after setting up my exchange account, my calendar doesn't sync anymore, so I'm not sure if this is the culprit. any advise? problem with android exchagne sync is that you can't see the status of the sync progress (unlike ms activesync)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Redth:
Does this by chance contain any fixes for allowing a non standard port number to be specified when configuring exchange account?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BackfireNL:
Have you restarted the phone yet?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zenkinz:
yup. restarted :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PerpulaX:
It works here (on XXJPH at least)! Thanks so much!

The only thing I noticed is that the Email.apk from JIJP5 is not localized (at least not to German), but shows English text all around. That's not really a problem though, just in case anyone wonders.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] baldric:
does this fix the imap not deleting emails on the server bug aswell?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mclad:
aha! I just installed touchdown for exchange sync and noticed emails deleted in touchdown were still on my PC's outlook... annoying!

anyone know if this email.apk fixes this?

Hi guys I am trying to run this fix on my email.

I am running ODIN3 Froyo on my captivate but I keep getting a bunch of errors.

When I try to back up both files, it tells me that it cant find them. I tried to browse to the system/app directory but cant see the files.

When I try to copy email.apk to the sdcard I get an error that it a directory. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] VivekX:
Hey Guys,

I tried the above steps, all of the commands worked except that I don't still see the Email app in the drawer. I see the Email.apk file in the /system/app folder, re-started my phone multiple times but the Email app is no where to be seen.

Any pointers?

I was running this on the Froyo 2.2 build on my Captivate!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mallama:
mv /sdcard/Email.apk /system/app/
failed on '/sdcard/Email.apk' - Cross-device link

Everything is fine mail is removed but now i am getting this error pushing the new package to my phone.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adomatic:
I'm getting an error trying to rm Email.apk and Email.odex (read-only system file). I used SuperOneClick to root my phone and I have SU but I'm wondering if it's not truely rooted. Any advice on how I can verify?

When I adb shell and then issue su, I don't get any errors - just the # prompt so it looks like it wants to work.

FYI, I'm doing this because I put Froyo on my new captivate and can't reply/forward exchange emails. I was pointed at this thread as a fix for that issue.

TIA!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adomatic:
Looks like this may have been a reboot or something issue. I was able to get in and remove the Email files.

FYI, I got the same error as mallama above so I just exited shell and did an adb push Email.apk instead of doing the mv from the sdcard... Everything is working great now.

Thanks, yet again, XDA!
[G2 and Desire Z General] funkadesi:
So G2 will have 1300 mAH battery, which is a bit of dissappointment since most of us will not have the chance to stay plugged IN.

What I'm surprised to see is that the DESIRE HD, ---- G2's big brother has only 1230 mAh battery...

Is it because qualcomm's new chipsets are more efficient?

Or

Since the G2 is underclocked to 800 Mhz, thus that allows HTC to provide a smaller battery to compensate for the underclocked CPU?

If anybody can provide information with the new MSM7x30 chipset power consumption, that will be great!
[G2 and Desire Z General] ryaninc:
Well, my G1 only has an 1100mAH battery and it lasts me all day without issue. I charge it every night and it has no problem lasting through the day. So I'm not worried at all about the G2. :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
It should be fine IMO. I'm sure after all the backlash about the battery life on the G1 (which honestly I've never complained about), they'll make sure that it's not an issue again. Despite the processor being considerably more powerful, it's also a newer generation using a smaller die size.

- newer generation, smaller, more efficient processor

- 1300mAh vs 1100mAh

- SLCD vs LCD

I wouldn't worry.

I know manufacturer specs aren't always accurate, but the G1 (GSM) is only rated at 402 minutes talk time, while the G2 (GSM) is rated at 590 minutes talk time.

Assuming they got those numbers using the same methods, you can expect almost 50% more battery life.

I'm not worried at all.
[G2 and Desire Z General] funkadesi:
50%.... I highly doubt that... because the faster data speeds you are transferring (ie. 3G, HSPA+) the more transmission power is required as how I see it, thus it hogs more battery power like that.

the HTC EVO 4G has a 1500 mAH battery which i think is sufficient for that device since it boasts a bigger screen, more importantly that its operating at 4G speeds.

(even though its not even close to "4G" speeds) :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
Well, first of all not everyone is in a 4G area (including myself). Second, it possibly will allow you to only use 3g or 2g, similar to how you're able to disable 3g connections now. Lastly, you're comparing apples to oranges -- in similar situations you should be able to expect an almost 50% increase. At least, judging by the battery life specs posted on their site. I know battery life spec accuracy varies manufacturer-to-manufacturer, but these should be relatively accurate since they're estimated in the same method by the same manufacturer.

