Ah that is why the screen is still working, and the parts dont fall out.

Well i just heard from a friend that someone in the city Groningen can repair my phone for arround 50euros, only the glass and with guarantee, so im gonna bring him a visit next friday :)

And yes, also HTC can fix it for 135euro, is in the range of a new HD2 so wont do that, and im glad i only have 2 months to go till i can get a new device :D

But still, it sucks, its cracked all over and not just a little bit :)

Still readable and working fine though.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paranoid365:
Hey Guys,

I searched the forums, but couldn't find an answer 2 my direct question, so I'm hoping someone can help me out :confused:

I own the Samsung Focus, and I wanted 2 expand the memory with an sd card, but the sd card is not the issue.

Now, I know that once an sd card is installed in the WP7 OS it immediately becomes part of the OS, (so no swapping or removing), and if the card is removed you can mess up the OS. I also know the sd card cannot be swapped into another phone, (unless the nokia trick is used), but what I was wondering was:

If I were 2 get another WP7 down the line sometime, would I be able 2 just swap the memory card then, since it is the exact same OS??

Thanx 2 everyone in advance :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkeyphyst:
I believe that a wp7 device will automatically format/write over any sd card. This should include cards "locked" from previously being used in a wp7. This will remove all data previously stored on the card.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcsc:
I had two HTC Surround phones and I upgraded to the approved microSD Scandisk 32gig (Sandisk SDSDQM-032G-B35 Class 4) and before I did anything I did a full backup with Windows Phone 7 Zune Backup 1.6 and after I swapted out the microsd card and put it into the other phone I had to reset the phone and then start windows phone phone 7, and then do a restore and eveything worked great.

since then I purchased another microSD Scandisk 32gig (Sandisk SDSDQM-032G-B35 Class 4) and installed it into the HTC surround and then reset the phone and then did the restore from my zune backup.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkeyphyst:
The surround is a different animal. You replaced the primary memory. The focus uses NAND as the primary memory and has a separate sd card slot for expansion. Once an sd card is inserted and the phone is hard reset, the nand and sd card are settup in a raid 0 or jbod type arrangement. A backup from a focus running just the nand will not write to the same phone running a nand+sdcard.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paranoid365:
Hi munkeyphyst, thank you for the replies, (and eveyone else that has replied as well), I really appreciate it :cool:

So here is my issue right @ this point, I have updated 2 the official, "mango", (I was on the leaked RTM), but when the update happened it was the, "clean up any beta stuff", update, so as far as I know it never did a backup. So here is what I'm wondeing:

1) After the above update I described, am I indeed on, "official Mango", (my phone says, "Windows Phone 7.5, OS version: 7.10.7720.68)??

2) I have not installed the 32gb card yet, and I know that you need 2 do a, "hard reset", but if I do that I'll be screwed because I don't believe I have a backup of the, "official mango", as Zune didn't seem 2 do a backup during the update process I described above??

3) I remember reading somwhere that MS said that after the, "mango update", people would have more control over the Zune backup process, but as far as I can see, there does not seem 2 be a way 2 just backup your phone??

4) If possible, how would I go about just backing up my phone now, so that I can go ahead an install my 32gb via, "hard reset"??

Again, any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkeyphyst:
After the hard reset, your OS version doesn't change. If you're on 7720, legit or not, you'll still be on 7720. You will lose all personalization and all app data will be lost, but once you register the phone with your liveID, you'll get your contacts back and you can reinstall all the previously installed apps. You can't use a backup from the previous non-expanded sd card state on the phone after an sd card is installed, so you wouldn't be able to restore a backup to retrieve your settings, etc... you will lose texts, photos and videos not synced before the hard reset, call history, and dev unlock, if you are dev unlocked. To regain dev unlock, your only current option is once the card is installed and you've hard reset, revert back to pre-nodo, and go through all the unlocking steps as you move your way forward through the updates
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paranoid365:
Thank you very much for the reply, and the great info. I guess that's the route I'm gonna have 2 take if I want 2 use my 32gb card; oh well having 2 reinstall some programs isn't that bad, and of course it could always be worse. Thanx again :cool:
[General Questions and Answers] Thzoobaw:
Hi,

I'm running an HTC Desire a friend gave me; its a bit older. He got it in the rain and said that he wasnt able to access any wireless networks since then; also, the minus button and the "clitoris" in the center of the bottom dont always respond. Aside from that, it was working fine.

