[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
I fail to see the point of this thread. A forum thread is most certainly not a database for storing benchmark data, and that data itself is useless without any context. Unless you're comparing multiple ROMs, of the SF to other phones, the numbers are meaningless, and I see no comparisons being made here.

Now, if you file that data away, and present it again later in comparison with the numbers from the same tests on the official Froyo ROM (once it's released), then I will be somewhat interested. ;-)

Stock 2.1 Rooted with Voodoo lag fix

[Fascinate General] Sid 6.7:
Instead of tearing down, why not contribute? Post up benchmarks of other ROMs.

Then we can compare.

I didn't say this thread was only for box stock SF devices.
[Fascinate General] ksizzle9:
My fascinates screen gave me a boner. That seems to be a common occurence. Slap that on there with benchmarks. BTW, not calling u a liar but I have NEVER seen neocore above 55.7. And I have a captivate as well,( well had). Odd. I'm all for it. I don't see why not, put up all the benchmarks from all the different ROMS.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
benchmarks mean very little on this phone. you can get huge quadrant scores from one of the old overclock voodoo kernels but they will not stand up to the newer non oc kernels in everyday use.

After you have flash cwm,open it, scroll down to back up current rom, click it, and then you will have a backed up rom in nandroid.
[Droid X General] silversonic1:
I know that there's probably tons of these, but here goes.

Last night, I tried installing 2.3.320, but ended up looping at the eye. I thought I had installed it wrong, so I tried to access bootstrap recovery to delete the data I hadn't cleared. I was surprised to only be able to access the stock bootloader, 30.04. Anyway, I decided to try using an SBF to restore, but I used the wrong one. Bootloader now loads with these messages, "Err:A5,70,70,00,1F" "MEM_MAP Blank" "Service Req'd".

I got my hands on the system only SBF for 2.3.320 that is floating around, but that still isn't fixing my problem.

Simply put, does anybody know of anything I can do now?
[Droid X General] Str0ntium:
Think you're boned. Shoulda read some of the thread at mydroid before taking this on. Most ppl are bricking, with it. You appear to fall into that category.
[Droid X General] kdkinc:
Go Back to TBH there maybe some help now.

But the 23.15 may also big the big bone.

ouch:eek:
[Droid X General] Steven58AF:
This is awful. I'm a guide on another forum for androids and I'm telling people not to try the new update until there is a full sbf available. I'm so sorry. You are stuck..for now.
[Droid X General] silversonic1:
Well, Verizon's gonna let me swap, so I'll just have to wait until Tuesday and root the new phone.
[Droid X General] edthesped:
I'm preparing to root my X and am trying to get a rescue plan in place prior to rooting. The one thing I can't find is a list of what SBF files can safely be used for a given bootloader revision. I posted this in a thread at another forum. Does what I'm asking for not make sense? Or am I completely missing something?
[Droid X General] SerialKilla:
http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...rikes-back-2-3-320-update-must-rooted-69.html

Post #682 - CZ from TBH is working on a way to restore soft bricked X's,and is making good headway!
[Droid X General] GoldenCyn:
bricked, verizon is overnighting one, should have a good clean one tomorrow.
[Droid X General] edthesped:
Thanks for the link, I'll be following the thread closely. Sorry to hear you're X is in a semi bricked state. At this point I'm quite wary of doing anything to the X but I believe I have a rescue in place. My phone shows to be 2.3.151 and I found VRZ_MB810_2.3.15_1FF_01.sbf so I believe I should be able to safely recover should I brick it. I rooted using Z4 and the bootstrap, then proceeded to freeze the bloat. I'll run like this until UD for the X comes out then depending on SBF requirement / availability will consider trying it out. UD2 is really sweet on the D1 and I've read it's even nicer on the X.

