No mate sorry but sounds really strange to me... if it happened to any of the girls i know since they're all technologically impaired i would guess its of their own doing, for example installing and accepting **** they don't bother checking... maybe your girl is different i don't know anyways im using Sultanxda's rom and im very pleased with it ( especially speed-wise ) check it out.

thanks.i might try viper first then maybe the rom u recommend.

Try to ask Viper's developers. They can recognize problem and try to find a solution...

I installed viper and the weird black lines resembling a smurf or weird cartoon character is still there.
I even reinstalled the pgm58 3.33 firmware and it's still there.
I suspect the lcd is going and soon there will be more lines.(black lines on white screen--colored pics hide the lines)
a new lcd assembly is between 30-40 bucks so I may order one if things get worse.
p.s. I tried some of the stuck pixel apps on g-play and no dice...

Technical or Software problem

Hey,
I have had a vox for over half a year now and I was using the new OS from HTC.
Recently I had to reflash my phone because it was having a number of issues. The enter key on the front keypad would not work. It would handomly turn the bluetooth on. The screen would not be bright while I was using it (the standy dim lighting).
The enter key on the slide out keyboard does work.
After the reflash everything worked great. Now I have used the phone for a week and this starts happening again. Sometimes restarting will get rid of these problems, but it still seems to be there.
I tried to update to Dr. Gonzo's 6.1 ROM, but I was unable to flash that one, I got an error saying the ROM is corrupt.
Do you think this may be a hardware problem?
Please let me know what you think,
Thanks,
GRoder
which ROM are you currently using?
Did you USPL the device before flashing WM6.1 ROM?
that is a necessary step.
Let us know after you flash doc's ROM.

hey hey, I did read both of the supplied read me files, however I'm sure sure that the updates UPL/SPL updates worked correctly. There is one step that I am unsure about.

yea I always use the search function in forums, why ask what 10 others have asked before.
I'm just curious if anyone has experienced a similar problem with their phone. I'm hoping this is not a hardware issue...
Nope, this is something for which people are opening a new threat every day, so I hope you can understand that I am a bit grumpy sometimes!

I will try it again tonight when I get home. I think it was the step where I had to run the *.bat file with all the promts...at the end the phone did not behave like it said in the read me so I think something may have gone wrong at that point.

Bamboozling SMS Issue...

I've struggled with this issue for days now... Maybe somebody can help.
I'm dropping most of my text messages. I can successfully send them, but I do not receive them.
I figured it was a problem with SuperbadCM 1.5, because the problem seemed to begin after I updated to 1.5. I've tried downgrading, flashing after a wipe, removing LauncherPro (memory issues?)... nothing fixed it. Then I tried the latest CM5.0.8t2 on a clean wipe, no good, and even flashed an old nandroid of King's 1.5 sense rom... still no message.
What could be the issue? AFAIK everything else works.
I doubt it matters, but I'm using a G1 latest radio and dangerspl. I'm not sure if a logcat of this is possible, but I'll provide whatever info necessary. Thanks for your help. Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
if you know what rom it is from would it not make more sense to post in that rom thread and or use SEARCH to find if others witht he same rom are having the same issues and know of a fix....
have you tried a different rom? maybe an eclair 2.1 perhaps??
I've had the very same issue on DangerSPL. I'd recommend using Firerat's AnySPL Patch on Cyan's mod while using stock/Hard/Engineering SPLs.

makes sense, because the issue probably lies on a lower level than the rom. I'll try this now, thank you.
I flashed HardSPL over 2.22.23.02, then Firerat's AnySPL CM5.0.8t1. I'm still not getting text messages... Any other ideas? This is a pretty serious issue for me :/ what's most confusing is the problem occurred months after it was working fine.
If the problems still occurs, you may want to contact your service provider about this problem.

What country are you in? I'll bet its the hsxpa and gprs class settings.
Also, you pretty much answered your own question in the first post, it happened after you went to a specific ROM, there's something wrong with it's settings.
It's all right. There was a time when the opposite-sex didn't want to text me back either!
Mmm. Mommys making me ribs! Anyone want some?
And HEY! Just because most of my posts are pointless, doesn't mean you can flame me!
But ehh. I'm on SuperBad and don't have this problem... hmm?

But I got the problem sorted out... Proto was right, apparently I had a bad sim card somehow and got it swapped out. It wasn't the spl or any rom.

Did you try handcent sms? It has a workaround to an android bug that leads to sms loss when there's not enough memory available.
Yup. Baby steps. Last time this happened to me it was a network issue in my area and just had to wait it out. Any time I'm having SMS issues, I always call to see if the network is jacked up before heading another direction.
Did you not get a notification of a bad SIM? I thought these phones would have been able to detect a bad SIM... At any rate, I'm glad you got it fixed up.

Keyboard and onscreen button lights not working

I was running MIUI for a couple of weeks with no problem, a couple of days ago the lights on the keyboard and the circular buttons on the phone quit working. I didn't really think much about it, just figured it was a theme I applied just didn't agree with my phone. I tried restoring a nand of MIUI and still no lights. So yesterday I flashed mikshift ROM and still no dice. I'm now running the leak from yesterday and still none of my lights are working. I really don't want to run the ruu and go to sprint unless I absolutely have to.. any ides?

Excuse my ignorance but how would I remove the hboot and recovery without unzipping the file?
Edit: Never mind.. dumb question. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a shot when I have a little free time today.
I have had the same problem using several roms. One fix that worked for me was to disable auto-brightness, reboot, enable auto-bright, reboot again with my finger covering the sensor & both keyboard+onscreen lights work again. Try it if you haven't already.

Hey it's not my fault this app adds in a stupid signature ;-)
I can manually remove it but then I have to push more buttons.
CM nightly builds have a lot of issues but Sense roms are a big no-no for privacy reasons. Look at the logs and see for yourself what the damn OS is doing in the background. Sprint & Google don't need to broadcast audio from my phone everytime I take a crap and the cops already get informed when you go over 65mph on the freeway anyways. Have you seen the secret Sprint web app that law enforcement uses on people? I have.

Well it looks like I'm not going to be able to do this until later tonight or tomorrow. Just a question, why is the file size in your link so much smaller than the one in the original thread??
It should be the same file since I've used it before. I will do an MD5 check and reupload if it's a mismatch. Does anyone have the MD5 sum of the original? If so pls post it. Thanks
EDIT:
Here is the updated link: http://web2.google-it.info/PG06IMG-backup.zip
MD5 Checksum: b213b282889e173f53b3a871a4941ffd
Again someone please confirm the checksum. Sorry about the broken link.
Well ran the one "zip" back to stock and still no lights.. Not real sure what the issue is. I have noticed over the past 24 hours that the lights on the keyboard will randomly work but it's not consistent. Guess I'll be heading to Sprint at some point.
How i fix the keyboard lights
This is how i fix the lights on my keyboard, the home and and menu buttons those still dont know how. First you go to settings>display>check automatic brightness>go to system update>update profile> turn off screen (on/off button), this is the important part! unlock your cell phone using the keyboard. Dont press on/off button then slide the keyboard for some random reason that doesnt work, just slide the keyboard on landscape mode then the light of the keyboard should work i think. Hope this work for someone else too.

no touchscreen after ics. lg p920 version "not for sale"

A friend of mine gave me a lg p920 version not for sale. I was able to upgrade to ICS, but after updating the touchscreen does not work anymore. I ordered a new touchscreen, but it does not work. So the problem is in the bootloader. I used fastboot option EMU software version 1.25. Definitely missing the display driver. Does anyone know how to do?

I am not sure but I think the part in Slavik language about making the special cable has something to do with touch screen. I have never understood why the special cable is necessary but I know it has to do with touch screen, and that thread has been around a while, since O3D first was released. You would just have to try making one and see if it works.

Yeah I remember you. "Yes to everything." The thing is, asking here is going to do nothing for you. If you don't take action and try things for yourself, then nothing is going to work for you.

Well back a few months ago my thread was very busy with a lot of guys saying 'I have tried everything and done everything exactly and nothing works.' Usually it was because they were not reading and following directions carefully. It became irritating and I almost did not want to help anyone :banghead:... So I made the mistake of lumping you in with those guys.
Anyway, apologies and I am happy you succeeded
I am always amazed by the tenacity of our little 'club' here; I would have never thought of the battery. Heck, I did not know there is one.

Installing a theme causes a bunch of lag during the install process itself (under the covers there are like 20 apks getting installed). I've always applied themes right after installing them, so any for any lag after that it's hard to say if it's left over from the install or is from the application. In any case, after a reboot I haven't noticed any lag.
