So i know this has been asked a bunch but I havent seen an answer yet....I rooted the phone and changed the lockscreen to the slide lock instead of pull down lock however the incoming call lockscreen is still the pull down and i was wondering how to get it to the slide lock....
[Droid X General] sfreemanoh:
Every single time I talk on the phone, my gf (she's the only one I call, everyone else I just text, including my parents) say she can barely hear me if I don't have the phone oriented just perfectly. If I move it like a 1/2 inch further away from my mouth, she says something almost immediately. Has anyone else noticed anything like this? Is there a way to boost the sensitivity, or the mic volume, or something like that? A workaround would be to get a bluetooth earpiece, but I dunno if I want to get one just to use it for like a half hour a day, if that.

Lol... Yeah, if anyone that knows me read #1 they would laugh, apparently I already talk too loud. :P
[Droid X General] maidguitar:
I've gotten this problem as well. One peculiar thing I've noticed is that the phone uses the microphones you wouldn't think it'd use while you talk.

In normal phone conversations, my Droid X uses the microphone on the back - the one next to the speaker. I used to hold the phone in such a way that it'd cover that bit; after I gave the phone a bit of space between it and my hand, my voice has gone through much better.

Similarly, when on speakerphone my Droid X uses the mic that's on top of the phone next to the headphone jack. So instead of leaving my phone right side up on the table, i turn it around so the top faces me. Much better results.

I wonder if there's a way to select which mic to use in what mode. Or perhaps an app to select the microphones is in order?
[Droid X General] inzandity:
Wait...people use this to talk on?!

But yeah...when I do nobody has any problems hearing me. Granted, I put them on speaker 90% of the time.

I did a quick google search and saw that someone mentioned this in the comments on another forum. Maybe a common issue?

It does not like our phones. Has great options but.......it sucks. Everytime I flash it on my phone my recovery goes bad in a cpl days. Never had this problem with RA. Do a search rom manager pops up all over the place with bad recoveries. Stop using it ppl. Im sure ill get flamed for this but oh well. Kinda tired of reading of noobs that fall victim to a .apk that seems very easy to use until it craps out and then your stuck at the airport with a bad recovery and ADB no where in sight. Or even if u had ADB you still have no clue how to fix it!!!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: Sorry for my rudeness, anyways, people should know that it's not the greatest idea to use rom manager with cm5/cm6. It has already been established that it may be a bad idea to use the program with the following roms. Sorry I get really cranky in the mornings, not the best idea to come onto the forum with some old news :|

I have never used it and I agree with him just from all the posts I have seen related too it messing up people's recovery images. Does that make me stupid?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athakur999:
I've used it for a few weeks now with no problems on my MyTouch on 1.6, 2.1, and 2.2 ROMs. Not saying others aren't having legitimate issues, but people in general are much more likely to post negative reports than positive ones.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisgto4:
hahahahaha good one. Not to stupid to use it. the ui is very simple and easy to use. Flash clockwork or flash alternate. What im to stupid to do is figure out how to fix it after it kills recovery. but thank you for your input, I'm sure it will help someone out.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisgto4:
Please lead us retartds through your install procedure, current rom, set-up so we can be as learndededed as you. I have had cm5&6 with ra installed upon initial set up. No swap/ noext1234, stock mt3g spl 2.22.23.02 radio. Nothing special. I even did it with the donut mytouch rom w/root.I only use basic apps, nothing that would interfere with recovery. to me it seems that when u flash a cpl different roms a day is when it hangs up. I can usually get the phone to boot back up, which gives me a chance to get back into rom manager and flash ra recovery back to the phone. the last cpl times I had to wipe cache before it would actually flash RA recovery. so basically if u can get the phone to boot past the splash screen go to rom manager and flash the **** out of ra recovery until it works. First we found out that clockwork didnt like flashing zip's and backups on low batteries 30% and lower. then the always fun recoverly log issue(cant recall the exact error right now) and of course the cant get to recovery issue. I know it's not a widesporead problem but it is a problem that renders phones useless until u can find someone nice enough to help u and not treat u like a retard. Not everyone knows as much about phones as you guys do....congratulations you know all there is about phones. go learn some ****ing human decency, if u have nothing helpful to say then shut up.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arefin:
have been using it without Rom manager and highly disagree with the poster.doing it 'wrong' or without knowing 'how to' can certainly cause problems but that should not be described as the problem of the product. lot of people can not use nuclear power correctly (look at the USA) and now we call describe nuclear power as menace which is lame :/
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisgto4:
hmmmmm. Maybe since its flashing clockwork from inside rom manager is what might be killing it for some of us. tonight I will try just flashing clockwork outside of rom manager and see how that goes. i like clockwork's set up and it is easy to use, just kinda freaks me out when my recovery goes bad.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisgto4:
but at the same time thats why it is a part of rom manager. one click recovery flasher. to make it "easy". i highly doubt you can go into rom manager and incorrectly flash clockwork recovery. its a one click thing
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arefin:
it's also spoken out at many threads at xda that flashing the recovery from within the OS causes issues, so trying to install the recovery from PC or even RA1.7 should be a better option.

I'm considering that you already know the commands for that. better luck! remember, clock work will allow you to flash anything without signing - meaning? you can edit any update.zip to your liking and then forget about all the trouble of signing it before flashing. a simple toggle should do the trick while you are in recovery mode ;) happy flashing.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypysmoker:
It is either a case of your phone, sd card setup/left over files etc..

