How this relates do you using things in a VM I'm not going to try to figure out, but you should be able to attach the device in whatever method necessary..

Partition the new card the way you want it, format the ext3, and I suggest formatting the FAT partition in your phone directly. If you need help here you can ask...

Then simply rsync the contents of one to the other.. I'd use your hard drive as the intermediate storage location... Let's say your card is sdc when mounted..

# Created the paths we need to use..

mkdir ~/oldcard ~/oldcard-ext /mnt/sdcard /mnt/sdcard-ext

# old fat files to intermediate storage location

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdcard

rsync -va /mnt/sdcard ~/oldcard/

umount /dev/sdc1

When it's done, poke through ~/oldcard, make sure it appears to all be there, particularly make sure there's no extra layer of subdirectories, ie: if you ls ~/oldcard you see just one directory which contains the rest of the stuff. If so, fix it.

Do the exact same for the ext partition, but make it a different directory of course..

# old ext files into intermediate storage location

mkdir ~/oldcard-ext

mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt/sdcard-ext

rsync -va /mnt/sdcard-ext ~/oldcard-ext

umount /dev/sdc2

To note, you SHOULD already be doing this on a regular basis. Memory cards DO die sometimes.

Then swap cards and reverse..

# move fat files into new card

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdcard

rsync -va ~/oldcard /mnt/sdcard/

umount /dev/sdc1

# move ext cards into new card

mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt/sdcard-ext

rsync -va ~/oldcard-ext /mnt/sdcard-ext

umount /dev/sdc2

I've broken things out into sections to make it more readable, some steps could be combined etc but didn't want to obfuscate anything.
[Nexus One General] paolobacci:
Thanks, it´s the way I thought

I mentioned the linux in the vm because windows can´t read ext partitions

i thought it would be really cool if someone took all the software from the Droid 2 and ported it all to work on the Droid 1. i mean like motoblur and all the blur apps, icons and the lock screen and all and made it work on the original droid? is it possible some one could make this happen?
[Droid 2 General] jdkoreclipse:
Not feasable
[Droid 2 General] bmx24:
dude sory but u have no idea what your talking about just to let you know a milestone dev dexter has ported it and its olny a matter of time till it makes its way over to droid and another dev named jamezelle has got sense 2.2 booting on the droid and i was talking to him and he says it wont be that hard to port it and that he would give it a shot in his spair time :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p lol:D

So I have wiped my phone a few times to install/update different roms. I have used titanium backup, however something happened last time and im not sure why. I upgraded from CM6 test 8 to RC3, and when I did and rebooted, after the sync icon was gone I got a message saying all my apps that I installed through the market were restored, and only those. No data was restored though. I wasnt aware this could happen without actually using a program to do it. I didnt install or launch titanium backup after the wipe. (I wiped data and cache before installing the rom).

Can someone point me to what is doing this?

I used to make my own keyboards to my liking using a generator that made a modded version of HTC_IME for my myTouch. But since I have Android on my HD2 I figured i would try it, instead of a Low Res version, it provided a High Res Version. So i created one on http://www.gimpsta.com/themer/ that works on ALL android roms but looks great on Shu8i's.

Black Android

Cyanogen

On mattc's 1.5b :)

Round Keys

Nexus One

HD2

Droid

After installing HTC_IME keyboard apk, do this:

1. In "SETTINGS" under "LANGUAGE & keyboard" enable "HTC_IME mod" by checking the box.

2. Exit and go to your "Messages" and open a "NEW MESSAGE".

3. The "TO:" should have the flashing cursor...press and hold until "Edit text" window appears.

4. Tap "INPUT method"

5. Select "HTC_IME mod"

With htc_ime you can use volume keys to move inside the text.Go into htc_ime mod user interface--->volume keys.I am using mattc 1.5b.Ι prefer this instead of the arrows in the bottom of keyboard,because in this case the buttons are smaller and more difficult for me to write.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dragion:
Got this working!

waichai, this is what I did...following these steps might enable this to work for you too.

After installing HTC_IME keyboard apk, do this:

1. In "SETTINGS" under "LANGUAGE & keyboard" enable "HTC_IME mod" by checking the box.

2. Exit and go to your "Messages" and open a "NEW MESSAGE".

3. The "TO:" should have the flashing cursor...press and hold until "Edit text" window appears.

4. Tap "INPUT method"

5. Select "HTC_IME mod"

The keyboard should now be available to you!

This was the method and steps I did.

I hope this helps.

To quickly answer your question

1. No, it would just replace the keyboards skin and keep the settings

2.It wont be a problem, but to be safe i would uninstall first before installing a different one.

What i do is save the apks in a special folder for an Example "HTC Keyboard"

to keep track of which keyboard i want to use :)

Hi,

I am about to visit New York and was wondering whether I can use my VF Touch Pro 2. It is unlocked for international use. However I am not totaly sure that its frequency is right for the US. Perhaps it can be used over GPRS and not 3G?

Also the prices are pretty hefty... £1.35 per minute and £3/MB for first 5MB and then £15 per 5MB.

Some good advice on the above would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam

In US, you will roam on the AT&T network and the 3G frequencies are 850/1900. Your phone has 900/1800/2100 3g frequencies, so no, it will not see 3G speeds. You can, however, expect to get EDGE service, but that will be prox 100KBS speeds, so double dial up speeds, but much slower than 3G. OK for email, but web is dog slow. NY has poor 3G service, in general, due to heavy users and lot's of people.

If you need data, better to find wifi hotspot and use that.

Welcome to America, and the incompatible world of roaming with 3G.
