[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gargantuel:
Just to give a little return of experience.

I tried several time to have a stable Android build on my HD2. I was able to correctly install it but after few reboot, Android wasn't able to boot anymore (was blocked on the green HTC logo).

Finally I changed from a 4Gb SD Card to a 8Gb and this problem was solved.

For people having the same issue, here is my exact configuration:

SD Card : Sandisk 8Gb

Android : MDJ FroYo HD v4.1 MDJ S7.3HD

ROM Radio : 2.15.50.14

ROM build : EnergyROM 23xxx

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cecilrosa:
Hello everyone! Thanks for reading my first post.

I have an imate jasjam that comes with some cellcom software. I think this software is preventing me from accessing my wireless network in my house.

When I load up internet explorer it tries to dial Cellcom GPRS - which has no minutes and isn't connected - the phone never goes through the regular internet. Is there a way to disable the cellcom connection and tell the phone to only go through the wireless network?

Interestingly enough, after a soft reset it DOES get online through the wireless, but only for one second... then the cellcom software seemingly "wakes up" and only will try and dial through it.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for your time.
[Desire HD General] t3rm3y:
First android phone, just wondering if i can hide the top bar, or make it opaque? as my wallpapers get chopped off :(

also, can i change the t-mobile screen at start up and shut down, bit gay looking, want it removed.

(does it involve flashing new roms, or are there programs out there?

(came from wm where anything was possible)

cheers
[Desire HD General] Diamondback:
You can remove the T-Mob splash screen with going S-OFF and flashing a new one.

The second T-Mob screen is your bootanimation, this will go away with a custom rom.

Look for all the tutorials in the development section. There is all you need.
[Desire HD General] gens6200:
You can hide the top bar with Launcher Pro.
[Desire HD General] ruchern:
What do you mean by the top bar?
[Desire HD General] tomegranate:
That's interesting that your phone has the crappy T-Mobile boot animation - I'm on T-Mobile, on contract, and they supplied my DHD direct, and don't have any branding at all. What other changes did they make to your handset?
[Desire HD General] pwraggcan:
Adw laucher let's you hide the notification bar by swiping up on the home screen. Splash screens can be changed. There are posts with instructions in the theme/app section of the dedire hd forum. I've used them and I can confirm, they are working.
[Desire HD General] StellaDel:
Same here, unless he means the lock screen, that comes up T-Mobile apart from that no branding at all.
[Desire HD General] karthics4:
So is the contract Tmobile HTC Desire HD totally unbranded like all their phones except for the web n walk icon and splash screen ?
[Desire HD General] StellaDel:
My splash screen is HTC and I have no web n walk icon anywhere?
[Desire HD General] Diamondback:
I have a german t-mobile DHD and it came in an unopened retail box but had a custom splash screen as well as custom rom with T-Mob bootanimation, some apps (TV, Navigon Select, some media center...) and some changes like forbidden tethering...

Rooted, S-OFFed and flashed a custom rom without any problems later i flashed a custom splash screen.

So in germany t-mob has some brandings but only software wise.

Was the same with my old Nokia N95 8GB...
[Desire HD General] ciderz:
AWD Launcher.You can also remove the bottom dock.

Oh yeah im on t-mobile aswell,sent direct from them.I have no tmobile branding anywhere on the phone.

All i had was HTC white screen before the quietly brilliant HTC screen.

If the t-mobile screen you see when booting is first screen you see then to remove that you can only do with eng s-off.
[Desire HD General] t3rm3y:
thanks for replies .,was thinking of flashing a new rom over xmas, when can have time to read the tuts and guides.

i dont know if t-mob added any more junk, no branding on handset, only the screens when boot on and off. there is a t-mobile branding on lockscreen, and one of the choices of home themes is a t-mobile one which features what i believe to be certain standard apps (like a mixture of whats available)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
Since the Nexus S will be sold in-store only and not online by Google themselves there is no custom engraving option. I really liked mine on my N1 and it would be nice to keep them consistent when getting a new Nexus phone. It really made it feel like my phone.

I wouldn't do this, but I'm assuming one would have to send their Nexus S in to some special customization company to get it engraved?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suhas_sm:
:-O :-O :-O :-O

Engraving on plastic ?? :-P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindWolf8:
Hahaha, whoops! :p Forgot it was plastic since the feel of the outer casing of a phone doesn't bother me. I say that now but when I go into Best Buy on the 16th I may change my mind. :p

I flashed the newest RCMixHD, and I tested the camera was OK. When I tried to take a video, after it started, a few seconds later ( about 5 sec ), the camera stopped work and the phone restarted.

I tried to set all of the resolution (except the 720p) and had no luck. I don't know exactly the note that RCMixHD say:

Camera is working (no 720p recording yet, dont even try it!!) THANKS TO SNQ- *New

So, no 720p recording. Any other resolution got work?:confused:
[Desire General] th3:
The camera on it works fine and so do other camera apps like 'LG camera" for images/audio/video on the ROM. I'm using it myself. You're the first I've seen saying it doesn't work. You need to make sure you do a full wipe of everything in Recovery (including dalvik cache) before you install the ROM along with a fair recent radio install.

[Galaxy Tab General] ppctester:
has anyone noticed that in the web browser, brightness reduces to about 30%?

I have the setting on manual to about 70%; every time I go to the browser it automatically reduces the brightness [WTF] if I hit the home button it comes back to the previous setting I chose. if i use the quick bar and go to a recent app it automatically goes back to normal

also even though it reduces brightness in the browser if I use the quick brightness setting it still shows what I had it set to. If I choose the auto brightness setting and then switch to manual again it gets bright again but as soon as I browse to another page it goes to reduced brightness
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
The browser has a separate brightness setting, just hit the menu button in the browser, and there will be a brightness setting :) don't worry it threw me off at first too.

So I haven't updated my rom and radio in a while and was wondering if there is any real point to do so. everything works fine on my phone including any android ports i've put on it. my winmo doesnt allow me to turn sense off as its an old version but that the only real difference that i have noticed. any advice on which rom/radio's are really good right now would be great.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] norodaigh:
I am using this ROM:

http://htcpedia.com/kwbr_HD2/soft/htc-leo-rom.html?page=1

If everything is working ok then tbh there is no point in changing, if you do just make sure you have all of the old ROMS;RADIOS & BUILDS to get back to happies again.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
To be honest, if you're happy then I wouldn't change a thing. If there's anything specific that you'd like then that's obviously a different matter.

As for turning off Sense, there's no Windows ROM that you can't do that in. Go to settings, menu, all settings, today and turn of HTC Sense as a today plugin. (That may not be 100% correct - it's been a while ;))
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Droski:
thanks i have turned sense off, i think the way you explained it was better than i had heard which i couldnt figure out but now im good.

as far as rom/radio. i guess that answers that too.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I could quote you what I use, and I think it's great, but everyone uses different things so we'd all give different advice. Like I said, if you come up with something you need and you don't have it, it may be time for a change, but until then just stick with it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo_zero:
Hi All,

Love the forum, and since I have put froyo on, galaxy s is superb.

I have an orange uk version, terrible. so much bloatware and lag. The media player quality was very poor and glitches galore.

Since the 3 button mod, voodo & froyo upgrade it been very smooth.

What i would like to know if i can use the Salaxy s as a high quality media device connected to my Hifi.

I would like to stream flac's, and HD films from a Linux DLNA server via wifi, as well as browsing the net for you tube etc.

I understand there might be a voodoo sound mod soon, I am hoping this will give a proper line out, or even better direct use of the on board DAC.

What would be the best way to achieve high quality sound output to a hifi, is there a docking unit i should be looking at?

Could i then use a blue tooth keyboard & mouse, and use the USB to a HDMI monitor or mini projector?

Overall, a silent, high quality media centre connneted to my hifi.

I have tried DLNA All share, but its buggy ATM.

Any ideas on the best way to achieve this would be greafully recieved.

Many thanks

Ian

Peace!

Has anyone ever experienced (after a quick boot or turned off and turned on sequence) an endless media scanning process for the external SD in Samsung Galaxy S (I9000 international) after the froyo update?

Model Number GT-I9000

Firmware Version 2.2

Baseband Version I9000DXJPA

Kernel Version 2.6.32.9

External SD - Class 4 San Disc 8GB (confirmed 8GB)

This causes my battery to drain like crazy (I kinda fixed this by installing http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7646738 Aditya Rescan Media Scanner On/Off ) but still does not answer the question why it has endless media scanning

Hope you guys can help

[Android Apps and Games] ladidaaa:
Hi,

The greatest App there is right now is smshare

You have to install this app on your Android phone, and the smshare Extension on your Chrome Browser.

Then you can type your SMS in the Chrome-Extension, and then the SMS will be sent to your phone, which then sends them as normal SMS. No Wifi hassels, and really comfortable and fast.

A new feature of smshare is that your incoming sms can be forwarded to your email account - so you don't even need to touch your phone for communication via SMS.

Another way is to use the Wifi SMS Apps.

On these kind of Apps (like for example RemoteSMS) you have to connect your phone to the same Wlan as your Computer, start the App on the Phone, and then you can log into an Webinterface with your Browser and compose the SMS there which then are sent from your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] AMoosa:
The problem with smshare is that it uses a third party server so if privacy is a concern, then remotesms is much better. I use remotesms and u can actually connect via WLAN, usb or Bluetooth and it's a direct connection so no privacy concerns. Works brilliantly.

Hi guys,

Need some advice here. Firstly, my usb port is broken so I am unable to connect to activesync and I am charging my battery with an external charger.

I need to get my phone back to stock so I can get it sent away for repair.

I have followed the instructions to use the SD card but when it initially turns on to bootloader it flashes up the white screen saying "loading" for like half a second then reverts back to the red, green, blue screen with serial on the bottom. I have tried 2 stock roms and now the same thing. (It has been formatted to FAT32 and tried using the phone to do it as well as the PC through a card reader)

My current SPL - 2.08 HSPL 8G XE

Radio - 2.15.50.14

ROM - HD20 (6.5.3)

I'm not sure if the above make a difference though as surely this is all replaced when you flash a stock rom.

I've been reading various posts for hours but I am at a loss now. Please help!

Since you are doing an SD card flash. Does the SPL revert back to stock or is it still HSPL?

Having never had the need to do this, I hear reports that it flashes back to SPL and others that it doesn't.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kellystewart:
Yup it's reverted back to stock...no trace of HSPL at all :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fergus278:
Hey Kelly!

Just on another note... you need to get the usb port fixed to reinstall HSPL.

Currently i haven't found any method of installing HSPL via micro sd.

Looks like i'll be spending a good few hours in work soldering micro usb connectors!

So what's up with Outlook syncing in Android 2.2? Why is there no simple notes application on this new version of the OS? Why can't it sync with all Outlook features as it did in version 1.6?

It looks as though I will be forced to use Google docs and use something to sync that with Outlook. I use Outlook notes and tasks for work and really need them back on my phone.

I just needed to type and store a quick note on my phone and discoverd that there was no native application for that. Will there be a solution for this in Gingerbread??
[Streak 5 General] 00roberto00:
no native.

i use VCOrganizer (tasks, calendars, notes contacts and categories)

(use only 1 way contact sync or u find doubled contacts on the phone)

it works also with outlook 2010 64bits

i treid many but this is the only one i found that sync also outlook notes

not free
[Streak 5 General] technillion:
...feel your pain. This has been my biggest challenge too coming from years of (relatively) painless Outlook to phone syncing with WinMo phones...but I am loving this more and more every day!

Basically I ended up "moving to the cloud"...using CompanionSync (worth the $$) to auto sync O2k10 to google.com (includes tasks) and EverNote to sync notes. DropBox for documents and folders. Tasks appear in the google calendar on the due date.

wireless sync is only possible if the phone is connected to a charger for 10 minutes, isnt it possible to sync the phone with wifi without having the phone charging?

//Jesper
[Windows Phone 7 General] keyboardP:
Doesn't look like it. According to the official page:

• Your phone and PC are both connected to your home Wi-Fi network. Note that wireless sync is not supported on workplace Wi-Fi networks.

• Your phone battery has at least a medium-level charge ( ) and your phone is connected to an AC power adapter (that is, your phone must be connected to the wall charger and not connected to your computer).

• You're not interacting with your phone. For example, you're not touching things on the screen, the backlight is off, and music and videos aren't playing (it's OK if a song or video is paused).

Down at the very bottom of the topic on the official site "There is no way to manually force it to occur."

I am trying to setup wireless sync in Zune and it gives me this error mentioning zune is not able to connect to wireless. can anyone please help.

Seems to work for me, but i forgot about it until, randomly a few days ago on wall charge, Zune popped up on my PC and it started syncing,

[Windows Phone 7 General] raman_mogal:
Thanks for the reply. I disabled symantec client firewall and anti virus and that did the trick. Thanks again.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i don't think that is an ideal solution. see if you can add an exception in the firewall for zune software, and perhaps fine out what port zune runs off and allow access for that port to zune. you want to keep your firewall and anti virus on. not sure what port zune is on though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
If you use Microsoft Security Essentials's free AV solution / Windows Defender firewall, you won't have any problems with wireless sync. Remember to leave your PC switched on though.

I have the laptop set up where it never goes to sleep, even if is opened or closed.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Windows Phone 7 General] raman_mogal:
Are you facing issue while setting up the sync itself. You will need to connect the device with wire to the laptop and setup wireless sync. If you are facing issue in this stage itself, you may try changing the wireless encryption and try.

I am facing issue with setup and sync also when norton is on. I disabled it and could able to setup sync however everytime i want to sync, then also need to disable huh..

I was able to set up the sync fine. It just never actually works. I've undone the wireless sync and redone it several times.
