[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyVII:
wanted to post the same...

... question...

my dhd stock newest OTA update also doesnt ask which maps application should be startet.

it just opens "locations" instead of asking.

thanks for the workaround over the contact list, works fine ;=) but isn't a solution...

best regards,

mike
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b6rt:
Any update for this problem ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyVII:
searching as you are

sorry, just a few days ago i searched google again.

no solution found :=)

if you find one, please share it :)
[HD2 General] omar302:
I recently noticed that when I remover the battery for more than a minute, the clock (after starting up) would be late. The more I leave the battery out, the more the battery will be late. I recently tried several Android NAND roms & WP7. I have returned back to WM.

I don't remeber noticing this before, I have Hard-Reset the phone, re-flashed, HSPL, Task29, and still the same.

Is it my HD2 only? a Hardware problem (covered by warranty)? Or is it something normal?

Thanks for any feedback.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
The internal battery on the board of your HD2 has run dry. You can send it back to HTC to get it repaired...but really all it does is run the internal clock, so it's not a huge deal if you can stand resetting the clock when restart your phone.
[HD2 General] omar302:
I was suspecting this, as I faced it with my Tornado. But I didn't read about any user with an HD2 who complained about it.

Any idea where I can buy one to try to replace myself?
[HD2 General] Silberpfeil3110:
It's not possible to replace it, unless you buy a new phone, because it's not really a battery, it's more like a small chip and its fix integrated on the motherboard. There's no way to change it without buying a new motherboard. I would say, this problem is not big enough to pay so much for it. And maybe you could think about it, if it's necessary to remove the battery. Unless you want to replace the SIM Card you don't have to. SD-Card Slot is not under the battery and for rebooting you have a reset button, and if you have to flash your phone, you have to set up everything so it's not a problem to also set up your time ^.^

Best regards
[HD2 General] omar302:
Is it something that should be covered under warranty?

I baught my HD2 from Clove.co.uk from 1 year back & at the time, warranty used to be 2 years from purchase.

Also, if it is a problem of the Inernal Battery, wouldn't the time reset to ROM date & time? My problem is that the time actualy goes back.

For example, it is 9:15pm & I remove the battery for 1 minute, the phone starts & time is 9:11pm. The more the battery is out, the more the time will be back.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
Yeah I have this problem too! *feels less alone*

I noticed this problem after the first time I ran an Android build from SD, but that was probably coincidence...

I'm not really into sending it to warranty, my HD2 works great and sometimes they come from warranty worse than they go...
[HD2 General] omar302:
Now that you mentioned it, I did notice this problem after one of the Android builds from SD. Don't remeber which.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
I'm starting to think that it is related... Another guy complains about something similar after using Android SD...
[HD2 General] Silberpfeil3110:
Yes... Normally it should reset it.

But if you say it's only one year old, there's another hardware problem because such a battery has a lifetime from approximately 2 years.

Maybe - or better they must - will change it under the warranty conditions.

And I don't think that it has something to do with AD SD builds. I also used them for a long time and never encountered something like this.
[HD2 General] nasos79:
Hello there.

I have the same problem with my HD2, which runs on a cooked ROM.

What I have noticed is that it actually goes back to the date and time of it's last boot (in fact the time and date SET after the last boot, since it changes and I have to reset it every time, by syncing or manually), regardless of the way the reboot was done. It is a little strange I guess...

Just thought to add this little piece of information.

Oh, and my phone is also quite "young", I have it for less than a year (don't remember the exact date of purchase).
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
Interesting. I was about to post a similar issue.

I had been using (SD) Android for about 3 weeks continuously. Had a crash and rebooted. I have some problems in Android now following this (corrupt Data.img I think) so booted back into WinMO and found the date was now 2nd Feb 2010 and some random time!

Reset the time and restarted and for some reason it refuses to recognise we are in BST (and I can't see how to change it to GMT +BST)

Same date/time showed when I booted into Android (doesn't seem to be getting the correct details from Network?)

Slightly better after a few reboots so that now everytime I reboot with a battery pull it is setting an older time (but correct date).
[HD2 General] stevemilw:
I have the same issue using WP7. The time changes backk like 6 hours or so to a completely random time.

And the annoying thing is that the phone seems to think its the right time, and theres no way to 'force' and automatic time update on its self, so i have to disable automatic update and enter the correct time manually!
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
That's the thing that gets me most - you can move between time zones and the phone gets the local time from the Network operator, but will not "check" if it is wrong by so much....:confused:
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
It must be the internal battery thingumijiggy.

