How easy or hard is it to do a housing swap?

I have a dream G1 I got it for $30 on ebay flashed unlocked it and software wise its great. The housing is alittle worse for ware.

I have seen the service manual but I want real world input on how easy it is.

and does the housing being fresh affect the resale value?

Heyho Folks

since around some weeks i've noticed that my hero is scrolling in the menu and the homescreen like an idiot as if a ghost would use my trackball...

Has any1 also this problem? Noticed it since Froyd 1.4 and it continues till froyd 1.5... just wanted to ask if this may a software problem before i have to send it to htc...

Almost everybody has experienced this. Mostly its dirt under the ball. If the problem is persistent I would definitely sent it back to HTC. They are not very difficult with warranty.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ante0:
For me it usually fixes itself if I go wild on the trackball (i.e. start scrolling alot).

Sometimes it does not work, but it does go away after a while.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ampicillin:
mine also got the same problem , but usually i clean it and it works for few weeks again when dirt comes i 've to reclean it
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seelbreaker:
how do you clean it? Do you have tools so that you can open the complete hero?

Well if it is really only dust then i would know a workaround when my warranty is off =)

Thx for the Answers!

Hello everyone

First of all thanks to mdeejay for the amazing work he has been doing. We all really appreciate that but i suggest instead of launchin new builds everyday he shud concentrate on improving one or two builds and make them more stable and final. Like we have sound issues need to turn speaker on off for louder volume. Gsensor is not calibrating ..the vertical position is messed up..screen on off takes time..needs to be more responsive..and many other issues which we all can point out.

Thanx

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] EFyodor:
Yes, for example PPP.

PPP disconnection is the most actual problem. It's very strange that this problem is not resolved still. I need to use Skype. But I can't use, because PPP disconnections happen very often when Skype is running. Still only rmnet based builds works properly with Skype. But rmnet is slow for Skype using.

Hi im running rooted (by unrevoked method) stock sense froyo version 2.09 on my telus desire and im trying to install 2.10 (software not eclair) but when i download the software from software update it will not install. ive tried changing signature verification in clockwork but that doesnt work. I found this work around, would this work and its fine if i lose my root:

On your Phone

open Astro and go to "download" folder

long-press and select "edit"

press "move"

press back button

press "edit" from the top menu bar

press "paste"

long press the file

press "edit", then press "rename"

rename to update.zip then press OK

Installation

power off phone

hold "volume down" and turn on phone

A screen should appear showing your phone's system searching for various files. Scroll down to “recovery” using the volume down button and press the “Power” button

When you see the triangle with an exclamation point symbol, press the “Power” and “Volume Up” buttons at the same time. This may take a few attempts

From the menu that appears, use the trackball to select "Apply sdcard:update.zip." Press down on the trackball to start.

When the screen displays "Install from sdcard complete" use trackball to select "reboot system now" and wait for the phone to power back up.

btw my baseband is 32.44.00.32U_509.05.30_2

and my kernel version is 2.6.32.15-gfc0527

Installation aborted.

any workaround for this?
[Desire General] adbirdie:
ugh i hope soo, theres got to be some way to install official software updates after root
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Yes, flashing the OTA updates WILL lose root. But you can just root again once done

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ni-cer:
It is a fact that charging the HD2 with a wall adapter goes a lot faster (1000 mA) than a USB port (500 mA). They make it possible for the device to detect if you are charging through a USB port or a wall adapter by shorting the two middle pins (D+ and D-) on a wall adapter. More information about charging differences between USB ports and wall adapters can be found here: http://www.attdroids.com/forum/motorola-backflip-development-hacking/683-motorola-fast-charge-usb-hack.html

Now under Windows Mobile, HTC built in the software that when you use the CU-S400, the HD2 WILL pull 1000 mA from the power source, not respecting the USB power standards. The issue is that Android DOES respect the USB power standards and detects the CU-S400 as an USB port and thus only pulls 500 mA through the car kit, because the D+ and D- wires are not shorted in the device. Even worse, they aren't even passed from the USB cable, so if you think using a hacked USB cable will solve this issue, you are wrong.

