I am so scared this not get fix for the HTC :(
[HD7 General] vardig:
mine works fine on my HTC HD7 . . . . ???

The only thing I dont understand is that the Avatar is 2D and not animated !????
[HD7 General] frontieruk:
you using Live Extras? the Avatar is 3d in that, which also happens to be the app not working mainly on the HTC handsets...
[HD7 General] risq:
If he's only had his phone for a day or so, he won't see it. Seems the XBL extra app was pulled to be fixed, at least on the HTC's.
[HD7 General] frontieruk:
was just mentioning why his Live wasn't crashing like the rest of us... oh wait I reset my phone so I've not got it either lol oh well it'll reappear working hopefully, and has HTC updated 6 of their apps already?
[HD7 General] aaronio:
I hope I was the beta user... I dont mind dealing with initial issues but be the first one to have new phone availability.

I need to buy my phones in Europe and ship them to Mexico because if I wait for Mexican companies to introduce them I will wait a year and will pay double the price (we have the worst Phone companies).
[HD7 General] risq:
It's normally the other way round and then we're complaining they get it first.....lol

Can't have it all ways.
[HD7 General] lumpaywk:
does anyone know what the deal is with live extras at the moment, i have been looking for updates but it seems my google skills suck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RichTJ99:
Hi,

I was curious if there is some way to get decent photos for caller ID? I have exchange & get that it is trying to limit photos to 96x96 but is there some way to get around that?

Does exchange 2010 support larger photos?

Thanks,

Rich
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khov07:
I know this has been addressed before, but I'm sleepy and don't feel like searching through the forums.

Essentially, it has something to do with the way Sense handles those photos. To get nice, crisp photos in your caller ID, you have to use a photo that is already on your device (camera pic, transferred from your PC over USB, email/MMS, etc.), and assign them to your contacts.

If you use your desktop Exchange client to add photos, they will appear terrible.

I received a RED rubberized snap-on hard case for the Captivate by mistake from an ebay seller. This great seller immediately corrected the mistake and sent me the proper case I wanted, and let me keep the hard case. Great seller!

At any rate, I don't need this hard case. Its unused, although I did open the package to look at it.

Here is a link to an orange case, I cannot find a red one on ebay. It is bright and a bit iridescent like this one, but RED:

What a nice thing to do.
[Captivate Accessories] elalexdesiempre:
So speaking of cases. I got this one case that i love. It is a soft gel skin case.

It doesnt add too much bulk to the phone. It doesnt block any buttons.

I havent dropped this phone but i feel that using this case it should be able to absorbed the fall. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking into for a protective case.

Amzer Argyle Skin Case

I would post the link for the item on amazon.com which is where i bought it, but im not allowed to post links.

I've searched this topic without success so I'm sorry if this has already been answered.

Im running the leaked ji6 and want to try dg's aosp rom. I really like my current setup and want to back up my ROM in case I want to go back. I have never tried to create a backup using rom manager when running 2.1 so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I'm not able to create a backup. Does rom manager work with 2.2?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] KCRic:
I decided to post this after doing some research and putting off testing this for a while now. I know editing the radio options in the build.prop has been tossed around as a whisper in dark hallways for a while now but no one has really seemed to do it and see what happens. This is just for the Slide in America, I have no clue if it will work in europe, though I've heard it does.

All I've done is edit the following lines:

ro.wifi.channels
ro.ril.gprsclass
ro.ril.hsdpa.category
ro.ril.hsupa.category
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval
ro.ril.gprsclass
ro.ril.enable.3G.prefix

Editing the wifi scan interval should save on battery (it's set at 60s now instead of 15s), the 3G prefix is 0 by default and I think it's just asthetic even though I haven't noticed it yet. There are 2 ro.ril.gprsclass listings and usually they are different classes, I set them both to the same class. Lastly, the wifi channels were (on my rom at least) set to "blank" and I figured that might be an issue for some of the roms that have trouble with wifi so I set that 14.

I won't say that this will increase your speed or help lock on to 'H' or '3G' more, you'll just have to test it for yourself and see if you notice anything. If enough people do try this I'll put up a poll to see if editing the class or wifi settings actually helps.

Back up your original before you push this (of course you're in recovery).

adb pull /system/build.prop <path to where ever>

Then to push it:

adb push <path to new file> /system/

I'm not taking credit for this, I'm sure I'm not the first or last to do this:D

[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
interesting. is there a ROM out?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
I remember looking at that last year.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] B-Nice_88:
anyone know of any developers willing to help port??...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] B-Nice_88:
No there isn't a ROM out that I know of. Still researching trying to get a source or something...lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
Dude, then why are you trying to rally devs? lol Get the source first.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vrekk:
This is just a youtube link lol, its impossible to even attempt porting without having anything to port.

This is still experimental so I don't think we will get our hands on it any time soon. If it really is a Linux based OS and we get the source, a port is probably possible.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Most are convinced its vaporware... you can't port anything without something to port it from.
[Android Software Development] bperolli:
I've had a myTouch 3G for a while, and got bored with it, so I rooted it. It's currently at Cyanogen Mod 5.0.8. I got a text saying that Froyo(2.2) was coming to myTouch 10/13 through 10/21. Is there anyway I will receive this update while I'm using Cyanogen Mod? And if I can't, is there anyway I can get back to Donut(1.6)?
[Android Software Development] m4nu4l:
You will have to flash it into your device. As i know theres no way to downgrade android os.
[Android Software Development] bperolli:
I just got back into 1.5(I think) through a SAPPIMG.NBH file at theunlockr.com. What I can't figure out though, is how I can get past the sign in page. I need a 3G or EDGE connection, but my SIM doesn't have that. I used to do it with my cousin's SIM(Has 3G), but since I probably won't see him over the weekend, I need an alternative. Is there anyway I can bypass the, "Welcome to T-MOBILE myTouch 3G" screen? I tried the four corners solution, but to no avail. Is there maybe a certain APN Setting someone can post for me?
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] jcrawshaw:
We have a fantasy football league at work through CBS sports, and one of my friends has an HTC Aria through ATT, and for the life of us, we're wondering is there a way to install the CBS Pro Football app on this phone? It doesn't come up in the marketplace at all for her. I've tried going through appbrain, and that doesn't work, and the one trick I read of bypassing ATT's limited market by enabling airplane mode and going through wifi, and that didn't work either. Any ideas at all?
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] zervic:
Shoot me a pm with your email and I will email you the APK. As long as you can push the APK to your phone and you have unknown sources enabled then you should be able to get it installed
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
I have built a Froyo ROM from source. I got the Captivate vendor files from Krylon360 over at Cyanogen, updated them, and built a ROM. I was able to get the leaked Froyo Captivate system.img and extract it so I could get the files required for our device. The ROM build cleanly and I was able to restore it to my device but since I have an Eclair kernel it will not boot. I actually read later in a forum that an Eclair kernel won't boot a Froyo system.

Anyway, I am looking for anyone who has a Captivate with the leaked Froyo build installed to try and restore my ROM. It will not brick your phone, I promise. I took a Nandroid backup before restoring and when I saw why it wasn't booting in logcat I booted into recovery and restored my last backup.

I just want to see if this guy will boot properly with a Froyo kernel and also see if I have all the device drivers working, etc.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
Just replied to your other post :P Let's do this!
[Captivate Android Development] gtg465x:
Sounds pretty awesome, but why didn't you just flash a Froyo kernel on your phone? Upload it and post up a link so we can see what you have.
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
He's not running windows and therefore can't use ODIN to swap kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] tweek1020:
I was planning on flashing to Cog beta 8 today anyway.... I can give it a try.
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
Flashing requires Odin which requires Windows which I do not have. :(

I will post a dropbox link in a few minutes.

I built without kernel so if the ramdisk.img gives you grief, exclude it from the backup and also remove it from nandroid.md5.

In fact you should only need to restore system.img.
[Captivate Android Development] aqtrans:
Just saw the above post...I'll be anxiously awaiting the link. :D
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
Thanks, guys. Remember, I am doing this for ALL OF US.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6995251/full_captivate.tgz

Like I said, you should only need system.img. So basically, edit nandroid.md5 and strip out the checksums for the other two files. Then copy nandroid.md5 and system.img to your recovery directory. Mine is /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup.

