[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyeejay:
maybe try installing fake flash, clear all your caches and batt stats, install a basic rom just to get it up and running before you install a custom rom of choice. I have found it isn't as easy to brick this phone as say my old omnia i900 which was windows based. It could be that installing roms without clearing all yr caches is causing the glitches. I'm not an expert and don't claim to be but I always have a clear out before installing a new rom and it works for me.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fungflex:
Thanks for the advice, I will look into Fake Flash as I am not very familiar with that process.

As an update I managed to get into Recovery, and of course I flashed a rom which gave me nothing but a boot loop. Thankfully I was able to mount the SDCard in recovery mode and I am loading on one of the more vanilla sense roms to see if that works.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
A lot of custom roms require you to have an ext3 partition on your SD card. This can cause bootloops if you don't have the card partitioned.

I'd also try booting without the SD and see what results you get.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fungflex:
You will all be happy to know the phone is no longer bricked. Recovery mode seems to be working again and I didn't really do anything to do that.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wattpuppy:
Does anyone know how the live wallpaper works? I'd like use Tasker to change it automatically (like you can do with regular wallpaper). Any ideas what files are involved and how they are used?
[Captivate General] ryusen:
After having the phone for a little over two weeks now, i think i am going to keep it. There are a few things in the software that irritate me, but overall it's a good phone.

1) I'm ready to give up on Kies. It is just not stable. It won't connect unless certain files are not on the Internal SD card and as best as i can determine, those files are generated by the Phone/Apps automatically. Even when it does connect (usually after formatting the SD card), it will randomly swap contacts' first and last names. It will also give me duplicate entries for people's birthdays in outlook Calendar.

2) The Camera on this phone does not seem to be as sharp at the 3.2MP camera on my Fuze. Its colour handling however seems to be superior. The auto White Balance actually corrects for tungsten lights fairly well. It would be nice if the volume buttons could be mapped as shutter buttons. I am also having trouble telling much difference when i set the exposure compensation. I also notice that you can't use exposure compensation and anti-shake at the same time and that is lame.

3) I tried ADW Launcher is it felt slower than TW... yes slower. Things like the phone dialer took longer to load and search. the main thing i liked about it was the sliding dock at the bottom and the ability to use the expose like preview screens. Just which is worked better. Not sure if i'll give Launcher Pro a try or not. Also, if i set ADW or Launcher Pro as my default launcher, how would i set it back w/o uninstalling?

Thanks,

4) tried a few twitter clients, but haven't found one nearly as good as pockettwit on Winmo. I loved the side swiping interface and how it would autofill the handles of people i follow when i type @and the first few letters.

Still love:

1) the screen... it is utterly beautiful

2) the call quality so far has been great

3) i'm getting more used to typing on a touch screen. I have found portrait mode is easier with swype and landscape the android keyboard
[Captivate General] a_fuegon:
I haven't uninstalled KIES yet but will probably soon. Haven't discarded only because I wanted to try to the movie conversion engine and a few little extras. Handbrake does a very good job though.

I too have tried ADW launcer and wasn't impressed. I lost the 3d app drawer capability, which I do like. IF ADW supports it and someone care to share where the settings are, I would appreciate it.

Launcher pro gives me the ability to hide the apps that are not common or everyday use and the 3d app drawer. I have stuck with LP for the time being.

If you go into settings-applications-manage apps-and select ADW, the 4th section is the default one. Tap on clear defaults and next time you hit the home button, it will ask you which launcher to use and give you a default checkbox.
[Captivate General] ryusen:
thanks for the reply. i think i might give Launcher Pro a try
[Captivate General] boborone:
You can also try home switcher. Lets you use multiple homes as well as multiple lp's, ect for a work, home, play type profile.
[Captivate General] ryusen:
I found that home switcher program, that should be useful in case i ever want to give Kies a try again. On the overall whole, i love Launcher Pro. It works great. I even paid the extra for the additional widgets.

posted this in another thread cause someone didn't believe the speeds I was getting in the same town they were. As you can see there is No WiFi turned on.

Enjoy :)
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
its general knowledge that that testing website is just not accurate at all. try using some other speed tests for comparison, and you will see the difference.
[Nexus One General] heygrl:
Well, I'm sure you're on HSPA+ but 12Mbps is impossible.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
Sooooo the last I checked the Nexus was limited to a 7.2 mbps MAX by hardware...
[Nexus One General] jcohenlv:
Thats pretty ****ed up, I was wondering why when I changed the DL size speed seemed to increase each time.

At Speakeasy and Speedtest I hit 3.5 but even that is much after then the 1 I get with Clear.
[Nexus One General] heygrl:
Clear is pretty lame here. It gets especially slow during 5-8pm
[Nexus One General] jcohenlv:
Ya heavily considering telling them to GTFO and just stick to tethering my Nexus
[Nexus One General] The Solutor:
If you really want to test the phone's speed use the phone thetered to the PC and use dumeter to monitor 3 or 4 parallel downloads.

The maximum you can reach on a 7.2 network is 6.7 megabit.

If you have a 10 Mbit modem (like the N900 or the milestone) and your network is updated you can expect 8Mpbs as maximum.
[Nexus One General] heygrl:
If you can manage the 5 or 10GB soft cap (T-Mobile throttles after 10GB of usage on phones, but older plans are capped at 5GB (total internet is 5GB)) go for it. The only good thing Clear has going for themselves is unlimited usage for the time being.
[Nexus One General] gerikss:
I am getting 12mb/s on that site (mobilespeedtest.com) also. In the same location SpeedTest shows me 1,4mb/s which is more accurate ;)
[Nexus One General] The Solutor:
Hahaha my real speed is about 8Mbps, that site has calculated 550kbps.

Very accurate !! :D

So a local radio station has a web streaming radio client, and I recently realized it works with the evo froyo/flash update.

However, the audio shuts off if you turn off the screen or switch to a different browser window or app.

So basically I am looking for a way to force the audio to continue when the page/player is in the background.

Any ideas?

It's actually the stock Clock app from Eclair....
[Vibrant General] fixedonfixies:
lol thanks just used a plier and made sure to flatten out the whole paperclip before bending, I found some gold pclips and am rocking those right now :)

Goes really well with the color scheme,

illd end the auction right now if you give me 800 :)..deal?

Was wondering what the stock radio version for the T-Mobile US HTC HD2 was?

[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
The radio listed in my sig below is the one that came with the original (2.10) stock T-Mobile ROM...I think there's a different one in the revised (2.13) stock ROM, not sure though.
[HD2 General] logcomptechs:

ill post my thoughts when i get it in, i like it because it looks Slim, its hard plastic, its rubberized.
[EVO 4G Accessories] althis:
doesnt look like it has great camera protection
[EVO 4G Accessories] Lelouche:
The case is fine for what it is, my friend didn't even notice I had a case on my phone. :P
[EVO 4G Accessories] Arsenalfan:
I just got my Case-Mate today. Its freakin awesome. When it claims to be barely noticeable - its right. It feels like I'm holding my naked Evo in my hand !

The only downside per say is that its a little more difficult to press the power and the vol up and down due to the design. But its really just a case of me getting used to it. ( pun intended ) I came from an Amzer case that pretty much covered the Evo back including the power and vol buttons.

Overall, this is by far the best case out there IMO and I would love to get my mits on a white one!

Very sturdy, well designed, barely noticeable, highly recommended !
[EVO 4G Accessories] jerryparid:
Is it any thinner than many of the ebay hard back shell cases?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Arsenalfan:
Absolutely !
[EVO 4G Accessories] rahb0sse:
Drop it and your done...
[EVO 4G Accessories] brndnwbb:
you're right..

lol you're right. depending on how it lands. but i don't use the case for protection from dropping. just about every case breaks when dropped. i just use it to sit the phone on so i don't get scratches and to protect the camera.
[EVO 4G Accessories] rahb0sse:
The case I got from Sprint seems great and I've dropped it twice... once getting out of the truck, forgot it was on my lap, lol.

