Do you have access to another battery? I would try that first. This is not a software issue, if new battery doesn't fix it... you may be better off getting another G1 of CL or Ebay (I hear of folks picking them up for less then $50 nowadays)

I have a HTC wildfire on Orange which is rooted.

I would like to unroot, however when i go to download from shipped roms the downloads dont start, and when they do they only download a few kb and the RUU does not work

Does anybody have a mirror download or solution, thanks

If there is one thing I regret from my old HD2 running WM6.5.3 it's Google Maps.

I just cannot stand Bing Maps. This soft is just terrible and totally useless for customers outside the U.S.

The maps are not accurate, and doesn't even include basic Local Search.

Try to search the word "Hotel" in Paris and Bing Maps will find you some cities named Hotel !!!!!!

Fair if Microsoft wants to impose Bing instead of Google in its WP7 devices, but only if the soft is ready to use and decent. Outside the US it is NOT.

So, did anybody find a good alternative soft that could replace this crappy Bing Maps? :(

Any chance we will have Google Maps on WP7 in the future?

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Zedox:
Not any at this time. It depends if Google desides to make an app or not.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Ok, thanks for the answer ;)

I hope Google will do that, because I definitely think Bing maps is a real mess (at least in Europe, I don't know if it's the same in the US).
[Windows Phone 7 General] jedix:
Am pretty sure google will do a version for it, its a market share they need and co-pilot will be working on a nav system for it. If they can include iOS they will include us.

Only thing for google at the moment is the net version :s

This guy here seems to be working on a few things which might come good by merging bing with google :)

I have no problems with Bing Maps, but I live in the US....so yeah. I'd love to see GMaps on WP7 (and there should be at some point).

The only thing I miss is latitude, that was genuinely useful for meeting up with friends in an unknown place.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Apparently, Bing Maps indeed works fine in the US and UK.

But in France it's a real mess. The search engine is the worst I've ever seen.

(title of the post modified)
[Windows Phone 7 General] wheresmybeaver:
Irish version of Bing is pants. They have NO poi data, ie restaurants, amenities, etc. However, they do have lots of satellite imagery, and birds eye views for many of the larger cities.

And when you hit the search button in Bing Maps in WP7, you don't get any local results for the map. ie it's not possible to find an address on the map.

If someone would release an app with most of the bing imagery and UI, but would Google data laid over, that would be ideal (Google does have local data for Ireland).
[Windows Phone 7 General] AceofSpades25:
I disagree I love Bing, and would use Bing maps (in the UK) if it was up to scratch. It's business/POI data is sparse at best.

ITO functionality it has a log way to go before it even comes close to the functionality google maps provides on WM6.5
[Windows Phone 7 General] TschonDoe:
Bing Maps is the same useless papermap in Germany as in the rest of mainland Europe, no POIs whatsoever.

Plus, it doesn't show me which way I'm facing. I thouhgt there's a compass built into every Windows Phone 7 Device !?

Can you try this and see if it changes anything?
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
I tried exactly the same search with the word "McDonald's" in the center of Paris, and Bing Maps suddenly displayed a world wide map with absolutely no result. No POI, no address, nothing.

Maybe McDonald's restaurants are not famous enough for Bing?

It's ridiculous.

Also the quality of the graphics is so poor. The streets are all so blurry. The location is wrong. It takes minutes and minutes to download the full map.
[Windows Phone 7 General] OnlinePredator:
Yep have to admit there are a lot of things I'm not so happy about with certain win phone 7 phones, but bing maps is the only reason I am holding off.

I have been trying to use Bing maps on my pc to try and get used to it, but it is useless.

I am in Australia and confirm that yes it does have ALOT of POI's (not as many as google but enough), BUT it is near impossible to use. It is not intuitive, if I am zoomed into my location, then search "Indian Restaurants", it will zoom out and go to india. I have to choose businesses, and enter a location such as "Indian Restaurant Brisbane Australia".

On top of that it seems very unreliable with results, The same search but move the map slightly in one direction removes a bunch of points on the map and generates new ones elsewhere. I was looking directly at a point, zoomed into it and it vanishes.....right...
[Windows Phone 7 General] TschonDoe:
Unbelievable, Bing Maps DOES have POIs here in Germany!

