[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duppsko:
I'm referring to this thread where some people reported that the DHD OTA released early in november fixed all their exchange 2010 issues. Haven't been reding the whole thread, so I don't know if the problem persisted..

Sorry that I didn't specify this, I just removed the account from the device (thus deleting all existing contacts, e-mails etc.) and then readded the account. As you say, just deleting the partnership from the exchange server (in OWA) doesn't work, I've tried that before this OTA was released with no luck... I'm pretty sure that you HAVE to delete the account on your device to make this work, however, it doesn't hurt to delete both account on the device AND partnership in OWA...

Edit: My god, it is now possible to use "search server" from within the mail client (select folder, and press the search "hw-key", and then select search server)... Best christmas present ever! :o

I've just applied the OTA update on my Desire Z as I haven't rooted the phone to begin with.

As previously stated, the update reports that the OS version is now Android 2.2.1

The Radio Baseband version on my phone is: 12.28e.60.140fU _26.04.02.17_M2

The Build number is: 1.72.405.2 CL296256 release-keys

Why?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodolgo:
Well, looks like they downgraded the ActiveSync client to 12.2.1 which seems to work a bit better, ie exchange policies are now applied. There are still sync errors particularly on the Calendar. I did delete then recreate the partnership in between, to no avail... yet!

Has the battery worsened? Just out of curiosity, what are you running for widgets? and do you have HTC hub update selected to "push". Trying to sort out some battery issues myself. I think the news widget may be the culprit but not sure.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodolgo:
On my end, calendar sync does NOT work, tried removing the owa partnership and deleting the account on my DZ. Email is OK, contacts too.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zappoo:
So i installed this OTA not realising i'd loose root. Now the only reason i use root was to underclock when screen off, to save battery.

However - i haven't had root for 2 days now - so no SetCPU - and my battery seems BETTER. After 15 hours of light use, my level is still at 55% battery. usually it would be around 30% now.

A few phone calls, a few SMS messages, a few apps etc.

So, i am wondering 2 things:

1) Does root/SetCPU somehow actually worsen battery performance (doubtful)

2) Has this OTA update increased battery life....

Either way, i don't think i need root anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
My phone has now picked up the fact a ROM update is available. I want to keep root, so I'll be ignoring this update for now.

Does anyone know if you can clear the notification without accepting it ? I have now gone and turned off the item in Menu->Settings->About Phone->System Software Updates , so hopefully it won't check any more, and if I can clear this it won't ask me again I guess ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opensourcefan:
Would be nice to find an official change list so we can all see if it's worth upgrading and loosing root etc.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pafuin:
not true

I updated, I am still root everything works fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gloscherrybomb:
If you click the notification and then accept, but cancel before the download, it clears the notification.

I'm running an older version of Virtuous and haven't noticed the OTA on my G2, however I have noticed my Market randomly updated itself to the new one.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sephstyler:
I've had the same finding as you, DZ with the new OTA update, not rooted.

Yesterday had 14 hours on, including 2 hrs 30 minutes of screen on, got home and still had 55% battery remaining, where usually I would be at 30% if not a bit less

still had several push emails and whatsapp conversations thru the day, a medium use day for me.

Hopefully this isnt a figment of my imagination
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Untouchab1e:
Applied the update and now Wifi won't work, just says "Error". Tried a hard reset but no go. Anyone have any good ideas? I've lost root so I seem to be pretty much screwed!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovelldr:
Exactly the same predicament here. Waiting patiently hoping someone else knows of a result to get it back working...

Not such a hassle looking root, more of a hassle is no WiFi! Be nice to get root back, but if anyone else can help sort WiFi would be great :-)

CWmod Recovery says that's an error about files signatures!

So I switched off signature check in CWmod, but on reboot it's toggle ON!

any idea?? or update.zip??

Tnx
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Yeah the Market update is rolled out for all Android owners. However this update is for the Desire Z ROMs, T-Mobile haven't rolled it out themselves for the G2 ROM. Really the thread title should be amended to avoid confusion.

However, if you are running a custom ROM then you won't get any OTA updates.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Really ? :confused:

I think something went wrong with your update and it didn't apply, check Menu->Settings->About Phone to check what ROM version you are running.

If you do any stock ROM flash you will lose root. So if you are still rooted after the update, it sounds like it didn't update at all.

Also it's been verified that once you have updated, the current rooting tools won't operate (but that's being worked on).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
You can always flash back the stock recovery if it won't let you update with Clockwork.

Or you can flash the entire ROM if you want via the RUU in this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=879384

That's a complete ROM flash though, not just an update.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Yay, thanks ! :D

That's just what I was hoping for, but wanted to check just in case it forced it on me as soon as I clicked on the notification lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duppsko:
+1... WiFi is gone, what have we done?! :o Anyone found a solution to this yet?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Untouchab1e:
I just did!

Download the full update manually and install it!

Download link.

Connect your phone with USB and run the downloaded setup file and follow the ROM update utility instructions and you will be good to go! WiFi back up and working!

Good luck!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duppsko:
Great! Will updating this way erase any information from the phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keinengel:
Yes, it will. No way around it, sorry.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Untouchab1e:
Yes, your phone will be wiped. A very small price to pay though.

Will have to wait until root is achieved then, as I need all the data set up from my apps etc, which can only be backed up from root afaik... Hopefully won't be long until root :)

I am in the U.S. and want this new update. i don't know if the ota was released out here, but I haven't gotten any notifications.

If I do this will I have the new ota or will this mess up my phone since i don't have root or anything?

thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
This OTA is specific to the Desire Z (Sense) ROMs. You won't get it if you have a T-Mobile G2, you'll need to wait for the next OTA that they roll out.

Pls help me

Dear All,

Can somebody please upload the .zip file for 1.72.405.2. I guess it is the only way that i can restore my phone. This is my story:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
The RUU is already up at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=879384

You can extract the ROM.zip from that. Run the RUU but leave it at the first window, don't press anything there. Then open up another window on your PC, find the temp files that it has extracted from there (look for recently-modified folders in your temp area) and the ROM.zip will be in there.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rantanplan1980:
After installing (and regretting) this update, is it still possible to downgrade to the previous version, by running the executible that is delivered on the disc that came with my phone? I guess this is the recovery application...

Or is a downgrade entirely impossible?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
If you had full radio S-OFF via gfree before the update, then you can simply run the RUU or flash a ROM image from an older version.

If you didn't have radio S-OFF though, you are stuck, downgrade is impossible until at least temp root is achieved.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AspenMan:
I have a rooted DX with the Flash player hack and am finally able to watch Hulu. The problem I'm having is that even though I have my user agent set to desktop somehow Hulu loads a cookie onto my device that say it's an android. It seems to do this every time I close my browser after visiting Hulu and I need to clear my cookies to get it to work again when I go back.

My question is: Is there a way to deny cookies from a specific websites without turning off cookies entirely? In this case Hulu. It's not a huge deal but it would be more convenient for sure...

Any help is GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!!!

Can you get into "fastboot" mode?

Hold the Camera Button and push the power button... DO NOT let go of the camera button during this process... In less than 30 seconds, if it's not perma-bricked, it should take you into the fastboot mode.

Lemme know
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasonGL:
Ahh, tried it. Still nothing. So its perma bricked?

thanks for the response btw
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
No fastboot after holding camer+power means it's bricked, JTAG or replacing the logic board is the only way to go.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidcues:
what did you do to the phone to cause this? did you flash any radios? in order to resolve a problem we need to know a lot more than this.

not to you in general just thinking aloud -- It pisses me off to no end that the word "brick" is so horribly used -- its like pregnancy... you cannot be a "little" or "semi" or "perma-semi-little" bricked. Either you are or you arent!

you need to take the little man aside and chain him to a chair with hot bright lights in his face and threaten to cut off his xbox or whatever and make him remember exactly what he did. Find his downloads, find out what instructions he was following,

[Vibrant General] brnbock:
I found this method by accident trying to play Avatar on my tv through the video cable. It might not work for everyone and it might not work with all drm protected video. I am not responsible for what happens to your device :)

1 Plug the video cable into your phone and tv

2 Activate TV out on the phone

(menu, settings, display, TV out)

3 Open your video player

4 Choose a drm protected video and play it

(you will see a warning on the tv: TV0out not supported while application running. Phone display only)

5 Unplug the video cable from the phone, the movie will pause

6 Unpause the movie let it play for a couple of seconds

7 Plug the video cable back in the Vibrant and enjoy :D
[Vibrant General] iwillkillyou:
Nice find, will try it out
[Vibrant General] burntrat:
Didn't work for me. Just get the same text after plugging the cable back in.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
same here, but im glad it worked for the OP!

nice find! does it work everytime?
[Vibrant General] donalgodon:
I didn't know that you couldn't play this file on any other source. That kinda' sucks. I just bought my Vibrant after selling my T-Mobile HD2, and I was looking forward to watching this via my home theater.

