I was thinking that too, but is a dead pixel and dust covered by warranty?

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G General] gu3r0:
No they didn't give me anything physically about being on an exchange list. When I got the 2nd phone it took a week to get it in and everything was fine. So I figured I could trust them. Jokes on me. Seriously considering dropping it all together and going for an HSPA+ device...
[EVO 4G General] backdown:
It should be. I was just stating that Best Buy doesn't have to do anything for him, even though someone promised him they would. Go to sprint and show them, they might be able to do something. If they don't/can't, you would have to call HTC.
[EVO 4G General] gu3r0:
Sprint sends me to best buy, best buy sends me to a random a** list, and HTC wants me to go phoneless for 2 weeks while they "look" at my device. :eek:
[EVO 4G General] backdown:
Well yeah..you will have to wait some time to get the phone back. They probably get a ton of devices in a day, and more than likely backed up like crazy. Just get it replaced, and if you choose so sell it.
[EVO 4G General] illogic6:
My phone has a dead pixel. That's the only thing wrong with it and I find it to be tolerable. *shrug*

Dust under the screen would drive me nuts though.
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
..........

totally misread that. Calmly explain the situation to Sprint CS, if it's an outsourced call hang up and call back till you get someone who understands you (*read below). If explaining your situation to someone gets you nowhere ask how much the etf is.. try your luck with retentions.

*I mean no offense to anyone who work in Sprint's outsourced call centers. It's just very frustrating when people who represent a company that you give a lot of your money to don't understand what you are trying to say to them.

This was my last experience with Sprint's outsourced CS: I was trying to get my upgrade date moved ONE DAY early so I could make my purchase at BB while I was there instead of having to drive back the next day. I had one upgrade, was opening a line and had another upgrade that would be good the following day. I was trying to get them to honor the one upgrade that was less than 12 hours from eligibility and the guy actually said to me (I'm not making this up) the best he could do was if I paid FULL PRICE for all 3 phones then he could credit my account on the next billing cycle!!! Seriously??!!?!?!?!?!? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I gave up after about 10 minutes of asking him to clarify what he was offering me. I pay almost a grand tonight and you say you'll give it back to me next month??

I went back the next day..
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
This may seem odd, but try posting your story on the BestBuy customer service forum, in the Manufacturer Warranties and Protection Plans section. Apparently those get looked at, and posters are contacted by by a special team they have there. At the very least, they should be able to exchange it for you.
[EVO 4G General] tonyh703:
sounds like a good idea. I would exhaust all possible warranty routes before looking at 'what you can do' or 'switching to an hpsa device'. talk to a manager in the store. If you have nothing to show them, or can only say "this guy told me this" then you may be SOL @ BB unless the method above works. Take it to a sprint store, its still their device they should be able to look at it. did you get insurance? thats a 7$ investment every evo owner should have
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Check your receipt... there should be something there about a survey, while filling it out you can request that a bby associate (more like a sup) calls you to fix the issue. The other option is to call 1888BESTBUY and request to speak with the customer relations department. GL

I'm not 100% sure if this is malicious or not, so please proceed with caution. It seems to have some kind of legitimate online/network function, and it actually plays pretty faithful to the original game.

Here's a link to the blog where it seems to have been originally released: http://pvz.lzn1007.blog.sohu.com/

I've attached the english apk for the daring.

Mods please let me know if this is too warez-y. I'll remove without hesitation.

EDIT: pvzz.apk attached below is the same thing except edited to display "Plants vs. Zombies Port" rather than Chinese charaters in the launcher. Thanks baksmali!

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Android 17:
So, OP you've actually played this a good bit? Nothing ****ing up on your phone yet? Lol.

I love Plants vs Zombies, so this would be awesome to play, but it sounds pretty shady....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] illogic6:
I played it. It's still installed and my phone isn't ablaze yet. I've noticed a couple bugs so far. One of the plants just refused to 'plant' on the playing field... other than that I'm fairly impressed.

About a year ago I had a call to Singapore on my bill that I *for sure* never made and I'm pretty sure it was the result of some shady app I installed on my Hero. So I would recommend caution in this situation.

Perhaps someone with a little more know-how could take a look and see if there's anything to worry about.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fr4nk1yn:
Played until it FC'd. It takes two presses to plant.

Nice find.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
super slow and choppy big time....

doesnt have "story mode"

just basically the challenge mode if you want to call it that where you pick all the plants you want for the round and the zombies start coming.

looks like someone rewrote the game, and didnt just port it over. like THEY redid all the graphics, etc etc.

good job, but has a long way to go.

but might be enough to tide some over until the real deal comes along, when ever the hell popcap decides to get onboard with android.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] illogic6:
As long as you don't give it root permissions, which it hasn't asked for, I don't think it can do anything too damaging.

I just made it to wave 5 before the zombie on some kind of lawnmower looking thing pwned me. If anyone knows how to get the plant with a gun for a mouth to plant, let me know.

Another thing I noticed is this clearly gives you too many suns. I had like 700 when I died... couldn't plant stuff fast enough to use them all.

[HD2 General] jazzyken:
hi

couple days ago touch screen sense wasnt working so i am returning my phone

and getting a new device.

when i first had hd2 spl was 2.10 or something so i downgrade to 2.08 to use custom rom.

since i am sending my broken device back to t-mobile i changed to 2.08 from hspl.

is it gonna be a problem if they found out my broken phone has spl 2.08 not 2.10?

please help!

because i dont want to get charged over different spl version =(
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
It should be fine. As long as there is no HSPL, you can just deny whatever they throw at you. If they claimed you've changed the HSPL, play the stupid-card and ask them what that is.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxearner:
I tried searching for a while and couldn't find an answer, but because I like trying different roms one of the more frustrating items is losing messages and voicemails.

If I am using titanium backup, what should I be backing up? I tried backing up the voicemail, sms, accounts system setting but that did not work.

Alternatively, is there a way to have voicemail app to scan undeleted voicemails on my account.

For the record, the roms I am using is EVOi and Fresh.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScaryBugThing:
I don't know the answer to this, but was just searching myself to try to find out. I lost all my VMs when I first wiped/rooted, and I won't wipe again until I can save and restore them.

If anyone has an answer, I'd also be grateful.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScaryBugThing:
Sorry to bump again. I don't mean to sound demanding, but I can't believe nobody has any answer for this. Losing all your visual voicemail files seems like a big thing.

Is this really an unsolved problem? Can someone at least confirm that?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trident:
I've been searching to find out about this myself.

Usually, I don't have that many and I just write them down and figure they're lost.

But I've got a bunch right now and I'd like to keep them.

We have a method to backup apps- there must be a way to save these vms that I know are stored on the EVO somewhere. I remember seeing them when I was browsing for something else one day, but for the life of me, I can't find them. And there has to be a file somewhere that would allow them to show up in the VM list after a ROM flash. It just can't be that difficult.

Can it?

I have literally camped-out on this forum for approximately two weeks now and have been unable to see anything clearly setting-out an answer that meets my needs!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilco:
If you have spent two weeks reading on the forum.....

A short search gave me this discussion, dated 5 days ago, quite active...

First you should answer following questions:

Why do you want to run only android?

What is the problem going through winmo for android?

To answer your question:

For the moment (and probably for ever) it is not posible to run android from ROM. This is due to problems with accessing the NAND. As long as that problem is not solved, it will not be possible.

If running only android is so important, youshould start looking to replace your HD2 for an Android model.

I am sorry, but your answer is not so hard to find. So lying about the amount of time spent on searching for this subject on the forum. (especially because this question has been asked and ansewred so many times.) will not help. On the other hand, if you really spent two weeks searching the forum for an answer to your question, I wonder if you understand/know what you are doing. Either way (lying or clueless) I believe trading your TMOUS HD2 for an Android machine is for you the way to go.

If this does not answer your question, then be more specific.

Maybe what I am trying to do hasn't been attempted before but I'm stuck and hopefully, someone here is talented enough to help.

I am trying to change the background color of the LauncherProPlus widgets. It is clearly not an image in the res folder and I have been scouring the XML's to see what is driving the color to no avail. Does anyone know where I might have missed or where else to look? I'm thinking maybe I need to start looking through the smali files but would love if someone could provide a little direction.

Thanks.
[Android Themes] goldenstorm:
This link may help you get in the right direction :)
[Android Themes] okolowicz:
I am familiar with Benny879 as well as that thread and he hasn't been able to find what controls the background either. He posted that theme on the LauncherPro forums and I installed it optimistic that the background would be black but it is not the case. The image on his sight is a bit deceiving due to the background color but is actually a gray gradient.

