Recently callers have been complaining that they hear their voice echo when talking to me...its only on their end...everything sounds fine on my end. It also only seems to happen when receiving calls from other cell phones. Is this happening to you? Also please state what rom you are using so we can try to determine if this is rom-related or a sprint service problem.

I take it your running MIUI? The last couple of builds have had this issue. It will get worked out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydah:
im not having the issue, but i would like to know, which rom are you on and did you ever fix it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greenfieldan:
The only time this has come up is when people use the MIUI ROM. This is a known problem in that ROM :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strung:
Try turning your speaker volume down as low as you can still hear it. Echo is caused by the combination of lag and the sound from the earpiece getting picked up by the mic.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCap79:
Yes I'm using MIUI. Someone just complained about it for the 1st time the other day. I read it was common in MIUI rom but wanted to see if others had the same problem. It doesn't appear to happen when talking to someone on a land line...nor does it happen when talking to my fiancée who has tmobile. I thought about switching roms by i like MIUI too much. I don't talk on the phone much/for very long...so the people i talk to can suck it up for a few mins lol

Hi all. Just got the color nook today and rooted it with autonook. It is a 16g sandisk. Tried to use it and now just shows 32 megabytes in size. This was after I used winimage to put the 1.01 upgrade to root it. How to I get it back to 16g? Tried to format it in win 7...no luck. As a side note,.this baby is wonderful and a hell of alot more portable then my ipad.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
recently i tried to replace the kernel that came with a version of Phoenix with an updated kernel before flashing, but it did not work out. I simply extracted the original, replaced the zimage, and created a new zip file with the new kernel in the rom, using windows to package the zip. is this what i should do, or is it more complex than this? the flash failed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
Don't extract the rom zip. Use 7zip or similar and open archive, delete the zimage then drag the other kernel zimage in there. Or just flash the rom as is and then flash the kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
thanks! that makes sense. can i just do what you said using windows explorer?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
7zip is free and handles many more file extension types.

Install it then right click on the file in windows explorer, select 7 zip, then open archive. This allows you to make changes without actually extracting the entire file.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
yes i know, but when just dealing with a zip file, can i use windows explorer to delete contents inside the zip and replace them?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
You are too quick....edited my post above
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
so when i double click on a zip file in windows explorer, and it opens it as if it were just another folder, can i not replace stuff directly in windows explorer where im at?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
That extracts everything and you may have issues after zipping it back up
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
in windows explorer, you can right click and select extract files, but when you double click the zip it appears that it is allowing you to edit the contents without completely unzipping. am i wrong in thinking this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
Perhaps you can do it that way......i just always used 7zip. You will have to try it and see.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
alright, thanks bud =D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] photojunky:
I am using winzip. When I right click the zip file it gives me the option to "open" with winzip. When I do it shows me files like windows does. So my question is can I use winzip to replace the file and then close it?

It seems like on most of the newer Android Nand and ClockworkMod builds the hard keys on the wired headset don't work. Does anybody know if there is a way to fix this? It would be great if there was an apk or a zip file that I could install to fix this, or better yet have it built into the ROM like it used to be.

If no such fix exists then does anybody know of a CWM (preferrably Desire based) build where the wired headset works?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bergs333:

ps: on first rafdroid 1.0 revision It was working but with all new nand desire hd based ROM since 1.72 I think nothing work only voice recognizing ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DannyBiker:
Ok, I'm pushing that thread up cause we really need headset support. I think we need to get organized to offer proper bug-reports. Like that, dev's will be more inclined to work on this.

It is indeed not possible to use the "stock" headsets with Android ROMS/NAND. It's one of the other thing that WP7 proove it was not impossible to achieve (like wake up lag or 720p recording), it just need some work. In WP7, the headset button work (and are used for increasing/decreasing the volume).

This is the behaviour I encountered with EVERY ROM (Sense, CM 6.1 and Ginger) and EVERY PLAYER I tried (Stock Android, Stock Sense, MusicMod, PlayerPro and ³) :

While the stock headset offer "Play/Answer", "Next" and "Previous" buttons, none of them work. To be more specific : they work the first time you press them for me, then that's it; that is only the NEXT button actually.

The first time I try the NEXT button it behaves as it configured in the Player used (ex : in PlayerPro, Volume Down for a quick press, Next track for a long press). The second time you press, it is no longer working.

I think (but I'm not sure) that the Play/Pause/Answer" button also work once. After that, impossible to answer a call from the headset which is A REAL problem actually. The time you reach for the HD2 in your pocket, you missed it.

I don't recall the Previous working at all.

Please, report any other behavior. And if you have tried other headsets, don't hesitate to also comment on their behavior.

It's really annoying for people who uses the HD2 as a music player.

