X10 toast SGA when it comes to hardware specs.

But I guess because its a bit old by now there ain't much developers left to support it.

And in my opinion, an high-end Android phone without dev-support is worse than one that have mid-class spec but with good dev-support. (take LG P500 as an example) :D
[HTC Sensation] Mad_Wolf:
Hello all,

I have a problem with the sensation's email client. For example I cannot download(save) any attachment. I can open it but cannot save it. Is there any option or should I have to wait for an update

Dont tell me to open the file and then save it please
[HTC Sensation] Firefall!:
There's no direct way, but the attachments are automatically saved to the folder downloads on your SD card. Yuu can use a file manager to move them from there, or simply access them from there. I don't know your goal.
[HTC Sensation] Mad_Wolf:
ok let me tell you that way...

Today I recieved an email from my boss (excel attachment zipped by rar)

The rar cannot be opened by any software. You can open it unless its saved.

I downloaded the file from the browser and I could open it but its a long process...
[HTC Sensation] Mad_Wolf:
Any advice ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Hi guys,

I've been looking fruitlessly for an FAQ where the following stuff is described:

- discussion of the different governors (smartass/smoothass/performance/...)

- discussion of the methods for overclocking (is NoFrills the only/preferred way to set overclocking, or are there better tools?)

thanks for pointing me in the right direction...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Hugo Pires:
Hi Drythe,

I don't know if there's a FAQ around here for that. As far as OC apps are concerned I've only used SetCPU which is free for download at its XDA thread. I guess NoFrills does the same as SetCPU but I've never tried it out as I never needed to. If you're using CM7 and you have CM's submenu under settings you can even set there the min/max CPU frequencies, the governor and the set-on-boot option. That's the standard options. SetCPU also gives you the possibility of defining min/max/governor profiles for a number of different scenarios (battery percentage or temperature;screen on/off, etc.) As for a way of setting the OC, any one of them is enough and none will give you better OC per se, of course :p

Choose the one you like the most and use it, it won't make a difference on the OC.

About the governors, some of them are self-explanatory (conservative, powersave, performance,...), some of them may not be. You'd be better off googling for the specific governor you want to know about and reading some results about it.

If you have the time and compile that information into a new thread, the better.

Happy OCing!

Cheers!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Arjen:
And when you do, please post in relevant section (not dev ;))
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Yes yes yes...

By the way, Smoothass appears to be a very elusive target. I'm using it but couldn't find any info ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Hugo Pires:
Smoothass is an improved smartass. The way it scales between the frequencies was changed but mantains the smartass original concept. From what I reckon, smoothass is the advisable one to use.

Cheers.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] partalga:
is smoothass an improved smartass like said above? :D

[XPERIA X10 General] hassaan123:
Hello ,

I have a galaxy ace. Due to its low dev support i am considering of moving to x10. Would it be a good change? And can you let me know about the problems with x10 whici i should keep in mind when upgrading??
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Dual-touch fails, but SE Brazil said we'll get 4 points multitouch with Gingerbread update just like on the Arc etc...
[XPERIA X10 General] zodiac100:
If you can find a cheap x10 say for about £100 or less then go for it. It will soon be upgraded to gingerbread and is a superior phone to the ace by far.

With respect to it's negative points, low in call volume, no true multi touch, 65k colors, very laggy at times, below average RAM when compared to other phones in it's class. With any luck some of these negatives will at least be improved if not fully addressed with the upcoming update.
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
I don't have any problems with low in call volume. It's to loud for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] zodiac100:
Well mine is ****ing crap. I can barely hear anything when outside or in a crowded environment. It's a complaint many x10 users have expressed and by now it should be clear to all that it's a real problem even if you are one of the lucky ones who don't have this problem.
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
The buggy dual touch is my one real complaint since I like to play games.. New custom kernels have made the in call volume better.

Another thing is there isn't much of a dev community at all, so don't expect to do much modding compared to other android phones.

Only get it if it's really cheap imo... Though with the update coming, who knows it might go from an ok phone to a good one?
[XPERIA X10 General] shahkam:
I never had low incall volume My carrier is rogers and this is my 3rd x10 i think it depends where you guys located at..

