mann u too???? mine gets hot and goes into random reboot mode when i clock it to 1.2 on kingklick's kernel and on JAC's kernel...on voodoo beta4, it forcecloses when i try to clock to 1.2 in setCPU.

I have corrupted my boot.img and thereby (semi-) bricked my device.

I'm posting this topic to try to get an image of Build 79558, or some information on acquiring such an image so that I can flash it and thereby be able to boot to the OS. Is there any FTP site, download or Dell PC Suite version that might contain such an image for this USA Beta device?

Any help?
[Droid X General] imotox:
Ok, here's my story.

I currently have a HTC Droid Eris and I am in the need of a new phone. Other people with other Verizon phones get better service up here than I do, the GPS doesn't work, and my phone has broken 5 times with me getting the same replacement phone each time.

I've been researching the Droid X and I've really liked how responsive it was and how it didn't freeze up when switching screens and such. I know that the Droid (the first one) has a good signal up here because my parents had full bars when they came to visit me.

Ideas?
[Droid X General] bcpk:
Buy a Droid 1 for half the price?
[Droid X General] imotox:
They told me that they don't sell the Droid 1 anymore and I don't want to buy a used one. They offered me a refurbished HTC Diamond for $250 or so which I think is total ****.
[Droid X General] david.robinson78:
U should add a line. U pay a lil more monthly but u get the phone for 200
[Droid X General] giventofly17:
I always think it's worth it just to shell out the money to buy the phone full price. That way you don't have to worry about a contract, and worst case you always have the option to sell the phone if you needed money/moved/change carriers, and you'd recoup a decent amount of it because you wouldn't have an early termination fee.

The X is a huge step of from the Eris, I'd say go for it.
[Droid X General] curney:
Agreed
[Droid X General] Casshern:
Go for it. I stand by this phone completely. It's my favourite of the current gen smart phones.

I say go for a droid incredible not as big a screen but a better phone and this is coming from someone that is carrying a DX
[Droid X General] irod87:
Having the droid X and coming from the eris I would 100% say that it would have been worth it to pay full retail. I added a line so that I could pay 200 now. In the end I will wind up paying full retail but not such an upfront hit.
[Droid X General] lu270bro:
Get the HTC Incredible. I have the droid x and after all the bs moto has pulled with their handsets released after the OG Droid, if I had known then what I know now I would have gotten the DINC. Of course my opinion is based purely on the ability to hack and customize. For someone wanting an " out of the box" non hackable phone the droid x would be a good choice.

[G1 General] jinxie:
Hi guys!

I had (well stiill have it somewhere) an old HTC wizard and i loved it, XDAdevs helped me a lot with it but well, i needed and upgrade so I bought a Nokia 5800XM. Im happy with it, but now I have the opportunity to change it for an HTC dream, and Id really like to go back to HTC and I dont like symbian very much, Id like to give droid a try.

Yes, I did use the search, i thought there would be some thread like this (since they are similar devices and were released very close) but I couldnt find any.

So, I did comparisons between their specs, and for what i see, the main differences are, dream has qwerty keyboard (big plus, i dont like touch keyboards), capacitive screen (so i guess it means multitouch, vs 5800s resistive), 500something mhz and 192mb ram (5800= 128 ram 400something processor, not big difference but it is something) and hmmm, dont know i got lost.

The 5800 is a bit smaller, has a better screen (360x640 16M, vs Dreams 320x480 65K), FM radio, 3.5 jack (i dont know what kind of plug the dream uses, i would like to know please), TV out, more battery time, better camera (carl zeiss, flash (i use it as a flashlight and works really good), and secondary camera for videocall).. and i think thats it.

Now, you guys, as users, what would you recommend? well if im asking here i guess most of you would go for the dream, but please, tell me ANYTHING, EVERYTHING i should know before making the swap..

is accelerometer good? is GPS good? (my 5800 works fine, but it takes 10 minutes to find satellites so it makes it kind of useless for short trips through the city, it might be because im in Argentina tho)

what about music/video playback? build quality?

If you think i forgot something, or that there is anything i should know before going through with the swap, please let me know! also when im doing the exchange if i decide to go through with it, what should i check is ok and test so i dont get scammed with a broken device?

Sorry if its too long, hope you read it, and that you would help me! Im counting on you guys :)

Thanks!
[G1 General] lbcoder:
You can have the most advanced hardware in the world, but with crap software, it is still junk. Dream is BY FAR the superior.

Commented inline:

Capacitive does NOT mean "multitouch". It means it has a HARD surface designed for use with your fingers. Resistive is a SOFT surface requiring (for proper use) a stylus.

There is no fm radio, the 3.5 headphone jack is available if you buy a converter from HTC's weird almost-USB plug, there is no tv out (can't think of a single reason you'd want this....), all phone cameras suck -- **ALL**.

Yes.

The GPS is good... if you do NOT have a DATA NETWORK CONNECTION, it can take a while to connect. WITH a data network connection, you get assisted GPS and very fast locks.

Hardware accelerated.

Haven't broken mine yet in near 2 years, so must be ok....

Make sure it turns on and boots up. If it gets stuck rather than booting up, then it could have been bricked. Some people will do stupid things, like installing 1.33.2005 SPL and end up with a non-functional device.
[G1 General] jinxie:
thank you! thats all im looking for, some reassurement :)

heh yeah i know, i mean some device specific stuff like.. with my old wizard, the miniUSB soldering was very weak, and also the buttons..

true.

but with a capacitive multitouch can be achieved by software, whilst imposible with a resistive.. or well thats my guessing :p Dream is multitouch right?

yeah i already have those converters in my wishlist, but i think that it will come with one. TV out is not of great use thats true, but it is a cool feature to display pictures and videos taken with the device, and also you can watch a movie or something (not the best quality but can be handy at times).

Yeah, all phone cameras suck, but I like to capture the moment and upload it on facebook to share with friends, and even if the quality is not the best, you can at least distinguish whats happening in the picture, even in clubs at night. also the app to use the flash leds as a flashlight is really usefull, but well i guess i could use a white screen app for that.

thats really good to hear!

Again, thanks a lot!
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Incorrect on all accounts.

Dream is NOT multitouch -- not really, except with some nutty hacks that *kinda* work.

And your idea about multitouch being impossible with resistive... well my ASUS T91MT tablet/netbook would disagree with you. It has a resistive multitouch panel.

Highly unlikely that it will "come with" one. They did NOT ship with those converters from the factory, and not many people bother with them.... you know, with wired headsets being totally obsolete in favor of bluetooth.

The camera works not too bad all things considered. I caught some pictures of a fox snooping around my house a few months ago, turned out nice, but taken outdoors in daylight. LED flashes don't work well -- they just don't give you the same kind of output that a proper flash will, so trying to use it in a dark and psychedelic place won't be yielding very good of results.

Just turning the display ON in a pinch works OK. I wired up a circuit breaker panel that way once.... however, if you want a flashlight, you should probably buy a flashlight.
[G1 General] jinxie:
I got it all wrong then :$

yeah but i think the guy has one.. bt headsets are expensive here in the 3rd world...

should be enough then :)

yeah but i wont be carrying a flashlight with me all the time lol :p

Thanks!
[G1 General] lbcoder:
You should pick up a keyring flashlight like this:

[G1 General] CrusaderNN:
Just some words upon the topic: HTC Dream last official firmware is Android 1.6 Donut - it has no multitouch feature. But you can quite easily install Android 2.2 Froyo (CyanogenMOD e.g.) - it has such functionality. As the example, i can say that while navigating through picture gallery you can zoom in and out the image with two fingers movement - and it really works...

GPS: it takes one or two minutes outdoors to catch the satellites without AGPS.

Audioconverter HTC ExtUSB -> 3,5 audiojack costs $5 at ebay.com (item id 335ea04db3 e.g., sorry, no link due to new users policy of xda forum).
[G1 General] jinxie:
thanks for replying, i already have my dream!

if a "normal" person asked me what i would recommend, i would suggest they get the 5800.

me? im happy with my g1, i just need to find the right rom for me and also a high capacity non-extended battery. im getting one of those adapters this weekend
[G1 General] droidsmith:
Hi jinxie

Have you got your new battery? seems like the 1700mAh battery is the largest that conforms to the original form factor.

