[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
So I upgraded to one of the DK17 ROMs with the DK17 modem. Everything is working great! Until I tried to put in my work's exchange settings. I was greeted with this security policy thing of like 15 items. Umm...no thanks! I paid for this phone, I pay the bill! I never had this issue on 2.1, not even on stock 2.1. Googling around I find this is a new 2.2 thing.

Is there a way around this? I found an Email.apk in the EVO section here at XDA but it wouldn't install. I would like to read my email on my phone but I'm not going to agree on all the non-sense they want to enforce.

Here's a few of them:

Delete All Data (Factory Reset)

Reset Password

Limit passwords

Auto-lock

Control attachments

Require ManualSync when Roaming (HUH?!?)

Allow POP IMAP EMAIL (going to be able to control my other email!?)

Enable or disable storage card

Enable or disable camera

Enable or disable wifi

Enable or disable text messaging

Enable or disable web browser

Enable or disable Internet Sharing

Enable or disable bluetooth

Require SD Card encryption

And I skipped some of the stupid ones... sheesh! No thanks on allowing those.

Anyone have a way around this? I know there was a Lockpicker program for 2.1 but this is 2.2.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
My guess is that this is enforced off of BlackBerry policy. Android 2.1 didn't really have a lot to do with Active Sync security until FroYo. I would go get K9 Mail in the market, its free and it is based off AOSPs mail client (at least it initially was, they may be so far out of sync now its ridiculous.) But I love K9 for my mail - given its Zimbra and Not MX.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
Played with K9 Mail...and all the possible settings I could try for exchange but it won't pull down my mail. Oh well... I'll just have to live without my work email on my phone.

Touchdown is the only other thing I could suggest.
[HD2 General] explicitsoundz1984:
Hi all,

I seem to be experiancing intermittent problems with my HTC HD2 backlight/screen. When on external power with setting's "Dim after 1 min" and "turn off device after 2 Mins" the phone sometimes works as it should, other times the backlight only dims and the screen does not shut off. Real nuisence when receiving missed call's at night as the dimmed backlight stays on most of the times.

Its been back to HTC twice for repair and it seems to be coming back with the same problem after using it for a little while. On both occasions they have replaced the motherboard even though the fault sheet on the last repair said Faulty backlight. I phoned them up and the operative said the motherboard was replaced. Unless they got confused with the first repair.

However i have come across this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=561832 "Post 10" which has the perfect mod for the registry, this is however aimed towards SE xperia X1 users, but has reference to it also being a HTC problem.

I have tried the following registry edit "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\Timeouts\ACUserIdle: 120"

and it works perfectly just as the device should, the screen dims after 1 min and screen goes off after 2mins. Here comes the problem though, the edited registry values seem to return to there default of "0" when the device is reset or after a prolonged period of time. I am using Resco Registry to carry out the editing.

Is there a way i can get the HTC HD2 to remember/save this registry edit so that when the phone is "soft reset" it does not revert the above key back to Default I thought the registry edit is saved untill a "hard rest" is carried out.

Cheers
[HD2 General] explicitsoundz1984:
I would of thought that someone out of the 72 people that have viewed this thread would of been able to help, maybe im wrong. Im sure this is a common problem, unless im the only one with this bizzare problem. I have tried looking at other threads and none seem to bare the same patterns. Please help me out guyz.
[HD2 General] Archer:
Have a look at Mortscript. It's a scripting tool that allows you to create small text files that run simple commands on your device. You could create one to set the registry value as needed and place it in \Windows\Startup so it runs when you start your phone.
[HD2 General] eldustman:
Please! Please! Does anyone have a fix for this? I am in the same boat as the OP. The registry trick works but reverts back after reboot. I hate having to leave the backlight on when my HD2 is connected to the PC. Plus if you press the red button it disconnects from the PC. Hookers & Beer for the man who finds a fix!
[HD2 General] Archer:
Errr.... my post was an answer.
[HD2 General] explicitsoundz1984:
Thank you johncmolyneux, i will look into the mortscript program, You reckon it will be hard to write a program for this? i am very suprised that other members on this forum have not come across this problem.
[HD2 General] Archer:
From what I've seen of Mortscript, it should be pretty simple to do what you want. I've seen many examples around the forums and it was obviously built with ease of use in mind. Just do some searching and I know you'll find what you need.

Good luck mate :)
[EVO 4G General] robotrabbit:
I rooted my evo back when I first got it but never removed any bloatware. I have finally decided to remove it and I have read in a few places how to, but I am having a difficult time figure out how to access the command line that everyone's instructions call for. Is this command screen on the phone in recovery some where or do I need an app on my computer for it?
[TG01 General] HTC Tytn user 188:
Hi everybody! Today i got Toshiba TG01. I bought it used. Everything else is working nice but it has sometimes that "rainbow" problem on the screen. This device is just 4 month old and bought from orange but i live in finland. Im sure the warranty is still on and this problem should be problem which warranty repair (correct if im wrong) so where i need to sent e-mail to get something information about this?
[TG01 General] ftj3kf3:
Maybe you should describe what the rainbow problem is because i never heard about that.;)

http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/personal/ is the Homepage from Orange.Just look a little bit and you should find help ;)
[TG01 General] drupad2drupad:
Do you mean something like this on your screen?

If yes, I bet you got a defected phone (as it was used prior) - Best bet is get it replaced if covered by warranty - however you will need all the documentations at hand.
[Android Apps and Games] KCRic:
I got a little bored at work today and edited the wifi tether app. For those running Cyanogen roms it will go really well. It's not 100% complete, still a few minor things I want to change and a slight off center that I need to fix but like I said, it's minor. After the holiday I'll finish it up. Hope you enjoy it, suggestions are welcome but I'm fairly new to Photoshop and GIMP so I'll do my best.

This is 2.0.5 pre 14 (the latest) and it should work with any phone that already runs it.
[Android Apps and Games] agentg1001:
It doesn't want to install. After pressing install it says "Application not installed". Strange because this one (same version) installs correctly, its just not themed http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...name=wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre14.apk&can=2&q=
[Android Apps and Games] heybobitsme:
Looks good!
[Android Apps and Games] KCRic:
That is strange, it installed on mine. Just out of curiosity, where is your current tether app installed to, /system/app or /data/app? For some reason when I tried to install it while booted (to /data/app) it did the same thing. I had to put it in my rom and reflash it, kind of the long way around. Maybe adb push and adb install would work also. If not, I'll pack it in a zip for you show you can flash it in recovery if you want.
[Android Apps and Games] matiu:
Having the same installation problem...

Tried also with adb, seems to be an error with certificate, hoping you will make a flashable .zip ;)
[Android Apps and Games] matiu:
Ok, I've modified by me these app importing the themed file in the "standard" thether app, signing, and now it works. ;)

Here the link: http://www.multiupload.com/CVOKCNN919
[Android Apps and Games] KCRic:
Thanks for doing that. When I finish it and update it I'll make sure to resign it just in case. I'll DL it and update the post unless you want me to just put the link up that you have in your post.

EDIT: I just resigned mine (and renamed it), it should work now. If not use the link matiu posted.

Thanks heybobitsme, I'm new to photo editing but figured I should share what I manage to get done. If you have any suggestions, fire away.
[Android Apps and Games] agentg1001:
Thanks it now works! And thanks KCRic for the themed app, it looks great :D
[Android Apps and Games] matiu:
Ok, now it works correctly. ;)

XDA ! If I were to buy a new phone, well actually PDA tbh, which one would it be?

I was thinking about Android 2.2, screen >= 3.7 inches preferebly with multi-touch capability, GPS, 1ghz CPU...

So generally I was thinking about Galaxy S, Nexus One...

What do you think XDA?
[General Topics] jagpoag:
I think you should use google and youtube to get both detailed specs and then VIDEOS of all the phone you are interested in. We can give you our opinion all day long but it doesn't mean crap at the end of the day. YOU are going to be using the phone, not us.

This is a personal device we are talking about man. When it's all said and done, it's YOUR personal preference as to what you get. Do the research, buy what YOU want and you will be happy with it. :)
[General Topics] spiderx_mm:
My personal choices would be HTC Desire Z or HTC Desire HD.
[General Topics] suhas_sm:
Right.

@Travikk

Almost all high-end phones have those specs u mentioned up there. My suggestion would be check out the hw/sw issues of each of the handset you have in mind. Decide whether you can do away with those issues. Some issues could be too critical for you to be ignored but not for someone else.
[General Topics] travikk:
Thanks for your answer. Well yes, it is PERSONAL so it's going to be used by me, however what I'd like to get is maybe some experience from users using either of NO or GS. Nevertheless, you are right - it is personal choice more-less.

Yes, as I said I think I narrowed it down to 2 models, but maybe thtere is a phone which I didn't even consider in the first place; that's why I'd like to get some opinions from you guys ;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] creusset:
so i have the original mytouch3g and i have the cyanogen6 rom on it and for some reason it lags A LOT. i dont have widgets on my pages and i have very few apps. whats wrong with my mytouch?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] johnson8cyl:
Man. You would have to list your hboot info and all your settings, particularly the performance based settings, to get any kind of info that would be helpful.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Caticorn:
What version of CM6 do you have, and what kernel? CM6 wasn't spectacularly fast (compared to TMUS, ASOP Test2, etc) until I started using nightlies from around a month before CM6.1RC1 came out, and now I'm using CM6.1 with no swap, no overclock, no apps2SD, and it's the fastest my phone's ever been (oddly enough the last time my phone was nearly this nifty was a previous version of CM when it was better to have all these things turned on).

For starters though, check your settings in Settings > Cyanogenmod > Performance. Turn surface dithering off, use a small (if not smallest) vm heap size, lock home in memory (if you have lag going back to the home screen). YMMV with compcache; I have it turned off.

Secondly, go through the rest of your phone's settings, top to bottom through every option, and disable everything you don't need...window animations, GUI elements, ADW extras, et cetera. If you want a bit of luxury you can go back and make a little compromise here and there - for instance I really like having window animations but CM6.1 can spare the performance hit.

Also, it may be one of the more complex mods you can do to your phone, and potentially dangerous if you do it wrong, but the new radio/SPL that gives you 14ish MB of RAM was a serious upgrade as well.

[Desire HD General] zakprior:
Hi All,

I got my Desire HD about 3 weeks ago and have been loving it. However I am now getting a reoccurring problem of Lag. Sometimes its minimal, some times its a large amount.

If I leave my phone on for a considerable amount of time I am finding that I always have to restart to get rid of the lag.

I never really have that many apps open, but sometimes even when playing something like doodle jump its starts to lag.

I am no expert on how phones work, but a couple of friends have iPhones and if you look in their task manager sometimes about 30 apps are left open with no real effect on the phones lag, where as the HD with a better CPU and RAM does not seem to be able to handle it. I decided to go with the Desire HD over the iPhone as i love google, but at the moment the lag is causing laughter amongst my friends who got the iPhone 4!

The only things that I ever really leave running are HTC sense, Facebook for sense (for contacts), Calendar and messaging and GMail. Surely this cannot cause such a hideous amount of lag.

When i look at running services its says "other:77MB in 4 Avail:316+155MB in 30" What does this mean?

I also have android task manager and at the top it says "Available Memory 323M" Is this right? Surely it should be pushing 764? (this is when jsut booted and everything then closed)

Also jsut a quick question, when you pull down the drop down settings bar from the home page, under your carriers names, there is a lsit of apps which you can scroll right on, what are these? Open apps? Recently opened apps?

Also, how do you stop apps starting on start up?

Also, i select kill apps on task manager and then i look 10 mins later and they are running again, why is this?
[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
OMG!!! first thing with android 2.2 DONT! use a task killer tasks will just restart

first there DHD and many other phones have a bit of a lag bug that is caused by a rouge /INIT process to prevent this enable USB debuging in the settings for somereason this fixes it.

the list of apps below the carrier in the notifaction pane is just the recently open application the same list that you would get by pressing and holding the home button these applications are not running.

also ignore the ram thing in the task manager yes the desire has 768mb of ram however a portion of that is locked for i think the fast boot feature (because it works by storing the os and its current state into the ram for fast startup later ~130mb )

also the launcher is also taking up ram when the phone is on

ie...dont worry about it because when android needs more ram it will clear it out for other higher priority applications

but yeah dont use task killers, enable usb debugging stop going crazy over 'missing' ram

i suggest you read about how android multi tasks to you can find it over on the offical android guide website.
[Desire HD General] funnyclub:
I have usb debugging on and I still get bad lag the odd time.
[Desire HD General] torseni5t:
Yeah same here, happened today, quite badly too.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
One guaranteed method to get rid of the lag.

PermRoot > Flash Clockwork Mod > Flash an OverClock Kernel > Overclock with SetCPU setting "Performance" as the governor.

Say goodbye to lag, it won't bother you again.

Full guides can be found in the DHD > Android Development section.
[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
try using another launcher, i used to find sense used to be a little laggy at times on my legend but other launchers like launcher pro were fine.

also if you mean lag when typing on the htc ime keyboard disable the haptic feedback vibration for somereason they make it lag out
[Desire HD General] LittleMerc:
For me I have USB debugger on, but when I am playing a game, for example Angry Bird, initially it is smooth, but for a while, there will be a lag... Then it will return to normal... I believe its when my syncing occur that causes the lag...
[Desire HD General] JoeBlogs:
Would turning off quick/fastboot give us more ram ?
[Desire HD General] Andy:
The DHD has a shed load of RAM, I wouldn't imagine that leaving Fast Boot on, or turning it off would affect performance or lag directly.
[Desire HD General] JoeBlogs:
Cool, I wonder how much RAM Fastboot uses :rolleyes:?
[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
probably that reserved 136mb ?, actually i think if fast boot is disabled it would make no differnce i think that htc have a bit reserved for the os and sense so that all core systems are always loaded.
[Desire HD General] kompolaga:
How do I enable USB debuging exactly? I am in the settings of The phone but can't find usb debugging :s

Ram usage

How much ram do you usually have free in daily use?

I'm experiencing Sense reboots when ram gets down <100Mb and it's kinda frustrating waiting the homescreens to bootup again and again.

I'm rooted and using LeeDroids HD 3.0.1 GB ROM and hes custom kernel.
[Desire HD General] ErOR22:
Flash CM7, all of your lag and memory problems will go away :-D

I'm using stock frequency and I never see lag and memory for me doesn't go over 50% unless playing a game or such.

But to have to say goodbuy to sense which is definitely worth it.
[Desire HD General] Mash23:
Theres the thing that I like the Sense and don't really want to give it up but I was wondering if other Sense users had similar experiences and how did they manage those :)
