The Evo isn't topping the battery off, that's all.

I think I *might* know a solution, I believe I saw the phone stores battery "calibration" or something like that. I'll look into it eventually.

[HD Mini General] kdwms:
I currently use an old Nokia 6230i for phoning / texting, and a Dell Axim PDA for my diary / taking notes in meetings / etc. Both are on their last legs, so I fugured a smart phone would be the best thing to replace both. Logic dictates WM would be the better O/S (everything I do is Windows), but I found the HD2 too big to carry around all of the time (I leave the PDA in my work bag now). So I thought the HD Mini would be ideal. After weeks of waiting, I managed to get my hands on a demonstration model in a shop yesterday.

Whilst it looked great, and was nice and small for carrying around, I could not get the keyboard to work for me (and my fingers aren't that large). I had assumed that I would turn the devive to landscape when I wanted to type a lot, but it seems that it only does this in the web browser or for texting. Have I missed something? I'm trying to get the Office apps (eg OneNote) in landscape for faster typing whilst in meetings.

I also read that the screen - which looked great indoors - is very difficult to see outdoors?

Can somebody more familar with this device answer these questions for me please?

TIA, Kevin
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
Use AutoRotate 1.2 or BsB Tweak 1.6 to get Mobile Office apps to go to landscape mode via g-sensor. This will enable you to use landscape keyboard.

I've tried it in Mobile Excel. Works as expected.
[HD2 General] bRkiX:
I need a little assistace please.

I have 16Gb card from day one with Leo, and installed over 80 apps on it, and many my docs settings and so on.

What would be the safest way to trasfer everything as it is to new 32gB card.

use somenthing like norton ghost? i thing just copy and paste wont work, and i would like to avoid that.

Thanx for any helpful advice.

:o:rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Archer:
Personally, I would use copy & paste. Either connect your device as a USB drive, or use a card reader. Copy everything from the root of the card to a folder on your PC, then swap the cards and copy everything back. It should just work - nice and simple.
[HD2 General] bRkiX:
i got an error in few seconds...

some file reported an error, and copy process stopped...

it would be easy, i know, but i just does not work...there are (i guess) some 10000 files on that card, and chances are some are garbled.

so i would avoid filesystem alltogether and try to clone, and if that does not work, then c/p folder by folder if it does not go other way.
[HD2 General] ebeam:
I connected my HD2 as a drive, copied the entire 16GB card to a folder on my PC, formatted the new card, copied everything back, absolutely perfect.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Yep, disk drive mode, or just put the card in a USB card reader. I just did that for 8-> 16GB swap. There's no "better" solution.
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
I do hope you bought that 32 GB card from a reputable source.

Many fake 32 GB cards are sold on sites like ebay.
[HD2 General] pa2ra:
No, the errors are probably due to the fact that your HD2 was running apps that are located on the SD and are 'locked' that way. So they will not be copied...

Just take the SD-card out, put it in a card reader of some sort and just copy & paste everything to a hard disk, and copy it to your new SD card. Should work 100%.
[HD2 General] antilagman:
I have copied the entire card over to my new 32gb But when i restart my device I get blank white icons???? and they are all the programs that i installed on my previous 16gb??? why why why, !!!! do i have to reinstall every app i had on my 16gb ????

can anyone help?
[HD2 General] mrn2012:
Did you enable "show hidden files" in your file manager on your PC? Sounds as if you havent copied all the hidden files.
[HD2 General] antilagman:
yep ! I did indeed

[HD2 General] Totallynewhere:
SD card only works 2/16 gigs

Might be unrelated, but I could use some help with my microSDHC 16gig and 8gig

I've used a card reader and the phone itself via activesync to copy files. Once I fill up to past 2gigs of files, any additional music or video file no longer functions and weird symbols appear in my folders and I guess you call it "corruption"

I've formatted and scanned for errors and still the same thing happens.

