Those are the only screens that I'm able to see, the first one appears when I power on my device (also holding the volume down button), the second one appears when I unplug the USB cable after flash. What can I do?

Yeah fortunately I've two monster device at home :D

EDIT: did you mean this?
[Desire HD General] nikoan89:
so nobody can help me? :(
[Desire HD General] xmoo:
Yes this is good.

Did you try flashing the 1.72 rom??

Mayb you have a bad block, so it only accept higher roms versions. Even tough your S-Off??
[Desire HD General] turbo_d:
1.72 Fixed it for me when i had the exact same error. Luckily it was posted the day i screwed my phone..... Hope it works for you.
[Desire HD General] nikoan89:
solved!!!

solved by myself yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesss!!! :D

as you can see in one of the previous images the problem was the touch panel partition flash so I've found a way to delete all of them (tp_ACE_SYN3KT0108.img tp_ACE_SYN3KW020B.img tp_atmel224_20aa.img tp_atmelc12_20aa.img) from the rom.zip and the flash worked without issues :)

To do this just use Android ROM Manager 2.0 it worked for me.

@xmoo yes I've tried to flash 1.72 previously, but it didn't work for me.
[Desire HD General] xmoo:
Alright, good to hear it worked out ok for you.

Which one is better? DHD or HD7
[Desire HD General] nikoan89:
Nice question :D

For me currently DHD is better, Android represent what WM has been for the last 2-3 years i.e. modding, flashing and so on with the nice improvement of open source.

WP7 has a good potential, the OS is very fast and has awesome animations, but we can't flash custom ROMs and that is a big limitation.

Ok we're a bit OT, but I've one more question: I'm serching for a way to have both Radio S-Off and Eng Hboot, any suggestion?

EDIT: ok I've installed the Eng Hboot, now I think I've both

Now that they both have perm root I was just wondering which phone everyone would go with? I have the MT4G right now but I cant stand the UI compared to stock.

Also does anyone have any benchmark results of the 2 after they have been OC'ed?

Just now i installed LCD density changer and i have set it to 190.

Is the 190 setting safe and the main thing , is this software safe and future proof that it wont effect my hardware in future.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greengoldmello:
I'm quite sure you have nothing to be worried about.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiedz:
you have to worry about your eyes though :D

190 is to much for me, but loving 220
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeviro:
LCD Density works on software level, not hardware level. The hardware display frame buffer is still 480x854, but when you change the lcd density, the software frame buffer is resized accordingly.

If you decrease the LCD density properties (dunno why increasing the value make things bigger), the SW frame buffer resolution will be increased in width and height, then after the OS finished with the rendering of SW frame buffer, this frame buffer will be resized to match the HW frame buffer, then the content will be copied.

So its safe, but increasing too much will make the phone slower because of bigger SW frame buffer, but of course you can see more text because the text is smaller.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Anyone care to post screenshots with 220 density?

Everything looks OK? :)
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Please suggest a few features to be included in its Pro Release...

Here's the list which has been made till now : -

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- All of the current features available in TotalCare

- Contacts, Call Logs, SMS Backup on server whose access would be given to

the clients.

- Location Fetching directly on server.

- Get Location Name directly on SMS and link of the Map to the Location.

- Get directory structure of the Memory Card.

- Upload specific file to the server (upto a certain size limitation).

- Take pictures from the camera remotely and upload it directly to the server.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apart from these, if anybody has any better idea, please share...

Thanks & Regards
[Android Apps and Games] gotwake424:
Looks pretty good so far.

You should add a "Find Me" command.

example: MCS 1234 Find Me

Turns phone volume on loud and plays a ringtone or some sound for 30 seconds.

Just something to help find your phone if for example its lost in your car or in your house.

Otherwise it looks great!
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Thanks for your suggestion.

Actually the more features we add, the more will be the app prone to destabilize. So we're trying to minimize that. You must have also noticed, it hardly consumes memory or battery.

For the thing you want, you can simply change the ringer mode to LOUD using the command and then give a Miss Call on your number. That would do it.

