Could you explain pls?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bazalicious:
Yeah the keyboard closes securely. Hasn't opened up in my pocket yet. Not too sure about the Mini as I don't own one.

App developers usually design their apps to work on a device with a HVGA resolution. However, because the resolution on the X10 Mini is QVGA, some apps do not show up in the market due to HVGA resolution screens being a requirement. Read this thread for more info
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kimb0:
Thank you :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bmazloum:
Thanks for the replies guys. The only thing that's making me hesitant about picking it up right now is the lack of damn firmware updates for this thing. SE only cares about their phones for the time that they're out. When the new model comes out, they stop updating the older ones.

I love Froyo on my Topaz and I want it on here before Q4, since that's when Win Phone 7's are coming out. It'll be hesitant, but if I buy it, you'll be the first to know.

The resolution hack seems like something that's much needed. Thanks!
[Vibrant General] Mr. Moe:
Was downloading lag fix and now phone won't do anything but show black screen with touch buttons lit up. Will show battery icon with usb plugged in and will allow me to get in to downloader mode (volume up+down and power) but odin does not show a com port when in downloader mode, but will show a com port when shut plugged in and battery icon showing. I have the drivers loaded, but can't use odin flash to stock rom.

NOTE: I can get into stock recovery but not into rooted recovery.

anyhelp would be appreciated
[Vibrant General] skater4690:
when you have it in download mode unplug it from the computer NOT THE PHONE!!! just make sure you do that lol then it should pop up from there good luck

just so you know this should be in general and not here ;)

Hey guys,

i'm searching für a HTC hero motherboard (or G2 Touch). Nothing found on ebay..do you know a store?

greetings
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] alexluckett:
You're probably better off just buying a broken hero from ebay and taking the motherboard out of it :)!
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] MacaronyMax:
(OP) May i ask what for :p :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Berth666:
ok..let's have a look for a broken hero :)

Do you've got an idea? I buid a "wet" mobile, it's all working, but displaylight not.

And..it's not the display - i changed it.

figured it out thanks for all the help please delete......
[Vibrant General] rsfaze:
if its saying adb is not a recognized command you are not in the tools folder.

Which directory are you in?

If you do a dir it should list all of the files in the current directory , do you see adb.exe ?
[Vibrant General] my fear:
ok when i start cmd the line says C:\users\Mr. Tarno>

then i put in cd C:\ android-sdk-windows\tools and then it is in that folder then i did what you said and typed dir and yes it shows adb.exe, its the top file.

when i type adb.exe it shows all the possible commands that i could type but when i try it says adb is not a recognized command.
[Vibrant General] blackstoneuser5:
That would be right.

I think you're trying to type adb -d shell for example instead of adb.exe -d shell. You would need to include the file extension as well when including commands to be done by ADB.
[HD2 General] kyleshaffer21:
ok...ive been on this site reading for over an hour and cant find anything on how to get my HD2 back to ORIGINAL EVERYTHING. I want to go back to how my phone was when i bought it without any of the stuff i have on it. i have the chuckyROM installed on my phone so i could use android but i just want my phone to go back to original everything. so if someone could give me links to where i need to follow to do this or the threads it would be greatly appriciated!!!!
[HD2 General] Scabes24:
You need to find and flash an origonal shipped ROM from here (and make sure you READ the thread first)

And maybe also read through these as well:

Hey all I am living in the UK and have been trying out alot of the different Roms for the HD2. However I have yet found a Rom that supports the 5m camera. I find that the Stock Rom is much better for Camera and Video.

So my question to you, Is there a Rom out there that is as good as the 'Core Series' and 'Energy' Roms that support The 5m Camera on the HD2???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmRipper:
Every rom supports 5m camera. What's your problem ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreadfulmonk:
No it doesn't the core series v2 and v3 only support up to 3m on the camera and same as the energy. The pictures you take with those roms is nothing compared to htc stock
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skycamefalling:
Don't you think it would be better to open your eyes and flip to the second page of the settings where the 5MP are clearly selectable? ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreadfulmonk:
lol, yes i tried that but it still does not look half as good as the stock Rom. Surely other people on here agree with me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
hang on while i force my way through the people fighting to agree with you,,,, oh, wait there aren't any,,,,,

hehe

i think your issue must be something else, since no one has yet mentioned anything similar, and i think it would have been brought up a long time ago if it were really the case.

