[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmwguy:
I searched the forums but only saw similar issues with different phones, not the EVO.

I have a rooted evo (unrevoked non permanent) running 3.29 build. I have not updated with the latest 3.70 build due to fear of losing root. Starting yesterday I am having trouble getting a mobile network connection with 3g. When this happens if I go to wireless and network settings next to mobile network it says "turning on" and it kind of just hangs there. I can sometimes get a connection but usually it cuts back out within 30 seconds. I can however maintain a connection over wireless or 4g. I'm wondering if this is a hardware issue or if it might be related to not accepting the latest update. I have tried multiple battery pulls and reboots and this has not helped.I also tried removing the last few apps I had installed to see if they were possibly interfering somehow and that didn't help either. Does anyone have any ideas? I guess my last step would be to do a factory reset and then if that doesn't work I will have to unroot the phone and take it in for service. I really don't want to do that.

Screenshots with phone info avail at http://www.dtbmw.com/evoscreens

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Thank you.

Bump.

Having the same issue, started two days ago. Mobile network goes to "turning on", it finds 3G, it loses 3G, goes to "turning on", finds 3G, loses 3G...ad infinitum. It's absolutely KILLING my battery life. I made one phone call today and played 10 minutes of Angry Birds, and my battery was dead at 2:00 pm (from full charge this morning, unplugged at 8:00 am).

I have been trying to get any external keyboard to work on my Gtab since I got it for Christmas(wife wrapped it and made me wait...). I haven't had time to try the other ROMs yet, so I'm still on the stock 3389 update.

I couldn't get any of my USB or Bluetooth keyboards to work. I searched the forums and saw that someone suggested to boot with the USB device plugged in. So, I figured I would try this. Turns out all I needed to do was plug the keyboard in while the Gtab was sleeping, and then wake it up. The caps lock light blinked, so I knew it had just gotten power, and I had full keyboard access! The keyboard that I am using is an old Bondi Blue iMac keyboard. The arrow keys navigated around the Classic Home screen with no issues, so I started pressing keys to see what worked. So far, the Home key takes me to Classic Home and the Left Command/Apple Key brings up the menu. The right Command/Apple key doesn't do anything. My personal favorite is when I pressed the keyboard's Power Key. It actually puts the Gtab to sleep, and will wake it up again when I press a second time! (though I just discovered that any key will wake it back up...)

I have newer Mac keyboards in my basement, so I plan to test them out aswell, but I have to say the Power Key putting the Gtab to sleep just made my day! :)

-----------------

F1 - brings up menu

F3 - crashes whatever app your in

F4 - does the same as pressing the power key(sleep/wakes up)

ESC - same as back button

Typing in the Classic Home screen goes straight to search

in Classic Home the space bar brings up some wierd window with a bunch of secondary characters, like ... Registered trademark Copyright _under+ [] {} \ |

If you let it sleep too long it, when you press a key the Gtab doesn't want to wake up too easily. Takes some patience and pressing the power key on the side of the Gtab.

So im still pretty new around these parts and I was wondering which version of cyanogen mod I should use. It's kind of confusing because I read on twitter that his team just achieved getting the camera to work on aosp for 0004. Can someone slap me a link or some knowledge on which version I should run of cm mod. I am aware that there's no hdmi and 4g. Thanks in advance.

[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Hi guys,

Since I cant forgo from Sense UI and its useful, functional, rich and nice widgets I do not use any home replacements exist in the market. The only advantage of using so called launcher apps is, imo, customizable app drawers. Is there a separate app acts as app-drawer replacement only?

Hv seen VLauncher today, installed and tested; its iphone styled appdrawer is pretty nice, but not more than that.

I desperately would like to have a such replacement for app-drawer (to be used/started by tapping default onscreen apps button in Sense, like home button behaviour change when you use a home launcher, user may select default action when prompted)

Maybe i should have put this thread in development section, but dunno, if required pls feel free to move this to there.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Isn't that a good idea?

I can pay for a such app with pleasure.
[Desire General] AndroHero:
its not that easy, the app draw is part of rosie.apk, (and other elements are held by the framework-res.apk, i think.) even if someone did develop and "app draw" app, it prob wouldnt work with sence, as rosie would always look for the default app draw.

Hi,

is there any chance to reduce the haptic feedback for the desire HD Builds? Its very annoying typing with the very strong feedback but i liked the small "bzzt" on win mob ;-) so i do not want to turn the function off completely, just decreasing ist would be VERY, VERY awesome :-)

Thanks for any ideas.

Just received my g tab and even though I have been reading on here quite often I was wondering a few things.

1. What is the best set up on the g for speed and dependability?

2. Can someone link the best (easiest) directions for rooting? I use computers all the time, but am unsure of the process.
[G Tablet General] TeamSpeed:
2. You should look at downloading z4root and hit either one of the two buttons. :)

1. I am using the stock 3389 update coupled with the gapps update, then loaded titanium backup to do the market fix. Very responsive!
[G Tablet General] Andronick:
total noob myself

I am a noob too.

