Sms Backup is a pretty good option TBH, it will backup your texts to Gmail, so you can still read them whenever you want...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GunBunny07:
On a side note does anybody ever have a problem when texting on the keyboard that it lags?

Example when I text on the keyboard not all the time but sometimes it will stop texting but after about 15 seconds the letters will all appear really fast. I've tried different keyboards but same thing.

I'm using the most up to date software but it's always done this.

When I have vibrate on when I touch the keys if it lags it will vibrate for 15seconds then put in all the letters at once.

Hey - was wondering if anyone knew the answer to these questions.

1. Will upgrading to the Froyo Beta via Kies break the guarantee?

2. Will you lose all apps and their settings installed upon upgrading?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
To answer the second first. Yes you will need to do a factory reset and clear the cache so all apps and settings will go. You don't have to but you will get lots of FC's which will make the phone almost unusable until you do.

As for your first question. In the UK I just pressed update and it did so I do not see how it can be called a Beta build. I would say it is an upgrade for UK users but for yourself I do not know.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zvenn:
I've heard of apps that can backup your applications and settings - is there any which is better than the rest?

Or would this not be recommended because of the leap from Eclair to Froyo?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Have a look at the 2.2 update thread. It was mentioned there that you should not restore some of the settings as they are not compatible. Best to do a full fresh install I think.

don't want to be reinstalling 120+ Apps again in just a few days

good thing is, i keep everything in my AppBrain account, so it's simple click to install all again

Hi

I have CM6 Stable and want to get a small bluetooth keyboard. Would this one work?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mini-Bluetoo...PC-PDA-/280544067728?pt=AU_Laptop_Accessories

I have seen CM has HID support.

Thanks
[Nexus One Accessories] Technomancer:
Yes, I have exactly the same keyboard and use it with CM6.

Works like a charm.
[Nexus One Accessories] ztm.000:
How does this work? it looks cool.
[Nexus One Accessories] Forge94:
Exactly the same question I was thinking about of the the same keyboard.

And yeah, IIRC there's some terminal stuff needed to pair. Would like to have a set of steps how to though...

Oh and also, these cheap mini keyboards aren't able to register more than 1 press at the one time. So useless for gaming, and may make typing a little harder l.
[Nexus One Accessories] Presjar:
Well that sucks... Might keep looking then. I got a friends apple wireless keyboard to work today. Was good. But expencive :(
[Nexus One Accessories] Forge94:
Can you please test as to whether it can recognize 2 or more key presses at a time with an emulator.

Please :)
[Nexus One Accessories] Technomancer:
Which emulator?

Anything free in the market? or post a link to APK plz.
[Nexus One Accessories] Forge94:
Sorry for the delayed response.Can you download "nesoid", lite free version is on the market.

Then would you be able to download this super Mario ROM (only 40kb, don't worry)

http://db.tt/eUv49on

Open up Nesoid and locate the ROM wherever it's saved on your SD.

Make sure you check "enable input method" in the settings, then map the keys.

To test, could you try running and jumping at the same time, or anything that uses 2 or 3 buttons at a time.

thanks so much. If it works I will buy one straight away.

Can't thank you enough
[Nexus One Accessories] DBBGBA:
that would be a very useful information, i would like to buy one of those keyboards too if they support multiple buttons pressed....
[Nexus One Accessories] Technomancer:
All, right done.

I have mapped up q, down a, left o, right p, button A backspace, button B space

i can run left and right and jump at the same time.

So it can register at least two keypresses at the same time, which is not a suprise, all HID keyboards I have seen so far can do it.

It is rather uncomfortable to play on this keyboard though, because the keys are made of rubber so it takes little effort to press the key and there is no definite feeling when it connects. For hardcore gaming i would recommend something bigger and possibly with harder keys.
[Nexus One Accessories] Forge94:
Oh wow thanks for that.

Didn't expect you to give a detailed explanation and pictures.

If you're right about all HID keyboards supporting multiple presses, then I may get the other mini one which has a d.pad.

I expected this particular one to be awkward for gaming. Can I just ask, is it still ok for typing or are the rubber keys really that Bad?

Thanks so much again!

Edit: This keyboard looks better for gaming.

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.37676
[Nexus One Accessories] Technomancer:
Typing isn't bad but I make some mistakes because I don't feel it if the key made contact or not.

For gaming I would choose some keyboard with hard plastic key caps, the one from DX is soft rubber too so it is going to feel mushy too.
[Nexus One Accessories] Forge94:
Ahh ok.

