[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] keil.:

Just for the case i make some " mistakes " on the Android-System after a few day´s ,

and it will no longer work and there is no way to Connect to an PC to flash a new one.

So the Question how about the Recovery Option´s ( Hardreset )
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] keil.:

I heard Hotmail now support Activesync. Have anyone tried using the P500 to synchronize with Hotmail?

I tried but it keeps trying to use POP3 of Hotmail Plus account.

Same here. Infaat even yahoo configuration fails for me
[Optimus One, P500, V General] a008yc:
Don't think Yahoo supports Activesync. There is a Yahoo app you can use to synchronize Yahoo mail like GMail app. I couldn't find an official Hotmail app, so Activesync is my only option.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nonobis35:
[RESOLVED] - How to use Hotmail Activesync with the P500?

This is actually a few months Hotmail is available in push.

To configure:

1 / Open the email client (not gmail), click on the menu, then Accounts

2 / click on the menu, then add an account

3 / Select MS Exchange and enter your Hotmail address and password, then click Next

4 / In the first field to your Hotmail address in the second password and the server field put: m.hotmail.com (even if your address is msn.com, hotmail.fr, ...)

5 / tick both boxes below and then click Next

6 / Wait for the verification of parameters and then choose the options you want, click Next

7 / Enter a name for the account and then click OK

8 / That's all, enjoy!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] AmselFR25:
For me it doesn't sets automatically Activesync when i enter my Hotmail address.

On step 3/ you should select Others instead of MS Exchange, then you enter your address and password, and eventually don't click "Next" but Manual Configuration, then you can select MS Exchange and set the server to m.hotmail.com
[Optimus One, P500, V General] a008yc:
Thanks guys.

To my surprise, POP3/IMAP works on my free Hotmail account but Activesync is so much better.

Does Yahoo support activesync? I don't like the Yahoo Mail App from the Market.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillaxx:
Hello,

Just wondering if anyone else has had same problem i'm having right now. When opening Mail(not gmail) i get the following message:

the application Mail(proces com.htc.android.mail) has suddenly stopped. Please try again.

I keep on trying but get same message every time. Restarting phone does not help. Don't want to do a hard reset because then i will lose data/apps...... Anyone know a sollution? I've deinstalled any apps that i installed between when Mail was and was'nt working. I have a stock DHD(dutch). Not rooted yet :-)

My native language is dutch so the "error" message might be different on WWE phones. Sorry for any mistakes in the message.

Happy new year
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aamir.Badat:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillaxx:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aamir.Badat:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillaxx:
I dont have a different radio installed, everything is Stock from HTC. Tryed to set up account again (and deleting old stuff) but get different error:confused:. Getting frustrated:mad:. Thinking of doing a hard reset. Any backup programs i should install before reset?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] preacher65:
Just a thought, have you tried settings, applications, manage applications, mail, clear data and clear cache? I had a similar problem with gmail app and that cured it.

Swyped from my Desire HD using XDA App
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillaxx:
Preacher65, thanks for the tip. But that did not solve the problem. When i add an exchange account(because with previous procedure the account has been deleted) i can complete every step except the last one. Then i get a error saying something like setup was not succesfull, try again later.

I can see the sync item appearing in the taskbar though? I'm out of ideas?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] preacher65:
Sorry it didn't work. I don't use Exchange on this phone so out of ideas, really. :(

To answer your earlier question, though, you can use apps like Titanium Backup or MyBackup Pro to backup any non-stock apps and data to your SD card, then if you wipe you can restore them quite easily and quickly.

Or if you have Auto-sync on, and "Backup my settings" and "Automatically Restore" ticked in the Settings/Privacy option, Android will re-download all your Market apps automatically. It saves your settings to your Google account and uses that data to restore your apps after a wipe. I think it restores app data too, not sure though as I only used it once - I use Titanium now as it's much quicker.

Hope that helps.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillaxx:
Thanks a million, Wil try to use one of the above apps and do a full factory reset.

I have a Barnes & Noble Nook Color, a Viewsonic G Tablet and the best of the best...................MY ELOCITY A7.....

I love my nook color so I am using my Elocity as a part time Ereader amongst other things. I have the Nook App on my Elocity and for the most part it works rather well. Is there anyway to copy the Nook Color experience onto the Elocity. I like the way the Nook Color has the bookshelves and would like to get that ported over to my elocity. Can anyone steer me in the proper direction. I have over 200 E-Books purchased from Barnes & Noble on my Nook Color and I want to get them on my Elocity so I can give the Nook Color to my Wife. Is there anyway to duplicate the Nook Experience on my Elocity A7.

[A7 General] alynch75:

I didnt think my thread would get hi jacked

Can we please stay on topic. If youd fine a search there are several threads comparing the viewsonic g tablegb... the nook and the elocity.

thanks not what i was lookin for

[A7 General] DroidxRage:
I got what you're saying...

Is the nook rooted? you could try to titanium backup the application on the nook, transfer the file and then reinstall it onto your a7 with titanium backup.

just thinking out loud, not sure of the actual feasibility.
[A7 General] alynch75:
Didn't work

Tried the suggestion above and it did not work. When I copy the back up files over with Titanium they are alled lined out when I try to restore. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If not guess I'm off to get another Nook Color unless I can find a way to get that Shelves and Library type interface.

Can anyone assist me with this?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ambious:
Ok, so there are all these Android guides out there intended for 'native' android devices, that tell you to 'boot to recovery' to install something.

Up until now with SD/RAM builds we couldn't do that, so we had to improvise (preboot dirs, ADB, whatever).

Now that we have NAND, will it be possible to follow those guides to the letter? Do we have a 'recovery mode'? Can we use ROM Manager etc?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
With all of the really good roms now a days...that is..

1) Rooting...doing a back up of the stock rom..and then using that backup to return to stock without having to flash through Odin?

I'm guessing here...but..wouldn't you have to have disable any lag fix..going back to rfs..disable any voodoo..changing any oc/uc settings to stock..prior to doing this ?

2) Pulling a copy of the entire EFS folder from stock to your PC before doing any flashing new roms and then prior to un-rooting dropping it back in with root explorer...Won't this do the same thing without having to use a terminal or hex editor to have the original imei # and product code #? If #1 is a complete copy..would #2 be even needed ?

Just looking for a easy way to do this on a brand new phone

Thanks

Mac
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mod777:
1) You should basically be doing this everytime you flash a new rom. I've flashed my cappy probly 50 times and everytime except once I went back to stock first. 0 issues -- the 1 time I didn't have a pc at hand and had to disable the lagfix then flash rom. But. going back to stock with Odin3 1 click is easy as long as you can get into download mode. Make sure you can get into dload mode before even attempting to flash a rom.

You only have to disable lagfix if you are not going back to stock prior to flashing a new rom (don't ever flash a rom over another rom without first disabling the lagfix or going back to stock).

2) I never backup my sdcard when flashing rom or master clear (I'm lazy I guess and don't want to wait for the files to transfer). I also keep update.zip as the clockwork recovery update.zip file. So after going back to stock, all I have to do is go into stock recovery and reinstall packages to install clockwork recovery, then I can flash the new rom and any add ons.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
I guess I am wording this wrong...I know how to flash..and I know how to odin back...but I was curious if I could eliminate doing some of that by just using the back up of the stock rom that is rooted..I don't think that can be done with out flashing stock via Odin first (because of the kernels if not using a Captivate kernel )...but if you are using one... I haven't read anything about...cause I really don't know..

I am trying to see if all the EFS files are replaced with the correct #s without having to do and terminal work or use a hex editor..once the back up from Rom manager is put back on and used..Just trying to make a real easy check list about it..

Truly curious here.

I flashed one of the new NAND Android builds just as soon as they came out, riding the wave of jubilation and unbridled enthusiasm over ditching Windows Mobile. But I live in Germany, meaning my HD2 contains half of the internal storage of its American counterparts.

After flashing a NAND Android Rom, the phone is left with a paltry 100 MB or so of free space. When it comes to installing apps, some of them CANNOT be prevented from finding their way to the internal memory, try as you might to keep them off.

No matter what I tried, I found my internal memory depleted, immediately, with a good number of apps still to install, but no room left to install them.

Are Europeans left simply hanging in the breeze on this one?

All commentary appreciated. Enjoy your New Years celebrations. :cool:

a few months ago a bunch of kernals supported ext partitions. this is make a comeback. You will partition your sdcard with lets say 1gb ext partition and the rest will be fat.

untill you get 1 text or mms to many and it says, low memory.

even if you have just about managed to squeez it all on at the moment, as you start using the apps and caches are created and messages are sent to and fro you will soon run outta the last 20mb too.

I always used to install all my apps to the nand memory (my 1024mb data.img of course !!) In order to keep as clean as possible my sdcard, indeed, all my data and apps files were stored in my data.img.

It initially leaves a massive room in the internal storage and since it's Cyanogen Mod, go to settings>CyanogenMod Settings>Application Settings and tick Allow application moving.

This essentially force moves every application to the SD while programs like App2SD cannot move all apps.

Get it now.

Ok I'm using Clockwork recovery 3.0 and I can't flash ROM's. Here's the story in short:

-Opened ROM Manager and it said there was a new update to the recovery.

-Downloaded update to recovery and went into Download ROM so I could download Myn's Latest.

-After it downloaded I booted into recovery, factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik and booted the phone back up.

-Opened ROM Manager and installed ROM and chose option to wipe dalvik and cache.

-Phone booted up and attempted to flash but it came back with an error.

-Went to the link from my phone and manually downloaded the ROM.

-Booted into recovery and tried to install ROM and it did it successfully but instead of booting into new ROM it booted into my previous one.

-Opened ROM Manager, installed RA recovery, placed .zip on the root of my SD card and booted into recovery.

-Once in RA recovery tried to install .zip of Myn's Rom and it installs successful but it doesn't boot into the new ROM, only the previous one.

For now I just did a nand restore of my old ROM but I have a feeling that the new Clockwork screwed something up. Any ideas?
