[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thediesel32:
Hi, Im new to here (to posting), so I apologise if this has been asked before.

I have a Desire that has Next G software on it and I would like to get 2.2 Froyo without any of the Telstra stuff on it.

For some reason I cant root it and I have been looking at a way to downgrade it. Can i ask what are your opinions of the most effective way to do that?

I have been looking and I can not find a guide that is specific for Telstra handsets at how to downgrade them so I can get Froyo on them.

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melben:
Hi

I have a Telstra desire and was able to root with HBOOT 0.75 and also with 0.83. I think your problem may be with rooting rather than with HBOOT.

Try the whirlpool forums for Australian specific advice.

I can't remember exactly what my telstra desire had but I remember I had to use the wrong version for the boot software that was installed as standard.

Thanks, I will look into that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] billslost:
I want to preface my questions by fully acknowledging my complete ignorance on this subject. Nothing is worse than someone who won't do their own leg work. I've hesitated posting these questions just because I didn't want to waste anyone's time. However, after spending literally hours I just ran out of options. I'm turning to the geniuses on XDA for some help.

I have the CDMA (Sprint) version of the Touch Pro2. I just installed the latest 2.2 build (the one that supports the external speaker).

There are 2 questions.

1. Is accessing the Marketplace for paid apps possible with the TP2 and this build of Android? If so, what changes do I need to make to my device to enable that capability. Right now I can only see free apps.

2. I was trying to get Flash to work. It doesn't show up in the Marketplace. I tried to install the apk file from a thread on this forum (can't post the link as a new user). However, I received a generic failed installation message. I also tried using SkyFire 2.3 (BETA). But when I navigate to a site with Flash on it I see a little box telling me to download Flash Player.

I really appreciate any help that I can get on this. Again, I apologize if I missed earlier discussions on these topics.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
For the paid apps you have to download the market enabler. It's in the faq ;) http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/faq Look for "I can't see any paid apps available for purchase in the Market."

I don't know if you can get flash enabled because we haven't got 3d working yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] billslost:
Thanks

Thank you very much. I really appreciate your time in answering the questions. I'm installing Market Enabler now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HJ200:
Hi everyone,

Today I got the idea to set the softbarbuttons using Cookie's Home Tab mod instead of using the original button images. This way I was able to remove the close and ok button background, while replacing it with the Windows 7 'show desktop' bar/button.

See screenshots below.

As I'm very pleased with the result, I wanted to share it with you :)

Usage:

Make sure you have Cookie's Home Tab 1.8.5 or higher installed

Pick your favorite wallpaper, copy to phone

Open the Win7200.psd and paste your own wallpaper as background

Save as jpg or png to your phone

Use Cookie's Mod to set the wallpaper you want

Use Cookie's Mod to set the Softbar and Taskbar to the image you created, don't softreset

Install the cab to remove the button backgrounds and windows button, softreset now

PS: taskbar and softbar images can be colored if you like by editing the layers in the .psd

Update:

As I couldn't get to sleep, I made another theme, based on the Hewlett Packard wallpaper Titanium1.

Update 2:

Made another theme.

I have started to notice that when I'm roaming, pretty sure only when roaming, I get an electronic message stating that the Verizon wireless network is having difficulty authenticating my phone or something to that effect. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a way to make it not occur? I'm using the current Fresh release with kingklick #4 kernel

Please, for the love of God, use the search. There's a dozen threads on this. Really.

Call Sprint, get to EVO Technical Support, tell them your PRI updated and now you get a message that Verizon can't authorize your phone. They'll do some work on their end, and have you do a factory reset, so back up your crap first.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benshtc:
Thanks for your reply drdouchenheimer I'm more than aware of the search function and have retraced the threads that I frequent as well as searched for similar issues posted. Obviously I didn't use some proper search terms or whatever which led me to posting in the proper forum at least and I have talked with Sprint for about an hour or so as well. The tech will be doing research on their end and will be getting back to me. I love it when people pad there posting stats either telling people to search, or complaining about other peoples posts. No one asked you to respond so if you think I'm wasting thread space as well as your valuable time ignore the post and refrain from your snide commentary.

And you're just encouraging that nobody will help you. Look around, really. A simple search for "verizon roaming error" would've gotten you the results, and if you keep calling back, and telling them exactly like I said, you will get the problem fixed.

But hey, go have fun sitting around for a few hours. Unlike the other 56 people that looked at this thread, I helped, but now I'll be like the other 56 and ignore your plea.

