I used it for quite a while, but now that CM6.1.1 has the extra swipe bars for phone and messaging on its lock screen I have uninstalled it.

I suggested to the GOTO developers that they add the ability to have "stackable" go to swipes with user customizable shortcuts but they said they probably wouldn't be doing any such.

Decent app and nice and clean. Overall I definitely liked it.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] CarneDeluxe:
Confused about flashing SPLs. Never flashed one before. The radio I have installed is the myTouch-radio-2_22_23_02 and I want to flash the Danger SPL but are they compatible. Moreover, I've see and heard different tutorials about the subject. Some say when flashing a new spl wipe/flash radio first, then wipe/flash radio, then partition sd card, finally flash rom. Some say just wipe/flash the new spl w/out then rom. Which one is it? I already have the radio installed that I want to use, so do I have to flash it again to flash a new spl?

Phone: MT3G (32B)

Radio: 2_22_23_02

SPL: 1.33.0006

ROM: Gingerfly 1.7 D/S ADS

Android: 2.2.1
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] keinengel:
The new/old radio and SPL talk is for the 32A - the Magic sold in Canada, Brazil and some parts of Europe. You shouldn't worry about that.

You can flash the SPL and you're done.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] yeahman45:
ok first i am a total newbie.. planning to buy my first android phone and i am interested with the unlocked milestone as it seems to be the cheapest flash 10.1(i am very interested in flash too) enabled android phone out there.. i read the bootloader is locked... which means you cannot load custom roms on it..

i also read that using 2nd boot or kexec, u can load custom roms on it... my question is with these 2 methods, can u load a full custom rom(e.g. android 2.3) on milestone or is it still very limited and u must wait for actual official android 2.3??

i always want a gadget that u can fully customize...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DummyPLUG:
IN SHORT, STAY AWAY FROM MOTO, AND NO OFFICAL 2.2 ROM MEANS NO FLASH SUPPORT OFFICALLY. TAKE A LOOK AT MOTO EURO FACEBOOK.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DummyPLUG:
Moto locked up te bootoader, that means you are not allow to use unoffical kernel, and no full custom rom
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ruffian:
the 2.2 update was delayed again until q1 2011. im seriously thinking of returning it for a refund.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] yeahman45:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=815595

so this custom rom is a fake froyo? No flash 10.1?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DummyPLUG:
You can't say that is a fake froyo, as it is a real froyo with Flash support, but all froyo mod are using the leak 2.2 beta kernel, which still had many bugs. and we can't use a custom kernel as MOTO had locked the bootloader, so back to the how hackable question, Milestone is not very hackable, because we can't use custom kernel and that means many things can't do.

Is it possible to port a hero rom to our tattoo?

Tbo-art
[Click General] jackmanc56:
It is probobly possible, as the tattoo and the hero are basically the same phone, but i dont know how it would be done :/ ... I would like to know how to put a generic rom on to my tattoo :D
[Click General] tbo-art:
I also don't know how to do that. I wish I knew it.
[Click General] sanderd17:
There is no point in porting a hero ROM. It wouldn't help making the ROMs.

To install it, it is quite simple.

Go to the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=716282

THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SIMLOCK. I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SIMLOCKED PHONES.

download the tools from point 1.3 and the new SU from the bottom of the post.

run adb (explained in 1.1) and execute the commands from 1.5.

execute the commands from 2.3. Standard, you got the Amon Ra recovery in the tools you've downloaded. If you need another one (like clockworkmod, needed for the experimental gingerbread rom, you can just replace it)

Then your tattoo is rooted and you can flash a ROM to it. Check this video about how to do it. http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/30/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-the-htc-tattoo/

Note that, depending on your machine, you need to use the volume buttons to go up/down and the green phone to select (as shown in the video) or you need to use the arrows to go up/down and the dpad to select (as I had to do with my phone).

hope it helped.

I currently use Kalim's ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=872668 . It is very stable and the camera is under way. I think he will get the camera fixed within about 2 weeks or a month.

To update a ROM, you don't have to do the wipe step from the video.

Hi all hope everyone has had good xmas i recently got my HDH just before xmas on contract from Orange uk ive got it unlocked but would really love to get rid of the huge amount of bloatware the poor thing came with. I would like to return to a stock HTC rom and im currently using RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed and everytime i run it i constantly get this message ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR i have used the orginal 8gb which came with the phone and a 2gb sd to create my goldcard. Ive created the gold card multiple time but still ge the customer id error message ive used the goldcardtool and also created the goldcard the manual way by editing with a hexeditor and still the same result. Please can any point me in the right direction the current rom on the phone is 1.40.61.2 and the Hboot is 0.85.0007.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi,

Hope you had a great xmas also. Your DHD will need to have SuperCID, Your DHD is checking the CID (Customer ID) of the Stock HTC Update and it doesn't match the CID provided by Orange UK.

