Ok, this must be a stupid question but you see, one of the main reasons I gave up with WM smartphones in the past was size. It was hard for me to move around with such a big phone.

So where do you guys keep your phone, especially in the summer time when you don't wear coats with large pockets but just jeans with a t-shirt?

I usually move around a lot, from one place to another, and when I don't have a suitcase with me, I have to keep in my hands keys, wallet (when I don't want to have it in my pocket) and a large phone. This used to make my life harder and so I changed to a small phone. Now, that I'm getting a large phone again, I started thinking.
[Desire HD General] JamesBarnes:
How small are your pockets? The phone fits easily in my pocket!
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Yeah, I could imagine someone worrying about carrying a 7" tablet, but the Desire HD.. It fits my pocket.
[Desire HD General] prank1:
Fits in my pocket fine, but my jeans do have quite large pockets. Go to a shop that sells the DHD and have a look at it in the flesh
[Desire HD General] Aamir.Badat:
fits in my pocket fine also i got a pouch which increasez the size of the phone but i have big enough pockets
[Desire HD General] Ozzy1:
I have mine in my pocket. Even at work. I dont have anything else in the pocket though.
[Desire HD General] panyan:
usually on the table in front of me, or in my pocket if im moving around, OR!, in my hand if im using it ;)

[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
In my pocket, it's really not that large, I can even keep it in my jeans pocket (can't sit down with it there though)
[Desire HD General] paulus_01:
In my pocket, including my jeans pockets...no problem whatsoever ;)
[Desire HD General] Rixsta:
I have to put mine in a dolly trolley hahahaha...

Jokes...Ive got a hydro gel case and it still fits in my pocket.
[Desire HD General] oldmanofskye:
Although Desire HD looks like a "big"phone, what makes it "not too big" is the thickness - it just fits the pocket without being too visible. And the weight is just on the border of being just right and not to heavy. The bottom line is this: go to the shop, ask if you can put it in your pocket (so you won't be accused of stealing ;) and see for yourself.

Ps. I was jailbraking my friends iphone the other day and god, how small the screen felt! When it comes to touch screens bigger means better (easier too use) - and Desire HD hits the sweet spot between too big and not too big :)
[Desire HD General] kafkatamura:
I got a dhd htc pouch from amazon. It protects the whole thing.
[Desire HD General] andreasy:
That must be the reason. You see, my older phones like iMate JASJAM was too thick although the screen size was not too big but I had hard time having it in my pocket.

Well, thanks to you all for your feedback, I will know better next week when mine arrives.
[Desire HD General] mariolo20:
Pocket, it ain't that big as people say.

Maybe if for women with tight jeans its to big, but in that case, they usually got a big ass bag where an tablet could find room ;)
[Desire HD General] Aamir.Badat:
Soo true an ipad would fit in there.
[Desire HD General] Godo_PPL:
I put my Streak in my back pocket when I'm out and about, Or in my jacket pocket when I'm driving.

At home it sits on the table or in it's cradle..

Should be no problem to keep the Desire HD in the same way.

[EVO 4G General] Trident:
A friend who just got an EVO a few weeks ago suddenly has a red LED lit continuously when the phone is on. Everything seems to be working correctly. The LED does occasionally blink off, but is on most of the time. Tried rebooting and changing a few settings. His EVO is completely stock, no root (yet).

Anyone know what this is about?
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
Couldn't honestly say. Probably its a bug in the stock Rom. Once he root and flash a custom Rom , it may go away

[EVO 4G General] edisepic:
if its on the right side of the earpiece speaker then thats the 4G notification led

let me know what side
[EVO 4G General] Trident:
When looking at the front of the phone, it's on the left side of the earpiece. It's the same (or very close to) the green/amber Power LED.
[EVO 4G General] Trident:
I was looking at my friend's EVO again tonight- I noticed that the red LED that's appearing is right below the green/amber POWER LED. It's hard to see the actual colors, but I took the picture to show location. The LED on top is amber [charging]. The one immediately below it goes off when the screen is off, but is otherwise on all the time.

Has anyone ever seen this before?
[EVO 4G General] verse187:
Thats the light sensor when you make a call and you put it to the face it turns off your screen when your talking that phone maybe came defective
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skyjumper:
There's a really simple way to prevent CyanogenMod from overwriting your custom /system changes during an update. Create the file '/system/etc/custom_backup_list.txt' with a list of files within /system that you don't want to be overwritten.

For example, to prevent CM from wiping out Swype, open adb shell and type this:

mount -o remount,rw /system
cd /system/etc
echo lib/libSwypeCore.so >custom_backup_list.txt
echo app/Swype.apk >>custom_backup_list.txt
cd /
mount -o remount,ro /system

If you use teferi's custom keymap, do this:

mount -o remount,rw /system
cd /system/etc
echo lib/libSwypeCore.so >custom_backup_list.txt
echo app/Swype.apk >>custom_backup_list.txt
echo usr/keylayout/vision-keypad.kl >>custom_backup_list.txt
echo usr/keychars/vision-keypad.kcm.bin >>custom_backup_list.txt
cd /
mount -o remount,ro /system

Then the next time you flash CM, your changes to /system will still be there. If you want to see why this works, take a look at /system/bin/backuptool.sh

Hope this helps
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cparekh:
Thanks! This is great; now I can easily keep my Email.apk that doesn't require me to enter a alphanumeric password every time I want to use the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sundar2012:
CM probably needs to overwrite build.prop but I've been changing the LCD density in this file. Is there a way to use a seperate file to override the lcd density so that i can let CM overwrite build.prop but still maintain lcd density after a flash?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skyjumper:
Whatever commands you put in /data/local/userinit.sh will run at boot. So in adb shell, type this for a density of 215:

cd /data/local
echo setprop qemu.sf.lcd_density 215 >userinit.sh
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sundar2012:
awesome! thank you!

Don't suppose you would know how to get the CM update to not install/auto delete after installation apks like ADWLauncher and wifi calling?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kalandros:
Thank you!

This may be the long lost solution to my Swype and Cyan Problems. The new Release Candidates are destroying my swype and not liking it's return after installing the new Cyan. So, if this can basically help me update without losing much, it's a god send. Especially the LCD density.

You're a genius.

Thank you.

Hmm, seems the issue is still persistent. Thanks though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] apzalo:
Should userinit.sh and custom_backup_list.txt survive the upgrade or should they both be included in the backup list file?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] igashu:
If you look at the actual script, it seems that it ignores the backuptool if .installscript exists, and in practice, I've noticed that nothing gets saved when flashing via ROM Manager. Is this, in fact, what's happening, and is there a way around it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] muness:
You can put the following in /data/local/userinit.sh:

I haven't tried this for removing the Wifi Calling app, so ymmv. I remove a much larger set of apps myself (facebook, email, live wallpapers, amazon mp3 store, DSPManager, FileManager, Browser). http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Barebones has a list of apps that can be removed safely.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IConrad01:

Just delete them from the cmupdate.zip before flashing. Cwm recovery doesn't require sig so u don't have to worry about resigning it.

This is driving me crazy because I know I have used this command before but i cannot get it to work now... What is the deal?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chubb16:
I need that apk
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
Used this method to when going from stock to CM 6.1.1 and could not get it to work. I had to push/install manually from ADB.

Anyone had any luck? I did what the OP said then flashed. Was I supposed to do anything after flashing wiping and then flashing (CM & gapps)?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hot_Hands:
Make sure you have root in the shell by typing su.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teegee17:
Try the solution from @codington half way down this page: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1205990&page=42

It's using openvpn, but I got it working last night. In addition to the instructions, you'll need to create the directories /system/xbin/bb (as mentioned in the next page by @xda890). I also had to put my openvpn folder (with settings files) into /etc as well before I could sign in.

But it works a treat!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funtoosh:
Yeah openvpn works fine after rooting, we are talking about pptp vpn
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cougar694u:
Got it fixed!

Okay, so got it figured out.

After a fresh install, wifi works fine. Then, I'd run Titanium Backup and restore a bunch of stuff, including the Titanium part for the wifi APs and such. A lot of the settings wouldn't take precedence until AFTER a reboot. It's at this point WIFI would fail.

