and...

Now i dont have a recovery !! when i try to enter recovery it just brings me to fastboot!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Did you uninstall HTC Sync?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrongOneX:
no :confused:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Uninstall HTC Sync and start again. Next time read the instructions.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrongOneX:
uninstall and install again ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratchetnclank:
No uninstall the program leaving just the drivers. Then run unrevoked again.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickedpenguin:
Make sure you set the Boot driver also, as per the instructions in UNrevoked directory on .html file.

Also make sure you have the correct version of Unrevoked v 3.1
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrongOneX:
problem solved.

Thanks everyone !!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goksar:
sooolveed... :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SavageCore:
Make sure Sync is uninstalled and follow driver installation instructions.

As previously mentioned
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Milamber:
Perhaps change your title - its very misleading, the problem wasn't unrEVOked, it was you not reading their instructions - glad you got it sorted though. ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tori007:
i had the same issue

i backup sd card since i v only one and created a gold card

i then ran an the R5 root method since i v a version 0.8 cant remember

once u do step one dont bother about step two

just copy fake flash to ur sdcard and rename update.zip

then hold the down vol button and press power once to get to hboot

select recovery

when u get to the screen with the red triangle

press the up vol button and hold the power button

when u get to the blue screen select apply update.zip

that should take you to recovery

dont forget to backup ur stuff before u reroot
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typhex:
pls change title to solved
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tori007:
the problem was unrevoked

this happen after i tried using unrevoked

went ok from the beginning

but after the phone rebooted it kept pushing recovery for over an hour

tried it about 5 times and still did not work
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshjzx:
as always RTFM (read the f***ing manual) :)

glad you got it sorted, recovery and rooting is a godsend so many roms to try haha
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forelli:
What about reading more to learn more?

The problem WAS NOT unrevoked, it was YOU and only YOU not reading the damn f$%&ing instructions. Before you try to root or update, please read, read and read again until you understand every single word of the instructions, and if there is something you don't understand, just ask, we are all pleased to help each other, but don't accuse a great program and the greater team behind unrEVOked.

Thanks for reading.

Simple question..... Do we really need an Antivirus with Android??? I know is an open source OP.... Someone already got infected?? :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] UbuntuBhoy:
Don't know if there has been an infection, but as with any Linux OS, even though you may not be at risk it is easy to pass infection to all your contacts who may be at risk.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MacGuy2006:
I've been looking for a good weather app, but have not been able to find anything decent for Android.

Basically, I need:

-- multiple cities

-- no ads (happy to pay)

-- clean design

-- no widget (O.K., one small one is fine, but I don't want a separate widget for each city to clutter up my screen)

In effect, if it could look like the iPhone weather app, it would be great.

Also, if it could show the local time in each city, it would be perfect (why do we have to manually adjust DST in the stock clock app is beyond me?)

Anyone seen something like this?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zephiK:
Have you tried the Weather Channel?

Has multiple cities (manually put in zip code), clean design for sure, it has widgets of different sizes. Ads.. not too sure since I have mines rooted with AdFree.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Dallasalien:
For multiple cities weather channel is great. I avoid weather bug out of principle, I hate their spamware desktop stuff.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MacGuy2006:
Thanks for the Weather Channel recommendation.

I tried it without ads and it works well.

Now, if it showed local time and if it had alarms, it'd be perfect :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zephiK:
haha.. im sure there are apps that have what you're looking for around the market. It's the Weather Channel not the Time Channel :P

glad you like it though!

Hey guys, I just started to root my phone and now I am stuck on Step 2 haha.

I have my phone in USB Mode, The HTC Sync and .Net Framework 4.0, duh.

And I bought my phone a week ago and applied the June 30th update.

However after successfully completely Step 1 and moving on to Step 2, I get an error that reads:

Running part 1....

error: protocol fault (no status)

Press any key to continue....

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
I haven't heard of that error before, try deleting all files from your sd card (make a copy of them on your computer first) then start over.

Hi,

I recently purchased a unlock code from unlockadic for my vibrant but when I went to use it it said Network lock request unsuccessful. Does anyone have any ideas?

