I'm pretty sure CM7 supports all this already. I have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard at home, and a HDMI cable.

Essentially what you do is lower the DPI setting to give you a Desktop-like resolution, then on a monitor it runs just like a basic Linux distro. A good email and office application, browser, etc. Basic stuff.

(FYI-This kind of stuff is why I wanted a separate power/HDMI port)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] briandresstoyota:
A few questions. Is the support native to the rom? I.E. are there any third party apps needed to make this work like blueinput or blukeyboard jp etc. Also, with the mouse connected, do we get a pointer icon? I use LCD Density Changer currently. Running my phone at 200 as opposed to the default 240. I like that setting even for daily use. much more screen real estate. And also, what keyboard and mouse are you using?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
for peeps that dont have a pc, or cant afford one, or theres is too slow? lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] briandresstoyota:
Yes yes yes. My home PC is a netbook from 2009. Its slow and doesnt stream video nearly as well as my g2x. I dropped 300 on my pohone, dont play hardcore pc games, so im not feeling like buying a newer one. id much rather use my phone as my pc. the portability of it is an added feature as it allows me to easily take my work home. Why someone would not want this functionality is beyond me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea i feel ya, my pc is great also have a laptop, but yes for the peeps that dont have a netbook or computer , to slow on what they have, or moneys tight...i get the idea and its pretty cool;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I'm pretty sure CM has native mouse and keyboard support. I haven't linked up a BT Mouse but I do know people that have before. But, yes, the mouse will give you a cursor.

I'm thinking it is as simple as syncing up your mouse/keyboard and plugging in the HDMI cable to a monitor. Changing the Density is optional and for personal preference only.

A helpful app would be one which detected the HDMI connection and adjusted the density accordingly (automatically)... replacing the current values when disconnected.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] briandresstoyota:
auto density would be huge but i dont think possible yet as all the apps available require a reboot after settings change. thats why i just plan to run at 200. nice compromise and i dont have to switch

hey everyone

i have rooted my phone and installed cyanongen mod7, the fact is that i followed the noobprrof tutorial, and as he stated i partitioned my sd card, i left 1 gb ( its a 4gb memory now its divided to 3 and 1 ), but i didnt know where did it go and why i did partition my sd card, i thought it would add up to internal memory but it didnt...

please can anyone tell me whats the purpose of paritioning it ?? and how can i let apps get installed on this paritioned part if its purpose is so...

thanks in advance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
It's for a2sd, it doesn't add up in internal memory, if you want to check if it's there download quick sytem info from the market, it's purpose is to store apps on your sd(mainly, there's always some data left.) for example when i had stock 2.2 froyo on my desire non rooted, i couldn't have more than 165-170 apps, now i have 379;) and ext is also for the rom itself, like a sense rom doesn't fit totally on the system partion, so the part which doesn't fit is on your sd;)

Hope you understand it
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salahzantout:
thank u, i actually understood wut ur saying

for instance, i have downloaded games and stuff, now the phone says that the phonememory is on low storage, i still have like 30 mb... i tend to move apps from phone to sd card...

incase all internal memory is used will it conitinue installing on the 1gb i have paritioned... and is it just a notification that doesnt effect anything...

i also would like to ask if i can i can automatically download & install the apps from the market on the sd card...

thanks again

ps: i checked the system info and yes it is there... a2sd 0.96gb and 0.9gb free
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
It's not just like that;)

If you install an app for instance google earth, it's around 24mb, 300-400kb will stay on your phone and the rest will go to that partition automatically, although some apps like this iBeer i installed is fully on sd, it depends, but if you're low on memory just move some apps manually to your sd(this doesn't make them move to the ext but fat32 partition(the part that windows can see). If you just insert a SD and applt android's app2sd not a lot of the app will go to the sd, on the other hand the a2sd implied in rom's doesn't give you limitless place till you sd is full. If you want that apply data2sd, that adds to the internal memory as you thought;)

the max apps you can put on your desire with a2sd is max 400 i think, as i can't move any app manually to sd, and i have 35mb left with 379 apps;)

hope u understand it even better now:P
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salahzantout:
ok i did move the apps 2 sdcard, but they are moved to the 3gb partition and not the 1gb partition which i cant see, i only want to know what is the purpose of this 1gb that i made due to the tutorial... since i cant move apps to it or even put files on via usb ( as music and stuff )... then why is it created... ??

ps : the 1 gb is ext4 the 3gb is the fat32

i really wish there was some thread explaining all , maybe i would have let ur life easier hehe, im sory but im new on android...

thanks again
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amraving:
What did you use to create the 1gb partition? Did you use something like mini partition .. under windows?

I had a hell of a time trying to get it to work this way (if you did) the solution i found was to get the gparted live cd (google it) and run the partitioning wizard on that and the auto apps2sd will work.

The point of doing it is that some roms need more space than the desire has, I'm using insert coin and it needs a proparly formatted ext3 to work to fit the whole rom onto the phone.

Have you checked using quick system info to see if the a2sd storage is being recognised?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salahzantout:
hey amriving

actually i did divide my sd card with gparted, everythings going great, but the fact that i cant use the 1000 mb ext2 partition (app2sd) is wut im asking about... (total of 4gb memory)

i mean when i move the apps to sd card they go to the 3gb fat32 space i have, and not the 1gb i partitioned...

so what i want to know is what is the purpose of this (app2sd) 1gb ext2 partition, how can i use it

i checked the system info and i found that there is 0.96gb of the app2sd partition and there is free 0.9 gb,

i have cyanogen mod7 rom

and thanks for the reply
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
Don't move it to sd, i think you didn't understood me, it does it automatically, just install a app, look at it's size, then delete it, you'll see that not that size went away from your memory but much less;)

You can't use it through windows, only if you have linux you'll be able to see inside the ext;) also with root explorer( go to recovery and then mounts then press mount EXT;) )

And they go to the 1GB partition. There will be an android.secure in your sd with apps, but if it wouldn't work, i wouldn't have 55mb android.secure with 390 apps now!:P and just 100mb free on 1.4GB ext;):), Just don't question this anymore, download 100 apps, you'll see it very well then;) if you don't then you obviously have a problem;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salahzantout:
thanks everyone

android.secure is on 3gb fat32 not the 1 gb ext...

i also went to recovery its on mount sd ext...

guys what i want to know is why when moving the apps to sdcard, they are going to 3gb fat32 partition instead of 1gb ext4 partition...

is nt it supposed to go to 1gb ext4 partition ?! which is the reason every android user is doing for ... ?

i have checked the ap2sd and yes it is there

android.secure file is in 3gb partition not the 1gb ext4 partition
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
No no you didn't understand me, look normally with 160 apps would your phone memory be full, and your android.secure(on the 3gb partition) be large, now it shouldn't be very big anymore, because for example city story is 23mb, 1mb on phone memory and 22 on ext. normally this would be 5-10 mb on phone memory and remainder on the 3gb(fat32 partition) now this is most of the times divided over the 3 or just in ext and phone memory, and the main reason is a lot of the app goes on the ext;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asaf400:
answer

F*S Even i, a noob understood it 3 times allready..

btw this answers my final question here

listen(more like read), i'll try to resimplify the answer for you, think of an android app as a windows app.

a windows app is Commonly installed in 3 - yes THREE seprate location at once!

1. Main Program Files - C:\program files\<APP NAME HERE>

this contains all the app's inner working, modules, GUI, sound, pictures and stuff - most of the app is located here so this folder is 'heavy'

2. appdata - C:\Users\<USER NAME HERE>\appdata\<Local \ Roaming>\<APP NAME HERE>

this may contain any setting, saves, projects, and temp files for the app to use.

so only some parts make it here - litewight but still takes up space..

3. Registry - run>regedit.exe

this is sort of a log file for all windows operation, installaions, apps location and sometimes even app settings

again litewight but takes place..

SAME WITH ANDROID - sort of..

an android app contains Resource Data - like program files, the 'exeutable', settings, modules, critical data for the exeutable and more..

and so when you use the traditional APPS2SD that comes Froyo+ ( settings>apps>google earth>move to SD/PHONE )

all the non-critical data and resources move to the SD fat32 patition.

all the remaining critical data, 'exeutable' and stuff remain on the internal memory which still takes up valuable internal space, that's where a2sd+ comes in, as mentioned before, a2sd+ again moves to rest of the remaining appdata to the ext, and only tiny critical part of the app remains on the internal memory - therefor you get to install many apps until you internal memory fills up or the ext fills up, this time only the absolute critical app files that cant be moved to the ext OR the fat32..

as TopGear63z said:

data2sd extends your internal storage..

a2sd+ lets you install more aps

EXPERTS: Please verify my answer as i am also a noob and this is my understanding on the subject, i maybe very wrong or very right :P

PS: Why double post

making sd-ext is for ROMs which uses A2SD and it installs apps directly to that sd-ext. it's on sd card don't worry and those partitions are not visible in windows, only in linux.

ok so most of the time when i move apps to sdcard the 3gb partition's free space decreases and not the 1gb partition...

1gb partition is the ext4

3gb is the fat32

isnt it supposed that the 1gb partition that decreases in free space ??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
Titanium backup shows you a split - system rom, internal, sd card, sd ext ....

Look at that to see if your ext is working properly - yes is should decrease!

No need to 'move' apps to sd - its auto

Does your rom suport ext 4?? if not start again with ext 3!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
CM7 does support ext4 right, don't know i use IC, but what you said about titanium backup is wrong, sometimes it doesn't say how much ext. there's. Quick System Info does although;)

Question for people who switched from Evo 4G to Evo 3D.

