Paypal is instant unless the person is paying with a credit card but if the person buying it has paypal it is instant payment.
[EVO 4G General] Franteeko:
I was just reading the finer details about it and it does say that they may hold the payment until positive feedback is issued from the buyer. It said they like to do that for new accounts, which i am =\
[EVO 4G General] leebo:
eBay has some drawbacks, but you may get more for the phone.

With CL, you have to name the price you want, then hope somebody wants it for that price. Plus there's the "flake" factor. Waiting for them to come and they never do, etc.

I had a several year old HP wireless printer that I was un-able to GIVE away on CL earlier this year. Your EVO will definitely be more in demand however.

eBay is more of a, I don't need the money tomorrow kind of thing. However, you can go to their help section and read "Canceling an auction".
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
I've had Paypal for about 5 years and the rules still apply. It's only instant if I were to send you $50 today because it doesn't involve a middle man such as eBay. I would just sell it on Craigslist and take the hit on negative feedback. It will mess up your feedback rating but you'll have the money faster.

If someone on XDA buys it and sends payment then it's instant but you still have to wait to take the money and transfer to your bank account.

I have a Paypal mastercard debit (free) so that if I get payment I withdraw with the debit card and deposit at a chase atm.

[EVO 4G General] kuthedude:
As an ebay user for years, I can testify to the Paypal BS. I am a trusted user etc...all that good stuff. When I sell anything I still have to wait for positive feedback etc. It can get REALLY annoying. So basically I have to wait for the other party to leave feedback, even though I am trusted/100%/paypal power user/confirmed etc. It gets annoying when you just want to transfer ur money.

That being said, there is only 1 way to get your ebay reputation up....and that is to sell... I think I am still bounded by the delayed payment because I only sell things randomly...I am not a store
[EVO 4G General] rockethot:
That's odd, when ever I sell I never have to wait for Payment. The funds are never held for me.
[EVO 4G General] kuthedude:
It is probably because I only sell things like 3 times a year max. When I asked them about it, it was more of a hassle than to find out why. Everything was eventually released etc, but still annoying to wait.

Android Gmail app, is it push notifications? cause sometimes when its on, i dont receive my mail instantly , well not untill i press sync manually, i have all the background data and auto sync enabled any ideas?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ranger61878:
Yes it is push.

Try clearing mail data and let it reload/resync contacts from Gmail. That typically helps.

Please everyone, what is the best backup so far for HTC Desire? Backup pro or Nand backup or Titanium backup?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IamMartin:
I use Titanium Backup and it works really well. I haven't tried the others as I've had no reason to seek out an alternative.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
Stupid question maybe, i know that Titanium backup all the app and app data..this means backup also the sms messages?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
Anyone?? Will Titanium backup do a backup of SMS messages/Call Logs??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSkeet:
I use my backup pro. It savers all sms mms etc... Don't know if it stores app data tho
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CheesySeb:
titanium backs up everything, wallpaper, app settings, game high scores, wifi connection settings, custom keyboard dictionary, system settings,....

Literally THE LOT apart from the actual ROM itself.

If you wanna take a 'snapshot' of the phone for backup purposes, just use NANDroid from clockworkmod. Only problem is you can't refresh those kind of backups, you've got to manually do new backups and delete old redundant ones.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IamMartin:
I use an app called SMS Backup & Restore. It works really well and it had scheduled backups, etc. It's also free. What you can do is have Titanium Backup make a backup of SMS Backup & Restore and then use that to restore SMS.

NOTE that SMS Backup & Restore stores your backed up messages onto the SD card so when you do a factory reset before installing new ROMs, it DOESN'T wipe your messages.

Also, you know about the Notification Bar swipe for brightness feature, right? ..just to make sure. I thought my brightness was all screwy the first few days I had the phone.. then figured out what the prob was.

