Recovery's update via update.zip doesn't find an update.zip if it is named just update. So sorry to say, but that is wrong. Not everyone has their browser set to hide file extensions.

Anyone figure out the verification problem?
[EVO 4G General] uahgekido:
I sorta believe them that it isn't final. Something doesn't seem right about this build. Only one of my Gmail accounts will actually update automatically (the other 4 only work when you hit Menu>Refresh from within the Gmail app). The camera was glitchy at first (crashed out to the launcher the first few times I launched it) and none of my Market purchases show up.

Everything else seems fine - and better - though.

Swype is not working. I can type individual keys, but when I try to swype, it won't type the keys.
[EVO 4G General] spyngamerman:
i didnt have any verifcation problmes just did the update and all is good restoring my apps as we speak subtle changes so far like<> arrows at bottom of gmail app while in message etc btw i guess htc said this isnt final version on their facebook
[EVO 4G General] astemp:
can this update be applied to a rooted, non-stock rom?
[EVO 4G General] arcanecho:
Seems to have broke camera... Anyone else experiencing this?
[EVO 4G General] svinyard:
Anyone notice the so called "Video Fixes"? I'm not really seeing much of a difference?
[EVO 4G General] svinyard:
Camera is working fine for me. It does seem to make a funny little noise when it turns on though.
[EVO 4G General] bob6789x:
I'm getting a 404 error from the download link everyone posted... Did they already pull it?
[EVO 4G General] ho4x:
Mine got worse, actually.. One of the first things I did was fire up the vidcam and record a video. It was very choppy and dropped a lot of frames. My camera seems to be working fine though.
[EVO 4G General] astemp:
can somebody please help me? i would love to install this update but i want to make sure i can. all the instructions on how to install it seem to be geared towards people who haven't rooted their phone. I have rooted and i have baked snack installed, so how do i apply the update?
[EVO 4G General] nhutpham:
I tested the video as well, and 720p recording is still choppy.

I don't remember if they had this before, but there is H.264 encoding now. I tried it out, it makes for a very smooth video at 800x480. It's good enough that I would prefer to use it over 720p.

Most of the video fixes are the led and the rotation animations, which are welcome additions.
[EVO 4G General] njward75:
flash works...

I downloaded the flash 10.1 and installed. I don't know of many flash websites so I went with with what I knew so... uh... well, pornhub works. so, no need to verify because I took care of it.

Sinners...
[EVO 4G General] m03sizlak:
There is no OTA yet. The version floating around is a pre-release, found on HTC's website,version 3.25. The real deal will be version 3.26.
[EVO 4G General] meatless:
Well, I applied the 3.26 that was posted and then yanked, and everything seemed to be pretty working pretty well...

I recorded a test video, it looked alright, then I hit delete... phone rebooted, and now endlessly reboots. It will boot to the unlock screen and sometimes actually let me unlock it, but will reboot soon after.
[EVO 4G General] Fixter:
HTC strongly recommends you DO NOT install this update. So.. Yeah. ^^
[EVO 4G General] meatless:
Yeah, definitely learn from my example.
[EVO 4G General] shortbus182:
I'm sure this will help the devs out tremedously.
[EVO 4G General] ho4x:
The version that was found on HTC's website is version 3.26.

OTA_Supersonic_3.26.651.3-1.47.651.1_releaseu2cqjc2e98n4o6xn to be exact.

Straight from my phone:

Android Version - 2.2

Baseband Version - 2.15.00.07.28

Kernel Version - 2.6.32.15-g746f4f0

Build Number - 3.26.651.3 CL218634 release-keys

Software Number - 3.26.651.3

Browser Version - Webkit 3.1

PRI Version - 1.40_003

PRL Version - 60668

Dunno where you got them facts, but you need to check em.
[EVO 4G General] Fixter:
Yeah. No lies in that. But if this isn't the final version. I don't think its wise to be messing with this.. Not after what *cough* bricks *cough* happened last time.
[EVO 4G General] evoguyfhp:
its working fine on my phone i love it! :D
[EVO 4G General] meatless:
data and cache wipe, no dice... still endless reboot. Guess I've got a brick!
[EVO 4G General] JArcher84:
seems to be working fine for me, but i did notice that when opening my text messages it seems a little bit longer to load all the messages. Other than that everything works great. Swype still works too.....
[EVO 4G General] m03sizlak:
Ok I stand corrected. I see your PRI got updated. Did you install the official update, or the Ava rooted version?
[EVO 4G General] ho4x:
Official, but I was not rooted prior to installing so I can't say with authority whether or not I received a PRI update. I seem to recall it being 1.40_003 prior to the update. I could be mistaken.
[EVO 4G General] meatless:
And as reported elsewhere, you can't just point an old RUU at it; it won't let you downgrade that way. This is quickly beginning to look completely hopeless.
[EVO 4G General] androtn:
I have the same problem with the video loosing frames....

