[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejogid:
Whilst attempting to install MIUI 1.14 I got an error that the zip was invalid or something along those lines. I then rebooted but the Desire got stuck in a boot loop. After wiping the phone and formatting the SD card it booted fine, however the SD card is still not recognised, ADB doesn't work and the USB debugging icon keeps coming up as though it keeps getting reconnected. When I try to mount it in recovery, I get:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0 (no such file or directory)

and

E:Can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/

Any help much appreciated.

Oh, and the memory card works fine on an old Hero I have lying around so the problem isn't there. Is there anyway I can restore it to stock over USB? It boots fine and is recognised in fastboot, as well as showing up in device manager.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rastaman-FB:
forget the hero

the problem IS the sdcard if recovery cannot mount it as well as the rom

these are two seperate os's

if the zip file was not intact then it would point to there being sdcard corruption and the bootloop will also happen due to faulty SD

If i were you i would put it in a card reader and use h2testw to check the integrity of the card

if that is successful then format the card from the device itself in settings>sdcard & storage
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejogid:
Thanks for the advice. I don't currently have a micro SD card reader (only an SD card one), although I can get one tomorrow fairly easily.

However, given I formatted the card from the Hero's recovery would it not make more sense to go straight to a new SD card? I might be able to borrow one to confirm, regardless. Oh, and how is the ADB issue likely to tie into all of this?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcraig:
Hey guys, I just updated my Streak to 2.2 using the QDL Tools. I used PC Suite to backup my data before I made the transition to 2.2. But I'm unable to find a work around to restore that date. I've lost all contacts/media and what not. Anyone have any ideas?

Also if you have any tips/programs/updates I should get for my Streak, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

MC

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Black.Heart:
Hey, you probably heard that WP7 has been ported on HD2.

Well, that's a great start. But I think we can try it out... Even it would be a lot buggy or slow or anything else... I think if we contact DFT (Dark Forces Team) they might help us out... I know it's near impossible (because of our ARMv6 CPU. == WP7 needs an ARMv7 CPU which HD2 has it.) But it's not impossible completely... Let's do something about it... What do you say devs?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ckama33:
I'm just waiting for the hackers team is to discuss about this. Because I am only new person in the world PHONE.

im will suporter to u all
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] user212:
Come on ,it will be great to run wp7 on topaz
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Desert Storm:
Oh golly, because you demanding it will sure make them motivated.

When you say "Lets do something" you must mean, "I cant do it, can you do it for me?". Why not learn reverse engineering, and then doing something yourself? Because realy, if you want dev's to do all the work for you, you obviously should stick to the Windows-GUI manipulation level, doubt being spoof-feed will help you.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Black.Heart:
First of all, I don't see any reason to answer you directly. In second, I'm a developer but can't do it alone. I'm asking for help. So just keep learning things. You may someday understand what I was asking for.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ottoman96:
Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a port for the Topaz, and I'd probly try it out... But I'm looking forward to the cracking of WP7 on WP7 phones so that I can upgrade to a new phone and not be stuck with that horrible start screen :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Desert Storm:
I know you have some developing skills, although I dont know if it goes beyond changing the registry and gui-manipulation, but the system-level developers are unlikely to port the Windows 7 to the Topaz, mainly because its a old device now, outdated and slow.

(And I know that you've got some knowledge because I used eclipse for few days, good ROM)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Black.Heart:
I appreciate that... But as I mentioned above, it's near impossible... Not completely. Your'e right... Topaz has ARMv6 processor... WP7 requires ARMv7. But i'm talking about experiencing it on Topaz... By the way, I agree with oldness of Topaz... I'm gonna buy a Desire HD :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] hoosbude:
It's wishfull thinking and never going to happen. The best us topaz owners can expect to get for our outdated phones is a 100% working Android.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Zimaia:
And wouldn't that be great!!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] joefrank:
That ain't true I find that the ui from wp7 is lite and simple. This can easily be ported to our devices with a little magic. But The part of windows live games or xbox live is the part that our devices cant handle. Our devices aren't old they where made cheap by htc and att to cover some sectors of the market. But our devices could have been easily been made with the same stuff as hd2, as few months passed since each launched.

The ui is simpler than ours and faster I think it could be done......just that I need to finish studying by then to make this. And I don't think of waiting is another great idea. As we are shadowed by what could have been if we had a twin processor to hd2's. But, we bought this and I find it great!

And please respect each other!!!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mahra:
I think it's NOT possible because of hardware requirements.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] joefrank:
our device was made of tinking on this.. As I read before it was tought to be ported in form of an upgrade. But it was left in the clouds. And our device have the custom buttons on a new device like android and wp7. Ram can't be a prob. If the UI was made for speed and simplicity. Just the xbox live games won't run properly.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Black.Heart:
I agree... But no one is taking TD2 seriously. Because there are at least 2 similar devices (TP2, THD) no one is focusing on TD2. That's why we don't see any salient improvement on Android development. HD2 devs focused on it and made the progress finished soon. I think the best way we can do right now, is contacting Cotulla from DFT. He could help me and other devs. I just don't know how to contact him!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] joefrank:
AH man! I've been focussing on another site. WWW.htc-pure.com, which I am a moderator. And for years I've been here quietly. but I think I will try to move here to help. Lets see what I can do.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mahra:
wp7 requires ARMv7 instruction set on cpu. but topaz is just ARMv6 i think. that's why I think it's not possible ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] link68759:
Moreover, why would you want WP7? The only thing it has going for it is that it runs smoothly and doesn't crash, which it would NOT do if someone did manage to port it. Better off building skins over 6.5.x; that way you could at least retain functionality...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] yoppie79:
I am waiting, good luck man
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] stirkac:
actually, hd2 had devices that only need to be (partially) reverse-engeneered. hell some libs etc worked directly from Desire, cotulla took half of its radio SW to get rmnet data working and ...HD7...well it's hd2 without hardware buttons!...

magldr is child's play and development was over in 2 months but they kept it testing for that time to see how phone will respond to tottaly diffrent os.

now find something like that for Touch(something).

htc was lazy with hardware at the time and hackers took advantage of that.

but these devices nature is so much different that every piece of system would have to be homebrew-and devs struggle with android for a long time with sources and inch from their nose. imagine rewriting even basic parts of kernel to support armv6 without any proper source. i truly can't imagine wp7 being done...

even with few developers, reasonable timeframe would be over year or two!

i own 3 htc phones and one td2 just for fun of it, to see evolution of htc's over the years.. go buy yourself hd2 if you really wish to hack the hell out of your phone. they go really cheap - around $200 - and save yourself time :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Black.Heart:
I agree. I'm moving to iPhone 4 or Sensation or EVO 3D...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Desert Storm:
I love the "This can easily be ported to our devices with a little magic."

[Android Software Development] DrSadistic:
Before I begin, I will say that I'm not a developer, nor will I ever claim to be. That said, I have a fantastic idea for an app and would love to see it become a reality. I'm looking to build an app similar in many ways to Zedge, or other ringtone/mp3 apps. I need an app that will be able to connect to a database or mp3 files that can be updated without actually updating the app. Basically, once the app itself is built, I'd rather not have to change it.

The ultimate goal is to create an app that handles music files such as mp3's, and allow the user to browse by artist, genre, or song title, then listen, download, or share their selections. I'd also love to integrate a feature that would allow users to set their downloaded files as a ringtone/notification within the app, similar to Zedge.

I do understand that their are a million ringtone/mp3 apps out there, but I assure you, the developer community that my idea is totally unique. I don't have the knowledge to build the app itself, but I do have all the graphics for the app and I am a music editor by trade. If someone would like to help out on this project, or atleast point me in the right direct, I would be grateful.

Thank you.

I have to have my tablet either repaired or replaced. Has anyone does this??

I am trying to find out how long it takes, and was it a new tablet or a refurb?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcgabriel:
I haven't actually seen anybody report doing this - most people who had early issues just brought their tablets back to the retailer. Now that we're past return period for a bunch of us, I guess somebody's going to have to figure out how the process works. :)

I have a broken G Tab right now (mini-USB port connector fell off the mainboard) so I'd be curious to hear what you learn. I bought another tablet, but if you can get it warranty-repaired that would be a nice option.

Nice on the phone, but not helpful in the end. Sent my Gtablet to fix broken glass top, and they ended up sending it back to me without replacing it or fixing it in any way. They said it wasn't covered by the warranty.

Still looking for a way to replace it myself.. Tablet works, just hard to see anything with all the cracks everywhere in the glass.

... You can imagine what I see when look at the Viewsonic and G-tablet intro screen upon boot up.... All cyan with weird vertical lines encircled with the logos...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Playdo:
I've had a good search and this problem's come up quite a few times but I haven't found a working solution. To answer/reject calls the Desire requires a vertical swipe. This obviously causes problems when removing from a pocket. First off an F- for HTC in Product Design. You should test your products before producing them!

Ok, so what is the best solution? I don't understand the technology well, so I'm not looking for any complicated solutions - ideally I'd like a tested app. Can anyone recommend one from experience? Otherwise can anyone recommend another solution, other than orientating or holding the phone a certain way? Everyone's obviously in the same boat here. Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alegis:
It's a capacitive screen.

You shouldn't be sliding the screen even if the screen slides against your pants. Don't put your fingers on the screen when taking it out.

It's the simple answer you don't want, but you're probably not finding any other results because it is that simple.

Slide to answer is similar to slide to unlock however, so you might have more luck finding workarounds that change the unlock mechanism and see if they happen to mention ways to change slide to answer.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel.mitran:
When I used Sense ROM (switch to Oxygen some time ago) I used WidgetLocker with the option to hide an incoming call activated. I basically added an vanilla style slider (slide to right to unlock) over HTC's slide down to answer.

Is not a perfect solution because

- the program it's not free

- you have to swipe twice (once to right, once down) to answer a call

But it saved me a lot of trouble with answering too soon or rejecting calls

You could also try Incoming Call Plus, I didn't had the chance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Playdo:
I hope for mankind's sake that you are not a designer. Ps it occurs too when removing it from a slide-in case, where my fingers have no connection with the screen.

@dboy - is it simple a matter of installing an app and then you have 'slide right to unlock' and it won't install anything else on the phone?

Has anyone tested Incoming Call Plus?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel.mitran:
You install the apk and you get an alternative lockscreen that, among others, features slide right to unlocked on incoming call.

It has many other options: place any widget on lock screen, unlock by trackpad, custom sliders, show/hide notification bar, allow/disallow interactions on lock screen

Like any other market purchase you have 15 minute to decide if you want to keep it or click refund.

I use Lookout to make sure no malware lands on my phone, and so far I had no problems, it only changes my lockscreen.
