[Desire HD General] zelkinp:
Hi guys, I've recently just rooted my Desire HD and I'm having a bit of trouble setting the permission for the /system folder so I can remove some of the bloatware.

I'm using Root Explorer, and r/w is set in all other folders except when I move into the /system directories. It will automatically switch to r/o and the 'Mount R/W' tab doesn't seem swap it to r/w.

I've tried using Terminal Emulator to set the permission via this command;

su

# mount -o remount,rw /system

Which gives me the following;

"Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory"

I'm still coming to grips with using Terminal Emulator so I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.

The handset was rooted using Visonary+tools and Clockworkmod v2.5.1.2. HBOOT is set to S=OFF.

I've tried a few other applications like Androind Mate and ES Explorer. Any help would be great.

Thanks.

For whatever reason, my T2 will not connect to my Win 7 machine running mobile device center. Have gone to the extent of wiping both and starting from scratch, is there a way to flash a ROM without connecting it to a pc or another alternative?

THANKS!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Yes, you can flash from the SD card. There are instruction on how in the n00b guide.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=550540

But basically just use a USB card reader to put the .nbh on the SD card. Put the Sd back in the phone and go into bootloader.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] irishmdc:
Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] irishmdc:
Didn't work, error and failure of transfer of files to SD card connected as external storage. :( I just wish I knew why I can't connect to WMDC....it doesn't make sense....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Try re-formatting the card, FAT32 as indicated in the n00b instructions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] irishmdc:
It's already in FAT 32. I've been flashing roms since my first htc 3 years ago. I've never had a problem until this rom/issue with my computer. I've always synced through the PC and I can't get the damned thing to connect. It's frustrating the hell out of me because this rom keeps hanging and freezing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Are you using the phone or a card reader to put the .nbh file on theSD card?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] irishmdc:
I've tried both. I think it's getting to the point where it's the PC i'm using. Which is a problem as all my other computers are Mac or Linux. If WMDC would work I wouldn't be having this problem which is an issue with this PC, I can't get the file over which at this point has to be a problem with this PC. Guess I'm screwed until I can get my hands on someone else's PC... aren't I? I do really appreciate the help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
If you're getting an error using a card reader, the SD card might need to be reformatted. Yes, it might be the PC. But if you don't have any valuable data on the card, I'd try to format it and see if that helps. Also try different USB ports, they can be finnicky sometimes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] irishmdc:
There's too much on it to wipe the card until I can get back to one of my Macs over the weekend. This is the first real issue i've had and none of it makes any sense as to why the pc/wmdc won't see or set up a partnership with the phone. I'll try wiping the card when I can, was hoping there was a way to get rid of this rom as it really sucks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Do you have "Enable faster data synchronization" unchecked under Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC? Some people have had success getting ActiveSync to connect after disabling this, especially with Vista and Windows 7.

[Vibrant General] DirtySant0:
Hello Everyone.

Ive been updating and rooting my Vibrant since before its release. Im not sure what happened to my device but I updated to one of Bionixs 2.2 Roms and it ruined my GPS. I have tried all things. Master resets, Odin, older Nan Backups. Im not sure if I fried my GPS radio or what the deal is but I cant seem to flash the JI2 GPS settings. So I want to start fresh. Can some one explain to me the best way to odin back. When Im in odin, should I check the Re-Partition Box? What is the best stock non rooted odin file to get back to?

Thanks!

GPS FIX THAT WORKED WONDERS FOR ME!

I have never had an issue with GPS until I flashed ODIN JI6. I could be outside 45 minutes and never get a lock... stock JI6, Eugene's or sombionix's ROMs.. nada. I was PM'd by kdf2833 about a GPS fix for the JI6 (no clue if it works for JFD, I would assume so). He told me to go read THIS POST from digatltoddy. Below is the post if you do not want to leave the thread:

You'll need to get into LBSTestMode by entering *#3214789650# from the dialer. Press Delete GPS Data, this will get rid of the bad GPS information that is probably still stored in your phone. Go to Application Settings and set the Start Mode to 'Cold Start'. Reboot your phone and go outside, run an app like GPS Test and let it lock onto as many birds as it can, once you get a good number (at least 5), go back into your LBSTestMode --> Application Settings and set the Start Mode back to 'Hot Start', reboot and all should be merry.

