Every time I plug it into my computer, even if I choose "Charge Only," I will lose all access to my SD card. I even tried turning off USB debugging, but that didn't fix it. It will simply show up on my desktop. Is there a setting that will let me disable this? Is it a driver I installed on my computer that forces it to give access to the SD card?

I've already ended up corrupting my SD card once which forced me to reformat it, I don't want to fear charging it on my PC.
[EVO 4G General] sph33r:
I've heard that if you have DoubleTwist installed, it makes the SD card mount automatically. I haven't tested this fully but I just installed it yesterday and now I have the same issue with my SD card mounting when plugged in. So.. it's probably true.
[EVO 4G General] Minjin:
Have you applied the OTA update?
[EVO 4G General] sph33r:
If it happens that you are in fact using DoubleTwist, there is a setting in the app that let's you toggle auto mount. Turn it off and you should be golden.
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
Thanks guys, I did have it installed. I hadn't even opened it once yet. I didn't think an app could have that kind of power without needing root.
[EVO 4G General] datajosh:
Wow thanks for this thread! I couldn't figure it out either... would have never guessed it was DoubleTwist.
[XPERIA X10 General] rvictorg:
So in light of the news about the Evo 4G having a frame rate of only 30 fps, which according to everyone on the net is horrible, I decided to download the Fps2D app for testing the X10 myself. And guess what? Only 31 fps.

I've run the test multiple times changing settings etc and tried rebooting as well to get different scores, but it is 31 every time. Perhaps it is being capped at 30 like the Evo as discussed here?? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=699290

Am I the only one who's run this test so far? Why has no one else commented on this "issue" yet or are everyone else' fps test results good? The Evo just came out and yet we've had our X10's for 2 months now! Could this be the reason why the X10 feels so laggy at times?

I'm curious what you all think and what scores your tests show and whether or not any of this is matters. I honestly do not know, just basing my concern on the fact that anyone with an Evo is up in arms right now about it.

X10a

R1FA014

fps: 31
[XPERIA X10 General] sl1nk3:
Well, I've noticed that too, I'm currently developing a 3D game and no matter what I put on screen and how complex the thing is I always get around 30fps. On the other hand it seems it can handle a really high number of polys at that framerate

Just for the record on a HTC desire the same app gets from 40 to 50fps...

Also I read that this framerate issue is caused by the high resolution of the screen as the device might be fillrate limited, but I find it strange though.

(Sent from my X10)
[XPERIA X10 General] sspicer:
i'm using R1FB001 and i also get 31fps.
[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
i think 30fsp is just fine, for anything! movies, games, etc...

it might be even smart, if you run a game that could be run at 50fps using 100% of the cpu, you'll draing your battry faster

instead, you run it at 30fps using less of the cpu hence the battery lasts longer

does that make sense?
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
I knew before X10 was released that the screen was only about 30hz whilst the desire has around 78hz i think. Still though, the eye can only detect flickering if lower then 24hz aka 24 fps, i watch videos on my X10 and i am just amazed how beutiful it is nice colours even though donut only gives 65k and really crisp and fluid images. Nothing to complain about. To me 30fps is only positive since it consumes alot less battery!

[XPERIA X10 General] tekknix:
What the hell are you doing ?

In Germany it's called "Schwanzvergleich" (mine is bigger and thicker than yours...).

2 Frames less or more is not so important.

With Froyo-Release more and more applications will not run any longer with 1.6 Android. Therefore it is more important to get a actual OS to our Phones.

Does the other Phones running Android 1.6 as you compared them to our X10?

If not, maybe the X10 will be slower if we will got Froyo (or 2.1 or nothing at all).

Best regards

New Benchmark Test Results

no I'm not kidding you! I only got 31 fps, hard to believe I know!

And all those links useful, but Fps2D is a test for 2D not 3D (hence the name) and that's what my original post was discussing.

There's a lot of information floating around on the net, you all can check it out yourselves. It seems like most other highend Android phones running stock or custom ROMs are getting between 50-65 fps, nearly double the X10. Like I said earlier, I don't know if this all really matters, videos look great on the X10, but flipping through menus and home-screens it gets noticeably laggy for me. I'm merely bringing up all this because of the Evo results and how everyone seems to care about it only pumping out 30 fps yet no one has mentioned anything about the X10.

Some benchmarks on the N1 running Froyo, very impressive to say the least.

http://blog.laptopmag.com/android-2-2-froyo-tested-more-than-twice-as-fast-as-2-1

I've run all three of these tests on my X10, here are my best results. It appears that the X10 is solid at 3D graphics, but falls flat everywhere else. Perhaps all this is only a product of running 1.6 compared to 2.0 or higher??

Linpack: 4.155 <--Just better than Samsung Galaxy! AMAZING

[XPERIA X10 General] tekknix:
From my perspective we cannot (or better should'nt) compare different brands ruunning on different OS!

Nobody will compare his Win98 Benches with outdated Drivers to Win7 and the newest Drivers...

Once Froyo can be installed we can discuss it again.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admorris:
I am having battery issues, almost to the point that I want to take this beautiful phone back. I have adjusted every setting I know to adjust, including the CDMA fix (was already on cdma). I am getting about 6 hours max out of my phone with light usage (maybe 20 mins worth of calls, 10-15 emails, 10-20 text, 15 mins. or so of internet/facebook usage). One thing I notice a lot throughout the day is that my 3g upload and download arrows seem as though they are lit up more times than not. I am wondering if there is some hidden fix that maybe I am missing that would help with this. I checked sprint.com's data usage tool and see that I have downloaded 1.2gigs of info in 3 days (seems excessively high to me). I also notice today that my phone was pretty warm to the touch for a few hours straight. Back to being cool now.

any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neotelos_com:
Get a task killer, that is most likely caused by background application traffic.

You can also uninstall some apps that may "poll" the internet that you happen to not use.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admorris:
Got Advanced Task Killer already set up to kill on screen close. Appears as though my damn calendar is literally sucking the life out of my battery and I have no idea how to turn it off. Went in to Applications and did a "touch to close" deal, but returns. This phone may be making a return back to sprint...nice toy, but actually need it to last more than a few hours at a time. Any way to delete calendar without rooting?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultron:
Do you also have a sync symbol always lit up? My EVO had some problems with syncing and wouldn't allow me to go into the Accounts and Sync settings. My fault - I had removed some .apks that it turns out I needed so my phone was constantly trying to poll it and giving me 100% Running time. Download Spare Parts and look at your battery history and see if you're getting Running to be high, or look at your Up Time versus Awake Time.

If they're high, go into Accounts and Sync in your settings and look at the options there. You may just need to turn off Auto-Sync to fix your battery issue so that it stops constantly polling your calendar.

Joeykrim's Custom Android Application Backup and Removal Update.zip

Disclaimer: Use this at your own risk.

ALPHA version - not very pretty. quick and dirty but its working!

Description:

The default is nothing. If you select nothing, it does nothing. This will ONLY backup and remove the applications manually selected.

This does not effect anything on the /data partition - meaning no data or settings will be changed by using this update.zip

Background:

This will allow stock applications (.apk and .odex) to be backed up to the sdcard (/sdcard/sdx/backup) and removed from the phone (/system/app). If an app is selected to be removed and its already removed, the script will keep going, it will not result in any kind of error or boot loop.

Requirements:

Custom Recovery - Few Suggestions:

[RECOVERY] Permanently replacing your recovery with ClockworkMod Recovery Image

[Recovery] [18-June-2010] RA-evo-v1.7.0.1 - Not compatible because it forces all .zip files to be signed and this online kitchen doesn't java sign the .zip files. In order to stay compatible, please manually sign the .zip file.

Instructions:

Check any combination of boxes below to combine actions into one custom-SDX-update.zip file.

Download this file and put it onto the /sdcard of the phone.

Boot into a recovery mode using a custom recovery (reboot recovery from adb shell or vol down + power).

Select Apply Update.zip and choose the zip.

Reboot.

Let me know if it works, doesn't work, etc. Thanks!

NEW HOST

http://www.joeyconway.me/evo/custom/index.php

Added more applications to the list. If there is an application which isnt on there that you want added, please post it and I'll add it!

To Do List: - Please post what you want added!

Add more safe apps to remove

Add boot animations

Custom Kernels

Themes

Potentially Other ROMS

Could you add GSD.apk, the sprint_promo apk, and all the stock and newsreader apk's?