Obviously, it will vary based on what you're doing, what services you have running, how often you update data, how bright your screen is, the temperature, blah blah blah, but either way, in similar situations, the G2 should have more battery life. I'd be more than happy to compare my G1 with a new battery to the G2 with a new battery once I get it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mtl171:
more efficient proccesor. but i kind of plan to run it a stock speeds of 1Ghz but wonder if its going to kill the battery
[G2 and Desire Z General] Escanor2010:
I run my Sprint Hero 182MHz over rated spec and I get more life out of it with 2.2 than I ever did with 1.6/2.1 at regular speed.

I highly doubt overclocking it 200Mhz will kill the battery. I would say if anything the slower stock speed has to do with heat dissipation due to the extra space taken up by the keyboard/hinging mechanisms.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
Kill the battery? No.

Use battery faster? Of course.

1ghz is one of the "approved" speeds. Clocking to that speed won't be too detrimental to battery life. I think T-Mob/HTC is just taking a safe approach and trying their best to make sure people are satisfied with the battery life. Especially since 800mhz is "fast enough."

The more you overclock, the more inefficient the processor will become. For example, my PC processor is rated at 125w. When overclocked 50% (from 2.4ghz to 3.2ghz), it uses almost 80% more power...
[G2 and Desire Z General] atlp99:
EVO battery life v. G2

The big difference between the EVO and the G2 with regard to battery life is that the EVO is running 3 separate networks and antennas for those networks (1xRTT for voice, EVDO and WiMax for data) that is the largest drain on the battery life.

In comparison the G2 will only be connecting to 1 GPRS/EDGE/3G (UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+)Also while I am sure that there will be some additional power draw by the faster HSPA+ connection, I have not noticed any difference in battery use by since HSPA+ went live in my area. My average download speeds went from averaging 600-800 Kbps on UMTS to 4,000 -5,000 Kbps on average, using a Mytouch Slide. I don't expect a large difference in battery usage from the update to HSPA+ but I'll update once I get my G2.

Also one point on overclocking, generally overclocking means clocking a chip faster than its specification. Clocking the CPU in the G2 to 1Ghz is still within the processor's specifications, so it should be more stable than most overclocks. I'm sure that someone who has more experience with overclocking than I do will correct my assumption about this if it is wrong. ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] OgBrog:
I'm a bit worried about battery life too. Does anyone know if the 1300mAh battery it will use is currently used in any other htc phones? It would be nice to be able to pick up a few spares off ebay before i buy the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mtl171:
Battery life comparison of common phones:

HTC Evo: 1500 mAh

Nexus One: 1500 mAh

Samsung Galaxy S: 1500 mAh

iPhone 4: 1450 mAh

HTC Desire: 1400 mAh

Motorola Droid 2: 1400 mAh

Droid Incredible: 1300 mAh

G1: 1150 mAh

G2: 1300 mAh

while the G2 is on the lower end of the spectrum the slcd and more efficient processor should make up for it. though that might all change when we try to OC it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] AndroidZ28:
HTC Evo: 1500 mAh HTC Sense + 65nm processor + CDMA

Nexus One: 1500 mAh 65nm processor

Samsung Galaxy S: 1500 mAh TouchWiz

iPhone 4: 1450 mAh Irrelevant

HTC Desire: 1400 mAh HTC Sense + 65nm processor

Motorola Droid 2: 1400 mAh MotoBlur

Droid Incredible: 1300 mAh HTC Sense + 65nm processor + CDMA

G1: 1150 mAh First Gen... LOL

G2: 1300 mAh 800MHz + 45nm

We should be fine
[G2 and Desire Z General] mtl171:
read somewhere that CDMA was power efficient then GSM...
[G2 and Desire Z General] ThaGeNeCySt:
really? I've read the opposite
[G2 and Desire Z General] JRG1392:
Power consumption is less in GSM handsets as compared to CDMA handsets.

I don't know if this is reliable or not but...

http://ezinearticles.com/?Difference-Between-CDMA-and-GSM&id=3866964
[G2 and Desire Z General] OgBrog:
After a bit of googling I found that the G2 should use the same battery as the HTC wildfire. A extra 1500mAh battery will set you back a entire $5 on ebay, hope this helps!
[G2 and Desire Z General] funkadesi:
I can assure everyone as an elec engineer, nothing kills the bettery more than data transmission. Yes, it even kills more battery than leaving the screen on w/ backlight.

The thing is that with high speed data whether it be (3G, 4G, HSPA+) requires more transmission power because the CPU and radio or encoding/decoding BIGGER data packets compared to EDGE/2G. When CPU and Radio are both working at the same time with processing wireless data it takes more power because inner chip data transfer is taking place between RADIO <> CPU <> RAM. Thus reducing the battery.

