+1 for this. :mad:

It´s just astonishing that we have to repeat again and again the same story:

Simply flash your stock ROM via SD card method, this way, you will completely erase everything on your phone. The SD card itself will not be changed, btw.

You might also flash via USB using the RUU.exe file, to keep HSPL, but I still would recommend to start from scratch.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomaToz:
Can someone please help me?

I have the same problem after formatting my sd card and trying to remove hspl, now it says "Not allow" when i turn my phone on and then displays the same as OP's phone, I'm freaking out, i don't know how to access SD card when i can't turn on my phone please help :[
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pianoman102:
Try doing a task29 then flashing a stock rom. It should erase the spl and every thing else. From there you should be able to do what you want with Wm and SD android.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sephi:
Hi there,

I'd love to hear about your battery performance. It seems to differ so much between useres that it's really strange. Maybe we can also find out which apps/widgets are too heavy on the battery.

I''m currently using SGBS Rom 2.5 stock.

My average performance is barely a day with moderate use.

I'm using:

- two E-Mail accounts, one with push

- HTC friendstream widget

- HTC google calender widget

- Google News widget

- display brightness set to the halfpoint

- some hours of WLAN a day, always on with mobile internet

- a little surfing, SMS

that's it. With this user behavior I now got about 25 hours out of my batter. Display is 28%, Phone inactivity is 21%, standby is 16%, WLAN is 13%, Mail is 11%, Phone is 7%, calls are 4%, Android OS is 3%.

I deactivated most of the syncs, push is active for my main active E-Mail, the other one is every 15 minutes. Rest is "once per day" or not at all, HTC sync is deactivated.

Is this performance normal? Any ideas? I'd say it's ok but there are people out there claiming they get 48 to 72 hours out of their phone with moderate use. That's quite a difference.

Thank you!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Battery performance differs from user to user and rom to rom. Some roms will run better than other roms and it also depends on what the user has installed on their phone. If you have a fair amount of widgets or just stuff that runs in the background then your battery life will be worse than other people's. CPU frequencies and governors can also come into account.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sephi:
So, what's the best way to find out what influences your battery life most? I know there are those stats which I posted but they really don't help that much, do they?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
The stats you gave fluctuate too much. The main thing is to keep an eye on your apps. See which apps are running in the background, see how much memory they're using. Widgets are another thing to be careful of. I don't use widgets, just the one since I'm on sense, but having lots can impact battery life. You can try and use an auto run app which allows you to stop apps automatically running on startup.

Try not to use live wallpapers and screen brightness.

Punched in..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravi_D:
I charge it every 24 hours on the average - goes from 100% to 30%. A few phone calls, some emails. Not heavy on messages. Some Internet once in a while. Needs an extra recharge on days when GMaps or GPS or Angry Birds come into play.

Have seen some improvement from Stock Froyo HTC ROM to (over the last week or so) AOSP (Redux2 Test Builds).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sephi:
Ok then, new stats. I got about 10 hours now with an active time of almost 2 hours and I'm a 70%. Had a short phone call, emails, that's it. Rest was just idling over night.

Main battery culprits at the moment:

Mail 30%

WLAN 19%

Standby 14%

Phone inactivity 13%

Display 11%

Calls 8%

Phone 4%

Android OS 3%

My App Stats:

Options 15MB

Maps 6MB

Calender 9MB

CSPeopleSyncsService 3,9MB (?? no idea what that is)

Google Services 8,9MB (no idea either)

Mail (5,4MB)

Sense 4,3 MB

Market 3,7MB

Mail (again) 6,6MB

152 in use, about 200 free.

Widgets:

Calender

Friendstream

Weatherclock

Google News

Any idea?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sephi:
So first report regarding the new radio. It definitly works fine with SGBS, can't say yet if batter life really is better:

I'm now down to 68% after 15hours. At least 8 hours of those are flight mode over night. WLAN was active the whole time. Display is the main battery culprit, Telephone "inactive" is right next to it. Then WLAN with about 18%, then Handset standby with 16%.

So I obiously don't know what thelephone "inactive" means, that's still pretty high. But I think handset standby is a little lower. So maybe the radio helped with that?

BTW, I used the music player yesterday for about 40 minutes. And had a short GPS test (works fine with new radio) so I guess 70% after 15 hours is ok...

Fun take on a familiar game type. I left the game and went back in only to find a black screen.

Unfortunately I'm on Motorola Triumph so I have to kill the app the old fashioned way instead of holding down the back button.
[Android Apps and Games] mmlsw:
Thanks for the information, will be fixed soon.

EDIT: This issue should be solved now in v1.0.8 now available on Android Market, SlideIn and GetJar :)
[Android Apps and Games] japiro.de:
Can you explain why this App needs so many permissions? For example I don't see why it should need a permission to acquire my location for a tilt-jump game.