P.S. I was unrooted and kept all apks and swype works fine....
[EVO 4G General] nhutpham:
PRI does NOT update, I was at 1.40 before rooting, 1.34 after rooting, and after unrooting and applying this update I'm still at 1.34
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
Well **** hopefully one of the devs can figure that out and pull the PRI out and allow us to update it as I will make a contribution to anyone that can do this and keep root.
[EVO 4G General] anubiscomplex:
solved "Verification Failed" issue

solved "Verification Failed" issue..

Seems other files on my SD card were throwing the reboot off..

I got a fresh SD card, erased/ formated card and copied the renamed "Update" file

into root of sd. (my extensions were hidden so i was actually copying "Update.zip.zip" After the card had no other files except "Update.zip" THEN my Evo installed with no issues...

hope this helps

ok, first of all, do you have microsoft .NET framework 4?

and second, did u turn on usb debugging for EVERY step?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
I wouldn't doubt that it's the HTC Sync. Keep trying it until you know for sure that it is working 100%. Also, like previously stated make sure usb debugging is on.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StuMcBill:
Does anyone have any ideas on anything I could use to clean out the headphone port?

I have gathered some fluff from my pockets in the headphone port.

Does anyone have any ideas of anything I could put in there to fill the hole while not in use?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickedpenguin:
Put your mouth over the hole and suck in really hard, but try not to choke on the fluff.

Warning: I will not be held resonsible for any death cause by this technique. :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickedpenguin:
Or this...

step 1Cut The Cue Tip

Cut the Cue Tip with the knife, or what ever you are using to cut, to desire thickness, but make sure that the Cue Tip can fit in the jack.

step 2Dip The Cue Tip

Dip the Cue Tip into 1 cap-full of Rubbing Alcohol. Make sure that the Cue Tip is soaked, but not enough to drip all over the place.

step 3Cleaning The Jack

WITH THE DEVICE TURNED OFF, stick the Cue Tip into the headphone jack and twist it around to rub all the sides of the jack. Then, let the jack dry and, there you go! One clean headphone jack.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickedpenguin:
Get one of these... They are called

The "Interdental Brush" is the key. You would be familiar with them if you ever had braces or have dentures. It is an inexpensive brush made for cleaning in tricky spaces in the mouth. It is inexpensive, refillable and easily gotten. The other thing you need is "rubbing" or isopropyl alcohol that is 70% or greater. You will notice in the picture that the brush is roughly the same size as the headphone plug.

Galaxy froyo roms ported to the nexus one is possible if so please can someone port a really good rom??? desire fully working with 720p and all???
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
The Samsung launcher has been ported. You are obviously new to the rom development scene if you think any Sense rom will be 100% portable because of camera and bluetooth hardware differences.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xghostyxjokerx:
why was the g1 able to port all difference types of roms...even till this day?? and the nexus cant and yes i know the launcher is up but it sucks honestly....
[Captivate General] alexstone:
There must be a way to remove TouchWiz and get back to a stock/vanilla Android install. There MUST.

I switched from iPhone to Android because of how open it was and how flexible the OS is, so I'm holding out hope that this TouchWiz garbage can be removed or at the very least, replaced. I just want a stock Android experience on the Galaxy S hardware.

I'm even willing to go as far as to compile Android 2.1 from source if that's something that can be done.

Any ideas?
[Captivate General] grinr:
Search these forums, there are tons of ways to undo much of TouchWiz. I think you're crazy though.
[Captivate General] alexstone:
I dont want to undo Touchwiz. I've got LockBot and LauncherPro, but I want Touchwiz just gone. I want vanilla Android (Android Prime?)
[Captivate General] eunique:
There is definitely a way to do it...

is your phone rooted?

if not, you should...then look at the Pimp My Captivate

thread..it'll show you instructions on how do it...

and you can be running LauncherPro and get rid of

ATT bloatware and Touchwiz
[Captivate General] alexstone:
Cool. Ill check that out. Yes, I'm rooted. I've removed the bloatware but didn't find a way to remove TouchWiz.

Thanks, though. At least I'm pointed in a direction, now :)
[Captivate General] systoxity:
do not remove touchwiz on your current rom. Its highly integrated with other system functions. Roms are coming, hang in there.
[Captivate General] alexstone:
Looks like this is my current position. The Pimp My Captivate guide didn't mention anything about removing TouchWiz, just kinda covering it up with other apps and plugins.

