[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ednote:
I have a story to tell you all, and i would appreciate any help / advice that you could give me. (specially the forum members that work at sprint).

About 2 months ago, my EVO screen died. It went completely blank. If i would reboot the phone it would work for seconds, and then it would go back to black. So (since i'm always running custom roms - it's almost an addiction to be trying out a rom a week) I managed to plug it to my PC, restored HTC's stock rom; and took it to the closest service center. Within minutes, the tech (right infront of me) replaced the screen, didnt event payed much attention to the software and handed the phone back to me working and ready.

PERFECT.. a couple of days later, i realized that my GPS was not working. It would get stuck in waiting for GPS (in the navigation app) and then in maps. sometimes it would give me my location precise to 100 feet, or sometimes precise to 3000 feet, and place me in the general area, but not on the road. I figured; they probably messed up the GPS antenna, or something.

BUT, before i could take it back; my screen died again. BUT this time, it died all the way. I could not see a thing, so i took the phone as it was to sprint, and told them about both problems.

They replaced the screen again; but gave me a handwritten paper, that the GPS was not working cause i was running "custom software".

So now, i have my EVO that i love; but with non working GPS. My question is: Does sprint keep a record of what they found on that service call, and if i flash it to stock, will they not support the GPS problem? OR, do i maybe use some of the tutorials on ifixit.com and take it apart, to see if maybe i can see the problem.. OR, last option, do i take the blue pill, call azurion, and pay the deductible for a new EVO?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ED!

i do not work for sprint but i do know they can put the information onto you account. I have had them place service information about repairs on the account. Whether this tech did or not is another question. Unless you can find someone to look it up and tell you you wont know. my opinion restore back to stock and then try if they say you had custom software or they cant then go the azurion route
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedoke:
Recently tried to flash from JF6 to JH3 and failed. It's now stuck at the phone ! computer screen.

Here's what I've tried so far starting with all the pull sd,sim,batt out and put battery back in:

1. Hold both vol up and down, then plug in usb.

2. Hold both vol up and down, then plug in usb, and then hold power. Let it flash on and off until I get to the 2nd blank screen, then release power.

3. Hold vol up and power, then plug in usb. Let it flash on and off until 2nd blank screen, then release power.

Holding down and power doesn't make the phone!computer flash at all.

I'm really at a loss now. No idea how to get back into download mode... I wasn't able to use the key combos to do it before; just used adb.

Any tips? Help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tysj:
I've always done after turning off the phone:

1. Plug in USB

2. Hold volume up + down

3. Press and hold power until it turns off for second time then let go (although it's worked for me on the first time it goes off)

Worked every single time for me.

Have you tied to Flash it with Odin back to stock? Always flash back to stock before flashing. Every thread starts with the same instructions, flash back to stock first. Not to kick you when you're down.

I'd flash back to stock with Odin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tytdfn:
He wouldn't be able to flash without getting into download mode now would he?

op: Make sure that odin is open and ready on your computer. if that doesn't work then i hate to say it but...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedoke:
Looks like I've got an expensive paperweight? Luckily for me I got it yesterday...

Stupidly enough though, I probably should have returned it in the first place. It wasn't working quite right... I've never seen a phone not respond to button combos or have problems connecting to a computer via USB and I've owned my share of Samsungs. Each boot into their own recovery mode just fine via buttons... guess I won the lottery?

If anyone has some ridiculously convoluted way to get into download mode, I'd be glad to try it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mongstradamus:
when i flashed to jh3, i found doing the adb reboot download the easiest way to get into download, even when i messed up my phone and it would boot to galaxy s screen and it would get stuck. Found plugging it in via usb and then running the adb command
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedoke:
Ah... I see. Well, considering I can't get it to recognize it or anything... it's pretty much fubar. I tried my sister's captivate and it boots into download mode just fine with both vol + plug in usb.. so I assume I just had a defective unit that became more defective.

Thanks for the help all, and let's just have this be a lesson to anybody who wants to know, if you follow the instructions on the odin thread and you can't get in, either you're doing something wrong or the phone is wrong...

And adb never hurt anybody.

Thanks again everybody.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianwood:
I just exchanged a Captivate for shutting down by itself, got one that can't three button reboot, accidentally bricked it and couldn't recover it. Exchanged it for yet another one that also can't three button reboot. Uggh!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
So, I've been playing with the LCD density settings on my phone and have found that 180 is great on the Evo (some prefer 200, but general consensus is that 180 to 200 is best). My only issue is this... I'm using Fancy Widget on my home screen and now it looks like a$$. Has anyone come up with a fix for this, or an alternative (but similar) widget that looks decent?

Thanks,

hi, i have a samsung omnia i900 and im looking for a samsung app. Is the samsung today, but the omnia 2 version. Anyone one know any compatible version or any port to install this samsung today on my i900??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aiiro:
As far as I know, ROMs are device-specific, so You just can't flash a random device with random ROM. You need a ROM that's specifically cooked for that specific device.

That being said, I am not familiar with Haret. And I could be wrong :)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cre8er:
Bump again

These Chinese GPS units are everywhere and they are cheap as hell. Would buy one today if we could get Andriod running on them. The WinCE Roms are readily available on GPSPassion Forum and

austech.info/gps/40751-chinese-gps-firmware-thread.html

They aren't the experts on the Windows platform that those on this site are. Seems like it should be simple for those that know?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mdghost:
I'm looking for the solution too. I think that topic will grow. I will try today some tricks on my china device, and try to report effects.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sergani:
Hello,

Any thoughts on this?

I too would like to see Android on my "generic" Chinese HU :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Deleted member 1890170:
Can't count how many threads started to this topic here at XDA. If you'ld have read them all carefully you'ld have noticed that it's not possible to replace WinCE by Android. All you could try is to get a dual-boot solution up and running. And even this I failed to do so, because couldn't find an Android version that matches the techn. specs of an WinCE ( navigation ) device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sergani:
True, Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] naivri:
Hate to necro-bump, but I bought one of these chinese gps units.

There is an android icon which boots what I can only guess is an android emulator within WinCE 6.

This gives full android functionality running in parallel with the wince interface. In fact, the units GPS runs on the android emulated part (iGo)

I can extract files somehow and post for you guys if someone tells me how (know nothing about wince)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] starfox5194:
there should be some way of putting windows explorer for wince on your sd card and launching it. From there perhaps you could copy the android launch app onto the sd card?

I haven't ever tried importing the HTC framework jars into an Eclipse project but who knows, maybe it works.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |flyte|:
Where are these jars found?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beidl:
I don't want to offend you but do you even know how to program?

It's pretty hard to write apps with an undocumented API...

The framework files can be found in /system/framework on the phone, as all framework files.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |flyte|:
Yes I can program - no offense taken. The original question was about the availability of those widgets publicly. Now that you told me that the API is undocumented, perhaps I will reconsider.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beidl:
Well of course the API is undocumented, it's closed source.

I'm not even sure importing the jar files into an Eclipse project would help (Eclipse couldn't handle the classes.dex file inside)

There is an excellent implementation by the XBMC devs on their xbmc remote android app. (GPL)

Hello, I have a rooted Nexus one I just got. I want to flash it back to the latest stock rom available. Please help.

Thank you very much in advance.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
1) Read Nexus One Wiki, Tutorials.

2) The ROM you have currently is much better than stock.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gjvah:
um, thanks. It keeps freezing when switching from H to 3g and 2g... It's very annoying. I read that the stock rom has no such issues.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Strange. These issues aren't normal. Before you return to stock, try reflashing the latest Enomther's ROM (thread in Development section for downloading) and wiping data, cache & Dalvik-cache.

In case you still want to return to stock - there is "Restore your Nexus" guide in Wiki.

Im downloading the rom, right clicking it, then zipping. I then used adb to push the rom onto my sdcard. I do the wipe but when i flash my rom it tells me.....

E:No Signature (1444)

E: No verification

Any ideas? Im also using a mac if that makes a difference
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hungry Man:
If you download the rom you don't need to zip or unzip it. Just put it straight on the SD.

You're removing the "signature" that emulates HTC's rom.

any suggestions please...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dewimagica:
Just install any rom that have all these files and then using registry fix upgrade to the latest DDJG4 ROM which is far more better and stable..

am using the same ... after changing a lot of rom .. its the best i found for indian galaxies.. need more help .. do write dowm.

U can also directly install DDJG4 through ODIN.. it has all the files .... i never needed modem or csc file only pda and pit did the upgrade.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harshad_kp:
i get this error if i try to directly update DDJG4...

update media, please wait...

E:can't mount /dev/block/st110 (invalid argument)now

E:copy_dbdata_media:can't mount DBDATA:copy default media content failed.

ne proper way to be followed to flash the phone...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] somberi:
Did you enable repartition checkbox while flashing via odin and did you use the 512.pit file? If I 'm not wrong ddjg4 is a single tar which has the pda, modem and csc. Select pda in odin and point to the tar file.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harshad_kp:
i enabled repartition but still getin the same error.... do i have to format my phone b4 doin it.. m using XXJPC firmware currently and want to move back to the official one... please help...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dewimagica:
JPC is a real pain ... has lot of bugs .. also it changes the product code to KOR after reading a lot i managed to get back my product code to INU ....