The funny thing is that the previous T-Mobile phone included sponsored versions of Transformers 1 and 2, both of which had no DRM on them. I played them via my PC without any problem.

How does this DRM impact custom ROMs?k Will I not be able to play the movie on a custom ROM?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Custom Rom's won't do anything, except this.

lets say you keep your Avatar movie, on the stock you HAVE a avatar ICON app to press and play, on custom roms, the icon app can be replaced with moving things to the system/app or just play it from gallery or video player.

Nothing more than that.

DRM uses other apps too, so if you were to delete that, other core processes wouldn't work, so do what most people do. Freeze the DRM services using Paid version of titanium backup.
[Vibrant General] brnbock:
Works everytime for me, it works with movies from media hub also. I don't know if it matters or not but I am on Nero V3. Try the method a couple of times.
[Vibrant General] brnbock:
Yes, the custom roms contain the software to view drm protected media.
[Vibrant General] dubbz106:
On jk6, works for me. Had to unplug/pluggin a few times to get it to work. Nice find!
[Vibrant General] Binary100100:
Great find! How about we try to find a real fix though! ;)
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
a real fix: download the movie in HD quality. Play it with anything you want, with any rom you want.
[Vibrant General] Binary100100:
Well I'm actually referring to the fact that it appears on a lot of apps. Such as T-MobileTV, Avatar, anything that uses the camera, etc. I would actually like to use Tango with it so that I can flip my phone around (camera facing me) and use Video call with the video input in my truck. That would be useful.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Do you know if your phone has an AMOLED or SLCD screen?

Many phones with Hboot 0.83 and 0.92 are SLCD. Do you have the original box? if so, take a look on the back, and see if it mentions AMOLED for the Display under the specifications.

Tip: You will know if your phone is SLCD if it displays a black background in low light, at certain angles, and it will have a slight grey sheen to the screen. On an AMOLED screen it will remain the same black. If you purchased your phone before July 2010, then it will be AMOLED.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassan_desire:
on the back of the box it says 3.7 inches amoled screen. is it a software issue or hardware?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
it;s ok. if it is unbranded this http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe is the last 2.2 froyo official.

download it be aware that it is fully downloaded. put your phone in fastboot by turning it off and then press back button+power on.

After it finishes let it reboot(about 5 minutes) after that you can use unrevoked to obtain root and flash a custom recovery (i suggest AmonRa's). then if you want you can flash custom roms.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadwasp:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dawo5010:
If the phone won't boot, download the ruu, extract zip from ruu, rename to PB99IMG.zip and then put on SD card. Boot into recovery and it should do its thing. Works regardless of s off or s on ( s off or on doesn't matter at all in ruus. Not related whatsoever.)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
This is a step-by-step guide for Newbies..

One tiny bit of advice..

Though you bought the phone from a store, it is likely that it might be branded to HTC. Boot up your phone by holding the back key+Power button. You should do a "fastboot oem gencheckpt" command from the folder where fastboot.exe is installed. This will show your CID number, which can confirm whether branded or not. If you're absolutely sure that it's unbranded, proceed with the WWE RUU based Pb99img.zip
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadwasp:
the problem is that on white menu there is no fastboot or boot section the only written thing is ruu
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Do you have your original RUU file? Are you branded (if branded, you will need a Gold Card to proceed with the method suggested below) or unbranded?

You could try extracting the rom.zip from the RUU, and copy it to your Desktop, then rename the rom.zip to PB99IMG.zip. After renaming it, you mount your SD card and place it to the root of your SD card using a card reader or another phone that accepts micro sd cards, unmount your sd card and then turn off your phone. Finally, enter bootloader and let the phone run the PB99IMG file.

Also try getting into Fastboot by holding the back button whilst turning on the phone, it should work for you then.

[G Tablet General] festivus:
In light of the fact that you are monitoring this forum, I have a question for you. You can see the incredible progress that the developers have achieved thus far with the various ROMs. While I have not tested all of them, it would appear that most of the custom ROMs run much faster, making better use of the hardware than the stock configuration, even with the recent updates. What I want to know is for the owner who chooses to keep his tablet stock, will Viewsonic release an update down the road that matches or exceeds the quality of the custom ROMs? If so, when?

Most of the custom ROMs have some operational glitches, and it seems to me as the manufacturer Viewsonic is really the one in the best position to put forth optimized software.

I see where Viewsonic says that the kernel will be released soon, but that does not absolve Viewsonic from it's obligation to turn out the best possible software for it's hardware, right?

I look forward to your response! Thanks again for participating here on the forum.
