[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karteek_4:
Hi guys.. I am new to the community. I have got a HTC desire and I wanna root it but I dont understand the whole root and modding stuff. So can someone pls explain it to me? Like whats the difference between rooting/ modding/ gold card? So to do some thing wat should I do first??

Step1--Goldcard?

Step2--Root??

Step3--Mod??

I read through the tutorial but there was too much info I dint understand. So can someone temme wat you did first or the steps you followed while rooting or modding your Desire? And which mod is good?? Thanks for helping:(

Edit- I have the Froyo OTA update
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
First off, why do you wanna root it?

Secondly, at this second, you can't root your phone due to the HBOOT. Once unrEVOked is back up this will sort it out. There is a way of downgrading your Desire to a lower HBOOT that can be rooted but if you're a n00b then it's probably best to either leave it or read a LOT until you're confident enough to try it.

Thirdly, a Gold card is needed if you want to flash a ROM other than the one that came with your Desire. E.g. I've got a SIM free Desire so I can only install official ROMs with an x.xx.405.x build number. If, for some stupid reason, I wanted to flash an operator specific ROM I'd need to use a Gold card. To check what you've got go to Settings>About phone>Software information

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wenck:
Hi

My Desire is rooted with unrevoked. Can I somehow backup my stock rom? I did nandroid backup and titanium but that is another story. I want to backup my stock rom because of warranty. On shiped-roms there isn't my RUU available. Also how do I know that RUU is for SLCD?

This is my version : SLCD

baseband version : 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

kernel version : 2.6.32.15-gf5a401c htc-kernel@and18-2#1

build number : 2.29.404.2 CL263770
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I'm guessing you made a typo and you're on 2.29.405.2?

If so, just download the RUU for that version and you're sorted

http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe

OR (if not working)

I do not understand too good this. In menu-settings-about phone-software information is next :

That doesnt match with my data in previous post. Is this because I rooted my phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
No, it means you made a mistake in your previous post ;)

I have a very ambitious idea for android that could potentially be worth a lot of money. However, I am not familiar with android and will have to spend some time creating apps and learning the sourse.

What are some good tools/sources to learn about android development? Is Android Development for Dummies a good learning tool?

Also how do I apply for the app developer program from google?

[Captivate General] s.m.knipe:
Occassionally lately I have been receiving texts that are labelled "browser message" and contain a long string of numbers and letters as the body. Here is an example of the latest one in its entirety:

"010606ae8d01c9b4840105030045c6080c03622e77617070757368008703776170636c69636b2f2f6d612f333136313731372f363333373535393434000103415426542046726565205469703a20596f752063616e20636865636b20796f757220766f69636520706c616e206d696e757465732075736564202620736d73206d657373616765732073656e742077697468204d79204163636f756e742e20436c69636b204f7468657220746f207472792e20546f20656e6420546970732073656e642073746f7020746f2036383431000101"

Is this trying to remotely activate something or something? My Captivate is fully stock, all downloads from the market and are popular well-rated apps, no visitation of porn sites (that I know of) or other questionable websites, or even "blank links" that I have noticed. This is really bugging me that there is some sort of malware on my phone, although I don't see how there could be. If anyone on here is wiser than I am on these issues, could they please let me know what they heck these are, should I be worried, and what I can do...

Thanks to anyone who can advise me...

[Captivate General] malvegil:
It appears to be a text message from AT&T about your plan minutes used. At least a quick conversion from hex to text looks something like this:

"... AT&T Free T ...plan minutes used ...ccount. Click Other to t..."

Do you have some sort of notifications turned on with your account? Hopefully they aren't spam trying to get you to click somewhere.
[Captivate General] s.m.knipe:
Oh whew, okay good. Yes I my parents had that on the account, and when I separated my line it probably stayed on there. Thanks for converting it like that, can I ask how you did it, what program or software you used? I'm not completely a NOOB but I don't know anything about hex. Plus I would like to translate them in the future. I run Ubuntu, so if you know the name or the ppa of a good conversion tool that would be awesome.

Thanks again for converting that and responding!
[Captivate General] malvegil:
I was using Notepad++ on my work Windows box. As for a similar Linux program, you could probably use gvim or maybe Okteta if you're using KDE. I just pasted and converted.
[Captivate General] s.m.knipe:
Okay, cool thanks. I am using GNOME, so gedit I guess. For the actual conversion I see several scripts and complicated commands, as well as some ASCII and multiple conversion programs, I will just experiment and figure out which works best. Thanks for your help with this.
[EVO 4G General] Zori:
I was really excited when I rediscovered homestarrunner.com and Strongbad's hilarious e-mail section. I was trying to watch the latest one on my phone, and the flash was working very smoothly and I was super excited. But then I realized, there's nothing keeping it from dimming every 30 seconds! Now, some of these flash videos get really long, and it's annoying to have to keep tapping on the page over and over. Is there anyway to keep the backlight on when flash content is present?
[EVO 4G General] Josh H.:
Not for flash content specifically, that I know of, but KeepScreen will do it on an app by app basis (eg make your screen never turn off when browser is running).
[EVO 4G General] Hanson68:
Dolphin hd has a browser setting to Keep Screen On. I checked the stock browser but do not see a similar setting.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I think it will stay on if you play the flash content full screen. Otherwise, Extended Controls has a toggle for keeping your screen on.
[EVO 4G General] martyzidek:
Thanks for mentioning this. I have not been on that website since high-school.. love it..
[EVO 4G General] pinoyxpryde:
try double tapping the flash content to focus the browser on it
[EVO 4G General] Zori:
Double tapping the content doesn't help, maybe this is from my rom (AvA) or kernel (netarchy)? I'll look into some other solutions Posted above and let you guys know. And yeah the site is awesome I just rediscovered it myself!

Hi,

i'm looking for a solution to change the space between the icons on Homescreen and Menu....

i'm using the ro.sf.lcd_density in build.prop...

quit good but the icon space is much to big...

is there somewhere a option to set this??

mainproblem is on homescreen... it looks like the screen still wants only 4 icons...

but is capable of much more now with different lcd_density setting...

thx 4 every help!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SXUsr:
That's the problem, it only "looks" like it does, but unless you've used a launcher to change how many rows and columns can be displayed it will stick to 4.

Hi,

ok thx... i mentoid this allready too...

the main problem is i use the device in landscape mode...

so there is much more space...

but because screen rotation function, and the less more space in portrait mode i'm stuck on 4 icons in landscape too...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gad13:
Why don't you try to flash in stock TMO USA firmware. Search for T959UVJFD and s1_odin_20100512.pit

If it works then just SIM unlock it and use it that way until you find something better.

At least the phone will be usable.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gad13:
The phone has 2 boot loaders.

The first one is the PBL. Some people call it primary. Samsung call it primitive. This is ok on your phone because you are able to see vibrant screen.

Second one is SBL /Second boot loader/. You can flash it using odin. All you need is to add the proper sbl.bin file to the T959UVJFD.tar file. I doubt you need to flash the SBL on your phone. The fact you can use odin to flash the device means your PBL and SBL are ok.

On your first post you mention something about water damage. You may have a real hardware problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kew1701:
I'm aware that i could have a real hardware problem,but i wanna go through all to confirm this is 100%.I can see that T959UVJFD has no sbl.bin in odin.Does somebody have maybe this file to share?

Thanks Gad13 for information!

edit:Just opened all pda's i have flashed,noone has no sbl.bin
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gad13:
Keep in mind this is a very dangerous operation. Don't blame me if your phone become worse.

Here is my SBL. It is TMO USA.

Unzip sbl.bin and add it to the tar file. I usually use AllZip and drag and drop.

MD5 file is for you to verify the bin file.

One more time. Do you really want to try this?

I've got CyanogenMod 6 on my N1 but it tells me I'm running out of space. Even using the Froyo apps2sd it's not saving me much.

If I go into CyanogenMod settings and tell it to use external, it doesn't move them? How does this work?

Also, if an app is Froyo'd to the SD, the market seems to struggle to update it?

Anyone help me?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houmles:
You can use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715940.

Just create ext partition on your sdcard and flash downloaded zip from recovery.

First boot takes little longer because all apps will be moved to ext partition.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCr15:
Thanks, seems to be doing the trick. I think it leaves the apps behind still. Do you know if I can safely delete them from the internal memory now?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houmles:
You should not delete them. You probably don't understand how app2sd(ext) works.

In froyo everything you have moved on SD is at fat on you SD (froyo style) and everything you have on internal storage is on ext partition (old app2ext style).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCr15:
Yes, but not really internal storage, it's on the partition at the beginning of my SD Card. Disk Usage looks like it's saying all the old apk's are still on the internal storage of the phone.

Anyway, no real issue. It picked up all the apps I used to have on the partition, so I had to clear a lot of those out.

Recalliberate it (drain to 0%.. turn phone on until its unable to turn on.. fully charge phone).. you could also get the 1600 mAh in the video, not much of a upgrade from the stock 1500 mAh though.

- Use dark wallpaper (and dark notifications bar if you're rooted)

- Brightness level to 0.. make sure Power saving mode is off + browser brightness to 0

- GPS off
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
You could get a second normal battery for cheaper and not have a giant phone.
[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
Might as well have just said "And no more happiness!"

I will admit the dark wallpaper helps a lot if you are on the home screen quite a bit. But the brightness down to 0 is a little extreme. I don't notice much in the way of a huge drain if my screen is up at 50 versus being at 0. There is some drain at 100 though, but still not all that much.

The battery draining and recharging helps a lot too. Also, keeping 3G off in areas where you have very weak coverage (when its constantly switching from E to 3G and back) helps. If you are in one of those areas for a long amount of time each day and have access to Wifi, use that instead.

Basically my feeling is that the main draw of these phones is the gorgeous screen coupled with the GPU. It's a media and gaming-lovers phone, so why completely ruin that experience by keeping brightness at 0?
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
The brightness is still really bright even in the dark at 0. Maybe I'm just used to it but thats how I feel. I've seen threads which people who agree with me in regards to having the brightness at 0 and wondered if there was anyway to make it even LESS bright.

[Vibrant General] speoples20:
I never understand people saying, oh just turn the brightness off, turn syncing off, don't use X program, don't have any fun on your phone. Thats like someone buying a Lambo and telling them they will get better gas mileage if they only drive 30.

if you use the update file i posted then put it on your sd card in the andboot file

then reset your phone and when you power on hold down the volume or d pad center

that will take you to the installer

let it install

when its done you will be back at the install menu

then pick number 10

the phone will boot up and you should see the new boot animations
