Either google voice or you could call customer service and ask them to turn on block caller id for your phone number so it will block all the time. I don't know if they do that now but years ago I did that with sprint. I would say google voice is the best bet. It's kinda confusing at first but just keep reading and googling. I'm only using it for voicemail. You could, if you are lucky, choose/search for the same number you have now, just with a different area code. You better check your plan and talk to customer service to make sure you don't get charged for conditional or unconditional call forwarding. The kitchen sink plan, don't worry about it. Lesser plans might charge for full call forwarding and not conditional (your phone rings, and if you don't answer, it will forward to gv. I could go on and on explaining this...

Verify with your plan, and the fine print, if you are charged for any type of call forwarding or if goes against your monthly allotment of minutes. Make sure before you do this so you won't get hit with surprise charges.

Thanks for the information. I just setup a Google Voice account. It's not quite what I'm looking for beacuse customers will still get a number to call me on, but at least now when I answer it'll ask me if I want to accept or decline the call when it goes through Google. That way I'll have an idea how's calling me. And my plan should be fine. Due to the number of calls I take they have me on an unlimited plan.

Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raidzx:
You can disable the number when needed by setting it to do not disturb.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
Yeah but you can have it so it displays the google voice number instead of your real number if you call someone. I don't know how your work sets it up but maybe they could, if they're call forwarding to your phone, have them call forward to your google voice number instead. That way you might be able to take advantage off all the bells and whistles gv offers. Like say, monitoring someone leaving you a voicemail and you decide if you wanna talk to them. Kinda like if you had a physical answering machine at your house, idea.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
There's a lot of stuff that can be done if you can get them to call the gv number instead of your real number.

I hate it when customers get my personal number and call when they have a complaint. Speaking of which, I need to see if I can change my settings so that my outgoing caller id shows my google number instead of my personal one.

[EVO 4G General] Drew5150:
ok so this will happen quite often to me after messing with customizations or just using different apps. I exit apps that stay running correctly (at least ones I know I need to). my ram will fill up, or almost up and then the phone will freeze for a few seconds. when it comes back up I open system panel and close all inactive apps and anything else I feel needs to be closed. this will leave me with 50% or less free.

usually i'm not concerned, but twice now my phone has rebooted due to this. this happened once back in june and now just today. I had navigation up and when I knew where I was going I woke up the phone to exit it, but the phone was frozen. so I put it down and it actually keeps giving me directions. then I heard the start up tone, I didn't bother to look just put the phone in my pocket. a few minutes later it reboots again. again I didn't bother cause I did not need it. when I did need it I found it with no cell or 3g reception and no icons loaded up. reboot the phone manually and all is fine.

I am rooted with the latest fresh rom. but I have only been rooted for 6 days and I have been getting this memory issue the whole time I have owned the phone(release day purchase). including one reboot before rooting.

I keep reading that we should not have to worry about memory and that android takes care of it by closing apps when new apps need the memory. is this really true?

usually I keep it free by using system panel but I forget sometimes. I haven't used task killers as I read mix reviews and I like some things manual anyways.

so, is this normal? am I doing something wrong, or is there a setting I need? do I just need to go get a task killer?

what are the best task killers? and is there any programs I should not kill? or whats the optimal way to set these up?

thanx for any help you can give me
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Try using Advanced Task Killer (there's a free version in the Market) and change its security settings to low, then start killing processes you don't need.

While Android is supposed to have good RAM management... Well, as you can see, it's not that great. Generally, if I get under 100MB of RAM available, I tend to go on a killing spree... Of processes.

[HD2 General] MartinHouse:
good day, guys

I am having a problem with the flashlight and need some help here. Thank in advance for reaing this thread.

I am using a HTC HD2 TMobile. I just flashed it with Miri V17.6 ROM few days ago. The problem is that, in my canera, the flash light is "locked" at "always off". I did tab it, but it just wouldn't change. I am sure I could change it when it was with stock ROM. So does anyone knows what the problem is?

Thanks.

UPDATES

I just found that the phone was in low battery, after I recharge, the falshlight came back. Probelm solved, thanks!
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
LOL :D

If you want i have registry mod to enable flashlight even below 20% of battery.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
just so you know why,,,, it turns itself off at less than 20% battery.

(EDIT - 30 changed to 20)
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
in which ROM? In 1.66 WWE and coocked ROM's based in it, flashlight turn off when is 20% or less. I have registry mod, which keep flashlight working even when battery reach 1% charging. Check attachments.

I'm running Damage Control 3.2.3 since I got the Evo about a month ago so I don't have too much time running the stock ROM.

I've noticed the wifi signal sucks! I can be using the wifi sitting on the couch a few from the router and my signal dropouts out every so often. I'm also running the latest radio (2.05.00.06.10).

Anyone have wifi issues?

I had problems with my wifi signal. thought that it was because of my flashing back and worth from rom to rom. Finally, decided to reset my router and voila! signal problems were gone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MCL1981:
this is totally non-specific to a router.

My laptop had full strength. My evo has one bar. Same thing at home, other people's homes, hot spots, etc. My friends iPhone picks up wifi signals i can't even see. It's pretty annoying. Probably just an inferior antenna inside the phone.

yeah it works! Currently I tried, Silent Hill, Gran Turismo 2, and Final Fantasy 7.

They all work. Except there is some artifact on your character in Silent Hill, it's not that disruptive. I thought GT2 was running a little slow but when I look at the time/timer during the race, the number seems to move at a very smooth [normal] rate. Is the game originally this slow?

Google "scph1001.bin" and load that file in a place where you'll remember it. When you open the emulator, you'll need to navigate to this file when it asks you to find the bin. You should be good to go after that afa running the program. Which roms you pick up is up to you. happy trails.

I've noticed something disturbing. I've really only tried and played FFVII and Tales of Destiny, but i think these games may have nothing to do with it.

When i use psxdroid and play a game, long after i've closed my game, and exited the emulator, i get SEVERE slowdown on the phone. i'm talking gallery, browser, multitasking, are all unusable. i have to reboot, which cures the slowness until i play again.

the games are saved in internal memory as my sdcard is full, but i still have 12gb of internal memeory left. and i've done the stalling issue fix, the nandroid one, right when i got the phone on the 15th.

anyways, is the app just killing my ram and holding on to it till i reboot? after i exit the app, it's not in running applications anymore. :(

i don't expect any fix, just wanted to leave feedback. :cool:
