Hello...

i go to Settings -> Storage... and i unmount de sd card.

Then it activates the option to delete sd card. It isnt any option called format SD or something like that.

I have backup all my files to my pc hard drive ( cut & paste). So my sd card is empty. To delete the sd card ( 8 gb capacity) it takes 2-3 seconds.

Its that ok ?

Would you recommend me to format the sd card ? If so how ?

Thanks in advance
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwarkje:
It's ok to format your card. Try to put it into an adapter an connect that to your pc, and format it from Windows (FAT32 is ok).

After that it should function as new....!

Good luck, greetz,

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timchew:
connect your phone with the usb to the computer. Mount the SD card and after that you should see your SD drive in the computer (under my computer). Right click on the icon of the SD drive and then click format and click quick format.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejgutierrez:
Thanks... but you are telling me how to format the sd card in the pc... thats right...

My first doubt was if i had already formatted the sd card or if its a bug or a translation mistake in ginger bread.

When i unmount the sd card it lit the option "Borrar tarjeta almacenamiento" ( Delete sd card in english), and it doesnt appear any "Formatear tarjeta" ( format sd card in english).

Everybody has the same ? Or do you have the two options to delete and format the sd card ?

Thanks again.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fawadmir:
There is only one option. That is to format the SD Card. I think its a translation mistake. Make a backup of your SD Card and then use the delete/format option.
[HTC EVO 3D] DonutGrunt:
Hey guys, it's weird venturing to this section of XDA :D

I've had my EVO 4G since launch, it's still going strong with me as of today, and I gotta say I adore it. The XDA scene for EVO 4G is just amazing, currently using Synergy + Godmode.

But anyways, the 3D has been tempting me this summer and I have a few questions.

1. A customer came into my work with a 3D EVO, and he told me that Sprint gives you $150 credit if you trade it in with the EVO 4G, is this still true? I heard RADIOSHACK does the same thing but only a $100 discount, while I saw in some thread that the shack gave some guy a $175 credit for exchanging his phone.

2. Those of you who have the phone for a while, how's the battery life now? I get about 30-40 hours with moderate usage with the same stock battery that it came with the phone. Started out as only 10 with the 4G :X

3. I see that people have figured out to unlock the bootloader, now that ROM's are starting to be made, do you think the big EVO 4G rom dev's will contribute to making the 3VO as successful?

4. I know the phone has a dual core snapdragon cpu, so how does this compare to the EVO 4G? Are you guys generally happy with performance or do you wish it could be snappier for a dual core machine?

5. What's the camera quality of those 5 MP cameras? 3D, when it comes to the 3D do you guys like to use it often, or is it just a gimmick like the 3DS? Would you say that the performance of the phone is well worth it over the 3D stuffs?

6. Lastly, do you guys enjoy your phone? Especially the ones who switched from the original 4G.

Thank you for your time! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] tes5884:
Too many questions for me to answer all of them properly :-)

However, I love the phone, check out the dev section we already have tons of ROMS and its only a week since we got s-off.

Oh yes, I personally don't dig 3d, however some people seem to like it.

I am far from a professional photographer, but the pics look great to me.

Hope this helps!

If it does feel free to hit the thanks button :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] Newklearx3:
It's just a better Evo 4G. Nuff said.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I believe Sprint is still doing this, but yeah, they basically give you a $150 credit on your bill for your phone. That's what I did to get my E3D.

Battery life stock is pretty good, surprisingly. HTC really did a good job with power management consider the dual core processor. On my ROM, I regularly get over 20 hours of moderate use. If you're on the stock EVO 4G battery and you're getting 40 hours, I know you can't be using your phone heavily.

Yes, absolutely. Some of the big names are already in here and there are a TON of ROMs already.

Performance is fantastic and once you tweak it, it gets even better.

Yeah, it's kind of a cool bragging feature like "Hey, look what my phone does!" but I don't use it too often. Picture quality is very good, IMO. It's anot a DSLR, but for a phone, it's pretty good.

Of course I do :D
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
As far as buybacks, I don't know. Battery life is excellent, camera IMO better. Look st all the Roms

Out so far and its been only a week since it was unlocked!!!!!! Performance is night and day compared to the original. This is one badass phone. Period. I have no regrets. I did not even mention the 3d part!
[HTC EVO 3D] kawaski47:
I think the buy back is now 125.00. The third party store I went to told me 125
[Xperia Play General] wired84:
Hey guys, getting some strange issues with my address bar on my phone.

Its only started recently and I can't work out what I've changed or pinpoint when it happened. All I have done is rooted the phone and removed some of the bloat (all of which on the safe list)

When I go into a browser or have to enter text into a text box I press the text box to try to enter text. If the box already has text in it, it used to select all the text so I can type over it/copy it etc. Now it seems to select all the text, then puts my cursor where I pressed, as if I double clicked.

Has anyone else had this issue? Or know what has caused it/how to fix it.

The second issue I'm having with the opera mobile browser. When I start to type an address it auto completes - gives me options of the ending (.co.uk/.com/.net etc) But it automatically completes the address with the top result.

Is this just me or is it a common issue? Is there a way to stop this?

Thanks in advance
[Xperia Play General] wired84:
Was just having a quick play around ans it seems its something to do with swype keyboard...can't work out how to fix it, any ideas at all?
[Xperia Play General] HearthC0re:
As far as i noticed this happens if you have to manually add something into your keyboards wordDB.. just tap anywhere and back to the line you were and it should not bug.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] J101:
My wife's infuse started doing that shortly after we bought it. Exchanged it for another one.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Defective cable, charger, or phone. Don't know which.

USB mode vs. "AC" mode is determined in compliance with the USB Battery Charging standard - if D+ and D- of the USB port are shorted by the charger, it signals a "dumb" charger capable of more than 500 mA. If not, it assumes USB which has a limit of 500 mA from the bus. The phone actually has no way of knowing it is on AC or not, just that it is getting +5 volts from a USB port that is indicating presence of a "dumb" charger. It will report this as AC even with a different source (like a car charger).

Actual charge current into the battery on USB is 475 mA. Normal "on-charger" current is 600 mA.

iPad/Phone/Pod chargers use a different method of signaling a "dumb charger" that our phones treat as USB.

hello noobs :p

I am new to this forum..

I cam here bcoz I was fed up:mad: of 173mb of app memory that my Milestone XT720 was giving me. I have rooted my phone using Universal Androot..thanks for XDA

Now,I want to know...that what wonders I can do from rooting? Can I uninstall system app..? If yes, which app I shud install?

Can I add more apps than 173MB? and what more I can do with this?

What are precautions I need to follow??

Your question about rooting almost applies to all devices and not just this phone alone ^_^

others can add as well...
[Milestone XT720 General] firzen_net:
Download any easy to use system app uninstaller. I used Root Uninstaller, even though it gets kinda buggy sometimes. Back up your apk before uninstalling it, in case something goes wrong and you need it. Also freeze the apk if you think that uninstalling it will cause serious problems.

you can uninstall any bloatware ifyou have any, or other system apps which chomp away at your battery life with their running services. just be careful not to remove anything important.

Download a CPU app which changes your CPU frequency to conserve battery. SetCPU is what I use. SetCPU also provides a pretty detailed explanation to how to use their apk on their website. While you're at it, you can download an overclocking apk as well if you think it lags sometimes when you play games or have alot apps running.

I use the apk, Milestone Overclock. It is simple and works.

This is what I've done after rooting, just giving a few suggestions.
[Milestone XT720 General] Chety:
Thanks....Can we increase our app memory? Can I install more than 175mb?
[Milestone XT720 General] firzen_net:
For the app memory problem, download any kinda app that has the keyword APP 2 SD/ Apps2sd. Theres several free apps out there that can do this, and paid apks floating around the internet as well. This is just one of them: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd&hl=en

It moves your applications into your SD so that you can free up your internal phone storage. The downside of that is sometimes if you connect phone to your usb, you will have no access to the apk on your phone.

ex. if you move texting app to SD, when your computer has access to USB, the cannot work.

So, just move accordingly. Not really much of a big deal.

[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
App2SD only works in 2.2 or higher. I think you're running the stock 2.1 with root? If so, look for an app called Link2SD. You will have to partition your SD card with an additional FAT partition, but otherwise it's very similar to App2SD (it's actually superior in many respects, really).

You can get rid of the camera click sound by going into /system/media/audio/ui and delete the camera_click.oog file or rename it to something else (like .goo) so you don't have to delete it.

This may seem a stupid question, but recently i had to make a hardreser to my HTC TOPAZ, and since then whenever I use dailer screen, the keypad sounds a tone every time i press a key. This is strange because before performing the hardreset i have disabled the tones, without problems.

I contacted HTC Support Center and they indicated these steps.

From the main Home page - Start> Settings> Sounds & Display> Ring & Notifications> Notification sounds.

But I have done this before i call them and I could not turn off the tones.

Is there another step desctivas these "parasite" tones?
