[HD2 General] Lizzo:
Your board needs to be replaced. I once owned an hd2 that carried the same problem ur having.

Sent from my HD2 using a smoke signal
[HD2 General] hayyaan:
Damn. Better get it fixed.

Any idea how much it'll cost? Is it easy to change or will I have to give it for repairs? (no official HTC service store :( )
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You can buy the board and do it yourself if hou want to. You just need a small hex head screw driver and to be very carful taking your phone apart. I can not remember tbe exact location of it but there are links to some leaked official HTC training videos on desassembling and reassembling the HD2 here on XDA, but the videos are on pocketnow.com. The board recuires no soldering abilities as it has the camera and screen have ribbons that just plug in.
[HD2 General] pteradactyle:
yea im gonna send it in, turns out the main board is overheating and that mean its pretty much dead...if the back gets really hot and it freezes on you, chances are your hd2's not far from death
[HD2 General] sayoonarachue:
RE: disassembly video ;)

here you go. in case you feel brave enough to do it. it's pretty easy. i just bought a new htc HD2 for $105 after i drop my samsung captivate...i bought it knowing the screen was faulty and use this video to help take it apart. afterwards the screen is more responsive now :)

[HD2 General] SpottierPython:
I have the same problem and that is too irritating... Pins are straight and shiny :)
[HD2 General] pvii:
The only way to fix it is to uniformly bake the board at 210-220*C/430*F (but no more that 230*C/450*F or the PCB will start incinerate) for 20 minutes, (thermostat controlled oven (for toasts) or better infrared heater, NOT MICROWAVE!!!), this will reflow broken connections and solve most cases of freezing. Keep your eyes on temperature, open oven after 20 minutes and let it cool down, don't move anything until in cools to room temperature. Start heating from room temperature and slowly bring it to peak temperature during first 15 minutes and keep for last 5 minutes peak temperature (about 210-220*C).

[G1 General] themadyc:
I have a problem with my G1. I've rooted it (with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480 ), and afterwards I had to update SPL (downloaded dangerous SPL from http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/downloads/detail?name=spl-signed.zip&can=2&q= ). I've forgotten to update RADIO first, and I am stuck with boot screen.

I cannot use adb, camera+power, recovery (home+power), home+back+power doesn't work either. On boot screen I try to reboot it via send+menu+power, but it doesn't work - the only method is to take out the battery.

Is there any option that I can try to fix it?

I have 1 year more warranty for this phone, so I don't want to lose it.

//I have second G1 working, if that can somehow help in fixing it.

I know it's my fault. But is there anyway I can repair it?

Roebeet at slatedroid has a step by step for using the Xoom usb port for host mode: http://www.slatedroid.com/index.php...le-usb-host-mode-ie-thumb-drives-on-the-xoom/
[Xoom General] colbyb25:
and it is on days like today that I love my Xoom that much more. By the time the devs are done designing things for this tablet, it is going to be a whole new experience. I feel sorry for people that returned theirs after not even giving it real time to grow.
[Xoom General] Elementix:
so this enables host mode, but can you switch back and forth between host and client?
[Xoom General] joeski27:
I guess his new boot.img that enables the USB host will be a moot point with regard to the new update coming from Moto tonight. This sucks.
[Xoom General] roebeet:
an update is coming?
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
Regardless of the update, we will still be able to run this great mod. There has been little work done on the kernel as seen on aosp. so all the kernels floating around will still work just fine. In fact, the only kernel work committed from upstream has primarily been bcm4329 work for the wifi only models.
[Xoom General] mattkeane88:
Will this allow me to plug in my external hard drive?
[Xoom General] xlGmanlx:
After I update I am going to run this bad boy
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
Yes, if your drive is AC powered. And u get the cable. I will release this in my next kernel release with due credits given in my OP. :D
[Xoom General] qw3r7yju4n:
how hard would it be

To have the OC and USB host lines in the boot/root img?

I would love to have this and OC at the same time! :eek:
[Xoom General] 10roller:
how about portable external HD's that draw power through the usb cable. theese will also be supported too, correct?
[Xoom General] roebeet:
The actual change is very minor from stock - a few extra lines in the init.rc and then the /etc/vold.fstab change.

Going on my GTAB experience, it should work. But, there might be a size restriction -- 128GB, I believe (?) and of course FAT32. Again, going on memory here from the GTAB forums.

My external HDD's are all EXT3/4 so I usually don't test them against an OTG cable.
[Xoom General] mattkeane88:
FAT32!!!! who uses that anymore?!?!
[Xoom General] strifejester:
Anyone got a good link for the right cables. The last one I bought to add storage to my jailbroke apple tv failed miserably.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Yeah I think this might be needed, since it seems that the boot.img for USB host conflicts with the boot.img for OC, rendering your tablet wifi-less. Hope we can get a workaround for this :rolleyes:
[Xoom General] roebeet:
(gets on soapbox)

Most of the vendors, unfortunately, because they can't hammer out a long-term solution they all can agree on. FAT32 is still used on flash-based devices because of this problem. And it is a problem.

MS, in its infinite wisdom, created exFAT to replace FAT32. But of course its proprietary and has to be licensed. Why couldn't they just open source it and allow it to used for free? That would be too easy, so they can't do that. NTFS is also proprietary, so getting OS's like Android and iOS requires reverse engineering. And HFS+ is, again, proprietary.

What would be best for consumers is that all the major vendors agree on an open-source standard (like EXT4?), and create drivers for their various OS's to support that standard. Then, we could migrate all new devices to that new standard and be done with this problem. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
BOY! as fast as the xoom is growing the I Pad is starting to look like a tablet you buy at the $1.00 store!. Those I Pad owners will take those I Pads back to the store and trade them for a xoom. Although my new xoom hasent been rooted yet as I am waiting for all the important updates before doing so, I see this thing replaceing my expencive laptop soon!. I sure feel sorry for those that choose to wait for the wyfy model!. I for 1 am glad I just went out and got the thing!
[Xoom General] Dr.Preston:
Do you think this will enable devs in the future to pair PS3 controllers with the Xoom via USB so that they can be used over bluetooth?

I know that in the past what's been preventing PS3 controllers from working is the inability to pair via USB.
[Xoom General] xlGmanlx:
I never take updates once I am rooted, the community provides them for you. Better root now in case moto ever tries to lock down the xoom a la 2.2 for most phones
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
Words of wisdom. Once you lose root to an ota, game over.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Anybody been able to make this hack work with a USB card reader? Because the whole point of me doing this hack was to be able to quickly pull photos off of my CF and SD cards in the field for back up and review, but unfortunately only thumb drives are recognized for me so far, which does me no good at all :(
[Xoom General] fletch33:
i am waiting for my cable to arrive to test this.

anyone that has this running can you test to see if you plug the Xoom into your computer with USB host enabled are you getting a slow charge on the Xoom? does it show it is charging or maybe just not loose any battery power?

if you plug it into a charger like from a DROID phone does it charge?

i have a hunch it may work and would love to know.

thanks
[Xoom General] jaypeezee:
Wow, this is no bueno... I am looking to do the same.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Actually I CAN get the Xoom to now read CF & SD cards in a card reader - for some reason I just had to dock and then undock the xoom, then plug the reader w/card back in again, and BAM the data on the card is available! Can't get it to connect directly to my camera in this way in order to read the card, but thats no problem, I have no problem popping the card into the reader instead ;)
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
THIS COULD BE A BREAK THROUGH! Please provide your reviews on the SD card reading when useing the xoom!. Some have wanted to use the SD card in the xoom for full backups of all systems OS included for a restore option. Do you meen you are able to insert the SD card in the SD reader slot or just hooking it up to the usb? THANKS!
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Well first off I can read memory cards only via the USB hack put together by roebeet (has nothing to do with the microSD slot built into the Xoom). Specifically employed the hack via the latest Tiamat kernel and accompanying boot.img. The Tiamat dev included roebeets hack into his latest OC kernel update,thus allowing the USB host and OC hacks to work at the same time.

As for the card reading experience, there really isn't much to say, it works just like you'd hope. You can quickly and easily see, play, and copy files back and forth. I like that when I want to view photo files from my cameras memory card incandescent view the card via card reader and see thumbnails for easy viewing (or have them open in Gallery or Quickpic without even saving them on the Xooms memory.

This is all I have done in this area, and using the Xoom for viewing and backing up images from my DSLR was my main interest with regard to USB host. Hope this helps you guys! :D
[Xoom General] roebeet:
I actually get an error that charging over USB is not supported, or similar. I'm not sure if that would be there on clean stock or not.

Keep in mind that this hack doesn't enable OTG, it enables thumb drive support and probably anything else that loads as external storage (like a self powered HDD enclosure, for example). The real "enabling" is in the OTG cable itself. USB keyboards, for example, work as-is -- no changes needed. You just need the right cable.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
That opens up new options for me. They sell neat cases on eBay that hold a USB keyboard and a 10.2" tablet. I might look into that again if I can utilize the USB keyboard. Roebeet, you're da man! (I'll post a link later)
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
Well, dont buy one of those tablet/keyboard cases for the I Pad. I took my xoom into the store and tryed one out for fit (THEY DONT FIT)
[Xoom General] roebeet:
I know those - they are usually for a ZT-180, from memory. Those devices might be larger than a Xoom, so keep that in mind. The keyboard will probably work (with the OTG cable), but the case itself probably won't.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
Oh well. Bluetooth is more functional in our household anyway (lots of devices that I could use it with!)...

But I have another question - Would it be possible to connect another media player (in my case an iPod classic) and play media content via the Xoom? When I hook it up to my PS3 I can browse the files but they have these BS Apple cryptic names so I have no idea which movie is where.
[Xoom General] roebeet:
It might work, but if it did you'd have the same file issue. You can thank Apple for that one.

Some of the older iPods have a MSC storage mode, which is basically what the thumb drives are using.
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
i just got my cable yesterday. USB hosting works perfect. Just flash latest Tiamat kernel package and experience the win. You da man Roebeet!

[General Questions and Answers] EWP000:
I have a Samsung Captivate running original Froyo but I think this issue is related to Android in general.

My phone in unlocked and I'm using it in Brazil, naturally not with AT&T.

No unofficial software is installed.

My issue is I don't have the "delivery report" option in message settings list, so I cannot set the phone to receive delivery reports when I send messages. This happens for SMS and MMS messages.

When I got this phone I kept the same simcard (line, plan, services and carrier). In my previous cell phone, it had this option which was set to enabled and used to work fine.

To re-check, I recently put my simcard in another phone and the option is there and works fine. So, the issue seems to be on the phone.

I've already tried Samsung support but it is completley useless!

I have already tried handcent, but delivery reports don't work very well.

I saw in XDA that there is a solution for Windows Mobile phones that consists in changing a value in the registry. Is there something similar for Android?

If not, is this related to the carrier or the phone/system ?

Regards,

Eduardo

Neither can I choose it with the ADW launcher nor can I see the app in the settings menu of Android. I already cleared my cache again and reflashed a third time the Google Apps.
