Andrew u.k.: Agreed. Maybe you really shouldn't blame ebay.

So far my card recovery was unsuccessful.

At least I won't need to read a lot to learn how to burn a new ROM as long as I won't use this "Card killer" as a serious gadget after all. :mad:
[HD2 General] fallenangel408:
most the time a hard reset fixes it...better then loosing valuable sd info over settting up phone again(just happened to me after loading lots of apps on sd didnt read any sd hard reset and its all normal)

yep, my stock 16gb sandisk class 2 corrupted in a week.
[HD2 General] atjong1:
My stock 8 GB Sandisk card was corrupted too (1.72 rom). A stock 2 GB Sandisk from an older HD2 works fine though so I'm using that one. Could it be the HD2 implementation for HC support (larger than 2 GB) is buggy?
[HD2 General] hagba:
It took 3 months to kill my 8Gb class 2 Sandisk,but there were much earlier indications that it wouldnt last long,Now I am worried for my 4 GB as well.
[HD2 General] mihals1:
I am another one, who got the 8GB SanDisc card damaged. I've been using this card for over a 6 months.

Last night I tried to install FaceBook application from the Marketplace and after recommended soft-reset my card is no longer able to read. I can not read the card in the HD2, not even in PC. another 2GB card works fine in the HD2.

I'm not really sure, if HardReset helps...

the worst thing is I had all installations, pictures, videos and mainly passwords saved on that card, so I need to bring it back to a life :(
[HD2 General] fernyherrera:
Always back up data before adding a build to your SD card..everyone knows that
[HD2 General] mihals1:
yes, now I know that I need to do a backup every now and then... my bad.

Tried to remove battery and SD card for more than 10 minutes hoping the card will start read again (this happened to me once with different mobile and card and it worked), but no luck. so now I need to buy a new card and install all applications again. this is a nightmare! :(
[HD2 General] eflobo:
Sorry to disagree with you on the subject.

You cannot blame someone who lost his SD card content as long as, for HD2 specifically,

you must backup in a DAILY basis

.

This a known BUG, but HTC does not want to hear about it. You will lose your card sooner or later, sorry to say that. When it happens, I hope you have your fresh backup so your data (e.g. the pictures you took the day before) won't be lost. But I doubt it. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] mihals1:
I found a SW which saved some of my files from the card - me happy :D

but many files are corrupted and unreadable, which I don't care much about - those are unneccessary. will try to get more after I come back from work...

My stock 8GB sandisk Micro SD stopped working too.. after about 1mths. As it is an accessory covered under half year warranty in my country, I went back to the service centre to change.

Strange that they replaced it with a Transcend brand 8GB.
[HD2 General] tsfatt:
Hello, I facing the same problem ... within 1 mth I using my new HD2, its spoiled 2 8Gb SD card.

Testing some mobile scandisk programs

here's a link to my post about some of the mobile scandisk softwares I have found. As I am able to test them (only able to test 1 right now), I will update here. I would rather spend 15-20 bucks on a program that will fix my card on a daily or weekly basis, than lose my whole sd card (which I do back up regularly).

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7705265&postcount=22085

just to add. I scanned 3 micro sd's that had been in our hd2's this morning. 2 out of the 3 (including the little 2gb I use to flash), had errors on them. I have gotten in the habit of scanning and fixing them about 1x week.

I am going to test the software called flash format 2.85 that is supposed to be able to scan sd cards from the phone. I am hoping that it has a scheduler to be able to run this once a day.

http://www.cnetx.com/format/

I'll be the guinea pig and report back.

edit: tried the above software (free trial). I was able to install, but it is supposed to install to Settings/ System and I could not find the program or a program folder on my phone. Emailed developer about it.

Also tried:

http://www.wizcode.com/products/view/scandisk_mobile

It is supposed to have a free trial as well. Upon installation and attempting to run, it tells me my free trial is expired. Contacted developer as well.

Lastly tried:

http://www.softwinter.com/storagetools.html

I was able to install and scan my card. It was a pretty fast scan, did not find any errors (but just repaired card this morning). I'm gonna do a daily scan and see if it finds anything before the trial is up. This one doesn't have as many options as the wizcode scandisk, but it is very straight forward and seems scans the whole 16gb card in about a minute. Has a scandisk and defrag and format.
[HD2 General] mihals1:
I used "pc inspector file recovery" which saved a lot of files from the card which was unable to read in the HD2 and PC. I saved the most important things such as pics, vids and POIs from the navi. the rest is just rubbish I can lose or have backed in my PC :o
[HD2 General] tsfatt:
how do u guy do that "recovery", b'cos the sdcard which spoiled by HD2, when I insert into PC ..it can't detect at all ...

