didn't read but yes, call them up and trade it in for a new one, ur phone is considered defective, if u bring it in the store they'll prob just laugh at you and not help since they're all dealerships, call them
[Vibrant General] tpeachey:
If you're looking to unlock a Vibrant so that you can use it on AT&T, problem is that HSPA (3G) frequencies are different, so data speeds are limited to 2G. I just bought a Captivate to run on T-Mobile and have the opposite problem. Interested in a trade?
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
Not true. In the Los Angeles area, I get 3G if I plug in my AT&T SIM in the Vibrant. I get higher download speeds on the Vibrant from AT&T than on T-Mobile.

But the international Galaxy S, which works with AT&T at 3G speeds, did not work on T-Mobile's 3G, dropping to 2G instead.

I had a ton of text message threads in Handcent.. Just rebooted my phone like I do all the time. And all of a sudden they were gone! I tried to do a data restore from Titanium but that never seems to work for texts

Not the end of the world.. Just curios as to why it happened..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenixjn:
I have read before that sometimes HC will FC if too many messages are present on a thread, I guess this could be qualified as another side effect for a database that has become way too large for HC to handle.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenags:
This just happened to me again. After a manual reboot.. ALL of my text messages are gone. They're gone from the stock messaging app too so I'm not sure where the problem lies. I did a Google search and see other people are having this problem as well with just the stock messaging app. Any ideas on a fix? I'm missing some important text messages.... ugh..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenags:
Just noticed my saved wireless networks are gone after the reboot as well....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiwiBeans:
I can't help you with the root cause of the problem - I've never had it happen to me but a couple of friends have (all msgs wiped).

If the messages are missing from Handcent, they will also be missing from the stock app - there's no difference because the messages are (or should be) in the same place and you're just choosing to view/send them with Handcent or the stock app (or another of your choosing).

I CAN, however, help you try to minimize the effects of this happening in the future, as well as keep multiple records of your SMS...

I use two apps, together. The first one, called SMS Backup & Restore, by developer Ritesh Sahu has been a god send for me. You can backup all your messages and restore them, fully - it even gets the conversation threads in the right order by date upon recovery. In addition to manual backups, you can schedule backups.

While backing up is fast, I have to warn you that deleting all current messages (if you have a lot) and restoring them can take time. Restoring them, however, shows you a status bar so you can track its progress while deleting them just says "deleting" and you never know how long it will be. (The same dev also has a sister program for phone call logs - it's lightning fast and just as reliable/effective).

The other app I use is called "SMS Backup" by dev Christoph Studer (if you have trouble finding either of these in the market, look them up by searching for the dev's names). What this app does is work quietly in the background to send / upload your SMS to your Gmail. You can set which label you want to apply to them in Gmail, and then in Gmail set a filter to have them skip right over your inbox. This app also lets you have them appear as read when they are uploaded. All in all, you never even realize it's working and your Gmail will never be the wiser, until you have to refer back to an old SMS - maybe a phone number or address or some other vital info sent to you over text... and you can just go and find it at that time safely recorded in your Gmail.

I hope that helps!

Best of luck. If you're having trouble beyond disappearing texts, you may have other more serious underlying issues... :confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenags:
The problem with the backup apps are obviously I need to run them. Who thinks to do a backup prior to doing nothing more than a reboot?! It's crazy that the phone just deletes them on it's own. Searching on Google shows that this problem is wayyyy too common.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
who will do backups on a regular basis? folks that have lost data in the past. the more significant the loss, the better their backup habits.

i do backups. it seems the previous poster does. heck, i bet you start doing backups too. :)

the more you work with technology the more likely you are to ensure that your important data is at least duplicated. things like pictures, audio, video, text should be considered. this goes for desktops, laptops, netbooks, phones, etc. if it stores data, runs an OS and a users interacts with it...it will fail eventually.

sms backup works quite nicely. i found it after i lost my text messgs once.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenags:
I run Titanium every single night by schedule and nandroid every other night. I also have automated backups on all my PC's. But I send and recieve at least 1000 texts a day.. So when my texts randomly delete themselves at 5pm.... A backup made at 2am does me no good for my text messages....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
Then modify your backup routine. I your backups won't recover your data...you are using the wrong tool. Sms backup can backup every X hrs.

Trust me..there is always a way to protect data that you find important.

I agree, the app shouldn't erase your data.

you can complain and cry....or...complain and recover.

The choice is solely up to you.

Good luck.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es7241:
I Rooted my phone today and messed around with it a little and flashed Kingklick's Kernel, and while messing around with it I (Like an idiot) flashed JAC's Kernel right over it , But Im guessing this is what bricked it, it hung at the samsung galaxy S screen ... then I tryed flashing the Stock .tar file using Odin, but with no luck it boots up normally until after the Galaxy S boot screen and the screen goes black but the 4 touch buttons on the phone light up please help.

PS. I have been searching this forum for hours for a solution, and excuse me if this is in the wrong section I am new to XDA.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
You didn't brick it. It's almost impossible to brick this phone. Just do a complete Factory flash with odin, 512 pit file, and tar file; then you should be ok
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es7241:
I think I did that and the same is still happening, but can you give me a link to the Complete Factory Flash, you are referring too because I tried both of the ones in the Vibrant Bible.

