[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sharkie405:
the only instant messaging service I use these days is google talk. I'm sharkie405 on there as well, so feel free to hit me there if you want.

To install the rom, put your phone in bootloader mode, plug it up to the comp. and run the RUU application included in the ROM download. Just follow the prompts and you should be good to go. You don't need to mess with the page pool. By default the ROMs page pool is set to 12 which I believe is the best setting for it.

If you ever want to flash from storage card, just rename the RUU_signed.nbh to RHODIMG.nbh and put it on the root of your storage card and the put the phone in bootloader mode. Once it bootloader mode it will automatically pick up the RHODIMG.nbh file and begin the flashing process. Just remember to remove the ROM file afterwards or every time you put it in bootloader mode it will begin to flash that ROM.

You may have already seen this post, but here's a post in my PPCGeeks thread about Task29'ing:

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/2114685-post3542.html

My ROM does not include a radio, just a ROM. It won't erase the radio you already have, it just won't change it. You can flash radios separately if you want. I believe that just cuz one wants a new ROM, that doesn't mean that one wants to change radios. That's why I don't include a radio in my ROMs.

Yes, hard resetting will erase all data and return your phone to the default settings of whatever the last ROM you flashed was.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gera229:
You know the little task manager on the top right corner. I messed with the settings a bit and now it's gone. How do I retrieve it?

Yeah, I didn't want to get a new radio because mine was up to date so i asked. Also Task 29 didn't remove radio either but the splash screen was flashed although the same one I believe.

Also what is XDA UC? Because I soft reset my device without even clicking it. Maybe I should have pressed it before soft resetting but I forgot lol.

In addition, I find the stock text messaging application buggy when a lot of text messages are there. Do you have any recommendations to fix this? The app is called sms and mms.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] EdsterG:
Theme break startmenu

Sharkie I love you're ROM.

I would like to tell you that installing the Default WM6.5.x THEME from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6367316&postcount=350

breaks the start menu.

Also with that theme your rom doesnt allow the start menu icon to change.

I've tried that theme on Energy rom and the stock rom with no problems.

Do you have any idea why this might be? Maybe a quick fix?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sharkie405:
I'm looking into it now. Hopefully I'll something for you tonight. If not, I'm off all day tomorrow so I should be able to figure it out. Thanks for letting me know you tried my ROM. I glad you're liking it, besides this issue, that is. :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] EdsterG:
Sweet! Were you able to find anything? =)

[Droid 2 General] goBenLandau:
Daily, my phone downloads an update and attemps to install it. Everytime it say the update has failed after a restart. I am rooted and running bootstrap. Do I need to update some non normal way
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
What is your system version?

Sent from my Motorola Droid 2 with Fission 2.1
[Droid 2 General] goBenLandau:
Currently says 2.2.20.a955

It downloads and starts the install of 2.3.20 but it never finishes successfully
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
If the OTA update fails I would flash the 2.3.2 sbf that will update it. There are tutorials in the droid 2 android development section.
[Droid 2 General] pool_shark:
Did you remove any of the apps after rooting? The update fails if the preinstalled apps are not present. I put mine back and the update worked fine, then I re-rooted.
[Droid 2 General] Phoible:
I've found that having the Bootstrap installed causes the update to fail (probably messes with the update process). I was running Fission, and restored a backup I had made when my system was stock. Upgrade failed, so I tried unrooting. Still failed, so I restored from the 2.3.20 SBF, which brought me up to date.
[Droid 2 General] SevereDeceit:
I was just going to ask that. You are correct...:cool:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd254:
What does clockwork do exactly when it comes to backing up your data? Does it just do the important files or the entire phone?

REAL QUESTION:

I have viper rom installed. When the real froyo gets released or an updated Viper rom is release, what do I do?

1. Do I use clockwork to do ALL my backup and restoring? If not, what programs do I use?

2. I have some apps installed on the microsd card too, what app will restore those files once I flash my phone with a new rom?

