Did you tried to load gallery, or some apps that read to sd?

I tried so many ROMS (ap2sd+ or not), all with problem (Whatever the music player: spotify, 3, stock player, etc.)

Except with vanilla ROMS, music run smoothly.

I have a LEXAR 16gb micro SD, class 4, with ext3 partion.
[Desire General] adjei7:
I also had the problem on Froyo, and traced or back to a widget I was using. Pure calendar. Not saying the widget is faulty, but it seems that the widget and maybe other widgets that call on processor power regularly may affect the music player. Changing the settings on the widget sorted the problem. See if there is a process or widget that is polling regularly, and that may be your problem. To be honest, on a multitasking phone with a processor like ours, this shouldn't be an issue, but hey...I may be wrong. Not sure if it will help you guys, but hope it will.
[Desire General] djboulette:
I tried different combination, even with no widget at all, and no running apps on backround, same problem.

I'd restore a old nandroid backup of my eclair stock rom, no problem a all, even with a tonne of widget and running apps.

HTC froyo for sure...
[Desire General] s24rrt:
I'm getting the same problem only since the ota update. Listening to music as I'm writing this and its fine but as soon as I access photos the music becomes laggy. I have a 4gb class 6 sd card so can't be the speed of that. I'm using task manager and there is loads if free memory... strange.

Can I ask aswel, the people who are having this problem, have you tried recording in 720p. I tested his out earlier and it seemed to record fine but The playback is really poor. Very jerky and laggy.
[Desire General] muc_waldek:
What transfer speed are you getting from the class 6 card? Measured on the phone, not on a pc.
[Desire General] s24rrt:
Ok I have just tested my mem card. It states class 6 on the card although the app that I used says 4mbps write and 6mbps read. The app states that this its a class 4 card so can't see that being the problem.

Any ideas anyone
[Desire General] swilza:
I updated to 2.2 yesterday and since then noticed that I no longer get a data connection. I know of someone else who has the same experience (also on the 3 network with an unbranded phone). Has anyone else experienced this or know of a solution?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
I've never had a need to roam until at the job site I've been working for the past few months, so this was never a known issue. When I try to make a call, the phone rings a few times, then transfers to a Verizon recording saying "unable to verify your phone, please hold while we transfer you to a Verizon operator."

Currently running DamageControl v2.09.01, but have tried with several Fresh builds(2.0d-2.33) as well, all with the same result.

As far as the radio goes, I've tried: 2.42.01.04.27(current),2.42.00.03.10, 1.04.01.09.21(1.5 stock radio) and 2.32.40.11.03(Verizon radio)

My PRL is current at 60668, but have had this problem since 60664. And have tried updating my profile multiple times. PRI is 1.70_003. ##786# didn't help either.

Any ideas anyone? Sprint is useless as always, just suggesting to do things I've already dne such as update profile and PRL. My fear is that I will have to run the new RUU and re-root in hopes that it will resolve the issue. Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
Anyone?!??
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dailypush:
Around my work I have had this exact issue.. I listened to the message which gives the tower number and route and called Sprint to report the tower. The rep on the phone took all the information and sent out a tech to the area to track the tower down. You might try the Antenna app. (the one that pinpoints the location of the towers). It has been happening to me for a 2 months. It seems to affect other sprint phones too... if it gets too bad I would find out the tower and see if you can edit your PRL list to exclude it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
Hmm, I've never gotten a message with any tower information. Will try again tonight. I guess maybe I should try to find another area that my phone will roam in and see if the same happens also.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Try going into the Phone Information menu.

In the Dialer, type *#*#INFO#*#*. (INFO = 4636)

Then touch Phone Information.

Scroll down and you should see a line that says "Set preferred network type:" followed by a drop-down menu.

