[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DracoDan:
On August 17 I rooted and S-OFFed my phone in preparation of Froyo (then expected to come Aug 18). As we all know, that update was delayed slightly. When the new version leaked (I'm pretty sure this was the OTA) on I believe August 26, I pulled the trigger and installed. I also did the post upgrade stuff to get my root access back and restored most of my apps using titanium backup.

Everything was working great until last night. Now for some reason my FM radio force quits every time I try to use it. Also, weatherbug is acting funny. When I start my phone it seems to be unable to launch its temperature icon on the top bar until I launch the app manually.

My biggest concern is that I have a bigger underlying problem, maybe due to using the leak? Here is the software info on my phone, hopefully one of you guys can tell me if anything looks wrong here.

Thanks,

Dan

Hi!

I have (had maybe) officail Android 2.1 with sense. Yesterday an OTA update showed up, so I updated the system and the phone is now down.

System doesn't start at all... Only HTC logo shows up, I can't flash any official HTC rom.

Errors:

140: wrong bootloader version, 131: wrong client ID

the only error information from HTC phone is... as I show on picture... very informative and descriptive :)

I've tried 6 offficial update rom's from HTC.

The phone error statement is red error sign...

Graphic, no text :/

I attached a photo with this

All the thing is quite recent, any ideas? :)

Cheers!

What you need to do is download the android recovery system, see my sig (RA-hero-v1.7.0.1 Recovery). Install that and then let us no when you have. This will enable you do do other things and then we can go from there.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow_82:
Hi again!

At the beginning I would like to say thanx for help :)

Ok following "RA-hero-v1.7.0.1 Recovery" thread I've downloaded SDK with ADB.

To be correct with the timeline, I'll tell that this PC already has got HTC drivers coming with HTCSync software. Probably I write too much, but it's better to have too much of information than too less :)

Before the problemm which we are trying to solve here - phone worked fine with windows. Now XP says, that "device hasn't been recognized succesfully and the gear could not work correct. (I don't know english version for that, Polish Windows I have :-) )

Next - ADB doesn't see the phone:

\Android SDK\tools>adb shell reboot bootloader

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

error: device not found

Restarting windows - doesn't help

Trying to list devices in ADB - none

restarting AB daemon - doesn't help

Removing HTC Drivers and HTC sync (it was old version for android v.1.5 and 1.6. Still it worked before disaster with 2.1 )

Rebooting XP

Installing HTC Sync for Android 2.x. This include: HTC BMP USB Driver 1.0.5375 (32Bit), HTC Driver Installer 2.0.7.018

After installation new HTC Sync, XP says that it recognized the phone correctly, but still I have no access to SD Card storage. Only drive letter shows up. Lets take it as progress :)

still yet ADB gives output:

\Android SDK\tools>adb shell reboot bootloader

* daemon not running. starting it now *

* daemon started successfully *

error: device not found

I've tried to puty the same command with FastBoot and HBoot - but - nothing new comes with that...

At this level I think I'm stuck.

knock knock - any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idroid84:
What operating system are you running? Definatly a driver issue.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow_82:
Windows XP SP3 Polish ver.

HTC Drivers as I wrote earlier - latest from htc.com

As for now I'm downloading HTC Sync also for older Androids - 1.5 and 1.6.

I'll try to remove this HTC Sync for And 2.1 with drivers and install that for 1.5 & 1.6.

If You say, it's a drivers issue - maybe there is a mess on my PC, I'll try using another one or two with both HTC Sync versions and give You a reply.

But when the disaster happened I tried to flash Hero with official ROM and I've had only info's like error 131 or 140 - as I mentioned at the beginning.

And it was other PC, with brand new HTC Sync, so the driver problem could be... no the clue...

I'll post when I'll try to install HTC Sync on other PCs.

Cheers!

Paweł
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idroid84:
ah in that case error 131 or 140 is nothing to do with drivers, for error 140 as far as I know the ROM is not compatible. You will need to try find a version that is suitable. try the HTC website for updates.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow_82:
Hmm.. You say that it's not drivers problem?

Well...