Dude this is for adb, not for recognizing the USB...

[General Questions and Answers] benholiio:
I'm assuming thisisspeedy got to the same stage i did: USB connects, i can access files through maverick, however adb won't detect the device to allow push/pull/shell.

simply elevating to root & editing the bash script on maverick solves the problem.

I have my Galaxy S connected to Maverick via USB, and i can run all ADB functions.

It should work for HTC using the correct code. If you have a problem with Ubuntu detecting your device on USB when you've set USB to mount on Android, PM me and I'll see if i can help.

[QUOTEThe Android Debug Bridge (adb) is a tool lets you manage the state of an emulator instance or Android-powered device.

I was trying to run it for the first time on my ubuntu 9.10 box and I kept getting this error:

desktop:~/dev/Android/android-sdk-linux/tools$ adb

No command 'adb' found, did you mean:

Command 'cdb' from package 'tinycdb' (main)

Command 'gdb' from package 'gdb' (main)

Command 'aub' from package 'aub' (universe)

Command 'dab' from package 'bsdgames' (universe)

Command 'mdb' from package 'mono-debugger' (universe)

Command 'arb' from package 'arb' (multiverse)

Command 'tdb' from package 'tads2-dev' (multiverse)

Command 'pdb' from package 'python' (main)

Command 'jdb' from package 'openjdk-6-jdk' (main)

Command 'jdb' from package 'sun-java6-jdk' (multiverse)

Command 'ab' from package 'apache2-utils' (main)

adb: command not found

What was I doing wrong?

A quick google search shows me the error of my ways.. I haven't added my Android SDK tools directory to my system path!

It should go something like this...

open a terminal window and type:

$ echo $PATH

---(should return the directories associated with $PATH)

$ export PATH=$PATH:/home/YOUR-USERNAME/sdk/tools

---(replace with path to your tools directory, you may need to add 'sudo' to the beginning of this cmd)

$ echo $PATH

---(you should now see your tools directory added to the end of the $PATH variable)

$ adb devices

---(now adb should do something, if nothing else at least error, no devices)

And now I get:

List of devices attached

emulator-5554 device

Sweet Success!

p.s. Adding to the system path in Windows is along the lines of :

right-click '(My) Computer'

Select 'Properties'

Go to 'Advanced' or whatever tab you find 'Environment Variables'

Select 'Path' then 'Edit' and add your new path in.][/QUOTE]

============================================================

THANK YOU!! (I did hit 'THANKS' as well)...

You pointed me in the right direction with Ubuntu 10.04.

The only change was with SDK..the 'adb' has moved to $ ~/platform-tools/

By the way folks, when you install SDK, it would be wise to do all the updates, otherwise the platform-tools folder won't be an option....:cyclops:

Hey guys,

I flashed the froyo rom (i9000xxjpm) on my i9000m and ever since I've had bad reception on the phone. Everything works perfectly fine except that. I used to have 4 bars always at home and work but now i get 2 bars most of the time. Its not only the bars I'm worried about, sometimes people call me and my phone acts as if it's off because i have no reception. I'm using the Canadian version of i9000m under Rogers network. The phone is originally from Bell. I also installed other compatible 2.1 roms on this phone but the problem persists. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok so I have to admit that in the middle of my excitement, I overlooked this and bought an HTC Legend International version from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0035ER8OO/ref=oss_product)

Where I live, we get 3G 850Mhz (similar to AT&T), but this phone being international and all only supports 3G on 900/2100 Mhz. I do get GSM 850 with super-slow Edge connection, but no 3G, which is like having a hot woman and not being able to "do" her.

My question is, can the radio on this phone be flashed to converto to 3G 850 (NAM Version) or is it my only option to sell this phone immediately?

[Desire HD General] skimminstones:
Been waiting for this phone since it was announced for my upgrade. T-Mobile UK shops should be getting it in either next week or week after. But having read through as much of this forum as i can stomach it seems there are so many unhappy people. Proximity sensor issues, lagging issues, battery issues, navigation issues etc....

