[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
a boot loop is normally caused by an incorrect flash, either by the recovery just being weird or the phone not correctly wiping prior to flashing. Did you make backup before you flashed?

If so here is what you do.

Boot into recovery

go to wipe

wipe "data"

wipe "cache"

and wipe "dalvik-cahe" (so long as you only select these three your sd card will remain untouched)

(if you want to resstore back to stock)

go to restore/backup

hit restore nandroid

select the restore point

(if you want to continue to install CM6)

go to "install zip from sd car"

select the zip

once done install the gapps zip (if you donwloaded it)

reboot

Done
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan_Singer:
How do I get it to boot into recovery?

When I remove the battery, and then power it on, it goes right back into the boot loop.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan_Singer:
Nevermind. It's working now. I think I forgot to wipe first.

Thanks so much for your help, everyone!

for the first time since ive had sprint im getting the speed they've always claimed but ive never reached...im just wondering if anyone in and around pearland can tell me if they have similar speeds....i just know this isnt going to last but still a bit excited my 3g has never reached 3 or even crept past 1
[EVO 4G General] ericmcintire:
I got 9 down in beverly hills yesterday with 4G, that was cool.
[EVO 4G General] om4:
lol im so excited because well i have never seen 3Mbps on 3g on sprint, ive gotten 889kbps at most, i now this wont hold up for very long because if it could my 3g here wouldnt be so shoddy...this whole town is saturated in 4g and i cant get it on my evo for more then a min before losing it and my neighbor who has a franklin 4g stick gets 2bars and 500kbps on 4g...its ridiculous
[EVO 4G General] bharris25:
I used to get 3 mbs down speed at the beginning of last year in the St. Louis area in 3g but its slower now but 4g is about 4.95 down now.
[EVO 4G General] twigs187:
4G Speed in Baltimore isn't bad either :p
[EVO 4G General] om4:
The speed test app isn't very accurate, download xtreme labs test app, its a bit more accurate, speakeasy website I think is better then speedtest.net and just like I figured my 3Mbps over 3g is back down to 600kbps :(
[EVO 4G General] bedoig:
Best I ever got on 3G was about 2.6mbps. Got a little over 7 on 4G the other day in downtown Houston. Those 10+ speeds are awesome.

[EVO 4G General] dark_dj27:
The 3g in my area always runs at 1.5 to 2.3 but its a small town with not many sprint users.... Sadly I'll probably never see 4g :(

[HD Mini General] dnyanesh1000:
I bought this phone just a week ago and my computer does not recognize it when connected using the USB cable that came in the package. When I move the cable a little bit, it gets recognized sometimes. I suspect there's a problem with either the cable or the phone's port. I want to upgrade its ROM to the newer version announced by HTC a few days ago. Is it possible to flash ROM via an SD card?
[HD Mini General] kdwms:
Not the answer to your specific question, but on the subject of your PC not talking to the Mini, your PC isn't running Vista by any chance? I had to update the Windows Mobile Device Center from the MS web site before my two would talk to each other.
[HD Mini General] dnyanesh1000:
I went to an HTC care center today and they replaced the defective data cable. My computer detects my phone now. I'm happy with the service they gave.

I'm not going to buy any HTC product ever again. After having spent Rs.18900/- (this is definitely a big amount for a middle class Indian citizen like me) for a phone, it is NOT ACCEPTABLE to find a defective data cable in the package.

As far as flashing ROM from a SD card is concerned, I'm still curious. Can someone please tell me what to rename RUU_signed.nbh as? Also, how to enter the manual boot loader mode?
[HD Mini General] hazhysalon:
-----------------------

I lost the headphone, and I hardly found a place to buy a new one. I paid $ 40 for the new headphone. You are right, meet too, I will never buy another product of htc, very expensive. Even, I wrote to the company and they replied to me but they don't do anything because they know that customers are stupid.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NielDK:

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcidRoot:
No there is supposed to be a new feature in froyo and a web based desktop accessible market that you can use to install apps remotely similar to app brains fast web install.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NielDK:
right. Googled a bit. Seems like it is work in progress. I guess Froyo makes it possible and Google is working on the web market.

Ok, so when I first got my myTouch 3G Slide I expanded the screens from 5 to 7, but now I want to bring it back down to five screens. Is there anyway to do this without factory reseting my phone?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Nope, you have to reset it or just goto a new rom(if rooted)...Unless someone else knows a secret way...Anyway that's your only option now unless rooted roms let you go back and fourth.