If none of those, I had brightness issues (with autobright on) with the 10/17 mixedup kernel. I'm pretty sure GeniusDog's new version addressed these sensor issues, but haven't tested it out yet.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
Love this site, have tried almost every rom out there. Here is what I would like. Basic froyo, dont need sense but also dont mind it. wifi tether, mms with pics both ways, good internet, pdf, office, camera with video capabilities, sync with ms outlook, google maps and nav. Basically a smartphone rom. I dont do music on my phone as I get that in the car and home, I dont do much video as I have a wdtv player and membership to a good site. I need smartphone stuff, not media stuff. I dont know if it is possible to strip a rom down and then let people install what they want, im not that smart, lol. I got this phone to replace my last 2 htc windows phones in which I also got alot of roms here. I dont know if it can be done, i here so many people complaining about their youtube or pandora not working, well I am a business man and could care less about that stuff. I want basic SMART ROM. Can it be done?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmichaelow:
I'm a bit confused about what you want. It sounds as if you just want a stock ROM. Which means you should either get the Leaked OTA, or Virtuous.

You did mention stripped down though, so I would point you towards Feather or Stripped Froyo.

Are you SURE you've tried every ROM?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
I do want stripped down. apps can be installed later if you need them. Just lookign for the basic of the basic. Do need a camera, like pic mms to work, could not get anywhere with the 2 you mentioned. dont need sense, although it is nice since I come from htc windows phones. I guess I dont need all the crap. facebook, youtube, pandora, etc........ most can be accessed from the internet anyways. I want fast internet, good smartphone stuff. If I had the time and the wife wouldnt shoot me for just playin with the phone, I would love to try it, but, alas, I have to work to much. I am in insurance and use my phoen for internet, tethering, email, camera, pdf, and basic stuff. This phone is great, I think if it had a basic rom, with the options to put other apps on, it could smoke even faster. dont know if that helps ya or not. but thanks for the reply man, preshe8it
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
fyi, i have found redemption roms to be the fastest with the best battery life for the way I use the phone, alot of internet, email, tethering. not alot of music or videos. It is the closest to a smartphone rom that I think there is. If he removed alot of the extra apps, that thing would smoke.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james_pnut:
Yeah your wanting to try the feather rom. Everything has been taking out. And if you want to add anything, its right there for the mods. Its up to you what you want to add back. It has the bare essentials for the rom to run. You want barebones I point you in this direction. Hopes it helps. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=809541

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] di11igaf:
so im not sure if this is just the particular i9000 rom that im using with reorient kernel or this will happen with all of them, but all the buttons work fine, and haptic feedback works on all of the buttons except for the home button. while this is not a huge issue, it bugs me and ive been looking into trying to fix it. i dont think this is a reorient kernel issue since all the buttons work fine, i think it has to do with the i9000 having only 3 buttons total, and the main home button is a hard key. so ive found in /lib/modules the vibrator.ko module but im not sure if this is relevant or not. also in /system/usr/keylayout melfas-touchkey.kl has the key layouts for the 4 main keys and the home key is key 139. so im guessing that there is a file somewhere that has the haptic feedback controls and button 139 has to be added into this file, but i cant find it. or maybe im completely wrong.

anybody got any ideas, tips or solutions?

thanks in advance.

How do I change it?...right now its set to the blurry one, I have the fallout theme and wanna change it to a fallout wallpaper.

[HD2 General] pteradactyle:
no it doesnt
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
it has been way too long since i used WM6.5...but if i remember correctly, there are THREE wallpapers that can be set independently of one another:

1. the lock screen wallpaper (there are tools to set this but can also be manually set by placing a path to whatever wallpaper you want in some lock screen XML file)

2. the start menu wallpaper (same as your homescreen wallpaper

when Sense is NOT running

)...you can set this by going into Settings->Personal->Themes (i seriously don't remember the exact way to get to the theme settings)

3. this wallpaper takes effect when Sense is set as your homescreen. it can be set from within some menu of Sense itself.

i think you are asking about point 2 above...see if that helps!

I have a Tmobile HD2 with SPL 2.10. I am trying to downgrade it to 1.42 so that way I can install HSPL and flash my Radio rom to the latest version.

How do I downgrade my SPL to 1.42 in order to install HSPL?

Basic info about my HD2:

ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE

ROM Date 4/28/10

Radio version: 2.10.50.26

Also, how do i figure out if my HD2 is 1024leo?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zythyr:
Ignore my question above. I answered it myself by viewing this topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653614

I have another question. So it seems my HD2 is a 1024leo.

1) How do I know if this rom, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=595318, is compatible with my 1024leo?

2) If I ever want to roll back to the default non-custom rom, is this possible? If so so where do I download the original stock rom? And how do I make sure I am downloading the compatible one so I don't brick my phone?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metko:
yes you can rollback to stock rom just download it from http://www.htc.com

and you will know is it compatible with your phone because to download stock you have to neter your serial wich tells htc that you have a tmous

Also, as for custom ROM how do I figure out which one is compatible with my HD2? I don't want to end up bricking it. I remember reading somewhere that since my HD2 is a 1024leo, I can't flash certain radio roms and custom roms. How do I know which ones I can't flash?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
lmao, you can tell because the first sentence says "These roms are TMO-US compatible."

Your phone = 1024leo = tmous = TMO-US

you are in the wrong forum. This is the forum for the regular hd2, you need THIS tmous specific section. Go there and read, read some more, then read again. This time next week you will know all you need to know.

The most important thing for you to remember is NEVER NEVER NEVER flash ANY stock rom that is not for the tmous, and NEVER NEVER NEVER flash any radio that has a 51 in the version. Example 2.07.51.x radio will totally destroy your phone. (See the first few posts in the tmous radio thread.)

Cloud to SMS allows you to send messages from your browser, through your phone using the Android notification system (C2DM). The purpose of the app is to allow users (You!) to send SMS messages using their phones existing carrier account without having to touch their phone.

Requires Froyo (Android 2.2) or higher.

Beta of "free" version released to marketplace.

Allows you to send up to 7 messages a day, premium version beta coming in a few days with a release in about 2 weeks.

Grab the beta of the Chrome extension here: http://www.cloudtosms.com/files/cloudtosms-chrome-extension.crx

Feedback welcome :)
[Android Apps and Games] roflharrison:
In case anyone is interested, this app is now in Beta and I will be releasing it to market soon.

Send and receive SMS messages from the website

All messages secured by SSL both ways

I will be making a Chrome plugin very soon so you don't need to browse to the website to send/receive.

This app has a ton of potential. Can't wait for that Chrome extension!
[Android Apps and Games] user_error:
I could see this having a ton of uses. One being it could grab an entire group of contacts from your Gmail account (or export them from what ever place you prefer to store your contacts and import them directly to the online app -though kind of a concern issue for obvious security reasons). Then you could send bulk Txt's much easier than directly on the phone. It could even schedule them, etc. I frequently have to send out mass texts to different groups and it could save me a lot of time every week if it had those functions.

Feel free to PM me for brainstorming!
[Android Apps and Games] roflharrison:
Thanks for the feedback.

Will definitely add "Groups" in a future version of the webapp.

I don't store any contacts on the server, its all handled by javascript on the client side (e.g. by your computers browser). If there are other contact sources that work like the Google Contacts API (e.g. allow un-cached display of contacts) I could attempt to add support.

Scheduling is an interesting idea and something to consider in future versions.

One thing to keep in mind is Google limit the amount of messages sent through C2DM, so bulk messages would only work to a certain point.

This is an awesome app!!! Runs fast and smooth on my Desire with Teppics pre-rooted stock rom.

Two things:

I would like to able to prevent the notification sound when sending messages. I thought I could turn it off in Settings but either I cannot understand the meaning of "Use notification sound" or the feature doesn't work ;-)

Also an option to prevent the status bar notification icon and notification entry would be nice.

Otherwise awesome!

[edit]

Oh! One more thing: The web page (https://cloudtosms.appspot.com/) seems to hang when fetching contacts (I have about 250 contacts)...

And of course Google Apps support would also be nice so that I don't have to manually export/import my contacts between two accounts.
