Your phone will inform you that an update is available, as soon as it is available. You'll need an internet connection available on your phone so that it can check for updates and download them.
[Wildfire General] nimrodg13:
ummmm i wonder... (since i've about 0 experience in android phones)

when froyo will be released.. will i be able to just... connect with wi-fi and check for updates? Oo

and.. if my phone is rooted... will be unable to get the update ota?

[Wildfire General] rottunix:
Hi,

I know about the phone will inform me. But does anybody knows a day?

I was checking for update but nothing :-(

[Wildfire General] Frank C:
Understood it depends country,operator and even when announced than can take some days till it hits yourphone. In China/HK they start selling with Froyo standard.....

We need to be patient....:)
[Wildfire General] MartinEve:
Virgin media UK said early September.

Once we get our hands on an ota version, custom froyo ROMs become much easier to make.
[Wildfire General] cioconebunu:
No more news about froyo update?

Okay I've used Odin3 to flash my captivate back to stock and have used ROM Manager to flash the vanilla vibrant rom to my phone as well. Can either method be used? What determines which method to use? I'm completely new to flashing and I'm not sure what files mean what and how to flash them. I've looked for basic guides with not much help. Thanks.

[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
Be careful with the Vanilla Rom and ask questions you have about it and the different flashing methods on that thread, I am not sure if all of the bugs are out of that ROM yet. I have been watching the thread and I think there are still some with a few minor problems.

Odin is mostyly used for flashing back to original out of box state. A lot of the other ROMS can be put into your internal "root" sd of your phone and then you can use ROM Manager, from the market, to install. Read the threads thoroughly and they are helpful. If you have questions ask, you will get the help you need.

i was wondering if the scrolling on the galaxy S with the bouncing effect is availabe in the browser and all other applications or is it just for lists?

Thank you.

Switching from Nexus one To Galaxy S soon :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamtheater39:
the browser doesnt bounce for sure ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LevitateJay:
Its implemented over the normal android list which means everywhere on the phone where a normal android list is implemented there will be a bounce back effect. So basically every application with a scrolling list will bounce unless they wrote their own one.

Hello I need help to flash back to stock kernel using odin. I never experience using odin so Iam afraid I might brick my captivate. please help with instruction. I already have the stock kernel .tar file. thanks
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
If you go to the Odin one click thread, you don't need any other instruction. That already has all the JF6 kernels included to flash back to stock. Download that, follow those directions as they are all you need.
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
I have used Odin One Click many times. Read that thread carefully, learn from mistakes of others. Be sure to download and install the drivers from the OP on that thread, follow all of the steps in proper order and you shouldn't have a problem. Are you using I9000 kernal? If so I am not sure how it will work.
[Captivate General] zolezten:
i try using the one click odin but still not work. i think my kernel is unhelpful one and i believe it use to overclock the cpu to 1.2. it say chshrcat@alice #48 in my phone.

another question is if I have a custom kernel am I still able to update to froyo when it come out?
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
How did it not work??? If you followed the thread step by step it will work and flash you back to stock. What did the phone do when you tried using Odin.
[Captivate General] zolezten:
the phone is back to stock but the kernel is still not a stock kernel
[Captivate General] hitteam:
I have the same problem too, anyone know how to reset or restore that Kernel name back to the stock one? Thanks
[Captivate General] TheSopranos16:
Still no answer to this? Like others, I have the stock Kernal .tar file but I don't know what settings to use in ODIN to flash...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BRUTAL BROCK:
Hope I dont get flamed for this one haha, but yeah, just like the title says. I'm not new to the flashing/rooting scene, I owned a D1 and currently a X, but I'm working on my friends EVO. He was upgraded to Froyo, so I downgraded him, rooted him, full NAND access. That was new to me, the NAND access. But I tried installing a rom (CM6), got an error. Only thing I can think of is I didn't perform a full wipe, because well i'm a little confused what is considered a full wipe for the EVO.

I use CWR for all my stuff, so I did the same with his. The dalvik cache and battery stat is new to me also, what are they and where are they located exactly within recovery? Also, some people posted that you should wipe the EXT, which is the sdcard, right? Can't risk the sd card, I could always back it up, but limited time on my hands.

So just for reference sake, can someone give me the exact details of a full wipe for the EVO (within CWR). Exact steps please. :)

Thanks for your time.

Also, how can you tell if you don't have full NAND access? Failure of installing a rom, I presume? lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
Going into hboot. Power + volume down when phone is turned off and hold till hboot pops up. Look on top and should say s-off. If so you are fully rooted and nand unlocked. If it says s-on security is still on and need to unlock still..

You should do delvik and cache wipe. Cwr delvik wipe doesn't work and advise get ra recovery in the market. Use Rom manager and flash clockwork on top of the list in program. Then scroll down and click flash other recovery. This will change Cwr to ra recovery.

So anyways you do delvik wipe and cache wipe. Then do a factory reset. Then go to install zip. And find cm6. Should work. Some people downgraded their hboot version to get to work but I didn't have to and did the downgrade for root also. But I did downgrade anyways after cm6 install. Supposedly it has more options?

When you go into recovery go through all the options and check where everything is. Takes 1 or to flashes to naturally know where everything is. Pretty simple.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BRUTAL BROCK:
Thank you very much. Amons worked perfect.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
You don't need to wipe the ext on SD card unless you partioned your card to do apps to SD. So.don't worry about that. Did you get the Rom working?
[Streak 5 General] jnovello:
Has anyone noticed that just on the home screen if you try to move the icons they go right back. after a good amount of trying I deleted some and finally got it kind of in a way I like. This is on the official 2.1 O2.
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
I thought the icons were just more difficult to move; but i hadn' seen any other posts so i thought it was just me :rolleyes:

Because there's a larger space now between the icons, you have to move them further an order to register any movement.
[Streak 5 General] jnovello:
I've tried moving one across the screen and it goes right back. I actually find that moving them just one space at a time works best.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novarider:
First off let me say I'm new to root. I rooted my evo last night by following the 2.2 root video guide. Now I'm looking for a rom and kernal that's right for me so please be patient with a noob.

Can someone explain to me (in noob terms please) how to install a rom and kernal. If there is a video guide that would be great. I assume all roms will come with the same files so once I learn how to do it I should be set.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
Please use the search tool. Most roms in the development forum say how to also.

And check the sticky in the same forum.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
********IMPORTANT*********

PEOPLE USING AMONRA RECOVERY THE ROM AND KERNEL MUST BE ON THE ROOT OF YOUR SD CARD. ONLY ON CLOCKWORK RECOVERY CAN YOU SCAN THROUGH FOLDERS TO FIND YOUR ROM/KERNEL. SOME PEOPLE SWITCH RECOVERYS WITHOUT REALIZING SO TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE I SUGGEST PUTTING ALL ROMS/KERNELS ON THE ROOT OF YOUR SD CARD. ALSO, WHILE ON AMONRA RECOVERY TO GO BACK A MENU/SCREEN YOU MUST PRESS VOLUME DOWN AND VOLUME UP AT THE SAME TIME.

1.) To install a new ROM you first have to download the said ROM. (Obviously.) Second of all, you have to find the kernel you want to use. Most ROMs come with kernels but you can still download the kernel of your choice.

2.) Once you have the ROM and kernel of your choice, go into recovery mode by powering off your phone, turn it ON WHILE HOLDING the VOLUME DOWN button, do not let go of the volume down button until you're at the boot screen. Select "Recovery" by pressing the VOLUME DOWN button and selecting it by pressing POWER.

3.) You're now in recovery mode. Make a NANDROID backup (varies on how to do it depending on which recovery you're using) if you're on Clockword Recovery scroll down until you see something saying "nandroid" when there select it with POWER, then select the option that says "Backup". (Not sure how AmonRAs recovery works exactly.)

4.) Wipe data/factory reset twice, wipe CACHE twice, wipe Dalvik-cache twice. (Dalvik-cache is located in "advanced" in the main recovery screen.)

5.) Choose "install zip from sd card" then "choose zip from sd card", press up once and it'll bring you to the bottom of the list and you should see your ROM, select it, then install it. Once done installing, go back and reboot your phone, it should be all done now. IF, IF, IF, you have another kernel, after installing your ROM, re-wipe CACHE and DALVIK-CACHE, THEN install the kernel.

You're all set.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novarider:
Ok simple enough. Thank you for the info. Can I download the rom directly to my phone from this site or do I need to download it on my computer and move it to my sdcard?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
You can download it from your phone, but make sure it's on the ROOT of your sd card. I prefer downloading it from my PC, then putting it on my sd card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novarider:
So you mean make sure its on the sd card itself and not in a file like downloads right? Also can I delete the PC36IMG file so it doesn't do that update check every time I go into bootloader?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
Yes, make sure it's not in a folder like "downloads". And yes you can ditch the PC36img.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novarider:
Thanks you were very helpful
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryohei47:
why cant ROMs be in a folder? i have flashed a dozen ROMs that are all in a folder.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
They can be, I was just saying my preferable choice. Sorry if this has confused anyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
Depends what recovery you are using. Ra recovery has to be in the root folder of the SD card. Cwr you can actually go through folders and search for the zip. So it wouldn't matter where you out it on SD card for clockwork but If ra recovery and its in a folder in SD card you won't see it and can't search through folders for it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
Depends on what recovery. This is going to confuse people who use ra recovery and can't ever see their flash zips
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Systemfraud:
Yeah it just occurred to me now. I'll edit my post.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyzidek:
No problem :) just trying to help out.. I used Cwr then found out the delvik wipe didn't work. I had my SD card organized. Had my roms and kernels in a folder. Switched to ra recovery and couldn't find them. Realized then it had to be in root folder. Thought somehow I lost them during the process. I have a backup on my pc also just in case.

hey guys.

i'm one of those users who has had to sacrifice our Evos to MetroPCS's 1x network...

while modifying my phone I came across a lot of good stuff, but I always end up modifying things even more...so this is what i came up with using a splash I found somewhere here (sorry I don't have credit to the original author of the EYE splash).

i enlarged the eye (removing the empty side spaces), and added the metropcs and htc logos. my personal one looks a little different as I have the HTC logo on the left and my name on the right...but to make it universal i think this works too :-)

and the splash link:

[HD2 General] me:
Hello,

I'm not sure what is the best forum for this question, but I'll try here. I have the T-Mobile USA HTC HD2 (latest stock ROM), but I'm sure this would be applicable to all HD2s.