Could it be something simple like maybe a tweak that you always apply whever you flash that is affecting it? sometimes something seemingly unrelated can cause issues in something else.

care to post a few examples of stock rom vs cooked rom images?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
You must be smoking some good **** man. 5 Megapixel mode is ON in my ROM and I'm sure all other Leo ROMs as well. Whether they look good to you or not, I dont know. It's still a friking PHONE after all and not a professional camera.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASCIIker:
i just wrote a tutorial in this thread (post 26) that should significantly help improve the camera's quality:

[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
So I've been looking all over the web for about three days now and can't seem to find any that will work with the eris, but what I'm looking for us a theme with a clear or almost clear notification bar. Or is there an easy what to change one around to work for the eris?
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
why not just hide the notification bar or use adw launcher and make it hide but also have the up swipe to hide/show notifications....or try searching the themes for the eris here
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
I don't want it hidden, I've seen some themes for the nexus where it is clear but still has the icons and everything on it and I think it looks pretty cho l but can't find one that will work. And yes I've looked threw the themes and apps section. I wouldn't be wasting orioles time if I could easily google and find it.
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
heres one it doesnt say eris but heres something that might work

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/3772-metamorph-theme-clearbar-v02/
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
Yeah thats the one I found that I though might work, but sadly it didn't. Thanks anyway.
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
lol yeah i just did a nandroid and applied and all it did was undo my adw settings lol
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
It didn't do anything to my phone... It looks like if I go to kaosfroyo I MIGHT be able to get one because most of them are for CM6 phones and roms. But I really don't wanna leave white widow. And I really don't want to have to repartition my SD card.
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
What I'm really looking for is a "transparent status bar" still haven't found anything googling that though.
[Droid Eris General] loki154:
If you have a froyo rom you can change the transparency of the notification bar from the cyanogen settings and tweaks.
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
Yeah that's what im starting to realize. Guess I'm just screwed your awhile.
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
Actually the colors yes NOT the transparency which is the alpha setting
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
Really you can't? Which cm6 did you check on?
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
I'm using CELB which is using 6.0 i think it says in the settings that the alpha (transparency) setting will NOT be applied
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
Hmm. Well I guess that answered my question about what froyo rom to try. And there the rom you tried the transparent status bar on yesterday?
[Droid Eris General] Funnyface19:
I'm going to flash the CELB 2.1 and try again for you its irritating me now lol cuz it would be cool
[Droid Eris General] johnnyboy1549:
I flashed every cm6 rom and they all say it won't be applied. Yeah it does look like it would be pretty cool.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
So I had to go through warranty exchange with Customer Care since my volume rocker and bezel are loosening. I am past the 14-day exchange window so the stores will not do anything for me. One thing I was insistent on is that I did not want a refurbished unit (the device is less than 30-days old, why should I accept a refurbished unit?). The customer care associate was pretty insistent himself in telling me that he cannot request a new unit for me, however it is a "great possibility" that I would receive a new unit due to the phone being pretty new. I reluctantly agreed to have the replacement shipped to me, since they refused to let me do an in-store exchange.

Has anyone gone through this with their Vibrant? I'm looking to find people who have received warranty replacements from Customer Care, if anyone has gotten a new or a refurbed unit. Bottom line, I will not accept a refurbished unit. I figured worse comes to worse, I will send the refurbed one back and continue to ***** with them over the phone.

I'm flipping pissed too, because it was just so unnoticeable during the first 14-days, and then it inherently got worse with normal use. So now I'm feeling stuck. I do not know if the rep was telling me it will "likely" be a new unit just to get me to stop complaining, or if it's really true.
[Vibrant General] DarkAgent:
I'm with you - I wouldn't accept a refurbished unit either. However, since you are out of your 14-days (I assume you don't live in California) I don't think there is much you can do.

How long have you been a T-Mobile customer? The best bet to have issues resolved is always contact retention department. Not only are the employees there more knowledgeable, but based on your tenure with T-Mo, they often will do things for you other reps won't.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
How far out of 14 days are you? I would take your box and everything back to the store you got it at and talk to the manager. Just be super nice about it and ask them to see if they can exchange it for you. Sometimes they can make exceptions, I know at my store we do.
[Vibrant General] PathogenX:
I have exchanged phones in the past that were referbs and they come in pristine condition. They are practically brand new and have zero blemishes.

Don't worry about it.

Question though...

What do you mean the bezel is coming loose. I noticed that on the left side of the phone the bezel does not seem to be on correctly like the right side it might just be my eyes though. I hear a lot of squeaking from it though kinda annoying.