I must be in the minority because I kind of like blur. I did freeze all of the social networking stuff and installed gallery3d, I would continue to use the blur gallery if it synced with picasa.

edit: SerialKilla I see a new rescue sbf was released, did it work for you?
[Droid X General] SerialKilla:
I haven't seen the new .sbf yet...where did you see it? If it's just the sytem only fix, that won't work on mine - I need the full .sbf, or whatever it'll be that CZ and P3 are working on. P3 said to expect something in less than 36 hours, but I haven't seen anything as of yet. Too early yet I think - but I know they've had success in their progress, so fingers crossed!
[Droid X General] edthesped:
Sorry, it was the system only sbf, I d/l'ed it as a backup and judging by it's size it isn't a full system sbf. Hopefully you'll be rocking again by this time tomorrow.

But the movie itself would be considered warez. Its copyrighted. Even if it were bundled with an android device all we could do here would be to provide the shortcut link. But as they said it was the hd2.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lugiber:
I'm using a swedish version of desire-z and sometimes (too often) the phone decides that i'm trying to write capital letters when i'm using the swedish letters Å Ä and Ö. This even happens in the middle of words and the only way to type small letters is by using the software kwyboard. The shift button does nothing.

This is really starting to bug me! Does anyone have a solution?

If so please let me know.

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
I think those letters can only be used in upper case with the keyboard. There is some info in the dev section.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Porcelina:
That is not true. I have the nordic version myself, but I am not experiencing the same issue as lugiber :) Mine works both in upper case at the beginning of words, and in the middle of a text in lower case :)

Edit: Lugiber: Does it happen with all the extra letters, or just some of them?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
Yes, my mistake. I have re-read the thread in the dev section myself.

Looks like it is a bug at the moment, but shutting and re-opening the keyboard helps??
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lugiber:
Ah, didn't know that opening and closing the hardware keyboard fixed the issue. Thanks for the tip! It's still annoying that i have to do this just for the simplest functionality on my phone! Hope the fix will come soon.

(Btw if someone is thinking of buying swiftkey don't do it until a fix has been released becase it will cause åä and ö to constantly be capital letters.)

Crap! I really love this phone, too bad htc didn't have sense enough to beta test the phone enough before the release.

But if they did i guess the wait would have been even longer. And that wouldn't have been fun!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lugiber:
I have no idea. I never write in Danish or Norwegan so those button pretty much stay untouched. Sorry!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enur:
I had the same problem with my DZ in the beginning, and traced the problem down to language selection of the keyboard!

Try to slide out the keyboard and watch two letters pop up in the notification bar - for mine it was EN, and figurated out that it was set to english! After I changed it to Danish, the problem went away! :D Soo kool...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Porcelina:
I noticed that the first day I used the DZ, and changed it... maybe thats why I havent experienced the same problem as TS :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Janik_dk:
Strange - I have a nordic Z also and my danish letters is upper case also sometimes..

I have set my keyboard to danish and T9 (guessing words..).

Either we need to play around more with the language settings or there is a bug...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lugiber:
Hmm, strange. I have set my keyboard to swedish and still experience the issue. Hope there is a bug fix for this soon. I don't want to wear out my keyboard hinges just yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludow:
One solution is select STOCK virtual QWERTY as default input method. That way the bug goes away. Installing any 3rd party virtual keyboard will cause the bug.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowfall:
works on touch

mine works fine if i use the default "Touch input" keyboard, but doesn't work on any other keyboard i have tried. So far only tested "Scandinavian keyboard" and "Smart Keyboard pro".

The fact that it does work consistently (without having to open/close the hardware keyboard) with the default keyboard but not in any other, makes me think that the keyboard sends the code for a capital letter and probably sends some correction info along that the default keyboard listens to but the others ignore... just my guess, i really have no experience with how the keyboards work in android...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vexix:
I have investigated this CAPS nordic problem too. I have found few ways to generate the situation. It appears to generate caps when you haven't activated textfield by tapping it. For example when you write two sms messages in a row. At the first message you tap the textfield to active it and write the message. After sending the first message the text field is allready "active" (cursor blinking there). And if you start to write immediately without closing keyboard or tapping text field it generates only capital nordic letters. Then if you tap the textfield to really activate it again then the capital nordic letters are gone.

I'm not sure if this is the only problem with this CAPS thing but that is easy way to generate it. I think there might be few other situations where CAPS problem exists because sometimes pressing menu -key twice (open and close menu) caps problem disappears but sometimes not. Then sometimes it disappears when closing and opening the keyboard sometimes not. Best results I have had with tapping text field from screen to activate it.

I have informed HTC Support for this matter but all I have got back is: Hard reset your device. I have once done that but it doesn't help either.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da9L:
My experience is slighty different from this one.. But if i write a SMS with HW keyboard, send it and exit the sms thread iam in and go to a new one and write there, the cap letters will be there.. This is if i use the HW keyboard during this .. If i then close the HW keyboard and pull it out again they are gone!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vexix:
I think it is the same situation. When you don't close the HW keyboard and you go to writing text without activating text box by tapping screen you get capital nordic letters.

I got reply from HTC Support from England that they are not aware of that problem (after few replys where I explained the situation) and they gave me Norwegian support phone number, but because of costs to phone there I'll asked if they could give me an email address. Plus I can then get some documentation about what have been discussed even if support person changes. I hope we soon get official fix for this.

I agree that should normally work,but at least for me when using speaker phone I can't just move the phone to wake it. using trackball wake/unlock works fine though
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prj71:
What is that and what does it do?

How hard is it to program the ROM so that the screen turns back on when you touch it?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazzpatriot:
this is how i test my roms callin 226 and it alwayz works
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blma617:
That works but if you have your phone on the table in front of you w/speakerphone enabled while some robot is giving you 5 minutes of number equations, the phone will timeout. When the trackball wake option is selected in CyanogenMod settings/input settings, it will wake the device after you've manually turned the phone off but it doesn't wake the screen after it's timed out. I have been trying to use tasker as a way around this problem but I haven't been able to successfully write a working profile :confused:
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playpolo4life:
just use the vol up + send?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blma617:
I was never aware of this method.. Thanks dude
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrayzeeCarl:
I'm bumping this thread because I have the same problem but my volume rocker is broken/missing so it is very difficult for me to press vol up/down. I need to use a pen tip or needle, which I usually do not have readily available.

Is there any other option out there for me? Why can't I use the trackball or just the Send key????????????

If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

FYI, I'm running GSB 1.4 (CM-7 Gingerbread based ROM).

edit: Some users on the CM forums said that pressing the Menu or Home keys worked, but that doesn't work for me. They were on CM6, so maybe that doesn't work in CM7, I don't know.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I seem to recall that in CM settings, you can configure what buttons can wake the phone up. You should be able to set it to the trackball.

i have installed android for the first time yesterday. this is all new to me (flashing roms and stuff) but it all went ok. i have though noticed that battery life is poor. Firstly, i have searched the forum and noted that many users are stating what the battery usage is in mA. how exactly is this measured? is there an app? secondly, it appears the battery can be effected by what rom, radio etc is installed. if i was to try a different rom or radio, would i have to install android again along with all my apps?

thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GeoMil:
i kind of have this problem too but it hink thats just how these early builds are.

Use currentwidget to measure mA.

My mA idle get down t 5mA, but I am still having some issues getting battery life that i think is acceptable
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 1keynose:
thanks for that. just tried the widget. lowest i get is 7mA
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] roloracer:
5 to 9 mA is great battery consumption at idle, I'm having an issue staying there, I bottom out one day at 3mA but then today my phone doesn't drop below 50mA at idle. Windows Rom and radios are important for it to run smoothly but I don't think a lite rom makes a difference over a full rom, when haret launches , is gonna keep anything from running on windows(so I hear) I've tried many many roms, and the vbn rom, which is a super lite rom, didn't perform better than what I'm using right now which is energy cht. Radio will keep you from having issues with the phone waking up,(bsod) I've tried a bunch of radios and settled with the 2.15, a lot of people swear by it!
