I think the HD2 gets that score because, as I can see in the video, the CPU tests run faster compared to my SGS, probably because of Froyo, and I know, from the time I had the Diamond and the HD2, that the internal memory and RAM are very fast. Sadly SGS has a slow internal memory, atleast when used by the phone`s software, when copying from PC is faster than my class 6 microSD. Luckily, we have mimocan`s fix. Hope this will be fixed in future FW`s.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] zelendel:
The HD 2 is a better fit for quadrent then the sgs as quadrent was made for the snapdragon processor which the hd2 has and the sgs does not. Comparing apples to orenges in an apple juice contest doesn't really prove much. Use real life feel. If you care about the scores a rom can be made to get you over 3000 quad score but is laggy as hell. Don't believe me? Look at my sig
[Galaxy S I9000 General] omad0:
interesting... I was using quadrant to see how a stock xxjvo and gingerreal compared. Surely that would indicate a real speed difference and not just be some kind of "hack" ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] filou75:
That's right.

HD2 uses two android OS :

- Cyanogenmod, that is faster than our samsung os..

- Nexus one's port to HD2, greatly optimized by google...

It's really fast. I upgraded my father's HD2 last month, replacing windows in the NAND with CM7. It really makes a big change, the phone is like brand new ^^

Quadrant is pretty flawed. And I say that being someone who had a phone (before modifications) that was mid-range in Quadrant (Galaxy S), and having a phone that's right top of the heap (Galaxy S II)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gsw5700:
I actually think quadrant or any benchmark is useful but only for comparisons on your own phone.ie useful to checkout changes etc.eg my phone felt slightly laggy after upgrade, quadrant revealed score of 1700, turned out I was using conservative governor, set it to ondemand and was very fast again, score returned to 2300. So, can be useful

ATT ships at least some of their Windows Mobile phones with a pre-populated contact list to a bunch of their services.

It is probably pim.vol which is not in the pda.bin, but is found in the root of the storage system after startup.

The goal is to have a blank contact list after hard reset or burning.

Is this something that can be accomplished in one of the control files during cooking or is it possibly a case of overwriting a default pim.vol that is copied from the extended rom during hard reset? The data does not appear to be in any of the *.rgu, *.xml, initflashfiles.dat, *.provxml files.

This is the last trace of ATT customisation in the current custom rom and it would be nice to get rid of it.
[Windows Mobile] rgb-rgb:
AT&T stores them in the file default_contacts.xml

I don't remember which OEM folder it is in, but you should be able to find it. I just create a blank file with the same name and store it in my personal EXT folder. That way it overwrite the AT&T file.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
Thanks for your quick reply.

There is no file named default_contacts.xml in the dump here.

The dump is of the pda.bin only because that is all that is available for that version in vanilla factory form.

When you say "OEM folder" is that in some other area of the rom?
[Windows Mobile] rgb-rgb:
Are you cooking a ROM or what exactly are you trying to do?

In the kitchen, the file is in the OEM\<Device Name>\OEM\409\OperatorPkg folder.

If you can't see the file in your kitchen, make sure you have your file explorer set to show all hidden files as well.

I can assure you that the file is there in my kitchen and I just dumped it from the new Tlit2 ROM. Was also there in the original stock ROM for the Tilt2
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
I'm cooking a pda.bin which is loaded using USDL Grandprix.

The source is a dump from a Samsung Epix device, not the update file.

This is because it is an Omnia kitchen which does not seem to know everything about the file structure, but is able to cope with the pda.bin in both directions when supplied with an OS.NB from a rom dump.

Exploder is showing all files with hidden and system attributes. attrib.exe was also used to double check for the existence of the file in the entire tree.

There is no OEM directory.

If the OEM directory actually represents another partition on the flash, then which one?
[Windows Mobile] DJGonzo:
All WinMo devices are similar. Find where all the pplication packages are (EXT) and there shoud be one with all the AT&T customization.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
Well of course they are. They all start with the same code base from Microsoft.

The point of the question is to find out whether the files are in a partiition that the software has not managed to dump.
[Windows Mobile] indagroove:
Post your stock rom and/or dump please.
[Windows Mobile] DJGonzo:
Post a dump then buddy. :p
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
What you should do is just look in the \windows folder (you can flash the rom, right?) and then just copy out all of the provxml's and xml's. Look through them, and you'll probably find the one that's buggering up pim.vol. My guess is that it will have a name suggestive of its purpose.

If you have mortscript, then you can just do it automatically with this script:

XCopy("\Windows\*.provxml","\Temp\",TRUE,TRUE)
XCopy("\Windows\*.xml","\Temp\",TRUE,TRUE)

They'll end up in the temp folder; you can copy them to a pc and then open all of them up and search for the contact names.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
Yes, flashed it 20+ times yesterday while debugging :D

The latest is that there are a couple of mxip*.xml files that appear in the root of the pda storage area. The content has not been looked at yet because it was discovered at the end of the session. But, one of them is mxip_initdb.xml. As you said, "highly suggestive". These files are not part of the dump. So, they must be getting copied or written by a process instead of being static.

update

actually, they are in the dump, just not *.xml, they are *.vol.

binary format, so I guess I'll have to troll around in there using a hex editor.

/update

The device already has a tricky piece of code. It runs a process on cold restarts that rewrites imei* files. The trick is to disable the process. Then, modified imei* files will work properly without being overwritten.

There are also some registry entries that cannot be touched on a flash/restart because there are insufficent permissions at the time. Entries that are known to work after reg unlocking will fail to work at that stage. Touching any one of the restricted entries with a mxip* file will fail everything in the whole file.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
And what would you look for in the dump?
[Windows Mobile] indagroove:
The stuff you've missed.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
wouldn't it be more productive to at least describe what area to look in?
[Windows Mobile] indagroove:
You are saying that your stock device rom is different than most. Other chefs have already described what to look for. You have been offered help to look through the rom and the dump, but you seem to be declining the offers, so never mind.
[Windows Mobile] plumsauce:
I have said that there are differences between devices. That would hardly be surprising. When someone says look for file "x" and it is not there, that would be a difference. It is then fair game to ask if whether it might be stored in one of the other partitions which has not been dumped.

If someone has said that they have checked from the root of the dump and double checked using a second tool, then that assertion is likely valid.

If you have no specific file or files to look for, then so be it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isauser:
Hello,

I have a HTC HD2 leo, bought from Cyprus without any contract. I think it is the T8585 version.. I am just wondering which is the latest version of the official HTC ROM? Could anyone provide a link?

I have searched the forum and i have found the official roms(1.48, 1.66 etc) but I have also seen in youtube about the 2.01 version. This is very confusing.

Also would it be wise to change from the Greek RUU_rom to a different one? Should I run the HSPL 2 or HSPL 3 first in order to update?

Thanks

ps. just want to get the best out of my device :cool:

I tried to open video also withe Opera mini. Opera can't play it, but game me option to download it as MP4. After downloading it and try to play, she same issue - "can't play video". I tried on few videos, but the same result. I have unrooted Desire with no branding, EU.

So, I signed up for AppInventor on the day it was announced and I finally got the invite 4 days ago (I didn't even know! Haha) Anyway, I decided to mess around. This app was thrown together in 10 minutes. I don't have any coding experience. I just recorded a bunch of high pitched sounds trying to say "totally gangsta" things. The fact that I could even throw THIS together gives me hope that creative people everywhere will create real apps.

If you could just download the APK and try it out, you can see a really basic app that demonstrates the functionality of AppInventor. Oh, and once again- that isn't my normal voice. LoL.

[HD Mini General] alanboo:
i found that autoration in my hd mini is off by default..

in the music tab i can get all the options if i can t use it in landscape!

after hours of research i found in the registry that the key "fullscreenmode" (or something like) is OFF by default.

trying to enabling this manually (by adding some other registry key for the g-sensor) causes problems: i don't know the audiomanager class name so i can't configure correctly

i got the latest ORIGINAL ROM.

What to do?

AND after that a question... is the manila music player usable with a big library?

In portrait mode, opening "catalogue" i found NO WAY to listen an entire album !!

thx
[HD Mini General] Timo Schmidt:
Hi there,

unfortunatelly the Sense (Manila?) Music-Player isn't very functional - I would say it's almost unusable because of the following restrictions:

- There is no search-function.

- You can't even fastscroll through tracks if you search for a special track because you can't drag the tiny slider which is on the right side. Even my old N97 mini let me fastscroll through my music-library (the N97 also showed the letters while dragging the fastscroll-slider). As I know - the HD 2 has this slider - but only in landscape-mode which isn't available on the HD Mini.

- After selecting and playing a track from the library (in which you have to manually select which can be a pain if the track begins with "Z" and you have over 2000 tracks - due to the lack of a fastscroll / search option) you have to manually select further tracks again because after returning from the Music-Player to the library - the library shows the first track in the alphabet and not the last played.

- Shuffle mode isn't saved - after turning off and turning on the phone you have to manually disable shuffle and enable it (the shuffle icon is there but shuffle isn't enabled) to get it working again.

- Sometimes (6-8 min after the screen went black) the player interrupts playback 3-5 sec and continues after this time. I think this has something to do with the energy-saving methods of the HD mini. This behaviour occurs only once after the screen has gone off - when you unlock the phone to select another track for example the behaviour re-occurs again after the screen has gone off.

Greetings

Timo
[HD Mini General] alanboo:
thx for the fast reply

i think the method of use of the cover flow is to browse and play an album or a track, or play shuffle the whole library.

So for me doesn't matter the search function...

but.. why i can't get it to work in landscape mode?!

Hello Fellow Androids!

If this is off topic, please accept my apologies. I am searching through all of XDA for a simple solution to adding apk. Now before you start bashing, please keep in mind that I am well aware of the "search" options + google + XDA etc.

Long story short, I have:

1) Rooted

2) Fashed many Roms (currently on Stock 2.1)

3) Lag Fixxed (see signature)

4) Removed Bloatware

5) I am familiar with ABD and commands

Problem:

All I'm trying to do is install certain "apk"s using ADB. I am well aware of the Program that installs/ pushes apps automatically that are found in G1 + Vibrant + HTC + Droid Forums without having to do any typin......BUT.....I would like to know my way around ABD <----Main reason why i dont want the easy way out.

I have tried methods found here:

As well as:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719

The problem I am having is:

Whether i navigate to my folder (desktop with all my apps) and use either

"adb push app /system/sd/app

adb push app-private /system/sd/app-private"

or simply

"adb install <path to file> - Example: adb install c:/apps/apps2sd.apk"

I always get the error: "cant find <whatever apk> to install"

No matter which directory i have it, i get that message.

Note:

1) I have debugging on

2) I mounted sd <----also tried Without mounting

3) I have used the same command when I removed bloatware but i understand Adding apks are slightly different.

4) I have all the drivers installed + Microsoft's .net framework + etc

What am i doing wrong?

Hi to spartan062984

Couple of suggestions which I found to work.

Copy adb.exe to \windows\system32.--- this will give you a global adb which works from any directory.

Make a folder 'APK' ( or what you wish ) and put your apk's into it.

In DOS cd to APK and then run your install e.g. adb install xyz.apk \app

Hope it works for you
