Hmm, you need to simplify it further for simpletons like myself.

What we need is a step by step (and I mean step by step, i.e. every single thing you need to do to your phone no matter how obvious) guide on what to to from downloading the app, to ending up with a partitioned SD card.

So, e.g, I have an 8gb SD card, I have some data on that card, I wish to make a partition of 1gb for the EXT2 part, and 7gb for the FAT32. I also dont wish to lose my data.

Should I manually copy my data to my computer, then format the SD card and run the app, or is there a built in thing in the app to backup the SD card (on what though?) and allow you to transfer it back after the partition?

Some questions to clarify (which is why the step by step guide for idiots is needed):

1) do you download the app via the app store, and install it on the phone, or do you download the app onto your computer and transfer to your SD card via USB cable?

2) Do you need to change the file (you say you MAY want to remove the .txt. extension, that a yes or a no?)

3) save the file to somewhere in your path? What does that mean? and where exactly?

4) How do you give it 'execute' permissions? By typing in "chmod 777 /data/local/bin/sdsplit", where do you type this in?

5) are all of these instructions carried out in the command / dos type area of the phone, where you can type in these controls? I am assuming so.

These are just some of the things I do not understand (sorry for my ignorance), which is why we need someone to really clarify the whole process so even a monkey can follow it.

I hope someone has the time and inclination, since I am really pissed of with the android since I ran out of space on my internal memory, makes me want to throw the phone away.
[G1 Android Development] G1-evolve:
Please be step-by-step specific please. :(
[G1 Android Development] Lieu10ant:
yeah :( i have the same questions as him ^^^^^

i have an 8 gig sd card. i want to have my EXT2 to have 800 MB and the rest FAT32. how much do i give the FAT32 portion?
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
First of all, THANK YOU! This is just what many people need. Great job on making it as simple as possible.

I too would second the request to give us a step by step directions on using this (ie press this button and then....(have to say this in Homer Sipmson's voice))

I could most likely figure it out myself but I don't want to take chances, especially since my card is alrealdy fomatted and works, I wouldn't mind changing the size of my partitions at some point but don't want to take risk of losing 110+ apps..

Once more, BIG THANKS for this piece, I'm sure a lot of people will use it.
[G1 Android Development] faithnolonger:
Martin I just want to say thank you on behalf of the community.

I reset my phone this evening and tested this out on JF rc33. It's brilliant. You've done a great thing here.

I hope you don't mind but I've posted a how to over on the android section of nokia apps at the request of a few users! Of course i linked to this page and gave full credit!

Hi, just wondering if anyone elses' phone is having this issue?

On the lower left edge of the screen, there seems to be a small gap. Although it's not a big issue for me, it still makes me wonder if mine is the only one that has this issue.

I've attached 2 images that to show what I mean.

I think other than this minor issue, I've really come to like this phone a lot and have received numerous nice comments about it. And to most of them I've stated that this phone is not actually available for purchase locally (in Australia) through normal channels.
[S740, S743 General] keeee:
the gap is normal.

mine is the same. i am from singapore.

this phone is fantasic, compared to diamond, touch pro and xperia. previously i used those phones before
[S740, S743 General] SJ@XDA-IIs:
It's normal as I have observed the same on mine.
[S740, S743 General] Alexx_B:
my phone is the same

but I have an engineer version of rose (different keypads etc) and I think that this problem was solved...
[S740, S743 General] Weezphili:
same here!
[S740, S743 General] willl:
Thanks folks. Interesting to hear it's not juts mine.

But still, it's a little disconcerting to see the gap. I know if I press lightly on that edge it'll "close" the gap temporarily.
[S740, S743 General] nightcrow:
Same problem here; my S740 has light leakage on both sides. The left side of the device seems to have more than the right side. Looks like the front panel hasn't been glued well or something?
[S740, S743 General] larsoss:
same over here in the netherlands. Only not so big as youre phone
[S740, S743 General] unkown:

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] RandumAccess:
I have found that if your photos are 320x480 and you set them as wallpapers the wallpaper will not move over the 3 screens. It will stay and not stretch. Very cool! So this leads to posibilities of making a theme with the status bar fully match the wallpaper if done right
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] soloxp:
I been doing this for over 3.5 months now...all so if you look in my theme post you see where I said with these wallpaper make u think ur icons are floating.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] RandumAccess:
nope didnt see where you said it.
[G1 Android Development] samrozzi:
ok I have a rooted g1 but I need to use adb shell log into g1 and remove ahome, or use adb uninstall mobi.bbase.ahome to uninstall it. Someone told me this. how do I do this. I am such a newb and its an EMERGENCY. How do i access adb shell? my phone is F***** and I need to uninstall something but I cannot access my g1 because it keeps force closing.
[G1 Android Development] tubaking182:
gee i wish there was some way that a person could quickly look through the old threads in this forum so that they could easily get the answers they need when they need them. something like a search function but more defiened by only looking for certain words like "setup adb" or "android sdk" all within a certain forum of this great site. hey mods would you mind making something like that for this site? i hate reading through the site from front to back looking for a specific thing, it causes me to be an absolute moron and post a new thread which makes other members mad for posting the same thing a hundred times. thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nooblet:
Okay so I barely post on here really but I lurk in the forums from time to time, and I have posted about this one but I have started skinning Salling Clicker, to look more like the remote app for the iPod Touch, but Im having a problem, with well, the program. Seem that it wasnt so touch friendly after all, the navigation buttons on my Touch Pro are tiny, and was wondering if someone would point me in the direction on how to fix this, possibly make that bar a bit bigger, and how to enable finger scrolling in the menus?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fuze_freak:
hey guy I own a HTC Fuze and is loaded with NATF v4.5S Rom and the color are amazing, but my diamond VGA color are too bright and doesn't look too real.

Any suggestion on what is causing that?

I thought it was the original rom I loaded with shak 4.0 ROM, but no luck.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Hamido123:
i know that the diamond got two different types of displays

when white appears yellowish then you got the bad one

hope it helped
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fuze_freak:
Well it seen to be my case, but the question is one bought it jusst 3 days ago in best buy just i return it and chance it for another one? and see if is not yellowish before walk away from the store with it.

or thats not a big deal and i can still use it with no problem? or is going to cause me problem ?

thankx for the advise..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] R3PUBL1K:
When the Diamond was launched - it was in mass demand with a few different companies make parts for it. HTC recognise some screens are not up to standard and will replace the faulty part if you contact them or alternative bring it back to the place of sale for a replacement.

Good luck
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fuze_freak:
Thanks I will contact HTC
[G1 Apps and Games] mat_pav:
Can anyone post a download link for RoadSync (Beta) since a lot of us don't see it on the market.

TNX
[G1 Apps and Games] ExploreMN:
That would be awesome. It seems like they won't get it back up till May 30th and it deactivates May 31st. I read some article somewhere it has something to do with the way Market operates. However, I don't see DataViz working very hard to resolve the issue. Nothing should take this long! So yeah, if you have the app can you post it? It shouldn't be a legal violation as the app is free and in beta.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] frankbalzan:
Hi there!

I have decided that I need something more business oriented for my diamond's today screen, so I am using Manilla control to work with pocket breeze (in order to get best of both worlds). Now what I need is a plugin which works well on my diamond, pocket breeze and manilla control and gives you time, missed calls and smss. I have tried to install the HTC Home plugin but i had to hard reset the phone ... since it did not want to get past startup! Thats why I decided to ask this time...

I m sure you have plenty of options and ideas ... maybe you could post a screenshot too of the application you propose...

Thanks,

Franklin
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sh500:
I'm in the same situation as you, I don't think you'll find a solution to directly integrate PB into TF3D. You'll have to change to another user interface that supports 3rd party plugins eg. Wisbar AD and a few others.

It's a shame HTC didn't include 3rd party plugin support in the new TF3D 2.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] frankbalzan:
Yeah

Yesss... I know that you can't use both ... what I am asking is what plugin (3rd part) is compatible with manilla controller (used to switch between touchflo and today screen) and pocket breeze to add some phone info!

You mentioned on program there ..are there anyother ones worth mentioning? I wanted a HTC Home Plugin sort of effect (missed calls, sms and a clock)

Thanks for any replys.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sh500:
Well for notifications, missed calls, SMS, Emails etc I use PhoneAlarm by PocketMAX, the latest version has many different types of skins etc and itself is a fairly powerful program.

http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html

And this is an alternative one:

[G1 Apps and Games] heldc:
So, now that Google decided to limit what apps are available to what markets, is anyone working on a market app that doesn't ID what carrier/country the phone is? Or one that lets you spoof what carrier/country your phone is? I don't code, so no idea how hard this would be. Just curious if anyone's looking into it.