Report back what you find.
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
If you have the sdk installed, please use adb logcat to get me any details. I am working with a couple of guys who work on both Cyanogen and Cognition to hash the details out. Like I said, I got all the hardware-specific files dialed in so we should be okay.
[Captivate Android Development] pchic:
downloading now and will give it a shot..i have a test captivate so I dont mind bricking it.
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
Thanks. I wanted to go the AOSP route because I think what happens is.. People are modding the factory carrier images but you don't always know what's in there and can end up with crap you don't need. Plus, this is the latest 2.2.1 from AOSP.
[Captivate Android Development] gtg465x:
Restoring it now...
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
You can swap kernels using redbend if you have 2e recovery (which he should considering that he is on Eclair). You can also flash using the open source alternative to Odin that is available here.
[Captivate Android Development] 2kgt:
Any screenshots?

What are the specs of this Rom? Is it completely AOSP?
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
Please point me to this alternative.
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
100% AOSP 2.2.1 with Samsung-specific stuff pulled in via extract-files.sh.
[Captivate Android Development] gdanko:
Awesome. If it comes up, check system info to see if the name and all that is correct. Also see if Bluetooth, WiFi, etc work.
[Captivate Android Development] aqtrans:
Heimdall is it's name. I can attest for it's stability. I've used it quite a few times on Archlinux when I didn't feel like booting into Windows. One note is you always need to give it a PIT file.
[Captivate Android Development] pchic:
you want this loaded thru ODIN?
[Captivate Android Development] gtg465x:

Yeah I did but none look fully stock....they all seem to add a few things to "sweeten the rom". I just want stock.
[Fascinate General] Sherwood1:
Incase I wasnt clear I meant stock Android 2.1..........not Touchwiz stock 2.1. Touchwiz is sooooooooooo slow and crappy!!

I installed launcherpro with the widgets. But it kills me knowing touchwiz is still running.
[Fascinate General] wasupwithuman:
Stock, is what comes with the phone... why do anything, if you want stock?

Now if your talking about AOSP (Just plain google rom) then NO. There is no AOSP rom, as of right now. There are a few people working on it though.

[HD7 General] timfoster:
Is the HD7 Pro no longer being released?

I checked the HTC site earlier today and it was there. Now I look and it's gone. The only one I can find is the HD7 (without the keyboard).

I spoke to Vodaphone earlier and they said they were expecting it to be released, but that was just the sales monkey so it could mean anything. I can't find it on any of the usual SIM-free sales sites, even on pre-order.

Any ideas anyone?
[HD7 General] mnd_bg:
Yep I've noticed the same earlier, they just took it off from the website

I read somewhere few days ago it will be on the market later than the HD7 and the other HTC WP7 devices. They were saying it will be available in the UK just before Xmas
[HD7 General] timfoster:
OK. What's going on with the HD7 Pro?

It's being released on 10th (this Thursday) yet all of the UK networks say they aren't stocking it. This is supposed to be the flagship HTC business phone, but if none of the networks are going to be stocking it how can it possibly be?
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Maybe because it isn't an HD7 Pro.

HTC 7 Pro
[HD7 General] timfoster:
Whether it's the 7 Pro or the HD7 Pro makes no difference. Vodafone, T-Mobile, O2 and Orange aren't stocking it either according to their websites or their customer services departments. Clove Technology are showing it as in stock (SIM free obviously) on their website though.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Don't know about the Euro markets. Seems like O2 had it?

In the US it will be a Sprint exclusive.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
http://www.dialtosave.co.uk/mobile/...starts-shipping-in-the-uk-available-to-order/
[HD7 General] timfoster:
Yes, I've seen that article Jim. Clove were saying in January that it would be released to the networks first. That was before they were listing it as coming on 10th. Now they're showing it as in stock. It would be very unusual for the networks to get second bite when the likes of Clove, who let's face it, aren't massive players in the market already have it.

According to Vodafone, the adverts for it on contracts with all the networks are sim free models that are unlocked and simply associated with a contract sim. They're all personal deals too. We have a business contract and so I want multiple devices on the same contract. None of these companies are offering business contracts.

