[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmdunn:
AOSP is something you either like or dislike ... there is no middle ground. I have used CM6 extensively, but I also maintain a nice "Sense" rom, for whenever I'm in a 4g area. On that point, I may not need it much longer, as CM6 will be going 4g very shortly. Also looks like HDMI will be working soon ... FM Radio has already been added.

Basic aosp, like in Cyanogen's rom is very quick, very smooth, and just works. You will hear about people who are having an issue here and there, but it's almost always "user error". That doesn't mean that CM6 is perfect, but it is highly evolved and almost there.

Most of the people coming from "sense" will not like it. Although it doesn't have all the widgets and stuff ... almost everything can be replicated. For example, I like the look of the clock/weather widget and so I use "fancy widget", an almost exact replica. I also like launcher pro, and it works perfectly. I could go on and on, but you will need to decide for yourself.

Do a nand back up of whatever you're currently using, and jump in. And don't give up after a couple of hours. As with everything new, there is a learning curve ... and you should do some reading/exploring. Ask lots of questions ... there is plenty of help available ... all be it, with the usual XDA "style". I will leave you with this final thought ... Cyanogen is without a doubt, the foremost Android developer ever.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
CM6 will be smoother, less lockups and just overall run better. I haven't run Vael's so I don't know if he uses AOSP contacts and dialer, but I prefer the AOSP contacts and text apps. I download Dialer One from the market to get T9 dialing.

Integration with facebook contacts and twitter is much better on CM6. CM6 may have 4G working soon, FM Radio is working now, and HDMI is close as well. The camera app on CM6 is leagues better than any of the other camera apps.

Just make sure when you install cm6 that you install the Gapps zip since you need that to get maps, market, gmail and the basic google services.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stangdriverdoug:
I have a lot of time with both roms. Vaelpak's rom is fantastic and his support is quick and spot on. probably the developer that is the most reachable when you have a problem or question. Very smooth, stable, and fast. CM6 takes a lot of fine tuning to get all the apps you want and get it set up to exactly the way you want it. Its so damn fast and smooth that people in 4g areas run the rom anyway because it's performance out weighs the lack of 4g and hdmi. And snap's kernels and his support team are second to none. When 4g makes it to CM	I will run that rom as my daily exclusively on my EVO until the new dual core phones come out or the EVO 2.

I had the same problem because I updated to J16 and it was caused by old version of Mobile AP. Look in the Development section for J16 MobileAP and that should solve your problem...hopd that helps.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coldplayers:
hi people,

I was trying to upgrade my firmware via Kies. However after the completion of the process and reboot, only thing that I could see that black screen with the turning "S".

That was just the beginning, I tried some recovery stuff myself and everything did go worse and worse.

Now my device (i9000s) has 2 options remaining which brings me nothing.

1. vol up +power+main screen ->

update.zip does not work, installation aborts, so I cannot move here.. (partition wiped, factory reset etc done...)

2. vol down +power+main screen ->

downloading.... (brings me nothing)

I downloaded a new "update.zip" from internet and moved it to external SD card and it also brings me nothing.

after I reboot, I get a black screen with Samsung I9000 text, nothing more.

Do you think that I can recover this stupidness of mine?

[G2 and Desire Z General] clintj:
Anyone else had this problem yet? Had mine since Oct. 4th

I didn't try to do a data wipe. Just took it to T-mobile for a replacement. Didn't want it to start working again because I had got a scratch on my phone anyways and it was a good opportunity to get a replacement.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tino888:
Me too. When I use my headphone, people on the other line can't hear me. This happen more than once. I try to do a hard reset but it still don't work.... anyone have any solution.
[G2 and Desire Z General] clintj:
My issue was the microphone on the phone. Did you not buy from T-mobile or other authorized outlet? Your phone should be within warranty.

Another thing to try would be a Data wipe/factory reset.

Another thing I noticed is that when I charge my phone there is an LED in the earpiece. My last G2's LED must have been defective.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tino888:
Hi, what happen if you buy the phone from craiglist, how can I return ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] clintj:
Contact HTC about warranty service I guess. I don't understand why someone would sell the phone on craigslist when it is within the 14 day return policy for tmobile where you can get a full refund unless maybe it was stolen.

