[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
You make a very good point about computer having 1-4gigs of ram and not needing a swap file.

Honestly I almost never run a swap file on a computer that has more then 1gig of ram.

Plus90% of the time when I do run a swap file is when Im running a live distro of linux of a cd, but also 90% of the time I run the distro from the flash drive instead of cd cause its much faster.

So now imagine how many reads/writes I abuse that flash drive with by running a full OS on it.

Also I don't understand how a2sd or swapper is flawed? Just because they do their job? I mean it's not really our fault that they made the G1 with a little less memory spaces then we would like it to have.

But that's exactly why we have tools like swapper and a2sd. Plus no one is really forced to run these roms on the G1 phone and those of us that do realize that we have to take extra steps in creating tools to help it.

And that's not only true for the G1 but anywhere in the computer world these days.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
I'd like to spread swap over the sd and internal storage if possible -- should make paging a lot less evident if priorities are set up properly.
[G1 Android Development] MonkySlap:
internal memory is faster. class 6 guarantees 6mbs read/write times but doesnt mean the bus can support those times. if you run a test copying something to /system/sd and to /data you will see /data is faster. as for those saying it will degrade the internal memory, that is not the case being the flash memory inside is designed to have much much much more read/write cycles. Think about it in a stock G1, this is where dalvik-cache is writen to as well as email, sms, user settings, cache for browser and uTube. Do not confuse internal flash memory to sd card flash memory :P
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Are you sure about that? This guy has some test results and it indicates that a class 6 sdcard is much faster than the internal flash.

[G1 Android Development] MonkySlap:
That's interesting. Going to have to try that test out. I just noticed when xfering stuff to /data it was faster then to /system/sd. If it is then touche my friend.....touche

Ok, I know there are several threads regarding this issue but none answer one simple question.

Which devices record BOTH sides of the conversation using software like VITO AudioNotes or the like.

I have tried several devices with NO success one of them being the Sony Xperia 1, which was posted as a device that recorded conversations.

Basically my question is, Is there a device that records BOTH sides of the conversation at a reasonable volume level? If so which ones are they?

Thanks for any responses.

I'm about to buy an Elfin this Sunday, and after some googling, I want to clear some things up.

1. What is Manilla2D?

2. Should I install Onyx as soon as I get my phone, or should I wait?

3. What's the difference between TouchFLO2D and TouchFLO3D?

4. Is it possible to 'install' TouchFLO3D to an HTC Touch P3452?
[Touch GSM General] tito12:
1. What is Manilla2D?

It is a theme which comes with most WM6.1 roms, search this section to get more skins http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260&order=desc

2. Should I install Onyx as soon as I get my phone, or should I wait?

You should read first a lot, Onyx WM 6.5 doesn't have Manilla, WM 6.1 yes,and especially how to flash in the stickies here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=374

3. What's the difference between TouchFLO2D and TouchFLO3D?

Elfin doesn't support TouchFLO3D

4. Is it possible to 'install' TouchFLO3D to an HTC Touch P3452?

Answer above

Enjoy Your Device :)

Manilla2D = the Diamond Style.

3D= The Cube, 3D Touch Style.
[Touch GSM General] x86:
argh double post
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Manilla2D is basically a downsized version of Manilla3D.

and by the way, if you are looking for the HTC touch cube, its not longer available at any other phones, except for the touch and the dual.

More info about Manilla2D avail here

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=opera&rls=en&hs=Nqb&q=htc+touchflo+2d&aq=f&oq=&aqi=g:s4
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
@jeremy: Wait, from your link to google, I take that you mean mean Manilla2D is the same has TouchFLO2D. But tito12 says it's a 'theme'.

And does the HTC Touch P3452 have TouchFLO2D?
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Manilla2D(M2D) is TouchFlo2D!

Nonono!

M2D has different themes for you to choose, and the themes is developed by our xda-developers community.

HTC Touch P3452 dafault handset does not have M2D, you have to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 in order to enjoy M2D.

Here are a few pointers.

1) You choose to upgrade either to

- HTC Built ROM, which is their upgraded version

- Cooked Roms, which is made by people just like you and me, but they are usually more functional and practical. And Most people recommend cooked ROM as the HTC Built rom which is commonly known as stock roms, is underpowered and have too little applications. (And lags .. blabla )

One such cooked rom is Onyx and the one I am using.

Which can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=426540
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
Yeah I read about Onyx. I'll use the stock ROM for a couple of months, and then look towards Onyx.

This is what I've understood.

Elfin with WM 6.0, neither has TouchFLO2d, nor Manilla2D. If upgraded to WM 6.1, it will have Manilla2D, but it still wont have TouchFLO2D. To get TouchFLO 2D, we have to install a separate thing. And Elfin doesn't supportd TouchFlo3D.