Did this on accident when messing with the phone

I cleared the HTCsense cache and it reset to 5 screens and cleared all the icons from them

but in order to get back to 7 you'd have to do factory reset
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RavenWulf:
if you're willing to give up using the Sense UI you can download either ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro from the market, they both allow you set the number of screens without resetting the phone...personally I prefer Launcher Pro you can't go wrong with either one.

[EVO 4G Accessories] jigglywiggly:
Highly doubtful 2000ma batteries, probably 1500ma batteries that are really 1300ma. Tutoit on ebay I have 2x1500ma batteries for a 9.98$ shipped with a charger, I would get that instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ryohei47:
yeah, either get the 2 1500s and the charger for 11 50

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290444598681#ht_1730wt_1137

or the 1800 and the charger for 11 50

http://cgi.ebay.com/1800mAh-Battery...250661003311?pt=PDA_Accessories#ht_3119wt_911
[EVO 4G Accessories] Trident:
I was just looking at this... seems like a great idea... the extra charger allows you to keep a second battery charged without using the EVO to do it. Even if it's really a lower rated battery... still a good deal.

Did you try it?
[EVO 4G Accessories] jayv1717:
I ordered it, but still waiting...those hong kong shipments take a while, i'll let you know as soon as I test it out

Sent from my Htc Evo 4g
[EVO 4G Accessories] rugedraw:
I have a set of the 1500 mah batteries with the charger as was posted above, and I have no problem with them. I use my OEM battery most of the time, but sometimes it is handy to have some fully-charged back-ups. Honestly, I don't see much of a difference between what my OEM battery lasts and the knock-offs. For the price, you can't beat it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ryohei47:
so how are the batteries?
[EVO 4G Accessories] potna:
normally i would stay way from cheap Chinese crap on eBay, but with what i read here on the xda boards in regaurds t othe ok qualitybeing good enough that they might work out, so i ordered 2x1850 plus charger from ebay. i dont have time to do any real testing but i can say that:

1 not having to charge the battery from the phone is nice

2 i always have one on the charger, one in my pocket and one in the phone.

3 charging in the base seems to get me a better charge

4 i cant tell a difference between oem and knock offs, although you would think that the 1800's would last longer than the 1500oem but we know how that knock off crap goes. in my book if they are the same as oem, regardless as to what they claim and dont require a bigger back plate, then i guess that's good enough.
[EVO 4G Accessories] crimeslunk:
The 2 from tutoit or what ever the sellers name is work great last as long or longer then my stock battery. The charger also gives a better charge to the batteries then I get through my phone I'm talking extra hours when I charge with it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mrpickem:
I got this and it's a good deal for the price.

The batteries aren't as good as oem. Probably last 75-80% as long.

The charger works well though and it's nice to have a couple extra batts laying around. I've only cycled them 4 or 5 times so I suppose the life could improve...time will tell.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Ohm2k:
I Have a number of Minor issues with mine. Must of gotten a bad set.

1) USB port on the charger does not output enough juice to charge the phone (Accually Locks it up until I unplug it)

2) Charger seems hit or miss on recharging the Stock Battery. I've left it plugged in all night and come back to ~20% charge when I pop it in a number of times

3) Random Screen cut off when charging the Replacements IN the phone.

So I only charge the Ghetto batteries in the charger provided.

That being said, I STILL think it's a great deal and more than happy with my purchase. I have 2 spare batteries for my phone (Or the wifes CDMA Hero) and a way to charge one w/o having to leave my phone behind (I don't have to babysit my phone for a charge, If someone walks out of the poker room or party with my charger and battery it's no big deal) The 2 China batts. are just emergency tanks, The Red one gets put back in as soon as I get home.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kawfree:
Best Purchase at twice the price.

Don't wait press the BUY NOW!!!!

Loved the first set so much that I purchased a second set 2 weeks later. I keep 1 set at work and 1 set at home. I always carrying a fully charged battery in plastic bag in my pocket. I love the EVO but hate the battery life. The first month I owned the EVO was hell for me having to carry a power charger and cable everywhere. I hated having to plug my phone in every time I found a power outlet worried if I didn't I may find myself without a phone when I needed it or having to fight everyone at the airports for power outlets. Now when I'm low on juice, I just switch batteries.... BUY NOW you'll never regret it....
[EVO 4G Accessories] bobng:
I purchased 2 3500 batteries with new backs on e-bay for $22 and change. They work great I can go for over a day with fairly heavy usage.

