Its been almost two (2) years since I last used my htc exec when the usb cable socket of the device stopped working. With my repeated failure to connect via bluetooth, I dumped the device and replaced it with nokia 5800 (no comparison!). At that time, I just don't have the patience to troubleshoot it but I recently solved it when I upgraded my laptop to windows 7 so I'm back with it now (missed the qwerty). I notice though that the keys are not as responsive as before. Any solution to this? I'm also looking for a tweeter software for win mobile, I appreciate if there are suggestions. Thank you.

Try to blow the key pad with air blower to clean it up. Or look for key pad membrane on Ebay, it costs a few bucks. If the USB cable is failty (For connecting to the PC just buy any USB to mini usb connector it should work. And can be found cheap on Ebay too. for more infor check the XDA Wiki.

Thanks bro!will try your suggestion later when I get home. For my USB cable, its just weird coz it will work when I charge the battery but it wont work when syncing. Anyway, I already addressed it via bluetooth connection. It syncs well with windows 7. Still using winmobile 6.1 by Ranju though I'm hoping I can reflash it still via bluetooth for newer roms (nothing wrong with ranju's - one of the stable roms i've ever used). Cheers!

Car Charger Problem

The description of WM6 new releases by Faria stated that finaly he solved the annoying car charger disconnection problem.
I think this has been one of the major isues of the Hermes, and until this moment nobody has been able to solve it without tweaking the conectors.
Could somebody explain how to "export" the Faria solution to any other rom (reg change, cab file...).
At the moment I'm with the last Elf rom and don't have time for a new change.
Thanks
(I have made this question on Faria's post but no answer at the moment)
I dont have that problem with my hermes, maybe because Im using the i.Trek semsons automount

Hi.
I solved this problem time ago buying a new car charger for my Hermes, and issue dissapears, no matter wat ROM i use
Not all car charges are the same, take a look and buy one specifically for Hermes...
bear in mind that there are also two different pin configurations for miniUSB connectors.
my father has one miniUSB connector for his GPS and another seemingly identical one for his hermes. one works on the hermes, the other does not.
Thanks for your comments.
I know that there are special chargers that will work, but I use one with 2 USB female connector in wich I can conect at same time an usb+psp double cable (for my Hermes and my Creative Zen Extra) and a single usb cable (for my Leadtek GPS).
I prefer to avoid more gadgets arround, and if there is a free software solution....
I had the same problem. I found a way around it, it's not elegant but it works.
Disconnect and reconnect the battery while the car charges is connected.
It works every time.

There is an easier solution, but not always works. Just connect the hermes while it is in standby.
...
Regarding the real solution announced with the new roms, it should be the chef secret recipe....
I used to suffer from this all the time, now it works 100%. I am running Black 3.5 but I think it was fixed back in Black 2.0 / XDA Live 0.2 time. I am using the same cable I used back then.
The workaround I used to do was, if it didnt start charging, to just soft reset the device and it would charge every time.
-- Phil
im guessing with the faria solution it only sends 500ma to the phone still, but yes working great so far with the Faria rom.
I did have the correct charger cable but then it got mixed up or broken and have not found it since. (it had the correct pins and thus charged at a much faster rate the the usb sync cable rate.
My interest in this is improperly designed devices, such as the Garmin Mobile 20 GPS receiver. It has a method of powering the connected phone/PDA by means of a cable, but it doesn't work on the TyTN (although it does work with a friend's T-Mobile SDA).
The unit clearly gives enough power to charge the TyTN, as connecting it then doing a soft-reset works. I just have no hope that Garmin will fix this issue, even though I have pointed them to one of the larger threads on car chargers, and what has to be done to make them work (I suspect that a new charging cable on their end would be enough to make it work). Thus, a software fix that works with the various ROMs out there would be a good thing.
-- Joe
I would also like to know this.
my sister and father both have hermes i would like to implement this change which has caused my dad MANY porblems without havnig to upgrade him to WM06 and invalidate his warentee.
I bought some cheap no-name USB car charger labled for Motorola Razr I believe... I was confused as to why it seemed to work intermittently. I recently found the answer - you must have the car charger live before you plug it into the Hermes. So I:
1. Plug in the car charger to the cigar lighter
2. Start or turn on the car
3. Then plug it into the Hermes.
Works 100% now.
everyone keeps missing the point...
there are several work arrounds!!!
BUT somone has managed to work out how to get the software ROM to behave properly.. this is better than ANY work arround or special adapter....
this software is what we require. (please!) stop explaining you special connection methods its not what is being asked for...