I took a nand backup, full wipe, then re-setup the phone and all good. Flashed the wifi calling add-on and still have wifi.

Also, since google restored the settings, it had the AP's saved anyway, so no need to restore that through Titanium. I rebooted a few times, turned wifi on & off, installed Mobile Defense, which required a reboot, too. In testing, I did find that speeds on the N1's 3G are decent. The upload is almost double that of my RoadRunner.

I still have carpy GPS lock/reception, though.

Hope this helps anyone else who has the problem I had.

[G Tablet Android Development] darkvette07:
I have tnt 2.00 and it works fine but wanted to update to 2.04 have read multiple post and tried to update it using the clockwork mod but have had no luck.

I put the update.zip in the main folder and replaced the update of tnt 2.00. I go the the rom manager and boot in recovery mode and eventually get a triangle with an exclamation point and get a quick boot back to my tnt 2.00.

Where am I going wrong?
[G Tablet Android Development] short/y:
As roebeet pointed out in the first post, if you're flashing with clockwork mod recovery, you need to extract update.zip from his ZIP file and put THAT on your SD card.
[G Tablet Android Development] darkvette07:
So basically your saying that with the clockwork mod you do need an sd card and have to put the update on the card.

I know that you have to unzip it and only put the update.zip file in if you are using the clockwork mod but didn't know you had to put it on an sd card.

When I originally changed the rom to tnt 2.0 I just put it on the internal storage.
[G Tablet Android Development] jacindc:
No, /sdcard is the internal storage. Just put the update.zip in the root of the internal storage.
[G Tablet Android Development] short/y:
Yeah, what he said.

One of the problems for new guys is how things are named. And the fact that they're named different things between TnT (and the Lite variant), CM6 and clockwork. TnT (and Lite) as well as clockwork, all call the internal storage "sdcard". CM6b4 calls internal storage "emmc" cuz apparently that's what it's called on phones that have both internal storage and an SD/MicroSD slot.
[G Tablet Android Development] P_6:
That's actually the industry standard. Why VS decided to setup the device that way is anyone's guess. Same for a lot of the things they did.

Without this great community support, this thing would be a a pile of crap. A pile of crap with potential, but still a pile of crap.
[G Tablet Android Development] darkvette07:
I put it in the folder and still get the white triangle with the black exclamation when it tries to reboot and reverts back to the tnt 2.00.

So what is causing this white triangle to appear and not letting me update??

I get the same symbol when I try to backup my current rom using the rom manager.

I get the same white triangle when I use the "Install ROM from SD Card" in rom managment....

should help ya fine, just skip the clockworkmod steps if you already have it running.
[G Tablet Android Development] TaterTot24:
Do you have to wipe all your data everytime to update to a new ROM version... it would seem like it would get tiresome installing all my apps/data everytime
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I think that, at this point, it's not critical if you're staying on the same mod. Only wipe if you have problems, but of course backup your device before upgrading (just in case).

Flipping between mods, on the other hand, is more risky. I would highly recommend wiping data in that case.

I havent actually seen the Cyanogen Rom/Vibrant thread so I figured Id start one. So after my buddy put it on his captivate, I figured I would take the plunge and I would try it on the Vibrant.

GOES WITHOUT SAYING I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR PHONE! FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK

Steps for Flashing

Addons

Installed it last night and Initial thoughts... AWESOME. Granted yes this is still very beta and buggy. Other than that, flash went smooth and have only noticed a few things.

Noticed Issues

Cyanogen Issue Tracker

Battery Test

COOL feature, Somehow, the apps I had installed before were pushed from Obsidian v5 and now to Cyanogen. I didn't reinstall them but they are still there. lol

Other than that all the gApps work, texting, fbook, phone (except for the talking issue I mentioned earlier which I havent tested on the vibrant yet), tweetdeck

VERY smooth and I think ill be on it from here on out.

Enjoy.

GIVE THE dev teams the credit they deserve. I just flashed the rom, they did the work. They get the credit.
