HTC EVO 4G :: Official 2.1 Better Than 2.2?
Aug 7, 2010
I spent last night playing with both my parents DroidXs and my wife's Evo all of which are still on 2.1. I can say without a doubt and everyone in the house agreed thier phones run better. Sure my phone scores better on linpack but it doesn't translate to better performance. I think any performace gains we think we have are just imagined. I was in the same boat as many of you. I thought it performed better until I ran them all side by side. Sure mine will play a couple of videos theirs won't but not many. Once you have about 3 different browsers they will play most things on 2.1. If you're on 2.1, stay there.

Where I can download the official 3.26.651.6 (Froyo) OTA zip file from? I can download the OTA via my phone, as I'm still on 2.1, but I'm rooted with Unrevoked3 and need the zip file to try an upgrade and I can't see to find it anywhere. Was hoping maybe someone here had a copy of the OTA zip somewhere. I don't need the 2.2 ROM, I'm just looking for the 86mb official OTA update zip file.

I've seen a few threads from people having issues with the latest orange rom (2.73.61.66) but have yet to find anyone with the issue i'm having.
Basically, i keep getting an error message saying something like:
"this process has stopped unexpectedly"
giving the only option to force close. When it is force closed the same message pops up again. and again. and again. The only way to stop it is to either battle against the message and hope you can hit the power down button, or to pop the battery.
Sometimes it throws up other messages similar to the above one but for specific applications (ie sense, google talk..whatever..) but these never come alone, they always bring the original force close message.
Anyway, i've been onto orange and, tho i'm very pissed off, they have been good. they set me a replacement handset in less than 24 hrs (as they thought it might be a screen malfunction) which i was buzzing over until i got the same message! gutted. After talking to their tech support he suggested a hard reset followed by not adding any apps to the phone, so now i have a stock hero with stock apps and i'm waiting to see if i get a similar message...but in the mean time does anyone know of any possible conflicting applications? here is a list of the market apps i have used:
"Audio manager widget"
"beebplayer"
"Battery widget"
"Replica island"
"gStrings guitar tuner"
"Hoccer"
"Google sky map"
"Astro file manager"
"TV guide free uk"
"Ringdroid"
"Free advanced task manager"
It seems weird to me that i had no issues what so ever before upgrading the rom.

A while ago, I installed VillainROM in my HTC Hero because I wanted to try it out. Now I hear the official 2.1 has been released and since my phone is being a little buggy lately, I want to install the official one. "Off Course" I don't remember how I did it and don't know how to do the procedure.
1. Is there an official ROM for Belgium, I can download?
2. How do I do this (I know I did all the official steps while upgrading to VillainROM.

I installed VillainROM on my Hero last week, but I've been unhappy with its performance and I need to return the phone to Three. Might be a daft question, but I can't find any documentation on it - how do I revert to the official ROM?

I've read: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...[url] But both discussions seem a little outdated. At Google IO there were free HTC Magic phones (unlocked as ADP1?). So, basing on all this, I wonder if there's something official about ADP2.

The official F1 timing application has quietly made an appearance in the Market. Did anybody try it for Valencia because at �20 for the year it is a bit steep?

Anyone got the Hip Hop Official application on their phone? We're looking to make the channel better, but need to know what you want more of. More interviews, more music videos, more hotties?

I have a stock incredible and I'd like to upgrade to 2.2 (I have the prompt for the OTA update) but I'd also like to root and retain that root on my phone, which I understand I should do before the OTA update.

My co-worker updated to Froyo yesterday on his Evo 4G. He came in today complaining that the phone is actually slower, music sounds like a tin can, and pandora skips after 1 minute or so every time. Has anyone else had these issues? This was the official OTA update not the one off internet.

Has any body seen this official car mount for the Desire? it seems a little expensive to me. It apparently activates the NaviPanel interface on your phone when plugged in but how do you know if your phone supports this or not?

There have already been several requests for information on how to downgrade back to the official 2.2. The following process will remove root. Whether you need to return a phone or you just want to clean the slate and go back to stock, here is how to get there:
Note: Your SD card MUST be formatted to FAT32 before proceeding. The file will not be recognized otherwise. If you have yet to format, remember that formatting wipes the card. Be sure to copy/move your SD contents to a safe place (PC desktop) and replace after the formatting process. I will not go into the procedure in this thread as it is easily found with a Google search.
1.) Need to return a phone and currently have S-Off? (aka Unrevoked Forever) If so, please visit public:forever [RootWiki] where you can download the latest S-On tool and the process to load to your phone. If you want to keep S-Off and just return to the official 2.2, skip to step 2.
2.) Download the 2.2 PB31IMG.zip (extracted from the official 2.2 RUU)
Mirror 1 (Credit and thanks to Doug Piston for hosting)
Mirror 2
Note the file size (172 MB) and the MD5 (31BB1611A0FA8197D447C0438426717E) to ensure a successful download and file integrity. If you have questions about how to verify MD5, please see post #2 of this thread.
3.) Attach phone to PC with USB debugging on and in disk drive mode.
4.) Access the SD storage and drag the PB31IMG.zip from the desktop onto the root of the SD card (any open area, do not place into a folder).
5.) Swipe down notification bar on phone and change to charge only.
6.) Unplug phone from PC and turn off phone.
7.) Hold volume down while pressing power button to enter hboot.
8.) PB31IMG.zip should be automatically recognized in hboot. Press volume up to continue with update. Do NOT interrupt.
9.) When finished, reboot to stock 2.2 and verify the following information at Menu > Settings > About Phone:
Android Version: 2.2
Baseband Version: 2.15.00.07.28
Software Number: 3.26.605.1
10.) Remove the PB31IMG.zip from the SD card to avoid an inadvertant reload in the future. You are now unrooted and on stock 2.2
Also adding the RUU option for those that are interested. Thanks again to Doug for the upload/host. For those new to RUU, download to a PC and run from there:

Just as the title says, I guess CM6 is officially out for download, but does not come up in Rom Manager, or searched CM's site, and doesn't have a "stable" build listed for DInc.

It's $400 and out of stock. There are Chinese Android 'phones on eBay for less than $100 - can I just use one of them for development? The answer is probably yes, so I guess that what I am asking is if the official HDK makes life (significantly) easier for me.

I guess 1.6 will be out officially from Samsung/Samstunk. http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/samsung-planning-android-1-6-update-for-behold-ii-but-thats/
I wonder if it will still have TouchWiz? If so, I will just keep the Galaxy R12. But if I do decided to get it, would I go back to stock Behold 2 rom?

JUst to let you guys know I received my HTC pouch the other day and it's the best thing I could have done. I used to have the gel case which was great but didn't protect the screen and I didn't want to quick a protector onto my phone. The beauty of the pouch is that is allows you to have the beautiful touch and feel of the phone but able to keep it well protected as well.

Figured I would try to share the update with google docs. The other mirrors people send us are always all full of popups and such. Just seems much easier to use Google.

Any word on how the evo is doing as far as number of sales? I haven't heard anything at all. Which is kind of strange usually after the first week or two a number is released.