Does it say "CDMA auto (PRL)"? If not, follow these steps:

hit Menu, then tap Select radio band. You'll get a Force Close and that's okay. Let it reload all that stuff, then change the drop-down menu to "CDMA auto (PRL)". Then back out of everything, reboot. Once the phone comes back on, go back into *#*#4636#*#* and into Phone Information to see if that setting sticks. That may fix some of your network and roaming problems.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
@chromium, thanks, but I've checked all that as well, just forgot to mention it in the op.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
Just an update to this, I switched to CM6rc1 which has the option to force roaming, and it doesn't matter where I am I still get the verizon recording. Whats even stranger, it says if this problem persists call #8899. The recording on that number says, "Cingular no longer supports 611 roaming service"
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbv203:
For anyone who cares, I took the plunge, ran the RUU, re-rooted, nandroided back and wah-la...it works now...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
Even though Windows Mobile 6.* is coming to it's end, there still isn't a decent PDF Reader. Adobe Reader LE 2.5 is fast & efficient, but lacks outline & text-only views, and PocketXPdf v0.5.0 is slow as F*&%!! & seems to've lost support eons ago, but has outline and text-only views. So, what I'm requesting, if the devs of this here xda-developers community of ours are willing, is for the development of a PDF Reader that melds the best from the two, leaving behind the gross, and possibly adding support for multi-touch. I think we all need it to be --

# fast & efficient, able to open large .pdf files quickly

# with outline view, so we can browse by chapter, rather than only by page

# & a text-only view for even speedier performance in .pdf files that may be image-heavy, but one only requires the text

# multi-touch zooming (pinch to zoom)

So, here's to hoping at least one dev out there is in the request-taking mood.

::cheers:: \(^_^)/
[Windows Mobile Software Development] x1Albertx1:
I often searched for good pdf-viewers.. we have 600 dollar phones, but they can't handle pdf.. the mobile adobe viewer sucks. Would definitly like a replacement.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
My sentiment, exactly. And, I'm sure devs've gotta feel the same.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zinconnu:
I had the same problem. Try Foxit Reader.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
Tried it, and although it's quite fast, it still lacks outline view, and pinch to zoom would be nice, too.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
::bump::

Just bumping to show my dedication to this thread here. Devs ... we all need your help. Adobe & Foxit've failed us, mainly, because they're lacking outline view & multi-touch. So, a fresh, new app is totally necessary at this point.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
::bump::

Might as well've called this thread Pong, as I see I'll be doing a lot of ::bump:: 'ing for this topic.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kain144000:
Well, I see no devs are interested in this. Does that mean there is already a PDF Reader that...

Opens .pdf files fast & efficiently

has outline view

and, supports multi-touch???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cabello80:
Sorry to start a new thread but I've tried and tried again to follow some of the instructions with no success. :confused:

I have a standard TMOUS HD2 with HSPL but with stock

ROM: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE

Radio: 2.10.50.26

A how to would be nice, I've followed HD Geek's How-To, but I'm unsure if it was meant for TMOUS becuase I've not been able to get passed what looks like a locked screen with backlight on after flashing Android Rom. And when I do softreset, because it freezes at lock screen with backlight, my Sense time will no longer update and my emails disappear. Any help would be appreciatted.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] darkt123:
if sense is giving you problems in winmo after you reboot from android try formatting your sd card. i had the same issue where sense wouldn't load and various other problems and after a quick format everything worked just fine. while it's no requirement to get a custom rom it does help though. stock winmo is just not as good as it could be.

also if you get the screen of death try hitting the rest button on the back of the phone and loading it again, after one or two times of doing this it usually will fix itself.

what flavor of android are you using?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cma1032:
Using hd2 as daily driver

First, you need to use a microsd card that is at least a class 4 or above. You need to format it fat32, full format and not a quick format.

Second, you need to download tarantula's v1.2 Android image

Thirs, get the latest cotulla zImage from http://cotulla.pp.ru/leo/Android/Cotulla_zImage_VOLUME_SR_AUD.rar

Put them all together and you have a fully functioning android phone.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SaintyUK:
DOING THE FOLLOWING INCORRECTLY WILL MOST LIKELY BRICK YOUR PHONE. ONLY DO THIS IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT WITH ADB AND BASIC UNIX COMMANDS

To change the firmware to generic (or in theory to any of the firmware listed in post two -although this has been untested at this time - only generic UK has been tested) follow these instructions:

Follow the instructions here to obtain root. If running "adb devices" at the command prompt lists no devices when the phone is actually connected download the USB drivers from here.

Download the attached build.prop file which is for Generic "Customized UK/Black"

OPTIONAL: Using notepad replace 1238-0199 with any of the values from post two (the CDF number) to change to another variant

Push the edited file to your phone's sdcard: "adb push build.prop /sdcard/build.prop"

Then: "adb shell" and type "su", grant the root access on your phone and then "rm /system/build.prop" and "./busybox cp /sdcard/build.prop /system/"

Lastly use the Sony Ericsson Update Service to install the new firmware

Hope this is useful :D

./busybox cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/

./busybox cp busybox /system/bin/

uninstalled all SE software. Reboot PC. installed PC companion, connect phone as usual and it will notify an update is available. Then viola!! new firmware. i used generic uk from the 1st post. :)

debrand using root explorer

Hi all,

I was thinking the istructions on the first post can it be done with out a pc.

Can u just use root explorer and delete the file and past it with the attached one in the post and set the permission .

Or. Do u have to use a pc connection to the phone
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] adamo86:
Thanks a lot saintyUk and cchaos.

I used sainty attachment on the first post and cchaos instructions and updated it worked.

By they way change the permission to what the original one was also use the pc to update .if you go to phone settings and update it won't work.I first got confused kept on using the phones built in app to update and it never worked.finally downloaded the software from SE site and updated it .

Also I had to re root my phone and install certain apps again not all though.everything of the provider is gone.

I'm very happy.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] royalbloodvi:
after i type rm /system/build.prop it says failed. its read-only file system.. why? i granted permission on the phone too..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SaintyUK:
Try: mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] cchaos:
Hmm, odd. I never had to reinstall any of my app. Guess I was lucky then
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SaintyUK:
I guess you updated firmware from the handset OTA, rather than going the SEUS route :)

OTA = doesn't touch applications, settings etc

SEUS = wipe everything
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] adamo86:
I downloaded the updating app from sonyericsson

Web site.

I had to re root my device because super user was missing and I had to put back the vending apk tatoo version because it got replaced by original also my arabic file for texting got deleted so I had to put that back were it was.

The rest of the apps I installed were still there contacts messages alarm time passwords forn web pages all remained.

Lucky everythimg didn't clear.I mean rootimg took me less then 30sec and arabic font and tatoo vending apk took a few more seconds.

Over all I tink root explorer is a quicker method.its just copy and paste.and reboot.

I think those who having problems with root explorer need to make sure mount dosent change back to R/O because when u go back. To other folders it switches to read only somtimes and also check permission.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Johev:
Sorry for this stupid question, but do I need to have Linux on my PC to be able to debrand it, and flash a different language ROM?

I have read most of the posts in here, so please do not reply with read more. It's that I have never used a Android phone before, and I am still waiting for this one to arrive (just bought it today and still needs to arrive).

That is why when I read all those commands I just get confused. I am a long time WM user with flashing, being a common thing for me.

Thanks for the input.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SaintyUK:
Nope I did it all on Windows.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Johev:
Thank you for your reply. I would like to ask one more question, the phone that I have bought will come with a Spanish Vodafone ROM.

I want to change it to a Portuguese unbranded ROM, as my wife will be using it in Belgium on a different carrier. I am aware I first need to unlock the phone, and that changing the ROM will not allow me to use different SIM cards on it, but as her Spanish is not as good as mine, she would prefer a Portuguese version of the ROM.

On page 1, I have found that you have "U20i VFE-1-8 CDF1238-8839 1239-2170 Vodafone PT/Black" - is this an unbranded ROM, or will it just turn my Xperia X10 mini pro, from Spanish Vodafone to Portuguese Vodafone.

Another thing is, I see many people speaking about Black ROM. Is it some kind of expression that says the ROM is generic, or does it refer to the colour of the theme? Sorry but, still not used to all this android slang :).

Thanks for the help.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ruigui:
Hi Johev. I'm portuguese, but will answer in english, here.

If you use "U20i VFE-1-8 CDF1238-8839 1239-2170 Vodafone PT/Black" you will get portuguese vodafone branded...

I don't have this phone yet, but will buy one very soon.

At the moment, the best to do is to use the generic uk code. I suppose you'll get only english language with that.

I also would like to know the code for portuguese unbranded, but after searching a lot found nothing.

Questions:

1 - after using uk generic, may i change language to portuguese, or is english only?

2 - will i have T9 dictionary in portuguese (even if phone language is english only)? If not, is it possible to add it? Do i have to backup any files in order to get it?
