I've finally installed a custom rom "B 0.8.4 based on stock HTC FroYo" which is excellent so far.

I'm repartitioned by SD card to use A2SD. I understand that I should move apps back from 'sd' to the phone, which is reality is now the SD ext partition.

I've got some apps that are phone only e.g google maps. I've used on stock rom, Titanium backup to force move to SD to free up space. Is it worth doing with A2SD ? These apps are still sat in internal phone memory as far as I can tell, is that correct ?

Do any apps report memory sizes correctly with A2SD installed ? Android system info doesn't show up the new EXT partition for example.

Search in market: "free space", download & install.
[Legend General] NX3:
Freespace, thanks got it. It doesn't recognise the A2SD ext partition but its a neat app.

This app reports A2SD correctly.

anyone know the surface hardness for our screen's? i'm still in shock mine is deeply scratched already. screen protector will arrive 1 week too late
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tikerz:
It's Corning Gorilla Glass so you can go to their website and download the technical data sheets if you want to know.

http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/characteristics
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ARTAQaf:
no mention of "surface hardness" there.

anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jb0nd38372:
What happened to get your glass scratched?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimocal:
I noticed slight scratches from the stylus on mine. My screen protector was a day late too, D'oH!!! You'd think that the stylus wouldn't scratch it :confused:

If you're looking to get rid of minor scratches you can try some 3M polish like this person tried. I'm thinking about getting some to get the screen back to a more pristine condition and re-apply the screen protector.

**EDIT**

Using the info that thread of gorilla glas = = alkali-aluminosilicate may yield better search results. I found a PDF that has some info but no direct surface hardness mentioned in the paper.

Also the gorilla glass wiki has a range of different hardnesses: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorilla_Glass
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
Through all my own anecdotal evidence, I've come to the conclusion that a portion of corning's production method leaves something to be desired in terms of consistency. Throughout the internet, threads can be found that go something like:

"I thought this pos had Gorilla Glass!!!! It scratches way to $$&*% easily!!!:mad:"

"My phone has been through hell with no case or screen protector and no scratches! You must've done something unreasonable!!!"

I've seen this everywhere, about almost every phone, and have come to this conclusion. Even my own g glass phones have varied wildly in scratch resistance. I still prefer having gorilla glass, but I do think it's a bit hit-or-miss.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] EvoXOhio:
i had my phone for 2 days and it got 2 scratches just from being in the pockets of my sweatpants. i took it back to best buy and got another one and had them immediately put on a screen protector.

the glass isn't nearly as scratch resistant as my HTC inspire. i had it for a year and only had 1 scratch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
My note has been through worse and is absolutely perfect! See my previous post :).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
The 'scratches' from your stylus are most likely in the coating on the surface of the glass, not the actual glass. Even regular glass isn't scratched by plastic. Rubbing some finger grease into them should fill them back in. I've noticed similar behavior on my Infuse, and they tend to go away as oils from my fingers fill them in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ARTAQaf:
my scratch is deep enough to feel with my fingernail...i dont think the 3M polish is meant for a scratch this deep from what i read on the link. thanks tho!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimocal:
I tried that and they still didn't go away. With the screen protector on though they are not noticeable. When I re-fit/replace the current screen protector I'll double check the "finger grease" theory :cool:

I had this problem running miui, cm7, and now I'm on unnammed. I've used all the modems and still nothing helps. I thought unnammed didn't have this problem? To fix it I haft to flip to airplane mode and back, then its fixed.

Sorry if this has been asked. I'm on taptalk on my phone and I don't know how to search with it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Could be APN settings. I don't know them off hand, but they are listed in post 2 of the miui thread.

If it happens on multiple ROMs it could also be a bad SIM card. Does it do it on pure stock? If so, try a new SIM card.

ok, thanks. ill look them up. this issue is making me want to switch back to my iphone, but hopefully this will fix it cause i like android, just this is getting old
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
Are you talking about wifi or 3g?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Are you using any battery saving apps like Juice Defender?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
This. I haven't seen this issue reported often, and in the past, it's turned out to be an app interfering with the connection. If not, it's likely an apn issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
I've had the same thing happen to me on other AOSP roms too. On both the SGS2 and my captivate.

I just switched to iscrewed to see if the prob is still there. Its hard to reproduce the bug, but it happens when i go from either:

1. being connected to wifi for a long time and then leaving that area, mobile data doesnt turn back on

2. being in a bad service area for a long time, and then leaving it, mobile data doesnt turn back on.

