You can't compare the MyTouch 3G (MT3G)and the Hero. Have you thought of the fact that the MT3G is based off the simple AOSP? It's as basic as it gets for the Android update process. Google effectively did most of the work, and HTC/T-Mobile just takes it and makes it compatible with the MT3G.

The Hero is built on the Sense framework. So that whole thing needs to be redone for 2.2... so HTC/Sprint has to do a lot more work than it did for the MT3G. As a company with something like a dozen newer Android devices, it's just not economical to spend resources on maintaining it. It sucks, but that's how the tech industry works (and that's also why we have awesome developers working on CM6 for us).
[Hero CDMA General] greengiant1969:
It seems to me with another update they could've given us froyo. I bet that this new update will mess up root again so I'm not going to update it til it can be used with root.
[Hero CDMA General] Asadullah:
Every update does and it probably messes up the ability to flash the phones to other carriers even more. get your s-off while it's hot!!!
[Hero CDMA General] stayclean:
All updates break root.
[Hero CDMA General] Zardos66:
Sense is the reason we don't have a real froyo update, and never will.

Manufacturers interfaces need to die a terrible death.

Well if that is the case then why doesnt my wife have 2.2 on her Samsung Moment?
[Hero CDMA General] iceflow420:
I've been asking this same question. It seems like the dev's over at SDX aren't as ambitious as the ones here.
[Hero CDMA General] c00ller:
One reason is Samsung is lazy. They have been known to leave their customers hanging, like that awful Behold II incident where customers were promised 2.1 and instead Samsung abandoned everyone with 1.6. Even their high end Galaxy S is taking them until Jan or Feb next year to come out. Even if the Moment is built on AOSP it doesn't mean Samsung can just cut and paste the Google code and be done with it. They have to actually do some work to get it fully compatible, but I suspect Samsung does not want to invest in the amount of effort required to do so. I expect Samsung would have many different components and required drivers from HTC devices, so getting them compatible with 2.2 might be giving the sdx devs some trouble.

Hi all,

I was wondering if there was a way to force the keyboard keys to stay lit up until you close it. It seems to be cutting out mid type.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ibemad1:
It turns off when you it's bright enough in the surrounding area. You can flash cyanogenmod and set all the brightness settings.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gjm777:
Thanks,

I guess I was hoping to be able to control this manually without having to flash a different rom.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ibemad1:
At this time its not possible to control it manually from stock froyo. Maybe in gingerbread?

[G2 and Desire Z General] dietotherhythm:
do you have it set to automatic brightness? I noticed my keyboard turning on and off while typing and the screen dimmed and brightened with it. Turned off the auto brightness and hasn't done it since.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Turning off the auto brightness hasn't made any difference to me on my DZ. The backlight for the keyboard and capacative buttons seems to turn off and on quite often for no apparent reason (badly calibrated light sensor ?).
[G2 and Desire Z General] daaango:
has anyone tried covering up the light sensor with a sticker or something? lol idk
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
That would certainly work, you can put your finger over it and show how it's the light sensor doing it. Probably not the best long term solution though :D

I'm looking for clean (minimal) ROM to use as base for Android ROM. It has to be for T-Mobile HD2 (based on official 3.14 ROM). Most of "clean" ROMs here are for International HD2 :(

Any recommendations ?

Also appreciate advise on dual boot application. Thanks

the perfect rom for you is VBN ROM or VNB ROM im not sure just search it im sure ull find it ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bogdatov:
I know that 3.14 works fine as is. But I think that there could be SMALLER roms based on 3.14 with everything turned off, removed, etc ... so it would load faster
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bogdatov:
It seems that vbn rom is discontinued. Not sure if it matters for base ROM, but it seems it is not based on latest 3.14 ROM
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] raysacr:
Not sure what you're talking about but VBN core is 3.14. You can also try OzDroid, both are barebones winmo roms for booting android. I've used both, and they both working flawlessly, very fast and no robo voice in android. I've only recently decided to go to OzDroid because the buttons in WinMo are bigger so it's more touch friendly.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stihl:
Hi guys,

I've googled with no results and I've tried contacting the devs with no results.