You can follow This Guide and just follow the steps.

Once your CID is unlocked you can flash anything regardless.

Hope this helps.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr5nake:
Hi,

Thankyou for your quick response it worked a treat no more orange bloatware what a relief. I presume i do not need to keep the goldcard in the system and i can format my 8gb sd back to normal card?. Also the ruu i listed above is the latest one i presume from htc if you know by any chance, anyway thankyou again its so nice shame on you orange.

Regards
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
No, the ROM you listed is not the latest. If you flash the latest HTC ROM you will lose Root, ENG HBOOT, S-OFF.

you can goto Settings - about phone - system updates and install the latest update.

Hey everyone, I'm considering coming from a samsung Vibrant to this, because I like the screen size, camera flash, and Android seems to be stable (super ram froyo) but I have a couple of questions

Will I be able to restore my text, and call logs via mybackuppro, and retrieve my contacts via the google account? I was also wondering if it's worth coming from a vibrant to an hd2? Just need some help, or advice.

Also could I restore some apps on the hd2 from the vibrant using Titanium backup?

-Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.

Thanks everyone who helps!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Gary.M:
I've used both and prefer the hd2 but you might need to experiment with the builds.

There are apps to back up your sms and google contacts will automatically transfer with your account.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hookguy:
To backup apps just use titanium backup and select batch and then all user apps.

To backup SMS download SMS backup and restore from the market.

If you've got a Google account, try logging into your gmail account from a computer then go to people and check I'd your contacts are saved. if they are then they will auto sync with any other phone you use.

Hope this helped.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cashyftw:
Okay I was just making sure, I always use T-backup for apps, and mybackup pro for sms.

Is everything the same such as putting things in folders, and the phone being able to read it? And another big factor is GPS, does that work?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
Gps works, but takes a little bit longer to get a lock sometimes (still quite usable)

And T-Mobile backup works too, just like on any Android phone. As far as backin up n restoring with Titanium, just batch backup apps n data, then transfer the Titanium Backup folder from your current sd card to your HD2's sd card, get Titanium from market, n batch restore

I highly recommend the HD2, its like 2 yrs old, n still just about the baddest phone on the block

Ive been reading that there has been an update for the dhd, how do i get this update?

My dhd was an upgrade on orangeUK (branded), is it for unbranded only or do i have to wait or something?

Ive tried the software update in settings but it says im upto date already and ive had no notifications.

regards Jody
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi and welcome,

If you check your Android version, Settings > About > Android Version - 2.2 or 2.2.1

Your DHD may have come preloaded with the update, I thought that the OTA was for every DHD, I could be wrong!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodyd:
it says

Android version: 2.2

software version: 1.40.61.2
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
You don't have the update. If you manually change the date on your DHD to a month or so ahead, then check for updates.

This worked for me on my old HTC Hero when T-Mobile were staggering updates to prevent network overload.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StunnerX:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
I would describe myself as the average person, and I got it to work. It can get technical at times, but as long as you follow the guides to the letter you'd be fine.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodyd:
Thanks, I'll search for a debranding tutorial I think, any recommendations/advise/cautionary notes?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Give me a minute and I'll pull up some guides.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodyd:
thankyou your very kind
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
The process to debrand your DHD is quite lengthy but worth it.

If you install the latest Stock HTC RUU then everything we do here, except Radio S-OFF, will be undone and revert to stock.

1). Root your DHD using Visionary+ --> Found Here

- You have to enable non-Market apps. Settings > Applications > Tick "Unknown Sources"

- Copy Visionary+ to your SD Card and install using a File Manager. I use Linda. Its on the Market & free.

- Using Visionary, Click TempRoot, then Attempt PermRoot.

2). Switch off DHD security (S-OFF)

- Follow This Guide to the letter. Ensure HTC Sync is installed, as you need the correct drivers.

- You performed the first two steps already.

3). Switch off Radio Security, SuperCID, & SIM Unlock.

- Follow This Guide, also to the letter.

- SuperCID allows you to flash Unbranded HTC ROM's to Branded DHD's.

- Radio Security (Radio S-OFF), allows you to flash Radio files seperately.

If you want to backup SMS' & Calls logs get SMS Backup + from the Market, its free and backs up to your GMail.

Now your DHD should be branded still but fully unlocked, to install the latest stock & unbranded HTC update you will need to download This Official HTC RUU,(RUU = Rom Update Utility). The first post has the file.

Once downloaded, connect your DHD to your computer, ensure HTC Sync recognises your DHD. And double click the downloaded file, following all the prompts.

Your DHD will reboot, and do it's thing. Once complete your DHD will be bang upto date. Unbranded & Unlocked. All your previous settings, SMS', call logs & apps will be gone. If you have purchased any apps, they will still be able to be downloaded at no extra cost.

Everything you performed here will be undone, except step 3. But why would you want to SIM Lock your DHD again, or lock the CID back to a network?

Hi

im picking up a unlocked Vodafone DHD tomorrow and i plan on debranding it to remove all the vodafone stuff

just reading over andyharney post and im a little confused

both step 2 & 3 point to the same guide

is step 3 surposed to be pointing to THIS guide?????

and when i debrand the phone i intend on keeping the rooted phone so when i choose a new RUU should i just not choose the most recent one ??

sorry if that doesn't make sense im a little new to the DHD

cheers
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi, yes they are supposed to point to the same guide. I'd described each step separately so I posted the link twice.

If you wish to keep root then you can either flash an earlier unbranded RUU, or flash a Sense based custom ROM. I'm using Android Revolution HD at the moment. Its excellent.

I have this problem, I dont have the 1.7... update people are talking about. My DHD is unbranded and on Orange
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Framedtrash:
but with the One click S-OFF isnt it just a 1 button app

there is no option there to switch off SuperCID, & SIM Unlock.

or do i root with Visionary then use the One click S-OFF app

then just repeat the process again ???

sorry for the dumb questions
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Framedtrash:
could i just use this THIS app instead as it does radio s-off super-CID and simunlock in one click

then just flash a unbranded RUU

i pickup my phone 2night cant wait :)

If your device is branded you may also need to create a gold card to get it to accept unbranded firmware.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Framedtrash:
was chatting with jkoljo the dev of the tool HERE

and he said you can just follow the steps there and your ready to go

then you just need to choose a debranded RUU and flash it

then just follow the s-on steps if you ever need to return the phone for warranty purposes

from my understanding the super-CIDD option in the software allows you to flash any firmware you want

[7 Mozart General] forsti82:
hi mozart owners!

i got my device almost a week now and i am very satisfied so far.

the one (hardware related) thing i dislike is the power button. it seems to be a little loose. it works without problem, but it makes a little rattling noise. i bought the mozart because of its fine alloy handling. i had enough creaking and rattling with my touch hd! the other buttons like volume or camera are fine.

does any one of you also experience this rattling noise or is this a failure of my very device. in this case i will try to have it exchanged.

the noise happens sometimes when laying the device down or grapping it quickly. i can always reproduce it when sliding over the power button gently from one device edge to the other or when simply tapping on the device somewhere in the top area (e.g. back side near the camera).

regards,

forsti

edit:

just wanted to update this thread. after little more over 2 weeks full usage not only the power button kept stressing me (got worse), but after I had to switch SIM card twice the battery cover now is also messed up. so any time I grab the phone it makes a very nastic plastic noise (blackstone users will know what I am talking about) in addition to the loose button. :mad:

to make that clear: I always handled the phone with full care so I refuse that this is anything about false treatment. my mozart is now on its way back to the vendor and I really hope they change it.

but I really wonder that no other user here has any of these issues!?
[7 Mozart General] knave:
No such issue with mine. I think you better get it exchanged.
[7 Mozart General] drsqueggy:
Mine rattles a little no big problem though.
[7 Mozart General] olegs77:
mine works smooth nothing like that happens so far

but all this zune thing makes me crazy:eek:
[7 Mozart General] forsti82:
to me it is also not a "big" problem but it simply sucks. every time i switch my device on or off i hear this cheap plastic rattle-sound.

also the battery cover sound is simply not acceptable for a HTC device. I love HTC but I really wished the quality was further improved and will sometime in the future by _really_ on par with the "fruity" products.

root explorer is easy to use.

its just like using the stock files, but you can see other things that require root.

if your installing a app, and it won't let you install by just clicking it, then you go to the file, menu, copy/move, then go to system/app/ then paste/move it there, and then get out of that app, and in your app drawer, the app should be installed.

- Rebooting

- Verifying that "allow non-market apps" is checked

Hi everyone. After many tries over a couple of weeks, I finally flashed cyanogen onto my Desire HD. Late christmas night none the less.

Instantly I've seen an issue though. It, or at least something, is consuming a lot more of the battery than it should. I have only installed one new lock screen and swype. I also understand it is a knightly build of cyanogen, so im hoping its something that can be fixed after a stable version is released.

To run a quick test, I unplugged last night for it to run without me using it and after 7 hours, it was down to 45%. When running the original sense rom it would consume much much less.

Is there something I can do in the mean time, as I am enjoying using cyanogen so far. A nice new kernel or a different rom anyone can recommend?

Thanks for the help.
