[Captivate General] srfernsd:
So I tried to flash froyo with odin and in my eagerness to use froyo on my phone I forgot to disable the voodoo lagfix. Now when my phone boots it shows the ATT boot screen and then the Galaxy S one, then nothing but a blank screen. Also when ever i try to flash a firmware it reboots right in the middle of the flashing process and Odin says I removed the target. Can anyone help me out? And sorry if this was discussed somewhere else I have been looking but the search feature won't work right now, and I am tired of going through thread after thread reading post after post.
[Captivate General] erezak:
Have you tried one-click Odin?
[Captivate General] 4Majeed:
In the same topic (probably >.>): I have Congition 2.1.1, when I flash back to stock using Odin, do I have to disable the lagfix ?
[Captivate General] srfernsd:
yes i have, and it doesn't work.
[Captivate General] grave101:
Yes odin does work your just not doing it correctly
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
No. I have done it many times.
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
If the op was only flashing a kernel, that could have caused problems with voodoo. Flash completely back to stock and you should be ok. Search for the odin thread to learn how to get your phone in download mode. If you follow all the different methods they list, you shouldn't have a problem fixing your phone.

Wow, a superb collection of pics and GREAT comparison! Thumbs up!:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Kienz:
I agree. Very concise and comprehensive. Thank you for taking the time to share.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
Good job on the pics. I already did my own comparisons but thanks for putting in the time :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] g1g2comparison:
Thanks. I figured people can link to specific pics for reference too. I already linked to the microSD slot & hinge in a couple other posts.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidlicious:
Wow, thanks for these pictures. I had a G1 but I thought that that phone was bulky. Although the G2 is significantly thinner, what troubles me is that the G2 is heavier than the G1. The G1 used to sag the pockets of loose clothing like hoodies, sweatpants, etc.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kludgineer:
It is a bit heavier, but there is a reason... It is built far better. I can't get over how solid this thing feels in your hand.

The G1 was a great phone-- mine served me very well for most of two years, but stepping up to the G2 feels like stepping up from a mini-van to a Mercedes. Both may weigh about the same and both get you where you are going, but that is where the comparison ends.
[G2 and Desire Z General] iamjames:
Thanks for taking the time to create and organize a pic set comparison. Its great.

Hi everyone, here at XDA Developers, I found more threads on this subject but none helped me. As the name suggests its own HTC Touch Cruise Polaris. I use Windows Mobile 6.5 recently but the phone freezes. I'm looking for a drive. Top in the Czech language, but of course the English would not say no.

Please help. I have experience with one even really knows what he is. Therefore I ask you this thread of your experience with ROM for this phone. This is my only Windows Mobile 6.5. Please share your experience with the specific drive and as far as possible and link to it.

Ahoj všichni, zde na XDA Developers jsem nalezl víc vláken na toto téma ale ani jedno mi nepomohlo. Jak už název napovídá vlastním HTC Touch Cruise Polaris. Používám windows mobile 6.5 ale v poslední době telefon zamrzne. Sháním nějakou ROM. Nejlépe v českém jazyce ale samozřejmě anglickou nepohrdnu.

Prosím vás o pomoc. Mám zkušenosti jen s jednou ani pořádně nevím co to je zač. Proto vás tímto vláknem žádám o vaše zkušenosti s ROM pro tento telefon. Jedná se mi pouze o windows mobile 6.5. Prosím o vaše zkušenosti s konkrétní ROM a pokud to bude možné tak i odkaz na ní.

Děkuji

btw: V této oblasti jsem začátečník. A omlouvám se za mou Angličtinu není moc dobrá ...

[General Questions and Answers] Navetz:
Is there any way to do this without having to re-install all my apps on my phone? I have a lot of apps installed and would not want to lose my data for them.

Also: I have a HTC Magic with 2.1 and cyanogen mod. It is starting to really get slow so I would like to do this upgrade.

[General Questions and Answers] bunu:
Try using Titanium Backup from the market. It backs up market links, apps, and app data. Also it backs up launcher's settings.

I would personally just do a clean wipe since Android 2.2 will automatically download and install all your apps.
[General Questions and Answers] jwebster:
Titanium Backup Fail

Downloaded the free and paid vesions of TB to a rooted ATT Captivate. Installed normally. Got the latest busybox and did a compete back up. All still ok. Flashed the new 2.2beta8.1 (designgears/cognition ROM) onto the device with Clockwork ROM manager. Still normal. Noticed after the restart, that FroYo installed, and as expected, all my apps were gone, only the stock apps remainng. I started the resoration process with market downloads of with TB and then TB Pro downloads (again) to get set up to go forward with the restore function and replace my apps and settings into the device.