I'm going to call HTC tomorrow and ask them which networks are going to be stocking it. I don't really expect them to tell me, their customer service is very non-commital, but it's worth a go.
[HD7 General] pNoyr3D:
Seems to be on the website to me..
[HD7 General] timfoster:
On which website? I can see it on Clove (£360+VAT) and I can see it on the HTC website, but none of the networks have it.
[HD7 General] EddyOS:
You'll be able to get it from 3rd party retailers on contracts - probably mean you get the SIM free variant and not some vendor-locked version with tons of demo software on it
[HD7 General] timfoster:
Most third party vendors won't do business contracts with multple handsets though. I've gone to SIM only (12 month deal) and bought one from Clove. The other handsets I'll get from Clove too when everyone decides what they want.

It still seems bizzare that the networks haven't got it at all. I wonder if that will be the same for the HTC 7 Surround?
[HD7 General] jasonsharp:
maybe it's call HDD, not HD7 pro
[HD7 General] timfoster:
Nope, it's the HTC 7 Pro. I bought one from Clove. I'm not massively impressed though. No SD slot, no sticky shift key, no phone key, and I really can't get to grips with the wp7 interface (although I accept this one is down to me!)
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Give it a few days. You'll love it.

For sticky shift just double tap shift I do believe.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tonyspinners:
I had to turn off my Htc Tilt 2 because t froze (I do this all the time by the way) But this time when I turned it back on, the lock screen wallpaper was a different color, and when I tried my password it didn't work, Now I;m not retarded (In know my password and I tried to eneter a lot of times) and I even tried "0000" cause that's ususally the default password. I also tried to hook it up to the computer to reset it or soemthing and I cant use it on the computer cause I have to unlock the phone first (Prett stupid) And I tried to soft reset it (Take the battery, press the reset) and that didn't work, What do I do?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dsdmarin:
I had the same issue....after many attempts to fix w/o a hard reset, I realized it was my only option...

To perform a Tilt 2 hard reset

1. With the device turned off, press and hold the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons until you see message on the screen.

2. Release the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons.

3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
Yep, hard reset is your only option. There are many, many reports of TP2/Tilt2 mysteriously forgetting unlock passwords. Personally, I wouldn't use one with this phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
Next time use a different lock app like S2U2. If you require enterprise level security on your device, then don't use it. As a general lock, it's wonderful, though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZaCaptivate:
After a failed attempt to get the FightSpit battery mod w/ evo black bar, my phone was just a black screen after the two opening boot animations.

I finally got odin to work. It allowed me to boot my phone, but when i did, the unlock screen said

"no SIM inserted. Please insert and reboot. You may still emergency call."

I did, however, have my SIM card inserted. Obviously, after i unlocked the lock screen, the default home screen and other side screens were there, with the search at the top, contacts, messaging, camera, and market at the bottom, widgets to the left, etc. Obviously none of my apps were present.

Just wondering why it won't recognize my SIM card and hopefully how to solve it. Thanks in advance. You guys are great.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZaCaptivate:
I don't know anything about odin, or android development in general, but my logic is thinking that if odin restored my phone to 2.1 or 2.2, my sd card had unofficial 2.2 from designgears, so maybe it's not recognizing it since it is not the same OS. Am I even close?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv:
Did you remove the sim during the odin flash?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
Sorry. Not even close.

If you bothered to read the Odin thread you would see this. Please note what I have bolded in the quote:

Hopefully your SIM card isn't really ruined. If it is, then it's going to cost you $25 at AT&T to replace it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZaCaptivate:
yes, i did remove the SIM card during the odin one-click
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv:
Have you checked to make sure you put it back in the right way? - I only ask because I put mine in the wrong direction one time and it took me 15 min to figure out what I did.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZaCaptivate:
You, my good man, are a genius

Any tips on where to go now? Is my phone still rooted? Do i need to root? Am i still running unofficial 2.2?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv:
there are two different odin one clicks - one that is jf6 eclair 2.1 and one that is ji6 froyo 2.2 - which ever one you flashed is the one you have.

You will not be rooted with either - you will have to know which firmware you have to find what rooting method you need - there are multiple ways to root either, but no one that works the same for both.

as for where to go from there, I say check out the different baked roms that are available in the dev section - I like dg's cog.
