Hi everyone I am new to the forum too but have been reading through the threads trying to find a solution to the very same problem as above. There is more knowledge here than available on the geek squad who twice suggested a master reset.

My micro sd card on my DHD completely died too and wouldnt even show up on my pc, but it did come back to life eventually when trying it back in my DHD. After trying a master reset I searched for clues as to what to do. I even deleted a number of times, the contents of the data directory as decribed on one of the threads here, re-booted the DHD and re-installed the locations. Still no POI or other stuff that should be seen.

Eventually I went into Locations widget and tapped on the pin, taking me to a map of Taiwan. I opened the menu and tapped on "Get more". tapping on maps button I searched the list for my maps, in my case United Kingdom and downloaded them, 532 MB which took quite a while even over WiFi. Once downloaded all the POI were there in the list and on the maps. Locations gave my location instead of a longitude/latitude location and it no longer displayed "Updating".

I hope this helps you christofy and others if you should be unfortunate enough to lose data from your sd card. Do back it up. Afraid I still haven't.

I am not sure wether everyone is aware of this bug, but WP7 clock shifts few minutes every night, which with time accumulates into significant amount of time. The only way to fix this is by manually correcting your clock every week.

seems fine to me.. I have it set to update auto and it is showing the same time as my laptop which synchronizes with those NIST servers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] wspaw:
bug?

This bug does not exist on my Focus. What phone are you using?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i can actually confirm this as well. HTC 7 Trophy. I didn't touch the clock till reading this post (so approximately 2 months). within the 2 months, my phone became 5 minutes behind. so it's not a huge drop in time, but there is a drop in time.
[Windows Phone 7 General] CreepinJesus:
5 minutes behind what? Is it synced with anything?

Both my phone and laptop have the same time - both are synced online - so no problem for me...
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
it was set to automatic so it should sync off microsoft website, but comparing the time to my laptop (running windows 7), it was 5 minutes behind.

you using a trophy as well?
[Windows Phone 7 General] CreepinJesus:
No, I have an Omnia 7. Is your laptop synchronised with any servers? If they're both synced and there's a consistent 5 minute gap I suppose it could be an issue with the time servers used maybe?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
the laptop is synced to times.windows.com which is default for windows 7. as for the phone, there is just an automatic and manual switch. it become 5 minutes behind under automatic. i'll switch it back to automatic now and see what it does after a few days.
[Windows Phone 7 General] cbebop7:
I think the phone will sync with the Network time and not time.windows but I may be wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 General] CreepinJesus:
Could be network time, but The Gate Keeper and I are both on the same network, and both our laptops are syncing with time.windows.com. So, something somewhere is a bit fishy.
[EVO 4G General] Zori:
With all these crazy new phones being announced with their super screens and dual core processors, it got me thinking.. Sprint premier customers can upgrade every year. Assuming we got it on day one (me me), do you think we could sell it in craigslist or ebay around late june or early july and make $200? My phone has a spot where anything on a white screen shows up kinda spot burned and the camera lens cover falls off. I'm gonna save these to get a replacement and then sell it. How well would it retain its value in another 6 months? If phones can stay above the 200 mark for a year, then can't we upgrade indefinitely for virtually free (activation fees size) :o

Lol 300+ would be intense but I'd be super happy with 200. I'm sure we could at LEAST get 150 cause that's about how much hero is going for a year and 3 months after launch. Can't wait for those new dual core phones, lets hope sprint grabs one!

[EVO 4G General] DGreen1:
Wouldnt suprise me if you got $300 - $350. I sold a hero with accessories for $250.00 on ebay about 3 months ago.
[EVO 4G General] Cleetis:
Sorry to derail... I was laughing at the "A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo." sig, not the price. I agree with the price.
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
It's not unheard of to get more than you paid for it, because you're selling it with no contract obligations. The comparable "new" price is $450, not $200. That said, a lot of people won't recognize that unless you spell it out for them and think you're ripping them off. But there is unquestionably value in a phone that does not require a contract extension or use of upgrade eligibility.

After a year though, with newer, better phones out, it'll lose some value. But even if you don't "break even," you have to consider the value of having the phone for the year you used it, as well as the value of having the latest and greatest new one. Whatever it's worth on the market at the time you decide to upgrade, I look at it as a bonus.

No way, nice! That thing is ancient :p I made a long post earlier but I guess it didn't go through, I was saying I'll sell my evo a few weeks before the next big sprint phone comes out, or when we know something is coming but it's only leaks and it's not announced to the public yet, that way the evo is still one if the more in demand phones retaining it's value. All about timing, even if it's not before july!

This is my plan as well. Right now you can get like 300. I am expecting 150-200 by summer as others have mentioned. I'd be very happy with that.

Gotta love Sprint. If you're a phone lover and want fast upgrades, it can't be beat. Just wish they had more super phones to choose from instead of just 1 or 2.

On a side note, I can still sell my old HTC Touch for over $50 on eBay, but I kinda like it for nostalgia.

It's going to be a long time before the evo drops in price, at work we have a pretty excellent contract with Sprint and the evo is the only device we don't get a discount on. We can get -literary - any other device for free... but not the evo. I had to beg to get one...:)

Just fwiw. I wouldn't mind a drop in price though, my wife's 12 months are almost up and she's sick of her moment :)

Through a fun glitch with Best Buy and my upgrade I got my Evo for $50. The phone was $200 and I sold my Moment to a coworker who was not eligible for an upgrade for $150.

They were selling for 200+ on ebay at the time, and she offered $200 but she just had a baby and I'm a nice guy.

Please help! A while ago, i was synchronizing my gmail when wp7 asked me to ipdate and reinput my password. But each time i type in the right password, it says that the password is incorrect! Tried deleteting the account on my phone and putting it back again, still the same. On the browser and also on the desktop, i can log on normally using the same password. Please help
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reflexx1:
That sounds really strange. I've never had any issues with my gmail accounts.

It sounds like a typo, but since you've tried it several times that may not be the case.

Are you sure you didn't mistype the email address instead of the password?

I know that with the software keyboard, I sometimes hit the key next to the one I want to hit. But I'm sure you already tried typing the password slowly and looking at each letter as you type it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slighmd:
Yes i'm 100% sure i got them all correct. Tried changing and rechanging the password but still nothing. Also, i tried on my wife's iphone, and it worked perfectly. On the wp7, nothing

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reflexx1:
Sounds like a bug.

I heard of someone who experienced something similar. They were able to solve it by connecting to a WiFi network and then setting up their gmail account.

I'm not sure why that solved it for them, but maybe it could help you too.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slighmd:
And it just did. I was connected to 3G when it happened. Connected to my home wifi and it finally accepted my password. Again, i connected to 3G just to confirm it and well ut works now. Thanks for all the help guys. Will drop the wp7 guys an email about this
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thresher:
I just ran into the same issue.

I had changed my gmail password via web interface. then the phone asked for the new password but wouldn't accept it.

I ended up deleting the account on the phone, changing the password at gmail (again) to something different, then readded the account to the phone. In that time period though, I logged onto wifi in order to sync faster.

Would have been nice to have seen this thread earlier...

Gmail on Android persistence challenge credentials bug fix

I found this to be a bug with Gmail account log in failures on Andriod when using 2-step verification. It persistently challenges you for credentials although you have successfully logged into your Google account on another machine via a web browser.

This is the fix I found:

Step 1:

Log into your gmail account on another machine using a web browser.

Go to account settings > 2-step verification > authorising sites > application specific password

Step 2:

generate a password called gmail -android but do not click done.

Step 3:

go to device enter your gmail - andriod application specific password and you will get challenged a further 2-3 times enter the same password (you may have to also enter the CAPTCHA (a security image with distorted letters)).

Step 4:

When you are no longer challenged, try to sync with gmail if you do not get a sign-in error on your device then this has worked and be sure to click done in your your google account settings via your browser on the other machine you used.

Hope this helps to those of you who are suffering from this infuriating Google 2-step verification bug. :)

I had countless issues with my Gmail account on WM6.x - same as you describe. Would not accept my credentials.

The steps described above solved it for me (having to reset using that captcha thing) but it would keep on re-occuring. Not seen it so far in WP7 though. *touch wood*

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiko130:
Hey Guys I tried to do the usual search for this issue but didn't find anything so I must ask :)

Just got a MyTouch 4G brand new through a friend but without having to extend my contract/change services.

So my data service on my account is the old $24 Unlimitted BB Add-On which has worked just fine with a blackberry, TouchPro 2, HD2. Even an iPhone that I've used receives data(albeit in 2G).

With the HD2 I used many Android ROMs which work very well and have gotten up to 5mbps data.

However, the new MyTouch 4G refuses to get any data from T-Mobile and when opening the browser it says "Your Data Plan does not work on this device" :(

My question is, Is this something within the phone that rooting + flashing a custom ROM might fix?

Or is my data plan really not usable with this phone? And if its the latter, how come data works on the HD2 while running Android and even NANDroid ?:confused:

THANKS !

If you are with T-Mobile for quite some time, call them and get the $20 Android Preferred plan (unlimited 4G).
[Galaxy Tab General] xoltrix2000:
Is it me or the tablets at the CES today were nothing but crap! All this great hardware but had some serious OS issues, or lack there of.

Even the one from Vizio was lagging/skipping frame rates soooo badly. The Adam was EXTREMELY skipping frame rates, and was had crap touch response, and can't see how feasible playing games on that thing because of the way it's designed. Only the PlayBook seems to be as smooth as a baby's bottom, but it's not Android unfortunately.

My SGT pwns them all, at the same time! hah. What are your thoughts so far?
[Galaxy Tab General] BuglessFan:
If they would have been able to ship last summer, no doubt I'd have an Adam. I'd really love the Pixel Qi screen and near stock Android, but they seemed to go further and further with their customization there, and it just took too long and I got the Tab. I'm still hoping next year brings 15-19" slates/tablets. I'd even consider a Win 8 slate in that form factor, but Ubuntu/other Linux would be best there as a full laptop replacement.
[Galaxy Tab General] subvecto:
15 and 19 inch tablets?? What are you going to do with those, literally surf on them??? :-)
[Galaxy Tab General] mario23:
I think that size really takes away from the portability of the tablet
[Galaxy Tab General] fragdagain:
I dunno, I have been working my tab for about a month. I have a GalaxyS and the Tab and since flashing the firmware to get phone support, I have left my Galaxy S in a desk drawer. I swap sim cards out if I want to carry something smaller than the Tab. None of the tablets announced have talked about voice support. I think the Vizio unit with infrared is interesting but I remember having this on a palm pilot and didnt use it much as a remote.

I don't see how any of these new units are doing anything different until Gingerbread/3.0 or whatever we are calling it is gold.

I like USB ports but what I am going to do with those? Print? I can already print on the tab. What we need is less hardware improvement and more software improvement - something that is missing from the CES announcements. You can customize a turd any way you want but if it's still a turd it's going to stink.
[Galaxy Tab General] BuglessFan:
Replace a laptop. Something that big without the need for the keyboard would be a perfect replacement. With Swype, BlindType and others, I don't need to bother with a full keyboard, and with a tablet, there's no need for a wireless mouse or a fidgety touch pad. Weight-wise, I'm fine with 17" laptop in a bag now, but with the battery life their getting on 10" tabs, I can see something with solid state drive of some kind being a full and complete laptop replacement not requiring me to carry around a brick or open and close it. It is the eventual replacement for the laptop, no doubt. If you really lust for a physical keyboard: Bluetooth, and it'd still be less to lug around than a current laptop bag with a brick, mouse and keyboard. I just hope it's by next year. www.kno.com is already taking pre-orders for a dual screen 14" tablet. We have the tech already to make heavy passive-screen folding laptops as ancient as rotary dialing phones.

My ideal two gadget life would be something around the size of the tab, maybe about half the trim around the screen, as phone/portable tablet, and the big one for actual work and real computing that I use my laptop for now. No phone; just those two sizes.
[Galaxy Tab General] fbrn:
The only one that looked good was the xoom. And honestly I think the main thing is the software that is made for a tablet. If we could get that for our tabs then I don't see the point of going anywhere.

I am so hoping you are right on that one. I paid full retail 15 days too early to get the 100 refund so I am not the happiest about that. However honestly I love the size more than I thought I would. It just fits perfectly so I don't know if the tablets that are being announced would be a little too big after using my galaxy tab?
[Galaxy Tab General] la rider:
I have to agree. I was hoping for a new 7" tab with dual cores and comparable resolution to the tab. 10" tablet is useless on the go and if I'm at home, what's wrong with using a laptop?

I was really disappointed by the Streak 7. I can't even believe Dell has the nerve to introduce such a ****ty product.

Kind of funny how some are in a mad rush to get something bigger while I just junked the iPad in favor of a Galaxy Tab because it's so much smaller and lighter.

Even then speeds over like 1.2ghz begin to get overvolted for stability. Also, none of the current GB roms have a dedicated UV kernel even though the stock one is very close to pershoots from what I've been reading (haven't looked at the voltage tables myself).
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
Oh right,... I assumed it was UV'd straight through,... but that makes sense that it could fail at higher clock speeds when UV'd. Let us know your findings if you take a butchers at the 2.3 kernel.
