uggg...may be too late. If you get a significant amount of liquid on or in your phone the worst thing you can do is turn it on.

You should have:

1. immediately removed battery and placed on a paper towel.

2. immediately place phone in a bag of rice for a minimum 24 hours if not 48 before ever powering back on.

Still its worth a try....remove battery and leave in rice for 24 hours....try again....maybe it didn't fry anything when you powered it on...but you definitely need to finish getting the moisture out of the inside via the rice absorption.

I had my old tilt in a pocket submerged in a swimming pool for a good 15 minutes before realizing my blunder. When i realizing it i didn't try to turn it back on. Left it in rice for 48 hours and everything work fine (luckily the phone was powered of when i got in the pool so that probably helped avoid anything frying).
[Captivate General] mobileseq:
Haha, I once accidently dropped my old Samsung Epix in a bucket of water and it still booted up and worked but most of the features are dead but screen and all still works. It looked like it was wrecked. I got it replaced under my insurance which is a good thing.

[Captivate General] bames:
funny

but being aware that you shouldn't turn on an electronic device when it is wet hardly requires hindsight though does it? =)
[Captivate General] thelastjedi:
Thanks guys, I have put my phone in a bowl of rice hoping it will get cured. :(

If not, will ATT not service my phone under warranty ? I read somewhere that replacing the wifi/bt chip costs $70 with ATT. Has anyone done this here ?

Thanks all for your quick replies ! Much appreciated. I will keep everyone updated on how this issue pans out so it will help someone in the future
[Captivate General] bames:
Tesist the urge to take out Nd test.....leave at least 24 hours without touching
[Captivate General] thelastjedi:
How do I check for the moisture indicator ? Any easy steps ?
[Captivate General] newter55:
It is the white (or not so white anymore) square in the battery compartment.
[Captivate General] swedishcancerboi:
I just felt like being ornery. I think i read a "you should have....." and it just got me laughing thinking of that episode. No disrespect intended towards anyone.
[Captivate General] bames:
i know i thought it as funny haven't seen that episode in a long time...almost as good as towlie

i am just always surprised to see the posts where someone gets there phone wet (washed in laundry, dropped in toilet, spilled significant amount of liquid on it) and the first thing they did was tried to turn it back on almost immediately.
[Captivate General] bames:
btw if your looking at the moisture indicators for warranty purposes its quite possible you have to completely open the shell. Usually they have one visible without taking the phone apart but its not uncommon to have a secondary marker inside the phone where it would be harder for someone to tamper with. Can anyone confirm where all the cappys markers are?
[Captivate General] newter55:
Been a while since I had mine apart but I don't recall seeing one inside.
[Captivate General] bames:
wasn't sure....my Tilt2 had one in the battery compartment and one on the motherboard that could only be seen by opening the casing
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RicoATT:
Is there a Register key that turns the keyboard lights off permanently on the HTC Tilt 2? I have PHM Register Editor installed and have found the following values under the BackLight key folder.

My problem is: the back light on the keyboard never goes off. It stays on continually even when the keyboard is not extended. The kicker is this: when i power the phone off, the keyboard back light "still" remain on and the phone gets vey warm unless i take the battery out to truely 'render the phone powerless'.

Anyone know the values to adjust if at all to these keys (or another?) that may turn the backlight off:

KeyLightAutoSensor 1(0X00001)

LightDetectOn 1(0X000001)

QKeyLedTimeout 1(0X000001)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RicoATT:
Resolved: The next day, the keypad lights finally works properly, they go off when the keypad is closed and turn on when extended (HTC TIlt2). PLUS: the keyboard back light now turns off with the rest of the phone when i power it down. STILl do not know how the backlight started staying on despite the phone being turned off. Its a sign for sure that it's time for a new phone. I guess its Android time (i dont like windows 7 .. too locked down)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] neugroove:
Alright I've searched and really thought I'd come up with something, but nobody seems to have this exact problem. Everything works perfectly as long as I'm on wifi, but as soon as I hit tmous data, it'll freeze for a sec, then reboot, followed by a few consecutive battery pulls. I'm doing a radio re-flash, but anyone have any idea of why it's doing this only on data?

