I'm not getting in an analogy war with someone, especially someone on the forum that I respect, so I'll drop it. We obviously just see this from different perspectives, and I believe we should agree to disagree :)

Anyway, lorin.brute himself said it best...

See - we're both right :) lol
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Not quite, The OP didn't have any problem after applying the tweak, and nor did the following two people, so why would they 'know' it was dangerous? After three posts 100% of people had found no problem, so why would anyone assume it was going to go bad?
[HD2 General] smaberg:
if phone gone bad! why not post what happend and so on, and see if we can get it to work agian?

and yes, this thread is kind of fun to read ;)
[HD2 General] rahulelectra:
Dude No offence..... But cant stop smiling :) .. i wish i cud see u after that lol... neyways i think u might have edited wrong registry or some thing bad to the registry....

And one suggestion -- backup all before doing anything to the phone ..Even MS recommends to backup before installing \updating official patches.

If we gonna encourage responsibility than nobody will post there tricks..

But in a way u r correct we can have a format like

Name of the Fix = purpose of the fix here like 'increase memory'

OS\Device Version = HD2 E Ver, ROM Radio bla blah

Tools Needed = Say Registry Editor

Risk = Whats teh risk involved

Tested on Devices = Count of devices on which it was succesful.

what say
[HD2 General] alejo1575:
And .... the last time you make a change in registry without making previously a backup of all your stuff
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
why all new threads opened in this forum end like this shame you
[HD2 General] hyellow:
well, if all is said and done, why don't we get back to the topic and find out what this memory is good for. it's only 20mb, but maybe we can utilize it in a better way, e.g: as a cache disk for opera? or anything else? :D
[HD2 General] g.lewarne:
thats a good idea!

anybody know how to do this? i can test it on mine for you all (i make backups!)

also, you have to wonder, where does this memory come from? perhaps 1gb ROM is a possibility after all????
[HD2 General] X1-owner:
It's just 20MB, it's more likely a hidden part of the official 512MB. Like if they release a new bigger ROM, they could enable this without people getting upset about having less storage space.
[HD2 General] fards:
just because a partition is hidden doesn't mean it isn't being used..

really don't know what pinet is, yet...

time for some more investigation

if suggest the guy who had issues got some thing wrong.
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
No, i can assure you i changed the right registry. I'm not a noob in these things.

After a soft reset storage card became storage card 2, all my custom icons were gone, most of the icons reverted to the original icons, a part of them had no icon (just the default app style one), no app could be opened from the icons (since the patch is no longer valid), the icons became blurry (there was a definite lowering of the icon quality). Oh, and no partition appeared. I changed back the registry and soft rested again. No change so i hard rested after i saw all this.
[HD2 General] Da9L:
Which is why he posted it. He tested it, it worked for him and then he wants others to try/test it to. It is a development forum and therefore these kind of things is to be expected. In a development forum things get tested and so on. :)
[HD2 General] fards:
well ive tried it, without any errors

and and have a new partition..

EXT_pinet appeared in resco explorer.

it appears to be used as a cache for HTC documents tab.

I wonder if again it's something new for the 2xx roms. I don't remember seeing it in the 1xx ones.

It is a user writable partition.

MM interesting

further checking data written to it appears to survive a soft reset so its more likely to be storage rather than a ram based disk, unless it's being cached to storage somewhere, which makes even less sense..
[HD2 General] fards:
sorry I really am struggling to see how that one reg change can bring about that.

are you sure you hadnt done something else and hadn't soft reset but forgotten about it?
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
It was the first thing i did in the morning. I was drinking some hot tea and reading xda. I saw this post and tried it and bang :) I haven't changed anything lately. My phone was working great.
[HD2 General] X1-owner:
If it is used as a cache for documents tab it, then it might be a good idea to be extra careful if you're not using a ROM with a Manila version that includes that tab.
[HD2 General] leftkats:
:eek: man that was kinda spooky... did you have anything to do with the "Saw" movies???? lol
[HD2 General] leftkats:
by the way regarding the storage card 2 thing... it was very common in my polaris... all i had to do is to insert the sd card and it was all ok... obviously since the sd card was renamed to storage card 2, any links would be automatically dead, hence the problem with the icons as well... too bad you had to hard reset, it might have just been a simple solution..
[HD2 General] ruscik:
Well no problems with enablng that memory and renaming it to custom.

