During my time in the plumbers union when I had access to 100% isophopyl alcohol I used it to clean the most unholy gunk off of the tubes underneath heavy chemical sinks where flash memory wafers were produced. Despite its volatility, if used properly I can entirely envision parts being cleaned of oils and grime, let alone water. All you have to do is remove it from the equation, and since alcohol is a non-conductive expectorant I fully expect he was telling the truth.

If you attempt this do not use less than 90%. I do not believe 100% is available to consumers without commercial contacts, so you might be hard pressed to find a gallon jug. God knows, I'd give one of my less favorite toes for a self-renewing gallon of 100% IPA.

Edit: EFB with less wordy reply.

I fixed my power button and q tips but make sure you use 90% isopropyl. If anyone can't ever fix their power button I remember I found an app that re mapped buttons and I used it for my search key until I fixed mine.

Hello, I finally got drivers to work while my EVO was in Diag mode, but it will not show me a com port, here is a screenshot.

I have searched all other categories and can't find anything.

It only shows up as My HTC in device manager, no more HTC DIAG

Please assist in this matter as I would love to connect with CDMA Workshop.

Is there anyway to partition the sd card on the thunderbolt? I have tried 2 different times via clockwork recovery, an both times its failed, resulting in a hangup in recovery.
[Thunderbolt General] RafficaX:
my question is to why you would want to? apps2sd doesnt need the partition anymore. are you gonna use a swap partition? which im not sure will even work on this phone yet. i couldnt say how but curious as to why.

So if it doesn't need partitioning how do you utilize apps2sd

It's been built into Android since froyo got released. It's under manage apps. If internal storage isn't filling up there's no reason to put apps on SD though

[Thunderbolt General] Strife21:
Is it better to just use the move to sd function within froyo or is it better to download app2sd and use that from the market?
[Thunderbolt General] MYxdaUSERNAME:
it's built in to the phone, just try it and find out...
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
As others have stated, you dont need apps2sd on 2.2 roms or higher. It was only needed for 2.1 roms.

It is built into the applications menu. you should see the option to move to sd card. Some apps cant be moved du to their programing and if their are a secured app. Even with apps2sd you might not want to move these (if you could) because with roms, it may cause bad effects to the operation of the app or its widget if that app uses widgets (especially if you use the widget) shouldnt be moved to sd cards as they may start acting up as well and the widget will disappear from the home screen on reboot.

I tried flashing the call recording package that works for Froyo while I was on Gingerbread and the phone wouldnt get past the initial boot screen (I9000).

I also installed "Allcallrecorder" & "Ultimate Voice Recorder" Which I have and use on Froyo and both work perfectly for me on Froyo, but on Gingerbread they both save empty files, so they are not working on Gingerbread. I read that the files we got for froyo came from an Asian rom release for Froyo (China?? not sure I9088??). and we probably won't have call recording for Gingerbread, until Gingerbread is released for that phone and the files extracted and modded for our phones.

Unless....... There is a way to mod the current files... I am not a dev or else I would try myself if I knew what to do, but I don't have a clue what to do. Bounty thread sounds like the way to go, I thought that seemed to work for some other issues posted on XDA. Not sure how that works so I am open to suggestions on how to do it and anyone else who would want to collaborate.

Currently I have flashed back to Froyo for the third or fourth time so I can use the call recording feature. I am using Phoenix Ultimate right now. I have tried Continuum 5, Phoenix Mosaic, MikeyMikes GR11, Stock Gingerbread, and Juwe's Smart Edition 4.1, call recording wouldn't work for me on any of them.

I had a call recorder button on my old Nokia 7650, (1/3rd down on the left side), when I enquired of Nokia as to why it was discontinued they said it was for legal and privacy reasons.

The law as it stands, where I live, requires the person to be notified that they are being recorded, or, and I'm not 100% on this, there must be an intermittent audible tone, warning them.

This would be a very handy app.

Update: I found this under the government guidelines for Australia ....

6.1.1

Except for the extremely limited exceptions referred to in Clause 6.1.4 below, all

parties to a telephone conversation must have actual knowledge that the

conversation will be Monitored in order to avoid contravening the prohibition

against interception set out in the TIA.

6.1.4

The TIA provides for an exception to the prohibition against interception for

Monitoring calls made to designated emergency services numbers (currently

000, 106 and 112). Monitoring calls from any other numbers, whether used for

seeking assistance or raising an alarm or otherwise, are subject to this Guideline.

6.1.5

"Piptones" or "beeps" will not be a sufficient measure to convey to the individual

the knowledge that the conversation is being Monitored.

I need it -

I am on many conference calls throughout the day. The phone system at my office gives me the option to record all sides of the convo. Many ppl use it and before you enter the conference, it states that the call is recorded.

However, when I work remote, I only use my android and am at a huge disadvantage. I'm even thinking of wiring some sort of mp3 recorder into my head-set until something is developed. I wouldn't have a problem telling everyone I"m recording.

Has anyone used a 3rd party hardware to achieve this?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsI9003:
Spy don't need call recording on their phone they have better method to tape into airwaves & record any phone conversation from a distance using modern gadgets.

Why we need call recording is various other reasons such as.

1. Taking Dictation & instruction on phone hence the record requirement.

2. taking note while driving so simply record all calls while driving using script.

3. noting down minutes of the phone meeting (99% of my meeting are over skype or phone)

4. using computers last 15 years I don't have good handwriting so taking notes on paper is good for me but others cant read it giving them audio notes is better.

There can be 100s of reason for having call recording for each of use but not having the option is only 1 reason that's privacy of the person. Call recording has been such a basic feature on so many phones I have used in last 10 years or so.

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 AM ----------

Any recorder which has audio input jack can take the audio in from the headphone jack & record but that's not really practical to lug around 2 gadgets. I would have never bought android based phone if I knew this was a limitation I thought that samsung does not provide any app but I can use 3rd party apps to make call recording.
