Why not root your phone? At the end or the day you still can unroot it. It's not like you flash to a different Rom and lost your stock Rom.

As far as I know your running froyo you already have move app to SD at the manage application in setting. There are free market app that can help you to move apps to SD with simple clicks without going to setting with the slow loading.

I'm afraid there are no default to app to SD unless you root your Rom and flash a2sd script like darktermor to make the whole process default. Better still, you also need to partition your card with an ext partition for it to work.

By the way... You should be able to adb shell your phone with a proper setup from your pc. You need to look for adb shell howto.

Sounds like your doing it from the wrong folder at cmd if your using windows. Try start cmd from the folder with adb.exe or set your system path to include the folder with adb.exe. I'm not with a pc now, I can't direct you. You have to look for it on what I mean.

By the way, can you also post the link for the article you found?

I have friends that can't root their phone. E.g HTC wildfire s

Sounds like the original issue was the pc not seeing the device....I know this may be elementary, but do you have it in "charge only" mode and not in the disk drive mode?

"Sounds like your doing it from the wrong folder at cmd if your using windows. Try start cmd from the folder with adb.exe or set your system path to include the folder with adb.exe." - pysionx

I am starting cmd from the folder with adb.exe that laocated in platform-tools.If I was not doing so I would get the error " 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file." and on typing adb devices in the cmd prompt I would not get the answer "list of devices"

pysionx - "By the way, can you also post the link for the article you found?"

Unfortunately no as this is my first post I am not allowed by the administrator to do so.Please Check out the attachment.Sorry for giving you the trouble to download attachment.

pfroyjr - "Sounds like the original issue was the pc not seeing the device"

If the pc does not see the device how do I get in Windows device manager showing "Android Phone" > Android Composite ADB Interface.

pfroyjr - "I know this may be elementary, but do you have it in "charge only" mode and not in the disk drive mode?"

I do not have it in "charge only" mode but in the disk drive mode, USB debugging started is the message received in the notification area.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfroyjr:
Google "Spice driver" I'll find a link if you can't. Windows is odd with its drivers sometimes. I remember the first time I ever used SDK I had to remove the default drivers and install the one from HTC but recently just installing the driver was good enough and I've only used adb and not the SDK. just a suggestion.

EDIT: I forgot which posting I was replying to, sorry....

I found THIS which sounds like it's an issue with the phone and maybe not the same Android OS that everyone else has....just what I read. Happy Googling my friend. Sounds like it's a cool device, just not quite up to par with adb.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darryl_co:
I do have the drivers of my mobile Spice Mi-270 which was shipped along with the phone. The drivers files are of similar names with that of the google usb drivers for android except for the file versions.

Thanks pfroyjr for the link.It seems it is the problem with the phone itself as I am not the only one facing the problem with adb comand.

I think it can be done with the help of adb .

Just run command from the folder having adb.exe file after connecting your phone in USB Debugging Mode.

"adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2"

YOu can change it to default by the following command.

"adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0"

Type the commands without quotes....

Hope it helps!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yagya:
Hey try this adb command from the directory having adb.exe file after connecting your phone to your pc by enabling USB Debugging Mode on it.

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2

You can change it back to default by this command ..

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darryl_co:
I installed universal androot and rooted the phone.

Instead of shell commander I installed Move2SD Enabler.The move2sd had three radio buttons Auto, Internal and External.Initially it displayed the radio button on Auto.I selected External and clicked apply.Now it shows External.Then I unrooted the phone.In Apps2SD I found many apps that were listed under phone only under movable apps.Few questions do arise

1.If I restore to factory defaults will the installation to external storage be resetted?

2.Whenever I Install new apps it gets installed in the phones internal storage and the I have to move to sd.Why is that so?

3.Even after moving to the sd some amount remains in the phone internal storage.why?

4.Can I check using shell commander if the install location has changed? what is the command? Do I have to root the phone again to use the command?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yagya:
Restoring factory default settings will reset default install location to auto.

Since you used move to sd enabler it only makes all apps movable to sd but doesn't move them automatically.

System apps and Those apps that don't support app to sd by default can't be completely moved to sd card

Yes, you can check using shell commander but you need to riot you phone to use the command.

pm getInstallLocation

(returns default install location)

pm setInstallLocation 2

(installs app direct to external storage)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darryl_co:
When I use the command

su

pm getInstall Location

I get

2[External]

then I typed

pm setInstallLocation 0

pm getInstall Location

I get 0[Auto]

pm setInstallLocation 2

pm getInstall Location

I get

2[External]

Then the phone was UNROOTED

Inspite of this the apps do get installed to the phones internal storage and I get the option to "Move to SD" on all the installed apps

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rberger3:
I just purchased the flytouch 3 and it's meh ok. I was wondering how much better, same, or worse the Gtablet is over the flytouch 3. I rooted the flytouch with tims 5a. I will root the g-tablet as well.

Thoughts?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fazz:
FlyTouch3 Vs Hannspree Hannspad SN10T (not the ViewSonic Gtab)

I bought the FlyTouch3 for my missed to mess around with for a while and at the time, we were rather impressed!

