wm don't support java by itself it use what we call a midlet manager to run java

there are many different midlet managers other then what you got default with your x1

you can try others to see if they support it

but personally I would not hold my breath too much java on wm is not as good as on other platforms

This is for all those people that think auto-killer is the be all and end all of android.

Auto-Killer Does:

Kill Apps to free up RAM

Auto-Killer Does NOT:

Speed up your phone

Here is why!

The way RAM works is - it temporarily stores the files needed to run an application so that the CPU can access them quicker than from ROM/SD-Card.

RAM does NOT slow down when it has more information stored within it, therefore having 20 MB of free ram or 120 MB will make NO difference to the speed of your phone.

Ironically, having more free RAM may even slow down your app loading times because:

If you wish to launch an app and you have 120 MB of free ram with no apps loaded it will have to load the app from your ROM/SD into the RAM and then access it from there.

On the other hand if you have the app already loaded into the RAM, with only 20 MB of free ram, it will load quicker because it doesn't have to check the ROM/SD first!

Therefore, having less RAM free means that more apps will load quicker. In addition to that, Android already has a built in task killer which is designed to kills apps which haven't been used in a long time when you get to a very low ram figure.

LOL JK
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mkrogh65:
Hmm at about 26 meg left, my phone gets buggy, and slow moving.

'I dont believe appkiller makes my phone is faster, BUT It does´nt get slow...(26meg and lower)

So Autokiller will help my phone having more ram, and the phone is running fine :)

About the 120 meg free ram, I agree, just use a lower setting :)

BR.

Sure, task killers will not speed up your phone, but they will end apps that drain your battery (i.e. facebook, etc.).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Betty_Swallocks:
I hear what you say and understand what you mean but if that is the case can you explain to me why, after a day or so my phone slows to a crawl and clearing out the memory speeds it up again?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Thiesen:
Buggy apps wich leaks memory?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Kilsally:
I know technically you are right but my Hero get s laggy once the RAM gets low probably due to to many background tasks running at the same time so `freeing up memory`ie killing background tasks definitely removes the lag and speeds things up again
[Hero, G2 Touch General] idroid84:
I have to agree with kilsally here. What you have to think its that the more tasks that is open in the background in memory or not the phone will slow down due to the amount of processors running. Just like a PC the more running the slow that gets. One way to improve this is to increase system memory. In the phones case memory is not upgradable (but would be great if it could be!).

When you end tasks using task killer, it's like ending tasks on a computer and WILL speed it back up again (as there is no/very little processors running to slow it down).

Catch my drift?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dashmatticks:
its great that theres information out there stating how task killers and android shouldnt play together, but when it comes down to it, advanced task killer pro realllllllyyyyy helps keep my phone speedy. around 20 mb is where my phone gets clammy, around 65 mb is where it grows wings. at the end of the day, if i works for you do it. if not dont. THAT'S the beauty of open source <3
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wezternator:
Well thats not really true. Although having 20mb or 120mb RAM free itself will not speed up the phone, when using a task killer to clean up running apps you see the speed increase through the lesser toll on the CPU.

When you close and app in android it very rarely closes (the developer will have to force the phone to close the process thread - its very messy), it goes to 'sleep' this often a good thing as it makes opening the app up again much quicker. however most apps leave background processes running all eating away at a chunk of CPU. using a task killer should providing there are a fair amount of apps running to start with boost the phones performance generally

</rant> :-)

Wez.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] smiskkissen:
exactly! background apps doesn't only use your ram. many apps uses the cpu aswell and there for slowing down the phone
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dashmatticks:
which is exactly why when i have around 20mbs of ram left, killing apps makes my phone faster. people are thinking tooooooo technical about it. its not about memory being used, but whats in the memory (app) isnt slowing things down, but the fact that that app is causing cpu strain is!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] idroid84:
It depends what you information you want to have 'pushed' to your phone. If you require it to be 'pushed' the app must run in memory to allow this to happen. Task Killer can kill apps that you don't require 'push' information.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] SherlockHolmz:
I thought android paused cpu threads that wernt in use?

Also, doesnt matter if you have 20MB of free ram or 2TeraByte of free ram.

I've tried with and without task killers,far less problems without, and i felt it was faster without.

this kinda smells like RAM / registry cleaners for Windows, bull**** aimed at non-technical noobies.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] btdag:
Exactly my thoughts.

How does facebook drain your battery? I run the app from time to time, never changes bettery life. Also the people talking about CPU hogs - most apps go to sleep in the background and do not take up cpu to continue to run (or at least a minimal amount) - if you're running apps which have memory leaks etc then i think you should choose a different app to use instead of relying on a task killer to kill the task every time it goes wrong.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wezternator:
Programs that aren't in use do get 'paused' however nearly any program running needs to maintain some CPU activity to stop it from crashing, and some register services that run in the background aiding the program doing what ever it does, these often don't get stopped.

Reg cleaners on PC's are incredibly useful for older PC's, ones what have had a lot of stuff installed and un-installed, and ones with slower HDD's. Because programs don't always remove any reg entries they put in when installed the registry can become massive, with slower/older PC's that can reduce performance quite a lot because it takes longer to find the things that are required, obviously this won't be a problem on newish PC's (ones with sata or solid state, or even fairly new IDE etc) but ones with old 5400rpm IDE (old laptop drives) drives may struggle a little.

again, </rant>

Wez :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] SherlockHolmz:
Unless you have a Windows pre NT 5.0 ( 2000, XP is 5.1 ), registry got allot more robust at around year 2000, so not messing with it, is usually the better choice. RPM has nothing to do with if a drive is fast or not, it depends on the disk a 5400 RPM disk can have faster searchtime and R/W speeds then a 7200 RPM drive. Tho, this is not really an issue at all, if you use a OS made within the last 10 years.

I just checked over about 2-3 minutes with astro, if anything grabbed CPU time, only update checks on widgets grabbed 1% here and there, rest was on zero.

Now, this was only 2-3 minutes randomly.. but if this was such a big issue as you make it out to be, then there should be more then 1% here and there, more like leaks? Could you give me an example of such a program so i can test it for myself please?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wezternator:
I'm not saying the phone does get laggy with any apps. i'm just stating what the OP wrote isn't always true.

On a side note, the speed of a drive normally would reduce performance and it increase seek times over large, fragmented files.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] gudge:
without auto task killer and manual task killer, my phone grinds to a hault. I need to kill tasks regularly to keep the phone working fast.....and its not just my imagination.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] btdag:
When was the last time you ran your phone without a task killer (clean install)? I'm fairly certain it is your imagination - or you're using a program which has a memory leak that you're unaware of. I always felt that my phone was slower/buggier when running with a task killer running than it is now but there was probably little difference (aside from slow app loading times).

Have you noticed how unstable a PC gets after having a registry clean? Most of the one click ones ruin your OS IMHO. Also even a bloated registry is tiny in size and searching through one isn't exactly difficult.

@luvgirl - i hope that is a joke...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ratson:
Hi,

few things to clear:

quote from my site, faq page. http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/faq

i hope this is clear enough, and this is the why, that users of AutoKiller (yes, it is not Auto-Killer) experience better overall performance.

you even mention:

AutoKiller doesn't kill any applications (unless you manually do so on the 2nd or 3rd tab), just sets the limits when inner cleaning routines shall start.

i also recommend reading this great review.

so the whole picture has more details than you stated, it is not only about RAM, it is much about sleeping apps in background consuming cpu/battery. and it looks you didn't know what AutoKiller does. i hope this post will help.

sorry if i hear offensive, any ways thank you for your opinion, i hope the picture is much clearer now ;)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] inorde:
Pro-appkiller:

CPU usage of "background" apps can be too high if they are programmed badly. A user like me can't know beforehand if an App is programmed badly, and thus after installing 5 different apps you can't really know which one is causing battery drain and slugginess because they use too much CPU.

appkillers kill these background apps (sooner than Android would anyway) and prevent bad programs from eating your CPU/Battery

Con-appkiller:

Apps like mail, phone, messages and stuff are cached and therefore always quickly accessible. They are not unloaded by an appkiller.

Bottom-line:

- Appkillers are useful if you install a lot of crap and you're not good at identifying crappy applications.

- If you don't download a lot of apps and keep a little track of what's going on on your phone, you don't need an appkiller.

[Desire General] :
Hey guys,

I have just bought a new sd card and i just wondered, will i have to reflash the rom when i insert a new sd card, because i have an ext4 partition for my applications.. What is the actual process for applying a new sd card to a custom rom with apps to sd ext4 parition?

Cheers;)

JD;)
[Desire General] The Professor:
You can jump into Linux, partition the new card as required, and move the data from your old card's ext partition to the new card's, and all should work well. Alternatively, you can back up all your apps using Titanium Backup, format the new SD card in recovery, boot up, install Titanium, and restore your apps using that.
[Desire General] PaoloWeckl:
wich card do you bought? i was actually looking for a 16gb class 4 by Sandisk, with USB reader. price=80 euros with home delivery.
[Desire General] :
Just bought a class 2 16gb san disk, 34.99 play.com with free delivery, ;)

Cheers prof,

[Desire General] deovferreira:
Please direct this questions to the general section, developer expertise isn't really required to answer those.
[Desire General] Jagdish84:
Dont you need reinserting the titbackup folder bk on new sdcard before one can restore the apps? :)
[Desire General] :
Mate, will you kindly get off your high horse and use your comments and energy for more constructive issues, I needed a question answered, and it was, I cant help it if people keep continuing this thread.

and it does need dev attention because it was regarding a partition that is new to us desire owners, ext4,

So let the moderators moderate please and use your energy in a more kind productive fashion,

Cheers,

JD;)
[Desire General] The Professor:
Well, yes, but I assumed that was understood. You need to restore the entirety of the contents of your SD card once partitioned for Titanium Backup to find the backups and restore them.
[Desire General] :
Understood fine prof;)

JD;)
[Desire General] deovferreira:
I am sorry if I offended you, it was not my intention at all. It's just that the desire development is getting some momentum and things should be organized a little better in this forum.

And I am using my energy just fine, thank you.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
Yeah its locked to Orange. A turbosim is something that you stick to your own simcard, it then tricks the phone into thinking its using the network it was intended for. I got mine from good 'ol ebay.

Search for turbo sim or rebel sim

Went to a local service, i payed 12 euros for unlocking (not with codes) ...

I not sure how those guys unlocked it, but i know they used a jtag and maybe used a hboot that obviously skips the "locking" security :P Don't know for sure (they didn't disassembled the phone for soldering pins and stuff :) the screws are still with the "void" sticker)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bashir_Amin:
You can get an unlock code for a reasonable price at this site:

simunlocks . com

HTC uses database with codes, so there is no miss and hit.

2. EVO CDMA - LEO GSM

3. Touch interface is different! (this is the worst part to my knoledge)

4. the mainboard is different!!!

5. The Camera is different!

The only thing theese two have in common is the facts that both have been made by HTC and both have 4.3" display! BTW it is different too! the EVO have AMOLED display if I'm not mistaken!

So NO the EVO CAN'T and will NOT help with the development of the linux kernel for the HD2!
