[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harish.awe:
After rooting,, my Desire's usb data transfer rate has drastically reduced...:cool:

currently i'm running Open Desire 4.0 froyo rom,

i have tried many ROMs but the data transfer dint improve ,

i'm getting 1.5 to 2Mbps depending on the Size of the file,

i'm using class2 Transcend 8gb sd card....:mad:

so can somebody tell whats wrong with my cellphone..???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frantacech:
because have you ROOT
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killawatts:
Class 2 microsd write speed is 2mbps. Seems your transfer rates are fine. Try a class 4 or 6 card and see what you get.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frantacech:
No, if you have rooted phone, after root slow usb

I have Class 10 and slow. Before root OK, after slow.

Indepedence sdcard, fat32 or fat+ext ... slow
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harish.awe:
Absolutely,, before rooting i was gtting 5mbps transfer rate with the same sd card.....

But i dont understand what does rooting to do with data transfer rate,,,,???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
It's probably the EXT partition... :(

I have the same problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlSopranos:
I dont have a SD EXT partition and its really SLOW! 500KB/S! Please helpp! Got alot of stuff copying back to sdcard
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Can be a kernel problem as well. Try to search on the forum, I recall a thread where was a solution to this.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayiskon:
Transcend class 2 surely goes over 2 MB/s writing speed, i would also say it's something that has to do with the microSD partitions,maybe formatting and repartitioning would help
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
are you confusing the write speed and the read speed?? when you copy something from your sd card to somewhere else. that is the read speed! you will get about 5mb/s on any class of sd card... when you copy somthing to a sd card, thats the write speed, and there is no way you will ever get more than 2mb/s with a class 2 card, end off! full stop :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebuz:
Pretty sure class determines the minimum, not the maximum, write speed.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomicman:
I'm also quite pi**ed off with the copy speed.

On stock rom it was definetely fast and now absolutely slow.

Are you serious it is because of root?

Well, i prefer root more than faster writing speed - but i would really love to know the reason for!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
What ROM do you have now? Flash a kernel with the SD fix, and you'll get back some speed, but not the maximum (if your card is partitioned).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomicman:
I'm using Amethyst RC 7 (2.3.2), using A2SD+.

i think for GB is no kernel fix available? But to be serious, i've never thought about another kernel as the one which is included in the rom.

Any help is appreciated :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomicman:
so, i got the hint to use multi-móunt sd card which works really fine. I get again about 2mb/sec which is absolutely ok..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustForFunn:
Actually, yes this is Kernel related.

Sadly the latest Kernel .37 is affected.

But Luckily there is a fix.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bw7and:
lol strange but i was getting around 1-1.3mb on my class-2 8GB card,now after rooting,i am getting 3-4mbps.

also on other card which was 2gb(donno about its class)i used to get 3-4mbps write speed & now after rooting i get 10mbps.

P.S. i have custom rom installed
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aca85:
I had the same prob...

Solved it by ,completely formating my SDCard (dont forget to mount the partitions in Recovery) and after flashing a new rom,i flashed Cutts kernel and all works fine now again :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thkam:
I used to have approximately 5.0MB/s writing speed before rooting my HTC Desire. Since then, the speed dropped to 150~500KB/s. I tested with OpenDesire, PAYS-MIUI, MIUI, CM6/7 and they all give me the same slow speed. I read in one of the forum that Kernel 2.6.35.x solves the speed problem but I have not tried it. Anyway, a satisfactory work around for me is to use FTP file transfer from File Expert. The downside is, you'll need a stable WIFI connection to transfer large files.

Is there a possibility of having the new Miui Rom thats floating around on HTC Magic

if there is already a thread for it on a magic can you point me in the right direction ?

[General Questions and Answers] karim434:
:confused:Dear All,

I have an HTC HD2 (a.k.a. HTC Leo) and it may have a problem. It suddenly seems to be able to dial the last number called and also start playing music (from the HTC Sense player) all by itself.

So far this has only happened while I am using the Skyfire web browser. I have spoken to technical support at HTC and been advised to try, firstly, a soft reset and, secondly, a hard reset. So far I have tried only the first and it has not made a difference.

HTC have also said that there is no way to scan the phone for viruses because there is no need for this - no such threat exists. I have read conflicting information on that (including on this forum) so I am a little bit concerned.

Could someone help me with the following: 1) what could be causing this problem to occur, 2) how do I resolve the problem, 3) if it is a virus, how do I protect against this happening again and 4) if it is a virus, do I need to be worried that my information has been compromized in any way?

I am new to XDA Developers and could really use some help with this problem. Many thanks,

Karim434
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
Honestly, I haven't a clue what would be causing such an issue, and to my knowledge, there isn't any mobile malware that would be capable of manipulating HTC Sense, as most hackers wouldn't dare take the time to learn how to manipulate HTC Sense, especially due to the several different devices using it, all with different specs.

But, there are malicious threats for Mobile OSs', though their 'damage intent' usually isn't worthwhile. Most of the typical current Mobile Malware threats are dialers that dial out-of-country numbers to rack up your phone bill {also paying the numbers it dialed due to non-toll-free services.}

Like I've said many times before on other websites, just because there are no OBVIOUS large threats for mobiles doesn't mean that you shouldn't get protection now.

You don't wait for your house to burn down and THEN get Home Fire insurance... do you? Be prepared. The mobile world grows larger with every hour, as do Black-Hat hackers malicious intents.

Good picks:

Lookout Mobile Security - Free

Kaspersky Mobile Security - $29.95 {Try the 30 day trial}

Symantec Endpoint Security - $??? I believe it comes bundled with Symantecs Endpoint for Enterprise

BullGuard Mobile Security - $39.95 {Try the 14 day trial}

I'd personally recommend Kaspersky Mobile Security due to it's Firewall, Anti-Spam {blacklist & whitelist for calls and sms}, and their 'Find My Phone' options.

I have wanted something like this device since 2005 and its finally going to be made... I´m one happy android user right now...

Plus its kinda open for developers to add compatibility for their apps... I can´t believe that Sony is the one doing this gadget...
[Nexus One Accessories] bcpk:
Yeah, it looks amazing. I totally want one. Hope it's under €100.
[Nexus One Accessories] ohgood:
but, it's a sony :(

if it weren't for being a sony, i'd say it totally rocked. sony screws up more things with their DRM and locked-in crap.

maybe they're learning... we'll see :)
[Nexus One Accessories] manaox2:
I've been hugely interested in this. For me its perfect in function... but not in form. I was really excited when I learned about it because I work in a professional environment where I am constantly surrounded by others and it just looks bad to be always pulling out your large phone (droid x). I also value having a watch over having to check the time on my phone, so that is a major plus for me. I would love to get email updates and check calendar events with a glance (not searching my pockets), so this sounded like it may have been perfect.

It fails in style and ergonomics. It looks like a toy more then a professional accessory. Its very thick compared to a normal watch, it looks even thicker then my Droid X. It comes with a very unattractive Velcro wrist strap (does not deserve to be called a wrist band). It stands out like a sore thumb. Lastly, I'm going to bet the price will be $150+ because its Sony. Sony could have a chance to develop a new accessory market that would have been geek sheik. Instead, I think they may discourage competitors from entering.

First post here, been lurking since I got my new android handset. This is a really helpful forum, glad to be here. :)
[Nexus One Accessories] krypticos:
here is a video. i think it looks interesting.
[Nexus One Accessories] ohgood:
hmm, is it playing music through the wristwatch, or the phone ? very cool, consider my mind changed, assuming sony doesn't cripple-ware it.

:)
[Nexus One Accessories] Gadgety:
So it doesn't look like the Live View has vibrating alert function, does it?

This is the best feature of the MBW-150 in order to get alerted about messages, RSS feeds, SMSs, mails etc without anyone else noticing.
[Nexus One Accessories] manaox2:
That is too cool, way closer to what I was looking for. I really wish they had plans to create and support a new watch variation closer to that, it makes the live view look like one step forward and two steps back. Thanks for the info!
[Nexus One Accessories] rj3005:
The liveview can vibrate. (it´s stated in the user manual and the vibrating motor is visible in the internal photo´s of the FCC.

Can´t wait for Sony to release the SDK so I can add support for it in my apps.
[Nexus One Accessories] liqn7:
Useless Imo without a 3.5mm headphone jack :(

I had a look at this but went for the Mw600 instead.
[Nexus One Accessories] mik101:
Just eats up more board realistate -- I don't think thats what Sonys Engineers have envisioned for this anyways. I know personally I want one. So many possibilities as long as the SDK isn't garbage.
[Nexus One Accessories] Devastatin:
Bluetooth headset ftw.
[Nexus One Accessories] liqn7:
You can't get them to work together though as android only allows 1 BT pairing at a time?

