i've a similar problem, when pressing the hardware button 'home' (but not always) and when sliding from a screen to another (somethines), sense crashes, then the white background with green htc appeard and then sense restarts (about 5 seconds).

it's really annoying because it happens about 3/5 times every hour...

by the way: it started happening yesterday evening as soon as i upgradeto to 2.10.405.2!!!

really really annoying....

[Desire General] spritable:
I do not have this issue, but just shooting in the dark. Did you have installed (and then removed) an application just like LauncherPro.

My girlfriend has a Wildfire and she has installed a lot of themes for it. Some of them she removed, some not. Some of those application is a home screen replacement (like LanucherPro, but not it) and even though she assured me (and I've checked) that she uninstalled it, sometimes when she hit the Home button she has to choose he default launcher between HTC Sence and "Home" (whatever that means), like if you have LaucherPro installed and have cleared the default of HTC Sence service.

So my point is, maybe some third party home screen replacement (launcher) is so buggy that it causes your issue.
[Desire General] alessandro_xda:
...interesting

but i've never installed any home screen replacement, just sense.

i tried to remove the big watch widget (the one with weather included) but nothing changed, sense often crashes and auto-restarts.

is it possible to re-install only the sense app?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] KRAZzysoldier:
I was wondering if there's any solution to the issue of the screen staying locked while the phone is pluged in for synchronise or charging? I've been trying to find a setting of some kind but I failed :(

I am using Android screen locker.

The purpose is the following:

When I put my phone in the car craddle (with a built in charger and hadns free) it lights up locked and it is a bit annoying to slide down the screen each time I sit in the car for a drive. It would be nice to have the screen unlocked and the phone ready for use (navi, phonecall,...).

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] LiquidGlow:
I know you said you're using Android locker, which I'm honestly not familiar with. BUT, I'm using S2U2 and it is set to unlock on external power. It also has an option to unlock when connected to a cradle.

Both options can be found under the "Others" section of the S2U2 Settings.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] KRAZzysoldier:
Will give it a try. 10x!

I had the box discarded before importing it into Canada.

Does anyone work at an AT&T/retail store with access to an extra box (from a demo/floor model) want to hook me up?

Hello,

My phone's battery cover was broken and i can't replace it. This is the only option (www ipaqrepair co.uk/ipaqpart1759.html), but it is too expensive for me.

Does anybody have another idea?

Thanks!

You could get one of these:

It includes a back cover designed to fit the new battery. Mind you, it's way bulkier than the original.

Please help. I'm running the stock rom, and the android market apps keep failing to install. No matter what I do, even if I factory reset, it works for a little while then stops.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tysj:
Is it force closing once it starts to install? If so, I ran into the same problem and going in Manage Applications and clearing the Market's cache and uninstalling updates helped me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hollywould:
Yeah, I tried that. Still didn't help. Then I ran across a post suggesting going to Manage Applications, make sure to filter all, and go to Download Manager, and clearing the Cache and Clear Data, and that worked for me.
[EVO 4G General] fchipm:
Anyone else noticing their power button "squeaks" when pressed? Maybe that's not the right word. Almost sounds like a leather shoe on a shiny floor. Just started happening a while ago. Have had my Evo about 2 months.

Doesn't so far seem to be an issue, other than really seems to cheapen the device and ruin the sleakness of it :(
[EVO 4G General] Rydah:
I have a squeaky volume button

:(
[EVO 4G General] Jjday7:
^ 1+ it only does it sometimes but it's irritating. I only notice it when I hold the phone with two hands and try to put the volume up. Doesn't happen when I use one hand. Maybe it's the angle.
[EVO 4G General] cMeka:
All buttons on this device are trash
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
Haha, I was amused after I read your comment and then saw your sig..

I have no complaints about the buttons. Sounds like you have some dust around them or something.

The only gripe I have about this phone is the dust door (aka the headphone jack). The top left corner of my screen is lousy with dust :(
[EVO 4G General] bjb_nyj101:
My Power button isn't squeaky, but it's mushy / sticky. Sometimes I have to press very hard, or press several times for the device to lock/unlock.

How would I know if there's dust around the buttons?

If there is any, it isn't visible.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buffnutz1:
I'm trying to switch roms because of all the problems I had with CM. I'm choosing Wipe Data/Cache but it's keeping all the stuff. My wifi settings stay, it's like its pasting half of the new rom over CM. How can I make sure it's completely deleting all the stuff? I've done it from ClockworkMod and from the recovery screen but neither get the job done. Any ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tudork:
Hello, after I updated with the most recent OTA, I noticed that everytime I switch off the Wifi, my Desire (unrooted, unlocked, with Froyo) cannot connect to mobile internet anymore. I have to switch to airplane mode, than back again. Before the Froyo update, it would do that sometimes, and I saw other people complaining about the same thing. After this last update, however, it's everytime. Basically, if the mobile internet is disconnected, it won't connect back unless I turn on and off the airplane mode. It's very inconvenient. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sheepforwheat:
Can we please keep the latest version of swype on a single thread for us to download? There are so many threads about swype and all it's themes but i can't find the latest version of "Vanilla" swype anywhere. I am not on the beta swype group, so the swype installer doesn't work for me. I need an .apk

So what is the latest? And can someone please provide the .apk

mods, please forgive my ignorance if this is something that is forbidden.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
afaik its being worked on by some people on irc but not perfected yet :) ill let you know if i hear anything new
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] marcmarshall:
I recently installed the official latest beta and swype sucks four me now. Came to the forum to look for a link to an earlier version. Poor accuracy, junk words, constant"hidden word"pop ups and words won't delete. On top of all that swype stops responding after every reboot, habr (habr is good example) to switch to regular keyboard and back- known bug on dinc. Garbage now.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] luniz7:
That had to do with the apk you have. It has been edited because swype implemented security that is supposed to keep you from using it if you are not a registered swype user for the beta program. I hear that the evo swype works tho.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] marcmarshall:
No, I am a registerd user and this is the official latest beta. It blows
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] luniz7:
Well no issue here...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bilbobrian:
Guys, I don't mean to be a stick in the mud, but swype has asked pretty nicely for their beta to stay for registered users. they have been pretty cool about it (my thread stayed open for a long time) if someone posts a new beta with their security cracked, they are going to be pissed off and take it out on xda. Just my 2 cents.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] thelunchboxosu:
I'd pay for swype if they would put up a final release. Get on it swype!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gmonox:

Luniz7 :

Wow. That surprises me. It is seriously bad for me. Others on the Swype forum report similar problems. (funny I was just able to Swype all this without a pop up!)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sheepforwheat:
The problem most people have is that the Swype company doesn't allow new beta sign-ups. I don't understand why they are limiting the number of people that can test their product. I would gladly pay for swype even if it was in beta. But since I can't pay for it, because it's not on sale, i must "pirate" it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] aaronjb:
Can you explain to the rest of the class why you have a *right* to use Swype?

Behavior like this is exactly why developers walk away from a platform. Then again, I'd expect nothing less from the xda DInc community.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] marcmarshall:
aarinjb:

Behavior like this is exactly why developers walk away from a platform.

So do you think apple is going to drop their platform because of all the jail breaking. The new os was jail broke the day after it came out.

I once read an opinion that MS actually profited from the days before they started all their elaborate activation protocols and you could simply copy Office from any CD, usually from where you worked. The idea was that the ubiquitous theft of the software caused it to be the predominant platform and drove the competitors out (whatever happened to Word Perfect?)

I doubt Swype is too upset about ( a relatively small number of geeky) users who like their software so much they are hacking it into their phones. Not like they are losing sales since it's not for sale anyway.

I'm not condoning software theft, just don't think the code police are going to start tracking us down via the gps on our phones or shut down the forum. Nor do I think Swype is going to give up developing and marketing for the Android platform.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bilbobrian:
The point arronjb is trying to make is, when a company puts security on software and someone cracks it that is completely wrong and in my opinion is outright theft. I personally don't think its too big of a deal for a beta to get passed around if there is no lock on it. This is the reason I closed my thread. Btw aaronjb low blow about the dinc forum.... Again just my 2 cents
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] marcmarshall:
bilbobrian

Can't argue with that, their intention is clear. I don't think HTC wants us rooting and cooking roms either then. I guess the difference may be that I own my phone. The courts recently ruled that phone providers cannot stop people from unlocking and hacking their phones, except in certain situations I believe.

I also wonder why aaronjb singled out the dinc forum on XDA?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mzmartipants:
Really? This is no different than the music industry *****ing. The nature of the internet is supply and demand. How many people p2p anymore for music? Itunes and Amazon sell music for what people will buy it for. Until swype sells a product, this will be what goes on.

Is anyone else having a problem with this version of swype? I have installed and uninstalled it NUMEROUS times. It will work for a day or so, then for no reason at all it locks up and you can't swype at all. You have to touch to type. What's up with that? I'm getting sick of doing the installer and uninstalling over and over again. :mad:

FWIW, I'd BUY Swype if I could. I'd be a beta tester if it was available. I'd LOVE to support the developers if they would let me.

Instead all I can do is tell everybody what a great option it is. Except they can't use it either.

