hi. THIS IS NOT TOUCHXPERIENCE

everything that he's released in these last 2 months has not been touchxperience and have been freely distributed to anyone with a wp7 device...

secondly, touchxperience was a beta test for donationware and the program was buggy in its first 2 iterations. The public touchxperience runs much better and is freely available.

As for the non sideloading tool that's alright too...I want to see the options that homebrew has
[G Tablet Accessories] avfreak4ever:
For anyone here looking to buy the near-pefect + inexpensive leather case for the G-Tablet check out the video at youtube titled "review of a kindle DX case for the Viewsonic G Tablet", which does a very good job of showcasing it.

I bought one myself and i am very/very pleased with it; It fits like a glove, looks very nice, sturdy and expensive and offers very good protection.

For $19.21 plus shipping from Amazon.com it's a best-buy for leather covers for the G Tablet and the name of the manufacturer is CaseCrown.
[G Tablet Accessories] jconway1968:
Same here... Excellent case for the money...
[G Tablet Accessories] avfreak4ever:
I was just going to delete my post because, dumb me, there is already a thread on this leather case under "My review of the Kindle Leather Case" by S2W, with a link for his video at youtube.

Actually i would like to thank S2W for helping me find this particular leather case and for the money he saved me !
[G Tablet Accessories] rob_z11:
I got the Case, but I am not too happy with it since one or two corner doesn't fit well.
[G Tablet Accessories] avfreak4ever:
just out of curiosity, which corner are you reffering to ? Is it the one over the power switch ?

The reason i'm asking is because that was the only leather tab that almost blocked the very edge of the switch on my G-Tablet, almost but not quite...

I found that this leather case fits tightly around the G-Tablet and yet not in any way that impeded me from accessing any switches and controls and, as i expected, i wish the outside leather tab that holds the front cover offered a means to secure it out of the way and from hanging in front of the screen when opened; To fix that i am thinking of attaching a small, nearly imperceptible piece of black velcro to its back and to the back of the case so that i could attach the tab to the back of the case when in use.
[G Tablet Accessories] rob_z11:
Yes, that's what I have observed that both my leather tabs are trying to come out when I am using my tab.

I am going to do exactly what you are describing to use black velcro to secure the back, so I don't have to worry about my kids abusing it.
[Wildfire General] thevolatile1:
my first post on the forum, so far xda has been a great source of information & tips for me, so, a big thanks to everyone here...

now, onto my project, the htc wildfire...

i've been given this as a dead unit as somebody had attempted to install a non-android operating system to it.. so far i have managed to revive the handset & successfully installed a working firmware, but, the remaining problem is a completely blanked imei number.. i.e all zeros... boo hoo indeed...

so, i need to get the imei off the serial sticker into the board again. i know there's gonna be people saying.. ahhh you need to use smti or riff or whatever box, but that isn't my way and i aint about to trash a bundle of cash on a one off thing.. i've jtag'd plenty of things before without buying anything other than the occasional components here & there.. i prefer to tamper & recycle bits i already have.

to kick this off i've stripped the wildfire & photographed the pcb & tagged all the jtag points i think i'm gonna need, aswell as a pinout of a standard 20pin header - i've already got buffered & un-buffered jtags to use so my last problems here are making the connections to the pcb - very very tricky soldering or make a pogo style plug & then physically dumping the relevant area of memory, editing the imei data & putting back into the board. its no small order i know, but hey, its cost me nothing & i like to have a go - its more of a hobby thing..

i'm sure somebody out there's already had a go at this without buying those expensive boxes. so anybody wanna share there tips & knowledge ???

i will add to this thread as & when i make some more progress... next few days i expect...

[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
Random pont could the msm 7225 be replaced with a 7227 or snapdragon
[Wildfire General] thevolatile1:
..i couldn't tell you tbh,, your first check there would be to look at the pinout of both chips & see if they match.. to do the swap (if its even possible) you would of course need specialist tools as its a bga chip - i.e tiny balls of solder underneath the body of the thing..
[Wildfire General] Zeeko:
You don't want to see my facial expression to the thought of that!
[Wildfire General] thevolatile1:
,,,well it's been a while.. after been ill for a while & hospitalized (grr) i may actually get round to some more wildfire tampering..

i've dug my gear out & had another look.. so far i have manufactured myself a fresh lpt wiggler style jtag unit since the one i previously used to tamper sat & cable & modems & xboxs etc wasn't working correctly - didnt have sufficient lines !!! it's a bit of a frankenstein since i've mounted all the components thru a piece of card & housed it inside an old cotton bud plastic box.. lol.. i'll post up a pic of the monser soon as i find my sdcard reader... but hey.. it works..

my efforts so far using ocr commander - settings are lpt - wiggler @380khz, arm926t. a scan of the jtag chain reveals dev count 1, ir length 4, id code c01b30e1.

i've also attacked it with h-jtag which gave me a completely different id code of 0x7e667fdf - i never rated h-jtag so i'm disregarding that & deleting the prog from my lappy!

state of play now - i have uninterupted jtag access with no errors thru ocd but im now brickwalled !! can anybody recommend a decent jtag utility program that will allow me to dump the all important portion of the memory holding the imei data & does anybody have a clue at what location that data is held once i get it out of the phone.. i hate sitting & rummaging through page after page in winhex... comments & clue gratefully welcomed..
[Wildfire General] thevolatile1:
,,oh,, before somebody points out - i know the msm7225 fitted in the wildfire is arm 1136 instruction v6.. but ocd read it all good as arm 926.. im guessing they use same instruction set or that the differences are so negligible that it just doesnt care... ;)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
So... long story short, I bricked my Nexus One. There is no LED while charging and the phone doesn't boot. I figured if I replace the motherboard, the phone will start functioning again.

From my understanding, HTC charges $196 to replace this piece, which is quite expensive considering I paid $175 for this Nexus. But I found a part on eBay which I think is the motherboard, but I want to make sure before I purchase it.

Attached is the link:

I would appreciate if anybody can confirm that this is the motherboard and if it will resurrect my phone.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
That's just the flex cable NOT the mother board.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
Do you know where I can source the motherboard?

I might try buzzing HTC tomorrow for a warranty repair (or swap) for a different issue with the phone. Maybe I can escalate it to the proper person if they give me any problems.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
I have searched almost everywhere for it; and it's nowhere to be found.

My options remain:

1) Hope HTC replaces my Nexus for another issue

2) Have HTC replace my motherboard for $196

3) Replace it myself, assuming I can source one

4) JTAG it back to life

5) Sell it in its current state
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mokurex:
Do you mind sharing the story of how you bricked it? I'm really interested.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wang1404:
google a method to un brick it. One hacker actually did that already. It might help you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
I unrooted the phone and started proceeding with the respective steps. I just flashed CW recovery and was using it to flash gapps, CM, and a radio image. I then rebooted the phone, but it never turned on.

Now, I have a beautiful non-functioning Nexus One! Does not boot at all, no LED when hooking up to A/C, nothing...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
Would you mind sharing the link? The only method, from my understanding, that will un brick the phone is jTAG it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wang1404:
Well I read the article long ago and don't remember exactly what the name of it is. But one hacker used his usb cable to trick his nexus one to wake up and it was successful.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
Update: I called HTC and mentioned a completely unrelated issue, which was a small speck of dust under the screen. I chose the swap option and didn't mention the phone didn't turn on, or was bricked. I just checked the tracking update and it says "service is completed." Checked my card; nothing was charged.

GO HTC! They are the absolute best!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrmec:
u probably bricked it with the radio update.. did you check the MD5 checksum before u flashed it? And was it even a proper Radio?

You need to be very careful while flashing a radio... it's like flashing a BIOS on a PC.

You should flash it through fastboot and not recovery, it's safer.

Just so you know when you try to do it again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyFeet:
Yeah, I think you're right. It probably bricked while flashing the radio. I will not attempt to do this again or will be extremely careful next time...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vedolino:
HI everyone,

I bought a HTC HD2 some days ago, and there was win mobile 6.5 and android 2.2 installed. THere were many problem on the Android OS, it was very slow, the auto-rotate function didnt work, the "water scale" didnt also work correctly etc. Win Mobile seemed to work properly...

Today, I installed android 2.2 on my storage card and everything is working fine so far. Of course, WIN MOBILE is on my phones memory. Before installing it, the phone had problems with the flashlight (dual flash), simply, it did not work. Now, it is also not working, neither under WIN Mobile nor ANDROID.

How can I check that it is a hardware failure ? Or maybe its ROM or something ?

Thank you ;)

Hi There

I'm not aware of any "diagnostics" modes to test hardware on the device but the first thing I would do from within Winmo is install a Torch App and try and use the torch, if the Torch app initialises the flash on the back of the phone then you know it's a OS fault whereas, if it doesn't you know it's a hardware fault with the flash module itself on the phone

Here's a link to TorchButton :)

Do not unpack (unzip, unRAR) the file. Just copy it to your phone (or SD card). Use the phone's file explorer and find the file. click on it, and it will install.

.cab files are cabinet files, they pack other files inside them, just like zip files - but they are used in both Windows (the computer o/s) and the WinMo o/s as a unpack and install file (obviously the file should only be run in the desired o/s).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vedolino:

[Droid 2 Global General] imaudi5000:
ok so my phone wont vibrate when i get a new text message. it may rarely work but more often than not it does nothing.

i have it set to 'vibrate only in silent mode' and then i switch it "vibrate" either thru the lock screen slider or using the volume keys but nothing works.

anyone else have this issue? fix?

is there a setting or way to make it have a separate vibrate and silent mode? like "ringer" "vibrate" "silent"
[Droid 2 Global General] Pulverizer:
Can you check at "Text Messaging - (Menu Key Touch) - Message Settings -

Notification Settings - Virbrate Option"

I checked this option and it works perfectly.

Sound setting - Vibrate mode effects only about call mode.

Message Sound and Vibration mode works separately.
[Droid 2 Global General] imaudi5000:
hmm thanks but thats not what i want. i dont want it to vibrate and play the sound. i just want it to vibrate when its in vibrate mode....
[Droid 2 Global General] newk8600:
Did you try the "only when silent" setting within the text messages>settings>Vibrate? To me that means it should only vibrate but who knows if that's how it actually works.

(I feel embarrassed that I've had my D2 since September and never realized that's why my texts never vibrated. I just thought I had gotten used to the vibration I never felt it. lol)
[Droid 2 Global General] JMercurin:
I used to had the same problem and the solution that work for me was downloading this app called "VIBRATION WIDGET".. You just search for it on the market (i cant post links for now)

This is a widget that when you activate it pops up a window that ask you to turn on the vibration (notifications, calls, messages, etc) just click YES/ACTIVATE and there you have it. Problem solved

If I flash over the desire hd Rom to my flashed Evo will it mess up anything setting on my phone or my picture messaging
[EVO 4G General] deathsled:
MMS is probably the only thing you will need to set back up, it won't mess with the rest of your "flash" to cricket.

download APN Backup and Restore from the market and back up your apns first. Then once you flash any rom use the same program to restore the back up. That will solve MMS for you (also remember to set mms max size to 500k).

Thanks cause I heard I couldn't use any roms that wasn't Cricket evo roms.

You can use whatever rom you want honestly, it's just that some features may or may not work correctly. It's usually voicemail and mms that are the problem children.