If this is in the wrong section I apologize

P.S. I did contact unlockadic and said that this has never happened and that he would have to have his guys look at the problem.
[Vibrant General] lysolflow:
bump because i had the same issue.
[Vibrant General] hussarfilms:
you need a non-t-mob sim in the phone for the unlock to activate
[Vibrant General] magatron76:
I have an account with Rogers & that is the SIM l put in the phone-result was unsuccessful. Code is correct unlock code-i got the same code from three different sources but no luck.
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
hussafilms is correct.

You need to put in a sim from a network that the phone was not designed for. So if you bought the phone from tmobile then put in a att sim or if you bought it from another company put in a sim that is not from that company. So if you have the galaxy s from rogers then put in a tmobile sim or something.
[Vibrant General] magatron76:
Let me clarify, I bought a Samsung t959 Vibrant from ebay locked to t mobile and I put in my Rogers SIM card, entered the code and it was unsucessful
[Vibrant General] MonkySlap:
How many times did you try to enter the unlock code? I beleive if you have three failed attempts, it will be permanatly locked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lelalouf:
I was wondering if there is a way to make my phones contact pictures look the same as the generic Android that comes up when there is no contact for the number. I have taken a picture and cropped out all background to make it look 3d gave it a transparent background, saved it as png, but when you assign it to a contact it still shows up as a sqaure photo not with the transparent background.

In other words, I want my contact pics to look 3d like the android guy.

Anyone know how to do that or even if it can be done?
[Droid X General] onelifexv:
I don't recall this with my original Droid, but is anyone else having poor Pandora quality, even with the high quality setting turned on?

EDIT: Now that I've played with it I've realized it's all music coming through the headphones, although the speaker doesn't seem to be as bad. The treble quality is really poor. I've doublechecked the same mp3 / headphones on my laptop and it plays back fine.

Even playing with the equalizer settings, it still seems pretty bad.
[Droid X General] lilmoney30:
Did you check the higher quality music setting in the menu?
[Droid X General] onelifexv:
"I don't recall this with my original Droid, but is anyone else having poor Pandora quality,

Hi,

I have tried for hours looking through the forum and trying different methods with no avail so was hoping someone could help me and keep it as simple as possible.

My HTC magic branded vodafone with a 32B board randomly freezes and sometimes has problems ending calls. It appears to be a software problem so was hoping flashing it would solve it however I havent been able to find a simple guide on howto do this.

If someone could help me out with a dummys guid to flashing my phone I would be grateful

Thank you in advance :)

James

p.s the phone is not rooted, its just the standard spec you get when brought.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ckombo:
Can anyone chime in? I did search and found that these seem to be the best available, but didn't find a comparison.

Do they both work the same in sunlight? or is there an advantage to the matte anti-fingerprint version?

I don't like having to find a shady spot when I'm outside to see what's on my screen
[EVO 4G Accessories] bradfox2:
I have the ultraclear on and love it. Great in the sun and fingerprints show.up less then the glass I would just get ultra clear
[EVO 4G Accessories] docprego:
I've owned both for various phones and am currently using the Ultra Clear on my EVO:

Ultra Clear

Pros:

1. Ultra clear :-)

2. Reduces fingerprinting compared to the naked screen

3. Very durable/scratch resistant

4. Very smooth feel, to me it feels just like the naked glass.

Cons:

1. Fit is not 100% perfect, it leaves a small gap all around it.

2. Still shows fingerprints (though less)

Anti-fingerprint

Pros:

1. Reduces fingerprinting drastically compared to the naked screen

2. Very durable/scratch resistant

3. Nice textured feel

Cons:

1. Reduces the clarity of the screen substantially, IMO so much so that I prefer not to use this protector for this reason alone.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jerryparid:
Martin Fields is the very best. It even includes a camera lens protector. However it is very expensive.
[EVO 4G Accessories] x iFLaWz:
I know its offtopic a little but what about bodyguardz?

I really cant find a difference between most but i know invisible shield is VERY Thick.
[EVO 4G Accessories] docprego:
I know some people swear by Bodyguardz and I have used it on other devices. However it is a wet application product like Invisibleshield and more than one EVO user has claimed that water from the install ruined their phone. Therefore on my screen I will only use static application (water free) protectors such as the Steinheil or Seidio.
[EVO 4G Accessories] x iFLaWz:
Besides for that how does it hold up to the other ones???
[EVO 4G Accessories] ckombo:
Docprego - thanks for the detailed comparison. Was ready to order the ultra clear until I read about the Martin Fields. (Thanks jerryparid)

The Martin Fields comes out to $27 shipped though! Pretty steep...