Am I right? I'm confused because jeremy89632 says M2D has different themes available, and tito12 says M2D is a theme.

EDIT: Here, Is this the actual interface of an Elfin with WM6.1?
[Touch GSM General] tito12:
Hi Cyanide

I should have used "interface" instead of "theme", and this interface can be skinned, there are many on developpement and hacks section.
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
Okay, so Manilla2D is an interface that comes with WM6.1 for the Elfin? And,here, Is this the actual interface of an Elfin with WM6.1?
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Yes, manilla2d is touchflo2d.
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
Okay thanks a lot for the help

This is slightly off topic, but I just want to ask all the Elfin/Elf users here, how do you guys like your phone? Would you recommend it?

EDIT: Also, I read another thread 'http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=531260' in which the guy's phone turned out to be fake. Since I'm buying a used one, what all should I check before purchasing it to ensure it's authentic HTC?

Tips to get a legit HTC

Buy by walking in, not online.

Get from legit sellers, like big time corps.

See if the box have HTC logos and windows mobile logos around it.

Check for warrenty.

Thats all.

Im pretty happy with my elfin, except it lags GPS.
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
Umm, what do you mean 'lags GPS'?
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
HTC Touch Elfin and Elf does not have GPS.

Or known as the global positioning system which tells you where you are.

If you want to get a GPS for your elf, you must pay around SGD100 or around US$60 or even cheaper if you get from ebay.
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
I know it doesn't have GPS. You wrote it 'lags' GPS, so I was wondering what you meant. You probably meant it 'lacks' GPS.
[Touch GSM General] cyanide911:
Anyways thanks a lot you all, I finally bought it.

I'm avoiding making a new thread, so here goes.

How do I format the memory card? Will simply connecting the phone to the PC in data transfer mode and formatting it from there do? Or is there some special method?
[Touch GSM General] tito12:
Congratulations :)

Just insert it and start explorer to see that it is visible
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
I dont think you need to format memory card, its usually pre-formatted.

So its pretty good.

i cant imagen this supject hasnt been handled yet, but i am not able to find anything about it. i think its more a Windows Mobile problem then a HTC diamond problem (but thats just the phone i have atm).

i would like to be able to see and ajust my calender while on route, setting up the mail wasnt really a problem but i dont see any settings i can make for the calender.

at work we have a server with Windows Server 2003 and MDeamon running on it for the mail and prolly the calenders (but i aint very much into servers and stuff like that). the computer person at work doesnt really wanne pay attention to it, the think i should just come to work in the morning and sync with a usb cable. if that doesnt work i should call him again.......

Should i use a different calender or is there a way to change the settings?

How many times have you heard a rad song on the internet or on the radio in your car and wanted to download the song to your phone with Amazon and alas...No wifi!

Many of you already have this because I released it on Twitter last night but I have tweaked the Amazon app to allow you to download music over a regular data connection. No more need for wifi....

This tweak was again made possible by JF smali and baksmali applications which can be found here

Here's the apk: Amazon

Make sure you rename the file...take the dash out and put a . in.

You will need to install this with adb simply push it to /system/app and it should do the rest.

adb push com.amazon.mp3.apk /system/app

This should work on all builds.....Enjoy

While I don't really care for amazon.mp3 (actually that's the first thing I do when I flash the rom is delete amazon, voice dialer and IM) but I still would like to thank our XML god for this and HTC Music player hack (which I love and use daily). I think everyone should donate to Stericson immediately because he is the nicest guy around here and his work is used in EVERY rom and EVERY theme. Besides, he has to pay off that fancy wedding of his :D.

Could you apply your considerable talent, smali and baksmali to get Exchange Sync to work on all / most builds? That is an application that I would use. And I think there are a lot of other people who would like to have it as well.

What do you think? Do-able?

Does htc dialer include incoming call screen or is that a separate hack? For some reason I can't find any reference to that :confused:
[G1 Android Development] Stericson:
Seperate hack, that uses the phone.apk made by HTC, however I am quite sure I can replicate their incoming call screen, outgoing call screen, and ongoing call screen without too much trouble....but I will probably focus on that later....

Depends......

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcan:
Hello all,

Is there any way to add an application button on the dialer skin, that could be launched during a conversation? For example, one could launch Vito Audio Notes directly from there, instead of having to go through Programs.

Unfortunately, Topaz does not have hardware buttons to map them and have a direct launch from there, so the next best thing would be if there was a way to add a software button on the dialer skin...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcan:
Regarding Vito, I was advised to use Calls Autorecord, so there is no need for a specific app launch button. Still, it would be interesting to know if there is a way to mess with the dialer buttons and map them to run an app.
