Thanks for the apk, it was not available for the Desire on the market!
[Vibrant Android Development] willmatic:
Has anyone else noticed that the screen stays on for like less than a second when a new SMS arrives? I can almost never get my hand over to the phone to unlock it before the screen turns back off. It would be most Excellent if there were a way to increase this timeout.

This would be great.

[Epic 4G Accessories] dws51:
I am unable to watch a video on the Desktop dock. When I put the Epic into the dock it hits the volume rocker and it then turns the volume to mute. On a couple of occasions I have been able to barely put it in and it will play at what ever volume but once I touch it and mutes it again.

Anyone having a better experience with it?

Thanks
[Epic 4G Accessories] austin420:
ive got said dock. same issues. totally cuz the volume rocker is hitting the cradle in just the right manner. ive just gotten really good at putting it in at just the right angle to not hit it, but your right. if i touch pretty much anything, it starts to turn the volume down all the way. what i do when im not going to try to have a movie playing is always make sure the screen is off. the dock will turn on the screen about a few seconds after its plugged in. it shouldnt be this big of a pain in the ass and im thinking about taking the dock back. i think its a legitimate reason.
[Epic 4G Accessories] othan1:
I didn't have any of these problems with mine and was wondering what everyone was talking about.

That is until I took my phone charm off. Apparently the tiny string the charm uses is enough to keep the phone from hitting the volume and causing problems.

That being said, you can control volume, too, through the function and arrow keys on the keyboard. It helps but it is still annoying if you don't have a charm and keep hitting the hardware volume keys.

(My charm is ninja stars, so not all charms are "girly".)
[Epic 4G Accessories] austin420:
ya. i had an old psp wrist strap on and noticed it kept it from happening too, but the strap is kinda garish and i didnt want it on there all the time. im still on the fence about taking it back.
[Epic 4G Accessories] ldrn:
I put three layers of electrical tape along the right half of the groove, just before it dips down for the volume keys (alas, not down far enough.) It works great for me... since I was going to cover that bright blue light anyway. ;)
[HD2 General] Dc_striker:
I was wondering if there is a program or spl to unlock the phone so i can use it for at&t
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
No, buy a code or ask t mobile.
[HD2 General] leon_nerd:
Where can we buy the code? I have tried like 3 different vendors (offline) but none of them have been able to get the unlock code. I read somewhere that the latest HD2s are coming with a new Series and it is hard to find the unlock codes for them. Is it true?
[HD2 General] SuperSport:
I did it twice with this guy. http://www.htccode.com/

First time when it was new $15, and second time with a new motherboard replacement. It had the new IMEI, but he was able to do it still. I think it cost an extra $10 because of new database, but it was worth it for me.

His site has you download a program. I was not able to get that working because I was paying with PayPal, but he walked me through it on the Live Chat window in about 5 mins. Both times, VERY quick, and very easy. Nice to deal with.
[HD2 General] xxxander09:
Hi. I have a problem. I have the unlock code from T-Mobile and I use it to unlock my phone (I had the shipping ROM 2.10.531.1) and after that I updated my ROM to 2.13.531.1 and now the phone is locked again and the code is not working. What can I do? Thanks
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
By flashing a new ROM your device should not have re-locked itself as far as I know. Try going back to 2.10 and see if it is indeed unlocked, or just slap your SIM in the phone as it is, cancel the SIM unlock and see if it can dial out without entering the code. If it can, just ignore the prompt and use the device as normal. This used to happen on the Wizard, phantom "relocks" but if you just ignored 'em all was like normal. I do not know if it works with the HD2 aswell but I suppose it is worth a try!

I myself SIM unlocked my US HD2 and have flashed several ROMs includeing stock ones and have never had my device re-lock on me.
[HD2 General] xxxander09:
Yea but the problem is that I don't have anymore the version 2.10 and beside that today I put an AT&T sim and the phone said that the sim is missing :-?
[HD2 General] ferraripassion:
Try a hard reset.

Is the phone not asking you to enter any code?
[HD2 General] xxxander09:
I tried hard reset, but is not working and is not asking me for code. I just have in start menu a prog called SIM App. and there it ask the code but when I put the code it say that is wrong even if the first time with 2.10 ROM it worked. I spoke with T-Mobile and they don't know or don't want to tell me because I'm not their customer. :( Nobody have the original 2.10? the one that is shipped with the phone?

Unroot Your Droid Eris

http://jonsuh.com/2010/09/unroot-your-droid-eris-how-to/

I referenced a lot of posts and resources here on this forum, and wanted to see and get your help on the content of the article and to see if the tips I provided are good, and if there are better or more things I can add.

I feel the people here at XDA know best how to make the Eris like it should!

All and any help you can provide would be great!

[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
I actually don't like Autokiller for making the phone fast.

Most people use 4-5 apps on their phone 90% of the time.

When re-opening those apps (even the dialer) due to them being killed from memory (thanks, autokiller), it takes longer than if they were still in memory.

My experiences with autokiller say, if a ROM has aggressive settings when you get it, download autokiller just to set them back to normal.

I hate to say that to make friends' Eris's faster (since I have gotten a dozen or more friends to buy this phone), I pretty much put xtrSense on there (or whatever fastest ROM I like is out there), and move on with life.

Some things as simple as optimized .png files in the .apks and simple overclocking make the phone noticably smoother and faster, and are very worthwhile.

This is a great tutorial page though.

You are a boon to the Android community. You are noble to help share your wealth of information with others, especially those who are new to the community. Thank you for your service, good sir. +1
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I agree with what he said about autokiller.

You may want to mention that setcpu's widget has caused a lot of problems for people so it should be removed if they start noticing lag.

^ Smoother scrolling.

You can also change your wifi scanning time by editing this line to 90:

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 90

You can put that up to 130 as well. It should save a bit of battery when wifi is turned on.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jsuh:
Thanks for all the input. I only put the suggestions on the page that I have personally dealt with; I rarely ever suggest something personally unless I've tested it personally myself.

What I'll do is run through the things I've missed and the ones I'm not so familiar with, I'll test and see before I do a write up on them. Thanks though; I really do appreciate the help and input. Any more suggestions/comments are more than welcome!
[Droid Eris Android Development] refthemc:
For me it was having a brightness widget handy, turning my Calender and Contacts sync on about once a week and watching my 3G. I used to run Autokiller but it closed that pig called HTC browser to many times on me while I was switching back in forth between apps.

Edit: Actually now that I think about it, I just bought a car charger and called it a day lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] StephenMilone:
i have a sprint htc hero running CM6 [which is a VERY similar phone to the droid eris for those that dont know] and my GPS was all messed up, but following the GPS section of your guide fixed it for me! thanks!!!!!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] jsuh:
Took your consideration on the AutoKiller and since it seems to be more of a preference, I put a disclaimer saying what it will do and to set the settings lower if one wants.

Thanks again for your input; it's my pleasure to share the little that I know from experience.

Hey, I'm glad it helped! It was frustrating to me too to wait 3-7 minutes for my stupid GPS to lock in place. It's been a great help to me
[Droid Eris Android Development] kmo97:
I really like your post.

I already knew most of the tips, but I can see how this would be very helpful to most. And you wrote it up wonderfully.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jsuh:
Just added "Dialer One" to the list of the custom apps I recommend. Truly a great app to get away from the default Dialer that I absolutely HATE!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Izeltokatl:
You may want to post an alternative location for SetCPU (market link, barcode) so some people can pay for the app and not get it for free. I believe the dev wants to drive traffic to his paid market app to support him. Not suggesting you remove the free location on the XDA, but help a guy out.

no I dont work for that dev, just saying, give him a 50/50 chance to make some cash for his hard work that everyone takes for granted.

otherwise great blog post.
[Droid Eris Android Development] markdmac:
Dialer One

So far your advice has been spot on. I just flashed my phone with KaosFroyo and am doing all of your suggested changes. I am total agreement that Dialer One is a much better dialer. I made the mistake of using Titanium Backup to uninstall the default dialer. Next thing I knew my phone could not make calls. Is there any way to make the default on screen phone button use Dialer One?

[Droid Eris Android Development] Steve125:
Great guide! Thanks for taking the time to put all this together. It should help a lot of people.
[Droid Eris Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
I have only one suggestion, as I did not see this on your blog.

You need to have a disclaimer somewhere in that post, preferably at the top of the post, disavowing any liability on your part if someone bricks their phone following your guide.

You also should repeat and STRESS that warning in your radio section. Flashing a radio may be easy with flashable zips, but it is also the easiest way to brick a phone. If that MD5 is off and the person doesn't know it or if their phone screws up somehow during the flash process, it will be dead. You should also probably state that if their radio is working fine, there is absolutely no need to flash a new one.

Other than that, I thought it was a pretty nice guide.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jsuh:
Thanks to everyone that took the time to review the read! In the next couple of days, I should be adding a couple more tips; been so swamped this past wk haven't had much time to do anything.

Well, I'm not sure if you use ADW or LauncherPro. If you use LauncherPro, I know the dock icons (last row) can be customized. Just long press one of the icons (probably the phone icon in your case) > Change shortcut > Applications > Dialer One. That's what I did.

I do have a section under "Root is vital" that has a disclaimer, but maybe I will take the time and create it's own section. I'll add and put the disclaimers up as soon as I can, thanks :)

You may want to mention the Collin Battery Tweak, but personally I would skip it. It's for more advanced users and you should really only do it once you're comfortable with the phone.
[Droid Eris Android Development] cold21blooded:
I really like your guide... Kinda wish it was out when i started messing with my eris in march lol.. but i think a good add-on to the guide would be a apps section.. i see a couple of people are recommending some apps and stuff like dialer one and titanium.. If you throw a app section in with a little info on what they do, im sure the people using the guide would love it.. its just a recommendation keep up the work

Must say this thread is everything an eris owner NEEDS to know about their phone. After installing kaosfroyo and finding the link to your page, you and xda dev made me a very happy first generation android owner that can say my phone really isn't outdated. It was just not used to max potential.

In addition, just about every thread I try to help with someones eris not performing games well or this and that... I just toss up the URL of your site and that usually fixes things.

I've thought of it, but I've been tryin to keep my blog rather simple enough for people to follow. Sometimes adb cmds can be overwhelming. I feel if someone's good enough to run adb cmds, they'd know where to look to come across the collins_ph battery tweak.

I may create a different post for more in-depth tweaks like the battery tweak and others, not quite sure yet though. I don't want to put too much in one article.

The section for upgrading your kernel probably isn't necessary if you're running a custom ROM already, especially KAOS since he has his own customized version. You may want to mention that in there because someone brand new to rooting may just use your guide as a checklist without putting thought into it.

Replace card that wont send SMS with another one (same number, but new SIM card). You can ask your operater to do that. Maybe they will charge you with some small ammount of money. That solved my problem.