Because I didn't found a software solution for this issue and because charging at 500 mA is useless (with GPS on, the HD2 consumes more than 500 mA), I started hacking my CU-S400 :). Now for all of you CU-S400 owners that are running Android, I think you might find these guidelines to hack it very useful :D

1. Click open the micro USB connector on the CU-S400 on the side by using a small, flat and thin screwdriver. Click open on both sides. It gives some resistance but don't worry, it will click.

View attachment 431531

2. Lift out the connector through the clicked open box. Do this with the little mainboard first, trying to get the connector out first will not work. This step can require some tinkering, but don't worry, take your time and it will come out.

View attachment 431532

3. Now we have to short the D+ and D- wires of the USB port. As you can see on the main board, they are even not passed from the USB cable, which makes hacking the device a bit easier. Connect the two pins as shown on the picture with a cupper wire. I didn't soldered them on the mainboard with some tin on purpose, because I didn't wanted a permanent solution (very unlikely, but you never know I want to go back to Windows Mobile :D. If you want a permanent solution and aren't afraid of soldering and taking risks, I would advise to solder the cupper wire.

View attachment 431534 View attachment 431533

4. Test your hack! Before putting it all together again, connect your HD2 to the main board and put a USB cable in your wall adapter to make sure the bridge is made. From now on, don't ever connect your car kit to a PC USB port! It might work perfectly, but you risk to frie your PC or USB port if it isn't designed to provide the required 1000 mA!

5. Re-asseble your CU-S400 the reverse way you pulled it apart.

PS: just for the record, I can not be held responsible for any damage to your HD2 or car kit because of using these guidelines.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JenZen88:
Great!

I just did it myself today not knowing someone had made a guide in here :)..

But i strongly recommend to disassemble it the right way by pulling the transparent off by hitting it from the top and down, then it should pop right off, so you can unscrew the three small torx screws underneath it..

The CU S400 mod is a must for HD2 users, running Android and gps in the car :)

I wonder how I can upgrade my x10 mini pro to android 2.1 from my linux pc. I don't have any windows box at all. I'm looking for somthing like htc-flasher, but for x10.

Anyone?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
Well, I dont know if that would help, but i just updated in Linux through Virtualbox
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ben.Hahlen:
Can you elaborate on how you did this? Because it wasn't possbile for me in VirtualBox, due to the fact that it didn't keep the USB connection.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mr_cos:
I’m guessing he is using the non-free version of virualbox with usb support. I don't have a windows cd, so that’s no option.

Maybe the java tool posted in this thread xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=826455 can be used on linux after some modifications?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
Yes, that was a must.

To keep the USB connection you have to add it as a filter in the settings tab:

Without starting the virtual machine, connect the phone and go to settings > usb, select to add a filter and select the phone. I think that should work for PC Companion. If you plan to update with seus the usb device is a different one, so you should put the phone in flash mode and add the filter for the corresponding device. After the update, the name of the devices will change again, so you need to add new filters again.

Btw, I wasn't able to root through Virtualbox using Superoneclickroot but I think it was because I didn't stop PC Companion properly...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
Yes, you also need usb support.

If you don't have any windows at all maybe you could try flashtools in wine...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mr_cos:
Thanks, but I don't think wine have usb support.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ben.Hahlen:
How did you root the phone then?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
I think it has some very primitive support, but certainly I wouldn't go that way...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
This morning I had acces to a computer with windows, and I tried to root using Superoneclickroot and I ended up having the same problem as with Virtualbox (the program was running but it was stuck at a loop), but this time I tried Ctrl+Alt+Del > Manage tasks > Finish PcComapnion, and it automatically rooted. I think If I had done the same before It would have worked...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] munzli:
rooting the phone with linux works like a charm... you need the sdk from h t t p : / / developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (sorry i can't post correct links)... i haven't tried flashing it yet because i'm waiting for the official update in switzerland
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mr_cos:
I guess you are talking android 1.6 for the rooting from linux with android sdk tools (adb?)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] munzli:
exactly... as soon as i have 2.1 i'll post what method i used
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rmcooke:
This is driving me crazy. I am also trying to install the 2.1 update with virtual box (non-free 3.2.10) on Mini Pro.

I am unable to get a proper USB connection to the device although it shows in the filters settings when I boot the VM it remains greyed out.

Can anybody else report success?

Sony Ericsson deserve a big slap for this.

Update: Sorry to solve my own problem, but isn't this so often the way after you ask for help:

I had to add my user to the vboxusers group, after which the usb connection worked fine.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
adb works great in Linux, both for 1.6 and 2.1, but the problem is there are no flashing tools available to update.

As for rooting the phone, the program I used in 2.1 (superoneclick) seems to be a gui for some batch process in adb, hence maybe reproducing all this steps in adbshell (pushing the necesasary files, running rageagaintshecage, getting the mountpath...) one could root the phone the same way...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mr_cos:
It looks like the superoneclick author will add linux support in the next release. :-)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
Good, I hadn't seen that before. And well, looks like it's already supported. I just installed it,

you have to run the .exe file through mono. I tried and looks like working correctly, it detects the phone... but mine is already rooted so I'm not sure...

[Galaxy S I9000 General] XQC:
Because everybody wants to make sure that they bought the best smartphone of the universe, therefore they need constant reassurances like this, so that there is no need for any fear or envy.

BTT:

Well, Android vs. iPhone marketshare doesn't say anything really. I mean, Apple is competing with four iOS devices against (insert number here) Android devices. And now there are only 3GS and 4 available at high prices, whereas Android devices are much more affordable.

So this news makes the same sense as saying that BMW has a much higher market share than Porsche.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lemmy_0:
but did you know that apple had their highest revenue last quarter?

but it includes all their products, with the highest percentage from IPAD.

their iphone sales also is of high numbers.

they just have really good marketing that people(with no technical experience mostly) tend to buy them forgetting their flaws.

not that our phones don't...

as was stated by XQC, selling more android phones than iphones is surely because there are a lot more manufacturers that offer it to the public.

of course, I really would want to see apple's sales decline in the near future...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
That doesn't mean much.. It actually turns out that RIM had it's biggest earnings too, as well as many other companies. In fact, RIM reckons Apple used earlier figures from other companies during their bragging, which is why they appeared so awesome. in comparison to other companies.

It's more likely iPhone sales are slowing down at the moment, and Apple simply gained bigger profits per device during that period.

The reality is,
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Will.1:
Well to be fair apple only has 1/2 iphones out vs 10bilion android phones, and they're just so much more profitable because their current customers would probably still buy the new iphone even if it was $1000. They just have such a high retention rate, and keep getting new customers who want apple because their products look nice, and they have been told it's easier to use.

They get incredible word of mouth advertising from their customers.

And i mean, every company use weird numbers for their competition, but it seems very clear to me that apple is very dirty with this (i.e: device activation vs android...)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ca7846:
I an happy because apple slowing down and android rise means I can choose from many manufacturers.

Also apple is distorting consumer which has to be stopped. Their success is due to extensive advertisement which portrayed apple product users as trendy and cool. That's cheap way to sell product. Also they focus more on looks than quality which will degrade quality of the product and consumer's expectation overall. For example nano has one of the worst sound quality yet it is dominating mp3. As more nano is being sold, consumers care less about sound quality which in fact is the most important for mp3... And quality of mp3 in general has gone down for all mp3. Same applies to phone. People are happily buying phone that drops call.... People are starting not to care what's important and are just trying to be cool....

These were what apple was doing over past few years. I an very happy to see that it is finally ending..

I am sensing apple's draconian era coming down and era where users can voice and innovate is coming. These all makes me happy :)
