I have two Motorola 820HT Bluetooth headsets. From day one I had no problems with them. (they even worked better on the G2 than my TP2 and EVO 4g) I woke up last Friday to find the G2 trying to update. After the update every thing worked fine until I got a call at work. I listen to a LOT of music/radio/podcast etc.... anyway i was listing to some music and the phone rings, here's where the problems lies. After I hung up the ONLY way a can resume playing music though the headset is to turn them off, then turn them back on. It dose the same thing on both of them. I even tried my friends JBTH710 headset and had the same problem. I can see the numbers moving in the music player, but no audio comes out until I turn off then turn on. Has anyone else had this problem; and if so what did you do to fix it? Taking the phone back to T-mobile for a replacement (to get a phone without the update) is not a answer because without wifi calling I can't use the phone at home.
Just to be clear (I'm not the best typist in the world) If I get a call with Bluetooth parried to my phone and I want to listen to something though my headset after the call, ( it can be five hours after the call) I have to turn off the headset then turn them back on.
Thank you for any feedback that helps me or anyone with this problem solve it.
Having the same problem as you
I think I have figured it out its the new bluetooth 2.2 that was used with the OTA. I think if we can get the old one from the pre-OTA and adb push it to the system it could work. This problem has made my bluetooth radio useless in the car when I get a call and hang up it should go were it left off from the music or podcast but you can see its still playing but no sound. So always have to disconnect bluetooth and reconnect it for it to work again. So if anybody has the pre-OTA please use adb and pull the bluetooth and upload it to rapidshare or whoever you use to were I can try this and see if it fixes the problem.
My parrot evo 3k (Parrot v5.11c) won't connect with my G2. I haven't tried with original rom, but this problem exists on the Ota, CM RC3, and CM RC4. My G1 had a similar problem in some froyo builds, but I think it was fixed in RC1 or the nighties. I know it worked great from dream-sapphire 230 or so on. Can a BT from older builds be pushed in to recent builds?
Tried adb pushing the old bluetooth.apk from the first rom to the new ota and it didn't work. I think its the new radio in the ota that messed up the bluetooth from working right I think I'm going to maybe flash the old radio and see if that works. And if anyone is experiencing this issue and you have solved the problem please let us know how you did it .

