I just installed [Kings-Rom]Kinged SHOOTER E3D on my evo. I used titanium back up for my apps. When I re installed my apps, couldn't see google music in accounts and sync. It was on my sd card so I moved to internal memory. I still didn't see it so I uninstalled it and when I tried to re install it, it said there wasn't enough space. I have 149mb left on internal storage because I moved just about all of my apps to my sd card. Any suggestions?? Thanks...
[General Questions and Answers] KhanZeeshan:
Hi All,

My question is How to create a Web-service on android device & host it on the mobile. Please don't mis-understood it, I don't want to access the already created webservice deployed on the server, I want to create a webservice that returns json/xml & host it on mobile. I'm totally new to android development but I have programming experience.

Please check this link: "stackoverflow.com/questions/5452670/restful-web-services-implementations-in-mobile-devices"

It says its doable for java based mobile so I think it can be done for android too.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] rustyshack3:
I have thought about the same thing but havent looked because Verizon has nat addressing which makes it impossible. I think other carriers do too, so you might want to check into that first.

[XPERIA X8 General] Destroseitor:
Hi everyone

First post here. I've been reading a lot in xda forums about rooting, installing cooked roms and stuff.

I've managed to root my x8, installed xrecovery (this saved my *** a few times).

As you guys know, to install the newest roms you gotta have the 015 baseband, and i got the old one (006).

I got all the tools i need, superoneclick, flashtool, correct baseband file and the original one just in case.

But somehow i can't get into flash mode. I unplug the cable, turn off the phone, hold the back button, plug the cable again while holding the back butto. The green light turns on for a minute, then.....nothing. The phone wont turn on unless i release this button, and if i release it i get out of flash mode :/

Has this happened to any of you guys?

ps: i noticed this baseband thing since i installed a cooked rom and got an infinite reboot loop. But i had the xrecovery installed, i just restored to my original firmware (it's 2.1 btw) and works great.

EDIT: I forgot to say that i can't use pcc recovery or seus because of this flash mode problem (they both work, but i get stuck at the flashing step)
[XPERIA X8 General] ianrockqrenz:
Why dont u get update baseband from pcc first?so u can freely installing any custom rom,
[XPERIA X8 General] Destroseitor:
Thanks for the reply.

I can't do any upgrade/update through pcc because when i get to those 4 steps (unplug, turn off, press and hold back and plug in) i get stuck in a black screen. I can never get to the flash mode screen, so neither pcc nor seus or flashtool can do the trick since they ask me to follow the same steps.

So far the only things i've succesfully done were

*root

*installed io file manager

*installed root explorer

*installed xrecovery

*installed a ROM without knowing about the "baseband thing" and messed the phone (but ran a restore with xrecovery and it worked great)

Any other ideas?
[XPERIA X8 General] Destroseitor:
Could it be that when i overwrote chargemon in system/bin during the xrecovery install the flash menu got disabled? In that case i would need an original chargemon mmm....
[XPERIA X8 General] Destroseitor:
That was it, the xrecovery version i was using was very old. I installed a newer version with flashtool. Problem SOLVED

Hi,

I'm trying to keep up with the thread on the development forumm but theres to mach going on there.

Can someone please explain what's that they are saying that the rom is locking the sd card and the tonight there will be another rom?

What all this about? whats the difference between the current rom and the new one?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MatchedANDY:
it locks the sd card meaning the sd can no longer be used as a regular sd card and will only work on a windows phone 7 device
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
yeah, at the moment, you have two choices

use the V1 ROM and be able to upgrade your ROM, you can install android still, you can not upgrade to 7712 / 7720 AND have access to your SD card UNLESS you lock the SD card

the second choice is use V2 ROM, this will lock your SD card from the start and enable updates to be much easier

Locking the SD card means that it can not be used at all on another device, Currently there isnt any software that can format the protected portion of the card, some hardware devices can format it, Some Nokia phones, some camera

Locking is actually very useful unless you want android on the same SD card

If you do want to use Android as well then get a second SD card and pop it in when you want to use it.

WP7 its self CAN clear a protected SD card but it will keep it protected, so you can reflash new WP7 ROMS with protected SD cards without any issues at all, but it will always be protected unless you use a Nokia type device.

