[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randymids:
I am running ava z3 ROM with caulkins modded HTC 15 kernel. I flashed the latest radios w/ ra 2.2 recovery.

Now my download speed on 3g seems the same as it was 30-80 kbps and I upload around 150-200 kbps. I tried the http 3g fix in the epsd and it seems to have made no difference, I reversed it back and tested, either way I am downloading slow and uploading very fast.

Help please.

Does anyone have a blue touchwhiz contacts icon they could throw my way? I use to have it but accidentally deleted it. The standard orange/brown looking one kind of throws off my blue theme. Can't remember which custom rom had it. Thanks!

--Edit--

Never mind, finally found it.
[EVO 4G General] J-Bert:
Hopefully someone can answer this. Is there a way for my evo to run correctly in europe (england and france)?

I know sprint offers phones and plans that you can "rent", but id like to run my evo.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
I have heard people say that you can get on CDMA networks overseas, but that it will cost you an arm and a leg. Many people seem to prefer using some VOIP solution and wifi access. Unfortunately we aren't on a GSM phone where you could purchase a cheap SIM card for a little bit of usage.
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Answer: NO.

Why: CDMA (the technology that Sprint, Verizon, and MetroPCS use) is only used in North America, and certain parts of Asia (namely, Japan and China each have a carrier or two that use it). GSM is used everywhere else.

The EVO has CDMA and WiMax. It does not have GSM.

I'm not sure how Skype works on Android (haven't tried it). But assuming Skype works somehow, couldn't you just latch onto some sort of wifi?
[EVO 4G General] rysbrnr:
Can't use the EVO to make actual cellular phone calls in Europe. Like stated above, the EVO is a CDMA phone and the only standard used there is GSM. You can however, use the EVO for just about everything else while you are there. My brother just came back from France last week and he was there for a month so before he went we had to figure out what we could do with our EVO's while he was there and I was in the US. When you are there turn on "airplane mode" and leave it like that the whole time you are there. This way, the phone isn't draining battery power trying to search for a CDMA tower to connect to.

The main thing is you will NEED TO HAVE WI-FI access to do anything I'm describing below.

I used to Tikl, push to talk app to keep in contact with my brother. I didn't have much luck using Qik, but I was able ooVoo to do video chat with him. I was still able to use Google Lattitude to see where he was at. His GPS actually worked there also. It was not as fast like here in the US but he was able to find his location.

My sister is in Manchester, England right now with her EVO the same thing applies there also. I do seem to notice that public wi-fi access is much more readily available in England than France. Today I "Lattituded" while she was at some hookah bar and was able to do video chat with everyone there while I was sitting at home in Iowa.

If you are currently using some kind of VOIP app now, make sure all the people you want to be in contact with are using it too. For a psuedo SMS app we used "Whatsapp" to handle our overseas text messaging since it uses internet rather than cellular service.

Hope this helps.

GPS will work anywhere.. it is a satilite signal..

the only issue will be the map you need to use with that signal.

why it is taking longer.. you have moble networkturned off. they phone use moble network to get quick read on you. the GPS is to fine tune you down to with in 9 meters or so.
[EVO 4G General] Phillysphinest1:
Just went to France and ROME this past Sept. My evo was a paper weight. I just used it for the time & to take pictures...
[EVO 4G General] klquicksall:
Just get a Sprint world phone from eBay. HTC PRO2 for like 100 buck. There are cheaper ones also. Then take it to sprint to get a sim card. It will work anywhere in Europe. When you get to Europe buy a cheap prepaid sim card to get a local number if thats what you want. Also tell Sprint to unlock it. They will since there is no contract on it. When you get back just switch back to your EVO.
[EVO 4G General] ytwytw:
no way to get evo working in Europe since there is no CDMA network

U can use skype+wifi hotspot there, tons and tons are FREE!!!
[EVO 4G General] goodfellaslxa:
You can also get a google-voice number, a sipgate account, and add the sipgate number to google voice, then install a sip-compatible client on the evo. (Fring does work). People will be able to call your google-voice number and it will RING on wifi.

... though I do think Skype has a plan that gives you a number, I don't know what it costs.

[Android Software Development] vancouver_hawk:
Hi, is it possible to create a app that will just contain a link to mobile website (bookmark of some sort but an actual app). So when users click on the app on their devices they are taken directly to my mobile website. I know there is google app inventor but I couldn't find tutorial on how to do that. Any idea?
[Android Software Development] nonini:
Yes, an app can either launch a url which will open in the phones browser or you can put a webview(browser) inside the App.
[Android Software Development] vancouver_hawk:
do you know if I can find a tutorial on how to do that? How do I make custom app icon and so on?
[Android Software Development] athornz:

[Android Software Development] nonini:
The icons you need to make in a graphics program and output them in the required sizes, go to the official android dev site there are photoshop templates and everything.
[Android Software Development] cmoney12051:
Its not that had to do with app inventor. There are two ways. One which will launch the defualt browser to the site (easy) or one which will create a webview inside the app using a third party app (hard). I made a youtube video on how to do it the browser way a while back. It takes about 5 min. Then another 10min if you want to put it on the market. Both vies can be found on youtube by searching cmoney12051

great job yoshi!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Ahhh look at those beautiful stock fonts and stock GB theme. I like it already, and I'm still downloading!

Thanks for your hard work Yoshi.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
wait til you drive it, it is SWEETNESS!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Ok, looking great so far! About 58 seconds to the swipe screen from cold boot. Feels snappy to start, thanks for including Zeam.

Any initial instructions for setting...

Compcache or heap size?

And leave JIT on?

And application install location?

Thanks a lot!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
i find it works well with jit you can take off surface dithering if you want also compcach at 18 works fine and vm at 16 but you can try vm at 32 should work just fine as well
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Cool, so it's not using a 32% Compcache hack that will get messed up if I adjust it?

And what about default app install location?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
i left compache at 18, turn vm heap to 32, took off dithering and added lock home...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
no, not the 32, and it should be a2ext...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
OK, so I dont need to set it to "External" to make apps automatically be installed onto my EXT4 partition?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
no you do not have to change anything just start installing apps and they will go to the ext ^__^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
I love it. This thing is looking really, really slick!

I'll do a more complete review after I get a chance to play with it a bit more.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok do enjoy ^__^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ATeam-MrT:
Cool stuff :-)

I'm wondering if Ginger yoshi will run on 32A with a proper pershot kernel? Is there an SPL check in this rom?

Thx
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:
The screen animation doesn't work why?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joskevic:
I wanted to install this on my Magic 32A, but I got stuck on installation when checking for bootloader. I assume this is caused by the fact I'm trying to install a 32B rom on a 32A phone. However, I managed to get some 32B roms working (like yoshi 1.8 and 1.8.1) on my phone by just installing a 32A kernel after installing the rom.

Is there a way around this? Can I install Yoshi Ginger on my 32A phone? I'd love to run on Gingerbread by Yoshi!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
has not to the best of my knowledge beet tested on a 32a

also not sure if tested on 32a...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
which screen animation are you refering... mine work fine... did you do a 'clean' install?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
yes it was tested as I am one of those who did... my vmheap is set to 32 also... silly question to ask... did you do a clean install with adb or superwipe? also after the issues did you try to wipe/reinstall? is there an ext4 partition? and what device are you running?

edit: I already had launcher pro... and I also changed the theme... added a PIN lock... I don't have any issues.... also what perf settings did you change...?

I found these over at Android Central and thought I would bring them here and share them. They are the wallpaper dump from the 3.0 preview SDK, according to the original post. If these have been already posted, let me know, but I haven't been able to find them. They are very nice, and there is even an extra one from AC thrown in. :D Enjoy!

Hi Guys,

I'm a little new to all this so please bear with me..

Just rooted my MT4g and want to make a nandroid backup before i do anything. However i see that i need to use CWM to flash a custom recovery image in order to make the backup.

Is there anyway to reverse that recovery image back to stock? Incase i need to revert the phone completely back to stock...

Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortskoolbus:
Sorry, i think i found it!

I'm guessing this is it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843289

Please close this thread if that's it.. sorry for spamming. :o
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
If you completed the root process then you already have CwM recovery. Just use Rom Manager to make a backup. If you have to revert back to stock the process will reinstall the stock recovery img for you.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortskoolbus:
Hmm okay. I did successfully root the device and I was following this write up to backup the phone using nandroid which says i need to flash a custom recovery ROM.

I just tried to backup current ROM and it gives me a message saying i must flash CwM recovery first and gives me an option to install it. But i'm guessing it's possible to restore that from the link in my second post?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
You can use clockwork to restore your factory rom, but if you want to revert your recovery back to stock you will need to fastboot flash the stock recovery back on. This is assuming you have first flashed the stock rom which will leave you without	clockwork rom manager installed. There's a few unroot guides that will help you if you need to send your phone back to tmo. I would suggest becoming familiar with ADB and Fastboot. That knowledge will give you more options in a pinch.

Swyped on my rooted MyTouch4G
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortskoolbus:
Thanks much!

Yes i am doing a lot of reading right now, but wanted to make sure all the files i needed were out there for the MT4G already. Looks like the factory recovery is out there and it can be flashed back so i'm not to worried. :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
Yes all the files are out there that you would need to pretty much do whatever needed. Check out the links in my sig for some good things.

Guys,

I'm a HUGE fan of Case Mate and their Tough Cases. Myself use one, recommended atleast 8 friends I know who are either using a Desire HD, Nexus One or an iPhone 4 and they all have Case Mate's toughcase

They retail at $29.99, but looks like there is a sale going on - All Tough Cases selling for $9.99 (free standard shipping in the US)

You might want to check it out here

I recommend the Blue and Black or the Green and Black :)
[Nexus One Accessories] mindfrost82:
Great case. I had one that I sold with my original N1. Looks like they're temporarily out of stock now though :(
[Nexus One Accessories] JimSocks:
just buy the 2 pieces separate. same price.
[Nexus One Accessories] crawler9:
Thanks for the advice. Just picked them up separately.
[Nexus One Accessories] Xeniel:
Thanks for the heads up! Any problem with lint on the silicon?

BTW all of the colours are out of stock ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] crawler9:
However, they sent the pieces together in 1 box labeled Tough Case, already combined, as if I bought them as a single product.
[Nexus One Accessories] RuinerXL:
These remain out of stock. Some of the skins can be bought separately, but the shells aren't back yet. :(
[Nexus One Accessories] uoY_redruM:
Yeah, still out of stock.

I was considering giving it a try.
[Nexus One Accessories] RuinerXL:
Just spoke with a Case-Mate representative over the phone and was told that the Nexus One Tough Case is now discontinued and they do not have any more in stock. All they have left are the soft silicone inner skins that pair with the outer shell.

Kind of sad that a great phone that really isn't that old at all is already pretty tough to find good accessories for.
[Nexus One Accessories] chalisto:
I think about using a case like that for my N1. at the moment i am using the original nexus one case. but of course, it is not very safe compared to this case.
[Nexus One Accessories] RuinerXL:
I broke down and bought one of these cases on Amazon because I was unable to find one elsewhere. No one carries them and as my last post stated, they're discontinued by the manufacturer. Received the case yesterday and all I can say is that if you're on the fence about getting one, DO IT. The case fits PERFECTLY and feels very high quality. It doesn't gather an excessive amount of lint, and even comes with a nice microfiber cloth and clear screen protector. I already dropped the phone once today and the case did an absolutely beautiful job protecting the phone. Really too bad these aren't being made anymore.
[Nexus One Accessories] crawler9:
My only complaint about this case is the soft silicon skin under the trackball gets loose quickly. It still stays on, but doesn't look or feel as good.
[Nexus One Accessories] mrtoken:
Well just placed my order with amazon, problem is they wont ship to NZ so have a mate over in the US that comes back in a week or so, getting it sent to him and then he will bring it back :)
[Nexus One Accessories] JFrosty:
Well damn, looks like I got one just in time at the beginning of January! And it's a really great case. I sure feel like my Nexus One is safe in there.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sigma01:
Hey Guys,

I've been contemplating rooting my DHD for a while and have been looking up information on it for a while.

However, just a few questions before I undergo the journey of rooting my phone :P

Firstly, I'd just like to confirm the procedure of rooting my phone.

The general procedure for this would be;

a) Downgrading firmware from 1.72 -> 1.32

b) installing Visionary to attain permanent root.

c) Turning S-Off

d) Flash/Install a new rom.

Is that correct?

The main reason I want to attain root is to improve battery life. What is the best rom that achieves this? Also I love minimalistic skins and have a launcher pro skin that I have installed (which Imo looks absolutely beautiful :D [and made my work colleague jealous because his iPhone can't do that without it jailbreaked].

Question is - taking into account of battery life/eye candy, what would be the best rom to install? (HTC sense optional)

Also - i've been reading the lingo of "radio" s-off. What does this actually entail?

Finally a few more questions;

- How would I be able to backup my apps, settings, contacts, files etc on an unrooted phone?

- How long would this process approximately take? I've been reading that people have bricked their phones... How often does this occur?

(note - for reference, I have installed CFW on my PSP via hard-modding my battery - So I have limited experience in this; but nothing involving this much lingo. -_-)

Cheers,

Thanks in advanced guys! :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
I found rooting my DHD somewhat confusing. visionary did not work for me so I used the instruction on cyanogenmod wiki and those worked just fine.

I had the asian model and my version was 1.72.405.6 but had no problem with rooting and the fixes were not applied to my image.

backing up from unroot image? the rooting procedure will leave the original image just gives you root. so you can either use titanium backup or the CWD for backing up. no need to worry about that.

as for the process I was confused so it took me 2-3 days of error and trail to get it done. I had one case of reboot loop but got fixed with a proper wipe.

for the rom I am using MODACO. if you pay the support fee you can use their kitchen to customize your image and make it faster if you need. battery life issue had something to do with one of the original images if you use any other rom you should be fine.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sigma01:
Hey guys, just thought I should give you an update on how things went.

I have successfully rooted my phone and installed the Core Droid Rom on it :) (I'm a sucker for eye candy)

The way I listed was pretty much spot on. I followed the guides from both here at xda and also the cyanogenmod wiki.

General process was;

Down grading from 1.72 -> 1.32 (using psneuter).

Installing Visionary for Temporary into Permanent Root

Flashing the Radio S-Off and t hen Eng S-Off using the 1 click tools provided by the helpful members here.

After that it was just easily enough to install new custom roms via Rom Manager :)

It wasn't as hard as I thought. hahaha

Also - I backed up all my things using My Backup Pro (which does cost money)

after one time tested your theme the normal theme isn't satisfying.

yes this a really good start in a new day.

i will give you some credits for your effort.

great! :D

Edit: Batterie and lockscreen does't change - still the original but this can't make me sad! i love this theme.

when flashing this theme on nightly 22 it works very good, only the in-call-screen doesn't change. On the lockscreen is a white bar on top.
[Desire Themes and Apps] david1171:
Updated to cm_bravo_full-23.zip and cm_bravoc_full-22.zip.

@Jamin_1, I may have forgotten to add something in, let me know what works/doesn't work in the new version.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jamin_1:
thanks a lot. i will test it soon ;)

your version 21 runs really good on the nightly 23 - only a few bugs. but I accept this for your brilliant theme.

so I test your 23 theme :D

bug report: i got no problems while flashing und booting after flashing yout theme. but there is still the white bar on top at the screen with the pin-entry and on the lockscreen. do you know this bug or should I send you a screenshot? the secend bug is in the standard android clock app. in landscape mode the clock is only shown half. all the other themed apps look brilliant and I can't see any more bugs (=

by the way, thank you for your 23 version!

PS: I'm sorry about my bad english :mad:
[Desire Themes and Apps] david1171:
Your English is good and completely understandable (I live in southern California lol). I am not able to replicate either one of those bugs so if you are able to take a screen of them it would help.
