Hi, can someone please help me. I upgraded my nexus one to 2.3 and it wasn't working good so I tried to flash another rom onto it but I couldn't. Now the phone won't even work it just shows the loading screen and never boots up. Also I can't get into recovery mode. I would really appreciate if someone can help me.

[HD2 General] Archer:
Make sure you have an official ROM from the HTC site...

http://www.htc.com/

It'll ask for your IMEI code to ensure that you download the correct one. Once you've got it up and running again then you can look into HSPL if you want a custom ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehkingo:
I'm not sure how this could've happened, but here's the deal:

Under the majority of my contacts, there are SEVERAL profiles merged together. These profiles all have the EXACT same information. This makes texting almost like a scavenger hunt.

For example: I want to text "andrew", so I type in "andrew" in the To: field, and a popup comes up with:

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

etc etc

Andrew A 777-777-7777

Andrew A 777-777-7777

Andrew A 777-777-7777

etc.

Andrew B 888-888-8888

Andrew B 888-888-8888

Andrew B 888-888-8888

etc.

I've tried deleting all contacts but as soon as it syncs with google, the problem re-arises. I've looked through my google contacts (through gmail) but there's no repeats! So really, i have no idea what the issue is, but would love to resolve it asap.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I should note that I "deleted" all contacts by going to settings -> applications -> manage -> all -> and clearing data from contacts and contacts storage
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdixon4az:
Do you also synch with your PC? Have you had to replace your phone recently? I had this happen when I did my first sync to the PC after getting a new phone. I had to remove all the duplicates on the PC to stop it from duplicating on the phone.

My other thought is it may be your friends from Facebook. Do you have Facebook set up on your phone? If they have phone numbers in their Facebook profile the phone will add them.

Finally, if neither of these apply I would do into each duplicate contact and find out where the phone says it is coming from. For example, if the contact info was synced from your Gmail account it will say Gmail under the name. If it was manually entered into the phone and/or synched from your PC it will say Phone under the name. If it was pushed to the phone from an Exchange mail account it will say Exchange under it. Maybe tracking down where the duplicates are coming from will help you get it resolved.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryandoubleu:
I had the same issue so I went to menu>accounts & sync and made sure I only had one profile syncing contacts. After that I went through and deleted all contacts. Then go to gmail(if you created a gmail account for your phone) and pull up the contacts section. Go through and delete/merge your contacts. Then go back to menu>accounts and sync, and sync your gmail contacts after the modification.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehkingo:
I have never synced with my PC, but this IS on a new ROM. I didn't ahve this issue on the old ROM. Also, these are all gmail contacts. I checked my gmail contact list, and there's no duplicates.

I have two profiles that sync on my phone: facebook and google. Manually deleting the contacts would take forever, and I'm not sure if that would fix the problem, considering that deleting contact data previously didn't.

Also, as stated previously, I checked my contacts list through gmail and there were no duplicates.

I think this problem stems from myself accidentally hitting "import all" when choosing which vcf file to import. I've made several over the course of the last half year, so that may be the reason.

Another interesting thing I've noticed: If I manually delete a bunch of duplicated on my phone, the numbers STILL show up when I'm entering a name into the "To:" section. So I'm down to just one "Andrew 555-555-5555" in my contacts app, but when I type in Andrew to send him a text I still get:

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

Andrew 555-555-5555

etc.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryandoubleu:
It may seem that way...

You may want to drop the facebook contacts, it doesnt add anything except a picture maybe a phone number if the person entered it and email address.

I know deleting your contacts sounds like a pain on the phone but just do all of them. when you log onto Gmail it has some simple tools that make a large task take about 5 minutes. I had 500 contacts on my gmail contacts and it took me less than 5 minutes to compress it to 150.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06chaynes:
Hey guys I've been having a few issues that I can't seem to find any information on. Ok on the stock ROM when you receive a call or a notification of any kind it will pause any music playing (either with the music player or pandora or what have you). But when using Assonance or Serendipity (I've had this issue with both) the music is muted but continues playing which means you miss whatever portion of the song until the call/notification tone is over. Also when I did receive a call and I had something plugged into the audio out it would allow me to hear the other person through the speakers (I use this most in my car). If anyone can help me at all with these issues I would greatly appreciate it!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Okay, there was a request that was made to modify the default location (wikipedia) that you are taken to when you highlight a word on a webpage in the stock browser, and then select the magnifying glass to issue a search.

By default, as mentioned, the highlighted search term(s) goes to Wikipedia, with the option to switch, via the icons at the bottom, to either 'translate' or 'dictionary'.

This quick little "tweak" will remove wikipedia as the default lookup location (and remove it all together as an option), and in its place, conduct a google search/loookup instead.

I know this probably has a pretty limited / small audience, but for those who use that feature in their browser, I too agree it makes a whole lot more sense to have the lookup go to Google, rather than Wikipedia, so I figured I'd release it in a thread.

Flash the attached via recovery if you are so included :).

I recently flashed the new Cyanogen mod 7 nightly and The new google apps. As I started to experiment with this rom, I noticed that i cannot download any market apps at all. Whenever i press download, the "downloading" notification would pop up for like a second or two and it would then disappear. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctormetal:
Did you try to clear data and cache for the market? That might help. It does not seem like a CM7 issue as it is working perfectly here.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnAndroid:
Yeah I have tried that actually. Still the same problem..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Wipe all the data including both caches, flash the build and then flash the apps. Things are working fine with the CM7 builds since I use it. Maybe a radio update if your not up to date ish?

Same Issue

I'm having the same issue on my HD2 Typhoon Cyanogen 7. I was able to download apps from the market for about an hour, right after first launch - now (3 hours later), nothing. I don't have the ability to click 'clear cache' for the Market and I can't seem to download from the online market, either. I don't know whether I should try to clean-install Typhoon or switch to another ROM - or if this problem will just 'go away'. If anyone has further advice, or wants any info from my device, please send me a message.

Update: ROM Manager won't do anything, but I'm not too worried about that. Booting while holding 'Power' gets me to the Bootloader, from there I can get to the Clockwork Recovery. I tried 2 fresh wipes of Typhoon CM7 before throwing in the towel. Another ROM installed and I can download anything I want from the Market.

Ditto here. I installed on a full wipe and market is not working. Are you using wifi or 3g?

Hi,

Had the same problem, with cyanogen Mod 7.

First with stock (cyanogen) Market, then even after updating with the new market 2.3.4. Always the same, trying to connect and failure when downloading, no FC at all.

I just solved the problem by flashing again the radio 5.14.05.17 ! (I had this one before flashing Cyanogen and all the other communications were ok, except the market downloads so I didn't think it could come from there ...)

Hope it helps you ;)

I simply solved this problem thanks Titanium Backup that takes back the Market (app+data). Obviusly you had had a backup!

EDIT: doesn't work...after reboot market doesn't exist... I've to rebuild it from TB every time.. that sucks

RE-EDIT: finally works!! I installed it from a backup and then I started it after flashing again gapps(if you don't have a backup you can unzip gapps.zip on pc then move the apk vending to the phone: install it with a file explorer) Then I entered my gmail username and psw(<--- important step) and now it works great! I've made also a reboot to test it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kvaks:
Yeah, I have the same problem with my freshly installed, latest stable CM (7.0.3-desire). Not all downloads are affected, it's about a third to half of them. If I get the apk file in some other way, installing it works fine. It's just the download from the market server that stops after a second or so (or perhaps never even starts properly).

I've tried to clear market cache, tried rebooting, tried versions 2.3.3 and 2.3.6 of Market app, to no avail.

When you guys say "flash this" or "flash that", does that mean "update"?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] do0b:

first i backed up my SD card, partition it with ROM Manager, downloaded S2E from the market, check Download Cache, reboot. done. anything and everything can be downloaded now.

I managed to fix with re-flashing CM 7.03 and wiping data. For a couple of days it worked properly. Now from time to time it happens again and the only solution is restarting the phone.

Hi

I'm a huge file manegament freak.

