1. Sign up for google voice,

2. setup conditional call forwarding on your voicemail

3. enjoy transcribed text and better recording quality
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjr19:
I was trying to figure this out.. What's the easy to set up forwarding to google voice?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
Go to settings in google voice then voice settings you should see your mobile number and a link to enable google voicemail on this phone.

Basically you're going to dial *28XXXXXXXXXX which is your phone number.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
I had this exact problem when I ported my old number to my Evo. I went to a Sprint store and they called CS, and I watched the keystrokes the rep did so I'd know what he did. I think the code for this is different for everybody. I just realized today that when CS did this for me, the rep dialed ##xxxxxx# where xxxxxx was actually my MSL code (just looked it up today and it looked familiar, now I know why).

So enter your own MSL and you should get what you need.
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
is there any way to get my evo to tether to my Zune HD, I'm currently fully rooted and running baked snack v .8, planning on upgrading to v .9 when I get time. I just want to download songs on the go with my Zune, but when I use wirelesstether, no wifi hotspot is detected from my zune, yet it works with my laptop? Is this because the evo is being an ad-hoc network or something? or is it in AP-mode? Idk how to get my zune to see the evo at all...
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
Yeah i would like that too
[EVO 4G General] Borman18:
Have you tried using the latest beta of Wireless Tether? It works differently than the one on the stable version
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
how/where do I get the beta version?
[EVO 4G General] paintcan:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...?name=wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre2.apk&can=2&q=

Also just checked it with my Zune HD and seems to work fine.
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
Yup, works here too! Thanks!

Zune marketplace mobile FTW!
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
Requires root I suppose.
[EVO 4G General] Borman18:
Glad I could help :P And yeah, root required for Wireless Tether
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
Did not work for me
[EVO 4G General] HseloMein:
I ran into this same problem, part of the problem is the way wireless tether works (stable) and the way the Zune Works. Zunes do not connect to Ad-hoc networks, which is created when you use Wireless tether. Since im paying for wireless tether through sprint hotspot, i use that tool it creates a AP Network which the Zune will connect to. I did read that Wireless Tether will now have the ability to create an AP network, which will fix those issues.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
The newest Wireless Tether works in infrastructure mode. My zune paired with my EVO just fine. I'm not rooted now though.

Also Wireless Tether is available in the market now too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjdean:
To anybody who's seen all the bits of firmware and pre-baked stuff or know of who and what to ask, Im curious.

Have you seen anything in the Samsung Galaxy S files which stops it from using satellites which have a 20 or less signal strength?

This can't be a hardware error, this IMHO is a bug, whether in the driver or elsewhere.

Im curious to see if anyone sees anything like this in the GPS modules for the Galaxy S.

I'd flash tomorrow (if I had my phone) and the software got this to work.

I suspect as well, the fact that the thing never uses more than 8 satellites is also problematic in that it's not impossible to go through a dark area on one side and suddenly lose lock because the phone won't lock onto a couple of other minor satellites.

I've had a quick look through the released Samsung Driver code, but, gah, none of it seems to say "Hello, Im the GPS driver"
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyxerakias:
It doesn't look like the lower-than-20 thing is fixed, only that the signal stays more stable. I wonder too why Samsung did this, and if they will fix it in a major update...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sheharyar:
I have Verizon version of Touch Pro2, have few questions.

1. I have installed Mighty Rom after doing Hard SPL, but didnt upgrade Radio. Do I need to upgrade Radio? My current Radio Version is 1.88.07WV

2. How do I change the contact view? Currently they appear as Last Name, First Name. How do I change it to First Name, Last Name.

3. Does FM Radio work on Verizon version?

I may sound n00b but please help me :) :confused: :o
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] PRBajista:
To answer your questions in the order asked....

1) No you do not have to upgrade your radio...I didn't and have been flashing roms for over a year on the TP2 with no issues.

2) Use trinfix. It removes duplicate contacts and other items, but it also has an option to change the contact view to "First Name, Last Name" (Cab is attached)

Make sure that you have the “.NET 3.5 CF” on your mobile phone.

3) The answer is absolutely not. The radio hardware is not there on the Verizon Touch Pro 2.

Hope this helps.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sheharyar:
hey thanks a lot. i have fixed the contacts view issue n thanks for the other issues as well.

Hi there.

Ever since the new 2.1 sense updates, its seems like the bottom of my screen is very unresponsive, like the launcher bar of sense to open the app drawer/phone/add etc, wont work... but mostly on the home screens, once an app is opened it seems to work better.

Anyone knows what might be happening? if there is something i can do?

