[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] krekol:
I would say no to dust being the problem. I would think if there was something between the keypad and the keyboard it would make the W more sensitive.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ilprofesionale:
Yes, this would make sense considering that the photos I looked it makes it seem that the click mechanism is sealed off like a blister.

Perhaps sticking a piece of electrical tape in there would make it more sensitive!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ilprofesionale:
Still thinking about how to fix this. any more suggestions would b great.

Is better to install sd or nand android ? :D:confused:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rubledub:
depends highly on your preferences ... do you 1. like having winmo 6.x (and warranty if applicable) 2. want only android as main OS

both have pros and cons. personally i like having android on NAND because its more native (turn the phone on and it boots right into android as if it came factory installed) and windows mobile 6.x is a dead (officially no longer supported by MS)

one might prefer SD to have more freedom and ease switching between rom builds.

the decision (and intensive research on how to accomplish either SD or NAND) is ultimately up to you.

GOOD LUCK :-D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] redplate:
Definitly NAND :P as long as you dont have an app running under WinMob only.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] verita5:
Of Course Nand, work a lot of smoother and who needs WM 6.5 :p

Maybe if you need WP7 you can make Android on SD:rolleyes:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fad25:
I prefer sd
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kezmdor:
Since WinMo 6.5 is rubbish and you can do everything with Android in a faster and smarter way of course NAND is your choice.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] adchesney:
I had this same question - I have an application that only works on WM6.5 - So I guess I will need SD?

Now I have to choose a ROM - Can anyone point me in the right direction - I want something stable, fast and not too much updating.

If you want try SD with Sense, look at this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1171237

Fast, stable, all work well. But not last version of Android...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mar3ek:
If you don't plan on using both WinMo AND Android, I would definitely recommend NAND.

I tried both approaches and NAND ROMs are simply faster and more responsive (NAND memory is usually faster than SD).

If you are an HD2 Android beginner, you might first try to use an SD version to try things out and get the feel of the Andorid OS (SD builds are easier to install).

Then, if you decide that pure Android is the way to go, you can switch to a NAND build.

There are ROMs that are maintained in both SD and NAND versions - for example the AmeriCan Android, which I use and am totally satisfied with (SD: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1209474; and if I remember correctly, there should even be an Ice Cream Sandwitch version in the works).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] johann2204:
i chose sd only if i try sonthing new. like the ice cream sandwich. but imo is nand the right one.

So im a not so newbie here and have picked up a fair knowledge of all the basics etc for my sgs2. Now its time to learn how to create my own ROM. I have played with dsixda rom kitchen and feel reasonably comfortable with that, with sucess' and failures lol.

Can anyone guide me to the software, links to good threads that will help get me started. Self learning from there on.....

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
I would suggest you download a public ROM repository to start working with, such as CM7 for example, to be able to touch any aspect of the ROM as well as learn the structure, compiling options, etc.

Check Cyanogen Wiki the page of Building from Source to get the full repo for it.

The source should build without problems, then once built, you can start tweaking and adding/removing things from it. This would be a port of CM7, but there are many other public repositories to start from, but CM7 has the most documentation about it.

If this is too hard for what you're looking for, I don't really know if there is an intermediate step between ROM Kitchen and this one...

thanks for your reply, i will have a look into this and see how i get on.

[Off-topic] donharden2002:
It seems to me that as Android grows devices are getting harder and harder to unlock the bootloaders and flash roms on. I would think it's due to carriers and manufacturers locking them down.

I miss my captivate days when it seemed like new roms were coming out every other day just about. Now it's a crapshoot to choose a phone that might get good dev support. I like htc phones but they are getting almost impossible to play with, and pickings are slim for att users. I know the best way to go for flashaholics is to probably buy Samsung phones but it's nice to try other things every now and then.

Just some thoughts of mine.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
Ok people, I don't understand any of this. Does anyone care to explain to me how this ext4 thing works and how should my phone be set up?

first of all running cwm5 and ICSunday2

At first I partitioned my phone with cwm5, make a 800mb partition on my sd card. Then I used Titanium backup to move my apps to SD card. I set up from CM settings to install apps to external... now all my memory keeps getting full with time. With that partition I don't think I gained anything just lost almost half my SD card capatity.

my current memory according to Titanium:

system rom: 81/216 free

internal: 65/187 free

sd card 684mb/1.1gb free

Also CM settings sais that the device deosn't have expanded internal storage...

