TEP covers esrp and erp. Both 4 dollars separately or 7 combined. ERP is insurance covered by asurion. ESRP is equipment service and repair covered in store.

I do beleive most of the issue is asurion crying because they are not taking nearly the amount of deductibles as they were before.

My theory as well...although screens we use at our s tore do cost 100+
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
the screens cost 100 plus? thats more money then u pay online to get an original display...
[EVO 4G General] ramiss:
So then what does ESRP cover? Not much apparently! If Sprint is going to send us to Asurion then they need to stop charging us the extra $3.
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Yeah pretty crazy. But its the same with other phones, blackberry trackballs for example are like

$30 from our parts place. And its in other industries too; car industry - look at original parts price, ridiculous!!!
[EVO 4G General] silverjack:
Do your. Homework you have the option to pay 4 or 7. The esrp covers the cost of in warrenty repairs and swaps. I'm sure some of the repairs that are covered under esrp like broken usb ports are outside of manudature warrenty.

The more I think about this the more pissed I get. Really WTF are we paying insurance for if we have to pay another 100 dollars on top of the 84 a year. I recently went from one line of insurance to three lines. That's over 200 dollars a year. This isn't worth it. I can buy parts off eBay and fix the **** myself way cheaper. I'm going to actually stop at a Sprint shop and find out what exactly the specifics are on this.

Not sure if they're going to make a thread here or not, so I'll share.

See the thread here:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...resent-beta-release-d2g_romer-get-r-done.html

Looks like you flash a D2 ROM, and then flash it with another "patcher" that makes it work on your D2G. Sensors do not appear to be working properly, so those do NOT work.

Again, see the thread for details.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
This is great! Now our d2g's have more roms to choose from, and it should make it a lot easier for devs to port their roms over :D
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] jh13:
Yeah, the Get R dOne guys have a dedicated site for the D2G, I signed up just yesterday. It definitely is looking more positive. I have started to get withdrawals from not flashing roms after being on the Eris for the last 2 years.

http://droidtwoglobalgetrdonedevteam.webs.com/
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
i just flashed liberty 1.5 using their method and it works!!!

there are a few bugs, like the sensors not working, but besides that it runs perfectly.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] bobrowley:
Get R DONE team said : I flashed a rom that would not let me boot back into Clockwork recovery (gummyjar). As of now, I don't know how/why that would happen so be careful, and do not do this unless you are comfortable using the SBF released by TBH.

As far as I know, Liberty was based in gummayjar. Could you check if your phone can boot back to Clockwork recovery?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
I did, I only flashed it to see if it would work and after that I booted in recovery mode and restored a backup I had made. Just make sure you have droid 2 bootstrap
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
so does this mean d2 themes will work once you do this?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Well I did install a galaxy s theme for liberty while I was using it, so I guess the answer is yes
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] buryboi:
As far as I know, the themes should work.

Liberty toolbox, however, is smart enough to know that you aren't really a D2 and wont let you download the themes, you have to manually download and flash them.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
Liberty toolbox let me download themes and flash them just fine...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] KHancock321:
Oh. Thank. God...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] gifferjesus:
Yeah, I'm done waiting for updates. Going Liberty tonight.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] KHancock321:
Pretty much...

I wish I could take my donation back, lol.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] gifferjesus:
You know what... if the light senors worked perfectly, this would be the best rom I ever ran. (Liberty.) It loaded on with NO issues. Only problem is no auto brightness (means no backlight in hard buttons) and some ignoring of screen orientation, but I can live with that. I suppose it wouldn't be nearly as tolerant of being on a D2G without the sensor zip, with the sleep/wake issues. But yeah, not bad for patching. Not bad at all.

Very nice. Thank you for sharing. I'm sure this will help out a lot of D2G owners.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
But they say only D2 and DX. Did you flash D2 ROM on your D2G? Also, how does Liberty perform as compared to FIssion?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] randytheshiv:
liberty is flippin awesome! they have an updated version of their tool so the keyboard lights work. the proximity sensor doesn't though. so when you're talking on the phone, the screen doesn't shut off. other than that, its great.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] gifferjesus:
Yeah see, now with v7, I put Liberty back and use it, because I can see what I'm doing at night. If they'd either find a sensor fix, or Liberty releases 2.0 for D2G (Hint: 3 digit donation if they do) we're golden.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] JonandRoid:
The toolbox won't work on my phone, I read somewhere I could edit the build prop do it would work??
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Asphyx:
Ya gotta love this site....really!