Just confirmed that it only happens after a battery pull.
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
as long as no one has posted a theory yet, i'm gonna give it a shot! :D

i think the phone might have TWO regions of memory for storing the current date/time:

1. a "volatile" one (good as long as battery is present)

2. and another "non-volatile" one (survives between battery pulls)

my theory is, WM6.5 ROMs have something hidden in them that allows the date/time to be (periodically?) written to the non-volatile region in case the battery is pulled, following which the system might need to recall the last reliable date/time, as opposed to resetting to an arbitrary default date/time.

the volatile region is good as long as the battery isn't removed. the volatile region is initialized by the non-volatile region and is subsequently kept updated by the RTC (real time clock) chip, whether or not an OS is running (like android or WM or WP7).

but perhaps the little piece of logic that updates the non-volatile region is somehow absent in our android builds? :eek:
[HD2 General] ShironLive:
I have the same problem, and i just use clocksync a free app from market. The app sync the time every time you reboot your phone.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
I also use clocksync in android. But it doesn't solve the problem... :S
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Lesiroth:
Hello,

I'm not really sure if anyone encountered this before..

Suddenly today in the morning, I notice my Milestone's touchscreen is acting up.

I can't reach the menu button at the bottom of the screen. It always chooses Phone or Web Browser button instead :/

I use search to get to Dev Tools and Pointer Locations, and I realize there's a segment, about 1 third of the touchscreen, in the middle, unresponsive to touch.

I tried cleaning the screen, clearing cache, rebooting, it made it work temporarily, but then it returned again. I changed to stock 2.1 SBF, still no change. And now, its stuck in this state, I can't get it to work even temporarily..

I really dont want to send it to Customer Service, is there anyway to solve this?

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] neo300400:
Same with me, i can't reach from menu in a bottom side to upper side, maybe 10mm dead space + 7mm right side from bottom side to upper side.

Please help me!!

Sorry my english is not good
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] bietoff0728:
It happen to me last 2 weeks while helping out a friend's Milestone. After i flashed a kernel, the whole screen is not working. Trying to flash back to stock ROM,custom ROM,etc but still the same.

By accident i press and hold both BACK key(the bottom left) and SEARCH key( bottom right) and ON the phone. I let go of the the two,BACK and SEARCH key after the phone is completely ON. To my surprise, it works!!! Until now the phone has no problem with the touchscreen.

I hope you guys can try this out or is it an coincidence,I don't know..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] neo300400:
thanks but no fix it for my phone :confused::confused:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jtnw:
I had the same problem sometime last year, which I eventually fixed by clearing cache partition and rebooting a bunch of times.

Unfortunately, the problem re-appeared today. So far, rebooting and clearing cache hasn't worked.

By any chance, have any of you installed the WiiMote Controller App? I was convinced that was what was doing it to my phone. (maybe not, as I never re-installed it though)

I'm about to flash the sbf file, but as Lesiroth said, that might not work :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] haroldz123:
i believe u r having GHOST TOUCHSCREEN syndrome

my touchscreen sometime do not response to my touch

it just went berserk!

the notification bar keep sliding up and down

if im in the menu, it goes up and down too!

sometime i cant unlock the screen bcos it do not respon

however, some chinese users found that this could be due to ripped/ torn ribbon

just google it

it is widely reported too!:eek:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jtnw:
I just want to say that I have fixed my Droid's touchscreen problem (or maybe it will re-appear in another six months).

Anyway, I just set the screen brightness to max and screen timeout to 30min and let the battery drain. I took the battery out for a second and then charged the phone with the USB that came with the phone over the wall socket.

I think the USB wire is the culprit (I was using a BB one for a while).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] haroldz123:
my problem seemed to be disappeared after i soft reset n use stock rom

i tot launcher pro was the culprit but it is not

so i re-install LP n use for 1 day

d only problem i had was when i went for a jog, i tucked it on my waist (no in the pocket).

after that the screen stop working at all, i have to reboot by taking the battery a few time.

after 30 min or more, the problem was gone.

tis could be due to the stress applied to the screen when im joggin (as it it as "touched" while im jogging).

however, i removed beautiful widget n its addon too, dat could the source of the problem as well.

