[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Kgothey:
Hi,

I have a HTC Tilt. From couple of days, the screen appears to be blurred at some places. It typically forms a circular pattern. I've tried changing the screen. But the same problem continues with the new screen. Also, I've updated to windows mobile 6.1. The problem still persists. While I was updating the ROM, the screen functioned normally, i.e. displayed proper colors. So I believe that the screen is good. But as the update was complete, it went to the bad state again. I've tried pressing at points to see if the connection is loose. It isn't.

Please see the pictures attached and please please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks,

Kaustubh

[HTC Aria General] TybaltX1:
Alright this has been driving me mad for a while now and there doesn't seem to be an active thread with a solution to this.

Every once in a while when i boot up my phone will have problem loading widget. So i moved them back to phone for the ones that mattered and tried to select the widget again from the menu. Well they're not there any more. and even after a reinstall and reboot boot the programs don't show in the widgets section.

Has anyone had this issue and/or have a fix for it?

Thanks,

Urzu
[HTC Aria General] winsettr:
What ROM? When you set the install location to automatic, widgets should install the the phone by default (which is where all widgets need to be installed, or you get errors when loading the widget). To be safe, I would set the install location to phone, then reinstall the widgets and see where that gets you... This is of course assuming you are running a ROM that allows for this.

Where can I find these? HTC Sync isn't giving me them...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
You can try the pdanet app to install the right drivers, but Im really surprised that HTC Sync is not working. So go on the market and find pdanet app install it on your phone and then go to here: http://www.junefabrics.com/android/ and download the version for your computer, then hook up your phone to your computer and it should install the right drivers.

When you say that HTC Sync isn't giving them to you, what do you mean exactly ? Because HTC Sync includes a whole load of USB drivers, located in (for XP, anyway) \Program Files\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files.

well im loving it. havent rooted yet but cant wait. still doin the basic hardware stuff. But i hooked it uo to the computor everything well i can see the Ringtones. so i opened the SD and clicked and dragged my mp3 to it. said it ringer was assigned. unplugged reset the phone but cant locate it??? how do i pull the 2 MP3s i need to my Ringtone folder?? i youtubed it but nothing.. thanks in advance

SET RINGTONES!!!!

1. Set any of your songs as a phone ringtone:

•From the music player library, navigate to a song you want to use as a phone ringtone

•Touch & hold the song in the list to open the context menu

•Select Set as ringtone. The ringtone is set as your default incoming call ringtone

PS another "?"

is there any app or trick to get the screen to rotate upside down?

(ill explain my alarm clock has a headphone jack but the DEFY jack is at the top so in order to get it on the alarm it must upside down)

[Epic 4G General] running_the_dream:
I can accept that story or some other form it. I mean, it is out in Europe and has been for some time. And they have been dropping new phones with 2.2 for a while now. Why wouldn't these A-holes release it in the States. Can't imagine they have been testing the firmware for the past 7 months.
[Epic 4G General] abrcrmdl23:
I have the epic and our update got delayed too. I knew it had something to do some bs like this but why would they delay the epic update because it already has sprint 4g in it. They could be upgrading their wimax to lte or coming out with the bidder screen model with the super amoled plus screen and they will launch that with froyo and leave ours in the dust. I guess we will find out on the 3rd of feb at sprints special event
[Epic 4G General] tt c6:
I thought maybe Samsung was going to just skip 2.2 and release a 2.3 update because Samsung is already running 2.3 on their Nexus S.

I was actually going to buy an Epic tomorrow.

But, if this article is true, I am going to "devalue" Samsung and not buy their product.

F@ck them if they are making existing customers suffer because of their greed.
[Epic 4G General] jeremiah.rs:
Honestly, this is probably true. I know this sucks, but companies like this value their earnings more than their customers. Those of us who have been eagerly awaiting Froyo are in the minority, and they know that most of the people who own these devices couldn't care less about it.

