[Touch GSM General] TH3KiD:
Hello Everyone,

Few Months Back My Chinese HTC Touch used to get stuck all the time on the windows mobile welcome screen. I searched for like 15 days and finally got a fix. Someone had posted a file which i had to put up in my SD Card and perform a booting option. Then like windows it got reformatted and my phone started to work fine. Since due to some problem i have lost that image file now. I am curios as i cant find it now from the internet. Is there any way i can get it out from my phone? it works fine for now.

Edit: Please get me the file which i put up in my sd card and boot it up. It is very hard for exe files>Connecting the phone to the pc and all that. i tried many....none worked

I hope you don't mind answering a question for me or pointing me in the right direction. I turned off Sense UI to save battery life and use the Windows Default setting. On my Home screen, the category Pictures appears and if I swipe to the left or right, the thumbnails appear. However, if I tap the picture to open it, I get the following message:

"The file 'IMAG002' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstaling or restoring this file."

This issue came about after trying to move all my photos from the HD2 to a folder on my desktop. I'm not sure if I accidentally moved/deleted an essential file, but it's almost impossible to view photos unless I switch back to Sense UI. I scoured the forums for an hour with no luck, but I would appreciate any assistance you could provide.

If it helps, I'm using the ROM version (22.May.2010 WWE). Thanks!
[HD2 General] SecrtAgentMan:
Well you could try copying all the files to your desktop, then reformat the memory stick.
[HD2 General] kasebeats:
Taking for granted that you have downloaded 'Omarket' for your handset (an app that lets you download many more apps), search for File Explore Extension (found under Utilities/Plugins).

This will not install with an app icon to your start menu, it simply expands the functions of the existing file explorer. Once installed, if you click and hold the file giving you trouble, one of the options will allow you to assign any of the programs to open the file types of your choice. Obviously the assigned program must first be able to accommodate the file type for this to work.

This is the easiest (and most beneficial) solution I could think of. Hope I helped
[HD2 General] spoo56:
Thanks everyone! SirPhunkee advised me that I was missing the "album.cache" file in my DCIM\MEDIA100 folder. I cleared the memory card and started over from scratch. Ultimately this corrected the issue. Thanks again!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
I have a mytouch 1.2, and currently i'm not ready to run another ROM besides stock (waiting for T-mobile push - i'm only waiting until the end of july), but i would like to go ahead and install the Amon_RA 1.7.0G recovery.

I've got my goldcard made, the sappimg.zip ready on it, but i just can't bring myself to flash a new ROM and wiping just yet.

harm or or? or is it pretty much pointless to do the recovery and nothing else?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
I'm pretty sure the update from Tmo flashes their ROM, radio and recovery image, so when they push Eclair, froyo, whatever, you'll be 100% back to stock.

Anywho, the ROM should be leaked as an update.zip before it's pushed out to everyone, it can be flashed from either the stock recovery or a custom recovery image.

If I was you I'd just root it not, flash CM, and see what happens in about a months time...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
Thats true, tho i didnt want to root get setup on cm then having to unroot, wipe get to the OTA update. Then realize i dont like it and go back to rooting and cm. I figure measure twice, cut once...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] digitaljeff:
Why don't you want root? Cm is leaps and bounds better than any stock rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
Well, i will root. I was going to root last month, until i heard official rom was coming..

Attached is an updated f12.sh (minor tweaks made as I've noticed issues come up)
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
wow, this is quite interesting!

i might venture into giving this a try.

two pieces of information, only as an FYI, i make no claim to whether or not these are better than the method you provide, only an alternate method which might or might not be better. perhaps a combination of methods would be best? i'll leave it up to the end user to decide.

1) some of those binaries you mention, like strace are already provided by the userdebug PC36IMG.zip (root part 1) in system/xbin from HTC. if anybody wants these binaries, they can be extracted from the system.img inside of the .zip file using unyaffs. if requested, i can post.

2) android open source project, which contains all the source files for android, provides dropbear has a compact arm compiled ssh client.

thanks for taking the time to test all this out and posting up the detailed step by step along with your .sh file!!!

I was going to order the Active from Amazon, but it says it takes 2-3 weeks to ship. By that time there hopefully will be some decent cases out, because none of the ones out are that great. Anyone know of any place to order them that has em in stock? Im guessing not since its an Amazon exclusive case..

[EVO 4G Accessories] bluehaze:
Active is nicer but bulky, I use it for work but take it off when not working. If you do work where the phone can easily get damaged active is worth it offers lots of protection otherwise I would definitely go with Surface as it's much slimmer actually I would probably go with no case unless you really need it LOL

Android Market download data is .apk right?
[Desire Accessories] stortinget:
Hey, I need some advice on which card to get;

I like having loads of space, but I also want a card capable of recording p720 video and run apps from SD in a decent manner.

So what card should I go for; 16GB class10 kingston or a 32GB class2 Sandisk?

They are about the same price.
[Desire Accessories] dwizzy130:
I'd say go for the class 10 16Gb.

In my TP2 I have an 8Gb class 6 and read write speeds are wayyyy faster then my class 2 4Gb. A class 10 would be great for taking pics and videos without lag.

dwizzy130
[Desire Accessories] damuffinman:
True, but do you really need a min transfer speed of 10MB/s to store those pictures and videos? AFAIK, a picture taken using the Desire camera is approximately 1MB...

Just some food for thought.
[Desire Accessories] ugmeme123:
how about hd recording? whats the transfer speed?
[Desire Accessories] A|ex:
the Class 10 16GB wins hands down, try using class 2 in android 2.2, your phone will slow down so much its annoying when loading large apps from sd
[Desire Accessories] dwizzy130:
You don't "need" it, but you will notice a HUGE difference in the speed of taking and saving the pictures and videos.

dwizzy130
[Desire Accessories] SiL3nTKiLL:
class 10 hands down!
[Desire Accessories] stingerpl:
Get 32gb class 2 from SanDisk without question.

I have a SanDisk class 2 16GB microsd card. Here are the benchmarks:

Sequential Read : 17.914 MB/s
Sequential Write : 9.358 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 17.922 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 2.131 MB/s

Writing an image or 720p video is (more or less) sequential, so You can expect to have around 9MB/s which is more than enough. Class 2 means writing speed in worst case scenario is minimum 2 MB/s.

Do you have any tests/benchmarks that would show this? I, personally do not believe this since random read speed = sequential read speed = ~18MB/s.

Class 10 microsd card has about 23MB/s read speed. That is not much different from Class 2.

Besides, how big would an app need to be to notice the difference between 18MB/s and 23MB/s ????
[Desire Accessories] stingerpl:
Just found another benchmark of class 10 kingston:

http://www.ocworkbench.com/2010/KINGSTON/Kingston-Class10-16GB-SDHC-Review/p2.htm
[Desire Accessories] str355:
any chance you could do a benchmark with the speed tester app on the market to see if the speed is the same on the phone?

http://www.appbrain.com/app/br.com.fast4ward.sdcardspeedtester
[Desire Accessories] stingerpl:
My phone is currently in the service for warranty repairs. I can check it as soon as I get it back.

If it turns out slower on the phone, that would mean the phone is a performance bottleneck - proving class 10 cards even more pointless on Desire.
[Desire Accessories] philje123:
Seems the best bang for buck would be the 32gig one then judging by the very little difference in transfer speed!

Think I might look into one myself seen as though the desire has now become the replacement for my ipod video.

Phil
[Desire Accessories] str355:
that's my thinking behind it, no point getting a fast card if the phone is a bottleneck.

i've only got a slow card so cant confirm one way or the other, except i dont get any slowdown i notice with apps2sd.

on the phone my PNY class 2 16gb card:

3 MB/s write

14 MB/s read

on my laptop (with H2testw1.4) Clicky

3.95 MB/s write

14.8 MB/s read

not much difference for me, i still had apps running on the phone and using the tester via apps2sd - so probably about the same.

EDIT: just tested it again after a rebootiing the phone, 4MB/s write & 15MB/s read so mine is class 4 speed on the phone and my laptop.
[Desire Accessories] A|ex:
How did you get such reading i ran the application on mine and only got write speeds and reading speeds it also seems to always be .0, does it round up or down?