You can contact HTC here: http://www.htc.com/europe/CA_Hotline.aspx?region=NorthAmerica
[G2 and Desire Z General] sivalley:
I'm just speculating here, but it's based on past experience with flexible connectors like the one used to bridge the display portion to the body. I'm surprised to see the possible defect occurring so early in life of this handset, but the fact that the ribbon is forced to bend back 180 with a radius of less than 1mm when the display is open puts a LOT of stress on the thin conductors of the ribbon. The problem might have been precluded by HTC using carbon traces rather than typical metallic copper on this critical component. See for yourself by looking at your phone edgewise next time you flip it open. If we're lucky and enough handsets fail like this HTC MIGHT do something of a product recall. Incidentally, has anyone with a dead mic also experienced random screen garbage or erratic touch response? Again I point to the same design flaw.

Here's to hoping I'm dead wrong guys! :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z General] StealthNet:
This problem just happened to me. With no apparent reason, the internal speaker stopped working. People can hear me, but I can´t hear anything.

Funny thing tho, if I activate the external speaker, it works. The problem is the internal speaker only.

Is it a known problem like the shoddy usb connector on some kaisers ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] scottmog:
dont say anything to tmobile about where you bought it from. there is a one year warranty the original date of purchase. at least there was with the motorola cliq that i got off craigslist. returned it for a fab'd one without scratches :) gonna do it one more time right before the year is up haha
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdWRX:
My G2's mic has also stopped working, been looking around different websites for parts, but I can't seem to find it, u guys know anyone?

If I use it with the headphones/mic, it works fine, people hear me and all. If not, people can't hear me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] makergeek:
FWIW, I had this exact problem shortly before Christmas. the mic started by cutting out sometimes, then failing altogether. Using an external mic worked fine so it wasn't software, just the physical connection to the built in mic. I'm pretty sure that sivalley is right in his speculation that the issue is the flexible ribbon connector.

Fortunately for me my phone was under warranty and HTC arranged to pick it up etc.

Weirdly the day before they were due to pick it up, the whole screen stopped working. I could power up and feel the vibration etc, but the screen never came on. Again I think the common factor was the flexible ribbon.

When HTC repaired it it came with a long list of things they'd replaced to get it working again, so it may not be as simple as just replacing a ribbon connector.

I have no idea whether it's possible to source the parts, but it might be worth finding out how much HTC would charge to fix it if it's not under warranty (could still be a good deal)

This is basically a port/mix of Watermarkd and Superfroyo. If people don't know how to ADB push this PM me and I will make a metamorph of it and post it. I would recommend using your favorite metamorphs for your apk's i.e. settings,you tube. Personally I'm a big fan of Binary100100's Community Hero Mix morph,I like to use his metamorph version for everything except framework-res.apk then I do my own thing on the framework. If anybody want's to donate go to Market and buy Ninjamorph pro and Metamorph donate that guy makes the best customizing apps there are and I'm curious what he will come up with next if we support him!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ddgarcia05:
I have all my apps backed up to my sd. But was wondering if i should move them to my card and have them run off the card or device. Also what app would move them all over at one time? Seems like the built in client only does one at a time. Currently i use app control to back them up.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] smasraum:
The SDcard should be slower than the phone storage, so I would keep you most commonly used apis on the internal storage. I really can't imagine why you'd need to move them all off anyway. Where you running out of storage? It probably won't be that noticeable on the G2, but on my old G1 there was a big difference.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ddgarcia05:
No i got plenty room. I just want to avoid getting a lag on my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jayb222:
So far I have 114 apps on my g2 internal and no lag at all. This is no g1. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] minotauri:
ya i agree - tons of space on the G2. i dont have anything running on SD now. I used to have a bunch running on my SD when I had G1 and even the N1.

if you really do want to though, i run apps like Astro File Manager, and Rock Player on my SD because they call out files on the SD card anyway.

I'm having problems when sending sms messages and calls. Only 2 out of 5 messages that I send ever get to the other person's phone. Also, when I make a call I hear noises.

What I have done:

1-Try Updating my Radio (I'm in 2.15.00.07.28 and tried installing 2.15.00.09.xx. I did it using hboot, putting the .img on the sdcard and letting hboot do the rest but I'm still in 2.15.00.07.28 THE UPDATE DIDNT WORK)

2-Different ROMs.

3-Doing *228 several times.

Nothing has fixed the problems, please help me.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
Be very careful flashing radios. Section 3 of Dadicus' guide will tell you how. Couple of key points. Be sure to read thoroughly to avoid mistakes, make sure your sd card is FAT32, and don't rename the file. Leave it as default, which should be PB31IMG.zip. Of course, leave it on the root of the sd card, and update through HBOOT. Again, be careful.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phsyckr:
Thanks!

But I that's what I did trying to update the Radio and I want to try again (i know you arent suppoused to install the same radio twice, I wont I figured that it didnt update the first time I did beacuse the link on the Guide wasnt the last version but the same I already had before updating) Do you think updating the Radio would help me?

I have just updated to JPM but now the OCLF wont work and says it is only available for 2.1

Is there another way of doing this or a OCLF out thats not in the market place that i need to download.

Probably because any developers with a Vibrant either do not have time or are working on their own custom ROMS, others may just not like sense and this keeps them from porting it.

[HD2 General] nlo:
I have a very strange problem and if anyone could help me I'd very much appreciate it as I can't find anything similar in the forums (with a solution) after a month of searching.

My HD2 has HardSPL3 and the ChuckyDroid ROM with Android on an SDCard.

The USB connector on the handset has stopped working (the metal D-shape thing wobbles about) so I cannot flash a ROM to it via the ROM Update Utility, only by the LEOIMG.nbh on an SDCard method works.

I need to send the handset back to Vodafone for a warranty repair, but obviously having HSPL3 and a custom WM ROM invalidates my warranty so I need to flash the stock ROM back to the phone to remove them both.

Problem is that I can flash any custom ROM I find to the handset using the SDCard method (Except Energy ROM's for some reason) but when I try to flash the stock Vodafone ROM using this method it fails to start the phones flash routine.

So I'm stuck with a phone I can't charge (using desktop charger for the battery atm) and I can't send back for repair.

Any ideas?????

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
dont worry too much about the rom, get a close to stock custom rom on there, use hspl2.exe to remove hspl (set it to 1.66.0000) and it should be fine.
[HD2 General] nlo:
Is it possible to flash HSPL2 onto it without using the USB cable?

The connector on the handset is totally borked so i can't use the PC for anything, just the SDCard flashing method. :/
[HD2 General] nlo:
**BUMP**

I haven't found a solution still. :(
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
no, you cant use any other means to run hspl.

as to why custom roms flash from card and stock dont, you must be doing something wrong. please outline your proceedure.
[HD2 General] nlo:
I downloaded the stock Vodafone ROM from the link in mskip's flashing thread.

Rename the .exe to .zip

Extract the zip

Rename the RUU_Signed.nbh to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it to an SDCard.

insert card into handset and reboot holding the volume down button.

Same procedure I use for flashing custom ROM's.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
hmm, very strange, all i can suggest is trying several different stock roms. dont forget to check what your bootloader says for spl, because even a failed stock flash can remove hspl and reset stock spl.
[HD2 General] nlo:
I downloaded the ROM directly from HTC support site but same thing occurs when I try to flash it. HSPL is definitely still on there too.

I find it weird that I can flash any custom ROM except the Energy ROMs, I'm assuming that perhaps these have more in common with stock ROM's than the others.

I'm lost atm!
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
a long shot, but are you extracting the ruu_signed before copying it to the sd card, or are you drag/dropping it directly to the phone from within winrar/winzip? I've heard of that causing problems with corruption before, though I can't remember the files involved or the context.

try different stock roms, you said its voda, but was it locked voda?

appart from that, thoughts would be, make sure the sd is freshly formatted, full format, not quick format, fat32, get the roms from different sources, maybe even use different browsers to download them, maybe even try the wwe 3.14 rom, even if it flashes the spl and then wont load the rom, you can always plead ignorance with them, it's a stock spl after all. (Course, they may just tell you to do one, so only try that if you are prepared to argue)