Therefore the only way to get music is to plug it into the phone itself - which defeats the purpose of not having the phone on you physically.
[Nexus One Accessories] PacoBell:
This thing better have a more reliable track record than Sony Ericsson's prior attempts at similar watch-type devices. There were WAY too many DOA units and battery life was abysmal, even when it was functioning nominally. Take it from a guy who tried one and got burned by their so-called customer service department.
[Nexus One Accessories] Gadgety:
Thanks rj3005. Yes I found out once it does vibrate, once I got hold of the manual on FCC. Amazingly SE does not advertise the vibrating alert, though.
[Nexus One Accessories] InGeNeTiCs:
It sucks they don't have a release date other than 'before the end of the year'...I'd love to buy this, but without a timeframe of any sort, it's hard to get excited...

I've just ordered one today from amazon UK. It cost me 104 CAD with shipping. I'm really excited, more than when I ordered my MW600. It is scheduled to be here by the 19th of November so I will let make a video once it is here.
[Nexus One Accessories] suhas_sm:
Make a very detailed review, if possible :) Will it act as a replacement speaker for devices with terrible external speakers like all HTC handsets so that we dont miss calls ??
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
Any questions guys, picked one up today, charging at the moment.
[Nexus One Accessories] trojjanhorse:
I don't think the unit has a speaker to begin with. From what I've read, it can only be used as a remote to control your phone track list... I think they did not add a mic or a speaker to harness the battery longevity up to 4 days.

@andymck

Let me know if you have any complications with the gadget.

Quality of the wrist band?

Is it too bulky as a watch?

Is it laggy?

Does the heart rate monitor app work?

Thanks :)
[Nexus One Accessories] whoisthedrizzle:
If you can, post some good shots of the watchband where it connects to the display, I'm curious if you're limited to the band it comes with or if it's just a normal connector...

How's the lag?
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
slight lag, nothing major. Sometimes will drop connection but within 30 secs its back.

As for the wrist strap, you get a basic velcro strap with space for 2 locking pins (separate for the plastic snap in casing) which the Liveview then snaps into.

Not particularly bulky (in fact much smaller than some of todays watches

Not managed to get the sporty app working properly yet but will persevere.

The music controls are ace. 1 long press on the left shoulder button brings them up and away you go.

Anyhow hopefully a lot of the developers may integrate it into their apps and some of the excellent devs on XDA will hack this to its full potential
[Nexus One Accessories] kpjimmy:
Nice!

How small can the strap go? I have a small wrist to begin with lol..
[Nexus One Accessories] bcpk:
What's the screen like outside?
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
That pic is the smallest it will go (sitting on a dvd for reference)

I'll tell you tomorrow!
[Nexus One Accessories] suhas_sm:
If it does well outdoors too. I might to th extent for making myself a customized wrist straps from some degisner or watch maker :P But question is could it replace watch ? :)
[Nexus One Accessories] Humz:
How secure does this feel? if the lovely new device likely to fall off at all?
[Nexus One Accessories] trojjanhorse:
@andymck

Thanks for getting back so quick and with pictures :)

I'm really worried that I won't be able to tell time during sunny days :( Knowing how OLED behaves... this is bad news. But I would like to be corrected otherwise.

Kinda sad that it's velkro. It will wear off over time, especially the contacts.

No doubt this device will be tweaked once it's boundaries are expanded with some plugins and software mods (hopefully will fix the lag).

Please keep us posted andy :)

Another question "Wearing this pseudo-watch, can i be the coolest kid in campus?" lol
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
Though that but nope, It takes quite a bit of effort to get it out of the watch clip!

I'll let you know after i've been in work today, with a load of tech-heads!
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
Loads of oohs and aahs today. Absolutely fine in sunlight
[Nexus One Accessories] bcpk:
Could we get some more pics? :P
[Nexus One Accessories] trojjanhorse:
=D that's what I wanted to hear

So you could see the time perfectly fine with direct light hitting the unit?
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
Yup, fine, bit sunnier today so will check again. will get the camera out tonight and put some more pics up!
[Nexus One Accessories] danbec:
I've posted some feedback on another topic here: showthread.php?t=836007&page=3

In a nuthsell, the hardware is not bad at all, but the software sucks.

Not only the functionality is very basic, but the BT connectivity comes and goes randomly.

I've not found a repeatable way connect to the device, and several times it severely crashed the phone (HTC Desire) to the point where only removing the battery could save me.
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
After messing for a few days, agree completely. The hardware is great and if devs pick up on it, it should do well. The software with regards to the Bluetooth is it's big letdown. Yesterday was fine, only one disconnection but today's been a nightmare. Must have disconnected ten times plus. Never had it crash the phone though.

How's your battery? Alleged 4 days but only getting around 12 hours at the mo:(
[Nexus One Accessories] maggii05:
Is it only for Sony X10 series? Or other Sony phones?