At the end of the day, everyone's consumption is different based on WHEN and HOW they use their phone.

I guess we will have to wait and see.

P.S. I miss my NOKIA E61i, 6460, N71..... those phones used to last atleast 4 days without needing to be recharged. :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
Yes your correct overclocking is running a chip above what it is made for. When you do that you start to get problems.

But if anyone remembers the g1 comes with a 528 cpu but was underclock to around 380something during android 1.0
[G2 and Desire Z General] cracksmurf:
I just hope aftermarket batteries hit the shelves like for the g1. I've got a 2800 mah battery on my g1. yeah it has to have a custom battery cover making it a bit thicker but the extra battery life is well worth it.

Ok, I just rooted and flashed CM6. I previously had 1.6 and, using OpenHome, utilized all of my screens.

I'm using ADW Launcher that came with CM6. It's saying one of my screens is full when I only have one app on it. I've modified the ADW screen settings for columns and rows, as well as other stuff, and even deleted the screen and replaced it. It still says there's no more room on that screen.

Is there a setting I'm missing?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] megamikno8:

[General Questions and Answers] cubalibre79:
Hello Community!

I have setup a VPN network using Hamachi. The objective is to access my files and stream tv to my phone (HTC HD2)

I have an internet connection of 1MB/512 kbit/s on my phone. Any thing I stream from the PC using vlc will show on my phone just fine,I use tcpmp, no buffering at all, I've tested streams up to 400 kbit/s. I have tested streaming tv, webcam and audio files.

Now, if I try opening an mp3 file with a bitrate higher than 96 kbit/s directly from tcpmp over the vpn/internet, there will be a constant buffering every few seconds. Changing buffer settings on the player have not helped at all, there are just longer buffer pauses. If the mp3 has 96 kbit/s it will play flawlessly.

I have monitored the transfer speeds and when opening vlc streams, the speed rises up to 26 KB/s while when opening mp3 directly max speed is around 16KB/s.

I should mention that before vlc stream speed would also seat around 16 KB/s, but after I changed this setting in the registry the speed increased.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings

On the Edit menu, point to New, click DWORD Value, and then add the following registry values:

Value name: MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server

Value data: 32

Base: Decimal

Value Name: MaxConnectionsPerServer

Value data: 16

Base: Decimal

Any help will be appreciated.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Can any body recommend a decent program to transfer music my pc to my phone?

Media go is really slow on my pc, I tried the old disc to phone and that keeps putting music in the wrong order and instead of having 12 songs per album I keep getting 12 one track albums.

What are people using and any ideas why this is happening?
[XPERIA X10 General] stevegbee:
I use the media go and mixzing on phone. Didnt find it too slow and i put 30alb on in one go.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
The thing is with the pc its only got about 512 ram and 1.6 ghz proccesor which I find quite funny as the phone is almost more powerfull than the pc lol

If I were to put 30 cds on at one go it would be an all night job.

I need something that's not so intencive on the pc but actually works properly. Ideas?
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
The best and fastest method imo, "Copy and paste" it to your music folder.
[XPERIA X10 General] tuxo87:
Buy a USB2.0 PCI adaptor =)

In case you dont know you're going 12Mbps. That's quite slow my internet connection could do better
[XPERIA X10 General] tigger69:
I agree, easiest and best way.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Thanks for your help and suggestions guys. I'm guessing the music must be currupt or something cos even copy and paste not making it go on in the right order and mp3s keep skipping.
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Can't explain the skipping, but is your metadata all correct?, that could explain why it doesn't show correctly. What player are you using?
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm sorry I have absolutly no idea what metadata is. I'm using mixzing and paid for the upgrade lisence.
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Metadata/tags is the properties in your files which can be edited....

....and is what affects how players list tracks, so if I take 10 different tracks from 10 different artists, but edit the Album as "Selected remixes of the last 10 years", the player will list them all in the same album.

I have just started using MediaMonkey to go through my collection and update every track so I have the right album art displaying with Meridian on my phone, but still with some tracks the album art isn't being displayed at all but everything else is ok.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I understand what you mean now but its quite weird cos on my computer it displays everything in the right order with the correct tags.