Thanks ! :p

Well you say you are rooted but do you have cwm installed?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvelasquez21:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camarojones:
That app, I believe, is used to grab specific versions of the mod for specific phones with specifc ROMs. Unless you're running the rom required, it will lock the phone like that. You will have to restore a backup through clockwork, you did make one I hope, or adb push the original file back...otherwise its time to wipe and reload.

[A7 General] RojasTKD:
I'm guessing the new A7.X models are essentially an A7 with more built in memory and a higher res screen.

So if this is so, there is the possibility that the new screen can work with our current A7's. Of course this would require a flash to the new A7.X firmware (for support of the higher res. screen). So am I correct with my assumption?

I ask because I have an A7 with a broken display. I'm hoping this may be a viable option for me.

I've sent eLocity two e-mail over three weeks ago to see if it is possible to have the screen replaced. It's been three weeks and I have to receive a replay. I also called and was told they would have the Tech Dept. call me back within 48 hours... of course I still over a week later and I still have not heard a word.

[HD2 Accessories] genesis123:
When I first bought the cards I was getting fast write speeds around 6mbs as advertised. However after partioning it with wp7 and android and getting about 1.3mbs much less than before. The card is only a week old and before I call and ask I wonder if it could be do to the partitioning? Its divided between a 5.2gb android fat32 and a 2.3gb unformatted by wp7.

This is via usb btw, or is this a known problem through usb?
[Nook Color General] vapor63:
So I am in fact running the 900mhz kernel right now, and the CM6 kernel on my Droid is running at around 1ghz with lowered voltages (hand tuned). I can't help but wonder, however, if doing so is safe for the future of the device? The manufacturer obviously knew what voltages and frequencies were most stable and safe for the longevity of the processor--and they likely spent a long time, with expert developers, working on getting the most speed and battery life out of the processor.

Who are we to suddenly decide that it can run faster and on lower voltages? No offense to the hard work put into the screamer kernel, as I am using it myself, but ever since the slow and painful decay of my Nvidia 8600GTS due to lowered voltages from the PSU over time, I've felt iffy about doing the same to devices that lack any cooling mechanisms.

So I'm curious: What risks do we incur by running an overclocked kernel? How can we detect the onset of long-term damage?
[Nook Color General] JackOnan:
The main risk is damage to the CPU(electromigration if overvolting), but its hit or miss, depending on the quality of your particular chip. Undervolting can help minimize electromigration.

In general, overclocking will shorten the life of the unit - but by how much is difficult to say. I had a desktop PC that I ran overclocked for over 8 years with no problems and its still works today - a lesser chip might have been damaged in a year or less. If your CPU is marginal to begin with, it could fail in a short amount of time - days or weeks.

There really isn't any way to tell if its being damaged until its too late, but heat is a good indicator. If your unit feels excessively warm, then its life is probably being reduced - but it may be reduced from 20 years to 10, or from 10 years to 5 by which time the unit is obsolete anyway.

A close examination of the manufacturers data sheet would be in order to get a better idea of the life expectancy of the chip with the MTBF(Mean Time Before Failure) parameter in particular. Thats if this information is even available - some manufacturers do not publish it.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Like Jack - i have overclocked for years. I will say this. I have had Intel, Via, and AMD cpus, and not one has EVER failed from overclocking (and i took an AMD opteron from 1.8 to 2.8Ghz, for 3 years straight).

Honestly, the only real world risk you face, is if you run a CPU beyond its overclock limits. If your system (any system in general) is unstable, and you dont adjust it, you risk damage. Otherwise, you are fine.
[Nook Color General] bobzdar:
Overclocking itself wont shorten the life at all. The extra heat is what can cause damage but I don't think you'll be anywhere near the edge of the thermal envelope as these nooks just don't get very hot. Over-volting will also shorten the life some, but I can tell you based on experience as a semiconductor reliability engineer that if your cpu dies due to a minor over volt or heat from overclocking that it was going to die anyway. Electromigration will take many years. What will kill it is heat/cool cycles, and an overvolt and/or overclock will make it hotter and increase the temperature delta on a given heat/cool cycle. All of these chips go through Burn in, which is a high temperature overvolted test to weed out infant mortality chips, so they've already seen a much higher stress cycle than can be done to them via firmware when installed in a nook.
[Nook Color General] madfatter:
No offense, but who cares, lol. If it lasts 2 years I will be happy. I havent kept a cell phone longer since my first nokia brick phone. Besides, I'm sure by that time it will be sereverly outdated and in need of replacing anyway.
[Nook Color General] cutterjohn:
Extra heat is generally what kills ICs faster when overclocking, which is why if you don't/can't/aren't able to undervolt you need good cooling... no choice with the NC though as it's got to be undervolted to OC as we've no idea at all what the thermal budget of that package is, but I'd imagine that they're probably right on the edge to begin with even at 800MHz.

