This whole problem started when I attempted to revert back to stock from having Skyraider. I got back to stock, but now I can't get 3G data. Under Mobile Networks, I'm stuck at "Turning On" Is my Droid incredible a paperweight now? if not, any known workarounds?

Thanks in advance!
[Droid Incredible General] thehoovie:
Did you do a factory reset from within the stock ROM settings, so that you had to do a *228 option 1 to re program your phone? This is usually what willfix 3g issues if you experience the issues across different ROMs. Doing a factory reset from the settings menu wipes more data than doing it from CWM.

If that doesn't work, I would try using an official RUU if you haven't done that.

I hope that helps and good luck.

[Captivate General] MRQuad:
Hi guys,

I have a newbie question again.. I just want to know what are the common problems the captivate have?

If you were given a chance to replace your fone, will it still be captivate or other fone? and why?

Did you regretted that you get captivate and not the other fone?

So far for me, it's the best smartphone out there..

Any input is allowed.. But hope not a bad one.. Thanks for reading..
[Captivate General] shadow65781:
some people love it and some hate it.

the hardware is awesome the software kinda sucks.stupid rfs file system that the distros no longer use for obvious reasons.

I bought mine in july and its now jan, still waiting for the "soon to be released 2.2".

the new samsung looks awesome but I will most likeley switch to htc because sammy has made me wait toooooooooo long for something I should already have.
[Captivate General] pmd5700:
It seems like the only main common problem is decent GPS. I've had good GPS since I bought the thing, others have never had good GPS no matter what ROMs or Fixes they tried.

I went with the Captivate because I had to stay on ATT and didn't want an iPhone, but I'm happy with my choice.
[Captivate General] skatcat31:
The gps is an easy fix using lbttest mode. I get 12-30 satellites. So no complaint there. I've fixed it several times, but older captivates have the issue of a bad gps unit.

I'd say no problems here except for stock rom.
[Captivate General] alaimar:
If I had to keep it stock i would probably hate it. There are quite a few custom ROM's that make this phone unbelievable. I personally don't for stock so it works great for me. I've had iPhones for years and thought iphone was the best phone until I got my android. Its a major hassle just to JB the iphone. I have already replaced and stayed with Captivate and have gotten a few more since then. I currently use Cezar's SE ROM and its flawless. Awesome GPS/battery/speed/stability. If you like a good kick in the pants you can flash the OC'd GT version.

So for I love my Captivate. I have had it for about 3 months and I am getting the itch to root and play with ROMS.
[Captivate General] alaimar:
Its one of those things when you do it you'll probably think its a different phone from every aspect. If you research and educate yourself you're good to go. I'm yet to brick a phone and I flash about 2-3 different roms weekly. Backup your original ROM before you start flashing. If you love it now once you customize it you'll probably want to sleep with it :-)

Do not scratch that itch unless you plan to scratch it for the rest of the time you have an android phone. Coming from a rooted and romed backflip my captivate was running 2.2 within 15 min of the box being opened and I have flashed nearly every rom out there.

Ok, so I have a samsung captivate, and with the captivate i do not have to root to flash recovery and then a custom ROM.

But, my friend has an EVO and wants a ROM. Only problem is he's running 2.2, which as I've read hasn't been rooted for evo yet.

So, can I bypass needing root by simply flashing recovery and flashing custom ROM?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gridironbear:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x04ty29er:
Yes there is. You either need someone running NeroV3 to extract /system/media/audio/ui/shudown.ogg (I believe that is the filename) and send it to you, or you need to extract it yourself from the zip.

After you have that, push it to the corresponding location on your phone, and Poof. You should have the shutdown sound from NeroV3.

You need to hardspl your device before you flash to a ny rom (in this case 6.5). Hardspl and rom flashing are different processes.

Ok so it's very clear that the x10 2.1 software and firmware was very rushed..

And so far AOSP 2.1 has been doing wonderful things on my x10.

I have found that some apps that require a sound input "from the MIC" for example the star trek tri-corder app crashes when using the sound meter.

1.Will getting access to bootloader/firmware give us more power & control?

2.Does aosp2.2 allow us to run 2.2 apps?

[G Tablet General] butchconner:
Allenfx,

I went to several of the sites and as I understand it what has been done is release the stock Android 3.0 Honeycomb stuff to the developers. But now they will have to tailor it to the hardware of the individual devices. I did see tegra2 stuff where I looked.

So I think you might say it is coming. But it will depend on how long it takes to get all the drivers and settings to work.

It will not be a quick process like the updates for VEGAn, TNT, etc. Much more work and detail to be done.

If this doesn't answer the question, someone straighten me out!

Rev
[G Tablet General] Allenfx:
Nice to know its being worked on
[G Tablet General] TeutonicWolf:
Not sure it makes any sense to spend too much time working on GTablet ports to Gingerbread (i.e. Android 2.3) when I'd expect that Honeycomb (Android 3.0) devices will be out shortly and the Honeycomb source will drop for AOSP use within a couple of weeks of the first device -- which looks like it may be the Motorola Xoom...

As mentioned, Cyanogenmod 7 will be Gingerbread and will likely be the first ported to the GTablet (assuming that there isn't too much driver tweaking involved between Froyo and GB)
[G Tablet General] WantADroid:
2.3-3.0

I think we will see gingerbread in early summer officially released by viewsonic, although modders here will most likely have a great Rom based on 2.3 before then. My bet(just my opinion) we wont see Honeycomb on the G tab until sometime in the fall.

