Thanks for the suggestions but I've actually tried both of these files already and they don't work. Just to be safe, I did try them again thinking maybe I got a bad download but that's not it. In fact, when I try to flash the PRI the screen flashes very quickly and goes back to the flash screen like I didn't do anything. I never get a message to reboot or anything like that.

Maybe it would help if someone gave me a step by step so I could see if I'm doing something wrong?

download pri 1.77

flash pri 1.77

it will then tell you to reboot your phone. hit power button twice to do so

it will flash 1.77 and then take you back to recovery and your set!

this is assuming u have amon-ra

Does your screen have tearing experience?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizorith:
clockwork and it's the latest, 3.0.0.5

I've also tried doing it from hboot but it never detects anything to flash as I've read it does for others.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizorith:
I'm not sure what you mean. The only strange thing that happens is when I tell it to reboot after trying to flash (and keep in mind, it NEVER asks to reboot, I just do it manually) I always get a black screen and a bunch of pixels, like when you look at a tv very close, for about 5 seconds, and then it boots into the rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
When you scroll side to side can you see it lagging towards the top, ruins youtube video watching and anything with fast pixels.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizorith:
Oh no, nothing like that. The phone works well, I don't really have any major problems - at least other than a few bugs that everyone has.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizorith:
OK problem solved, although I'm not exactly sure what happened. You guys did drive me in the right direction though. I reinstalled clockwork and it still didn't take. Then I tried RA, which I've never used and it worked fine.

I guess I'll stick with it for now. Thanks everyone.

Has anybody else had issues with the micro USB port? Mine seems very worn. When plugged in the cable seems very loose. Any tap and the cable disconnects. Has anybody had a similar experience?
[Nexus One General] UCFJake:
Yeah, mine looked to be bent somehow and I took a small jewelry screwdriver to bend the upper metal enclosure back down almost a month ago. It has worked great ever since. The upper (screen side) part of the port was hooked on the metal casing and couldn't release to hold in any micro USB cords. Again, a small jewelry screwdriver worked for me. Hope this helps!
[Nexus One General] snlu178:
Mine has had this issue for weeks now. I can't get it to work most of the time. I have to wiggle the cable to get it to charge aNd it stops if I move the phone. Nothing fixes it. I think they are just not up for the test of time. My phone now stops charging in the middle of the night if the cable moves and I wake up to 50% charge.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
How many cables do you use with it? It might be that the 2 little barbs on the micro USB plug are worn, rather than the port.
[Nexus One General] MaximReapage:
Solution! http://the-gadgeteer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/nexus-one-9.jpg
[Nexus One General] snlu178:
Stock charger at home. Car charger and work charger. All three same issue.

And yeah the dock is a good solution to try.
[Nexus One General] 3bs:
All cables are the same. Car charger, USB, wall charger, etc.

Thanks for the input but a dock isn't always convenient. I need to be able to charge the phone reliably in the car, at work, and at home.

I'll try bending the enclosure like the first responder recommended.
[Nexus One General] phoang1988:
I had this problem but I was under warranty
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
This seems to be an (eventual) problem with just about any device with a small USB-type connector, though the micro-USB connections seem to hold up a bit better than the older mini-USB connections. I've seen similar issues with harddrives, optical drives, MP3 players, and other phones. You can sometimes "fix" the connection by bending bits back into place, but the best thing you can do is just to be extra careful with these delicate interfaces to help prevent the problem in the first place.
[Nexus One General] willverduzco:
That's what I was thinking as well. Two of my cables are worn, but my port is fine. Unfortunate to hear that it wasn't the case for 3bs.
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
I had similar issues until it stopped working all together. It was under warranty though so sent it back to Vodafone, who then sent it to HTC. I am told it will be back tomorrow.

It was bootloader unlocked and rooted too.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
My stock cable is loose but replacement cables are nice and snug
[Nexus One General] McFroger3:
Second Solution?

lol:p
[Nexus One General] Kloppy:
I had the same issue with my Desire. One simple solution is to squeeze the connector, so that the little "hole" gets tighter. This worked perfectly for me.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:

I just saw a seidio 3500mah for $43 plus 5.99 shipping about $50 but the sprint extended battery is $49.99 also just want to know ,your opinion which one is my best choice ,who has a sprint extended battery and who has a seidio please help.
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
Is the Sprint battery 3500mAh? I thought it was less.

I have the seidio battery and have used it the most of the other batteries I have. Its good and last longer than stock as expected. I don't think you will see any real-world difference between 3200 and 3500mAh.

