHTC:
anyone else having trouble downloading the kernel through fresh updater? everytime i try downloading from wifi or 3g it says error unable to download the file from any mirror
[EVO 4G Android Development] lawsonmh15:
Can't download from any mirrors... using clockwork recovery 2.5.0.1. do I need to flash to ra 1.8 for it to download through the updater?
[Desire General] livewires:
I am getting a Desire tomorrow i was just reading some last reviews until I realised how badly Orange have messed up their Rom's. I am sticking with orange as they have amazing reception around where I live and Orange Wednesdays are for the win. Orange HD should also come out soon as well. I found a deal unlimited internet, unlimited texts, 500 mins and a free desire for £27.99 a month (18 month) from phones for you. I am not getting a Phone ruined by Orange as Ive heard a lot of user are getting problems after de-branding plus warranty is gone, and I have a poor track record of lasting the full contact with a fully intact phone.

So my question is, are Phones For You phones branded?

and if they are what stores can sell me a desire on a Orange contract un-branded ( I cant afford sim-free)

P.S Any other Desire rivals I should look at as well cant think of any ( Didn't want Galaxy s)
[Desire General] rowanparker:
I bought an Orange branded Desire from Phones 4U. I unbranded (whilst rooting) and it was smooth. Only issue is certain radio's seem to stop my GPS working (and it SIMLOCK's your phone when you update a radio).
[Desire General] steve228uk:
I'm on a similar deal through phones for you but with less minutes for £25 and yep, Phones4U brand all their phones but as Rowan said it's pretty easy to unbrand.
[Desire General] HCDR.Jacob:
Try carphone warehouse. They usually sell unbranded phones.

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App on my HTC Tattoo
[Desire General] malvern_man:
I got my unbranded Desire from mobiles.co.uk ( they are part of the carphone warehouse group )

I think their best deals are based on 24 month contracts though, anyway have a look.
[Desire General] livewires:
Thanks for all the replies Very helpfull ill have a look at mobiles.co.uk and car phone warehouse but yer even through its easy if im stuck with a phone for 18 months and and paying a lot of money for it i would rather the phone be issue less and working perfectly. Anyway i may not reply to anyone for a while time to put my mind at ease with a BBQ ill reply when i buy my phone in case that helps out anyone else as well
[Desire General] benman27:
You could try speaking to carphone warehouse, tell the them offer you got in phones for you and ask if they can match it with an unbranded handet.
[Desire General] sbdags:
I got my desire from fones4u and it was unbranded but on vodafone.
[Desire General] VeeDubZ:
you can re-brand it if it needs to go for repair, unless the phone is completely efed up then the branding isnt an issue as it will just be replaced
[Desire General] rowanparker:
You can't as there are no Orange ROMs available yet.
[Desire General] bongobill:
I am on Orange and have rooted to the Monaco custom Rom 3.1 and have had no problems with network or gps.

As to re-installing the Orange ROM, I have never been able to find it anywhere on the net or in any forums.

I dropped my original desire and smashed the screen and had to return the phone for repair, so I had to install the European generic Rom on it. Orange never said anything about it, I guess because it was returned as an insurance claim and not a warranty.

I hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdragon75:
I might be getting an EVO 4G as a warranty replacement for my hero and I live in Milwaukee, WI with no 4G service.

I need to know if anything on the evo goes out and says its a 4g phone other than imei/esn. If so what and can it be disabled or blocked?

Im sorry if this is way out of line. I just trying to gather information at this point.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Burst_:
Lol

As soon as you turn it on, Sprint makes sure you know it's 4G.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebu:
nothing illegal about this thread, they just wont give u an EVO 4G as a warranty replacement, they will give you another hero.

the back cover says 4G, the bootscreen says 4G, the OS says 4G, what does it matter? If you dont have it you dont have it why do you need to hide it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novanosis85:
The premium charge is not because of 4G.

The charge is to remove the 5BG cap!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robtrevino:
AFAIK Data has never been capped
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alanmw86:
Not possible, the ESN is tied to the mainboard and its in sprints system.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
yes it has, read the small print every god damn cell phone providers have caps on their unlimited data plans sprints has 5 gb's. If you went over you limit with sprint in the past, they did not complain to no one uses them so they don't call to ***** at their few subscibers
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdragon75:
I'm not concerned with the esn. I would only want to disabled the 4g part of the phone. I don't want it to phone home and say I'm an evolution 4g give me 4g.

