Do u turn on ur GPS?
[Desire HD General] guinnes.s:
There is never anything new on the sense website.
[Desire HD General] cubitusclaudius:
it worked with me twice the first days, but now only able to ring. I locked it. says locked, but isn't... and no location. written to HTCSense, told me the server's down. so we'll have to wait. Not very serious
[Desire HD General] Dolphin87:
phone number is written right with +********

and the gps is on as well
[Desire HD General] cubitusclaudius:
Thanks. solved my problem.

on computer I changed my phone number to +............

on phone I cancelled my HTCSense account and re-put it again with the complete phone number (+............) and everything is OK.

The problem was with incomplete number, it would ring making you think your number is OK,

and on other hand they ask you first the country and then your phone number, making you think you don't have to put the country prefix.

Now Everything is working : phone finder, ring and lock it :)

of course I didn't try to wipe it...;). Thanks again Dolphin87, you drove me to solution
[Desire HD General] jasipoh:
Still not working
[Desire HD General] cubitusclaudius:
Try : cancel your HTCSense account on both computer and phone , redo it putting your entire complete PHONE NUMBER (+your-country.........) for example if you are french : +33 661 310 XX XX.

for me it worked!:) and still works after 2 days. WAOU!
[Desire HD General] Restorer:
For a top international company to have such a crappy outdated website (in both design and function) beggars belief :mad:.
[Desire HD General] wakers:
Can't get anything to work for me, won't ring and says my phone finder isn't ticked, when it is :(

Phone number is entered with the proper prefix :(

Thought it might be down to me having a custom rom, does it work with stock roms ? You other guys experiancing problems running custom roms or Kernels ?

Cheers

Working. See my signature

Bizarrly woke up this morning to find my phone locked.

The location map is kinda working on HTC sense now its says location unknown (last night it had a message about phone finder not being turned on).

Just been on HTC sense though and at the moment i can't get anything to work again :(

[Desire HD General] Chinpochiro:
HTC Sense Dashboard

I realize this thread is a bit old, but I was having the same issue and now it seems to be working. At first I created a sense account from the phone and then logged into the dashboard from the computer a few days laterr. Nothing worked as others have reported. It would always say phone finder not on.

I deleted my sense account on htcsense.com and then removed the account on the phone.

After that I created a new account at htcsense.com and verified the account with the email link they sent me. Then I added the sense account on the phone and signed in. All seems to be working now. As of this moment the dashboard says my device is completing its initial sync with the service which could take up to who knows how long....

Well now when I click refresh location the website says can't locate the phone blah blah. Strange also now I get help messages on the site in Italian, I think.

The Problem with htcsense.com is that it´s still a beta sometimes it works sometimes not, they also had issues with IE9 and Firefox 4, wich should be fixed.

For me it´s working flawless right now.

So be patient, as I said it´s just a Beta by now.

Sorry I missed the town hall meeting. I am a noob to Roms and phone moding, I did do a lot with the original xbox back when it was fun to mod. Ok a little off toppic.

One thing that noticed you never looked at is where are your noobs (me) comming in to your site? I have only been looking at roms for about a week. All of the searches that I did about roms and rooting my phone all led me to the "The Bible" and yes where is that located at. Most people will post there they find the information. You might look at moving that post to the general tab as this is going to be one of the first places that a person is going to look to first.

This will also be a place that a noob is going to post so dumb question for the 1,000,000th time. If you expect it, it will not be a bad thing.

And yes I did to a bad flash and spent about 5 hours looking for a way to fix what I did.

Thanks for your time and have a great day/night
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swehes:
Good point. I myself was thinking when I first started to look into flashing ROMs and such and found the bible in the Dev section. The Vibrant Bible has lots of information and should probably be in the General Section as it does draw people to the Dev section instead of General.

Maybe it should be in the Q&A forum as it has lots of both. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoodDraw:
One of the biggest problems with this forum seems to be that for a development forum, there is very little actual development going on. Obviously only a select group of people have the knowledge and desire to truly develop custom ROMs, but there's a role others can take too.

I've been involved in other development communities, outside of Android, and I can't recall a community as poisonous as this one. The amount of high level technical discussion is nill. As inexperienced as I am with Android, I can't remember the last post that sent me running to google to read more about something. There seems to be little to no give-and-take between developers, which is typically the most fun of any development group I've been a part of. The goal of working towards any common framework seems non-existant.

The supporters of certain ROMs resemble cults more than critical, helpful users. I can't count the amount of replies I've seen to legitimate questions or criticisms saying nothing more than, "Developer X puts in all this time, so you should just be thankful", or some iteration of that. While possibly true, that's the type of worthless hero worship that provides nothing in a community like this.

Even the individual developer forums are worthless. They're 75% "you're awesome" posts, with the other 25% being bug reports.

Obviously the popularity of XDA has made it a destination for simple support posts in addition to development discussion. I guess that's frustrating, but can be handled through moderation. I know on other forums, if I had nothing to do, I'd sit in the help section and answer posts for a couple hours. I'm sure we've all posted on other forums and received helped we're thankful for. Certainly the level of douchebagery that half the users here show isn't needed.

I don't know. Maybe all Android communities are like this. The fragmentation of the development, even on one divice, definitely doesn't help. But it's not the most enjoyable place to read I've ever found.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lskurys:
I am sorry that is not all that I needed to know. This was a post for an idea that was not brough up in the town hall. yes I did read the full town hall and no it was never said in the full thread. So before you give a link please make sure of the Question.

That is another reason that you get people pissed off. You have people say "this is all that I need to know" but they did not even look at the full question. This was not a question of what happened in the town hall. It was more like please think of this.

The Bilble thread is a great place for people that are new to star reading about what to do and what not to do. but it really does not have a thing to do about develement.

[Captivate General] tomstrummer:
I'm on Cognition 2.2b6 but since b7 came out I'm thinking about updating. When going from stock-> Cognition (via Clockwork) I had to re-install all apps and re-enter account info, homescreen settings, etc.

Going from CogYo b6 to b7 with Clockwork, will I lose everything again?? What's the best way to save settings & apps? For the record, all data on /sdcard remained untouched when I flashed Cognition the first time. But apps, accounts and homescreen is still a lot to re-configure after flashing.
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
Use Titanium Backup. You can back up all apps + their data.
[Captivate General] tomstrummer:
Now, last time I used Titanium Backup for my apps, it sideloaded all of the apps when I restored, and as a result they never got updates from the market. I ended up re-installing most of them through the market anyway.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
You could use titanium backup to back up your settings and system data but it will lead to more issues then you really want. I have restored all my apps with it and they still got updates. There is no way to back up system settings and say widget placement on the homescreen. One of the prices we pay for flashing custom roms:D
[Captivate General] papilliond:
There is an option with the paid version of launcher pro to back up your homescreens. The paid version of Titanium Backup allows you to restore your apps and app data in batch form rather than one at a time in the free version. I would not recomend restoring system data. It can cause problems and fc's. I know it's a pain to have to set everything up but it will save you more time in the long run if you have problems and have to reflash the ROM and set everything up again.

Do you know what rom manager is, do you know what odin is
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
backing up doesnt affect the ability to restore really. its more so that when you restore you can retrieve all the data you had. there may be a rare situation when recovery works but download does not. really before you flash anything power down the phone and try to 3 button into recovery. hold both volumes and the power button untill the att screen pops up. press the volumes first.

if that works pull the battery and try download. that's both volumes and plug in a usb cable. hold volumes till the yellow sign pops up.

if they both work then you can consider rooting and getting rom manager. with rom manager you can flash clockwork mod recovery and from there you can nand backup and restore. also get the development kit and try out adb. it will get you out of trouble in some situations. from adb you can adb reboot download which will force a reboot into download mode as long as the phone starts and doesn't go into a boot loop, even with a boot loop you may get a second to run the command if your timing is right. you can also adb reboot recovery and get into clockwork mod.

for apps only you can get titanium backup.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natemup:
for the second time in the last two months, I have begun not receiving texts or calls on my HTC Droid Eris running KaosFroyo v38. I hesitated and eventually decided against posting it there because I can't be sure it's anything in his ROM causing the issue (I may have been running Tazz's Froyo w/ Sense ROM the first time it happened).

I can send texts fine, and people are receiving them, but when they reply, I get absolutely nothing. I can make calls fine as well. When someone tries to call me, their phone says their call cannot be completed (this has only been tested with one phone).

This is becoming quite debilitating because I don't even know when people are trying to contact me, so any help would be appreciated.

NOTE: I have already tried activating the phone through Verizon. Hasn't helped.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] korben dallas:
I had a similar problem I wasn't receiving text messages. I ended up having to use the flashback21 rom. Everything is fine now.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natemup:
what does that ROM do?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
Any 2.1 sense based rom should fix your problem. You can make a nand of your current setup, flash any 2.1 rom you want boot it check text or phone call and then restore your nand backup for froyo. This should solve the problem but doesn't actually fix why it happened in the first place. How did you get them to start working again the first time? Most people that I've seen with this problem did this "reset" and I hadn't heard of the problem reoccurring but I wouldn't consider it a permanent fix. I personally have no idea what could be happening...not sure if Verizon is not seeing the phone as active since it doesn't have official software or what but I'm pretty sure it's something happening on their end and would have no idea of a way to prevent it unfortunately.

Edit: And you are correct it's not really a KaosFroyo issue as much as just a Froyo issue.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natemup:
I'll use this opportunity to ask this: how does the NAND backup work (I think I've seen it in the recovery menu, but never used it), and also: whats the best way to backup/restore my apps and settings?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
If you boot to recovery and you will see the nand option then you can choose nand backup....it will backup everything on the phone in it's current state including apps,settings, text messages and all. When you are ready to restore it you go back into recovery and back to nand and choose restore. You will only have one if this is your first time doing it but it will say BDS-XXXXXXXX where the x's are numbers that represent the date and time you made the backup(note the number of x's i put there is not the exact amount there will be). Anyway you choose that backup and it will ask if you want to restore it simalar to how it asks when you go to flash a rom. Its really a very simple process and very handy to have a backup. You can make as many backups as you can fit on your card. You can also copy the backups off the card to your pc if you want too.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natemup:
wow. no more "app backup" apps from the Market for me! thanks for being so quick and helpful! Luckily, attempting to make a call just a second ago caused the phone to crash and reboot, which apparently fixed the problem (I got a boatload of texts as soon as the phone rebooted). Weird.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
lol yeah rebooting the phone is always the first thing to try....nand does not replace backup apps though. It only backs them up for that current rom. When you restore a nand it restores the rom that was on the phone when you made the nand so you can't use it to back up info going from one rom to another or upgrading to a newer version of the rom because the nand will just reinstall the old rom.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You can use Titanium Backup, which is extremely popular. There's a free version on the market but I think the free version only does one app at a time. There's also My Backup Pro. Also here on xda you can find QtADB, which, while the phone is connected to the computer, you can use to backup and restore apps and their data. I actually like this way best so far. The backup files are still on your SD card, you just control the backup and restore from the computer.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
It sounds like it may be stuck in EVDO only. If your ROM has EPST maybe you can change it.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natemup:
with My Backup Pro (I'm going to download the root version), how do I wipe the phone without wiping the MBP app? do I just flash a new rom, re-download the app, and restore?

[HTC Excalibur] peterrflynn:
:mad:

Phone was acting weird so re flashed the ROM to earlier 3VO ROM.

Once rebooted, it thought the headphones were in. If I put the headphones in, I can hear calls etc, but if I then remove the headphones the icon doesn't change and its stuck.

I've tried connecting USB to Windows Mobile Device Centre to see if it would change it - it didn't.

In all the reboots - I managed to get it to go off once - but then calls went through to the speaker!!! :confused:

What do I do?

Is this a hardware fault?

Where would I get the stock ROM from?

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

I'm currently on 3VO.3.00.112509 as I went back to it as it seemed more stable than 3VO.3.50.033010 on my phone for some reason.

Thanks.

Have reflashed back to original official ROM. Oh - I'd forgotten how horrid the UI is... I miss Titanium Panel layouts...

Anyhow - the problem is still there so is clearly a hardware fault.
