[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TubThumper:
Actually I think the weather app was responsible in the first instance but it's off now.

Just doesn't make sense that it would not switch off.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
What do you mean? If you switch it on, it stays on. Just switch it off when you're done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TubThumper:
I guess what I mean is that if a device has push email functionality is doesn't make sense that when it retrieves it, it doesn't go offline.

I'm manually connecting now and that seems to be working.

Thanks for the help so far.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
If you enable the connection, it will stay enabled. There might be some app like mortscript or something that will help you automate this process, but if you manually enable it you're going to have to manually disable it, short of what I mentioned above.

HTC made a good... solid... hard to break... phone... HTC made a high budget phone, for its hardness... its HTC's Vision...

but not every phone is perfect.......

today, my friends phone began to freeze... ALOT! he restarted it... and the freezing continues... until he booted recovery, wiped everything he could wipe... and reflashed the ILWT CM7 261, but *dramatic silence* the phone responded with an error... so now he can't boot his phone anymore... its just stuck on HTC logo...

so we chatted over the guys at the IRC, and they said that my friend's emmc chip was fried...

and thursday (24/11/2011) we'll send it to HTC for a fix (hopefully)

even when the phone is not rooted... the emmc could just break down and stops working...

so thats a big problem HTC didn't care about it and had over 1 million user to replace their emmc for free (warranty)...

Its just a type of flash memory, after all. And there are really only a couple big companies that manufacture memory chips, and of those Samsung is the largest supplier. They supply the MicroSD card on our phone too, remember.

There is a lot more incest within the smartphone industry than most people realize. It hasn't been disclosed by Apple, but most suspect the memory on the iPhone is also supplied by Samsung. That's why its a bit strange that Apple is shooting themselves in the foot by attacking Samsung with lawsuits regarding Galaxy S phones, tabs, etc. Or maybe Apple is just intentionally playing a very careful game of chicken.

Hate to invoke the i-word and the A-word, but just a real good example how Samsung chips make it into lots more things than most people realize!

Here have a fun and informative post about fraud in the microSD card industry which tangentially relates to samsung supply/demand issues.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
That's true, forgot about that. I also didn't know they have switched to Hynix as the main supplier of memory for the 4S, with Toshiba also a supplier, and still possibly Samsung on some. Before the 4S, Samsung was the main memory supplier. Its actually the touchscreen I was thinking of, for which the manufacturer is unknown.

Yeah, I saw that mentioned in some places, but was confused why it doesn't say that on the second link I posted. Maybe the component itself was not market by LG on the phone they tore down.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bogdan5844:
Actually if you look "closer", you'll find that many devices are a "cocktail" of many many many pieces from different companies.

The thing that the brand-company does is match these so that they work perfectly.

Take laptops for example - A no-name chinese laptop may have the same specs/chips as a pricey brand-name one, but it's quality will surely be lower.

By that logic, even the Samsung chips we find in different manufacturer's phones aren't the same. Maybe Apple wants better quality chips, HTC wants ones that can be overclocked better, Samsung makes the ones for theirs to use less heat, etc etc (you get the idea)

I actually was kinda amazed when I learned that my Asus laptop is in fact made in a HP factory in China with pieces from a Taiwanese branch of Samsung. :rolleyes:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a.mcdear:
OK.. is there any way to determine which app is using this, or is there a way to read the information it is collecting?

I am not at all against crash/error reports or feedback to help out developers, but security and transparency are also important to me and I'm having a hard time getting more information about this service online to figure out more of what it does for my "mobile experience"...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crittercism:
Hmm you could look for an app that has a built-in support forum but unfortunately, you probably can't figure out which app is using it since the data is encrypted and sent through SSL. That being said, I can ensure you that the data being sent securely and is being anonymized and aggregated. I'd be happy to give you an overview of what's being sent and how it's being displayed to the developer. Send me an email at rob at crittercism.

COM.CRITTERCISM.SERVICE is an external crash reporting aggregator. I was curious as my battery usage has recently spiked (grrr.... can't see obvious...) so I've been scanning logs.

I think it's used by Astrid and probably others.

Don't think it's spyware.

[Xoom General] ssss25:
Hi,

I've got Xoom 3.2 and I wanted to perform a backup. Clockwork 4.0.0.4 is what it says is the latest. I also have an Ext SD.

I did a backup as I usually do it from recovery, but it took too long... I reboot and I saw that I was running out of space, already 2.5GB.