What is up?!
[HD2 General] hanissyazwan:
u got a fake micro sd card.
[HD2 General] Archer:
Yep. I had the exact same thing with a "8GB" memory stick, that turned out to actually be 1GB.
[HD2 General] hendr1k:
according to my knowledge, u can't copy like that, u need to hardreset your device and then using new microsd.

may be I am wrong, but it happen last time when I am using omnia i900. and it might be every sdcard has the different id.

or check with flash memory toolkit, it will show the information of ur micro sd
[HD2 General] Archer:
Definitely not mate - you must have had a problem with something if you needed to hard reset to swap SD cards. One of the selling points of most up-to-date devices is "hot-swapping". Did you maybe have encryption switched on?
[HD2 General] 3octaves:
You need TeraCopy, its free and great, replaces stupid windows crap copy function.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Nukie_Freak:
Hello everyone,

I just got done rooting my girlfriends original MyTouch using the Goldcard method. Right now it's fully rooted and running Cyanogen 5.0.8 Test 4 and outside of not reading ringtones off the memory card, it's working great. My only question though is why does it still show the Vodafone logo when you reboot it? I rooted mine when the one touch method first came out and I get the MyTouch logo when you restart. I think I followed the guide to a 'T' but maybe I missed something. Anyone have any input?

Also, would anyone have any reason why my ringtones aren't being noticed of the SD card? After a couple of restarts, a fix permission and some cache wipes it will show the alarms on the card but not the ringtones (and yes they are in the right folder). It is a cheap, nasty 1 GB card until her 8 GB shows up, so maybe that's the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] marvoh:
My hero just froze when a call came in and count get it to work until I removed battery. It went past the Hero bootscreen and kept restarting. I tried wiping, reflashing with the stock rom that was running to no avail.

It only started working when I flashed custom roms and then I realized the camera is dead, only showing black when started.

Any ideas on how to revive it?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzvibish:
OK, this is the situation. I, and my sys admins, are at a total loss.

I set up my Activesync settings on the EVO exactly correct. It verifies the settings, and takes me to the "mail, Contacts, calendar" screen. I hit finish setup, and it gives me "Failed to create Account. Please try again later."

Now, for the weirdness.

I can sync my account with no problems on a friend's iphone.

My friend can sync his Exchange on my EVO with no problems.

So, that rules out both the phone and the server.

All the settings that cause problems (like enabling passwords for devices) have been set the right way, and I know that there are users running Android 2.1 that don't have this problem.

I had this before rooting and flashing, but now I have Rooted (all the way through NAND access) and flashed the Fresh Evo ROM, and it still doesn't work.

Other than wiping out my account in AD and starting over, I have exhausting every option I know of.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzvibish:
i went as far making a new mailbox profile with default settings in the exchange server for myself. still no success. I'm about to wipe my profile away, but that doesn't seem like the right direction simply because I can get activesync to work on another device.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzvibish:
I have successfully rooted my EVO through the NAND root, so I should be able to alter ROMs while not in recovery, right?

If so, is there a way to add fonts by sticking them in the /system/fonts folder with adb? It's giving me a read-only error.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeykrim:
this question should be on the questions board, not development.

you need to mount the /system partition as read/write before you can alter it. on boot the system is mounted as read only.

the way i do this is thru adb shell using the command mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system but ive seen it posted adb remount works too . good luck!

I'm hearing from our IT guy that handles our mobile accounts that our Sprint rep has placed an order for me, but that the phone is on backorder.

Anyone else hearing this?

Anyone know how long I'm looking at?
[EVO 4G General] sidepart:
Where have you been? I'm guessing that you're going to be looking at 1-2 weeks. In my area, the local Sprint store has a wait list of about 60 (and rising) people. He did tell me though that as of this week, they are getting roughly 10-20 a day, each day. So, hopefully by Monday next week, there'll be stock for people to just go in and grab one.
[EVO 4G General] bkfitz:
Well, I knew that it was on backorder around a week ago (June 8 reports), but then I read that they were back in stock (June 10th reports). I assumed that they were still in stock, but apparently not.

