[HTC 7 Pro] finghard:
Hi long time no post

For the last few years I have been waiting patiently for a predecessor to the xda exec , none arrived so I decided to go for the new 7 pro as it seemed to be the closest I will ever get .

It arrived and I was absolutely chuffed HTC have outdone thierself. I have had it for less than a week and I am well miffed with it already . HTC and Microsoft haven't seemed to of talked with each other over this phone . My guess is this is exactly the same rom as the hd7 only a small amount of apps rotate when the keyboard is slid out basically text and web . Kind of pointless keyboard really .

I came to terms with this and decided not a problem then my next snag was I went out of signal and would not reaquire on its own . I turned on and off airplane mode ,it didn't make a difference. I removed the battery and replaced and got 3 bars straight away , I haven't had this problem since a Nokia 8210 !

The final straw was Monday I changed to nightshift so I set my alarm to wake me up guess what it didn't and i was late. to make it worse it completely muted my phone aswell. The cure was yet again removal and refit of battery. I thought maybe it was me so I tried again with back up this time my HTC diamond 6.5.1rev and It did the same again no sound only vibrate and muted phone again. out came the battery again.

I have decided to go iPhone which does miff me off as i have waited for Microsoft all this time when i should of switched right at the beginning .

My outcome of the whole ordeal is the phone itself is awesome.beats the iPhone hands down ,i am actually in love with it it is that good (except speaker in underside?) but Iam fed up with being a windows guinea pig
[HTC 7 Pro] finghard:
Also I am very disappointed with marketplace , I find it hard to beleive that there is zero Sat nav software available . I have always stuck to windows purely for that reason . The I phone has for me in the UK a free Prog called navfree and it ain't far desimilar to TomTom. What does market place have to offer no half decent freebies at all
[HTC 7 Pro] finghard:
I feel that the UK will be an iPhone only country except for some foolhardy old timers like myself who are deluding themselves. Microsoft need to put out some damn good software on market place for free. I don't think they have risen to the iPhone challenge at all
[HTC 7 Pro] rhory:
You can't be coming here criticising MS, the uber microites will be after you for blasphemy.....:)
[HTC 7 Pro] The Gate Keeper:
we've gotten to a point of not really caring i think... this person has their point of view, that's fine. though it would of been better for him/her to do their homework before buying the device, but aye, i'm sure there is also cooling off period.

at the end of the day, if they're not happy with it, that's fine, swap it up for something you'll like and hopefully when that contract is up, Windows Phone will be at a point where it does meet your needs and you return. If not, all good, enjoy whatever phone you pick up.

Enough said?
[HTC 7 Pro] efjay:
Yep, no need to say anymore really, he tried it, didnt like it and moved on. Happens all the time and as mentioned, maybe one day WP7 will meet his needs, if not enjoy whatever does meet your needs.
[HTC 7 Pro] z33dev33l:
In WP7s defence you really did get the worst WP7 device out there...
[HTC 7 Pro] kappo78:
In consideration of a qwerty keyboard, whats better?
[HTC 7 Pro] Naz2kool:
I'd like to point out to the OP that the iPhone Appstore has been in existance for over 3 years... the WP7 marketplace has been available for only 4+ months...

You gotta give the developers some time to develop these good apps.

Be patient... As they say, Rome wasn't built in a day!
[HTC 7 Pro] FiyaFleye:
I think that the Nokia alliance will greatly help with Navigation and Marketplace issues overseas as Nokia already has a great variety of licenses and products over there that Microsoft will not utilize.

Your presence and constant sarcastic attitude are honestly making this forum so much less enjoyable for me, and I'm sure others as well... Jesus Christ, we get it, you don't like the phone, or the OS... You don't need to get into EVERY TOPIC and say it... or mock those who do like it...
[HTC 7 Pro] z33dev33l:
My DVP is amazing, be sure to get the 8 gig though and upgrade it up to 32 gigs as you see fit. The 16 gig is known to have issues though it seems to be SD card related. The quantum is good though the screens a bit small for my taste (I like 3.8+ inch screens) LG does have the best apps though.
[HTC 7 Pro] dazza9075:
Whats on the market place has little to do with Microsoft, please direct all moans to the likes of tomtom and garmin etc for not pulling their fingers out, they have had plenty of time and MS is usually very good for offering assistance on such matters.

Pitty you didnt have much luck with that, the OS is great, new hardware will be on the way in due course so hopefully things will get sorted soon, i dont suppose you tried another one did you? not beyond the realm of posibility that your device was in some way buggered.
[HTC 7 Pro] rhory:
If I mocked you, you would know it, believe it. But that would probably go over your head, it usually does with blowhards.....:D

[G2 and Desire Z General] chi11ax:
Hi there, I am using a Bell Desire Z on Fido.

The 3G disconnects when GPS activates ... and other times too.

Most often when I use google Maps. But after restarting mobile network, it would keep working for a time.

I though that there might be a bug where the 3G needed to be restarted everytime it encountered a new cell tower but now I am not so sure.

Any ideas what might be causing this problem?
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Hmm... I have a G2 and never experience that problem. Well if your not rooted u should factory reset and see if that works... If you are prem-rooted and s-off u should flash a different rom that might work lol... sorry if am not to helpful
[G2 and Desire Z General] chi11ax:
Hi yeah I am not rooted and it has been happening since I got my phone. :(

Could it be the APN settings? But it is not like I can't connect but more like I get kicked off.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Hmm... have you tried factory reseting the phone. Most of the times that fixes the issues on the phone. If that does not work try calling your customer care and tell them what's going on. They will reset your signal and if the issue persist you should get your phone replaced.
[G2 and Desire Z General] chi11ax:
Somehow I deleted all APN settings but the APN name mcc and mnc and now it is stable.

Weird because I had just copied the APN settings from my milestone which worked fine.

I had tried that before but it was still unstable but I think I had left the user name and password in.

Thanks for the replies though.

Hey guys i now have an android phone with skyfire 3.2 and its ok and yes it plays vids but i used to have skyfire for my wm phone and it was great. it played vids and flash content right IN THE BROWSER, not jus on vid at a time in the TOOLBAR. The old skyfire was great. Is there anyone willing to port it over? or has it been done already. im sure im not the only one that wants to watch vids right in the browser like an actual desktop.

u can check out the old version for wm here

skyfire.en.softonic.com/pocketpc

if this could be ported it would be great :) :) :)
[Android Apps and Games] sageDieu:
There's probably good reasons that the skyfire devs didn't port it straight over. Possibly memory or compatibility or maybe sdk restrictions.
[Android Apps and Games] kasloent:
but dont u think it would be a good idea tho?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoopuf:
Hello

I have a Telus HTC Desire and I need to reset it to factory settings. Is there any way to do this?

I have tried to unroot it by downloading the latest RUU for the dev thread, but none of the "World Wide English" ones seem to work. I keep getting the same error that tells me I chose the wrong ROM.

The dev thread is this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667

Any help at all would be appreciated.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flindil:
I found the stock Telus RUU on this site somewhere, I still have it and could try post it on a site to download if you cant find it by searching. It is the complete package they released when they upgraded to froyo from eclair and will overwrite any recovery, whichever radio you are using and return the phone to "off the shelf" telus software.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoopuf:
Been looking everywhere, not a trace. Mind you, I am not that familiar with the site. If you could please post the download link that would be awesome.

Many thanks for the quick response.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flindil:
No problem, it was a fluke when I found it as well, it's too bad Telus does all their updates OTA now. Sending you a PM
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OpusX11:

I think the TELUS rom and the 2.2 update were both there in the Bravo section

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzzy_Dunlop:
I tried searching and was unable to find an answer. The CM7 RC0 thread in development states that USB mounting and tethering works with the stock kernel. When I attempt to enable tethering, I am unable to install the necessary driver due to the hardware ID being different from CM6.1. Is their an alternate NDIS driver (XP/Win7) for CM7?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
Did you uninstall the current drivers first?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Derrtydozen:
I'm having the same problem.... windows 7 cant find the driver software...shows as RNDIS
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzzy_Dunlop:
No I hadn't tried that. When I get home I'll attempt to uninstall the current driver and see if that does anything.

edit: Tried uninstalling then reinstalling current driver. Nothing changed. The ADB driver installs fine, but when I try to enable USB tethering the install fails. The hardware ID for the NDIS device for CM7 is different than 6.1.

I did nandroid my baked snack but I was wondering if there is another sense rom using the latest OTA updates that would be similar to baked snack but maybe a bit faster and more fluid?? My phone seems slow at times and in quadrant it is under 1000 most of the time.

Got a bit of a problem folks,, hope to get some help...

i have been running TNT lite since i got the tab and was up to 4.1 and started getting the acore force closes. so i followed some threads and installed clockwork and did the partition reformate and wipe data,,,,

now when i reboot, it gets the birds splash, and moves to the G-tablet boot image (i have the dancing droid one) and it hangs,,,,,,, nothing....

any ideal how i "fix this"...

thanks for any help because as you can see i am at a stop!

[G Tablet General] ptgptg:
I had some issues with my first tab similar to what you are having. The only way I solved it was by reflashing and wiping all date, which takes you back to the EULA. Good luck.
[G Tablet General] jasco13:
Do you have functional recovery? I'm guessing yes since you partitioned. Go to recovery and flash the rom again. You can mount the usb drivers in cwm to start usb mass storage so that you can download the rom on your computer and transfer to tablet. You can also put rom on external sd card and install from cwm.

When you partitioned the storage you deleted everything including the os. I believe it warned you of that before you did it.

If no recovery then you will have to nvflash. Search nvflash and bekit to get the nvflash info.

Make sure you are using bekits .8 CWM release. The latest release of CWM gave me fits, the only thing that would install was CM 7.
[G Tablet General] TheJesus:
This isn't an Android Development topic, its a General topic, but don't worry about it, a mod will move it.

As to the question, like the others said. Use CWM .08, Wipe System, Wipe Cache, Install zip from SD Card, Install your choice of ROM (in your case, TnT Lite 4.1), Install gApps.zip, Reboot system now. That should get you up and running.

I am confused about you saying that you just now installed CWM but have been running TnT Lite. How would you have done that or do you mean you tried to update CWM or do you mean you have been using the stock TnT?

I "think" i tried this last night. I have 4.1.4 Update.zip and recovery folder on an USB stick. In CW, i went to "mount USB" (thinking i could access my USB and install from there) but ???? i didnt see anything and the only options were install update.zip from SD, and from Location but no USB option, and of course no way (that i saw) to brows to another location to "pick" where i wanted to install from.

Im thinking i am missing something with this step, or just plain old doing it wrong..
[G Tablet General] jakehale:
I have been installing the Roms, by downloading, taking the two "files" and moving them to my tab, and then rebooting with the power volume up,, ,finds the update and installs the ROM. its worked for all of them since 2.2...i thought i read that was an acceptable means of installing the ROM.????

as far as getting the files onto my SD (now). How? my computer doesnt see the tab because it is just hanging on dancing andy(unless there is anothe way of making it "see it", i cant seem to figure out how to get CW to read from my USB drive.....

Im just plain "stuck".

I am by no means a Android guru, and up to this point havnt had problems in the past... I TRULY am thankful for ANY help and all help i have recieved...

thanks folks

[G Tablet General] gator2k83:
power off the tablet.

hold vol+ then power till u see recovery key pressed in the upper left corner of the screen. it will appear while the birds are still on the screen. If you get to the g tablet screen power off and repeat till u get into cw recovery.

Using volume +/- to navigate up and down Home to select and back to go back one level

Navigate cw recovery till u see mount usb storage i think its under partitions.

when you see usb mounted hook up the usb cable to the computer to the tablet mini usb port. copy the rom of your choice to the tablet. u only need the update.zip

once copied unmount usb storage.

back out till u see apply update.zip

Install and reboot u will be good to go.

of course flash gapps if u know what that is and want market on the tab.

Enjoy.
[G Tablet General] BigJohn89:
CW Won't read your USB drive. The "Mount USB" option in CW is to mount your tablet onto your computer as a USB storage device. By doing so, you can push files over to the tablet's internal storage from your computer.

BigJohn
[G Tablet General] jasco13:
Agree. That is what I was talking about earlier, I just couldn't remember what it was labelled in CWM. Mount the USB to your PC and push over the file. Then in CWM choose install from sdcard (I think, too lazy to look). Navigate to the rom file and run it. All should be well after that.

[HD2 General] JMnaCon:
Hi everyone. I had NAND installed on my HD2 now for about a month and a half. One of the things that I haven't seen on my phone is better battery life. This is the first phone I have with a data plan so I'm really not sure how much of the battery drains with data. Here is my daily routine. I charge my phone overnight, by 11am-12pm my phone is just about dead. I put it on the charger until about 4pm; usually it's fully charged by then. By the time 10pm comes around it's almost dead again. Doesn't seem like good battery life to me. Someone please let me know if I'm missing something.

Thank you all!