G2 TMOBILE OTA BROKE UP MY BLUETOOTH.. Here is how i fixed it...
I AM SURE THAT EVERYONE ALREADY KNOWS THIS. BUT I WANT TO SAY UP FRONT.. WHENEVER YOU TRY TO ROOT YOUR PHONE AND CHANGE THE ROM, YOU RUN THE RISK OF PERMANENTLY BRICKING YOUR PHONE.
With that being said, I will start my rant.
ISSUE: I would be connected with my stereo headset listening to music. The
phone would ring an the music paused. I was able to take the call on the headset without issue. After hanging up on the call, the music would never resume on the headset. The music was streaming on the device but no music on the headset. I had to toggle Bluetooth off then back on to get it to work again. It seemed that the A2DP bluetooth connection would get corupted everytime a call was replaced or received. I tried 5 different A2DP enabled bluetooth devices and they all did the same thing. These 5 bluetooth devices all worked just fine with my Mytouch and my G1. So it definatelty was the phone. T-mobile tried to tell me that all of my bluetooth devices must have been broken. They are the thing that is broken. On my G2, I have had a lot of connectivity issues with bluetooth and wifi after that stupid OTA update.
QUICK WORKAROUND but at a price : Just go to bluetooth settings and toggle off the phone bluetooth connection but leave the media connected. You will need to take all calls on the phone handset but the music (A2DP) connection will not be broken when a call is placed or received. If you have multiple bluetooth devices, you need to change this setting for each device.
T-mobile claimed that it was the radio firmware From HTC.
T-Mobile tried to tell me that it was an HTC issue and HTC tried to tell me that it was a T-mobile issue.
HTC was correct and T-Mobile is a bunch of morons as usual.
My PERMANENT fix Listed below... 1 I rooted the phone. (Permanent Root) 2I installed Rom Manager and selected "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" (v2.5.1.3) then I rebooted into recovery and did a backup. That will get you a backup of your stock phone. 3Next, I wiped all data on the phone (from the recovery screen) and then installed Cyanogen 6.1.1 for the G2 (CyanogenMod-6.1.1-vision) 4Rebooted into Recovery and installed google apps.
MY BLUETOOTH NOW ROCKS! WORKS PERFECTLY. The WIFIis also working flawlessly now.
A few issues you should be aware of before changing the ROM. 1 You will lose swype if you don't grab the 2 swype files from your phone right after you root. 2 Before doing ANYTHING,, go into your settings and let Google back up your Data then manually initiate a sync in settings so you know that your app data has been backed up to google, Android will pull the T-Mobile WIFI CALIING app back to the phone automatically after you install the Cyanogen mod and sign into your google account on the phone. I also read somewhere that wifi calling was included in cyanogen. So I am not sure which is the reason it ends back up on your phone with cyanogen but it does. 3 You will also need to install the google package to get all your google apps back.
..........................................................................................................
..........................................................................................................
Exactly what I did. (NO ROOM FOR MISTAKES ON THE ROOTING !!!.. BE CAREFUL, HAVE A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY, TAKE YOUR TIME AND HAVE NO DISTRACTIONS!)
Make sure that you fully read the whole Rooting Procedure 3 times before you attempt it.
ROOTING ........
I rooted from the link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2
There is a lot of info on the above linked page.. below are the lines from where i started and stopped. I did no more than what is in between the following start and end lines. (you can just search for the text on the page to find quickly)
STARTING FROM THE LINE: Rooting the Vision (G2/DZ) and DHD
ENDING ON THE LINE: Did it work? Here's what you're looking for:
YOUR G2 SHOULD NOW BE ROOTED AT THIS POINT BEFORE CONTINUING ON.
......................................................................................................
......................................................................................................
BACKING UP SWYPE
DOWNLOAD ASTRO FILEMANAGER FROM THE MARKET.
There are 2 files you must copy from phone memory to SD card.
These files are "Swype.apk" and "libSwypeCore.so"
The apk file is located in /system/app and
the so file is located in /system/lib
Both of these locations are in the phone memory an not the SD card.
You just copy and paste to get them to your sd card.
MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOOSE SWYPE.
BACKUP WI-FI CALLING AND QUICK OFFICE
Both files are located in /system/apps (on phone memory)
Copy the following 2 files to your SD card
WI-FI Calling install file - "MS-HTCVISION-KNT20-02.apk"
QuickOffice install file - "Quickoffice.apk"
......................................................................................................
AFTER THE PHONE HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED AND YOU REMEBERED TO GRAB THE 2 SWYPE FILES
INSTALL ROM MANAGER....
Go to the market and install ROM Manager. Start Rom Manager.
Select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" (v2.5.1.3) when it is done installing
select "Reboot into Recovery" to make sure it works. Once in recovery highlight and select "reboot system now" After phone has booted back up, proceed with steps below.
......................................................................................................
DOWNLOAD CYANOGEN ROM 6.1.1 ......
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/file/186-update-cm-611-vision-signedzip/
DOWNLOAD GOOGLE APPS FILE.....
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/download/152-google-addon-hdpi-20101114/
(I would recommend only downloading this from cyanogen and nowhere else. There is a corrupt version floating around on a few different sites with the same name.)
TO INSTALL CYANOGEN MOD.....
1Connect your phone to PC and mount the SD card. Copy the cyanogen mod file and the google apps file to the root of the G2's SD card.
(update-cm-6.1.1-vision-signed.zip and gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip)
2Boot your phone into Recovery
(While in recovery highlight & select with optical trackball)
3Select "backup and restore" then select "backup"
(This will backup your stock OS, Apps and Data from phone to sd card)
4Select "wipe data/factory reset" Scroll down to "Yes -- delete all user data"
5Select "install zip from sd card" then select "choose zip from sd card"
then scroll to the cyanogen mod file (update-cm-6.1.1-vision-signed.zip) and select it. When the process is complete press the back button to go back to the main recovery menu and select "reboot system now"
6You need to install the google apps now. After the phone boots up with cyanogen, reboot the phone back into recovery. Select "install zip from sd card" then select "choose zip from sd card" then scroll to the google install file (gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip) and select it. When the process is complete press the back button to go back to the main recovery menu and select "reboot system now"
7Restore Swype
Copy from the SD card (it is on your SD card wherever you put it) "libSwypeCore.so" to /system/lib (which is phone memory. I used an app called RootExplorer from the market. I needed to use that to make the /system/lib directory writable. When you first start RootExplorer, the superuser app will pop up a permission box. Make sure you select "allow" or this won't work.)
Then go in astro filemanager, navigate to "Swype.apk" (it is on your SD card wherever you put it) and tap it to install.
Now you need to make Swype active..
- (from the home screen) Select "MENU" then "Settings" then "Language & keyboard"
- Tick on Swype
- Go to your text messaging app (make sure physical phone keyboard is closed)
- Tap in the text box to type a message.
- Long press on text entry box and select "Input method"
- Then select Swype
You will then have your Swype back.
8 Restore WI-FI Calling if it isn't already installed.
go in astro filemanager, navigate to "MS-HTCVISION-KNT20-02.apk" (it is on your SD card wherever you put it) and tap it to install.
9 Restore Quick Office.
go in astro filemanager, navigate to "Quickoffice.apk" (it is on your SD card wherever you put it) and tap it to install.
.........................................................................................................
WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR PHONE ALL SET UP JUST THE WAY YOU WANT, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR..... REBOOT TO RECOVERY AND RUN A BACKUP.

Enjoy your fixed bluetooth
Wow, what a lot of crap to fix someones mistake......

I just flashed a new ROM and now the Bluetooth works like it should. Gingervillian 1.5 awesome.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I appreciate your detailed explanation! I am a complete noob. I just rooted my g2 a few days ago and trying to read as much as I can and get up to speed.
I do have a question for you as far as backing up swype and other apps. Can you just use titanium backup to back up your apps like swype, quickoffice etc? Thanks in advance.
I was thinking of doing your method mentioned above as well as using titanium backup just because I'm paranoid about losing apps/bricking my phone, etc. Trying to be as careful as possible.
(Backed up and still running stock rom on rooted g2, have installed oc kernel after backing up)
Well, I've been using InsertCoin-Vision v1.3 ROM (which in my opinion are among the bests) on my T-Mobile G2. With this ROM and with VIRTUOUS FUSION ROM by rmk I have no problems with the bluetooth A2DP.
Nevertheless, I had a A2DP bluetooth problem (reported here forums.t-mobile.com/t5/T-Mobile-G2/Post-OTA-Update-BlueTooth-issue/td-p/542367): when I connect my phone to the car stereo player (JVC AVX-33) thru bluetooth A2DP the audio cuts out and skips all the time when the music is playing (I use PowerAmp application). It happens with almost ALL ROMs, no matter if it's stock, CM6, CM7, xboarders or RMK's (Virtuous G-Lite for example)... except with the VIRTUOUS FUSION and InsertCoin-Vision (v1.2 or 1.3) !!!!
Well, I'm very happy about this fact, but I'd like to know if you could explain to me the difference between Virtuous Fusion or InsertCoin-Vision (where the problem is solved) and Virtuous G-Lite or Cyanogen7 (where the problem occurs) in terms of bluetooth libs, config, etc., that could have solved that problem.
By the way, I used to listen music with the same car stereo and my old Motorola Milestone and I had no problem at all.
Thanks in advance and excuse me to bother you with this kind of question.
Best regards,
Tiago Peixoto.
My problem is that my cars headunit will not automatically connect to my phone or visa versa. i have to manually connect the phone to the car. Its really anoying. Now that I have perm root I have been testing several ROMs and have yet to find one that will actually fix the problem mentioned throughout this post. I just installed the Virtious Unity ROM but have yet to see if the problem is gone. With the Virtious Sense ROM I still had the same problem.
@ iagocpeixoto I've had the same issue with the audio cutting in and out in the past on stock ROM. The problem was that WiFi was also enabled. Its weird but disabling WiFi will eliminate that fading in and out while listening to audio through Bluetooth.

I'm having some lingering issues with my EVO even after running OTA updates. I am running a rooted stock ROM, currently software version 1.32.651.6 (I have not attempted the latest OTA update yet).
In particular are two problems - SD card issues have remained even after the OTA update. This was present even before rooting but after installing the first update (I went to a "full-service" store on opening day and they set it up themselves, assuming everyone would want it - luckily I could still get root). Issues include the Camera application reporting permissions problems randomly when trying to save pictures to the SD card, HTC's music application freaking out and coming to a near freeze trying to crawl the SD card during one of its troublesome spurts, and files disappearing from file explorers. So basically run of the mill, pre-first-OTA sd card problems. But occurring after the update and both before/after rooting.
Second is a problem with the camera itself. When first booting, HTC's included photo/video application will instantly crash after showing the camera icon on the black background. Google Goggles freezes for about 10 seconds then reports it was unable to connect to the camera. After the phone being on for about half an hour, these issues (seemingly) go away until the next reboot.
Last, and least frequent but still troubling, is a problem with the device powering on. At least twice I have been unable to get the device to turn on after powering it off, forcing a pull and replace of the battery to get it working again.
As far as I know, all of these issues could be either hardware or software. Even the power problem - my best guess is that the phone never powers off fully, but is instead locked inside of a deep sleep state and thus can not turn on until a battery pull forces the entire system off.
The questions being - first, are there any known solutions to the above problems? I have found many threads in particular regarding SD card issues, but none that seem to report these problems post-update. The others I have seen little to nothing about.
Second - if there are not known solutions, would it be prudent to return the phone as it may likely be a hardware problem?
Since it seems I'm forced to take the last update if I get a replacement, I may likely have problems getting a full root back. I'd like to avoid that if possible - having root works wonders for doing application development using non-native (unexposed) API's (Which - side note - since I'm developing for 2.1 at the moment, other than hacking for direct access to a Surface, does anyone know of a _fast_ way to do direct blits from native code? glTexImage2d is insanely slow).
Thanks all any help. Again, apologize if any of these are solved and gone problems, but I wasn't able to procure anything myself.
I'd go for the replacement, sounds like a defective unit..
Be sure that the folks here at xda will get root working regardless of OTA.
replace the unit, i'm very particular about my phones, if there is anything wrong with it I replace it.
I too have the SD card issue, I have updated, i have rooted, re-rooted, flashed new rom, different roms (fresh and sd) and it has always given me the sd card issue. Sometimes it wants to be a pain and not work at all, sometimes its good for at least a week or two. I am waiting for a little longer to make sure when I get a replacement its a newer version.
SD card permission errors --- POSSIBLE FIX
I hope/think/believe I fixed this error for those interested, I use my EVO for work and need it to work without a hitch....
Here goes (**Note i am a noob with smartphones with a dangerous amount of IT knowledge - disclaimer for those brave enough to browse around the root files and SD card files; I am not responsible for you bricking your phone, I am only trying to help those in need and putting in my 2 cents_)
Download and open the app ---> Root Explorer (or any other root explorer for that matter) from Android market.
Once Root Explorer is open (look up top/left it will say) Mounted as r/o (means read only) - press the white button to mount it as r/w (read & write)
Press and long hold on the SD card directory (folder) - you will get another window from which you must select the permissions option.
Under top option USER - check all marks -- READ WRITE AND EXECUTE & click OK.
VERY IMPORTANT - Click on the (white button) Mount as r/o to write protect your root files on your phone again.
I just applied this fix about 45 mins ago and seems to be working......updates to come if issues persist or re-surface. (**Note I could not see photos or play music and some apps were also giving me FCs (intermittently) due to permission or write errors to SD card; and now it seems to be working like nothing ever happened.)
What I have ::: stock ROM on EVO supersonic with recent HTC updates applied - standard 8Gig SD card provided with phone / had rooted but put back stock ROM for preference issues.
Hope this info helps some folks...very frustrating issue.
Cheers
SD card permission errors --- POSSIBLE FIX
ONE LAST SIDENOTE COMMENT -
I transfer data to my PC often (running Win 7 32bit_)
It is crucial that you right click on "safely remove hardware" icon on the lower right side (next to date and time) and WAIT until windows tells you
..."It is now safe to remove your hardware" --- I was just taking the plug out when done and it appears as if that could have started or compounded these issues with the SD card.
I too get the could not connect problems at times. And I have lost access to the SD card a few times. Some say its Fring that causes the problem. But after removing it I still have camera issues. I noticed that having the LED Light on while trying to open the camera will cause this problem.
I am running CM6 RC1 so this is to be expected from Release Candidates. Sit tight. It will get fixed.
Well after a full 24 hrs...no issues with the read write error on my EVO SD card, I think that when the phone is removed from PC incorrectly (i.e. pulling USB cable out in mode other than "Charge only" i.e. HTC sync, Disk Drive, Internet sharing - it causes it to "corrupt" the permissions on the SD card - It is still working like a champ and i am waiting impatiently for my EVO Froyo update ... feedback appreciated for those whom tried this fix and had it work....txs
@LF142
Hi there. So I followed all of your instructions above and downloaded Root Explorer. However, every time I change the permissions, they don't save. User, Group and Other is always switched off at root level. Do you think this may mean my SD card is corrupted?
I rooted it with BakedSnack.
I now want to un-root it as I miss taking shots, looking at my shots, listening to my tunes etc.
But I want to keep all my apps. All my texts and everything else. Whats the best way to go about this? I am also a bit of a n00b and I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, but when Froyo releases tomorrow (apparently) do I have to unroot to receive the update?
Thanks
I noticed this problem after removing that annoying CDROM.ISO file from /system/etc/. A pop up appears after you plug in your phone to a PC. It automatically mounts this as a CD Drive and tries to get you to install something to your PC, f***ing verizon and their stupid bloat.
Anyways if you remove /system/etc/CDROM.ISO then it will just mount your SD-CARD instead. Does anyone know a fix to this?
Found a fix for it after digging around the forums some more.