However, we didn't use it that much, as the overall quality was average due to the average screen quality, standard touch screen (not multi), no bluetooth, GPS was a pain (kept seeing us in China even various ROM's like Tim), audio was pretty rubbish (both inbuilt speakers and general sound), the battery was a little on the low side (gave us about 4-6 hours usage) and inbuilt camera was terrible.

I decided to pass it on to my Mother, whom was only wanting to use it for BBC iPlayer and random basics, so was fine and was about to get an ASUS Transformer, when we decided to save (quiet a bit of) money and go cheaper again (due to us doing a lot of expensive house renovations currently).

So far, months later, we're still impressed with the Hannspad :D The main thing missing is an inbuilt camera and GPS. Both these features are not ones we need, do to plenty of web cameras around the house to the main desktop and as we don't use it anywhere else, the GPS part isn't needed either (but can fix it via WiFi locking anyway).

The only reason I would agree on comparing them, is the cost factor. The Flytouch3 (with a 16Gb microSD Class 6) cost us just under £100 (imported by hand by friend) and the Hannspad was £120 (via an eBuyer offer). The Hannspad costs more, no matter what, but you also get a lot more for your money and the build quality is 'a lot' better too!

She's currently enjoying the Android world via Android 3.0.1 (Honeycomb ported ROM) and normally I'd have to push her to use her 'useful' toys, but I'm finding that she's actually using it on her own now, reading, replying, G+'ing, researching, Tweeting, a tiny bit of amazing gaming and just started installing random fun stuff from the market ;)

She gets about 6-8 hours battery and with the recent Flashback 7.2 ported Honeycomb ROM, it's getting better (hopefully the lack of Gyroscope and Graphics card will be supported some day soon, which will boost the experience a huge amount) but meanwhile, we can always go back to Android 2.3.5 if doesn't happen soon enough :)
[HTC Desire S] ediap:
Hi,

I have been using SAGA LBC MOD v0.5.4 for a few days. Beside a problem with WPA Enterprise WiFi connection (reported in a separate post), I observe another annoying issue. When I am in a phone call (no matter if I called or received one), I am not able to get back from "screen off" until the call is finished. This means that I have no chance to stop an accidental phone call, once the screen is locked. This is really annoying.

Can anyone confirm such a behavior and found a remedy for it?

Thanks,

/Adam
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
when in call on this ROM I don't believe that the screen is locked, I believe what happens is that in an attempt to save battery the proximity sensor detects when it thinks you are holding the phone to your head and blacks out the screen, at least that what happens on mine, when I move the phone away from my head the screen lights.

Do you have a screen protector? if you do then it probably covers the sensor, which is to the left of the led at the top of screen, you can try cutting a small hole in the protector

Swyped from HTC Desire S using XDA Premium
[HTC Desire S] ediap:
Yes, I have screen protector and it seems it covers the proximity sensor. I will give it a try. Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] aajk:
This is normal behavior in this mod..
[HTC Desire S] ediap:
What do you mean by "normal behavior in this mod"?

The fact that if you move the phone away from head, the screen is still black (off) and cannot be restored even by clicking the power button? To me, this seems to be a bug, unless it is caused by a screen protector covering the sensor.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
This is not behaviour and I've been on that mod since it's first version to it's most recent

On my device, without a screen protector it takes a second or so for the screen to light once the phone is removed from head but out always does

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] slimslim:
Tried most of them :-). Like somebody said, swiftykey has bad multitouch, if you're a fast typer it's not for you. Often I ended up losing letters. If you wanna try it you can still get it for free from Getjar.com, gold apps. Don't worry, it's legit. Go keyboard is nice also, but again, if you type too fast then you end up with a swipe keyboard. I don't like to use swipe either. Anyway, all and all, I ended up with steven lin's keyboard from android 2.3+, a gingerbread keyboard-like from the market (¢99) the best one out there for me. I like I can customize the size of the keys, the gaps between them to fit my needs. Also has some nice additional themes.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Kraize:
My story:

I used to use Swype on my HD2 on WinMo 6.5. Then I got an android. I decided to try Swype again, it was horrible. Especially since I couldn't just thumb accurately. It would try to swype because i would type too fast. Then I switched to SwiftKey X after it was free on the Amazon App store. I didn't really like it, but I kept it. I also tried TouchPal (because I really liked the winmo version), FlexT9, and SlideIt as well. Then swype released their new beta and it fixed all my problems. I can swype and just tap and when you tap, it doesn't confuse it with swyping. So in the end: Swype > all others.

My vote is for Swiftkey X or Swype. Different keyboards depending how I feel. I think I can definitely crank out a few more wpm with Swiftkey though.

On a side note, I've been using 8pen a lot lately. It's by no means the fastest keyboard, but it's a neat take on how to change the QWERTY standard. After I got used to it, I can type faster than using the number pad methods, so it's not too horrible. I think the best part about it is I can type with 100% accuracy without having to look at the screen.
