[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwalton4077:
Ok so I have seen that when you download a Rom, sometimes they ask that you flash the latest radio and or kernel. So how do you find out what the right one is for the Rom you are tryin to flash. And on top of that I have no idea what a radio image or a kernel is or does so if any one knows a good link to school me on that I'm sure that would help. Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
For radios, USUALLY the latest released version is the best. There are some situations where an older version may actually work better for your carrier (telco). You can find a list for GSM HTC Hero radios here: http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?307-Gsm-Hero-Radio-Roms-Download-Links It is VERY, VERY important to flash the correct radio for your device, otherwise you will probably brick it.

For kernels, the ROM dev usually (99.9% of the time) includes the kernel so you don't have to worry about it. Some users though want different performance out of their devices and MAY flash another kernel.

This sticky provides good advice http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797740. It is from the XDA GSM Hero dev section.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwalton4077:
Is a hero the same as a g2? I have a t-mobile us g2. So would hero radios work for it? And would I flash the radio or Rom first?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwalton4077:
Oh and if you do flash the wrong radio can you not fix it be recovering a backup
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
I might be wrong but I think your phone is like the HTC Desire Z. If it is, this is the wrong section of XDA for you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
Don't think so. Just try not to flash the wrong one. ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkelley:
what saj222 said
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkelley:
ok, seriously - what he said is correct, but I too am uncertain if this is the correct place for you.

I know the xda title is HTC G2/GSM hero. but I think the GSM hero and G2 actually use different radios? It certainly could be true anyway and I would not take a chance by flashing a G2 radio or any other radio without confirming with a real bonified G2 user.

edit: we're 99% hero users here.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
The G2 Touch (this section of XDA) was/is offered by T-Mobile UK. Also known as the GSM HTC Hero - offered by numerous other carriers.

To complicate things further, there is also a CDMA HTC Hero. Different animal altogether.

Just be careful!

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fig_jam_uk:
Im very dissapointed, my Streak has gone to silicone heaven :( and there is no reason for this either.

I got up this morning, got dresst and went to work as normal, I noticed my Streak vibrated in my pocket so when I got to work I had received a text so I proceed to unlock the device only to find it lagging to death and generally un-responsive.

This cleared and I started writing my responce to the text and the haptic feedback stopped and then the phone became fully un-responsive, so it was time for a bettery pull, I did this a further 3 times as it kept locking up (I though it was due to a media player I installed from the market last night so was going to uninstall it but it wasnt in the list of installed apps)

Then after the 3rd reboot I was then stuck at the boot screen and it would not go any further, I have gone into the recovery menu, cleared partitions etc etc and still its the same, I have also flashed back from DJ_steve 1.6.1 to 1.5.1 in the vein hope that it was something to do with 1.6.1, but no still the same.

Im going to try and put a stock rom on there and see what happens (as im able to flash etc etc it just seems to be when something is initializing during boot)

Im just wondering if anyone else has had this issue? :confused:
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edrill:
Try going to 1.5.1, allow it to boot fully. Go back into Recovery and do a factory reset. Option 4 in the Dell Menu, not StreakMod/ClockWorkMod. Allow 1.5.1 to fully boot up again. Go back to recovery and then flash 1.6.1 Hopefully this should get you up and running again. Do remember that 1.6.1 will take a while to boot up the first time.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fig_jam_uk:
Hi Edrill, thanks for the response, I have flashed 1.5.1 back on and factory reset, at 1st it didnt work but I tried again and was in the front room and I heard my alert tone :D back up and running on 1.5.1 think ill stick with that for now as its 2.2 anyways.

Thanks again bud.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edrill:
No problem! Glad I could help.

Now that you've got a factory-resetted phone, going up to 1.6.1 shouldn't create any issues really. Just that the first boot after flashing 1.6.1 may take unusually longer than the first boot on any previous build, is all.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fig_jam_uk:
Ive opted for 1.5.3 for the time being, I had that for a few weeks without any issues so going to stick to that and see how the phone goes.

For now she's up and running without any issues *touches wood*

Hi all.

This is my first post. I tried to post a reply to the method to unroot in two steps but I was giving a message that I can't post in the development section of this forum.

I'm going to have to send in my EVO for service but it's rooted and has a custom Sense ROM installed (SPRINT LOVERS ROM). I came across the two step method to unroot an EVO (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780141). Can I use that and it reverted the phone to an unrooted state and back to the stock ROM, as I don't know exactly what's in that IMG ZIP file (I know they're used to flash phones but I don't know exactly if the one in the unroot post I mentioned is the stock ROM).