And still if people want such feature, we can think of implementing it as well. :) :) :)
[Android Apps and Games] Vostradamus:
Haven't tried it yet, but maybe I could suggest one or two improvements :p

- have it register 1 (or more) "accepted simcard numbers" and check the phone number of the simcard at boot, auto-sending an sms to both control phones if the detected simcard is "not allowed". I think this would be the main feature if you're to use it as an anti-theft app, otherwise the thief could just put his simcard in the device and you would have no way to use the software 'cause you don't know the thief's phone number

- investigate on how to turn gps on from your app... I know it can be done for there are apps around already doing it (must have root access though). This could be a nice plus for the gps tracking feature

In the meantime, grats for what seems to be a promising app ;)
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Looking great - Would be nice if the 'locate me' function just returns the best possible granularity, rather than you having to ask by type - Might also be nice to have the last known location returned there, just in case the gps signal was on but they entered a building.

Not working with antivirus installed

I am using Xperia X10 mini pro android 2.1 and using Dr web antivirus

When I installed the app and restarted the phone, it did not prompt me for the activation. To verify this I reinstalled totalcare again but still no success, but when I stopped the antivirus and reinstalled the app and restarted it prompted me for activation.

Maybe you should inform user that first you have to turn their antivirus off to get this app working.
[Android Apps and Games] gsources75:
Ok i don't understand...

1) install from Market (ok)

2) reboot device (ok)

and now? i dont't find app in drawer and after reboot i don't see any screen for activation...

Antivirus on Android is nonsense anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] swam1231:
Wow. Sounds good. Will give it a try. Sorry to sound stupid, but will this work if the person wih my phone removes/changes the sim.
[Android Apps and Games] willsurg:
I have an evo, android 2.2, kernal #17

I was able to set up and set control number etc no problem

however it does not seem to work. I send commands such as get gps, etc and nada after 10 minutes

oh i did recieve the sms confirming control phone and the phone does get the sms with the commands, just no reply ever comes
[Android Apps and Games] ErwinSprangers:
I dont mean to insult you but seriously?! If you would have read the instructions properly you would see a link to the site. On the site you go to features. Then read "easy to use" which you can find in the middle of the page. If you still dont understand then you should get an iPhone.
[Android Apps and Games] 95gs-t:
Any chance for an apk for those of us who flash often?
[Android Apps and Games] Ryan Cordero:
it would be nice to have a control app, instead of remembering all the commands you could send them from another phone
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Ok... I appreciate all your comments...

Thanks a lot for all the comments. Most of the features suggested are already inbuilt. Like SIM Change notification n all.

But the most appealing features i got from all these is Control App and last known location forwarding. I will implement that latter one.

But control App isn't possible because we need the flexibility to control the phone from any basic device. Not everybody has two android devices and that includes me. I'm just a high school student and this will be my semester project. I'll finish the Pro version by december.

If you want the APK, you can get it form SLIDEME.org, searching for TotalCare.

But i can't guarantee the updated version there. Market will always be updated.

Infact, I'm soon going to release the updated version with a few extra features and a few minor bugs resolved.

And I'm sorry but i was unaware of the anti viruses for android. Never thought it needs one. I'll surely check that too.

Please keep posting the reviews and please please add your device information, like model and android firmware since i need to check on which devices it work.

Thanks a lot... :):):)
[Android Apps and Games] camarriott:
In regards to a control app, what about a web app that hooks up with the Google Voice API?
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Thank you for agreeing on the last known location idea. You are missing out on the implementation of the control app, however. All the apps needs to do is send those same sms messages to the phone. That way you keep the ability to send from any phone but ALSO can have a gui system that hides the codes from the user, should they be able to access another 'droid phone.
[Android Apps and Games] tjhart85:
Tried it on an old G1 with CM6 running on it.

After I restarted, I entered my information and recieved an SMS notification on my control phone.

I then try to send MCS ##### SILENCE ON (where # obviously represents my key/code) and nothing happens.

The phone doesn't silence itself. Also, I don't know if the app is supposed to hide the SMS that was received or not, but it doesn't.

Also, when I opened the keyboard to type in my information after the first restart, the screen didn't rotate. Not a big deal, but it doesn't give the impression of a polished app if it won't do this.

SMS Commander works fine as does Wheres my Droid (which are relatively similar apps).

I'm going to go ahead & give it a try on my Vibrant and see how it does on that.

