[General Questions and Answers] stefanjadex:
On my HTC Touch HD I have a very strange problem.

On the IMAP account, I can see when a message has attachments.

If they are „jpg” file type, after I mark and download them, the attachments have zero size (0 b).

Also, it happened (after mark & download) to show me that an „jpg” attachment has 2MB, then saved it on the main memory (or even SD card). When I checked, the size was also zero (0 b).

Other attachments (e.g. ZIP, CAB, etc) are OK, I can download and open / save them.

My system details:

OS:	Windows Mobile 6.1 (5.2.21046)

Manila:	Sense 2.5.20153712.0

ROM:	Kenia BlackNew V WWE

Radio:	1.13.25.24

Protocol:	52.62.25.34U

Can anybody help to solve this situation?

Regards,

Stefan

So i was thinking if your like me, and like to know what each rom looks like etc. i think some of us should try to flash as many roms as possible and make videos of each one... maybe update them here and there when newer/bigger updates come out... but it seems to me that sometimes pictures arent enough... maybe a 5min video would suffice. just an idea tho :P

who would like to pitch in? i think ill be starting with theboss rom and damagecontrol roms
[Desire General] ChemicalKicks:
I haven't had experience of other Android phones so I don't know if this is limited to the Desire only.

Why can't I set a wallpaper full screen without selecting an area, usually your lovely pictures end up warped. It's very annoying.

Most other phones let you select full

Screen when setting up a wallpaper.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
This is not Desire specific, the thing you hv mentioned is possible only with some 3rd party launchers I think. Size of the image on other devices using static wallpapers on this resolution is 800x480 as well, but with android it must be 800x960 (so it covers all 7 homescreens)
[Desire General] DonClemento:
if you scroll trough your seven screens, you can see that the background will slightly scroll too. that's why the background has to be bigger than one screen (800 x 480px on the desire).

if you select a pictures, wich doesn't has the rights dimensions, your pic would be distorted. So the area, which you have to choose, is exactly the dimensions for the background. the background has to be proportional, so thats why you have this area, which you can scale up and down, but always proportional...

i hope i could explain it..
[Desire General] sbdags:
Indeed - you are dragging the corners of the box to scale up to the full desired size aren't you?
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Correction.. pic size must be 800x960 (twice as wide than 800x480). 800x480 px is screen size/resolution of Desire. To make sure wallpapers cover 7 homescreens entirely, you should align your image to this dimension by selecting desired area and the size as well, here the system assists user by keeping aspect ratio based on the 800x960 standard.
[Desire General] DonClemento:
yes i know, i wrote the screensize of the desire, not the wallpaper size ("has to be bigger than one screen (800 x 480px on the desire)") i wrote the size of "one screen" ;)

thanks anyway
[Droid Incredible General] gospeed.racer:
So, coming from a string of G1's and a Nexus, I cannot stand SenseUi. At ALL. I can live with the widgets and launcher- they are actually tolerable- what I cant accept are the keyboard, the way contacts are brought up, the lack of cut/paste in several areas, and all the frilly crud that goes along with it. I seek a TRUE vanilla rom, based on Android components not HTC. People constantly recommend using advanced launcher or one similar, but these are just launchers- they dont change the stuff back to stock that I seek. So my question is, can there ever be a REAL vanilla rom that has none of the Sense components? Is it possible to de-theme these areas in similar fashion to how the current de-sensing works, or would it require that HTC releases a vanilla version (which they never will). I guess I am asking, am I fighting a loosing battle?
[Droid Incredible General] adrynalyne:
You are coming from an N1 and asking this question?

Really?

Cyanogenmod ring a bell?

;)
[Droid Incredible General] crazifyngers:
i was in the same boat as you. i am on cyanogen now, however there are a few issues with this port. on the nexus i didn't ever have any issues with cm6 but on the incredible you have to install another kernel after you install cm6 so that the camera will work, the camcorder just doesn't work yet, and when i have wifi on i get a reboot about once a day. i live with it because like you i hate sense ui but i wish they would have released a n1 for verizon. they did just release the source code for 2.6.32 which is froyo today, so the code shoulod be added into the nightlies of cm6 shortly.
[Droid Incredible General] DeeBG:
It's been said that the latest radio fixes many (if not all) of those problems in Cyanogen on DInc. I can't attest to this being true or not, but some people were talking about it last night in the "Unrevoked - Forever" thread in the dev section.
[Droid Incredible General] gospeed.racer:
cool! so there is hope. I figured the CM rom would be truly vanilla, but since it had so many little oddities I haven't given it a go yet. Good to know there is the possibility. Thanks guys:D
[Droid Incredible General] kentoe:
The new .32 kernel source that was just released will also allow koush to finish CM6 for the incredible. Basically now that this new kernel is out the bluetooth stack and everything else including the camcorder not working in CM6 will all work once implemented.

