[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timjs:
Just a quick followup regarding heat issue's (aka power drain).

A few steps to determine/pindown the issue's resulting in heating up the phone.

1. without sd- and sim-card, the phone should function very nice.

wifi and gps should not warm up your phone excesively.

Your phone should give you a stripe/band of warmth form left to rigth just at the bottom of your screen (with your lips you should feel this band/stroke/stripe of warmth and you will distinctively recongnise a band of warmth and at the middle left side (near the navigation button)you will notice a spot of some what more warmth.

Your cpu is located at that location. Beneath the location where your sd-card is insered, there will be some warmth buildup when you insered a simcard.

2. You now can put an sd-card in your phone and turn it on again, it is advisable to use an sd card wich does not heat up your phone. It is at this point not an issue but when heating up your phone drains more power than necessary. You do the things you have done at step one.. but now you include heavily downloading and "gaming" stress your device.

Depending on the quality of your sd card and the warmth/heat production... your phone will stay cool/warmup a little / or hangs and reboots.

3. So far so good? (phone stays cool)

... then you are ready for step 3; that is removing your sd-card and putting in your sim card... turn on your phone again.. stress it over wifi 3g and gps, maybe play a game.

Your phone will be warmer than before and if it reboots you know your sim card is incompatible or became faulty with the phone.

Probably the sim card has been damaged to much during the last period of time when your phone was getting buggy

due to hardware/sd/sim card overstressing. (the specific electrical impendance's are at the root of the warmth/heating up issues due to the components (hardware/sim/sd) realtions to eachother)

This results in to much current passing trough "it". (the desire really should NOT get HOT when cards are compatible !!)

4. - replace sim card with sim card that does not heat your phone (stand alone)

- replace sd by sd that does not heat your phone (standalone)

Your done, but when all fails your hardware is probably to much damaged.. (wich i find hard to believe in ; knowing what my desire has gone through)

Eventually you can experiment with card combinations but that is a tough(but rewarding) way to approach this issue.

(maybe add some device like an gevy sim of some kind to establish (more) compatibility)

i will soon show you some nice videos of my results
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timjs:
And for all disbelievers.

Enable your PIN1.

HTC has shown in the past that simcard detection can easily fail without a PIN1 enabled. And I am aware of the fact that when a sim detection fails, a 3Volt stress operating level will be placed on the simcard...(and assumably doesn't turn it off )

The end..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulek:
There is something in it. With Sandisk 8GB class 4 sd card, my desire reboot in one or two minutes after entering to google maps. With 4GB class 2 kingston it's ten to fifteen minutes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
My old Desire was rebooting whenever the phone got to 35C. I got a new one from insurance, PVT4, and I'm using the same SD card and SIM, no overheating shutdowns at all. Highest temperature recorded so far has been 46C, which was in direct sunlight and playing music from Shoutcast (sat having beers with friends in the garden).

I'm unable to confirm your findings thus far.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordRyver:
When Im outside I keep my phone in the pocket and I use it just for texting. After some time while texting it restarts and I have to w8 some time until I can turn it on again,but my phone dont feel hot or anything. I rll hate it cuz I need to call or text some1 often and I cant do that because of this. When im at home this dosnt happen. So im just thinking,if I would change my SanDisk card to,let's say kingston,could that help? Also it takes a lot of time to move something to sd card from pc. And while charging,my phone overheats and restarts. Also does that while playing something like "shoot bubbles". It's really strange cuz it didnt used to do that. Im useing crayogen mod. When I flashed it for the first time it was perfect. But after some time it just started to act like that.(happaned with other rom's too) I tryed to wipe and reflash rom but it's just same thing.

Oh BTW be careful if you're gonna paint the buttons. They won't fit back in if you put too many layers on em. If you notice in the final pics I left the area around the buttons unpainted... That's because of all the layers I put on the phone. It makes the phone basically flush with the buttons, you can't feel them and it makes it hard to push them. BE CAREFUL

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolento:
If so, please let me know what I need to do?

I have cifs.ko in system/lib/modules but the app has not been working since 3.2 update.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolento:
Just answering myself in case someone has the same question.

it seems multiple module loading is not working right in the CIFSmanager.

i needed to load cifs.ko and nls_utf8.ko together before mounting my network drives

before Cifsmanager can handle this automatically, but now on honeycomb 3.2, it seems nls_utf8.ko is not getting load

after I loaded that file manually via terminal, all network drives can be mounted.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huzz:
Could you share the steps?

Thanks.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolento:
share the steps to get nls_utf8.ko loaded?

cifsmanager still seems to load cifs.ko fine automatically.

to load nls_utf8.ko before mounting any network drives:

1. Open up a terminal app

2. type: su root (then hit enter)

3. type: insmod /system/lib/modules/nls_utf8.ko

You don't need to do this if you don't have foreign characters in the files on your network drives (cifs.ko by itself will do)

I have been running CM7.1 RC1 off of my SD card without for about three weeks now.