but insert into camera or others handphone .. it will prompt "new sd card, format?" after format .. still can't use .... PC still can not detect the sdcard ...
[HD2 General] tsfatt:
today, my 4GB scandisk card spoiled ... WTF ... now change to 4GB kingston .. is it phone or scandisk brand ???? why??? i lost all my file on it ..and memorable pictures ....
[HD2 General] openmindedguy:
sd card not reading

I had 2 cards which failed on me. 8gb and 16gb. Used Panasonic lumix and formatted both. Then re-formatted in Canon s3. Both work now. I lost the 8Gb while soft re-setting my phone. If I need to do anything like that again I'll take out the card.
[HD2 General] atjong1:
Turning off the phone is the same as soft-resetting it. The only way I can imagine the card getting corrupted is when you take it out (or hard-reset the phone or take out the battery) while data is being written to it.
[HD2 General] speechless2010:
My both 8GB Sandisk MicroSDHC card failure too! 1st work only work for one and a half day and the 2nd card only work for 1 day!! But, the 2Gb Sandisk Stock Card that come with my HTC HD2 Leo working fine so far! Also no idea why it is happened!!! Now trying to get the 16GB MicroSDHC from Ebay, hopefully it work.
[HD2 General] fulltank:
I can confirm - my Transcend 16GB class 2 bricked in few weeks , I hardly used it ,though it was in my HD2 (just 5% used).
[HD2 General] shak7i:
i am using a toshiba 16gb class 2 micro sd for 5 months now. no problem yet.
[HD2 General] Paulloft:
And another

Add me to the growing list of people who have lost 8GB Sandisk cards in my HD2.

First one went after about 2 months use.

Put a spare 4GB card in from my old TYTNII and it was working fine but I needed more space.

So purchsed a new 8GB card which I put in the phone yesterday. This evening, after a soft reset I got the dreaded message of doom asking me to format the card.

It too is now dead.

I need 8GB to run Memory Map on my phone but don't know what to do.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
I got a A-Data 16GB class 6 card in my phone now and that thing is totally rocking. will prolly upgrade to 32GB when A-data puts one out
[HD2 General] DizzyDee:
How did you do that? My card broke down on a trip to Barcelona (stock san disk 8gb). about 120 pictures lost... i'm going to sue both san disk and HTC!!!
[HD2 General] rubledub:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rodbac:
I have a Sprint Touch Pro2 running stock 6.5 ROM and a 2005 Acura TL. When I got the phone a few weeks ago, I was able to pair the two without problems and it persisted reliably. I was able to shut BT off and turn it back on and the pairing would take place immediately.

Four or five days ago, though, the pairing would drop periodically, forcing me to re-pair, and now, the pairing will disappear almost immediately if I'm able to get them to pair at all. Most of the time I can't get the phone to 'see' the car.

FWIW, I use my own 4-number PIN, and when the phone sees the car, I'm able to enter that PIN and pair them.

I of course was installing a lot of stuff on the phone, although nothing that one would expect might affect the BT, so I flashed back to the stock 6.5 ROM last night to see if it helped (it didn't- same prob today).

Before I take this thing back to Sprint and smash it on their counter, anyone have any ideas about settings I might not be aware of that could affect this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

PS: I'm going to be testing my old phone (Treo 800w) on the car later to see if it still pairs to eliminate the car as the problem.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
hey guys,

any of you found an app to replace the swipe unlock for the unlock pattern, rather than having both?

not urgent as this is the best phone I've ever had, but would be a nice touch.

Sent from my X10i using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] yetep:
not possible buddy sorry
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] im_iceman:
You're right... but it's such a shame don't you think... really no need for the swipe, if you have the pattern....
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
I thought that was the case...

May look into how hard it will be to create an app to do it
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Vin87:
The swipe unlock can be replaced with iphone/hero/donut/eclair style unlocking using the lockbot app. So I think an app should be able to solve this (However I'm not capable of making suck apps).
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] sungrad:
there is a free app called "No Lock" which simply disables the lock screen apparently. If you have the pattern lock underneath this then i guess you would just get that.

i haven't tried this, but just came across it by accident and it reminded me of this thread :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Thanks for that, but no luck :(

It disables both the lock and the unlock screens (if that makes sense)

It is quite handy if you are at home and have the phone on a table and having a text conversation where you keep turning the screen on and off, but not quite what I wanted

I wonder if this is something that could be built on top of to give us what we want, I will email the Dev of this app and see what they say about it.

I will update when I know more :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Right then guys, I have had a response from BoD

I sent them this:

Good afternoon,

I have downloaded the no lock app for android. It is great app, however, there are quite a few users of android who would like to see an app that would remove the lock screen but keep the pattern unlock screen or pin screen etc. Im hoping you are open to suggestions, and as you have created the app to remove the lock screens completely (which is pretty much halfway there), I was wondering if you were thinking of creating an app capable of this?

If you are and would like beta testers, I'm sure i could get a few volenteers together to do so.

Thanks,

To which they responded (very quickly too):

Hi!

Unfortunately there is no way (that I know of) to do that currently.

I hope you'll enjoy the app anyway.

Have a nice day,

So.... It looks like they are not aware of how this can be done, IF it can be done, which is a shame.

Thanks sungrad for pointing the app out though :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] sungrad:
no probs :) sorry it wasn't much use
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] hoss_n2:
it exists in the security settings in the phone (pattern lock ) just enable it
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
I have the pattern unlock enabled.

The problem is that to unlock my phone now I have the swipe (with the triangle and the curve) and the pattern unlock. I want the pattern unlock to replace the swipe unlock, rather than be requested as well as the swipe unlock.

It's only a minor issue I have, but it does get annoying when you are using it a lot (text conversation etc)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] hoss_n2:
it is really annoying but i have an idea the application mananger if we could know its name we could deactivate it like what they do with htc devices they deactivated htc sense
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] maxpower1985:
nobody has a solution for that?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] WickedStyx:
Not exactly what you're after but there are widgets that toggle the unlock pattern off/on. You could toggle the unlock pattern off when texting so you only have to do the swipe. SwitchPro Widget has this feature but I haven't tested it with X10.

EDIT: Found this. It may be what you're after http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.brandongoodman.smartlock
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Riftler:
Bump? I just wonder if anyone found a solution to this? I would really want what the OP states
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kiki_tt:
just wanted to add... be careful with the "pattern lock" ... it literally disables your phone after 5 wrong pattern tries. I nearly did a system wipe just to unlock it.. Luckily for me it accepted my email account with "null" for password to re-enable it :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] mloc33:
I had that no lock app and it looked nice and handy but it messed with the pattern and slide default unlock when I went to uninstall, all I wanted was the pattern but no matter what way I set it,the swipe unlock would always be there, after loads of reboots and setting/unsetting a lock pattern it still did`nt work, this is after I uninstalled, after I dont know how many reboots even when I had the pattern enabled the swipe would come up first then the pattern, sometime only the swipe, it worked itself out, so be cautious of it....
[Desire General] jannen:
Not sure if its a bit stupid question, but does Amoled screens need screen alignment as WinMo phones?

I had to align the screen on my Compact IV couple times, and now on Desire Im not always sure the touch is exactly recorded where it should be.
[Desire General] Psy-Blade:
Hey. I'm not sure if they need calibration but I always miss things on my screen. it might just be that I'm used to a less sensitive screen and I'm making initial contact before I intend to click if that makes sense.
[Desire General] RTContent:
You can calibrate your keyboard if you go to settings/language & keyboard/touch input/text input/calibration tool. Im not sure if this calibrates your whole screen or just the keyboard app on it. Hope this helps.
[Desire General] abc27:
There is no way to calibrate a capacitive touch screen. They don't need to be calibrated due to their design. The keyboar "calibration" is just so the keyboard can get used to the way you type for auto correction.
[Desire General] slyn4ice:
Hey guys,

I am new to android and HTC Desire so bear with me. I just got a Desire from Softbank (i am in japan) and there is no calibration options at all. Settings->Language and keyboard has two options: 1. Select locale (i can choose between Japanese and English); 2. iWnn IME (this i guess is the software keyboard for Japanese models).

I also feel like my touches are not registered where they should be (it might be because of my large, fleshy thumbs who knows) so i wanted to see if I can do something about it.

Is there a way to install other keyboards and calibrate them? are there any good free keyboards or is there a place i can install other HTC default keyboards from?

Thanks
[Desire General] 3722:
slyn4ice,

You should have "touch input" in "language and keyboard", then from the former go to "text input" and then finally "calibration tool".

For other keyboards you can try the popular "swype"

So could you please help me solve the problem or at least make my phone back to europe version thank you very much.

Ps. I try using O2 and 3 sim I am in UK.
[Legend Android Development] NielDK:
I would think its radio related, or new rom is locked to some provider. Try installing first (1.31.405) using goldcard method, it should be possible, see if that fix the problem.

HD2

It runs on an HTC HD2, but doesn't work properly.

It won't go into fullscreen mode and many (dutch) channels don't work. (possibly more foreign ones too)(and PS: 3 adult gay channels??? WTF! :mad:)

Also when Wifi is activated and receiving more than a (1) MB/s on data, streaming still struggles. Buffering is fast, than the TV channel plays OK for about 10 sec. Than it starts to crack and stutter.

(Maybe it needs a bigger cache?)

So, a no go in purchasing this one for me, thanks.

But keep up the good development.

So far this looks better than MobiTV (which is only good for when you live in America)
