[HD2 General] nlo:
I've tried it both of those ways, on my Macbook Pro and on another Linux box and from Win2K in a VM.

It's a contract vodafone that came unlocked when it arrived, had it nearly a year now.

I've tried two different downloads of the ROM (htc.com and the one in mskips thread) and two different sdcards, the 2GB that came with it and a Class 4 Kingston. I'll try formatting both cards using the sdcard.org formatter in Win2K and see if that makes a difference.

My desktop charger has now decided to die on me so I can't try anything until my new one arrives from Hong Kong in a week or so. :/

I got my phone about a month ago, and currently updated to 2.2 froyo with cognition 5.5 odin.

so I have no problem with my phone, but I was trying to do same thing for my buddy who just got his phone today. I was kind worried that download mode might not work, but keycombo works into download mode; however, odin didnt recognize phone, so I had to plug usb out and back and it recognize and when i start it looksl ike it's working but it says can't open the serial(compt) port.

I know i can update by clockwork recovery mode, but I'm worried it might bricked his phone.

please help me and my buddy here

Please take 1-2 hours and read these forum threads. Yes it is the OTA update - NO it is not Froyo 2.2 (if that is what your implying)

What you have is a soft brick. From reading this forum I know you will have to use ODIN and flash back to stock.

Can you? Im not sure. Do you have a hardware locked phone? If so did you flash the fix before the OTA update?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahyeahyeah1981:
So I installed automatic task killer just to see if I noticed a difference. So it says it is freeing memory when I engage it. Great, more memory available seems to allow the phone to run smoother/quicker. However, give the phone a couple of hours and gradually the available memory on the phone lowers and lowers until it goes below 100mb and beyond. Engaging automatic task killer frees some memory but does not bring it back to its startup memory of over 150mb. I of course do notice that my phone begins to get "laggy" once I start to dip below 100mb. I guess my question is, "where is all my memory going?". Im not too concerned about using automatic task killer. I just want to know where my memory is going cause this is most certainly the cause of a laggy phone. A quick reboot and my phone is back to its highest point of 158mb and running nice and smooth. What gives? Also where are the other 150mb or so that the phone has available according to specs? If its all dedicated to the the android OS than why is the phone so laggy by the end of day? Sorry if its too many questions but im just looking for some insight into the memory management of the x10 and android. Maybe a 1.6 issue?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongd:
It's nothing to worry about. Unused memory is useless memory. It's *nix based so the memory in use isn't going to drain the battery or slow the system down. It manages everything by itself. By repeatedly killing tasks you're actually stressing things unnecessarily.

The only time you should kill all the tasks is when you know something is being problematic, before locking your phone when you have a suspicious app that doesn't always stop automatically, etc. Otherwise the Android OS takes care of this by itself.

I stopped using task killers months ago (except for when I lock my phone because of what I mentioned above.. programs keeping it from going into a deep sleep) and my battery easily lasts two days with periods of very heavy usage. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord Takyon:
I only use a task killer to kill certain things when they cause problems, which is not often. Things I use often I leave in memory, they only get reloaded anyway.

Tbh if things are getting laggy that quickly you probably have an app that is misbehaving.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahyeahyeah1981:
Thanks for the quick replies. Automatic task killer has already been uninstalled. Looking forward to the update with hopes that it helps with lag issues:)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pngface:
Well that still doesn't solve the problem of badly written apps draining the battery. Often I've found that without a task killer my battery life has improved, but on occasion when I download a new app, I look at my battery usage a few hours later, and that app has managed to use 45% of my battery even though I used it for a few minutes. So then I just reboot :p

In conclusion, don't use a task killer, but keep an eye on the battery usage feature if you find that it has suddenly gone down (Settings -> About Phone -> Battery Usage)

then i came across this article http:// www.ipmart-forum.com/ showthread.php?t=528674 (watch for spaces in the link)

since reading this i installed watchdog lite and i only kill a task if its overusing the system.

you can set it to notify you when an app is using more than a certain % of resources and its great then if i need to i just kill that app/process
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alankstiyo:

[Windows Phone 7 General] hmarcus:
I'm on T-Mobile USA and these two devices are both coming out next month. I've had (and loved) Android since the HTC Magic came out last year. I love the MyTouch for it's FFC and the newest gen procs. However, I'm pretty drawn to the HD7 for it's new OS and large SLCD, however disappointed in lack of FFC (regardless of how little I would realistically use it), and it's first gen procs. It's got the same "guts" as my N1, but it's runs so well from the demos I've seen this week.

Anyone else out there with the same dilemma? Which is better?
[Windows Phone 7 General] predator290:
sort of, it has the adreno 205 gpu on it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hmarcus:
I know the myTouch has it. Are you referring to the HD7? Because if you are and it's true, I think I found my next phone :p
[Windows Phone 7 General] diablos991:
I am in the same boat as you. I have a nexus one and have loved it, but I am really liking WP7 so far. I believe that with such high minimum specs, the OS will see some nice apps and games in the near future.

I am about 90% sure that I am going to switch, I just have to decide between the HD7 and the Dell pro slide phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] predator290:
according to a couple sources the hd7 uses the msm8250 which has the adreno 205 gpu on it. same one as the g2.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hmarcus:
Ya the XBL game demos were nice. This and the Zune integration is what draws me to the platform. Since I have an N1 now I haven't been too concerned about updates, however MS will be starting on top of all that is great.

As far as the Dell; I love everything about it especially the gorilla glass, it's just that KB doesn't look like it's worth the added weight and thickness to the phone. However I saw a sign of a FFC on the Dell unbranded VP so that could be interesting.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
There are alot of information flying about.

Someone contacted HTC asking what processor, and was told the MSM processor, though, Microsofts webpage states QSD8250.

Someone else contacted HTC about the screen, and was told it had a standard TFT screen (Slashgear also states this).

At the end of the day, whether or not the myTouch will have a superior CPU doesn't matter by the fact that it runs android, games are written to be compatible with low end android sets, meaning if the myTouch had a tegra, games would still look crap.

The Galaxy S is a good example. It's GPU pushes about 80million triangles per sec, compare this with iPhone4's 28million.... now show me ANY game on Android that looks better than that on iOS? And the thing is I highly doubt there are much, if any, games on iOS that use half of its power. (Epic citadel and an upcoming iOS game called Aralon shows off what the 3GS/iPhone4/iPad can do. Not sure how much triangles/poylgons its pushing tho).

The Adreno200 pushes about 22million, which isn't a big difference compared with the iPhone, so games would be comparable.

There is a rumour that Android 3.0 will bring in minimum hardware requirements to reduce fragmentation, we'll see.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hmarcus:
Very true, while I like to think of myself as an HTC/Android fanboy, however I always have to lend Android its faults. Gaming and media are huge and Android more or less fails in these areas. Games are horrid, though Angry Birds is always fun. Games just don't look finished or just look like the crappy 2005 Java versions on like a Moto RAZR. In fact, looking at my apps on my N1, almost all of them are apps just to make my phone run smoother or look better ie setCPU, LCD density changer, ASTRO, Ti Backup etc. That's not to say I don't like games, it's just that there's not too great of a collection when you compare to iOS or the upcoming games for WP7.

And if the HD7 has the G2's proc and an SLCD screen like the Desire HD, it will be even more amazing in my eyes. All I'd want is HSPA+, however, that part is MS's fault. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] diablos991:
The only concerns I have with the dell is the keyboard quality and thickness. I would have to hold the unit and play around with it first. I really hope that the Hd7 has the updated processor, but I really doubt it will.

All will be revealed soon though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Smokexz:
Same issue with me, I have loved Android for a while now, however WP7 looks so attractive, HSPA+ is not an issue because:

1. My area doesn't have HSPA+

2. T-Mobile states that all devices running standard 3g will also notice a significant improvement to their speeds as well, which is great as well

Really I made up my mind on the HD7, I saw the apps on the zune market and a lot of em weren't that great, however I know I have to wait... I see though that the WP7 marketplace has increased in apps, so I think I might just get the HD7, or try both devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ericc191:
I would go with the HD7. Try something new and the games are WP7 are fantastic.

It definitely has its shortcomings, but the most important ones are coming.

I have a GT-I9000 and I just got myself a new vibrant from tmobile yesterday. The guys at samsung really doeesn't make it easier on a customer to upgrade their phones, do they !??

After some tinkering, it seems I got the drivers working but the Kies mini sees it as unregistered device. I'm on the same boat as you are. If there is a froyo update coming tomorrow, then we should be receiving an upgrade for kies mini as well which should solve the problem. If not, then we'll need to go to the tmobile store and ask the guys there about this issue.

Most of the people here will be talking to you about rooting and odin and other stuff that you as a noob have no business doing. I've cooked my own roms and put in some custom roms as well in my I9000. Don't bother with all that. Just wait till the update comes out and then upgrade your phone.
