To switch Android builds just copy your builds to your sd card and run CLRCAD and then Haret. All the build threads have step by step directions just in case. Good luck.

what about for the UK HTC HD2??

I have done the HSDL install, and then put radio version 2.10 on it.

was running Froyo ok, but telephone calls wasnt working (everything else was tho :confused:) and the phone seemed to reboot itself into the standard stock HTC sense operating system.

am thinking maybe the radio was not the best for it? and I should change it, but not sure how. it says radio version still 2.10 at present

any help appreciated!

Nevermind, figured it out, running more stable with Radio 2.14, can make phone calls!

So over the past few days ive come to realize that if im in an area with no service for a long time, my battery burns down about 4x quicker then if i did have service.

It must have to do with the fact that the phone is constantly trying to pick up signal. I would put it in airplane mode, but then i wouldnt be able to use wifi.

Anyone else have this problem? What do you recommend for a solution?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catire:
Can't you just enable wifi after going into airplane mode?

Exactly. All the option from holding the power button does is turn off the APN, not the cell radio itself.

I finally got around to going to the Sprint store, and after waiting for an hour and a half she said its not covered by insurance because its cosmetic, part of my screen is covered by a black and purple blob. Why have I been paying for insurance for 2 years? How can I get it to be covered now? All help would be greatly appreciated. I don't have 100 bucks to toss right now
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkd711:
do you pay an extra $7 and month or the $4 and month?

If its the $7, just google assurion.com and file a claim and they will ship you one. No need to wait at the Sprint store with all those minimum wage idiots.

If its just the $4 plan, just smash it til the screen cracks and get it fixed. More than likely they will order you a replacement at the repair store this time... Stupid, I know, but they should have fixed it for you the first time. I would have raised hell if they gave me that "Cosmetic Crap."

Goodluck.

Assurion will charge a $100 deduct regardless if you turn in your old broken phone. If you still have the phone I recommend getting it done at the sprint store no deduct.

[Vibrant General] go_l_den:
Hey guys,

I'm about ready to throw a brick through a window at Samsung's Headquarters, so I'm sure this will make an excellent first post.

Earlier today, my dad decided to update is rooted phone via a T-Mobile update sent out via the internet to the latest J16 firmware. Not surprisingly, his phone was one of many to get soft bricked. From this point I used ODIN to flash back to J15 and then used it again to upgrade to J16. Now, the phone boots normally, but it still seems to have ROM manager and other root applications on its hard drive despite the fact that ODIN should have wiped out all of the packages.

This coupled with the fact that I have failed to re-root the device and USB connectivity is awful compared to J15, I decided to try and flash back to J15 using ODIN. Only this time, when I get the device into download mode it isn't recognized properly as a USB device by my computer; therefore, ODIN won't recognize it either.

My dad is about ready to take the phone to T-Mobile in hopes of getting a new device, but before he attempts this I'm wondering if there are any solutions to my problems that A) Fix USB connectivity in download mode or B) Allow me to whipe all data and revert to J15 in some other manner.

Help would be appreciated!

Go_L_Den
[Vibrant General] sinean:
First and foremost make sure your plugging the usb into a usb port that is connected directly to the motherboard. Should stablize the usb connection. ( I had the same issue) Second flash to JFD via odin, then you want to upgrade to J16 via the vibrant version of kies mini. OTA update is not the greatest.
[Vibrant General] chui101:
The JI5/6 updates don't wipe all data and apps, as they were designed to be OTA updates and not complete new installs. Can't have people complaining that an update wiped their entire phone, right? Stock JFD is a full flash which wipes all user data.

And yes, try to have it plugged directly into the motherboard's USB ports, make sure the contacts on the microUSB aren't corroded, and try deleting the Vibrant drivers and reinstalling them.
[Vibrant General] rogerchew:
which version of odin you using? try 1.3 if not already
[Vibrant General] thejamaican:
Kies or ODin

[Vibrant General] jay661972:
All you hace to do is go to USB settings and with the OTA update for J16, there's an option to choose "Ask what to connect" either samsung kies, mass storage, etc. Happen to me, did unroot, factory reset and there you go, just need to go to that stupid settings.

Hi

I'm using OpenDesire (latest stable) and there is something that's annoying me.

Don't know if this is ROM related or anything but...

I'm using the 24h clock and the leading zero is driving me nuts...

When it's 3AM it show 03:00... Is there anyway to make it display 3:00.

This is the standard android clock, the one in the taskbar and lockscreen.

Thanks!
[Desire Themes and Apps] GANJDROID:
Erm, its pretty much standard for 25h clocks to have the leading 0, otherwise its not technically 24h. I can understand how it could be annoying, but the tiny am/pm is much much worse ;)

when i have my phone on vibrate it does so with calls but not on texts even though i turned on the option under the settings for texts. i also tried audiomanager which doesnt seem to work either.

anyone else having this problem and is there a way to fix it?
[Epic 4G General] Sesquipedalian:
Annoying as it is, the vibrate for incoming texts is controlled separately from the ringer volume. Meaning that if you turn on vibrate, it will always vibrate even if your phone isn't set to vibrate.

Menu -> Settings -> Vibrate from the text thread list.

My solution is to use the Tasker app to vibrate the phone when I receive a text on the condition that variable %SILENT = vibrate.
[Epic 4G General] jojo08:
What I'm trying to say is that even when I go to settings and vibrate under text menu it doesn't vibrate on texts. I may give that app a try.
[Epic 4G General] rsage:
I started having this problem a few days ago and just solved it. I'm using Handcent for SMS, and even though my phone was set to vibrate, and Handcent notifications were set to vibrate, suddenly all of my notifications (Handcent and otherwise) stopped vibrating. Vibrate still worked on calls. I simply downloaded the free app "Sound Manager" from the Market and went to Vibrate from the Menu. For some reason Vibrate for Notifications was set to "Never". Not sure how, since I don't think there's a setting for this in the stock settings on the Epic, but I changed it and now vibrate works on all notifications again.

To me this is easier than setting something up in Tasker (though Tasker is way cool).
[Epic 4G General] jojo08:
Sweet! Thanks so much its finally working now...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] smithisize:
Is there an app for XDAndroid that will allow the phone to reboot completely, into WinMo? Save a little time?

Regards

Smith
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Soft reset not fast enough for ya? :p

You can do the whole power off routine, but I assume that's what you mean by 'save a little time' - is that is too time consuming, and actually powers off the device.

I'm sure there's a widget or some such thing...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vnes1984:
I use Quick Boot (you can download it from the market) then add the reboot widget to your home screen, one tap and you're set.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] smithisize:
Don't you need root for that? I would obviously assume XDAndroid has root, but idk enough about android haha
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
XDAndroid comes out of the box rooted :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] smithisize:
Yeah, I discovered that when the app worked :D what a nifty feature ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] manekineko:
There's no soft reset in XDAndroid. Are you thinking of Neopeek, where reset is available next to power off by holding down the power button?

But back on point, I was also using Quick Boot for a while, but it reboots so fast, I'm very suspicious of it. I get enough random SD card errors creating FOUND.01 or whatever folders without using reboots that presumably aren't following the shutdown routine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Every phone has a soft reset. There's a little pin you press with the stylus that's under the battery cover... Are you not familiar with hard/soft resets..?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] outerdepth:
Well...actually, if I hold down the end key, it will power down, go silent, blah blah blah. It's a little screen that pops up and shutdown is an option, so it's not just Neopeek's version that can do this. As far as reboot the phone, you are correct that there is no stock way to do this, but as pointed out earlier in this thread there is the app on the market with a reset widget. Otherwise, you could always learn to alter the code and make this option available yourself. That would be cool. I would appreciate it:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastfed:
I read and watch so many contradicting things about this subject, I just cannot seem to understand the truth..

I know Android works off of a linux type of OS, and that the memory function is superior to many others..

I read that having any app killer is actually bad because it drains your battery even more than if you don't have it, that the apps running in the background aren't really running as the memory or most of it is now running the application you're using.

Now what if the app killer program has a function that lets you disable the auto kill, I assume that is the part that runs and drains the battery?

would it be good then? or is it still bad?

Finally if so, do I even bother to close out the applications after a full days use?

It just seems very confusing when a large group of people tell you NO and a large group of people tell you YES.

and its reputable places too, not just amatures

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nukedukem:
I would just like to add to your confusion by saying that I read that the new Android 2.2 API disables the ability to "kill" apps. It can kill background services or something to that effect, so the program is still in memory, but not actively performing operations or something. That's all paraphrased from a 3 month old memory, so take it with a grain of salt, but if that is true, is there any point to a Task Killer if you have Froyo?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notasimpleway:
I say they are bad unless you have rogue apps. And even then they are not needed. Hit Menu-Settings-Applications-Manage Apps-Running Tab-Click App-Kill. But instead of that, you can make a widget on your homescreen that goes straight to it. Long press homescreen-shortcuts-settings-manage applications. Done. I use that when I want to kill a game or something eating CPU. Otherwise I just let Android do its thing. Also, I like Watchdog Lite. It monitors apps using the CPU and alerts you when one exceeds the threshold and gives you option to kill or ignore(app may have a legitimate reason for hogging CPU) the app in question. This is good because app or processes are really only hurting or effecting the battery when they are using the CPU, not RAM. However, another option for task management is Autokiller in the Market. It allows you to change Android's minfree settings, or internal task manager, to kill off apps sooner. I set mine to be aggressive. I actually never worry about task management. Unless Watchdog beeps at me. I think the last time I killed an app was 3 weeks ago. I remember the day Autokiller came out well. I had the HTC Hero back then. To do what that app does I had to change them manually each boot and eventually a script was made to change the settings. Those early days of Android were so much fun. ;D

If anymore questions let us know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
They are just like everything, use in moderation. I use mine all the time but I don't mess with system services and only use it to kill stuff I've been using.

And yes they still work in 2.2 as long as the app is not active