Thanks INTREPID-NY
Code:
This has been reported to work as well:
Dial ##7764726
Hit Call
Type Password 000000 (that's 6 zeros)
Hit Feature Settings
Choose CD ROM
Click Disable
Hit menu, commit modifications (it will say no item changed)
Also the CDROM.iso file seems like it still needs to be there, like if you delete it then it will still mount the SD-Card. So don't remove the file and do what is quoted above.
Wish I had read this before I had to wipe my card and rewrite everything I work for vzw and hate all the extra crap

I was wondering about that cd-drive, though I never got any prompts. Worked perfectly, sweet. Thanks.
Weird I did this and now my SD Card still mounts by itself... Anything else that can cause this? I am using just a stock deodexed rom of the last OTA. When I choose charge only, it will mount the SD-Card on my PC.
I have this same problem.
stock 2.2 ota, 1 click root, and the ##764 thing to stop the annoying pop up... for a few months everything worked great, no pop up, no mounting, it was sweet, just charging.
now all of a sudden it mounts my sd only all the time so i cannot
1. charge my phone usb to my work computer while listening to music on sd card
2. charge my phoen in the car while listening to music on sd card
so pretty much just lost music listening capabilities.
wtf
When I attempt to call that string of digits my phone stops responding until I hit the back button or the home key. I get no further.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
Thanks for the fix, worked great for me!

