[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thefa:
Hi,

I have seen various topics on contacts syncing and how to avoid sync with Google account to pollute the Contacts on the phone with what is not part of "My Contacts". I have been to apply most of this but it seems that it is only partial:

I can get the People application to show only the contacts I want, this is fine.

The issue is that when I send an email and I start typing in the To field, I'm offered all possible contacts, even the ones I explicitly filtered out and which are not appearing in People application...

Is this the expected behaviour? I hope no:-) Is there something I can do to avoid that?

Any chance it could be a left over for a first sync? If yes, how can I clean it for good?

Thanks a lot for any help on this,
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost800:
If you're talking about the Gmail app... it works the same way it does online, so you'll get all the contacts. I don't think you can change this.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thefa:
I was talking about email and sms apps.

For Gmail, I'm clear it works as you say (even if the proposed contacts are not sorted in the same way on Android than in the browser, and it is a bit less convenient).

so uhh yeah, after being on stock froyo for a bit and them coming back to cyanogenmod i couldnt help notice the way wayy better reception and all that on froyo. and so i asked a question before about what does that and you guys said drivers and whatnot which im assuming is the "radio" that you all talk about in roms. so is there by any chance some way of getting this better radio on cyanogenmod? cheers
[Legend General] rajasyaitan:
Just flash the latest radio and you're all set. I believe the latest is 7.13.35.05.
[Legend General] curto:
:eek: will that work? thats all i have to do? if so do you know where can i get the radio to flash then? and also, are you sure that would work lol? seems too.. simple :rolleyes:
[Legend General] entropicamente:
I flashed the zip from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=841932

It works well...
[Legend General] curto:
i already have that radio lol. i believe the froyo one is 7.14
[Legend General] entropicamente:
That radio is taken from the rom with Froyo released for Vodafone devices.

You probably have already installed it when you have flashed the latest OTA with Froyo. I'm not sure, but I don't think that installing CyanogenMod overwrites the radio installed by the stock rom.
[Legend General] curto:
actually now that ive taken a look at my screenshot of that froyo rom ive got in my sig (the one im talking about that i was trying with the amazing wifi reception and all that) the radio is actually 7.05 and that other number in front of it is an older version too. so does that mean the older versions are better or what? i get better wifi reception and all that on an older radio? anyways im sure you see my point, so now im confused lol
[Legend General] rajasyaitan:
7.05? Or is it 7.13.35.05? If you do lurk around more and read through the radio update threads, some people already mentioned they have better reception on older radio. I can't verify that but the latest radio do make my reception better. Or you can try flashing a few radio update and see which has the best reception.
[Legend General] curto:
alright that sounds good then. is there like a main list or something where they all are or do i have to search through all the threads in development to find them?

ok guys i have a survivor EVO who survived for 12 minutes drowned in water, but my wifi, bluetooth and front cammera are not working, now i claimed as lost in the insurance and they are sending me a replacement for my phone, now my question is can i use the old drowned evo in METROPCS or that esn will be invalid?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
It can be ported to evo just never used on sprint again. it can also go to cricket
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
Yes, you can just flash it to metroPCS, there are tons of instructions out there. HOWEVER, I noticed you're in NYC. Just keep in mind the Metro PCS network in NYC and New england is quite new and uses the 1700mHz AWS band, which the evo does not support.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxtyle:
this means what exactly? not internet? or not service at all?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
No service in any way, shape or form.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aph:
In my experience insurance doesn't report the esn to sprint if you only talk to the insurance folks directly. The only way to get it deactivated or marked as lost or stolen is to actually tell sprint. Whether it's asking them for the phone number of asurion and telling them the phone was lost or telling them in the store.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonyandrews:
Also please do not forget that Insurance Fraud is bad. It causes higher deductibles for those that make claims, even those that are not making fraudulent claims.

If you have the device, water damaged or not, you are supposed to send it to Asurion. Asurion is not my friend, however I am a customer of theirs. I think that you should send the phone to them.

I do wonder why it was 12 minutes in the water and not 11 or 13. 11 minutes in the water sounds much more believable for an insurance claim than 12.

I do not like people to commit insurance fraud, however my employment is based on the basis of deterring insurance.

