[myTouch 3G Slide General] raduque:
All I'm saying is give us the ability to uninstall what we don't want. Computer manufacturers make money by having 3rd party software companies pay to have software come preinstalled, but we can remove that if we don't want it. We don't have to potentially open security holes, void the warranty or possibly render it useless to do, either.

We shouldn't have to on phones, either.

can u disable sense by going into aplications and clearing defaults and can u post a pic of what it looks like without sense?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Sheldonjace:
I get where you are coming from. Although, if you choose to go down the path of rooting your phone and something starts to malfunction there usually is an easy way to fixing it without exchanging it. Plus you can always un-root a device and your warranty is restored.

This phone is designed to be user friendly out of the box to appeal to the masses. Its a way of putting Android devices in more consumers hands that don't keep up to date with all the Android Market items.

I've been using the device for the same amount of time as donepate and can testify to its performance. I like that I don't have Apps2sd as I've only installed my regularly used apps and games that I love...the phone seems cleaner than my G1 with 200+ apps.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] raduque:
I understand that they pre-load all this software to appeal to the masses, but would it really be so difficult to let us uninstall the apps from the Application Manager? The people that these apps are designed for, probably don't even know what AM is.

I only install about 15 apps (and 2 or 3 widgets), so 68mb is more than enough apps space for me, but it's just the principle of the thing.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] donepate:
Just wanted to share a happy thought. I happen to have a copy of the MP4 file of Transformers 1 and 2 that come included with the T-Mobile HD2. The HD2 can just barely play the files as you can see frame skips from time to time and looks a bit rough on occasion. They weigh in at about a gig and a half each. So I decide to drop them on my mem card and lo and behold, no frame skips, clean picture, and it never even hesitated once.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] qwertyking:
I totally agree with you, I dont understand why others dont view it the same way.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Jerzeeloon:
I went to tmo and played with the sales reps slide,it's a pretty snappy phone,I went there initially to buy the mytouch 1.2 and he totally convinced me to wait for the slide,which I'm getting next tuesday.I can tell you it will be unlockable on day one(already confirmed on androidspin)and the 600mhz processor can be overclocked to 800mhz with a patch.Also this phone is going to get 2.2 update soon after launch,possibly even day one,I'm exited as a tmo customer as we dont have many power options as verizon and there super droids,we have nexus one but it holds too many contract stipulations,so till the sidekick twist which will have a 1ghz cpu but wont be out till fall,the slide is the best android phone you can get on tmo right now.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] hansalvato:
dont forget galaxy s and motoroi but i heard it can be oc'd to 1GHz?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] hansalvato:
but i also used it at a tmo store just ask for theyre mytouch champion he\she will have on its amazing
[myTouch 3G Slide General] raduque:
That's definitely nice to know. I convert x264 HD movies to mp4 and watch them on my MT3G and they usually have a small pause right about the middle of movie, consistently.

I'm really surprised those movies from the HD2 weren't DRMed somehow.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] donepate:
hansalvato is right. Each T-Mo store should have one rep with a slide. Just walk in and ask if they are working. It's one of the reasons they got the phone to begin with. As for DRM, no sign of it on the videos and they are good quality. Go figure.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] shadowmike:
So far this is he best android device that t-mobile has. I don't count the nexus one as its also avalible for AT&T and must be purchased through google.

The slide has not slowed down or froze. Camera is excellent.

Coming from a mytouch, g1, and a cliq. this is just great. I do wish it was a higher resolution but you cant win them all with tmo.

yeah, the main difference between the free and paid versions is file transfer. you can set up a dropbox account and put the clients on both computers and share individual files up to 2gb in the free version (expandable to 10gb with referrals). let me know if you want a dropbox account so I can use my referrals and get more space. head over to dropbox.com and check out the video.

[General Questions and Answers] networkguy:
I have waited and waited to change my handset and been looking at the new Android devices with great interest.

BUT

Most of the corporate world has not moved to Google Apps

Indeed my corporate world has not moved to Google Apps and never will

So I live by Exchange. Calendar (which includes room and meeting bookings), Mail (of course) Tasks, Contacts, Corporate Address book and so on and so on.

So everything I have read so far suggests that Mail (proper push Activesync email) works fine but once you go beyond this, you are going to get frustrated very quickly.

I find this odd because even the iPhone has this one sorted but is Android simply not for the corporate world?

I really WANT a sexy Android phone but I NEED Exchange and as I don't want an iPhone that only seems to leave me where I am with boring yet reliable Windows Mobile.

Any thoughts
[HD2 General] Pilch2k:
Hi guys using a custom rom - kumars leo 2.2 wwe 1/29/10. Seemed to be going fine, but ive noticed (im sure it was working before) that the sound doesn't work. No ringtones, message alerts or alarm sounds, sat nav. Nothing plays in the media player or warning sounds. If i plug the headphones in it works perfectly - everything. The speaker phone works too, but i think that comes out of a different speaker to the main one.