I had major issues w/ my GPS and was able to put this together with the help of various posts and a deeper understanding of how GPS on these phones actually works. Hope this helps!

Also, it's probably best to run the GPS Test application while you are driving around, let it lock onto as many birds as it can (I'd say let it run for a few minutes, I was able to get 9 the first time) before setting it back to 'Hot Start'. This way it will keep these birds in the list and allow you for a faster lock afterwards.

** If this works for you too, and boy did it for me, please thank digitaltoddy and let me know in this thread - good or bad so I know **

Hi Guys

You've probably heard this a million times...

I've rooted my Phone with Unrevoked 3 and thats about it, since rooting I have installed a few root apps screen shots, copy paste always flash but have now decided I'd like to try and install a custom ROM but don't want to lose all my installed apps, what can I do to back all these up? and what do I need to do to install these Roms.

Whats confusing me is all this talk about flashing radio??? means nothing to me

I just want better performance and what ROMS would you recommend

THANNNNNNKKKK YOUUUUUU

[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Hi guys, I have noticed that the DHD has some issues with audio playing. I have noticed that sometimes, when using the HTC Music app and switching sound enhancements the app sometimes crashes, or audio stops completely forcing me to restart the device.

Also yesterday I was out driving for about 4 hours. I had Car Tunes app playing music and CoPilot Live 8 running for my SatNav, with the DHD plugged into my car audio using phono. I noticed that after unplugging and plugging in the audio cable, the audio would become very erratic. Car Tunes would always play audio full volume, but CoPilot (voice) would vary from being almost inaudible to full volume. This just seemed to happen randomly and would correct itself every now and again, then 'break' then 'fix' over and over.

On my way home yesterday the audio in both CoPilot and Car Tunes stopped working while plugged into phono. Audio is perfect without phono, but when phono is plugged in no audio can be heard. This is pretty strange as system sounds screen lock, volume adjust tone, etc. all work fine with phono plugged in.

I have noticed the sound enhancements crash bug with my 2 previous DHD devices as well as this one. One thing I have done to this is S-Off and BUZZ oc-uv 1.28 kernel.

Recap:

Yesterday while plugging phono in and out over and over (using satnav and leaving/re-entering car) audio would randomly become high/low in CoPilot only. Testing other music apps (to find satnav audio problem) found that Music app crashes/kills all audio/causes reboot of device when activating/chaing sound enhancement.

And now...

Phono out

- all sound works

Phono in

- no music audio (any app)

- no video audio (any app)

- no apps sound (Angry Birds, NFS game, etc)

- CoPilot voice OK

- system sounds OK

- if audio is playing before phono, when phono plugged in audio can be heard for split second

Has anybody else had issues like these? It doesnt seem to be a broken phono jack as some audio does come through it. I'm not up to speed with Android enough to know what handles different types of audio, or what could be the issue.
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Does nobody else have any issue like this?

Could anybody who is up to speed with Android advise if this would be a corrupted system file of some description?
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
Well I didn't read all, but I think something is wrong when CoPilot is running...

On another day I was driving and playing music at same time, using the headset out to pluggin to my car. I needed to use GPS and start CoPilot. Selected a route and when the voice needed to say something the music simply was muted (or paused) ...

I didn't try too much cause CoPilot start to freeze my device and eventually I had to reset the phone with much difficulty...

Probably CoPilot is the culprit of all this

I have to try another gps program. Going to test Ndrive.

I miss so much iGO (it's not on sale for general users) and TomTom (not at all)
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
OK so another update on this.

Today I was out on another 5 hour journey and had CoPilot operating perfectly all day through my car audio (using phono). After around 3.5hrs of driving I got held up in very heavy traffic and was pretty much stationery so I decided to put on Youtube to pass the time with a few quick videos and noticed no audio was coming from it either so I used the volume buttons to make sure audio was at full.......turns out it was all the way down to mute!! This shouldnt have been as I always have youtube (and media volume in general) up to full. So I turn it up and it worked perfectly again. So I thought I would try my luck and test music....it was also now working flawlessly!!

This is really peculiar as I know I checked the volume of Car Tunes, HTC Music and Rockplayer numerous times each, before and after device reboots the other day when it wasnt working. It seems that all of a sudden the audio is now working again through phono, without any device reboots or reconfiguration of any kind.

One thing though.........I'm now back to having the high music / low CoPilot voice issue again.

Perhaps this may be some sort of CoPilot issue affecting audio on Android ?

Would love to hear some feedback or suggestions on this one lol :confused:

[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Well known problem. You have to set the global notification to the one you want your email notification to be. Then you can choose notification sounds for other applications as usual.

You could always grab the email.apk from an earlier Cognition build and replace it.

Hi everyone,

I am having the following problem here.

I have got an android device with an selfcoded applicationloader.

(Kiosk mode, Appcenter….)

How can I deny an users access to an application loaded, for instance, because of a systemevent?

Short example:

I have a galaxy tab here.

If I am inside my applicationloader and longpress the home button, the "shortly executet" menu appears and inside that menu there is a button to switch to the taskmanager.

With the taskmanager usable the user could simple kill/uninstall my applicationloader and do whatever he / she wants with the device.

Hello Everyone,

I want to know what the best GPS settings are for the Vibrant. I have seem to not been lucky with GPS settings in the past week. Everything worked well until i flashed a new rom and lost the GPS ability to lock. It can see the satellites but not lock on.

Can someone direct me to the best flashable zip or give me a step by step to change the settings? Ive also attempted to flash a few gps fixes but the settings don't stick! Could I have fried my radio?

[Vibrant General] epakrat75:
No GPS settings may be needed unless you insist on staying on your current rom.

AFAIK, i9000 based roms break the GPS while JK2 based ons won't. That's been my experience anyhow. So, I now ignore all i9000 based roms because I need the GPS to work. I don't expect this situation to change either until Vibrant kernel sources for 2.2 have been released.

Unofficial official Stock JK2 2.2 (CWM / ODIN) or AOSP-ish v1.1 are JK2 based while Macnut, Onyx and Obsidian (v5 excluded) roms are not. You can typically easily tell what you're running by whether the i9000 logo shows up on boot or not.

Hey, i've been searching the internets for info on possible water damage on the g2 and this is the only site i've found so far.

A couple of days ago, I got one of the Zagg InvisiShields for my G2 and put it on. The next day, I noticed some lines/darkened portions of the screen/slight discolorations and I'm not sure what exactly caused it. I read on one of the threads that it could possibly be an air pocket in the digitizer, but I still think it may be liquid damage. I've tried the rice (even got some of that silica dessicant) for over a day and it hasn't gotten any better. Assuming that the G2 water indicators are similar to all the other droids (white or crosshatched when dry) my phone is clean in terms of getting dunked.

Anyone have any ideas? I was just starting to get used to my G2 too :( Just switched over from the iPhone
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwbarnes67:
Pictures may help, since we really can't imagine what your screen may look like.

Have you tried taking off the protector and re-applying? They have a lifetime warranty and can be relpaced.

And water indicators are all pretty much the same. White is good, red or pink show that they have been exposed to water or moisture.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian314g:
Yeah, first thing you should try is removing the screen protector...a little dust, moisture, finger prints, etc could be the culprit. Hope that is the case.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthewdavisnelson:
I'm still having problems, as are a number of others. I might be mistaken but I don't think it has anything to do with Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS4, to which I upgraded over the weekend. It seems that a number of others, including users of AT&T, Sprint, and VZW, are all having the problem on their "Facebook for Android" apps.

When I have time in a bit, I'll restore an older nandroid of my EVO -- one that is running Warm TwoPointTwo RLS3 -- and see whether my Facebook app is still functioning normal. That would be one way to better determine whether a custom ROM is interfering with the app.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthewdavisnelson:
So, I restored my nandroid with Warm TwoPointTwo RLS3, which has always worked flawlessly for me and never interfered with any of my apps. Upon trying to start my "Facebook for Android" app, I was informed that my session had expired and that I needed to log in again. I logged in successfully but was greeted by the familiar message that we've all been seeing: "An error had occurred while fetching data; 500/Internal Server Error."

This leads me to believe that either the app is crap or Facebook is crap. It could be both are crap. In either case, Myn's ROM is not responsible for the problem.

In general, 500 errors are server up by a Web server any time it cannot (or fails to) fulfill a request. It is not a problem with our Android phones.

My "Facebook for Android" app is working tonight: the news feed starting working at some point during the day and I can now read all of my FB friends' statuses.
