Android help...

How can I see a list of installed programs (and potentially remove them) even those in the ROM?
I installed that SD Mount fix application, but I see no icon for it, and it doesn't seem to work... I did power down my phone and restart it.
Task manager? Is there one without installing it? I know there is one that's suppose to be bound to a hardware key, but we can't get to it...
Sorry I'm a noob... any good sites for learning about android?

I found in Settings the app list...
But still, SD Share is installed but I have no icon for it anywhere that I can find. Can anyone help?

Where is that? lol, totally new to android...
Found it, added it. Clicked on it. Reconnected, waited. Still no damn accessible drive on my PC... Is Windows 7 causing the issue? Maybe the face I installed the Google USB v3 driver?

Spoke too soon, it finally showed up... Thanks... I'm retarded.

haha automount is floating around here somewhere. i prefer that. does what it says. and yeah it usually takes a minute for the sdcard to show up. im on windows7 aswell

Hi everyone, still having some issues. I hope you can help...
First of all, I seem to be stuck in airplane mode. WHen I got to settings wireless controls it's not checked, but long hold down the red key shows it's on. I have no airplane mode icon in the top portion of my screen.
Secondly, and this is how it got started, the Facebook application wouldn't upload a picture... it went to 80% the first time I tried it, then I killed it, and tried again and never got passed 0%. It was at this point I decided to try to turn off and back on the data and got stuck in the mode I'm in...
Should I upgrade to 3.42.50 radio, I'm on .30. Using Alltel phone on VZW network...

Using the ROMUpdateUtility... I said f'it though and flashed the Bell ROM that had it included, didn't let customizations run then flashed back to Android...
I really can't decide between the two common resolutions... Does everything work correctly in the lower one, maybe a bit of clipping and it's clearer? Hard to decide...

your internet probably wont work in android cause you have to let it provision in wm first. 240x320 looks crystal clear but nothing fits right. 320x480 is a tad fuzzy but its not that bad. plus everything fits right. 320x428 is right in the middle. its pretty clear but most of the stuff fit. i use 320x480 cause i cant stand the fact that nothing fits in the other resolutions

My internet is working fine...I'm curious if I'm getting RevA EVDO though, it seems a bit slower than it was in WinMo...

Do I need to setup an APN? I noticed the two listed are TMobile and Tellus... Maybe this would speed up my internet? Anyone know?
My Windows Mobile was setup on alltel... [email protected] or whatever...
I tried to Google Alltel APN setup and came up blank...

Hello, after doing more research, I read that CDMA carriers don't require APN settings. Is this true? Should I just delete out all the APNs in the Settings on my Touch (Alltel/Verizon)?
Also, can someone tell me about the network operators screen? Do I ever need to use it. When I go into it, it says 'Searching...' but never completes. I have to back out.

Mount issue

Hey peeps, My hero has been acting up for the last couple days and the weird thing about it is that I have not done anything new to it. I wanted to flash the new fresh rom and when I connected the phone via usb to my laptop it just charges. The phone does not get recognized by the laptop nor does it ask me if I want to mount the drive. I am running windows 7 and the phone would mount without a problem previously. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

If you want to browse your sdcard then pull down the notification bar and select charge only. It will then let you then mount the card and there should be an option at the bottom to always do it or not. Unchecked it.
. It sounds like charge only is set to default. If you are using adb then you have to have it set to charge only.

I wish that was the issue its set to ask me what I want to do which is charge only, htc sync, mount disk drive, or internet sharing. The problem is when I pull down the notification bar there is nothing there only my task panel. It use to ask me to pick an option. Now all of a sudden it doesn't.

What in the Hell is going on here?

lol. That my hero isnt recognized by any pc in my house. It only chrages when connected through the usb cable to a pc. I have tried numerous cables to no avail. I do not have a clue of what can be going on with it. This just happened from one day to another.

Yes, but why two threads about it? We gave you answers in the other thread. If they didn't work, that's fine. Come back and ask again... but do it in the same thread.
Now... did those things not work? What did you try? How did you go about it? Help us help you...

oh ok im sorry about that. this one should be closed. again i am sorry.

No worries. My rule of thumb, by the way, is to put my questions where I think they go and then let the mode move them if they so desire.

[Q] My Phone Is Not Detected By Computer

usb cable
i have also tried many new usb cables... sorry i forgot to mention that.