Some of my prior tablet I could feel warming up in the summer, harder to tell now with winter but my gTablet seems to get a bit warm at times when stressed...
[Nook Color General] nootered:
From my experience in many years of CPU overclocking in computers, overclocking does not generally cause damage. Upping the voltage, and in turn the temperatures as well, can definitely damage the unit.

If you run into issues simply from overclocking they will likely just be instability, but no damage is likely to become from it. That is unless you are upping the voltage.

There are certainly many variables as well, and no two systems will be exactly the same.

As far as make sure that it is safe, I wouldn't push it to far, and if you do, it will not be stable. Saying the B&N chose the best or most stable frequency is somewhat silly. Just like we know full well that AMD and Intel have massive overclocking headroom as well.
[Nook Color General] hvuong2:
Overclocking should be fine. I've been doing this on PCs since 1995/96 era. Never had one fail on me. As long as their is proper cooling or voltages are not too high, there is no issue. The key is to increase the CPU multiplier when you can, as opposed to voltage... but the tolerance of the hardware is pretty good.

No need to worry.

As for the manufacturers, they do the same thing. The buy a vanilla processor and depending on what they need on the market, the bump the speed. This allows them to buy one chip instead of ordering many types...
[Nook Color General] cutterjohn:
No. The 3621 was just left at AFAICT the "as sold" max clock for that particular SoC, which is probably as much a means of product differentiation was using the SGX530 was instead of the 540...

My guess would be that it can probably perform in the same range as the 3630, but additionally it might have had lower thermal specs listed which would also need to be accounted... but you're probably OCing usually doesn't harm anything, but if you're worried I'd keep an eye on the temp sensor every once in a while... (Used to OC my Palm IIIx all of the time, actually underclocked it as well when I was using it for reading...)

I see that the stable 1GHz and 1.1GHz kernels slightly overvolt(to 3630 values) so it would run a bit warmer... doesn't seem to be a problem for anyone yet, but I wonder if anyone's OCing one where it's actually even remotely something like warm ATM...
[Nook Color General] PCdumb:
My Galaxy S just died on me after 8 months. Coincidentally, I had just overclocked it to run at 1.2GHz and unvervolted it at about -50mV across, just a week before it died.

Would this have killed the phone? It died when charging and not when in use. I also noticed that the temp was kinda warm as well (not sure if this is the normal raised temp during charging).

For that matter, I'm also not sure if it was the processor that died or some other component on the board. There is no signs of life at all......

I did notice even before rooting, the operating temperatures can go as high as about 58degC and the phone would shutdown at times at this range. (temp obtained using a system monitoring app)

What is the usual operating temps for phones? Or should i ask, what is the max operaing temps for phones? Did I get a lemon to begin with?

Thanks
[Nook Color General] iDidItAll4theNookie:
The concern with OCs is mainly a heat issue, but even then as long as you stay within the thermal limits of the chip, you'll be fine. I remember once finding my moms K6-2 heat sink so clogged with dust that the fan was doing nothing. The system crashed from time to time, but once I cleaned it out, it ran just fine again. Not the best recent example, but I do know that the A8 is designed to hit faster clocks than 800, so running at 900-925 isn't a big issue. Also, unless you do nothing but games, your A8 isn't running at 900 most of the time--it just goes there when itneeds the power, then drops to 300 or 600 (which really saves battery). If you like, there is a few decent monitoring apps/Widgets you can run that show speed and temp. Most of the time, I don't think the A8 even reaches 40C, which is just a hot day in the summer where I live.
[Nook Color General] iDidItAll4theNookie:
I had to check, but one such app is called Temp+CPU V2. Its free in the Market.
[Nook Color General] Nooter:
Thanks for bringing this up. The OMAP processor in the Nook was run through a Burnin temperature of over 120C (~250F). The only temp sensor we've got on the Nook is for the battery, so we should assume a 10C - 20C delta between the battery temp and the processor temp. Therefore, if you see a battery temp of 100C - 110C (>200F), your processor is about to experience catastrophic failure.

It's very likely that setup (late mode) timing violations will cause your Nook to lock up or decode instructions incorrectly (causing force closes) well before your processor takes heat damage. The unfortunate circumstance is when the Nook locks up while its unattended, leading to vicious overheating; this has happened to me once. When I returned to the Nook after a night's sleep, it was locked up, and upon rebooting, the battery temperature was 120F. At that temperature it's the battery's lifetime you worry about, not the processor.
[Nook Color General] fpga_guy:
higher power, shorter battery life, timing violation

The power consumed by the NC is proportional to volt squared times the frequency. By overclocking, with mostly likely an increase in voltage, you will have to charge the battery more often, hence shorter battery life. (The number of recharge cycles in a LiIon battery is fixed.)

Another unknown is the timing requirements of the NC. Chips need a setup and hold time. At 800Mhz, all timing constraints were met. May not be the case at 1ghz or 1.1 ghz.

Having said this, I do overclock my PC but I don't overclock the NC (I don't want to recharge every day.)