It's always nice to read what the permissions I grant are used for in the description of an app.
[Android Apps and Games] Midnitte:
might have to do with openfeint, or just random things that require those permissions
[Android Apps and Games] mmlsw:
Hi,

Thanks for the tip, I'll include permissions breakdown in Market description also.

Permissions breakdown:

NETWORK COMMUNICATION

OpenFeint online gaming network, Ads.

VIEW NETWORK STATE

Allow OpenFeint to detect network state.

STORAGE

Offline cache for OpenFeint.

COARSE (NETWORK-BASED) LOCATION

Ads system needs approximate device location for better ads targeting.

In future OpenFeint will need this for geo-location leaderboards.

PREVENT DEVICE FROM SLEEPING

Prevent the device from going to sleep while game is running.

CONTROL VIBRATOR

Vibrating effects during game.
[Android Apps and Games] mmlsw:

Nice game, but sometimes the gyros seem a little bit laggy. Device is a ZTE Blade.
[Android Apps and Games] mmlsw:
Thanks for information. I'll test later today with ZTE Blade and see how it works.

However, fast googling turned out that ZTE Blade has some slowness in accelometer.

Do you have stock firmware or custom (Cm7) installed?
[Android Apps and Games] mmlsw:
Did some testing, here's results:

Tested with ZTE Blade running stock firmware.

Accelerator (and whole phone) lags really bad when android background data was enabled, could not play any game smoothly.

After background data was disabled, the game was playable, even though accelerator is a bit slow (maybe 200ms latency).
[Android Apps and Games] alanwu:
A very simple game. Good to kill time.

Thanks! :)

[Galaxy 3 General] araandroid:
I was using stock rom with stock kernel ( froyo 2.2 - DDJP4 ). I recently flashed fugumod 2.4 beta 3 standard edition kernel with odin. All gone well , now it is saying fugumod kernel in about phone. Though i kept fs.covert with correct values in /sdcard/android/data/fugumod/ , filesystem conversion did not happen. I tried rebooting phone , but it didn't worked. Please help me to convert filesystems , as i need them to install data2sd. Also i am unable to have CWM recovery , please help me for both issues.
[Galaxy 3 General] dhirend_6d:
Try G3Mod kernel and then install G3Mod app. You can change filesystems eaisily. And also enable data2sd eaisily.
[Galaxy 3 General] niteshtak:
open a new text file and rename it to "fs.convert" (For eg : file.txt => fs.convert )

Inside that file specify the partition,and along with it the filesystem u want to convert it to :

Eg: stl 7 ext4 stl 6 ext 4

After that place the file in the Android\data\fugumod folder on ur sdcard and then restart
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake-CT:
I went through the process of pairing my ps3 controller to the tabs bluetooth and got it to connect and respond using six axis app. But then I can't make it do anything else - when I press a button nothing happens no matter how I redefine the keys. I noticed that the website said it may not work with new samsung devices but someone reviewing the app said it worked fine. Any hints on how to get it to work? Do I need a non-samsung rom?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkhalil06:
lol i never even used sixaxis with the PS3 ...let alone on my tab
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
Can you give a bit more info? What Rom and Kernel are you using? What software did you use to connect them? People will help if you give them relevant info.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake-CT:
I am using the six axis controller app from the market. On stock touchwiz with the latest small update applied and rooted (UEKME). You have to be rooted for the app to work at all.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRaSh:
Do you want to navigate through the Android OS or do you want to play games with it? Most regular games don't work with the PS3 controller. Usually people use the controller to play roms with emulators. There you can map the buttons to actions in the settings menu to play the game.

As for the Android OS navigation, as far as I know only the directional buttons work to navigate the home screen and some menues but that's it. You could try mapping different functions to the buttons right from the sixaxis app. It should work if you select the right options.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake-CT:
Update: I resolved the issue with a restart... The program now works perfectly for gaming (including using both analogue sticks eg for N64). In theory you can map any key or function to the buttons but it would be hard work actually doing anything else but gaming. I definitely recommend the below app, though:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morgenavond:
Hi, after installing the Debian Package for the Webtop and some playing around with it I now no longer have the App Tray or any of the other system panels. It starts up with the mobile view and thats it.

Please help?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
What exactly did you do to it?

Did you changed something on the startup file?

Did you installed the HDMI Mirror hacked files?

Please elaborate a bit more...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morgenavond:
Hi there,

Yes I made some modifications. After I got Debian on it I installed synaptic and from there the xfce4 desktop. From there i modified the start-oshwt2.sh file so it would load it up instead of the awm. That didnt work out as I wanted to.

Then I undid the modifcations to the startup file and rebooted and since then all is gone....

I am using a Dock and no HDMI hack. Also standard 2.2.2 software on a Int Atrix.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
check to make sure phoneportal isn't broken.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
Well, as you already discovered, it's not possible (as far as I know) to boot directly to Debian with that hack. For it to work, you have to use the webtop2sd method. Which I haven't been able to perform due to lack of microsd space.

Also, did you manage to fix apt dependencies? Did all go well with the apt dependency fix? (most people get in trouble on this step). There are some nice scripts already that do this. (sorry don't have the links handy at the moment).

