Is it possible to change the check email frequency on the Gmail App to 30 minutes?
[G1 Apps and Games] carnegie0107:
No.

The Gmail app doesn't "check" your email. It just sits there, idle, until the Gmail server contacts it and tells it that there's a new message. (well, it's slightly more complicated than that, but that's the gist of it)

The question is... why in the world would you want to change that? It would use much more battery and data to be checking all the time, even when you have no new mail, than to just let Google's servers push it to you....
[G1 Apps and Games] androidmonkey:
Well, as long as it takes the same amount of power to get all the emails in an hour pushed vs getting them synced at the end of every hour.

Say I get 60 emails an hour. Does it take more power to push an email every minute or to just download all 60 emails every hour? Guess I cant test that.
[G1 Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
etiher way the gmail app doesnt let u do that. you can set it up with the work email app to fetch your mail at set intervals. the work email is usually present in most of the roms like cyanogen's or other various ones.

Hello!

I bought a MyTouch 3G and I'm shopping for a new ROM. There are so many and I'm truly confused. What is the best Sense UI for the 32B and is it really worth it?

This forum has always been a hard to use source of information, so I'm asking your help and I will write a guide in return :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] oshizzle1991:
i prefer SENSEHERO. its the fastest, smoothest hero out there. the theme is pretty sick too. you already have root though right? fyi, a lot of good 32B hero roms are actually in the dream section, i frequently browse both! because on here, its more 32A orientated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shoemeistah:
From my experience ROMs with Rosie are not that fast on pvt 32b board. Donut 1.6 is still faster and more stable to me. Although I like the Hero Sense UI contact application.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DMaverick50:
i agree, when i had a g1 I really liked rosie/sense at first, but no matter how hard the geniuses here try, the g1 just doesnt have the RAM for sense ui, period. And TMobile inexplicably gave the MyTouch the exact same amount of RAM as the g1, so i havent bothered trying sense i got a mytouch. even TMO's newest Android only has 200mb RAM, still not enough for sense and it even lags with stock Android.

Id like to know the business strategy of testing their customer's faith and patience like this

[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Hi,

I seem to be fairly happy with my HD2 in terms of sound etc - then again I'm not all that picky when it comes to volume :) I can hear it and the volume control gives me a good ranges of options from quiet to loud so happy days! :)

However, when adjusting the system volume from the main home screen (and btw have mine set to the default 'single volume' setting) for each up/down tap I make the chime/beep it gives is terrible sounding - like the speaker is completely knackered! That said, when the phone rings / nav directions / txt message alert / speaking to another person on the phone it seems fine.

Anyone else noticed this?!
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Hi,

Like most (all?!) I'm looking for the holy grail - more time away from the charger for my HD2! :)

As per my previous HTC Diamond I'm thinking a good way to help me on my way is to switch to 2G most of the time and then to 3G (well, AUTO to be precise) when I'm actually doing something that requires the connection (surfing / steaming / pulling down a few Mbs of email attachments etc). While some might say this shouldn't be necessary, tbh it worked for me previously.

I used to do this via a slider on the CommManager thingy. However there isn't one on the default HD2. Is there an easy way to make use of that extra space at the bottom of the interface?! Any other suggestions to easily achieve this?

Thanks in advance..
[HD2 General] jrvenge:
Comm manager does the job
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Hi - thanks for the super quick reply!

Could you possible explain exactly how I get the built-in Comm Manager to display this missing slider? I've looked around and can't seem to find it!

(thanks again)

There's also a cab floating around that will insert that option in the Comm Manager.

I will attach it here - I hope the author doesn't mind.
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Thanks for the above. I had a look at this before (and again just now) - looks good, but doesn't quite work 100% on the HD2 yet.

- using flight mode breaks it (seems to disable it even when you've come out of flight mode, never to work again unless reboot);

- the disconnect idle connections bit breaks push mail, so I have to turn this feature off when using push and then back on again when not using push - would be much better if it could auto-detect on the fly;

- a few other random bugs

All in all a great effort (HD2 version hasn't even made beta yet - still dev build!) so no complaints, instead I await a more HD2-finished version with interest.
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Ah just what I wanted - ALMOST! :)

Being picky.. this replaces the Push Email slider with the 2G/3G one.. now I use this Push Email slider quite a bit, so ideally (for me at least!) I'd want it to replace the bottom one (the WiFiRouter option - hardly ever use this). OR, better still, to add an additional option onto the bottom in the wasted spaces.

Can this be modified?

(thanks again)
[HD2 General] LordK:
Yes we em... it can ;)

But you have to edit the Registy via Total Commander or another RegEdit Tool.

The requried regkeys can be found at:

HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\

There a several SubFolders numbered from 0 to x.

Those SubFolders are the buttons in the CommManager.

Each Folder contains at least a <default> key which contains the command to run.

You can reorder the Position of a button by renumbering the folders.

If you want to add a button (e.g. you have 6 Buttons but want 7, you'll find 6 folders numberd from 0 to 5), add a folder named 6. Step into this folder and add key named Default (type is string). Aferwards add a value to this key (e.g. MobileWifiRouter or 3G). Afterwards you have to change the <SupportedFunctions> Key in the root folder of the CommManger from 6 to 7.

To get back to your "main problem"...

To re-enable the Pushmail Service Button you have to add the following key/value pairs to a numberd folder.

Default = AUTD

Execute = \Windows\repllog.exe

ExecuteCommand = //remote

Aftwards restart the CommManager (or better the device) and you should find the Pushmail Button again.

also it wont let me add new folders there, it says already exists??
[HD2 General] Marshall1975:
Hello

The easiest way in my opinion is to go into the windows folder. Copy the file cmbandswitch and paste it as a shortcut in the programs DIR. You can then assign it to a quick link on your home page. Works a treat for me. Just select it and the menu to change from 3g to 2g or to auto pops up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Lemmy120:
I'm running Cyanogen's 4.2.7.1 already but wish to partition my sd card to take advantage of swap, ext3 etc, Do i need to re flash the ROM after the partion is created for the ROM to recognise the partitions and use swap etc or can this be done after the rom is loaded.

Sorry to be a tard but still fairly new to this game, hope this all makes sense!!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 2Noob4U:
You should be able to do it after the fact or before. It really shouldn't matter. I used AmonRA's recovery image and the options to partition your card are right on the recovery screen. They are standard settings if you want to change them (ie. ext3 to ext4 or amount of swap) you'll most likely need to run the SDK from your computer. I used a little program called sdparted. I know they make an app for swap space, but you can change it from the SDK also. Hope this helps.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Lemmy120:
I'm using Amon Ra's recovery so AFAIK sdparted is intergrated into it. So do I uninstall all my apps then redownload they, Will they install in the the right partition? Not exactly sure I fully understand the concept as yet...

[HD2 General] zoimt:
Hi everybody!

Just got my Leo two days ago and I was bombed. Had a 4350 before and you can imagine what big a difference that is. But now this occured and I really don't know what the heck is going on here. Without any reason the Leo froze after not using it for two hours, just an active sync connec. So I grabbed it and it was frozen. Thus i did a soft reset. When it rebooted, for some reason it seemed like the first time I started the device, asked me for the time and google settings etc. Very confused. But then I came to the Homescreen, which was blank, just like after a hard reset. Ok, I thought. This is nasty but all my stuff was backed up, so what. I tried to switch to the settings panel and found it ultra super slow and the settings panel wouldn't even appear on the screen, just the title on top. I thought, this is wrong, very wrong and decieded for another soft reset. And now it won't boot at all. It stands still in the screen where it shows this pink circle and the RUU and whatnot version.

I am speechless. It just doesn't start, tried it like 4 times now. I didn't update RUU or anything since this thing is T-Mobile branded and it wouldn't let me. I tried it this morning but just got the error in windows that my device won't allow... After that I took it for a 3 hour ride outside and used it for like 10 more hours. And now this!

Has this ever occured to anyone else around here?

Any suggestions? I'm quiet angry right now, think I gonna return it tomorrow. Hopefully they don't say I tried to flash it or whatever since I did not. Cannot explain this to me.

Regards,

Zoimt
[HD2 General] marty41:
hi sounds like bad news have you tried a hard reset
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
Do a hard reset, press the up and down volume then at the same time press the power button. Keep all three pressed for about three seconds and a hard reset will start. If it happens again you have a faulty device.
[HD2 General] zoimt:
I thought a hard reset is only possible in windows. Since I never come so far in booting process, I just tried it once but nothing happend. Not sure if I tried it for 3 seconds I assume I did
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
Take the battery out then put it back in. Once it's in press all three buttons at once until you see the hard reset begin. It will ask you to confirm by pressing the up volume button.
[HD2 General] zoimt:
Oh boy! It started again! I thought I tried to hard reset it with the key combo you also adviced me and nothing happened but this time it worked. Thus I assumed it only works at a later point in the boot process. But thanks for showing me the opposite!

Man, this takes a load off my mind, thanks! Just hope this was a one time thingy and doesn't occur every 28 hours again.

zoimt
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] AlandisN:
Okay. I've had my T-Mobile TP2 since the day they released in NA. I did a little of messing around with cabs and themes back then, but then kinda left the scene. I'm back now, and have quite a few questions. If you could answer ANY of these, I'd be most grateful.

Is there a way to uninstall the crappy Opera that comes with the phone? The 10 beta is infinitely better.

Is there a way to change the bookmarks that are listed on the Launch Browser tab? Or did Windows just assume that every person likes Youtube, CNN, ESPN, and Facebook?

What is causing my phone to slow down so badly? When I first got it, it ran like the roadrunner, but now its chugging at everything. I delete my texts and photos on a constant basis and the device has over 100mb onboard memory left; most of my apps go to my SD card.

Is there a program as good as Google Maps that supports voice, turn-by-turn GPS other than Nav4All? [which I hated]

Is there any Facebook apps that are as good and CURRENT [where's my like button, clown?] as the Blackberry/iPhone apps? If not, what is the best one available?

Is there anyway to zoom on the Camera...? The T-Mobile Dash [HTC Excalibur] had several levels of zoom, and this seems to have none?

On the camera question, there is a zoom capability, while in camera mode, slide your finger on the zoom bar and you will see another on-screen zoom bar come up and the image should zoom in (depending which way you are sliding your finger). All of this is digital zoom though, but the feature is there.

I was looking for a way to put swap in the /cache partition. Finally was able to make it work by setting up a loopback device.

When searching, I couldn't find that anyone else had posted this before. Any thoughts on the pros/cons?

dd if=/dev/zero of=/cache/swap bs=1M count=32
mkswap /cache/swap
losetup /dev/block/loop2 /cache/swap
swapon /dev/block/loop2

I did determine though that the internal ROM is not faster than my class 6 SD card.

time dd if=/dev/zero of=/sdcard/test bs=1M count=32
32+0 records in
32+0 records out
real 0m 7.20s

Thanks WB for this excellent overview - certainly more down to earth and focused than most reviewers who don't know what to expect in HTC phones.

I too had a similar experience to your TYTN when I purchased my Polaris. Mine nearly took a high dive from the 30th floor of an office block when I got it. However in February this year, I installed epimazzo's KhanX ROM and didn't touch it again given how stable and usable everything was.

I've been watching the Leo forum closely for the past two weeks and I can see some of the top cookers hovering and waiting to pounce (oh, Hard SPL, wherefore art thou?). This device has so much potential and is so exciting that I purchased mine sight unseen.

The bugs and wrinkles are...ahem...par for the course if you buy a HTC phone these days. To my mind, there is nothing that appears insurmountable to the ROM chefs (respect). As I said, the phone has monstrous potential - seems like a solid GPS implementation plus the accelerometer, compass and proximity sensor. Bingo!

I had the option of going for any of the Samsung Omnia II, the Acer F1 and the Toshi phones. But none of those has the depth of support found here on xda (only iPhone comes close in community support). HTC owes many people on this forum in a big way - without it, probably you and I would have sh_tcanned HTC years ago...

And for someone who is always fiddling with my phone every day, the possibility of squeezing performance out of this thing is half the fun. May not suit those who need a perfect phone OOTB (like the iPhone for example:eek:).

[HD2 General] Toss3:
It's still in its beta stages so the software is bound to get faster once they've sorted out the minor bugs. I really doubt Sony would release it in its current state, but considering HTC released a device without proper texting support and awful call quality I can't say I'd be surprised.

Next year HTC brings out the HTC Bravo, it's an Android Phone (V. 2.0) with the snapdragon 1GHz and total similar to the HD2 instead of the 3,7" AMOLED (more than 16 mio colors) display .

I think it's the same as the hd2 just the android version of it :)