I already tried to flash these ROM's listed from XDA Developers:

[ROM] Official HTC Hero RUU ROM + Radio Links

WWE: (World Wide English)

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_1.76.405.1_R3_WWE_release_signed_ NoDriver.exe

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_1.76.405.6_WWE_release_signed_NoD river.exe

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoD river.exe

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.38_WWE_release_signed_No Driver.exe

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.61_WWE_test_signed_NoDri ver.exe

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.66_WWE_test_signed_NoDri ver.exe

I've tried also ROMs from official htc.com website.Europe website and Polish website - still its the same, but when something doesn't want to work...

ROM version 2.73.405.5

All of them gave me errors:

140: wrong bootloader version,

131: wrong client ID.

All of these ROM's weren't able to say which version currently is installed on my HTC Hero...

Total HTC Hero Eclipse :)

I'll try to flash them once again, right now I take my pendrive, I'll go to my friend and let's roll :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow_82:
God damn it - another Q - by the way :)

How I'll be checked to be able to post external links?

Should I ask some moderators?

Or it'll happen just like that in a month or year? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow_82:
ok.

another PC, completetly not known to this HTC Hero.

first windows told me that it doesn't recognize the phone. It's ok. it doesn't have any drivers.

I've installed latest HTC Sync with drivers - the one for Android 1.5 and 1.6, filename:

_HTC Legend_HTC_Sync 2.0.40.exe

Rebooting windows and...

Windows still doesn't recognize the phone

Trying to flash it with one of official ROMs

Yup - error 170 - no connection with phone

adb devices - no devices...

next: uninstalling this HTC Sync

rebooting windows

installing new one for android 2.1

filename: _HTC Wildfire_setup_3.0.5422.exe

rebooting windows

once again windows doesn't recognize the phone

Trying to flash it with official ROM

filename: RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe

Connection error... damn...

ADB:

\HTC SDK\tools>adb devices

* daemon not running. starting it now *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

After some fight with USB I managed to make Windows recognize the phone, a drive letter shows up, but I can't acces data on SDCard.

ADB after restarting it's daemon doesn't see the phone

Another try to flash it with official ROM

ok. there's any progress - RUU App sees the version on the phone

trying to flash the phone

and... error 140 - wrong bootloader ver.

ADB: error: device not found

I'm starting to be confused...

Any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] pzztgotbagz:
All,

Please try this before complaining about battery.

Go to:

Settings then to privacy then do a Factory Data Reset.

You will lose all your user installed apps.

What ive noticed on day 1 Battery showed full charge. After a factory data reset the battery meter dropped to almost empty

full charge overnight and i went all day and night after using pandora, making 3 hours worth of calls, using the web, check checking work and gmail email, sending texts and a few other thing.

With my evo i would have had to charge it after about 6 hours. PLease try the above and post your results.
[Epic 4G General] FoxRacR17:
Nice find dude. I just tried it out on my phone and while it may be a bit preliminary it seems to of fixed my issues. Before I had only been able to charge my phone to 100% TWICE. All the other times it would hit 95-97% and tell me its fully charged and would not go any further, i would turn off my phone and plug it back in and it would charge a little more, but as soon as i unplugged my phone and booted back up it would be at 95% and fall very quickly. This morning it had only been unplugged for 1 hour and 20 minutes after being plugged in all night and it went down to 65% I plugged it back in and let it charge, it was at 95% and still charging when i saw your post and decided WTH and gave it a try.

While it was still plugged in i did a factory reset and it erased everything and when it booted back up it said my phone was at 100% but the charging light was still red. I let it keep charging, even turned it off and it was still charging, it charged for probably another half hour before the light turned blue, i unplugged it and turned it on and it was still at 100% :) I used my phone sending texts and reinstalling all my apps and setting them up and its been probably half an hour and its at 98% as i type this :) So things are looking up :) I never even saw 98% before haha, the two times it DID charge to 100% it literally jumped from 96% straight to 100%, then fell to 95% once unplugged.
[Epic 4G General] houkah:
Just out of curiosity what do you guys use to check your battery percentages? (i'm new to android having come from the iphone 3g)

I've been using Battery Indicator, I really like it.

