toast

Yea i was suprised I made it this far too....BUT now my vibrant is toast!! I had it back to stock, woke up this morning and accidentally accepted the J16 OTA from TMO, and now my phone is done done done....I cant get it to do anything, no lights, camera or action. So having no way to get back to download mode I think Im screwed. This was a problem from the gate, cause Samsung gave me the phone from a learning seminar and the 1st J16 MR soft bricked me. So at this point I have searced every forum I can find and I think Im screwed. NOw if I could only get ahold of my Samsung rep to see if they replace it for me....IF anyone has any strokes of genius to maybe help me out please....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadbeef:
I place the Samsung Galaxy S under my pillow and listen to "whiteNoise". That gets me to sleep pretty fast.

The problem is that the battery full indicator switches on the display and leaves it on. (I have the setting activated that while on usb power, leave display on).

This causes the phone to get really hot during the night and I'm scared it might kill it eventually.

So I could toggle the usb option every night, but I really would like that the useless battery full warning could be disabled.

I hoped that Froyo would bring a solution to this problem, but I guess not.

Maybe by posting it here (again?) some bright minds can find the option to disable this warning completely.

Any of you guys experiencing any problems with your G2 after the overclocking?
[G2 and Desire Z General] rockgod:
I am, sorta.

After the screen goes to sleep my Oc reverts back to stock speeds.

There is another thread about it, but no solution so far.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Akulamenuri:
I havent noticed any problems out of the ordinary (The battery drains more but thats suppose to happen).

@rockgod

On SetCpu have you created any profile that activate when the screen is off? After I created a profile and enabled it I no longer have a problem with the overclock going away. You should give that a shot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rockgod:
Actaully I just figured that out a few minutes ago.

But thanks, I installed SetCPU the other day, but hadn't really played with it all that much. Really just wanted to support the developer for his work.
[G2 and Desire Z General] l0ngxnguyen:
hmmm I'm having some wake up lagg...
[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
Ill give u a screenshot. Once I take 1 in about 2 mins. To show u how u could set ur profiles up.

sent from my Evo 4g

This is how I have my profiles set and the battery life I get from it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sheek360:
When I lock my screen I get the same damn problem. It reverts back to stock speeds. Anyone know of a solution?
[G2 and Desire Z General] l0ngxnguyen:
well mine is overclocked to 1.42 i think i should try 1gig and see what happens
[G2 and Desire Z General] TL24:
Do you have the setCPU widget running in the background? If so, that's your problem... I had the same issue where the phone would laggggg after unlocking it and removing the setCPU widget resolved the issue for me - you should give it a shot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
Once u mmmke a profile and set them the way u want them to be make sure u save them. Then restart ur phone and the clock speeds u set will be there.

[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
Did that help u out any?

sent from my Evo 4g
[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
G2's can go up to 1.5ghz but if ur wanting battery life i would recommend dropping down to 1.1 or 1.2 for the first 50% of ur battery and lowering it more as the battery goes down to save battery.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Crey23:
no issues!

I can actually say that I have had less issues after OC than before...I was about to send the phone back!!!!!

I am running VISIONary and @1.42 and running very smooth. I have had a handfull of force close, all of which worked upon retry (not the case before). I have experienced some lag on wake, but is a fraction of a second, and only when the phone sit idle for over an hour...nothing that would make me go back to stock.

As for Battery life, I have been running since 9 am this morning and plugged it is at 2:00 PM when my battery reached 49%.

I am running about 4 different profiles on setCPU, all of which I enabled around 11 or 12 this morning. So overall I am very happy with the battery life I'm getting here.

I have my profiles set as follows:

Screen off: cuts doen to 768k with min at 245k

Battery<40% MAx 768k and min 245k

Battery<20: Max 368k min 245k

Battery<10: Min and Max 245

Temp>40*C Max 768k and min 245k

to screen off

The one thing that I have noticed is that my temps run much cooler with this OC. I am running an average of 88*F, and as low as 82*. Right now under charge I am getting 99.8*when in the past I was getting into the 104*'s, and upto 107*.

I am really liking this mod....I have only rebooted once, and all the settings came back to 1.42.!!!1 Great devise!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
Ok for some reason my post was not added to it. But set ur screen off to 245-max 245-min powersave and priority 100%. Doing it that way makes ur battery not go down when ur screens off and idling.