Can you try a different computer? Trying to identify if it's a computer problem or a phone problem.

i dotn really have the option of using another computer... i think it is the computer but i am not sure.

Plug another device into the computer. 1 that is known to work. If that does not work you will need to uninstall your usb drivers and reinstall them with no devices attached.
For more information google hardware manager usb.
If this doesn't solve your issue it would either b a virus or hardware failure. If your phone charges fine I seriously doubt it is your phone that is the problem.
I almost forgot. The android usb drivers have been updated since the last release of windows. I would look into this as well.

Make sure you have compatible and up-to-date USB Drivers. Another thing, make sure you have HTC Sync installed.
Check the permissions on the computer with USB Ports.

The phone might be bad. I had this problem and Sprint replaced the phone

Same problem here... my wife's hero is recognized with same USB cable and same computer ... but mine wont recognize ... it started doing this after I flashed to a sense rom to update prl ... could that have screwed it up?

ok so i have tried everything listed above except replacing the driver with newer ones because i cant even get it to show up in device manager... i have uninstalled and reinstalled sync multiple times... i plugged in my friend evo and it was recognized immediately. so im guessing its the phone. not sure if sprint will replace my phone as i dont have insurance.. also i need to just re.stock my phone then im guessing... gotta figure out how to do that.

You need to go to the 'device tree' in device manager this is the default and only view on windows xp. You are looking for usb root port or .... well hold on ill find it. Im assuming vista here?
It doesn't say it in the article but from my experience sometimes it can be selective about which devices it will allow to connect.
Unplug your device now.
Removing the drivers and re-installing them erases all the current configurations. Yes your computer remembers everything you have ever plugged into those ports until this point ↓
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817900
I hope you remember to google for the latest android usb driver before you plug it back in!
If you didn't just go through the steps again at the microsoft site. Reopen the new drivers From android project Then plug your device in. Keep me posted.
Oh and you cant 'Revert your phone to stock' unless you made a backup of the stock rom before you flashed it. Well you could also have another copy of the same phone lying around... And even then when they send the device to hardware quality labs they're forensic equipment will tell that the locks have been snapped. Your phone might come back with a bill.
↑ Things of this nature are usually against customer service policies but in today's economy nothing would surprise me.
I hope you're not panicking! If you couldn't tell I have run into this problem more than once over the years, so the odds that your phone is jacked up are slim to none £

you can always just download the stock rom from sprint for and update cant u? at this point i might as well insure it then have it get "stolen" just to get a new phone.

Lol. No comment ;D

You can always try the android drivers in my post on how to install adb. Its in the hero dev section. I made that thread because some users were having trouble installing the htc drivers. As usual I'm mobile so I can't link you but you should find it no problem. Hope it helps good luck
Yea it's me again with the
" Modified Hero"

Yes you can revert your phone to stock, don't worry. Just download the RUU from Sprint or HTC's website and run it with your phone plugged in. If you ever can get it to recognize it anyway, lol.

PC will NOT recognize Droid 3! HELP!!!

I made a thread recently about my phone not connecting to the computer but no one seemed to be able to help. Well I have still have the same problem and I am hoping SOMEONE can help me! Below I have listed everything I have tried, btw I am not a noob at this stuff. My phone connected fine before and now it will not.
I have tried:
Reinstalling drivers
Using the STOCK cord that came with my D3
Restarting phone, and computer multiple times
Going into AP Fastboot mode
Using differernt USB ports
Using different computers
Nothing seems to work. Unless someone knows how to get a free replacement from verizon/online I need to go back to stock and unroot so I can get a replacement so I can actually use my USB. A stock backup would be good too, as I can download it from my phone/put it on through my SD Card. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!
P.S- I don't mind having to pay for a replacement, however, I pay for the full insurance and I think it is bs that I have to pay a deductible at least for the first time.
Thanks in advanced,
Andy

[Q] O2X not recognized when plugged in via USB port...

Hey guys, as the title says, I have a USB connection problem.
You see, when I turn off the phone, remove the battery and plug it in to the USB port while holding the vol down button, nothing happens! On the phone, the S/W upgrade screen appears, but smartflash does not detect my phone!
Also, when I try to connect my phone to my PC while the phone is running, it charges but I don't get any "bug" icon (from USB debugging), neither does my PC seem to realize that my phone is connected. But, it still charges my phone...
I tried flashing different roms and kernels, but nothing changes. I tried changing from CP USB to AP USB from the hidden menu, but that does not solve it either... I'm getting kinda desperate here :/
My specs:
ROM: CM7.2.0
Kernel: 2.6.32.55-cyanogenmod [email protected]))
BB: 1035.21_20110725
RIL: 0725
Both my computers are running Windows 7, one of them is running x86 and the other one x64.
Is it a software or hardware issue?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
EDIT: I've done some research on Google and found other people with issues that seem like mine, but none of them got any helpful answer! Hence this thread. MODS: If you see this thread and you know for fact that there are other threads on this particular issue, I would be eternally grateful if you could PM me or at least post a link with a solution before closing my thread! (21/8-2012)
EDIT 2: I tried most of the roms and kernels from the first two pages in Dev Section, none of them are changing anything. (6/9-2012)
EDIT 3: After trying different cables, I've come to the conclusion that there's something wrong with my phone's USB port, but I can't send it back for repair since my warranty is void. Therefore, my question to you guys is:
Is there any way to flash a completely stock rom (without root) without a working USB connection? (8/9-2012)

I have the same problem and couldn't find any working solution yet.
The phone charges normally but there isn't any notification for mounting the removable storage (which is something I really need to sync files), even after unchecking and rechecking the USB debugging option.
So, it's not a PC problem, this time is the phone that doesn't recognize the computer.
For me, it started after plugging a USB OTG adapter (to see if it fits) and I couldn't get it to connect to regular USB anymore.
Can anyone help us?

I have the same problem like OP with a 1€ micro usb cable.
Works perfect with the original one, so try some different cables (and usb ports).
just an idea...

Try different usb cables in different usb ports on different computers (unless you already done so). Try with stock rom. If it's still not working try to clean the USB port's connectors inside the phone, a cotton bud should do the trick (it might be good with a cleaning liquid to, there are some special ones out there for the job ask in your local hardware store).
If all above give no result we can almost assume that its a hardware problem. If you got warranty contact the place you bought it. If not there are mobile repair stores.
Hope it helps.

Yup, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a cable problem... I almost threw away an external harddrive that I thought wasn't working (I could read the files in it but I couldn't write any files into it!) until I tried a different cable and it worked fine!! Pretty weird right?
Also, problems with USB and cyanogenmod are not new to me, but latest temasek's roms have been working perfectly to me, have you tried any of those?
Best of luck!

Thanks guys, tried with 2 different cables in many different ports, but it's still not working. So now I know that there's something wrong with my phone.
But I can't send it in for repair since my warranty is void, and there's no way to get everything to stock now AFAIK...
What should I do? Any advice?
Yeah, LarsPT, I've tried temasek's builds from 131 to 135. None of them are helping my case.

i have the same problem. tried everything but not working. please help

Tried some other kernel?
Or is some driver missing? But i think there is no one needed :/

Yeah, I tried many kernels, but now I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with the usb port in my phone

I had a similar problem and had to do a reinstall of the LG drivers and a bit of fiddling with the device manager.
Or that could be a completely different problem. I don't know.

Help!
+1 for this post! had exactly the same problems. And yeah,I did try different LG drivers,different USB ports,and different PCs! I went ahead as far as spending a day over at our IT LAB at school to try and fix it,but after almost 20 PCs later,no luck,basically stucked at this friggin' phone charging via USB but not recognized. Was working fine before I rooted the phone though,so is there any way to restore it to out of box state ROM by using CWM? please do not suggest me using NVFlash or smartflash,or I will bang my head on the table.

hm... I had a similar situation with my O2x... I know theres a internal memory and a external!
I removed the SDcard and the PC would just charge my phone, it wouldent even recognize my internal memory. After I added the SDcard, it just starts to work.
Maybe stupid or idk, but try to change the SDcard and try again :-/
EDIT: does your phone recognize your SDcard normally ? Back it up and format it over your phone... something like that :-/

Hey guys, I've been searching all over O2x forum to see if someone found a solution to this problem, and seems like no one did, good news, I found one, i made a turorial but dont have the 10 posts to make a thread, sorry for this pseudo spam message but need to get the 10 posts to put my tutorial on a new thread