You can also format a locked card using your wm6.5 on hd2;-)

No, it cannot. It says it is damaged on my topaz.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
A buggered up partition table can be fixed with a propper format which is what 99% of people say "fixes" a broken card.

However, a "Protected" Card can not be formatted in this way, im have a chat with the SD association at the moment to see whats what, so far it is a software limitation on the PC that is stopping us clearing that data, in short if someone writes a program to do it, it will do it, the question is how!

:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] orangekid:
can you guys see the partition on a PC partition app but not modify it? Or can you not even see the partition?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
if a SD card has been locked its essentially unreadable in anything but the device that it was locked in, if you plug a locked (protected) SD card in a PC it will be detected in device manager but windows will not beable to access it, the SD association is a bit vague in their replys but apparently some OSs are able to format a protected card, MS isnt one of them unless there is undocumented flags that can be used at the command prompt, the best bet is probably Linux, I hate using Linux as a desktop but i do have it running as a VM server so i might give that a try a bit later

The funny thing is, its not complicated to do it (apparently) its just no one has really used the protected feature set of the SD standard

Also, (apparently, some SD cards use the protected area to store information other than the encryption key for the whole card, apparently this information might be used in read /write operations on the card, clearing the protected area to remove the SD card lock might have a negative impact on the cards performance.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FelipeMR:
Sorry, but it is confirmed. Windows Mobile 6.5 can not. Apparently Ubuntu does, I am testing!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] timmymarsh:
Interesting. I did a few experiments and a whole heap of reading about this yesterday (Osx doesnt recognise the card either btw):

The card became locked during the update process from 7712 to 7720 during one of the many hard resets i did whilst installing the cabs (the sd fix cab was the last cab i installed). My mistake was not bothering to change the language from its default (English USA to English UK) so it would appear the card is also not only locked to a particular device but its language also.

One could test this by inserting the card, hard resetting and choosing USA as its language, however, it took 4 hours to get the device working to 7720 so im not doing that just yet; so i tried something else.

I put the encrypted card into my hd2, entered magldr and cleared the partition using services. I then entered usb mass storage and connected the device to my PC (win 7 x64). Whilst the card was not recognised in "my computer", if you look in camera&scanners in control panel, you will see magldr is recognised as a mass storage device but the device drivers for this fail to install properly. This is probably due to the "unknown" partition taking up the full capacity of the micro sd card and why it is not recognised by the PC hence it cannot be used for storage.

Unfortunately this also means no partition software will recognise the card, nor is it recognised in any digi camera, even after allegedly clearing the partitions via magldr.

I then had a thought would a nokia emulator work in unlocking the card? to which i havent researched any further as yet.

**EDIT** Apparently someone has decrypted and formatted a card using Ubuntu, im off to download and try it ;)

**EDIT 2** not having much luck with ubuntu either, card not recognised........
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] idevmag:
same here, ubuntu disk manager (11.04 32-bit) shows sd card but 2.2 TB and can't format the drive or volume (i tried the same to clear mbr using magldr), ubuntu is not working
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
WEll, they havent been much further use, all they say is that is perfectly possible to do with software, the APIs have been there for years, its just that no one has ever really paid much attention to it, with the exception of Sat-Navs, professional Music gear etc.

Ive not had a chance to play with Linux yet but i would imagin that you need to think lower level than partition / MBR levels

From what i can gather from their cryptic responses is that when a SD card is setup to use the Secure feature, the device creates a key in the secure section, only that device can then access that section, the storage space on the card is then encrypted using that key, there is no way short of cracking the key to get access to either the secure section or the storage section. However, when you use an OS or Utility that makes use of the Secure protected area its possible to clear it, this would clear all the data obviously off the card, even disk analysers wouldnt be able to see it as it would still be encrypted.

What is concerning is that the Manufacturers have grown used to this special area and use it, apparently this area is used for IO operations, (probably some kind of cache or superfetch) this speeds things up by predicting what you are going to access next

What concerning is, if you have a class 10 device that as we all ready know uses methods to speed up sequential speeds to get that class rating, IF we manage to clear that protected area will the card be effected in terms of speed, conversly, could it improve random access speeds (WP7 essential) if its not farting around trying to predict sequential IO ops!