SOLUTION: soft reset, use stock rom / launcher for 1 day

if it still persist, it could a hardware problem
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Lesiroth:
I am glad that you solved your problem. Unfortuntely the past week or so has been a really busy time for me, I could not focus on this problem. I will try your solution, although I still think it is a broken digitizer on my part.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] deygun:
maybe the problem is the digitizer..

try to change rom or wipe it first..

if the problem still persist i think its the digitizer..

use only the original charger..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] poythegreat:
OMFG that worked on my phone!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------

A segment of my phone covering the home button went dead two weeks ago.. :confused: :confused: and duuuuude did this work!! :eek: :eek: its super smooth as ever!!! thanks a ton!! :D :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] silverslasher:
Mine did the same exact thing! The entire strip from the home button to the top of the screen no longer works!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mhamini:
ive the same problem, and i believe that's because of moisture. because every time when its raining except the problem with right side of screen im not even able to use the phone touch screen doesn't work at all and the phone just does something by itself! this issue started with small vertical bar from right side of screen and it growing everyday now im not able to use right side of screen till home button.

i want to know do i have to replace touchscreen or i can fix it with something to absorb humidity?

thanks in advance :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pigrew:
Hi,

I've been having a problem where my phone is restarting itself intermittently while I use the wireless network at my school (Purdue). I've tried both WPA and WPA2 (the school provides networks for both) and seen problems with both. The networks are the "enterprise 802.1x" version which requests a username and password to connect. I sometimes have to try a few times to get it to connect to WiFi (it sometimes takes a minute or two after I first turn on "Wi-Fi". Then, every few hours, the phone reboots itself: I'm in the middle of doing something (can be anything) or the phone is idle in my pocket and then the AT&T boot screen appears. I assume that there is some sort of kernel panic or something else that causes the hardware to reset itself.

I'm fairly sure that this issue only happens in a specific building on campus, so perhaps there is a misconfigured access point here. Even so, this is still a bad problem and could have security implications (perhaps a malformed packet is causing some buffer to overflow).

My phone is a non-rooted, stock AT&T Captivate with the JH7 firmware

I've tried talking to Samsung, but they want me to send the phone to them so that they can "repair it". I've swapped out the phone at the store where I got it for a new unit and the new unit (with new battery) also has this same problem.

The 802.11g at my house works flawlessly.

Ideas?

Assuming that this is a kernel-panic issue, how would I extract a stacktrace or other debug information? Do kernel panics cause the phone to restart itself? Have the 802.11 drivers been updated in newer kernels (what's the chance that a custom firmware based Froyo would solve this issue?)

(disclosure: This question was posted on samsungcaptivateforum last month without any

productive responses. I'm a new user here, so I cannot link to that post yet....)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeshmoe08:
Thats weird because my phone has no problems like that and I have connected to many WPA networks. I don't know the source of the problem but my suggestion would be try a custom rom before sending to samsung because it can't hurt. If it doesn't work for you then just restore to stock and send it to them. (kernel suggestion: latest speedmod kernel. works flawlessly.)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pigrew:
Do you use "enterprise"/RADIUS/802.1x authentication? (This (roughly) means that you need to enter a username and password in order to connect to your network).

I was trying to wait until AT&T releases 2.2, but I'm getting impatient on that front. I'll try to look for the speedmod kernel, perhaps. My office is in an electronics lab, so I wonder if something is spewing out RF interference in here.

-Nathan
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pigrew:
I just flashed my with the Cognition 3.02 firmware and the issue is still present. My hunch is that it is a wifi firmware or driver bug. I doubt that these things are changed in the various kernel builds.... Maybe the official Froyo release will fix it, but at this point I doubt that it will.

Someone in my building suggested that the issues may be caused by us having two separate networks on different sides of the building that have the same ESSID.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
I'm offering up a bounty of $10, payable immediately by Paypal, to anyone who can help me figure out how to make OpenVPN (using Hidemyass Pro) correctly run on my HTC Incredible with Virtuous 3.2 Rom installed.

I used the following directions from this site to set up OpenVPN:

Easy way - OpenVPN on rooted/S_OFF Incredible with BusyBox installed:

This is by far the easiest way to set up OpenVPN. Make sure you copy your config file and any relevant keys to a folder on your sdcard.

If you do not have tun.ko on your system, then you can download it for 2.2 (tun.zip) or 2.1 (inside openvpn.zip) attached to this post.

Next, download the following two apps from the Android Market:

OpenVPN Installer

OpenVPN Settings

Next, run OpenVPN installer, click install, give it an install path (I prefer /system/xbin), and give it the path to BusyBox.

Finally, run OpenVPN Settings. Go to Menu -> Advanced, make sure "Load tun kernel module" is checked.

Click on "TUN module settings"

Change "Load module using" to insmod

Change "Path to tun module" to... the path to your tun.ko file. Click back.

