Okay, 2.37 can now be downgraded. My question is, when creating a gold card, do I need to have a spare sd card for it? I'm a little confused. We 2.37 users need to have this gold card to be able to push the 1.32 build to our phones.

I think so since creating a gold card is like formatting it with set presets. After that get supercid so you wont need a goldcard afterwards. Good luck!

Still discussing as it turns out, how are things in CD?

Btw, I just checked the Sensation earlier against my better judgement... It didn't seem too enticing but it does feel extremely better on hand, friendlier and durable build though.

I thought I was gonna feel the tingle and impulse to buy but good thing I didn't. I still like my DHD better. Maybe it has a lot to do with the root issue and its a good thing to maybe wait for the EVO3DGSM to compare... :)

I won't be changing my dhd for the sensation, but my wife has an old desire that needs an upgrade and the sensation is perfect for that.

I'm trying Honey Sense, I downloaded their files I got RIL, HSHD 6.2.1, Honeysense HD EXT4, HSHD 6.2.2 and Honesense HD 6.2.

I read the guide here on how to flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964996&highlight=FLASHING+ROM

but I'm pretty much confused on which one should I do first and etc. Like those two HSHD 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 what are those for?

Sorry if I'm bothering you guys.

Sorry if I'm bothering you guys.

Steps:
1. Flash Honeysense HD EXT4 (this formats your partitions to use EXT4 filesystem.)
2. Flash Honeysense HD 6.2 (this is the complete ROM. it's a big file.)
3. Boot it up first.
4. Flash HSHD 6.2.2 (this is the current update.)
5. Go to Recovery again and flash the RIL.
6. Flash the Font Fix (found in the downloads site. download it first.)
7. Boot it up again.

And you're done. :)

EDIT:
Before connecting to the internet/wifi/3g, get on to the weather app, menu, settings, turn off weather sounds. This causes FC's.

Anyone? From Cebu? I've been everywhere looking for a Case-Mate Barely There. I can't find :|
or does anyone know a store from Manila that sells it? I'll probably just have one bought there. Or even better if the store can ship too.

So, I can just put all the files all at once in my SD card right?

Buddy, are the words on the options really invisible? :O

EDIT:

Already fixed it, just needed to flash 6.2.1 and then re-flash 6.2.2 :)

Theming bugs are something to expect from HS since it's a fully themed ROM. :) There are still some options that the update hasn't fixed but I've accepted that for better performance and battery life.

You could always hold your finger down on it to read it.

Congrats btw! My advice is to try out every ROM so you get a feel of what's best for you. They're all the same but there are some that people like more than others. Yan naman yung masaya sa pagrooroot eh. :)

There are also ROMS that support lots of theming options with regards to icons, bootanimations, scrolldown bar, app dock, the whole launcher, battery icons and even the color schemes.

Have fun! And congrats again for taking the leap!

    Hi guys! Any combo...kernel,radio,Rom that makes most of the battery?

    Still in stock everything right now *grins*. Still too busy playing Eve Online hehehe.

    And I think I like the idea of going kernel and radio first.

    For the Radio, you can go to this thread by Drakknar:

    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877295

    The one released on January 4th, 2011 is the most commonly recommended radio version atleast for Android Revolution, LeeDroid and CoreDroid ROMs. I'm using this version too.

    On the other hand, Kamma and LeeDroid have already released their latest Kernels that incorporates the new performance enhancement that adds 600-700 in Quadrant Scores. You can find pretty much everything (ROM, Kernel, Radio, Extras, Instructions) in Post #1 of each thread.

    ARHD: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=840040
    CD: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858418

    Always read first before flashing. Since you're still in stock, I suggest you read jkoljo's guide to flashing:

    Temp Root + Perma Root + Radio S-Off:
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857537
    Eng S-Off:
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=855403

    Then again, it's always up to you whether to root or not. :D

    updated my kernel to LD v 2.2.4 and this fixed my problem nice!!!

    another question. how can i edit my widget.txt permissions to rw-r--r-- to change my toggles on power notification??? thanks

    Try this if you have adb:
    1. Hook phone to PC (USB debugging should be on, select charge only)
    2. Open cmd, type:
    C:\Android-sdk-windows\tools>adb shell [Enter]
    $ su [Enter]
    # mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system [Enter]
    # chmod 777 /system/customize [Enter]
    # exit [Enter]
    $ exit [Enter]
    ***system is now mounted rw

    3. Edit the .txt file and:
    - a. save (from Root Explorer etc.)
    - b. or push the edited .txt file via adb push widget.txt /system/customize [Enter]

    restore the original directory permissions by:
    # chmod 755 /system/customize [Enter]
    (Restarting also remounts system back as RO)

    Hope it helps :D

    Otterbox Defender Series...

    The Defender finally arrived! I was surprised how huge it was especially with the holster on but after a few hours of trying it, here are the pros and cons:

    Pros:
    - Feels better on hand, definitely solid with maximum protection.
    - Built in screen membrane is responsive even with an existing SP.
    - Rubber is thicker than the Commuter series.
    - Polycarbonate shell snaps on perfectly.
    - Dropped it a couple of times from waist length to test and phone survives without scuff.
    - Included case is versatile and actually makes more sense to use to holster and dock. Works best on both portrait and landscape :D
    - Turns DHD into a formidable weapon against perps!
    - Protects DHD when your girlfriend sees questionable messages...lol (will survive if thrown out the window)
    - Port access is still logical same as the Commuter but flap is definitely much more durable.
    - Good solution when wearing boardshorts...

    Cons:
    - Heavy! (but perfect for me, might be too heavy for a lot of users)
    - Obvious bulk and not pocketable, unless you have hip hop pants... lol (use the holster)
    - Learning curve on tapping the sides of the screen since the polycarbonate shell adds about half a cm of protection but limits access a bit.
    - Built in screen protector/membrane is glossy... natural enemy of my moisturized hands.

    Overall, I'm pretty happy with it. It makes the DHD an even bigger monster. More importantly, the holster allows me to prop the phone on my office table, car etc... Pretty convenient when watching videos and such.

    The "daddy" holster actually doesn't look like those leather belt clip-type things, looks more like a head turner when clipped to your backpocket... (I've been asked by 4 strangers during lunch...)

    I'd say a good purchase from Amazon for 29US including shipping. Definitely worth the wait (more than 30 days). Now I can let someone else enjoy the Commuter (if luthor's still interested) while I bring my DHD combat style :D

    Here's a pic... Sorry for the poor quality, taken from an SGS :p

    Android marketing in general is crap here. It's seen as a cheap, rip-off to apple products, which is just sad.

    Philippines Android = Galaxy 5, Optimus One, Apad, other iPad rip-offs.

    There are little groups that know Android but it needs a community.

    I've been an iPhone user for almost 5 years only to switch to Android. In my own humble opinion, iOS pales in comparison to Android mainly because of fucntionality and price. The only downside, for now, is the number of apps you have in the Market as compared to the long-running AppStore. That's probably because Android has a wide variety of hardware specs from low end to the elite models so developers aren't really encourage to release an app that would only run on some higher end models. :(

    I think our kababayans have the wrong mentality for Android. They think too highly for any iPhone and majority of them don't even have an idea what an Android is. I'd say some appreciate elegance and beauty more than what's under the hood. :)

    As I see it, starting from the recent CES 2011 and the upcoming MWC 2011, Android will consume us all!! :D