EDIT: I've also tried this on my Vibrant running Obsidian V3, Froyo 2.2 and that didn't work either.
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
Agree on the need for a control app....u don't even have to change functionality/workings of the core app, just make the control app send out pre-formatted smses.

of course, we could just pre-save those codes in our sms drafts, but a control app would be much more intuitive.
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Saving it in your drafts? That would require you having two phones, rather than just 'borrowing' one. That said, you would also need to remove the saved message in the sent folder of the phone if borrowing it, or change the code after using it...
[Android Apps and Games] misquia:
This seems like an great app in the making, I can see myself using this in the future when everything is more or less 'major issues-free', it would be nice to see this app remain free unlike those other monthly tracking services(which get costly).

Since I don't have unlimited texting or data on my Vibrant, does anyone know if this app will work with Google Voice? I would like to be able to use the free texting available on GV.
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
Obviously in another phone. Only a dumbo would try to save such drafts to send sms to a lost phone in the lost phone itself. Who says I have to have 2 phones? I could just as easily use my wife's phone, or to get her to do it for me.

Of course, I can't account for people without others to trust but I digress. It also shows that a control app would be very helpful indeed.
[Android Apps and Games] tjhart85:
I've also tried this on my Vibrant running Obsidian V3, Froyo 2.2 and that didn't work either.

Looking back through the comments, I don't see anyone who say's that they used it and gotten it to work.

Has anyone had luck so far?
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
TotalCare

Ok.

I've read all the reviews and now I'm inclined towards developing a Control App. It'll soon be on the Market. Will leave an update here as well.

Now for this, please try with Control Phones along with Country Code. Even if you dont use Country Code, still you will receive the confirming Control Phone SMS since its a local no. to you but the actual no. received by the phone would be in International Format. Please try and write back.

Actually the problem with Google Voice API is, its unavailable in most of the country (including mine). Once it gets globalized, I'll try that too.

Ok, on G1, it won't work. But I'm dont understand the problem with Vibrant. I received a similar mail on my support mail ID. I'll look into the matter but please try with a different Control Phone (along with Country Code). Make it a standard Mobile number if possible. Web SMS application won't work

And a request to all of you.

Downloads have crossed 1000 within 15 days but I need ratings too to get an A+.

Please help me get that... :D:D:D
[Android Apps and Games] timho:
Great idea, i can see all sorts of uses of this for companies whe they give phones to sales people but at the moment doesn't work on my HD2 which is running Darkstones Android build latest version

Control phone recieved a text but the commands do not work when sent to it

Contrl phone is a Desire running the latest android

How do I remove the app please
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Please try once more with Control phone along with Country Code... It should work...

Please try with adding the Country Code along with the phone number. If still doesn't work for you, its easy to uninstall like any other app.

Settings -> Application -> Manage Application

Select TotalCare -> Uninstall
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Just thinking, is there any reason you can't poll a website for commands? This would certainly make it an easier option for those without access to a second phone. If you need the web space, or even the development, I'll happily help out with both.
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Ok...

You can personally Contact me on my email : apurva.giri@advantal.net

and we can discuss over the issues due to which I'm unable implement it... :):):)
[Android Apps and Games] timho:
Do you mean when I set it up or when i send the sms from the control phone?
[Android Apps and Games] timho:
OK Have reinstalled with the country code and it now returns the message but the HD2 rings when the message is recieved and shows the message in the history, can this be stopped appearing?

In temrs of extra features

With GET CALL LIST would be good if could specify how many calls rather than the entire list (ie get last 3 calls or todays calls)

GET SMS would be good but again needs to specify how many or "todays"

TURN ON GPS - I tried to get the location of my phone but the GPS was turned off

Overalll a great app with many uses, thanks for sharing it
[Android Apps and Games] BackfireNL:
Doesn't work at all with me Nexus One (Cyanogenmod Nightly 250 / Android 2.2.1)

It does activate etc but after that no commands seem to work!
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
actually it works... I've received several mails quoting that its working successfully in Nexus One... please try with Country Code in Control Phone. Use the no. exactly as it appears on a Cell Phone Caller ID. :)
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Point noted... I'll add first two features.

Unluckily GPS can't be turned ON via any App. Only native android app can do that till date.

Thanks for such gr8 ideas... :-) :):):)
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
I think, reading the full line, that 'turn on gps' means activate it, hence the 'Was unable to' rather than turn the gps system on.
[Android Apps and Games] tjhart85:
On both the G1 and the Vibrant, I get a notification sent to the Control Phone that says:

This number has been selected as a Control Phone by the incoming SMS number.

so, the number entered shouldn't be a problem I wouldn't think.