Can anyone help me get back to square one and guide me from a clean slate??

Cheers

P.s. while updateing apps i get storage full warning.... :mad:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SpaceCaker:
Download s2e this will help
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
will this detect all my apps and put them in the correct place? including them ones already on the sd card moved by titanium?

EDIT: great it just put me in a boot loop, fkin awesome

Edit2: restoring -_-
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SpaceCaker:
I used this on all my phones on my galaxy s i had 724 apps installed and on ace ive got353 apps it will put everything like cache apps etc in your ext
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
yeah i got that, except that the app got my phone into a boot loop... had to restore from cwm
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adeklipse:
I'll try to explain (CMIIW):

Firstly, the option in Titanium Backup and CyanogenMod settings refer to native Apps2SD, i.e. the one used by FroYo up. It will move data files to your partition under /sdcard/.android_secure/ and/or /sdcard/Android/

a2sd, however (such as DTA2SD, Link2SD and S2E) takes ALL the files of an application and puts them in the ext4 partition, then creates a link (a shortcut in Windows terms) in /data/app/ (and other concerning directories).

My personal favorite is Link2SD, because you chioose which apps to link, what files of the app to link and supports FAT, ext2, ext3 and ext4 partitions.

I have yet to try S2E.

Sent from my GT-S5830
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
OK, I get it. Thanks. But will it move the apps from the sd card that the titanium moved?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
I tried the apps, both move the apps to regular sd aprtition not to /sd-ext

someone tell me what to do step by step, not "download **"
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adeklipse:
"Both apps" as in Titanium Backup and CM7 Settings?

Okay, I'll try to give you directions to use Link2SD (if you want to use another app, that's fine, but I'll only post instructions for Link2SD for the moment):

1. Download and flash CWM 5.

You've done that, right? Okey-dokey, next step

2. Partition your SD card with CWM.

It's recommended to backup then format your SD card in order for it work optimally. After that, boot into CMW and partition from there. I don't remember where, but it should be under the "advanced" option.

You'll get a prompt on how large the partition will be (I recommend 512MB; it's more than enough). After that, there'll be a prompt on the swap size; you should choose 0MB if you don't plan on using swap, otherwise pick ~200MB.

The created partition will use the ext3 partition; DTA2SD and S2E (AFAIK) don't support ext3, but Link2SD does.

3. Download/install Link2SD from the Market.

Pretty straightforward there.

4. Open and set up Link2SD mount scripts.

The first time you open Link2SD, there will be a dialog on what your 2nd partition filesystem is. As stated above, it's ext3, so pick ext3. After Link2SD creates the mount scripts, reboot in order to be able to start using it.

5. Pick apps to move to sd-ext and set up Link2SD settings.

Sidenote: you can't move system apps to sd-ext, for safety reasons.

You can batch-link your apps to sd-ext by: Filter icon (the kitchen funnel thing; don't know what it's called) > User > Menu button > Multi-select > Menu button > Select all > Menu button > Actions > Create link > OK. By doing that, all your apps will be moved to the ext partition.

If you want to automatically link to sd-ext every time you install an app: Menu-button > Settings > Auto-link.

Hope that'll work. Link2SD never fails for me (except for that one time when the mount script didn't work, but that was because I selected the wrong filesystem type; user error).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jokerman170:
thanks for the guide. earlyer today I got a little problem I used the link2sd but i selected ext4, i moved the apps, but they went to the normal partition. i deleted link2sd and used s2e, s2e worket but only transfered the apps from my phone not the ones from my SD card that link2sd moved.. now any app i try to install or move the phone reboots... or sais that i have not enough space on my phone to copy back

any helps with that?

edit: ill just restore my backup and start over

So I went into Verizon and played with the Nexus for a little bit. Honestly I'm not to impressed with it. It does have some neat things about it but not a game changer, and I have better things to spend my money on then a 700 dollar phone.

[LG Revolution] zman6900:
I just bought the Nexus - came from the Droid Charge I love it. But I guess if you don't like it, you just don't like it. IMO, there's not a phone out there to compare it to except possibly the SGS II.

Let's see, it is not the most powerful phone out, it is not the only one with a 720p screen, ics will be out for many others quickly, so I don't see how it is the best, and there are others that compare other than the sgsII. Lg's newest is more powerful than the nexus.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
The LG hd is really nice and they'll bring another version to Verizon

I like the galaxy nexsus just because of the ics and solid screen but I'll wait till asus bring out the tegra 3 padfone in 1st qtr of 2012

Just messed around with one too and got the same feeling. Not all that impressed. Same goes for the XYBOARD too.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
That thing looks bad ass plus it ships with 2.3 so an upgrade to ICS is in the cards.

I played witht the Nexus yesterday too... It made me sad. While the phone looked awesome and ran amazingly the battery cover was impossible to get on.. (it was off when I grabbed it) the thing that Verizon puts on the back to tether it down pulled it out and idk what happened...
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I played with the Nexus yesterday and was highly impressed.

1. Fast. Really fast and super smooth.

2. AOSP - Straight up stock android with almost no Verizon apps.

3. A complete stock image is already available. One of the primary Google devs released the stock image so devs can play and not brick their new phones.

4. Rooted and boot loader already available.

5. Love the shape and it is super light.

What is not to love. I understand your love for your phone but the Nexus is a superior phone in every aspect. It is like comparing the Nissan z370 to a twin turbo charged GT-R...

---------- Post added at 08:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 AM ----------

By the time it is available the specs will be average, as was the case with the Revo. It should also release with ICS. At this point any flag ship device should now be releasing with A4.02
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Mmmmmmmm GT-R
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
I would never compare it to this phone lol. That's just silly. But while I was very impressed with it I wouldn't fork out the money to get it right now. I would wait to see what else is coming out and all that. I jumped on the 4G bandwagon really fast and I got this phone. While I love this love and the community I will never do it again. Something will be out soon with equal or better specs than the Galaxy I'm sure.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
While I partially agree, I would get this phone just for the fact it is pretty much straight android. It has minimal Verizon perversion in it. The problem with this all is there is always something better coming but at this moment in time, this phone is the seksay. If I did not have an aversion to Motorola, the Razr looked pretty hot in white yesterday as well.

What I really liked about the Nexus was the gallery app. It was incredibly fast. It loaded the pictures almost instantly into thumb nails and opened the full size image even faster. I really was pretty impressed with the phone. Being a person that is generally neutral towards technologies, not getting emotionally attached to say a cell phone or a computer brand, I really liked the Nexus, but again as you mention, in 3 months... something even more sexy will capture our fancies.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
I'm more inclined to look to the future because my contract isn't up til like 2013 lol
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
Same here, no point in getting worked up about it. My wife just got an early upgrade... Wonder if I can talk her into letting me have it :P
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I have 3 lines. I still have 2 of my 3 upgrades so I can change out at any point.

I may hop on a nexus in February, or I may wait till next summer, giving the revo a full year. I will however from now on wait for 30 days after release to purchase a new device. Get a decent look at where the community is going, what level of development, etc...

H.
[LG Revolution] indyred99:
The one I messed with the home screens seemed to lag for me. I'm not saying its not a nice phone but not a fan if it. My phone feels faster on my home screen. I didn't get a lot of time to mess with it had to get Christmas shopping done. I am still perfectly happy with this phone and what we have for it. Guess its a matter of style, just a wouldn't spend my money on it.

Also I won't compare phones. This phone does everything I need it to with no issues.

[LG Revolution] S.Meezy:
It's awesome. Until the next big phone comes out in 6 months... the revo was a great place holder. Carry on!
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
I wouldn't suggest getting anything right now. Dual 2ghz processors are just around the corner, maybe spring time. I also wouldn't suggest an LG phone. After the first revolution, I will never touch another LG android ever again, no matter how good the bells and whistles sound.