I bought Tasker from the android market with one very important reason;

I want Tasker to turn off my 3G/HSDPA connection and have it switch to GPRS only when I turn the display OFF. And let it switch back to 3G/HSPDA when I turn the display back ON.

Is this even possible, if not what else are my possibilties?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cholawo:
I'm also after this, I currently have it switch off mobile data when screen off, but that's not exactly what I'd like as things like google talk get disabled altogether....just switching down to 3g or less would be great. So "bump" I guess!
[Fascinate General] yoitsbry:
Is this possible to have on the samsung fascinate, I see that froyo is required for it stock from google. However, I was wondering if it is something that could be ported to 2.1 for now since we dont have froyo. Any insight?

[Captivate General] Verrigan:
I just wanted to say that.

Why?

Yesterday, I tried to switch ROMs from the Darkyy's Raw Steel to the latest Cognition.. I disabled the lag fix, hoping there wouldn't be any problems, and tried to flash with clockworkmod..

Lo and behold, the damn thing wouldn't get past the AT&T screen. :(

So I reverted to the cable and odin.. Tried to install an older Cognition ROM with odin.. fail.. fail.. fail.. about 100 times on my Windows 7 64-bit machine..

I spent a lot of time searching these forums, and found many posts that said many things.. Including:

Keep trying.. It will work eventually.

Reinstall the drivers..

Try different USB ports..

Try Windows XP

Keep trying.. It will work eventually.

Try a rear USB port.

Keep trying.. It will work eventually.

Use the plugin cable, insert battery while pressing all 3 buttons, and release power.. ('instant' download mode.. And it really does get into download mode faster if you do it right..)

Keep trying.. It will work eventually.

Between my Windows 7 machine and my Windows XP machine, I tried to odin one-click to JI6/JF6 between 200 and 300 times yesterday..

Finally, I was able to get it to install.. So then I installed the 2.3b3 Cog ROM, and that worked, and I was finally able to upgrade to 2.3b6. :)

So... I'd like to thank you all for having so many different threads in these forums that have so much searchable information. I didn't have to make a 'How do I unbrick my phone' thread, and add to the confusion of everyone else who may be trying to search for ways to fix their phone.

I would, however, like to thank G1rome for the encouragement you gave in private messages. Yeah.. I messaged him out of the blue because he offered to help someone else via PMs in a thread that came up when I was searching for unbrick info.

So..

Thanks folks! I would not have had the patience to keep trying if it weren't for this community.
[HD7 General] irshanuddin:
I got an HD7 off Craig's the other day and have been having rouble syncing my google contacts properly.

coming from a Nexus One, all my contacts are saved on Google. So I created a gmail account and synced my contacts, email and calendar. All the contacts do show on my People Hub, but the problem is, it's only names, no phone numbers!

Am I doing something wrong? I've tried syncing manually too with no success.

Please help!
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
Are your Google Contact's phone numbers labeled properly? Windows Phone 7 will only recognize specific labels. So for example, if you were to label a phone number in your contact's entry as "Blahblah", Windows Phone will not recognize that as an entry and it will not appear in your contact on your phone. It has be labeled as Home, Work, or Mobile in order for Windows Phone to recognize it.
[HD7 General] irshanuddin:
Thanks for the reply.

I made sure all my contacts were labeled as "Mobile" because the Nexus wont show them up for messaging if they arent. So no, that isnt a problem.

Any other suggestions?

Btw, the HD7 works flawlessly with my $5.99 t-zones plan, which is the only reason I bought it off of Craigslist even though I was eligible for an upgrade..

;)
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
Is it just the phone numbers that do not show up? What about other details like birthday, address and what not, do those show up properly?

Also, try creating a new contact and just throw some bogus random information in there and see if the new contact syncs properly.

[Vibrant General] Col.Kernel:
That WAS constructive, if less than polite. So I apologize for my rudeness.

I'm really unhappy about all the carriers touting their 4G networks when (at the time) there wasn't even a 4G standard.

Now there is a 4G standard but it hasn't been deployed anywhere.