I use rom manager on every phone I root with no problems since its release. 6 G1's, 3 Fender LE's, 7 Mytouch 1.2 and 4 Evos. Sometimes, it takes couple seconds to show up or go into recovery, but that doesnt mean its gone. Recovery cant just dissapear without something either trying to over write it or it being erased.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisgto4:
Im gonna give it one more try. I dont think I have ever.....

flashed clockwork from rom manager

reboot into recovery from rom manager right then (read some where that on some roms when u reboot to recovery using the regular way it might mess up....not sure about this one).

wipe everything (clockwork wipes more that amon ra)

reflash any rom

in my case... above steps then in this order

flash fireats custom mtd part 1.1

super E

Gapps

overclock update

fireats custom mtd part 1.2

anyone see a issue with what I have done so far??

Ok I will post back when clockwork fails again.....and if not f-in sweet

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
rom manager is not for idiots like yourself. rom manager is a great tool for many different phones. sometimes it doesnt flash a recovery correctly maybe it be poor service to download the recovery, or low memory when flashing it. an advanced user (who its made for) can still flash recovery via fastboot, and have all the helpfulness and easy ui of rom manager and easy access to cm nightlies.

dont knock a dev who works on many different phones, and dont rely on noob application reports and bad reviews. anyone who finds rom manager crap is just a poor android user.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrsg:
i didn't want to get into this pointless discussion, but you have made a ****ty argument for rom mgr, you have confirmed that it doesn't work properly in certain circumstances, which is a good enough reason to not bother with it.

also, why shouldn't we rely on bad reviews? that's the point of a review, to give some idea about what experience to expect.

(i have never used it myself, amon ra recovery is enough for me.)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austriker27:
I agree it is an 'easy' shortcut that is not the best decision.. Like for example I think it killed my phone. I repaired permissions via rom manager, rebooted as it told me to and now my g1 wont boot past the g1 logo. I could install from a backup but the backup is 1+ month old (my error oops!). I am hoping to find a solution... Really dont wanna wipe everything..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
I made a perfectly good argument. Yes it can "mess up", but thats not at the fault of the app. It's at the fault of the phone. There are things that can go wrong that Koush cannot control. It is for ADVANCED users as a quick helpful UI for recovery-based operations. People that don't know what they're doing, or only half-way do shouldn't be using it. However, too many Android users *think* they are advanced enough, yet 5 minutes after using it, post a "PLEASE HELP, PHONE IS BROKEN", because they DON'T know what they're doing.

I'm not saying that all bad reviews are missguied, but I can assure that 90% of them are from noobs that have no idea what they're doing. They rooted their phone because someone told them it was cool, and they have absolutetly no idea whats in their hands and what they can do with it. Let alone, how to properly work it and fix problems. It's easy as pie to point out noobs from those crowds of users, those 3 links in the OP's post are all perfectly examples. People who came to XDA, signed up, never posted anything, then messed up and came crying to the board asking for help (usually in Android Development because people like them, and the OP too, don't how to to post in the correct section).

So for the last time, if you don't know what you're doing on your phone, don't do it. Just because you have root, and an app says "for root users", doesn't mean its for you, which EVERYONE assumes it is. It's piss-poor users like that, that ruin app reviews and the name of Android everywhere.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roalex:
Get a clue , its a program any gimp, including you, can install from the market, it is made in such way ...the fact that it dosent fail to write the recovery in fastboot mode means nothing!

This program shouldnt let the G1 user flesh any rec image. Till that happens it is the DEV's fault. Shouldnt be in the G1 CM's either.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
If you don't know what you're doing, don't touch it. Its your own fault. Anyone who is stupid enough to "mod" their phone without knowledge about it should burn and be raped.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
Hi- Got my phone rooted with Unrevoked3. I have not applied -s off. I have not updated the radio, flashed ROM, or changed kernel- just running stock. I have installed some root only apps and removed City ID, Twitter, and Peep.

So what should I do if the expected OTA update comes through?

Can I apply the update on a rooted phone? I believe from what I have read that I would have to unroot and revert to stock in the box.

Do I want to apply the update?

If I apply the update with -s on will I permanently lose root? (I have too much faith in the droid community and xda-dev to really believe this would be more than a temporary problem)

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larsrya8:
This has nothing to do with Development. Should be in General.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berzerker7:
You could lose root, that's why it's recommend to S-OFF if you want to keep root after an OTA update. If you really don't want to update, let one of the others upgrade before you so they can see whether or not it will break the unrevoked method of rooting.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentoe:
Next time please use the search button. All these questions have been answered millions of times in other threads. Also note the in all capitals at the top of this section is "NO Q&A IN DEVELOPMENT"

If you have NO changes whatsoever except for obtaining root on stock and removing a few apps then yes it will ask if you want to apply OTA, then wipe your root capabilities and if you do then your chances of obtaining root after the 2.2 OTA is applied on s-on is still there, it will be minuscule.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
Very sorry for posting in the wrong forum. Perhaps the moderator can move this post.

I'm probably being to worried about applying the s-off because it is permanent and voids the warranty. I certainly don't want to lose root permanently and maybe the Unrevoked team will add s- on anyway.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentoe:
No problem, just gets a bit annoying when all the new people keep doing it. All we can do is report the thread to be moved.

Anyway, yes it's rumored that the unrevoked team will have S-on soon enough. You shouldn't be too worried about voiding the warranty via the software. If anything actually goes wrong, just "accidently drop it" till it won't turn on :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
I figured the s-on would probably be added soon. I will take your advice and apply the Unrevoked forever. If I remember what I read I think I can just run the updated Unrevoked over my existing setup.

I suppose unless I flash an updated ROM I will receive the OTA request and should just ignore it or, maybe smarter to just update the radio and then flash a custom ROM.

Thanks for your advice......mm