In fact it would be applicable probably to any phones using the HTC Sense UI, which I believe is used on many phones, both WM and Android. (And that is related to something called Manila, I don't exactly understand the relationship of the two.) In any case, I don't see a forum specifically devoted to Sense or Manila (let me know if there is one), so I'll put it in the HD2 forum.

I should mention that I use Co0kie's Home Tab, and CHT Editor, in case that is relevant.

It is a minor problem, but it is bugging me, since I can't figure it out.

I changed the icon for an app shortcut, using the icon changer app CSMI, to an icon I from one of several icon sets I downloaded here at XDA.

It worked. Both in the start menu, and in the Quick Link, I saw the new icon.

Later though, I tried to change the icon for that app to a different one from those collections, also using CSMI. Seemed to work. The Start Menu now shows the icon that I just changed to.

But the Quick Link on my home screen still shows the first icon I changed to, not the recent change.

I deleted the Quick Link, and re-created it, still the first icon, not the new one. I rebooted the phone, still the first icon I had set with CSMI, not the new one. (Again though, the new one shows in the Start Menu, but the Quick Link always shows the first one.)

Next, I even moved the icon file of the first icon (the one that sticks on the QL) to a different location, thinking the system won't find it, and perhaps use the new one I set.

Even after rebooting again, deleting the Quick Link and recreating it, it sticks with the old (first one set with CSMI) icon, which now is not even in its original location, while the Start Menu still shows the new one.

What is going on???? Very strange behavior. This has vexed me for hours now. (I really shouldn't be wasting my time on it, but I'm determined to figure it out.)

Does Sense (Manila) have its own Icon cache somewhere (for use in Quick Links), which somehow is very stubborn in sticking with the previous icon for that app in its Quick Links, and not reading the new one?

If so, is there a way to reset it, rebuild it, so it will see the current Start Menu icons?

Thank you very much in advance for your help.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
I know that jwmd icon changer has a sense icon cache clearance option. I'm not sure about the app you are using.
[HD2 General] Neo XL:
Go with file explorer or Total Commander on your HD2 to Application Data/ HTC/ ProgLauncher and delete the bmg file of your program. After a restart of the HD2 you will have got the new pic.

Also you can delete all files inside this folder and refresh all pictures. Don´t worry...nothing will be deleted, the folder reloads the actual designs of your program starters after reset.
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I would advise switching to jwmd icon changer, then you can clear the ca cache from within the app as soon as you change the icons....
[HD2 General] me:
This IS the solution.

Thank you.

Looking for a case that people seem very pleased with. I bought some cheapo that looks identical to every other case on eBay and it's poorly made. The bottom piece looks like it'll scratch the battery cover and it is very hard to open the phone with the case on. Luckily I didn't scratch the chrome or the black plastic frame on the screen half.

What kind of cases are people using?
[Epic 4G Accessories] ImSoHungry:
i have the platinum plus case from best buy. It is a hard clip on case made by Seidio and rebranded for best buy. It is the same exact thing except it cost $5 more then the official Seidio but it comes with a face in belt clip. I like it a lot, dosnt rub, and fits perfectly.
[Epic 4G Accessories] nmezib:
I'm currently using the black plastic case that I bought at the Sprint Store. It's 20 bucks, yeah a bit more than other cases you can find on the Internet, but you don't want to take chances now, do you?

The plastic is very soft-touch, with a grippy rubber back with square texture, feels very solid and fits the phone like a glove.

That's what I'm using, and I'm very impressed with it.

I had the Seidio Innocase for my Pre, and it only lasted about 4-5 months. The problem was the tiny plastic tabs that attached the pieces to the parts of the Pre. I'm concerned about the same problem with the Innocase for the Epic, as it's also a slider. Would someone be kind enough to post a close-up of the "attachment mechanism" for the Innocase on the Epic?

Thanks!

is there an app or way to read the info from a nandroid backup to know which rom and kernel its using without flashing it first.

i have several, and have long forgotten which rom/kernel they were.

so i would like to be able to load them in some program and see what they are.

can this be done?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpuffin:
just back up existing one rename it to something

then restore the others to check them and rename/delete them

then when done nandroid back to current one

there isn't really a way to check them without doing that
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chazglenn3:
Same here. After I make the nandroid backup, I rename it to whatever ROM it is.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
yeah well i did that a few times then got away from it.

and now am stuck with some backups i would rather not flash,, then rename, then flash back to what i was on.

the android emulator might, i just dont know how to load them, guess i will maybe have to check with one of the dev's.

and just to clarify what these guys are saying, for those who don't know... they are renaming the folder that the backup files are in. //sdcard/nandroid/xxxxxxxx/ gets renamed to //sdcard/nandroid/9.4.10_stock_root_2.2/ or whatever your rom is called.

you do not, and never should rename the files in the backup folder.
