[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L_Mo:
I installed flash per (oops - too new to post links. Search for 'Working full Flash' in the Themes forum) and it does indeed appear to work. However, some things are not working as expected...

1) Can't seems to find a full TV episode site that works. Hulu blocks (fine). NBC seems to start loading, but then I just get a black screen.

2) Attempted to play the live EVE Online tournament (no links, use Google), and again it seems to load but I only get a blank screen.

3) When using 4G (in place of wireless) the page loads while displaying the 'hourglass' icon, but seems to stop loading after a point. If I hit the stop ('x') icon in the address bar, the whole page has loaded. I was trying this out with homestarrunner.com as an example...

The above may just be par for the course, but I'd like to make sure it's not just me... Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] hometownnerd:
Hello. I have a Samsung Saga and would love to have a battery bar at the top like the one by spb and this one... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=480914 ...but I am not knowledgable in C++. The bars currently use notifications for the percentage and the Saga uses a registry entry for the battery, so there are no notifications that support the battery utilizations. I have made use of a mortscript I modified that replaces the owner bar information on the today screen with the battery info including now an estimator of how long I can use my phone before I need to charge for the Saga. I just wish I could also have the battery bar at the top, can anyone help with this? Maybe a battery bar could be written that just reads a certain registry entry that I could populate every couple of seconds with the percentage or something similar?

Thanks for any help you can provide,

Hi, i am trying to install app2sd using the Nimbu guide found here : http://nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire/

However, when i follow that guide and start to flash from the sd card, i get this error:

E:Can't symlink /system/xbin/[

E:Failure at line5:

symlink busybox SYSTEM:xbin/[

The card i am using to flash the app2sd is NOT partitioned. Is this an issue?

Here is some other info on my phone

- i have an orange phone, but i reflashed to the 1.21.... generic rom

- After installing this rom, i flashed the radio back to this one: update-bravo-radio-32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11-signed.zip

If you need any more info let me know and thanks for your help
[Desire General] gyro11:
ok, just to update this...

i have now managed to install app2sd by reinstalling rootedupdate.zip

HOWEVER, now when i turn my phone on it just goes to the white HTC screen and hangs there, it doesnt ever boot up. Can anyone shed any light as to why its doing this and how i can fix it?

i have partitioned the SD card and did install it with a goldcard

in the mean time im gonna flash back to a non app2sd rom
[Desire General] gyro11:
anyone know why it might be doing this? it just hangs on the white htc splash screen straight after powering on
[Desire General] MasDroid:
If you are stuck in a boot loop, then like you suggested, it's most likely because you have not partitioned the SD Card.

You only need to create a Gold Card if your phone is software branded and is running a non-generic rom.
[Desire General] gyro11:
but ive rebooted the phone with a partitioned SD card and that doesnt work...Does the card i install App2sd need to be partioned?
[Desire General] MasDroid:
You replace the Gold Card sd card with your normal sd card. Then in recovery, you need to partition your SD card, this is for the benefit of allocating extra space with the ext partition, which is used specifically for the installation of App data.

That's why it is recommened to set a 0MB swap, ext2 with 512MB (

for apps

), and the rest of the partition to FAT32.

Make sure you wipe Factory Reset, Dalvik, Cache, SD:EXT and then flash the ROM. After you have done this and while you are still in recovery (don't reboot phone yet), install Apps2SD zip (only if you are installing a ROM that does not include Apps2SD). Power off phone and then insert your sd card into the phone (not the Gold Card). You then enter Recovery Mode again and partition the SD card accordingly.
[Desire General] gyro11:
ok, but im not sure your understanding (i might be wrong...)

I have 2 sd cards....1 which is a gold card which is NOT partitioned and contains the install file for app2sd

and 1 which is the sdcard i run in my phone under normal operation.

I am ONLY using the non partitioned card to install app2sd. As soon as it is installed i remove this card and insert the Partitioned card

Does this make sense? So i know that a partioned sd card Must be used when running the phone with apps2sd, but do i need a Partioned goldcard just to install it? i can i just use a standard goldcard for the installation (and then put in the partioned card after installation) (note...i am using a goldcard as i have an orange uk desire with a generic rom)
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Ah yes i understand you now. Yep, the Gold Card should not be partitioned, only formatted as FAT32. After you have used the Gold Card to install Apps2SD, you then insert the other SD card and partition using that.

