There's 226.05 MB of RAM used for Storage and 187.07 MB RAM used for Programs. ANYTHING within either CAN be deleted to free up space. Some badly decided removals (most) will cripple Windows, some sit taking up huge amounts of RAM. Games and music preloaded in particular.

Removing anything via Crudscraper (nothing vital) IS GONE. Watch the Storage RAM available increases to validate.

ONLY a hard reset will make Crudscraped items reappear. Otherwise they ARE erased from current OS.

Use freeware Treesize to breakout every RAM MB into tree-view directory. The "bloat" IS in user's control done carefully or just auto-magically running Crudscraper.

ROM is NOT same as RAM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
If you know this, then why are you so wrong about everything else? Nothing in ROM can be deleted manually. It may disappear (as in the case of Manila mods that overwrite files, for instance), but it isn't actually deleted. The OS and some of the carrier addons are in ROM. Crud Scraper does not delete anything in ROM. All it does is delete the shortcuts (*.lnk files) and any parts of the program that are in Storage Memory, but the parts that are in ROM remain taking up space. The only way to remove something from ROM is to install a custom ROM that has had those items removed. Much of the stuff users want to get rid of, like the AT$T crap, is in ROM and can't be deleted.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bmhome1:
RAM! RAM! RAM! is the topic. NOT ROM (READ-ONLY)! One CAN increase available RAM deleting what's been previously written to it. Period.

Crudscraper reclaims 40-50MB if you actually read ANYTHING about it.

i got a quick question on anyone who has the windows mobile phone. I am curious for anyone who has the energy rom or the phone without any att bloatware. Can you still access att's free wifi from your phone?

I did a search and it appears that to get to the wifi you need to click on one of the att application so if we remove the bloatware, can we still use the free att wifi at all?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] FL5:

If you use a ROM that doesn't already come with the ATT wifi information, the information in that thread (particularly the cab at post 6) will get you what you need.

Found it with a quick search. Search is your friend.

Calling the wifi free is a little bit misleading, as you are paying for it as part of that onerous data fee on your phone bill.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
has anyone been able to get these games to actually work on their nexus? the gameloft site says that the nexus one isnt supported yet the lesser much crappier phone, moto droid is supported?

im able to install the apk file but when it downloads its additional content Sandstorm gets stuck at 99%, NOVA actually finished its download and said "tap screen to play" so i did then i exits out to adw. so i start it back up again and it wants to download again and its stuck at 99%. my friend can run these games beautifully on his vibrant. is the nexus being forgotten already?!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Mi|enko:
A gpu problem perhaps? Don't both the droid and the vibrant both have better gpus than the Nexus?

NOVA works fine on my nexus one, i found a version for the desire
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
Would you mind linking where you bought it? Or pm me ;) I think its something with the downloaded files it requires. Also what rom are you running? I'm on leofroyo 2.0.0

I got gangstar working.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xixitete:
i'm too

i'm too, i can't play sandstorm, nova on CM 6 RC3
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
so can anyone tell me how this game gets installed on the n1? i got the apk and downloaded the required files and it gets to "touch screen to launch" then it exits and when i reopen it, it just self exits (takes a ****). also if someone with the desire version tell me if the downloaded files are different than the ones it regularly downloads?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] GldRush98:
It sounds like you're using a pirated version, in which case, is why it does not work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
no its a legit version, paid for. but it wont run. PERIOD
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] OJ in Compton:
The OP's symptoms aren't related to pirating it, for the person who asked above.

If you play the pirated version with your radio on, while it's downloading the files or before you even get to the title screen it'll say something similar to "this version of NOVA is not legal." If you're getting to the title screen and it crashes after that, not sure what's causing the problem. Try reinstalling or contacting gameloft? It ran fine on my phone.

by the way, the game plays pretty poorly on the nexus due to how confused the phone gets when using multitouch :(
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Mikey:
Was it bought using your phone, Gameloft uses Googles new verification steps.......

After 24-48 hours it gets validated and then allows the app to fully work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Forge94:
The demos work alright, although not very multi touch friendly for the Nexus.

You could try downloading the demo and buying it through there.

At first I got a yesno error but ran it with sh and not bash.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
I found this for running scripts at boot. It's a good place to start.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=690564&page=2

govscriptgen.sh

This script generates a set of scripts, one per governor. It's those scripts you would want to use at boot or in gscript. If you didn't change the location, and assuming that you could write to your SD Card, they should be located in '/sdcard/governors'. There will be one per available governor (this is dictated by the kernel configuration).

In GScript do the following:

1. Open GScript Lite.

2. Menu > Add Script

3. Name the script. Let's say Ondemand.

4. Check 'Needs SU?'

5. In the text box type (without quotes), 'bash /sdcard/governors/ondemand.sh'

6. Create a shortcut to that script and it will set the governor it is named for.

govswitch.sh

This one is for use in a terminal and prompts the user for the desired governor.

I think it needs the interpreter in front of it. Could you try the following?

That does it. I guess it doesn't automagically know it's bash =P

[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
I'm glad it worked. Yeah, Android's command line fought me most of the way until I learned to just call bash before running any scripts. I suspect it's probably because the command line on Android initializes in a relatively 'bare' state as compared to all of Linux's bells and whistles that I'm used to.

Let me know if you have any more questions. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] duffkitty:
Thanks for helping =) I wonder if its possible to add bsd style init scripts. I guess you don't actually need to change many services but an rc.conf file would be cool =P

I started on Slackware and a '/etc/rc.d/rc.local' file would be really awesome. Slackware being one of the oldest distros (if not the oldest) is very similar to BSD. I've had to configure Slack many times, but once you did it was rock-solid.

Android feels more like Ubuntu in some ways and Red Hat in others, but a very slim version of either. I can't really explain it.

Anywho. Glad I could help. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chromiumleaf:
How did you write this script one month in the future? :D

Seriously....would this script be able to change kernel voltage from command line? Say changing from undervolted to regular voltage for certain tasks (like GPS nav for example), then switch back to undervolt for other usage? Is something like that even possible? I've seen a few others ask about something like that in other threads.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
I'm just that ahead of my time! ROFL

DOH!

I corrected and reposted the zip file. :o
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
If there is a command line associated with it, I can write a script that can easily handle it. I haven't looked into the specifics on changing voltages...

TBH: That thought scares the bejeezuz out of me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chromiumleaf:
Check out this thread for some of the initial dev conversations on undervolting: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=697286 Ironically, I think some of it started from the guy who dev'd setcpu. Might have some info in it that could help you figure some things out. I'd try to sum it up for you but that stuff is just a bit over my head :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
These are kernel level calls that have to be compiled into the kernel. Unless they make this available as a system variable, like the governors are, I don't think changing the voltage from the command line is possible... or even safe. The governors are routines written to control different CPU modes of operation and are designed to be fairly safe to use in instances of power management. Adjusting the voltages from the command line would prove to be too close to suicidal because Bash can't operate at the speeds necessary to monitor voltage fluctations.

Example: We hit a voltage spike, which needs to be corrected in nanoseconds (billionth of a second), Bash would brick the phone by not responding until at least 50 milliseconds (thousandth of a second) later, if ever.

Now if they had modules written that the kernel had different voltage 'modes' and built-in safeties, then I wouldn't have a problem manipulating them from the command line. As it stands, I'll leave it to people who think in ARM Assembler, C, and C++. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
However, I am taking script ideas, so feel free to suggest anything else you might think is useful. :)

No Hero gets left behind!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] zansatsu:
Govswitch.sh has received an upgrade and it can now automagically generate an init.local.rc.new which can be used to set a governor on start up. It will also generate the chosen governor specific script and place it in the /system/bin folder. Thank you Duffkitty for the idea!

hello i am actually new to android, and i just fell in love with it,i am using

- Energy.Leo.23678.Sense2.5.Cookie.Aug.18

- mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense RC1.5b

- radio 2.12

i have a noob question and i tried searching for an answer but i couldn't find one, i'd appreciate it if someone could direct me to a thread that answers my question

i read somewhere on the internet that i can download something called Kernel or a zimage and copy it to the android folder on my sd card so that i get a better performance from android on my phone, my question is what is a Kernel and how can i get it, does it really make any difference?

another question, i have somewhat a low call volume sometimes,so should i change the radio or would downloading a new kernel help me get a better call volume?

sorry if the questions are dumb but i am new to all this

thank you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
The kernel is the software that allows the linux system (android or ubuntu) to communicate with the different hardware pieces of your device. The main step of android on the HD2 is development of the kernel. As the devs work on the kernel they release new versions. You probably read that updating your kernel would help performance.