For myself, I'm thinking of going with a remote that has a 3.5mm headphone port, probably HTC RC E100, instead of one of those multi port USB adapters.

I'm curious to know which ROM you went with?
[G1 General] jinxie:
hey!

i am just ordering the battery right now.. but intl delivery sucks big time for latin america.. so I will tell you in a month lol

about the adapter, i wanted it because the guy who i made the trade with forgot to give me the headphones that come with the device, but now i have them, and i must say im impressed, despite the looks they fit really well (and thats an issue for me, headphones often fall from my ears, but not these), and sound quality is great, even music with heavy bass sounds good, so i think im gonna stick with these for a while..

and about the rom, im open to suggestions, havent found what im looking for yet, CM6 didnt work for me, im currently using biffmod but not happy with it neither, i wanted to try superF, but im not sure if all the issues it had are fixed yet, also i was waiting for the OTA release, so there must be some new stuff now, but actually what i was really looking for was an equivalent for the dream of the milestone's eclairless, i want the most RAM available i can get without the hack (im rethinking that), im really sick of FCs.

i might flash something today as i came to XDA today to look for a ROM, hope i find sth interesting.. what are you using?
[G1 General] droidsmith:
I broke my last dream going from CM6.0.0 to biff's. I did manage to get another second hand dream, in good condition, of craig's list and i'm going to chill on rooting for now.

So, did you order a battery that requires a special back cover? For myself, I ordered the 1700mAh battery, just because I really like my case and I wouldn't be able to use my case with one of the super sized batteries that change the form factor.

I really miss having the music controls on the lockscreen and I can't seem to get that feature,at least for free, on cupcake with the stock music app, so I ordered a remote with headphones because, the stock HTC headphones, though sound awesome but are too big for my ears, and keep falling out. With this remote, since it has a 3.5mm jack, I should be able to use my favorite earbuds from sony, that is if I don't like the ones that come with my order.

I attached a picture of the remote / headphones

The most annoying thing I'm finding, is only having sixty megs or so, for apps, and not being able to remove the stock stuff included that I don't use, like Quickoffice, and such.
[G1 General] jinxie:
yeah i saw that remote, looks cool, but i heard that it might not work depending on the rom youre using.. or sth like that, look it up here in the accesories forum..

how did you "break" it? didnt you just brick it? im sure theres some way to recover it.. but tell me how you did it because i dont want to do the same.

still havent flashed anything new yet, since with the low bat life i get im not using the phone that much, but i might try the new cyanogen 6.1.. but im not sure yet..

btw yes i also ordered the 1700mah, the pohne is big and heavy as it is, with an extended battery i might aswell buy a netbook :/

chences are that you will get your bat way before i get mine, so tell me how much more juice you get from it!

edit: so finally today i flashed chromatic 3.9.1.1 (eclair)

so far so good, very fast, i changed adw launcher for launcher pro, now i want to remove all the extra stuff i dont need/use. then lets see how it goes with all my apps loaded, lets give it a few days
[G1 General] droidsmith:
here's my post from the CM forum: regarding my broken Dream. I believe there is a JTAG solution, but I figured just get another used for cheap instead of taking the nonbooting dream apart, buying the necessary equipment, learning how to fix it, or getting someone else to, etc. now I'm using it as an extra charger.

The remote I order wasn't the one I really wanted, but it's coming with the earbuds I prefer, instead of the stock ones that are way too big for my ears.

If I still have this phone, I might get one of the 2850mAh batteries just to see if I can get a full days use on a single charge. But I'm thinking of getting a HTC Desire Z from bell off contract, and using it with rogers.
[Hero CDMA General] vnx:
Hey guys, I tried searching for this but couldn't find it. I'm looking for the AOSP keyboard that can be found in the CM6 roms. I'm sure there is a way to pull it from there but I'm just a noob. Any help would be great! Thanks.
[Hero CDMA General] ASimmons:
here you go just install with a file manager, can't guarantee it works on your rom though.
[Hero CDMA General] vnx:
It doesn't seem like it works. I'm running NFX 2.2.1 rom by the way.
[Hero CDMA General] ASimmons:
well thats a sense rom so I dont think it will search the threads to see if theres a ported version.
[Hero CDMA General] chromiumleaf:
Here you go. Has Voice enabled. Should work in Sense ROMs because I'm running nfinitefx's Stock ROM and it works for me there. Just flash this from recovery.

i downloaded new build on my HD2 and it is pure beautiful but the phone gives off the robotic sound... can anyone assist me with this glich::(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mastajest:
Usually, that problem has to do with your radio. Flash another radio. I've never had that problem with 2.12.50.02, or the new 2.14.50.04

And can you guys stick to the Android General forum or the thread that pertains to whatever build you're using. Don't start a whole new thread.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
That is probably your ROM, I had that when I first bought my HD2. Flashed a android compatible ROM and it went away.

If anyone needs a stock nandroid image (with root),

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YWQJRO90

There is no need to flash this unless you messed up or just want to go back to stock (with root).

instructions:

DO NOT install it as update.zip . you are supposed to unzip the file after you download it and place the folder called 2010-09-21.18.31.12 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup then you boot into cwm and goto backup and restore -> restore -> 2010-09-21.18.31.12
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
what is this nandroid ? stock image ? i mean im new to android and i keep seeing nandroid but im not sure what it does
[Fascinate Android Development] bubbleywine:
+1 thanks easier then using oden
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
Nandroid makes a complete backup of your phone, all your data, apps, everything. It's like it takes a snapshot of your phone, and when you restore it your phone will be back to the exact state of when you made the backup.

The image i posted will take your phone back to what it was like when you pulled it out of the package, except with root. In order to use nandroid, you have to flash the cwm kernel and install the recovery for your phone through rom manager.
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
no problem, yeah i dont like using odin.
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
so that means if i accidently erased swype i'd have it back again with this one?
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
yes it has everything you would have stock. just rooted already.
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
sorry for all the question so ok then after that to get all my stuff back would i use titanium for my apps contacts etc?
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
yeah, you will have to put the information for your gmail account back in, restore anything from titanium. It's completely stock, it has no user infomation on it.
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
titanium does backup contacts to though im thinking
[Fascinate Android Development] ksizzle9:
once u sync your gmail u shouldnt have to worry about your contacts, that takes care of all of it.
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
yea but i disabled google sync because it kept putting contacts from my old phone in that i didnt want and i cant figure out how to change it online

Is this with todays update?
[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
ok well i tried to flash this with clockwork butttttttttttt it just freezes no luck ..what am i doing wrong
[Fascinate Android Development] bendbowden:
Ok, so I am getting my Fascinate tomorrow (can't wait by the way). I have been cruising the forums doing my research before I attempt to root, flash CWM recovery, etc. I am completely unfamiliar with with using Odin, but have used nandroid via Amon's recovery on my Droid Eris (which is running Froyo by the way).

Here's my question: how do I apply this image? Do I have to be rooted first, or can I go ahead and apply this zip and never have to fool with Oden? I just want to be sure I don't make a mistake. Eris development was firmly established by the time I arrived on the scene, so I have not had to worry about these kinds of things. Sorry if this seems like a noob question? :)
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
nope, the update is not compatible with root right now. Wait for a dev to release the root friendly vzw update.

Everyone is a noob at first. :)

You need to root first

follow this:

http://forum.androidcentral.com/fasc...-how-root.html

then install cwmrecovery

follow this:

[Fascinate Android Development] dialect129:
this doesnt seem to work

wait it works i had to upzip your file and put it in the folder for the images along with the other back ups then go into rom manager and manage back ups .. :) thanks i finally have SWYPE BACK!!..yes i did all that for swype lol
[Fascinate Android Development] wasupwithuman:
