[Captivate General] CaptivateDroid2:
There was a post that read that if the Samsung Captivate had any files that were longer than 16 characters / digits, the linking process would fail. the MTP app just wouldn't work and you'd get the drivers that fail on the PC.

I went through my phone deleted all files that referenced as above, 16 characters + mostly pictures where Samsung Captivate defaults give pictures long file names..... plus a sky browser whose files were all 16 + chracaters long.

After this, my phone connected just fine and is working fine. Even after taking more pictures, 16 characters file extensions, dont seem to matter once the intial connection is set. This is why many people on this post sasy to reformat your internal SD card. DON"T DO THAT!

I hope people read this, so they can load the Kies software before loading any programs, etc.

ALSO, IF IN THE US, WHEN YOU DOWNLOD THE KIES PROGRAM FROM ANY OTHER COUNTRY, DO NOT PICK USA AS YOUR HOME COUNTRY BECAUSE THEN, THE PROGRAM DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO DOWNLOAD SAMSUNG APPS SINCE ATT HAS THAT NASTY NOOSE AROUND THEIR NECK.

IF YOU DO PUERTO RICO, UK OR EVEN CANADA, YOU CAN USE THE SAMSUNG APPS FEATURE WITHIN THE KIES SOFTWARE APP.

SO DUMB, WITH ALL OF OUR FREEDOMS, WE ALLOW MONOPOLIE TO IMPOSE SUCH RESTRICTIONS. AT TIMES I REALLY WONDER WHERE ALL THE ANTI-TRUST LAWS ARE!?
[Captivate General] coldbeverage:
You went through each file? HOW? I am having the same problem but I don;t feel like counting extensions!
[Captivate General] vn1977:
You can just mount your internal storage and move all the files off onto your PC, then get Kies working and move everything back afterward. Worked for me.
[Captivate General] pechroc1:
moved all my files but still no connection... ARRGGH! this is rediculous.
[Desire General] the_ahmadzais:
I'm having a problem, when I send a text to someone and they reply,their message goes above my message instead of below.my message. So instead of in order like my message and then theirs and then mine and then theirs stand and etc i have to keep scrolling above all my messages to read theirs, and the time on text says like 6pm when it is 10pm . i dont know whats wrong i just bought it 2 days ago and have problems with it
[Desire General] quicksite:
Can I suggest that you solve this the simplest way -- which is by using one of the highest recommended APPS out there? Handcent SMS --- It gives you complete and total customization control over every aspect of the interface of both the text entry/ conversation space -- as well as the list of conversations -- including:

control over the issue you want: inverted order

But also: background color (or image), sender text bubble color background, sender font type, font color, font size; receiver text bubble background, font type, color, size -- and DATE font, color, size, as well as spacing between items.

As well as overall theme/skin --- such as "HTC HERO" style or IPHONE style or ANDROID style or HANDCENT style or custom.

And all of the above font and color controls are settable for the CONVERSATION LIST as well...

Hope that helps. I actually don't know if the native app or HTC app has that inverted flow control or not.
[Desire General] ls1971:
First thing to check is your time/timezone. If it's wrong, the phone will think you sent the message later than the reply and put the reply before your outgoing text.

I had this myself so I know it can happen.
[Desire General] the_ahmadzais:
the time and time zone is correct i checked . its wierd cuz in normal phones messages goes down and on my desire i have to scroll up to see it
[Desire General] Tenhi:
I have a same problem here, but not for all messages. Only for those coming from specific network(s). I think the problem is in their SMS server time settings. It's annoying sometimes, but I can live with it :)...

When someone sends me a message from my provider, it's all fine...

EDIT: There's some fix here on XDA for those from USA (if that's the case). Try searching the forums...
[Desire General] AndroHero:
its because the time is set incorectly on there fone thats why
[Desire General] Jaa-Yoo:
Its really because HTC have coded their messaging app to read the time-stamp of the SMS. The time-stamp that was assigned by the server that it came from, which could be hours different from your time. Its been a known problem since the beginning of sense UI back on WinMo! Most other phones/apps just use the phones time as a time-stamp. When the message comes in, its stamped with whatever time is currently on your phone.