Does it support other Android phones? (HTC for example?)
[Nexus One Accessories] andymck:
I'm running it on a Nexus One CM6.1
[Nexus One Accessories] maggii05:
Think it will run on HTC Hero, Android 2.1?
[Nexus One Accessories] torres76:
It runs on any android 2.1 +
[Nexus One Accessories] mongoose:
Runs on any, but not all features is working.

On GT-I9000 all works fine except music player control (play/pause, next/previous).

I hope it's temporary and we'll get liveware update soon.
[Nexus One Accessories] danbec:
Little more than 48 hours (2 days), just with time and very little connection time (given the fact that the dang thing doesn't connect and when it does it crashes the phone real bad). A link to SE support anyone? Need to shout.
[Nexus One Accessories] gadgetgaz:
It is smaller than many modern watches but maybe a bit thicker.

If you want it mainly for telling the time it's a bit of a pain pressing the button to turn the screen on just to tell the time.

The strap bracket has the standard spring loaded extendible pins that I think all wrist watches have so you could put any watch strap you wanted onto it.

I am using it with a Nexus1 CM6.1 nightly and it is constantly losing BT connection. Very annoying.

When it is connected though it is quite cool and does what it says on the advert.

Another negative point though - you can't see the notification LED that is built into the left button when it is on your wrist!

And there doesn't seem to be a way to change the date format from yyyy-mm-dd or change the time form 24h format.

[Nexus One Accessories] CircaView:
I am new to XDA, and have a LiveView Question for you...

If you visit our GreenTyme non-profit's Circa-Med.org site, you will see why we were originally so excited about the S-E LiveView announcement. So much so that we named the forthcoming LiveView version of our Circa-Med "CircaView".

Andy, obviously, we need to make an Android apk version of our Flash app. And then use LV's SDK. But should I have any concerns that S-E is not -- in the near-term -- going to fix the disconnect problems? Because a watch that is not always running is just as bad as a watch that rarely is telling you the right time when it is running. And just as we seek to not disappoint any of our other users, we do not want to disappoint our future watch users.

So how fast do you suggest we move to have an operational CircaView?

Warmest regards, Yale Charlottesville Virginia USA
[Nexus One Accessories] gadgetgaz:
Regarding battery life, I left it paired to my phone overnight and switched on. It was flat enough not to even wake the screen by 7am.

When I went to work this morning at 10am it was fully charged. By 3pm it was flat and wouldn't switch on!

If this thing can't even get through a day's work what is the point?

One good thing though, it has the good sense to keep its own time when it's not connected to your phone so, on the many occasions you wake it up to find it's not connected, at least you can still tell the time:-)
[Nexus One Accessories] ollegut:
Music app with LiveView

LiveView only works with the stock music app "com.android.music".

On my Nexus One it's called com.android.GOOGLE.music but after installing the Music.apk from CM6.1-RC1 I'm able to control the music app with my LiveView.

If only it was that simple to make the calendar work...
[Nexus One Accessories] AntonyStark:
Mine popped out on my arm, I was carrying something, the holder having no back is such a big design flaw. Panel cracked inside.
[Nexus One Accessories] spidermonkeyrob:
Battery life is atrocious on this thing. Four hours max. Also, the first day, (11/27) I had huge connection problems and was irritated with it so I didn't touch it again until today (12/1) and it stayed connected for most of the time I had it on and only dropped twice. Another annoying thing is that it seems to "lock up" sometimes and won't get past the clock screen to the home menu.

I can not recommend this thing in stock form and I'm hoping a dev picks one up and fixes a few things or even throws on their own custom firmware on it... which is why I bought the thing in the first place. Sony Ericsson comes up with some amazing ideas... but they fail at putting them into practice. They should just become a design/concept company and let someone that won't drop the ball do the hardware/software part.
[Nexus One Accessories] raziel200:
is this thing out yet? a couple of you guys have one and i cant find a place that sells them

[Nexus One Accessories] raziel200:
Lol no I'm not going to rush out and get one I was just curious, doesn't sound like the best piece of equipment right now, but you never know some Dev could turn that around.
[Nexus One Accessories] CodeMonkey:
I think it's a great idea, just poorly implemented. A second revision of this would be on my 'maybe' list now since the Nexus S doesn't float my boat.
[Nexus One Accessories] raziel200:
Yeah I would like to see them give this a second pass and improve on the faults
[Nexus One Accessories] spidermonkeyrob:
The problem is that this isn't their first "Bluetooth watch."

I have an MBW-150 EXEC and that thing is amazing... thanks to Openwatch/SmartWatchM mostly... Hopefully Moneytoo or another developer picks one up and the problems with it aren't hardware related.

If they are hardware problems, then this thing is a huge step back for Sony Ericsson.