I'm just gonna say what everyone else is thinking... YOU'RE A DOUCHE! ! :eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
While I think he came off as kind of douche-y when he questioned the minutes the phone was dunked in water, I think he's quite right about everything else. It IS insurance fraud, and it WILL raise our deductible. Just a year ago it would cost $50 to replace a phone with asurion, now it costs double that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjpp23:
How is not sending my dead phone to asurian going to raise insurance rates? ? Don't be stupid, will it hurt state farm when my body shop doesn't send back my totaled bumper after it paid my claim? ! They upped the deductable because phones cost more...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
I meant to hit the quote button but I hit the thanks button by mistake. Anyway, your example is pretty stupid. The point is he reported his phone lost or stolen when in fact it wasn't. I am sure that he new that if he reported it as damaged then he would have to return the damaged phone thats why he reported it as lost or stolen. If you report your car stolen but in reality you have it hidden somewhere in a friends garage then file an insurance claim isn't that fraud? If you drive your car into a brick wall and the insurance company totals your car out do you get to keep the totalled car to repair then sell it to someone else? Of course not, it becomes the property of the insurance company.

I'm glad you think your perfect....

As much as we pay for these phones that are outdated six months later who gives a ****....

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
I never said anything about being perfect, I also am not judging anyone or what they do. I could care less what anyone decides to do, that's their business but still, it is what it is and that's a fact. Also, what do you mean by as much as we pay for these phones? Do you remember what cell phones cost 5, 10 or 15 years ago and you gonna mention about the price of phones now? The price of these phones now are way more than reasonable for what we get even though its gonna be outdated in six months, thats just the nature of the industry. If you buy a new car today, in 6 months it aint gonna be worth **** either compared to what you paid for it so whats your point? If something happens to your car are you gonna commit fraud to get as much as you can out of the insurance company because you paid an arm and a leg for your car? Hell, what if your boss tells you one day that "as much as we pay you, you can blow me", is that ok? Like I said it is what it is and you cant dispute that. What ever you decide to do is your business and what ever the OP decides to do is his business, I was just pointing out the obvious facts without casting judgement.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohr:
So.... your belief is that since you believe HTC is charging way too much for the phones, that makes it OK to steal from Asurion? :confused:

Do you not grasp the fact the Asurion has to pay for the phones they send out to people who commit fraud?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epicroot:
O

Asurion does not pay for our phones every body here that pays 7$

A month for 24 months. Is 168$ plus 100 dollar deductible they are effectively getting us to pay 268 dollars for us to get a refurbished replacement phone.... now granted my math is based on us having a 2 yr contract and that you only make a claim once a yr... sounds like they're winning to me.....

Just my theory on this as much as **** cost in this world of ours every now and then you've got to stick it to the man

Edit. Have you ever actually seen the invoice price of the Evo ..... buying a phone is worse than buying a car

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxtyle:
so lemme ask u something here, so if i report my phone damaged, i gotta returned and pay 100 dollars, but i reported lost, i still paid 100 dollars but guess what?? i have a spare battery and some parts in case i need it, so i guess is a pretty good deal... come on, if it was free to send the phone back and get a new one, i wouldve done it...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saleenfiend:
Insurance fraud is illegal on any level. $5 or $5 million dollars. By keeping the phone you are contributing to possible future increases of insurance rates or deductibles.

What I think is funny is that you openly admit to breaking the law on a public forum. Then, you continue to justify yourself. The law is the law.

Assurion is a business and their drive is to profit. If you do not want to support them then you have other options such as Best Buy Insurance or no insurance.

