[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mengbo:
unlock the network lock for cappy was pretty easy before, i am not sure the latest build changes that.

once you unlock it, it will NOT relock even if you upgrade your rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kakahoang:
yup, I unlocked my phone by a software on Market SGS unlock tool or sth like that
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickm50:
Galaxy_S Unlock is the tool! Worked for me!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] est_cap:
Thanks for answering!

kakahoang: wich model do you have? and... did you buy it in Rogers or AT&T (i mean, for your profile info). i896 (Rogers) and i897 (AT&T) are EXACTLY the same, except when it comes to UNLOCKING.... the AT&T is easy.. but the Rogers one, is trickier.

I will buy it in Rogers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] est_cap:
Same question: did you buy it in Rogers?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickm50:
I sure did. I unlocked it just to see if it would work, and it did.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] est_cap:
EXCELENT! =D

what do you think? does it worth it to bring one here and be "sure" that , excepting a failure coming from me, it will work? =D when did u buy it (to see the stock and maybe new sub-models of crap like that xD) did it came with 2.1 outtof the box?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc_woe_is_me:
Well I got a new replacement phone today and I was setting it up how my old one was. I rooted with no prob, installed forever with no problems. Then I went into ROM manager and downloaded the skyraider athena ROM and checked buttons for wipe data/cache and backup. I walked away for about 10 mins so it could do its thing, then it boots into recovery. I clicked REBOOT and it rebooted but went back into recovery again. it wont actually boot up all the way and only goes into CWM recovery. It is version 3.0.0.5 with orange text ( i used to have green,I think)

Please someone help me resolve this, I need my phone for navigation purposes like an hour ago. Please help! Thank you!

You will go back to a stock 2.2, from there try again. Next time you flash the rom, try downloading it from XDA here, put it on your sd card, boot into recovery, then flash. That might cut down on any errors you could possibly encounter.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
Flash an older version of CWM, scroll to bottom of page in ROM Manager and pick say 2.0.5, but not v3

[HTC Inspire 4G] milleirish:
So far I love the phone. The feel and weight of the phone just seems better then my Captivate(which I gave to my wife). After not getting data on the phone unless I had WiFi on kind of sucked, but if you make a new network. You will be able to gain data back.

The only thing I am not liking is when I set up my HTC sense with Facebook, it put all my friends from facebook into my contacts list in my phone. I do not want all my friends on the list. I have tried and figure out how to delete from the list but cant figure it out. Anyone know how?

I also side loaded a few apps using the SLW program, once you download HTC sync on your computer it was easy.

I cant wait until this phone gets rooted so I can go in and change some stuff around, like ringtones. You can have custom ringtones when the phone is not plugged in to the USB but once you plug the USB in, it reverts back to the stock ringtones because it thinks shuts off your SD Card. Well you know what, I guess I can have the option to only have it charge will plugged in. That might work.

Other then that me loves the phone. Glade my wife had an upgrade so I could get the phone for $79.99 from Costco and a free charger with it. She loves my old Captivate so I was like hell ya ill trade ya!
[HTC Inspire 4G] seanfinn:

I have the Evo for sprint which should be similar. Open your People/contacts app, hit menu, and you should see an option that says 'View'. Select view to choose which contacts you want displayed and deselect your Facebook account.
[HTC Inspire 4G] milleirish:
Ok so in the people and contacts it has my correct contacts. What am talking about is when you look at the phone on the homescreen you see the button that says phone. If you click on that it will show every one of my Facebook friends, even the ones they I dont have in my contact list. I dont want them there.
[HTC Inspire 4G] aimfire72:

Also, for those that just want to install apps and leave the phone stock you can go to this thread created by me: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=943174

The phone feels so polished and the screen is awesome, no Craptivate screen but it will turn heads.

We have accomplished so much in so little time.

Thanks to all the devs and porters out there, this is already a more than worthwhile device and for the price you can not beat it.

Atrix is just a bad memory of Motoblur hell, good luck trying to even root that damn thing.. hahaha
[HTC Inspire 4G] abanh:
Ok I know what you're saying, and I didn't even realized my phone did that until you just mentioned it. I didn't see a way to get rid of them either.

If this is bothering you because you have to scroll through so many more names to get to the contact you want to dial, have you tried the t9 smart dialer feature? Lets say you want to dial 'John', instead of scrolling all the way down to his name, just spell out his name via t9 (5 for 'j', 6 for 'o', 4 for 'h', etc). The contacts that match what you're typing will appear and you don't have to scroll through all the names. My Evo and other HTC sense phones do this ( stock android doesn't, but you can download other dialers in the market that do). If you already knew this and just don't want the names to appear, can't help you there. :)

I really, really like this phone. My ear speaker is great, although the external speaker is a little weak. Not a huge deal though, just had to select the high pitched notifications to be sure to hear them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blaze0303:
I thought it was interesting that Facebook .com thought my phone was a nexus one
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
i went to check this out in the store today. a few thoughts

-size is great. i compared it to my nexus one w/seidocase and it is only slightly larger... like less than a .25" larger in width and length

-weight is great. very comparable to n1 w/case

-sense 2.0 looked pretty slick.

-very fast... zero lag.

-my only stickler was the screen. i could see the "grid" dots on the display unit. is this typical of slcd?

[HTC Inspire 4G] simulatordos:
This kicks the captivates ass all around, even unrooted with stock rom. Soooo glad I pulled the trigger... nice to have a decent exchange email client as part of the basic package (sorry touchdown, but the integration is a big plus... I hated the separate address books).
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
The more I use my phone the more I realize everything works and works well.

Have installed pretty much everything there is and it plays or runs them without a hiccup.

Obviously the only apps it will not run are the ones that require root. My plan is to do this very soon so I can take advantage of those as well.

Every single game I've installed is smooth with no lag.

Emulators work with zero issues, my plan is to try the the psx one next.

You can not measure the battery life right away, it has to get used to a few charges first. See the Desire HD forums and they will say the same.

I've made some calls and can say that it sounds great, I've tried both the loudspeaker and the ear speaker and both sound fine to me.

Obviously the small speaker will not be that loud especially at first. Still planning to use DSP Manager to see if it fixes it.

I've still to try out the gps while moving in the vehicle as well.

Build quality is very satisfying and is what's expected from HTC.

Where I had trouble getting 3G I am now getting a constant H+ according to the phone.

What else can I say I made an excellent choice and with the Sideload Wonder Machine, root, radio and custom ROMs there's room to make this phone even better with those options.

Hi!

I'm trying out a reg hack for Samsung Focus on HD7 which is detailed here.

As you might know there is a huge performance miss on HD7 compared to HD2 WP7. See it on youtube.

I thought that this tweak could enhance HD7 performance. Phone is stable for an hour right now with those registry settings and I "feel" a little performance boost in menus and app startups but it might be subjective.

Can someone compare HD2 and HD7 tweaked and report back improvements?

Regards, Cina.
[HD7 General] evolutionqy7:
Any effects on battery life with the tweak?
[HD7 General] cina:
Hi!

As it is weekend right now I do not use the phone for calling a lot. On Monday I'll be working in 24 so it will be more convenient to tell than.

But it is rock solid so far just as before.

Hope this does improve things, HD7 does sometimes feel sluggish when opening applications, I wish they had used proper inbuilt memory chips rather than a memory card as this really does limit the speed of the whole device

Anyone else have this issue?

Latest vegan

Using original 16 gig micro sd from my droid.

Fat32

I loaded a video from my laptop ubuntu 10.10 into root of sd.

Test playback on ubuntu from sd.

Safely remove drive.

Power off gtab

Insert sd

Power on gtab

Video shows up and plays on gtab with doubletwist.

(video was converted to mp4 via arista transcoder galaxy tab preset)

Power off gtab

power back on

Video is gone.

Even videos in a bunch of nested folders on the sd I did not try to play (.mov vids) are gone. The folders and other non video files are still there.

Should I not be using sdcard2 at all?

Any issues with usb flash?

Thanks
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
place an empty file named ".nomedia" in any directory on the sdcard that you have video files. They won't be deleted
[G Tablet General] wrekertab:
Sweet! Thanks.
[G Tablet General] rezmax:
.nomedia fix

I created a new folder. Nomedia onto root of sdcard2 using iFileManager.

Didn't work. Files with subfolders (videos) still missing.

In fact, this sdcard2 reports it is empty. Like all space is free minus the folders.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
Yes.

Read post #2 again carefully.
[G Tablet General] khedquist:
Do you mean create a file or a folder named .nomedia?

I can create a folder but not a file. what am I doing wrong?

thanks
[G Tablet General] Bawlz McNutt:
During the brief period of time I used vegan tab I had this same issue and was able to resolve it by making a folder called .nomedia and putting the videos in there but I was then required to manually specify to my video app what folder the videos were in.

I dont remember if I tried making the .nomedia file in the video folder or not so that might work as well but I do know for sure that any video in the .nomedia folder will not get deleted.
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
To repeat post #2, above:

I don't know how to make it any clearer than that.

There are a number of ways to create an empty .nomedia file.

1. Create a new text file with some name and then rename it to .nomedia.

2. Run this command inside a Terminal Emulator window:

gTablet$ [B]touch /mnt/sdcard/SOME/DIR/.nomedia[/B]

3. Or, this one:

gTablet$ [B]> /mnt/sdcard/SOME/DIR/.nomedia[/B]

4. Or, this one using adb:

C:\> [B]adb shell touch /mnt/sdcard/SOME/DIR/.nomedia[/B]

As everyone will soon find out, the battery cover is a pain to get open. I spoke to someone with HTC and they said that this is a know issue and it HAS BEEN FIXED, the bad news is that they made 300,000 of them before anyone noticed...

So you have to decide: deal with the battery cover issue, or be an early adopter (I think the choice is quite clear)

I picked one up at Costco and we gave up at the store after about 10 minutes. I took it home and was able to use my health insurance card (slightly thinner and more flexible than a credit card) to pry the door open, but unfortunately I scratched a small part of the body of the phone while trying other methods :( At least the insurance card was good for something, because it's not good for actually paying for healthcare!

Ah well, I accidentally dropped my Nexus One shortly after I first got it and put a nice sized scratch in it, so I'll live.

I did find that once I got it off the first time, it's a lot easier now. I can pop it off no problem.

First impressions of the phone itself are that it's awesome. It's a lot faster than the N1 and I'm really liking HTC Sense (this is my first Sense phone).

[HTC Inspire 4G] palletguru:
Watching the YouTube videos of early review units, I knew this would be a problem when I picked ny phone up at Costco on Friday.

One reviewer (I can't remember which one) stated it was easier to open the battery compartment by sticking your thumbnail under the volume down portion of the rocker rather than the notch they give you. I had to use a fair amount of force, but got it open without mangling the cover or scratching the case.

So, for the first time, put your thumbnail under the volume rocker - NOT the groove provided. After a couple of battery swaps, it works just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] drummer07:
wish I would have known this earlier, but regardless it is a problem that you shouldn't even have to deal with. The sim cover is so flimsy that it folded in half in the store. Battery door/phone got scratched as well. Returned the phone right there in the store.

Use all fingernails and pry under the volume rocker too. Mine popped right open.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PsylockeSmythe:
Didn't have any trouble with the battery cover. I did end up with a unit that had a crack on the sim/memory card cover when I bought the phone. I ended up taking it back to Radio Shack and they ended up giving me another phone.

There was someone else there at the same time I was that had the same issue with the sim/memory card cover being cracked.

Both of them looked to be cracked in the same spot. He just had them pull a battery cover off another phone.

Ah, you have given more information than I got here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=951997

So I think I can give you a clearer answer.

Boot into the bootloader. Steps to do so, according to a quick peek via Google, are to hold SEND and MENU while powering up the phone. (My phone is different). From the bootloader, you should be able to select Recovery. From there, you should be able to restore from the Nandroid backup you took. For other options, such as Fastboot, see the link in the thread I referenced.