But today, my NC started freezing often. Sometimes it won't even finish loading the home screen. Additionally, when I make any changes (wallpaper, ADW settings, install apps), the changes/apps are not there after I reboot.

If there are any gurus out there who can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IIDeViiNII:
Well I would say your sd-card is getting a bit overwhelmed with all the stuff on it what size brand and class is it?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesourgin:
I have a Class 4 16GB Sandisk uSD.

Under storage settings:

SD is listed as Total Space: 13.31 GB, Free Space: 2.13 GB

Internal Storage Total: .93 GB, Available: 574 MB

Additional storage on /mnt/emmc Total: 1.00 GB, Free: 1.00 GB

I also tried deleting 4.55 GB in files is ES File Explorer. But when I restarted, they came back.

To recap: Freezing often; files I delete come back after restart and files I install disappear after restart.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
I was getting problems like that after any force close happened -- any settings changes I made would just vanish after rebooting. I had reinstalled CM7 a couple of times and that always seemed to fix it, but something always would creep back again. I finally just installed CM7 to emmc and haven't had a problem since.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
Got to agree with this
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesourgin:
I was thinking about that, but since I've been having issues with the screen while plugged in, I wanted to ensure that I don't void the warranty on my NC in case I have to exchange it.

Edit: I also like having the multimedia storybooks to read with the kids.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
I've seen enough anecdotes about SD installs suddenly going bad that I wonder if they're stable in the long run, but not enough to convince me that they're not. My SD install did go bad (more conventionally: force closes and lag), but I was already thinking about moving to eMMC, so I just took the plunge. If anything, I might set up a stock 1.2 SD card down the road.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
While it wouldn't help with dual-booting, you could also keep a microSD card around to revert it to stock if needed. I thought the latest nook app was supposed to support storybooks, but it gave me an "unsupported" error when trying to open an "enhanced" book, so I don't have much personal experience.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
Yeah, it seems like this is an unspoken problem here. I'm not sure how prevalent it is, but when you do mention weird behavior when using an SD card, usually someone will suggest moving to emmc or say they had a similar issue when they were using an SD card as well.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesourgin:
Well, I went ahead and put Phiremod 6.3 on Emmc. No issues yet...

after i try to flash my phone to android ROM via SD card, i think i've brick my HD2

i think i can go to the bootloader( the screen with blue,red,n green colour)

n i can connect to USB (as i see at the bootloader screen with the USB word at the bottom when i connect to my laptop)

after i switch on my phone, it appear this words

"The device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or......." (as the picture i link)

so, is there anyway to solve this problem?

some more info please:

1) how did you try to flash an Android ROM via sd card? Do you have magldr flashed?

2) Do you have HSPL flashed on the device?

Flashing an Android ROM from SD isn't possible from anything but magldr or CWM, so which one did you use?

1. via SD Card, i click on CLRCAD inside the Android folder

2. my bootloader now showing SPL3.03

This is HSPL 4, it allows you to flash to different HSPL/SPL versions:

For flashing Android/WP7 or running Android I'd suggest using that to flash to HSPL 2.08
[HD2 General] kelvinklose:
but i dont see HSPL 4 in the option

i only see

2.08

HSPL 2.08

3.03

HSPL 3.03
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
What Orangekid means it is the fourth released HSPL which is called HSPL 4. You just have to coose which HSPL or SPL version you want to use. If you if you are wanting to put SPL back onto your HD2 then just make sure you flash a version with .0000 at the end.

it takes a while sometimes to get a lock (other times very quick) but once it gets a lock, it takes a lot to get rid of it.

my question is, why can't it get a lock at say 4 sats after turning on gps ? there's enough data there, it would just be inacurate

i'd also like to know if there's a way to force a lock asap as opposed to waiting for a decent level of accuracy
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrej.marinic:
lock does not happen merely because your device can "see" 4 sats. for example, while in a plane at 10k meters, i can see sometimes even 11 sats but there is no chance to get a lock. so i guess there are a lot of factors that influence getting a lock.

How/where can you see the number of sats your GPS has locked on? I never found the option on my phone...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
yea, and my desire got a lock on flights to cuba and canada.

afaik, it should be able to get a lock based on seeing a few sats. gps is based around the time it takes for a signal from a sat to reach your phone and comparing the difference between the connection time of each sat the phone can see right?

even with 4 sats, there should be "some" data. it would be ranging to a few hundred meters but should still have something.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
what app do you use? pretty much everything i've seen/used tells you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjtj4444:
Your question is not about SGS2 but about the GPS-system.

In order to calculate position the receiver needs certain information, and it takes some time to send out this data. The data rate from a satellite is only 50 bit/s!! (yes, I mean only fifty single bits per second...).

And when you only see 3 or 4 satellites, then it is often satellites that are visible in the same area of the sky, and that makes it difficult to calculate the position.

Here are some information how this works:
