[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BootloopedMillennials:
The information here is so wrong. Im using a G2 the American version of the Desire Z. CPU is a upgrade from the Desire, Desire uses a first generation Snapdragon and the Desire Z uses the second generation Snapdragon CPU. Clock speed doesnt matter here, I can tell you my device keeps up or even surpasses the Desire HD when clocked in the same range (its basically a underclocked version of the CPU in the Desire HD). You clock a Desire Z to 1ghz and Im pretty sure it will keep up with a stock Desire HD and benchmark in the same range. And the difference between 576MB ram in the Desire and 512mb in the Desire Z will not make a difference. Im not sure what GPU the Desire uses but the Desire Z uses the same GPU found in the Desire HD, the new Adreno 205.

Desire Z and HD are a superior device compared to the Desire, besides arguably the screen. Ill give the edge slightly to the Desire HD over the Desire Z but performance wise they are in the same range.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
Basically you're right, it slipped my attention that z packs second gen too. But when it comes to memory you in so much fail since it will not make much difference in inconsistent benchmarks your statements rely on, but in day to day usage, moar memory, or even better, the lack of it will be felt badly.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BootloopedMillennials:
The RAM size would probably make a difference between the Desire HD and Desire Z but not the Desire Z and Desire. The difference is too small to be substantial in day to day use. I can tell you from day to day usage I have no slowness, lag, or problems with my G2. Go read any review on the Desire Z, they always mention how fast the device is and that is stock. Its probably aided by how efficient the second generation Snapdragon really is and utilizes the ram..

I am having a weird issue with my cappy. A few weeks ago, I loaded Cognition ROM, with Firebird kernel. I was using the modem that came with the ROM, JL1. Last night, I decided to experiment with different modems. I installed JL2, then, JL3, and here is where the problems started. With JL2 and JL3 data would work fine, the phone dials out, BUT I have no sound whatsoever. Whats worse, I tried to reflash the ROM, and go back to JL1, now I have no 3G reception at all, all I get is GSM 1900. I reflashed back to stock 2.2 and again, no reception??? Time to do master clear? Right now, I am back to Cognition 3.2 with JL3 modem, and no voice:(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dungeon47:
I would flash stock and master clear before doing anything else (except making backups). Test things in stock. if your problem is not present in stock, it is a ROM/configuration issue. If problems are present in stock, consider making a warranty claim.

Well i managed to crack my dell streak's screen somehow. it was not dropped at all it was just in my book bag. However my gorilla glass is not cracked. I have it listed on ebay right now. heres link if interested

h**p://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130479279908&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_1156

If someone can guide me into replacing the screen i would gladly appriciate it. i hat to see such a wonderful device go so cheap.

[Streak 5 Accessories] Yankees1tb:
Thanks, but these phones are way too sensitive i always treat my phone with care or else i wouldn't have bought an otter-box. dell made an excellent job with the phone/ tablet but they just have to work on their product's endurance.
[Streak 5 Accessories] PulldOvr:
I guess you don't have it under warranty?
[Streak 5 Accessories] DJ-VAN:
I've been very careful with my streak- haven't gotten a case for it and I don't think I will.

But I've been seeing a lot of these threads where the screen doesn't crack but the lcd beneath it does.

I've also read that people have been successful in getting Dell to replace/repair the unit for free as long as you say you took it out of your pocket and it was cracked and not that you dropped it.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Yankees1tb:
oh really? well im not going to risk it happening again i just went out and bought an hd2. how much do you guys think i will get for the streak with the lcd broken?]

No warranty :( $500 bestbuy, sucks right....

[Streak 5 Accessories] bigpunisher:
If you bought your phone direct from dell, around the time when it was first launched in august of last year, and you bought it at the time for the 549 price tag, just call dell and tell them that your screen has a crack in it. Don't tell them how the screen got cracked, and be nice on the phone. I had the same thing happen to mine and called in, and within two days i had a brand new phone in my hand. They did that because they didnt have replacement parts at the time and this was back in December. So hopefully it may work for you. Oh btw, if you have a modded rom on your unit, make sure to restore it to what was on the phone originally.
[Streak 5 Accessories] prasadKnew:
cracked mine lcd too few days ago. I have just gotten mine replacement streak but not for free :( , dell charged me for $250 on the word that I have to return the original. But don't have any return label with the replacement so not sure if I need to return the original broken streak. Testing the replacement currently if it is ok.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Bri81:
I ran across this online, it's a screen and digitizer replacement; it seemed like a good price for 159USD. It says it includes "Clear glass panel with transparent screen protection." Does that mean it comes with the Gorilla Glass?