I just flashed to 2.06.50.23_3 Radio to see if that would help but no go. Anyway to test why its not working?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] PeterGuru:
I had a virtually identical problem at one point in the past. In my case the solution involved one very important thing. Perhaps it will work for you.

Sometimes, if you use "clean-up" software, the program may delete a particular folder that's vital to sounds being enabled. You wouldn't think so, but this folder MUST exist. It's called the Volatile folder. It can be empty, but it must exist (don't ask me why).

It should be located in the Device/Application Data folder. If it's not there, create it. As I said earlier, it can be empty. It doesn't matter. Just make sure you have a folder called Volatile inside that Application Data folder.

Yes, there's another Application Data folder on the Storage Card. Not there! You must put the Volatile folder in Device memory.

Good luck!

Peter

P.S. I'm using a stock HTC ROM, so I don't know if this solution will work for you.

P.P.S. Don't forget to soft reset after creating the Volatile folder.
[HD2 General] Pilch2k:
Hi PeterHTC, thanks for your reply. I do have that folder in aplication data. I removed hspl and put the original o2 rom back on, still same problem - all fine with headphones.

So i gave up and took it back to the shop. They are sending it off, should take about 10 working days, so ill report back.

Cheers.
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
I know my speaker went out about 13 days after purchase. I thought the same thing, that it was something that got wiped playing with a rom. But with one exception I gave the phone a good tap while it was playing a sound clip and I could get the speaker to function for short times. Then it just finally gave up the ghost. I figured bad wiring. I never dropped it or did anything to come close to harming it.

I'm got a replacement sent out(works great so far) and I still have to send back the other one. Starting to wonder if the first few batches were hastily made and now the costumer is paying for it with phones that keep failing in odd ways. It's to be expected till they have all the bugs out. You can do all the testing you want but till something hits the public you'll never find them all.
[HD2 General] PeterGuru:
Ten days without my phone? I don't know what I'd do.

Good luck!

[HTC Vox] lis6502:
Hai. I'd like to know is there any replacement of original keyboard driver. Why do i like to change it? I've had lots of phones (non-wm too) and they responded to key immediately, but writing on Wizard, Vox, i-mate Jaq3 was a horrible experience. I feel when keys 'tap', so i've never need to take a look on keyboard while typing (like on computer), but i've noticed such long delays between keypress and a letter on screen. More, some keypresses are ignored in my opinion, because tapping three times '4' sometimes gives me 'h' in exchange of expected 'i'. Even overclocking does not solved my problem.

Only on Samsung i600 keys were buffered correctly, i mean that when writing a long e-mail response time was significantly longer than on message's top(when she was short), but after a short while correct letters appeared.

Here on vox keypresses are just ignored. Problem persist when usign qwerty kbd, so that's why i thought about keyboard driver.

Anyone noticed such issue?

BTW, i have orange branded e650, and i don't want to change rom because of warranty.

Please, help.
[HTC Vox] lis6502:
Mkay, by modifying registry's values i've understood that problem is not in keyboard driver, but in t9 dlls.

When i delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9 (whole), keyboard seem to act normally. Of course dialpad acts only as numeric keypad, also 'fn' and 'cap' keys does not modify keyboard's behavior (even leds are not lightning up).

I srsly need to work this out. Little help would be really appreciated :)
[HTC Vox] lis6502:
I feel like writing posts to myself :P

Anyways, i've managed to get rid of XT9 IME.

Now i need to figure this out...

Looking for assitance installing HTC hero drivers and Devtool ( adb shell ) on a Linux OS based laptop

I have Jolicloud ( Ubuntu base OS for netbooks ) (sudo commands)

if someone could provide a guide or assitance..
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
The drivers are there already

as for dev tools that pretty easy

download the sdk, extract it to a folder in ~/bin, run

cd ~/bin
chown +x *

then edit ~/.bashrc and add the line PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"

should do it for ya, now you just run adb by putting adb in the terminal
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
thanks but i am having problems moving it to the bin folder ..gives permission denied
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
whast the line comand to extract file to bin folder?

never mind i got it

sudo mv android-sdk-linux_86
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
Sorry I was cleaning up. Make sure you are extracting it to the bin folder in your home, NOT THE ROOT ONE. If the folder doesn't exist create it

I realized that the first thing I told you to do was wrong, we want the stuff in the tools folder NOT everthing in the sdk, cd into the folder the android sdk is in and run this: (skip the chmod +x step above, I moved it to down here

command:

tar -xzf android-sdk_r05-linux_86.tgz
chmod +x android-sdk-linux_86/tools/*
cd -r android-sdk-linux_86/tools/* ~/bin
rm -r android-sdk-linux_86 'this will remove anything you don't need Optional