The worst thing about it is i use google voice for texts, and thats usually how i can tell that it cut out, because i stop getting texts from people.

I love android and google, but honestly if problems like this dont get ironed out, then as long as the next iphone has a decent size screen im probably switching over.

FYI this has occurred when i had the bare minimum installed on my phone, and i never use any ridiculous battery saving apps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Have you tried a new SIM card? My problem was similar, and followed me from one phone to another as you describe. New SIM card fixed it right away.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
Wow, i didn't even consider that.

I will be trying and will report back. If this fixes it i will owe you my life!

I might have to switch back to cm7 just to name sure it's the Sim card that's causing it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] randrewm97:
ill try this out tomorrow. just now when checking my email i had to turn on airplane mode and back off to get data to work.

also, i tried the apn settings on the first page of the miui thread and it didnt work. i tried those settings on miui, wiui, cm7, and unnammed but they all made it so that my internet didnt work at all.

so just to clarify, i shouldnt haft to change apn settings and my phone shouldnt be doing this on non stck roms, right? sim is likely the problem? this has gotten really old really quick and its embarrassing when im trying to show my friends something but my phone isnt working.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Your phone should work fine on any ROM you find here. Mine does. I never have to play with APNs, even on miui. I never have to play with airplane mode or power cycle. But, when my SIM was bad I would drop data connectivity all the time. Calls would fail (outbound only), and other glitchy reception issues. Sometimes airplane mode fixed it, sometimes power cycle, sometimes airplane mode on, power cycle, and all times it was temporary. Its worth a try, shouldn't cost anything to get a new SIM. If they give you trouble at the store just tell them you called 611 and they told you to go in for a new one. If that doesn't fix it go warranty route for a new phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] estxxas:
Those APN settings have worked fine for me on both CM7 and every Sammy ROM I've used. I always have (unrelated) problems with MIUI, so I can't verify that one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
So i went today and got a new SIM. Its been about 9 hours, but no problems yet. Time will tell if it works, but im willing to bet that was the problem, and this is why.

When i went to get my sim, the guy there told me that when ATT started rolling out 4g phones (which includes 3.5g) many employees had trouble with their data switching on and off until they switched their sim cards.

Then i started thinking to myself - I've had the problem about as long as I had my SGS2, and only had the problem with AOSP roms on my captivate - then i made the connection.

When i used a stock, or stock based rom on my captivate, i had no problems. The second i used an international ROM, or an AOSP rom is when i would have the issues. What is the difference between the roms.............

The ATT rom doesnt have hspa+ enabled, so using my old "3g" sim card i was fine. No 3.5g to connect to to cause problems.

CM and international Roms would use that new 3.5g network and would then screw up.

That is my theory anyway, and if it turns out true it would have solved one of my biggest annoyances with android. (or at least my android experience)

fingers crossed :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] randrewm97:
i too went in and got a new sim. my phone service actually quit working before going in. id get calls and i could hear them but they couldnt hear me. i replaced the sim and all is good. where miui would hang and data would freeze and id haft to redo the airplane mode trick, it would just hang for a sec or 2 and then start downloading again. ive only had it hang 2x now and i think its because it might be switching from hspa to 3g or even wifi.

so for the sim card thing worked. if it fails in the mean time, ill come back to this and give an update. thanks for suggesting it being the sim card cause i wouldnt have thought of that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
I'm another day strong without any problems. I don't know of its due to the new sim or because i switched to a Samsung based rom. I should switch back to test, but I'm loving the speed of icsrewed right now.

If i had to guess i would say it's due to the sim, and if so, there should be a sticky somewhere that says to make sure your not using an older 3g sim card. Would have saved me months of aggravation.

Will report back after a few more days. In a week or so I'll switch back to cm to see if it fixes it there as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
That's one reason I generally buy my phones at the att store (authorized reseller, but dedicated to att phones). Usually they will price match, and they know things like that. My SIM went bad when I had my captivate. Later when I upgraded to a faux G phone the att rep knew I would need a new SIM, and replaced it then, even though it was only a month old. They also knew the "3G" data plan needed to be converted to a "4G" (still unlimited) plan on their system for me to get data.

You don't get that kind of assistance when you buy at Walmart, online, etc.

