[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
I know what you mean, I would have thought it would "just work" if you connect the phone in "Disk Drive" mode, where the SD card is mounted on the PC.

You're not using a USB hub, right, you've tried connecting straight to your PC's USB ports ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
no, there is no usb-hub used. the connections i tried were always direct ones.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mordecai83:
The next thing to do would be to try to connect your phone to another computer. Because it could also be a problem with your phone rather than your usb ports.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
well, the phone connects perfectly to my desktop-pc...

It's a long shot, but I did some Googling on "Lenovo T61 usb problem" and saw one report from a guy whose USB didn't work on his T61 with Ubuntu until he upgraded the BIOS :confused:

Steviewevie,you are doing my work,you know :)

Well thanks for the info,do you happen to have a link?

Edit:thinking about that... updating the BIOS??
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
I only had a quick look, so a more extensive look may well turn up some useful info. The thread I stumbled across was at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=673501
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
Ok,i took a look at the link (thanks!), but that deals with ubuntu 7.04. To me, it doesn't seem to be the issue that usb ports are not working, as other usb sticks and my touch pro 2 were recognized without any problems.

Imho,it is like when I connect to the front ports of my desktop, when the connection doesn't work either, so I'll have to live with it. Thanks for your support anyway (I'm still open for new approaches)

BTW: it really bugs me that I can't just plug that device and use it as a mass storage like any other...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
i have absolutely no idea why, but now it works... today, when i was charging the phone via usb (the thing, that was working from the beginning), my DZ rebooted spontaneously and afterwards it just showed the missed connection options...

no i just need to figure out how to use the internet-forwarding (dont know the correct translation - what i want is to use the internet from my pc on the phone) ... any clues?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pileot:
If your SGS is randomly locking up, crashing, powering off, or generally acting up for no reason this may help

This is true for bell vibrants, prolly works on other models too but i didnt test, cant hurt to try.

Go to dialer

Punch in *#2263#

go to WCDMA

select 850 (the frequency bell uses)

how it works:

The I9000M seems to have a problem when searching between the different bands. Somewhere around 1900 it locks up, so by doing the above steps it forces the phone to stay on one specific frequency and not search and lock up.

If you do not own a bell vibrant make sure you know what frequency your phone is on. If you lose connection you can set it back to auto, so i would say the risk factor in this procedure is very low.

I have seen a bunch of threads where people have problems with their phones locking up, hopefully this can help fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkadelick:
when I tried to type in that code nothing happened a box popped up and said "Rejected"

lol wtf?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pileot:
perhaps it only works with the canadian (bell) vibrant? never tried it with other phones. Perhaps try:

*#*#197328640#*#*

debug

phone control

network control

band selection

wcdma

wcdma 850

Essentially its doing the same thing just the other way is shorter

remember if you have a different phone other than the I9000M and the dial code does work you want to make sure you select the frequency your phone is on.

If it still doesnt work which version of the galaxy s do you have?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkadelick:
I have the bell vibrant i9000m

so i got into that menu (i was missing a #)

what essentially does this do again ?

GPS fix ?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TjPhysicist:
Hi, I have tried both HD roms and normal roms of the sense kind and the no sense kind. I have noticed that SenseHD roms like supervillainHD or RCMixHD have better clarity.

I am usually pretty poor at noticing these things so its hard for me to explain, but its like watching 480p vs 720p on a 1280x720 screen. Everything is clearer. I am wondering why that is so?. The only thing I know is the lcd.density variable in the file in /system but its not that, both say 240.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
The HD screen is larger though and as they're the same screen resolution things will look tighter on a smaller screen. I agree it does look better, though
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TjPhysicist:
i dont get it..so what exactly is being changed here? i mean what part of code/file etc?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Dunno, obviously assuming the pixels in the DHDs screen are larger than the Desire so when put onto a smaller screen it looks smalle and neater
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furma:
Desire HD sense uses smaller font (but not the Desire Z sense)

so more stuff fits on the screen and you think everything is higher res

also, some graphics and animations are new - i even think the new clock widget uses higher res pictures hence it looks much better than the old one

Desire HD has larger screen, but same resolution as the old Desire
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zewill:
Hello all.

I have a little, but very annoying problem on my HD2. Im on 3.14, 3.03, WWE flashed with SSPL (previously was blocked on a ****ty NLD (dutch) version rom)

All is working fine, ive installed many apps, and games.

However, it seems when i exit some games (tower defence is very buggy, or gameloft Ferrari game), i go back to the home screen and i notice the clock has changed time. But im not sure its the games that do that, i just dont know what makes it change.