Only here can you flash away from a perfectly good phone OS where everything works and get away with saying this thing works great except for the things that don't work! LOL

Not chastizing anyone here just pointing out how weird we XDA users really are!

Yes change the Build.prop to identify the ROM as Liberty and the Tools should work.

I believe detailed instructions are available on the getRDone site.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rogerdugans:
Well, alpha, beta and software that is under active development usually has some issues, and given that we gain a tremendous number of benefits from these releases... I think we'd all agree that the problems are well worth it.

Otherwise we probably wouldn't be here. ;)

Which brings me to the question I have:

I have been running Fission for quite some time on both my D2G and another one (owned by a non-tech user who requires easy usability.)

Fission is next to perfect on a reliability scale and from the reports I have seen the Global aspect functions properly with the included fix.

This is perfect for the other D2G I take care of but for mine.... yeah, I don't mind being a bit more on the "bleeding edge" but I DO require the global sim aspect of the phone. Without that I could have just kept my Droid (original) and saved some money.

So that is my question: Does D2G ROMer have any roms that allow global sim use, or do I need to stick with Fission?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] apollyon0810:
Stick with Fission. None of the other roms you can use with GRD's romer have provisions for a SIM card. Or you could install liberty and then try to install the hotfix from fission from manager.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Asphyx:
Well Roger I am not questioning those who like to flash and try new things.

And those with multiple phones or developer units I can understand fully playing around.

And while you might be ok with loosing a particular feature the bottomline is it is still lost.

The sensors are really not all that important but as was stated you BOUGHT a GLOBAL phone that by flashing lets say Liberty you have turned into a D2 (no Global) for all intents and purposes. Why not just go buy a D2 (cheaper) and retain ALL features!

It may very well depend on the feature lost but if the feature lost is a major reason to buy the phone in the first place it is rather foolish to flash for a slightly better interface and trade that feature in for something the phone was meant to do like make phone calls! LOL

I know there are plenty of people who don't use every feature of a phone.

But to get a configuration checkbox that you didn't have before in exchange for being able to use your phone overseas you have to admit is a pretty crazy tradeoff.

Some people use their phone as a toy and think it is fun to constantly reupload an operating system every week.

Same people say it works fine so some newbie reads that and then can't understand why something that he could do before is no longer possible after flashing a ROM that someone said wrks perfectly fine but now has only half the capability it did before the flash.

This has been going on for ages here along with those who immediatly think that the LATEST release is going to be better than the LAST.

My experience with WM Roms over the years has truly proved otherwise.

WM 6.5.X came out and everyone flocked to it. Didn't seem to matter to them that the phone would reboot randomly or that you would have to reset the phone and reflash once a month to use the damn thing.

I see no problem with people who flash to try something to see what it contains.

But there is this other Heroin type group that needs to flash a rom a week or they are unhappy.

They don't care if it works, don't care if it does LESS just as long as they have something to flash while they are enjoying their weekend.

Those people I find are the same ones who complain about a lack of updates and a lack of changes to ROMs that doesn't slap them in the face.

They don't care how much is broken in a release just as long as they get to flash it and then flash something else the following week.

Meanwhile they have what is pretty much an unusable and unstable phone!

But to each their own. They own it they have the right to make it less useful if they choose! LOL
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rogerdugans:
You may be surprised by this, Asphyx, but I am in complete agreement with you.

Which is why my phone still has Fission on it.

While it is true that it should be possible to flash Liberty or another rom onto a D2G and IF the owner needs to go overseas, flash back to Fission or even stock...

Yeah, personally I prefer to have EVERYTHING on my phone work properly.

I do some testing for ROM makers, as part of my "payment for services rendered" so occasionally will try something that isn't ready for prime time, but to me a properly working phone does mean that the hardware all works as it should. And I personally do find sensors of some importance.

But the comment you quoted does not mean I think it ok to have buggy roms that are error filled listed as Stable roms. I DO mean, and I re-iterate here, that anyone flashing alpha or beta roms should expect to have some errors, in fact and if they can't accept that then they shouldn't flash them.

The simple fact is that these roms ALL start off pretty unstable and the best of them move to a point where they are basically as stable as the oem rom.

Without the alpha and beta stages we would never get TO the stable point.

And without people that try 'em, they might never get there.

All of that said, I dislike the folks that ***** about rom updates not coming often enough too.

They come when they come.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Asphyx:
But you noted the key difference.

It is quite logical to flash a rom an HOUR even, if you are testing and working on a development.

In that situation your flashing for a distinct reason.

But there are those who aren't testing a beta, or checking a release for a developer.

They just want something to flash this week to have something to do.

They complain there is nothing new released just as they probably ***** when they have seen every movie out and there is no new movie to go see that weekend.

Flashing to test or to explore is a perfectly acceptable practice.

But flashing just to flash is borderline mental! LOL
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mrpanic7:
Just wanted to let everyone know that Rom Manager now has clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 for CM7 to be flashed thru rom manager now along with the older versions for android 2.2. So no more flashing via fastboot or terminal, all our flashing and rom jumping can be done much easier all thru Rom Manager. Thanks ClockWork!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kingvaj23:
If I flashed 3 awhile back do I still press update now? Or do i select delete recovery then update?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mrpanic7:

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Amac1222:
3.0.0.5 allows you to flash gingerbread based ROMs, basically CM7. According to @cmsrc on twitter today however, there may not be a need to switch through 2.5.1.2 and 3.0.0.5 soon. No time frame on that though yet I don't believe.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Amac1222:
I would also like to know this. Is there a way to flash the stock recovery from it using 2.5.1.3 or is there another way we need to do this through fastboot or flash it through recovery?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] neidlinger:
This is big in two ways

first of all

Previously we were not able to create a Nandroid backup. A nandroid backup is a snap shot of our OS in it's current state. So if we flash something new, a font, a boot image, what have you we are putting 100% of our faith in that flash that it will not screw anything else up. Because if it does we have to start at ground 0 again.

second of all

the developer of CWRM said that he would make the 3.x flash-able via the ROM manager when the CM7 build approached an RC status. So that isn't to far off.

Just the recovery will not effect how your phone boots.

You must use recovery 2.5.1.2 to flash all Froyo roms except for eViLs MIUI rom. 3.0.0.5 is for CM7/Gingerbread ext4 Roms.

Yikes. You haven't been paying attention, have you? We've moved on to Gingerbread now. Froyo is Froyold. That's your problem right there.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Well, not everyone wants to use Gingerbread... Some of us still like the Sense/Expresso UI. We can still squeeze / tweak the good old "Froyold" ROMs to have similar performance as Gingerbread while maintaining Sense/Expresso UI.

If you are tired of the Gingerbread experience, come back to Froyold, you might be surprised how much things are still happening ...

Does anyone know if there is a way to boost the Dell Venue Pro's headphone volume through some hack/EM/diagnostic?

On the Samsung Focus this is apparently possible, but the same procedure doesn't seem to work with the DVP:

http://www.wpcentral.com/boost-sound-samsung-focus-take-2

The low headphone volume really bugs me :(

If anyone has an idea how to boost it, please speak up :)
[Venue Pro General] jessej:
The one thing that I can contribute is that there can be a dramatic difference between the sound level of different headphones. I use a pair of Klipsh earbuds and cannot turn the volume up past 15 without it being uncomfortable. My wife uses a pair of Sony noise canceling on ear headphones and I can turn it up to around 25 without it being uncomfortable. I would suggest trying another set of headphones and if they are still very low volume you may want to consider an exchange as the Zune integration is a killer feature.

I need an answer to this too. The audio to the headphones is really low on the DVP.

I would also like to know this as well. My Sennheiser HD 238 is super low on the DVP but when I tried it on my laptop and an iphone it was very louder. My bluetooth headphones work good/loud but plug in ones are not.

I just wanted to resurrect this thread to see if anyone made any headway with boosting the volume on the DVP. In my car I have to turn the volume up to 20, whereas on my LG G2x (android) I had to turn the volume no more than 11.

Serious lack of volume here. This is strange because the in-call volume seems a lot louder.
