Yes you are alone.
[HD2 General] alabij:
I work in customer service so I'm gonna take a leap and say your frustration has blinded you.

Hotmail or windows live only syncs 50 e-mails by default. Take some time to calm down and explain exactly what is going on.

1) What ROM version do you have

2) What exactly are you trying to do

3) What program do you want to use. i e Windows live

4) What exactly happens i e. Is it immediately you sync via windows live that it freezes or is it when you try to run a program.

5) Have you tried a soft reset; and if you have have you tried a hard reset with only windows live initiated to see if the symptons persist.

We'd all love to help but help us help you.
[HD2 General] jimbonics:
I use Exchange and Hotmail both through the HTC email interface just fine. I have Hotmail on manual sync. Works like a champ. If you want, try going into the inbox first, then doing a menu-->send/receive and watch the status bar at the bottom.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
There should be an option to only show that last day, 3 days or week. Do you not see that option when setting it up through Sense?
[HD2 General] jason370:
thanks for the replies. ill try ot be a bit clearer:

there are several ways to go about installing hotmail; i believe i've tried them all, with every possible configuration. they are as follows:

(please note that not only do i have sense disabled, i do nto have sense installed on my rom (see sig.)

windows live msgclient:

-- i constantly recieve the message "windows live is temporarily unavailable, please try again". keep in mind that i have exchange mail pushed in real time and two gmail accounts which sync every 5 minutes, no issues with them whatsoever.

here are my windows live msgclient configurations:

1) today screen options are unchecked

2) sync options: only "sync email" is checked

3) sync schedule: every 15 minutes, although ive tried manual and triead real time, same results.

4) syc status: synchronized

5) roaming: both boxes are checked, but ive also had them unchecked, no difference in results. still get this "windows live is temporarily unavailable, please try again"

6) messenger: unchecked

7) email: preview size is 15k but ive also tried every other setting, no difference. the other two boxes are checked but i have also had trhem unchecked as well, no difference.

8) about: version 10.7.0061.2000

after this failed for the millionth time, i tried using the htc email client setup instead. and uninstalled the windows live client. i get that same message constantly, AAAAAND my phone freezes up all the timne since it is constantly trying to sync 14k emails.

thats what i have thus far. the email works mostly. but the popup is crushing my soul.

any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

thanks guys,

jason
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
You need an option in the setup to only have it pull from the last week or less off the server. Otherwise there is no way that I know of besides deleting all of your old emails on hotmail to keep it from pulling everything on their server, which will crash your phone depending on how many emails you have on there. Window's Mobile setup lets you pick how many days worth you need when setting up Yahoo.

Did you log in to the hotmail website? I know they made some changes recently to an Exchange server format. I know that with my exchange account it doesn't give me the option. It pulls everything off the server. So I move old emails to a folder that I created on my local hard drive and move them every week or so.

Is there an option to move emails to a folder on your local hard drive in Hotmail? OR maybe you can set it up on the website so that it only pulls a few days worth?

Found this article: http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/zdnet-uk-first-take-10013312/hotmail-exchange-activesync-10018413/

no idea if this will work. probably not but at least im not taking crazy pills here.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
Yep. I bet you can set it up in that program. Either a local hard drive folder to move your old emails to or set it up to pull from a certain number of days. Now you are cooking with grease...
[HD2 General] jason370:
its showing up in my exhange mail on my pc, but im not seeing any folder option for the exchange mail on my hd2. can multiple exchane mail accts be set up on the hd2? not sure im doing any better here,

argh.

[HD2 General] josephvba:
Use exchange setup. Works great for me!.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
Pretty sure you can't have two exchange accounts on the phone.

How can I change this value ? Or do we need a new compiled kernel?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] iosub:
This a new kernel, base on EVO.. is completly new... just for testing.. New PPP fix, Gsensor etc.. but has wake up delay, no buttons light.. Battery drain... etc.. IT'S A BETA!

Maybe michyprima, can set .i2c_clock = 400000 in his kernel R11 so we can have Gsensor Working...