If you want your phone lying to you, that's your business. I just happen to have a loathing for marketing jerks who thrive off of confusing issues rather than clarifying them. I also feel that it is our responsibility as members of our respective communities to clear up deliberate foisted misconceptions among those less technically literate when possible.

are there any apps or services that are known to hog the cpu??

are their any kernels that can give better performance then the stock kernel? i'm up for the idea of swapping and even getting setcpu *not looking to overclock* installed to save on some battery life *if possible*

much thanks for any info..

If you're not going to overclock I'd recommend sticking with the stock kernel, if you do want to overclock the latest kernel from Ziggy smokes.

[Focus General] rayb2001:
Does anyone actually use the phone as a phone? I'm finding that the echo cancel really limits the quality of the phone. I can hardly carry on a decent conversation in the car using the supplied headset.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Try this: connect the headset. Call your phone from another phone. Listen to both at the same time. You can clearly hear when you talk that the phone is suppressing noise.

What I find is that when I'm in the car, it actually seems to suppress the volume of the person on the other end! So, it can be very frustrating as I miss words that they say.

Combine this with AT&T's marvelous AGC (where if you don't talk, it cranks the volume so that when you do talk, it blows the person on the other end away!), and the total quality of the call is horrible.

I've been using cell phones for almost 20 years. This is the worst phone quality I've ever experience.
[Focus General] mcraine:
When I use the phone directly for calls, everything sounds clear and at a consistent volume with one exception, while waiting for the other party to answer, the call ringing tone goes up and down in volume.

I've paired 3 different bluetooth headsets to the phone and found that the volume in my headset goes up and down quite a bit. Usually it's the worst at the beginning of the call. Sometimes I can't hear the other person answer but then it levels out a bit and the volume fluctuations are less extreme. I've tried an old Sony Ericsson, a Jabra Extreme, and have settled on a Plantronics Voyager Pro+. The Voyager is about the best I've tried but still exhibits the volume fluctuations but not as bad. It also supports A2DP so I can listen to podcasts through the headset.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
I use it with the Sync system in my ford f150 and have no problems at all. It works great. I dont use headsets so..........only my sync system
[Focus General] Tempest790:
I thought it was just me. My Plantronics 925 does this as well. Calls from the phone are fine, but the headset volume cuts in and out. Is this a bad Bluetooth stack or other problem? I think I remember another phone (WM 6.5) that had to get hacked to fix this. I'm a little miffed on this. Did anyone at Samsung or ATT test the bluetooth on this phone before selling it?
[Focus General] siralex241:
I have had very good call quality whether using the "phone as a phone", the phones speaker phone, or a blue ant bluetooth headset. I have had poor call quality only when trying to call someone in very low signal area. That has only been once. Otherwise overall clarity and volume have not been an issue, actually phone volume on high is too loud for my ears!
[Focus General] mcraine:
adding to my earlier post. I exchanged my Focus due to an unrelated issue. Both handsets had the same fade out issue with the bluetooth headsets. I've experienced it on every call so I don't think it's signal related. I don't see any volume fluctuation at all when using the handset without the bluetooth headset. I've tried the same three bluetooth headsets on my wife's iPhone 3GS and all work fine. I've also streamed at least a couple of hours of podcasts from the Focus to my headset and the volume is perfectly level. Whatever the issue, it's only related to phone calls. Very frustrating.
[Focus General] mcpell:
I've experienced the same issues. I have an Aliph Jawbone Icon. Before I updated the firmware on it I could barely hear someone on the other end. With the new jawbone firmware I have the ability to control the volume in the headset and only when I have it turned all the way up does it work ok. I do, however, still have trouble when people are talking that when the first start and or finish talking what they say seems to get clipped. Further, the volume seems to fade in and out. Also, if I'm using the AT&T navigator software and have my headset attached it will give me directions through the headset, but the end of every direction gets chopped off. So, the avene or street part of a direction doesn't come through.
[Focus General] mcraine:
I've been following this issue in a few different forums. Today a moderator in the Microsoft Answers forum jumped in and said they were experiencing the same problem and they would escalate the issue.
