I had to go "cable free"

I was having the same problem. I ended up buying bluetooth usb dongles on eBay and it worked perfectly.

I got mine here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...48984&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1933wt_1139

They were only $2.50 each and had free shipping (I bought 5)

Now I can easily send strait from windows explorer - has an option to "send to" after installing the bluetooth. I can even send to other computers the same way.

Slick.

P.S. They arrived in only 4 days! (I'm in Iowa)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highlanderfil:
It all started when I upgraded to the new official TMOUS ROM. I then wanted to install OzROM_5.20_24635 instead since it's TMOUS friendly. But to do so, I needed to install a 2.07-2.12 radio and was not able to do so - the process was stuck at 0%. Now as a result, my phone has been intermittently inoperable. I installed a SimTravel sim card into it (it's unlocked) - it recognized it once, then stopped picking it up completely and would reboot within minutes of powering on. Then I purchased a Lycamobile card and all seemed to be going well, but I just had it crash during a phone call with customer service (for some reason my sent SMSes never make it through, but I can receive them fine) and now it won't start. The symptoms are always the same - seven "buzzes" or vibrations, however you want to call them, and the phone is stuck at the first T-Mobile screen. I've tried hard resets and they have worked to a point - now they don't. How can I restore this thing?

Oh, just got it to reboot by waiting about a minute after taking the battery out... It went through the orange Windows 6.5 screen, then rebooted itself and buzzed seven times again...wtf???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
You need to flash a previous offical TMOUS ROM (to get away from the 3.14ROM). This will get your SPL back to 2.10 or 2.08 - instead of the present 3.03.

Then you can use HSPL3 to change the SPL to a 2.XX.HSPL. Follow the rest of the instructions from the OzROM thread.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highlanderfil:
Where can I get that ROM? Which version do I need?

Also, my problem now is that while I can get the phone to boot, it restarts during the setup process - I can't get to the home screen...how can I flash it in this situation?

Lovely new development. When it doesn't buzz, it shows the numbers (in pink, like the radio version (2.15.something, btw)) and hangs there. Ugh.

[Venue Pro General] ComCypher:
Has anyone tried roaming with the DVP internationally yet? I'm currently in the Mexico City area and after arriving was surprised to find that I am completely unable to connect to any network (for voice specifically, I'm not attempting to data roam). Where I usually see the signal strength bars I instead see a "no" symbol and when I go to settings->cellular the active network simply says "no network found". The interesting thing about this is that when I attempt to locate a network from the network selection dropdown box I do see a few listed (Mx Telcel GSM, movistar) but when I select them the active network still says "no network found".

I considered that maybe this was a T-Mobile issue so I put my SIM into a Galaxy S and sure enough, it works. This has me worried that maybe this is another undocumented DVP issue, and I don't really see anything else in the settings that I can try. I know the DVP hasn't been around very long and I might be one of the first to take this out of the US but if anyone gets a chance to confirm or deny these findings that would help.
[Venue Pro General] benjaminries:
It sounds like you are trying to use a non-Tmobile SIM card. The Venue Pro is locked to T-Mobile USA. See discussion at this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858504
[Venue Pro General] ComCypher:
No, it's definitely a T-Mobile SIM. And as I said, it has no problem connecting to a network when used in another phone.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] TeeJay3800:
For those of you that use Signal Strength Widget, do you experience significantly higher battery drain, or any higher battery drain at all? I've been using it for a while, and some days battery life seems worse than without the widget, and other days it seems roughly the same. Just looking for some input to decide if I should keep using it or not. :)
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] beanbean50:
I've been using it for about a month now and have not noticed any difference in the battery drain, why not install 'quick system info' from the market click on 'process' and it will show you what is using the cpu the most
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Hi,

I've been using Xscope for a couple of weeks, and really like it. Everything was working with it, including Flash, until today.

Today, when I try to access any webpages with Flash content, instead of the flash content, I get black boxes in those areas.

I've tried resetting Xscope to default, and also uninstalled it and re-installed it, but still no flash.

I also have tested with the default browser and Dolphin mini, and flash still works with those two other browsers, but I'd really like to have flash working with Xscope again.

Has anyone encountered this problem, or does any know how to fix it?

Thanks,

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] chadti99:
Experiencing the same issue :(
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
Hmmmmm... I just noticed the same thing.

Running stock, not rooted.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] gottifour:
Same here, on all my browsers actually. I reinstalled the .apk and it appears to be working on stock and xcsope now. I wonder why it stopped in the first place?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
Tried that. Still no good in xScope.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rcgabriel:
Reinstall Flash then you need to kill xscope in task manager or force close it in settings->applications to force it to restart.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
I just did this and still no good. I'll try again.

Question here: I am new at xScope, but isn't closing xScope from the "OFF" button on its toolbar enough to shut it down and then it will restart the next time you use it?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tristanwolf1134:
No, you will need to close it completely as turning it off will keep the browsers caches for files like "flash" open.

When all else fails... reboot.

Trist
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
Well... I force closed xScope. I cleared xScope's cache. I uninstalled Flash. I reinstalled Flash. Rebooted. Still no good. I get the black box in place of Flash. Once I did get a Flash at Staple's site but later I only got the black box there too.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rcgabriel:
Okay, I've never seen that nor heard anybody else report this issue. So no ideas here, sorry. Maybe clear all data for xScope, assuming you don't have anything too important in there? You can always back up the app data in Titanium Backup first, then try that to see if it helps...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Hi,

Can you all check what Xscope version you have? I didn't note the version I originally installed, but I'm wondering if an update was somehow applied. Current version on my Gtab shows 6.37. *I tried to contact the developer, but no response, plus their forum has only spam for last couple of weeks :(...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Also, I don't know if I'm imagining, but xscope seems a little slower loading pages since the same time...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
Mine shows v6.21. I downloaded it from the developer's site (Trial). It did not change since I installed it about a week or so ago.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Thanks for checking... Since you're on 6.21, and it was working before, it's probably not a problem with an update :(...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Fuzzy John:
It looks like I am getting somewhere:

Using xScope I went to the Staples site and tapped the "Load Flash Arrow". The Flash box turned black.

I tapped the Menu soft key (which removed the tab bar at the top and the command bar at the bottom). The Flash box displayed properly.

I tapped the Menu soft key again (which brought back the Tab bar at the top and the command bar at the bottom). The Flash box turned all black.

This behavior appears to be consistent on several sites with Flash.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Wow! You're right, and it does that even with the 'on' setting.

Why would this have changed from before?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Allenfx:
Same here. That trick at least got the news feeds working but only w xscope flash is not working at all with dolphin nor the stock browser where as it was a few days ago.

What has happened?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
For me, Flash is still working with dolphin mini, miren, and the default browser. The only browser that's a problem is xscope. Have you tried re-installing Flash?

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Allenfx:
I just went to their site. Says I have version 10.1.1.20.1 installed.

Do I need to reinstall?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
I don't know for sure since we don't know why it stopped working. Might not hurt to re-install the one linked on the Viewsonic favorites page.

[General Questions and Answers] plenty08:
Hey! First u may need to check your settings to see if your settings gps is enabled. Once you do that you shouldn't have a problem. Android devices generally come with Google maps and navigator. Look for the navigator icon on either you home screen or in your market place. The app should be a free app in the market place. But like I said, check your settings make sure gps is enabled and then look for the navigator icon its the blue arrow and says navigator underneath. Hit that, enter your destination and go. Which android device do you have?
[General Questions and Answers] alfaboxer:
what means which android i have?

the brand? or

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlightlyJack:
Hey,

First thread on here so sorry if I have made any obvious mistakes here.

I have won an HTC Desire HD (woop!), however I am not sure if I should open the box when it arrives, because I am not sure if it is worth keeping or selling it! So I am asking HTC Desire HD owners if they wouldn't mind giving me some advice?

Will the battery be okay? I have heard bad things, if I am using music constantly throughout my 6 hour schoolday, and an hour either side walking home, as well as texting and other occasional bits and pieces, will it until I return home? I know you can't say for definite, but just an idea.

Also, is it fragile? My current HTC is pretty good, has been dropped occasionally, and minus some scratches works fine. Does this break easily? I imagine I will drop it alot due to the size.

Also, the size, is it really awkward? I am a 16 year old, could I use it with gloves on in one hand? Would it matter if it got slightly wet, from like rain etc? And would it be awkward to get in and out of a pocket.

I am incredibly nervous about getting this! I apoligise for my exact questions, but if you wouldn't mind commenting on one or more of the questions from your own personal experience I would be very grateful! This is my first "proper" phone, my last was an HTC Hero.

Oh, and one last thing, if you don't think it would be a good phone, which similar Android phone should I sell it for? Thank you very much for your time! :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi,

Well done winning a Desire HD! (DHD)

My opinion is slightly biased as I love my DHD.

Yes, once the battery is conditioned and gone though a couple of charge/discharge cycles you will get a good days use out of it. I listen to the radio & music on mine for the vast majority of the working day (8 hours) and I have around 30-40% after this.

Not really, the body minus the covers is aluminium and hard wearing. The screen on the other hand is not Gorilla Glass and will crack/shatter if you are unlucky enough to drop it from height directly onto the screen. I personally don't use screen protectors, just the HTC leather case I got from Amazon.

It is quite big in your hand. It feels quite slim in your hand due to the contoured edges. I struggled to use it with one hand with gloves on, I've pretty much mastered the art of using it with my nose. As for the pocket, loose pockets will be fine. Close fitting jeans and you might have a problem. My advice, don't get it wet!

I myself had a HTC Hero prior to this, and its such a step up. If your into flashing custom ROM's and such its a great handset.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlightlyJack:
Thank you very much :) Do you know if getting a 1600 mAh battery will make much difference?

I do like flashing ROMs, and this phone sounds amazing, just not sure if it is the one to suit me.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Where have you found a 1600mAh battery? I would not trust anything you find on eBay.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
battery life is fine once it's been conditioned it will last eight hours of use as you envision without a doubt, size should be fine my nine year old son doesn't have an issue with it and it fits in the pocket fine. Durability is great it's basically aluminium with a couple of plastic bits but yeah it seems to wear well
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Its a great phone. The only complaint I can make is that Htc have made it such a difficulty to root. If the phone you get comes with 1.72 firmware too bad ... no root for you.

On the other hand 1.72 has much improved battery life.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlightlyJack:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
I'd get a Nexus S instead of a Galaxy S.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elemental_Fire:
I'd suggest...keep it if you REALLY want it. If you don't, sell it, and either get the NEXUS S or save the money for a more powerful/appropriate phone released in Q1 2011...what do you say? XD

Nexus S is a better option if you want to mod your phone.

Nebula rom so far is great, but I have no clue why the clock received a downgrade in usability.

I was mess'n around with getting the stock useful clock back, the one with the timer and stopwatch.

But I somehow messed it up, now I get a fc on the clock and it's not opening at all. I'm not really wanting to wipe and redo, so is it possible just to flash back in the stock clock app?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viperacr99:
I am running nebula 1.0.4 and the stock clock app has stopwatch and timer, so maybe flash that version.

Or download Stopwatch & Timer app from market.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amosher13:
just open the zip file of the ROM with the clock you want, pull the apk out of /system/app and dump into /system/app on your phone with root explorer and reboot. voila
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] travo:
Got the stock clock back

Found this post, downloaded the stock clock.

ClockPackage.apk

Used root explorer to copy the ClockPackage.apk back into system/app directory.

Did a reboot, looked in app drawer and clicked on the white clock icon to make sure it was working.

Using Titanium backup I uninstalled the blue icon clock that gets installed with Nebula ROM - 1.0.5.

After that did a reboot just for kicks to see if the stock clock still worked, and it did.

I use beautiful widgets home weather widget, I had a problem with that, when I clicked on the clock it tried opening the nebula installed clock, so I uninstalled beautiful widgets, then put it right back.

Now all is good again.
[Epic 4G General] zombiematt:
so heres the deal, ive read the forum with all the instructions how to downgrade from dk28 back to di18. i even did it on my epic a month ago because i missed my gps. on my phone it worked the first try. no problems whatsoever. so now im trying to do the same with my girlfriends phone and its refusing to work. it either stops at initializing or geting pit. ive been at this for an hour now. any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Dont use the pit file. You don't need it for flashing tar files. Just put the tar file in PDA and make sure only reboot is checked and hit start.
[Epic 4G General] johnyardavid:
Have you tried the three different versions of odin out there? 1.0 1.3 and 1.6 somethin? 1.6 has the highest success rate for me. Also you don't need the pit but it shouldn't affect it's ability to complete if you do use it. Also if you're trying to odin back to di18 don't use the di18 extended, it's very finnicky. Just try the pure stock di18 files from noobnl's post in dev section.
[Epic 4G General] 1greek4u:
When I use ODIN with my phone I need to make sure the PDA file doesn't have the MD5 tag at the end of the zip file. So naturally when I went to flash my gf's Samsung Mesmerize I took the tag off her tar file also. Made Odin crash repeatedly across different versions. When I finally realized I needed MD5 at the end of the file ODIN flashed the phone on the first try.

Lesson of the story is that ODIN is finnicky. Try different things like: Different USB ports, restarting computer before using it, and playing with different PIT files (don't quote me on the PIT thing, I've used different ones with no ill effects). Try changing the zip file to just .zip or .zip.md5 just to make sure it isn't something simple like that.
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Pit is specific to build. It tells the phone where to flash what... Following this advice *could* have very detrimental effects .....

This is all on Amon-RA Recovery v.1.8.0. I am fully rooted with nand unlocked, running Ultimate Droid 2.5.0 ROM.

My SD card is an Kingston 16GB Class 10 card. I flashed the Apps2SD by Darktremor after I partitioned my SD card as follows: swap-size: 32MB, Ext2-size: 512MB, FAT32-size: Remainder.

After I partitioned the card, I go down and select "SD: ext2 to ext3" and confirm the command. Everything goes thru fine and it says "Ext upgrade complete!", now this is where I don't know how to upgrade from ext3 to ext4, the command still shows "SD:ext2 to ext3".

I tried rebooting the device to see if that changes it in recovery, but it still says the same thing. Then, I reboot my EVO like normal, go into Terminal Emulator, type in SU blah blah blah, and then type in "/system/bin/a2sd check" to check if everything is OK. Everything shows as working properly and there are no problems. EXCEPT, "Partition Type: EXT2" (even thought I upgraded it thru Amon-RA recovery), and then it says "Support EXT2? YES", "Support EXT3? YES", "Support EXT4? YES".

So if someone could help me out here and tell me what I am doing wrong, I want to upgrade to EXT3 OR EXT4, problem is I can't even get to EXT3, and I would like to take full advantage of a Class 10 SD card if I have it. Any help, suggestions, any and everything is welcome. Thank you in advance.