The problem seems to be simply that the phone just isn't recognizing the text message. I've tried sending the control codes from a phone and from my GV account to my real phone number & it doesn't seem to make a difference.
[Android Apps and Games] liyanguo:
Not working on Vibrant

I also confirm that currently it does not work on vibrant. I get the message on two phone says the phone is the control phone. I send the control message in different format and it didn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Ok... Lemme clarify this thing again. You will receive the notification anyway. (even if you dont provide the country code). This is because, the no you set, the SMS is directly sent to that number. So, if the control phones are from same countries, they don't need country codes to send SMS'. Hence notification is sent. This doesn't mean that Control Phone is set correctly (but it doesn't either mean that you ppl are entering wrong way, may be its a software flaw. But actually thr shouldn't be any since basic API's are used which should work in all android. Crashing problems could be there bt non working is quite weird).

Anyway, I'll look into the matter. :)

Thanks for your feedbacks... :)
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
New Bug Report...

There's a huge bug i found recently. We're unable to change the Control Phones via SMS. Somehow the code must have altered while exporting the app to android executable. I read the code and its correctly written on my laptop.

Will put an update on Monday.

Lemme know if by chance its working for any of you.

[Android Apps and Games] Villis87:
Hello from Greece and thanks for this perfect app!

As a friend before stated, it would be really great for such an app to keep free, but of course the choise is yours ;)

Apart from this, the app is great! I test it on an HTC Wildfire and everything seems to work perfectly (thanks for supporting qvga devices ;) )

I've heard somewhere (i don't remember where exactly) that if a phone is rooted, someone can ask from the gps to turn on. It would be one of the most useful features to be able to turn on the gps remotely, because not all of us keep it turned on continuously!

I would also like to make some suggestions. I think it would be good if we (the users) were able to change the commands but of course this isn't so important. It would be also good to be able to set more control numbers if desired and one more good function should be a new command to turn off the mobile phone. I say this in case that someone forgot his/her phone back at home and doesnt want just to use the silent mode but completely turn it off!

That's all for now. I'll keep on testing as many commands as i can. Thanks once more for this app :)
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Not sure why you turn off GPS - If you don't want GPS on, just don't run an app that uses it (or set the options in the app to not use it) - As GPS is in standby until an application requests it, you don't use any battery.
[Android Apps and Games] Villis87:
Yes you are right. But i don't want an application that wants it turned on to use it when i'm not aware of it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] xManMythLegend:
You sure about this ?

Besides doesnt the browser constantly look for your location ?
[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Quite certain. It's why you don't always have the gps icon in your notification bar ;-)
[Android Apps and Games] apurva.giri:
Ok friends. Thanks a lot for your nice reviews and suggestions...

I'm trying to apply them one after another without affecting the stability

(which is the most important part of such app).

I just coded for around 5 hrs continuously to do the following changes in the app : - :eek: :eek: :eek:

- Handled most of the crashes.

(yeah i got a mail that said it crashed on his daughter's LG Branded Android)

- CHANGE CONTROL PHONES SOLVED

(Previously the Control Phone wasn't changing due to some problem, that has been resolved)

- DELETE CONTROL PHONES ADDED

(Now you can delete the control phones, but atleast one should be defined, otherwise won't get deleted)

- DELETE SMS OPTIMIZED

(Faster deletion of SMS')

- DELETE CALL LOGS OPTIMIZED

(Faster deletion of Call Logs)

- DELETE CONTACTS NEW API

(Newer API for Contacts Fetching & Deletion)

- GPS TIMEOUT SET

(If GPS Coordinate is not found till next 10 minutes, then a Time-Out message will come & GPS usage will be turned off, please suggest me the correct time period. I have set 10 minutes till now)

- First Name/Second Name/Full Name Contact Fetch

(Now fetch single contact by using either first name or last name or full name)

- Main Process More Persistent

(Process is nearly impossible to stop. Unless ofcourse Force stopped by Application Manager or simply Uninstalled) :D

Me looking for a solution to that too. Please help me find a solution for that too.

The Updated Version would be on Market by this Monday. Please rate the product while updating (if you haven't already). I need an A+. :D

Please leave more suggestions... :):):)

[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
I'm just thinking - Given that people clearly wish to test the application but are having issues, if the developer wanted to add some debugging output, would anyone be willing to run a debugging version, to help the developer find out these issues on different devices/roms/environments ??