[G2 and Desire Z General] D.J.CaSpER:
On my setcpu I have 7 profiles overclocking and underclocking. With using the phone for almost everything with off and on heavy use I'm getting about 15 to 16 hours. With just calls and texts and checking the forums every once in awhile i can pull 24 hours on my battery.

I locked my phone to test it out using HTCSense.com however now at HTCSense.com the account is locked. While at my phone i don't see s&*%. I can't send stuff anymore. Does anyone know how to unlock this?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] senaia:
i had same problem while testing too, also my contacts and messages weren't syncing, and phone finder wasn't working. the only thing that did work was ring on full volume. to fix, remove the htcsense account from your phone, log out from the computer and recreate the account on the phone, when you log in to the site it will say no phone connected, just press the button for signed in on the phone and you're all set

it took a few tries for my phone to connect properly, it said my password was wrong about 4 times, but i got there in the end
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SSJVegetto:
Thank you for your reply it helped in the sense that it doesn't say the device is locked anymore however when i press send to phone it doesn't send anything while previously it did! You know how to help this problem?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] dreamdestiny:
I had the same problem but then I was playing with the phone an switched on auto sync which I kept off to save battery an then all of a sudden the phone locked itself an everyone kept txin me since it sent out the txs I did on htcsense.com which previously didnt work. So try it bro
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] superdaddy:
I just F5'd the page
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TeCH-Guruz:
Htcsense.com is f@*k'd it was working for me but now all that works is ring phone
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] xmoo:
For me everything is working correctly.

Some people said you need to start Gtalk, so you can use the full service of htcsense.com
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] combat goofwing:
whats g talk
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] strikexx:
True, that worked for me too.

Make sure Auto Sync is on and set to 'push'

Cheers,
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] wiwaxia:
I read your "tips", del sense accout oh phone, quit htcsense.com, relog and sync phone. OK

Start Gtalk (so I'm sure to try all, but I don't use whis app...).

After a little, and few refresh, login/out finally all the htcsensecom show me my correct position.

Thanx for your info.

My device works fine now with HTCSense.com, I did not do a thing, seems like they fixed some bugs. Lock device works, ring device works, location, sms, people, etc. all are ok.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Hi Guys ,

Right i am massive rally fan i have purposely bought a wildfire and moved from a Samsung wave to get the WRC App that's available for android

when i look in the app store its not there .

But my girlfriend has got it on her Samsung Galaxy S

Any Ideas please

thanks

Chris
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] f0xy:
There will be a way to back it up off your girlfriends phone then send it to the wildfire and install.

failing that download it off the net.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Ok so how can I take it from my girlfriends phone,

And thanks

Chris
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
Go find the app on appbrain, it dls directly to your phone
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Hey mate thanks , but found it in app brain and when I try to download its giving me a error any other ideas

Thanks again
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Can anyone else please help me with this problem , or even maybe have the sdk for download,

Again thanks for any help with this please ,

Chris
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex_GP:
What error do you receive when installing from appbrain?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] a1exander:
Search on google like "*appname* .apk download". I usually find what I search for!

Hey guys , thanks for the replys well still having problems with this .

Any ideas where I can get the apk from please

Thanks

Chris
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] brilldoctor:
Install Astro on both phones, then on the galaxy open it and hit menu-tools-app backup and backup the app to the sd. Then copy the apk found in the backups folder of the sd and install on wildfire (use Astro to find file)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Hey brilldoctor , thanks for the heads up , followed what you said but still no joy

On the galaxy it shows the backed up .apk

Transferred the card to the wildfire and its not there.

Please help if you can,

Thanks

Chris
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] brilldoctor:
Once it's on the wildfire just navigate in Astro to where you copied it to. If not install appbrain and fast web installer and install it from appbrain (read their how tos)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Would it be because I am using a stock romm mate ?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex Slane:
Seem to have found the problem people, whilst i was using the stock romm, the market wont allow me to use it all . Now using openfire all sorted.

Thanks for the help

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrimzonEyed:
As the topic says, whats the difference on hvaing s-off and s-on?

I had a rooted Wildfire and never had S-off on it.

Do i gain anything by S-off my desire?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
If you don't know what it's for then you don't need it...but it basically gives you FULL root access to the /system partition
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zHk3R:
S-OFF makes it so you're not dependant on booting into recovery every single time you edit something in /system

Makes life easier.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Most phones until very recently when you have root it automatically has given you full root. On the desire (and probably all new htc android phones) they have added an extra layer of security that locks the nand while in use. This stops us being able to use things like Fastboot, and adb to edit /system files while booted.

Luckily we always had partial root and could do most things when in a custom recovery.

Now with S-Off or Security Off we can have full access like what a normal root on most phones enables.

So technically your wildfire does not have s-off because it was never s-on in the first place.

+1 alpharev are working on a modified bootloader for the buzz, i rooted and flashed my brothers wildfire yesterday, although rom development looked a bit thin on the ground to me lol as far as i know all htc's come with a security locked bootloader, even back in the days of win mo, we needed hard spl, which was just an unlocked bootloader

[Desire HD General] liteswap:
As an ex-Vodafone customer returning because of the DHD, I managed to negotiate this amazing deal: 300 minutes, unlimited texts, 'unlimited' Internet, 18 months, free phone, £26 a month. The phone arrives next week....

Voda is looking to stem a fall in market share right now so it's a good place to push for a good deal.
[Desire HD General] gavthebarman:
Thats funny because when I tried to negotiate a deal with them to renew my contract with them (bearing in mind it was not as good as a deal you got) they really could not be interested.

So cutting a long story short I have said good bye to voda and hello again t-mobile.
[HD2 General] GLO:
Hi guys,

Just incase you havent heard.

Powermat support the HD2 now.

http://www.powermat.com/us/receivers/htc/receiver-door-for-htc-hd2.html

Bad news is that its sold out!
[HD2 General] g.sembhi:
you can but the bundle for $59.99 which included the battery door and a powermat
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
that is not bad at all considering with the tp2 you had to add this bulky backpiece. Might be a good x-mas investment seeing how we have 3 hd2's laying around.
[HD2 General] solid.snake:
Hi,

Does anyone know if its work with a cover , you know, I mean a hard cover for HD2 ? No interference ?
[HD2 General] InfX:
I just don't get why ppl like this kind of stuff. Don't we get enough RF/EM around us already ? Why add some more, needlessly ?
[HD2 General] Lizzo:
i want one!!! :( gimme gimme gimme!!!
[HD2 General] Airborne Aircrew:
Don't worry mate.. That tin-foil hat you are undoubtedly wearing will protect you... :D
[HD2 General] richteralan:
just a gimmick item. people will realize this sooner (or later)
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
kind of like booting android on a winmo phone?

what's gimmicky about it? Being able to charge up to 3 hd2's through 1 plug means less cords on my desk which will make my wife very happy. I have the energizer mat for the wii remotes and it's easy to throw them on the mat after playing to have them recharge.
[HD2 General] InfX:
That's my head, but what about my balls ?! Nobody invented a tin-foil balls protection yet. Hmmm , maybe i should start selling that

But, actually, my post wasn't a joke. Those things work like a transformer, the mat got the primary winding, the phone part got the secondary one. Even if nothing is charging, it's just a damn coil plugged into the wall, 'transmitting' the mains frequency into the air, pointlessly. Maybe it is completely harmless, but maybe it isn't. And since i usually charge my phone at night, and keep it nearby, this would mean putting this stupid field emitter just next to my head, just for the sake of not plugging a connector in ? Sorry, but no thanks.
[HD2 General] pyrorob:
um, you do know that the way these pads work is thru electro-magnetic induction right? basically a oscillating magnet (a magnet that moves or "vibrates") in the pad produces a electric charge in a wire in the cover that coverts the magnetc field into a charge... from my understanding its the oscillation rate that prevents it from affecting anything else but the wire in the cover.. if your afraid of this you might as well be afraid of refrigerator magnets too.. or hell, any electro-magnetic device.. the speaker in the phone, the alternator in your car, your fan...
[HD2 General] InfX:
You have a strange way of representing it (an oscillating magnet ? :) well, fair enough, an oscillating magnet would certainly create a similar magnetic field).