Even though the bluetooth works perfect in CM6 unlike normal senseui roms. /letting out BT steam

I wonder when this will be ready?
[XPERIA X10 General] cybrid3:
Hi guys

wondering if someone can help me with an issue im having regarding mobile data useage. I am in the UK and I live in an area where 3g is non existant so I have switched to GSM only in the settings. My problem is my phone is constantly using data and I dont know why or how to stop it.

I downloaded an app to show mobile useage, calls, text, data etc

My provider charges me £4 per 1 Mb (this is 1024kb yeah?)

Well I then went into the settings and edited the providers auto settings to stop it from connecting, and left my wi fi on. When I went to bed, my data was showing 0.24Mb, when I woke up this morning it was showing 1.23Mb (with a cost of over £4)

What is causing this? Far as I can tell I have manually stopped the phone from connecting but something is using data. I have the Gmail sync option enabled (but wi fi was on) but still, it went up 1 Mb whilst I slept.

Can someone help me out with this issue please as its starting to confuse me
[XPERIA X10 General] beno1:
As far as I know, push email doesn't work over wifi. So if you have google syncing enabled, it keeps a small mobile connection open at all times over which email notifications are sent.

I'm not an IT guy, so I might be wrong :D But just try to disable syncing and see what happens!
[XPERIA X10 General] ardf69:
I opened the thread "strange bug" related to this. In my case it uses more 3g band only if it's attached to the pc via usb. When I must attach the X10 to the pc I disable the apn with apndroid.

Ciao Angelo
[XPERIA X10 General] cybrid3:
gmail does work on wifi as far as I can tell. However, I have now gone further into the internet settings and wiped all of the data and the phone now cannot connect. Now this will save me a bundle of cash, but also means that I cant get my internet connection when away from wifi. The APN apps looked good but a lot say dont work with CDMA networks, which I can only assume im on as the apps do nothing
[XPERIA X10 General] ardf69:
I use WiFi too. But when X10 is attached to the pc it continues to use 3g band even if in the notification bar the WiFi icon appears.

Ciao Angelo
[XPERIA X10 General] cybrid3:
well I didnt know that.

I can confirm that Gmail sync DOES work over wi-fi as I have completely deleted the phones internet settings now and am still getting my email.

So this means I will no longer be getting charged for data useage, but cant get internet other than wi fi :(
[XPERIA X10 General] loggy:
cybrid3, you didnt need to wipe the apn/internet settings, there is a simple tick box in /wireless controls /mobile networks/ MMS and data <<, unticking this will stop the phone from using any mobile data (sms/texting still works).

Turning off 3g doesnt make any difference as the phone still uses data over gprs or gsm.

These phones are real data hogs and its best to get a cheap plan if you can.
[XPERIA X10 General] cybrid3:
yeah, but if I disabled it all, then I would not longer have MMS and that is something I do use
[XPERIA X10 General] tuxStyle:
Ask your provider to:

1. block data

or

2. give you APN settings for MMS only.
[XPERIA X10 General] k0sun7eash3d:
Theres also the possibility that wifi is set to disable itself after the phone goes to sleep.

I left my wifi settings on and let the phone sleep. Based on testing through the wifi active time on spare parts, the phone accessed data through the carrier.
[XPERIA X10 General] jojo1212:
ask your provider for wap access not data

its very cheap

this way u can send and get mms
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Why don't you get a plan that includes unlimited data? Only cost me £5 a month extra for that on uk vodafone.. Well worth it.
[XPERIA X10 General] cybrid3:
I have unlimited data, but they say I have gone over my fair use policy so something has been in the background. It used 1 MB whilst I slept. The plans with fair use of 1GB seem pretty useless now
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
I wonder if there is anyone that tried to use any type of VPN over recent android builds for HD2?

Actually the problem resides in a missing kernel module "tun.ko".

I have tried to get the file from the internet to the same kernel and load it using "modprobe tun" or "insmod tun.ko" command but it is always giving me the same error: "modprobe: 'tun.ko' : invalid module format.

If anyone has a working module, that will be great.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcordes:
I will update the kernel to include tunneling :)

EDIT:

http://git.linuxtogo.org/?p=groups/...it;h=17b1cb194c76267cae097241aea7a9f47ced7283

done.

tun.ko is present in all module autobuilds from today on.

check http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=719646#2 for the official GIT autobuilds

please let me know if it works for you

thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Downy:
Thank you very much, with this module it should then be possible to have openvpn functionality.

Update: Ok, I am now using latest kernel with tun support.

With this kernel I am able to load the module tun.ko with insmod.

There are no errors and lsmod shows me the module as active.

Where to put an entry to load this module by default on boot?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
I have tried the latest kernel build, on SHUBCRAFT CM6 froyo build, the module is loaded successfully and the device /dev/tun is also created successfully.

Thanks a lot.

Anyway I couldn't try the VPN functionality since the Wireless/3G didn't work after kernel upgrade! although I have successfully loaded the wireless modules.

--------

BTW, it didn't work with mattc Leo android build.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Downy:
After some time of trying my openvpn is running very well with the new kernel and tun module. Thanks once again.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
What Andriod build are you using?

Can you please tell us how did you manage to run the WIFI on the new kernel?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shu8i:
try 1.3. VPN is enabled - not tested.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Downy:
I am running mattec release version 1.5 with the most current kernel (zImage) and the most current modules bcm4329.ko and tun.ko extracted from http://oe.netripper.com/files/htcleo_autobuild/modules-htcleo-latest.tgz.

For wifi it is very important to always use the correct bcm4329.ko according to your currently used zImage file.

So when I update a new kernel I also always download the newest modules and extract bcm4329.ko.

To get wifi working, I have extracted the bcm4329.ko out of the modules-htcleo-latest.tgz file and then used adb (I am using ADB Magic GUI to make things easier) to push the file to /system/lib/modules. Changed permissions at the end.

So

step 1:

I boot to wimo and replace zImage in my android folder.

step 2: boot back to android and connect via adb

step 3: extract bcm4329.ko out of modules-htcleo-latest.tgz

step 4: using adb I push this bcm4329.ko file to /system/lib/modules (command: adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules)

step 5: last but not least I change permissions, but dunno know if its really neccessary. (command: adb shell chmod 777 /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko)

Thats it. And thats what I am always doing when I am using a new zImage.

If you have further questions, just ask!

Currently I am running the latest kernel from today, 08/13/10 without any wifi or openvpn problems.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
Unfortunatly the kernel module "tun" was not included with the 1.3!

Anyway I have managed now to run the new kernel and the tun module with 1.3.

And OpenVPN and wireless are now working fine.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shu8i:
vpn module is in first post ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
Oooops :eek:

I need a glasses for my eyes :D

I have tried the ROM and the module and everything was running smoothly.

Thank you all very much

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smurfgod:
I've been reading mixed things about swap space. Is it required and if so..why? What does it do?

I'm running Cannon202 and really like it but it's 2.1.2 and I'd like to go up to 2.2 but am very pleased with the rom. I got my SD card partitioned and used the defaults in recovery...Are those fine..I'm using the..crap..its 1.7 something.

Also, I've had troubles with the UI crashing in the 2.2 version6 build of the....the one with a C..the long name one..sorry for not remembering names but I'm on my phone.

Anyway..any suggestions?

Sent from my G1 from the only app on my main homescreen.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitman3x:
its same concept as pagefile on windows...giving more avaialble ram..at the cost of slower performance (time taken to write to sd card is slower)

and possibly less battery life
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Say no to swap, kids!

It just isn't worth it, especially if you're using a ROM with the *shudder* CM kernel, which will slow your phone to a crawl. CompCache is a much better option.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kukkerke:
I have been using X10 mini pro since the past 3 weeks.

After a few days of discharging cycles, I see a improvement in battery performance. I've already read about the tips section on battery improvement.

I manage to get about 11-12 hours of standby with wi-fi/bluetooth/background data off (No Music, no videos, screen off 90% of time). Screen timeout is set to 30 secs.

I have not installed any other software apart from Helix launcher & Advanced Task Killer.

I observed that when the cellphone is left in Airplane mode for over 10 hours, battery depletes by just 1-2 %.

However, if I leave the cellphone in GSM only mode, the battery loses from 100% to 10% in just about 9 hours with display set to lowest brightness

The signal strength is always between -57dbm to -90 dbm in my area.

I'm not able to understand what is eating up the battery.

Initially I suspected that I'm not on the latest firmware which could be using a lot of battery on cell standby. But I see that the build number is 1.1.A.0.8

Anyone thinks that this could be a GSM service provider issue?

When is the next firmware update coming?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] 0verkilled:
That is true, I have experienced this. It is not the Service Provider issue, it is something related to signal reception. If you are on call for 1 Hr battery, drains by 20-30%, this is too much.

The worst part is short duration calls, everytime you call some one, battery reduces by 1-5%. To make matter even worse, you cannot replace the battery :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] palatkik:
I cannot get the Garmin XT activator that came with HTC phone (Asian) to work, says not internet access, but the internet is ok. This problem started since ROM upgrade 6.1 to 6.5, before activator was ok when ran last yr. Any similar experiences or ideas please?
[Captivate General] PuffinNugz:
Earlier I had applied the one click lag fix and the phone was running great. After a reboot, none of the apps or widgets will connect to the internet, wifi or 3g. It says I am connected, the little wireless or 3g icons are visible in the notification bar, but nothing works. It worked after the lag fix and i got my inflated quadrant score, but once I rebooted, it didn't work after that. Sometimes it says Mobile Network State Disconnected, sometimes it says Connected. It won't work either way.

What to do? Any help would be appreciated.

edit: i'm a dumbass. that is all. it works now.

Yeah. They are referring to other HTC devices. I believe it's based an an HBOOT exploit, which is HTC specific. So yes, it is completely useless for the X unfortunately :(

is there any way to set up your own custom Ringtones ??
[Dash 3G, Snap General] cubbieblue123:
makeownringtone.com
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Jalom:
Yo !

Any MP3 file will do as a ringtone ; if you want them to appear in the ringtone list into the phone options, just cooy them in the "My ringtone" Folder, in "My Documents".

To cut my MP3 into smaller files, I use audacity, it's freeware.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] AquiEsta!:
Use any 'wave-like editor' to chop down your mp3 of choice to a 30 second sample and then use Activesync to move the mp3 file over to your HTC phone. There is no point in saving the file in anything other than between 128 to 160kbps because you won't hear the difference but it will take up system space.

Look on your mobile device under \windows\ringtones when in the ActiveSync program on your PC under the 'Explore button' and drop the edited files there so you can find them when you select the menu to choose which ringtone you wish to assign to contacts or main incoming as well as sound alerts on your mobile device.

Is there any way to directional cursors on the virtual keyboard
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bingobadgo:
Has anybody worked out how to remove the language bar which pops up when texting yet? If I have the sudden urge to switch to Catalan half way through a text I will do it long-hand, that bar takes up too much of the already small screen!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] meegs:
Could you post a photo of what you mean,cost I don't get any language bar come up
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bingobadgo:
I cant post a pic of it at the moment, but let me try to explain it better. When i go to enter text using the hardware keyboard a blue bar appears at the bottom of the screen (taking up approx 1/5 of the screen) with "Eng" on the left and an icon to show the status of the Caps lock on the right, along with a close button. This annoys the hell out of me as often when filling in passwords etc it covers up the "Ok" button.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] l00k:
Only way I found on mini pro is

Settings - Locale & Text

Uncheck the default input tick box

This works well on mini pro but stops you using virtual keyboard
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thephoenixrising:
Is a good intermediate solution but someone knows a way to get rid of this bar without losing the virtual keyboard?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] beny6:
It's build in built-in keyboard and I think it could not be removed (not easily without root hacks). The half-solution without root is to use another software keyboard.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bazalicious:
Yeah installing third party keyboard software gets rid of the blue language bar.

I'm using SlideIt Keyboard which changes the virtual keyboard to a funky Swype-like keyboard but removes the language bar when using the hardware keyboard.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
Can anyone recomend a decent keyboard replacement.

Also, i've asked this before (didn't get much of a reposnse) but is there a way to get spell check with the hardware keyboard?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Mol:
I use AnySoftKeyboard, which is free and provides a reasonably good keyboard for when I don't want to open the hardware keyboard.

Currently there doesn't appear to be one.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bingobadgo:
I have ended up installing AnySoft keyboard too. Its ok, but removes the function where you could long-press a key to access the blue alternate option on it. It has removed the language bar though so its good enough for me!
