I tried to install HSPL but unfotunately it stops & my phone is not working. My HD2 hangs when HTC logo comes. I also try to copy stock ROM in SD card whilst pressing voldown & power keys, tricolour screen appeared & says:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x40

Then the phone hangs.

Could anyone tell me what is ROM flashing tool & what version should I install.

Please help me.
[HD2 General] gillgrylls:
are you flashing the ROM on a different micro sd card? you cant use a 8GB or 16GB. Try a smaller card like a 1GB or 2GB.

also rename the stock ROM to LEOIMG.nbh.

put that ROM file on a smaller card and go into bootloader should come right up. worked for me when i had to re-install stock to return defective unit.

I have tried about every ROM known to man...It seems that APPS2SD incorporated Roms or Froyo have lagging on apps and such. Will it be beneficial to buy a faster SD card like a class 6....
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpa111:
I have a class 6 any any intensive apps I put on the phones memory. I find some lag more on the card.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waybones:
so the more intense app...(i.e. cpu resources,memory) you install to phone and the more less intensive apps to class 6 card?

I found that the data usage record in att's OLAM has "wap.cingular" in the TO/FROM column, unlike "phone" in iphone's case.

Does this mean that my aria is connected to a proxy server?
[HTC Aria General] seattleboi1982:
not always, phone is the apn iphones use, wap.cingular is what everyother pone uses. it depends on what data plan your provisioned for.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] blackg1000:
Hi, I'm going out of my mind trying to get to 2.1 but I need to update to the .66 from February.

I'm using Windows 7 32bit and once or twice I have managed to get the phone to start to update but it comes back with error 170. I've tried everything I can think of. Downloaded the drivers and updated but in Device Manager I have either 'HTC Dream ADB Composite Interface' or in disk drives 'HTC Android Phone USB'.

Is there any way I can boot the update from my SD card?

Any help will be fantastic.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] danielferguson:
I'm having this exact same problem, tried updating the drivers but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings folks,

Try the following :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7404108&postcount=94

Make sure you have the right settings under " USB debugging "

Settings - Applications - Development

Or why not root and use another rom like SenseHero B5.1

This is the one i like the most by far,

Means you have to downgrade your ROM version to 2.73.61.5Â

More information :

http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/

Nice and easy to follow and ever time i go back to a RRU file from orange only ever lasts about 2 days at the most,

Regards

Steven
[Hero, G2 Touch General] blackg1000:
Thanks for the reply Steven.

Can I just clarify that if I follow the www.theunlockr.com method by rooting the phone I can then load the official .66 firmware? If this is the way to do it, where can I get that firmware from?

To be honest, I'm not wanting to put on any other custom firmwares and I want to update to the HTC official 2.1 firmware only.

Thanks again for any help.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Steven_belfast:
No no rooting was only to use custom roms,

How ever if it comes to it flash to another rom and then back to .66

First you need to get orange RRU ROM version 2.73.61.5 from

http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=283&cat=2&dl_id=675

Flash this and on first boot you should get a message to advise of a update,

No need to finish setting the phone up but go a head with the download,

Once downloaded it will flash a new radio and reboot,

Then you should have .66

I was still trying to get 2.1 from orange last night,

Ever time i asked it to check for updates it said it was up to date all ready yet still on 15

Back to using a custom rom again today,

Hope your able to get sorted soon folks.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] blackg1000:
Sorted. Updated it with my mates laptop running Vista. Updating to 2.1 now. THANK GOD!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Steven_belfast:
Glad your all up and running man,

Can you inform us on how you did it for the information of others !

Any chance of screenies of 2.1 orange rom ?

And is it that much better ?

[Desire Themes and Apps] lrbofficial:
hi one and all i'm new to this android bumf ;) (be kind) :P

i will receive a lovely htc desire as of tomorrow. what I would like to know is there an app on the android market for customizing each panels background so that each panel wallpaper is different.

Cheers for your time :)

R B
[Desire Themes and Apps] GANJDROID:
Depends what you mean. By panel, do you mean screen? You can only have one wallpaper at a time. However, if you download CrazyHome (when you get your lovely new phone anyway :)) you essentially get 3 home themes at the same time. You just swipe up for each theme. Each theme is customisable like the stock screen, but you can have different wallpapers for each 3. :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] lrbofficial:
well what i am meaning is

for each section a different walpaper :P

example

Panel one: abstract back ground

Panel 2: grafitti background

panel 3: landscape background

Panel 4 (middle panel) me and the lady or what ever lol

etc

Summary: Use your Windows Mobile phone as WiFi hotspot

I don't know if this works just found it by accident.
[Nexus One General] southeastbeast:
Hello everyone,

I know there has been discussion on why UMA (UMA uses data if connected to WiFi for calls thus not using any minutes and is usable out of country and treated like a local call) is only available on T-Mobile Blackberries.

With Android someone could cook up a workaround which would make a WiFi hotspot and connect to itself, which would tether the data connection BACK to the phone and have UMA enabled at all times. Probably something with iptables and routing on different interfaces. Thus no minutes would be used. That would be AWESOME. I mean Google Voice is sweet but having a crazy phone number sucks. LOL

Just my two cents >;]
[Nexus One General] newdeepdan:
If I remember correctly when I had my 9700 about 4 months ago, UMA did in fact use your minutes unless you had their hotspot plan.
[Nexus One General] disgustip8ted:
im not sure what you mean by this, i only give out my gv number to anything, it rings where i tell it to, home, my cell, or the voip app on my phone or desktop. same with outgoing calls.
[Nexus One General] southeastbeast:
No I mean using my GV number for all calls to avoid using minutes (semi moot point because I have $50/unlimited minutes) but I want to cut back my bill even cheaper =)

I used to have a bold 9700 from Nov-Jan until I got this N1, and I thought it didn't use minutes =/

**Edit***

Upon further investigation it was changed around December when they started charging for @Home to make it not count towards minutes LOL

Also found this link while perusing the interwebs

http://www.androidguys.com/2010/05/13/rumor-tmobile-test-uma-calling-android-handsets/

Maybe we will be getting UMA soon =O
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
Google voice uses minutes.
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
I believe the standard practice for using it to avoid minutes involves having a myFaves option on your account (no longer available) and setting the GV number as one of the favorites. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong, as I don't use this technique - but I do have myFaves...)

Does anyone know how to change the color of the text on buttons? Ive been messing around with my phone a lot and have somehow changed the color to white and now I cant see the text on buttons. I'm running kaos froyo but all of the framework-res has been replaced. I have tried colorchanger.jar but it doesn't control these colors and I cant seem to find what file it is?

I have found a great looking theme that has all it's graphics in the drawable-hdmi folder. The only thing I need to do to use them is resize them to same size as the corresponding file for our phone, correct? Basically spinner_black.png has to be the same dimensions as the original.

Also I want to take the spinner, wait, icon out of the NFL mobile app and use it in my theme. I have been reading a lot and trying to figure this out on my own. I am now able to read all xml files in plain readable English and am able to convert it back to binary. I still don't know what all the java means but I'm trying to learn that now. Does anyone know any easy way to find what I'm looking for or should I just wait and figure it out with the knowledge of more java.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] PimpShit420:
For those who are interested the resources.arsc file found in framework-res.apk is where the control of the color of buttons is located. I dont know how to decompile it into readable form yet but that is what controls colors and size of images for some things. Colors for the notification bar is held is services.jar so at least Im making some headway. I will keep posting small things I find here to help anyone wanting to make there own themes.

[Droid Incredible General] arlindemini:
I tried searching (didn't find anything), and maybe its over a lot of general users heads, but... since there are appear to be issues with hosting, download speeds, etc... wouldn't it make sense for people to torrent some of the ROM/RADIO/PATCH/ETC. releases? (Especially in the first 24 hours)
[Droid Incredible General] DeeBG:
If the releases were over 1GB then I would agree, but as it is now using free hosting (don't forget people, you can dump files into your Dropbox "Public" folder and then copy the link to provide a direct download to files... I've done this with a few large files and haven't received any complaints or warnings from the Dropbox folks and of course there are other sites like 4shared/mediafile/etc) seems to be working out just fine. Although I have been busy with work and other projects so maybe there is a crisis I am unaware of. I am personally very pro-BT, but only when a lot of data needs to be pushed out or data needs to be pushed out to a lot of sources (I created a tiny [under 100kB compiled =)] BT program for use in updating/making backups of MySQL databases across 45 servers in 8 different geological locations... it has sped things up 10x at the very least).
[Hero CDMA General] Pauper7:
Doing the *#*#4636#*#* trick some choose EvDO some choose CDMA...which is better and why choose one over the other? and does this truly help?
[Hero CDMA General] ipfreelytech:
EVDO is for data transmission (EVolutionDataOnly) and is frequently used as an overlay for cdma networks. Cdma is data and voice (albeit only 144kbps data). You'll notice that when there is either SMS or voice activity the modem switches to cdma mode.

"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evdo"

"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cdma"

If your in an area with good evdo coverage try the EVDO setting which i would think would give the phone preference for high speed data, although that seems to be the usual way the phone operates without any changes made to that menu.

[XPERIA X10 General] SMP-16:
Hey,

Just got my phone 2 days ago. I charged it twice fully so far.

When it was fresh out of the box it only had around half a charge; I let it die fully and then charged it over night when I went to bed.

Next day let it die and then today charged it while I was at work via the USB cable connected to the computer. It took aprox 7 hours to charge from 0 - 100%. This seems freakishly long?!

My old iPhone 3G charged in 2 - 3 hours fully; if not less.

Is this abnormal?
[XPERIA X10 General] avariel:
I've never done the charging with the USB connected to the cable. But from reading the forums here, I understand that charging via the computer takes longer as compared to charging via a wall outlet.
[XPERIA X10 General] yetep:
Power output from computer is 5v...

Socket (in uk) nearly 50x that.. Other places at least 20x....

Go figure ;-)
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
That's not how it works...a socket still charges at 5V, but provides higher current.

Mine usually takes about the same amount of time form 0% through USB, but if you do it through the wall charger, it's about half that time...
[XPERIA X10 General] azian_advanced:
it's not the voltage but it's the number of milliamps (mA) that determines how fast the phone will charge. USB ports output at most 500 mA while the stock charger outputs 700-750 mA (i can't remember the exact number).
[XPERIA X10 General] yetep:
There was me thinking I was clever lol
[XPERIA X10 General] trojjanhorse:
He's right. The stock charger's output is 700mA. If it were higher, the battery would overheat and could potentially damage it. My macbook's USB port outputs about 325mA, so it should take about half the time on an AC wall plug.
[XPERIA X10 General] SMP-16:
duh, of course. Why didnt I think of that ..

Thanks guys
[XPERIA X10 General] SysGhost:
The mA rating of the charger itself doesn't matter that much. As long it can provide the current (mA) the device needs it'll suffice.

5 volts - 1000 mA charger or a 5 volts 100 000 000 mA charger. They both provide the needed current the device need to draw, and the device will cahrge just as good on the 100 000 000 mA one.

The device has two charging modes: "Slow charge" and "Fast charge"

These two modes are needed due to the USB port standards.

A normal computer USB port can only provide 500 mA at a maximum.

A power-enhanced USB port can provide much more.

Chargers following the microUSB charging standards, are in fact Power-enhanced USB-ports (but with the computer stripped away. ;) )

The device can sense what kind of port it's connected to, depending on how the data-pins in the USB-plug are configured.

If it's a normal USB port, it enters "Slow charge" mode to prevent overloading the USB port (which would cause the USB-port to shut down)

Here the device only draws a limited amount of current due to the limited mA rating of the USB-port.

If it's a Power-enhanced USB port, it enters "Fast charge" mode.

Here the device draw the needed current to charge the battery as fast as safely possible.

See the mA rating as "maximum power available".

A 100 000 000 mA charger wont force the device to charge in 2 seconds, it just have 100 000 000 mA available.

It's up to the devices how much power they need to draw.

There is a "failsafe": If the device cannot draw the current needed for "Fast charge" it will revert back to "Slow charge", and if that's not possible, it simply won't charge at all.

There are two kinds of USB chargers/power supplies:

The "Real deal": It's designed to be a charger and follows the full standards for USB-charging.

The "Dumb one": This one is only designed to be a power supply for "dumb devices", such as USB toys, simple devices, external harddisks etc...

They both look alike, but the difference are one of them are designed do be a charger, the other one a dumb power supply.

Phones usually cannot charge from those "dumb ones" without some modification.

The dumb one can be modified to act as a charger, fooling the device thinking it's a charger:

This modification can be easily done via an adapter or simply modifying the cable itself.

Simply short the Data pins, or sink them to the +/- wires with 10 kOmhs resistors.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Well now... So, I looked at the source for libril, which is 'ril.cpp' and found that the Cupcake version only has 5 different states for RIL_RadioState. Donut+ has 10... So, Cupcake is not going to know anything about state 8.

It's entirely possible that I'm barking up the wrong tree. I have no idea why there would be some code in there from anything other than Cupcake. I took two Cupcake based ROMs, one stock and one long abandoned.

Anyway. More fun!

[Vibrant General] robschoenfeld@live.com:
Does anyone know how to sync a playlist file that the stock Vibrant Music play can actually read? I've tried everything I can think of such as:

1. Doubletwist

2. Samsung Kies

3. Sailing

4. Tunes Agent

5. Media Monkey

6. Windows Media Player

The default music player is not reading any playlist file formats created by those options. I've spoken with Samsung and TMobile and they couldn't offer an advice. This is terrible frustrating to me as the stock player is rather good.

I believe that the stock music player is only reading playlist files from a partition that we can't access as none that I've created are visible.

Thanks for the help.

I'm pretty sure that the OP means creating a playlist that will then show up *as a playlist* in the Music Player app on the phone when it is synced with the music. Or for that matter just copied to the drive.

If someone has an answer, I'd be very interested, as I have a ton of different playlists I've created out of my collection that I'd prefer not to have to recreate on the phone from scratch.

I'm planning on using Banshee (in Fedora) to sync my music to the phone, I don't know if it will get any playlists across or not, but it doesn't sound like it.