Up to now, I have tried two custom roms. The first three weeks I was on Tnt lite 2.2 and I switched to Vegan b5.1 yesterday.

Step 1: install clockworkmod, then boot with power and volume up pressed together and ake some time to explore the cwm menues (volume to scroll, home to confirm and back to cancel).

You will see a backup/restore option somewhere in there: do a backup of your stock machine.

After that, you can fiddle all you want with your Tab.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245&highlight=install+clockworkmod

Step 2: after that flashing is a breeze, I am very impressed by the latest Vegan, it configures many of the possibilities of the Tab, including the stock roms. Just dload the file, find it in sd/download, rename to update.zip and put at the root of internal sd. Turn off, power and volume up, clear cache in cwm, update from sd in cwm and voilà. Find it in gtab dev section. You will also get root from the procedure.

In between steps, you might want to install titanium backup and backup your apps any issues can be resolved afterwards by reinstalling from there. In the market or on the web and sideloaded.

I guess many other things could be said but I felt overwhelmed at times by the amount of infos so I tried to keep it simple and you can use it as a query basis for your own researches.

Enjoy! ;)

For some reason, apps like angry birds, 2 player reactor, and the modified flash for hulu don't install unless I unmount my sd card first. Otherwise I get the application not installed message. Any advice?

Just install it with the SD unmounted. Then from there under the applications tab you can move to SD if it is available. If it isn't then you will have to go with apps to sd.

I ordered mine yesterday. Kinda surprised I haven't received a shipping notification for it yet. How long after you ordered did it ship?

Looks good, btw.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Norwester:
I ordered mine day before yesterday (afternoon) and it just shipped today. I think they were buried with orders. At least it didn't take as long as Otterbox did.
[EVO 4G Accessories] marctronixx:
yeah when they were sending out the gray ones during christmas week, that and the bad weather caused a LOT of delays.

if you placed an order in the morning with these guys, they ship out the next day. i have purchased all 3 cases from them and that is exactly how they shipped to me.

i didnt get any bubble wrap in this one though.. :( :)

Just ordered mine off eBay brand new red/black shipped from California 29.99!
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
Dang, guess I should have waited a few more days and saved a few bucks. Thought it would be a little longer before they hit ebay so I ordered directly from Ballistic as soon as I got the email that they were available. I didn't get mine yet, hopefully it comes on Monday.
[EVO 4G Accessories] firemedic1343:
I'm going to hold out for some reviews before I buy from ebay, just to make sure it's not a knock off.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
Yeah, that's always a possibility with ebay.

Looks like they are on Amazon too.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...rect=true&qid=1293892730&sr=8-5&condition=all
[EVO 4G Accessories] tinybfk:
I will update if its legit when I receive it and take some pics. I mainly bought it because its shipped from California so it should only take a day or 2 to get here. I'm hoping by Tuesday. I'm pretty sure they're legit though judging from the feedback and all.
[EVO 4G Accessories] firemedic1343:
My guess is that you're probably right. I'm still glad you're the one taking the risk on the first one :)

I'll get one once as you give the thumbs up!
[EVO 4G Accessories] marctronixx:
this company likely purchased these direct form Ballistic. since the amazon company is a wholesaler, they can sell this at reduced costs. this is one reason why an item you see online is cheaper than seeing it in a brick and mortar... i would imagine its totally legit...

but if you are in doubt, just call up Ballistic and just ask them if this company is legit... ;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] tinybfk:
I'm pretty sure the eBay ones ad amazon ones are from the same company by the way
[EVO 4G Accessories] firemedic1343:
I'll definitely buy from Amazon, free Prime shipping!!!

Do you have a link to the case being sold directly from Amazon. I can only find a 3rd party seller on Amazon(G.I.N DEALS Storefront on Amazon.com)
[EVO 4G Accessories] edlex:
I went ahead and just ordered the red/black through Amazon's 3rd party seller "G.I.N. Deals". Can't beat it for $30.99 and free shipping. Worst case at least Amazon is in the middle so if anything goes wrong they will intervene. I must say the seller does have very high rating/reviews so they seem very legit. Ballistic got my money on the grey/black case so I couldn't pass this deal up!
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
Got mine today, much better than my broken Seidio "Rugged" case. My only 2 complaints are that the headphone port cover could snap closed a little better, and the case is extremely difficult to remove once you put it on. I guess that's good in a way because I know it won't just pop off if I drop it, but I definitely would't recommend this case to anyone that does frequent battery changes.
[EVO 4G Accessories] EricSS619:
jus got my red case and I must say it is hot! As far as the case goes the only complaints I have is that my power button is hard to press, but that may just be my evo as the power button has kinda looked crooked since I got it.

The top menu thing is hard to pull down as the case is so close to the screen.

