[myTouch 3G, Magic General] swordfish7:
Howdy folks,

Here's the background:

I have a MT3G have been using cyanogen 5.08 with Amon Ra 1.7. I was messing around all day yesterday trying to get the CM 6.0 RC1 to install. Which I finally did after much blood sweat and tears. After I booted into the ROM I realized that some of my GAPPS were missing so I figured I just reflash the package from the recovery. Only problem is when I tried to restart into recovery it would hanging on the MT3G load screen. Won't boot to recovery. Won't boot into the ROM. I can boot into fastboot. But I have almost no experience using fastboot to reflash a recovery.

I have read a little bit about how to use adb, the sdk, and fastboot some. But I'm still pretty confused.

I read on these forums somewhere that to flash a recovery with fastboot you have to install the engineering spl. (I don't really even know what this is.) And I don't even know which spl my phone has now.

I will personally make sweet sweet love to you or anyone you please if you can help me sort this out. Thanks so much.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] @MARK:
Looks like I get the honour of posting the first problem.

So I have an unlocked and unbranded Mini Pro and can connect it without problem to my home wifi connection. The problem is that after the phone has been asleep for a while, the wifi connection is dropped and will not reconnect.

The only way to make the phone reconnect is to turn off wifi and then turn it on again. At this point it connects straight away and remains connected until it has been asleep for a while and so on.

Looking at the SE official forums, this problem affects both the Mini and Mini Pro.

It may just be a bug and we will have to wait for a fix but any clues would be welcome as it would be nice if the phone were to default to wifi (just like my Desire) when in the house.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
it's a bug but i think it will be fixed with root or s/e 2,1 update but don't know what will come first
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pulpoff:
There's advanced menu in wifi settings where you can change the delay or remove it.

But that still does not solve the problem completely, phone would randomly disconnect/reconnect sometimes. I believe I saw this problem as well on 1.6 Hero roms, and with Android 2.1 Hero has no problems staying on wifi for days.

At this moment we can see how painfully slow and shortsighted SE are, and their hardware engineers are brilliant, while their software is ages old and simply broken.

I think they should have never released mini with 1.6 Android, and if their developers are so slow, their only chance would be to release all sources to community so we can fix it ourselves.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] @MARK:
I too thought I had heard about this problem on other phones before (but was not 100% sure). So maybe this is not an SE problem rather an Android one :confused:

But the good news is that SE have stated that the Mini and Pro will both get an upgrade to 2.1 this year (but don't hold your breath) so perhaps the answer as you say is to wait.

After all, for now, with a 3GB data package from T-Mobile and a wife who hasn't a clue what Youtube is :p this is not a big deal but a fix would still be nice.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] terewong:
I found the Wi-Fi of my X10 mini pro ( wifi sleep policy = never ) fails into sleep & disabled after the screen off for a while, even failed to re-scan network manually unless re-activate the Wi-Fi.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
the htc hero had android 1.5 and not 1.6 like mini.....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ayewhy:
I tried using FixMyWifi app but it crashes when phone sleeps. An annoying problem this, hopefully SE will fix it soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hackvan:
After flashing damage control 2.3.2 and removing HTC sync apps, the "accounts and sync" control panel was giving me FCs... the sledgehammer advice i found in the DC 2.3.2 announcement was

-If your accounts & sync FC after upgrading from another rom you can try to do the following but be warned you will need to resync everything

Code:

adb remount
adb shell rm /data/system/accounts.db
adb reboot

Yeah, that works, but there's a whole lot of logging-in to do all over again, which is such a bother without a physical keyboard, so here's a modest improvement...

*new & improved* a nice little cryptic incantation to fix the problem without re-syncing...

SO where does the nudge get sent for this to find its way into dconfig??

adb shell
cd /data/system
echo 'delete from accounts where type LIKE "com.htc%";' |sqlite3 accounts.db

--- before I came up with the SQL approach, I did it the hard way ---

adb remount
adb pull /data/system/accounts.db /tmp/

EDIT the accounts.db file (I used the SQLite Manager extension in firefox) and delete all of the com.htc rows from the "accounts" table (I had three for weather, news, and stock applications)...

adb push /tmp/accounts.db /data/system/accounts.db
adb shell reboot

Would anyone care to suggest a more efficient and polished way of doing this same operation? Hmmmmmmmmmm... I guess that'd be an sqlite command-line incantation to be run on the phone...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jasonrush:
I just do a factory reset after deleting everything and solves my fc problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BVMiko:
Wow, thanks! That saved me a lot of headache! I also shortened it into a one-liner:

To check the list beforehand:

adb shell "echo 'select * from accounts;' | sqlite3 /data/system/accounts.db"

To fix the HTC account issues (as per your method):

adb shell "echo 'DELETE FROM accounts WHERE type LIKE \"com.htc%\";' | sqlite3 /data/system/accounts.db"

It is a hotmail email account

Thanks for your time
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
mine setup my hotmail.com account automatically.. just went into add account and typed in the address..

alternatively I think the SE website will guide you through it.
[XPERIA X10 General] vrs2610:
Yeh hotmail is automatic
[XPERIA X10 General] Fahrvergnugen:
If you go into Timescape , click menu button, choose settings>set up email account. put in your hotmail stuff, it should be right as rain.
[XPERIA X10 General] hugorunes:
Hmm still not working is it pop 3 account or ?
[XPERIA X10 General] Fahrvergnugen:
Hmm. I use gmail, but when I put in my email address and password it just worked. As for hotmail... I know you can forward hotmail to a gmail account ;)

[EVO 4G General] bsims85:
After dying my battery cover (black instead of the dark gray color), I noticed that the space between my phone and battery cover was gone.

Heat a pot water on the stove on medium-low heat. You don't want the water anywhere near boiling as it will warp your battery cover. Once the water begins to steam over, that should be fine. Place the cover in the water for about 10 minutes and be sure to move the cover around so its not resting on the bottom of the hot pot. Remove, THOROUGHLY DRY, and replace the cover and hopefully your problem is solved....good luck

[EVO 4G General] scirio:
Its black to begin with, what color did you dye it??
[EVO 4G General] LearnIIBurn:
Haha cool idea. I don't think I trust myself to boil my battery cover. But I definitely do have a gap on one side of my battery cover that gets on my nerves whenever I hold my phone. I'm waiting for replacement battery covers to hit the market (preferably crystal clear ones) to hopefully fix the issue.
[EVO 4G General] beesneazy:
You "dyed" it by putting it in semi-boiling water?

LOL seriously?
[EVO 4G General] bsims85:
I dyed it using RIT Dye in hot water. I wanted to see if I could get it darker than it originally was. My cover was more of a shade of gray than black.

[EVO 4G General] nize2beme:
this is an old trick from the Diamond HTC age, look for further instructions on here and the right kind of paint by doing a search if your interested, pretty impressive colors possible w/ the Diamond, would be curious on the EVO, heck maybe we can get a white cover and stick it to best buy
[EVO 4G General] beesneazy:
Ahh, didn't see a mention of any dye. Figured there was something else to it. ;)
[EVO 4G General] bsims85:
Thats actually where I got the idea to dye the cover. I remembered that thread for the diamond way back when. I figured it would work since the Evo has a similar soft coating on it.

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] 5harkology:
What gap are you referring to?

My battery cover sticks out/not flush with the phone casing on the speaker side. My middle finger rests right on it while holding the phone, drives me crazy.
[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
Any pictures of what it looks like? :)
[EVO 4G General] datajosh:
My EVO and my wife's EVO both are like this as well.
[EVO 4G General] engagedtosmile:
I fixed it just by folding a sticky note and putting it between the battery and the cover, forced the edges down.
[EVO 4G General] 5harkology:
This is my 7th htc phone since my 6600 and 3rd one to have battery cover issues. The vogue and TP were terrible. The battery covers would creak and snap every time you pressed on the phone. I ended up piling up several layers of tape to remedy it.

I guess on the bright side, the evo doesn't creak
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Take a sticky note and fold it in half two or three times. Just put that between your battery cover and the battery.

iPhone-like Lockscreen-Skin for WVGA

A small story:

I decided to create my own lockscreen-skin for WindowsMobile,

because I wasn't able to find a lockscreen which looked and

worked smoothly according to my vision.

And this is the result of my work.

I'll try to solve all problems you got with this skin but it was only developed for my own purposes, so be patient!

Here are some pictures, because I think they describe it at it's best:

Press the image to get it full-sized

Main features:

[+] The skin got a appointment area which shows the next appointment

[+] You are able to see how much notifications you got

[+] It looks a bit like the iPhone-Unlock-Skin (excluding the slider and the top informations)

[+] The slider is located at the left side

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to install:

[-] Extract the .zip archiv with a program like WinRar, 7Zip or something similar

[-] Put the extracted folder on your P0hone or Storage Card

[-] Backup following files to restore the standard skin

[-] Copy all files from the windows folder to /windows

[-] Copy all files from the lockscreen folder to /windows/LockScreen

[-] Soft-Reset your device

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To-Do:

- Create a WVGA-Landscape skin

- Create a VGA skin

- Create a QVGA skin

...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ChangeLog:

[13.July] jdignazio created a .cab file to install it easily. (The .cab is not testet, so use on your own risk!)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Credits:

- NRGZ28: for his lockscreen-file. Because my work is based on his file

- jdignazio: He created a .cab to install the skin easily

All changes on your ROM are without responsibility!!

Sorry for my bad English, but I'm only a German student.

I hope you like my work!

There have been a few discussions about this, but I have yet to find a solution that works for me...

I flashed CM6 today and now I'm finding that when I enable wifi, my 3g data connection is lost. Not sure this is really a CM problem, I just want to find a fix.

My setup:

Nexus One - CM6.RC1 - FRF91
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakraider:
what do you mean it's lost.. when you're turning Wifi on, that's the whole point (that you want to use your Wifi connection for data, and not your mobile 3G data.) Maybe I'm not understanding you?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiserai:
Even with wifi on you still need 3g data to send and receive MMS. I can't replicate this problem, though, so I'm afraid I'm not much help. All I can suggest is trying a full wipe of everything but battery and rotate stats and try to flash it again. See if that helps.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
It works fine for me. Are you sure you are confussing not having both icons in the notification bar with 3g being off?

I answered this question a few months ago too.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Your 3g is not lost, it just hides the icon. Go into settings and look what network you are still connected to for yourself, it will still say 3g. If you were to send or receive an mms the 3g icon would briefly pop up, send the message, then disappear. Your phone is working just fine :-)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williec30:
thanks for the help... @roger, you are correct, i didn't realize that the icon was hidden vs. actually turned off, nor did i think to go check the actual service rather than rely on the icon :mad:

it'll roam on verizon just fine. Chances are your plan doesn't charge you for roaming anyway (I don't think any of the data plans charge for roaming).
[HD2 General] bogdatov:
I had that nice application called "My Account" which came as part of official T-Mobile HD2 update. It displayed minutes used, billing, forums, etc by downloading info from TMO. I used it from time to time.

About a week ago it stopped working. When I start it, it displays "The My Account application will be downloaded shortly" and only "Exit" link/button available.

No way to download it, and it has been a week already, so I doubt it will be downloaded "shortly" and "automatically :) I tried to reinstall it from cab - no effect. Same message.

I do not have FULL internet package, but only TZones. It works fine for me including email, maps, chat, opera, etc. And "My Account" WORKED with TZones before. And everything else internet related still works for me now. But not "My Account". I do know about #MIN# and #BAL#, but "My Account" was more convenient.

Any idea how to fix it ?

my apologies for reviving an old post, but why create a new one, when theres one on the similar topic..?

I downloaded the executable, ran it and I get the following error:

USB Connection Error (Something like that)

The phone reboots and just says htc. The executable is waiting for boot loader and times out after a minute or so.

I unplug the usb after the executable errors out and it instantly goes to a boot loader screen with ruu. I cannot run anything and have no choice but to battery pull.

According to the RUU thread, one person mentioned having to complete part 2 of rooting so i did that. I still cannot return this thing to stock!!!

I need to send it back to sprint, but I gotta get it back to stock first.

How the crap do I get this back to stock!

I'd reply in the RUU thread, but it looks like the last guy who posted never got a response...hopefully this thread will get me an answer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h40:
adb reboot into recovery using "adb reboot recovery" then enable USB and run the RUU
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
I ran in to the same issue just now. I couldn't fix it, but here is how to do essentially the same thing.

Follow this guide to extract the RUU

Rename the rom.zip file you extract to PC36IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD card

Reboot into the bootloader, it will load the file and ask if you wanna install it, you should do so ;)

It'll finish and ask if it should reboot, choose yes and boot into a stock phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madcow706:
Its a driver issue, at least it was for me, the google drivers don't work for the htc ruu application. You need the htc drivers install for the phone to be recognized by the rom updater. Hope that helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
i had that issue too, for me it was the drivers. i then used my work computer and it allowed me to use the RUU
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcnice20:
I always had to run a ruu from fastboot in order for it to work
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redsolar:
YMMV, but I had to run the oldest RUU first when I was at 1.47 level, and then re-run 1.47 RUU for it to work. Otherwise, bootloader would never get pickup up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06ms6:
I always had to restart the RUU after I got the error first. Run it again after it times out, when your phone is sitting at the HTC screen and it will work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigereyeslalo:
Just install the latest HTC Sync and you're set. That will fix your issue. Install HTC Sync and run the RUU afterwards.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamliner330:
