[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
hey mates,

for some weeks i recognized, that the glass of my hd2 is pushed a half mm or so into the housing..

generally, it's only at the sides..but thats annoying while scrolling, cause you can feel the edge...

my hd2 is in perfect condition, no scratch or anything else...

my question is: have you got the same "issue"? i can live with it, but if i would know that it would be a warranty case, i would contact htc...

i have no cam here right now, but if you need, i post some photos...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
I remember there were a fair number of reports of the seating not being flush way back around christmas.

Dunno whether anyone got it swapped under warranty though.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
so here it is:

i'm wondering, if you all out there have a similiar issue..

i think its worth a try to write the htc costumer support?

DN41

edt: its hard to see :P but if you look at the right corner, theres no edge...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
push!

DN41
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
push again..

maybe someone who has experienced this?

DN41
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrionCarl:
mines like that all the way round, guess it stops it getting scratched if it lands face down
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
scratches? ive never seen that before on any hd2.. ;)

do you remember that video where the guy tried to scratch the hd2's glass with a blade? :P

btt: isnt that annoying for you?

DN41
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrionCarl:
you haven't seen mine then, ive scratched it!always keep it cased, had it out to play music and a broom fell on to it, not a major one, but seems a lot less then a knife!no idea how it done it!!

doesnt bother me as I never knew it was a problem, I quite like it recessed to be honest, you know where to stop your finger haha:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bates_1974:
My hd2 has a similar problem, after returning from screen replacement a few months ago, the new screen is offset from the housing, like near the earpiece I can slide a piece of card etc from the right corner into the middle, no issue though I just live with it at the minute, same as my pressure marks in the middle of the screen haha, all working fine apart from that, will wait until something drastically bad goes wrong then get onto the insurance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
mines like that nearly all the way around, the only place its flush is along the bottow near the buttons and in the bottom left corner......

there was an incident where my screen took a pretty hefty knock 2 thirds of the way up on the right hand side, not sure if its coincidence or not but this is where the glass is least in line with the edge of the phone........

doesnt really bother me...... it will when my screen falls out though....:eek:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smirnon:
haha. mine is like that too, after like the 6 or 7th time going into service n out, i just cant bothered with sending it in again for something like the alignment lol. guess im like you, want everything perfect, so sent my phone for servicing 5 times in a month because they couldn't do a perfect job each time
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
hey mates :)

thanks for your help and feedbacks ;)

i contacted htc and will let you know what they say...

if they say its a warranty case, i'll be happy...if not, i can live with it..

but, as smirnon says, i want everything perfect :D

DN41
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
this is what they said:

translated:

if you have a branded phone, please contact your contract partner. they should do it for you. if your phone is not branded, please send it without sim, accu, cable but with a copy of the bill to .... blablablabalaaa

ok..so i ask them again, if they can say me, if this is a warranty case or not..if so, i'll bring it to t-mobile next week...

DN41
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrionCarl:
you must of jinxed my phone being picked up monday for a screen repair!got a small white spot light in the screen, will see how it comes back!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
they replied again:

i'll go to t-mobile shop tomorrow where i bought it, and will ask them..lets hope the best :)

Hi all, new member to the forums but have used the knowledge here before many times.

I bought an unlocked Bell HTC Legend and have successfully used it on AT&T until encountering major issues yesterday. The phone started to lose signal, flopping between gsm, edge, 3g, and nothing. Then it started randomly restarting over and over again. Then I lost signal completely and it was telling me to insert a sim card when i would go into check the APN settings. Wouldn't give the error on the main screen when there is actually no sim in the phone, would just say no service. I took the sim out of the phone and tried it in my Nokia and it worked perfectly fine.

Heard issues from others about using the Bell ROM with AT&T so I proceeded to try and flash the phone with the generic WWE ROM to try and fix it. Was able to create a gold card after multiple attempts but could never get the phone to stay connected to HTC sync and the computer as it would disconnect when running the ROM .exe file. Outside of running the ROM .exe it would connect to the PC fine. Tried to update the drivers on the phone because i'm running windows 7 x64 but it wouldn't let me load the vista x64 drivers, just kept telling me that the driver loaded was the latest and correct.

I factory reset the phone as a last attempt and that worked for a little bit but then the signal errors happened again and the phone would show full bars and the 'H' but no data would be uploading or downloading most of the time. It had detected and latched onto a signal i guess but wouldn't consistently transfer data. I messed around with the APN settings again and now its resarting itself again and showing no signal most of the time.

