create a file named "welcome.not" (just a empty file!) - copy it to the SD-card - reboot ...

it kinda depends i have not been able to get it to work on the WM 6.1 roms

thanks will give it a shot but if i can ask will this help with the touchscreen not working? hey i have to ask

ok question I left it off since my last post turned it on just now and the touch screen works but it is odd one tap may work the next won't but if i keep repeatedly tapping it will register them this is after a hard reset so i assume that this is a touchscreen hardware issue?

it might be the cable is loose call tmo and they might send 1 to u for like 9.99 for shipping iv done that many times but make sure u backup your contacts they will make u do a hard reset lol

i will look into that i opedn up the phone and checked and they are all tight so i will try giving them a call

Hi, I have the same issue. What cable are you referring too? Can you please post a pic or if there is a pic somewhere could you link it here? Also, if you don't have warranty on your phone, than you cant get the cable? I am a novice at this please excuse me.

help

i restart my pphone but it stayed in the "windowns" screen instead of the home screen no matter how many times i restarted it, so what should i do now !!!!!!

I think it would be helpful if you provided addition information about your phone like what ROM you're using, etc.

um.... i cant even go on to the home screen so cant really tell.....

hard reset

Which windows screen? Titanium? Or the boot screen?
What were you doing when it happened? What happens when you pull the battery out for 10 minutes and put it back in?
We really need more details to help you.

why, why why do i click on topics that say help

MAGLDR - battery question

I've noticed that when I'll turn off phone and then put USB in, red LED is lighted for few seconds, suddenly phone starts, battery stops loading and MAGLDR is executed. It seems MAGLDR substitutes code for battery loading. Does it mean, that if I'll make battery totally empty I won't have a chance to load it without OS (which handles battery loading process)?

i thought they fixed it in magdlr .13? so you can drain your battery to 0% without problems...

AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
RTFM
/rant
Read the bit that says "New in 1.13"..... It's pretty simple.

On a side note, no, you can't kill the battery. Once power is connected, your phone uses that, it's just the light goes off while MAGLDR is booting.

Same here, when I turn off the phone and charge it, it turn on automatically. Help please!

Yet another user confirming that magldr works exaclty the way that Cotulla designed it to work. Thanks for the feedback

It's suppose to do that... that's a new feature in version 1.13 so that there isn't the problem where you have to remove battery to get phone to boot like what happened with earlier magldrs. People complained about that, so cotulla fixed it the only way possible... so it will turn on automatically, and now people are complaining about that. He said in next version it will have setting to allow the uncontrolled charging while phone is off, but you might have to remove battery to get it to boot again. Also not sure if uncontrolled charging is bad for battery or not.
You have to understand... you're hacking your phone to run OS's that weren't meant for it... things are not going to act the same as a native phone. You should feel lucky you can do these things at all.

I have 2300mAh extended battery and with almost every android rom it is useless. When android boots up to the stage when you must enter sim pin than hd2 reboots and it is going into loop. I have discovered when I isolate middle pin on the battery everything is working fine, battery is charging and it can be used without problems.

Doesn't any body READ anymore???

So isolate the pin... or use a kernel compatible with extended battery

What??? People post explanations to be read???
I thought we were just losing our time trying to help. It seems many prefer to read the title, go to the last page and ask a question for which the answer is on the first post
For their defense, the search functionnality is too complexe. Isn't it possible to just clic on a button and receive answer to all our question directly in our mailbox. Or maybe a button we can clic and directly solve our issues.
I found one... it's the "add to basket" button for an Android phone on an online shop. Works great

this thread helps me a lot! thanks for good article!

Complex? are you having a laugh?
You type in your keywords and click tyeh search button, whats hard about that?
You also get a "similar" threads list whyen creating a topic prior to posting and 9/10 you can find your answer this way also.

Of course I was having a laugh
In French we call "ironie" (not sure at all about the translation).
I write stupid things to make the owner of the thread realize that the question has not to be asked.
For this question, you don't even have to use the search function (which is not complicate, I agree).
The answer is on the first page of MAGLDR thread!!! (know issue, not corrected in x.13 but a paliative solution has been applied... the phone start to prevent having to remove the battery).
Honnestly it's sad to see that you keep posting the same answers and it seems some people never take time to read. They just ask directly their questions.
Maybe I'm sometime difficult to understand as English is not my language.
So our answers don't help... the question neither. It just make a lot of useless thread with the same question again and again.

I can also add that when you post a thread, the forum give you the thread which could give you the answer!!!

I have also trieed it in my wall charger but the same happens, just reboots all the time.

[Q] Display not working

Hello,
My HTC HD2 runs with Android (not sure which build, but i don´t think thats too important.) since half a year i think. So when i went to bed yesterday, everything was working properly, but when i wanted to check my messages after i woke up, the display remained pitch black. I connected it to the charger, and took out the battery serveral times now. Nothing changed. I found out that it is still booting, because it vibrates at startup, and I can see the interface barely in direct light. It seems asif the background light doesn´t work, and with it the touchscreen, because i can´t enter my pin-code in this barely visible menu. I don´t know if it could help to install a new android version, or whatever i may do to repair it.
So I´m asking you what opportunities there are left for me..
Thanks in advance!

look at this thread hope it will help u forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160447

So, i reinstalled android now, but it did not change anything. Was hard enough to figure out what to do, if you don´t see anything. My last chance is repairing it myself, but i don´t know where to start at. There are screws at the back, i recognized, but i fear it might be too dangerous to open it, and ruin the rest of whats left working.. :/

Scrolling issue

Hi everyone. I got my OP5 a few days ago and realized that the screen isn't working properly, apart from the jelly screen issue. Does anyone know if this is fixable or I need to replace the screen. I'll leave a video showing what I mean

I want to leave that as the last resource. Got it from another country, and sending it back costs a lot. Maybe knowing if the problem is the screen or the GPU can save me a couple of bucks

Have you tried to update the OS?

It has the latest version of OOS, but I'm starting to think that the problem isn't software related
EDIT: If anyone knows if this issue is solved by replacing the screen, please let me know
