you can transfer data and run BT File Transfer? I can use it as an audio but one other thing that BT allows is for devices to pass data to one another like a phone to a puter or a phone to phone or even a phone to a nav in the case of contacts and phones numbers. This doesn't work today with hero 1.5 or 1.6 but was suppose to be available in 2.1 but none of the leaked custom roms quite do this yet and it's primarily because the dev's don't use it so they haven't spun the cycles...and for me I have no real skills yet in hacking this stuff nor the bandwidth to sit down and figure it out. Hoping I will in the coming weeks but by then the official release probably be here as I won't get bandwidth until April-May with school in work.
[Hero CDMA General] rufflez2010:
I tested it out with a macbook and had no problems transferring a file on Damage Control v1.0. I used the stock BT transfer app built in, not BT File Transfer in the marketplace.
[Hero CDMA General] gravesy56:
hmmm I'll retry I thought I did it with DamageControl but could've missed it. I'm trying specifically to pass contacts from my phone to my car and BT Files Transfer has the send contacts function but it didn't like the app when I loaded it to Damage Control if memory serves me. I'll let you guys know the outcome.
[Hero CDMA General] gravesy56:
which; I just loaded the rom and didn't see anything I downloaded the expresso flavor of damage control should I use the normal version?
[Hero CDMA General] thatguythatdid:
blueteeth bluetooth bluetongue?

I just sent a contact from my phone to my computer and have been sending mp3's and apk's from my computer to my phone all day, but i didn't use any app just clicked send via bluetooth. I'm running windows 7 and darchlegendv4 if that helps at all.
[Hero CDMA General] gravesy56:
you using darchlegend v4.1 or v4...in any case I'll give it another go later on tonite and let you guys know my results.
[Hero CDMA General] troyboytn:
I have been able to transfer files on every 2.1 rom I have tried (without a third party app). Just click "share" in music, pics, and while in contacts click menu>send contact.
[Hero CDMA General] Wabem:
I was just curious if you got this figured out gravesy, i am having the same problem. I'm pretty new to bluetooth so i'm lost 8p
[Hero CDMA General] gravesy56:
Thanks bro, yeah it only works one contact at a time and will only carry over a complete vcf not just the name and phone number so I'll see what's the full Sprint build is available if I can do it then with just the name and numbers otherwise I'll use my laptop sync my local outlook change the names and numbers by removing the other stuff in the vcf and see if it works then.

(Current version: alpha 1) DISCONTINUED!

MobileBooster is an experimental CPU-booster tool (experimental as if it may have no effect at all in worst case).

In theory this application can improve the speed and responsiveness of your device in high-load scenarios. It has no settings and is completely invisible.

Features:

- simple and clean installation and uninstalation

- boosts your multitasking capabilities by managing process priorities

- slightly boosts active application speed at the expense of background tasks

- supports all HTC devices

Requirements:

- 275kb of free space

- 148kb of RAM

- Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5

Installation:

- download and install the CAB to your device

- soft reset and you're all set!

Uninstalation:

- uninstall using Remove Programs, no reset is required

- be aware that you DO need to soft reset to eliminate all boosting effects (for benchmarks/comparing speed)

The usual disclaimer:

This application is provided as-is. I take no responsibility for any damages that may occur by misuse or bugs in this software.

Project goal:

This is experimental concept and it may have no effect at all save for consuming CPU cycles. If you download and test this, please post back your impressions and opinions. You may experience increased fluidity of your device during normal use and better responsiveness under heavier load. You may experience nothing at all. You may experience decreased speed. Whatever this does for you, uninstall will wipe the application clean so this should be a risk-free test.

Note that your device is less responsive immediatelly after soft reset - this is normal WM behavior. Give it a few minutes before testing.

.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] oltp:
let's give it a go on my TP2 with AthineOS 23549

first impression: Opera 10 seems to render the xda forum pages much quicker. Now lets's play BoingGLES
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Yeah... "SEEMS" is the keyword here, Opera indeed seems to be working faster for me, especially with running background tasks and Sense is a bit more responsive, but even though the theory behind this is valid and time proven on single-core PCs, it may all be just a placebo effect.

That's why I posted it for others to see and judge :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
It could just be a roll of the dice, but gscroll is actually working perfectly (on ereader) with this running. I probably shouldn't have said anything, cuz it'll decide to take a lunch-break soon.

Can't tell much else, but it doesn't seem to break anything.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] dhamma:
each restart of the HTC HD2 it gives error cant start this application,

so i unistalled
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Torakiki83:
On my TP works fine, actually seems the whole system actually speeded-up. I had an error once but never happened again. It takes 624k of RAM, so it's quite something but oh well... keep up doin this good job!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Well it's not exactly optimized for memory or CPU usage, neither does it properly handle runtime errors... this is just experimental proof of concept :)

I have been testing it extensively and from my experience:

1) it definitely does not slow things down.. if it seems so, it's probably because your device is still booting

2) it has little to no effect when you use only 1 application

3) it seems to help a little with concurrency of 2 or more processes

that can be seen during heavy background network traffic or heavy concurrent tasks

- Opera loading pages and rendering at the same time

- you can notice increased responsiveness while playing music in background and doing stuff

- rotating screen in various scenarios also seems a bit faster

- sound cracking under heavy load should be reduced

- basically the more things you run at once, the better improvement you should see; well until you hit the ceiling of your CPU

... I'm not talking huge improvements here but every little bit helps :D

4) keep on mind that part of the effect is persistent until you soft reset, even if you uninstall or kill the booster you need to soft reset if you want to bench/compare
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wonderous:
Thanks nik3r for the app I tried it installed and uninstalled easy with no errors.

Unfortunately, it greatly slowed down my TP performance. Opera rendering was sluggish, opened apps were windows media player, contacts, WLM, tasks, calendar, activesync. As for opening and using other programs , i did not notice a dip or increase in speed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] LoGaY:
i'll try it o my htc touch pro 2 and my HTC mogul...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Could you please post the name of your ROM and pagepool size if you know it? I think that pagepool may have huge impact on the ability to multitask.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
I'm not 100% sure it has to do with mobileboost, but I've been having some issues with writing to the sd card. (This is actually kind of funny, lol). Last night, I created a shortcut to mobileboost.exe and put it on my sd card, where I have a second copy of my start menu that I access with the XTask file manager (I put stuff I'm testing out there instead of the real start menu). This morning, I scanned my sd card with Scandisk, and it found an error in the folder where I put the shortcut. Ok, no big deal. Today, I was running some SK Tools benchmarks with mobile boost, and I copied them to my sd card (and created a new folder) while MSB was running. After soft resetting and running some tests w/o it running, I looked in the sd card and the folder with the benchmarks wasn't there. I scanned the disk, and the files were recovered as .chk files. I guess it could be happening because I'm using caches applied to the sd card as well as writeback. But, I've never seen this happen before.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory\FATFS]
"EnableWriteBack"=dword:00000001
"BitmapCacheSize"=dword:00000100
"FatCacheSize"=dword:00000400
"DataCacheSize"=dword:00000c00
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Definitely unrelated, MobileBooster installs to the device no matter what you chose and it autostarts (from \windows\startup folder).

Make sure you safely disconnect from PC when you're in flash drive mode and don't connect/disconnect the device in flash mode during any transfers :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
OK, here are some benchmarks with SK Tools. The first two compare benchmarking w/ and w/o mobileboost running, each after a soft reset. I ran three tests, took the average of each three and show the standard deviations.

W/O the boost:

With the boost running:

These two are really pretty similar. In my experience, there's a lot of variance in how well the RAM access and bitmap tests run; they aren't consistent at all, so seeing the faster ram access without the boost running probably means nothing.

Next, I ran a set of .mp3's over WMP and did the tests (3 for each, w and w/o the boost, with a soft reset in between the tests). This was to test multi-tasking performance. I ran the same two songs for each test (takes about 5 min per test).

W/o boost:

W/ the boost:

The integer test is a lot faster w/o the boost running, and the floating point is slightly faster (not a ton). Both take a hit compared to not running WMP, which is a major resource hog. The RAM and bitmap tests are both faster, and this just goes to show that they're pretty random tests and I wouldn't ever get too excited about results with these two tests (unless they're consistently awful, I suppose). The only benchmark (besides the first two tests, which basically measure processor speed or effectiveness) that I care about is the last one, which is the SK Tools boot-time (you have to close the app and re-start to get different measurements). It's pretty good in all cases, and doesn't change that much.

Long story short, I'm not seeing much benefit in these tests, but if it helps to get gscroll to work (not sure 100% yet), then I might use it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
Yeah, I dunno if it's related or not, but I was doing all the file transfers with total commander on the device. I didn't use the cab to install mobilespeedbooster, I dumped the contents with sk tools and then started it manually with a shortcut (that I made w/ TC). So, it wasn't running from startup.

