I am a flash-a-holic, so maybe I can help a "little".!! I have noticed that many of the latest/greatest themes use some form of the stock messaging ap, which has a check box in the settings menu (under "extra settings") that says something like "Only Mobile Numbers". Unchecking this has fixed this issue for me.

And before I get flamed too bad by people who "know" this isn't the reason, but have not offered their own suggestions - this is what I have noticed and what has worked for me!

[Galaxy Tab General] Guitar4Him:
The Wireless Tether for Root Users has just been updated and now works in infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc.....at least it does on my Droid X. I did the update on a Samsung Fascinate and it still runs in ad-hoc mode. I guess the success of infrastructure mode is dependent on which phone you run it on.

Anyway, this means that doing the WPA_suplicant replacement on the Galaxy Tab won't be needed if your phone supports the new tether version.

BTW...if you've been using the previous (ad-hoc) version of Wireless Tether with your Tab or laptop, you'll have to re-configure the connection.

Why wouldn't one just use the built-in Mobile AP in Settings -> Wireless & Network -> Mobile AP? I used to use Wireless Tether until Mobile AP came out. Glad to hear it's no longer adhoc though.
[Galaxy Tab General] Coolsaber57:
Keep in mind that Infrastructure mode heavily depends on your kernel. The some of the first people to get it were HTC phones (evo, Droid incredible, etc) because their kernel directly supported infrastructure mode.

If I could get Infrastructure mode for my D1, I'd be super happy, but I don't believe it's possible.

Tethering via the built-in app costs money I believe. Wireless Tether for root users does not.

I was able to use the built-in tethering at no additional charge on a T-Mobile Galaxy Tab 5G/month account.

Hey there, im using futureshocks MIUI Nand Rom and im experiencing some bugs

(1) i have strong wlan issues. It seems to disconnect very very often. The weird thing is, that the wifi symbol in the status bar is always showing full connection.... What about the MAC Adress or wifi-channels? Do i have to modify sth? Can i change some .ko files? Wlan is nearly unusable. Did a fresh install with Task 29 but it brought no improvement

(2) The PC Sync via wifi (MIUI Filebrowser) is not workin. Tried it with a third party app (droid phone control), but same problem here. Cannot find "192.168....etc" with my PC Browser.

So I'm having this problem with these 2 things.

If I install MDJs gingerbread nand rom after recovery, my recovery breaks and I can't backup or restore or pretty much anything useful in it. Nothing works and I keep getting errors like can't find MISC, can't mount cache/recovery/log or something like that and a bunch of other errors, so I reinstall the recovery but then my room gets an error loading from MAGDLR which says "nand kernel open failed" in red and my rom won't load so I have to reinstall the rom, and then recovery breaks again.

Any ideas on how to fix this? I don't think it's just a problem with MDJ's rom, but then again I don't know enough to figure out what the problem is. Any help is appreciated, thanks :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moon2:
You don't just find a nand build and flash it on... You need to use specific builds that support clockwork to be able to boot successfully. They're zip files, and there aren't many in the nand section.

To install it, you have to copy the zip file to your sdcard, and through magldr, Boot to SD by holding down the power button, using the volume rocker to navigate, and then through clockwork, flash the zip onto nand.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00102:
So how do I get the clockwork recovery to work after installing the nand rom?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moon2:
The mistake you're making is that you're flashing on a "NAND" build after installing clockwork. YOU DO NOT INSTALL A ROM WHERE YOU HAVE TO RUN a DFT.exe or AndroidInstaller.exe or anything of the sort.

To access clockwork again, reboot, hold down the power button, and choose boot Android from SD.

Note: Future magldr versions may have another menu for this build in.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikas.grover@yahoo.com:
Buddy if you are getting "All Done" message after installing a NAND rom through Clockwork Mod Recovery but still not able to boot( i faced this problem before), then I am afraid you will have to do what they call "task 29"...do some searching on xda for links, i'll give you the procedure -

Basically, task 29 is to cleanup the system completely and start all over again...which means that after doing task 29 you'll having nothing but hspl on the system. As scary as it sounds, since HSPL will not be wiped, you have nothinng to fear but only follow each instruction carefully:

1. back up and format your sd card to clean it up.

2. download Task29 and put your own RADIO file(if you don't want to use the provided radio file in Task 29 folder). e.g. i'll replace my radio rom 2.15.50.14's ".nbh" (new Radio) in the folder which had some 2.08.xx(.nbh)(older radio).

3.a. Restart phone by pressing volume down button and power button simulatenously, this would bring the red/green screen - connect USB to the pc and phone.

3.b. Run the update utility, after which white htc screen would boot and basically your system is completely clean. just pull out the battery and retart system by pressing volume down button and power button simulatenously, this would bring the red/green screen.

