You're basically describing Dropbox. As long as you have a data connection you can access anything in the folder and view/download straight to your phone. I keep all my root stuff in Dropbox so I don't need to keep it on sd card. That way anything I need, I downoad, use, and delete. Plus, it allows me to search and download roms while at work and then when I get home they automatically update to my home computer for flashing.

Click the referral link in my sig and we both get an extra 500mb of space (I have an edu email address). You have to install the desktop application to get your referral credit though.

EDIT - REFERRAL LINK

Hey thank you for the replys so far. I do have drop box and I do love it! But I am looking for that one extra step at the end. What I don't like about drop box is I have to then manually download the files from it to my phone. Basically want once I connect to my home wifi it reaches out to my pc and syncs with a folder on it to a folder on my sd automatically. I don't mind if I have to setup a share or file server on my pc.

Post if you find a good app, I'm sure it's doable. Would probably operate much like RemoteDroid does for the mouse. Love that app!

I have kinda found what i was looking for in Android Manager Wifi. here is a link:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/android-manager-wifi/com.mobileaction.AmAgent

It has many options, one being able to select a folder on ur computer and one on your SD card for them to sync up automatically. Testing out to see how REALLY automated the whole process is. But none the less this is a great app for many things it seems. People should definitely check it out!
[Android Apps and Games] sherri:
Didn't Double Twist just implement that? Need the "pay" version ($.99), but it has something called Air Synch. Look into this and let me know if it is what you want.
[Android Apps and Games] yajinni:
I was under the impression it only works with music files but I'll definitely check it out
[Android Apps and Games] sherri:
Great app (I beta tested it....) but definitely not automatic.
[Android Apps and Games] yajinni:
Checked out Double Twist Air Sync and its not bad. But seems to only do music, videos, pics and playlist syncing. I need it to be able to do any kind of file/folder. But for multimedia people out there its something to check out.
[Android Apps and Games] AlliSherpa:
Syncables is a broader sync solution than Double Twist

I've read similar critiques of Double Twist. I prefer Syncables through and through - and it think that's more of what you're looking for. Syncables will sync any type of folder, media file, spreadsheet, email, and even browser bookmark. It also syncs between Macs and PCs and smartphones like Droid and BlackBerries.

It has a wider suite of sync/backup/share products than the more niche Double Twist product...oh, and it has wireless sync capability using WiFi, as well.

I am actually writing an app that does exactly what you want. It's not done but the functionality is there to sync a folder (with no PC client needed). If you want to help me test it you can PM me with an email address to send you the APK.

Since it took me over an hour to finally get this to work, I figured I would make a new post. (That's a long time to just change a 0 to a 1:))

If you want to use your stock Rom but are rooted then this is the easiest way to be able to install non-market apps. I take no credit for this as it is from a post from Attn1 (thanks!).

HTC Sync does not have a choice to add apps in the latest version that I have, I don't know if did before, but I could not get it working. We can all thank AT&T

for this!

Put your phone into Recovery mode.

Goto advanced>mount system and mount data.

Make sure your phone is recognized by adb devices in

your Terminal program.

If not you can use adb kill-server then adb start-server

If you're using linux then you need to precede the adb command

with ./adb

Follow the directions below and you will installing non-market apps

in no time.

NOTE: You MUST have root access in order for this to work

sqlite3 is included in the Android SDK tools, so this would be the best way:

* COMMON

* Enable USB debugging (settings > applications > development > USB Debugging)

* adb remount

* adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db

Linux/OS X

* echo "update secure set value = 1 where name = 'install_non_market_apps';"|./sqlite3 settings.db

WINDOWS

* echo update secure set value = 1 where name = 'install_non_market_apps';|sqlite3 settings.db

COMMON

* adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

* Reboot phone and sideloading works. (thanks fluffyarmada)
[HTC Aria General] camillemarie:
Yes!!! Thank you, this worked! Rooted, stock HTC Aria 2.2.2.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futuristicstyles:
Make sure your sd card is partitioned then download darktremor a2sd. I flash it after a clean install then go to the market download terminal emulator its free. Then type "su" then hit enter it should ask for superuser permission accept then type "a2sd cachepart" then it will do the rest and automatically reboot and your good

Please help me with this...so lost.

Rom: Myn's Warm 2.2 RLS4

Kernel: "2.6.32.15-netarchy-toastmod-4.9.1-cfs natas@64bit-evil #8"

I've tried this:

This is how I got my apps2sd to work.

1. BACK UP YOUR MEMORY CARD TO YOUR COMPUTER

2. Using AmonRa's recovery

3. Boot into recovery mode

4. Select Partition SD card

4. Set: 512 Ext: 1024

5. let it finish select SD:ext2 to ext3

6. go back to usb-ms toggle

7. Put all your stuff back on your memory card now

8. I went to Wipe data/factory reset then wipe cache, wipe Dalvik-cache and finally wipe SD:ext partition.

9. Then flash the rom and let it boot all the way up

10. Reboot into Recovery

11. I flashed kings bfs #9 and Baked #6 and both work (may work with stock kernal, but have not tryied it)

12. reboot

13. connect usb to phone and using adb type (IF ADB IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU USE THE INSTRUCTION BELOW IN RED)

Code:

adb shell

then

Code:

/system/bin/a2sd check

you should see some properties

scroll down and look to see if dalvik cache is run on sd card if not type

Code:

a2sd cachesd

the phone will reboot by itself

If phone is stuck in boot screen, kernal may not support apps2sd, try to install a other kernal.

once again using adb type

Code:

adb shell

then

Code:

/system/bin/a2sd check

make sure dalvik cache is now running on sdcard

also check to see if Zipalign is set to boot if not type

Code:

a2sd zipalign

And I've tried this:

1. Download the program from the previous post.

2. Determine if you have setup your sd card with an ext partition

if you have setup your sd card already (existing users of a2sd...any version):

A. Copy the program to your sd card.

b. Reboot into recovery

if you have not setup your sd card (for those new to a2sd):

A. backup your sd card to your computer. can't stress this enough, as partitioning will wipe the entire card.

B. Reboot into recovery

c. In android system recovery, select partition sdcard

d. In the partition sdcard menu, select partition sd

e. Follow the instructions on the phone to partition your sd card. You can optionally set a swap file while you are partitioning your sd card.

F. In the partition sdcard menu, select sd:ext2 to ext3. Follow the instructions on the screen.

G. only perform this step if you want ext4 and your rom supports it: in the partition sdcard menu, select sd:ext3 to ext4. Follow the instructions on the sdcard.

h. Press the back button on the phone to go back to the main menu.

I. Put the a2sd file on the sd card (and all your other files you backed up earlier) by selecting usb-ms toggle and transfer the files to your computer.

3. In recovery, select flash zip from sdcard.

4. In flash zip from sdcard, select the a2sd package file you downloaded earlier. Press home to flash.

5. Reboot phone.

And it still shows my apps are taking up internal storage. What the hell am I doing wrong? Please help me out with this, it's starting to drive me nuts. I can't have all my games on my phone, let alone market apps. Please and thankyou.

Hi,

I have a new htc desire hd, and Ive been reading up on ROMS and rooting your phone.

Unfortunately Ive found very little detail on it for my phone (plenty of references to the htc desire, just not the desire hd)

So Im beginning to wonder, are there any roms for the desire HD?

I keep seeing everyone talking about miui.

and Ive seen something about a visionary app to temporarily give root access, but apparently this is no good for permanent ROMS.

So has anyone successfully flashed the desire HD yet?

can anyone point me in the right direction for some guidance?

There is a thread at G2 forum about it and I did his method on my Mytouch 4g and it seems that the internet speed is still being throttled after.

What I did:

1) I install update-Ice-Glacier-v1.1.1-Themed_signed

2) I turn on data roaming and download Phone info and set to WDCMA only

3) I modify the service.jar successfully and install it into my phone

I get a nice 6Mbits/sec a few minutes but afterwards the speed goes down to 0.02Mbits/sec again.

Anyone has an idea how to defeat throttling for this phone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyungjae:
I think this belongs in the Q&A forum, but I don't think there is anyway around it. From what I understand, they control it on their end. As a person that goes well beyond the 5GB cap per month, they seem to throttle you down for a day then things return back to normal speeds. Others have reported that this has happened to them as well.

If there is something we could do on our end that would be great, but T-Mobile does reserve the right to terminate our data plans if we constantly violate the terms and conditions. There was one person who regularly hits around 30GB a month. If they do cancel data plans, I bet he'd be the first to know.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypysmoker:
Aside from going into tmobile corporate and changing it, theres nothing any rom changes are going to do unless you can change your phone number, IMEI numbers.......

If it could be done, it would have been. And they are enforcing it more now with the added tethering plans. 5gb on a phone is a lot, if your using it for tethering, then they have the right to charge you more to keep the network open for others
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
Even if you pay for tethering it's still cheaper than home internet, and once HSPA+ is fully rolled out it might even be faster to boot!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyungjae:
If you pay for tethering, will it be truly unlimited?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsbbq:
Nothing is truly unlimited. If you consume to many resources in which it effects others you could be limited.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyungjae:
I suppose I should be more clear. My question is does the 5GB cap/throttle down apply to those who pay for tethering?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil1p:
Yes, it applies to every TMobile's data plans :(
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenpoAP:
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Q&A Please!!!!!!!!!!!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
I'm not sure this is true, otherwise what would be the point of paying for the plan?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypysmoker:
Because since they have the different data plans now like 250mb etc..., the tehtering is just an added choice.

But yes, on all "unlimited" plans there is a 5gb cap, and then its their choice by your area and usage to throttle you or not.

I have actually gotten up to 250gb before the tiered plans came out before I was throttled. I was in an area that didnt have internet access and had to tether my pc and Ps3. Was interesting to explain in store why my use was so high lol
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyungjae:
and I thought 30GB's a month was high.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypysmoker:
lol.. I was even told I wasnt the worst.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
HA!

I guess the "tethering plan" only applies if you're using one of T-mobile's tethering apps, but I don't know why any of us would do that. All you need is PDANet and then they can't tell the difference between data usage and "data usage."

Even the stock android usb tether is available. I fail to understand what exactly we are paying for, if not a higher cap.

now i get HSPA+ at home (not that that matters too much with a 30/10 pipe) and my data usage has been higher, ive been using my phone to stream HD movies and TV from the house to wherever the hell i happen to be (watch movies and tv at work???? nawwww, why would i do that?)

oh and the dealer lines/ employee lines... Do not count bud sorry!

really if you think about it why would you throttle a company phone... it is more than likely set up as a display phone .... would you want your soon to be NEW customers to pick up a bright and shiny new super internet phone and get .02Mbps ...? no

A browser's user agent string is mostly arbitrary and changing it is nothing like wholesale theft of service along the lines of a forged SIM card.

I would liken this to the days when cable modem ISPs would only allow one computer to be connected so people would just throw a nat box front of their home network. Technically different but conceptually the same. Might be violating the carrier's terms but I doubt it's illegal in the government sense unless there's some good ole boy fcc regulations in place targeting it.

And before you start banging the "tether drum" my neighbors are dumb enough to leave their Wi-Fi open so i just bum off theirs.

Correct. t-mobile has played their cards and played them well. Basically the only thing our phones are good for post throttling is e-mail and polled social services like Tweetdeck/Facepage/mybook/twitter that type of stuff.

All i can say is am glad they are throttling back instead of charging i have a buddy on ATT w/ a Captive and they get charge for going over the limit.... i'd rather get the skivvies then get charged.