Take quicksites recommendation and get Hancent, its an awesome messaging app. :cool:
[Desire General] AndroHero:
i live in the uk and only text people in the uk so im alrite we only have one timezone :D lol
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Well two time zones that we switch into during certain times of the year :p

okay, my charging port just broke, so i can't connect to usb, and i have 30 percent battery, and i want to take this to sprint tomorrow, but its rooted. i want to RUU, but i cant because i can't connect via USB. how do i get rid of my root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistersquirrle:
You could probably get away without unrooting it, if you just bring it in with a dead battery and say the mizcro USB port is broken. Lots of people on here have said that they returned their Evos without the reps even looking at them.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gudda1:
might want to change the title of your thread so in the future it can be found easier when searching...

good info..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alanmw86:
Well, When I worked at a "A" store for sprint for the last couple of years (A meaning service and repair with extremely high traffic) a broken port is considered physical damage and shouldn't be replaced at the store level....without you paying a fee, so if you have insurance your probably going to just end up paying 100$ and having them send you one anyway.

per policy.....

now... I mentioned that we were an A store because some of the third party repair stores or smaller ones will overlook some physical damage...hit or miss.

But policy says your boned.

just a thought.

second thought.... if you want DONT mention that the port is broken, and brick your phone by trying to flash it or something and let the battery die at the same time haha.

and go in and be like, yo man, my phone wont turn on.

third thought.... alot of sprint employees dont care or dont know WTF rooting your phone is, make it look stock and they arent going to check to see if its rooted, they will only notice if something is crazy looking..and even then just say oh yeah its a mod from the market i forget what its called...

I worked for sprint for 3 years... trust me, we don't care, be nice and you'll probably just be fine. stay away from the managers, more likely to send you away.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
My store up here they know whay flashing and rooting is... only because they do it also.. the guy who sold me the phone told me about the free teethering by rooting... but didnt tell me to not update..

sent from my Evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freddyamazin:
I don't think they'll care. LOL. It's just rooting your choice + i think it's legal now ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x iFLaWz:
It is legal, but under the sprint protection and crap they say tampering and messing with the phone and what not, makes that all go away.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voodoo55:
i expected something else... but you did get yourself in a pickle. my first instinct would be to fix it myself. sounds like you physically broke the connections to the usb plug? might just need a quick pass of a soldering iron. it's just that people are so quick to get rid of an electronic device when the fix can be so simple. -not saying thats your situation; it's only the thought in my head at the moment. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kris54241:
Rooting is legal with all insurance until u flash a software...anyway...broke USB port should b covered at store level...I've had my camera lens crack on previous phones and they got me a free replacement
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 6ixtynin9:
Sprint is ok with rooting/hacking/softmodding of their phones. At least the California branches are. They don't ebrace or encourage you to hack your phone, but if you walk in with one, they won't sent you packing even after they detected it. In the past, my HTC Touch's screen started going bad, so I brought it in to get it repaired. Right off the bat, the store manager knew it was softmodded; he actually questioned me about apps and compared his custom rom with mines. I thought it was weird, and feeling confident, I asked him isn't it against store policy to hack the phones? His exact words were: "No, we actaully support it. We, as well as every other users, knows, Sprint and manufacturers does not make quick enough updates; therefore, many users turn to developers for help. Sprint is begining to see that custom ROMs are benifiting more and more users. We want to be able to retain/gain customers instead of lose, even if that means a little sacrafice (in this case, phone hacking). As long as our customer are happy, we are happy." I was like "WOW, Sprint is cool with phone modding"!!! I had AT&T before and my sister currently has Verizon, and no way in hell were they this cool about phone softmodding. As far as rooting/installing custom rom goes, I just hope there's no mass mob of idioits who repeatedly bricks their phone and bring it in for warranty. It might be the only reason why Sprint would probably turn their heads away from accepting rooted/hacked phones.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alanmw86:
INCORRECT INCORRECT INCORRECT, Its people with your attitude that came into the store and gave me a nightmarish headache.

what in the world makes you think a physically damaged product is covered under a limited warranty? it is not.

you may have gotten lucky, or someone was stupid, or someone was really nice to you and replaced your phone because of the camera lens crack but dont continue the stupid cycle by saying "it should be taken care of" NO IT SHOULDN'T why cant people comprehend someone just did you a solid? dont expect it, appreciate it.

cause I will tell you right now its no ones policy anywhere to replace anything thats been damaged for free.

Physical damage always has and always will be directed to asurion unless someone feels like being nice to you, OR because the item is defective.

Broken camera lens and broken charging port DO NOT fall into that category.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alanmw86:

Hello,

Is it possible to get the emoji smileys (the Same as in iPhone) on my wildfire to communicate with an iPhone owners?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
Hi everyone!

I'm terribly sorry if I write something that's been solved. But i searched throughout this forum as well as the internet, and I'm desperatedly turning to you guys,

because I'm completely lost

So I have two HTC Magic, the one writes in fastboot:

32A SHIP S-ON

H

H-BOOT-1.76.0009

CPLD-12

the other:

(As I know) is a 32B (but that's all I know so far) because when I turn it on, it only shows the vodafone logo and hangs forever...

Yes I tried to boot up with "volume-down" button, tried with "home" button, with "back" button, and also with "home"+"back" buttons; I tried to take out the battery for 10-20 minutes, but it always shows the vodafone splash screen...

UPDATE

Now I remember what happened to 32B Magic: I tried to flash the recovery via fastboot

bit it sad "FAILED (remote not allow)" I found out, that maybe I have perfected SPL. Than I followed this "[How-To] Fix perfected SPL (fastboot remote: not allow)" tutorial here in xda-devs,

and after I flashed the ROM "v2.16.151.1", happened this splash screen mis(t)ery... Could it be, it's bricked?:S Was it the wrong ROM? How should I have known which is good??

And just in case I have an other problem with the 32A one as well. I followed the "TheUnlockr.com one click root" tutorial, ok, at least i tried, but when I try to flash the recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img in recovery flasher in the phone it says:

"Backup FAILED: Could not run command."

PLEASE! SOMEONE! HELP! I have these two great phones for... almost nothing. I'm totally desperate...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
Is saying a "go to hell" or a "you are totally dumb" so hard?

it's already 88 views... I don't think noone has a helpful or useless advice.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nixxofugi:
You and i are in the same boat. I just ran into the same issue today. Lemme know if you figured it out i'm dying to find out also. Hopefully someone here has the correct answer.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
For the one that won't boot into fastboot (back+power), hboot (volume down+power), recovery (home+power), or the regular OS, you've bricked your phone.

I have no experience with the one-click root method so I'm not going to comment on the other.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
I can tell you, I spent some weeks with searching, and there is no exact answer... not until some competent and experienced volunteers start to move their asses and look after these tiny losers, us. I say sorry to those "volunteers" for the previous expression...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
Thanks for your reply DonJuan692006, that was the answer I was afraid of...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
Ok, I consider that the one which hangs is bricked (oh hell).

But what is with my other problem?

Again: On the 32A the Recovery Flasher says "Backup FAILED: Could not run command." I tried to flash the recovery via fastboot USB but it sad "FAILED (remote not allow)"

So the question is: Is it something with the SPL? Do I need to flash a sappimg.nbh with goldcard? If yes which one should I flash exactly?

Again: PLEASE!!! I know there are a bunch of guys out there who know these issues and their potential solutions.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ju2tin:
UPDATE:

I solved the issue with the 32A by following a guide from wiki.cyanogenmod.

Well, if surely noone has a word about my (other) bricked HTC, I consider this case as closed... :(
[HD2 General] MGA2009:
Hi.

I have a T-Mobile HD2 with:

Digitizer Broken (solderless)

LCD Broken (P/N 60H00300-00P)

Do you think there is any possibility to use a complete assembly with :

Digitizer (soldered)

LCD (P/N 60H00295-00P)

Is it compatible? Any length difference?

Best Regards.
[HD2 General] MGA2009:
No one knows?

US T-Mobile housing is 1.5mm longer than HTC T8585.

But maybe if you change entire lcd+digitizer assembly it will fit.

I ask this because of a shortage on US T-Mobile HD2 lcd...
[HD2 General] tally_pj:
I have a broken lcd on my tmous hd2 and am looking for a new lcd. The one that came out of my phone is the solderless one with the small pin connector you just clamp down. The lcd part # on it is 83h00242-05. And the touch screen part # is 60h00300-00p. Ive looked on ebay for just the lcd but they all seem to be for the one you have to solder, part # 60h00295 i think. If anyone finds the solderless lcd one could you post a link on here to it?
[HD2 General] lebmb:
i came across this

http://cgi.ebay.com/T-MOBILE-HTC-HD...N-INTEGRATED-/170528488088?pt=PDA_Accessories

my glass is broken so im getting that one

or

http://cgi.ebay.com/T-MOBILE-HTC-HD...70528488088?pt=PDA_Accessories#ht_1845wt_1014

Please let me know.

Thanks
[HD2 General] MGA2009:
If it is an HTC (non US T-Mobile HD2) then you should get this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-Touch-HD2-H...Accessories&hash=item43a1246e01#ht_750wt_1139

It is soldered.

You should RE CHECK by disassembling and check the part numbers. You are going to need to disassemble anyways.
[HD2 General] ookba:
Just to clarify, there are only 2 digitizers available, USA version and non-USA version. If you buy the Digitizer/LCD combo (already together), it doesn't matter which you get although the USA version will say T-Mobile on top. Both 60H00300-00P and 60H00295-00P are the same other than the way the digitizer connects to the LCD (soldered- 295, connected- 300). Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] MGA2009:
You are right, but I heard that NON US model's digitizer is 2mm shorter that US one.

That would mean that the whole housing is different and probably won't fit.

I've only used US T-Mobile version of HD2 so can't confirm this.

It will be very nice to know if a US version would work with a NON US motherboard and vice versa.

Best Regards.
[HD2 General] ookba:
I can confirm that the 60H00300-00P part # USA TMO digitizer is identical to the non-US one, 60H00295-00P in length, width, and size. The only difference is the way the LCD and digitizer mount to each other. You cannot use a TMO digitizer with a non-US LCD and vice versa. I had an opportunity to compare a T8585 (US) and a T9193 (non-US) and the only differences are in the housing and motherboard. The MB on the T8585 (US) is a tiny bit bigger, thats why TMO had to use a slightly larger housing. Everything else is the same (except for frequencies, etc.). I am currently using a 60H00300-00P (US) in my T9193 (non-US) without any problems at all.
[HD2 General] Steeltippin:
Nice, so as long as they are a matching pair it doesn't matter, you can put a matching LCD+Digitizer from a non-TMO HD 2 into a TMO HD 2 and vice versa?
[HD2 General] Mandrakeroot:
Anyone tried if the Digitizer/LCD combo (pre-assembled) are really interchangeable??? :confused:

I have a HD2 (EU-version) where the LCD+digitizer+touch glass is broken. I will buy a digitizer/LCD combo because that will be easier, and as far as I can understand there are two versions;

one combo with the 60H00300-00P (US, non-soldered), and

one combo with the 60H00295-00P (non-US, soldered).

I have a US-version combo at hand, but I need to be absolute sure if the US-version combo fits and work with my EU-phone before I buy.

So, again; anyone really tried if it works?? :)
[HD2 General] wwwalex:
Any news on this matter? Thank you.
[HD2 General] carlosliang:
You can find the screen+LCD on ebay for about $70, but the quarlity is so so easy to break when you make the change.
[HD2 General] klhd:
as said before by ookba it should work.

Can you confirm that too?

I'm going to buy the US lcd + touchscreen for my EU HD2, to avoid soldering... hope it's gonna work :D
[HD2 General] stevediaz:
Get the combo because I have been seeing alot of videos on the soldered ones and the touchscreen stop working, so stick to the combo
[HD2 General] bib*oops:
Don't worry, it'll work for sure:

the 2 versions of combo(EU & US) are interchangeable with no reserve!