My questions are:

- Is it trying to backup the entire Internal SD card?? That is about 30GB of data! I have a Nexus one and I am used to it just backing up that system to external SD? How can I do the backup on xoom without it backing up my Media and music and the big game data?

- Is there a way to make it back up to the External SD card instead of internal?

Will performing a WIPE wipe only system, or will it also wipe the Internal SD?

Thanks,
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Yes, that version only sees the internal "sdcard" and will try to make a nandroid of it. You really need to install/reinstall the solarnz R4c Version 3.2.0.0 which was made specifically for the Xoom or at least the Rogue recovery which is based on v 4 but is also customised for the Xoom. As it is, you will not be able to flash from your internal sdcard either.

See, newer isn't always better.
[Xoom General] ssss25:
Thanks a lot for the info. I tried to get 3.2.0.0 but when I went to Rom Manager, and looked under the other versions, there was no 3.2.0.0. I guess I have to download from some website and install?

So, say I go and I install 3.2.0.0.

It will see the External, I don't see any setting to specify where backups should go, will 3.2.0.0 aautomatically backup to external sd?

How about what gets backed up from Internal? Id on't want it all backed up!

Thanks, :)
[Xoom General] ssss25:
So, I used 3.2.0.0 and backup went a lot better. Thanks :-) it backed up to my external. The size is 2.5gb out of an internal sd of about 20gb.

I just need to know what it backed up from my internal sd and what it didn't?
[Xoom General] ssss25:
One more thing :-) rom manager now only sees the backups on the internal.. so I have to restore from recovery since backs are stored on external.

Just a bit screwed up this whole thing :-)

Both recovery and from manager should have options to let user specify where to back and restore.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I actually stopped using ROM Manager for that reason.

CWM recovery backs up your system image. To further back up apps and their associated data, use Titanium Backup.

And doing a restore from the recovery menu is correct. You can use ROM Manager to get into recovery as long as you don't get tricked into "updating" to another version of cwm recovery.
[Xoom General] jerrycycle:
You could also fool clockwork to thinking it its latest version flashed. This way you can still use rom manager if you choose and still have the latest modded custom recovery.

1. Open Superuser and "Forget" ROM Manager.

2. Open ROM Manager, and Flash ClockworkMod Recovery.

3. After it downloads, it'll ask for superuser. Uncheck "Remember," and Deny superuser access.

4. Go to /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/, and rename the file that just downloaded to [whateverItIs].img.real. (The next step will be easier if you copy the filename first.)

5. Copy the x. x. x. x to this location & rename it to whatever the new ROM Manager download was called.

6. Open ROM Manager, and Flash ClockworkMod Recovery again.

7. This time, Allow superuser.

why you need root explorer to do that ??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] prateek_gemini:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BNAS:
Dude.. To eliminate system apps you need root explorer. Default is R/O not R/W.

Restarted... Wiped cache, wiped davik cache, still no go. Used Nandroid to restore to a prior ROM I was using (Cog x2). Now it works. Found out that write protection on the SD partition was set to S-ON. Had to restore to a different ROM to get it back online. Super user was not granting permission to Root Explorer with Stock deodexed rooted ROM. Strange. Anyway, maybe someone else will come across this same issue and know that it is ROM related to write only partitions.

Thanks!

Hello. You want to mount r/w on your SD CARD. Madman is right. It's always r/w on the card.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniudavid:
Hi there. I hope that some dev will see this and probably got an idea of what is going wrong with my Sensation. At one day, some weeks ago, I went to work in the morning and switched off my wifi for this time. As I got back home I tried to switch it back on, but it only says activating for something around 20 secs and then says fault. I tried nearly everything like restoring a backup, cleaning everything but nothing helped. For the possibility of an exchange trough my carrier I unrooted, switched to s-on + original ruu. It didnt helped. As they said that it would take time over the weekend, I thought that I wont get out without "my" phone..;) So I rerouted, switched s-off and restored my backup. And TADA, my wifi was working again.. But after Updating the Rom, HyperSansation, to the last release v0,8 it broke down the wifi again. :`( Hmmm... I have repeated the whole process again and it worked again. Even with trying a new Rom. But as I came home from work today, the fault was back...

Can anybody help me out of this case?

No seriously, battery life is very dependent on many things, and your statement doesn't come close to providing enough information for anyone to give you any real help. At minimum you need to provide the following during your 8 hours ...

- Total Display on time

- Brightness setting

- What you have auto syncing and how often

- Average signal strength

- Usage pattern (web browsing, calls, streaming video, etc.)

- Widgets on your home screens

- Screenshots of your battery usage and graph