Here's what I would do:

1. Check the start file to see if in fact changes where reverted to default.

2. Re-install Webtop through CWM (search Webtop-Joe.zip on the forums, that is the original Webtop) and start from scratch

3. If that fails too, then search and install through CWM webtop-mod_v1.zip

Good luck!

Rayan
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morgenavond:
Ok here is what happened:

1. I Checked the start file and it was all in default. But something was still holding back the load of the Webtop GUI.

2. I then found the post with the webtop-joe.zip and downloaded it and installed trough Tenfars CWM. When it was done I rebooted and now I am stuck with the following message:

Failed to boot 4

Starting RSD mode

I understand that this is some sort of soft brick but I have no clue what to do from here.
[TouchPad General] broy55:
I need to remote into my work but there is no RDP APP. The VPN works but what good does that do me if I can't connect into my work PC, or our servers. Anyone know if RDP is being developed for Webos?
[TouchPad General] y2kdread:
From what I can find Splashtop should be releasing a application for WebOS, but it doesn't look like they have. Other then Splashtop, it doesn't look like their is a good way unless you want to VNC into a machine and launch RDP through that machine's session.
[TouchPad General] nks2105:
I'd hope somebody (devs) sees an opportunity here...
[TouchPad General] y2kdread:
I agree. It's funny that now that I finally have a device with native Cisco AnyConnect support, it doesn't have any RDP application!

[TouchPad General] leobg:

I would pay as well.

Should we turn this into a bounty thread? If this had RDP, I'd never go back to my desk again. As is, the Touchpad has already made me 200% more mobile at work.
[TouchPad General] nunjabusiness:
Seriously, I would pay real money for a VNC (1st choice) or RDP (2nd) client that works. There is a VNC client free on the HP appstore but it doesn't support (or work at all on) the Touchpad. I have emailed the dev but his site is all German and I don't know if he will understand.
[TouchPad General] dhess83:
This is the main reason I am needing android so badly... At this point no client for RDP exists, as far as I can tell. We desperately need WYSE pocketcloud, which also does VNC, and I doubt they port that app to webOS
[TouchPad General] broy55:
iTap works really well for Android and iPad, I wonder if they would develop an app for Webos?
[TouchPad General] AdamLC:
I'm tempted to write one myself lol!
[TouchPad General] flashoftheblades:
I was able to do it by installing ubuntu on the device and then just installing rdesktop in ubuntu. It should use the existing VPN connection that you have and you should be able to connect. I was able to use the same setup to create a SSH RDP tunnel to my home computer.

There's a bunch of tutorials on how to install ubuntu on the Touchpad.
[TouchPad General] tikblang:
Gnome-RDP is very nice on Debian Squeeze64. I download Cisco Anyconnect client from Stheir site via CCO login. Very nice.

Now I'm looking for just an RDP client for my HP Touchpad so I can access my work PC. IPSEC using native VPNC (not VNC) works pretty good. It is very nice. Very fast connection viewing our protected web server.

In the meantime I'll look for a way to run a terminal (or xterm), then use telnet or openSSH from the Touchpad.
[TouchPad General] nunjabusiness:
I got an answer from the guy who wrote the only VNC client for WebOS I know of (current version doesn't work on tablet). He is a very nice German fellow named Bernard Slawik. Here is his answer when I asked if he could update for Touchpad.

Hi,

I don't have a TouchPad, so I can't really develop for it

If it get's available again (I heard something yesterday), I hope it will become available in Europe as well!

Greetings from Munich,

Anybody in Germany/Eastern EU have a Touchpad we can hook Bernhard up with?

I ran across an app called ThinVNC or ThinRDP that should work. You would install their software on your machine you want to control and then use the web browser to connect to that machine (HTML5 browsers only). The basic ThinVNC version is free and ThinRDP costs. Figured I would post here in case it helps someone.
[TouchPad General] christoph417:
I tried ThinVNC with no luck. It worked but was unusable from the touchpad's browser. Don't waste your time on that one. There really needs to be an install-able working app.
[TouchPad General] agentdr8:
tsclient and rdesktop from within UbuntuChroot+LXDE work well enough. Make sure you map a key for right-click (Button3) with xmodmap.

Not as nice as native, but works nonetheless. And the price is right.

[Q] Remote desktop

Does anyone know of a remote desktop app for the Touchpad?

I know that Splashtop said that they will release one at some point, but I'm looking for anything available now.

[TouchPad General] cajunflavoredbob:
I use Logmein Pro for this purpose. It makes it simple for others to use and set up RDP. It isn't cheap at $40 a year with a discount. $60 is the regular price. It allows you to RDP, FTP, and lots of other options. You can use it on an unlimited number of PCs to control one PC. It's very simple and well worth the price. It's also available on Android devices.

Obviously, the best option is a free one, but this is what I use without any issue on my Touchpad right now. It was worth every penny in features and support.
