is there anyway to go back to 1.13.516 software? after the update ive been having bluetooth issues....seen here.
after the update i have a major problem......bluetooth resets the wireless radio.......whenever bluetooth is on my radio bars go to a red X then starts back up. The bluetooth also resets......it will do this about every 45 seconds if the bluetootb stays on......anyone else having this problem?.....btw this just started after the update BTW, ive done 3 hard reset hoping that was the issue but it wasnt....verizon CC suggests taking it to a retail store but i had going in there.....any suggestions
Doing a factory should do that as it should reset it to factor rom stored in bootloader. Then ignore the update.
However keep in mind they claim that the update helps fix the screen flicker issues.

ive gone 3 hard resets and it does not put it back to the original rom
Only way to do this is to wait for someone to post it, so far I have not been able to locate it, but eventually (hopefully soon enough) someone will post it.
You might try and go into recovery and do a factory reset from there, I was having some other troubles and found that doing it that way helped tremendously.

Yea i've done a factory wipe....didn't help
I need to do this too. I've only had my X for a short 12 hours, but this update has really hosed things up. I've notice:
- wireless causes imstability: (random reboots,slow response times, system and phone not responding to anything)
- connectivity issues: even in 3G areas web and market fail and need to be restarted. With 1x connectivity txt messages wont go through.
- general instability: screen unresponsive or buttons on screen looking as if they're presses but nothing happens. Cannot wake phone from standby.

So,i found that it was the exchange sync that was really hurting everything. I changed from push sync to every 15 min. I haven't tried wifi yet. But my battery life and overall speed have improved significantly.

Hello everyone, last 06/22 I bought 2 Captivates on ebay, rootted and upgraded to Froyo (I897UCKB1).
About a week later one of the devices was sitting in my desk by my side, went out of the blue it lighted up the screen and activated the DeskHome app, when I closed the app the homecreen was stuck in landscape mode.
After much writting to the seller and browsing the web, I reflashed the device, went to stock Android 2.1, connected the devices to Mini Kies, updated firmware back to Android 2.2 (I897UCKB1), everything seemed fine but the next morning the issue was back.
Then I rooted the device and with Titanium Banckup, uninstalled all AT&T apps, yet about 4, maybe 5 hours later, the homescreen again set itself in landscape mode. Calibrating the device doesn't help.
Anyone knows how to fix this?
The other devices works perfectly.
In case you think its relevant, I live in Venezuela and my mobile company is Telefonica Movistar.
Thanks.

Try a custum rom first , to see if this issue is still present .You can try mine , look at my sig .
you could also tilt the phone up
nah, but you could also try the KF1 gingerbread. IF your ready to read.
I just had the same issue. I uninstalled desk home as it kept activating on screen lock. I found that alone didn't fix the issue. I then rebooted my phone with my headphones plugged in hoping to take the phone out of its perma docked mode and it worked; I'm not stuck in landscape mode anymore. I think the root cause is DeskHome.

I had the same issue recently and no matter what i tried (going back to stock, or a custom rom) nothing seemed to work. Then I noticed that even though i was wiping the cache and user data there was still data and settings left over from previous roms. I had tried to recalibrate the horizontal but it didn't seem to want to calibrate. I used one of the stock roms that gave me the option to master clear wiped everything then went to stock and then to a custom rom. After that the recalibration worked and I was able to calbrate it and get it to work properly.
I would try to calibrate it and see if that functions properly. If as in my case when it is perfectly level it will not calibrate that could be your issue.
Please post in Q&A.

Please don't post the same question in multiple threads - it's a borderline spam maneuver, and not a good way to get the ball rolling on getting help.
Yes you can upgrade from to Gingerbread - if you're still on 2.2, just look for a Gingerbread rom you like, and most of them will post instructions on how to make the jump to Gingerbread.
If you still can't find out how to get there, look for something called the Heimdall one-click to stock UCKH3. That will get you there.

EDIT: No idea how this was posted in the Accessories forum, I selected General when I posted. Mods please move this. My apologies.
I recently received an LG Esteem (yes, I know it's not the Revolution, but the phones are nearly identical). I tried to tether using the Internet Connection USB mode to my computer. It then went to a screen with the LG logo up top and a static sync logo followed by the text "Download is in progress. Do not disconnect cable."
It has been on this screen for an hour and a half now, and I am just not sure it's supposed to do this. Does anyone know what the issue could be? (No attempts at rooting or custom ROM's, all is bone stock). Any help is greatly appreciated!
That is download mode. Not sure why it went into it. If it does not reboot then it is bricked and can only be recovered using LGNPST, and considering they have not released the files for it I would try to get warranty.

ok so i got my htc one a couple of days ago and it sees to have a serious problem!
Basically the phone goes through stages of random vibrating every few mins to full on constant vibrating like there is a fan or motor buzzing in there. It even does it if the phone is switched off! Ive just had an episode of it vibrating no stop for 10 mins, didnt make a difference when i switched it off or when i factory reset it!
It seems to overheat or something and only stopped doing it after i had just left it for a while. I have tried to speak with htc about it but they were useless and had no suggestions what soever.
I really need some help here, i bought the phone privately and to all intense purposes it seemed like brand new

SO you CAN NOT exchange the phone?
if not... root your phone and flash different rom that should resolve problem...at least give it a try!