This will probably be the last Samsung phone that I will ever buy, I'd rather give my money to a company which values their customers and provides customers with timely information regarding updates and the like.
[Epic 4G General] jimmyz:
This reminds me of the initial warnings about previous samsung devices and the lack of updates when the epic first came out. Although this is the best sprint phone I have owned to date I still wonder if I should have taken those warnings a little more seriously!
[Epic 4G General] running_the_dream:
Yes I heard complaints in the past about Samsung's poor phone support but I still got the Epic. Mostly because my old phone (HTC Touch) died and it was going to cost $100 for a replacement (thanks lame Sprint insurance). So I just decided to get a new phone and compared to the Evo, the Epic seemed like the much better option. After experiencing Samsung's greed and lack of support for their existing products, I'm going back to HTC next go round.
[Epic 4G General] Eazail70x7:
Let's kill! :)
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Agree. This most likely would've been the last Samsung phone I bought. This pretty much seals the deal.
[Epic 4G General] HeXeD:
For my next phone I'm going to do exactly what I did with this phone. Find out what the best phone is.. check the phones out.. and go with the one that is the best. Right now, even after the Evo 4G Shift was released, the Epic and other Galaxy S phones are still the best phone. I have friends with the Evo, Droid X, MyTouch.. and I can safely say that I have the best phone. Those phones have 2.2, but I wouldn't THINK about switching to them. Do I want 2.2? Of course. I have it now thanks to custom roms but of course it kinda aggravates me that there is no official release of 2.2 yet. But that is ok. If I had a choice between a laptop with a Intel i3 running Windows 7 and a Intel i7 running Windows Vista (or even XP), I would take the i7.

In my opinion, company tactics will forever aggravate us users. Throwing around other company names like HTC as the company that will be this "knight in shining armor" will only dissappoint you in the future. I have had 3 HTC phones previously and without a doubt, I can say that they are definitely not beyond screwing their customers over. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it is right, but I'm saying that it is not uncommon. The day that these companies become non-profit organizations is the day you will see them put customers first.. I'm not holding my breath.

[Epic 4G General] running_the_dream:
As Lee Corso would say, 'not so fast my friend.' Before I scooped my Epic, I had the HTC Touch (the original way old Vogue) and the ppc6700 (the silver brick) before that. I never had any issues with software other than crappy windows mobile but when it came to updates and/or support, I was happy. Hardware was on point as well. Samsung Galaxy has been a major disappointment for me having owner various Samsung products and knowing that their hardware is excellent. Still think the Epic is terrific. Just disappointed at all the troubles that customers have experienced across the entire Galaxy lineup.

Nexus S reboot problem:

User's post from Slashdot story:

Samsung's official response to CNET's query about the rumor:
[Epic 4G General] tuttjs:
Just to add to this conversation --> Just got off a chat with Sprint and I kept asking them about Froyo for the Epic. Everytime I mentioned it, the Sprint rep would direct me to Samsung and it's their fault. I think they got mad that I kept asking and pushing the subject, that they said they could no longer help me on the chat and gave me Samsung's number to call.

Looking at Samsung's facebook account, there a bunch of people complaining about this issue. Hopefully all this pressure will make Samsung cave in. *crosses fingers*
[Epic 4G General] h2g2:
I call bull****.

Having come from the Crackberry world, this sort of stuff happens all the time. A supposed "reliable source" will leak some sort of story, the fringe enthusiast sites get wind of it and generates chatter and it eventually gets picked up by a naive journalist with a lazy editor and it gets put up as "legit" news which then causes a feedback loop which causes the internet to explore.

The example that comes to mind is the OS 4.7.0.113 update for the Blackberry Storm 9530 on Verizon, a leaked OS that "reliable sources" claimed was going to be the next official update but wasn't. It made it to PC World as well:

http://www.pcworld.com/article/163056/blackberry_storm_to_get_firmware_update.html

And it was 100% bull****. So I wouldn't give this rumor much credence.

The explanation of not wanting to take the wind out of the sails of the Vibrant 4G is irrelevant to other Galaxy S models where there is no similar Osbourne effect - such as with the Epic 4G.

My guess is that the actual explanation is much more mundane. Given the problem with Froyo bricking Vibrants, I would bet dollars to donuts that Samsung got super gunshy and their slow approach to Froyo updates to smaller markets is nothing more than a widespread, low-risk beta test to make sure their code is up to snuff before risking releasing an unstable update to the larger, litigious American Galaxy S userbases.

I've looked at a few guides and can't seem to do it myself, so I was wondering if someone might be able to help me dualboot 2.2.1 and 2.1 on my Xperia. I've gotten 2.2.1 to run on my phone and 2.1 alone, but when I follow the guides to dualboot they don't seems to work for me. Right now I'm running 2.1 firmware 2.0.2.A.0.24 with the Eminence rom.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] chiefy009:
Hi, Try searching the forum using the search function.

Dual boot is not used on 2.2 or custom 2.1, you now need to get the xrecovery menu on your phone and switch between firmwares using that.

That will tell you all you need to know
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] whatsaqazza:
I've seen forums on dualbooting before, not just using xrecovery. Pretty much you regularly boot into 2.2 and then if you want press any button at the start up screen and it'll go to 2.1, but it doesn't need to go to in xrecovery menu. I've also seen a how to on it, I can't find the link right now, but it was called "how to dualboot for noobs", pretty much.
