[Q] Open camera when phone off not working? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey when i was playing with the evo in the sprint store i turned off the phone(just locked the phone) but i was able to push the camera button to open up camera apk.....i just realized that its not working is it because im rooted now and is not on this rom i really miss that feature?

I'm not rooted and that doesn't work. I think it would suck if that did work your phone would turn on in your pocket?

Agreed, I wouldn't want that. However, when I have my phone on the home screen, logged in and press the camera button it doesn't activate my camera. I have to go to the app to activate it. Any ideas on how to turn the camera on when the phone is on by using the camera button?
Edit: I feel like an idiot. You simply have to hold down the camera button for a few seconds to get it to activate.

[Q] Lost wimax keys

Does anyone know how to check for the Wimax RSA keys on the EVO 3D? The command grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0 doesn't work, nor does the wimax key checker app by joeykrim.
I can connect but I can't seem to get any data at all.
Are you in the boston area by chance? There is a 4g outage in the area and it will do exactly that. Connect to 4g but never pull any data down. There is thread in the general section regarding this issue. Best place to go to see the most up to date excuses given by sprint. Lol

I'm in North Providence so I guess it could be all a part of the same issue. Sucks too cause this is driving me more and more towards Verizon.
To check if your keys are fine, use jieykrims Wimax key checker app.

It doesn't seem to work on the 3D and the market won't show it.

Yea, I tested it out on the EVO 3D ..think the app is still sitting on my phone from testing, but never saw anybody lose their keys on the EVO 3D yet.
Also, seems the keys are not easily accessible, as they were on the EVO. I don't think we'll have any problems on the EVO 3D with WiMAX keys.
I usually am on the front lines for issues so I'll keep watching but 7 months so far and no wimax key issues is a good sign I figure!
Thanks for the support!
4g is back up in my area so it was Sprint and not my phone. Please close this thread.

HTC 3d.. No sound?

HTC I bought off CL has no sound. Guy flashed it on cricket. I tried flashing back to stock rom and relocked the phone but no avail. No sound when plugging in headphones either, but icon shows up. Any suggestions?
Were you told anything about it?

I feel your volume buttons are jacked up take off the back cover and use a pen or something to push the lil buttons and see if that works if so the back cover needs replacing.

Don't think it's the volume button. I used volume + app to turn the system volume all the way up

Annoying on screen menu button.

Is there a way to disable this from apps and whatnot? (I dont know if this has been covered). I don't like it because it covers up the arrow keys.

Specifically I did the following and am happy:
1. rooted with RegawMOD EVO 4G LTE Rooter x64 Note: use x86 if it applies to your PC.
2. flashed STOCK WITH GOODIES 1.44
3. flashed Menu Remapping For Stock with Goodies Working.zip
for extra fun I threw in
4. Dual Core Mod
5. HotSpot Mod
Very Happy with this setup.
BBO
When I first had this phone I absolutely hated the menu button. I've since then rooted and unlocked.

Well I probably would have rooted by now but I have 1 desktop computer with the blue screen of death and my laptops USB ports dont work for some reason. So until I get off my lazy ass and buy another computer THAT WILL NOT BE A WINDOWS! I'm stuck.

Open the weather app, select menu and settings.....there should be a setting for weather alerts.

Root your phone on your phone?

Don't know if it's a dumb question of not. I don't have a computer to root my phone. I remember on the OG EVO you could run Unrevoked on your phone and it would work i believe. Truthfully the only reason I want root access right now is for tethering purposes when lte becomes available. Thanks.

As far as I'm aware, the utilities that are available right now will only run on Windows or Linux. I don't think you're able to manually HTC dev unlock from your phone either since I believe some of it has to be done outside of the os where you wouldn't have access to your browser. Even if you can dev unlock from the phone, I'm not sure how you would flash a recovery without a pc...

You cant do it from your phone at this time.
You need access to a computer
Being able to get root access on the device would be a large security hole and would be patched as soon as it was found (Hence why the old methods on the OG EVO dont work anymore)
