[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookpass:
I partitioned my new 8Gb class 10 SD card with roughly 6.5Gb Fat32 and 1Gb Ext4 in Gparted (2X Primary etc...) and installed LeeDroids R4 HD rom. Everything works fine, great rom and well pleased with it. R5 came out so I decided to do a full wipe and pop that on instead, the update said amongst other things it had improved battery life (which it does).

Anyway, I thought I'd just clear/recreate the partitions from scratch again in Gparted and reformat the card. When I booted it up with Gparted the only partition that showed up was the FAT32 one. So it reported the card as being only the size of the FAT32 patrition. And no mention of the EXT4 one at all. I loaded it up as a drive in windows (7) and the same thing happened. It only recognised the FAT32, previously it has shown the ext as unknown.

Titanium backup reports that the ext partition is there ok (app2sd), so I just cleared the caches etc.. in recovery and flashed it that way.

It's not a problem as such as it's all working, but why can't I see that other partition to delete/edit it? And if I ever use it for something else it's a bit of a pain if I'm down a gig...

Thanks in advance :)

I also realised I forgot to tick the "is this a question" thing too, so sorry sbout that :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salty Wagyu:
I had the same issue 2 days ago when I wanted to remove the ext partition from my SD card. The only thing that would show up in gparted was 7GB of unformatted space which was in fact the size of my FAT32 partition.

Instead of USB mounting it from Recovery, I took the card out of the phone and put it into a card reader, gparted was then able to see my Ext3/Fat32 partitions and I was free to make changes :)

Hope this helps!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookpass:
Nice one, I'll try it with that later and see if it works :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vmax007:
It is quite usual for WIn7 to not show the ext partition exists since Win7 does not recognize it... Try checking your sd card on ubuntu by running a live cd... it should show up as 2 removable medias

Thank you salty wagyu

Got round to trying it yesterday, your tip was spot on.
[General Questions and Answers] Invader004:
Greetings,

I love this site and I have been coming here for ideas and help for many years, however I need some help with brain storming and maybe a few ideas. With all your personal information everywhere one starts to wonder, want cant I do this myself? The goal of my project is to house all of my information I can locally. However you might be asking how I will backup this information such as email, music and other data. Simple, at my friend’s place I have a small Linux server running SSH that does daily backups with full backups at the end of the month.

I wanted the abilities of Dropbox, Evernote, email access, tasks, Pandora, etc

Here’s what I have so far:

•	Home wiki server just for my information, it’s also private and I am the only one can access the information - for my Evernote solution

•	Home media streaming server with Subsonic my Pandora solution

•	Home email server – my personal email solution

•	Home backup server that’s uses SSH – backup solution.

•	Home VPN for remote access

What I am still looking for and planning to deploy:

•	A Funambol server for data sync this will include Calendar tasks and contact information. Does anyone know of a different server that would work?

•	Remote wipe Application and a location finder such as Lookup out. Would Where’s my droid work for this?

•	Firefox sync server for all my bookmarks

Can anyone think of any other neat syncing projects? I guess when you think about it this would be my personal cloud. If you have a question on how I did something fell free and ask. All my Linux Servers I have install scripts that I have made that include packages I installed with commands.

Thanks hope to hear back from you!

I spent less than $30 over at Amazon and got two 1900mAh batteries and a charger for them. The batteries say that they are for the Sensation but work perfectly for the MT4GS. I take lots of photos with my phone(30-40 daily),, send a 150 or more messages a day, surf, compose emails and have about an hour of total talk time per day. 2 Anker batteries takes me through the day without needing an outlet.

I can fully recommend these for our phone. I am in no way affiliated with Anker and did not know the name before I purchased the product.

UPDATE: These batteries are NOT A WIN! After a month and a half of intense usage, I am finding (with two separate batteries) that these may not get enough power to our phones and results in an error for the camera flash when no real error exists (except with the manufacture of this battery perhaps).

I am checking out new batteries. Will report back asap. I am recommending folks avoid Anker for now though. I'm still investigating this situation.

FYI: The exact error is "unable to use flash due to cold weather".

UPDATE: After a few days of trying to reproduce the flash error, I've had zero problems and lots of fun with my phone so I think we can chalk it up at most to a defective battery and not a systemic issue. I've been using the battery since with no problems. Enjoy your phones!

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1900mAh..._23?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1313683743&sr=1-23

That's the link to the one I just ordered, it shipped yesterday, should be here in another two days. I'll definitely review after I get it.

Anker batteries in the 1900 capacity have been recommended by several here so far, and I haven't heard anything negative about them except for:

One user reports that the fit is almost too snug in the battery case. Any words on this?