Edit: now that I think about it, I've also got these keys applied to the sd card:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory\FATFS\Filters\CacheFilt]
"Dll"="CacheFilt.dll"
"Order"=dword:2
"FileCacheWriteBackPriority256"=dword:FE ;shadrac's settings
"FileCacheWriteBackTimeout"=dword:A

I have a feeling that mobileboost was messing with the writeback thread, and that's why I wasn't seeing files writing properly to my card.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Thanks for the tests, even though synthetic benchmarks on WM are inherently imprecise and this app is more about perceived speed than actual raw speed. Your SD problem at least gave me more ideas, I should really treat system services separately with higher priority and try to decrease the thread scheduling overhead, which may cause the differences in benchmarks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] LoGaY:
where can I find the setting app?

cause I cannot find it on System settings and start program....

or just install it without setting and anything else...?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
There's no settings, the core is fully automated - just install and soft reset and it's online.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jepenyot:
Improved performance on my phone

I'll like to start off by thanking you for this great app I usually just read other people who post and if it looks good I download it and I never post back but I really liked this app so I felt like it deserved some feedback. I've noticed my TP run smoother and faster esp when I'm listening to music :D. Also I don't know if its from your program but my phone would just go to a white screen for 5 sec when I try to go back to my home screen, but thats about the only issue I've seen so far. Keep up the good work ;)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Idea

Hmm.. I have an idea how to eliminate the placebo effect of the booster. I am considering to make 2 versions -A and B.

One of them would just sit there, doing nothing, the other would really boost... I wouldn't tell you which one is the real thing. That way if I get feedback on the idle version, I would know it's just a placebo :D

Question is who would be willing to participate in a double-test. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
Just do it; that's a really good idea.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Ok I found a bug, we were probably all right, the results varied greatly depending on the ROM pagepool and background services, actually half of the alpha1 booster was redistributing CPU and preventing chokes on high load and the second half was actually slowing the device down.

I will make a new fixed version shortly. It will have a mode picker before startup A and B mode. One of the modes will not do anything, the second mode will enable boosting. I will not tell which one is real (and please no disassembly cheating :D). This should eliminate placebo effect alltogether and keep the application in single package.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] VeNuMuS:
nice job bro this works great. im using manila 2.5 and almost no lag when scrolling. keep up the good work. cant wait for the next release.

Topaz/Pure

Energy rom 23547 Max manilla rom

Htc Pure

I install and does speed up the system a bit but as soon as a soft reset i get error message? Thats what happens on my end.:cool:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Haha nice one :)

It activates after first soft reset, if you get an error message on startup, it crashed before it done anything and it's no longer working. If that is the case, there's just no difference and any improvement you see is the psychological placebo effect :p :D

Actually I am starting to get the idea it's all bugged and dirty broken and it's not actually doing anything at all... but that's not possible, is it? xD

Anyways this may take a while and a lot of digging on MSDN to get the new version up and running... but at the very least I'm getting closer. System says the priorities are not actually changing no matter what I do, and if I try to read them manually I get a reading error status, so I'm really not sure if it actually affects the system... or not and we're all delusional :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jepenyot:
Oh well I'm guessing I fell under the placebo effect because when I soft reseted it crashed :(. And I'm willing to participate in this experiment of yours ;)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
oops

I am positive, the first version has no effect on the system at all according to my scrutinizing tests. It just doesn't do anything - system denies access for all my calls. I doubt it is possible to do what I wanted to do using managed code. I will keep digging and try to do this using native C++.

For all who thought it makes things faster (including me) - either my tests were all wrong or we are just imagining things :D

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] jcss:
Hi everybody,

I have searched the forum for a way to fix my old P3300, but I can't find.

I have this P3300 that was bought unlocked a long time ago.

One morning it was dead.

Now I can get to the bootloader screen (red, blue, green and white) with the following information:

IPL 3.13.0001

SPL 3.13.0000

I have USB link on the bottom and it is recognized by Windows XP.

When I try to run HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe it detects the phone says that will upgrade from <blank> to 3.13.405.1. It starts but fails between 2 and 3% with error (228) invalid file size.

Am I doing something wrong or not and it's time to get a new phone?

Thanks for any assistance.

As of recently, my browser stopped word wrapping engadget's homepage. It wraps the individual articles, but not on the main pages (class or mobile). My browser wraps any other website fine, so I'm thinking maybe it's an engadget issue. It actually does wrap while the page is partially still rendering, but once the page is fully loaded the word wrap is disabled again.

Anyone else experience this?

Okay, I´m now turning to the greatest Android forum on the internet in hope of help.

I am currently running BeHero v1.3.2, in case you need to know.

People / Menu / Show

The numbers is offcourse the number of contatc in each category.

How can I sync these? Right now its a mess, I dont know how many duplicates there is, I dont even know how many real contact I actually have.

I would like to move all those contacts into a single place and then somehow remove duplicates and them get them back into my phone.
