[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmtalon:
Been unplugged for 2h 58m

My top is Cell Standby at 25%

Bottom is Display at 6%

rooted/forever/2.1/Hydra uv stock clock

I have auto-adjust off and keep the screen fairly dim, simply because that's how I like it not to save battery.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fortesquieu:
Im not sure if it is an issue but CM6 will show high display usage, where else other ROMs would usually show cell standby higher.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berzerker7:
High display usage is a common theme on every single phone...it's what takes up the most battery in devices. Turn down your brightness if it's getting to be too much for you. Keep in mind that charge is the percentages of the battery taken up so far. so 75% of battery if you only have 10% gone is only 7.5% of your total battery.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] brtguy:
I have the annoying time zone issue with my TP2. I edited the 2330fc3c file to add additional cities, including the same city that appears in My Location. However, the two have different time zones, that's right, same place but different time zones. Therefore, it appears that wherever the weather app gets its info from does not have the right time zone info for my city. So while my entry is correct My Location shows the same city but in a different time zone. Where does the weather app gets its info from? Maybe I can contact the source and have them check and update their info.

TIA.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindaika:
So I recently flashed the Vibrant6 ROM, and now my paid apps are not being recognized as purchased any longer. I'm definitely signed in using the same Google account. Is this a Google-side problem?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerosource:
Does this mean apps are restricted by ROMs?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
I've been reading and flashing all afternoon.

I have a non-simlocked phone but it has a Virgin Media bootscreen and a link app on the home page to their website.

I've flashed successfully twice with WWE ROMs but after it's all done, it goes through the device setup screens (as expected) but when it gets round to the home screen, the Virgin stuff pops up again.

It's almost like I do really flash it, but the branding is persisting for some reason and I can't do any OTA Froyo updates or anything as it is presumably looking for the Virgin version which may never come.

So, what am I doing wrong here?

Cheers,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
What is the full name of the RUU you have flashed with?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
These are the ones I used:

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe

RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe

Both ran the course successfully and so I expected the Virgin stuff to have gone, only for it to reappear.

Have I used the right ones?

Only other thing (if relevant) is that I haven't rooted and my current end goal is a plain old vanilla Froyo from HTC (official version). I had planned on using these ROM's to enable an OTA update to take place you see...

EDIT: I see this page says to have the update.zip on the SD whereas the method I was doing was get into bootloader on the phone and run the exe on the PC.

http://www.droid-den.com/phone-guides/phone-guide-how-to-root-the-htc-desire <--see section 4 for the extra file that they say to use.

Thanks for any advice dudes - I've been going round in circles with this for 4 hours now!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
It'd seem those two RUUs have Virgin branding included, especially if you were able to run them without a goldcard.

If all you want to do is end up with stock froyo just run the RUU directly:

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...3.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe

This will require a goldcard.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
Ok thanks a lot for that.

I'm a bit new to Android coming from years of WinMo - can I ask how does it work that after the ROM's been flashed that the Virgin stuff comes back?

Is there a portion of the phone's ROM that doesn't get overwritten? I'm on T-Mobile for a network so it's not getting it from my SIM.

Cheers,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
Ignore that information, it's out of date.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
I haven't looked at those two RUUs, but they could contain code to install some Virgin branding after flashing if your phone has a Virgin CID.

An RUU will flash the entire phone's software.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
So the Goldcard lets me flash the ROM but then afterwards the CID kicks in and tells the newly installed firmware to be carrier specific then?

Ok, my end goal has changed very slightly - get to a stock HTC 2.2 ROM and get rid of the Virgin branding!

Going for some food - back in 15 mins! I want to get this sorted!

Thanks,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
Normally that won't happen. If you flash stock froyo you should get rid of any Virgin branding.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
Ok, I'm going in.

Call 999 if I'm not back in half an hour :-)

I will report back soon!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
Remember you need a goldcard, or you'll be back sooner than you hope.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebongo:
All done thanks.

Yes I used my Goldcard and it's all gone through fine, same as the others, except...(drum roll)...no Virgin branding!!!!

I tried an update check afterwards and nothing's available - all up to date - I assume then this is the newest build out there and there's nothing else to update now?

Thanks a million for your help - if I could buy you a beer or two I would but the chances of you being near SW Essex in the UK are low.

Cheers,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
Heh, thanks. That is the latest unbranded build, yes - make sure you use a goldcard whenever you want to install future OTA updates though.
[XPERIA X10 General] johndub71:
I've kinda been lucky to have had 3 x10's through faults, but there's a but.

My background us that am a tv/ vcr engineer, and I've come across "fudges" to mask faults.

So here goes. All 3 x10's have low call volume. All 3 ear pieces vibrate/resonate at max ear volume.

So imagine if the in ear volume is increased further, more vibration/distortion. Hence low volume, lessons the vibration.

My ten penneth.
[XPERIA X10 General] tigermrk:
yep agreed there

mine does also

any increase is sure to make it worse at max volume, and it bugs the hell out of me 2.
[XPERIA X10 General] roaringhere:
So, now I get it! That's why on the promotional video, the babe was using bluetooth headset all the time, and never been seen using the phone earpiece for calling etc... We should all buy the bluetooth headset then. The only problem is, I cannot find that white bluetooth headset in the market, I've searched everywhere already... :confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] johndub71:
I think cheapest solution is to have ears syringed regular.

Seriously though, it has to be the mounting of the ear piece speaker what's causing the resonance.