I was about to make a thread in Q&A because I'm having the same problem as the OP was having.

For the life of me I cannot get adb to recognize my Vibrant, also, when I try and put the phone into download mode I get nothing. Phone Will boot up, go through the bootanimation, and once I get to the home screen everything goes black with the capacitive keys lit up.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

On a side note: I had an Epic not too long ago and had nothing but problems with the Drivers. 32 bit.

Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es7241:
What I do to get into download mode is connect they phone to thee computer (while it is off) and wait until the battery meter comes on. Once the battery meter comes on I hold the volume up and down key and the power key until the battery meter goes away and comes back again(keep holding the keys) but right when the battery meter goes away again let go of the power button (but still hold the volume keys) and you should bee in download mode then you can let go of thee volume keys and run odin.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backward0:
dl mode

1 phone off

2 odin on

3 take out battery sim and memory card

4 plug usb in

5 hold down both volume keys down(only) while reinserting battery only

this works to get me into DL mode everytime.

Hope it works for you.

Hi,

I have a new Desire which came with eclair, then I updated to Froyo and rooted it with unrevoked tool.

Now I receive the latest OTA update, I have decided to updated, but when rebooting the phone it all seemed it was going to install the update but all of a sudden appeared an android symbol with exclamation mark saying it was not possible to update it.

Do anybody here knows how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance

ARA LOS QUE USARON UNREVOKED 3 PARA ROOTEAR

Yo tengo una Desire rooteado con unrevoked 3, me descargaba la actualizacion, le daba a actualizar ,reiniciaba para actualizar, salia la pantalla negra con la caja pero a los pocos segundos aparecia un simbolo con el android y junto a él un triangulo con bordes blancos y en el centro del triangulo un simbolo de exclamación y me decia que no podia actualizar, me daba error.

Por si acaso pierdo el root yo creo que de momento paso de la actualizacion.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] other-midas:
Hi all,

Maybe some kind person can give me a hand with this:

I am trying to edit /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf (need this for some extra auth method in my university) on a HTC Desire (non HD) with 2.2 Froyo.

I rooted the phone using "revoked", and have Astro as file explorer and a shell terminal installed on the phone, and the Android SDK with abd.exe on Win764bit.

I tried editing the file directly with Astro (which does not seem to get root rights), no success.

'tried using adb, but I always end up having a no access. adb says the daemon is started successfully, but with "remount failed: operation not permitted".

Similar things happen with adb sysrw.

I googled some and a site mentioned a cat <some-file-name-i-forgot>

that should yield a 0, but yielded a 1.

Firewall on the Windows machine is off ofc. Bear with me, I'm new to Android.

- Darkstone OR

- Hastarin R7.1

-----> Currently i am using Hastarin R7.1 ... Tell me your experience ...?

each dev puts hard work into each build. u shouldnt single out any of them by posting this poll.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] David Balfour:
there is no "best" kernel as there are good points in all of them and together they have created their own style of working.

All of the kernels are have similar tweaks so alot of things are the same i.e darkstones graphics tweaks and michys ext batteries.

I think that this would need to be a "which kernel do you prefer" rather than a best thread as this all falls down to preference. I for example prefer michy's kernel as i like having the higher clock speed and it has never let me down. I have tried others but keep coming back to michy's

Please move this to Android general?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jubeh:
I see how this topic could become helpful. It could signal out which kernel is the most used, eventually, kernel devs could move from their stuck-up ways and work together on whichever kernel people consider to be better/more stable.

I'm on Matt 1.8 and his kernel had constant problems with data dropping and very frequent 2-3 second freezes that were just abnoxious.

I switched to hastarin 4.1 and then 7.1 and I wouldn't go back. My device's been on Android only ever since and it's staying that way.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Raary101:
agreed.

this is a bit of an odd issue, because personally I really don't like the Hastarin R7.1 kernels, and the darkstone ones work beautifully, but clearly that isn't the case, regarding the fact that that's the most popular one.

in retrospect, this probably isn't a very good idea for a thread, because its not going to show anyone which kernel to get, because they will most likely get a different experience to others :P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wawa144st:
can you post that kernel please been looking for that
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buzz killington:
Michy Evo R0

I actually like the Michy Evo R0 kernel. For me all the nexus one based kernels have the problem of freezing up if you let it go to standby with wifi on, once it happens you don't have much choice but to wait until it unfreezes. All the Evo kernels have the problem with the delayed flash, but that's a smaller problem for me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
I don't think telling devs they are stuck up is a good idea. I personally use which ever I wanna try. It gives them each good feedback. They make changes and those fixes spread to other kernals.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Fernas:
Im running Hastarin´s (4.1 or 5 i believe) in Mattc´s 1.8, im not sure which kernel was on that one, but im getting great results with this combination, standby drain goes down to 5ma at some points, and running with no SOD, almost none touch screen freezing, really minimal, and when they occurr it gets recovered pretty fast, im really happy with it, no 3G data for me, wifi works great though.