Switching from a feature phone, I was shocked at the mess on my SD card :mad:.

So I ask the question is there anyway to clean up the main directory (tons of Browser, android, adobe, app, bugreports, logs folders). Like Putting all the app folders and android stuff in just 1 folder. Or hiding the files in the phone by putting "." (think this is how android marks hidden folders) infront (which for some reason I'm not allowed in Windows).

Also, is it safe to mark folders as "hidden" in Windows (will android still be able to use them).

One more thing, am I able to acess the 1,5 GB worth of built-in memory on my phone in Windows.

Any other tips are appreciated too!

Hi,

Due to HTC's special touches, the recovery image doesnt stay flashed, and on normal boot its flashed over (meaning if i try to go to recovery after a normal boot, i get the red triangle stuff, and have to pull the battery). I was wondering if this would potentially cause troubles if i was trying to flash a custom ROM from recovery? in other notes, i do find sometimes i have to pull the battery 4 or 5 times to get it to normally boot (thats without holding the buttons >.>).

HTC HERO recovery image flashing problems

I am having exactly the same problem!

I did a quite a bit of research on how to root, backup and flash my HERO and every guide I found describes the process using Universal AndRoot + Rom Manager and it seems there should be no problems. I already rooted my phone successfully, installed Rom Manager and flashed either ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 or RA Recovery 1.7.0.1 which are able to boot but only once. The next time I reboot I get the red triangle warning and it loads into stock recovery (by pressing vol_up + powroff buttons), so the custom recovery lasts only one boot cycle. I was able to backup but I don't want to risk to wipe and flash since there is a chance it might stuck in the bootscreen loop afterwards and I won't be able to do anything.

There is a thing with s-off and SPrecovery which helps to resolve the problem but it doesn't look like there is anything for HERO.

Any help would be appreciated.

ps I tried to manually flash recovery from inside the phone and from windows command line with the same result.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] imilka:
Made this while experimenting with RAM... Found it quite good during 2 days testing :)

Quick notes:

1) System is fully loaded into RAM, you will need to modify CWR flash.cfg and reflash partitions (read below)

2) You can't modify system via Root explorer or etc.

Read below how it can be done.

3) Uhm... nothing more.

4)Replace stock launcher with other btw, it's laggy even with this configuration sometimes :D

(ADW EX - my choice)

clean, stock, fast and stable (should be stable :P)

FM Radio

CM6

easy system modifying

~15seconds boot time

rooted

deodexed and zipaligned

free space after install - about 250M on EU device

No screenshots, sorry... haven't you seen stock froyo? :)

1) Download latest CWR with system layout (any)

2) Modify flash.cfg like this:

misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot ya|boot|ro 100M
system ya 15M
cache ya 10M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

3) Flash partitions (run DAF.exe)

4) Boot into recovery

5) Select Mounts and Storage > Mount USB Storage

DONT COPY ZIP USING MAGLDR, USE ONLY THIS WAY! (or cardreader)

6) Copy zip to SD card

7) Select Install zip from sdcard > Select zip from sdcard

8) Select uploaded zip, select yes, wait

9) Reboot, wait

As I already said, it's not possible to modify system using Root Explorer, ADB or else.

So, to modify system:

1) Make .ramfs folder in root of your sd card

Download .ramfs folder if you can't create it

2) Now .ramfs acts like your /system, so create any files/folders you need to modify under .ramfs

Example: I need to modify framework-res.apk in /framework, here what I should do:

1) Copy .ramfs folder to sdcard root

2) Create framework folder in .ramfs

3) Copy framework-res.apk to framework folder

4) Reboot

Don't delete .ramfs after you made this!

If you delete this folder, system will be restored to default state. (your modified files will be replaced with default ones)

v0.3 - initial public release

v0.3 - http://code.google.com/p/imilka/downloads/detail?name=stockram03.zip

.ramfs folder - http://imilka.googlecode.com/files/ramfs.rar

Okay... I think that's all I wanted to say :)

Happy using... Hope everything is OK... at least it was OK for me :)