Oh well... back to the waiting game :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] adrynalyne:
I've tried a few times, but the phone portion crashes over and over.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nwgman13:
No, I have tried it a number of different ways and had no luck. I have even moved over the EPST.apk file as well and it just says no signal. This is something I would definitely like to have though as I do like some Sense apps but prefer the in-call screen from stock as it has options for Bluetooth and easier access to the dial pad.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jdkoreclipse:
It won't work. It is probably dependant on Rom specific lib /app/ etc files.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] adrynalyne:
I'm aware it won't work. I am asking to see if anyone has found a way.

I am not new rom cooking or compiling.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jdkoreclipse:
Neither am i.

I have tried this numerous ways, swapping out epst and telephony provider. I am convinced that is is a lib or etc problem.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] merkman:
I'm a AT&T customer with unlimited data for my non-Apple cellphones, and I'm running a Milestone I purchased out of Canada so I get 3G network speeds (or faster) on the AT&T network.

Recently, I used a BB Bold 9700 to watch a little bit of ESPN Mobile and I was AMAZED at how good it looked, considering it was over a 3G Data plan, low res screen, etc! So today, I downloaded the MobiTV app onto my work provided iPhone. And while I couldn't check out ESPN, the "default" demo channel looked pretty good!

The catch is, neither of these devices were my personally owned Motorola Milestone. And every attempt to download MobiTV from somewhere for install on my device has met with failure.

So I ask our development community, does anyone have MobiTV extracted from another Android cell device or something, that I might be able to install on my Milestone? If so, please PM me, and I really appreciate your time!!!
[HD2 General] nomadwgk:
Hi.

I have my hd2 for about 3 months now and i really like it, but this morning on my way to work my phone died. Screen went black while i was browsing the net. I restarted it but phone is stuck on tmobile stick together splash screen. I was still rocking original tmous rom, so I called customer service and they told me that they will ship me a new one and also that i will have another 14 day trial period with it. So basically i can return this phone and pick another one. one of my friends got vibrant yesterday and i spent some time playing with it and phone seems to be pretty nice as well plus it runs android and since my last phone was g1 i am kinda used to it. Thing is i dont really like samsung phones as i had some bad experience with them in the past, so my question is, would You change your hd2 for vibrant if you had the opportunity? if yes please explain why.
[HD2 General] maxpower097:
I just saw it at the store about 30 minutes ago. I will say this, while being a nice phone, the avatar demo movie playing on it was chopping up and glitching a bunch. Not sure if thats the phone, or the player but video on the HD2 played way smoother and cleaner. Other then that I couldn't tell you anything. And your answer from me would be, HELL NO!! The HD2 just has too much going for it compared to everyother phone. Look at the rate of progress they are deving android for it! Near the speed of light. I could see droid being your stable OS on the HD2 in under 1 month.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
The vibrant is a great phone, but not perfect either. I think in this case once again the choice just comes down to whether you get along better with Android or WM.

But, keep in mind that you'll likely never find a WM version ported to the Vibrant, where as the HD2 has several Android builds that are mostly working on it right now, and a fully-functional version should happen before very long.
[HD2 General] ryan562:
i use both phones. the hd2, primarily for work and the vibrant as my "daily driver". both phones have some setbacks. with the hd2, my biggest complaint, on the latest stock rom, has been lagging and freezing during and after sending sms and mms. i usually have to soft reset my phone during these cases.

however, i am sure flashing of some custom roms should solve this issue but i have not had the time to do so. overall, i love the build quality of the hd2 and its gorgeous 4.3" display. i'm also running a dual boot of the latest android froyo port on it and it almost runs as smooth as the android os on my vibrant.

my biggest gripes about the vibrant is its overall build quality. it's pretty much plastic all over and very lightweight. there are some creaks during vibration.

while this might be a setback it's also one of the phone's strengths. some times i forget that it's in my pocket. it's very portable/pocketable and slim. bear in mind, it's screen is 4", not that much smaller than the hd2's. also its weight literally feels like a feather vs. the weight of the hd2.

my other complaint about the vibrant is the TouchWiz skinned interface. it looks a lot like the iphone. heck, the overall look of the phone looks like the iphone 3gs. however, i soon got over that that by installing some home theme replacement apps/ui such as Launcher Pro and ADW launder free from the android market. these themed UI apps look just like vanilla froyo roms and actually run smoother then the touchwiz theme.