Sent From My X10!
[XPERIA X10 General] iain26:

[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Uhm, x10 has much development compared to some other (similair/bootloader unlocked) devices ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] hassaan123:
Is there working 2.3 rom for x10? What about custom roms??
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
We'll soon have fully working Gingerbread ROMS. Stock, CM7 or MIUI. Everything that is Gingerbread will be working!
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
not at all...

go look at other forums on here,

Even much older android phones.

The development here is nothing compared to almost all other android phones.

I'm not saying that is a huge issue, especially considering most end users don't care about this. It is definitely the truth though. Even ask devs on here their opinion on this. Our community is not nearly as active as most other androids
[XPERIA X10 General] hassaan123:
For how much are you guys waiting? So far multi touch not working at all?

I bought galaxy ace for around 270 dollars. Should exchange with a used x10?
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
It works great for pinch zooming, but will be better with GB update. But it isn't officially confirmed on their blog.
[XPERIA X10 General] Flo95:
Don't know where, but SE said the X10 will just get 2.3.3 and not 16 million colors or 4 finger mt.

A quote is on the front side of se-nse.com I guess
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
I wouldn't trust to much on that because he doesn't know everything about the software!
[XPERIA X10 General] hassaan123:
Hows the battery life? And can it run hd games?
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
the battery life is decent, typical for a smartphone lasts about a day.

You can run hd games, but only on custom roms as far as i know.

With the dual touch bug, many of them are painful to try and play too.

I'm using wolfbreak's rom, and there have only been 1 or 2 gameloft games I couldn't find versions of to work
[XPERIA X10 General] rtblittlebrown:
You can run plenty of hd. Games and there are about 6 or 7 gloat working games
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
Many only run on 2.2 and up though was what I meant.
[XPERIA X10 General] rtblittlebrown:
Yeah I know But you can. Find many on 2. 1 only. A few that wont
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
ahh cool..

I couldn't imagine being back on a 2.1 rom after using wolfbreaks froyo lol
[XPERIA X10 General] rtblittlebrown:
I thought for a while and was stuck between flash app 2 SD speed on 2. 2 Vs full functionality and stability on 2. 1

Ewjets Rom works great and with custom kernel its ppretty. Skyfire. Can pull up an okay number of flash videos. Link. 2SD allows apps on the SD card .lately my phones been very unstable so I switched

Please excuse the grammatical errors. I have a horrible keyboard
[XPERIA X10 General] keijames:
Samsung ACE has gingerbread 2.3.4 offical ROM, multi touch screen etc.

I own X10, now upgrade to Samsung Galaxy S2. My wife has Galaxy ACE run 2.3.4 gingerbread, using very much happy.

To ME : it will be a downgrade from ACE to X10. (2.1).
[XPERIA X10 General] egyptshun:
they confirmed no improvements to dual touch..............
[XPERIA X10 General] javagreen:
Personally I believe it'll be an upgrade. If the lack of real multi-touch [atleast as of now] and a slightly problematic in-call volume doesn't bother you, then go for it!
[XPERIA X10 General] hassaan123:
Well finally decided to stay with the ace

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
Yes, it'll be 4.0, and the 18 month policy is that all android phones, put out by google with certain carriers and manufacturers(samsprint being two of them) to support phones with updates for the first 18 months after it is released. It is not known whether this applies to phones that were already out(epic, evo, nexus 1, etc) or if phones from that point forward.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony45x220:
Put out by google means only pure google phones like the nexus line?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogl:
Yesterday, everything was working fine. I decided to do a reboot of my DHD, just because I haven't done it in a long time. When it succesfully rebooted, i tried to enter my SIM code. Touchscreen wasn't responding. I tried to reboot it again by taking the battery out, but touchscreen wasn't responding. So, I took the SIM card out and tried to reboot it, no success with the touchscreen. Today i took of my previous system (sense 3.0, with RCMIX3D) and installed a new one - Virtous unity 1.2.7.0 - no success again. I didn't have my DHD exposed to sun, I didn't drop it, it worked perfectly fine, untill i rebooted it. I want to send it back, for them to repair it, but I can't unroot it without my touchscreen working.

HELP!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drpsyko:
I had once encountered unresponsive touchscreen before, but that was caused by some app that clashed with my touchscreen program.

Since you have flashed a new rom, I assume that you have full wipe as well? If the problem persist, I bet it is a hardware problem and you have to unroot using adb then.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:
Do the 4 "hardware" buttons work when you're in recovery?

