[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dkechitkid:
It's by design and for 2 reasons. Prevents damage to the speaker and allows you time to silence it before it goes full blast. I actually like it.

If I'm next to my phone I can silence it before it bugs anyone else...if I'm not it will ring loud enough to get my attention.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lawr0155:
This is same on mine. It was nice for the one time my phone started going in a meeting cause i hit the volume key fast enough to silence it, but does sound funny when you want it to be loud.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] plant100:
Hi everyone my first post and probably a stupid one at that...:p anyway I have three SD cards all locked after failed upgrades and would like to unlock and reformat them on my HD2 now with a successful upgrade to Mango 7.5. Could someone tell me the procedure for doing so, because the storage unlock won't work when the current Micro SD card is removed from the phone before or after booting Mango.

I know one of the locked cards is compatible but is locked due to an outage during one of my previous upgrade attempts, its 16 gig and I would like to replace the current 2g for larger storage. If the 16gig card was unlocked would this even be possible without having to reflash everything?

thanks for your help...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] whitekidney:
The encryption is unique to each device, that means you can't take a SD card and format it in another WP7.

I don't know if the seed is generated randomly or based on read only values (IMEI?) but my best guess would be that you will have to use one of the methods described in this thread.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
starting with the 2Gb one that is in the phone.

1.Send extrapartition 1Gb cab.

2.do hard reset (1234)and check in settings/about if partition is applied

3. unlock the storage using storagelock tool and remove card, check you can read card in pc.

4 put in second card. do1234 hard reset

5 do step 3 again

6 put in your biggest bestest card and do 1234 hardreset.

7 send extrapartition remove cab and 1234 hard reset

then you can send a bigger extrapartition, I have 7Gb on my 16Gb SD

8 You can then in pc use gparted in linux or Easeus partition master in windows to resize and format your spare sd cards
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] plant100:
Thanks for that, i was sure that because all three cards were created and failed within the same phone then at least one would unlock, is there not a method to take out the present sd card swap with the locked one, run the storage unlock reboot then reformat but not necessary in the order as i have tried that and it hasn't worked, i don't have access to any other phones and really need the increased storage and a card to run some android SD builds. In respect of the last question if i was to get a compatible 32gig card could i just swap it out with the 2gig or copy the 2 gig partition and put in on the 32gig without having to go back to 6.5 and do the update all over again... i don't know... i am a bit lost with all this and its a steep learning curve..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] plant100:
Thanks Robbie, just what i was looking for will give it a try and let you know how i get on.. you answered my question in the middle of me typing it.. strange!!!!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] plant100:
Just a quick update to say that those instructions worked a treat, I how have more storage a few extra cards to try out some SD builds before I take the plunge for the dual boot. I think where I was getting confused was the difference between the (1234) hard rest and the hold vol - & + buttons while turning on the phone on reset. Robbie once again many thanks bro…
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Moschino02:
Wow I didn't think it was possible to save your sd cards after they been ruined through failed attempts...

I thought the unlock tool was only useful for the sd card that successfully upgrade to mango
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] plant100:
Yeah me also, that’s why I have been pulling my hair over this for the last couple of weeks, but it does work…. it’s just fining the right procedure and because all the cards were created on the same phone (EU Leo unlocked TM) I think that makes a difference. The other two cards I now know are incompatible so they have become my storage for android SD builds... I don’t think people are aware of this, maybe it should be a sticky or something… with credit to Robbie
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Moschino02:
hey plant man, can you just clarify something ..

do we send dev_unlock.cab after step2?

storagelock tool?? where will we find this on the phone?

step 4 - when you insert another corrupt card into phone would phone load up ?

i wonder what are the reasons behind step 1 - does this vary depending on what type of sd card memory you have?

luckily i borrowed a sony vivaz but needs to go back and i havnt got mango yet..i imagine this trick would work on all versions ie 7403?

off the topic..cab sender option 'B' anyone know if this would restore to orginial state ie 7004 if cab sending failed? to prevent from reflashing 7004 all the ***ing time

sorry for the questions...i cant do anything without understanding things first

hey plant man, can you just clarify something ..

do we send dev_unlock.cab after step2? no just send once

storagelock tool?? where will we find this on the phone? you need to send it as a cab file with the cab sender tool can be found on the main thread

step 4 - when you insert another corrupt card into phone would phone load up ? yes for some reason when you do a hard rest

i wonder what are the reasons behind step 1 - does this vary depending on what type of sd card memory you have? i have no idea maybe robbie might be able to advise

luckily i borrowed a sony vivaz but needs to go back and i havnt got mango yet..i imagine this trick would work on all versions ie 7403? again not sure

So, Broinlaw just got a huge grant (20K) from some art foundation as an achievement award. Part of that award is for putting his work into digital form which he still needs to do. He needs a computer now.

My brother in law is a great guy with awesome skill but he doesn't know the first thing about computers. He's asking about Mac but I've never owned one, besides I'm sure his needs will be far different that my simple web surfing.

Since many things of interest on this forum play well into both the computer arena and the artistic realm, I figured I get some very good feedback.

What do you use, what do you recommend? How ever you want to attack the topic is fine with me.

When I say he's an artist, I mean it in pretty much every sense of the word. He'll take a new medium and make it his. I expect he'll do this with a computer too. I'd like to see it anyway.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to express your opinion. I appreciate it.

Are all HTC Desire Z phones rootable right now or are some unrootable ?

What is the sense based desire known as on the forums and what is the vanilla based desire known as. I was under the influence that HTC Desire z is the sense based and the Tmobile G2 is the vanilla based phone but i have seen people say HTC vision, htc g2 and htc desire z when they refer to both the sense and non sense based phones.

Thanks,

Vision is the model name, so it includes both G2 and DZ.

DZ is a WorldWide Sense one, and G2 is the T-Mobile AOSP based one.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] i9apps:
Its really annoying, its work very slow on portrait mode
[Eee Pad Transformer General] uploder:
nope, mine works fine. give us a little more info. you stock, custom rom, rooted?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
they run slower in portrait becuse of how tegra 2 renders the screen

"And if the slowdown in Honeycomb portrait came from a bug in the nVidia driver?

Honeycomb on the tablets are much less fluid in portrait mode. It would be a bug in the nVidia driver (Tegra 2). While you wait impatiently all the famous complete test of the Motorola Xoom, you should know that Honeycomb is not always very well optimized. On Android 3.1, the situation is improving logically, but is unworthy of what can be found on smartphones. This syndrome is especially noticeable when the tablet is in portrait mode to landscape and sometimes reversed. Initially, we thought it was the system itself, but in reality the problem could be different.If you notice, the shelves on this version of Android use, for now, all a nVidia Tegra 2 (Motorola Xoom, Acer Iconia Tab A500, Asus EeePad Transformer …), the HTC Flyer will soon have access to the Qualcomm processor . The generalization of the problem as coming Honeycomb system would be false and in fact a driver problem!

A bug open since April 4 (the Motorola Xoom was in 3.0.1), we can read this comment in particular the flow of responses:

“As I said, this specific problem is not related to Honeycomb, but the GPU’s Tegra 2, which under certain conditions (portrait mode) is not able to offer the same kind of performance that landscape.

We should wait for a new driver from Nvidia or something similar that will fix the problem. ”

This answer was arrived May 15, just for the Google I / O, which was expected as the 3.1 correct the problem. Unfortunately, it is not. Since the time that the bug exists, it is very likely that Google holds a patch for this driver. But how is it that he does not send this patch, while the image on the shelves Honeycomb is heavily tainted?"

It will usually boot with touchwiz kernel but most of the time 3g 4g touch screen and calls wont work that is why u need aosp kernel .

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] h20wakebum:
I rocked Miui on my OG EVO 4G almost exclusivly.

Having finally jumped ship to a stock phone (I rooted ;-)) there are some concerns with going back to miui:

1) NO 4G!!!

2) On Evo, there was no 720p recording with Video... I'd hope we can take advantage of our 1080p cameras!

3) DATA WAS SLOW

That's it... If those 3 things were fixed I'd be happier than a stuffed pig!!

MIUI PROS:

1) customizable like no other!

2) smooth

3) Clean UI

4) overall fun to use

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phelanz34:
Read the thread over and over again, and skimmed through the Q&A forums, couldn't find anything.

I went from an earlier build of DarkSide ROM to the v2.0, which, while still retaining Motoblur, it skipped the setup, and as far as I can tell, I have nothing to do with it.

Before, I was able to click on Accounts -> Other Accounts, and add Facebook to my contacts list. It would sync with the contact lists I already had, with a few outliers that I manually fixed.

With the new build, the other accounts -> Facebook option is not there, until I install the app. Even then, in the accounts window if I click on Facebook it does nothing. In my contacts list I don't see any information other than what was in Google.

Am I missing something here? How do I get it to re-sync contacts with FB, or was that phased out? I'm reading a lot of conflicting information, so I am pretty confused.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu3Fr0g:
Coming from the Touch Pro 2 and the Windows Mobile side of things for the last decade, I am wondering if there is something like PPCPimBackup for Android? This was a small little utility that would back up SMS/MMS/Call Logs/Email/Contacts and some other settings and files when specified. I kept a copy on my SD Card so that when / if I had to take my phone in for repair, I could backup everything before I handed it over to the Sprint Tech. Now that I am on an android device, I would like to find something with similar functionality. My E4GT has been experiencing the random screen taps / touches that someone mentioned a week or so ago and I want to take it in and have them look at it and want to make sure I don't lose my call logs and sms logs if they should want to factory reset or replace my phone. Any suggestions for a free application?

I have used pim backup when I had my TP2 but never had the desire to find something like that here. With google all your contacts are backed up on goggles servers. T

Also if your phone is rooted you can use titanium backup for your Apps or just do a nand backup through recovery and back up everything.... ROM.. Contacts.... Apps.... Mesages.... Emails ect.