[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
Hey guys.

I installed the Flash Player Mobile v1.5 sacessfully, and its working perfectly too, but the flash files that its playing are awsomely slow like it cant use the cpu or gpu right.

The question is how can i modify or change the settings to run the swf files smoothly couse i dont believe that this pda with this hardware cant run right even a simple 130kb flash file.

THX anyway.:D
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
no one?! wow u guys r just awsome :rolleyes:
[TG01 Themes and Apps] elder T:
Flash player 1.5 is a old version?

If yes try a newer one.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:
I have exactly this revision an it works OK.

Attached a SWF example (it's fun but a quite sadist): Started at the same time on PC and TG01, they finishes at the same tim as well

http://bit.ly/aWdcwq

Upload your problematic film (or a sample) so we can check it and give you our feed back
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
lol i played it on the tg01 and it laggs.

i use noksers Ultra ProEditiom WP7 ® CE OS 7.0.0 6339 - Build 6339[xx/0x/2010]

and installed andvanced config tool3.2;vicsoft clear temp;htc addicts cleanram;oxios memory and some other applications.

Maybe i must install a driver like to my old blackstone's chainfire??

If i'm missing something please tell me .

Thank u very much.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:
I'm still with the official Toshiba's WM6.5 Spanish version. I'm still doubting about which Rom choose to update my device
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
so stock rom is the best.i see now, thank u.

but my other question is still up : do i need a driver cab for the snapdragon chipset ,or its already cooked into the roms? isnt there a program that shows me the snapdragons driver or something?
[TG01 Themes and Apps] elder T:
The lastest flash player is version 7?

http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
i think thats not a player, more like a plugin for the web browsers. but the flash player mobile is an actual player program that can open an swf file. and thats what i need.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:
My suggestion:

1) Full Backup (SPB backup recommended)

2) Install official Rom

3) Install only Flash Player

4) Try Flash performance (with my video, for instance)

5) Share your impressions

Good luck
[TG01 Themes and Apps] crixalis:
With any 6.5 ROM flash player don`t work.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:

[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:

Watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sSARN5_oZI

As said before: I have Official WM6.5 and Flash Video quality it's good enough for me

Best Regards
[TG01 Themes and Apps] mirolg:
you sure, you use Ultra ProEditiom WP7 ® CE OS 7.0.0 6339 - Build 6339 ???? This ROM isn´t existent, or?
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
i flashed from the toshiba websites latest 6.5 official english rom, and then right away only the 1.5 flash player mobile(i registered it ) and the same as with the other roms... every swf file lags.. i really dont understand.

isnt there another flash file player for winmobile that opens swf files and not a webbrowser plugin?!
[TG01 Themes and Apps] elder T:
Search for `Juggalo_X official Flash lite 3.1 CE-OS 20757`.

This might help you out with your lag.

I am running FFboy 6.5 Manila rom, I dont have any lag what so ever.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
thx

i downloaded it and installed it.

but is this a standalone application, couse i didnt find any exe for it anywhere... how do u open an swf file with it?

thx anyway
[TG01 Themes and Apps] elder T:
just use Internet Explore and open some flash sites and test it.:cool:
[TG01 Themes and Apps] HentaiZ:
yeah i believe u ,that on the webbrowser the site's flash is running greatly, but as i said i want to open the swf files that r on my micro sd with a program like the Flash Player Mobile 1.5 . but the problem is that all of the files that it plays are lagging ,and i cant find a different version of it either. so as i said many times before : I NEED A PLAYER PROGRAM THAT OPENS AND PLAYS THE SWF FILES ON MY DEVICE WITHOUT INTERNET.