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] orangekid:
has anyone been able to (in windows or linux) copy the partition on the card without modifying or formatting or anything? Just copying the partition to another card?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] timmymarsh:
Nope, the card is not recognised, im working on it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] orangekid:
I'm going to try as well. If we can just get a recognition/copy to work, then we can do dual-boot again. There has to be some way to copy the entire partition.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
read it again,

note the big "AND"

you can not dual boot Mango 7712/7720 and android on V1

you can not dual boot at all with V2

you cant copy encrypted partitions, it doesnt work that way, its not like making a encrypted folder, its on a much lower level than that, its either encrypted or its not, you either have Mango or you have Nodo AND android

I still cant get the Protected SD formatted, im wondering if its reliant on the card reader supporting those commands.....
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] timmymarsh:
Mm the secret I think is gaining access to the hidden part of the card that contains the encryption key. I'm still working on Ubuntu and have a lead to follow up on.

Your right about the droid dual boot, this isn't my intention so others shouldn't get their hopes up ;-)

tell me something, when its "Locked" are you seeing the small 200MB partition on the SD card if you plug it in to your PC? Can you use the reg trick to allow access to the 200MB partition
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] timmymarsh:
Yh there's a difference between "locked - small partition" and fully encrypted locked. I'm more interested in a fully locked down card. A 200mb card can be easily repartitioned or formated, the other cannot.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
yeah thats what i was trying to figure out, from what ive seen, folk who have claimed to have formatted a "protected" SD have only been formatting a partitioned SD card, im curious to know if that is the case for that user above, i know my old Touch HD wont touch the protected area and im not in the mood to reflash my HD2 again! :) ah, wouldnt you just love a dual boot WM / WP HD2

Yep any newer Nokia can format a full lock/encrypted SD card.

I've formatted my SD card several time with a Nokia 5800 Express Music
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] NickT:
I can confirm that the official HTC HD2 3.14 ROM does NOT format an encrypted WP7 card. I have tried with my card which was running in my phone with 7720. Prior to the current re-flashing of v2 of the Back to the future ROM I flashed the stock 3.14 ROM and it most definitely does not recognise the card at all. I've also tried with Artemis ROM v61 that I have on another HD2 which is exactly the same.

Out of interest I've also tried on a Canon Digital Ixus 65 and the camera detects that the card is protected (giving a message on the screen) but due to this it doesn't allow formatting. Also a Sanyo video camera didn't work.

The only reason I was trying to format the card was to try and start from a clean point for doing a complete re-flash of the ROM. Not a big deal as the card is working fine and I'm guessing is re-formatted when flashing a new WP7 ROM anyway.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mounan:
can i use an SD card both in computer and hd2
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
Well that depends, if you installed v1 AND ran SDfix, OR you installed v2 then you can not use it on a pc, we are looking in to that.

If you didn't do either of the above then you will have access to a 200mb partition on the card but NOT the wp7 partition (although with nodo, WPDM allows you to see some of the contents of wp7, but this doesn't work with mango)

Hope that answers your question

Formatting in N82?

Could anyone please tell me how to format the SD card in a Nokia device? I have the N82 and when I put the card in it, it asks me for the memory card password (which I obviously don't know) and when I try to look at the card in file manager it says memory card locked. Thanks a lot.

EDIT: Actually I managed to unlock the card by again flashing WP7 and applying the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1250869 for those who don't know how: after installing the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab update let the device boot into WP7 and then run the storage lock application from application menu where you can unlock the card. Then you can turn off the phone and format the card for example using PC and EASEUS Partition Master.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] enigma1nz:
Yes, the best solution for me was DEV_STORAGELOCK cab, but then I decided not to bother with anything else, just got the card unlocked within WP7 environment, flashed the 4Gb partition with DEV_EXTRAPART_4G cab and Voila! All done, Android running on 4Gb partition, card is unlocked until boots into WP7 and the only thing that will make me blissfully happy is the cab that will unlock the blasted card permanently, e.g. I won't have to remember to unlock it in WP7 before booting into Android.