I'm really not sure what to do at this point. It seems like a phone issue not so much the network or the sim. Not sure if its a battery contact or sim contact issue? I'd like to try and get the phone to stay connected so I can flash the ROM and see if that works.

Any help or past experience would be helpful. I feel like i've tried everything and searched everywhere for answers.

Thanks.
[Legend General] k.mooijman:
as far as i know the bars show signal strength of the GSM and not necessarily of the data quality. i hav the same issu ( showing bars but no data ) in some areas that are well covered by G2 but poor by G3 .

this brings me to the next question :

is data and pnone impaired by this problem? or only data ?

also it could be a fiscal problem, maybe the antenna is having trouble ?

good luck
[Legend General] njhokie:
The phone and data are affected.

I was finally able to flash it to the generic 1.31 WWE ROM by updating the windows device drivers while the program was trying to install the ROM. Found that info reading through all the comments in the downgrade thread.

The phone is still having issues keeping a connection though. It pulled the APN info off the sim but its not the same info I was using before when I manually entered the AT&T settings i've found searching the net. Its now reads this:

Name: MediaNet

APN: same

Proxy: same

Port: 80

Username: same

Password: *******

Server: Not Set

MMSC: same

MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32

MMS Port: 8080

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

APN Type: *

The phone connected for a while but it was intermitent. I entered the other AT&T APN settings i've found on the web and those didn't work right either, connection kept dropping.

I don't know what is going on. I'm guessing its a bad phone or bad sim? Antenna or something?

Update: I'm using the default APN settings it pulled off the sim and it seems to be working ok for the moment. Freaking phone.
[Legend General] njhokie:
Update 2: Installed a version of Swype, had pinch to zoom and lag issues, restarted the phone, connnection became crap. Uninstalled swype, seemed to work but its still have connection issues. Shows connection and bars and data going up but nothing coming in. Goes in and out of connection.

Just for those following along.... I guess I should try and contact HTC.
[Legend General] njhokie:
Found this very interesting thread:

forum dot vodafone dot co dot uk/topic/58054-htc-legend-antenna-issue/

and this:

code dot google dot com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2845&q=auto%202g%203g%20switching&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars

2g/3g switching issue w/ Andriod? Is there a better ROM out there that will avoid this? My wives Samsung Galaxy doesn't have this issue (knock on wood).
[Legend General] k.mooijman:
It is true the antenna is in the bottom cover of the phone

and now i remember t had some issues as well with the reception

i used WD40 to clean the contact points from the phone and the cover

i did not spray it directly but used a point of a cloth to put it on the right places and never had trouble again
[Legend General] Kwen:
I wouldn't use WD40, it leaves a residue behind...

If you want to clean those contacts, a simple eraser works fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevilDogVIKING:
I'm trying to push an apk there but I can't get permission. I tried using this:

adb shell mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system

but it told me "operation not permitted". I got that code from the one click root.

What am I doing wrong?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aridon:
When in the sdk tools directory but not in adb do;

adb push C:\file.apk /sdcard/file.apk

then open shell

adb shell

su

mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system

now you are mounted. Just move the file

mv /sdcard/file.apk /system/app/file.apk

I unplugged my phone at 630am to go to work today. It is 237pm now. I haven't plugged my phone in all day and my battery stats says 1hr 44min since last plugged in. When I refresh it just changes the seconds. Also there is no where telling me my battery percent. Anyone else seeing this?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl33dm3:
I love this phone more than the iPhone but I just give up on uploading movies. I can upload music with no problem but movies forget it. I'm using handbrake and I get the same result: sound good....but video scrambled and choppy. I have followed the post on how to upload videos using handbrake but I'm having no luck with it. Any ideas???
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denellum:
very strange man, i also followed them as the guy instructed, but for me the playback is amazing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kizzmiazz:
Yeah that's strange. I have Total Recall , lord of the rings , and pulp fiction all look and run perfect. All made with hand brake.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] takerfan:
Test it on your computer first, if the video is still messed up then it's an encoding error.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
Personally, I think DVDFab's ease of use makes it a better alternative to handbrake. DVD and BluRay decryption is built in, and in one click I can have it Rip a movie to iPhone format. I use one more click to change screen size for captivate - but this doesn't really have to be done. They update this app regularly - i bought the platinum edition long ago, and it has not failed me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] draino623:
Give Rockplayer a try to see if you have better results as far as playback goes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl33dm3:
I will try a different movie and see if that works. Just Samsung would make a program for the phone that makes this an easier job to do. This is the only draw back to this phone, most people dont have the time or skills to do this. Just my 2 cents.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImNraged:
Pardon my arrogance, but it appears as though you're trying too hard. I drag and drop my mp4 movies from my laptop to my Captivate with Windows Explorer. They work like a champ.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asori:
I double this notion. :)

Rock Player is great.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
DVDFab is as easy as it gets and they have a 15 day trial - put your disk in, say DVD to Mobile; pick iPhone and you are done. No phone manufacturer makes a tool for ripping DVDs - mainly because it violates the DMCA in the US.

If you want an iTunes like solution, then in a few days you can buy your shows via the Samsung mediahub. Point and Click.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] CyberClaw:
Ever since I found Laskar V2 transparent theme, I haven't used any other. Finally I decided to modify the CHT (and some apps) icons to match my favorite theme.

Image 1

Image 2

It doesn't show very well with my wallpaper and in low res but the icons are transparent in the background, and semi-transparent in the black borders. I snatched the design from CHT borders and icons, and used some Metro5 white icons.

I'll post both the icons I made, as well as the templates so you can modify and apply to your own icons, or to the CHT icons I didn't get to make because I don't use.

DOWNLOAD MY ICONS v1.1

PNG Icons inside the Windows folder need to be moved to the Windows folder (over-writes original CHT icons). The rest needs to be set with a program like CSMI.

CHT_no_icon.png is the empty icon. Both xcf files in the Windows folder are the templates for GIMP2 of the CHT icons, I seem to have misplaced the xcf (read as, forgot to save the file) for the app icons templates... Oh well. Just use the CHT_no_icon.png

Links for stuff I use in my phone:

Cookie's Home Tab

Laskar V2 transparent theme

Hero Clock for CHT

B&W Circular Battery icon

WM7 Metro Icons (I snatched some white icons from here)

Custom background by me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] CyberClaw:
Noticed a couple of "bugs". App icons with the inner white border gets too crowded, so I'll be removing it like it was before it looks way better (you can still see the old icon in active sync and RSS in the image I took lol).

CHT icons will retain the inner white border, otherwise they easly get passed by apps, and simply doesn't look as good (the reason I inserted the 2nd border in the first place)

EDIT: Done
[Vibrant General] ibuddha:
I'm at work so unfortunately I don't have access to the forums and searching for help through the xda is too time consuming and I've already got customers on hold :p.

Anyway the problem is that xda keeps force closing on me after I post something it's ridiculous. It force closes then asks me to sign in again and when I input my credentials it just sits there"processing" to fix it I have to run my task manager, close the appp then open it again. Fortunately, whatever I post still goes through but its just annoying. Anyway to fix this guys?

[Vibrant General] zephiK:
Don't use a task manager, this has been reported by many users and I don't believe that there is a workaround this at the moment. If it's stuck on processing, you can just hit the back button and it'll work as intended! No need to close it.
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
I don't use a task manager and I'm having the same problems. Force close after reply... Like right now ha ha

Edit: actually it didn't do it this time
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
I never said that the task manager causes the FC but task manager does cause a lot of problems with other applications and overall Android system. It happens to me once in a while but it's not a big deal for me.

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/04/multitasking-android-way.html As well as other Android developers don't agree with using task manager. But hey, if you want to use it for whatever reason even though everybody advises you not to.. thats okay too. Don't say we didn't tell you so!
[Vibrant General] ibuddha:
I am starting to think that maybe the task manager is worthless, but it just annoys me knowing that there's a bunch of apps on the background just sucking up all my battery. lol
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
If you read the article, Android manages apps in the background. Believe it or not but battery life is better without using a task manager lol. Do some research about it, definitely not worth it
[Vibrant General] ibuddha:

Ok, so i've had my x10 for a month and i love it. but...

i've noticed that everytime i turn off the screen, the light turns off first, and if im in a brightly lit room i can still see the the picture without the backlight for like a second.

is this normal anyone else have this?
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
I've noticed it with other phones in the past, but not with the X10. Maybe I'm just not looking closely enough...
[XPERIA X10 General] Lord Takyon:
I have had this on previous phones, and have it on this one too.

It doesn't do it all the time, just on a random basis. I assume it is ok and don't worry about it.

Sorry guys I won't retype everything twice now. Worked all the day to get this pushed out. Now I am kinda tired! So this is just a quick first post. I will update it later. The first SuperFroyo Release is available now!

As promised by you in the "Good News..."-Thread -< I need testers now!

Here is the link + download + instructions for the first release of SuperFroyo for X1:

Android SuperFroyo

reserved for my mama and papa...naaaah future updates!!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
IM downloading it. I will report back as soon as posible.

THANKS. IM very excited :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jojooj:
Good!!

I am waiting for about 4hours lol

I want to work camera this version

btw thxxxxx

P.s: Pardon my English TT
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] gaurav_v:
I am gonna Try It Tonight...... Thanks .. Neo.. And All Devlopers........ Cheers
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Its faster than any previous version of android on X1 and more responsive.

its seems very stable.

When i enter SupSetup it crashes. I guess that is CyogenMod setup but it doesnt work.

First haret boot is long. But then its very fast. After i hit haret it enters android very fast.

Scrolling in file manager and menu gerneraly is faster. And phone wakes up very fast. Before i had to wait 0,5 second or 1 second to unlock phone...now its instantly up. Hope you understand me.

3d seems better. I dont know if 3dHW accelleration is enabled. Carom3d was running very slow on tremers21/8 like 1 frame per two second. And now with this its running like 3 frames per second. Improvement but 3d games are still unplayable.

Next problem its battery status. When im charging its showing CHARGING for few seconds then its instantly showing 100% wich is not true. Then when i unplug cable its showin 50% and droping to 40% like 1% every 2 seconds. I was like WTF. Its not showing the right value.

Sliding beetween screens seems a bit laggy.

Before on 21/8 tremers when someone calls me i have to wait 3-4 seconds before i could se who is calling. Now on this version its very fast.

On XPERIA X1 generaly the ONE button on top is used for turning screen on and of, and for turning phone off. In your android version that funcion you assined to bottom right button (Drop/Cancel Call Button).

even when i hold that button i cant enter POWER OFF button becouse it tuns off display just after showing POWEROFF option.

i will try to test battery life time.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jkoljo:
Kernel panic - not syncing, no init found.

What is wrong, I did everything according to instructions (I think :))
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
As I wrote on my site SupSetup is not available atm. I removed apk! For me this build runs amazing compared to my HTC Diamond (also SuperFroyo so I have the direct comparation). It's really incredible also for me how fast the display wakes up! My Diamond needs sometimes up to 3secs or doesn't even wake up...

I also encountered the prob with powering off. But you maqy remap the keys. Another solution is to press AND hold down poweroff-button and then touch the display with left hand for reboot/poweroff. This works for me.

Nevertheles I am really confused how good it works. I also tested Neocore by pushing it! It gave me 18FP/s without overclocking. Don't know it exactly but how much do you get on Trem's build?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
I know you propably followed everything but this is what i did.

Formated SDcard. Created 3.650 (not exactly) Fat32 partition and 350 Ext2 partition.

Copied everything on Fat32 partition with haret.exe been on root. From WM6.5 first i launched install.exe from npkinstall. After reboot i started haret.exe from root of SDcard.

That is all.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
You think :-) Please try to start from scratch. Seems like you made a mistake somewhere. In most cases you didn't partition correctly. Try it out a few times. It will work cause this build for X1 is noob-friendly if you have partitioned correctly! 3 Steps:

* Partitioning

* Running install.exe within npkinstall-folder

* Running haret.exe from root

Maybe you can have a look at documentation-folder. It contains some jpegs to help you out...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
And please how do i change the black notification bar to original white???
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jkoljo:
Yeah, thanks for help Neopeek and denyboy, I noticed that as I had followed the partition sizes in the youtube video, I had ended up with 580 meg ext2. I will format again to 350 meg ext2 :)

We will see, I will post the results!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
You can change it in settings. Move to spareparts blablabla. Somewhere you will find Notification colors. Adjust them and then reboot Android!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Thanks. By the way. Mass Storage dont work. That is nothing new.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Dont follow that complex tutorial. Just boot ubuntu or any other gnu/linux go to Gparted and delete all partitions then create new FAT32 and new Ext2 with adeqate size. That all.

Or use any other software for partitioning for Windows or GNU/Linux
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
The build is preconfigured for ADB in froyo.user.conf. I thought some of you guys may help in logging via ADB to fix some bugs and providing logs via adb / ddms
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
I hope someone will help you finish this but im not expert. I guess tremere could assist you he did great work. You two combined should acomplish great things when it comes to Android on Xperia.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jkoljo:
Ok, now it works! The Android just did not like my 580 meg ext2 partition :)

And phew, it is FAST!

The battery driver goes crazy sometimes.

By the way, you mentioned about overclocking in your post in the other forum, is it possible?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
original notification bar has a textures. When i select simple colors like this it looks owfull. Any way to restore the default white one.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] tosomax:
how is the battery life?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
I will test that later. Its going to be hard to test it becouse battery status its not reliable.

P.S. Gallery is not 3d. its standard gallery.