Really you need to decide which back panel you like better. At first first I hated seidio's, but it grew on me and that boxy back plate actually helps me to hold the phone better. Its weird, but how often do you look at the back of the phone??

Funny enough, I'm back to trying out the stock battery....

Edit: Sprint also includes a white back panel with their battery, if that make any difference.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Neither. Those extended batteries are a rip off and they make your phone bulky as hell. Completely defeats the sleek aesthetic of the EVO. Do yourself a favor, buy these batteries. They last a little longer than stock, you get two of them and a dock charger for $17 with free shipping. Just keep a charged spare with you and swap it out when you need to. So much nicer than having to lug a bulky evo around.
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
Personally, I'd rather not worry about carrying another battery around when I need extra life. A naked phone with the seidio battery is just as thick a regular phone with a medium sized case, probably less bulky. And I don't use cases.

I go through phases. Right now I'm in max power-save mode with stock batteries; waiting for those Chinese batteries to come in. When I fell like OC'ing for performance, I'll switch to the extended and not worry. Totally worth the costs for me. To each their own.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Biker1:
Carrying a spare stock battery is my suggestion.

Why create bulk on such a sleek device;)

The Evo stock battery is so flat, you can slip it in anywhere.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Amco:
You do realize some people care more about function rather then looks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Biker1:
You can have both with a spare ;)

Personally, I don't give up function by carrying a spare. In addition, with the standard battery, the phone slips right into my pocket without any discomfort.

I don't know if the the OP keeps his Evo in his pocket, but this also may be something to consider.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jocampo86:
I have two of the Chinese battery they probably give me a few min more than stock,I have tried kernels to make my battery last,but is just not working ,I see guys w extended battery say they get 20+hrs I cam barely make 6w moderate use on stock and Chinese like 6 1/2hrs.....
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
I don't have a problem with storing the EVO with monster battery in my pocket. For anyone that carries a spare: do you throw battery management out the window? Because I can keep all of the radios on, OC to 1.19GHz, screen brightness way up, live wallpaper, hotspot, etc, and not be concerned about the battery. It is totally worth the thicker form-factor for me and the OP.

OP, either battery should be about the same. The seidio is the only one that has a case that fits. If that doesn't matter, pick the one with the back plate you like the most.

From my EVO when I should probably be doing something else instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mecampo:
sprint is 2600mah ... for me it run for 20 hrs with 30% still left, have 2 emails sync every hour and exchange as items arrive, handcent sms, facebook once in a while, phandroid and some other stuff.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Subiegsr:
Not sure about Sprint's battery, but I personally have the Seidio 3500mAh and I love it! I had a Seidio 3200mAh on my previous Sprint Mogul phone and that **** lasted 4 days of moderate usage while roaming in a different state!:eek:

With the Seidio 3500mAh, I use it about 14hrs a day constantly with heavy usage (20% text, 40% internet, 20% talk, 20% games) and usually end up with 40-60% battery life left at the end of the night consistantly (using Myn's RSL5 rom and Netarchy 4.2.3 SBC kernel).

It also helps to use a SBC kernel, at least in my case. Noticed a big difference, but YMMV.

Hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Accessories] todah09:
yeah i have the sprint batt. i have all radios on, and i get about 28hrs.with about 35%.i would say go with the sprint batt..just cause its a instore purchase....
[EVO 4G Accessories] Bigjim1488:
+1 to this. Currently I am playing with the 2000mah batteries for the hell of it but nothing beats the extended if you really just want to rock out hard on your evo!

[EVO 4G Accessories] jrb7561:
I've been using the 3500mh Seidio battery for several months now and I would never go back to the stock battery. It's just so nice to use the phone heavily all day and not have to worry about having enough juice to last a full day. Now that I'm using Roms and setcpu and other programs which improve battery life, this thing lasts forever.

As a side note, I was in the Sprint store just last week comparing the size of the Sprint 2600mh battery to the 3500mh Seidio and they're literally almost identical in size. The seidio is just a tiny smidge thicker. In fact I tried to fit the Sprint backplate over the seidio battery and it almost fit perfectly.

Point is, if you're going to get either one, and they're basically the same size, why not get the one with 35% more capacity? No brainer to me.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jocampo86:
Ok ,just pulled the trigger bought the 3500mah for $53 at amazon w 2-6 day ship total was $53 should receive by sat ...u guys think this was a good deal?
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
That's about how much I paid. Enjoy the new battery.

From my EVO when I should probably be doing something else instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jocampo86:
Dude in Ur Sig.u have all these batterys which is the best for u ?
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
3500 seidio. I thought the rounded cover of the mugen would be good, but I didn't like it; I felt I was going to drop the phone every time I held it.

But right now I'm trying out the stock size again to see if it works for my daily usage. And I felt like using a case for a while.

From my EVO when I should probably be doing something else instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] phillysdon04:
I just got my 3500 Seidio battery from Ebay & am having trouble draining the battery. I love having this issue, lol. I went 24hrs without a charge & with heavy usage. Now I have about 9% battery left. The stock battery would have died in 5hrs.

Sent from my Evo
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
because the seidio is not even close to 3500 and the sprint battery is a lipo, I would go with the sprint for sure. both are way overpriced though.
[EVO 4G Accessories] taguluchi:
I would go for the seidio3500 that's what I bought and a Guy at my work bought the sprint 2600 and I way better battery life you can get the seidio on Amazon for around the same price as sprint's battery

I bought my evo last week and it came with the Seidio. I have yet to have it last me under 24 hours. I took it off the charger tho morning at 9am, its now 10:15 and have been using it heavily(gps, 4g, ect) and still have 62% left. I have no problem keeping the phone in my pocket.

I just bought the platinum extended battery (seidios best buy brand) for 25 shipped on eBay for a new one. I'm hoping its as good as everyone says but will report back. I had the Chinese one off eBay that was 3000mah and it is better them stock but not as great as people are saying the seidio one is.

Hello.

I have a 1006 Captivate, and can't make the gps to work anymore.

I remember I had usable GPS with Axura and JI6, but now I can't get a lock anymore, not even with JI6 (tested it with espyel's rom and Geomod).

So I want to know if anyone with a 1006 Captivate managed to make his gps work fine. I'd like to know the rom and the configuration used.

Thanks in advance.

[Dell Streak 7] surrept:
So I just bought a streak 7.

I have AT&T and bought the thing outright without a tmobile contract.

The question I have is since it's locked, can I stick a inactive tmobile sim card in it to get it unlocked to where I can use the wifi or does the sim card need to be activated.

If it does is there any other work around at this time.

I realize I should have asked this before I bought it but I wanted to have it in time for a trip if it did work, and figured if it doesn't I'll just return it and wait till someones unlocked it.
[Dell Streak 7] Hellzya:
no need for the sim card. I bought mine out right and am currently running it without a sim and using wifi. Have fun with it. Just be warned the battery is sub-par. If you can look past that its actually a great device.

Is there anything else i need to do to prevent the phone from locking again? also ive read about this clockworkmod recovery and rom manager.... is that needed to keep my unlock or anything? thanks again guys.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
You do not need to do anything anymore, your phone will remain unlocked until you lock it again using Radio S-OFF tool.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklikesnike:
Also i have set my "CID" to stock HTC__001, but im not sure what this is meant to do as it seems to have made no difference?

... and your saying that for my phone to become locked again, i would have to change it to s-off, then click "sim unlock" again?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
The radio S-OFF tool does not change your software CID, it changes the bootloader CID. So there it makes huge difference. You can try it, you no longer need a goldcard :)

For your phone to become locked, yes, you have to select S-ON and put your branded CID to your phone (if your phone is branded, that is). The SimUnlock cannot be undone, and it does not matter, because anybody can unlock their phones when they just pay for the code. The difference is that radio tool is free.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklikesnike:
thanks for the reply mate..

i just have one question "For your phone to become locked, yes, you have to select S-ON and put your branded CID to your phone"... i have put S-On back, as i was worried i would make changes by accident to the nand so i put it back to s-On just incase, and my phone isnt locked its still unlocked?

... also im not following you with the CID idea, the phone was/is branded to Orange UK, so i set the CID to stock HTC__001, but this has made no differerence and still seems to be branded...?

and when you say it changes the boot loader CID, do you mean the white recovery screen etc? and when you said it makes a huge difference, what do you mean by that?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
You say that your phone is still unlocked after S-ON, what do you mean by that? You cannot install a custom rom, so it is not unlocked. Root is possible with S-ON, but try modifying something in /system/..

And what do you mean about phone still being branded after HTC__001? The CID is just a permission to install different ROMs from different sources, for example HTC__001 allows you to flash any WWE ROM. You probably had ORANG001, with that it was not possible to flash HTC WWE ROM.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklikesnike:
by unlocked i mean, can accept any simcard from any network, for example i am using an o2 simcard in it. it is S-ON, im just wanting to make sure i dont lose my unlock.