You are actually correct here, I would NOT want to have an electric motor, a big transformer, alternator, or anything similarly powerful, that emits strong magnetic fields, at about a meter from my head, for an extended period of time, and thats exactly where my phone usually is at nights. Nor i would like a strong DC magnet right next to me all the time. Would you like to be in an MRI room, needlessly ? And, btw, the fact the 'receiver' is tuned to the transmitter frequency doesn't prevent the transmitter from affecting everything else around. Wanna see for yourself ? Try dropping a small metal object on that mat, it should start buzzing on it like crazy, lol. And if it doesn't, the thing probably operates on RF frequencies, that's even worse :-)

PS: The phone speaker and fridge magnets are off the list here for obvious reason, having a very 'low power' fields.
[HD2 General] apallohadas:
Looking at PowerMat's FAQs, looks like it won't work if you have it in a case. Too bad. Wish it'd work with my otterbox.
[HD2 General] hameedx:
Check out the review of the powermat cover for a BlackBerry. Shows it works with a silicon cover

Anybody able to get their hands on one for the HD2 yet?
[HD2 General] MartyLK:
Got mine from Walmart - $49.97. Kinda touchy about where you place your HD2 on the mat. Plus I can't use my clear case with it because the door is too bubbled out. The good thing is, I can still use velcro on the door. It will make sufficient connection through the velcro.
[HD2 General] digao100nocao:
Hello my friend!

Could you take some real photos of the product and put here??

I would like to buy one, but i doubt that if fits with the Otterbox Commuter Case..

Thanks!!
[HD2 General] apallohadas:
I could be wrong, but I doubt that it would work through the rubber and plastic of the OtterBoxes.

I wish they had some type of conductive filament that you could put on the inside and outside of the case.
[HD2 General] digao100nocao:
:(

I think it would charge, but will disconnect more easy..

Well.. I would like to try it anyway.. :rolleyes:

If someone have one of these units, please take some pictures of it in the HD2.

It would be great to see how it is in real..

Thanks!

Hello, I want to buy it but I'm in France and the official site does not send to France (and in the French version of the site this product doesn't exist!), on ebay is the same thing!

Someone have another site who can ship it in my country please?

[HD2 General] bbobeckyj:
It's transmitting only a magnetic field. Are you really worried about that?

Reminds me of the NIMBYs who cried about having power cables nearby, then I see 'health magnets' advertised in magazines :D

What about the phone signal?

And WiFi? TV and Radio transmitters? EMF from power cables? There are many things throwing radio/light/radiation signals at us all day.

EDIT: I just saw your more recent post. Electromagneteic Conduction is the technology used, as stated by the company themselves
[HD2 General] bbobeckyj:
Just like Karl Benz's first car, or the Wright brothers's first flight...

Surely you realise this is the first step towards the ultimate aim of everything being wireless powered
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
I have this for my Wii remotes and I have to admit. It pretty much rules. It's not really a gimmick if it works and people dig it. Plugging things in to charge them will be obsolete in the future man!
[HD2 General] buzz killington:
I am much less worried about the magnetic field on these units than the micro usb port breaking and leaving me up the creek without a paddle. I already have one charger that no longer works, luckily it was the charger end that became loose and not the phone. The HD2 has only the one port for everything, I don't want to chance it.

Mine is on the way, hopefully I'll have it sometime this week. I just hope I won't have any trouble charging it in Android :)
[HD2 General] c_legaspi:
love the wireless charging on my palm pre plus. i had an xperia x1 and the usb charging port is really loose wheni plug it in. that really sucks. this powermat is a good thing for the hd2
[HD2 General] chrisnz1947:
pity powermat US does not ship ouside the states. Any one know of a US retailer that may ship internationally.

UK retailers who sell this product appear to only consider the IPhone.

[HD2 General] cliffordlee:
This reminds me of those oral-b electric toothbrushes which charges this way :D Maybe i'm just paranoid but i just won't trust it. It's like putting my hd2 on top of an induction stove. :eek:
[HD2 General] huggs:
My micro-usb port is already broken. I looked at the pics in the link, but they don't show where this thing plugs into the phone at.

Can somebody who already has one or who knows for sure tell me, does this plug into the micro-usb like alot of the charge mat rcievers that I have seen?

Or does it plug to the 3 contacts next to the sim card?

This might be a nice little addition to the extra battery and external charger that I currently use to keep my phone alive
[HD2 General] cliffordlee:
Yes, that's how the HD2 charges with the original car-kit!

[HD2 General] MartyLK:
Sorry for replying so late. The design of the HD2 battery cover for this device is very unattractive and ugly. It bulges out rather than being flush like the OEM door. I believe they bulged it out to give it a flat surface, but it still is purely ugly and prevents the usage of hard cases.

I didn't take any pictures before returning the one I had. I decided I could live without it and just continue using the usb cable to power mine, which allows me to also continue using my clear hard case.

It's sad the maker can't produce this product with decent looks and quality. Maybe there will be another maker get involved and release one with acceptable looks and sturdy quality.
