Did you bother to check o see if your 4G keys exist, or not? Did you check to see if you MAC address is messed up? Several great threads here on XDA that go over 4G issues.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sprockethead:
No, actually that didn't occur to me for some reason. I never got my morning coffee I guess, and just freaked out.

Ok, ok. I'll go do my due diligence. Thanks for the advice.

* Pull your battery, write down your MAC address.

Go to a adb shell, assuming you know how.

# adb shell wimax_mtd

** are all your values good (OK,Pass,Match,<correctMAC>,OK)

** See if your MAC from above matches the output (MAC here).

** Start your 4G radio, then run the command below.

# grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Odds are if you get the above two lines at the end of the output from the "grep" command, you are good to go.

If you are in a 4G area, take a look at the log, look for init errors, runtime, etc.

# tail -f /data/wimax/log/*.log

but imma try later when im in 4G
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekigah84:
Then you have officially lost your RSA keys. Did you happen to flash your WIMAX radio?

I lost my RSA keys, I unrooted, and went into a Sprint store yesterday and just told them my 4G isn't working anymore and I did a reset. They will try to fix it and when they can't they will order you a replacement for free. The only time you have to pay $100 is if you bring your phone into them rooted and tell them you messed up your 4G updating your phone. I got my replacement in yesterday. No charge except that damn $7 / month fee.

i know and in jersey city it also shows we have 4g

the thing is since they do not promote that they have it they would not help me

that's basically it as of now

that's what i get from sprint

Hello,

I use adb shell to remove application

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/app/com.amazon.mp3.apk

and some other application but compare with the original storage the free space doesn't change :confused:

Is there something i miss ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Indeed you are missing something :)

Internal storage refers to your /data partition, and you removed something from your /system partition.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surajprakash:
By deleting a system application ie an application which is installed in the /system partition, you will not get extra free space. To get free space either delete normal apps that you have downloaded and installed yourself or move applications to sd using Move2SD Enabler or use Darktremor's Apps2SD .

oh, many thanks friends. I got it now :D

Anyone have experience theming HTC_IME, more specifically the one for the EVO that has the arrows at the bottom?

I've been able to change the color of the keys as these are image resources. I was wondering what files need edited to change the font color for the letters on the keys?

Thanks again.
[HD2 General] itzstevo:
Recently my touch screen does not work once my lockscreen comes on. I can't figure out if it a hardware issue or software issue. If you had similar problem let me know if there a solution to fixing this.

I drop my phone a few months back and crack the bottom of the screen near the end button, so i can't send it in for warranty purpose.

I am having the same problem with one of my HD2's and T-Mobile never got back to me. I contacted HTC and they suggested sending it in for repair.
[Android Software Development] cambunch:
So, everything I flash a new ROM, I have some commands I run via ADB on my laptop that moves some APKs around on the phone as well as pushing some to the phone. I would like to compile these commands into an update.zip file so that I don't have to be near a laptop every time I want to flash a new ROM. I read up on update-script syntax, but I didn't see anything regarding ADB commands. Is it possible to administer ADB commands within update-script syntax? The one I need to use the most is mv, so if there is an alternative to that in the update-script syntax, that would work too.
[Android Software Development] djmcnz:
Well, mv for example is not an ADB command (adb shell mv) it's a shell command. So I think you want to be able to run shell commands from an update/r script?

If that's the case, download my rom and have a look at the build script, it executes a comprehensive shell script which might give you some pointers.
[Android Software Development] cambunch:
Thanks, I will check it out now.
[Android Software Development] jerdog:
Bump...

Care to post the build script instead of us having to download a ROM for it?

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

Well, I simply powered it off after the failure.

Then decided I'd try something else. So powered it back up, and it worked,

as tho nothing wrong had ever happened. I'm stumped! I am afraid to turn it off,

or wonder if I should reboot, and attempt to restore a nandroid.

I have no idea where I should proceed from here.

Any suggestions GREATLY appreciated. :)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aph:
Maybe the fastboot recovery fixed the partitions that were broken. I would still do a nandroid recovery.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaaaas:
i don't think you can fix it thru a nand... but since you have s-off you can find roms that are flashable thru h-boot. at least if it happens again you can go that route. it will probably already be named PCIMG36.zip. just put it on the sdcard and go into bootloader
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTH-EVO:
Thanks to you both for your thoughtful replies. :)

I had a hel-of-a-day today - whew.

It all started with a seemingly simple task of changing the initial boot screen. Who

knew the HTBOOT that Unrevoked supplies with their app wouldn't support:

fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565?

So I simply flashed the HTBOOT with the ENG version of bootloader - no big, right?

HAH! That equates to an HTC-EVO 4G fastboot only phone - who knew?

So I finally get past that, and get to what I had really intended to do -

flash/update my current (basically stock) ROM to the latest OTA's. I noticed there

were several, that simply merged the updates. I chose the least "tweaked" of

them, and went for it. I had no idea it would it would result in yet another

fastboot only phone - yea, I know what yer thinking, but forget it. There were

several other posts in the same thread, with the same prob. ;) But of course,

I knew it wouldn't happen to me. :p

Well, thanks again, and also for your indulgence.

Is anyone else experiencing really poor performance with the Google Wireless tether app? I tried a couple of different versions of the apk from the Google code site (pre8 and pre9) and here in a 4G service area (St. Louis) I was barely getting any throughput at all on my iPad linked to the Evo. The Evo itself using Speed Test was VERY fast, like 3800 down and 980 up.

Just wondered if I was missing a setting, or if there is some nonsense going on.

Yeah, the tower is on campus...the range isn't great. It's right next to the campus police dept. There are towers in Collinsville and Fairview Heights also. The one in Collinsville is just a couple miles south of the 255/Horseshoe Lake Rd intersection (it's probably right there at the 255/55 intersection, but I didn't drive that far). I haven't driven enough around Fairview, but I'm pretty sure it's there off of 64 near IL-159.

I just want to see a big huge tower in Alton, right next to my house...mwahahahhahaha.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arimp:
I've got a TMOUS TP2 which appears to be stuck in a reboot loop of sorts cause I can't charge the battery.

I've read through the forums and I saw a few similar problems like this but it seems like it those they were stuck at the bootloader, and that's not the case for me.

Basically the battery was down to 14% and I turned off the phone last night intending to charge it this morning. Somehow the battery dropped to 1% by the time I went to turn it on this morning, and it shutdown (really just lost power) right after I started it. So I go to plug it into the wall charger and then:

charge light comes on

after a few seconds charge light goes off

the phone tries to boot (does little vibrate, shows splash)

after the splash screen, phone loses power

charge light comes back on

then tries to boot after a few seconds.

repeat

If left unplugged the phone just sits there dead, but upon plugging it in, it tries to boot.

I've seen it where the phone doesn't have enough power to boot and just needs to be charged for a while, but I can't seem to do that here.

Anyone have any idea how to prevent it from trying to boot after the AC adapter is plugged in?

Thanks :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
If you're desperate...you might try doing a hard-reset.

Why would that help? I don't know...except sometimes when really stuck it helps to just change the situation...try something completely different.

Of course, a hard-reset deletes all data and applications that you've put on the phone, which is why I suggested it as a recourse if desperate.

Probably keep the phone plugged in while doing hard-reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nradu:
Same problem, solved by itself

Hi,

I had a similar problem with a standard TP2, it was clear a battery fault. Phone was working well with a new battery and, of course, another working phone couldn't boot up with the faulty battery.

I took out the defective battery and let it aside for almost 2 weeks. After that it started to work, but the capacity is clearly smaller.

So from my experience, a hard reset wouldn't help you.

Radu
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
Yes, it goes without saying -- though it's good you did ;) -- that if you have access to another battery that's an obvious thing to try first. :)

The hard reset is worth trying, in general, for otherwise-unresolvable phone issues.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] devis:
It's a dead battery. Same exact thing you describe happened to me. Granted, it was because of water damage but same symptoms. Thinking the phone was dead I went and bought a new one. Then I decided to try the new battery, bam, phone back alive. Returned the phone and bought a new battery. By the way, the dash2 battery fits as well. Tmobile stores didn't know it... But the connectors were the same do I tried in the store and it worked.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arimp:
So it was indeed a dead battery. Oddly I found someone who had a CMDA TP2 from Verizon (mine is GSM TMO), and was able to pop my battery into their phone for a minute or two and charge it to about 5%, then put it back in my phone and all was well. With their phone, plugging in the charger did not cause the phone to start up and then power cycle.

That's really weird "glitch" if you want to call it that. So mental note, don't let the battery run down too far.

It's more of a "newbie" resource and probably not of much value to those of you here more into advanced topics such as hacking, ROMs, etc. But maybe you field questions from newbies so this might give you something appropriate to refer them to (other than the other FAQ sites mentioned in the sticky, which are more for hacking/ROMs/etc).

I know you guys might be tired of these threads but I thought I might as well post this.

My desire is fairly new(Less than a week) and so far its been good apart from(What I though) battery life. i've been trying to improve it and I think I might have "some" progress.

Currently I'm running DeFrost 4.9 with HAVS @ 1137(4.9a) kernel with the very latest radio, I also use only 2G networks(No 3G here). I got two Gmail accounts but only one has sync(The other one is merely for Google checkout CC purchases), I got one Facebook account set to sync every hour as well as LP Facebook widget also set to sync every hour. I also got FancyWidget syncing weather every 3 hours. Apart from these I got Nimbuzz running 24/7 in background. The battery is calibrated and yesterday I did a complete discharge/recharge.

Now I plugged it off the charger 2 hours ago, it was at 100 according to spare parts. The brightness is at 2%. I did some lite browsing, browsed a bit with Tapatalk Pro and 40 minutes ago went to a market nearby. During my trip to market I had Google Navigation turned on navigating me(During both, the trip to the market and return). Now while making this post the battery is at 81%. Does it sound right?
[Desire General] venkig:
How much time the display was on? How much time was the GPS on?
[Desire General] ljesh:
Be careful, don't be happy before time. I did the recalibration too, and found that my phone would turn itself off at ~20% remaining battery.
[Desire General] Dragooon123:
During the navigation, about 5 minutes for display, 40 minutes GPS during which I went into a building for 10 minutes and it probably lost signal then.
[Desire General] Dragooon123:
OK, this ain't good. I slept at around 2 AM with 29% battery life. In the morning(10:30 AM) it was dead(0% battery).
[Desire General] venkig:
Sound about right. 8.5 hours with your facebook and other syncs. I don't see any problems at all. Mine does this too.
[Desire General] andQlimax:
First, in the night put the phone in airplane mode (I dont think u need to check ur facebook :))

Second, check if u have useless programs that are using cpu in background, if is this the case UNINSTALL that program and CONTACT the developer. We dont need to kill those kinds of app, we just have to UNINSTALL if an app doesn't work properly, untill the developer will fix it. If all people will do like me, the market will full of great apps :)
[Desire General] Dragooon123:
I don't think I have any useless stuff running in the background. All I got are 2 widgets(Facebook and Twitter) syncing every 1 hour and 3 hours respectively, one Fancy Widget fetching weather and Gmail push for one account. Is their a way I can check all the services running in the BG?

EDIT : Forgot to mention Nimbuzz running 24/7.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Agree... before I used to see 1% but after "calibration" now it shuts down itself at 8~9%
[Desire General] th3:
I won't rehash all of what has been heavily discussed by now in much greater depth, like in the FroYo Battery Usage thread. But auto sync with such social applications and you set yourself up for low battery runtime to begin with. Especially with a constant polling IM and/or battery widget running too. Don't expect much.

Anyway, I don't use them but weather, stocks, 5 mail accounts and news is set to auto-sync every 15 minutes and WiFi is always running if available. Last discharge as soon as I connected charger ended at:

http://bit.ly/c6R59G

http://bit.ly/bmM9oN

http://bit.ly/cMlnun

http://bit.ly/akPvr7

I slept twice for 7-8 hours each on that charge and it includes all of my daily usage including listening to 127 minutes of MP3 via headphones with the screen off.

[Desire General] Dragooon123:
Hmm Wi-Fi + Nimbuzz really screws up the battery :P. Last night I turned off the Wi-Fi and slept for 8 hours. I had 46% battery before and in the morning I had 40%. I also have disabled Auto-sync for Twitter/Facebook widget and Facebook app. Now the only running services I got are Gmail push, FancyWidget weather and Nimbuzz.

How did you manage to get such good battery life? Your phone lasted for over a 32 hours period which included 6 hours of display. And that too with stocks and News syncing every 15 minutes. Does Nimbuzz really screw you that much?
