Well, on stock, there's an option for "Max message size", I have it set to 2 mb, and no matter what the file size i it compresses them doewn to like 30-60 kb.

This **** is pathetic.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qendadar:
Does it say sent message size? Or sent mms size? If not that may be for max size for received messages. Handcent it says sent messages, mms size.

Sent using the HTC EVO telepathy app...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJDuckett:
Just a generic msg size. I'll get hamdcent though bc this mms legitimately pisses me off
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathBySnuggles:
As far as I know the max message size is for for total message size with all elements. I don't think you can change the way it compresses images. Handcent does not compress as much as the native app which is why I use Handcent. An 8mp image (1.3mb) gets compressed to around 300k in handcent, 60k in native messaging.

I have not confirmed that this works so do a nand backup before you try.

This is for 2.1 but it may be similar.

(Sorry for the bad pun.)

Just came across this:

http://www.tellme.com/you

Sounds interesting. If one already has Microsoft's mobile Bing app, and Voice Command 1.6, does TellMe add some additional functionality?

I was curious to try it out, but find no download link. If one clicks the link "Get Tellme" on that page, it just brings one back to that same page.

Anyone know where to download it?

Microsoft has been doing some interesting stuff with voice recognition. Unfortunate that they shelved "Recite".

Hi,

great site........

I'm trying to get my 2.1 software upgraded HTC hero back to 2.0. My phone worked great with my in car blue tooth system before the stoopid 2.1 update and I just need it working again.

please help...

Thanks guys........

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorbisloth:
There is no 2.0. It's either the original 1.5 or the current 2.1. You can root your device and install a custom ROM of whatever you can find here if you choose. There is a really nice version of 2.2 in the Dev section if you want to go that way. If you do some searching you'll find all the info you need to accomplish this.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasontamu:
hummm? it must have had the 1.5 then prior..........

I wonder if the 2.2 would fix my issue.....

let me see if i can find the threads your talking about...

Thank you,

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aven_soulgazer:
2.2 has a rc1 and nightly builds. May or may not work with your Bluetooth better, it does not have sense. I prefer that, its quick and zippy.

Otherwise I'd suggest trying the custom 2.1 roms and if they don't work and you want to go back to 1.5 I highly suggest digging up an old custom 1.5 rom rather than go stock.

You might even get some help figuring out how to get the drivers from 1.5 into a custom 2.1 or maybe 2.2 if you're patient.

Do 2.2 ROMs use the same bluetooth stack?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aven_soulgazer:
Not positive but worth a try. If 1.5 stack worked I thought maybe it could be merged or swapped into a 2.1 if he wanted to do the work. I could be wrong
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
2.1 bluetooth drivers were pretty broken. I highly recommend trying 2.2, as it is much improved

Loading the xml files to Tasker

I am a new just a few weeks into Tasker and I see all of these great xml files people have created, however, I do not know how to execute them once I have loaded them into my tasker directory in my phone. I have created a few simple things and I am reading some articles called Pocketables and other things about Tasker. But I have seen all this xml files that are already built and "ready to go" but I can not load and execute them in Tasker and can not find any material where it defines "how to."

I have tried various ways unsuccessfully and if some gentle soul would like to give me a hand I would appreciate it. It would appear you would create a Task and select a category, then file, but this is where I am really hung up at this point. I have tried various different ways and so far nothing works.

My friend is unrooting to get a refurb due to a bad speaker. I know titanium works well, but a nandroid will be easier. Are there any consirns with restoring a nandroid backup on a different device?
[Droid Incredible General] najaboy:
Shouldn't be an issue unless the other phone is repaired and given out as an FRU. Then the new phone could possibly get pushed some unwanted apps at one point or another.

http://androidforums.com/all-things...05-warning-do-not-share-nandroid-backups.html
[Droid Incredible General] 4x4le:
Ok thanks, ill let him know. Probably will tell him to just be content with titanium.
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
Nope

As I noted in a different thread, while I do not intend to get into a debate about facts (facts are facts), the above is false.

I am on Incredible # 3. Each time I have nandroid restored on my new device. Each time I did so, I got a ton of FORCE CLOSES from Mobile Defender, which had to be uninstalled and reinstalled. Why? BECAUSE THE DEVICE ID WAS DIFFERENT.

If i log into Mobile Defender now, I see all 3 of my Incredibles all 3 with different device ID. Please understand, that's 3 phones, all of which used the same Nandroid, and all showing DIFFERENT Device IDs.
[Droid Incredible General] Kipphh:
Well said good Sir!
[Droid Incredible General] najaboy:
Just seeking some clarification here and not trying to be argumentative... Are you saying that adrynalyne is mistaken or that I have misinterpreted his post?
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
?

I am saying neither ... I am saying that I have used the same nandroid backup on 2 subsequent phones, and if that post was correct, then I would not have had 3 different Mobile ID's show up on Mobile Defender. But I do. The Device ID did not get overwritten by Nandroid.
[Droid Incredible General] adrynalyne:
LOL,

Yeah here's the thing. Device ID and Android_ID are not the same.

YES, a nandroid WILL overwrite the Android_ID of devices and can cause security issues. Its like cloning a mac address.

Point in case, appbrain fast web installer uses it to identify devices. I know this, because I tested it, and CONFIRMED it with the devs.

Najaboy is correct.

I and another forum member were sending each other apps via our own accounts on app brain.

Any other app that uses the same method of identifying devices in the cloud also pose this same problem.

Moral of the story:

Be smart and don't use the same Nandroid on another phone unless you know how to erase cloned Android_IDs.

Seems like they have turned on 4G in certain areas for good. But I've been really looking at 4G coverage with the app you mentioned and i dont know how, but seems like they handpicked the areas where they want 4G coverage. because if you zoom in to street level in the map, you can actually see exactly where coverage begins and where it ends...ive tested this where i work at (107th and 3rd ave) and there is only 4g in 3rd ave. once you start walking towards lex or 2nd, you loose it completely...its not like you go from 3 bars to 2 bars to 1 bar...you go from 2 bars to zip with 5 steps out of line..crazy
[EVO 4G General] Jayr00:
It's not so much that certain areas were picked while others weren't... wimax (4g) has less range than a cell tower. Especially in regards to building penetration. Even if Sprint added wimax antennas to every existing cell tower, the coverage still wouldn't be as good.