The case is damn hard to open once it is on, that could be considered a pro I guess but it sure sucks when you wanna open it.

The last problem I have is that I cant plug my usb cable into the phone all the way because of the case shape. I dont know if the stock usb plug goes in fine, but I no longer have the stock cable as it fell into a soda.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
The stock USB cable works fine. I tried the ones I have from my Pre and they also work just fine. Tried one I got from Monoprice, the plastic around the plug is much bigger and it doesn't quite plug in all the way.

I don't have a problem with pulling down the notification bar, but I have small hands. Just a tip though, if you use LauncherPro, you can use your home button to open/close your notifications.
[EVO 4G Accessories] EricSS619:
Figured the stock cable worked. I am using monoprice cables and my solution was to use a razor blade to cut away some of the plastic off the usb cable. Worked pretty well. As far a the notification bar goes I am getting used to it but still have minor issues which I'm sure I'll get used to as time goes on... No launcherpro for me for three time being!

I just wanted to let everyone know that the sellers on Ebay & Amazon are not authorized re-sellers for the Ballistic case. I ordered the red/black case from Ebay & had troubles with the proximity sensor. I called Ballistic & spoke to "Kristin Edge" & She told Me this & that they would not warranty anything purchased from a place other than Ballistic.So: Buyer Beware!
[EVO 4G Accessories] tinybfk:
Thats lame they don't uphold the warranty for the amazon one. If it was used I could see that, but its brand new. Either way for the cheaper price I would rather get the eBay one and save the extra $20 for a new case from a different company if this one messes up.
[EVO 4G Accessories] tinybfk:
Got my red/black ballistic case from eBay today! Brand new and its awesome. 30 bucks well spent. I can only upload 1 pic right now but have more and can take more if need be. I will do a small review after a few days with it but so far its bulky but nice.
[EVO 4G Accessories] edlex:
I just got mine today from amazon and it came in the same retail packaging as the previous post. Best $30 bucks I've ever spent. The reseller is called G.I.N Deals out of california.
[EVO 4G Accessories] RADroid:
Does this case need a screen protector under the protector thats built in? I returned my innocase II because it kept knocking my zagg off so was looking at this hoping I wouldnt need one on the glass.
[EVO 4G Accessories] lembowski:
That's an amazing profit margin. I bought a black/black off Ebay for $29.00 shipped on a best offer. Now that seller had to pay shipping, Ebay fees, Paypal fees and they still had to make a profit in order for them to sell it. I imagine after all that they would get $24ish dollars.

Now Ballistic directly sells them for $49.99 + Shiping. They must be making almost $30 off each case lol
[EVO 4G Accessories] tinybfk:
The case comes with a screen protector and also has one built into the case.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
You don't really need to use it, but it gets rid of the "watermark" effect you get from the built in screen protector. I would recommend using it just for that reason.
[EVO 4G Accessories] edlex:
Or you can do the baby powder trick.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
Yeah, if you want specks of baby powder between the screen and the protector. I tried it and it looks like crap.

[EVO 4G Accessories] firemedic1343:
Nice review. Thanks for the info
[EVO 4G Accessories] RADroid:
Whatvthe heck I'll buy one. Im already prepared to file off the inner part that someone mentions iterferes with the notification bar pull down. I'll even remove the builtin protector if need be and just use my zagg - my third zagg as it were. Bottom line it doesnt look like this case will dislodge the zagg like 2 other cases have. I also dont plan on removing the phone often I just use the stock charger cable not a phone dock.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Brodizzel:
Thanks. It's the first product I've really ever liked enough to do one.

The only 'interference' I've noticed so far is the one I mentioned about the screen protector that comes with the case. I'm sure if you left your Zagg on there you'd have zero problems with the softkeys. Haven't had a problem with clicking the notification bar. I mean, for a big guy I have sorta small fingers but they're not THAT small.
[EVO 4G Accessories] MrWicked1:
i have had mine for about two weeks and same thing with my holster got in the car and it popped apart I haven't messed around with it to try to fix it yet. Couple days ago I started noticing in a call I couldn't get the screen back on then I took off the case and it came on. Some how it's blocking the prox sensor. Today I cut the little clear plastic that covers the sensor off and now it seems to be working fine.
[EVO 4G Accessories] billfold:
I just ordered the black case off of Amazon. Seems legit from everyone else that had ordered one. I'll take my chances to save almost 40%.
[EVO 4G Accessories] dmc971989:

I just covered up the sensor window on the inside of the case with a very small piece of electrical tape, problem solved...

I have the same issue with my Cyclops...though I never had the issue with my Seidio Rugged.
[EVO 4G Accessories] RADroid:
I just got mine and its definetly cool looking. I use an app called hellostatusbar so I don't have to try and pull the notify bar down. Even without the ballistic case I found it easier than swyping it down.

It does look I'm going to have to remove the built-in screen protector though. It's literally sticking to my on screen Zagg protector and I like the Zagg a lot.

All in all I like it