Storage Card rename to storage card2 happens if you have any apps needing files of sd card. As all have moved it auto creates folder (not memory card) called storage card, because of that actuall sd card is moved to storage card 2.

In my case it was attachments stored on sd card. I have disabled that, soft reset and my sd card was back where it was to be. Then re-enabled attachmets to sd card and it works.

Funny as right next to EXT_Pinet which is mount hidden is EXT_ACCD what is that as it is also mount hidden but changing that does nothing.
[HD2 General] azahoth:
I used to get this with the orbit 1, happens when the phone is a USB drive and somtimes the Storage card get renamed to storage card 2.

The simple way to fix is remove SD card from from phone, delete storage card2. Insert SD card back and everything gets put back to normal, i.e apps now have correct directory path.
[HD2 General] DrewVL:
Im not sure about him when he said " i can assure you i changed the right registry" for myself i do sometimes changed the incorrect registry :) whether im doing it too quickly or reading the wrong info or my fingers is uncontrollerable at times :)

i thought this is a developers page? no? so you take your own risk! dont blame on others. just be a man
[HD2 General] jan-willem3:
After some searching on google. This is some space for htc album and some other things.

I think enableing it will give you more space but if your memory gets full it can cause problems because some things of have not enough memory. So the conclusion it is only useful when you want to see that your phone has 20 mb extra mermory. Of course maybe is 20 mb to much so room cookers can decrease that size.
[HD2 General] Mazahaka999:
WP7 isn't Windows Vista LOL
[Nexus One General] moSess:
It's crazy. The phone is great, it's what I've wanted for years. I got it just today and besides having to get used to the on-screen keyboard I must say it is the best phone I have ever used.

The Rhodium, in retrospect, was a clunky machine, and one of the best windows had to offer. This late in the game though, just an antiquated OS. I am so happy to be done with a Windows.

Why the thread?

Do you, geeks that we are, find no one in your immediate circle who understands?

I got home and am soooo satisfied win my decision, no longer having to tinker and be OCD, I know, not very geeky. Just I think I have been spending a bit to much time modifying and not enjoying my phone. I also didn't want be in he hands of Steve and the fruit phone.

Any similar stories...
[Nexus One General] PISSANDVINEGAR:
Mine stopped vibrating after 5 seconds, apart from that great phone.
[Nexus One General] JJackson9995:
Quick tip: Setup haptic feedback on the keyboard if you haven't already. It truly makes a touchscreen keyboard 5x easier to use/learn.

I'm basing my opinion on haptic with the N1 vs. non-haptic w/ my iTouch. It's nice to have "something" that tells you that you just pressed something.

Also, learn to use the auto-correct. Especially holding down new words/names that it normally "tries" to auto-correct. (Such as "app(s), Haha, and various others that the phone tries to correct to really odd words) (Haha, will default to BAHAMAS!!!... WTF?)

Just thought I'd try to be useful ;)
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
I know exactly what you mean... I got a TyTN II and the first thing I did was flash a custom ROM so it would actually be useable... then, after about 6 months, I found out I could run Android on it... really well! After a couple months of looking at it, I finally took the plunge to see what Android was all about, not thinking I would be blown away, especially considering I was running it on a WM device.

What did I discover? Android ran better on my Kaiser than WM did! I was hooked, and a couple months later got myself a G1 to replace the Kaiser... The G1 still had some issues, IMO, in terms of speed and found myself still flashing customer ROMs, but it wasn't out of total neccesity at least.. and now, I have a Nexus One, which is hands down the best phone I have ever experienced! I don't even feel like it is needed to put a custom ROM on it, I have and will again, but the stock experience is more than fulfilling!
[Nexus One General] Goonish:
Mate, I get the exact same feeling.. No one really "gets" me when it comes to this phone.

It's just a phone they say, what does it do that your HTC Diamond doesn't? Seriously.. the only thing I can come up with, is it has a flash.. But we know it's so much more than that, don't we? :)

I've already been told by a few people; "oh don't buy googles first phone, it'll have lots of bugs, you should wait till the second release." Little do they know nor understand.

First moment I got my Diamond I flashed it because it had too much carrier crap on it. Who wants everything to be customized by someone else.. Seriously..

*Eagerly awaiting my new shiny phone*
[Nexus One General] JJackson9995:
I was quite surprised by no real bugs to be seen or heard of myself. I was wary of the purchase, but easily the best one I ever decided upon.

I'm still trying to see if the great developer folks figure out a re-lock... But every day I'm considering rooting... Ugh! :D
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
I can connect to my home PC (Edit: from anywhere with 3G) and mouse and keyboard around on it using the Remote RDP program for Android. I find this impresses people fairly well.
[Nexus One General] JJackson9995:
I'm fine with using Gmote for free to pull any music/video to my phone... Still haven't hopped onto the paid apps bandwagon yet. Still working my way through the free apps, to get a grasp on what I like, and don't like.

But, it would be nice to have even more control remotely. I'm just staying in minimal-mode for a bit.
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
I'm surrounded by iPhone and BB users, most of which are completely, utterly technologically illiterate--I'm talking about people who don't even understand processor speeds/RAM size, so they can't even appreciate how fast the Snapdragon is. People who aren't users of either want one. "Android" is like Greek to them.

I do know a few geeky people, but they're rare around here. :/
[Nexus One General] TurboTsi:
I did the exact same thing man. I had the first gen iPhone for about a month, hated it. Then got the AT&T tilt, and flashed a custom rom on it. I worked at T-Mobile, and my co-workers would say, I should just go work for at&t lol, then I finally got the G1 a week before launch and fell in love with android. Its the best OS I could have asked for and knew it would be a winner. Then up until 2 days ago, I finally received the nexus one and WOW, it is so much faster, i'm still shocked. I haven't rooted or installed a new rom because I don't think it needs it. It runs great stock. Awesome phone, that I think only us xda nerds know how to appreciate. It really a great device upgrade for those of us who had stuck with the G1 for so long.
[Nexus One General] moSess:
Nice feedback

I made a thread saying why I moved in the Rhodium forum and should have known better. I just wanted to share. They are letting me have it.

But it is so true, this device is a great medium. Customizable, elegant, powerful, what more could we ask for(lets further he Convo)?
[Nexus One General] addicus:
Glad you guys love it. I'm looking forward to getting one for my wifey while I get the HD2.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Well then she can hang with the best and you can hang with the rest :D
[Nexus One General] ralexand:
I tend to explain the phone as "a netbook with a phone feature that fits in you hand." The specs truly are that of a netbook.
[Nexus One General] moSess:
Exactly! It is a great device with great specs...:)
[Nexus One General] lnjryan:
No question... the N1 is the best phone I've had.

Love my G1 and still use it but my N1 is my dress to impress phone...
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Agreed.

Noone has a clue enough to appreciate it.

Unlike the iPhone it doesnt have a hype machine to make people desire it.

For selfish reasons I dont want too many people having them. Id prefer everyone knowing about and wanting one..but few actually having it.
[Nexus One General] karthikjr:
Haha! Amen to that! :)

I see everyone drooling over the Nexus One all 'round.

But when it comes to their next phone, most of the techno-illiterati

will plump for a BB or an iPhone.

And that, in my book, is as it should be :D

This phone is for true connoisseurs.
[Nexus One General] addicus:
You guys know that's how we all felt when we got our Wizards and Hermes right. It's a great feeling that comes when a phone is done right.

Why you hatin on me galaxys? I love the features of this phone but enjoy WM also. Can't I have more than one woman?
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
OK, that's cool :cool: More than one woman and device has also been an obsession of mine as well ;)
[Nexus One General] david1171:
UGH! I live in Alabama. People here think RAM is an animal. No one around me gets why I like my phone as much as I do. Though I do have to say, I made one of my friends with an iPhone have a jaw drop moment ;)
[Nexus One General] moSess:
All along the same lines...