Edit** Re-flashing radio did nothing :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] seanyuan62:
Okay this is an easy fix.

1. Run a task 29 and wipe your phone clean

2. Flash the official T-Mobile Stock ROM(this upgrades your radio to the newest 2.15)

3. Flash MAGLDR 1.12

4. Flash the DFT WP7 for HD2 rom

5. Download and run htc connection setup. Make sure you select US as well as tmobile for region and carrier(respectiveley)

This should auto configure your apn and other network settings

If you want the manual data:

Apn--epc.tmobile.com

Username--none

Password--none

Note-Actually type none for username and password

If you are getting restarts turn airplane mode on, enter the apn settings, disable 3g, turn airplane mode off, and enable 3g

Hope this was useful to you and others who have this problem

If I helped please hit the thanks button!:D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] neugroove:
Ok so I thought this worked, but it's actually still doing the same thing. Everything works perfectly, until I use data. So weird... Is anyone else having this issue? Also, it takes like 5-10 boots to get it fired up.

Would the SD card be causing my data to crash the phone? It just doesn't seem logical to me, but I'm no expert. Using Sandisk 4gb class4 card btw

*Edit* If anyone else is having this problem, try playing with radios. I just downgraded from 2.15.50.14 to 2.10.50.28_2 and it seems to be solved. Data works fine now without crashes.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] seal:
Why was it so strict when we followed the first instruction that we had to use radio 2.15. It is great that other radio's work as I have issues with data and signal with 2.15 as well.
[Ideos S7 General] ossyris:
After using the S7 in the A1 version for a while, there is a couple of questions arising to me:

I did the mistake of installing Twidroid PRO which now withstands all attempts to get removed. Even worse, it will start in the background every time I restart the device. I really want to get rid of Twidroid.

Whatever I do, I cant get any QR reader to work. After googling for the problem it seems, that some other S7 users experience the same trouble, while others dont. Maybe depending on the type of camera installed. Any ideas?

Some very basic applications, like Google Goggles, are not visible for S7 users in the Android Market. A few can be found on alternative sites and do work fine, but most apps stay unreachable. Is there a way to get those apps ?

Thanks for any hints to get more happy with my S7.
[Ideos S7 General] CasualStarlord:
as for twidroid, root your device and uninstall it once its rooted, I will take a look at getting google goggles tonight and let you know :D
[Ideos S7 General] ossyris:
Thanks for your help. I did root the S7 and after some more fruitless attempts to delete Twidroid, I found the reason - but not the solution:

Twidroid disguises as a system file that resists any attempts to delete or to uninstall. Basically, the typical behaviour of malware.

This makes me even more worried about Twidroid and its "mission".

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Stephen:
I now run gingerbread as my daily rom and it is awsome. One feature that has been added recently is the vibrate after call is connected. I was wondering if it is possible to disable this feature? Full details of the rom and phone are in my signature below. It is an awsome rom and would recommend it. Love working led lights and usb mas storage. Just would really like to disable the vibrate.

I would like to keep the main vibrate option available so that when I do have an in comming call I can keep the phone on silent/vibrate mode.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] montecarlo5:
im not sure about that rom but it should be under settings, call settings.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Stephen:
I think it was an option the chiefs put into the rom rather than a native function. I was just hoping to be able to disable it again. I know it is not on other gingerbread roms, but I like the functionality of this one and would just like to disable it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RedWave31:
Ahem...24 thanks and not able to go to settings, call settings, and uncheck "vibrate on answer"...?

Sorry I'm rude, but XDA servers, although they cannot talk, just agree you shouldn't have posted ANOTHER thread. This is just useless cluttering.

My 2 cents.

And no, it's been answered before, and wasn't worth a thread. Just so u know.