[Desire General] gyro11:
ok, so that is how i had it, with the partioned sdcard, but i am still getting the white htc splash screen and not getting any further. Any idea why this might be happening?

im installing it on the 1.21... update
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
try ext3 , NOT ext2

that did it for me.
[Desire General] gyro11:
Do you mean to select the option:

SD:ext2 to ext3

as i have already done that and it didnt work :(
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Hmm... strange...

Have you tried repartitioning your sd card? Set the values for swap and ext to zero, then check to see if it boots ok.

-------------------------------------

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
[Desire General] gyro11:
nope, just tried with these settings and unfortunately still no luck. I even tried it without any sdcard in there at all and still the same result.

Could the radio version have anything to do with it? as (other than the update) thats the only other thing ive flashed to it
[Desire General] MasDroid:
What Radio version did you flash exactly? I don't think that would cause a problem unless you flashed an incompatible version. Are you running Bootloader 0.75.0000 or 0.80.0000?

I would suggest you flash back to stock Radio and then flash back to stock ROM also, as this will restore the stock Kernel. Then after that, carefully take it step by step and try again.

From the steps you have carried out, it all sounds ok to me. When you attempt this again after returning everything to stock, try a ROM that already includes Apps2SD, leaving you to just partition the SD card (after wiping and flashing the custom ROM while in Recovery).
[Desire General] gyro11:
The rom im using is the rootupdate base (1.15) with the 1.21... generic rom manually installed.

I then flashed the following radio:

update-bravo-radio-32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11-signed.zip

This is really annoying as im finding myself flashing my phone daily now to get this working. I appreciate all your help but i think now im just gonna wait for a stable release of froyo to come onto the forums and update with that
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Thats the stock radio version that you re-flashed so don't see how that would cause a problem.

Lock screen

The lock screen doesn't have the option to choose a wallpaper. If you change your background is not going to be the same of the lock screen cuz you don't have ability to change the wallpaper for the lock screen or put a photo. That is the only thing you need to fix. So far best rom I used in my opinion keep up the good job.

This one really blew me! You've made me remove the tight cover to smell my desire :D and to me its regular electronics smell...

Ask someone else about it if, but don't initially say its smells like celery, ask what the other person smells and see what you get :)
[Desire General] Stewge:
I'm not sure where you got the "celery" smell from (I hate celery :P) but I suggest removing the battery to see if it has ballooned. Usually you'll see a noticeable "bubble" or it has expanded on the front and back. The funky smell could be caused by a hole in the cover or if the battery has already burst (the smell is toxic btw...).

If it has ballooned stop using it immediately! It is possible for the battery to explode from the pressure. I've yet to see one catch fire or anything like that but I have seen one bust the back cover off an iPod ;)

These days it's uncommon unless you buy a cheap knock-off battery from ebay or something like that. Just take it back to the store or ring/email HTC, replacement should be covered by the warranty.

Otherwise...it's probably just a generic plastic smell...damn, now I gotta go smell mine....
[Desire General] LBTaylor1984:

If you sniff the headphones socket it smells of oranges. And that's because its the cleaner used in manufacturing electronics

Try downloading JuicePlotter from the Market-Place (It's free). It'll tell you how hot your battery is. If it's overheating you will get that smell, and it may be a sign of imminent battery failure. Hottest mine has been yet is 37.6.

Don't smell the charge socket - that's just kinda creepy.
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
I have Battery Indicator Pro, which shows percentage, temp, health and volts.

It just generally smells, everything under the back case is all celery like :(
[Desire General] Izarian:
True, but it shouldn't smell like celery through the case. If you take it off and sniff, mine smells like that too, but if he can smell it with the back still on...well...there;s something odd about that.
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Nononono, not through the case, just with the case off.

Noticed it when I hit a boot loop and had to remove the battery.
[Desire General] Izarian:
Oh! My bad! Nah, that's fine, it's the way it smells. All phone's smell odd inside, and some utterly stink the first time you charge them. Nought to worry about, it's just interesting though, how one phone can have so many smells, orange, celery, what's next, tomato?

[HD2 General] pcmedics911:
I've looked all over..and can't find a section that mentions push mail from yahoo, aol, etc.