4. Now one by one install MAGLDR 1.11 (DAF.exe installation)

5. then install clockwork recovery for hd2 (DAF.exe installation, which gives you partition messages)

6. boot into clockwork recovery, you will notice the mounting errors will be not there now

7. Install your NAND rom from sd again and reboot, it shud work this time

Getting to Recovery in GB

Besides using a reboot into recovery app, you can also shut down the phone, then pull the battery, put the battery back in and the normal Vol Down + Power will get you into Clockwork Recovery. Seems like GB is in some kind of stand by mode even when you power it down.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
Hi all,

I got my Desire HD about 4 weeks ago, and used it quite a lot, with barely any apps installed. (I never use app killers by the way) Over time i realised it was actually acting quite slow for a phone with it's spec, so i asked Vodafone and they sent me another one.

My new one, that i've had for 2 weeks now is still slow for what i would expect from a phone like this, and i'm not just being fussy either.

My friend has an X10 mini, and was showing me the other day, and i was shocked at how much more responsive and faster it is than my Desire HD, so i looked up lag issues and found xda developers.

I tried enabling USB debugging, checked for the latest update, rebooted etc.. it feels like i'm only getting, what... 25 frames per second at best? usually looks about 20 (in menus) when compared to my friends X10 mini, his looks as if it's easily scrolling up and down the drop down or popup menu with all of your apps in it, at 60 frames, (something above 30 anyway with NO lag whatsoever) and i have yet to flick my menu without seeing some degree of jitter while scrolling. I downloaded the Quadrant Benchmark and found I got 2002 Points, which when looked at in the graph.. there is no way the x10 mini could even scratch the DHD's score... so...

WHY does my phone feel sluggish? Is this normal or should I be concerned?

Thanks

-J
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottymeuk:
Here is what i did:

- Install ES Task Manager and add the widget and run it often. (Make sure to add the apps to the ignore list that you do not want to close)

- Remove as many widgets as possible from screen

- Install LauncherPro (It speeded things up a hell of alot for me)

- And most importantly, if your SD Card has a lot of stuff on it (Music etc) then delete as much as you can. The less on your SD Card the faster it will be.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
I've Tried that...

Hey, before I wrote this, I tried formatting the phone and did a factory reset, the menu STILL lags and jitters quite a bit. Surely this isn't supposed to happen on a fresh version of the phone with NO user junk on there? and I've heard that task kilelrs are bad for the system, usually doing more damage than good.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottymeuk:
Do you have anything on the SD Card?

I am not sure about that, the task manager on mine seems to be very good, i have stopped it from closing important apps which need to be open though.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
Hmmm

No i don't have much on the SD, olny the files that the phone adds itself, i tried removing all of my user data already, still no sucess.

Try the task manager if you wish. It works perfectly fine for me and i have been using it for months.

try to use another ROM, not sure if your service provider accept it.

i am sure it is a software added by your provider, or some settings needed.

i would go to:

- format the SD card - don't forget to back it up

- full reset my phone

still same problem ..... find a clean ROM and flash it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tranceonline:

I have 1 month old DHD, no lag so far on ordinary use.

But i notice 1 think that make it lag.

When i browse internet, HSDPA & 3g signal no problem, but when Edge signal, than lag start to happen, some time its hang few second!! & my DHD start heating warm under battery..

Even tho i click usb debug, stil lag.

Only way to make sure its not lag is to use only HSDPA & 3g signal while browse..

I use stock rom, no root.

Hey, thanks, but is it safe? i'm all for trying it out, as vodafone do put quite a lot of useless crap on their phones, however, is there any downsides like does it void my warranty, can it damage anything will my phone still work fully etc?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shellcourt:
Hi,

I experienced the same thing with my DHD too. I tried installing a task killer (Advanced Task Killer), and used to kill tasks manually. Still laggy menu. But when I tried activating the "Auto Kill" option, the performance greatly improved. No more laggy menu! My DHD works brilliantly now!!! Try looking for the auto-kill option in your task killer then activate it. Usuall you can set the frequency of the auto-kill option (after every, 30 mins, 1 hour, 2 hours, etc.) I set mine to auto kill every time the screen locks. Just do not forget to include in the exception list the apps you want to keep running.

Hope this helps.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
Hey, thanks for the reply, but i've already tried Advanced task kilelr on my first DHD. it didn't really help and i've heard it isn't very good for the stability of my phone, so i'm staying away from task killers etc.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cattleprod:
most likely its a app which causing the lag maybe it something in the vodafone bloatware or one you installed, as i find that setcpu widget can cause the home screen to lag badly to point of force losing it.that also happened on my se x10 i had, download os monitor to see whats causing the lag
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
Ok, i've got os monitor, my CPU is idling at 10% (+/- 7%) usage with only os monitor using up any CPU usage, However one thing... in the message tab, what does it mean when it says:

"Enter ICM: enter ICM MODE done!"