Just installed cyanogenmod 7.0.3 after flashing and have been playing with changing the skins. Once I accept one, a browser window pops up (to google in); if I change to the original skin, I can close it via the back button, but when I change to the other two, that doesnt work, it just stays there. I've tried using menu -> windows and closing, but that just opens a new google window. So I'm kinda stuck and can only access the phone by rebooting it.

Any help?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Konkas:
Hi everyone,

a while back my xperia mini started with this annoying (and weird :confused:) habit to slowly decrease the volume on the left speaker when playing music. It starts out as normal balance but after a few songs the left is starting to go down to a very low level. Not muting it completely though.

It doesn't help to unplug the phones or even restart the phone. When I give up and leave it for a while it returns to normal though... for a while.

Since it takes a while for the volume to go down it's not something I trust a support to properly analyze. Do you think this can be solved with a new rom? I'm running stock android 2.1-update1.

edit: I've tried different music players but it stays the same.
[General Questions and Answers] Jamin13:
What would be the procedure required to successfully downgrade 2.3 to 2.2? The phone I'm trying to downgrade is the Kyocera Echo running 2.3.4.

The .img files that are included in the SDK are system, ramdisk, and userdata. Would I need to erase those three partitions then flash the images or could I just flash them over the existing ones?

(Insert statement about searching forums prior to posting)

Thanks.

[Xperia Play General] Deleted member 2488575:
I recommend you don't try it yet. I can't say for sure but since the R800a and r800i can flash their firmwares interchangeably I don't see why it wouldn't work for the r800at.
[Xperia Play General] McCadi:
OK. Also, when trying to flash this, I can't seem to get into fastboot mode. It just takes me to the charging battery screen. I hold down the search button when plugging in the USB.
[Xperia Play General] Nhialor:
hold it down about half a seconds before you put in the usb. also, you need to be holding the back button for flashtool, the search key is for fastboot

Come on guys, no one answered my question with regards to the sound.

Is the sound just as loud as the previous 2.3.3?

Is the xLOUD still there? If not is there any way to get it?

What else is new in the update? Is it worth updating?

Reason I'm asking is because I've only just updated to 2.3.3 and it's great in every way.

I understand the video camera has been greatly improved however I never use the camera and therefore not too bothered about 720p.

Reason I bought my Xperia Play was to game!

So, is the new update worth it or not and why.

Thanks guys & girls...

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Poetic Vampire:
I have a Motorola Xoom Wifi that for some reason stopped updating automatically the apps i have installed. If i want to update my apps, i have to go into the market and go to the "my app" tab in order to see what updates are available so i can install them. I've had this issue for quite some time, but haven't had the luck to isolate it so I'm deciding to put it here for all of you to see and comment on it.

Troubleshooting done:

1-reconfigure all settings and preferences involving updates (this includes apps settings)

2-uninstall and reinstall all apps

3-clear all cache and app data

Not sure if this could be the exact cause, but i have my eye on it 'cause i've noticed that the automatic updates stop a while after doing my first backup with Titanium Backup. If i decide to restore the factory settings and recreate all my data and apps, everything's fine, but if i do a titanium backup, i won't receive any more automatic updates.

Have titanium restore market links. Long press the restored app and tell it to restore market link. That should help.

Here is the modified framework-res.apk for the CRT Off Animation. Just use root explorer or equivalent to move the file to /system/framework. Your phone will reboot, and you will now have crt off. If anyone wants to make a flashable .zip, feel free.

[General Questions and Answers] WarrGrinn:
Best guess,

Look at the apps you've installed in the last little while. The notification bar adds are probally coming from one of them. Any apps that were non-market installed...more than likely from them.

I've got a widget from 'best apps market' (availible in the android market) that shows last 5 apps installed and options to remove, etc.

If the adds are being txted to you then try blocking the phone number.

Best of luck.