=( thank u!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sublue:
Do you got the original OTA update? or have you installed a custom ROM?

and, your hero seems to show it's first sign of "bottom of the screen has stopped working" sickness. :p

I had the same problem... i noticed it after some romflash...

but it didnt helped to flash another rom, the problem was still there...

then i found some other guys had the same problem and they had their screen changed... i tryed to find a software solution but there was no.

It worked if i touched the top of screen at the same time

i mean just under the HTC logo, just about 1 mm... something like that...

then it worked perfect...

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaptyc:
Hey gang,

I am trying to create a script (using GScript Lite) that will preview the boot animation currently loaded. I am running 2.1 leak v3 and don't have root yet. I made a script with only one line like this: "adb shell bootanimation" and saved it. When I try to run the script I get the "permission denied" error. I guess I need root to run the command locally on the phone. Odd though.... because I can run the command from my computer connected via USB and it works just fine. Can anyone explain why its not working locally when I run the script? Surely it does not trigger root access when running this command from a computer.... does it?

Curious....

Also, is there another way around this so I can accomplish previewing the boot animation on my phone without external input? I searched the market and installed the app called "Boot Animation Preview Lite". It required AndExplorer to be installed to work.... but it never did actually work. Only Force Closes on every attempt.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t2noob:
Have you tried

adb shell bootanimation

I doubt it needs root to be run but that will show you the boot animation and it will keep looping until you stop the command which on windows is control C
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaptyc:
lol.... did you even read my post?

rofl
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t2noob:
Lol probably not...

when running it from the phone where is it running from?

also if you are running it from phone it doesn't need the adb shell part

it should be

bootanimation

^^ I tried this from a terminal but it doesn't work unless I give the terminal su privilages.

so there might not be a way to do this on the phone without root privilages.

Sorry I couldn't be any help.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaptyc:
Its all good t2noob. Thnx for the info... food for thought.

Time to write an app for that =)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaptyc:
results so far:

I created a GScript called "bootscreen" (because I am using a bootscreen with sound and not a "bootanimation.zip"

I checked 'Needs SU?' because I now have root

Then I added the line: bootanimation

All goes well, and I can see/hear my bootscreen BUT I can't end it.

It continually loops like it is supposed to.

Can anyone tell me how to kill the bootanimation once it has been called via GScript Lite?

Things I have tried:

hitting the BACK, HOME, MENU, END/OFF buttons. really every button on the phone.

tapping the place on the screen where I have a "QuitIt" widget that will kill all running apps

The phone will accept screen input because I can tap where certain apps are and tell that they are launching. IE: phone, music player, etc.

I was even able to reboot the phone using Quick Boot just because I knew where the on-screen buttons were to make it reboot.

There seems to be no way to kill the bootanimation except to pull the battery.

Maybe I could create a GScrpit that will kill it, then just know where it is on the screen behind the animation?

Any tips?

EDIT: I created a script like this but it still didn't kill the bootanimation (it did run correctly with the sleep thing though)

bootanimation
sleep 10
pkill bootanimation
pkill boot1.gif
pkill boot2.gif
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arabia:
This is how I've done it through gscrip:

TIMEOUT=20
( bootanimation & sleep
$TIMEOUT; kill $! 2>/dev/null )

you can change the timeout duration to suit your liking (it's in seconds).

Yahya

Hey Y'all,

Anyone know what would cause my internal memory to get about 1mb fuller in what seems like each day. I turn my phone off completely at nite, I am non rooted with OS 2.1

I have even removed some apps to see if this stops. It hasn't Seems like something is writting to my memory with each new startup.

Is there an app, other than Astro or File Manager that will allow me to trim some fat off the internal memory. Also, where (what file) would that be stored in.

Sorry if I haven't explain'd this well but its got me baffled too.

When I updated the OS to 2.1, I was only using about 60mb of internal memory, then I restored all my apps and it came up to about 75mb used, now doing normal daily backups and just normal loads, I have used up 91mb. My backups are saved on the SD, not the internal.

If anyone has any ideas, I would be greatful. At this rate, I will run out of internal memory in about 2 months, lol
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bk718:
any reason why u dont wanna root??? it makes life with android so much easier..

anyway, ur probably buildin up a lot of cache.. if you was rooted you could just use cachemate found in the market and one click would get rid of your cache.. but sense your not, your gonna have to delete cache manually one app at a time..

menu>settings>applications>manage applications

let that load (it will take a min or two depending on how many apps u've got)

after it loads, click menu then sort by size..

start with the first app on the list and click on it.. once that opens you will see "Cache" and the amount (if theres any).. click on Clear Cache.. do that for each app (you will see that a lot of apps are at 0 already so just go onto the next one)

hope that helps..

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daPorkchop:
Well, just cause you root dosent mean you need a custom ROM. You can stay stock rooted and just get the rooted abilities. IE Wifi tethering, Cashe cleaning, a bunch of other stuff.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
Most people had the fear of messing up there phone, however as in the previous post you can root and stay with the stock ROM. I have rooted several android phones, not just hero's, and have not once had a problem. I know that some have problems if they are not on Sprint and try flashing a ROM which might changed their profile info. And the great thing is that there have not been any issues with the 2.1 RUU. So if you rooted and had problems, which I doubt, you can always RUU back to 2.1
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkirton:
They're not having issues due to root...it's the custom roms they are loading. I've had mine rooted since last November, and I haven't had a problem with the phone because of root. Now, I have had problems with custom roms before...but the nice thing about root is that you can always reflash to a new custom rom...or you can go back to stock (or stick with stock if that's your preference).

All root does is gives you more control of your phone. What you do with that control is up to you.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leerock:
Hi guys....

I m a complete noob regarding android and custom roms and i must confess i find the whole thing a bit confusing..

I m a previous iphone owner where jailbreaking was a straightforward procedure and recently bought an htc desire and this rooting and OTA update thingies got a lot confusion to me...

I live in cyprus and purchased an htc desire from ebay,

it has a T-mobile boot logo but its unlocked...

so i have some questions to make and thanks in advance for any responses....

1. will i be able to retrieve any future OTA updates when HTC releases them like froyo? ( I m asking coz the phone looks like it s not factory unlocked... it has a T mobile boot logo on it)

2.If I root the phone and install an official HTC rom (with sence) will i be able to receive OTA updates?

the whole rootin thing gives me shivers coz i ve heard its a little dangerous... so

3.If i root it and install a custom rom from the community is it going to get updates if the specific team release any? or i m going to repeat the rooting procedure and install a new rom every time its released by them?

I m a bit scared of it.....

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanTehManUK:
1) OTA should work but its a branded Desire

2) I dont see why not

3) Installing a custom ROM is fine, just pick someone you like, Defrost, Setrom etc and flash with their latest version,,,, check the forums a week later and there has uaually been an update or some changes :)

for help Rooting have a look at this, nice and simple, just follow the rooting process for a Branded Desire and Goldcard and you should be fine

Thanks a lot for your answers m8,

Now things are getting clearer..

Ok, I thought that in case of branded phone, network operators are pushing the updates

I be read somewhere that a guy debranded his HTC desire with the official Rom but when he installed some OTA updates, the WiFi broke...

Then a guy advised him that he should root his phone and install a custom Rom instead of the official one, just to avoid future risks with OTA updates..

I d prefer to root my phone and install an official Rom....

How can I do that?

How risky is it?

All I want is to debrand my phone and make it like a factory unlocked one, without any future risks...

Thanks!!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanTehManUK:
Best bet is GoldCarding it

again follow this;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696189

and then install the ROM in post #4 its the standard HTC ROM but it has the rooted benefits (superuser app etc) thats the best way to keep it simple, the wifi breaking was an issue with the Radio i beleive that wouldent work with the ROM he was running
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leerock:
Ohhh I see

Thanks a lot for your support m8,

So I should first root the phone with goldcard following the guide in post 3,

And then follow the guide " How to Unroot your HTC Desire to stock"

In post 4...

Right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanTehManUK:
Exactly, so with the GoldCard you can flash to a ROM of your picking but if you feel its not for you flash back to stock and you havent lost anything (except for root) :cool:

Hi

Recently poeple that I speak to on the hp have been complaining that the mic for my HTC dream hp is too sensitive such that noise around me is amplified. Does anyone here know of why or how to resolve this issue?

Possible reasons could be

1. I flashed a latest radio half a year ago.

2. I am using Audio Hack to make my speaker volume audible.

3. I don't think it is due to the ROM, but I am using CM 5 and CM 6.0's nightly recently.

Thanks for the replies.

When I referred to "radio", I meant the 2.50SC.20.17H_2.22.23.02 baseband radio. It was release about half a year ago and was supposed to improved cellular signal strength.

Also, I am using Meltus Audio Hack - settings v6r2.

I am not thinking of using duct tape yet.. Haha

I think the mic sensitivity only increased recently. Are there any hacks to reduce the mic sensitivity, or does anyone face the same issue? Anyway, my handphone specs are as follows.