I guess all I can do is blame some sort of curroption, it should be as easy as

1 take it from the external hard drive ( where everything is in the right order etc )

2 copy to pc ( still in the right order )

3 copy and paste to sd

But it all goes horribly wrong on the last step for some reason and it takes ages to sort it all manually but I may left with no choice :(

Thanks everyone for your help so far
[XPERIA X10 General] rvictorg:
+1 MediaMonkey is a great program for fixing all your ID3 Tags/Metadata/Album Art/etc not to mention a good music player too, highly recommend checking it out
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
I've been a diehard Winamp fan for the last few years but MediaMonkey is my number 1 player from now on and the features it has makes it a breeze to organise your collection. I've got my mothers music collection on my external, every song artist and title is in CAPITALS :mad:, and have put off transferring it to my lappy because of the amount of work it would have taken to sort it out, and whilst I'll still have to go through each individual file, sorting the casing i.e "Artist - Song Title" from "ARTIST - SONG TITLE" can be done with a click, for the whole collection.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Sounds like a good program then I'll give it ago. I just can't bring myself to sit there doing it manually, I spent long enough doing that on my old ipod and it is a grueling task. One click sounds good so I'll give it a blast.

Thanks for your contributions everyone :)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmfisher:
Is it possible that rooting the Vibrant causes lag? I finally rooted my phone to install the gps fix from the later firmware, and now my phone suffers horrible lag. Before rooting I had no lag and no delays. Everything was fast. Now menus take seconds to come up, programs take seconds to load. Is it possible rooting has caused this? Or maybe even the GPS fix?

Is it possible for me to keep the GPS fix, but unroot and remove One-Click Root and Clockwork? Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronos7:
It's not the root that caused the lag. Try a battery pull and see if that helps. I'm not sure fixes will work without root.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwillkillyou:
More apps more lag
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kponti:
I also felt that way but in a couple of days after a few reboots it will be back to normal. However my average Quadrant score definitely dropped by about 20-30 points (not much but I did notice) after I did the one click root method
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmfisher:
I thought it might be more apps, but I've actually taken apps off (none of the stock stuff though). Just extra games and apps I didn't use. It didn't help.

I've rebooted 4 or 5 times since then and nothing's helped. It's just very odd. I would expect root to lag at all unless it's calling super user for access validation everytime or something.
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
This is for our friends using the APAC/WWW/Asian HTC Aria that do not have a factory restore image from HTC to restore their phone. This is largely a repost of an the original method we used to install custom ROMs on the Aria that we used before Unrevoked's REFLASH installed clockwork recovery for us. This method borrowed a lot from Eugene373's original mytouch slide method, with uses an exploit developed by the unrevoked team.

I am reposting it here because the original thread is locked and I can no longer edit my post. I don't want to simply link to it because we want to make sure we don't do any modification that cannot be reversed. If followed, the ARIA can be backed up, modified, then recovered fully to stock. This is not an easy method for many.

Again, what this does is allow you to load clockwork recovery without installing it, backup your original, unrooted ROM and then install a custom ROM.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miles_t:
Hi, I have a strange problem. If I stream Video to my HTC Desire over WiFi (iPlayer, myPlayer) it plays perfectly for exactly 5 minutes then cuts out, stone dead! If not connected to WiFi and using 3g it's fine and carrys on after 5 mins?!

I'm wondering if there is a setting anywhere on the phone that is causing this? Or could it be something to do with the wi fi router? I haven't had chance to try this on another wiFi connection.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CASz:
My i9000m on the Bell mobility network is not picking up data after an overnight charge with the phone turned on. Today - nothing. I do have phone use and I can access data on WiFi.

I am running stock ROM. I unlocked the phone using a Rogers SIM card, about a week ago, but went back to the Bell network immediately after with no problem. After unlocking I got the Kies to work and updated to UGJH2. Since then, the network access has been spotty but I've switching to WiFi then switching back and it's coming back. I purchased this phone with a different Bell SIM2 then put my old Bell SIM1 (from an Omnia2) in this device.

*#7465625# shows Personalizatiob Status

network lock [OFF]; Network sublock[OFF]; SP lock [OFF]; CP lock [OFF]

What I've tried

1) Switching to WiFi and back - no data

2) Putting SIM1 back into the Omnia 2 - O2 booted up and accessed the Bell network including data. CONCLUSION - The problem is not the SIM card.

3) Putting the SIM2 into the i9000m - no network access at all; not even phone. This SIM2 is working in the O2 and originally worked in the i9000m. Much to my surprise when I put SIM1 back in the SGS it still picks up the Bell network.

4) Squeezed the SIM holder blew out with compressed air in case it's just a physical problem with the SIM being held tight enough - SIM1 still not picking up data.

So it would seem that there is a problem with my SGS reading SIMs other than the one in use when whatever happened happened. Any suggestions on how to get other SIMs, even from the same network, to work? If I have to submit my phone to Bell I need to re-lock it. How do I do that?

Thanks for the help.

--- update---

relocked the phone using *7465625*638*# then 302610 and my unlock code. Power off / on still no data access. Now *#7465625# shows Personalizatiob Status - network lock [ON]; Network sublock[OFF]; SP lock [OFF]; CP lock [OFF]
