I'm sort of new to hacking so im not entirely sure but... when u flash your device, essentially you are putting a custom Rom( software) on it and it won't run the software that originally shipped with the phone.

I don't think u need to put your phone in adb mode, I use Rom manager from the Android market and this will allow you to install roms and back up your Rom. Rom manager is great because it let's you install or even update your Rom without the use of a computer. Remember to back your phone up with it before you install the custom rom.
[Droid Incredible General] SifonX:
Reflashing is technically completely removing the original HTC recovery and replacing it with another one (such as Koush's ClockworkMod). A custom recovery is required to install a Custom ROM (such as Cyanogenmod or any of the other numerous ROMS available). There's a How To thread in the development section that explains all of this in detail and unrEVOked just released version 3.0 which is a one click root/reflash. I'd suggest reading the How to first, then researching the different custom recoveries available before actually proceeding with the installation of a custom ROM as, with all things hacking, there is a small chance that you could brick your phone.
[Droid Incredible General] d_1000:
ok another noob question...

I rooted using unrevoked 3.0 on my Mac and I installed ROM manager.

1. I have access to sd card on my mac, does it matter where I put the zip file?

2. when I tried to load, my device said that I needed to mount sd card, but under settings, this was not an option...help?

Update: Do I need to partition cad....or use a different card and partition it, since I will wipe card? please advise...thank you.
[Droid Incredible General] kentoe:
When you get your rom in a .zip file you can feel free to put it wherever you like on your sd card. Once you are ready to install a rom reboot into recovery (by using volume down and the power button or select "reboot into recovery" in rom manager) and once you are at a screen with "Clockworkmod recovery 2.0.2.x" go to "Install zip from sdcard" and select the option with your trackpad button. From there you can go through your sd card and select whatever .zip that you want from whatever directory.

[HD2 General] Moschino02:
Hey peeps,

I've been using hd2 for around 2months now and I love it. im still using the uk tmobile 1.72 stock version and im pretty content with it tbh

i love to customise, tweak and experiment there are endless possibilities thanks to the devs/chefs on this forum who will keep this dying breed of a device going for as long as possible.

forgive me for my stupid question but in regards with the windows mobile part of the device which is very ugly and boring are there any themes for a different layout? maybe just change the background colour ? or do i need to install a non stock ROM? im really happy with sense & touchflo3d which i think is fantastic

secondly i didnt want to ask this but im starting to pull my hair out, can anyone tell me how i go about changing the 'notes' program icon?? simply because i do not know where the program is located on the device? i can select it as a quicklink thats about it also im using jwmd icon changer

if you get a second to answer i appreciate it :cool:
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
go to settings -menu -all settings -today and choose a theme from the list.........

for your icon notes should be under office in jwmd......

hope that helps ......

Got my replacement phone (screen separation)

Original Packaging, battery case date 6/23/10

003

Epson

OTA installed out of box

Baseband: 2.05.00.06.10

Software #: 1.47.651.1

PRI : 1.40_003

PRL: 60667

First I heard of the OTA out of the box, just letting everyone know, time for rooting.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
your late to the party the OTA has been on the new phones for a while
[EVO 4G General] ausch30:
There has been speculation that it's been on new phones but it was also thought that employees were updating it while activating it. I got my replacement on 7/10 and it had the 1.32.651.6. The OTA has only been out 2 weeks, sounds about right that phones with the update would be getting to stores right about now.
[EVO 4G General] anthonyl2008:
as long as your Software #: 1.47.651.1 then you can root... email me if you need more information

[EVO 4G General] Geniusdog254:
Hehe I was thinking the exact same thing :)

But I got my replacement today and no OTA, although the guy tried to install it while activating. I cancelled the download lol.

I picked up an 003 Nova btw. No light leak, feels much more sturdy in hand. What did you get?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdan35:
Right, as the title says.. I'm pretty new to this game and it's pretty frustrating, trying to trawl Google and this forum for something which can tell me about what a Radio Image is.

I want to use one of MoDaCo roms, which is used in the Online Kitchen as it's pretty nifty to pick and choose what you want, and what you don't! (I'm not so much of a fan of the Sense UI, been using another UI).

I'm confused about the Radio Image, being on Orange and in the UK, should I include the "32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04" or, if I install the ROM without it, will my phone work properly, or get locked? I'm currently on "32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11".

Sorry for sounding like a newbie, it's because I am! But I'm getting there slowly :)

Dan.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
Being on Orange you can't install any other radio than what your phone is provided with, shame really. You can purchase an unlock code and then flash any radio you want though.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdan35:
Thanks for the clarification! Muchos appreciated. That's pretty strange, so after you purchase an unlock code, you can flash any radio, and it'll be unlocked for good? Now that's impressive :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgrec92:
the radio is not the radio you think of like an fm radio

the software radio controls communications within the phone, this included GSM, 3G, WIFI, BLUETOOTH etc

with the latest roms this updated radio is required as it contains features the rom needs, an outdated rom will therefore not be compatible anymore.

remember that once flashing a radio to never interrupt the process, the phone will reboot several times by itself and seem to be turned off but once you've flashed the radio just do NOT touch it, it will restart itself i promise :) or else you could end up with a brick

yes with orange you need to first unlock your phone and then you can install whatever radio/rom your heart wishes :)

//edit: DNS issue fixed, reusing this thread for another issue.

On Windows PPTP VPN connections, you can select whether or not the default gateway gets set to that of the VPN server. In the Android VPN client, it automatically sets the default gw to the VPN server.

Any way to prevent this from happening?

I still haven't resolved the ability to keep your default gateway instead of changing to the one of the VPN. So I only connect when I need to, but it would be great to be always connected so I can have access to my NAS.

Hardware Issue

Seem to me you either have a defective apps or widget, a defective SD or a hardware issue like defective video ram or something like that, you could try to use a benchmark app like quadrant this may help pinpoint the exact subsystem that cause crash (video, cpu, ram) and try running stock OS with almost nothing loaded ...

This is assuming you are running from a clean install, When you have issue it's always a good idea to clean install (full wipe etc...)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingkee:
Try to go to bootloader (press and hold trackball when power on), then go to recovery and clear out cache.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luffyz:
Mine is stock and sometimes it freeze when I tried to unlock. I had to turn the screen off and on 1-2 times to make it work again
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rensky:
Following your advice and let me monitor for a day or so. If doesn't work I will wipe everything and reflash.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingskidd268:
1. How many app you have and 2 are they on your SD? If you have alot of apps ittaking up your internal space causing you to freeze.

I actually installed spare parts the same day i installed stock frf91, so i am not sure who is the culprit. It didnt happen today, but froze yesterday and the day before.

turned off all the animations (transition/window) to get maximum speed out of my n1 using spare-parts maybe thats causing the craziness no?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xialis:

I've got mine already too, it is FAST, the GPS has no issues, locks faster then my G1, the bottom buttons seem to be the only touchy issue but I think Samsung did it on purpose so you don't keep accidently hitting the buttons and activating them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MacGuy2006:
I was just wondering why they've changed the Galaxy's big center button in the carrier versions? Just so they can fit the ugly carrier logos somewhere...?

Maybe because I am used to the iPhone, I find the 4-button array on most Android phones much more awkward than a center Home button.

Even the Back button is annoying, since I usually operate the phone with one hand, and have to twist my thumb all the way down and to the right, every time I need to go back. It's so much more user friendly to have soft Back button in the upper left corner of the screen.

Ergonomically, the 4-button thing is a step backward - you have to take your eyes off the screen, and in the dark you have to hunt and peck and wait for them to light up.

Just curious how others feel?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spenncerr:
Hi guys, new to the forums and general HTC rooting/flashing so bare with me.

I've rooted and flashed my HTC G1 successfully before but I decided I wanted to move over to Cyanogens ROM so I wiped my G1 and started over.

I started following this guide http ://theunlockr. com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-g1dream/

and all was going well until I rebooted and realised I had to register the phone again, so I went through the process of enabling the WiFi since I don't have a Data Plan.

I got to the stage where I'm trying to bypass the login screen by using the adb shell etc.

But I can't seem to get the HTC device to connect, I'm unsure if the drivers installed properly, but I've plugged my G1 into my computer before and it's worked fine.

I can still boot into Camera + Power / Home + Power fine, so I don't think it's a real brick. But I can't get around the registration issue. Sorry if this was a wall of text, I'd be thankful for any help or guidance.

Cheers.

[XPERIA X10 General] mirdones:
Hi,

I have seen this in some threads, but I have not seen any solution.

I have rooted my X10a phone to R2BA023 and now, the phone takes a long time to recognize I have inserted a headphone, routing the audio to the external speakers.

I do not have this issue when I am using bluetooth, jst my normal headphones.

Anybody has a solution for this?
[XPERIA X10 General] gfgodoy:
It happens to me too. It is kindda fixed (version 20 had a huge problem with headphones) but it is really slow to pickup the headphone signal

I don't know if it is time based or software based

Things I do that SEAM to work sometimes:

force close mediascape and re-open

boot with headphones connected,

turn media volume all way down, pause, play and turn it back all the way up.

wait for a minute or so

I don't get what turns it on. I thought it was fixed.
[XPERIA X10 General] Keegan_P:
I'm having no problem, of course I force close most apps, including mediascape as soon as I boot up.
[XPERIA X10 General] mirdones:

I usually force close most of my apps also.

[XPERIA X10 General] ClintonH:
I'm rooted on R2BA023, using 3(cubed) as well. Use it everyday for 3 hours or so (1hr drive to work each way) it works instant for me, I did a check yesterday after seeing your thread. ;) Might be a hardware issue??
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
I'm having the same issue. I know my headphones worked with the first root, but when I upgraded to R2BA023 is when they stopped working.

I noticed that if you restart the phone with headphones plugged in, they work, or if you leave them plugged in for like 2 minutes, they start working fine.
[XPERIA X10 General] mirdones:
I don't know about the restart with the phones plugged, but my headphones worked just fine with the R2BA020 root and they start working just after sometimes, this happenning not moving the phone or the headphones at all.

Just tried the restart. It just works after some time also.

Call customer service. Tell them you want to upgrade early. Be friendly with them when they say no. Let them knwo you have been a customer for X amount of yrs and pay on time (this wont work if u dont pay on time or a fairly new customer) and if that you love their network and want to stay with it and if they could talk to their mgr to get it approved for an early upgrade.

Ive done this 3 times. Got 3 phones in 1 YR. But ive been a customer for 8YRS and a bill over a few hundred each month and pay on time.

Will this work for you? Maybe, but it doesnt hurt to try, right? Good luck.

FYI, this worked for me again getting the Droid X but I canned it after reading up more on it.