By returning the phone you are giving Assurion a possible chance to refurbish that phone and the ability to keep insurance rates and deductibles down.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxtyle:
so what are u some insurance fraud cop?? if yes ill give u my address so u can come... stop bullshitting me, how can they prove i didnt lose my phone? so who cares, now, lemme tell u something, yes they here to make profit, but isnt it the money we pay every month their profit? come on.. send it back so they can reburbish it and then get money out of the phone i paid for? they getting more money out of me that the money i paid for the phone on sprint (WITH A 2 YEARS CONTRACT).. so NOPE they`re NOT getting my phone back, PERIOD! so u telling me that if if u buy a car and is messed up u gonna give away the money that u paid for it, and give it as a gift to the insurance company so they can fix it and sell it again (of course u getting nothing out of the sale) and still pay for the new car? (which problably wont be new either) i dont think so,. so please... think what would u do b4 trying to b perfect here
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Of course they report it to Sprint, if they didn't they would be taking losses left and right.

http://www.intomobile.com/2010/12/2...ed&utm_campaign=Feed:+IntoMobile+(IntoMobile)

Best Nexus S review I've seen, but I do have one question. I just assumed the Nex S had hspa+ when I bought it but its stated often in this article that it doesnt. Ive done speedtests in a 4G area mutiple times and I consistantly get 5-7 mb/s which is the same my G2 gets in the same area. So is it just my G2 has a higher potential speed assuming perfect conditions?
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
yes, the G2 has a higher speed potential the Nexus S supports HSPA 7.2
[Nexus S General] allen099:
Exactly. Speed depends not only on your hardware but how much bandwidth is pushed through the towers. So if your area is only allocated 7 mb/s, that's what you'll get even if your phone can do 21 mb/s. Really the only thing that type of speed is good for is tethering. Our browsers will do just fine on 1 mb/s. Now, to go read that review...
[Nexus S General] tominater12:
The review is alright but I do not like how much focus was on benchmarks, hspa+, and HD video recording.
[Nexus S General] rashad1:
I ran a speed test on my Nexus S against my brothers Evo "4G", which was on 4G...and my Nexus S came out on top, both times:

The wifi test were taken on his 4G connection while tethering, we tested his connection directly from his phone and it was the same speed
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
and people are *****ing about the lack of HSPA+...you guys forget that in recent tests Tmobile came out on top in speed

[Fascinate General] dricacho:
I have been trying out Geeknik's newer Stupidfast kernels, particularly v1.54 and v12/19/10 for DJ05. I've noticed that when turning the GPS or Airplane mode on/off from the pull down menu, the phone becomes unresponsive at times requiring a battery pull. Once the GPS or Airplane mode is on, the respective icons stay gray (disabled). Other times, when trying to turn off the GPS or Airplane mode, the respective icons stays colored (enabled) but they are actually disabled. I've also noticed that when in ROM manager to download a ROM, it will take a long time to pull up the ROM list and sometimes it errors out.

Any suggestions??
[Fascinate General] mattstakilla:
I believe this is an allready known issue. I would recommend updating to the v1.98, its a test version and a download link can be found somewhere in the forum.

Beyond that nothing can be done. He is no longer working on his kernels.
[Fascinate General] dricacho:
Thanks...I kinda like the overclocked speed. I have to check if v1.98 can be OC'd.
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
Been running SF1.54 for about 2 weeks and have not encountered what you speak of at all. And never saw a complaint about if before on irc. If that is a known issue I don't think it would have been labeled stable.

nvm. Reread the post and they had a problem with the test version, not the 1.54 stable.

What's wrong:

I cannot go in bootloader mode with the hardware keys.

When I press vol up + trackpad + power i get 3 short vibrates and charging led flashes, screen stays off.

I can access bootloader if I use reboot bootloader from a adb shell.

This is what happened:

I have bootloader 0.84.2000 PC10110000 (eng hboot) and rage method root on desire-z with stock rom (1.34.405.5).

I also flashed godspeed OC kernel

I wanted to protect myself from losing root and s-off if I would do the ota update.

I have read that gfree would accomplish this.

So I decided to do this, but I made the mistake of doing this within recovery.

I ran gfree, but my sdcard wasn't mounted, So after a reboot I didn't find the backup of my radio partition, this way I lost my original radio config partion.

When I rebooted, I wanted to check my S-off was still persent or not. and I couldn't get into the bootloader.

I got 3 short vibrates and a flashing red/orange charging led.

I can access recovery and bootloader from adb shell with reboot recovery/bootloader.

I know what I did wrong, but don't know how to fix it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joemm:
try vol-down + power

Here's a post explaining whats going on:

[Epic 4G General] trueplaya89:
So my evo is starting to act up, wondering if the epic would be a viable replacement?