Would love to be wrong and see 3.0 sooner.....

"Please give us your inside info on the hardware problems.... I haven't found A thing to make me believe the G tab won't EVENTUALLY get Honeycomb."

hi there

i wana purchase hd2 and i will install the nand version of android

what would you recommend the 1024 ram or 576 ram ???

what are the advantage and disadvantages of both ???
[HD2 General] 10507:
Always choose the Tmous US 1024, because It has more memory. Some NAND versions are memory hogged while others are less. I have a TMOUS1024, and after flashing Desire HD, I have about just over 500MB left. So if you have a 576, you will run out of memory just from the flash.
[HD2 General] aarif_ziaee:
thanks a lot

one more question do all the tmobile hd2 have 1024 ???
[HD2 General] 10507:
Yes, all tmobile HD2 have 1024MB.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
All t mobile USA models. Any other tmobile, like T-Mobile UK are the normal hd2

btw don't confuse memory with RAM.

Both the US and EU have same amount of RAM. Only diff is the US has 1GB of internal storage.

I am very tech savvy and have been around xda for awhile, but I cant get the NAND boot for the Rhodium (specifically the Tilt 2) to work. When I try, my phone boots into the haret type thing for a couple of seconds then restarts. I was wondering if someone could give me a step by step process of how to do so... possibly noob friendly. I'm pretty sure it would help others out as well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Go to the thread maybe?

NAND Boot Testing - it is just for testing, it's not really "noob friendly" as you say - hence the reason directions aren't very noob friendly. Once it's more stable, and a full NAND there'll be all sorts of builds and guides I'm sure. We're not nearly there yet on NAND tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] accilies45:
Dumb comment, sorry to say

Wow, how is it any use to the development team if you can not test. All I wanted was to put it on my Tilt 2 so I can give feedback. If only one or two people are successful in the NAND, whats the point?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] whitehooptie:
You don't need to be an ass about it. If you're that "tech savvy", I'm sure you can figure it out. Not everyone has the answers you need............
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mcnutty:
Actually, we have been testing NAND for about 5 months over at PPCG which is primarily CDMA users. I'd say we have about 20 users that consistently flash for testing, and some users have more than one phone to test on.

Also, the devs that have been working on this are all CDMA users as well, which is why we are running into more issues now that we have brought it over here to XDA (which is mostly GSM users). I was asked if I could mention the project over here, and so far, I have had two polar opposite reactions. On one hand, I have had a couple of very helpful GSM testers, and then the rest has been a bunch of people who can't be bothered to read the FAQ...

Unfortunately, NAND is quite a bit different than Haret in the way it handles GSM phones, and I'm working on it as best as I can.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duce HD2:
I don't feel comfortable posting it here since i didn't create it. But all you have to do is extract it from V1 or V2, just unzip one of the ROMs to your PC, then go to system/app, copy "GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk" to your SD on phone, then use root explorer to move it to system/app on your phone, and replace. Done! I've done it and looks great again.

I was using Torch to help my friend install his car stereo and I guess I had it on too long, because when I went to use it again the LED wouldnt light up anymore. I tried taking a picture, recording a video, different settings in Torch, but nothing works. Is this something that can be replaced/fixed or do I have a phone without a flash now? I thought LEDs were indestructible...
[G2 and Desire Z General] ijoshv2:
LED flashes can overheat and burn out.. Oddly enough, their normal lifespan is 20,000 hours. :O So either you were doing some serious lighting, or it was a manufacturer's defect.

try flashing a different ROM and see if the flash works afterwards, if you've been using a custom ROM and are rooted.

If either it does not work after a different ROM, or you have not rooted and flashed a different ROM, i would recommend backing up your stuff and getting a replacement phone. A burned out flash after little, if any heavy use, is a reason for a factory exchange. Definitely.

Good luck, there.

[G2 and Desire Z General] ibemad1:
I think you should just exchange it.

Keep in mind that when you exchange a phone with t-mobile they send you the replacement before you have to send back your own, so there's practically no downtime.

[G2 and Desire Z General] XpoX:
Oh I didn't know that. I'll get it swapped. The flash makes the camera so much better.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdWRX:
Damn, but torch clearly gives you the warning that after 45 minutes the LED started glitching. I guess you shoulda thought of that before.

The lifespan of a product might be of many many hourse, but not on one use, just like a normal bulb.
[G2 and Desire Z General] XpoX:
I definitely didnt leave it on for 45 minutes, maybe 5 continuous minutes at the most. I'm thinking its lose or it was going bad anyway. It went out once before randomly (not using Torch that time) and just started working again on its own, so I ignored it. It still hasnt come back on, so I think its dead this time.

I have found that different apps produce different levels of brightness. For instance, the app "Tesla LED Torch" uses the full brightness of the flash compared to "LED Light" which uses a much less intense and most likely more sustainable level of brightness.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z General] XpoX:
The Torch app that comes with most Roms now has 2 different levels. Death ray, and normal. There's a disclaimer when you select death ray because its inviting impending doom upon your phone.

Tmobile has a new one on its way. They were really good about sending me a new one, I just had to follow a few troubleshooting steps and pretend like it wasnt rooted.

Lol! That's funny.

I haven't gotten a new one yet, but I could have sworn that yesterday it turned itself on for a few seconds while I was a few feet away from it lol. I know I saw it, buy I removed all traces of the torch app from /system so i don't know how that's possible. I haven't been able to reproduce.