3. everytime I do a backup with clockwork, do the older backups get erased?

4. What are your suggestions on how I should do my backup?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomasskull666:
CWM (Clockwork Mod) performs a full backup of all system data, which includes the ROM and Kernel, any theme you have installed, all apps and their respective data, as well as any other settings. I would not suggest using only clockwork for your backups, a program such as Titanium Backup would be a better bet in case your NAND gets corrupted, which would disable your ability to restore from backup. Clockworkmod and Titanium Backup can both backup and restore apps on the sdcard, so I wouldn't worry about that. The backups in clockwork are concurrent, meaning that each time you do a new one it saves it as a completely separate backup containing only the files that you backed up on that occasion. I personally use clockwork for large backups such as individual ROMs, and then titanium for my apps and data. I hope this helps, feel free to pm me if you have any more questions/need more explanations!

Hey :D Just got my Z today and it great so far :D

Only thing i can't get my head around is how to type < and > on the keyboard ? :confused:

(Have the Scandinavian model)
[G2 and Desire Z General] larsdahlin:
I've only found it on the soft keyboard.

Numbers, page two.

[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
You'd need to use some keyboard mapping to achieve this on the hardware keyboard, I think. Or perhaps get one of the programmable hardware keys to do these characters ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] jvvpc:
There is 5 local characters on the Scandinavian Z and in Danish we only use the 3 of them, so can I somehow remap the two keys I'm not using ? :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Didn't know about the lack of programmable keys. But yes, you should be able to re-map some of the others. There's a thread over in the dev forum about some keyboard remapping stuff for Scandinavian characters.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Android1126:
If you have the ALT button, hold that down, while "HOLDING DOWN" another key. Letters typically make symbols. J and K are < and >.

Works for me 100%.

Otherwise try FN while holding down J or K or any other key. Try it with shift as well, while holding down 3 buttons, the letter key last.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bsktballstar3131:
this worked for my on US G2 pressing and holding ALT and pressing and holding J which brought up 3 extra symbols on touchscreen to choose from, with "<" being one of them. thanks for the info, i originally tried just holding ALT only while just tapping J and it didnt do anything, need to hold both down.

Calm down man. Not everyone has the time to read each and every forum thread or topic. You know, job, family, responsibilities and other things sometimes get in the way of our beloved XDA time. It happens. Take it easybrother, XDA is not life.
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
Lol, I realize that, but it's not like he had to search or anything. Simply opening the G2 and Desire Z General subforum (where this thread is posted) and scanning the top 10 threads listed would have shown the original thread (even has the same symbols mentioned in the title). It probably took more effort to find the 'New Thread' button than it would have to find the existing thread. It's like walking down the street and throwing your trash on the ground *right next to* a trash can.

I have the Nordic model too.. It seems to me, that when I got the new OTA update, the < > ^ etc are finally available through FN + SYM on the hardware keyboard.. It wasn't available before this update :o

I know this probably should have been posted over in the General section but it seems to be pretty inactive over there and I wanted to make sure as many of the people who might benefit from this would see it as possible.

I'm in Miami (more specifically the Hialeah and Miami Lakes area), where 4G isn't technically switched on yet but just for ha-has I turned on my 4G radio a couple of nights ago and lo and behold... 4G!

Go ahead and give it a try, but before you do, remember to go into Settings > About Phone > System Updates and update your PRL and profile so that your phone will know to pick up on the new towers.

Gotta love the new speeds!

Lucky! I'm still waiting for Detroit and surrounding areas to get it. I'm not a big fan of paying for something I don't get. But, this phone is worth it especially considering my last phone was a 528mhz TP2

Mods, if the thread needs to be moved or deleted, I apologize.

I'm eternally grateful for the help my fellow XDAers have provided me with over the past year and I'm happy that I've been able to help a few of them back. After all, that's what we're all here for, right?

I love XDA. I truly do. It has changed the way I view my mobile phone and that's major. What I don't love is all the unnecessary snark that I've come to expect from this place. It's not helpful, it's uncalled for, and quite frankly, it's so juvenile I could vomit.

I know such is the nature of the beast (the beast being the internet), that with the anonymity we're provided behind screen names and avatars we feel it's okay to be disrespectful to each other and bully other people but that's just not the way I treat people. Online or offline.
[Epic 4G General] kindaskimpy:
Oooh awesome! I'm find myself in the FIU area a lot so now I know to keep it on when I'm down there. Thanks!

For those interested in really helping, download the 4g mapping application from the market. It is made by sensorly... It displays current maps provided by their users and your can choose to submit anonymous days to them to help make the maps better.

The data has different settings so out can always collect our just when the app is working or not at all :)

Ps.

I have been in miami gardens drive area all week and I also had service. According to hoax map they have almost completely coveted the 95 and surrounding areas

Not just you. I don't know where you are but for me, I've been getting 4G for a few days now at home (Miami Lakes) and about half an hour ago, it disconnected from 4G and hasn't picked it back up again
[Epic 4G General] :
Ditto, I'm in the Hialeah Gardens area (other side of the bridge) near Hialeah Gardens Blvd. tested a few days ago... got excited and now it's gone :(

How was your signal indoors btw?
[Epic 4G General] kindaskimpy:
Inside my apartment I was getting 1 or 2 bars out of the possible 3. Mostly it stuck to 2 bars, it didn't go down to 1 bar often.

On a semi-related note, they should add a couple of bars to the icon to represent signal reception a little more accurately.
[Epic 4G General] bitbang3r:
Check the Evo General forum... there's a very long & active thread for "Miami 4G" (mods... can this thread be merged in & the "Evo" Miami 4G thread cross-linked so it'll appear in both forums simultaneously?)
[Epic 4G General] kindaskimpy:
Great tip. Thanks, bitbang3r. Also check out the Map Viewer app from the market, search "4G" or "Map Viewer" and you should find it. It's developed by Sensorly.com and it's immensely useful and accurate.
[Epic 4G General] kindaskimpy:
As of today, 4G is officially turned on in Miami. Yay.

Problem with that is that if you check the coverage map, you'll see 4G coverage is pretty spotty. My area isn't "officially" covered yet but a few days ago, a lot of us, were picking up 4G signal in these "not covered" areas of Miami and then just before they flipped the official switch, our coverage disappeared. WTF Sprint?!
[Epic 4G General] :
Lol, I read that announcement last night, got excited, then disappointed. They should have said "Downtown Miami" then listed the other places surrounding it. Here I've been all along convinced I'd see 4g before December...
[Epic 4G General] kindaskimpy:

Hello there, for the last few days, I was trying to flash my phone with an official unbranded English ROM, but unfortunately none of them worked for me.

I got a same result for these 4 roms, the process hangs at **% and the ROMUpdateUtility tells an error.

Failed ROMs:

- RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.37.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship

- RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship

- RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship

- RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_2.03.479.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship

Successful ROMs:

- 2 custom ROMs I found here at xda-developers

- HTC Touch Diamond MR 2.00.651.7 (for Sprint)

So does anyone know what's causing the problem? Do I need to have corresponding SPL or radio for a certain ROM?

Thanks for any info

Also, what is the purpose fission rom manager? I have installed, but not sure what use it has yet? Thank you for the nice work.

As a side note I had to use the D2 and swype keyboard install from 2.1 to properly get haptic feedback when typing working.

Out of curiosity, how long do you think it will probably take for 2.2.2 to be up for D2 after you get it up for DX? I want to upgrade from 2.1, but since 2.2.2 is right around the corner, I figure I out to wait...

Unless its preferred to installed 2.2.2 over 2.2.1 via the ROM manager (in which case, I'll upgrade today) :-)