Other time, opening the door, so both about 3-4 feet.
[EVO 4G Accessories] michd43:
Been rocking my case for about a month and I love it. Sometime I forget I have a case on it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] michd43:
If your referring to the pic of the white case above your post, that's not the case-mate case.
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
Yeah that white case is definitely not the case-mate case. I actually bought one of those white cases off of ebay about two or three weeks ago. Its an ok case but what I noticed about the case is the small amount of table lay that it has is slightly uneven.

This message EVOlved from my EVO!
[EVO 4G Accessories] illmaticone:
Please compare the two when you get it in! i really want the case mate, a name i can trust also helps.. i just want white but if i have to get black so be it.

also the white one you ordered is it the same one i posted? there seems to be a few variants of similar cases.
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
No probelm...consider it done. As soon as the case-mate case arrives, i'll do a review of it. Hopefully the casemate arrives today but if not, I should have tomorrow for sure.
[EVO 4G Accessories] VW91N3:
Press it out. Use your fingernail at the hinge end, starts it right out.
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
I finally received my case-mate barely there case today. I have to say that I like it. i like it better than the white case pictured that I got off of ebay. Anyways first off, the camera is well protected if you lay the phone on it's back side. As far as the front of the phone and table lay...there is none. The phone sits right on it's screen. But that's why you have to get a screen shield :D.

The kickstand is really hard to get to get to. It's like it's embedded in there or something. But it's cool. The feel of the case is smooth also. There's no texture to the case to provide any type of grip so you have to be a little careful. If you're prone to dropping your phone then this case may not be for you. On the other hand, it's fits perfect in my pocket with minimum to no bulging. The buttons are easily accessible.

All in all...I like it. It's well wroth the money. :D

Oh...an it also came with 2 screen protectors and a wipe cloth
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
More Pics...I couldn't add them in the previous post
[EVO 4G Accessories] VW91N3:
Use your fingernail to press on the hinge end instead of trying to booger it out on the tip end.
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
Thanks that works perfect! Im really liking this case. You really can't even tell that there's a case on it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] beandogg:
Just got this case also, love it! Really is...barely there.

Bolsters the sides and the corners. The top and bottom are exposed but still better than naked and feels almost as if it were naked.

The most important thing is that the camera is well protected. I never feel weird about putting the phone down face up any more.
[EVO 4G Accessories] illmaticone:
nice, thanks for the pictures and write up!
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
I have this model available locally here in the U.S. and for a dollar less...

It does keep the camera lens off of flat surfaces (easy way to check is to place a straight edge on the back of the case).

It's light, thin (approx. 1mm) and looks "sexy"...

The question becomes, how do I see the contents of my internal memory (not the main 13 GB of RAM, but the 2 GB internal memory) and what is safe to get rid of. It keeps telling me to dump some apps, but I've only got a third of the apps installed that my wife has installed (she's got over 600 apps, on a still stock Captivate).

Thanks for everyone's input here on the forums. I'm learning a great deal and hopefully my posts are helpful as well.

I am running the JH2 firmware on this one. My wife still has the stock Captivate and she's got nearly 700 apps installed on it.

I'm really curious as to how I can see what files are in the internal storage and how big they are so I can figure out what to dump. I really don't want to have to go back to square one. I'm rooted and I have Root Explorer and ROM Manager but so far I've not been able to determine whether I've got something on the phone that is eating up a lot of space unnecessarily. Thanks.

If you're running the JH2 firmware, check to make sure you've turned off GPS debugging. Steps to do that are in the JH2 firmware thread, starting with post #300. Then, delete the GPS logs and your problem will be solved.

Yea it logs an INSANE amount of GPS data, and by that I mean turn on gps and open maps for a minute or two and thats 10mb of data logged. I'd Imagine if you left it on to actually navigate somewhere you'd eat up 600 megs every 30 minutes of use.
