[Q] System volume issue

From time to time I could notice my system volume going up to max. I couldn't find out what going on. Now I know, anytime press the dialer on system volume going up and i always turn it down, very annoying (because keyboard, lock screen etc.) I know I can do hard reset or switch volume off. This is stock DHD software 2.3.3.
Thank you

same gere

I think only hard reset

Time to root and install a custom ROM.

not sure if this will help or not but have you tried an app called 'volume control'
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.revsodev.volumecontrol
i've found it very useful because sometimes my system volume would decrease for no reason. with this you can adjust all of your volume settings easily

Yes, I tried this one and many others that is only solution until you press dialer again.

[Q] Problem with nandroid backup

I have rooted my HTC Desire with unrevoked and alpharev and now i was going to do a nandroid backup. But when i press the backup and restore button the screen goes black and just stays that way, so i have to pull the battery and restart it. Can anyone help me with this?

What button? ROM Manager? Do it from recovery, and make sure you have enough free space on your sd card (~300MB minimum).
I found out the hard way what happens if you don't.

That's what i'm doing. I turn the phone off. Turn it on by pressing volume down and the on-button. I then go into recovery and scroll down to backup and restore, and press the on-button. Then the screen just goes black and i have to pull the battery and restart it.

Press the trackpad rather than the standby button! This should have the desired effect

[HELP] Stucked in Hboot

My Desire has just came contact with water yesterday.
I suppose everything is fine.
Just that my volume rocker(vol. down) is stuck.
So whenever I try to turn on my phone, it will bring me to the hboot.
I can't even use the volume rocker to get me to the recovery
Is there anyway that I can turn on my phone?
Thank you very much

Can't you move in hboot at all (vol up?)?
Have you tried vol down + power + trackball to reboot your phone? (This way you wouldn't start the phone with power and vol down, maybe that's enough to boot into the rom.)
However if you boot into rom a whole new set of nightmares would greet you. Phone always silent etc. (Yet you might be able to use button remapper to assign "nothing" to that button.)
If I were you I would pop out battery and put the phone in slightly elevated temperature (white some free air movement) and hope it would completely dry out. That would probably enough to fix the switch. How long did you let your phone dry after "weting" it?

Stick your phone in rice with the battery out for a few days, then boot into Fastboot (back & power), and run a RUU. You can find one for your network from shipped-roms.com. Just make sure you download a Froyo one not an Eclair one.

Hmm, I've tried the rice method it doesn't work
I've left it for around 12 hours
I disassembled the whole and sever the volume circuit already :X
However.. it still doesn't work
It still forces me into hboot
I can't seems to get to fast boot either
It would be fine If i can gain control in hboot, so I can boot into recovery and boot into system.
I only want to save all my messages before.. dumping the phone :x
If there any other ways?
Thank you for the help

U can use ButtonRemapper (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464) to assign volume functionality to other buttons. This only works within the booted rom, however.

Hmm.. do you have any idea of disabling the volume button?

I'm not sure, what happens if you edit volume down and set state to 'none' in remapper?
Or you can try editing
/system/usr/keylayout/bravo-keypad.kl
(needs root and system mounted as R/W)
and delete the characters after key 115 and key 114 (or maybe even delete both lines)
create a backup first (or if u use Root Explorer's Text editor it will create automatically create one before saving)

Oh, okay, thank you, once again, you have save my life!!
Tried the mapper, but phone keep restarting

Sorry for the trouble again :x
It seems that when I lock my phone, the phone will automatically wakes up
I don't think it is the power button, as when I'm using my phone, my phone doesn't auto lock itself...
It just auto wakes
Is there any app, there can find which button is faulty?

What rom are you using?
In BCM (CM9 source) there are two options in settings/display at the bottom in wakeup options section: volume rocker wake and trackball wake. If you have those, uncheck them.

Dont think so, using a sense rom

This would probably work if he didn't power the phone on - which he did. After that, damage has been done. In my liquid cooling my pc experience, if the short circuit happened, the game is over in 99% of the cases.

[Q] Please Help: HTC One X Buggered :(

Hi All,
Please help me if you can with the problem I am now experiencing
HTC One X is my first android phone, i have had it for about 3 months. It has been brilliant ever since i had it
However last night I installed the Amazon APP Store as its now available in the UK. Ever Since my phone has gone absolutely haywire
Its a real stuggle to get it on, if you hold down Power it vibrates and the 3 lights flash a few times, then nothing. Sometimes it comes on! Then when its on its DEAD slow, like really really slow, also after a minute or so the resolution changes and things are all in the wrong place; then the touchscreen doesnt respond, so i turn it off and the cycle continues
I have managed to get back on it, and to get rid of the Amazon App store but I am still facing the same difficulities.
My HTC One X is UK version and is on stock ICM.
Do you have any ideas how I can return it to working order?
Also: DAMN YOU AMAZON
EDIT: BTW, when i press power, the lights at the bottom are on, and i can hear the volume sound change, but no screen. I am trying to factory reset but cant get the phone working long enough to find it

If you press and hold power button + volume down at the same time the phone will boot into Bootloader. From there you can do a factory reset. Navigate with volume keys to Hboot and use power button as confirm. There should be an option there for factory reset..

maybe try hooking it up to a pc, getting into fastboot and erasing the cache...?

Unfortunately i cannot get the PC to look for it, and i cant get into the thing where you hold down power and down arrow
I think the screen has totally given up, which i dont understand; this was always a software issue

Install a RUU matching your device and then see what happens. If that doesn't solve it, then MAYBE hardware issue.

[Q] Screen doesn't wake up

Hello!
I need some help, I have a problem with my Wildfire. When I press the power button, the screen does not wake up, only after I press it several times does it wake up, and other times I have to remove the battery to get it to work again. Tried the solution for brightness settings bug, it's not helping, tried factory reset, no help either. Also, when I press the power button, the back button, search, home and menu, all light up, but the screen is black. The ROM I'm using is DK Custom Froyo.
Does anyone know what to do?
Thanks in advance.

I tried pressing the trackball, but nothing happens, I will try flashing my ROM, I was going to flash it as a last resort, but thanks for your advice.
I'll let you know if it helps to reflash.

It could also be that your min CPU frequency is set too low.

Reflashing didn't help, I'll try modifying the CPU frequency.
Yesterday, I turned the phone off and it took me 4 hours to power it back on, when I pressed the power button, it just vibrated once and that's it, and when I tried to power it with volume up and power, it vibrated 3 times and green led turned on but nothing more, volume down and power gave me no reaction on the phone, I think that my Wildfire is probably getting to the point of no return, so to speak.
