Thanks man, I've found that superoneclick earlier, did it, also did the xrecovery process, I've installed the apps2sd and the davlik to sdcache but it doesn't work.. :( it says it was successfully installed but the apps/games still install to my phone memory. :mad:

I've been at this all day. no luck... any more assisstance?
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
i didn't recommend you app2sd,dont know y coz i prefer link2sd..same function,but imho link2sd much better. :D

[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
I tried links2sd, made a partition with my sd card, but when I restarted my phone everything on the sd card was gone, as well as some icons and programs installed on the phone memory dissapeared.. :(
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
what? are u sure?..i'm also a beginner like u..im just follow the ins in link2sd thread..everything works fine for me..did u format ur sd card?..
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
No.. the instructions on the link said that the sdcard doesn't need to be reformatted.

thanks by the way for replying and offering your assistance.
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
did u make backup of ur sd?..no prob..im free rite now :)
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
Yeah I have duplicates of the files on my hard drive, mostly they are apk game files. I'd try again my x8 later, something urgent came up.
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
the programs installed on the phone memory disappeared, and on the menu where they should be located the menu is empty. still I can't figure out why programs don't install in my memory card...
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
it seems like a huge problem..how bout repair it through pc companion?..but everything will be liked out of the box phone.
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
but this is what I did. I factory reset the phone, and I see that it is still rooted. Unfortunately I have to download from the marketplace again. Internet is very slow here. but from here, what do I do to install to memory card? thanks..
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
from what i noe,factory reset only clear your data and didnt touch your rom..if you want start form there..i recommend you to format ur sd card first..but backup all ur data first..use card reader to create the partition..create fat partition first then create ext2 partition..then install link2sd..let say u have 2gb sd..make 1.5gb to fat and balanced goes to ext2 partition..i dont recommend ext3 and ext4 partition..mybe there's is conflit..use MiniTool Partition Wizard to reformat and create the partition..i did it on the first try,everything goes fine.

or maybe u can used fat32 for second partition..when i read at the link2sd thread,fat32 been recognize by all phone..the thread has been updated,i used ext2 partition..and everything works fine till now..
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
im sory if my instruction bricked ur phone..im also a beginner,and am answering ur quest within my range of knowledge..what i've tell you here is what i've test on my phone and it didnt bricked my phone..
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
ok, I'm gonna try that and I'd feedback the results to you.. thanks.
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
good luck and be careful when messing ur phone :D..remember to always backup before start,if anything goes wrong.
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
after lots of trials and errors, I have managed to get the links2sd working. now after I install a game, and I select create link in link2sd, will that automatically be transferred to the sd card?

and should I include the "include devlik cache"?
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
yes,for every application that u install..click create link and yes u should checked that include delvik cache :D..i suggest u to install all app first then create link then reboot ur phone :D
[XPERIA X8 General] nowonanx8:
well, think this is all for now, as the multi-touch feature and froyo are still an uncertainty if they'd ever be available for x8. Thanks kecil for being helpful. may you get positive karma in return. :)

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oohaylima:
There is a guide that a user just made in the general section. Comment on that and see if we can work it out.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
Make sure

1. You are rooted

2. You have BusyBox

3. You have Super User installed.

4. Not using SetCPU or Overclock widget.

After that Install the Pre9 Wifitether APK (attached).

If that doesn't work then flash the new Radio Image for the Hero (also attached as 2.42.02.10.29.zip)

And then flash Kifno's tweaks for Preformance and Network speeds (will double to triple DL and UL). [MP] This tweak is incompatible with SetCPU

disclaimer: I am not liable for anything, and I did not create any of these. Although I have not heard of anything going wrong (when followed correctly). If anything does happen let me know and il do my best to help you.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lows10:
Omg!!! Does this work for the cdma hero cause if I can use it for black ops I will b forever grateful im on cm7

The tether fcs on me?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
I think the PS3 patched Ad-Hoc networking, WifiTethering on the Hero Relies on Ad-Hoc, The Hero doesn't support regular netowrking so i guess we're screwed. If you have a computer in your house you can use USB tether and create a network from your computer via Ethernet, and theneither plug that to the PS3 or to a router to create a "real" network.

[Android Apps and Games] I Am Marino:
In my attempt to learn more about the stuff that goes on, I'm still fairly new to this scene.

So I hear people throwing out these so called Quadrant scores, what exactly are they, what do they test, and is it an indication of how powerful your phone is?

I've heard your ROM, SDCard, and etc influence it, and the higher the score, the better. I hear people throw out scores in the high 1000s, how so?

I just did mine, only got 996.

So....what's up?

Phone and ROM is in sig.
[Android Apps and Games] Dirk:
Synthetic benchmarks are meaningless. Take with a pinch of salt.
[Android Apps and Games] oshizzle1991:
Benchmarks are scores that people throw around in an attempt at proving that their phone is better than someone else's phone. The most popular benchmark is Quadrant Standard Edition. However, even Cyanogen is skeptic of Quadrant, so just take whatever score it shows you with a grain of salt like the guy above me said

[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
^^^ This. What's funny is if you pay attention, you'll see folks say that benchmarks for XYZ were low because it hasn't been updated for that device, or optimized for that device, etc...

Benchmarks should not change based on device, ever. Sure, some devices will not support some benchmarks (say, multi-core processing efficiency for example) but they should for example all rotate a textured object with shading and fog the exact same way.

And IMO if the graphics support changes, example OpenGL 2.0 to 3.0, you create a NEW benchmark, not modify the old. Say suddenly devices have GL that'll render Fog better, you don't update the old benchmark.
[Android Apps and Games] Dirk:
Quadrant in particular seems very inconsistent to me. Consecutive runs on the same device can yield wildly varying results.

Side by side comparisons are also very telling, when devices that score high in Quadrant can be seen to be running visibly slower than devices that score less.
[Android Apps and Games] zeppelinrox:
SmartBench 2011... that will tell you if your tweaks are working or not.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheech92007:
I recently went from a BB to a droid and I want the ringtones and text sounds that are on my SD card to be put on my droid. But I cant find them when I try to set a ringtone.

Any ideas?

Also, I want to find a way to take them off (or copy them) to the phone so I can send them as MMS to friends too.

Im not sure how to do either of these so any and all help would be great!

thanks!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
If you store any MP3 files that you want as ringtones in a folder called /ringtones and any notifications in a folder called /notifications anywhere on your SD card, they will show up in the list of notifications or ringtones. So, you could have folders called ringtones and notifications on the SD card, or you could organize them into /media/ringtones and /media/notifications - any way that you get separate folders called notifications and/or ringtones will work.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheech92007:
I have made a My Documents folder and seperated them into Ringtones and Alerts but when I go to select them, I dont have the option to find them, I can only use Zedge, Music, or Default.

I want to be able to go into that file and select them myself. And also send them to someone else (non smart phone user)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Linux (what Android is based on) is case sensitive and you would have to create two separate folders. One called ringtones and one called notifications. As he said, other than that, you're free to organize them however you wish, but those folder names themselves have to be like that.

If I'm wrong about this, somebody shoot me. :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
Again, this is what I have always done, and it has worked with every ROM.

To the OP, if you have a folder on your SD card called My Documents, create two folders inside that folder - Ringtones and Notifications - and move the ones that you want for each into those folders, or copy into both if you want them for both. Use those exact names, including the plural. As for case sensitivity, I don't think it matters, as I just looked at my SD card and my two folders are called Ringtones and notifications - so it seems to be case-insensitive.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks for letting me know about the case insensitivity in this case, pun intended. To quote someone else recently addressed to me "I learn something new every day." :D

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lurker1126:
Hello XDA friends! I have made a custom back cover for the Samsung Galaxy S 4g and the original Samsung Vibrant. It is a custom job. Every cover is unique since it is done with paint and a few other tricks. Also I can clear coat them if you want. I will sell them each for $20 including shipping to anywhere in the US (add $5 to Canada)

If there is enough interest I can do this in White (as shown below), Blue, Red or Green Post a reply letting me know your interest and which color you would prefer.

Take a look at the pictures below. They look awesome! They are a direct replacement for your current back cover. They do not add any thickness nor change the shape of the phone....and yes, they fit perfectly unlike some aftermarket covers.

Post a reply if you are interested so I can gauge just how many people may want this before I make an order for the blank covers.

PM me and I will send you a Paypal link for the cover. I will see how much interest I get for the first while so be patient and I will keep you updated on shipping dates.

Also take a look at the covers I previously made for the Vibrant. I feel I do good work. I sold a lot of those covers: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959149 If enough people bug me about the carbon fiber covers I can continue making them but will have to do $25 with free shipping. It just takes a lot of work and I was overwhelmed. Also I may start putting clear coat on them if preferred.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
I personally would be interested in one of the white carbon fiber backs. I live in California, USA.. just as a heads up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] andyski101:
What is the texture of these new covers?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lurker1126:
Mostly smooth. You can feel some of the lines and shapes made when I texture these. I may clear coat them though if that is preferred.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Do we pay you via paypal? just curious
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lurker1126:
Yes, everything is done through Paypal
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Okay, private message me info if you want to do a white carbon fiber back. Whenever you're ready or have enough quota that is.

[XPERIA X10 General] blisslove:
I would like to suggest for naming/calling in Development session.

As we all known that Z, J, Trip, Wolfbreak and 28spawn have their own successes.

Z has succeed his stable Froyo 2.2 rom and camera.

J is porting CM7 Gingerbread.

Trip has ported his own rom

Wolfbreak has succeeded in camcorder for 2.2 and his stable rom CM6.1.3 which was based on Froyo 2.2.

28spawn is good at tweaking camera and camcorder qualities.

Can we give clap for them? Yes, we can call them real developers. I am really appreciating their works.

However, I have seen some people are copying sources from others, just changing themes, changing launcher which can get free from Market, a little bit of tweaking and they called/named it to rom/firmware.

Can we give a name such as Changing Launchers or Changing Themes or Updating rather than naming/calling new ROM/Firmware?

Well, I am not a developer. I believed that everyone can understand what I meant.

This thread is just a suggestion.
[XPERIA X10 General] javagreen:
Agree on everything except Trip.

That loser doesn't belong in any section with 'Development' in it's title.
[XPERIA X10 General] blisslove:
That's why I didn't mention "Succeed".
[XPERIA X10 General] -- X10B --:
Ahahahahahahahaa +10
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Wow.

What do you have against him?
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
People are adding a launcher onto someone else's rom and then having the audacity to ask for donations....

As for trip, nice universal radio and fully working gingerbread rom... Wait, those never happened?
[XPERIA X10 General] CMoney87:
People like you are probably the reason he hasnt uploaded anything. Pretty sure Trip was the one to port MiUi and the first to port Arc and other devs have attested that he has provided sources and other assistance. Just because he never fixed every bug in the ROMs he worked on for no compensation in his spare time and then quit posting when everyone started flaming him and his threads were closed. None of the devs is obligated to do any of this work for you. Quit the unnecessary flaming, trip has done more for this community than you ever will. I haven't seen you upload any ROMs be they complete or otherwise. And Im sure if his unified radio is ever released you'll be flashing it just like everyone else. A project like his radio isn't something that can be done overnight especially when you factor in many of the devs are busy with their own lives and work. After seeing the trash you and other ungrateful self inflated asses have posted here I wouldn't freely share my work here if I was him either.
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
I have to agree. Anyone of you who thinks that trip is not competant then please go ahead and build us some roms perhaps you could finish where he left off, i bet a lot of us here will be damn right happy. Trip has already stated his reason for being off most of the time. But you guys still flame him. Sadly this is usually what happens

Dev does things people are happy, devs stops for awhile people either forget him or flame him.

HE DOESNT DO THIS AS A FULL TIME JOB!! even if we crave for some bug fixes or something new from the devs, anyone of them. We must remember that they have their lives just like us and not some guy sitting infront of the com 24 hours 7 days a week just to get your thanks and maybe a few bucks of donation.

As for people calling themselves devs and asking for donation by changing some things and stuff. Well i cannot say it is wrong but donations are based on the satisfaction of the benefactor. So if his tweaks, even if its small, satisfies the benefactor then the donations is fine. Thats the whole point of donations basically. And i believe if they are using other roms they should either link or give credit.
[XPERIA X10 General] kozxmartt:
That may all be true, but I can understand the flaming directed towards him. As I recall, Trip started many projects without successfully completing any. And then being a dev, one should welcome criticism, which Trip did not. Instead he momentarily stopped working on selected projects inorder to "punish" the critics. Can you really blame people for the flaming directed towards him?

I like his ROMs. Just wish that he had completed them.

Edit: I take back everything I had said. With all his latest work, he is an awesome dev!
[XPERIA X10 General] ironjose:
\o/ #WIN xD
[XPERIA X10 General] javagreen:
Without going into the intricacies, try telling that to people who actually donated to "Trip". You two are probably among those, I suspect.

Happy "Trip"ping ;)

Quite the same thing you have against Geohot. ;)

One's a media whore, the other is a farce.
[XPERIA X10 General] tryantar:
No i havent but whether or not he abandoned them because of critics is not the point. Every dev have their own reasons, he may have his own for not completing them. And why should one flame him then? Without him we wouldnt have most of what we have . you may argue u dont use them but others do. He contributed something to the community unlike some flamers who flame but nothing is coming from them in return. Im emphasising on the stuff he did finish. Why look at the wrongs when there are countless possibilities with the rights?
[XPERIA X10 General] bra1n0uk:
I think the trip argument is boring now. Its over with now, so many posts already on the subject.

Shall we all just put it behind us now and move on. We're all grown up, s here.
[XPERIA X10 General] -- X10B --:
If you are a developer you should accept criticism especially bad ones. Big headed devs dont have any place here. This is a community thread right (sharing and everything).

Even forum rules states it.

I remember on trips thread that a member wants to have his source but as i expected trip didnt reply.

Selfish people dont belong here.

Im not a dev right, but all i can give is help others problems that i have encountered and share some solutions.

Triping for ever. Lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] blisslove:
hey guys,

This tread is just for the people who are putting sugar on other developer's succeed and getting donation from people.

And if you can not finish your project, PLEASE don't put on Development session.

So nobody can blame to you.

Cheers!
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Absolutely right, all trip ever did was masked in secrecy, he never openly shared with other devs like J or Z, the ported radio is an example where J is clearly asking Trip for some openness and to share work.

Also I seem to remember he got upset because his links got taken down even though they contained warez.