I'm 40, and I can hear it, so its clearly a design floor.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] brandenk:
It may exist but I havent found anything quite like I need. I am hoping to keep track of customers, the inventory they purchased, and how much cash was received.

I started a small business making things for RC airplanes but it will work for anything RC, I am less interested in how much inventory I have, and really only interested in the inventory I sell, for how much, and hopefully even see past orders from repeat customers.

I know its a lot, but I would even be willing to pay someone $500 for their time, I am hoping to open up a business in 6 months and I would like to take advantage of android tablets to do my business running an app like this.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] neodorian:
Hm...not sure how well this works with inventory but it does allow you to take credit card payments from your phone:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charlos_OOO:
Today we had a strange phenomenon...

After a lightning stroke near to our Office (less than 20m distance -> into a tree), the batteries of our smartphones were "completely" discharged (HTC HD2->13%, HTC Desire -> 11%, Iphone 3GS: 20%)... we all had something about 70-80percent battery status before....

Would be interesting for me, if somebody had a equal experience (somewher els another time...)....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Motagaly:
Yes, it is related...

As far as I know the EMF produced by a near thunder (in your case it was 20 m) will cause batteries to discharge and

it is a health hazard too

.

I might be wrong too, please check those links,

I am sure this is a dumb question, but I am totally stumped. Anyone know what the orange color clock in the stock messaging app means? I have a few messaging threads going but a couple usually have the orange clock next to them. I cant figure out what that is suppose to signify!

Nice! Samsung just gave us a new free game! Sadly, it's another racing game. But judging from a quick ride, at least it's not bad.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelm718:
I'm not sure if maybe it has a custom rom on it (bought it second hand) which is why the update fails or if I need to update it via the computer.

I searched for an update and found update 1.32.651.6 (13mb.14mb) Fota update is available. When it starts installing it goes about half way and I get a red question mark and the phone restarts itself and when I try updating it again it says that the update was corrupt and re-downloads it and this has happened around 9 times now.

This is my software info:

2.1-update1 (I want 2.2!)

Kernel is2.6.29-a2443432 htc-kernel and18-2 #1

software version 1.32.651.1

Looks like you have stock without root. Try SimpleRoot and gain root access and nand unlock, then flash a custom rooted 2.2 ROM. There are also stock rooted ROMs as well if you like the stock Sprint feel.

Thanks I was already on my way to root because of this which is sort of funny imo. Couldn't get official Sprint 2.2 so I'm forced to root haha. Well I was planning on rooting anyway, but later on when speed would become an issue, but this will be great now so thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtady:
Whenever I do the speed test with my phone, the highest score I've been able to get is 1.27 mbps, but on average its about .80. I live near chicago so I figured I'd get better speeds and I noticed many people are getting up to 5 mbps.

Is there a radio update I need or is this the phone, or is it the area? I test it when i'm outside with clear skies and it stills only shows that much.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PSP_Hacker:
I usually get great speeds. My maximum has been near 7 mbit/sec down., and my average is 3 mbit/s.

When I hold my phone tightly, the signal goes down, but I never lose a call or any bandwidth. Try putting the phone on a table.

When I had my G1 I was having crappy speeds (maximum 1.5 mbit/s down, average 0.8 mbit/s) compared to what T-Mobile is capable of. Your problems could be location. Maybe, just maybe, it's the device, but I highly doubt that.

[Hero CDMA General] Sputnikk23:
So I'm a network admin. I use strong passwords, alphas, numerics, etc.. keep a tight lid on what i install. AVs, spyware scans, etc.. no crap gets on my systems. Its been quite a number of years since I've had to clean out any of my systems.

Moving on...

My boss hands me a mini today from one of her family members - supposedly it has a bug and they didn't want to pay the geeksquad people.

Hearing that it has a bug, I didn't want to put it on the work network so I decided to hook it up to the wifi tether on my phone and download malware bytes via that. I figured - no windows bug is getting on my linux phone. I didn't think about any network-based attacks.

Few hours later, I turn my tether off and go to lunch when I visit my chiro twice a week. I'm laying down getting my back all jazzed up when my phone pops up with a "sign-in" error to my gmail. The password that I knew to be true didn't work. I hop on the bike and rush back to work.

I find all my googles signed out. I attempt to sign back in and get prompted with "suspicious activity detected, please verify". I did so through SMS and was prompted for my OLD password - which worked to my surprise (hacking 101: when you get in, first thing you do is change the pass). I was then prompted to change the pass which I did. I logged in to my gmail and saw a mobile login from an IP in peru. I also found quite a number of NDRs in my inbox (20 or so) with just a URL in it - so it was compromised for spam purposes.

Doing scans on all my systems, no sniffers or keyloggers running. They never had a chance to but just in case, i ran the scans anyway. My only thought is that mini connected to the net through my phone.

I'm thinking that since the phone presents itself as a wireless router and hands out DHCP, whatever local IP the phone sets itself to becomes the default gateway for the mini. If that mini is truly infected (at the moment, I'm not finding anything on it), and it does a network scan type of thing - could it have picked up some SMTP port that our android kernel keeps open? At that point, it wouldn't need my password (which would make sense that my old password worked). I didn't give it much thought at the time but I did think that a few hundred MBs of download was kinda high while the tether was connected.

So thats my question to anyone familiar with the kernel - network wise, are there any open, unsecured (smtp is unsecure in its nature..) services ran by the kernel? Once the phone goes into router mode and gives itself a local ipv4 address and a node (in this case the mini) hops onto the same subnet - those services would be readily accessible to that node.

IE: this bug scanned for port 25 or something.