@David: funny as helll:D

@Addicus and galaxy's: maybe windows OS was like your old silverscreen classic beauty, your Liz Taylor's and Marylin Monroe's. But this is more like tithe new beauty's... Scarlett Johanssen and Jessica Alba who have that something more. Not only the classic beauty but the sexiness as well, the lust factor!

Karthikjr, injryan, xManMythLegend: my thoughts as well.

Its just such an elegant design...

This is funtionaliy and customization at its true bestt

Hi,

I have 1.48.207.2 (71294) GER (O2) on my phone and wanted to upgrade to a newer official version. But my Serial Number doesn't allow me to upgrade.

Is it only officially possible for me to upgrade to another O2 Rom or how does this work with htc devices?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

Thank you for this info, but does Sim-locked mean that it is not possible to insert an other Simcard oder only that it is a provider branded firmware? Because I can insert and use a Simcard from another country/provider without any problems.

Thanks
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
OK, so it sounds like your phone is unlocked. It's still the same process either way, HSPL and then flash a ROM of your choice.

Hi everyone, I'm new to installing Android to the Vogue and I haven't the slightest idea where to start. I've tried multiple times but always seem to mess up with everything. Can anyone give me a step by step tutorial or even make the folders for me so that i can put it in my SD card, let me know and thank you guys for your help. Also if possible and anyone would want to help and make the folders for me I would like an eclair build.

[Touch CDMA General] Gere200:
I was planning on running it off NAND, any suggestions?
[Touch CDMA General] Nick N:
Your phone is already unlocked?

Seeing that you have never run Android before you may want to try a few builds on SD card first to see which one you like, and have the flexability to go back to Windows Mobile. A class 6 microSDHC card is pretty comparable to NAND speedwise in my opinion.
[Touch CDMA General] Gere200:
wow thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed, once I get everything going I will let you know, currently I'm running NFSFAN's Final 6.5 ROM, its great and all but I need me some Android. Thanks again for your help and I will keep you posted.

Quick a question just to verify. When I want to reflash to a newer build of andriod in the future, I'd just have to place the correct .nbh file in root, androidinstall.tar file in the andboot folder and hold volume up?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Well, I think it's fantastic you got a phone you enjoy using! Everyone should enjoy using their device. However, this begs the question: Why are you posting in the Rhodium section about how much you hate the phone, when this section is mostly (if not completely) filled with people who like their Rhodiums and like Windows Mobile? It's great you got a device you enjoy, but why are you telling the people who like their Rhodiums?

Just because you didn't have a good experience with the device, and didn't like it, doesn't mean the rest of us feel the same way. Most of the people who bought the Rhodium bought it because they like Windows Mobile, they like the form factor, they like something else about the device, or they don't really care at all. For a poor, suffering Rhodium user who must bear the pains of owning such an awful device, I can say that I'm actually quite happy with it:)

The torture I must endure with this device

ROTFLMFAO!!!!

I had the Moto Cliq AND the Samsung Behold 2...both droid based phones, both sucked ass...I went running back to WinMo and am so happy I did. I can go a few days without charging my device...both droid phones I had to charge LITERALLY every 4-5 hours!! I can customize my device, tweak the hell out of it, and if I so choose, run a cooked rom made to my liking...not so with the Cliq or Behold 2 (not saying it won't be able to happen, but back in November, hell no). I too am quite happy, thrilled really, with the horrible device known as the Rhodium!! I guess what they say is true...ignorance is bliss.

BTW, the troll got its ass handed to him when he challenged the 3 billy goats gruff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sclui56:
My daughter has the Cliq after the G1, and I also have the 3G Hero before buying the Nexus. I went through 2 Nexus and they are identical despite what the tech told me - the speaker blows, I missed more calls with the N1, and the speakerphone is hopelessly poor. I would have loved it but every chance I get I go back to my Tilt 2, especially when I need to sync notes & tasks from outlook.

Having said that, I am somewhat concerned with the HD2 as the HW is quite similar, I can deal with pink center spot from the cam, but the speaker/ringtone level is important to me....
