So you Rooted your Mytouch and now lost WIFI, Bluetooth and accelerometers.
This tiny post is to help people that just rooted their phone and lost WIFI, Bluetooth and accelerometers with your new custom image. I had the same thing happen to me and this is what I did. I tried many things and followed a guide from www.subterrain.net which seems to be down now.
This will install the base image and then a custom image from Cyanogen. The outcome is a very responsive phone that works great. I updated to the latest image with CM-Update (you can download it from Market).
There are a lot of people that blame this on hardware, but it seems its just software.
Here’s their Cyanogenmod guide:
[THIS WAS COPIED FROM THEM DIRECTLY, THIS WORKED FOR ME]
Cyanogenmod Installation Steps:
Download the latest CyanogenMod ROM for your device: HERE
Put all necessary files on your SD card Now install the actual OS of the phone. First you will install the legal Google apps, and then you will install CyanogenMod on top of those apps.
Turn your phone off.
Hold the Home button while booting to get to Recovery mode.
Select “wipe data/factory reset”
Select “apply any zip from sd” choose “HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base.zip”
Press home to confirm and let installation complete (‘Formatting Cache’ will stay at the bottom of the screen but once the menu reappears, the flashing is complete)
STOP – DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE
Again, select “apply any zip from sd”) * choose “update-cm-4.2.3.1-signed.zip”
Press home to confirm and let installation complete
When this is complete, reboot your phone by pressing Home & Back or selecting that option. Wait a couple of minutes, and enjoy.
I finally launched my photography website. I’ve been working on it for months but never really felt it was “done”.
I have been doing photography gigs on my off-time and weekends for a while now, and just wanted to create a “professional” looking site. So far I have done engagement parties, a few low-cost weddings, Hindu engagements, Baptisms, Communions etc.
I’m trying to break into main stream Wedding photography but understand that I need much more practice before I would feel comfortable taking on a high-end wedding.
If in the past you searched for cheap prices for cameras online I’m sure you found a bunch of online stores that had really low prices. The problem was that they were just a bunch of crooks that wanted to take advangate of you.
The scam ran this way; You search for your model camera and found a few stores that had it priced as much as half price off. You order placed your credit card info on their site and order it only to get a phone call from them asking a ridiculous question like “Do you want a battery and charger with your camera” to which you responded; “..uhhh the [insert camera model here] comes with that already….” Then they would say “no it doesn’t come with it and it would cost you $$ to get it.” So at this point you either hung up and cancelled the order or asked for the camera as is to which they would respond sorry out of stock….
Most of these places were in Brooklyn and in-fact they had dozens of online storefronts that were the same company. This happened to me and it really pissed me off, specially thinking that they had my credit card info. I filled a BBB case but nothing came out of it. This week I received a letter from the NY Attorneys office asking me if I dealt with any of these stores and how much did I loose in the process. I’m really happy that they finally got caught. The dozens of offending stores were run by a few retailers:
1 Way Photo
86th Street Photo Fund
Best Price Cameras
Foto Connection
Sonic Cameras
Camera Wiz
Broadway Photo
So if you ever got ripped off by any of these guys contact the NY Attorneys office.