Like there or elsewhere.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Stephen:
In Gingerbread gone into settings -> call settings and options I have are:

Fixed Dialing numbers

Voicemail Service

Voicemail settings

Call forwarding

Aditional Settings -> Caller ID Call waiting

Accounts -> Receive incomming calls

Use interet calling

Nothing regarding the vibrate on call answer. If you have a look at the thread the rom, the Chief actually added that option him self. I think he modified the framework file to enable it. I have used other gingerbread roms that do not have this function and just wondered if it is possible to disable it by changing the code.

I have also disabled all other Haptic Feedback settings in the sound and keyboard options, and gone in to the phone dialer to see if there are any native settings there. I might be able to fix it by downlaoding another dialer and using it, but I would prefer to use the native dialer if possible.

That was also the reason why I created this thread as it is a spesific option on this build. I did ask the question on the orgional rom's thread but did not get any reply. It may not be possible to do which is fine but I was just curious.

I no longer run gingerbread, and I'm on my cell so I can't see your signature. But at one time vibrate on answer was a standard feature, and could be disabled in the settings, just like stated above.
[General Questions and Answers] timbermar:
Last night the battery died on my Tilt 2, I plugged it into my computer to charge, figuring I'd sync it at the same time, and turned it back on. Once the phone powered up, the computer displayed a message saying the phone was locked, and I need to authenticate on the device. No problem, I go to put my code in, it says I used the wrong code, try again this time I'm sure I typed my code. Phone says I entered the wrong code, I keep trying, this goes on until I strike out, it tells me to enter a specific code "a1b2c3" which I do. From this point on, the unlock button does nothing when I press it. No error messages, no unlocking, it just sits there.

At this point, I assume my only option is to do a hard reset, but I'd like to try to avoid that (wouldn't we all, lol). If its my only way to get back onto the phone, I'll do it, just want to explore my options first. Thanks

ROM which i use is 99% stock Desire HD. Work everything like on Desire HD. I`m haven`t any problem with him.

MDJ kernel is great for overclock and underclock and still save battery life in combination with SetCPU.

Battery life is longer then battery on Desire HD.

I am using MDJ CM7 2.4 and everything works that I can tell (have not found anything that doesnt)

a few apps can be tricky (angry birds, can knockdown) they install to the sd card which I am not sure if its a CM thing or a 2.3 thing...but if you go into manage applications and move the app to the phone, they work just fine.

...also for mms (if thats your thing) you can go into the stock messaging app and change the user agent to custom and enter "nexusone" (without the quotes) your mms messages will not be blurry.

I have not messed with a lot of the sense (Desire) builds as they only leave about 400mb of app storage...I get over 850mb with MDJ's CM build (using a US 1024 HD2 of course)

[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
4G and the stock evo usb tethering does not work. However pdanet works fine, but seems to limit speeds to ~4-5 mbps. Also, you need to install a client on the pc making use of it, not to mention having to pay if you want to access ssl sites.

Find wired tether on the market - it works well with usb without the speed limitation. Your pc detects the usb connection as a ndis connection. You will still need drivers, so include them on your sd card. Initially, setup the usb connection as disk drive so you can pull the drivers.

I've seen speeds peak as high as 12-13 mbps with usb tether during off peak times. Never seen speeds that high with wireless. Of course, for basic browsing, 4-5mbps is plenty.

I just bought a brand new Patriot 32gb class 10 micro sdhc for my evo 4g. I popped it in to my computer to test the speed with a utility and found that I had a 11mbps write and 14mbps read. Yay! I was happy until I popped it in to my evo and ran a test directly on the phone only to find out that my write speed was the same, but my read speed was stuck at 5mbps no matter how many time I ran it or whether i ran it right after a reboot. I've found a couple of different posts on other forums concerning the matter, and I'm wondering if this is a universal issue for Evo users? The utility I used is call SD Card Speed Tester and it seems to be very accurate. I found a post about desire users at this link http://android.modaco.com/content/h...tch-for-slow-sd-card-read-speed/#entry1475692 and it seems that kernel update fixed the issue for them. Maybe I should present this to a developer. Please let me know if you all are having this issue too.