I've got the same problem, running "Stock+ 3.01" ROM. I thought I might have frozen something important with Titanium Backup. If I figure it out, I'll repost here.
Hi!
I bought a used HTC Desire. The person selling it had rooted the phone, installed a new ROM (miui, as far as I can tell, since there's at least the miui camera. He said he had wanted an ICS rom) and the phone is using the SD card for increasing its memory. Titanium Backup, LauncherPro, AC!D SoundMOD, Dolby Mobile, ES File Explorer, Firewall, Fancy Widgets, Pimp My Rom, QuickPic, SuperSU, two instances of Superuser, Task Manager and Theme Manager have been installed. LauncherPRO is used as the "desktop environment".
Some things from the "About Phone" dialogue:
Model number: HTC Desire
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Kernel version: 2.6.38.8-cayniarb-ics-stock-022612-00844-ge004de8
Build number marius.a v.2.5(Temporary version)
The problem is, reboots keep causing programs to disappear or get corrupt. There are several ways in which this happens:
* Some programs launch, but don't show anything. For example Firefox ends up showing only a white screen with some basic OS-wide UI elements visible.
* Most programs simply say "Unfortunately, <programname> has stopped", where <programname> of course varies according to program.
* Some programs launch for a while, but fall to the "unfortunately, <foo> has stopped" after a second or a minute.
* Some programs completely disappear, leaving at best a picture of a green robot on the home screen. Touching the picture with my finger, I get: "Could not launch the requested activity."
* There is one program still working flawlessly: Andropas, a PT route planner for my city and Maverick, a GPS/maps program.
Also the Play store is now broken, although it survived many earlier program mass deaths.
I've fixed Firefox several times by uninstalling it using ES File Explorer and then digging it from the Downloads folder (I've installed a beta from an .apk file) and installing it again.
A reboot doesn't always break programs: My previous two reboots left FF intact. I once rebooted choosing Reboot from the menu you get by pulling the panel on the upper side of the screen downwards and then choosing TOGGLES and once choosing Shutdown from the same menu, waiting for the phone to shut down and then starting it again.
I am therefore not completely sure if the problem is reboot-related, but it has by now only appeared when I've rebooted my phone.
For adjusting yourself: This is my first Android phone, but I would call myself generally tech savvy and am able to grasp new OSes very quickly. A power user for sure, but not a developer on any platform whatsoever.
So... Any idea of what I should fix in order to get the phone functioning correctly?
If I have to go for installing another ROM, is there something about using the SD Card as memory extension that I should take into account in order not to brick my phone?
You have an old version of the Marius.a ICS Rom, and it has bugs. You should flash the newest one.
If that doesn't solve it, then repartition your sd-card. Check the guide in my sig.

You can use recovery installable zip: http://dualhoki.vim.hu/bubor/dev/swap-internalsd-externelsd.zip
gyroscope fix
power off the phone (better remove battery for sure), put on a desk, power on and wait, it shoud calibrate itself.
Fix skype audio
Read this. It will break your call sound, Incoming calls work fine with ring tone on.
Slow io performance
type as root:
echo 0 >/sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_enabled
You can place in /system/etc/init.d/S99fsync file this code, chmod 775 /system/etc/init.d/S99fsync , Settings will persist, until reinstall the rom.
Its disable fsync, what makes it faster, but you would lost date on crash. Internal sd card was 1.2M/sec, after 6.2M/sec removed in 20131109

Read first post, BT call doesnt work, but mp3 playing with headset works.
well, sorry I really don't know how did I skept this
SIM not detected, but I can make calls and send and recive SMS
edit
No service, insert SIM and reboot
I noticed that the Phone app as well as Local and Navigation apps aren't available. I'm re-downloading the zip and will do a fresh reinstall. Steps I took to upgrade from CM10.1.2:
Using CWM
1) Copy CM10.2 zip to sdcard
2) Backup
3) Wipe data/factory reset
4) Wipe dalvik cache
5) Install CM10.2 from zip
6) Restore data (advanced restore -> restore data)
7) Reboot
All user installed apps were upgraded upon first boot. And they seem to work fine. Even Gmail and Maps works. I can receive calls, and I can make calls from the People app. But when I tap on the Phone app, a message states that the app is not installed. In addition, there is no Local or Navigation app in my app list.
Using CWM
1) Copy CM10.2 zip to sdcard
2) Wipe data/factory reset
3) Wipe dalvik cache
4) advanced/ wipe davlin cache
5) formar sistem
6) instal from sd card
7) reboot
Calls work well for me

you should try without restore data just pure install.

Ok I'll try that tonight. Thanks. Last night I tried several times and each time I had the same result. I finally just did a complete wipe and restore of all from the backup I had made prior to trying the 10.2 upgrade.

Facelock is absent
Hello.
I'm did clean installation of this ROM and found that Facelock option in screen lock dialog is absent. Is there any way to add it? Can Gapps installation fix this issue?
And is there any way to speed up PicSphere rendering? It takes over 30 minutes for full sphere (64 photos).
Thank You.

