[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carmeng4evr:
Is there anyway to get contact with someone above the call center reps? I've spoken with 2 supervisors(obviously from the Phillipines) and it has just been

an annoying ordeal.

I am only sticking with tmo until the Xperia play or Bionic is released(or some new windows phone catches my eye).

I just need to figure out how to get in contact with someone above the call center reps
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosebud1:
They tried to screw me over too when I returned my g2 and got a mt4g. They were charging me for both still because I just did the thing where you add payments to your bill. They were still charging me for the phone I returned and the new one. For about a month of fighting with them, they just kept saying we don't see the payment then they started telling me they returned my money which wasn't true because it wasn't in my account and a credit was never made. So I called the bank and bam 3 days later I got my money. Go to the bank and tell then T-Mobile said they returned you the money and you haven't received it. They will return it for you and take care of the liars at T-Mobile. Been with them for 8 years, I don't know why they were gonna lie and try to screw me out of $138. Bullcorn.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chadastrophic:
I can almost guarantee the payment was accidentally posted to your friends acct.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carmeng4evr:
@Chad, haha that is doubtful :)

But anyway, after threatening to leave and take both lines with me to Verizon, she credited my account for the next billing cycle 54 bucks.

Small compensation but at least i got a decent rep who actually did something in my favor.

And I already called my bank and disputed the charge and i should have my 101 dollars back by tuesday the bank rep said.

This works out in my favor. I am still leaving them because i find their flexpay customer service horrible and since my next bill is not due till May 5th now, i am

able to A)save a month of paying a bill B)able to wait and see what comes out for

the other 3 carriers at CTIA :)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chadastrophic:
There's a big push to get ppl from fp to post paid. Have you asked if you're elegible for conversion?

I've seen payments post to the wrong acct before.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjlean:
Me too same exact situation here. Was grtting chastened for the g2 and the 4g. Lame.they did fix it though.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carmeng4evr:
I just dont see how a payment can be posted to the wrong account if the account has been set up on Autopay since i signed up back in November 2010

and i dont see how the same exact thing happens within a 2 week period either.

I just worry that since they screwed up the payment and i had a suspension(4 hours) that it doesn't reset the time needed to stay on FP before I transfer to Post Paid

You have to have at least 6 months of good payments to swtich to Post paid

haha and i agree, this does seem like Sprint type of customer service haha
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killbynature:
It does your probaly going to have to wait another 6 months to get post paid. Make sure you have that they are at fault so get it in writing. I myself pay full price for my phone out of contract plan. Since its cheaper in the long run anyway.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk337sk337:
If you want off flexpay go into a corporate store and get them to call. In the store they have the same list to see if your prequalified or call from someone's phone who goes to regular customer care.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carmeng4evr:
Eh, it's all good.

I have a question about my phone. Maybe someone can help me. I have the rom RoyalGinger installed on my phone. Before doing so, I updated my kernel and now I do not have the H or 4G symbol on my phone. In my areas, I have 4G coverage and it did show up before. Can someone help me to figure out why when uploading any roms, I cannot see the H symbol? Any feedback would be appreciated.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elvis_Freshly:
Simple...Each ROM has a display icon programmed into the .framework and it's the ROM dev's choice/preference of what they put there. They could put a smiley face there if they choose. Get it?

So that in turn does not mean you are not achieving 4G speeds. Just means the disply doesn't say so. Nothing to panic about.

If you want it back you can visit this thread to get it back.

Thank you for the response. It did worked following your directions. Thanks a lot!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NvMe218:
IT's weird. On my htc stock sense, I saw the H symbol all the time. Ever since I rooted I rarely see it anymore. It says 3G but my speed test say otherwise as I am getting HSPA+ speeds.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elvis_Freshly:
Its just a display front in the framework. Don't worry.

I have an Inspire 4g that I recently upgraded to Cyanogen Mod 7 RC2. When I decided that I wanted to downgrade to the original stock kernel, I used Clockwork Recovery and flashed it after wiping the cache. Now the phone won't get past the htc loading screen. Anyone have a fix for this?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Which kernel did you flash?

Was this kernel suitable to be flashed with CWM?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slidetrumpthero:
The kernel was the original stock kernel I found here on xda developers. Used it when I originally rooted my inspire 4g
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slidetrumpthero:
Never mind, I fixed it. In case anyone else has this problem, all you gotta do is go back in time...load an old backup for from CWM. Thanks for the help.
[Atrix 4G General] m0n3y0n7r335:
Does anyone else feel the power button is placed in a really odd spot?

A lot of times when I wake up in the middle of the night and want to check the time I end up pushing the speaker grill instead of the power button.

The first time I did it I was like wtffff broken phone already? :(

Hahha.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Yeah, very odd spot indeed. I ended up purchasing Widget Locker from the market and use the Easy Wake which allows me to wake the phone with the volume buttons. I really don't mind if the volume buttons give out over time because the phone has a built in volume manager and I can toggle between silent and all that.

It also has integration with the finger print scanner if you actually use it.

[Thunderbolt General] fillyo:
I am having trouble getting my Thunderbolt to mount as USB drive. I have checked usb debugging in settings. I am on Win 7 32 bit. When I go to device manager, I see the ADB device with a yellow triangle, which means I need the drivers? Can anyone help here?

Thanks,
[Thunderbolt General] Zenak:
It should have nothing to do with ADB, Drivers, or Debug mode. On your phone in the notifications area you should also see an option to mount as USB drive, or Enable USB storage. Once you enable that it will mount on your windows machine like a USB thumb drive.
[Thunderbolt General] fillyo:
I know, never, had an issue with my Dinc, I am pretty computer saavy. This just won't connect.

Hi everyone,

So I updated the stock SPL back to my phone while having a CDMA rom on my device. Looks not like a problem at all, but appearantly it is when your phone is not a CDMA rom :p After that the phone won't boot anymore.

Since then I am not able to update my device to ANY rom, not even the stock rom. The updater keeps giving me the famous 262 error and hangs at 0% of the update. XDA-user orfeo_b has messaged me a while ago that he had a task29 program for windows 7 to format my phone. But he didn't respond to my message. So my question is: is there anybody who has this program for my phone? and if not, is there any other possibility to empty/format my phone?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Why did you create two threads in the same forum? (THREAD LINK)

You not want to post HERE, did you even bother to do any searching in HERE :confused:

You do know the FUZE is GSM, correct?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
sorry, a second after saving I realised that my topic was a question so I posted the topic again accidentally.. I searched the whole forum for weeks but didn't find any solution. As I said, I accidentally flashed a CDMA rom to my GSM phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
User benjamminzIS started the thread HERE

Perhaps give that a once or twice over and see if it works for you. Be sure to leave some feed back if it does! ;)

Additionally, I must confess that I skimmed your post because you posted twice and didn't think anything of it after the fact. So I apologize if I came off slightly rude. Was not my intent! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
There's a pretty good chance your phone is dead now. Flashing the stock spl after bricking your phone with a cdma rom is probably the worst thing you could have done. What were you thinking? With the stock spl, you can't flash task 29, or anything, for that matter. I guess you can try flashing hard spl, but you have to keep in mind that this 'stock spl' is not in fact the real stock spl (it's a patched stock spl that is capable of over-writing the hard spl). I'm not sure if it can be over-written with hard spl; I guess you'll find out. If you had read any of the posts on reverting to stock for warranty purposes, you would have seen that the absolute last step is flashing the 'stock spl', because once you do that, the device is locked.

Now, if you also flashed a cdma 'stock spl', then you can definitely throw the phone away.

Hi,

deleted the calculator from cm7 and would like to install the brilliant one that comes with most sense roms. Found the apk, copies it over to system/app but it doesn't show up in the progs menu and fails to install should I click on it in root explorer.

Any ideas?

I really like the way its very simple, but rotating the screen gives scientific functionality.

TIA
[Desire Themes and Apps] ghiki:
Did you tried "Handycalc"?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
The htc calculator is merely a skinned stock calculator..if you are talking about the widget, afaik it cannot be done, if you just want the app then delete calculator.apk from /system/app and replace it with the attached apk (it's the gingersense one)
[Desire Themes and Apps] debully:
for some reason the one from the rom didn't rotate. This one does, tho, cheers.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dseldown:
I flashed to:

2.2.1 T959UVKB1

Kernel: 2.6.32.9

Darky's V. 9.3 XWJS5 Extreme _Edition

using a Samsung T959 Vibrant Model Phone

Everything is running well, Awesome ROM, the only two issues I'm having is there seems to be no WIFI calling and I cant receive any text now!

I searched the threads for info on this and this was all I found was A response from a thread responder:quote "Sweet honey is the smoothest out of Bionix and Darkys. At least in my opinion only item not working on it is WIFI calling" unquote

Also need an answer or suggestion on the texting issue as well!

The reason I need the WIFI calling so bad is I live so far out in the country, That I cant get a strong enough signal from T-Mobile's nearest tower to receive or call out, and when I was running the stock Froyo 2.2.1 I was able to call using the WIFI calling with my Broadband connection at my house! And I need the texting for business correspondence as well!

If there anyway to correct this and still use Darkys ROM? And IF NOT! Then what other similar ROMS to Darky's have the WIFI calling, and with no text issues!

Dont want to go back to stock If its avoidable, otherwise if there are no ROMS or fix's then I obviously have no other choice but to go back to Stock Flavor again! Which would be very sad and disappointing! :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trae23451:
It is my understanding that none of the 2.2.1 roms are capable of running WIFI calling as of yet. There are a lot of 2.2 roms out by EDT and TW that you can run WIFI calling on. I'm currently on Trigger 2.7.2 and used the bloater app to install WIFI calling and it works like a champ. I was also having some issues with texting as well on one or two of the 2.2.1 roms as well, but not all and couldn't track down the problem. Hope this helps!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dseldown:
So with the Trigger 2.7.2 are you up and running with the text and good telephony using a WIFI AP ??? With 0 defects???

And How is the GPS aquisition capabilities with trigger and what modem does it use?? I Need good GPS routing when I travel for work, just as important as the other agenda's!

If this ROM can provide all Ive asked, then it seems a winner to me, I havent seen any pic's of it though and was wondering if it looks good, also how is the speed with the kernnel it runs on??

I know alot of questions, but still trying to find the right flavor I can stay satisfied with, and stop tweaking for awhile! LOL!!

Anyways thank you for your time and effort. Appreciate YA!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trae23451:
Yep, the WIFI app from the bloater app works great, no problems with calls or texts. GPS also works great, outside get a lock usually 9/11 birds and with using the navigation app, or maps its usually spot on. GPS on the vibrant is never perfect. Trigger is KB1 base with KB1 voodoo kernel and KB1 modem. After flashing Overstock, using quadrant, which isn't an accurate benchmark but can be used for comparisons, it scored mid 1700 to low 1800. Stock kernel scored mid 1400 to low 1500. Keep in mind, all hardware is different and you may not get the same results, and whenever flashing anything, be sure you know how to odin back to stock and read the OP fully! Good luck and hopefully this helps you out!

Cheers!

On reddit, there is an AMA (ask me anything) involving a developer for VLC. One user asked when there would be a VLC app for Android and here is his response:

Thanks for the heads-up. I think things will get snowballing along once reasonably-priced HC tabs hit the market.

Hey guys

the android versions for blackstone are very well, u did a good job.

But why you don't use the "Hang up" button to go directly back to the home screen?

The prob is when i use the browser the only way to go back to the home screen is pressing the backward-button. that means it browses all the visited pages back before minimize the browser and show the home screen.

so why u don't used the turn off button to turn off the display and you the hang up button to minimize the running app and go directly to the home screen?

greetz.
[Touch HD General] teti77:

Why Android can't have same buttons behavior like WM?

is it possible? as I never hold volume key to increase/decrease volume, i always press it step by step..

do you think it would be ok like this ?

Altering button behavior is impossible. We can swap them around but HOME will always show Recent Apps when long pressed no matter to which button it is assigned (except for power). Sorry

Ah that's rough. Mine's hit the ground twice, luckily only from 12"-16" though. Some of my corner's got a little mucked up from one of them, but it almost seems to be healing itself. It actually landed on the screen that time but the screen ended up being ok, I had to change my underwear though.

How much does a screen protector really help?

Let's say i dropped it from a pretty high level onto a hard flat surface..

would it protect the screen from shattering or is it's sole purpose to resist scratches?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cobra302:
I think scratches are the best that you can hope that a screen protector will help you on. there is no way that a thin piece of plastic is going to stop a crack. i had a buddy who had an iphone 4 with a zagg invisible shield, and an otterbox defender with built in screen shield. he dropped it from waist high and shattered his screen! :eek:

[HTC Inspire 4G] synnyster:
The bestskinsever screen protectors feel like there is nothing on the screen. The only way you know there is a protector on my phone is at an angle with sunlight where you see the edge of the protector because it does not go all the way to the top by a millimeter or 2.

It really is all in the application. If you get a good application you should not see any signs of there even being a screen protector. I try not to use too much soapy water and wrap a microfiber towel around the squeegee I use.

Gunny,

They gave you a new one for the screen color deal when you press near the search button? Did you find one that doesn't exhibit this or just not as readily?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
Yeah. the sales guy went to the back got a new phone in box, then showed me it had much less play in the bottom corner. It still has a little, but you have to press really hard to see it affect the screen. My old phone was much much worse and when you pressed the corner you could hear a little click.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dacket84:
How did you even notice you had that problem in the first place? How anxious are you to search for something that you press the touch sensitive button so hard? lol :p

I didn't even notice my phone did this until I read this. You can actually get your phone replaced because of that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
@dacket,

We have three inspires and one is noticeable with normal use while the other two require a firm push, so while they may all do it, some are worth returning imo.