So, I'm still searching...
[Android Themes] goldenstorm:
My bad, misunderstood, I was wondering how to make it a different shade of transparent myself, so I guess we are after the same thing. let you know if I find anything :)

[Android Themes] signals23:
Yup, that's it. Make sure you decompile with Brut's apktool.
[Android Themes] okolowicz:
Awesome! Thanks to both of you. I had started to go through the smali files last night after having tried every remotely relevant XML.

I'll give it a shot this morning and post back my results. I haven't used Brut's APKTool but use APKManager which I believe is simply a script that utilizes the APKTool.
[Android Themes] okolowicz:
Actually, I take it back. It appears Signals23 has already accomplished and made available everything I was trying to do which was to make the background black.

So, I'll simply say thank you again, install his masterpiece, and pretend I'm the man.
[Android Themes] signals23:
You can be the man too. :)

In my last theme of the LP0.7.7.2, I added a png to the background, that way you have control over the whole thing. If you want to mess with that, let me know and I'll post instructions.

[HTC Aria General] duckredbeard:
I am interested in doing the apps2sd thing, but I am having a hard time finding all the info I need in one place. I am finding parts of several methods and I can't see what goes with what and in what order. I am rooted and running Liberated R003 with the additional zip for sideloading. I was able to find great instructions for those procedures.

Is there a post anywhere that has a complete step by step procedure for (nervous but willing) noobs? I am hoping for a link to whatever drivers and zips needed for this. I am not having luck finding an ADB driver for windows and aria (do I even need those?).

Not expecting to be spoon fed, I just want to have a complete step by step that makes no assumptions about knowledge of terminals and command lines.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I am trin to use one click root and I can not get my vibrant to go into recovery mode..I tried holding the volume and power buttuns down but doesn't work..Can anyone help me please???
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geocepe:
You can try this

Samsung Vibrant Download Mode

Method 1 (without ADB):

1. Take out battery, put it back in. (to turn the phone fully off)

2. Don't turn it the phone on!

3. Plug the phone into your PC, do not hit the power button!

4. See if the phone shows anything on the screen (screen turns on when plugged in) EX: Shows a battery, shows error messages if bricked, etc. Shows anything.

IF the phone screen does 'turn on' after being plugged in without you hitting the power button, so far so good.

5. Now while it's on like this, hold both the volume up and volume down buttons.

6. Hold the power button as well as the volume buttons until the screen goes black.

7. As soon as the screen goes black, let go of the power button! But DON'T let go of the volume buttons!

This is how I got into download mode to fix my 'odd' brick.

This is from another person on the forum.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
If you're referring to the One Click Root application in this thread...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739300

Be sure that you follow the instructions. The very first instruction is critical...

1. Make sure your phone is on USB Debug mode: (MENU > Settings > Applications > Developement > USB debugging = Checked )

Assuming your usb drivers are installed correctly and your phone is in debug mode, the phone should boot into recovery mode automatically, allowing you to proceed. Just follow the instructions in the CMD shell window that pops up.

If the phone is in USB Debug mode and it's not rebooting into recovery, you likely have driver issues with the Samsung USB drivers...

CPLD-10 is the MyTouch 3G / Magic 32B. Flashing the new radio and SPL will most likely brick your phone.

Pretty sure :)

From what I've gathered on this forum, CPLD-10 is 32B, CPLD-12 is 32A and CPLD-13 is MyTouch 1.2/Fender. The only other time I saw CPLD-10 and PVT-32A on the same screen was when someone ran a 32A RUU on a 32B with a goldcard in it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] arxlex:
mumilover,

Thanks, but I already have a recovery 1.6.2. And I already maked flash device RCMagic ROM, but after flashing the firmware does not want work sensor, all sensor area decreased by 1/3 of screen.

See screenshots :rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Have you ever used a goldcard before?

Maybe thats why everything is not working correct.

Using what Keinengel sayed, you might have wrong spl/radio combo which again is effecting your system...

If you have used goldcard before, then maybe you should revert back to 32B combo.

Using spl 1.33.2005 and 2.22 radio. Then flashing 32B rom like the CM 6.