Good day.
[XPERIA X10 General] fast rock:
Hi,

HTC have started shipping their handsets with Sony's Super LCD instead of AMOLED screens ..

My question is, is it the same screen that we have on our X10 or is it a new thing?

Every body seems to compare Super LCD with AMOLED, but what is the different between it and LCD?

Thanks :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Gentimp:
I think its a new thing. HTC normally has multi touch, the X10 not. So it can't and shouldn't be the same.
[XPERIA X10 General] fast rock:
But the multi-touch isn't in the screen itself .. When we say screen we mean the display only without the touch layer ..
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Its not the same as our x10. I'm pretty sure the x10 is just lcd.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cinner:
Isn't "super LCD" just plain old marketing?
[XPERIA X10 General] Gentimp:
Totally true, my bad. But it might be different because sony would have promoted this X10 for having this super lcd, which they didn't.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cinner:
My guess is HTC are calling it super lcd because they don't want customers to think they replaced AMOLED with something inferior. I wouldn't be surprised if there is nothing special about this LCD.
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
Perhaps they use an IPS instead of a TN panel and call it super-lcd? this would really make a difference in display quality. just a guess...
[XPERIA X10 General] mmk92:
super LCD is way cheaper than AMOLED, works better under sunlight but consumes greater battery, AFAIK its the same screen in the x10
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
it could just be marketing but htc claims that super-lcds provide a better battery life than AMOLED. Sources: here, here and here

Btw, I don't really think sony (who are the developers of super-lcd) would build in a super-lcd in X10 and don't promote it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medicalsounds:
I'm trying to figure out the root cause of the HTC Evo not being able to stream aac content after upgrading to 2.2. Can anyone help me out?

Two questions:

1. Where can I get the source code of the HTC Evo Android 2.2?

2. Can anyone help me debug this issue? I like to post logs but forum doesn't allow me :(... If I had the source maybe I would be able to dive into and see what the errors mean...

Thanks!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
What are you trying to stream? What app are you using? Is it HE-AAC (AAC+) or HE-AAC V2 (eAAC+), by any chance?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Would it have killed you to search? There's a dozen threads on this matter.

Basically, Google dropped the ball when they release Froyo, and Stagefright (the media engine in Froyo) screws up AAC+ streams (like Pandora, Slacker, DI.fm, etc.). There's a fix in the wild that Google put out, but few ROMs have adopted it (CyanogenMod Nightly and RC2 are the only ones I know of that have). The only alternative is to edit your /system/build.prop file and change the line "media.stagefright.enable-http=true" to "media.stagefright.enable-http=false" then reboot. Of course, to do that, you need NAND unlocked (aka, Toast's Pt. 2, Full Root, etc., etc.)

tl;dr: go get CyanogenMod and learn how to search.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgreaves:
Sprint/HTC's OTA update, 3.29.651.5 released the last week of September, fixes the AAC streaming problem. (Remember the issue was Google's Android Froyo 2.2. Google acknowledged and fixed this, however it is up to each carrier-manufacturer to incorporate-and-release the Google fix).

Pandora and other streming media & players produced exceedingly poor sound with AACs (not Pandora's fault, nor Sprint's, nor HTC's).

HTC/Sprint Release 3.29.651.5 mentions NOTHING about including this fix (so I haven't tried pandora or other streaming apps for weeks).

Noting this (2 week old) post below, i tried Pandora again, and it is AWESOME.

(sorry, can't post the link cause i'm new: but don't trust me...just try it)

It was already fixed (nice job Google/Sprint/HTC), and I didn't know it (not so good job, Sprint/HTC).

I LOVE MY EVO (again).
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwilso82:
I was able to root by simply step 1 download.ing the PC36IG.zip to the phone. Sept two I used androzip (get it from market) to movie the PC36IG.Zip to your SD card. You do this by going into android.zip go to downloads and long press on the pc36ig.zip scroll down and select move. Use your back arrow to get out of downloads and click move here. Step 3 turn off the phone then turn it back on and hold down vol down. Phone should try to install it but it will fail but turn it off and turn back on holding down vol down. This time it should go through. Once phone booted back up I was on 2.1update. Step 4 I used unrevocked3 to root and then I installed a custom fresh 2.2 Rom. I did this on my Evo running stock ota 2.2. This worked and was lot more simple to do. P.s make sure u install the drivers for unrevocked when rooting
[EVO 4G Android Development] Capodondiggy:

But Judging from his post count I think it is BS!
[EVO 4G Android Development] pflatlyne:
Also possible he had a replacement from sprint that was previously rooted and then updated to the stock 2.2 before it was returned but still had the hacked bootloader and such on it.

Anyone have a link to download one? I can't find it anywhere.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglowe343:
You only have a choice of RA or Clockwork. The stock recovery, as far as I know, wasn't something we could actually access. Though I could be wrong. Custom recovery is a part of being rooted. Without it you couldnt flash anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmerck:
Shoot. The reason I'm looking for it is due to the stock recovery floating around for the Incredible.

I've unrevoked, forevered, froyoed, rooted, and reverted to a stock recovery on my phone to allow any additional software upgrades to my Incredible, with my friend's evo... I figured I could do the same.

The only thing to complete now is the stock recovery.

Hmmmmm
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
I just extracted this from the 3.26.651.6 OTA and packaged it. It should do the trick. Dump it on the root of your SD card and reboot into the bootloader.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
I have my phone rooted but want to receive the OTA update. There are several posts on the forum about this. I did as instructed and ran an original PB...img file. It gave me the .79 boot loader but it also wiped my phone. Is there a way to just flash the hboot/recovery without wiping the phone?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
Well I found a proper ..img file that had just the .79 bootloader in it. Now I'm wondering if the OTA will run without all the stock apps. I have the original radio but I have removed some bloatware and changed the boot animation. I will post this as question but there seems to be some confusion in the forum about what is necessary to recive OTA.

I am running MS voice command 1.6.19964 with the password protect option switched off so that i can run commands from the lock screen. But for some unknown reason it no longer works from the lock screen. I have checked and unchecked the 'password protected' option, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I have found the key in the registry and it switches from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0 when I check and uncheck the password protect option but it still does not work on the lock screen.

Any Ideas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
You may want to try reinstalling. Also may depend on what lock screen you have and your version of MSVC.

It works on mine with CHT Lockscreen and MSVC 1.6.19965
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dno32:
I have already tried reinstalling it which didnt fix it. I am running the HeartofWolf lock screen and it was working ok but I must have messed around with a setting somewhere and it stopped working.

I have just uninstalled and reinstalled the lock screen and now it works as long as it is connected to the car kit. If it is not connected to the car kit it still does not work. This is a compromise I can live with as I only use voice commands when I am driving.

Hi guys,

The past few days, I have been having some issues with the alarm clock on my phone. I have 4 alarms set...12:00, 12:30, 1:00 and 1:30 with no snooze. I have noticed the past couple of days that it seems like not all of the alarms are going off. Yesterday it seemed that the 12 and 1 alarms went off, but not the others. Today, only the 12:00 alarm went off. I ended that one and decided to wake up to the 12:30 alarm. Well, 1:10 rolled around and I woke up, but not to an alarm. I looked at my phone, and it was stuck on the lock pattern screen, and the phone was hot. I could not get the phone to respond, so I powered it off and back on.

I am a little concerned about this, and wondered if anyone could offer any insight. I am stock android, and running openhome for my home. I also have advanced task killer, paid, installed if that might make a difference.

Thanks in advance!
[Captivate General] locsplitter:
I haven't messed around with the alarm clock yet, but did you make sure your phone wasn't on silent/vibrate only mode? Kind of a stupid response, it seems like a phone's alarm would work even with those modes on anyways.

Hopefully you can get another answer.

Do you have a task killer? If so, uninstall. That will be my bet on why.

The same thing happened to me this morning, and I was late to work! My alarm did not go off and I woke up seeing my phone showing the lock pattern screen, and I could not turn off the display. I had to turn it off and back on to get it to work normally again.

One thing I did notice was that I received a text message while I was sleeping. It was from AT&T notifying me that I'm close to my data limit. I don't know if either (receiving a text message in general or receiving a text message from AT&T) matters.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneto417x:
I used the RUU exe leak that is suppose to be same as OTA
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nsh777:
Well I'm certainly no "expert" at this but I have been reading quite a bit lately about how to gain root access after the OTA comes out (I was rooted with the July leaked 2.2, but last night I installed uforever and then reverted back to 2.1 and 1.0 radio for the pending OTA). Try following this link and check out the bottom of the page where it talks about "reinstalling an official recovery"...it gives the download to re-install clockwork recovery (this is of course if you have S-off). Then it also gives the download to get back superuser access. Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but if your version of 2.2 is exactly the same as the OTA, this should work just the same for you. Good Luck!

Because all of those sites are pirated. With the exception of a few like Netflix and Hulu, the streaming sites just host or index unlicensed uploads of videos.