IMHO, the Swype marketing and product developing team needs to go to business school. I obviously don't know their business plan, and it may very well be as impressive as their keyboard, but from what we've seen so far, apparently they are very good at creating a very nice piece of code, but simply suck at marketing their work.

Because there is more bs drama that goes on in these forums then most shows on tv...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] marcmarshall:
Hmm. Haven't noticed it. Maybe I've been lucky. So I'm going to assume he did not mean the dinc forum but XDA forums. Actually I have seen more drama on other forums so I'm going to take it to mean "Forums".

Seemed to be he was commenting on hacking and pirating though. Anyway, it doesn't really matter to me. I was just wondering why he picked on dinc above all others.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] aaronjb:
The Droid Incredible forums here are nearly a complete waste of time; in particular, the development forum is all but useless. (and, yes, I realize the irony in this very post). I'm not sure if this is due to the popularity of the device, but the WinMo forums I visited don't suffer from this issue to nearly the same degree, and many of the other Droid forums seem to have more on-topic discussion.

Moderation is insufficient and ineffective in these subforums.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
FWIW, I strongly disagree. In any event, if it doeson't work for you, feel free to move on.

I appreciate that viewpoint, and thanks for the gentle prod to move on. I don't have much to offer, but I've certainly picked useful information from several threads here.

Signal-to-noise is low here: witness these Swype threads (which really should be locked), the mess that is the "Development" subforum, and the number of users who have to be constantly reminded to use the search feature.

The benefits of piracy...

Personally I use Swype and am not in the beta testing. Swype is the best keyboard to happen to android but that being said I wouldn't be buying it when they come out with a version on the market if I hadn't had the opportunity to try it out like I have so far. So you can cry pirate all you want, but the "pirating" of the beta Swype has made me a believer in Swype and you can be sure I will be buying a copy the moment it comes out. So in truth, piracy has just won them a customer and I would imagine there are many others in the same boat, Aaarg!!! Pirates unite! Let's take Swype to the top of the market the moment they release it!!!

P.S. Ninjas not invited to the celebration party of Swype's release.

Then why are you here? Go bother someone else in another forum if we are so inadequate, and not to YOUR standards. You're being of no help here.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gimini:
Swype arent morons in marketing, infact they are very clever. They have this beta setup this way on purpose...they have a large yet closed beta to build hype in the geek community which then share this amazing app that noone can get to build anticipation....why u ask? Here's a hint, Its not so u can get it in the market. Now imagine ur a cell phone developer like htc or motorola or dell....how much are you willing to pay swype so ur specific device is the ONLY phone in the world to have such an amazing and already highly anticipated app.

Sorry, that dog won't hunt.

While I WOULD be willing to pay for the Swype app, I would NOT base my phone-purchasing decision on a keyboard app, no matter how good it was.

Hi,

i found some videos on the web showing the 3,5mm->RCA TV Out feature from the original Motoroi XT720. I have the Milestone XT720 and i am assuming the hardware would still support this. The official headphone plug has still 3 pins, as example. It seems simply like the setting is gone ... is there a way to re-enable it ?

I dont care how hacky it is.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] progenx:
yeah, it will be freaking awesome to have that special tv output feature. if only we have some dev to make that option available as an app made specially for xt720, now we can only wait. moto should have made this feature available so that we could toggle from our device display to tv display manually. just a thought why would they have that ONLY for stock media player. this BEAST is more than that!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hkbkjosh:
The new XT720 has an HDMI out that can be used as a tv-out . You will probably have to use an adapter if you want to convert it to vga or s-video

Ok so we know, at least most of us know, that there are way too many bugs with this phone.

Here is an other one to add to the list:

The camera simply does not work when I need it to.

I press the physical "take photo" button on the side of the camera and then I see the image of the camera come up and it hangs there for about 45 seconds to 1 minute, sometimes longer, then it goes back to the default screen, not the camera menu.

I click on the camera icon on the touch screen and it shows the image of the camera then goes back to default screen, not the camera menu.

I go to windows, scroll down to camera click it it shows the camera image then back to default screen, not the camera menu.

Basically I must reboot once maybe two times in order to actually use the camera, again waiting the 2-3 minutes each time I re-boot until the phone fully starts up.

Any suggestions?

[XPERIA X2 General] emergency-exit:
same with me but with little luck, mine have pop up windows said 'there's an application runing, close before use camera'. ususally I close beejiveIM if I use it(still not close opera and resco explorer runing background) and the camera works.

my conclusion Beejive is crash with camera. so I use palringo, the camera doesnt show error message like that when I use palringo. but lately the camera shows error again with palringo, opera and resco explorer!

what an annoying and selfish camera!

any sugestion or cab-fix or some reg edit clue?
