An observation: While on 3G net, I am able to ping adresses using better terminal and get a response, but the browser refuses to load those pages.

Hi everyone & Paul

My Legend has a very odd problem. Sometimes, when I receive a call, the phone rings normally (loud) for a few seconds and then it becomes a lot softer. Sounds a little muffled. Doesnt happen all the time though...

The 'quiet ring on pickup' option is already disabled btw.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is it a software bug?

PLZ help me !

Thanks.

I have the same problem with original ROM.

I have an MP3 as a ringtone and it starts loud but, sometimes, the volume drops down sounding muffled.

PS: Paul, is it by mistake that the poll asks for Desire and not for Legend?

Can anybody list what are the locales/keyboard languages present in this release?

Well, I just need to know if it has Portuguese/Portugal.

Thank you all :P

My version is 1.31 but is an ASIAN version, im from spain and its a problem with my operator movile phone is incompatible, well not incompatible but, the keybord dont the same, the dictionary, well some things that it solve if I put ther european version.

So thanks.

EDIT: But I like to install the ROM version :S, thats the problem :S, and the wipe is not possible with the error of device not found, because the big problem is that I cant complete the step2, it said to me: Device not found, I creat the goldcard in so many times, but I dont know if the goldcard is ok, i thing so...

Thank u very much

I'm trying again, but there is a thing that i think is wrong for me...

When the setp2 is completed, at the recovery menu, the tutorial says that enter the "wipe" option, and choose to install zip from sd card, but that option isn't in wipe! when i enter wipe option that is what i see:

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

wipe dalvik-cache

wipe SD:ext partition

wipe battery stats

wipe rotate settings

i don't see anything that tells the tutorial! maybe thats my problem, i went directly to the option that says "flash zip from sdcard" because i don't see that in the wipe option...

any suggestions?

Regards

Frankt , you must go back to previous menu with VOLUME DOWN

i know, but in the page 1 says that i must go to WIPE option, and then choose the option of flash zip from sd card, but isn't in the wipe option, is in the main screen, so in wipe i don't have to do anything?

it's the second time i do this, because if I quit the goldcard the root permissions don't work for me... i don't know what i have to do

Hello,

First of all thank you for that guide that really helped us.

Currently I'm encountering problem with network in France and with HTC Sync software. I have searched for about 3 hours on Google and i can't find a way to unroot HTC Legend

When i try to use 1.23.405.1 RUU i got bootloader error 140

Does someone has an idea to unroot HTC Legend ? I would like to go back to 1.23.405.1 and just do OTA without root !

Currently my HTC Legend is rooted with 1.31.405.4

( I have downloaded RUU_Legend_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.31.707.2_Radio_47.26.35.04_7.05.35.26L_release_121965_

igned.exe but i have a doubt about that RUU and about French language)

@Franck , just wipe data and go back to previous menu and flash from SD that's all :P

@Revolution : i don't think downgrade is possible ( not sure )

@Tim : you use file in #1 post ( R3 fixed wifi bug, so check the name of the file you had downloaded ) ? try to make root process again.

May not be the best solution but try to set your network to WCDMA only instead of preferred, provided your 3g network is sufficient, works for me

hi paul & everyone,

im successfully rooted the legend but im quite curious about this phase by paul:

The root process will...

flash your device with a new, generic 1.31 series based ROM that has Superuser access

when i go in to the "superuser permission" in my phone it shows blank black screen...

what is this means? is this what it suppose to be? and i cant click the accessible in the setting menu either.

sorry noob here.. ^^

thx for the savier.. :P
