[Droid Incredible General] abrin:
This has been a consistant test for me as I jump around between ROMS due to the fact that I like to play my DINC emulators with a WiiMote (Yes, I'm nerdy enough to carry one in my backback when I commute). It's been pretty consistant that all the Sense ROMS don't work while the Senseless roms do.

Confirmed working:

CM6

Ruby 1.1.0 and 1.1.1

Confirmed not working:

SR 3

Virt 2.6 & 2.7

Leaked 2.2

Stock 2.1

Not Tested:

SR3 Vanilla

Why we couldn't take the bluetooth stack from one of the working ones and put it on a Sense one, I don't know. I'm honestly not knowledgeable enough to even attempt it nor know anyone who has. I've actually a little surprised this subject isn't brought up more, I'm guessing most people either don't use bluetooth or it works enough for their needs.
[Droid Incredible General] bdusmc:
BUMP!

Is anyone looking into porting/adapting the CM6 BT Stack for sense ROMS?

I tried messing around with it, but am still having problems... I have a semi-flashable zip in progress if anyone can help me figure out what to do next.

I bought an htc hd2 in europe and brought it to canada, for the most part it works but it keeps freezing and the different screens and menu options are sketchy. Also my text messages show up as recieved 4 hours earlier than they actualy are. I've already checked my regional settings and time zone so that is not the problem. Also Im not getting 3g even though both the phone and Rogers wireless support it. What can i do to fix this?

Does your phone still have the original Carrier settings on..?? If so then this is the problem.... Try and flash the:) rom maybe....

Ok after browsing all these ROMS and basically starting to get a headache lol, can anyone recommend a rom thats stock froyo (or close to as I use the football app and the nascar app etc) that also allows me to tether wifi. Ive probably looked at over 7 roms maybe more and they all seem custom in some way shape or form which im not interested in. I did look at the stock rooted 2.2 but I dont think it suits my needs, unless theres something im missing about tethering
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derrickj:
Once you are rooted, the wireless tether application for root users will work on every rom. You can use any stock rom of your liking and then add the wireless tether app from the market and you will be all set.

OP,

I understand your headaches since I am basically wanting the same thing. But after a little looking around, think that the ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=743352 is what you are looking for. They use to have a thread on just ROMs, how they have been modified, etc.

Also krazyconejo, maybe this is a way for a developer to help out a user? I know that the developers love to have their ROMs used, or at least some input instead of jumping on a guy, maybe you should strongly suggest for future education. Sometimes it is better to coach a fellow member than hit him over the nose with a rolled up news paper (figuritively speaking) - without being disrespectful to you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tower1972:
Krazy..ive spent the past few hours searching and reading this section of the forums, so excuse me for posting here and upsetting you lol. Since this is a question about ROMS specifically and this section has them all listed, I felt it would be better answered here, then in a general Q&A section. I tend to value the replies I get in a specific forum topic more then a general one
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazyconejo:
like I said before I usually don't say anything and just ignore it. But if I come to the developing section, I expect to see that and not waste my time with this.

As for OP sorry for being mean but if you would had posted this in the right place, I'm petty sure someone would had helped.

*Not gonna respond anymore. OP if you still help pm me and let's just let this thread die.

Sorry, I didn't get past this part. I'm still too busy reeling from the discovery that someone actually uses those two apps to recommend that you use DamageControl 3.5 or something based from it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
lol.....I concur.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
This may be true however it is still the wrong place to post this. questions go in questions forum or in the thread of a specific rom/kernal if they pertain to it. since this is a general questions about roms and doesnt fit into a specific rom thread it belongs in the Q&A forum. Most of the people who will give you a true answer from dev also frequently go to the QA section. also yuo will get flamed less and not have to wade through as many posts telling you that you posted wrong.

To answer your question. You can use wifi tether with stock rooted froyo or almost any custom rom. you can still use football/nascar you can try Damage control 3.5 which will let you easily select what you want to have or not of the sprint apps and have the rest removed. you can also use roms like fresh Evio and baked snacks and install the .spk for those 2 apps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echoside:
Baked snack then install nascar and football apk. If you need them im sure they are floating around here somewhere if not pm me.

You could also try fresh. He puts all the apks he removes in a folder on your sdcard.

And yes I am a nascar fan and a football fan..And since Verizon has the good app lol..I use what I got!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
You could also probably find those .apks by browsing for a folder of the Fresh Removed .apks folder that comes with the Fresh ROM, or just find some Fresh user to upload them for you.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutionqy7:
been using Prestige X Rom for quite a while now and its been nice and smooth up to a while now...but the developers seem to be unreliable to bring out any new builds...

so im looking is there a stock like clean rom without bloatware with windows 7 icons and decent performance that looks like this...the screen is not hard to make its just CHT with the shorcuts and a custom wallpaper and it makes it look nice simple and unique...

ive snooped around and cant find anything like it and i dont like any of the icon sets on rom here that would look as nice and stock...not a fan of the stock icon sets either...

the only W7 theme i found is a bit outdated and you cant change lockscreen or certain bits and pieces of the rom cause devs did something to it...and the rom hasnt got any updates in a few months now...so if any willing to make a theme to go with the newest ROMs or a ROM like it with all the updates would get a nice donation from me :)

heres the sources of something im looking for

Win7 Theme

Presige X ROM

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tramane:
I have no knowledge of programming for android. But I was wondering how hard it would ber to make an app that uses the lame mp3 encoder to down sample an audio file.

Best example is, I cut a ringtone using ringdroid, the file is 600kb because my mp3 was 192kbps.

I open the tool and down sample it to 64kbps, now the file is only 150kb. Yaaay now my ringtone is smaller and I can share my tone with friends via mms.

Future versions or paid version could include amplify, or normalize, I'm sure these 1ghz phones can handle it. I have seen an app called hificorder which records audio his the mic and allows you to set a compression level, so I'm gonna assume these devices are indeed capable of the resampling.

Any takers?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tramane:
Hmmm,

Any comments anyone?

[Streak 5 General] Farbod:
I've been trying to keep the battery cover locked into the unit but it comes off when I have it in my pocket (just got the phone couple of days ago)! So I started looking closer today and I see the last hinge doesn't go all the way down. Anyone else experimenting the same thing?

Thanks in advance
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Looks like you don't have it seeded all the way in. Make sure u push hard enough that the lid on the top is on with no gaps.

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
Hinge?

Mine has a plate that comes off entirely, it's quite a tight fit to get it to slide fully up into the locked position, though it's getting a bit looser as time goes by.
[Streak 5 General] flumps:
by hinge we mean the rubberish grip the plate secures into. your problem is simple and one many many users have had. just like the user above stated to you need to really push the back plate on to secure it.

please use the search function next time
[Streak 5 General] ztm.000:
Yeah... Seriously guys, this is an easy fix... Just make sure that when you're putting the battery door on you have all of the locks in place.
[Streak 5 General] Farbod:
Thank you. I know that the plate needs to be pushed hard but trust me, I have pushed the cover as hard as possible. If the cover wasn't completely locked, both side would be sticking up. This is only right side back end.
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
Check that all six hooks are straight and that there's nothing blocking the hole that the suspect hook fits into. Mine drops into place very easily so yours should do the same.
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
Loctite Superglue :eek:
[Streak 5 General] distortion:
I had a similar "issue" . Seemed like I had to apply excessive pressure to slide it on. I was concerned that I would break the display I was pushing so hard. I just found it went on best for me if I laid it display side down on a microfiber cloth and securely slid it on. Popped on and clicked. No problems since.

Hi every one

wondering if there was any app that would let us browse the Root of the phone in windows ,

Using ADB is quite hard i think ...

just want to remove an app , and add another one to /system/app

tried Root Explorer on the phone , but the deleted program magically reappears after a reboot

any help would be appreciated !

thanks !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Were you in Recovery when you attached via Root Explorer?

You can't delete anything from /system whilst the phone is fully booted due to the NAND protection.

Also, take a look at Android Commander.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyWalker1726:
thanks for the reply , but Adroid Commander Didnt solve my problem , it can't edit /system , since the phone is fully booted ( as u mentioned )

and no , i was not in recovery mode , since ROOT exploerer is installed on my phone , i have to boot it , to use it

thanks !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I thought you said you wanted a Windows app - Android Commander should work fine as long as you boot into Recovery.

There is currently *no* true solution for amending /system whilst the phone is booted, though some people are working on AUFS/UNIONFS workarounds which IMHO, are always going to be a suboptimal solution, and in most cases R/W access via Recovery is the better solution (things like Metamorph not withstanding!).

Regards,

Dave
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyWalker1726:
yes , i need a program to edit /system on windows

i read on their webpage ( androidcommande.com ) that it needed USB Debugging to work correctly so i tried it with the phone on and bootedc , but didn;'t work and didn't change /system .

tried it on recovery , but the files are not displayed correclty , the folders are empty and some doesn't even show up

anyway thanks for ur time and answers

PS : tried ADB command but wthout any success
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
You have to mount the appropriate filesystem(s) from Recovery first!

If you are using ClockworkMod recovery, go into the partitions menu and select mount for any file systems you wish to access. Then connect via AndroidCommander and you'll be able to see the files.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyWalker1726:
Thanks !

used Clockwork as u suggested , mont /system/ , then adb remount

Searched for some ADB tutorials and got it via the commands

was a bit confused bout "shell" or "not to shell "

but everything worked fine :)

Thanks again for all ur help !
[General Topics] kanwal236:
I like many of you, have a love for the newest, fastest phones, but am also around wifi all the time. Then comes the companies forcing us to buy data plans along with our phones. Currently with AT&T, I have a smartphone without a data plan, I believe it's because I got this before AT&T changed it's T&C about data plans. When I got a smartphone in the past, I would be required to have the data plan at first, but I would be able to cancel it after the first 30 days.

Looking at t-mobile, you cannot cancel the data plan or any other services during the life of the contract.

AT&T, will now add a data plan onto your account regardless

Verizion's terms and conditions page was apparently down for me

Sprint's terms and conditions are really abstract =(

Is there any way you can still get around the data plan requirement?

Possibly like I did with at&t before but also put a data block on the account to prevent them from adding a new data plan?

t-mobile is ok if i pay for the phone out of pocket with their no contract plan, but i'm looking to buy 4 smart phones, or at the very least 2.

anyone have any ideas about this issue?

please no arguments like: "the phone is meant to be used with a data plan"

because the phone is meant to be used with the internet and wifi = internet
[General Topics] Tarzanman:
The only answer is to not sign a contract with the carrier. Buy a phone from a 3rd party, or pay the extra money up front for a no-contract.

Even then, most android phones are set to automatically transmit data back to the carrier, so you will have to go over all the settings very carefully to make sure that the carrier doesn't have a reason to charge you off-plan data rates.

As far as I know, the smaller carriers don't require a data plan for user-owned equipment. I know AT&T does for the iphone and I imagine that Verizon probably does for their android line
[HD2 General] Ali_Shaikh:
I just bought it from eBay and it came in today. It had Laurentus26 on it, which was really buggy. So I reset it, but then it wouldn't go past HTC screen, then I flashed Stock ROM(T-mo) on it, and now its stuck at Stick Together screen. What is wrong with my phone please help I'm so sad :(
[HD2 General] crokdy:
i think i had the same prob...

turn your phone off....press the down volume and the power at the same time and flash a new compatible rom, be careful with the radio......
[HD2 General] Ali_Shaikh:
Yes I tried MANY MANY times using the PC. But it still gets stuck. And now its stuck at "SOFTWARE UPDATE FAILED"

How do I force install from MicroSD?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
1. go here to get the latest official ROM:

http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/DeviceDownloads.aspx?pid=leo

2. Unzip the download and find the .nbh file. Rename it LEOIMG.nbh.

Put this file on the root of the storage card (the stock 16gb that came with the phone won't work). I recommend buying a 10 dollar sandisk 2gb for flashing.

3. Put the phone into bootloader mode. Easiest way to get into bootloader: press the reset button under the back cover followed by immediately holding the vol down rocker. Bootloader is the funny looking tricolored screen. It should stop on the screen for a couple of seconds, then jump to a grey screen that asks if you want to perform the update. Press the red end call button (power) to start or vol down to cancel.

That should do it. It should start installing. If not, I'm not sure what else can be done. This method will also "relock" the phone so you can't install any custom ROMs unless you hspl unlock again.

Good Luck
[HD2 General] Ali_Shaikh:
I tried an old Nokia 2GB card, it just goes to the screen where it says Serial. It's not recognizing a rom on the card. It also says "Update ROM code error. Please try again" it happened after I installed the last ROM on this list: http://www.vbnfiles.com/xda/xmoo/Leo/TMOUS/ since it had the most downloads.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
Are you getting that error when trying to flash from the card or from a computer via usb?

IF you get a ROM code error that means it is trying to flash it. I would go to the website I listed. It has you enter the S/N for the phone so you know it is the right Stock ROM.

p.s. Is it a tmobile branded hd2?
[HD2 General] Ali_Shaikh:
yeah its a T-Mo HD2, and yes that's where I got the ROM after entering my IMEI #, it gives some other error on PC, and gets stuck at 8%. Also, while flashing that ROM it wasn't connected to Device Center, since the PC wouldn't recognize it.

I called T-MO and they are sending me a brand new one, anything I can do in the meantime?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
if you have to send this one back to them, it needs to be stock or bricked.

Once you get the new hd2, I would try to flash a .51 radio onto the one you need to send in. That will brick it so they can't see that is not stock.
[HD2 General] Ali_Shaikh:
How do I do that?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
same way you flash a ROM, either through usb or from SD card:

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

Download a .51 radio and extract the .nbh file, rename it LEOIMG.nbh and put it on the storage card, enter bootloader, if it will flash, voila; instant brick!

I would only do this if they want the old one sent in and you can't get a stock ROM on it.
