Haha. Yes... Yes it is.

Check the sticky for sending your phone back. I put it all in there

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hamder:
Hi. I were running a rooted stock rom with the newest radio and spl and ra recovery. I decided to try rom manager(i think thats what its called). I flashed the recovery, i believe it is called clockwork. When i rebooted my phone it just keeps rebooting at the htc logo. I cant enter recovery or anything. Is there a way out of this or can i just throw it in the dumpster?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Can you get into fastboot? Take the battery out and pop it back in. Then try powering on holding down back+power. You should get a screen with three Androids skateboarding. If you can get the port the information here. If you can and it just does the boot loop, do the battery again hitting the back button repeatedly, give that a few tries and see where it gets you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hamder:
Thanks for your reply but i cannot get into fastboot either. Ive tried holding every single key while booting xD. It just keeps doing the same thing. Reboot at the "HTC Magic" screen. I hangs for some seconds so ive also tried to see if i could grab it from adb but without success.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kanttii:
So that means your device isn't fully bricked - your hardware seems to be working, and you should be able to restore the device using JTAG (search the forums). Though I managed to restore mine by resetting some stuff with draining battery and repeatedly trying again. I'd recommend you to try too.

Ok so i am new to android and i was wondering what i need to do to in order to keep up performance....im thinking antivirus apps or defrag.....im not really familiar with this kinda thing on a smartphone so i was basically looking for any advice...thanks in advance
[Droid X General] thepolishguy:
I don't think you need to worry about antivirus or defrag. Pretty sure those aren't much of a concern on an Android based handset.

A lot of people will tell you to get a good task killer. But I have heard people argue against them as well - stating that android knows how to manage memory and that task killers can do more harm than good.

Just keep your eye on the forum for a while. Read whenever you have some spare time and you will begin to pick up on important issues.

For the X i have seen mixed results. Some people raving about how great it is, others experiencing some issues - random resets, 3g signal coverage.

I am in the same boat as you. Brand new to Android. I am still waiting for my phone to get here in the mail. I am hoping it arrives early- like today.

Good luck.
[HD2 General] smerf1:
Hey guys,

New to the forum :D

I've had my HTC HD2 for about 2-3 months now, and recently its been running really slow and crashing all the time.

Now I was wondering, would it be wise for me to upgrade to the latest ROM, or Android?

Thank's in advance.
[HD2 General] jsmccabe78:
welcome. you can have both - new rom and android. i would do that!:)
[HD2 General] poweroutlet:
The HD2 is an awesome phone, you honestly won't find much better stuff out there.

Don't run the stock winmo rom, it's crap. Flash a custom rom and install android, which imo is much better. Soon we will have a nand version of android on our phones making it just as quick in android as native android phones.
[HD2 General] smerf1:
Thank you for the replies guys.

Now off to find tutorials lol

Any recommendations?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
lots of reading!!!!

Start with updating your info so we know where you are located and what carrier you have.

There are 3 versions of the hd2.

Euro version

Aussie version

T-mobile usa version

I would read here for a tutorial on flashing custom ROMs for the t-mobile hd2:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653614

For all others:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=609477

To flash a custom ROM you need to hspl unlock your phone.

go here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893

This will unlock all versions of the hd2.

For Android, the best 2 radios are usually 2.10 and 2.12 found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787

These radios will work on all phones and are usually good radios for all ROMs. You need a .50 radio to flash most of the custom ROMs not to mention to run Android so might as well install one of these.

Next go here and pick out a ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534

Most ROMs are compatible with all phones. Make sure if you have a tmous phone, not to flash any radio that has .51 in it. To run android you need .50 radios anyways.

I would suggest these ROMs as good ROMs to run android from:

I have personally only used this Android ROM as I have found Android to be too much like IOS and only really find the web browser to be better than WinMo:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735532

I really think that you should start with a custom ROM, get to know it, get to know about flashing before jumping into Android, but hey, it's your phone. How many other phones can dual boot?
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Alternatively, you can flash the latest Stock ROM from HTCs website.

The stock ROM isn't necessarily crap, its usually down to opinion.

I use an O2 stock ROM, and have no performance issues.
[HD2 General] ap3604:
I agree on the fact that the Stock Hd2 ROM isn't crap at all: if anything its the perfect one for me (so far)

I've tried the energy rom, the mirri rom, basic wm rom and all of them didn't do it for me looks wise.

