[Legend General] tsad:
I guess even HTC does not know why WiFi sometimes stops working.

My Legend got the 1.3x update OTA without any problems. When later the 2.0x update was pushed my WiFi stopped working. It showed no MAC adress in the adapter infos.

I wrote a support request to HTC but did not get an answer for about 2 weeks or so.

I found the thread here on xda developers in which is explained how to downgrade your legend. I downgraded my phone, WiFi worked again. I installed the 2.0x update OTA again and this time WiFi worked.

A few days later I received an answer from HTC. Only boilerplate stuff, not helpful at all. Later I received a mail asking me to rate their service - they received the worst marks in this rating.

When I was on holiday last week I got a phone call from HTC. Too bad I was abroad and had to pay high roaming costs - so I kept it short. They asked me about my WiFi problem. I told them that they were of no help but I solved the problem on my own. They wanted to know how and I told them.

I am sure they have no idea what causes WiFi to stop working after an update. Seems like some randomness.

Why doesnt this work on non-sense roms?

Any sense rom I tried with launcherpro people widget showed me facebook pictures perfectly.

With non-sense rom, contacts sync fine but pictures dont show up on people widget.

Same with calendar widget.. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m8tix:
You might give SyncMyPix a try which is available through market. With this tool you can sync/match your facebook contacts with your local contacts.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jastonas:
All contacts sync perfectly! The problem is that they dont show up on launcherpro people widget!

Anyone else knows this problem (and hopefully a solution to it)?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m8tix:
mhm ok I don't have any problems with that used SyncMyPix and they showed all up in the people widget of lpp.

Sorry for reviving this thread but i really want to use a non-sense rom. I have managed to overcome the contacts pictures syncronization but the calendar wont work with non sense roms... :(
[Epic 4G General] ftnguyen1:
So right now i have a HTC Hero on a SWAC (advantage club) account and want to pick up an Epic 4g when it comes out. I emailed the SWAC people and they said they can activate the Epic for me if i buy one at retail cost which i dont mind paying since im not eligible for an upgrade anyways. Since normal employees cant touch SWAC accounts it seems like i cant buy one from a corporate store myself since they will not be able to activate it. Does anyone know if ill have any problems buying the phone on a friend's account and then just switching it over to my account afterwards?
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
It depends on your friends Sprint account and credit standing.

I currently am opening a line on my friends current family plan. Its the 3rd line on her account, so Sprint wants a $100 deposit to open the line. This is on top of the $250 for the phone.

I think if you are getting the phone retail full price off contract, it won't be a problem, but if you buy it on contract you will have to pay cancelation fees if they don't keep the line open.
[Epic 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
You will lose the rebate if transferred within 30 days. If transferred within 30 days the number must be kept. If number is not kept and cancelled, the phone must be returned. If kept past 30 days, you are now in contract.... Only way it will work is if friend allows you to use the upgrade on their personal line and you transfer the phone to your account. If transferred within 30 days, rebate is lost, if after, rebate is still good.
[Epic 4G General] ftnguyen1:
I was actually planning on buying the phone at the full $500 on my friends account, and basically have him activate the Epic on his phone number and deactivate his EVO. Then once we leave, we would call in and reactivate his EVO which im hoping would allow me to activate the Epic on my number.
[Epic 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
If you're going to do that just buy the phone on ebay or amazon or bb or rs full price and activate it on your account - save yourself the headache of activating/deactivating phones for no reason
[Epic 4G General] ftnguyen1:
Thats my backup plan, Sprint's retail price is actually at least $100 bucks cheaper then the other stores ive seen so far though, which is why im considering doing it this way.
[Epic 4G General] entropism:
be VERY careful with this, and consult the employee who has the SWAC under their name. In some areas, he/she can get fired if you put one on your line.

Hello there !

It's my first post, I hope I am in the right section ^^ By the way forgive me for my bad english (I'll do my possible to be understand).

There was a fix for the gallery 3d horizontal mode, which removed the psychedelic rendering. Ok, that solved the Gallery 3d bug, but i think there is something else behind. Why ? Just because the really good player ³ aka Cubed has the same issue when it rotate.

Here's an example (in attachement too) :

Normal mode

Landscape mode

I saw this bug on the first 2.1 Villain and in all other 2.1 roms. I currently have the Villain 10.3 which (as far i know) is on a official 2.1 based.

And, ho yes it was initially working with 1.5 Modaco when i wasnt on a 2.1 rom.

Hope this could maybe help you, my lovely devs who makes my phone awesome !

Have a nice and sunny day !

Can someone post a flashable file for the new CM6 ADW launcher? I am currently running RC2 and dont have the new ADW launcher that just got released. I dont want to update to a nightly so Id love to find a download so I can flash it or install it whatever way possible.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvaughan:
Can't you just download it from the market? Wrong forum also...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungAceAtlanta:
Chances are that cyan would put it in his RC3 release.. but i guess you would have to find someone who ripped the update from they phone and post it here..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dougie2187:
Couldn't you just take the .apk out of the nightly .zip and replace your /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk with it?

I mean, I guess everything might not work, since he does put additional stuff in the Cyan Tweaks area, but in general I would think it should be fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meatgel:
You can download the apk that works with CM6 from here:

http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twilk73:
I have been to that site but I wasnt aware one of those links where the correct download. Which is the correct download for CM6.

Also sorry if this was the wrong forum and Ill download a nightly and see if I can rip it.

Thanks, for the help everyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twilk73:
I unziped a nightly and tried that.. lol WOW! I almost really screwed things up. So I tried installing it overtop its current and that wouldnt work. So I uninstalled ADW using titanium and bamn nothing was working.. kinda. Menue stoped working back kept taking me to odd things like the phone home didnt work search worked but i couldnt get to settings to search for an app to get back to titanium to work. Holding down home worked to get recent places and it just so happened all my recent places where the toolz I needed to get back to where i needed to be. Lol that was a close one.

Currently 1.1.2 is installed now and the only issue is that its not integrated into CM6 RC2. I mean instead of hitting one settings tab and then clicking ADW settings its now hitting menu and you got your settings or your ADW settings. No biggy. The wallpaper force closes sometimes when I tried to change it but its not persistant and can be worked around.

Just google Ubuntu download and burn the iso to a cd. Boot system and find the disk utility in menu system upper left. Don't compound your error by formating your hard drive instead of the SD. Careful!

I have used both and loved both equally. But I want a cleaner and faster ROM, so which is preferable? :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chifteur:
For me OD is faster.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prokicmaffia:
thanks to the best opendesire

opendesire is fast and stable my friends. and the best rom on market thats what i think
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikecsmith:
Have used both and personally find DeFrost is my favourite but it's all subjective in my opinion. Whichever you choose you're going to get a good rom supported by a good dev.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00445:
Maybe it's just me but I feel that there is better support for OD than DeFroST. My questions on OD get answered fast without the need to bump them. While in the DeFroST thread, I have to bump a few times and then I won't get an answer sometimes too.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atomfix:
Went to bed with 59% battery, woke up 9 hours later finding that it's dead. And that's with OpenDesire. Recommend DeFroST atm matey/

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyson:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanrich:
I love both and switch between the two depending on the current release. Both are outstanding ROM's...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fllash:
For those who are experiencing poor battery life in Open Desire, Perhaps there is a process hogging your CPU cycles. Get the app "Android System Information" from the market, go to the Tasks tab, and go menu -> Sort by CPU Usage. "android.process.acore" (there were two of these) was taking up 100%. Once killed, overall usage dropped from 40-ish% to 5%, and battery life was somewhere in the vicinity of 4% lost in 6 hours. I don't know why that process every now and then takes up 100% of my usage -there are threads about it scattered throughout the various forums. When I was using ADW Launcher, the problem was much more common, such that when you added or moved or removed a widget, the problem would arise again. Launcher Pro has given me less problems.

I suppose I'm just saying - see if killing android.process.acore fixes your battery life. (i realise if it does do anything that it may only be a temporary solution.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepakoffline:
i find both OD and DF almost the same. Open Desire feels much original in every sense, where DeFrost does now take things from others like Cynogen. But thats ok as one cant develop all things by himself.

2 things i really really miss in both of them though is,

1) friend stream widget

2) FM Radio

Both are good and it depends on which one you try and wanna keep on ur device. But yes both looks the same, performance wise i find them alike,
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpachuong:
Make a Vote thread then : )
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stueyboy:
Tried both and switch between them a fair amount. At the moment, I prefer Defrost because it deals with activesync better than OD and I use that for work e-mails.

Neither is very good at displaying the correct contact pics in the launcher pro widget to be honest. I also found that OD was force closing the facebook app.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamG:
Defrost is a clone of OD and has been since v2.6, there is no difference other than Defrost having more apps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atomfix:

Maybe because he thinks it is irritating to have yet another zip-kid get undeserved credit if what he says is indeed true? I do think the least he could do when saying something like that about another ROM was presenting a file comparison proving his claim though.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kali-:
All addons/feature/fix found on DeFrost an OpenDesire come from CM6.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7pellc:
@naguz

I don't normally get involved in these petty competitions (personally I'm using cyanogen) however that so called 'zip kid' your talking about was the first Dev to get a decent modded kernel working for our desires. The first Dev to have a semi working Froyo port working for the desire. Additionally he had ROMS and kernels out way before 'adamg' and 'Cyanogen' even started working on the desire. Do your research first mate.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DennisG1:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardsar:
All,

Please respect these ROM developers, and stop the bickering about who gets what from where. I've used both roms, and do feel differences between them.

Surely the last thing you all want to do is p*ss off the developers to the point that they stop releasing ROM's. These type of topics are very subjective, and individuals have to make the choice of what rom is the best for them. Everyone has a different opinion.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Guys stop fighting. Every ROM developer deserves credit for their hard work. The purpose of this thread is to conduct a general survey as to which ROM is preferred, not which ROM is a rip-off of another.

To both adamg and richardtrip, keep up the good work and continue contributing to the Android scene. :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naguz:
Well I did say "if it is true" and said he should back up such a claim with evidence. I made no claim as to wether Adams copy-claims were legit or not. I have not followed the ROM development for Desire here (much to my own surprise) as I have had a soft spot for the FM radio and therefore just used Paul's kitchen.

I do remember the state with the Dream though, and therefore I said that IF he is correct, I can understand him being a bit of an ass about it.

But Oh well, if it is all a rip off of CM6 anyway, we can all go home in peace. :P

Now if only HTC could release the damn source from the latest kernel, maybe we could get the stable version soon. I wonder how they can legally stall it for so long?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardtrip:
Thank you Kali- ,

Maybe one day there won't have to be a DF or OD because CM6 is the way to go :-) Only for now there are some small differences which make it worth it (old a2sd as an example). But maybe we have new leaks at that time and i can move on to Gingerbread.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kali-:
u already have an answer, it's oversaturated on DF and OD ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DennisG1:
so it seems it is a little bit funny...after every new nightly of cm there come a new versi..... well okay :) ... i think those "versus" threads should be closed. they're not good.

Has i have alredy spoke to Adamg-, i consider Defrost an OpenDesire just a Mod of CM6

what i didn't really like is OD and DF changelog, looking on ìt sames you and adamg- have made addons & fix also many DF and OD think that, but in reality 99.9% of it come from CM Dev Team