I hope this helps anyone with a broken screen.

[Streak 5 Accessories] unknown123456:
I had the worst luck today. It started when I called Dell about a week ago to get a replacement streak because mine would no longer vibrate and the camera "cannot be found" after 3 weeks of use. I missed my package (the replacement) Friday from FedEx because I never received any email regarding shipping status or tracking information; so the delivery was unexpected. Today (Sunday) I drop my already faulty Streak and cracked the inside of the screen and it would no longer display properly. Now I have no idea what to do :mad:? I can't justify paying $250 like prasadKnew and sent my replacement back when the streak is priced as low as $49; in my case $194 + tax brand new/unlocked/no contract from the Dell promotion a month ago. I'm so mad :mad:. I don't even know what to do with the replacement now. Do I just ship back the replacement back or do I ship out my faulty/cracked lcd streak back and hear from them later?

The quality is definitely inferior to my HTC phones and I've owned quite a few. I've used and I dropped those phones so many times and I never got any interior damage; only cosmetic. I had no case for those phones either when I dropped it.
[Streak 5 Accessories] eSZee:
Quality is poor compared to htc? Seriously? You have a metal armored phone with a huge screen. It takes less of a fall for the streak screen to crack because it is that much bigger. Sounds to me like maybe you should be more careful.

[Streak 5 Accessories] mikeinessex:
if its just the glass and not the screen underneath you can pick up the glass for about 30 pound
[Streak 5 Accessories] unknown123456:
Based on my experience, yes I find that HTC has a higher quality control over Dell. I'm not entirely basing my opinion on the fault of the cracked LCD screen. That would be too prejudicial. All I can say about my cracked screen is I'm surprised how it's so fragile after the first drop compared to 4 previous HTC products I've owned which took beat downs during rush hour commutes. I'm confused by the contradiction when you say the streak is a "metal armored phone with a huge screen" and then leading to how it's more fragile because of a bigger screen? Compared to the HD2 I've owned for almost a year, the Dell Streak is not that much heavier or even bulkier. I've found my T-Mobile Wing to be much bulkier and that phone took a beating from me for over a year. The same goes with my HTC Blackstone and my first HTC phone; the HTC Excalibur. I questioned the quality issue because my camera no longer works and my phone no longer vibrates after 3 weeks of use.

Don't get me wrong eSZee, I still love my Streak because of the screen size, the battery life, and it's uniqueness. That is the reason why I purchase it and gave away my HD2 to a relative. However, the quality is still shotty to me compared to HTC phones.

As for Mike, I searched the forum and found multiple sites that sell the LCD screen; some without the glass and ones with it. The lowest price I've found so far was $80 or so with everything. It's sold on eBay and the link was posted by another member from this forum. I might go with that route.

The issue I'm facing is whether I should try to have Dell cover it by sending out my broken Dell and keeping the replacement until they call me or ship the replacement back and fix my broken phone myself? The conflict comes in when the fact is I called originally to get my streak fixed/replaced because it would no longer vibrate and my camera no longer can be found (dual LED doesn't work either). I highly doubt Dell will fix those issues under warranty first and then ship it back to me with a cracked LCD screen so I can fix it myself. I don't want to pay for the LCD repair from Dell because that would cost too much compared to a DIY method. I also can't fix the phone first and then ship it back for repair because Dell might argue I voided the warranty by opening it up.
[Streak 5 Accessories] mikeinessex:
i had the desire hd and it was heavier then the streak, although i think yes they break easier cause the screen is bigger but also cause the screen goes right out to the sides of the phone where as other phones dont

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotShotAzn:
Searching was a mess of incoherent threads (or maybe I don't know how to search correctly).

I am on Bionix V and with voodoo lagfix from Nero V5. I want to Odin back to stock and apply the 2.2 update. I am giving my phone to my dad and he wants it stock as a rock.

I disabled the lagfix via CWM and let it do its thing. When it booted back up, the file structure was different (obviously) and all of my files were "gone"...which I didn't care about since I already backed everything up.

The problem is my PC would NOT see the Vibrant via ADB. In fact, I couldn't even get it to show up as a removable drive. I re-enabled Voodoo, file structure came back, and bam, my PC recognizes it as usual.

What am I doing wrong?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcghee1973:
Well if your gonna go back to stock the disable voodoo in cwm , reboot and let it convert back to rfs and boot up. Hold your power button to get the Power options screen and go to Download Mode. Open ODIN, plug your phone into your pc and add the 512.pit to PIT and your .tar flash file to PDA, makes sure repartition is not check and you have a yellow COM port showing and hit Start.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Macelangelo77:
Glad to see someone did his homework today...

First of all, there's a bug in MAGLDR which prevents it from selecting root of your sd card (displayed as <.>). If MAGLDR is flashed it defaults to root (of your sd card), once changed you won't be able to select root anymore. The only way you can 'solve' this, is to reflash MAGLDR or to move the files of CWM into a newly created folder, for instance "RECOVERY", and select that under AD SD DIR.

Second, you mention you have 16Gb sd card. Do you have another card to test with? I've seen numerous reports of people with 16Gb sd cards, which couldn't get it to work. As if MAGLDR isn't able to read 16gb (or at least some brands/classes of them) properly.

Third, do you mean MAGLDR boots into MAGLDR Boot menu? Or do you mean you see MAGLDR every time at boot? The last is normal behaviour, as this is your new bootloader. If it's booting into MAGLDR boot menu you might have changed a setting: Services > BootSettings > AlwaysMenu.

Last but not least: the issue with the amber led and your phone not being able to boot when you connect the cable... that's a known MAGLDR bug which will be 'fixed' on a next release.

Sincerely,

Mac

things you'll need

APK MANAGER

7zip

DESCRIPTION :

Q : Basic

A : The icons are stored in the Drawable-mdpi folder in the framework.

these icons are linked to XML's in Drawable folder

if you just add the icons and don't change the xml, you'll get nothing.

Q : Why Cant we just Edit the XML files?

A : The XML files are encrypted. if you try to edit it you will get weird characters.

Q : No XML No Edits, Are we Done?

A : Yes, No XML No Edits. But we've a walkaround. The APK MANAGER

it decompiles the apk and unencrypts the xml file.

BASIC :

Extract the contents of APK MANAGER to any folder

you'll have few folders

place your apk in the place-apk-here-for-modding folder

open Script.bat

and chose option to decompile and minimize

it will create a folder namely PROJECTS

now you can edit the xml files

after your done, maximize the apkmanager window and choose comiple apk

HOW TO ADD MORE PNGS :

if you want to add pngs like the battery percentage you'll need to link the png to the xml file

this can be done by two ways

1. assigning resource_id

&

2. directly putting in the names

the 1st method is easy but complex so forget it

the second method is simpler.

just find the xml file corresponding to the png and than simply add the name.

for eg.

stat_sys_battery.xml is the battery status xml.

here the

android:drawable is the android code

and

@drawable/stat_sys_battery_* is the file location

THE PROBLEM & THE SOLUTION :

if you try to edit any modded framework file you'll get error while compiling.

and your phone will hang if you use that file.

SOLUTION

instead of using modded file. use the STOCK framework. Edit your files and compile your apk

now when you compile it, it will give you few options

1. is it a system file [y/n]

choose yes

2. (...blah blah.. do you wish to keep files)

choose yes

now it will extract the stock (unedited) framework in a KEEP folder

minimize the window

open the folder and delete all the files you modified.

if you had modified xml file you'll also need to delete resources.asrc

now maximize the apkmanager window and press any key.

your modded apk will be compiled in the place-apk-here-for-modding folder

PS : IT WOULD BE UNSIGNED

LAST STEP :

open the compiled unsigned apk and extract all the files you edited (including resources.asrc)

simply replace these files in the framework-res.apk you wanted to mod

only part to take care is the resources.asrc file you don't have to replace it directly

do this steps for replacing resources.asrc

1. right click the resources.asrc

2. select add to archive

3. archive format zip

4. compression method Store

5. select the path of your framework-res.apk

I know this all seems way to complex but if you read carefully and do it step by step, its all easy as a PIE