Thanks scotte9999! I thought I had checked the all apps list (app drawer) and couldn't find the phone app but I'm going to do the upgrade again and check it out.
Hey bubor, sorry I could not make a reply back "in time" in the other thread, this 2 weeks were crazy for me; I think that the request for logcat from the first build of cm10.2 is now moot. Focal works, wifi works, I have been rocking it with your build (again, dirty flashed 20130828 i live dangeourly but with my backups on the sdcard).
- Feels Barry White smooth.
- Total commander now only sees the internal SDcard by default, I can still access it manually, but it is not "mounting" in the first screen the /mnt/sdcard1 I'm currently trying to google if this is a total commander issue or related to jb 4.3 or cm 10.2. I cant even find a workaround to manually add it, yet. Anyone else using TC and is now missing the external sd in the main screen?
- Made and receive phone calls as usual, used BT for music with my headset, used the in-ear wired too (the original ones). (also I never could figure out what the button on the mic does other than it is context based),
Overall, the things I use and do with it, so far they work great.
Awesome! I thought my glide would be stuck at Android 4.2, thanks for working on this!
I'll be trying this firmware out as soon as possible.

Have you tried to use the bluetooth to transfer files? Like mp3s from the Captivate Glide to another device?

Just one file, that same wednesday, I was at a new client's, I shared him an apk via BT (because the wifi was down) to a Samsung Galaxy Note, no problems at all. Have you had problems with BT file transfer?

No, I ask because I'm planning a trip to Mexico and I need a SIM phone. I already have the Gravity 2 unlocked, but I've always been fascinated with this phone as well as the Galaxy Relay 4G. The Captivate Glide is turning into the little engine that could so I'm keeping an eye on any progress made on the ROM front for this phone.
Or for another $100 I could get a Galaxy S4 I9505 clone and just buy a bluetooth keyboard, but...kinda don't want to go that route (I'd rather get a REAL I9505). Plus the Glide is fairly cheap, under $200 at NewEgg. Its the discontinued phone that...continues.
Hello,
I have had my HTC One M8 for a while now but I wasn't really happy with the soundquality while playing through my headphones, so I looked for ways to improve it. I found a few methods and finally decided to give it a try. These methods require a root so yesterday I have rooted my phone for the first time. Unfortunately I am experiencing some problems now.
The rooting process went without too much trouble. I used hasoon2000's toolkit and have TWRP version 2.7.0.2 installed as recovery and used it to install the provided SuperSU, which didn't work at first. On the forums I found a newer version and installed that one, updated it and got it to work.
Now this is where I think I messed up: I read somewhere that when rooted, you are able to delete pre-installed apps from the phone. I downloaded SD maid and deleted Kid Mode, Zoe and 7digital. When I deleted Kid Mode I got an error saying it has crashed. I tapped away the error but from this point I couldn't go back to my homescreen anymore because my launcher kept crashing (com.htc.launcher crashed). I rebooted the phone and the launcher worked again, but the phone still seemed to be buggy.
After this I tried to install the snapdragon audio+ (this was my first choice for an equalizer). I downloaded the apk and moved it to the system folder using ES file manager. I installed but when I tried to use it (through settings in google play music app) my phone would crash. I uninstalled it and tried again, but when I tried to move the apk to the system map like before, my phone would crash everytime. I then found out the file I used doesn't work for lollipop so I figured that's what caused the crashes.
My next move was to try and install viper4android. I downloaded it from the Play Store and opened it. It told me it needed an installation of BusyBox so I downloaded that too. But when I opened the BusyBox app and clicked install my phone would crash again. After some searching I found that the HTC One M8 requires BusyBox to be flashed manually so I downloaded the file but when I tried to load it onto my phone I noticed this wasn't possible anymore.
Now when I connect my phone to my PC the PC recognizes it, but when I open the map in Windows Explorer it only shows three maps; .showme, _nero_sync and Ringtones. I know there should be more as they were there before. It also shows my phone's capacity as a total of 10GB (shouldn't this be 16GB?). Also when I try to connect it with Sync Manager it gives me an error everytime I reconnect the phone; Device unavailable. Please reconnect your device [4].
I have tried to reset the phone through settings, wipe with TWRP and fix permissions with TWRP. I also tried reinstalling Sync Manager and the drivers on my PC. What I'm thinking now is I maybe have done something wrong in the ES file explorer that would make the folders unaccessible.
My phone is running stock android 5.0.1 and my PC Windows 7 64-bit.
I hope someone can help me, Thanks.
P.S: Sorry for the long post, I figured I'd give as much info as possible.
@Steef076 First update recovery to the latest one (2.8.6.0)
Second if you go and delete vital or integrated parts of the stock rom you will get a lot of bugs. Third, viper4android requires to write system and you can't write system with the stock kernel, you need an unsecured kernel or unsecure it yourself.
10GB is right since 6 is eaten by android. At this point I would just revert to a backup or install any custom rom around here. Most are close to stock and with no bloatware and come with root. You can even clean them further using a tool called ROM Cleaner. It will most likely solve all your problems
Did the deleted system apps reappear after reboot, or do they remain "uninstalled"? If the system is write protected like TempestZ states, any deleted system apps should reappear after a reboot.
Revert your nandroid to restore the system apps. And you didn't make a nandroid, you really should before making any system modifications for the very reason that it allows you to revert if you run into problems.
Another good practice, is if you don't know what effect deleting a system app will have (such as "safe to delete" lists that can sometimes be found on XDA) you should first freeze the app with Titanium Backup. If freezing doesn't cause any issues, then go ahead and delete. If you do have issues, just unfreeze the app.