I personally do not update the kernel myself. As the various builds are updated, the chefs will incorporate the latest kernel updates. As long as you are updating builds from time to time, you don't need to worry about updating your own kernel.

Hi,

I'm running mattcfroyosense1.6b-ppp this uses kernel michyprima 2.6.32.9 #70

There is an update for this kernel michyprima 2.6.32.9 #70 (r8)

How can I add this kernel to my Andriod? It is easy to put the Zimage file in my Android folder, but how do I add the .ko files?

Under the Shubcraft 1.4d install I could just add those files to the Android\root\system\lib\modules folder but in the mattcfroyosense1.6b-ppp I don't have these folders?

Thnx
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dbiggss:
You can just copy the kernel and overwrite the existing one in the android folder. Then you put the appropriate drivers in the matching folder of the root file in the android folder. To be completely honest With you, from my experience, you are much better off waiting for the chef to upgrade the build and use the included zimage(like mentioned above). You will have much less problems that way.

As far as the volume is concerned, buy louder volume hack from the market-it is a must have app and gives you alot more control over different aspects of the volume for various parts of the system.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SkywalkerPD:
Thnx for your reply.

Can I add the drivers to the rootfs.img then?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dbiggss:
There is usually a root folder in the android folder. If you explore this folder (i.e. Root/system/lib/modules...), you will be able to drop the modules that come with the new zimage over to of the ones that are there'. Then when you start android it will load the modules you placed in the root folder.

[XPERIA X10 General] saketh321:
Hi,

I have been using the x 10 for about a couple of months now... one thing I don't get is why the screen goes all weird on you and randomly presses buttons if you have moisture in your hands etc. For example if I get out of a shower and start using my phone, it never presses the keys I want it to press, just randomly presses all the buttons. Sometimes I hit the backspace and it doesn't stop even after I take my finger off of it. Tries to erase the entire line. Even if I have some sort of dirt or dust on my fingers and it comes in contact with the screen, same thing happens.

So is this something that is happening with all of your phones or just mine?
[XPERIA X10 General] mmsbludhound:
I guess this is a property of capacitive touch technology. Happens on my synaptic trackpad all the time.
[XPERIA X10 General] saketh321:
really? it never happened on my other phones even though i had capacitive... i do agree it happens sometimes with my trackpad as well, but not to the level the x10 does... heck if i get close the screen and blow on it the damn thing will start pressing keys... ever had that?
[XPERIA X10 General] mmsbludhound:
It was just a guess. And I've just tried blowing hard on my X10's screen, didn't work ;)

I was looking online and was wondering which series i should go with for tmo hd2.. the defender series sounds cool but ive seen iphone otterboxes and their HUGE. whereas with the commuter it might be more suited to my use of the phone(in jeans pocket). Been to official sight and seen the tech specs but that doesnt tell me anything about first hand use. If you got either series, tell me your thoughts plz!

After reading some of the other posts ive decided on the defender case, I believe it to be the best value and i HATE peel and stick screen protectors and the pix showing the actual size compared to the phone won me over. Now just hoping that with the defender, phone will still slide in compartment under radio. Thx for all the info guys! BTW got the case free, go go internet surveys!!!
[HD2 Accessories] ddgarcia05:
I got a defender case coming in this week. I'll keep you posted.
[HD2 Accessories] me:
One thing I am curious about.

I see MANY more posts in this forum about Otterbox, than about any other case, and wonder why?

Is it because...

1. The case is much better than any other?

or

2. Someone is actively using this forum to promote that product, getting free advertising for it?

In asking about option #2, I am not implying that either of you who wrote so far to this thread are involved in that. Yet, it seems to be a common practice in the mobile products world--for someone working for a company to post to forums such as this one, pretending to be an impartial user, telling everyone how great a product is, when in fact they are an employee of that company, getting paid to promote the product.

Not making any assumption about it happening here (just wondering, due to the very large number of posts about that one case), but I don't like it when #2 occurs. Of course any company has a right to promote their product, but they should do it honestly, with paid ads, not with fake "user reviews" in forums. (I have even seen on manufacturer's web sites, awards programs, where one can receive points towards free products, by posting positive "reviews" of the product on forums. I think such activity really subverts forums like this, so that one doesn't know whether someone's "review" is a paid ad or not. (And yes, points towards free products is payment.)

Sorry, for all the digression, but just curious, why such a large percentage of posts on this forum are all about Otterbox?
