Any type of help would be appreciated
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
can you access the device through ADB? you could try rebooting it straight recovery via adb if so. though it seems like your bootloader is hosed so not sure it would help getting to recovery. also you could try pushing a PC36IMG.zip to the root of your sd card via adb and seeing if it will install the bootloader again.

lastly have you tried runnig the RUU again? does it give you an error or will it run?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
wow, is this actually the first software bricked evo??

Can we run RUU's for the evo from a pc like we did on the Hero? I'm only aware of running them from the sdcard, although I guess there's not much difference in the two. Come to think of it the Hero was in the OS when we started the ruu...

Damn that bloes man :(

Like omegasun said, try putting a pc36img.zip on your sdcard and try booting into bootloader, maybe the gods will smile and it will catch the zip and reinstall your bootloader..

i have another problem my evo is not charging at all i could get my dads evo and change the battery with his evo what should i do ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tws101:
Fix the first issue first by using another batter and see if that resolves the charging issue. If it does not resolve the issue the EVO may be hossed.
[Off-topic] TodStarrr:
Was reviewing some of things that I heard about the HTC’s London Launch event they had yesterday and along with the official announcement of the Desire HD and Desire Z I found something that really got me excited. I know it’s not a huge deal, and I’m not sure why but I absolutely HATE having to wait for my mobile google maps to load. HTC has solved all my problems with their upgraded Sense that requires almost no load time for maps. The app ties in with the phone’s digital compass to rotate the map with you, which is awesome. HTC has gone way up in my books.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgXvibe:
A lot of times lately I'm losing my 3g Mobile Network, my signal strength will be a full 4 bars and I still get the issue. Usually if I reboot the phone it will come back. I'm starting to think it gets lost after it connects to WiFi and then when I disconnect WiFi. Anyone having this issue? If so, are there any tricks to getting this to stop?

My phone is completely stock 2.2, no root.

I'm not sure which of these events may have triggered my intermittent lack of 3G connectability but these are the only changes I've made since this started happening:

1) Upgraded to Froyo.

2) Performed the .dun trick to allow 3g Hotspot. (Although I never use it, I tested it a few times but this problem happens without the Hotspot turned on.)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihneagabriel:
Did you do a factory reset after the froyo update?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgXvibe:
Nope, I used the SD card method before I got the OTA. Have never done a factory reset.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] token419:
I have this as well, be it im on a different carrier (Cricket) but it appears in all stock htc froyo builds.

My assumption is that is the radio being used. of how HTC's implementation of Froyo interacts with the radio.

I switched radio's and havent had it occur on me while in the OS yet, and it does occur sometimes on boot still, but if it loads on boot it seems to stay up and stable.

My trick is to turn airplane mode on for about 30 seconds (30 seconds after i see the airplane icon), then turn it off, i assume this reloads the radio, when the brings 3g back.

I can also read my nv settings with qpst and reflash them back to the phone with no changes, which causes the radio to reload as well, and 3g ALWAYS kicks back on.

Also updating the PRL (even if its the same PRL) seems to work as well (assuming this is due to the reboot, which reloaded the radio)

The radio i am using now is:

2.15.00.09.01 - Seems pretty stable, except the occasional one of at boot, which is fixed by airplane on/off.

From what i can gather this nothing to do with custom roms, as many offical Verizon customers on Official NON Rooted 100% completely stock phones have this as well.

Hopefully HTC/Verizon will fix this in a MR update.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgXvibe:
I'm gonna try that next time it happens. Easier than rebooting, then it wont bother me too much.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeymop:
I had that problem once, and never saw it again.

One problem that just happened for a second time today is I cannot send or recieve MMS. HTC had me reboot the phone and call VZW support, of course they yelled at me for not using a task killer -.-

The reset worked, but I'm going to get annoyed if this becomes a regular problem
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solomente:
I have same setup and same issue. As soon as I made the EPST changes for tethering and hotspot, I started having this issue where I'd lose my data connection completely after disconnecting from my wifi when I leave my house. A reboot of the phone fixes it but it's still kind of annoying. It happens I'd say about twice a week.
[Captivate General] bparkerson04:
Title - meant to say randomly lose service and have to reboot

I have only had this happen about 3 times since owning the phone (since two weeks after launch). Occasionally, my phone will altogether lose service and display the blue circle with a slash through it, and I have to reboot the phone to regain service. This happens in an area where I have signal usually, when this happens. Does anyone else have this issue?
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
I had a problem similar to this last night/this morning. I didn't make any changes/mods to the phone either...

Phone was on the charger last night and when I woke up this morning I noticed I didn't have any emails. I still had the 3G icon and 2 signal bars, but anything I would try to do using internet connectivity wouldn't work (checking mail, navigating to google.com, etc.). I just shrugged it off since this has been the first time it happened.

For what it's worth, I'm running JF6 with UnleashTheBeast and the circle battery meter thing...
[Captivate General] fshalor:
RE: Network loss, etc.

I've had issues like this from day one. From my testing, it seems to be related to the radios. (Both wifi and 3g.)

Stock was horrid for me, but then again, I live/work in a place with really crappy radio reception. It was tough to tell if the 3g or voice network service losses were just "the location" or something with the phone. But the fact that it's doing it with WIFI when I'm 3 feet from my AP, and no other devices are having issues is telling. Things have stabilized a bit with one of the SRE 1.2 OC builds.

That, and I'm now having intermittent sound issues too. (Can't play ringtones for a few minutes, then I can, then I can't, etc. )

I'm actually starting to suspect it's relating to the blocking filesystem lag. Almost as if some app is just killing the FS. I'll keep investigating. But it's good to know I'm not the only user who is seing service drops in strange ways.
[Captivate General] blackviper71:
I'm having similar issues with data connection, and i'm completely stock at the moment. My coverage is great so it just doesn't make sense.
[Captivate General] bparkerson04:
Yeah, it's completely random when it happens, and it has happened two out of three times in an area where I have service...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Idan73:
funny when i read this. week old news with direct impact for us and a clear message. "we will never properly support our products after sale has been made"

samsung_announces_new_high-performance_nand_memory

same old samsung. make advances on a hardware front and current users of your old nand memory solution a.k.a. Galaxy S ... hope to fade into the past with its stepbrother i8910.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sturmeh:
Lag has to do with the filesystem used to store apps, not slow hardware.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Idan73:
not so sure. read carefully them admitting that older generation has issues with read and write at the same time.

"Previously the e-MMC 4.4 interface has offered designers the flexibility of partitioning storage, such as using the single-level cell (SLC) area for high speed operations and the multi-level cell (MLC) area for high density data storage. Now, the new chips (adhering to the new e-MMC 4.41 interface standard) provide a significantly upgraded user experience, with a high priority interrupt (HPI) and improved background operation features.

Embracing the new standardized features, the latest Samsung moviNAND chips enable more efficient processing of orders. If the host wants to execute an application or read data while the e-MMC device is writing data, the host can send an HPI command to the device so that the device stops previous writing to respond to the newest command. Using this feature, the host can receive the device's response without any latency.

Also, when the Samsung embedded memory is not in operation, the host can command it to utilize the free time for background operations such as garbage compaction, so that the embedded memory can reduce the write latency."

by telling us what the new chip can do it also reveals what the older one can not.

lagfixes do help somewhat (with the benchmarks and in real life for the first few days then lag starts popping out again) but im sure samsung chose rfs for a reason whatever that may be and after 2 bricks im not discounting that lagfix had no part in it. all i know now is that im on a third phone, avoiding froyo and lafixes till the torrent of brick posts wanes down. my third phone running fine after multiple flashes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
You are making assumptions. Samsung are only starting to produce 16GB chips this month. Are you saying Samsung should have delayed product launch for 3 months? I don't know what kind of tech company you are running, but you are mad if you think that delaying products for every hardware change possibly will allow your company to survive.

Also, an improvement to writing speeds doesn't mean the old ones were bad. It simply means the new ones are better.. The only real change is the possibility to interrupt writes, and we don't know how long it takes to write a block of data (maybe not enough to present any benefit except realtime operations).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] abbas:
I agree entirely. Improvement make things better, not the previous ones bad. If you wish to wait for such a time that gadgets will not get better before buying, then you will NEVER buy.

Galaxy S is a great phone. Its screen makes the screen of my HD2 look defective!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
well the original lag fix has worked for me on two phones and it does not start coming back as long as you keep memory free.. (the fix that moves /data/data to dbdata...

you need to keep an eye on free size but i have no issue with 100 apps installed
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogen:
The lag is caused by the bad choise of file system. They use RFS and thats why it lags. Henche why the lag fix moves the data to a ext2 partition. The amazing thing is why sammy didnt do this in the first place. But i guess thaysen part of the charm in droids.. you get to fix things your self. Maybe even learn some.. i was a complete linux ignorant before, but now sgs tought me at least the way around its core fine system.

When I click on my freshly downloaded SNESoid apparently it ask me to which ROM I want to download the games(I guess?) To? What do I do? I'm a decently experienced android user(1yr) but never used a game emulater. Please enlighten me and help.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] BTownTKD:
Game Emulators require ROMs - digital images of the original game cartridge - in order to play the game. When the emulator asks you to pick a ROM, it's the same as inserting the game cartridge into the system!

If you're down with the whole "torrent" scene, just type "SNES ROMs" into your favorite torrent search engine; you'll find gigabytes worth of SNES games. Keep in mind that, legally, you are supposed to *own* the original game to legally play the ROM on an emulator. I doubt many people pay that any heed, however.

Once you've downloaded all the ROMs you desire, just copy them into a folder on your SDCard, and navigate there from the SNESoid menu.

i am not sure exactly what you mean. are you using the default sense lockscreen? are you talking about the bar graphic for it? are you using a different lock screen like the default android or the rotary?

if you are talking about the sense lockscreen itself and the little dots on the graphic bar there is no setting to change it. you could however replace the graphic with one of your own if you know how to theme and use photoshop pretty well. not sure it would be worth the time personally but maybe you believe if there are 4 dots an evil leprechaun will come out of your phone and cause a chain of reactions to destroy the world or something

Hi,

I had this working earlier and all of a sudden it has stopped. I am able to connect to my Evo but once connected, I am not given access to the Internet. I have no clue why. Once I go back to my home wireless network, the Internet works just fine.

I am using the newest version of the wireless tether software and am using Fresh-evo-3.2.0.0. I am also using Widows 7 x64. It is set up as my home network to allow access as well. Cannot figure out what is going on. Seems like something is blocking it.

Will be back online in the am to check for replies and to answer any questions if need be so please do not think I am ignoring anyone that may reply to this tonight.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