Besides it being new what are you really gaining. Tons of apps don't work on it. Besides folders and multitasking I don't even know what I'm really gaining. And if I have to lose one feature my phone has now ill pass. Phone works too good right now and ics theme will hold me over for a long time.

Thanks to the informative Android blogs and tons of videos, most people know why they want ICS besides having a new look. As for your Ipad and losing jailbreak, you probably should have read in advance to see what features iOS 5 had before taking the plunge. I remember reading multiple times that people with jailbreak should hold up on iOS 5 until an untethered jailbreak is done. But hey, this is about Android :)

What I'm really waiting for is a nice AOSP ICS with everything working. I am less enthusiastic about TW ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] djjosh:
One of the videos showed better app controlled , limit or block apps from background data
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zoidpilot:
Hmm... OP you should consider the fact that ICS source was only recently released and I think the Nexus Prime launched just today. Of course not all apps are going to work you have to give app developers time to update the apps to be compatible. It's not all going to happen overnight that's why these things take time for the transition. Although I'm a little disappointed that TW covers up some features, I am looking forward to:

*Scrollable widgets

*The swipe gesture to remove notifications

*New notification bar Info slots (i.e. when you get a text you see the contact pic)

*Face Unlock (even though it can be bypassed it's cool nonetheless)

*Camera Speed

*New widget placement UI

*New Cool Blue Look

*The drag and drop feature to make folders

*How the app market stays in the app drawer on the top right

*The minimalist layout of all the Google Apps

*A few other things I'm sure everybody knows by now...

Not to say that you have poor judgment, I do advise reading up a little more on the updates before you jump in and discredit them for changing anything. I think Google is actually just trying to make Android more accessible to more than just Devs, if anything at least give them credit for that. :)

If you want an entire list of things that are new and how they work, read this review (Personally I think it's the best review that covers everything) it's 7 Pages!

Guys all I'm saying is it seems like alot of people want ics just because and are foaming at the mouth for it. Isn't alot of your apps not working kinda a big deal. People should just calm down enjoy gingerbread for a few more months.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Improved multitasking is enough for me....a better looking OS.....speed.....better hardware acceleration...more efficient......data monitoring.......ability to block certain apps from accessing data and last but not least.............camera app (that thing needed updating)

ICS is what Android needs to be to fully compete with IOS the only real threat(since Isheep see differently). I am not too anxious to see TW and Sense on ICS :(

I remember when iphone first came out my buddies back in college were saying look at what I can do.....I pulled out my cingular blue razr v3 and said check this out....made a call lol

Just gotta wait till the apps are updated thats all
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] move_over:
I have to agree with OP,to a certain extent. A lot of the new features are incremental, and I think you can duplicate most of them with already available apps/mods. Not to say I'm not going to flash ICS as soon as a good rom comes out, but I am pretty satisfied with how my phone runs now. ICS is the first step to integrate the Android phone /tablet os, like ios ,and will be much better as it evolves.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aimbdd:
Only if your hiding something?

Sure, you may be able to replicate some of those features with other apps, but thats the point... it brings these features to stock android.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zoidpilot:
Although I do see your point, the OP asks why I want ICS. I'm entitled to my opinion right? and I noticed the majority of the things you quoted and responded to have to do with modding the system in some way. How about having it all in one package and not having to download a bunch of apps to imitate what should come stock in the OS.

And what's wrong with a little "extra glamour" ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crzchn:
I just want stock Gingerbread with better battery life and no CarrierIQ. I don't know how much faster people need these little computers to be but the E4GT is fast enough.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Also, OP, to address the app issue you brought up:

I don't know how many apps you all have installed, but right now I have a little over 300 installed:

Every single time I check on "my apps" in the market lately, I get notifications to update some of them...

Why?

Almost every one lately has been for this:

"Added support for Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich..."

Those app devs aren't going to sit around and not include the API 14 compatibility to their existing apps, because it'd be future income they would just be throwing away.

I really don't think that's gonna be an issue you need to worry about.

Just my 2 cents.

Sent from my bowl, my spoon, and a noticeable lack of Ice Cream, which will hopefully be remedied soon.