I'm coming from the iPhone so the push mail works on the Yahoo side and I believe on the aol side.

I know that MS exchange has push feature to the phone but what about the other standards? gmail?

I noticed on Cookies HT there is a push mail icon but that did not work (i take it that's for ms direct push?)

Lastly...is there a setting or app that allows ALL mail to send / receive vs just doing one account at a time (annoying)?

Thank you!
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
the microsoft direct push functionality (supported on ALL windows mobile devices in at least the past 3-4 years) works with ANY microsoft exchange server.

this means it will work for gmail (i am using it myself!) because google has the exchange server on their end. google itself provides a generic windows mobile tutorial on how to set it up and you can find a video guide on youtube specifically on how to set it up on a stock HD2 (technique should work on custom ROMs too). my only additional advice is to back up your contacts (either to microsoft myphone or using pimbackup) before proceeding because the google sync can also upload your contacts to google, and you don't want your contacts to get nuked in case something goes wrong during the initial sync. another potential confusion you might face is that you will see the labels set up on gmail as folders on your device's client. by default, syncing of folders is disabled, but you can go into "manage folders" under one of the menus when viewing your inbox on the device to pick the folders that you want to sync in addition to the inbox. finally, the first sync may take several minutes (even an hour) depending on the duration you have set up to sync (i use a setting for last one month worth of emails) and on your connection speed (try to use wifi for the first sync).

i don't know about yahoo or aol but if they support the microsoft exchange server on their side, then push email should theoretically work in these cases also.

all in all, i rather like the functionality because it is highly configurable. you can even set up "schedules" such that it works in push mode on, say, weekdays from noon to midnight and switch to, say, 4 hour poll mode while you are sleeping.

then again, i haven't experienced push email on any other device such as the black berry or iphone so my view point is rather limited.
[HD2 General] dubie76:
Simply put yes. I have yahoo pop3 servive and get my yahoo mail just fine on the HD2
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
pop3 in "poll mode" is different from push email, which is what the OP was asking about.

however, for most practical purposes, pop3/imap in quick poll mode (like once every 5 minutes) is really not that bad, but it might adversely affect battery life.

i suppose poll mode is fine for most of us but some individuals/businessmen might rely on quick email delivery straight to their phone so its more logical to consider poll vs push as two separate technologies in discussions!
[HD2 General] Ibn MuSa:
Do the folders selected to be sync with inbox will sync automatically?

Hi,

I was searching for this and thank you for letting me know how to do it! I didn't know there is a "manage folders" option until I scroll down (Din knew I can scroll down, lol)

By the way, as mentioned above, do the folders selected sync automatically? Will they appear on the mail tab?

Thank you.
[HD2 General] geppo1975:
you can create an exchange account using your gmail login,if you have it,otherwise you can create a new gmail account and use it for send/receive your mail in push:in gmail web page you must add your yahoo account for check and than configure the exchange as i explane!
[HD2 General] djdanska:
pop3 is NOT push. There is a delay. Depends on when you have it checking.
[HD2 General] djdanska:
As far as i know, the default windows mobile does NOT support push email for yahoo. If you want push email, use seven like i did. Worked fine on my hd2.

http://community.seven.com/main.php

It will allow push email from yahoo and many others. It is NOT an email app where you read them in seven, but a tool to push it to your phones normal email program. (what you would be using now)

I have been using it for a long time and had no problem.

If i am only using 3G it goes down to about 5%.

Its probably due to how spotty and new 4g is. Its constantly searching for service. It might say you have full bars but you could be going in and out of 4g coverage.
[EVO 4G General] strung:
Ah, that is a bummer. I can't compare, don't have 4g in my area yet. Did notice the wimax radio firmware is about 8MB. Hopefully they can update it to be more efficient. Could be the spottiness of the 4G signal, wimax shouldn't be that much different than 802.11 in theory. I suppose it would require higher transmit power

Use the pre-installed MP3 trimmer. It will save the file to your

And you start 4G, simply leave the 4G connection on without doing anything on your device (but keep the screen on).

Let me know if after about 1-3 minutes you see the 4G connection drops and reconnects or not.

Changing the value in the above post to 300 fixed the reconnection problem for me, but i wonder if this problem was happening just in my area with the above value or not.