"Leave ICM: leave ICM MODE done!"

it's just repeating that evey three or so seconds.. is that normal?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cattleprod:
i don't know what ICM means but could be possiabilty to cause of lag as it seems to be in a loop, this ICM could be linked to rosie.apk(which is sense launcher.apk). may have to google that to see if anybody esle has this problem,the only option i could say to you is install a custom rom and yes installing custom roms does void warranty but if you ever did need to send back your phone for warranty or repair all hacking processes can be reverted back to stock and so won't lose warranty ;) and all the information and tools you will need on installing custom roms on desire HD can be found at top of the development section in the stickies. if you don't want to go down that road the is this RUU rom which is vodafone uk

http://xdafil.es/DesireHD/RUU/RUU_A...40 e_26.03.02.15_M3_release_155032_signed.exe

all you have to do is run the exe on pc and it will install it on to your phone but you lose all data but it will be fresh install maybe cure the problem. the only thing is this is older firmware and don't know if you have the newer firmware which 1.72.405.5 if you have this its a bit of a bum to downgrade. let us know an will ponit ya in right direction :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
What is a RUU rom? i was wondering because if i'm going to root it and all, i'd want to get a clean version of HTC sense, (what the sim free handsets come loaded with) because of vodaphone's ****ty bloatware which could be partly responsible, and i also don't like it :P
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex2g:
An RUU rom is just an official rom from HTC. Once you download it all you have to do is open the .exe file on your pc and follow the on screen instructions. However, as cattleprod said, if your rom is the newer "1.72.405.5" rom then it'll be a pain to downgrade.

To check what version your rom is, you can do the following (if memory serves me correct; as im running the custom cyanogen mod rom):

- From the homescreen press the menu key and go into settings.

- From settings scroll down and go into about phone.

- Then click software information and the rom you are running should be the first thing that appears on the screen.

If your not worried about warranty then I'd recommend flashing to a custom rom. The Cyanogen V6.1.3 rom for this phone is quite good. It runs without a problem and has more free ram then on a stock HTC Sense rom. On average with my experiences with the HTC Sense rom and the Cyanogen rom is that the HTC Sense rom, once you kill all apps, has about 320-350mb of free ram and the cyanogen rom has about 400-450mb. That's quite a large difference and may be the cure to the slowness of your phone.

Best of luck.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cattleprod:
RUU is rom update utility just what use to update firmware by pc instead of over the air(OTA)

and if you do root, s-off(means sercurity off and you can r/w to the system very handy :) ) and supercid (can install ANY firmware)

if you want no phone company bloatware install a WWE(world wide english) ruu

but really i would install a custom sense rom they alot better then the ruu

my favourite is RC mix custom sense rom but all four of them i really nice

so why not try cause you can always go back to stock :P
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jord-22:
Thanks both of you, that was very helpful, only problem is, my version is 2.2.1, and the Software number (is that the rom version?) is 1.75.161.2, how do i downgrade so that i can install a new rom?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cattleprod:
dam that's unlucky but it can be done :)

you need to read this thread an its only just been done so quite new but looks like it works but the RUU u will want to use is that vodafone RUU i posted earlier for and should be able to down grade.

[Droid 2 Global General] newk8600:
Yes all android phones have a bootloader...but the bootloader is good. What's not good is that Motorola decided to lock down the Droid 2 and all newer droids by only letting .zip's signed by Motorola's encryption key through the bootloader. So there is no way to change the kernel by swapping out Moto's modified kernel with a different one which is how the Droid 1 got Gingerbread and the D2, DX, D2G, DPro don't and probably won't until Moto cough's up the keys or someone hacks the bootloader.

Hey guys,

I took the advice of tons of people here to try the gfree method instead of the hboot or something, or the visionary permaroot.

the thing is, i did it my way and was too lazy to install ADB cuz it always failed and I don;t know how to use it.

I got a desire z- asian version

with a 1.2 version (NOT 1.7 that can't use gfree)

anyway

here's what i did

1) Installed Visionary to Temproot

2) got superuser for terminal emulator (ON PHONE)

3) chmod 777 the GFREE File on SDCARD

4) Tried to run it with the ./gfree -f command

5) IT SHOWS PERMISSION DENIED....WHYYY!???

WTF?

Anyway, if theres no o

ther way than ADBing this, I'll just go ahead and use the .ko file from the other rooting method..

THANKS GUYS
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
Ive seen this before, which files did you put on the sdcard, If you put the entire gfree02.zip file on your sdcard this is worng. You need to unzip the gfree02.zip file and place only the gfree file from the unzipped gfree02.zip file on the root of your sd card.

then re-run using this Code:

$ su
# cd /sdcard
# chmod 777 gfree
# ./gfree
# sync

i did everything as said, moved only the gfree file onto the sdcard.

thanks SO MUCH For the reply though. I REALLY APPRECIATE IT
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
The guide says not to use Visionary for temp root before using gfree, in fact it says to either turn it off (if set to auto-soft-root on boot) or uninstall it altogether.

the gfree method has you use the rage method to obtain temp root.