What I like about this one is the included camera lens protector. The aluminum ring around the camera lens is flush with the glass, which makes no sense. If they wanted to protect the glass, they should have recessed the glass into the aluminum ring a little bit.

Anyone know of a company selling just a small circle to cover the lens? Does the lens protector distort or reduce photo quality in any way? Thanks!
[EVO 4G Accessories] _jws:
i got the Steinheil ultra clear and i found the resulting tactile response to be a bit worse than some of the other screen protectors i've tried, ie. sprints
[EVO 4G Accessories] jerryparid:
I do not feel that the film reduces photo quality. It is crystal clear and glass-like. The cut is near perfect. However, Martin Fields does not offer the best performance under the sun (compared to anti-glare protectors).
[EVO 4G Accessories] fitzbarrientos:
I got the Steinheil Ultra Crystal Screen Protector from the SGP Store. I'll tell you, for $16.74 ($13.99 + $2.75) at the door, nothing can beat this excellent product.

Ordered online Sunday morning. Order was shipped on Monday and I got it today, Thursday.

Yes, I will confess it was a pain in the a** to get it right, not so much because of it being difficult to apply, but because I made the mistake to peel off the protector and then leave it like that for a while while double checking the instructions and videos in YouTube. What happened is that small lint particles floating in the air got stuck to the film, so when I applied it I had multiple pieces all over my screen.

Now, I must say, the provided "dust remover" stickers DO WORK. Use one to lift the film, another one to remove the particles adhered to the inside of the film or screen. (I kept 2 stickers on each corner of the film, since I had to peel from different angles. This saved me a lot of time.)

In my case, I just had so many it was totally exhausting to get them all out. But I did a pretty good job despite the initial setback. I was very meticulous and wanted it as perfect as possible, and I am happy to say that at the end it came out just like I wanted.

Also, I was a little worried after reading some of the posts here, regarding lower responsiveness to the touch. Well, I have ZERO issues with that. I am very impressed, actually. I can barely tell the protector is there, yes, it is ULTRA CLEAR indeed. Everything works just as it was before, to the slightest touch.

And since I am using the protector along with a black TPU case, it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to tell there is a film covering the screen, because you cannot see the edges of the film. (The film is slightly smaller in dimensions than the actual screen, but it does cover the whole face, including buttons on the bottom.)

Overall, very pleased and happy. I recommend this product to everybody.

Yes, my vibrant has the tmo rubber case on it and it fits almost perfectly in the sidekick holster.

Hey guys. I am off on holiday for two weeks...

In terms of data usage we all know roaming is not a good idea unless you have deep pockets or find a suitable data roaming package...

I have asked t-mobile uk about data charges and they said I got buy a small 200mb bundle for £40... (not sure which package to take if any)..

what do I turn off to avoid roaming charges?

many thanks, look forward to your reply
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
My phone by default doesn't allowing roaming on the data connection (edge/3g). There's an option that you have to specifically turn on to allow it.

change the SIM card when you arrive locally to where ever you are going, and then you can use local rates.

go into adb shell and type in dmesg some long list of results should come up search through them and search for anything that says epson or novatec its the only for sure way to know unless your hardware number is 002 then you have novatec as for the multi touch go into adb shell and type in "adb shell cat /sys/android_touch/vendor" and if the result is ATMEL_x0080_x0016 you have 5 point multitouch if it is ATMEL_x004F_x0016 you only have 3 all this could also have been found on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=719763 hope it all helped :)

I haven't been able to stream from my pc, but I can use ES to copy a file to my sdcard and play it via rock player. I'm pretty sure there are served based apps like OrbLive that allows you to stream from your desktop, but they require you to install a service on your pc.

Swapping red for yellow on some cables?

Hi

I remember seeing a video about this on youtube;

( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SU4Czu3LpU )

Apparantly there are a couple of different cables used, so (as he says in the video) the wires may be mirrored, so if you don't get it to work with the yellow as video (as is standard) try the red for video in stead. This might help you out.

Regards, T:cool:m