Say its 9.15, it will be 11.15. If its 7.20, it will show 9.20.

It seems it always adds 2 hours on my time. How come? Data connection is always turned off (i dont wanna use it) and its not connected to internet, so it cannot check internet time. But why is it doing this suddenly? wasnt doing this a few days ago, and i havnt really installed new stuff in those pas few days.

Thanks in advance for all explanations:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zewill:
Afgter having looked into the problem, it appears it is because of GMT zones and IGO8 nav programme.. any one else had a similar problem with the software?

I think it syncs gps time (greenwich) and this is what creates the problem, or at least the software is inteferring with the phone... damn..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zewill:
Nobody else has this problem? I thought it was from IGO8 programme, but now when i exit some games, it also changes the time by 1 hour. Why is this? The minutes are always correct, its just the hour that jumps 1 or 2 hours..

This is really frustrating.. Anyone has some help suggestions? (apart from buying a proper watch? :) )

Thx!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
Assuming that you have the correct time zone, then the problem is that the phone is getting its timing from the phone network.

Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> GSM\UMTS Services -> Time Synchronization -> Get Settings. Untick 'Automatic change time zone and clock'.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zewill:
Thanks buddy for the clear answer. I didnt even know those setting were available via the "MENU" in the seetings:)

But i set all time zones correctly, why was it changing the thing? Im GMT+1, and everywhere in my phone it was put in as GMT+1, so why would it add another hour? Anyways, time will tell:)

Get a +thanks! Will report back to see if time doesnt get distorted again:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troed:
This is a general problem in HD2 phones all over Europe and all over different ROMs

There are already a lot of threads about it (search "winter time change") and the only solution offered by HTC until now is to switch off time sync completely (in personal -phone settings and settings HTC time sync)

HTC already promised a solution to several members of XDA as posted 3-4 weeks ago but still has no solution to it.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardatdat:
When using my Archos 70, I find out that the screen orientation is somehow strange.

1st - I like to use it in portrait. However, I cannot make the screen 'lock' to portrait orientation. The 'lock' feature only supports landscape orientation

2nd - Even in portrait mode, when using some apps, the orientation is inverted (such as z4root). Seems Archos makes the default portrait position to be like 'power button at the bottom and the USB at the top). However..... I think most of you will agree that we all like the power button AT THE TOP. :cool:

So, is there a way to fix the orientation (default) to portrait, with power button at the top?

Thanks for your help.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fzelle:
1. Yes lock is Landscape, that has to do with the stand.

2. This has to do with the way android works. Normaly view is stopped and started again with the new orientation by the os. But the developer can tell Android that it handöes this switch itself and then the app is responsible for thee switching.

So there is no way atm to change this.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TempestDK:
Whenever I use an application (on my A101) that only works in portrait mode, the power button is always at the top.

So far I have tried with Twonky and z4root.

[Legend Android Development] carlojessurun:
My legend is was running on Azure 1.0.1 and I was reading about a overclocked kernel. This post: Customized stock FroYo kernel 2.6.32.17-g732a780.

So i downloaded it, selected it in the clockworkmod recovery and flashed it.

When i reboot my legend now you will see the htc logo and before it can actually start the rom it reboots again.

When i try to go to the bootloader it displays a strange red "!" sign and an icon of a phone.

Does anyone know what i should do right now?

Thanks for your help.
[Legend Android Development] Rapier:
It was answered several times by now...you could use search, right?

At the red sign, hold volume up and press power till a blue menu appears. Select "recovery" from there and you'll go to ClockworkMod recovery screen. You can restore from a backup (made one before right?) or flash another zip/rom from there if you have it on the sdcard. If not, you can push one with adb command and flash it afterwards
[Legend Android Development] carlojessurun:
It says: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

The blue screen does not have the option to go to the clockworkmod recovery.

Options are:

1. Reboot system now

2. Apply sdcard:Update.zin

3. Wipe data/factory reset

4. Wipe cache partition
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Use option 2
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
You choose option nr. 2.. Apply sdcard:Update.zip..

This will load the Clockworkmod Recovery.. (from the update.zip) which is located at the root of your sd-card... If it is not.. then you are screwed..:rolleyes:
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Not screwed, he just needs to re-download it

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplizz:
I am moving to the US for six months, and buying the NS is the first thing on my list :)

But I'm not an american, and don't entirely understand how cell plans works there.

What is the cheapest possibility for me? I need unlimited data, and some call minutes and texts, but it doesn't need to be unlimited. Since I'm only staying for six months, I don't want to be in a two-year agreement.

Can I for instance buy the NS unlocked from T-mobile, and then get the "Everyting Data - With Any Mobile" for 69.99 from Sprint? Is that the cheapest I can get?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smasherz:
the cheapest way should be T-Mobile with the Even More Plus which does not require any contract. If you want the NS you will have to pick one of two GSM carriers which are T-Mobile and AT&T.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplizz:
So T-mobile Even More with unlimited data and 500 talk for 79.99 is the way to go? This is over 40% more expensive than in Norway for unlimited everything. Not fun.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendiy:
There is an "Even More Plus" plan that is off contract. T-Mobile pulled it from their website last month, but you can still get it if you go to one of their stores. Just Google "Even More Plus". It's about $20 less a month than then Even More plan and you are not on a 2 year contract. At&t does not have off contract plans.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingkee:
T-Mobile EM+ FlexPay will be the best bet. Since NS supports T-Mobile 3G band (you can use 2G on both T-Mobile and AT&T though), you can enjoy better internet experience with T-mobile.

EM+ 3 in 1 (TTW) FlexPay

$60 with 500 minutes

$70 with 1000 minutes

$80 unlimited minutes

These plans include messaging (text and MMS) and internet service.

If you want to use the phone as modem (it has mobile hotspot, so you can tether over wifi), you may need to pay $15, but you should try it first before paying the fee. If you don't see any error, you don't have to pay.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prod1702:
If you can get away with not getting FlexPay ie. your credit is good enough for a normal account don't get FlexPay. I work for T-Mobile and FlexPay is one of the worse things T-Mobile has. Its nice for people who have bad credit or no credit but when you are trying to do things with your account you are very limited to what you can do. I mean very limited.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplizz:
Thank you for your advice. I'm considering to only get a data plan, and use Google Voice for calling. Is this possible?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sippy_mo:
Google Voice uses minutes since it calls a US-based phone number to route your call that way. However, it looks like the Nexus S will be able to do VoIP with a SIP account. So you could do that.

I don't think T-Mobile will let you get a data-only plan on a phone though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
Buy the phone full price and dont get sucked into a contract that you will eventually pay full price for phone anyway

Get the $60 with 500 minutes

on contract its $79 month

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Flying_Fox:
If you buy a t-mobile phone unlocked, it'll only run on a gsm carrier with gsm plans.

Sprint, Verizon and Metro PCS are CDMA and therefor their networks are incompatible with the nexus s.

Your best bet would be to buy it unlocked and buy a t-mobile pre-paid sim or something because its I think $1 a day for unlimited internet and $.10 per text and minute used I think
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danthrax27:
You can buy a simple mobile sim card and you can have everything unlimited calls, picture, text, video messages and internert. Simple mobile works with T-Mobiles antennas. All of it for $60.00 exact no taxes and its a good choice I had T-Mobile $59.99 plan 500 mins, text and unilimited data and it came out around $80 something with charges i didnt understand. So if u dont want to pay the extra charges beside the plan i suggest u to get simple mobile.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingkee:
You have 2 options:

1. Even More Plus data only plan for smartphones: $40/month, no contract, voice calling is optional

2. PAYG webpass $1.5/day, but I don't recommend it because it's pretty unreliable (too much error when you try to subscribe).

Postpaid plans require your Social Security Number (an number for US residents), that's why I recommend FlexPay except T-Mobile allows temporary residents (no SSN) to have postpay plans.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplizz:
This seems like a great plan! Does anybody have experience with Simple Mobile? Is it the same coverages as T-Mobile? Good 3g reception?

Can I tether with wifi?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplizz:
What do you mean with voice calling is optional? Regular voice over GSM? So I can still use Skype or something to call with data only plan?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
Yea because you're under contract or you're buying things on android market and having it bill your tmobile account

If you're not on a contract its it comes to avr $65 including tax

Wow for $65 I get 500 minutes, unlimited text and internet is a really good deal. My att contract is ending next week so I will be signing up for T mobiles ever more plus

[HD2 General] xspyda:
I am considering picking up and HD2 and loading it with the latest Desire HD Rom.

Before I fork out, can anyone who has seen both running side by side explain any disadvantages of doing so?

I'd like to hear how the performance is, as the DHD is blisteringly fast and if the HD2 seriously lags with the DHD rom I may well reconsider. Obviously the camera is a selling point of the DHD but when we are looking at nearly £300 difference I can live with the reduced megapixel count!

Seriously tempted to get the DHD and dual boot it with Android and Winmo 6.5 but would love to hear from you guys first about any down sides.

People who have done this already, are you pleased with the result or hankering for the DHD?

Thanks.