My order for one was placed yesterday...1-2 weeks! I sure hope not!!!!
[EVO 4G General] bkfitz:
Just chatted with sprint.com and they said its not available on sprint.com or telesales and they don't know when it will be available again. They said if you can find a store with it, that's your best bet.... unreal!

this sucks because they are having trouble ordering my replacement :(
[EVO 4G General] bkfitz:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Guest2010:
Hi,

I have difficulties to synchronize my T-Mobile MDA Vario III with my new laptop with Win 7. I am getting the WMDC Error whenever I attempt to synchronize my mobile phone with my laptop. I guess there is something wrong with either my new laptop or WMDC because I managed to synchronize the same mobile phone with my old laptop (Win XP) which runs the old 'good' activesync.

The relevant specs of the involved device, software and systems including the summary of the synchronization issue follows:

My mobile phone:

T-Mobile MDA Vario III aka HTC TyTN 2 aka Kaiser aka Tilt

ROM version: 3.31.110.3 WWE

ROM date: 09/01/08

Radio version: 1.70.18.02

Protocol version: 25.83.40.02H

System: Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional

CE OS 5.2.19212 (Build 19212.1.0.3)

My laptop:

Acer Aspire 5536

System: Windows 7

Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1.6965

What I have tried so far:

Reinstalled WMDC and rebooted my laptop (several times)

Reset my mobile phone each time before attempting the synchronization

Turned off firewall & antivirus on both laptop and mobile phone while synchronizing

Upgraded my mobile to the latest ROM (from 1.5 to 3.3)

Ran Windows updates including all optional ones I could think of that could help

Unchecked the 'Enable advanced network functionality' option in Settings/Connections/USB to PC on my Vario

Played with different settings on WMDC

What I know that works:

ActiveSync on my old Toshiba laptop (Win XP) where I can transfer files between my Vario phone and Toshiba laptop.

Bluetooth works between my Vario mobile and Acer laptop as well as Toshiba laptop, which enables me to transfer files but not synchronize contacts & emails with Outlook on Acer.

Is there anything out there that I can still try? Does anyone have any advice for me? I would really like this to make work as I do not want to revert back to my old laptop and XP because of this silly sync issue... :-)

I would be extremely grateful for any useful tips...

Many thanks!

Anyone with the working WMDC synchronization?

All,

I wonder if there is anyone with the same phone (T-Mobile MDA Vario III aka HTC TyTN 2 aka Tilt) who has managed to make it synchronize with your PC using WMDC (Win 7)?

If yes, was it straightforward or did you have to use any workaround or tweak your device or PC?

I would like to get to the bottom of this issue. There must be a solution out there!

Many thanks,

What error do you get?

Have you try another usb cable?.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Guest2010:
I get a generic (non-specific) WMDC Error - see the Attachment.

As for the USB cable, I do not think there is anything wrong with it as it works fine with my other laptop (Win XP) where I can synchronize successfully using ActiveSync.

I wonder what else I can try?

Thank you,

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
Ohh boy, It's the first time I see this dude. Does clicking on the help gives you any description of the error?

Try another cable just in case, have U click activesync from your phone and see if something happens?

Check on your PC Hardware also and see if you have an issue with your usb ports.

As for the generic WMDC Error, the Windows Mobile Device Center does not give any information about the Error (nothing about the Error in the help either).

However, I have checked the Microsoft Event Viewer and I found the following Error message there: "the Windows Mobile-based device failed to connect due to communication (0x80072745) failure (see data for failure code)." - see the Event Properties and Event Details attachments for more information. Any idea what this error means and more importantly how it can be fixed?

After having spent the whole weekend on troubleshooting the sync issue, I am slowly running out of new ideas...

There are so many posts on internet regarding this issue but it appears to me that there is no silver bullet to resolve it.

In my humble view, I believe that what could fix the sync issue is to find the root cause of the following error that I get whenever I try to sync:

Copied from the Event Viewer: "the Windows Mobile-based device failed to connect due to communication (0x80072745) failure (see data for failure code)."

Any suggestions how to tackle this communication error?

P.S. Does anybody know when the next upgrade of WMDC is scheduled to be released by Microsoft? I wonder if there is any other software out there that can do what WMDC does so as I do not have to use WMDC to sync?
