Nothing wrong with just using a file explorer. However, adb push could be your only option if something screwed up and your screen stays black or something.

I bought my SGS from USA and I tried to use it in Europe. Before I began to use, I had updated the firmware with Froyo. After that, my phone haven't attach the operator. I reflashed it many times with many type firmware versions, but it couldn't work.

*#1234# returns PDA and CSC versions correct; however, "Phone:Unknown".

And some firmware upgrades give the following error at phone console:

--Appling Muti-CSC...

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dartmouth70:
I am running Skyraider 2.5.2 Sense (Froyo) on my HTC Incredible with Clockwork Mod 2.5.0.1 recovery with Baseband 2.05.00.06.11 & Kernel 2.6.32.15g5e1ad8b. PRI 1.28_002.

I tried to flash the Android DSP equalizer (http://bel.fi/~alankila/android-dsp/) and my phone locked up and I had to nand & Titanium restore.

My phone's happy now but I'd really like the DSP - which is supposedly working on Cyanogen 6.0 RC2.

I have no idea what might happen if I use ROM Manager to download and flash Cyanogen 6.0.0-RC3 at this point.

Sorry if this is a moronic question but any illumination would be welcome. Thanx!

:eek:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] execute_method:
As a rule of thumb, ALWAYS wipe before flashing a rom. The only exception to the rule is when a dev Specifically says otherwise.

My rule of thumb is to manually change roms (not using rom manager). Backup, wipe 2x each (data + cache), wipe dalvik cache,then flash. I have NEVER had boot loops or anything else happen after following that.

As to the dsp, I can confirm that the dsp with eq is NOT working with skyraider. It does work with CM6 though.

Hope this helps.

would it be possible to boot chromium os instead of ubuntu, i know it may sounds silly because why would you want to use chromium? but i think it would be pretty interesting to see how fast it boots on a mobile device and also if you wanted to browse the net fast and have quick startup times then it would be the way to go

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] callmecooper:
lol, screw people without a data plan. I see no reason to ever get a smartphone, that has all these many features, and never get a data plan.

seriously, what is the point? you cant use any features unless you are connected to wifi. not everywhere is there wifi. and if there is, most of the time its not an open network, and if it is an open network, i hope that there is someone there packet sniffing and catching your info for being cheap and not getting a data plan.

bottom line, get a data plan. t-mobile has an unlimited plan as do most others. i've used 10 gigs in a month and no cut off, so that is plenty for ANYONE.

stop buying bottled water and drink tap, and you can afford the data plan.

i apologize for the rant.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 96edwy:
i have to kinda agree with the data plan post, altho it wasnt nicely put he is kinda ryt, but also i agree with you, not everyone can afford the extra money and not evrywhere in the world has brillian 3g coverage but tbh if u dont hav a data plan then u dotn install chrome os simple as, and even if u did get it and dont have a data plan its not lik its a rom, leave it on your sd card then boot when your around wifi? i just thought itd b a nice idea to have a web browsing device that boots almost instantly, well atleast hopefully it wud. i know yeh im gna get comments lik "we do have web browsing devices just use the built in browser on android" or "use the hd2 winmo browser" but its just a question and an idea.

if anyone who reads this is interested and maybe wants to giv it a go at making chrome work on the hd2 then there are already some precompiled builds called chrome flow, search for it on google unless u alredi know what im talking about.
[HD2 General] rebecker:
I've recently started to have odd time related things happen on my HD2. Alarms set for 4:45, for instance, go off at 3:45 (not always; just occasionally). With my local time set to US Central Daylight Savings, times for other zones, including Eastern in the US and Central America are off by an hour (fast).

Anyone have an idea of what settings I should check?

The real oddity is that these times change from day-to-day or even during the same day. Today for instance, the times in other zones were off in the morning, but show correctly this afternoon.

Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[HD2 General] jdwrrzmm:
Is this a custom ROM? I know I've seen several chefs posting changelogs like "Timezone issue fixed, hopefully" lately.

Standard ROM. This morning all times are correct. ??? Can't figure it out.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
could it be your pc is causing it? i once came across a situation where the user had chosen 'no' when his pc had asked him 'do you want to automatically adjust for summer time', and he set the pc time manually himself, , but this then sent his phone wacky because it WAS trying to auto adjust, but every time he synced it would move back an hour, and then re adjust when he restarted it (the phone), and so half the time it was an hour different than the PC.

Probably a long shot, but your post brought it to mind.
[HD2 General] rebecker:
I have my PC clock set to automatically adjust for DST. So far today everything is correct. Just plain odd.

You can enjoy zero battery drain on your EVO if you follow these simple steps... These steps work best if done before going to bed.

1. Fully charge your phone and calibrate it as instructed by HTC and Cyanogen

2. Once it's fully charged, shut off the phone

3. Go to bed, and have a good night's sleep

4. Turn the phone on after sleeping all night

5. Enjoy your fully charged phone.

I have done this to a myriad of ROMS and KERNELS and I have yet to see any significant battery drainage overnight.

Best way i have found to get better battery life I found over at Android Forums.

1. Charge battery fully

2. allow battery to Drain to 90%

3. Re charge fully

As lame as it sounds i have used it on every possible combo of ROM's and it works...you only need to do it once unless you switch kernels

Flame away!!!

After thinking about this for a minute, I have decided to get rid of my battery problems altogether. I threw my EVO away and now I use the cell phone built into my body. I can only call people that are within 15 feet or so, unless I talk really loud and then reception is a little better. But I never have to charge my throat so it is worth the trade off.

EDIT: Have noticed decreased reception when I hold my hand over my ears. Kind of like the iPhone.

I didn't want to announce this yet, but maybe we should build a wiki about this. I would like to announce on how to never have the battery die. See the trick is to keep in plugged in all the time. Leave it plugged in all the time. Never use it though! You can stare in amazement on the battery never dropping below 100%!

I have also learned that if I don't drive my car, ever, I get amazing gas mileage during that time period.

You know, I've actually found a similar method that also works. While your way is cheaper, I went ahead and bought one of those $10 wall chargers + 2 battery sets off ebay. It did take 2 weeks to get here, but let me tell you...Now I have 3 batteries to charge and once I got them all charged, the little light turns blue telling me it's at 100%, I can just keep swapping the batteries around in the charger. It's like x3 the excitement and there's that damn-cute little blue light to look at.

As far as that ****ty evo half-dumb phone thingy goes, it's in the trash. These batteries are much funner to watch in the wall charger. :)

Maybe if I turn off facebook sync my battery will last 2 years longer in between charges. I appreciate all the great information in this thread though. I am gonna try this method with two batteries and I will come back and provide an update when my phone dies next. Thanks..