All I really want is the basic 9 apps (iPhone style that I am used to) as my homescreen so I really don't need a ROM outside of wanting to find one with even better battery life. The Hd2's battery life has been great so far for me but is there a rom out there that is even better?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dandarebr:
Hello,

I’ve been using the phone for few days now and I’m having some problems with my e-mail. I have configured three e-mails accounts, 1 Gmail and two pop 3 mails.

The deal is that whenever I use the e-mail app I can check new e-mails, but I can’t see the old messages (the one I read before). Also, alter seeing the messages in the SGS the messages disappear from the phone AND from my e-mail server. I already checked the configuration and I have selected “Never” in the “Delete e-mail from the server” in the “Incoming server settings” of both accounts but it looks like as soon as the e-mail apps access my account it actually deletes the message from the server.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagrim1:
Do they disappear immediately?

Are you sure you don't check them elsewhere (standalone computer) where they ARE removed from the server?

Don't have that issue here, only once I check them on my home computer they are removed from the server and my phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dandarebr:
I'm sure. I was traveling, and the only way to chck my e-mail was using the phone. When I got home I tried to download the messages in the outlook and no messages were downloaded. Than I tried to acess the messages using webmail and again I couldn't fine the messages. They just disappeared.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dandarebr:
Tried again with the same results. I read the messages on the SGS and 10 seconds later the message disappears from the phone and from the server (I tried to read the messages using a Webmail page and there is no message in the inbox).

Looks like a Bug, but it's strange that I'm the only one that is experiencing this issue. I recall that I had a similar issue with my Archos, but I thought it was a problem with Android 1.6. It may be a issue with my e-mail account but it is just a simple pop 3 account. I see no reason why it would behave like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesolve:

I am having the same type problem with my samsung vibrant.I set up a pop3 account using my cable account. I can send and receive mail but my mail vanishes from the inbox. It does stay on the server luckily. Nobody at tmobil or samsung has a solution except to use k9 but it happens on it also/ So they blame isp which makes no sense since it arrives. Very frustrating

Bump- I am having this same issue. I flashed fresh 3.2 I never noticed 4g before in my area till recently. Downloading aps is wicked quick, surfing my favorite site (xda) it is way to slow.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
I would suggest opening a terminal and running a few tracerts to see what latancy is like. Or tether to your pc and see what happens or run tracerts from a command prompt.

Latency on 4g is way better than 3g/cellular.

You have to remember unless you are moving in a car there is no handoff between towers. Although you could be in the outlying edges of a town but that is back

The same is not true for cellular where you can be transfered thru countless towers to get back to a POP.

I am, or rather the company i work for is, a distributor of microwave radios, both licensed and unlicensed, and 2.5Ghz and 3.65Ghz WiMax and I actually distribute the E-Band radios Clearwire uses for backhaul on their 4G networks (because they dropped Dragonwave like a psycho girlfriend) and i also help in the design and trouble shooting, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that latency is not an issue with clearwires networks unless it is oversold too heavily (which they are). Then the radio is working too hard and, well that's what happens.

But to say 4g is slower than 3g is telling me that the network is overloaded or the radios are not setup properly (you are getting a lower QOS priority)... or... you may need to make sure you have the latest radios installed or as you guys are eluding too, maybe a rom issue

One thing people don't realize is that these 2.5Ghz radios have very limited bandwidth. Clearwire and Sprint have greatly over exaggerated these radios capabilities for the most part.

But again I think its the network not the rom although a funky rom can scew up a lot of things

No it isn't the exact same thing always. I have the shubcraft 1.4d build (PPP) Changing to GSM auto hidden menu fixed my 3g connection. But it is not the same as configuring Network Mode. You can only tick/untick "use only 2g networks" with some builds. Which also does not affect the hidden menu setting.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] memin1857:
WCDMA is actually 3G GSM. (WCDMA should not be confused with CDMA which is NOT GSM) So GSM auto means you are still using WCDMA whenever there is 3G signal. It is probably a bug and auto mode just works better. I believe it most likely changes the threshold for 3G signals. (which are usually weaker than 2G in most places)

It worked for me BTW.