Anyone done this or have any input on it?

Mostly use my phones for the tether, texting and killing time at work.

Thanks for any help!
[Epic 4G General] 1greek4u:
Not much of an upgrade unless you want the keyboard or a slightly better screen if you ask me. If your phone is acting up it may be software related? Try flashing a different ROM or something
[Epic 4G General] trueplaya89:
Could be rom, but Im thinking the meeting with the concrete today may have something to do with it to be honest.

Could be warranty time. Lol.

I'll try a different Rom in a bit.

Cyanogen mod time.

But nothing really better than the evo then?
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
The Epic is better then an EVO overall..but it boils down to is it worth for you to spend money buying a new one...

your usage is mostly fairly simple, I guess you'd have better time texting if you use the physical kb I guess...or if by killing time you mean running high end games..then Epic would definitely be an improvement..

I mean what do you mean by "acting up" and "killing time"..be a bit specific?

I'll tell you this though Epic runs really awesome stock with little to no issues...
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Let us answer that question after official froyo is released and/or Cyanogen mod is fully ported.
[Epic 4G General] trueplaya89:
I have had 5 random restarts, seem to all happened during data usuage, but I haven't had random ones on this phone before. Trying to strain the phone some more now.

My usuage for my phone is mostly just the tether/wifi tether, facebook chat, texting, mp3 player occasionally, haven't really gotten into gaming on the phone.

I know it may me being paranoid... And I haven't bought a new phone in a while haha.

And anyone swype on their epic? Or is everyone all die hard keyboard?

Thanks everyone
[Epic 4G General] D3luSi0n4L:
I just recently got the epic over the evo, due to the beautiful screen and so far I'm thrilled. The Evo is a very nice phone and I'd say on par with the epic but the epic has the keyboard along with a super amoled screen. Some say the 8MP camera is a plus for the evo but personally I'd rather have a samsung 5mp than a htc 8mp, just due to their reputation. But both take beautiful pics, so it really comes down to is the keyboard and amoled with gorilla glass worth it for you? I rarely use the slide out, mostly swype, but for long emails, texts, etc the slide out is extremely useful!

So evaluate the pros / cons and see if its worth it for you! I'm more than happy I went with the epic!

Sincerely,

D3luSi0n4L
[Epic 4G General] Neptune5k:
I agree with D3luSi0n4L, you just need to evaluate the pros/cons as they pertain to you. I'm overall pleased with my Epic because IMO the screen quality is superior and I like to have a physical keyboard (especially when traveling, Emulators play nicely with keyboards :) ) The only hangup with the Epic is the lackluster support from Samsung. If you really like playing with new ROMs and constantly tweaking your phone, then the EVO will be better for you. Lets face it, HTC phones just have more support behind them. Hell, even the Hero is still getting updates...

Like i said, figure out what's most important to you and go from there.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
The epic is a viable replacement. Its noticeably smaller though, even if its only .3 inches. That might make a difference. Other than that its basically the same+keyboard. And froyo isn't out officially yet. and there's a considerable difference in development for the epic and evo...so you might wanna take that into account too, although stock dk28 froyo is good enough. I've been running it since it firs got leaked and my gps is perfect and everythin else works. Even the browser. Wen froyo is officially released, this phone will easily beat evo :p
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Oh and swype is preinstalled lol
[Epic 4G General] lazyart:
Evo has Swype since last week's update.
[Epic 4G General] sleepy8594:
That's a downgrade if you ask me, I have both unless you game and watch movies. The Evo is a better daily functional phone, hands down.
[Epic 4G General] 1greek4u:
Basically the phones are very similar. You should try to see about that warranty before you drop a load of cash on a phone that isn't all that different. Are you out of warrantee/due for an upgrade? T-Mobile Nexus S looks yummy
[Epic 4G General] Tahde:
Will have to agree with this statement. But again, this is MY OWN personal thoughts on it. I have both phones as well and I find myself using my EVO a lot more than my Epic. Not saying that the Epic is not a good phone because it is a good phone.

At the end of the day though, its all in what YOU want and what works best for YOU. Thats something no one can speak on. Either way, your in a win-win! GOOD LUCK!