[Epic 4G General] GucciPilot:
I would like to have my screen brightness turned all the way down. This is my 2nd epic (1st one's menu soft key wasn't sensitive like the other soft keys) I go into the settings and set it that way as well as in the browser. I've tried having it setup with and without the power saving mode option selected, but no matter what, the screen brightness always changes to a higher setting on its own. I cycle through the power control widget and dim it back to 0 all the time but it doesn't remember the setting. I also notice that in some apps the brightness is raised i.e. market. What am I doing wrong? My bet is Samsung has an annoying glitch that they need to fix ASAP!
[Epic 4G General] RTbar:
I noticed mine does that too. It will randomly be at a higher brightness setting. Also, the lowest brightness is WAY too bright! 0 on the epic is equivalent to 35 on the EVO.
[Epic 4G General] smashpunks:
Maybe when your pulling down the notification bar your sliding across on accident just enough to make it change brightness. Remember the brightness changes in your bar.....
[Epic 4G General] larryccf:
i've got a vibrant but mine's doing same - hasn't done it that often, but does it

i found a small app for screen brightness control that displays the brightness percentage running as part of the icon, - just yesterday it had jumped from 11% to 52% on it's own

have no idea what gremlins are at work here
[Epic 4G General] GucciPilot:
Coming from WM I was not aware of this gesture. I did notice sometimes when pulling the tray down it would do it. I need to read an android for dummies book and see if there's any other hidden jedi mind tricks that can be done.

I compared my brightness at 0 to an iphone4 all the way down, EVO, G1, Hero, BB Bold, and my former WM phones and the epic is way too bright at 0. I wish there was a way to keep the brightness set to the same setting when the screen dims in some apps, that would be ideal.

Good to see I'm not the only one with this issue and definitely getting a screen brightness icon in the notification panel will be very helpful to track samsung's shiesty shenanigans!

P.S.

The screen brightness increased on its own while typing this message from the xda app....
[Epic 4G General] kgold708:
Doesn't the epic have an ambient light sensor for screen britness control?
[Epic 4G General] GucciPilot:
Yes but sometimes that's too bright, I'd rather have it set all the way down and stay down and raise it as needed on my own.
[Epic 4G General] lithid-cm:
This is when a custom rom will be handy... no other way to get around it I don't think. I use adw and have my swipe down gesture for notification bar. That way I never have to reach all the way up.
[Epic 4G General] erickh:
Brightness control

There is a setting under Sound and Display > Display Settings, called Power Saving Mode. I disabled this along with the automatic brightness control and my screen brightness hasn't changed since. Not sure if this is your issue but couldn't hurt to try.......
[Epic 4G General] Fixter:
He did say he have used this setting before.
[Epic 4G General] Firon:
There's the power saving mode AND there's also the automatic brightness control. Two different settings. I turned both off and I haven't really seen the brightness change since.

Incidentally, disabling the automatic brightness control (in the brightness menu) has greatly improved my battery life.
[Epic 4G General] Fixter:
Did you read the first post? It said he did BOTH.
[Epic 4G General] GucciPilot:
Fixter, you beat me to it.... We need to find a way to get the phone to stay dim like when the XDA app is searching/refreshing. This would be ideal if that would be the baseline for 0% brightness. I hate how the Eclair browser's brightness 0% is one tick higher than using quick settings to turn the brightness down. Too bad I don't know how to develop, as this would be the first thing I would fix!
[Epic 4G General] Stresa:
I think that it's easy to accidentally change the screen brightness when pulling down the notification bar.

Once I realized that...I haven't had any problem keeping my Vibrant at minimum brightness.

K, so my day came. Gave up the evolution : -) for the Epic. I am for the overall part happy and yet still excited as I find more and more. One thing though, I tested quadrant and received a 914 then a 891 and I was like wtf? I guess this is cause of the lack of froyo?

I gather this must be, cause if you compare true and live performance vs the score, I'm zooming! I don't see where in God's name I could be running as sluggish as 891!

[Epic 4G General] infamousjax:
Ya gotta remember though, when the Evo had 2.1, it scored around 450 or 500 on Quadrant... so the Epic scoring double that is pretty damn good. The JIT from Froyo seems to boost up all the benchmarking speeds dramatically.
[Epic 4G General] PlankLongBeard:
This is true. I am VERY happy for the most part. I am enjoying this screen so much even minus the .3 on the screen. The keyboard addition is so nice, I got so used to using virtual I forgot what pressing keys actually felt like, how acurrate it can be. Go to install v27 of gimpstas htc mod.

Oh and one more annoying thing, the damn camera 15% thing is SUPER whack!