Ill talk to my stores sprint Rep to see if there's any ligit way around this required $10 fee.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veritas06:
Good luck. If you take a look around the forums though, you'll see there have been plenty of people trying to get around the fee, & as far as i know, no one has been successful. If it goes any differently, let us know!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViViDboarder:
7 Posts and you're already policing the forums?

Someone asking if things are possible is very different than asking about changing an IMEI number.

Your IMEI number is how the carrier recognizes what phone you have. In theory... if you changed that to match your Hero's number then they'd think it was your hero. That is presuming you never turned on your 4G.

The only issue is that I believe it is illegal in the US to spoof your IMEI number. This is a measure taken to allow carriers to block stolen phones from their networks. Makes sense. More info on IMEI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Mobile_Equipment_Identity

So sorry, you're going to be out of luck.

^^ And that's how you answer an OP's question, stay legal, and avoid being a ****. ;)

Driving me mad now dont know why someone cant just have a simple thread. Want to know after we have updated to HTCS latest Orange firmware which alloys us to use unlocking codes how do I unlock? As in where do I get the codes from? Anyone recommend anything?

No unlocking whatsoever in the HTC stock ROM.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecrater:
Hi, I cooked my own ROM using "osKitchen v1.25". I started initially by removing extraneous files such as the sample media and photos as well as some wallpaper etc. The final cooked ROM worked perfectly however, I noticed that my cooked ROM seems less fast and less responsive than the stock ROM even though is entirely based on it.

I experimented to make sure that I wasn't being paranoid so I flashed back T-Mobile's stock ROM and confirmed this. I did not, however, use any kind of benchmarking tools so it is not strictly scientific but I am confident that it is slower.

Since experimenting with minor modifications like removing extraneous files, I have made a lot of modifications to my ROM that I cannot go back to T-Mobile's ROM but I was wondering if there is something in the kitchens or some missing optimization that is only available in stock ROMs. I am curious if anyone else has experienced this as well.

Many thanks in advance,
[HD2 General] Fabian1985:
Why o why?

The specs are good, so why can't we all get offically the wm7 upgrade?

I know there will be custom roms but no offence to the developpers, they are all ****ty. Every custom rom I had I need to hard reset my device every two weeks so that won't be a option for me anymore.

MICROSOFT PLEASE DON'T BE STUPID!!!!

Why does windows mobile 7 not on the HD2?

Greetz,

Fabian1985
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Specs are good, but hardware requirements are not met by the HD2, now what does that mean, well it means that HTC did not look ahead, and used the wrong button configuration on the phone, so it is outside the spec of what MS says is required for WP7.

So yes we are Officially screwed out of WP7 because of the buttons on our phones .....

I doubt MS is going to change their requirements for the very few existing WinMo phones that have the CPU and RAM to handle WP7.
[HD2 General] chuck232:
The hard resetting you have to do every couple weeks may have more to do with WinMo 6.5.x than the fact that it's a custom ROM. I'm sure we'll get near-stock WP7 ROMs that will function much better than what we currently have. Don't lament before we even have anything on that front.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
I don't think wp7 will even be a viable option for most of us anyways (at least the initial release). Very locked down, sounds a lot like the first iphone. I'm hoping they update quickly and open it up (at least every 2-3 months), but I wouldn't hold my breath.

That is why I decided to take the plunge with the hd2. Figured it would be a couple of years before I was ready to jump on wp7. (though that 1.5ghz snapdragon htc sounds interesting and apparently is coming to t-mobile...)
[HD2 General] Fabian1985:
Ow is it? Cuz now I still work with my HTC Raph100 with those custom roms I talked about. I'm hoping to unbox my Leo begin this week.

So are the roms better now for the Leo?

Greetz,

[HD2 General] kabuk1:
im still trying to work out why anyone would WANT wp7 on their hd2. itd be like putting Windows 1.0 on an Alienware pc. im sure there will be custom roms if you wanna have a glorified Instinct, but just cause something is new doesnt mean its better. why would you want to cripple this powerhouse phone with that dumbed-down software? doyou actually WANT to be able to do less with it???
[HD2 General] Fabian1985:
The reason I want to have It Is this:

I read that Windows Mobile 6.5 is based on all the old previous versions, based on CE blabla (I don't know It exactly anymore) so there Is alot of old junk that is not needed anymore.

The new Winmo 7 is totally new so therefore It should be allot faster then all the previous versions.

Please tell me If I'm wrong..

Greetz,

[HD2 General] chuck232:
For me, tinkering is fun, but that is not the main function of my work device. I want it to work, and work well. If that means giving up a couple features, features which I can live without, then I'll play ball. WP7 has been built from the ground up with a very different goal than Windows Mobile, which had the original goal of bringing the PC to a PDA format. I don't need that, and the functionality that is associated with that goal gets in the way of usability for my purposes. If your use cases do not match up with what WP7 is capable of, so be it, but know that the vast majority of customers aren't tinkerers and tweakers.
[HD2 General] Moandal:
"alot of old junk" in WM 6.5? Oh yes - like copy & paste, and proper multitasking? If you think that's junk, you'll love WP7.

iPhone OS v1 was rubbish. v4 finally has most of what you actually need and what WM has had for years. Same with Android - the first versions were severly lacking in many areas. Only now is it coming into it's own at v2.2.

Anyone should be able to see that since it's a completely new OS, WP7 will be equally as rubbish as the iPhone and Android offerings were at initial release.
[HD2 General] drownage:
yes, BUT WM still misses a lot of stuff such as gfx libs for better programs...

like ballmer says... they need to lure Developers Developers Developers somehow...

iPhone is #1 because of apps... WM is last only because of apps... and WM7 is taking sooo long because MS's management SUCKS... they seriously need to hire someone better to get thier mobile dept straightened... look at kin... what it could have been if only those devs were still part of wp7...
[HD2 General] chuck232:
They put in Terry Myerson a bit more than a year ago, but thanks anyways for the un-researched comment. He's been spearheading the reset efforts in WP7. Some like him, some don't. I'll reserve and judgment until WP7 is launched and tested in the market.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
This is a stupid and pointless thread. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] eenbox:
Be patient and wait for WM Phone 7 to come out! Once it's out you / HD2 will get the chance.
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Well, yes it is now, did not start out that way, but a discussion is one thing ...

But when people have convinced themselves of something , and just want to argue the point it is no longer a discussion ...

1.) HD2 Specs are great, but HTC did not adhere to What MS has released as specs for WP7, so HTC screwed us out of an Official WP7.

2.) MS specs for WP7 were released(but not to the public) before the HD2 was , so MS is not inclined or obligated to change their specs to fit the HD2

3.) We actually have 1 too many buttons on the HD2 but None of them are the almighty "Search" button, so again the HD2 is outside the spec so no official WP7.
[HD2 General] chuck232:
Actually, the Euro version of the HD2 was released before the announcement of WP7. Still, I'm not sure if HTC was made aware of the requirements by the time they were already far along in the design of the HD2.
[HD2 General] watcher64:
I had heard about the 3 button some time early last year, but you are right that may have been after the design and during the production phase of the HD2.

MS did not make an Official release of the specs till I think January of this year, I think that is when it was.

Either way , you can blame HTC, you can blame MS, but, it is true for any piece of technology, CPU's that keep changing sockets, Video Cards that keep changing standards, DVD/Blu-Ray standards the list goes, on ...

I mean providers are not going to change what they decide to to with regards to their specs and requirements just because people scream, I mean why can't I run Iphone OS on my HD2(not that I want to ), because it is not compatible, even though the HD2 out powers most Iphones, and just because Apple says NO.

I suggest, instead of getting all up in arms here, and bashing people for their views you contact MS and HTC and complain to them, not that it will get you anywhere, just as posting here is just gonna start a big discussion, but not fix it anyway.
[HD2 General] drownage:
Yes, sorry I meant more like management a while ago... 1 year ago is still much after iPhone released... they should have done something like WP7 from the beginning and if management wasn't an issue, I doubt we would see two different teams for mobile in the first place: Kin and WP7... I do agree however, management is seeming much better now...

EDIT: also, for hardware keys, all we're missing is the search button... since wp7 will have windows button go to the tiles screen which is also the home, we can map the home screen to search (Kind of implying home page aka bing/search)? If they wanted MS could have easily added official support, but i am sure HTC influenced them to do that... since that would mean HD3 sales for them... ahh if only i were rich :-/...
[HD2 General] watcher64:
True, and I am sure some of the smart guys here will do just that for our custom WP7 ...
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
sorry, but i think verizon killed kin more than microsoft did. Kin had a lot of good ideas, but you can't justify a 30.00/mo data plan on a dumbphone (same reason I can't see getting my kid a sidekick, I got him the hd2 for 50.00 since the data plan price was the same).

You mean you are at the boot logo or stuck at the bootloader?

If you are stuck at the boot logo try a hard reset. If that doesn't work try flashing a new rom.

Hmm, I did try and track myself on the bus this morning and it did seem to have a problem finding me - it kept flipping between near where I was and about halfway back home.

I've enabled location via cell location as well as GPS, so I'll see if that makes much difference.