Cwm 3.x + supports those buttons to navigate thru the menu.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogl:
all of the buttons work normally in recovery. i formatted the sd card and loaded the system again, but no difference, touchscreen still isn't working. i will probably have to unroot it and send it to repair.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:
If the buttons work, there is no issue with the digitizer. At least no hardware issue since the digitizer for the buttons and the screen itself is the same.

Format system, format data, install a new rom and try if it works.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Agreed, there has to be some conflict, when you format these partitions, make sure to do it manually from mounts and storage menu and not using full-wipe.zip

You might also have to mount the partitions before formatting them depending on your recovery version.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze599:
I think you misunderstood. By full wipe we mean to not wipe the SD card but wipe the phones internal partitions.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miHah:
i think he ment the 3 hardware buttons (volume up, volume down and power button) and not the Menu, home, back and search buttons.

Otherwise, how to test those "touch hardware" buttons anyway?

and yes, he wiped the system cache and data parts, afterwards he just tried with sd card cuz nothing seemed to be helping, i kinda led him through everything..

i have bought a 3 wire + ground connector and then splitted it into mic. and speaker connectors, so that it can be connected to the comp.

- i tried my nokia 5230 headset. everything worked perfectly. sound was stereo and mic was working.

- i tried lg headset. sound was mono and mic. was working

- now i kept the headset button pressed and tested. sound became stereo now, mic stopped working but volume in left speaker was less than that in right speaker. is it because the button is located on the left speaker wire?

well, is the headset provided with p500 a non standard one, unlike the nokia headset?

and how do i make it work in PC?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniflight:
Hi, I am deciding to buy this phone for cheap at a local site and reason the seller is selling the phone cheap as follows:

"Great condition, always used a silicone case and a Martin Fields Screen protector was put on since day one. The reason why I'm selling this really cheap is that I screwed up and deleted the /efs folder while doing the whole custom ROM flashing. It contains the IMEI so now its stuck to a generic IMEI of 004999010640000. Everything is working: phone is working, internet is working, tethering (USB and WiFi) is working. I didn't even notice that the IMEI changed until I plugged it in to KIES and it didn't recognize it since it changed IMEI, apparently while looking it changed on mid June and I just found out last week/weekend. You can definitely flash it using Odin to get the latest 2.3.4.

Its just that the IMEI changed to a generic one, the only way that I can find out how to change it to its original one is to send it to the UK (bought it at handtec.co.uk) to have it reflashed via Regenersis.com (Samsung UK's outsourced repair center), I contacted them and they can't tell me how much it would costs to have it reflashed so instead of sending it all the way there I just decided to sell it. I'll throw in a red samsung case and a North American charger (it came with a UK adapter). "

I am wondering if anyone know how to fix it rather than shipping all the way to UK.

Also technically speaking are there any problems of using a generic IMEI? Like will it get banned/blocked/stop working and stuff like that.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
The backup your EFS thread in the Dev section may have some clues .

Flashing a stock firmware via Odin has for some recovered the IMEI .

Would guess that phone will not work on another network as network will not accept IMEI .

[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
ok thanks for the info
[Galaxy S II General] JupiterdroidXDA:
If the radio has been partially flashed and stopped mid flash i think that corrupts the baseband with no return. I remember that the only real way to brick a Nexus was to stop the flash process while the baseband was being wrote to.

And yes samsung would be obliged to give you a new phone or repair the damage caused if Kies is the culprit;)
[Galaxy S II General] NIK516:
Yeh kies is not very good, I've had many time outs.

If you are worried about flashing via odin don't be you can get official Rom to flash via odin.

Yeah u r right,,,kies dont even work anymore,,,whenever i try to update,it just download the firmware and just before the flashing process a message pop up saying "FirmwareUpdate has been stopped",,,its damn irritating,,,i guess it doesnt work on Win 7...

But i wanted to ask something for a while,,,i see some people here are just "obsessed" with flashing firmwares and roms now and then :D ,,,,i wonder that isnt it a bit tiring to install all those apps again and again,,i mean i know google restores ur apps,,,but what about those which are ummm cracked?? (i kinda have alot of cracked games :o i bought only a few)...

Atleast with a Kies update all ur apps remain secure...