If you get an error saying that ~/bin dosn't exist, run

mkdir ~/bin

then edit the .bashrc like described in my first post

EDIT:If should not have needed sudo if you moved it to /home/rgildoss/bin only if you moved it to /bin should it have caused problems. You don't want it in /bin
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
that cd -r gives me an error

bash: cd -r: invalid option

cd: usage: cd [-L|-P]..[dir]
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
Oops! typo! try cp no cd lol
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
LOL

okay that worked

one last thing

chown +x * also gives error

chown: invalid user: `+x'

also tried

chown +x*

chown: missing operand after `+x*'
[Hero CDMA General] comintern:
It shouldn't have to be in bin unless you're going to need access to the executable from anywhere in the directory tree. I run mine out of ~/android/ and it's fine. As far as permissions go, chown changes the owner of the file, chmod changes the permissions. If you're the only user on the machine, change the permissions with the octal: chmod 777 path/to/files/*
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
damn I really off my game tonight, should be chmod not chown :(
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
okay everything is good except for the last step:

then edit ~/.bashrc and add the line PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"

how do i edit this ? and were is the file at?

im sorry about all the question, its been over 4 years sisnce i used linux ( ubuntu ) and i wasnt very good at then either...lol

HELP!

lol

EDIT: my files are in root@mini:/home/rico/bin#
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
One thing, why are you loged in as root?

and nano ~/.bashrc should do it

or gedit ~.bashrc if you like gui better
[Hero CDMA General] comintern:
A user specific .bashrc doesn't exist by default in most Ubuntu based distros. Create it with...

touch ~/.bashrc

...and add the path statement. There should also be a systemwide bashrd located at /etc/bash.bashrc

[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
If you want to send to /bin or /usr/bin, you'll need superuser access:

Then type your password.

[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
I forgot that, been so long sence the last time I booted up anything ubuntu based or even

did it work? You will need to reopen a terminal in order for it to use the new file, but then you should be able to use adb like any other linux command

EDIT: you answered my question before I posted it, nice

Hmm, I don't know what to do about that part, when ever I get an error like I can't get it to go away
[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
1. Try adb kill-server first, then rerun the command.

2. If that doesn't work, run as superuser...see if that fixes it.

Reboot your phone into recovery real fast and see if you can use adb shell, then reboot your phone back into the rom and try it again. When this tends to happen to me it still works from recovery mode

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then

PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
sudo su is reduntant, just use su or sudo -i

and the $PATH var we set is only for your user, so if you want to run adb loged in as root you need to cd /home/rico/bin and run adb with ./adb

And yes the bottom of the file is fine

run adb as root with sudo adb, it will run it as superuser without messing with your $PATH

USB debuging is enabled on the phone correct?
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:
i think that path be wrong no?

PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"

should it not be PATH+"$HOME/rico/bin:$PATH" ??
[Hero CDMA General] smw6180:
Nope. it would either be $HOME/bin:$PATH or "/home/rico/bin:$PATH"

The $HOME variable tells the system to use YOUR defined home directory.

$HOME/rico/bin would really be:

/home/rico/rico/bin
[Hero CDMA General] Vrekk:
That one is the correct one

that one is /home/rico/rico/bin the $HOME var is your /home/rico

try loging in as yourself and doing sudo adb devices
[Hero CDMA General] rgildoss:

First off am I the only one that wishes the original opengl would stick? Performance was alot better for that one (especially for the nexus wallpaper). Is getting the performance of the original live wallpaper we had and the sticking of the new patch possible? Right now that is the only problem stopping my phone from being the sex.

EDIT: Problem seems to happen when another widget is updated. Its not perfectly smooth, but not bad, but when a widget updates it really slows down the wallpaper to a noticeable halt. I doubt im the first to notice this, but for anyone else that really wants nexus wallpaper, having less widgets on your main page seems to help.

I moved the news+weather widget you see below to another page and it seems to jitter less.

that they work, and its not like a bounty hunting sprint dealer is going to

hunt you down and put them in your phone.........so the choice is yours

but no sense in being anything other than greatful for what we have atm

unless you have something to help us improve the issue as it stands.

Maybe you could try to solve the issue for us rather than wasting your time

posting about waiting for the devs who do for free to come up with the

next great fix.Good Luck with your waiting.....Ill be busy asking questions

and doing research to find answers and fixes to my issues. And Yes if i wasnt

happy with them so far thats what id be doing but i got my victory about

1 week ago when i stumbled across someone in another forum with the

patch for them to stick on another phone. My goal was getting them to

stick....and im very happy with what i have now. With that ability we

can now have FULL FUNCTION roms, which we couldnt do before.