Other then that - they sound like a solid win, enough so that I bought one too.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
I actually purchased the set that comes with two batteries as I bought my MT4GS on Craigslist and couldn't verify the integrity of the battery it came with. The batteries for the Sensation DO fit snug but it doesn't cause any problems. I spent 30 minutes looking at that aspect. Putting them in, taking them out.... The batteries last a good while (1900mAh) and the charger seems to work well after the initial charges which are a bit longer than normal (but not much longer).

One thing to look out for is that the charging prongs on the charger have a design I have not seen before. Since it is a universal charger from Anker they slide along a rail as so that they can be used to charge various HTC batteries which may have the charging port at various different points along the top of the battery. So like the G2 or the HD2 battery could be charged in the charger as well (I've done it) because you can move the charging prongs from left to right along this rail that they slide on. So you have to make sure that you have them lined up for the + and - port on the MT4GS battery so that you're getting a proper charge and not just sitting there wasting your time.

It's a small thing and not a problem. In fact, it might be a bonus for those who have other HTC devices that it can also charge.

Congrats on your purchase. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Chinese 3 battery combo with charger

I have been buying the spare batteries from Hong Kong/China with the slow ass battery charger for my past few devices. They are 10.95 delivered. The MT4GS and the Sensation are IDENTICAL. I spent 1 dollar more for the MT4GS and everything was exactly the same and there was no reference to MT4GS on either of the packages that arrived at the same time.

I can't complain. I always have my laptop bag with all of my techno gear spare 2A DC and AC chargers.

I can't not be connected?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chorpler:
It's definitely a tight fit, but it's not too bad -- it's not hard to pull out when you want to change the SIM or microSD card, for instance. It is tight enough that it doesn't fall out by itself very readily, though -- a couple days ago when I was experimenting with the carrier unlock and swapping SIM cards, I forgot to put the back of the phone* back on when I was done, and I carried the phone around for several hours without having the battery fall out or come loose. I even dropped the phone about 2.5 feet from my desk surface onto the non-carpeted floor and the battery didn't pop out.

So the fit is definitely snug -- much snugger than I'm used to in a phone battery, in fact -- and you have to press down to get the top to slide into place properly, but in my opinion it's a good thing, not a bad thing.

*That is, the "battery" cover, although it covers a lot more than just the battery, unlock my G2's battery cover, which I wish they had made the mT4GS's battery cover more like, but now I'm a bit off topic...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Good to know.

Mine came in today, and i'm watching the charge light turn purplish now as it goes from red to blue, so it should be real soon that it's done charging for the first time.

I think i'm going to restore my first solid CWM backup after rooting on my old battery, then wipe the battery stats file, power down, swap batteries, and power up to run it down. Hopefully this will get me a good calibration right off the bat.

I can't wait to start using it - this holding off until it's charged all the way the first time is killing me lol.

I'll report back in a few days how it works after the first 4-5 discharge cycles the package says it'll take to get my full capacity out of it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pantheis:
Do you have to use the charger that comes with the battery to charge the battery or can you charge it as normal inside the phone? I would like to get a longer lasting battery but I certainly do not want to have to remove it from my phone every time I want to charge it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chorpler:
No, it charges just fine inside the phone. The external charger is just in case you need to charge it outside the phone for some reason, like if you have two batteries and you want to charge both up for a long trip or something.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pantheis:
Awesome! Just picked up two MT4G Slides the other day and already I can see the battery life is going to be a potential issue. Coming from a Bold 9700 I knew I was going to run through the battery much faster, but I wasn't quite expecting this fast.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, after my second day with the Anker 1900 battery, I am extremely impressed.

It's like a night and day difference. Honestly, my biggest concern was the heat issue. I noticed that my stock battery got pretty warm, and while not enough to burn me, was enough to impact the lifespan of the device and battery.

I had a theory that spreading the same amount of load over a greater range of discharge would produce less heat, and that has proven out to be true. Maybe the Anker battery is just made better, but more likely my theory was correct.

The Anker battery doesn't get anywhere near as warm with general use of the device as the stock battery did. Solid win there.

The amount of time I get with the battery before having to charge is already significantly increased, and I haven't fully broken it in yet. I'm no longer having to plan out where my next charge location is going to be and trying to ration my device usage to make sure I get to it. Now I can just go about my business without worrying about running out of juice.

Bonus points because now my stock battery is available as a backup, just in case - making the win that much sweeter.

Thanks to everyone who suggested this battery, it was definitely a great buy, and the price is unbeatable.

Evo 3d Battery

Has anyone tried the Evo 3d battery? It's rated at 1730mah and reportedly works just fine in the sensation.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I don't know if you'll find much traction for this - the anker battery has a higher capacity rating and lots of endorsement from people (myself included) who think it is a superior replacement for the stock battery.

I'd be curious, just to know, but I would recommend the anker 1900 battery for the sensation above anything else.

I wonder why you would want to know this?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rdrrlabs:
Contacted Laptopmate (US Distributor of Anker) via Amazon's customer service. Turns out they have an Ebay store and an Amazon store.

Ebay store is MUCH cheaper. Found batteries and a charger for $15 less.

One thing this company does on both sites is "overlist" they will have the same product for $8.99, and $9.99 for example. I found the first eBay mt4gs battery was 11% off and listed at $14.99 with charger, I kept exploring and found it later for $11.99 - same item.

You also need to watch they have some other non-Anker batteries with varying capacity sizes that might be a bit less. YMMV.

Now just sitting back and waiting for them to arrive.

I'm in the process of doing s off on my sensation and I was wondering what super cid is ...also can you do s off flash a custom recovery and flash a custom rom without super c I d
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
Super CID "allows you to flash ANY ROM to the device regardless of the carrier" (taken straight from the S-OFF sticky). You can certainly S-OFF, install custom recovery, and begin flashing custom ROMs without Super CID, but you will be limited in your choice of ROMs to those that are the same carrier as you have. Acquire Super CID and you're more or less free to flash whatever ROMs you want from the dev section.
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
CID is the Country Identifier, a code which is stored on your phone and software uses to determine which country or region the phone is for. HTC updates, for example, use it to determine (among other things) which languages to install.

SuperCID is a special code, 11111111, which means that software from any region can be installed.

While SuperCID may seem handy, note that if you are only interested in debranding your phone, the OTA (over the air) updates which HTC sends will not be available for your phone, since there is no specific region defined. So, in such cases, you should choose a specific CID for your region.

super cid change

can u pls direct me on how to change my super cid to a specific cid.ASP PLS.:fingers-crossed:
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
are you on S-OFF?

if yes then connect your device from bootloader to pc(in the hboot screen should say fastboot usb)

open a cmd window in your adb and fastboot folder and type

fastboot oem writecid <<name of cid>>

fastboot getvar cid(to cinfirm that your cid has chnaged)

I am s off. But beginning to think not. Bl says s off and so does getvar all.... but still need to fastboot boot.img. Device came "s off" it was a preleased HTC one x
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
so you are saying you flashed a custom rom and ended it up with a bootloop?
[HTC Sensation] Tmobilefan906:
Yea. Had bootloop..but I went ahead and fastboot flashed boot.img. I thought the whole idea on flashing boot.img was cuz at the time rom was made, it was intendeded for s on devices.

When I bought the phones that's first thing I did was getvar all to see the specs. It came"s off" with locked bl. So I unlocked bootloader and checked getvar again and it said unlocked and s off. IDK why I had to fastboot the boot.img. Could the s off status be a lie? Lol
[HTC Sensation] Tmobilefan906:

[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i don't think S-OFF is a lie

maybe you are using the wrong recovery for that rom
[HTC Sensation] Tmobilefan906:
No. It flashed correctly.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i can't think something else then

i assume you can boot in the rom after flashing the boot.img

I've looked around and haven't found much. I anyone know what would be a good overclocked setting but save alot of battery?

Sent from my DROID X running MIUI :)
[Droid X General] Jubakuba:
It varies from phone to phone, unfortunately.

Jrummy's "Android Overclock" is what I personally use...

My settings are:

Low Voltage 1.2GHz Preset (Set at Boot)

And I then enable profiles for some battery saving.

Profiles:

Screen off %100 priority 800MHz max 400MHz min.

Temp > 42c %90 priority 800MHz max 400MHz min.

Battery < 30% %80 priority 800MHz max 400MHz min.

Screen On %70 priority 1200MHz max 400MHz min.

This ensures my phone is at 800MHz while the screen is off or while the temp is high or while my battery is low (I like that one so I can draw the last little bit of battery out a bit.) I put the Screen On profile just as a fail-safe to make sure I revert to 1.2 max while the screen is on unless the other conditions are met.

You can even make your screen off profile all the way down to 400MHz max and min...but that just makes me nervous for some reason.

I never had a problem for the few days that I used it, but I'm a bit OCD with some things.

I was worried that I wouldn't receive calls or my alarm wouldn't work or something like that.

Hopefully this helps a bit.

Try that as a starting point, and adjust as you see fit.

When I try to go nto recovery or dl mode,my screen is black n goes to normal boot. Did I damage my recovery? N if so can I get it back?

Tried to turn it on again n I just get bootloops, still no recovery or dl mode.

Step 1. look at the bible. Look for the kg4 rom, pit file and odin are included in the download.

Step 2. to get into download mode, pull out the battery, plug in your phone, hold BOTH the volume up and down buttons, then plug in the battery. Congrats. Youre now in download mode.

Step 3. unzip all the files from the .rar file you just downloaded.

step 4. start odin and input all the files in the corresponding order. It tells you where each file goes.

step 5. Click start and wait. :)