can USB A/C connector in TyTN be used out??

hi!
When I plugged my TyTN into PC via USB or to A/C charger I found that LCD is not displaying properly the today screen, it was getting white and some colour lines showed for few seconds. It was randomly changing and showing and hiding... and caused that I can't work with device.
What was diagnosed by me that when I move the USB jack fitted in port to left or right it helped to come back to OK status.
So I used (in anger) my strenght and fixed my machine for longer time (don't ask how but i'm curious if usb port located in TyTN can be used out???
someone any experience??

As with any device, the hermes will get to the end of its life. And usb ports can break quite easly if your not carefull or unlucky.
Thats why I never use the wired headphones, dont want to kill my port.
Glad to see you got yours working again though! (your lucky you didnt break it fully, by using to much strength )

i hope it will work as long as possible
you know i'm using wired headset quite often and quite often plug in usb a/c in my car so maybe that why it is sending me singnals that he have enough
maybe when this brick will stop working it will be good argument for my wife to purchase new WM device (Diamond maybe)

+1 on the kaiser for the next phone man... i'll be around for a while in hermes though
You can always buy a new usb port, but make sure you have a good soldering iron, and very good eyes. The 5 pins on the base of the port are extremely small and close together. If you don't have a magnifying glass, it could be a nightmare.

If that's the case, I'd just snap that port off now.

Kaiser is a mess I think, with all the non-accelerated video etc problems.
I'm eyeballing with Sony's XPERIA but only when it becomes $300-400 and only if no Android will match it by then - because XPeria's initial $1k price won't go down in less than 6-8 months and most like by then (practically next Spring) the second wave of Android-based phones will be arriving, beating XPERIA in everything at less than half the price...

The Omni software driver and HTC class action drivers do the job fine I dont even use any D3D stuff.
The extra ram and the faster cpu sound good to me.

Device suddenly not detected via usb

Greetings,
My unlocked, rooted, and JB flashed GNEX suddenly will not be detected on any machine I connect it to. XP, vista, W7. It charges fine, and detects as charging when connected to a PC. Machine's will not detect it as even connected. No errors.
I recently had two developments to my device that leave me uncertain as to what might be the cause of this issue:
1. Device went for a short swim. Dried out in rice, but not working properly. Disassembled and bathed in alcohol, then dried again, and it seemed to be revived, with the exception of an extremely short wifi range, both when connecting to an AP, or running as a hotspot.
2. Before the swim, I had recently flashed the Ascent VZ JB rom. I can't recall if I attempted to connect to a PC after the flash.
I have insurance, but would prefer not to use it, if possible.
I have tried fastboot mode, debug on and off with no luck. I should think that on a totally foreign machine, that some sort of detection and driver installation should be intiated, but nothing.
Any ideas of more testing I can do, before writing off the unit and replacing it?
Gary
I've been having issues like this with mine too. Running Xenon HD. USB port seems to be hit or miss the last couple weeks. I'm also contemplating a warranty replacement.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856164 try that. I had a detection problem. Might not be related but you never know

If you haven't already tried this: open the device manager, then connect the phone. Monitor the device manager for newly detected devices. If the PC doesn't detect anything being connected, I doubt there's much you can do.
Thanks everyone, I appreciate the input.
Unfortunately, nothing is detected on any machine. Device manager is empty. Machines that used to detect it don't, and new machines don't either. I am in I.T.,...and have way to many PCs for my own good. Oh yes...not detected in Ubuntu either.
I disassembled my phone again today, and rechecked the wireless antenna, and the USB port, but still no luck. I think I may just have to pony up the $100 and use my insurance.
Thanks again,
Gary

Thanks strumcat, I found that link this morning. Great minds think alike! I am sourcing the part right now. I have disassembled my phone about 15 times since its bath.

Check and see if the device can be seen by adb, assuming you have the Android SDK and adb drivers set up.
If it's not detected, as stated above, there may not be a whole lot you can do.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Thanks for the info. No luck with ADB.
If I purchase the micro USB board, I am out $40, with no guarantee it will resolve the issue. Then I still have the wifi range issue that may or may not be resolved by replacing another module for about $40.
Since that I will be most likely out $80 to possibly get it back to perfect, I think I am going to just shell out the $100 and get a replacement. Hopefully, it will be new one, not a refurb.
Gary
Sometimes when I have USB debugging enabled, my PC does not detect my phone. I have to disable USB debugging before connecting my phone, it detects it and then enable USB Debugging while the phone is connected. That usually works for me.

It will be a refurbished one. Why don't you just drop carrier insurance and pull a "stand alone" policy with whoever does your auto/home/renters insurance? Costs next to nothing really. Cheaper than carrier. Added bonus...? They send you a check. For actual replacement costs. After a year of premiums and the 150 deduct thru carrier its pretty much $300 for a repaired phone. You paid less for a new one. Yearly, the stand alone is half to 3/4 the price of carrier. Deduct varies, but its less also. And its actual price to get new phone. If comparable one is 800..check for 800. Ask your insurance guy about it. If no stand alone, get renters insurance for like 6$ a month. Still cheaper.
Tried Everything, Found the solution. (I will post this elsewhere, too)
So, I have spent two days with this problem. I've searched the entire godamn internet... only to find a surprising solution.
Regardless of what I had tried, my computer refused to detect my GNex. Toggled MTP, etc, Retoggled USB debugging, all that.
No matter what I would do, the PC would classify it an 'unknown device' !!!
What I had tried:
-Deleting all drivers, tried different driver sources (ex . Samsung's driver instead of Google's SDK, and even tried universal ADB drivers)
- Ensuring 'force fast charge' was disabled in both my kernel settings. (even disabled it in terminal emulator)
- Factory reset device (and quickly restored it back to the way it was, as this was not the problem)
-Three different PC's (Two Windows 7 PC's and 1 Ubuntu)
-Deleting all USB drivers on my computers and then attempting to connect via MTP or ADB, nothing.
-Even stepped through some drivers guides, including Nexus root toolkit (Even tried all 4 solutions, out of frustration).
My friend then suggested that maybe my USB internal port was dirty. I looked at it under a magnifying glass and to me, honestly it looked clean. I could clearly see the terminals,. Again, out of frustration, I tried this as a shot in the dark ------ I took a dry, new clean artists' brush and I brushed it out.
VOILA. I plug it in, and it installs the ADB interface first shot.
I really wasn't expecting this. I guess it should be expected , I carry this phone around in my pocket and it goes through hell, but one would expect charging problems as well. I guess a piece of pocket crud just so perfectly covered up the Data +/- in the middle of my USB port.
Try this, my friends. Having a non-functional USB port on a phone that screams "root me" is the most frustrating thing.

[QUESTION] Desktop Phone?

Hi Everybody!
I've been looking on forum for a thread similar but i couln't find one, so i'll try to explain what i'm trying to do with my phone and let's see if someone already got it.
Well, since i got the SGS3 on my hands for the fist time, i could feel how much hardware it does have and thinking about how much it's portable and easy to take, so i start to thinking if is posible to make some kind of "DeskDock" with some accesories.
I have a Logitech Unifying keyboard and a mouse wich means that with only one dongle i can connect both devices to it. Last week i brought a OTG cable and i tryed to connect it on my phone and it worked almost perfectly (some issues with keyboard layout, but nothing else), i got impressed that all functions keys from my keyboard was working.
Ok, got this point i was thinking how could i connect my OTG cable and also a MHL cable, so i can have HDMI-OUT and my keyboard and mouse working.
If this work i can have a totally functional desktop with 24 inches screen. I know that maybe people wont see any sense making it, but in my case i don't have a Netbook (i don't even like) and if i could get this working, i was thinking about run linux on my phone and get a full desktop experience.
Is anybody there who tried it?
I was thinking about some kind of USB HUB, but i have no idea if my phone would support it...