My volume button was loose out of the box feels cheap as hell when pressing it but it does not really bother me too much.

Samsungs build quality on the vibrant is very poor.
[Vibrant General] KerryG:
Mine is perfect. I am quite impressed with the build quality and iPhone4 fanatics who have looked at it have been impressed with it. Their quality control may be poor, but when you get a good one, its terrific.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
The phone was purchased on launch day, so tomorrow will mark 30-days.

Unfortunately, I already tried returning my phone to the store. They wouldn't take it. They offered to call customer care to send me a refurb, which I declined. Worst part is, I can't try again because I am out of the area where it was purchased (we are on a family plan, the account holder is in Georgia, I'm in New Jersey, and I was on vacation there when we attempted the exchange this past week.) I do have the receipt though and can try at a different store, but I doubt a different store will want to inherit my problem.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
We've had T-Mobile since 2002 or 2003, whatever year they first took over Voicestream. If this replacement is a refurb, I will be contacting the retention department.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
Yes, that is what is happening to mine, and it's a defect. The bezel is loose and creaks when held. Also, the volume rocker rattles around in the phone.

I've played with the store display units, as well as another Vibrant we had purchased on our family account, and it has none of these issues. They are solidly built. So it's obvious that some of batches weren't properly assembled.
[Vibrant General] rjwisniewski:
At my T-Mobile location my rep was having problems with her Vibrant and decided to try to tough it out. She did some master resets and didn't exchange within 14 days. She received a refurb from T-Mo.

As a manager I've gotten to the point where refurbs no longer bother me. Most of the time the refurbs come back in excellent condition, especially now that we're doing the certified open box program where people can buy COB phones.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
Honestly if you put a refurb and a new vibrant side by side you couldn't tell the difference. If they hadn't said anything you wouldn't have known. Besides it comes with the same 1 year manufactures warranty so its still covered.
[Vibrant General] mesajoejoe:
Did you purchase the phone at full price or as a subsidy? If at full price you have 30 days to exchange at store.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
As a subsidy.

I know refurbs are supposed to be just as good or even better, but I've never had any luck with anything refurbished. Anything with a screen has always had hairline scratches. Either that or it's very obviously been used with lots of normal wear and tear and marks/scuffs.
[Vibrant General] PathogenX:
That's disappointing to hear... =/

It doesn't bother me too much I would have just perfected a more solid feeling phone.

Besides they charge you $10 to ship it out to you.

I would much rather save those 10 bucks and if the phone has some real issues I will return it. I also don't want to go through the headache of finding all my apps and redownloading them and getting my phone back to the way it previously was. Meh. I will stick with a few creaks here and there.

If you do however decide on doing this please tell us your experience with the referb phone. I am interested.
[Vibrant General] deviusdragger:
You whine too much. Who cares what it is. As long as you get a device that is new or refurbed, you won't even be able to tell the difference. Just enjoy your phone. And also, customer retention won't do anything as far as your problem.
[Vibrant General] chuck217:
i just recently got a refurb from tmobile and it looks brand new have not had any problems it looks brand new like if it was never used
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
Sorry, but I don't think I'm being unreasonable in requesting a new 500 dollar item when the one I just purchased was defective. Sure, 6 months down the line, something happens, give me a refurb. That's reasonable because the value of your purchase declines with time and with your own use. 30 days old is brand spanking new, and I should get the same if something is wrong with it.
[Vibrant General] hockeyrcks9901:
I have one getting delivered to me today. I've been with T-mobile for close to ten years and they overnight shipped it for free to me. Mine is having an issue when charging where the usb cord is very loose. They rep said I would get a new or like new item but I will also be returning it if it not new. My phone is only 20 days old and I don't trust refurbished units enough when mine is only 20 days old. The loose card is making it so if the phone is not in the right position it won't charge
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
LOL

i thought you bought your phone subsidized?
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
Your window for a new replacement is 14 days.
[Vibrant General] marsupial99:
I just got a replacement unit from T-Mobile and frankly I have no idea how to tell whether it is new or refurbished. Is there a way to tell? I really don't care if it is refurbished as long as it looks like new and works properly (aside from GPS and compass of course), but I am really curious how you guys are able to tell whether the replacement unit you got is new or not.
[Vibrant General] disturkis4u:
You can't tell. It's just that some people prefer a defective unit as long as it's 'new' versus a working new OR refurb device.

I think people feel like they're entitled to something when they're not. Technically the phone isn't even t-mobiles problem, it's samsung's problem. Imagine if the carriers didn't care and let you go through the manufacturer for a warranty (as regular service companies do for products)? The carriers take the middleman out of warranty and this Is what they get in return. I could only imagine what my landline service would tell me if I called about my landline phones not working. Or if I called my internet company about my pc....or my tv service provider about my tv not working.

I say suck it up and move on. If they had told you it's new you wouldn't be complaining even if it actually was refurb. it's in your head. When you get a new phone you don't inspect it. Obviously if you had it wouldn't take you a month to return it if it was poorly built. But the 'refurb' you will
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
I did, but you realize that you pay extra monthly when you subsidize your purchase to make up for the full retail cost of the phone, right? Which is why when you pay full price and take the no-contract option, it costs you less monthly. So in the end, yes, you do pay full price for the phone one way or another.

I would think that was common knowledge. :confused:
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
well that's the nature of warranty with technology. if you don't agree with the terms of the warranty, then you shouldn't have bought it. you won't find any other phone or carrier that will guarantee you a new phone under warranty.

btw, my wife was the same way about refurbs, and she had to get a warranty exchange for her cliq within 30 days and the replacement has been perfect (well as good as a cliq can be).
[Vibrant General] RaindropBebop:
The creaking bezel (about 1/3 of the ways up from the bottom of the phone) is actually a product of the back case pushing against it and causing it to become slighly raised. If you take off the back case, it no longer creaks, and feels quite solid. I was contemplating shaving off a bit of the case lip/edge so it doesn't push against the bezel so much.

As for the rocker.. I think it's just pretty cheap feeling for everyone. That's the general concensus.

My thoughts: If it get's extremely bad (i.e. bezel is visibly raised, and/or coming off), or it bothers you to an extreme amount, just return it and hope to get a new one, or just accept the refurb if you get one. I received a refurb once for my old SE k850i, and it was way better (build quality-wise)than the original handset that broke. If the refurb turns out to have problems, just return that and get another. I'm pretty sure most places have pretty strict QC levels for the refurbs.
[Vibrant General] vibrant2010:
First off I work in a call center for a satellite tv provider and when we do exchanges on recievers that are defective we as agents can not guarantee the customer that the receiver that is being sent to them is brand new because we have no way to contact the warehouse that sends these orders out. So the t-mo agents probably don't either if their process is the same. Also I just went through an exchange with them on my vibrant because on voice calls I could not hear out of the headset speaker but the caller could hear me. The new phone they sent me actually seemed better than the original in terms of the volume rocker not being loose. They sent me the phone overnight through UPS at no cost amd when I received it I could not tell if it was new or a refurb. And to tell u the truth I really did not care because the new one worked. So next time anyone contacts t-mo just remember that who ever you speak with they most likely can not promise you a new or refurb. Just be happy that they sent u phone and it fixed what ever problem u were having.
[Vibrant General] hockeyrcks9901:
Got the replacement phone last night and it's impossible to tell if it is a refurb or not. I would assume it is because it did not come with a battery/back cover or a battery nor none of the regular accessories.

This even seems like a better build quality than my original: the micro-usb sliding cover is tighter, the headphone jack is tighter, and the chrome trim doesn't creak anymore. However, the volume rocker is still loose. GPS is still broken but I think that's a software problem and until 2.2 comes out, I doubt it will be fixed.

I am definitely satisfied with the replacement.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
Good to hear, thanks for being helpful in your response (getting a lot of unhelpful posts here). I am still waiting for them to ship mine out. Will report when I receive it.
[Vibrant General] DarkAgent:
What a terrible, terrible analogy. You completely ignore the fact that the phone is bought from T-Mobile - not Samsung. Your landline phone/PC/TV typically is bought separately, hence most people don't call their service provider for issues. You are comparing apples to oranges.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
Well I got the replacement today, and sad to say, the volume rocker is also loose, if not looser, than the one I have. As a trade-off though, the bezel doesn't creak anywhere anymore. I'm charging up my battery now to throw into the replacement to see if there are any other differences. I would be convinced at this point that this is how they are *supposed* to be, had I not seen 3 other Vibrants where the volume rocker was solid as can be.

I'll probably keep both phones for a day or two just to see which one is better overall, and to make sure there is nothing else wrong with the replacement. I'll most likely deal with the loose rocker unless it gets worse over time, in which case I'll ask for another replacement.

I really love this phone, minus the build quality, so I'm trying to stick with it.