By now I don't recoment kernel gauner1986 (6 sep) is just a beta... but is a big step!! Great Job devs!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
awesome news !
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] eosrider:
Wouldn't raising that value for the i2c string make our battery drain faster?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
hey... can anyone point me to which file it's lcated at? I downloaded the source from git, and I'm going through the files but I can't seem to find that particular variable....

if anyone can point it out I can change the value and compile it for testing :)

sorry, new to this part so I'm not sure where to look
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cass67:
file is in arch/arm/mach-msm/board-htcleo.c

change

.i2c_clock = 100000,

to

.i2c_clock = 400000,

you need the new git tree for this, it lives in

http://git.linuxtogo.org/?p=groups/...it;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-on-wince-htc

basically

git clone git://git.linuxtogo.org/home/groups/mobile-linux/kernel.git

git checkout origin/linux-on-wince-htc

gsensor works well with this change but there are other issues right now besides this, wakeups from sleep being slow, battery while sleep high etc .. all being looked into ..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
thanks Cass for you contributions on IRC to move the project along. I've been using gauner1986's kernel he posted last night...do you know if he included the above fix in that?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cass67:
Yes he should have, if you have no or limited gsensor hang then for sure he did..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
lol, i've had the gsensor off...hehe. been messing with ppp trying to get it to hang and mess up the data.img again...lol. No success..:) I'll turn on the gsensor stuff and give it a ring...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cass67:
yeah ppp should be more stable in this tree
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
what is different in this tree from htc-msm2.6.32? That's the tree i'm using and that variable is not there.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cass67:
This tree is based on the EVO source and will be the one that gets updated moving forward. Seems to be less hassle to port stuff for Leo from the EVO source that it was from the MSM72K stuff. That had lots or hacks in it.. EVO should be cleaner in the end.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
Thanks.... does the previous hacks (on the old tree) to get some of the stuff (keypad light, led, etc) working on this branch? Sorry haven't tried it yet. Actually haven't seen a thread about it so wasn't really aware.

By the way, what's the new branch name? I can't seem to find linus-o-wince-htc. Might be just a typo??

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] iamgpc:
The new kernel DO NOT fix the touch screen freeze issue anymore. (with i2c clock is 400000)

You can using a G Sensor application, just shake a few seconds, and you will find the touch screen is freeze again.:mad::mad:

PS: I build the kernel from laste git from http://git.linuxtogo.org/?p=groups/...it;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-on-wince-htc

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] willhang:
While its great that this g-sensor issue is close to being resolved, personally i have disabled the g-sensor altogether and find that the Android is amazing without the freezes. and if you ask me? i dont miss the g-sensor 1 bit :).

Looking forward to the new fix! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cass67:
Yeah no one reported it was fixed (big bold red letters) :)

Its simply improved compared to what it was, You can now play a game of need for speed fully without a freeze, before this was not possible. So you continue shaking the **** out your phone to make it freeze and we'll continue to play some games while the freeze is not there and be happy for the time being :P

Have fun !!

So, is yours considered better?

Tried yours with monopoly classic... NO FREEZE!!(while others freeze sooo often) Never felt soo smooth before... but after 15 minutes of playing, It suddenly rebooted the phone... :p

What's the current problem for this new Kernel other than the slow wakeup thing and heavy battery drain?

Froyostone v2 rmnet with new kernel

Axlor WinMo ROM

2.11.50.20 Radio

set for 250mhz to 833mhz on interactive

profile set for minimum when screen is off

after new kernel and 4 hours of use, i can say for sure that my freeze issues have been resolved! :) but there's a weird problem with the lock screen scrolling, it's sluggish kinda, it works but it acts weird, but no biggy, totally worth the result :).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] unforseenenemy:
Downloaded and switched image, works alot smoother MOST of the time, every now and then i get a freeze that was worse than before takes 20-30 seconds for screen to come back on....BUT my main issue is Inet connectivity via wireless carrier no longer works...period! WIFI works great but no edge connection anymore!

Using Froyostone V2(tried with PPP and Rmnet)

On AT&T(thats why im only working with edge connection:-D)

Hope this helps, if anyone else is trying this on AT&T please let me and developers know if this is an issue for you too!

Keep up the good work guys!

First make sure you're using the right branch:

http://www.gitorious.com/linux-on-wince-htc/linux_on_wince_htc

Easy way is to do this:

git clone git://gitorious.org/linux-on-wince-htc/linux_on_wince_htc.git

Copy the htcleo_defconfig to the linux_wince_htc folder as .config.

Then read the first link and get the tools from the 2nd:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:
Hello, sup?

I'll start with my intention, my dad is building a library of photos for documenting the cities. He wants to capture where the photos were taken and the problem is that our camera doesn't have a GPS addon available. So we found one solution, we can use Google's "My Tracks" to track his paths and then patch them into the photos using a software. Now we don't got 3G networks in our providers(2 providers got but we don't use them), only EDGE.

I'll be getting my SGS tomorrow(hopefully, the previous one had 3 buttons download mode disabled and I bricked it) and we won't be taking it if it doesn't have the 3 button combo working. So I'll be probably flashing JPC to improve the GPS, now my question is would it be reliable enough on an EDGE network to track his movements for about 4-5 hours? Also, does the speed of data connection make a difference in the reliability of tracking?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BronzedDroid:
Just for the record, the camera supports GPS location written to the image EXIF. Basically it should (in theory) attach the location where the image is taken to the image metadata.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
it's not necessary to have 3G or EDGE to use the my tracks GPS software from google

you can still record tracks, and download the tracks to SD card

then when you get home just swap the SD card to your PC and then upload the Data at home
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:
I know that, but the camera would not be able to capture the quality of our camera or take 360 degree panoramas.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BronzedDroid:
Well then you can either use My Tracks (as AllGamer says, you don't need edge/3g), or you can still take a mobile camera photo for every time you take pictures with the other camera, so that you can just match the photos taken on the same location later on, and take the GPS info from the camera photo.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:
Thanks for your advice :), would My Tracks with GPS on SGS be reliable enough to keep the recording on for 4-6 continuous hours?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
4 to 6 hours is no problem, specially if you are not using wifi/3g when exploring the paths
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BronzedDroid:
It mostly depends on what shape your GPS is in. As you might have read, the GPS on the SGS can be pretty unstable and inaccurate, but some people seem to not have this problem (AllGamer is definitely one of them). Samsung has announced a fix to this problem which should come in the froyo update at the end of this month.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkoroje:
If you look around this forum you will see that many people are having problems with GPS. Galaxy is a great phone but is not reliable as a GPS device. If GPS is very important to you you are better of getting another Android phone such as Desire
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:
Yeah I've been reading those, the problem is that I already bought it on Saturday and will be getting a replacement on tomorrow, I'm stuck with the galaxy s. I guess I'll make it work :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
According to most people, GPS accuracy is not very high on the SGS, but personally I haven’t had many problems with it myself. I use it mostly while driving where accuracy is pretty good, but while on foot it tend to jump around a bit but still pretty ok.

GPS has a heavy toll on the battery, and we all know SGS doesn't have a good battery life to begin with (especially if the screen is used a lot), IMO it wont last 4 to 6 hours of continuous use, you might have to take a spare battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy Ngan:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
Even though SGS has a decent phone camera, image quality is no where near to even an entry level compact. I don't think anyone would be interested in using it for documentary purposes.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbuchholz:
Hey devs,

I need to ask if anyone knows how to change the vanilla lockscreen softkey functions. Specifically, I'd like to change the volume swipe to alternate between normal (volume on) and vibrate (vibrate on, volume off). I don't prefer silent because I still want to "feel" when I get messages and such when I'm at work.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASimmons:
You'll have to mod the Lockscreen.java code in AOSP in the framework base... which means you'll need to check out AOSP and do the compile of AOSP yourself.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomorrah:
All you have to do is go into Settings>Sound and enable Vibrate always. Then, when you swipe the jog tab is goes from normal>vibrate>back to normal.

or you could enable vibrate in silent only. either way, you dont have to mess with the fun task of trying to compile from source.

[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I can't tell if I'm imagining things or not. Earlier today, I was driving around while charging the phone (it still has debugging checked, mind you). I thought that since I put the phone on at about 87% (battery indicator pro), probably 15 to 20 minutes or more later, I saw it was up to 89 to 90. I don't know what made me try this but I unplugged it, turned off usb debugging, then plugged back in and selected charge only. A little less time had passed than the first run but I would guess 10 to 15 had passed. I checked and it was up to 95 already. Could the phone charge quicker if debug is turned off? I know it shouldn't but could someone try this and see if they notice any difference? It's probably just a fig newton of my imagination, right?
[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
It charges VERY slowly when connected to a computer. Charges MUCH faster when plugged into a wall charger. Even faster if the phone is off (but when does that happen?).
[Epic 4G General] e3chaos:
