A Dying Breed? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed over the past week that thes mt4g forums are getting less & less. It kinda bums me out and has me wondering if soon, this phone will die out all together, when its still such a wonderful device! I know its inevitable, but where should I go next? I'm just wondering where this hobby is taking everyone? What device are all of the regulars here in the mt4g section going to next?

I, for one, don't post much here anymore because it typically feels like EVERYTHING has been covered. From Rooting 2.2 phones to 2.3. phones, how to check Serial numbers of the motherboards. And everything in between. I'm really getting sick of pointing people to threads that already exist. If they are to lazy to look, i'm to lazy to help.

I love the phone myself, and I'm currently running a Sense 3.5, I think I've finally determined that I prefer Sense Roms. I've tried most of them, but as I have sat back and noticed, there is a lot of posting things that have been covered. One thing though..MOST of the old links are dead, and some of the simple stuff is kinda aggravating to find when you're in a panic mode .. but for now I'm gonna keep my mt4g til it is ABSOLUTELY a dinosaur, which its not to me yet...

DYIN BREED? perhaps,BUT NOT YET
Was thinking same thoughts awhile back but not lately. So much new work as stated by others and since t-mobile is still selling this phone [mostly internet] tis no reason to fret. I'm gonna use this one till great granny grunts.

I suppose yall are right, I guess I don't see a lot of discussion going on. I would love to see some constructive discussions going on, without there having to be a problem. But I understand people are busy. I check the boards like once an hour and I love to see new things, & it just seems like its getting less. Also I'm a little late in the game..Just when I'm getting familiar with things, it appears to be winding down..

If you check once an hour you'll lose your mind. Trust me.
I check morning and evening unless some stuff is going down. You know, like a couple of weeks ago. At this point all we are missing are some camera/camcorder developments for ICS, some miracle worker patching the genius app for ICS and that's about it.

I think that since a lot of threads being closed lately that people are more hesitant to open another thread about anything unless it's important.

yup, and in canada it was only released a few months ago.. so there will be more people buying this, and hopefully they know about XDA
i just got a sensation and decided to come back to the mt4g. its a great device, dont get me wrong.. and it looks slick as hell.. and development is CRAZY.. but its not a worthy upgrade to be honest. rather wait for the one series (at&t's one X im looking at you bro)

F**k yeah xD. I hope he does make a Sense 4.0 kernel! His were always good..as you guessed, I'm more of a fan of Sense...working on a ROM right now, but the thing ain't booting! Ah well, I'll get it.

It doesn't seem empty around here, but the overall enthusiasm seems to have dropped from a year ago.
I will echo the sentiments here though in that this phone is an amazing device. I had a friends last years get the google phone (the one after the nexus one, the name escapes me), and another get the Motorola Droid X (or the one after that..again I cannot remember). And the reason I cannot remember is because they both long ago opted for an upgrade because they said their phones were shot.
Now perhaps they didn't treat their phones like I did mine (rooting and using the latest, efficient rooms and kernels), but this phone does perform flawlessly. Aside from being a tiny bit slow compared to other newer phones, and because I have not found a ICS ROM that works for me, I am seriously getting swayed by the HTC One hype (especially when they announced that TMO wag getting the One-X in addition to the One-S).
If I did pick up one of those phones, I don't think I could sell this phone though... I might even keep a line open for it. Its just too good of a runner.

Why not just wait

Ok i know most here like myself want froyo pretty badly. Much respect to the devs here and cm for bringing us froyo but honestly until htc releases the kernel whats the point. From the froyo flashes i have ran they all are nice but there isnt any performance increase over the rest of the roms that have been released so far. Yes according to linpack and quadrant the current froyo is faster but in real world situations it isnt.
This is no way a bash to the developers. They have worked extremely hard so far to get us what we do have. I just say to wait for the kernel to be released and then let the magic happen.

I like trying new things. I just don't like that eugene and other devs release broken roms and tell us not to "complain" when all we are doing is stating what's broken
Let it be known I'm not trying to start anything. I guess its a reason to wait for offical release because nothin will be broken

Im not necessarily saying to wait for an official release. Take cyanogen mod 6 for example. They are putting alot of hard work into getting froyo to us but on the stock kernel. Once the kernel is released then there going to have more work on their hands.

*double take* What? Is everyone here daft? They do this out of the kindness of their cockles and tease us about not complaining and then make updates, anyway! I'm having fun, son! Lighten up, homeslice. Let's kiss.
Personally I really like that these ROMs are out. It's like a ray of hope that 2.2 is coming, regardless of what T-Mobile or HTC decide to do. The one thing I've been really irked about when it comes to the carriers and handset makers is that they don't seem as interested in new technology. When T-Mo says that the myTouch is going to get froyo, I am kind of thinking that there's no reason to hold your breath. Maybe froyo will come, maybe next year, and honestly I don't want to wait that long. So it's nice to see even these ROMs because it means that the stable version is coming, and not on a T-Mo schedule...
im waiting !!!! lol
First off, I really appreciate all the hard work the devs are putting in. I kinda notice that the other new devices are getting more love then the slide but I guess that's due to its lack of "hype" or maybe since it's still fairly new.
I must say I'm joining the waiting boat though. My first slide was a breeze to root and mod. Unfortunately, I took it in for exchange (squeeky battery door and dust under the screen). The new one hasn't been so easy to mod. I managed to root and flash Eugene's SMR5r1, which I had on the old phone and loved. Since then all attempts to get into Clockwork have failed. I'm chillin' until there's an easier method.

Did you flash Eng-Build? If you didn't then you won't be able to get into Clockwork.
you guys complain way too much. threads like these make the devs shut it down all together. eugene373 has done that before and if these bs threads keep getting created then we can for sure hang it up and wait for the official release. so just be a lil...(f*ck that), A LOT more appreciative of the devs and their work on froyo
we put out buggy alphas because you cant wait.
we say no feedback because we know its broken. we also run our own roms so we are also testing and fixing on fly

Anyways, I'm waiting for the official 2.2 as of now, I don't mind the wait, and I don't really like the roms put out right now, I enjoy using the custom Sense UI, that's one of the main reasons I got the slide. I really hope a dev starts improving on the espresso UI more. I appreciate all of the other work devs are doing, but it's too much vanilla android for my taste. After having a G1 and MT3G for a year you kind of want something new

I kind of agree! I love the stock sense ui and was pretty disappointed when devs strayed from 2.1 sense roms. After trying a couple of froyo roms.. I've decided I'm sticking with smr4 with the sense ui. I WOULD go back to stock but I would miss a2sd waaaaaay too much.

Is it just me or are you in the same boat? There have been a lot of great phones shown recently but for some reason my evo is imho the best phone I have ever laid eyes upon...
This rant is for all the evo enthusiasts! I am not going to debate anyone about any particular phone because I could care less.. don't even care about your thoughts on Sprints service; I love it by the way.
I wake up and turn over and there she is, always right beside me. Sometimes in between me and my wife but I love her! She has so many different costumes: ROMs, that I change them like I change my work socks. Every couple days, lol...

Sent from my HTC Supersonic using the XDA app. -Electronic, Supersonic-
The primary reason I love my Evo so much is the developer support. Next to the Nexus One, this phone has got to have the most custom development going on for it. CyanogenMod, MIUI, Honeycomb (pre-alpha, but it still exists), etc. Sure, some of the newer phones like the Motorola Atrix or the upcoming Galaxy S II handily defeat the Evo in terms of specs, but you can't completely modify the software on those devices to meet your needs.
HTC made a smart decision by leaving this device completely open to development. Because of that, we'll still be ahead of the curve much sooner than these new superphones.
Now, if the Evo 2 is announced sometime soon, then that's another issue entirely .
Were you referring the "need help" comment to me? And I don't make love to my phone... lol... that would be cheating, on my wife.. ha ha ha

My thoughts exactly, its not the evo, but the capabilities and constant development that comes with it. I don't know what a "evo2" would be like but I sure don't see myself leaving this evo anytime soon.

[Q] Pace of ROM development?

If this question just irritates anyone, mods feel free to delete it.
I'm curious at what is holding up the pace of ROM development for the Shift? There have been some nice quality ROMs out so far (BCNice in particular, some great work), but it seems like development has stalled slightly. Is there something that HTC hasn't released yet, or some major firmware hurdle?
Remember, this is NOT a complaint about the devs, far from it, just curiosity.
I here where you are coming from. I don't have a shift I have an evo. But if you really feel that strongly about it you should try just making your own. When I was using sense rom's that's what I did. I was able to customize the rom how I wanted put in what I wanted and so on. You should try that.
And please don't see this as me flaming you or hope this didn't offend you in any way, just a suggestion.

I had thought about that, but it's not so much that I don't like the ROMs available, it just seemed like development abruptly slowed down, and I was curious why.

Oh, I'm not debating how hard the devs work...they do great work and once my money situation settles I plan on donating to several of them.
I was just wondering if they had hit some kind of a development roadblock, like I saw when I had an Epic and Samsung refused to release the kernel source.
Sorry if I was mis-understood...this thread was never meant to be a shot at any of the devs.

Ohhh. I see. Yeah I don't see that kind of a stand still in the rom development for the evo I mean heck we have an influx of roms in our development section. But I say just give it some time. The shift is still a fairly new device. And I am sure that when it happens it will be like someone opened the flood gates.lol.

i do believe the holdup is a fully working recovery. the ones we have are....temperamental....to say the least. but patience. all good things have yet to come
in the mean time, feel free to pick up a .zip and start developing...you never know unless you try
Hang around IRC. Good stuff going on in there. Still some beta stage stuff (which works quite well), but before you know it, they'll be here.
I like a lot of what has been done. When we get to the point of a fully working 2.3 I'll do cartwheels...and I can't do cartwheels...
Either way, you get the point.
I was just about to pose this question as well. I have the Evo and my brother has the Evo shift and I was curious about the rom development support. I hope someone is able to do a One Click Root as well since i'm really not comfortable not using it.
Would love to see Myn's roms on here, cm7 and miui on here. We both would definitely donate.
I also wondered what happened. It was like we got S-OFF and the kernel source and people tinkered with the phone for 2 weeks and just stopped.

Well played, sir.
willing to test this rom out? i'm still working at it..it's 60% droid x style.I'm currently running it now.
as any other roms you flash.You must wipe to factory settings clear dalvik cache and wipe cache partitions and the rest then flash the rom.

I think the OP is questioning exactly what everyone's been up to. Care to shed some light on where he's heading (Sense 2.0, CM7, etc)
Was wondering the same thing. Keep checking here everyday and nothing.

You guys are awesome.

Whats up guys ...
Hope you all enjoy Gingerbread it seems to be close to release and comming along pretty good ...
I also want to thank the Devs and all of the people who's hard work goes into making Kernels, Themes, Roms,How to videos ...
This has been my favorite forum (even with its ups and downs -_- )on XDA all of you guys are awesome
Thanks!! for making the epic a truly Epic phone.
Keep up the good work guys hope you guys enjoy what time you have left here.
before i leave though ...

Its amazing the maturity of the people on the Epic forums compared to the Evo forums ... it's ridiculous
woot woot!
Ditto on the Within. I haven't truely made up my mind just yet (although I hate the screen, cams and battery life on the evo3d). I don't get my upgrade til September (epic release date) after calling Sprint about premier gold vs silver (thanks again guys!) and my plan is to wait about a month (if necessary) to see what Cyanogenmod prospects look like on both platforms. If the within has good progress at least being made, within for sure. But if it's a small dev community (don't get me wrong, ours is certainly quality over quantity ) again working on a very different us variant with issues, it may be enough to make me take the Evo3D. I love its resolution like you wouldn't believe, but I think the screen looks like crap because of the 3d surface on top of it. Plus qualcomm crappy battery life, 720p 5mp only cameras... should be interesting!
I don't think I'm alone in saying though the epic taught me a very valuable lesson. Never buy on release day. Its hard I know but the epic is great, we've STILL got great devs hard at work, and gingerbread and flash look better than on a mac (which almost always suck with fash). I'll wait it out a bit. If I upgrade it'll be mostly for software support, mods and a bit more running ram for multitasking.

This is basically my thoughts ... i think im going to wait ... but you can order the Evo 3d online now ...

Mystery's ability to do what he did with froyo makes me wonder what we'll get from ACS regarding GB. This release was sick. It's the froyo we were all seeking. I think we're on track to see our phones rise as their reliability continue to cruise. I know people still joining older phones for cost reasons. We'll have another wave enter our community down the road. It's all cyclical. The Within crowd will be demanding before they learn patience. Be strong, grasshoppers.
That reminds me, in preparation for my trip to Amsterdam and Germany I was updating my old TP2 (for the sim card slot, last year I got 6.5-7mbps on vodafone germany, for ten euros for the month prepaid! Way faster than 3g sprint, kinda funny). They still have active development going on! Its awesome, I love the community! June 6th for the rom, then they've got a very nice froyo (and somewhat unstable gingerbread) in both nand flash or haret boot. Amazing. That and the wpa-supplicant ad-hoc hack for the epic and I'll be tethering my epic to the tp2, google voice and skype, ten euros prepaid internet and I'll be good to go! Did I mention I love the community?!

She said she'll pay for the Within.. so $200 and im guessing the Within will be more .. so im making interest

A little goodbye to the NS community...

.
I would like to start out by saying thank you to all of the wonderful devs that motivated me to start devving, and to all of the users who kept me going.
I don't want this to be a long goodbye, as most users don't really care. I just figured I should explain my leaving instead of just disappearing.
So, I have almost obtained an Epic 4G Touch, as most ns4g users have started doing. It will be shipped tomorrow, and development for it will start the minute I get it unboxed. My Nexus S 4G will happily sit on the table in my room, prolly collecting dust
I want to continue providing ports and such for the nexus s and nexus s 4g, but development from me will continue to decline and may eventually stop. I have a few unfinished projects that I would like to get somewhat close to working ( sense 4.0, touchwiz ), and hand over to the other devs. I have a few updates to my roms that have been sitting on my laptop for months, which I want to release. I have an update for just about every port I had done. I plan on updating sense 4.0 until it is usable. Other than that, I'm outta here.
I made tons of friends over here, and also made a few enemies..... but in the 5 months I had developed for this phone I had the best experiences ever. Thank you to all the devs that helped me out with my stupid questions (Lithid, fergie) and also thanks to all of the users that kept me motivated when things seemed down... I hope to keep in touch with you guys. If you have my gtalk just hit me up with any questions or even just to chit chat, im a nice guy This community was awesome, I hope to one day see you all on another device, maybe this years nexus?
Anyway, farewell Nexus S.
Duuuuude.... I just flashed that 4.0.4 stock ROM with your tweaks and it's so smooth. Now I hear this..... :'(
Well good luck in your future with the 4g touch
Thank you for your work I wish you would stay Btw that mod makes 4.0.4 so much smoother!

For yours, I hope its not haha. The e4gt is an awesome phone.
Thanks for all the hard work you've done.
And for the flashable zip you made yesterday.

It definitely is the smoothest I've tried, if it had a trebuchet type of launcher like codenames to utilize the join with apps feature it would just be melted butter!
Sorry to see ya leave the ns4g . Your moving to the phone my wife has so guess I'll see ya there . Thanks for all your roms and ports swamp.

Yeah, things are definitely going to be different, the nexus was so easy to mess with, and we always had what we needed for roms and mods... first few weeks on e4gt will be interesting, I am preparing myself for a brick hahaha..
I'll be popping into this forum from time to time for sure, I couldn't just leave.. and I have heard about sbrissen all over the forums, I see his name somewhere on just about every device haha, i'll get in contact
I think its hilarious that I posted this on april fools day.. there might be something fishy about it, but nobody knows for sure...........

Almost every e4gt dev I have talked to so far has had at least one brick.. I will most likely be joining that group haha. I need to find out every mistake they made, I have never bricked a phone and don't want to find out what its like.
A few days ago, I tried odin'ing a e4gt rom to my nexus out of boredom, with my own custom pit file.. I was expecting some kind of brick with the radio or something, but nothing. This phone is insanely durable. I will miss it
Hope to see those releases sOon ...gonna miss the almost impossible ports...

My upgrade isn't until the end of september.. And i've had my share of htc phones, I'm waiting it out and hoping that the sg3 lands perfectly for my upgrade
Haha just looking around, I realized that the nexus s truly is an aosp phone.. not one of my ports is being taken up or looked at ohh well, i liked them

If I had a clue on how to maintain your ports, I would definitely attempt to keep them in a great working order.