Try doing a factory reset and then flashing with ODIN with repartition on .... or use the registry hack method and upgrade to DDJG4 via kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] devabhishek:
first format ur internal sd card and then ur device and then try the method below

the rar file ddjg4 contains 2 files 1)add_odd and 2) dll file. , add_odd .. is a tar file just ignore the dll file...

1) open odin , tick the repartition ..

2) select the 512.pit file

3) select the add_odd as pda

4)remove the sim and the sd card

5) put the battery and the back cover

6) put ur device in the download mode

7) connect device to computer (using data cable)

8) click start

and i think you should be back to ddjg4

[Vibrant General] leechdweler:
So I have had my vibrant for about a month or so and for that past couple

weeks it has been nothing but headaches.

Issues I'm having:

Freezing up: freezes up no matter what im doing.whether I'm playing a game, surfing the net or on a phone call.

GPS: so I have tried all GPS walkthriugh to make it work and nothing helps. I can't even get a satellite to lock in. So I have never been able to use it.

Shuts Its self off: device shuts Its self off almost on a daily basis. I tried removing the battery but doesent help the issue. Allthough I do have to remove the battery reguardless as my phone freezes up so bad that the only way to make it work or "unfreeze" is to remove battery.

Reception: what reception? LOL. Phone is constantly loosing signal therefore calls end abruptly. Happens on a daily basis.

So with all these issues I have contacted T-Mobile and I will be receiving a replacement. Man! I really hope not to have these issues with replacement.

I figure I'll just keep replacing phones untilled I end up with a good one.
[Vibrant General] The K-Zoo Kid:
The replacement should be good...
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
did you mess with anything or has it been messing up with stock settings?

sounds like a bad phone
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
Also how often do you reboot your phone? did you ever take ou the battery and then press the power? This completley drains juice out of the phone, let it sit for a spell then plug it back in.
[Vibrant General] DaSmittyman:
Go for the replacement, my GPS and phone itself works just fine. GPS works better than my G1, my Vibrant locks in 15 seconds barring no serious obstructions. My phone is always at 2 or less bars but Never and i mean Never have problems calling or texting. Go for the replacement and try it.
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
I had a few hiccups before but mine works perfectly fine now. Just get yours replaced. Simple fix
[Vibrant General] Chief Geek:
Mine had some lag issues but after rooting and performing "one click lag fix" (app in market) I have been nothing but overjoyed with my phone. I also use setcpu to extend my battery life and up my performance. Hope the new handset works better for you.
[Vibrant General] yespinosa:
I had some reception issues I called Tmo and they reset the IMEI on their network no more problems after rooting and lag fix it's almost too fast sometimes I turn it on just to see how fast it is then put down in awe.
[Vibrant General] leechdweler:
My phone is completely stock. I have no idea how to overclock and other things mentioned on this site. So I pretty much just stick with stock :D .

I would think that the replacement would be rush delivery maybe over night or something but they gave me an option for either mailing it "ground" that would take 5 to 7 business days at no charge or over night it, that would take 1 to 2 days for $19.99.

That is F**uCk*d up. It is not my fault that the device is crap. It is absolutely ridicules that I am given an option for a device that might be returned as well.

I went with ground since I obviously did not want or would not pay for shipping fee's.

As I'm typing this I am getting more and more angry at the shipping fee's and I am definitely calling tmobile back to argue this :mad: .
[Vibrant General] jphilpot:
they will waive the shipping if you MAKE THEM

They waived my 3 days shipping on my cliq. But it was the second one so i bet that is why..
[Vibrant General] smashpunks:
My phones flawless. GPS even works pretty good. Must be the phone or something your doing wrong. Cause mines awesome never freezes or lags
[Vibrant General] dalepa:
If I turn my gps on, it's just a matter of time before mine also locks up and a battery removal is required.

Where the HECK is froyo? It's the 9th already and I've also had enough I use gps all the time, but now I dare to turn it on.

Ive installed the ext2 lag fix and my phone is 2x faster and my battery is also 2x longer, so hopefully froyo will fix the GPS
[Vibrant General] Apexsilverevo:
Call and talk to the customer loyalty dept and explain your situation. I had my replacement sent express for free and they took another 100 off the phone oh and they dropped my bill 15 bucks a month lol. So far my 2nd one is performing really well... GPS and all. Only reason I needed a replacement was cause I pattern locked myself out of my 1st one. Root and 1 click lag fix your new one... It works wonders! I scored 2315 in quandrant compared to stock @ 8XX... And I can see the difference!