Amazon Mobile just sends you a new simcard anyways lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zynine:
Interesting, maybe next time if my data refuses to work I should bug at&t for a new Sim card. I had problems on different roms including stock rom where I had to turn off and on my data or else it will not work. But I think my modem might have played a role. Data seems fine now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
If you go directly to an AT&T store they replace it for free.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
Yup just show up. They shouldn't charge. as long as your an att customer theyll take care of you. I've never heard of anyone paying for a new Sim. If you lose your Sim I've heard of them charging people, but i doubt they'll charge even then.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
They only charge if you go to a non-AT&T store.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fmstrat:
Hi all,

I'm sure this is in the forums somewhere, but due to the billion mentions of "registry" I haven't been able to locate it.

Is there a tutorial anywhere for programming the reading and writing of registry keys? I'd like to develop a UI to provide XDA members to adjust the Bluetooth services that are associated with each paired device to enable dual pairing on unlocked phones (I.E. a UI for this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1517029)

Thanks,

Ben
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
It can't be done directly with C#, because there's no managed (.NET) API for registry access on the phone. Instead, you either need to call into a native DLL that you wrote and exposed through COM, or you need to call into an OEM DLL that calls an OEM driver for you. The first approach requires writing, or at least having access to, a native library written in C++. It will also run only with the permissions of the app, which is insufficient for writing to the registry on stock ROMs (unless elevated with something like HtcRoot or WP7 Root Tools 0.9). The second approach requires device-specific code and the ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES capability in its manifest.

For a simple app that uses the second approach, see my MultiTaskToggle app (linked in my sig). Note that this app only needs to read or write a single registry value, so that's how I wrote it. If you want to enumerate registry keys and values, you'll need to use the COM library approach for reading. There used to be a great set of COM libraries for "hybrid" managed/native apps, but most of them were never updated for Mango compatibility. The only one I know of that currently support registry access is used in Schaps' apps, Registry Editor and Advanced Config, and those tools are closed-source (although, with a .NET decompiler, you could probably figure out their APIs easily).

I see alot of member's signature's with Military comments, so I wanted to take a minute to say hello and introduce myself! Some things to clear the air......

1. I was never in a war.

2. I never killed anyone.

3. I was never in Special Ops!

4. I have seen an A1 Abrams Tank, HUGE! (They would not let me play with it!)

5. When I was a member of Division Schools, I signed up for B.U.D. School. My black ass lasted 2 hours before they kicked my ass out!!! (Did get free trip to Hawaii?)

6. I went to Team Sprit in South Korea in 1982. I found that my peepee dont work at 30 below zero!!! Even if you get hooker, your stuck!

7. I tried boxing one year. Round one I beat the crap out of Puerto Rican in Army. Round two, I beat the crap out of him again. Round three, I was too tired to lift my arms, I tried to run the Puerto Rican took a liking to my ribs. I lost!

8. I went to jail twice in Japan. Once, we were all riding in a Duce 1/2 heading to Kadena Air Base and we had bright idea to all try our gas mask. Japaneese PoPo did not like that joke!

9. I did J.E.S.T (Jungle Enviroment Surival Training) in the Phillipines. It took them 6 month of canceellation before they put me in this one week course. I walked the streets of Subic Bay for 6 months! One thing I did learn, If you do not eat for 3 days, everything taste like chicken!

10. Getting around a Aircraft carrier is not as easy as one might think!!

Speaking of Aircraft carrier's, if you seen that movie with Owen Wilson "Behind Enemy Lines" Where that aircraft carrier is out at sea alone, that filiming is BS! You will NEVER see an Aircraft Carrier alone unless it's docked!!! It's pack of support ships, destroyers, sub always leaave first to support it. Same with reverse, That carrier docks first before anyone comes home!

I have family in virtually all branches of the service and its fun to sit around a camp fire with them (having a few beers, of course) and listen to some of their stories. Its amazing the things that they have seen and experienced.

My favorite story is the one my grandfather tells about watching the guys raise the flag on Iwo Jima. He as down a little ways on the hillside when it happened and says that it was a pretty powerful experience. He was in the Marines. In fact, they invited him back to Iwo Jima not to long ago to reunite with other Marines that fought there. I don't think there were many of them still alive. To this day he doesn't want to go on a cruise because he says that he has "spent enough time on the damn ocean." :p