So whats the verdict of you people that have one then? Are you glad youve got it? Are the issues really that widespread or is it isolated from the initial batch? I really dont want to dive in and get the phone all excitedly and then find these problems are major ones.
[Desire HD General] lynxboy:
One thing you have to bear in mind with forums are that people tend to voice their opinion when they are unhappy. They are less likely to start threads stating how great the experience is going or about things they like!

Personally I can't find any real faults with the phone. There are little nags, such as the power button being hard to press but nothing that takes away from the overall experience. The battery life is poor over the first couple of days but it's looking like this resolves itself after the li-ion is conditioned.

Working for a major UK phone network, I get my hands on every handset going and nothing compares to the jaw dropping impact the 4.3" screen has! (Ok HD7 maybe, but WinPho7 is not quite ready yet, but will be great!) If you want the latest hardware and spend most of your time browsing or viewing media, the Desire HD is for you!

Regards.

I tried an iPhone 4 for a week and sent it back I preferred my hd2 although the iPhone was very smooth

The dhd is as smooth as the iPhone and the screen makes media and browsing so good, texting is also very good and I personally find the sound awesome through headphones well happy with mine as you might be able to tell :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Currently stock 2.2 (3.29x), odexed ROM, rooted.

Questions:

1) Would this allow me to manually deodex my phone:

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-themes/4620-how-manually-deodex-your-phone.html

2) If I made full backups using Titanium from my odexed, stock ROM, can I restore those apps and data back onto a deodexed ROM?

3) When I flash a new ROM, I gather most of them will wipe all the apps and files from my phone. Is that correct? Under what condition will a new ROM flash NOT wipe the data? RUUs? I'm asking because I know 3.30x is coming.

4) When someone takes the release OTA 3.3x, root it, and deodex it, can I flash it over my stock odexed ROM and not lose any apps/data, as well as have everything work?

Thank you!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Bump--will someone please provide some guidance?

Another question: If I restore apps and data from one phone to another, with both phones operating (using the same gmail account), will it cause a problem?

I was wondering if Android apps install with unique IDs that would cause confusion/conflict between devices.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Trying again in hopes that I get some answers, in particular, #1. If I can manually deodex my phone with the stock ROM, I won't have to rebuild everything.

Later, I presume, I can just update using a deodexed/rooted RUU without losing anything?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
1.) No, that was made for a different phone and if you try you will get bootloops.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=795104

2.) Yes. I've done it going from Stock 3.29 to Myn's rom.

3.) You can flash any rom over any other rom and retain your data.

It does however cause major compatibly problems as most roms are designed differently.

You can just flash over an updated version of the same rom though.

i.e. Going from version 1 to version 2 of the same rom.

Ruu's will wipe everything back to stock. (and un-root I think.)

and 3.30 won't be an OTA it is only being shipped on new phones because they have a different hardware that requires the changes in 3.30.

If everything is stock you should be able to flash it over your 3.29 rom.

4.) I am not sure on this. Just make a Nandroid backup and try it.

If it bootloops or doesn't work, just boot to recovery and restore you Nand.

Nandroid Backup before you attempt ANYTHING.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Thanks so much for your reply. I read your thread on #1, subscribed, in hoping that there may be a solution. I'm confused by your response #3, and how it relates to post #3 on the thread you cited. I thought I read that you wanted to manually deodex because you don't want to re-set thing up? If a ROM flash (not RUU) will simply overlay, why would you need to re-set thing up?

A couple of follow ups--If I make a full backup using Ti-Backup from an odexed/OE ROM, doesn't the odex files get backed up with it? So when I restore onto a deodexed ROM, wouldn't that cause a problem?

I'm in the same boat as you. I want to flash to the new 3.30 dodexed ROM so I can remove some taskbar icons (and get the newer ROM), but I don't want to re-setup everything I have done with my OE Evo ROM.

But, if I understand you, I CAN flash the 3.30/deodexed/rooted ROM over my OE 3.29 odexed ROM and everything will remain?

Thanks again! (and for the Nandroid reminder too)

Edit:

I see why this won't work--it's an RUU, therefore it will wipe?