Why not just by an "android PC" or the android TV box. It is basically a powerful tablet computer in a 3 inch square box with HDMI, two or three usb ports, wireless wifi and and SD card port. Cost less than $75 or you can spend more and even get a dual core . I have one on both of my big screen tv's with a wireless mouse (but for pc application you just use a combo keyboard mouse. Much easier and much more simple.

For most of us, it is the ability to take our "PC" with us, as a working tablet. For others, it is that when we get home, we want to just plug in our phone, and have larger everything.. but still use all the apps, and bookmarks etc that are the on the phone. For the rest.. it is about the cool factor.

HP lap dock

I recently obtained the HP lapdock for a fair price. This works via USB c connection just fine. I've been looking into how to get the wifi direct connection to work with no luck BUT I know its possible.
OXI rom has been able to successfully connect to the HP lapdock. See this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAWbDg4hcYc
I have no idea how to try to even get this to work but my guess is it relies on something to do with the wifi direct api somewhere in the phone. Anyone want to take a look into this or know someone that could port this?
Thanks
OXI reached out after I contacted them. So if we could get Lineage support we could get OXI support. Anyone know how to build Lineage? Lol or know someone that could build it for us?

Hi I'm trying to use the hp lapdock on my mate 10 just get a blank screen when connecting do I need a special cable using the USB C cable that came with the Dock
There is a Dell Dock that works with the Razer phone, Tested it with keyboard, mouse and Monitor (HDMI output from the Dock, DP ports wont work)

Trying turning off the dock, plug in the cable, turn the dock on, when it gets to the cable or wireless screen plug in the phone. I use the item cord. Sometimes takes 15 tries =/

Still no joy just the blank display although it's connected as when I press the keyboard it does stuff on my phone tried every combination on start up. So annoying but thanks anyway
So updated to 8.1 Oreo, enabled Miracast from build prop, it will attempt to connect as the screen goes black on the Dock the phone force reboots. No idea whats causing it. Attached is the logcat, if anyone can look at it and assist I would be grateful.
If you need more info from a logcat just tell me what I missed. I refuse to give up on this and will continue researching and tinkering.
Also gonna try some Treble GSI's see if they work. Starting with AOKP
I downgraded my Razer phone to the 7.1.1 Android version and I STILL can't get this thing to work with the HP lapdock. Tried using the usb-c cable it shipped with, tried using a thunderbolt 3 cable...only the keyboard will work. The screen and track-pad are a no-go. The Galaxy S9 works with little fuss, so I know it's no a problem on the lapdock's end.
Ugh. I just want this thing to work.
i have a mate 20 pro, blackscreen with cable an no connection with wirelles. did someone get it to work?

I've recently bought a refurbished Lap dock from an italian seller on Ebay to use with my Blackberry Key2 (Android Oreo) and I must say it is a brilliant solution. I come from the Sentio Superbook, witch is also a very interesting solution, but the Lap dock is definitely better: screen, keyboard, touchpad have no comparison... The Sentio desktop app, anyway, works very well and offers an (almost) true desktop environment.
I haven't had any particolar problem connecting the lapdock to my smartphone, even if sometimes the screen doesn't light up, using the standard cable. I think the best way is to insert the usb c cable ony after the screen is showing the two connection options, first in the lapdock and then in the smartphone. Key presses in the touchpad don't work, but gestures are just fine once you get used to them.
I've also tried the wireless connection using the Miracast app: recognizes the screen, but the touchpad doesn't work and the keyboard is double typing every character. So basically it is useless. Hope it can help someone...

Was wondering if you ever got this to work?
no sorry, never got it working. would have been great. Maybe with some other lapdock in the future.
So it works with the Razer 1 through the cable? I have the lapdock and I'm shopping for a new phone but I'm not interested in the Note 9 which is supposed to work great with the lapdock as well.

It doesn't work wonderfully, YouTube can't run some of the time, and the audio doesn't work at all really. Just through head phones. Even with the new Dex updates. But it is fine in a pinch.