No cant exchange it, only option i might have if i cant get the problem ressolved on here would be to send it to htc for repair but can take up to 2 weeks.
when i got the phone it was still on 4.1 and told me update available to 4.2 so i did that. Thats all i have done , apart from unlocking it from 02 using a code.
its almost like on a computer when its being worked hard etc that you here the fan cut in, thats what it seems like except it sounds like the buzz you get when you first start the phone. sometimes it does this just once every few mins or so, other times it will start doing it and not stop...even when switched off.....everything else on the phone seems to work fine

Did the device get wet at some point? Sounds like a hardware problem if a factory reset didn't solve the problem.
There's a slight chance it could be a real bad app or an issue with the rom. Maybe running a stock RUU for your device if you can find it might help.
Pretty sure it hasent got wet .
Would be happy to put stock Rom back on it but not sure how I go about reflashing it .
Don't know if this normal or not but when I did a factory reset I thought the device would be wiped completely, all my pictures and videos etc however when I set it back up again I found some videos on there still that I had downloaded to the phone off the net.
Maybe it's not wiping itself correctly either?

Resetting the device should wipe everything and bring it to the same condition as new.
Go to settings>>Backup & Reset>>Reset phone>>now check "Erase all data", then tap "OK".
If that doesn't work, try to do a factory reset from the bootloader.

Factory reset will wipe the device but leave the contents of the sdcard untouched which explains why your vids are still there
Appreciate the help guys, thankyou
So, is there any benifit to wiping the device completely over and above what I've done allready?
Today the phone has just done the odd sudden vibration as if you were just booting up, around 5 times in total, nowhere near as bad as last night, don't know why that would be.
Would it be possible to reflash standard firmware?
Is so how would I do it. Phone is completley standard and was in 4.1 prior to the ota update to 4.2, could 4.2 be the problem?

IC, but you do have the option to erase the sdcard (storage) from the reset phone menu in settings.

Yes, I see there is a box to tick to wipe everything.
Think it's worth doing?

I'd try it. You can back up your pics and music on your PC via HTC Sync first.
Ok so I have tried it but no joy
Still getting the random buzzing/vibration for no apparent reason.
Could it be a bug with the update to 4.2.2?
Can I go back to 4.1?
I'm at my witts end with this now

Don't think it's a bug with 4.2.2 but a hardware issue.
Couple of other things to try ; download "CID Getter" from the play store, run it and find out your device's CID number. Now search on Google or xda for the RUU for your device's CID number. Download the RUU.exe to your pc, connect your phone to the pc and run the RUU.exe. This will bring the phone back to stock 4.1..
Or you can unlock the bootloader and flash another rom. Step by step instructions can be found on xda
Sorry, don't know of any easy solutions.

I have just followed a a video on here on how to unlock the bootloader and s-off and root - so now good to go
not sure how i put a new firmware on here now though..going to have to do a bit more reading....
i think to start with ill try downloading standard htc 4.1 rom when i can figure out which one it is and how i put it on and then go from there.
ok so just to update this....
last night i have tried the standard google edition rom on my phone and for the first few hours all seemed fine untill 4am this morning when i was woked by the phone doing its random vibrating thing...it was just sat by the side of my bed on charge

You tried everything so it's has to be a hardware issue. Maybe the vibration starts when the device gets warm. Sorry we couldn't fix it.

My HTC one has been doing the same thing. Vibrating randomly even when powered down. Brought it back to Sprint and had them order me a new phone. The only way to stop it from vibrating when powered down was to bang it on a hard surface, then it would stop. Crazy!
Vibrating non stop
My HTC One had been vibrating cotinuously too. I kept slapping the upper part of the phone to stop it from vibrating. However, this worked for the initial few days only. Later, it continued to vibrate continuously without stopping at all ! In the night I left the phone in the other room while it was still vibrating and the next morning the phone wouldn't charge at all! Now the phone is not booting/ charging. It is dead! Any leads?
EDIT: I slapped the upper part again, it suddenly woke up from the dead! It is charging now, the LED is red too!! But it is still continuously vibrating. I have left it to charge as of now, but please help with this vibrating problem. Any ideas?
I've had the same issue with my M7 today.
There were no software updates or any new apps lately.
It all emerged when i was pressing the home button (to exit from some app) and at the same time an incomming call started.
I have tried:
switching it off - did not help
Changing volume setting silent\vibe\sound a couple of times - no effect
Soft reset - no help
Hard reset - no help
Slapping with upper side of the phone against my had - helped for some time, the it started again
Seems like hardware issue.
Currently working solution for me:
Switch off the option "Vibrate on keypress" in Settings ==> Sound & notification
UPD: had to turn off all the vibrations
So far so good. Apparently there is some issue with vibe motor, and it just does not stop. I assume that by disabling that option it is not getting started and thus no constant vibe follows.
UPD 2 Fixed:
Issue reoccurred on hitting the device against my palm.
Had to disassemble it, there are a couple of instructions on youtube, i used plastic cards.
Motor was spinning even with a switched off device. Had to unplug and plug the motor a couple of times and it helped.
Turned on all vibrations in settings, no issues so far.
Hope that helps.