I'm having problems with my omnia. I wanted to upload a new rom but when you start your computer to resering. Now only the red lights on and nothing else. Even the computer does not see it .. I tried to raise the "Grandprix" but it can not open a connection to the omnia. Do you have any ideas or just a service I was?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
hi guys.

am building my own roms these days. not totally noob but not an expert as yet.

actually i have seen many roms which have the initials of the person who cooked the rom in the splash screen on the bootup.

like you get RGD

where R is radio

G is something and

D is the OEM or ROM version.

like swtos roms have swtos written on there, aztor and IOR Morna as well.

how to do the same?

i've attached a picture though its not clear but just gives an idea.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
help me someone please..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] deeren:
you can use a hex editor , or u can use xipportex.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
but what do i need to edit using hex editor or xipportex??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Prinz069:
Just open the file and look for the string you want to change
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
well am not sure if what am gonna ask is really dumb or not but have no choice.

1st of all am not able to find hex editor and xipportex.

and even if i do then what file do i need to open to change that version?

how to use hex editor and all??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
actually am using bepe's kitchen and for that there needs to be a proper XIP folder which i could only find in MORNA's XIP.

now i've added the 21038 build files to this xip but do not know what to edit to change that oem version.

my complete rom build 21038 is done and am just left with this.

Am attaching the xip folder so if anyone could change the version to " 2AHEN MAKK", i'll be really thankful to you.

Eagerly waiting for your response as i need to release the rom asap.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] deeren:
you need to edit the s000 file from nk.exe folder whic is located in the oemxipkernel with a HEX EDITOR.

The version number can be found at values around 3500.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] deeren:
here it is . i've noticed it's from xor morna. be sure to give credit to carburano when u release you rom.

good luck.

http://www.4shared.com/file/96538355/f0e7d17b/XIP.html
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
sure broda. thanx. will check the xip and let you know.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mr. Makk:
hey. i just checked it. there is a mistake. what you have edited is "22AHEN MAK"

but i want "AHEN MAKK".

thank you very much.

[P3600 General] MrMush:
This is the problem, i have a p3600 and the battery won't charge anymore, when i put it on charge the orange light blinks and the icon onscreen says the phone is plugged and the battery is charging, but the moment i unplug the battery goes to the charge level it had before.

i had the phone with standard factory settings, just the official upgrade to activate the gps and this started happening, i read some hints online that said to make a hard reset, i tried and it worked, the phone was working alright again and the battery was loading as normal.

I then tried to update with a cooked rom (lasagna full) and the upgrade went perfectly, except for the fact that the battry problem has returned, i tried to ard reset again with no luck. the problem is still there... what can i do except flashing again to factory settings ??

1st time I solved by deleting mail database wich resides in the cemail file that's in the root of device (use totalcomander), keep in mind that this deletes also mail accounts.

2nd time it happened, I solved by deleting another SMS from manila interface.

since I applied the SMS fix to 5.04 it didn't happen again.

HI all.Already five days I got home the phone with China's navy much I enjoyed it, but I just had a great sense of helplessness. From the first day I have with this phone problem: after about five minutes of operation to stop responding touch screen or soft reset helping jse since I do not even hard reboot (press and hold volume up button + camera and then use the stylus to do reset). So I excluded the battery for about 5 minutes after that time I re-inserted the battery into the device and turned on him when everything started to work so I found an item MASTER RESET and then I made it proceeded normally, but up to the display settings when I finally managed to set the display (approximately on 10 attempts!) and again the phone worked well. then I try to delete the original touch Flo, but unfortunately it did not too. when the device is put in stand by mode and turn on the device after the display was not functioning again. Then I thought to try different combinations of key presses to obtain a hard reboot. Finally, I managed to find kobinaci functional buttons: I dragged the button at the same time receiving a call (GREN), and click the camera and I have soft reset then whole screen changed color to blue and make the hard reboot, unfortunately, I stopped at the display because the touch screen does not respond anything! Did not even remove the battery! Please ask for help, please

Do you use MIO 350 with this device but I never had the slightest problem and to use non-original rom

[Touch GSM General] sundar83:
hello there. for you and anyone else with china htc problem this is the solution for it.

go to this page and download the IMG file called "update.img" from this link

then follow this steps.

1. Format your HTC memory card (Micro SD card), so it will be clean.

2. Move the update.img (you already downloaded from the site) to root directory of your Memory card.

3. Press Volume Up button on your htc and while keeping it pressed , press the reset button.

You should get the blue screen telling the update being downloaded. Wait for a while and it will tell that Update is successfull and your phone will be rebooted.

THis is it.
[Touch GSM General] mildisek88:
This I have already tried, but without success. The combination of pressing volume up and press the soft reset using stylus on my device does not work!

I only managed to make hard reset but it was an interesting combination of a call button (green) and the camera button and then using the stylus, I made hard reset the whole screen changed color to blue :( . On my device, which was served on the operating system was installed WM 6.1