I did three runs and results were around Write 10.0MBs, Read 19.0MBs give and take a MB (results being the highest). I also get ClassUnknown on 2/3 of the tests!. The slowest was 8MB Write and Read 17MB which now i look at it doesnt seem to be that fast.

I did same tests on a 32GB Class 2 Sandisk and the results were the same compared to my class 10!!! cluster sizing is whatever windows 7 defaults them too, cards cleaned, not sure if its worth doing the tests again but with used space on SD?

I tried the same tests on 8GB Kingston / Sandisk 8GB Ultra Class 6, Class 4/2 are Kingston and Sandisk, both produce same results.

Class 6 and Write 7.0MBs, Read 14.0MBs,

Class 4 and Write 7.0MBs, Read 12.0MBs,

Class 2 Write 6.0MBs, Read 12.0MBs

I have not tried to benchmark these SD cards out of the phone onyl using that app but from looking at the app test results there seems to be so little gain for such big spend.
[Desire Accessories] c0d3r:
Reviving an old thread.. but i have two questions:

1- Are 16gb class10 cards even compatible with HTC Desire? There is no clear indication on this anywhere.. atleast to my info

2- Any class10 user here who can vouch for the difference in speed? Is spending 100$ really worth switching from a Class4 card??

Thanx in advance :D
[Desire Accessories] blacksage:
I had a class six card vs a class two that was larger with my HD two. And when running an app, such as Igo navigation which all the files were on the SD card I could tell that the bootup was faster. If you are just using a card for storage and not using it to run important things then go with the cheaper one.
[Desire Accessories] lby0327:
Class 10, this is the first time I heard this standard. How fast it can run ?
[Desire Accessories] Tyderion:
With an aligned partition you can get read/write speeds of about 10 MB/s instead of 2-3 MB/s. That's what I got on the PC. Dunno how to easily see this on the phone
[Desire Accessories] Rayan:
Ok, enough about read/write speeds!

There's not only advantages on speed with higher classes, there's also better performance in read/write cycles. Meaning longer life for our little buggers the higher you go in class.

You know that these things have limited write cycles right?

The choice is yours!

RayanMX
[Desire Accessories] bamboo12:
if you are just planning on using app2sd, it doesn't really matter which card you use, but if you're planning on going one step up like data2sd/data2ext then a 32GB class2 sandisk is much much much much much much much much much much much much much BETTER!

the reason why it's better is because what determines how much of an improvement data2sd/data2ext is over stock setup is how fast it can read/write small files (i.e. how fast it can write sqlite)

it's well documented that a class2 32GB sandisk (i'm only talking about that particular card, card of different size/class or manufacturer is a completely different beast) has a 4k random write speed of 2.5MB/s wheres kingston crap is about 0.04MB/s, sandisk32gbclass2 is 60 times faster than kingston crap

i foolishly listen to ppl on this forum about getting a class 10 microsd for improved performance so i bought myself a class10 4GB patriot microsd, it is a piece of sh!t! i benchmarked it with crystaldiskmark and sure enough squential read/write were 18/12MB/s well within specification. However the 4k random write was only 0.03MB/s

today after doing some research i forked out $20 to buy a class4 4GB sandisk which has 4k random write speed of 1.15MB/s, my phone has never been faster
[Desire Accessories] Rayan:
Did you tried to format the card with different file allocation sizes other than the default size?

You can choose the file allocation if you format the card on your PC.

That makes a lot of a difference!

However I'm not sure how to do that on Ext partitions.

Cheers and happy holidays!

Rayan
[Desire Accessories] bamboo12:
but probably not make it 60x more efficient though, there's probably a good reason why a class4 sandisk cost more than a class 10 of other brands
[Desire General] mayad79:
Hey folks,

I just made an ebay purchase for an A8183.

I recieved it today and the box barcode and labeling match the imei and model number, but under the status setting it says A8181. The back says next g and telstra plus the box matched the sellers description.

The seller is allowing me to return it. So everyone planning to scoop one up, make sure the seller sends you a picture of the status page under settings, and it says a8183.

peace
[Desire General] madsere:
My Desire is A8181 as well. What's the difference?
[Desire General] mayad79:
Frequency for hsdpa/umts. a8183 is for att in the usa.
[Desire General] d.cortez:
it's possible that the seller flashed an A8181 ROM. if you haven't done so already, did you test to confirm you could/could not use at&t 3G? what is the model number under the battery? A8181 or A8183? i mention this because if i used a UK ROM cook's European ROM on my Telstra Touch HD, it would show a UK ROM number. it didn't matter tho, i could still connect to at&t 3G. oh yeah, my HTC Telstra HTC Desire also says A8181, but i can connect to at&t 3G without a problem. the seller flashed a UK ROM on the device.
[Desire General] mayad79:
I got a feeling your right, because everything matches under the battery. It says a8183, but the status page under settings shows a8181.

The build number as I investigate show test keys in their tag.

What radio are you using? Its the baseband I believe.

Any suggestions?
[Desire General] 2revup:
Yeah I am using the nextG branded and I got it from the telstra shop, so it is legit, but I just checked mine and it says 8181, though mine has been rooted, did its have any of the telstra cooked in crap or not? if not then I would say it was actually legit.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Presumably you are using this on AT&T in the US. If so, if you can get a 3G connection, it's an A8183 and you are good to go.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] mayad79:
Definitely AT&T, the lack of 3g is what tipped me off. But there was no telstra software apps, just branding and packaging.

Also the baseband was not the same as the Telstra specs, and the rom version was not found anywhere within xda or google. I think the kernel version ended with the word test keys. 1.21 and

But I got my refund and reordered an unopened today from A GA company.

Is it possible that the radio or rom was to blame for the lack of 3g. I think it can from my should I say lack of experience porting android over windows.

Caint wait... I have been having withdrawal syptoms since I did the return. Suddenly my free backflip is awkward and dull.

peace,
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patelkedar91:
Okay, I posted this elsewhere, but got amateur answers.

I came from the Palm Pre. Yes, so lovely to have games like Nova, Asphalt 5, and others running buttery smooth.

Now that I am using the Evo, I'm looking for a fix to my gaming needs.

I have Raging Thunder II. Works nicely (besides the 30fps cap... a gamer can tell)... and I'm about to buy Exzeus Arcade.

So I did some research.

Edit: Can't post links. Google "snapdragon qualcomm" and first link, go to video demonstrations.

That's what my phone is capable of. Wow, I'm thinking that this could be really good.

So the Snapdragons that N1, Incredible, and Evo have have the Adreno 200 GPU. Our phone can seemingly do a lot with that GPU.

My question is there are multiple benchmarks that have other GPUs kicking Adreno's butt. Specifically, the Droid (original), Samsung Galaxy, etc.

So a couple questions to people who have knowledge on this subject.

1. Can games be optimized for the Snapdragon family?

2. Is it hard to develop games for it? Do you see game developers porting and optimizing their games just for us?

3. Can we expect games up to par with other phones?

I tried playing Asphalt 5... lag like no other.

I e-mailed Gameloft and haven't gotten an answer back.

They have their own page for the evo (go to their website on your evo)...

I'm also asking cause there are a lot of people with N1's, Incredibles, and Evos... shouldn't game developers target them?

Also cause I wanted to game on this freaking large screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oOflyeyesOo:
Alot of companies that develop games are starting to work with android alot more, and seeing it up to par with iphone and pre. Id say by xmas they will really be going strong, but by then the dual core snapdragons will be coming out, and they know this, so there will be something amazing coming for its release.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patelkedar91:
Also, some of those videos found on Qualcomm's Snapdragon page are from 2 years ago...

It makes me think ... what have they been doing for the last 2 years?

I think this is what you are looking for. But the favorites tabs are not any smaller.. but you and have as many as you want/need and then some.

You will need a reg editor to make this change how ever. I use Resco, it is'nt free though.

46. Enable More Than 10 URL Thumbnail Shortcuts on Internet Tab

By default you only get 10 shortcuts to your favourite websites on the internet tab. Now you can have as many as you want (multiples of 2) or even less than 10 if you so wish.
