have you tried different SD card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] King Royalty:
I tried another card and it worked, but the card thats not working on is a 16GB SanDisk Class 2 that I paid $40 for! Is there anyway to fix this issue?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] t1h5ta3:
ouch! $40 for a class 2?

ive had luck in the past reviving " dead " sd cards bu useing a linux box, removing the partition and reformating from scratch.

its worked when windows wouldnt. on the plus side a linux box will report bad sectors etc that would otherwise be overlooked by mr bills silly os.

if all is good to go, your lucky.

on a side note, geting a fast (class 6) card will make a diferance on how well android runs.

hey guys I just wanted to know where do I begin? I want to create apps or even roms one day! I'm 16 and I want to be able to do this because I believe this is something I really want to do and I love android and would love to join the development of it. I don't care how long it takes, can someone just point me in the right direction? Thanks and any tips will be helpful.

[Droid 2 General] imaudi5000:
hey guys, im looking to upgrade the the D2 or D2G and wanted to know if there are any real world differences?

is the D2G processor noticeably faster/better?

is there anything different between the stock android OS?

comparable battery life?

overall impressions of the two?

thanks
[Droid 2 General] ZeroOveride:
Here is my opinion on your questions:

1.The processor is noticeably faster. On the stock Blur OS that it ships with I would average between 1600 and 1700 on quadrant and I would only get that on the reg D2 with overclocking

2. The only thing I noticed was the updated dialer. The one that is in the next DX update.

3. This is the con. Battery life is much lower than on the D2.

Except for the battery life, the D2G is a much better device.
[Droid 2 General] miketoasty:
The Droid 2 Global comes with a 1.2 ghz processor vs the 1 ghz processor in the original Droid 2. That would be why its faster and why it has a lower battery life.
[Droid 2 General] ZeroOveride:
I clock my D2G at 800mhz in SetCPU and it still feels faster than the regular D2 and the quadrant scores are about the same with the regular D2
[Droid 2 General] camus11:
Hi all, can anyone confirm that Milestone 2 makes hd videos while d2g and d2 only dvd?

If it is, it's only a software feature?

It's possible that d2g processor is the same of d2 but overclocked? From ZeroOveride benchmarks seems it isn't...
[Droid 2 General] ZeroOveride:
Don't quote me on this but I thought I had read somewhere that there was a difference in the processor and that it isn't overclocked. The reason being is that it has the HD video recording capabilities while the D2's processor does not.

I could be mistaken and can't exactly remember where I read it but I vaguely remember this.
[Droid 2 General] jrwaltb:
Battery life is important. The d 2 is sill very fast.
[Droid 2 General] camus11:
About my question regarding video recording resolution, look at this image picked up from Texas Instruments website: Droid2 cpu (3620) allows 720x480 videos while d2g and European Milestone2 (3630) allow HD video recording, so I think d2g limitation to 720x480 is a software limit that will be removed.

Standing to this tab d2g has the same Milestone2 cpu but factory overclocked.

What about 12MP camera resolution shown in the image?
[Droid 2 General] ZeroOveride:
My guess about the megapixel is that the lens in the camera is the limitation. While the processor is capable of processing the higher megapixel, the senor in the camera lens probably cannot.
[Droid 2 General] imaudi5000:
thanks for all the info guys. im tryin to do some reading about new ROMs and whatnot but what is all this stuff about rooting? i assume its something about getting into the 'root' of the OS and changing/unlocking some stuff. im currently using a Touchpro2 and am suprised at the different terminology lol

anyone care to explain this to a newb? :o
[Droid 2 General] Angdroid:
Just get 4zroot for all of your rooting needs. Root gives you super user permissions so you can do whatever you want.
[Droid 2 General] NiceGuysFinishLast:
I have read this as well. It makes sense, too.
[Droid 2 General] imaudi5000:
does anyone have issues with extremely short battery life and/or high temps while using the phone? iv seen a couple different websites with people reporting these issues. i expect the battery to be minimal with all the apps and data stuff but is it really unbearable? does it get better? how hot does ur phone get?
[Droid 2 General] Lbovill:
Managed to get ten to twelve hours out of mine with root, launcher pro, and set cpu. Doesn't get overly hot, but can warm up a bit.
[Droid 2 General] zse45tgb:
I recently switched from the original Droid to the Droid 2 Global. I saw a significant decrease in battery life.

And then I rooted and installed Fission 2.4. Battery life got even worse and there were a couple of times when heat was pretty much insane! (I decided to pull the battery for an hour to let things cool off.)

The latest Fission ROM (2.4.2) seems to have taken care of that and things are pretty smooth. Not quite as good as my original Droid, but the processor in the D2G is twice as fast, so I don't expect the same. The RAM is high enough that I've found I can underclock the CPU a bit and still get significantly better performance than the original Droid.

[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
may not be completely relevant, but I've eventually got a successful run of it on the G1

scores don't really matter. And it doesn't seem any bit faster, but then again I can't really tell since I haven't gotten it stable enough to test normal apps. The UI feels more smoother-ish, not quicker just less jumpy. *note i said "-ish", because there are no apps installed so obviously it's not gonna lag.

so far for me I have only gotten it to work on the first boot, and for some reason only when I don't flash gapps (and fyi, I'm using CM 6.1).

Hey Everyone .

Just found this App and was wondering if anyone has tried it ?

Looks pretty good actually . just dont want to be the first DHD user to try and brick the phone haha
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] dr.m0x:
Fine I'll do it then.

Edit: Didn't brick my phone :)

Childs play to remove too. Just another worthless security app.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] mero01:
Hahaha cheers :)

So not even worth installing ?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] dr.m0x:
Well your average thief might just scratch their head and give up on the phone but if they know someone who knows about android, such as one of many of the forum members here, they still get your phone. All they have to do is flash it back to stock.

The only thing these type of apps are good for, imo, is protecting your personal data. Even then there is no protection for the data on the sd card.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] than33:
Desire HD has built in anti theft service. Just go to htcsense.com and register. It is really complicated to remove this from phone
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] WernerW:
Have you ever tried htcsense.com? the locate system hardly works and the site is often down. Theft Aware works clean.

hint: to uninstall it, you first need to remove the device admin setting of theft aware in your phone settings. then it's just like any other app to uninstall
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] frosty_ice:
For everyone who knows a bit about the phone it would be child's play to remove the protection.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Dwire:
but if you can password protect the bootloader/recovery it is safe...

Anyway the mainstream user doesn't know about theft aware.

Most of the "thiefs" or lucky ones would do a hard reset.

And if you have a rooted phone, theft aware ist still on the phone.

And maybe they put another sim card in the phone and you got the phone number.

10 bucks is ok for a chance to get my 500 bucks mobile phone back.

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] vickyclewis:
This is really Good. I bought it and it works like a charm. I got Theft Aware, Smi Card Checker, Cerberus all together for added protection. I feel it is worth it when you spend so much for a Phone. Spending a mere 3% of the cost of your phone for these is definitely worth it.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Kthulhu_ESP:
I do not know why people answer post without any knowledge. Child play to remove it? :confused:

If you lock phone setting – the app cannot be installed

If the phone is root – hard reset does not remove the app, USB debug is unable, etc..

Of course, if you hack the password code, are able to unroot the phone, flash a stock rom, etc... you will remove this app. Childish stuff ;)

I do not have any connection with this app, I am just considering purchasing a security app and so far this is my favourite. Theft Aware may be not perfect but please tell me if you find any better (and cheaper).

If you need to root, there are lots of easy one click guides you could go find. My half baked manual root video uses a guide from Cyanogen's forum:

If you are already rooted, I recommend barnacle from market.

You may need to check "skip WPA supplicant" in settings.

If you specifically meant "android wifi tether", their home page is here:

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

If you are undecided about which tether you want, check out the barnacle developer's page, he had organized some good info about your options:

Also, if you still can't connect and can't see the AdHoc network from your computer, make sure your WiFi driver is updated. My Intel wireless card was v12.x something and I updated to v13.4. I went from not being able to pickup/see the AdHoc network to being able to detect it immediately and connect immediately. (posting this message through it right now.)

I wish I had been able to update my computer's wireless network driver yesterday when I tried. It's hard to reliably download a 35MB file via a 1-2 bar signal. I tried several times.

Anyway, I usually try by going to the Network Card manufacturer's site first and see if I can get an updated driver there. (In my case, directly to Intel). If you have a very obscure wireless network card, then you may have to go to the computer manufacturer's website instead to get updated drivers. Hope this helps someone save some time.
[Galaxy Tab General] dbregman:
I have had my Tmo Tab since the day after release, and I love it. I do have one question though for the assembled brain trust...

While I am fairly certain that the Tab does not support HSPA+ of the software called Tmo 4g. I feel I should be getting better data speeds on 3g. I just did a bunch of tests and I am averaging about 850k. This seems fairly slow to me (am I crazy) and I am wondering what others are seeing. I am in Northern California by the way.
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
I typically don't user the tmo connection but I turned it on and ran a test at mobilespeedtest.com and with the 1 mb test it says 7692kbps which is about the same I get on my n900. This is in an area with full bars of 3g in an hspa+ area. I know our tabs are not 4g compat but even 3g devices get as nice speed boost in these areas due to the new fiber lines on the backend
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
I've asked a few people and searched like crazy with no real answer so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm running Calk's HD rom and it's awesome. I would just prefer a 4 row app drawer as opposed to the 5 it comes with. Is there an easy way to change this? I haven't been able to locate the setting in the rosie.apk. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lopezpm:
What if you use adw launcher? You can change it from 3 to 8.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/adw-launcher/org.adw.launcher

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ericwgarza1:
You need to decompile your Rosie.apk and change the "5" value in the all_apps_view.xml (its actually titled something like that) to a "4". Then you will need to recompile and flash.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
Thanks so much. It looks like to do this the xml would need to be converted first or done with hex editing. Way beyond my skill. But I'm going to trying recompiling the apk using the all_apps_view.xml from a different rosie with a 4 app drawer. I'll post my results.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
That didn't work. Not sure the setting lives there. The rom I grabbed the all_apps_view.xml file from has an opaque app drawer, calk's has transparent. After compiling the rosie with the new xml file and rebooting, I still had a 5 row app drawer but the background was opaque.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] aamikam:
there are 3 changes to be made.... one is the one u were given already.

keep in mind that u MUST decompile cuz it changes things inside the resources.arsc file

the second one is inside values/integer.xml

change

<integer name="allprogram_grid_columns">5</integer>

to have the value 4 instead of 5.

and in values/dimens.xml change

<dimen name="all_program_grid_view_horizontal_spacing">1.0dip</dimen>

to have the value 6.0dip.

that should work.

good luck.

edit:

just saw u said u using the HD rom... i was referring to the a non HD rosie... so although it should still be the same thing, it might not be... so keep that in mind in case it wont work... but thats how u would do it for the regular Rosie.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
Ok, that's a little over my head considering I don't even see the xml files you're referring to. I'm only able to play with what I can see by unpacking the apk using simple methods. Changing the all_apps_view file changed the drawer background, which is undesired. If I simply swap out the the full rosie.apk from the other rom, I can achieve the 4 row drawer with the opaque background but I'm looking to retain the translucent. So, perhaps it's easier to start with the other rosie with the opaque background and modify that to have a translucent background? Can using the original all_apps_view accomplish this or is there an easier way?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] aamikam:
U wont see those xmls unless u decompile man... that's why I said u have to do it.

U using calk hd? Right?

Ill make u one real quick.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
Yeah I'm running calk's HD. Thanks man. I was just getting ready to try another frankenstein rosie.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] aamikam:
here u go... let me know how it worked.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DeathBySnuggles:
Absolutely perfect! Thank you so much. Donation sent. (well, sent before I knew it worked just for the effort but double bonus that it does!) Why can't sense be as configurable as lp or adw?

Thanks again.