I can't work out whether the keys on this keyboard are plastic or rubber. If they're plastic I will buy one, and it should be good to dock my N1 on that cover?

Care to help?

You need the update.zip to launch the clockwork recovery mode as opposed to the built in one.

if you override/delete it like I did you can find it in \sdcard\clockworkmod\recovery-update.zip

just rename it back to update.zip and put it back at the root of \sdcard

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSmith1:
Yes it does. Noticed this a couple of months ago. When using 4G and ad free, a site will not load passed the first ad. It will get stuck in the ad tag and prevent the entire page from loading. Using 3G or WiFi the site will load. 4G really isn't broken as you can use it for anything else that requires a data connection but you won't be able to load pages with ads.

For example, on 4G, load espn.go.com. It won't load. Now load the adless espn mobile site. It will work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maxy6:
This is an interesting problem, because Adfree does not interfere with browser operation on 3G or WiFi or with non-browser apps. The issue is specific to 4G and browsers. There must be a simple work around?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunyabiziz:
Wow I have been having the same issue and did know what the cause of it was. My first thought it must have be the custom rom that was causing this issue. I will uninstall Ad free to see if the issue does in deed go away.

Update: Yup, that did resolved my issue. Thanks OP
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awenthol:
AdFree merely replaces the hosts.txt file in the \system\etc directory. Are you guys implying that removing AdFree restores the stock file? I'm having this web page loading issue but I manually swapped out the hosts file without installing AdFree...

If so, that's a tough decision...no ads or full browser......
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littlerockant:
How did you get the original hosts file. I need it because my uninstallation of adfree didn't fix my problem with the browser not fully loading pages .

AdFree has a button to revert your hosts file. So reinstall, revert, then restart.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imranbashir_uk:
Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has got to the bottom of why the HTC Mail App Version 2.00.0037.218634 (as installed via the Android 2.2 OTA update) does not work with Hotmail Exchange ActiveSync.

From what I understand the issue is not with hotmail accounts being activated, as people who have installed the stock Android 2.2 Mail.apk on their devices have been able to setup the account and get a combined email inbox.

From another forum here is the stock Android 2.2 Mail.apk

http://www.4shared.com/file/hP_PfaD8/Email.html
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whittssg:
Same here, i thought that it was my hotmail account at first but then i read on Paul Thurrott's blog that ActiveSync was being enabled for everyone on the 30th August. I just downloaded the Android 2.2 stock mail client and it the sync works perfectly - think i prefer this over HTC's so may stick with it... Thanks for the link.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ix9:
+1 thanks for the Link!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imranbashir_uk:
Just a word of warning, I don’t think this application can be uninstalled once installed (please correct me if I am wrong).

Also, you will no longer receive a counter of the number of emails received as there is no homepage widget with this app.

Finally, from what I have heard, Google search does not search emails contained within the Android Mail App.

Ideally I would like to see HTC patch their Mail App. I think the missing functionality is the ability to accept certificates and it is this that is preventing the HTC Mail App from syncing with Hotmail Exchange ActiveSync.

Please correct me if I am wrong on any of these points.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imranbashir_uk:
Yes,

Uninstall works fine, apologies for that. No HTML Support :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
Is this definitely the stock Android 2.2 app?

Because it's identical to "Improved Mail" on the Android Market Place but oddly is labelled as version 2.2 but Improved Mail is v1.75. I'd be surprised if Google would allow an e-mail app on the Nexus One that doesn't support HTML e-mail.

The one on the market place has a couple more option so I'm assuming it's newer (still no HTML or Move mail into new folder support though). It's also more stable. I found the one in the link above made my HTC Desire go very slow and unstable (unless I killed on of it's mail services).

Touchdown is the best alternative I've found. It's pretty powerful but the interface is a bit ropey. It's also 20 bucks!

I second that. It's not listed as a Universal Search option.

I've e-mailed HTC Support. I suggest others do the same. They need to send out an OTA fix.

About the only good things about Improved Mail are:

* Hotmail Exchange ActiveSync

* Combined Inbox

Otherwise it's pretty basic.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
I've heard back from HTC Support:

"We are sorry you have had to work around, to get something to work, as the software was not compatible.

We are aware of this and I will for record send this information to the appropriate team. We are always working on fixes for our future updates.

but as of now i have not got that information."
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lothaen:
I'd like to see this fixed too as downloading a separate basic app at about 3mb or even higher, just means I am wasting space on something that should be there anyway... with things like the flashplayer updates taking up 12mb of my internal storage - I'm only left with 14mb!