No, Windows will never show 16 GB. It only shows "internal storage" partition, or the user accessible portion of the storage. A good chunk is reserved for the OS.
Does what is shown in Windows differ from what is shown in ES if you browse to internal storage?
Thanks for the replies. @TempestZ @redpoint73
First of all I managed to update twrp to 2.8.6.0 using adb/fastboot.
To answer your question @redpoint73 the system apps I had deleted indeed reappeared after reboot. Also I didn't make a nandroid before I deleted the files, as I did not even know this was possible. Now I have made a nandroid of my stock ROM that is working decently, except for the TV app keeps crashing (I'm not opening it) and the connection to the PC is not working properly (not sure if this is ROM based?). I have noticed when the phone is in recovery I CAN see the folders through windows explorer. HTC sync manager still doesn't find it though. I am working on finding a proper stock ROM or maybe flash a custom one to see if that will fix it.
I understand now that the OS is taking up the storage space. The space windows is showing is the same as ES file manager so I guess this is fine.
HTC Sync is a hot mess. It often causes more troubles than it solves.
One thing you can try (to see if it fixes the USB connectivity) is uninstall HTC Sync and all HTC drivers. Than connect the phone. Don't let it install HTC Sync. Go to Windows Device Manager, find the device. Then pick the option to manually select the drivers, and pick the generic "Android MTP device" (or something to that effect) drivers.
This doesn't work for everyone. But it worked for me to be able to "see" the internal storage of my M8 on my home PC (Win 7). Annoyingly, it seems to vary from one PC to another. My work laptop (also Win 7) works fine with HTC Sync.

So if I understand correctly, 'version-main' is the same as 'firmware' and 'software number' (found in settings)? If so, my current firmware seems to be 4.19.114.2.
Now, what you're saying is I should do an OTA but this isn't possible because I have a custom recovery right?
Also, when I want to flash stock rom and stock recovery or do a nand don't I need the files that fit my cidnum? How would your file work for me?

If yours already on 4.19.114.2 then no need to do OTA as that the latest.
and my backup will bring back your device back to stock as you first bought it when restore with a full wipe.
Try to solve your problem first, only when you really need the backup then only I will upload ... let me know

Hello, sorry for the late reply.
I have decided to give a custom ROM a try. I now have ARHD 41.0 installed and it seems this took care of my problems. All the maps are showing in windows explorer and HTC sync manager is connecting properly with my phone again. Also no more crashing apps. Your backup would still be of much use for me as I am not sure I want to stick with a custom ROM and therefore would like to have a stock ROM backup.
Thanks in advance.
