    How to find invalid characters in playlist

    I'm having a problem that I think is related to special characters in filenames. I have a playlist with 3599 songs in it and when I sync it with my phone (EVO) all 3599 songs get transfered over, but when I view the playlist within the stock music app or within PowerAmp, they both report only...

    Car charging: Charging (AC) vs (USB)

    I am trying get a car charger that will charge my EVO in fast charge mode (charging (AC)) or whatever t's called. I bought a a griffin 2-port usb car charger. It says it's 1 amp, but I was afraid it would only be 500mA per port. Stupidly, I forgot to bring along my USB cable so I bought one...

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    OK. Thanks for the link. I'm only concerned about taking it back to Sprint because I have the bright spots on my screen like some others have. It isn't a huge deal, but it is annoying. Before I even dug into the bootloader link you posted, I had been playing around with the ROMs and...

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    No problem. I understand people have other things going on in life. I'll check that out. Thanks. One last question, what should I do if I have problems and need to take my phone into Sprint? I RUU's 2.2 and it appeared stock, but the hboot still said S-OFF. Are they likely to notice it...

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    I'm not familiar with busy box, root explorer or the su zip. What will these do for me and will they help with the reboots? I've read up on what busy box and root explorer are, but how will they help with my problem?

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    OK. Now that XDA is back up... here is the root process I followed: [GUIDE] How to root Android 2.2 on the EVO 4G - xda-developers As you can see it's far from the one-click unrevoked root process I see people mention, but it does utilize unrevoked. I continued trying ROM's and kernels, but...

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    What is the file? Also, can you mix-and-match kernels and ROMs?

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    Yah, I'm lost. I never even tried that ROM (CM6). All I know is my phone is now basically unusable and I have no idea why it won't stop rebooting. I've been trying to research how to get back to the .76 bootloader, but so far I haven't had any luck. It doesn't help that a lot of what Google...

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    OK. I read that, but what file do I flash to get back to .76?

    Need help: rooted, custom ROMs = spontaneous reboots

    I've had my EVO since release day and never had any problems with it. Yesterday I decided to root it so I could try some custom ROMs. Ever since, my phone reboots about every 5-20 minutes. I have tried 3 different ROMs: VaelPak v2 BFS8, VirusROM BFS9, and Fresh (don't remember which one) and...

    Sure enough that's what it is. I can't believe I never noticed that before. Thanks!