Helpful replies will be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] Hanzter:

[G Tablet General] BilliamB:
Anybody know what the little indentation is for that lives on the bopttom left side of the G Tablet when in landscape viewing? Does this do something for the dock? It doesn't seem to be a finger rest stop and it looks to be a cover of sorts but when I look at some of the disassembly pictures there does not seem to be anything behind it. Is where a magnet turns on an application like on the droid? Very curious, anybody know?
[G Tablet General] viking68:
It's for access to the missing sim card slot. This unit does not have the hardware for the slot, but other Malata based units may, and therefore they just cover the slot, and can use the same shell. Cheaper to produce.
[Adam General] Metallaro:
Hi all!

I'd like to buy this tablet (soon there are pre order 2 :D), but I have a doubt: I live in Italy, are there any problems with shipping in europe? I mean: more tax to pay, customs... language...

did anyone who live in europe buy this tablet? :D
[Adam General] scienzy:
The italian language is supperted and probably you will pay at the custom the iva tax (20% as you surely will know :D ).

I heard that now at the custom the package from china are very often opened, so "mettiti il cuore in pace e paga :D "
[Adam General] Metallaro:
So, 400 dollars are 291 eur.

291 eur + IVA (20%) = about 350 eur.

And if I buy the tablet from the USA, how much will my taxes? (I think you know what is consegnato.com :D)
[Adam General] mastroido:
Excuse me for the question, but i want to buy an Adam and i'm from Italy.. Where do i can order one?
[Adam General] Sirchuk:
You can only get them from one place for now, directly from notion ink. They aren't in stock, but they will be doing another pre order soon. They are giving priority to people who commented on their blog a few days ago, then they will open orders to the rest of us. Last time though all of the pixel qi models were sold out in the pre order phase. I'm hoping that isn't the case this time.

You can buy them on ebay but they are a couple hundred more.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] knzo:
2.2 or 2.2.1?

I don't have the time but I can leave the instructions to someone which has:

1- Grab 2.2 or 2.2.1 boot.img (look in Prime ROM for 2.2.1 and Light ROM for 2.2)

2- Unpack boot.img (use dsixda's kitchen for example)

3- Extract the zImage (the file in the first folder with >2MB, it has another name but I don't recall)

4- Get the Amon_RA recovery port for P500, extract contents to some folder

5- Replace the zImage for the one you extracted in the unpacked boot.img (you have to rename it)

6- Zip it again (with no compression)

7- Sign the zip

[General Questions and Answers] jet24:
Hi I have a Samsung Blackjack I607 that kinda works because I accidentally almost flashed it with I600 rom ,I managed to cancel it, but bad luck to me because it flashed the bootloader and my pc won't detect it, thankfully the OS is intact so I can access SD card but can't make any calls with it.

So my questions are...

1.Where can I get an I607 eboot.nb0 or bootloader?

2.How can I install it from sd card?

To make it easy to understand when I go to settings -> version I see this:

PDA Version: i607UCHA1

Phone Version: i607UCHA1

H/W Version: REV0.0

Eboot Version (The problem):i600UXXGG2

I'm having an issue in my application where items in my app drawer (this is a home replacement) will appear multiple times. Basically I have a ListView that I apply a custom Adapter to. The source for the adapter is created from the code below. Anytime I want to refresh the app drawer I recreate the source, again by calling the code below. Any idea why I might be getting duplicates?

PackageManager manager = getPackageManager();

Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
mainIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);

final List<ResolveInfo> apps = manager.queryIntentActivities(mainIntent, 0);
Collections.sort(apps, new ResolveInfo.DisplayNameComparator(manager));

if (apps != null) {
final int count = apps.size();
mAllApplications = new ArrayList<ApplicationInfo>(count);
mAllApplications.clear();

for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
ApplicationInfo allApp = new ApplicationInfo();
...
mAllApplications.add(allApp);
}

This is my first post here, but I've been lurking pretty regularly for about a week now. I was actually shown these forums by some folks over in the Penny Arcade forums Android thread.

I just want to drop a quick line and say thanks to everyone over here; The developers, the people who answer questions, thanks to the mods who keep the place going. Thanks to you guys I was able to go from being a relative Android noob to having a completely rooted, custom ROM flashed, and extremely sexy Epic.

Sometimes people only post when they have an issue, or when something goes wrong, and I wanted to buck the trend a little and post just to say thank you. As the thread title says, thanks to XDA, I'm in love with my phone :)

[Epic 4G General] DangerZone1223:
So happy as well!

I would also like to chime in and thank the XDA community as well. After months of debating whether or not I should update to DK28 Froyo, I decided to take the plunge yesterday. After you have all the software downloaded, phone hooked up to your computer, and Odin ready to flash for you... everything makes sense.

I can kinda see why Samsung/Sprint is taking too long to have the update come out. To update everything including all of your apps, settings, contacts, and saved messages all for Ma and Pa Epic 4G user without calling Sprint and complaining why something got deleted... I can see why. Re-configuring my contacts was a pain in my ass last night! My GPS didn't work, so I also had to do the GPS trick by entering in ##74 whatever and entering in my MSL, but it worked!

However, after all is said and done... THIS PHONE ROCKS!!! It's faster, the new music player is BADASS, everything WORKS, and I'm very happy. Thanks, XDA!

Agree.

I've lurked on XDA for a long time, didn't end up joining until sometime last year just so I could download some wallpaper or something.

Well I had no issues with my Epic anyway, but gave in to temptation and loaded the DK28 leak 2-3 days after it surfaced... kind of liked it but it was a little buggy on mine. I eventually went full tilt and loaded Bonsai at 1.1.2, had a blast with it getting the best of 2.2 without a lot of the bugs of DK28.

A week or so ago I switched to TrulyEpic, and holy cow, I love my phone so much now. It may not have the impressive bench #s of Bonsai (close), but man is it ever stable. It's like a rock, that thing is the best thing to ever happen to my phone, and I am so glad XDA and it's members are here to provide stuff like this for us. Apart from official froyo, I'm good for the long run now and getting way more enjoyment out of my phone than I thought I could.

Omg @Rockstar thats funny, I was just about to type that **** down but you beat me to the punch. There has been so much negativity in this forum, that alot of times I think we forget how good we actually have it. Alot of us then revert to taking everyone on here for granted. Sure were not the biggest forum, we dont have the most Roms, but the devs we do have are dedicated and do a wonderful job. We should all be gracious whether they ask for donations or not, because regardless they are all making XDA a better place, and making smartphones in general fun for all of us for years past, and years to come!
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
+1 for this post.

Recently I flashed back to di18. I wasn't having any luck with the froyo rims. Gps didn't work, slow auto rotate, and lags and hangs hit me with no matter what rom I flashed. Now that the devs have rolled ext4 conversion and rooting into flashing clockwork I loaded midnight and my phone is amazing. No hangs,gps locks within seconds, the.fix for auto rotate... I can honestly say screw the official update. I for one don't need it anymore. Thank you xda :-)

[Desire General] number16:
Just moved from WM (Diamond) to Droid and loving the desire so far, however there's 1 problem that drives me nuts.

I've setup my Desire to receive mail from yahoo, as well as a few other POP3 and IMAP email accounts I have, and while the phone does download emails according to schedule, all downloaded email are marked as UNREAD whether they are actually read or not.

This happens using the MAIL application that comes with the phone (I'd think it's a goggle app, not a HTC app), but also the K-9 Mail app.

This problem also happens on 2 different ROMs ... so it's not a ROM problem.

It's extremely annoying because I keep getting notifications of 'new' emails that I've already read!

This does not happen for gmail if I use the gmail app ... but gmail is not my primary email account.

I never had this problem in my WM days neither.
[Desire General] Tillus:
that is, because the mail app actully downloads new emails (via pop3) and doesnt know, if you already read the mails elsewhere.

Go to properties and change the protocol to IMAP. (and the according adresses and ports).

Here is some more update hype just like the earlier hype that caused a lot of concern among WP7 users. Hype or misreporting? Nevertheless, it is reports like this that are causing a lot of anxious people to be annoyed with MS, myself included. This is a quote from Daily Tech. A link to the full story is also provided:

"Second, like Android, Microsoft is pursuing an aggressive update schedule, which should help it. It plans to deliver a pair of major updates this spring, which will bring customers copy/paste and multi-tasking. These updates will "catch it up" with its competitors, so to speak. This is definitely a positive for Microsoft, and should greatly help the platform's image."