Overall, the vibrant is seems to run a lot smoother, quicker v. the hd2 in terms of app launching and scrolling, screen transitioning, and gaming. furthermore, texting is great. no lags nor freezes and the included swype keyboard trumps the one provided by the hd2. no lags, delays, etc whatsoever. however, there are some lags and glitches here and there when running a number of apps or when using the android market. just like the hd2 and the winmo OS, there are task killers that you can download from the android market place. and let's not forget the beautiful and vibrant (yes, tmobile got it right with this nickname) the screen is. i literally have the brightness set at 0 and it's still stands out a bit vs. my hd2 set at about 20 pct to save battery. honestly, i've never seen a smartphone reproduce such colors in terms of watching movies like avatar so vividly. i'd say it's almost on par with the beautiful display of the iphone 4.

if you decide to purchase the vibrant, make use of the 14 day return period. make use of the android market and look in to this website, xda and see what the vibrant is capable of. rooting is SUPER easy on this phone and a froyo build should be coming out soon from team cyanogen (i.e. wes garner). The official OTA on android 2.2 will likely be out by the end of September for this phone as well.
[HD2 General] mfrey0118:
I had an Android phone for about 18 months, and I've had my HD2 for about 4...

I love the HD2. Best phone I've ever had. The G1 was cool when it came out, and I was impressed initally, but it only took a week or so before it started to get "buggy". Once I rooted it, nothing imporved and I was constantly out of touch for hours at a time due to booting, wiping, flashing, etc...

HD2 totally different story. Say what you will about Windows Mobile 6.5, but it is very customizable and powerful, capable of many great feats. Not nearly as proprietary as iPhone or the upcoming WP7. And as of now as far as I know Microsoft is on record as stating they will be supporting and upgrading 6.5 for the next two years at least even though WP7 will be out.

The HD2 is very quick. The stock Opera browser, while not having native flash is very quick to load full media-rich pages. Having Office 2010 preloaded is a big plus for me, also.

I play the Ferrari GT Evolution game all the time, and since I got a class 6 SD Card, there is very little lag or stutter at all, graphics are very imressive. I know the Vibrant has a better screen but I think the HD2's is good enough to where this would not be considered a "deal breaker" (like not having a freakin' flash on your top model phone, I mean, come on, Samsung, is everyone there shooting meth?).

I have not had any problems with MMS, Text, or Facebook or Twitter on my HD2. All run very smoothly. I have 5 email accounts up and synching nicely.

As far as watching movies, if you have to run them side by side to tell the difference, again, I file it in the "not a dealbreaker" category. All I know is I can watch True Blood in H264 just fine on my HD2 and not even use 35% of the battery.

Battery life on the HD2 for me seems to be about a full day, plus a half if not having wifi on all the time.

People complain about the size but I love it. I like having a big, solidly-built smartphone that I know is sitting in my pocket and not going anywhere.

Anyway, I haven't played with the Vibrant yet so I can't do a comparison, but the flash for me is a big one, because I use the camera on my HD2 constantly. But my advice would be not to write off the HD2 just because of everything you hear about it. Give it a shot. It's a great phone.

Hope that helps.
[HD2 General] ryan562:
to be fair, the op was asking about the vibrant. i also have a rooted g1 and i'd have to say the vibrant murders the g1 in every aspect. i have not rooted the vibrant out of the box because of how much internal memory it has (16 gb) and its blazing speed.
[HD2 General] mfrey0118:
To be accurate, they were asking if anyone would trade their HD2 for the Vibrant. I simply wanted to have an opportunity to let the OP know that his HD2 experience may be the exception rather than the norm, and to familiarize himself with how to use the device instead of simply giving up on it.
[HD2 General] nomadwgk:
Thx for the replys.

I decided to stick with hd2. I flashed a custom rom same day i got my replacement and it really improved speed of the phone and everything work as smooth as i expected. On top of that im runing darkstone's froyo now and im loving it.
[HD2 General] hegemytouch:
No i wouod keep the hd2 but thats just me...but i agree with you on the samsung topic they really arent the greatest...

I am looking to buy the samsung vibrant at the lowest possible price without signing a contract, as I'll be moving to Africa in a few months for work.

I had heard of that costco was selling them for $250 off contract, and after rushing to the nearest costco to snatch up one(or 2), i was disappointed to find it had been increased to $479.99

Does anyone know anywhere that has it cheaper. I'm already selling my xperia x10 to put towards the purchase

Thanks
[Vibrant General] Blueman101:
Yeah the costco deal ended a few weeks ago. I believe you could sign a contract for a 99$ phone then pay the 200$ ETF and get the phone for 300$. Im not sure if there are any negatives but I think that is currently the only way to get one for less then the full off contract price, unless anyone else knows about something I dont.

Oh, there is the Bing cashback route, get 35% off the off-contract phone, so you can get the phone for 325$.
[Vibrant General] skesseks:
I was able to get the phone from the t-mobile site for 146USD, but that was with a contract.