Only minor problem was that with the phone thicker my silicone case doesn't fit as good. Extra weight no problem.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Saltwater Hero:
Yeah one thing I have learned from buying these types of batteries and charger is that they don't like to charge the OEM batteries but charge the cheapo ones just fine. I've noticed it on alot of things not just phone batteries.
[EVO 4G Accessories] bignibb:
buy it for the charger

i bought a 2000mAh that turned out to be a 900mAh so i would only buy it for the charger.
[EVO 4G Accessories] tonyb1900:
I wouldn't recommend the 2 x 1500 batteries plus charters the 1500's seem like a 1300 or a little less I would say try get the 1800 one from eBay they have a lot of auctions for them so all you gotta do is be patient and try to get for cheap that's what I'm tryin to do
[EVO 4G Accessories] Shigster:

link says, oracle sues google.

so what can it be?

an article about how they want money out of google's cash machine cuz android is so great and they think because it runs the same that android IS java, so they have a right to it.

I personally think worst case, google pays oracle a boatload and continues on with whatever they want.
[Off-topic] bobjbain:
This is nothing to worry about, companies sue other companies ALL the time.

Apple are currently suing lots of other people over IP.

In fact I think you'll find Oracle are probably being sued by someone over something!

As you say worse case scenario Google pay Oracle money
[Off-topic] settlethestorm:
Saw this story earlier on my usa today app lol. Either this will turn into a big story, or it'll disappear quickly. It's anyone's guess. Google may fight Oracle, because personally I feel Google has a legit argument/defense. And I also feel Oracle is just pulling bs for money/attention and have no grounds for this lawsuit. We'll see tho...

[HD2 General] thatg:
Hey so i just picked up an hd2 on craigslist. when the seller handed my the phone he showed me the phone working and then did a hard reset so i thought nothing of it and took the phone while it was resetting. then while waiting for it to boot i noticed it was taking quite a while so i took out the battery and let it reboot, it turned on then froze on the homescreen. i've tried several hard resets and have gotten the phone to the point where it works but only after putting in a removing the battery several times and the phone sticking on the "stick together" logo. I was going to try to do the newest tmobile update on the phone using the one available on their website but now i have an issue plugging the phone into the computer or wall adapter as it will make the phone freeze and ill have to go back through my removing the battery 5 times process. is this some sort of common issue with a common fix or should i take the phone to tmobile or htc and see what they can do for me. i dont have a receipt as a purchased the phone on craigslist so im not sure tmobile will do anything for me.

Edit: i can now connect my phone to the pc i'm trying to update to 2.13.531.1 but i got to 8% but the update froze there and the phone currently has no image version. I'm using windows 7 ultimate and ive tried to run as administrator and with xp service pack 3 compatibility.
[HD2 General] zelendel:
I would put the phone in boot load manually by holding the volume down button while turning it on, and remove the memory card and then reflash the tmobile rom
[HD2 General] thatg:
can someone also help me figure out how to get the ruu.nbh file off this rom and how big it should be so i can try to flash it from the sd card. thanks

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681030
[HD2 General] thatg:
i found a .nbh file on my computer that was 4mb and renamed it leoimg.nbh then tried putting it on a freshly formatted fat 32 micro sd car and went into bootloader mode but the phone gives me an upgrade error, asks me to try again and just goes to a white "loading..." screen now the phone is stuck here. its like the newest issue is the one im stuck with. now i cant get the phone to sync with the computer or run the .exe to recognize the phone
[HD2 General] zelendel:
What error did it give you? Found an nbh file? was it from a stock rom? Do you have Hard SPL on it? If it doesnt have HSPL on it then you will only be able to load a stock rom
[HD2 General] ddgarcia05:
+1 or flash the phone then task 29 it.
[HD2 General] thatg:
no i have not run hard spl so i can only install a stock rom a suppose. the exe gets stuck at 8%, i have no idea where the right nbh file is. i read somewhere when you run the exe it installs the nbh in a temp folder but im not sure i found the right one. ive also downloaded task29 and tried to run as admin but it doesnt do anything just goes to the htc install screen and stays at 0% Getting frustrating it was working fine actually before i tried to install the new tmobile software update. ive read that task29 gets rid of extra leftovers of other roms and might help the exe finish up on the phone and get past that 8% wall but it doesnt seem to be working for me
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
right click the stock exe file choose extract here, will give 9 or so files, one of them is about 200meg and is called ruu_signed.nbh that's the file you want.

randomly flashing nbh files that you don't know what they are, that's about the stupidest thing you can do...... you deserve a brick for being an idiot.
[HD2 General] thatg:
lol thank you for the words of encouragement, so i've extracted the .nbh file its 268mb, renamed it to leoimg.nbh tried the update from the sd card and it fails at the radio says, update terminated, update FAIL. any idea where to go from here?

Edit: i've run hspl3 on the phone is boot loader mode and have also run task29 from doloop but still get the same error with the tmobile file. 8% using the exe and FAIL trying to flash from the sd card
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
heh you're welcome. (i was harsh to make the point,,, if you found a random bottle of liquid that said petrol on it, you wouldn't put it in your car till you were sure it was petrol, right?)

as to why it failed, i'm not sure, i think i'd probably hspl3, choose 2.08.hspl, then try flash a radio on its own (see the tmous radio thread) because it could be a bad radio.

just please confirm the exact filename of the .exe you extracted ruu_signed from?
[HD2 General] thatg:
The first exe file, which got to 8 percent then went red and failed was

T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1

After hspl3 and using task29 i tried flashing this exe which gets to 99% and fails

RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
that second one, did you flash from sd card? cos its a manufacturing test rom, and if so then you may now be stuck with a test spl of 2.02, and if so things just got a heap worse,,,

go into bootloader and tell me what it says next to spl
[HD2 General] thatg:
i tried flashing using the .exe method in bootloader mode. next to spl it reads -2.08.hspl 8g XE

it now says

Upgrade ROM code error
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
ah ok, good.

so, it seems to be the radio causing the error, so since you have hspl installed, why not try a custom rom? they don't include a radio, so it may bypass the problem.
[HD2 General] thatg:
Which do you suggest, i bought the phone so that i could ultimately install android on it. but it seems i'd be lucky to even have wm running on the thing

Edit. just tried kumars classic rom, renamed to leoimg tried running off the sd card, The update finishes successfully but after i hit the reset button on the back of the phone i just see the tmobile stick together logo and the phone doesnt boot. Do a lot of people struggle with the hd2s or do i just have a bad example here?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
well unfortunately i think you may have a dud. its the radio that is preventing it from booting.

it could be the radio from that test rom, it could be something else (but still the radio)

options...

its still under warranty, speak to t mobile and/or htc, but don't mention flashing and be sure to remove hspl if you do send it back. (run hspl3, choose 2.08.0000, that's stock)

or

look on here for a user called xmoo, he knows a lot about this sort of problem, (im just good with regular flashing issues)
[HD2 General] kgblabble:
im having the same issue so if you believe its the radio will installing different radio maybe fix the problem?
[HD2 General] thatg:
i;ve tried installing a new radio from the sd card. it goes red and fails
[HD2 General] Running_Gag:
It sounds like a hardware issue at this point. I'm willing to bet you fried something when you pulled the battery in the middle of the master reset.
[HD2 General] thatg:
Hope thats something htc will cover. Phones on its way over
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
should be fine so long as you removed hspl before you shipped it, if you didnt they will tell you you need to buy a new mainboard for xxx dollars.

is there a way to use navigation without a data plan?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mblaster:
If you start the navigation at home, using your wifi for downloading the map data, it should run all the way until you reached your destination witheot requesting further map data, afair. You should only run into problems when you leave the track and google navigation tries to download new map data that has been of your initial route.

Better disable data completely if you want to try (e.g. use a wrong apn), otherwise it might become an expensive try.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smurfgod:
Thats whay I do.

I let Google Maps download all the map data it needs and as long as yopu stay on your course, you'll be fine.

I've only had data on a couple of phones and thats why wifi is a must for me(it's everywhere here..lol)..Data is over rated in my books if you got good wifi connects.

Hope you get it sorted.
[Nexus One General] C64c:
The game in question is Carron3D Pro. I very briefly began to play the game while out shopping. Instead of pressing the home key or back button to get out of the game i pressed the power button to put it in standby, or so i thought. Put it in my pocket and continued out shopping.

An hour later i realised something hot in my pocket!

The bottom half of the phone, front and back was hot to touch! I realised it must have been Carron3D Pro as it was left on while in standby.

I performed a battery pull to let it cool off and once cool enough I tried the same thing again to see if it really was the game. 15minutes later I could feel it heating up.

How much processig power must that game be using to do that.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
It's ok for the game to heat up the phone, those that do heavy CPU and GPU processing. "Let's Golf" does that too.

The game most probably uses wakelock and it kept running.
[Nexus One General] mkrmec:
Stupid game devs... if you exit the game via any means or just go to standby it should shutdown or go into some saving mode.. it can't just keep running and heat up the phone and eat the battery like crazy..