Anyhow, I thought I'd email HTC too to see if we can push them along a bit if they see a bit of interest in getting the e-mail application fixed...

Will see if they have the same response.

Have it running on Improved Email for now.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
Thanks. I'm sure they could send out an OTA update. Hotmail is only one of the biggest e-mail providers worldwide and HTC said they know about the problem.

The developer of Improved E-Mail has said he'll look into why HTML e-mail support isn't working because he reckons it should. I've only got 20-22Mb free and you can only move so much to SD card.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lothaen:
Not any indication of a fix
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
It's not just the HTC Desire. HTC Incredible and Evo users in the States have reported it too. Given how big Hotmail is and I bet it affects all HTC Android phones (at least since the Hero), I hope HTC are working on it as a matter of urgency.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimHawker:
Hi Guys, new to XDA but thought I'd join as I have a shiny new HTC Desire HD.

Unfortuanately the Desire HD still has Hotmail Activesync issues (i.e. it won't work - comes up with the "please try later" error message). I am using Improved Email until there is (ever?) a fix - but I'm finding it slowing down the entire phone. After a couple of hours of improved email running the phone animations become really choppy. As soon as I force close improved email, everything returns to normal. Very odd.

I have emailed HTC about their Mail app incompatibility with Hotmail, and received the generec response below:

Come on HTC! The Mail app is really letting down an otherwise incredible device.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimHawker:
A Quick update, I emailed HTC back saying that the response provided was not good enough, told them that they needed to fix the issue pronto, and that I am considering getting a refund due to this... Seems drastic but might as well use the fear tactic.

They instantly replied with this:

Let's hope they actually are working on fixing the issue. I still can't get around why they would remove the original android mail app that does work, and replace it with their own crippled app.

I tried installing the original android mail app posted earlier on in the thread but it says "problem parsing". Anyone have an idea as to why this issue has occured?

Tim
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
Thanks TimHawker. How can HTC release the Desire HD, knowing it has this bug?

This isn't some 2 bit e-mail service no one has ever heard of. Hotmail is in the top 3 (maybe number 1) of webmail services world-wide.

I've not found my Desire slows down with Improved E-Mail but it's funny you should say that because I did when I tried the Native Google Nexus One Mail App (which I'm confident is an older version of Improved E-Mail, it's identical). Exactly the same symptons. I too had to kill it, to get animations flowing properly.

I've not found that with Improved E-Mail though but didn't try it for as long (so it's certainly possible I would have the same problem). I'm having to use HTC Mail and POP3 because every mail app I've tried doesn't work with HTML e-mail when using Hotmail's Exchange ActiveSync (Hotmail with POP3 is fine). See here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8882069

I wouldn't bother. It worked fine for me but it's identical to Improved E-Mail in every way (likely an older version). Google must've licensed it from the owner of Improved E-Mail, surely?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimHawker:
Thanks for the reply bradavon.

You're 100% correct there, Hotmail is the number 1 worldwide webmail service with over 350 million users. HTC should be questioned as to why they have decided to provide an incompatible app with the most popular webmail service out there. I just can't quite fathom it.

Thanks for the info. Perhaps it's the opposite - it's the Google Android defacto mail client, but improved by the author, mwebster :D

I think I'll send HTC another email informing them just how big Hotmail is - perhaps they have their heads in the sand and think it's used by a few plebs with no smartphone interest.

Anyone else with this problem please bombard HTC's inbox! They may then listen and provide an OTA update.

Tim
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradavon:
Microsoft only finally finished rolling out Hotmail's Exchange ActiveSync on the 30th of August. So that's something at least. Microsoft don't also support Android devices yet too but say Android 2.2 should work (2.1 doesn't due to a bug with it), other versions unknown but I'm guessing unlikely.

But when all other apps I've tried work with it (except for HTML support), it cannot be that difficult to fix and especially on the new Desire HD/Desire Z. Which shipped after the problem was known.

Good idea.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimHawker:
Ah ok, thanks for the info - wasn't aware it was such a short time ago. Still, considering the Desire HD has just been released the problem should have been fixed.

I have emailed HTC again, will post whatever they reply here.

How annoying!

This is one of the things stopping me from using my new HTC desire and sticking to my Windows Mobile HTC Diamond 2!

The other thing is not being able to set up 2 ActiveSync accounts at the same time (Not a problem on WinMo as there's a dedicated hotmail app that integrates with the regular mail app).

Seven client works too but the widget for it isn't the greatest unfortunately :(
