The title says it all. Can I add a quick link to a document, video file, or a folder?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Yes sir you can!

Easily's way is by using Total Commander!

steps:

- Open Total Commander

- navigate to your file/folder what you will like to have as shortcut

- select file

- on the bottom pres "File"

- select >>>>> in popup window

- select Create shortcut

- add the path of shortcut

That's it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tidy01:
You can also do it within windows on your HD2,

Open file explorer and navigate to the folder you want to make a quick link to,

Touch & hold folder, select COPY,

Navigate to My Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs and at the bottom of the screen select Menu, then Edit, then Paste Shortcut.

This adds the shortcut to windows start menu which can then be selected as a quick link in the normal way. It might seem a bit long winded but once you try it you will see it's quite quick and easy.

Cheers

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolageek:
I've noticed that since I upgraded to CM-101 (I'm now on 106) that my battery takes FOREVER to charge. For instance, last night I went to bed around 1am and put my phone on the wall charger it was on 17% and when I unplugged it at 9am it was only 67% charged.

I'm at work right now and I plugged my phone about two hours ago and it was at 50% - two hours later and it's at 64%. Before it would at least be at 80% by now.

I haven't installed anything that I would think affect this (no major notifications, etc..)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrono:
Check your wake time, it could be that your phone is staying awake and sucking up the juice that should be charging it. Also, does your battery die quickly? A possible culprit could be tango, it has a bug that doesn't allow the phone to sleep.

Download Watchdog Lite and see what's going on in the background.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolageek:
I'll check out watchdog lite and see what it tells me. It did it again last night. I plugged it in at 12:30am and was at 23% - this morning I woke up at 9am and it was only at 89%. I turned it off and left it charging another 15 minutes and it was up to 96% when I turned it back on. With light usage (20minutes using Music and checking email/SMS message a few times) it's now 11:42am and my battery is down to 51%. It hasn't been this bad in at least a couple of months.

The only that I did over the weekend out of the ordinary was use one of those AA powered portable-chargers that I bought at a drugstore because I was down to 16% and wasn't going to be near a charger all day/evening. Could that have messed something up with my battery?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
Same with mine. Did you guys do the OTA update? I did it to watch Green Hornet and it wasn't doing it before.

I plugged it in at 1am @ around 50-60% and woke up at 8am and it was only @ 88%!

I used the wall charger, so it should be getting 1 amp.

UPDATE:

f*cking duh! ooops, my bad! I was developing last night and left STAY AWAKE WHILE CHARGING enabled! :p

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] green_archer:
If you plan to sell it (Unrooted) - Flash RUU.

If you want to sell it (Rooted) - re-partition your goldcard (sd-ext) and then re-install the custom ROM.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
its just because of the custom framework, it causes bootloops sometime if you hard reset ....... just flash leedroid again from recovery

I guess some of you know the Samsung Spark LWP already. If not here is a screenshot of the original:

How to install?

Extract liblwfa-0.A.2-mng-p1.7z

adb remount
adb push liblwfa-0.A.2-mng-p1.so /system/lib/
adb install BLACK_TATLiveWallpapersSpark.apk
adb install BLUE_TATLiveWallpapersSpark.apk
adb install GREEN_TATLiveWallpapersSpark.apk
adb install RED_TATLiveWallpapersSpark.apk

If you use the original Samsung LWP already you can skip the .so file since it's already on the phone.

And here are the ones i made:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Pattye:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] g4rb4g3:
Not from me... It's not that hard to install. You don't even need to reboot.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] InGeNeTiCs:
How about a black background with just the 'spark'? Any way to make that happen?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] MrCDWJR:
i'll take a shot at it when im off work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] MrCDWJR:
so far i was able to make a dark grey one for myself. but im going to attempt to make a black one
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] MrCDWJR:
ok i just made a black one and installed it. so far its working good but i havent edited the name of it yet. if youre interested then just install the zip i attached (your_app_signed.apk). if you already have the lib installed from the OP then just install this apk and thats it. long press anywhere on your screen and click livewallpaper. the apk should show up as blue sparks still but its black. let me know how it goes.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] g4rb4g3:
I made a black one right now, you can install it like the other ones.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] disgustip8ted:
This is great, love it on my n1. The only choppy-ness is right as those first two sparks collide and after that its pretty smooth. my new favorite wallpaper.

I sent the apk files to my friend with a samsung, i guess he didnt have these on his, he only had to install the apk and they worked for him.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
using the black one.very nice, good work.

Can confirm it uses no cpu while asleep.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] awdlexusis:
would love a update.zip or metamorph style,no luck with pushing...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] disgustip8ted:
pushing worked fine for me

make sure you do adb remount before you push the .so file to /system/lib/

what was the message you got?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] soulassasin187:
Love the white on black. How about blue on black? How you did the colors?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] awdlexusis:
was copying and pasting from his code used adb push liblwfa-0.A.2-mng-p1.so /system/lib/

looks like the dowloade is p.1.7z not sure if its updated or whats up..but after installing and trying to apply i get black sparks has stopped unexpectedly please try again wont load

?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] disgustip8ted:
You have to extract the.7z file with 7zip, you will get an .so file, push that

[Captivate General] Delldorado:
Just a quick question about rooting to my internal sd cards. Just so everyone knows im using Froyo.

When i mount my phone and go to my computer i click removable disk drive H with 13.4 GB free. After clicking it 5 folders appear: Android, DCIM, external_sd, LOST.DIR, and Nook.

Now i am wondering if the internal sd is what all these folders are located on, or if there should be a folder for my internal sd. I originally assumed that it was all on the internal sd however after trying to root for the last 5 hours and failing its raised question.

after i click "reinstall packages" i then get an error:

_Install from sdcard....

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E:failed to open/mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (No such file or directory)

now i know the "update.zip" file is the file added for the root, but according to this error it should be located to a folder name "internal_sd" however no such folder exists. Like i said before i thought the entire removable drive was supposed to be the internal memory so why would there be need for that folder and if i do need the folder do i just create it is is it a hidden file or... yeah i have no idea, help please?
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Unfortunately you can't root Froyo with an update.zip (unless I missed a post). I did it this way Captivate JI6 (v2.2) Hacks (root, non-market, no start up sound)
[Captivate General] zelendel:
you are right 2.2 cant be rooted by the update.zip method. Nothing can be loaded by an update zip at the moment due to changes in system
[Captivate General] ianwood:
If you look closely at the messages it is giving you. It has found the update, opened it and then tried to verify it which is where it fails. The reason being that Froyo requires digitally signed updates. The root method we used for 2.1 uses an unsigned update file.

I am curious about the LOST_DIR folder. I have em too. Also note that the external SD card is no longer under /sd but /external_sd.
[Captivate General] Delldorado:
hmm alright i just hadnt seen anything that said i couldnt do it that way yet, i dont know anything about this stuff. went to that link but have no clue how to do that either so i guess im screwed
[Captivate General] ianwood:
Read up on how to set up and use ADB from your PC (search this forum), specifically pushing/pulling files and using the shell. Once you've become familiar with that, the instructions for rooting JI6 won't seem so difficult.

For everyone who was weary to remove the bloatware on their 2.2 install throught ADB:

I have just received an email from Joel Bourquard, dev on TiB, and he's just sent me a test version of an updated TiB that works on our phones with the 2.2 update. I have it to give out to those who want it and told me to expect it in the market for download soon.

Edit: Totally just realized I got click happy and placed this in the Dev section. If a mod could move it to Apps and Themes that'd be great. Or if it stays here, I don't know

So i'm retiring my G1 today and picking up an HD2 tonight. I have done alot of reading about android on Hd2 and that the battery life performance isn't that hot yet. But nobody really specifies the range of battery life. i know it depends on use, but with moderate usage am i expecting to get 3 hours of like or like 12? i also know it will vary from rom to rom, but which one so far by user experience seems to be most stable? thanks for your help guys.

With heavy use I will make almost 3/4's of the day, and if with just light use i will get about a day and a half out of it. Im using darkstone froyo v3.1 w/sense

I cant really say if its the most stable because the only other one i have used is a MIUI which is pretty cool just doesnt havnt have facebook sync. the froyostone sense build I use is awesome, I get no black sod's or screen freezes, wifi, gps, 3g, music player, and youtube all work perfectly. I havnt had to boot back into winmo in 2 weeks now, and that was only because I had to inorder to upgrade froyostone from v2 to v3.1
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Katarn2000x:
I had incredible problems with battery life with the stock TMOUS HD2 SD card. After swapping to class 4 8gb sd, it's been very good, ranging from 3-7mA standby lasting about 24 hours or more on a charge. It's current 3:14 where I am, I took my phone off charge @ 7:00 this morning and I currently have 59% charge left. There's some sort of bug with android where I can only charge to 96% (maybe my battery isn't calibrated??). I digress.

Things to note with the HD2:

If you're getting a TMOUS I really heavily recommend replacing the SD card with a decent class 4 one, connect to an SD Card Reader on your computer (DO NOT DO IT THROUGH YOUR PHONE) and format it with 64kb allocation size on a FAT32 file system. That has finally given me a stable platform for Android with decent battery life after weeks of trying. Before this I got absolutely HORRIBLE battery life and stability. But yes, it's worth installing now as a permanent solution.

I had that same issue with battery only charging to 92% but after rebooting to windows and charging it to 100% and then reboot back to android I was able to now charge my phone to 100% with android. (see my signature for my build). Hope this helps someone.

I was only getting around 5hrs max battery life with normal usage, calling, texting and internet use. I just installed Setcpu and will play with the settings to see if I could maximize my battery life.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] impreZzA:
Hey :)

I have noticed the same charging problem, in winmo it works without any problem but in Android its getting very slow!

Just another question, to maximize battery life I installed SetCPU and set some profiles, like if "Display off - 384 MHz ..."

Nonetheless over night I lost 16% of battery, I dont know why?

Any ideas??

Does SetCPu needs root rights? Are they already included in our builds? (I am not quite sure about that point since I am not able to move applications to SD Card)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JanssoN:
How long did you sleep? :D

Yes, it does, but normally, in each build there is something like a Superuser approval for apps that requires root. But there are events it wont work.

And most of the builds are rooted anyway, I think.

The thing with the App2SD isn't possible on this builds, because Droid runs of the SD I think and your data.img is stored there anyway, so it is on the SD (correct me if I'm wrong)

How did you set the priorities of your profiles in SetCPU? The profile with screen off should have the highest prioritiy.