Also does this remove the .odex files with the .apk?

Thanks for your work
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
yes, .odex files are also removed, ive added that to the directions.

i also added everything you mentioned above. for the stock and news apks, i might have missed one but tried to grab them all, i read if they are removed there are sync issues ... haven't heard it confirmed either way so i added a warning.

thanks for the feedback. hope it works? let me know!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vinscuzzy:
Joey, so good to see your skills being applied over here! One quick question, if we use this removal script and select an app that is already removed, will it cause any issues like a bootloop or failure? Or would if just ignore the missing app and move on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
good question. i can add this to my main post.

if you select an app which is already removed, it will attempt to remove it again and when it finds it not there, it will skip over it. will not cause a bootloop or any kind of failure!

update: added a few more requested apps to the list! let me know if there is anything else!
[EVO 4G Android Development] DomSim:
easy as can be, worked great!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Works great to remove not so much putting back unless there is a trick to it. I can't get mail to reinstall or nav
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
good point!

perhaps i could add a feature that allows apps removed using this method to be restored using this method.

putting back should be simple thru adb. i'd recommend doing it from recovery.

adb shell

cp /sdcard/sdx/backup/Mail.* /system/app/Mail.* (this will copy apk and odex if you're using a ROM with odex)

hopefully that helps! thanks for the feedback!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kshawn:

there are a few available here:

[RECOVERY] Permanently replacing your recovery with ClockworkMod Recovery Image
[EVO 4G Android Development] brock1909:
i do.

i have the RA EVo 1.7.0.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
probably need to toggle signature check? or choose install .zip and select the custom-SDX-update.zip, not the standard apply update.zip?

ive been using koush's clockwork recovery and it installs w/o any issues.

hope that helps!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brock1909:
how do you toggle signature check? everything else flashed fine from it, ROMS,radio etc

edit: replaced the RA recovery with Clockwork from ROM manager, and it worked. Thanks again.

com.htc.bgp has stopped unexpectedly. Have any idea what this has to do with? ( i wanna say maybe calander sync?)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ski05751:

Can you add Sprint Hotspot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
I love this app so great!!!! can't wait for more features
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
i can see this running in under settings->applications->running services and it lists it has dealing with PC synchronization.

if you can remember or still have the .zip file it created, can you post back which apps you chose and we can work to figure out which one created the issue?

any idea on the .apk file names? i see WifiRouter but not sure if that is the only part to the Sprint Hotspot?

give me some links to features you'd like to see and i'll do my best to work with the author and the current structure of this ROM builder to try and make it possible!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ski05751:
Yes, In another forum thread I read the files WifiRouter.apk & odek are the Sprint Hotspot.

perfect, confirms what i thought. they've both been added the apk and odex!

saw the wireless n mod this morning and got permissions to add and have added it.

i need to look into the lock screen cuz i saw some complicates with a replacement and i know it ties into HTC's sense ui extras, etc. links?

keep the links coming, ill keep combing through them and see which are easy to implement and which might be more complicated but ill keep everybody updated!

The Sprint Qik app is not being removed. Looking at your script it appears you have the file name capitalized QIK when it should be Qik.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brock1909:
Here is the script i used. Which caused me to get that error
[EVO 4G Android Development] arozer:
Thanks Joey.

I got rid of all that extra **** I didn't want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
i didnt double check the file just assumed you're correct. its been updated to Qik not QIK. thanks for the catch and research!

ive never had the com.htc.bgp force close error and nobody else here has reported it.

looking thru your attached .zip file, we've removed a lot of the same options. the only ones you've removed which i haven't personally experimented with are SDSA, GSD and all the *Weather* apks . Not sure any of those would effect PC sync though.

i'm still inclined to think it is more something with your phone's custom setup than with the actual script, but if you feel adventurous and want to troubleshoot, try first three set of apks i recommend above and let us know how it goes!

appreciate the positive feedback! its great to know its working and helping!
[EVO 4G Android Development] arozer:
That htc. force close issue you're talking about might be caused from one of the ROMs.

I know for a fast the BuglessBeat_v0.4 has it.

Are you sure it's not that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] elhalisf:
