Can somebody give me some advice on this? I have WFS from MetroPCS, using hensemod6 currently. everythimg works good except a few little things, the home,menu,back,search buttons don't light up anymore. I can't rotate the screen at all. Proximity sensor doesn't work for while you're on the phone for the screen to go off, and finally can't receive or send any MMS. I have tried to flash other roms after hensemod and I couldn't get passed boot-loop. So reverted back to hensemod6 again, and patiently waiting for Henry_01 to come out with some fixes if he can. If anybody know of anyway to help me please and thank you I will be grateful.

Hi

I have a problem with my htc and i need some help if you can. I recently got a 4gb sd card for my phone and it doest work on it but the card works perfectly on the Samsung Galaxy Mini and the HTC TYTN II that i also have :).
So my quastion is this. Is there anything else to do besides the format or the phone supports a special brand of a 4gb sd card??

P.S. please post me a link of a giude on how to upgrade the phone i ve been reading the wildfire section all day today and the only thing i found is the rom section.

Thanks in advance

Maybe this has already been addressed but you can root the Wildfire S with S-ON...

I'd post a link but I can't -_- In fact the only reason i'm posting here at all is so i can report a friggin bug with a rom -_-

FAQ needs to be updated. You can root with S-ON. I have - I'm GSM, fully rooted A510e with AOKP build 38 (ICS 4.0.4) installed and running great. Removed some of the fluff that came with the ROM.

People have had problems with SD cards. Some just don't work for some reason. I would say get a different SD card

maybe you can try to press the power button to reboot it. Then power off. (you can remove the battery to make sure the phone has been shut off). After that, you take another try to unlock the bootloader.

wish you good luck!

    As people are making multiple threads about the same thing again and again, I decided to make one thread for FAQ.

    --------------------------------------------------------


    Q) Can I root my phone?
    A- Yes, only if you have S-OFF


    Q) How do I get S-OFF on my phone?

    A- Please visit htcdev to start unlocking your phone!


    Q) How much internal memory does HTC Wildfire S have?

    A- 150 MB.


    Q) Is Flash supported on my phone?

    A- Answer is both, yes and no. Full Flash is not supported but a few chinese developers have made a "lite" version for ARMv6 devices i.e; Wildfire S


    Q) I'm having problem with Sync. It doesn't work!

    A- Keep your internal memory more than 15 MB. Only then it'll work.


    Q) My battery life is very bad. What to do?

    A- You should buy a new battery. Not from HTC but from some other site(s). Try Mugen Power batteries or buy one from eBay if you don't wish to spend $47 on a battery.

    [SOLVED] battery drain issue

    :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Hello everyone who is experiencing really massive battery drain on wildfire S.

    Symptoms:
    1. you own wildfire S
    2. in battery stats the "dialer" is on top (eg. 97%)
    3. you have made a call recently
    4. experiencing battery drain about 30-50% per hour.

    Cause:
    Maybe it really surprises you (or your girlfriend:rolleyes:), but you are most probably making a phone call. The new wildfire's dialer is just a bit crappy. When you dial a number and then want to hang up, you have to do it by correct button (the red "hang-up" button). There is also a possibility to "terminate the call" by pressing the "back" button on the bottom, but in this case your call is not terminated at all, but dialer is running now in the background. The nice example is when you are calling a buddy and then you hang-up(using back button) after you realized that you are being redirected to voicemail. By doing this you are still talking to a voicemail for a period of time until the call is terminated automatically by that particular carrier.

    Solution:
    Use the red button to terminate the phone call. Check the logs and you will see if this is your case.

    If you find this post helping to you, just say "Thanks" :) ---->

    Error in FAQ

    Q) Can I root my phone?
    A- Yes, only if you have S-OFF




    That is not true.

    I (and MANY others) are enjoying a rooted phone (and custom ROM, etc.) with an S-ON HTC Wildfire S.

    S-OFF is NOT a requirement for root.

    How can I know if my wildfire s is S-ON or S-OFF ?
    Go to Settings > Power > Disable Fast Boot.

    Turn off the phone, then turn it on again with the power button but hold the volume down button at the same time.

    This is recovery mode. It should say it at the top of the screen.