I went to restore and here is where the "trouble" begins. I am unable to restore from the extermal SD card. No method for getting to it from within the program. Despite carefully reading everything I could find on your website and the forums, beforo beginning with the first steps for TB free, and then immediately into TBP, and carefully accomplishing the initial backup (which worked without error and stored onto the external sd card) something is not working the way it should, (I feel).

So I turned to the the PC next. I mounted the sd's and found the file. Copied it over to the root directory on the internal card from the ext sd card with the supplied data cable: ran TBP restore again. TBP indiactes back up successful, but it doesn't resotre anything backed up from the device under 2.1 Eclair_update1.

Still I do not have my contacts, deja office, tune in radio, ect. I did not have a lot of apps, but they are not reappearing when I do the restore.

The starred locs in maps came back, tho I actually think those favs, etc. are stored online.

So, working from memory here, the apps that failed to make the trip: Kindle and my one book Moby **** (a fun re-read - btw I realize now that I was too young to appreciate this when I read it in high school), Bar Code Scanner, BT GPS, Deja Office, Tricorder. None of my 1050 or so Conacts, Tasks, Memos, Notes, were restored. When I look at the Android Market app, and go to the download tab, it only remembers the paid apps I installed, none of the free apps show up in my list of downloaded programs. TuneIn Radio and its dozen or so presets are also missing. These are the missing apps I can recall at this instant. Oddly enough, the calendar appoitments did make the trip, maybe because google online is syncing them?

So I guess you could say the TB PRO app has been pretty much of a flop for me thus far, but I am hopeful that it will be fully functional soon. I'm wondering if the 2.2 ROM upgrade has some implication in the inability of the program to restore from the external sd card? Maybe there is something I missed in your documentation?

I could rebuild everything one step at a time, but I'd rather see the back-up program function as advertied and save my time. So I will pause here in my efforts, run with what I have, and wait to hear from you.

Your comments and suggestions are highly anticipated!

[XPERIA X10 General] berbecverde:
Nope.:)

I got rid of the restart problem by doing a reset to factory defaults,others had a taskkiller that was causing it,and someone had a battery issue.:p

Edit: forgot to ask: did you try to remove the ambient home and see if the problem is still there?
[XPERIA X10 General] go3asy:
Removed flyscreen seems ok sofar phone starting to lag bad though typing away and the text appears 5 sec later. Factory reset I think probs the amount of apps ive had on and off the phone lol

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coastline:
Am I imagining it or is my Desire giving me mini electric shocks?

It's just like a tingling sensation from around the edge of the phone. **Edit Anyone know what sort of multimeter I would need to test this and what settings I would use**

Should I take my phone back - I only got it last week?

Also the phone seems to heat up towards the lower quarter of the back under use - is this also normal?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ik Desire:
Electric shocks are not normal, warming up is.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullyfrog:
I know what you mean by the electric shocks. A buddy of mine had the exact same problem with his desire. He walked around for a week getting zapped as he wasn't sure if he was imagining it. Take it back to HTC. Your phone needs to be serviced.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpSpin:
does this only happen if the phone is connected via the USB port to some external device like a notebook or your AC adapter? Then it's normal.

Does this also happen if it's not connected to anything? Then it's not normal ;)

Heat:

Yes, it's normal. The CPU with a small heat spreader is located at the bottom of the desire. And the CPU produces heat. The Desire can get really warm, so nothing to worry about.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coastline:
This happens when it's not plugged into anything.

Thought I was going nuts but I don't think so - well no more than usual.

Anyone have any suggestions for testing this. I have a multimeter but have no idea what I should do with it! :-(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpSpin:
put your Desire on a wooden desk and touch it with only one finger on the bronze colored edge. Do you get a shock then?

Or do you only get a shock while holding it in your hand? Maybe because there's a high voltage between the edge and the USB connector?

set your multimeter to Voltage. Put one probe on the edge of the Desire (without touching the Desire with your finger or anything else), the other probe to the ground, e.g. a conductive heater or a blank heating pipe or the ground pole in your wall socket (but be careful :mad:).

Measure both DC and AC voltages. Any high voltages? Something above a few mV?

Also measure the voltage between the casing and the USB socket frame.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] !PANDA:
My theory... metal casing + static charge = electric schock! Used to get these in clothes stores:D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coastline:
I can't get any reading of my multimeter but I must admit to not really knowing what I'm doing!

"Static" .....hmmm I wonder!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coastline:
Well, it's gone to be examined! They may even send it to HTC to be tested!

Lady in the shop gave me that knowing "you're a looney" look!

When I mentioned it was more like a tingle than a shock she smiled and said "Maybe that's why they call it a 'Desire' "! Should have seen that one coming!

Maybe it is just me and static but as I haven't had it on any of my previous HTC phones there must be something with the design that amplifies it!

Just have to wait and see...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] !PANDA:
Well it would just be the metal rim around the phone and the electrons on your fingers...

Have my phone back from Vodafone:

"They are pleased to say the fault has been fixed"

"One of our engineers has thoroughly tested your phone. The repair centre was unable to identify a fault with your phone.

"As part of the repair process we have given your phone a full internal service including upgrading the software as this is how many faults are fixed!

So - the fault that they couldn't find is now fixed and my phone has new spark plugs and fresh oil!

Don't you just love automated letters!

So it's looking like it must be a static issue! Guess I'll just have to live with it!

Today in the morning i updated manila weather - everything is ok, temputere etc, but there is no sun only moon (like at night). All my locations has the same "bug". Moon is also on a new locations, which I added. In my location is almost 12 am.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] troed:
Same for me in Austria.

Don´t worry, must be a bug in the external weather-server and can´t be corrected on HD2. Maybe a time-code is transmitted wrongly.

Let´s see if it is still the same in a couple of days then we´ll have to contact HTC service to check the weather data provider service if they didn´t got to it already.

I saw on a friends HD2 android software and i really loved it.

I have a custom rom on my hd2 (omega v14.4/radio 2.10.50.28_2) and i need your help to install ANDROID on it.

Is there a dual bootloader or a specific procedure to run android?

I have to format the phone and install only android on it or there are both on the phone?

Which is the best ROM so far for it?

Battery consumption/signal/gps etc remain functionable like in WinMO?

Greetings all,

I'm attempting to replace the first splash screen on my supersonic.

I issue the following command in the SDK/tools folder:

fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565

which returns the following:

sending 'splash1' (750 KB)... OKAY
writing 'splash1'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

I am properly rooted, and I do see S-OFF at the top of my bootloader screen.

Please help, I've been at this for hours, and it's driving me completely mad. :(

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CTH-EVO:
Thank you both for your thoughtful replies.

Well, I was reading before I received your replies, and found a thread

explaining that the HTBOOT which is installed with Unrevoked 3.21 doesn't have

the "extended" boot options that the ENG bootloader does, and provided

instructions on installing it. Upon finishing the install, and rebooting. I got

stuck at fastboot. I was unable to restore any of my nandroids to recover

(they failed at the last part). So I spent many hours trying to find a way to

recover. I ended up trying to fastboot update a PC36IMG that was really

close to the versions of everything I already had. It failed at the system update.

So I powered off the phone, and began trying to find another way. I decided to

try something, so re-powered the phone, and to my amazement, it booted up

normally. I have absolutely NO idea, why a failed update would fix it. But all's back

to normal - with the exception that I still have the .76 or .73 HTBOOT.

So I guess I'll try the boot screen again. :)

Thanks again for taking the time to respond.

I used this about an hour ago on my girl friends evo that is using hboot 2.10. Worked great. Just make .zip file and use hboot to flash it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DrRyder:
Flashing a splash image as a PC36IMG.zip file will work in any hboot version. As long as you are S-OFF, you'll be fine. However, using remote fastboot commands only works in hboot version .76. I have my own splash screen that I made and flashed using a PC36IMG.zip on the root of my SD card through hboot.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] OpenMinded:
Can anyone explain a little more?

I have fastboot commands working on my mytouch 4g with hboot version 0.85.2007 (PD1510000).

My G2 (Desire Z) has 0.86 and gives the error described.

Is there a way to update hboot to that version?

Is using that pc36img.zip the same as the fastboot command?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] OpenMinded:
I fixed it by using this:

So I am on 0.76 now.

Is hboot generic or device specific?

So is flashing a newer version possible?

Would it also be totally unnecessairy :)?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
some roms require a newer version of hboot to be able to flash that rom, but any version will install a PC36IMG zip so unless the rom you want to flash requires it, there really is no need to update it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] OpenMinded:
Thanks for your quick reply.

So this is not device specific?

Meaning, could I flash the 0.85 from a htc glacier to the htc vision?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
you got me there... i wouldn't, just to be on the safe side. but there would be no benefit to doing so. hboot from one devise isn't "better" than one from another. you can search which is the most up to date version for yours and flash that.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] OpenMinded:
thanks. I guess I'll just leave it on 0.76 for now :).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] conflikt:
.76 is the best. Specially for devs. Repacking everything gets old real fast. Extended fastboot commands rock :) . I was on. 79 and downgraded to. 76 got sick of repacking stuff. Seems as if the higher ones are not downgradeable, and people losing wimax keys/bricking phones when updating to them.