Is anyone else noticing markedly weaker phone/3G signal strength as compared to their old 4G?

I am having horrible reception problems. I have to sit on a window sill to get reception at my apartment where my Evo 4g got atleast one bar. Driving on a major highway here in Rochester NY, l watched my phone have one or no bars all the way into downtown. Roaming has been turning on and off.

Went to Sprint Store and the Rf tested my phone and said everything was fine, but my phone still seems to bounce around signal strength wise and usually ends up with one bar or less in areas where I have never had reception problems before.

As for 3G, it was running really, really slow until I called sprint and did a factory reset which has seemed to fix the problem. I'll know later if it fixed the signal strenth problem as well.

PLEASE RATE THESE IN MARKET..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RobWoodall:
This may have been addressed, but a search didn't reveal anything exactly like this. Please bear in mind that I'm an Android newbie!

I bought the Incredible 2 last Thursday. No rooting, nothing weird, still mostly stock. This morning it's running very slow, screen transitions jerky, etc. and even text based email takes minutes to open. I messed around in settings, and notice that Mail (com.htc.android.mail) is using 48% of my battery, more than twice what the screen is using! I force close, and the phone speeds right up, lag is gone, screen transitions smooth but, minutes later, Mail comes back on line and the phone goes to crap.

I've used more that 1/2 my battery in two hours. I notice that the uptime is 1 hr 58 minutes, and the awake time is 1 hr 44 minutes, so I assume that the mail app is also preventing the phone from sleeping.

Any advise will be greatly appreciated!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] devator22:
This may sound obvious, but did you try resetting your phone? Turn fastboot off (settings > applications > click fastboot so it is unchecked) then kill mail, and before it has a chance to restart hold the power button, then shut down. The restart option might work, but for things like this I prefer a good old fashioned power down, power up. Anyways, power your phone back on by pushing the power button for two seconds or so. Then see how it goes. This is an error that I have not heard about, but a reset is a universal problem solver. If it doesn't work, tell us what kind of email accounts you have set up (pop, imap, exchange) and how many, and also the settings for checking the mail.

Hopefully the restart will fix it though.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RobWoodall:
Thanks! My limited Android knowledge told me to try a restart, but I actually didn't know how on the Incredible 2!!

Anyway, the problem went away for a couple hours, then came back!

I use a POP server for my work email, and gmail for personal. I really don't understand this, as nothing has changed since yesterday, but the phone has slowed to a crawl!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
Try a third party email app. I don't know of any offhand as I only use gmail on my phone. My gmail account checks my imap account on another host so it's all together, and I can distinguish which account is which on the emails through gmail tags.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bradsinram:
Umm I think this will require a factory reset, because you can't uninstall stock mail nor freeze it without root
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] devator22:
You can temp root, and freeze the stock mail app if that is the way you decide to go. Instructions found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1068544. But that sounds more like something faulty with the software, because like I said, I have never heard of that happening before. I would take it back to Verizon, complain incessantly, and point out that you could have fixed it yourself if the phone had an unlocked bootloader :p

Do you have them set to check mail constantly, push, or are they on a delay? Can you use imap for work instead of pop? I have four accounts set up on mine, including an exchange, and three imap accounts. The fact that it just started happening leads me to believe something broke in the system, though. A factory reset and re-flash may indeed fix the problem. Also, do you have good 3g coverage most of the day? Check your time without signal under battery status in settings. Click on cell standby and it should give it to you. Or are you using wifi most of the day?

Sorry for the rambling questions, just writing stuff out as I think of it. Trying to narrow down what the problem could be.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RobWoodall:
Thanks, again.

I'm using the mail settings that the school requires, so can't change them. Currently set only to update when the app is opened.

I generally get good cellular reception at work, and I have wifi as well. I've been trying it with or without wifi today, with no changes. I'll try a reset and see if that helps.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
I just mentioned trying another app because I don't see these problems and I do not have the stock mail app configured in any way.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bradsinram:
Factory reset should probably fix it
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] InkedRoughNeck:
I've had the Inc 1 and now the two. I've always turned off the (auto sync) this would require yyou to open your mail and manually refresh or of you use the sync all widget it works that was as well. Seems to save a ton of battery only drawback being you have to manually check it. Ie. No mail notifications. Just a thought maybe you want to give it a shot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RobWoodall:
Thanks, everyone. Using a combination of all your advise, the problem is resolved. I factory reset the phone, then installed only my gmail account. This worked fine all of yesterday, so I finally got off my butt and learned how to use gmail to read and send my work email last night. That seems to be working well. I'm still getting email notifications, but gmail is only using 3% of my battery, as opposed to the 48% that Android mail was using.

Still don't know what caused the trouble, but I'm very pleased with the solution.

Thanks again!!