Update "Path to configurations" and "Path to openvpn binary".

That should be it!

Okay, so let me be clear in explaining exactly what I've done:

1) I used OpenVPN installer, clicked install, and pointed the install path to /system/xbin and then to Busy box - Binaries installed perfectly without a problem

2) I put all the Hide My Ass Config files into a folder on my SD card called Openvpn (/sdcard/openvpn)

3) I opened the advanced menu and checked "Load tun kernal module"

4) Changed the "Load Module Using" to insmod

5) Changed the Path to tun to (/sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko) - this is the folder where I put all my config files, including tun.ko

6) Changed "Path to configurations" to (/sdcard/openvpn) - which, just like the tun.ko file, is where the config files are located, along with the keys

7) Kept "Path to Binaries" as default setting (/system/xbin/openvpn)

So, after all this has been accomplished, it lists my VPN's servers and I click on one of them. It asks me for my login credentials, and when I put them in, I get the following error:

Fatal;"Cannot load certificate file./keys/hmauser.crt: error:02001002:systemlibrary:fopen:No such file or directory: error: 20074002:BIO.routines:File_CTRL.system lib: error:140AD002:SSL routines: SSL_CTX_use_certicate_file:system lib

Don't know what this means and don't know where to begin to fix the problem. But as I said, first person who gets me online using openvpn will get $10 by Paypal immediately. Who's in?!

If this helps, here's where I got the Hide My Ass Config files:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
EDIT: Think I found your problem. Open the .ovpn file and look for

ca ./keys/ca.crt

cert ./keys/hmauser.crt

key ./keys/hmauser.key

change ./keys/ to where you are storing the files.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
It looks like the .ovpn files are all the same, more or less. I don't know where to find what you're mentioning above.

Here are all the files HMA provides. Which of these should i change?:

http://hidemyass.com/vpn-config/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
Pick one that is closest to you.

Open it up and look for

ca ./keys/ca.crt
cert ./keys/hmauser.crt
key ./keys/hmauser.key

Change ./keys/ to ./sdcard/openvpn/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
I changed it, but now I get the same error message but with the above thread:

Fatal;"Cannot load certificate file./sdcard/Openvpn/hmauser.crt: error:02001002:systemlibrary:fopen:No such file or directory: error: 20074002:BIO.routines:File_CTRL.system lib: error:140AD002:SSL routines: SSL_CTX_use_certicate_file:system lib

What does the "." before "/sdcard" mean? Am I manipulating the data incorrectly or is there something else I should try?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
it's case sensitive Make sure the folders match. Try it with and without the "."
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
You are so close to getting that $10!!

I changed the sequence to /sdcard/Openvpn and for the first time, it actually tried to authenticate and login. But now I got a new error.

It goes through the following:

Auth

Get Config

A quick Ip number that I can't read

then, the following error:

"FATAL: Linux ifconfig failed: could not execute external program"

Any idea how to fix this? I feel like we're very close!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
i dont want the bounty. Just helping out.

open terminal emulator and do

look to see if 'ifconfig' is there
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Thanks for helping out...

Since I have s-off, I'm guessing I'd have to boot into recovery to do anything in terminal emulator (earlier I was told I'd need to do this to use ADB Shell). Is this correct?

I have Astro file viewer on my phone, can I accomplish the same thing by just looking in the folder with that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
You can use astro, just make sure it's there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Just checked. Yes, it's there. I noticed in the original post on how to set up OpenVPN, posts # 5-8 deal with this exact issue.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702634

I'm not sure what, if anything, I should do with the file the OP posted in post #8, since this was months ago, and the version of OpenVPN I downloaded came out of the market this week. Also, from his original post, it looks like the OpenVPN he attached is for 2.1 not 2.2.

Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
I GOT IT!!!!!

I had followed the original directions, which said to put ifconfig in system/xbin/bb, but I just reinstalled the binaries in system/xbin and it connected.

Don't know why the original directions were off, but I am so happy. Thank you so much.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FredMan:
Congrats! Have Fun.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Since you were so helpful, can I trouble you for one more question that you may or may not know the answer to?

I have Tasker on my Android and I need it to kill the OpenVPN session when I'm using a certain wifi. This was easy to do with the VPN 1 plugin for PPTP, but I don't know how to make it kill an OpenVPN session (tried to set it up, but it seems to keep trying to reconnect and less I manually toggle off "OpenVPN" in "OpenVPNSettings."

Wanna take a crack?
