The SD card market @ eBay as always been a source for problems. Mainly, when the manufacturer builds the cards, every chip is tested. If good.. sent to retailers.

If bad... send to trash bin. Yet not all... some find their way into ebay and others.

To make matters worse, after A-Guy as been screwed, he has to options:

Take it like a man and face it, I've been screwed.

Try to sell it to another guy... like myself.

Rule of thumb: If its too good to be true, it probably isn't.

There are websites to explain how to detect fake cards. One of the most tragic, is the Sony MS.

On this case, the ... first sectors (must have a right name) are tampered. When you connect, you get a 16GB card. (in my case).

When i tried to fill it in, after the 4th GB... errors. The stick must have 4 chips of 4gb, and only one made it.

After running a special tool (write byte after byte, see where errors begin, correct card info at sect 0 to show real size)

Here is the result of my Kingston 4Gb class 4 microSDHC card testes by Crystal Disk Mark 3.0.1):

Sequential Read : 16.162 MB/s

Sequential Write : 3.310 MB/s

But, some days before, it was:

Sequential Read : 16.420 MB/s

Sequential Write : 6.109 MB/s

Are there any problems with my card?:confused:

I've just bought it for more than 2 weeks. I'm going to sell it away. Should I buy a Sandisk 2Gb one? My phone (SE Elm) seems not to be compatible with the 4Gb card, the 4Gb card was usually disconnected from my phone when I turned on it every morning.:mad: But I've tried an 2Gb one and the 2Gb has'nt been this problem up to now.

Please help me, thanks.
[Desire HD Accessories] ghostofcain:
Sounds like your phone is not compatible with SDHC, cards up to 2Gb normally conform to SD standard, but above that size are SDHC. Back in the day there where some 4GB which where produced before SDHC standard was ratified that are actually SD not SDHC but support for them is very patchy and I suspect getting hold of one would be next to impossible.
[Desire HD Accessories] Escape_2008v8:
In the official website of Sony Ericsson, it says that my phone supports both micro SD and micro SDHC card, up to 16GB. I'm going to borrow a 4Gb or 8Gb one to try as soon as possible.:confused:

But of course I paid almost double of what you paid (few months ago)
[Desire HD Accessories] XA-R01:
You mean sandisk 8gb class 6?

Because sandisk only produce 16gb and 32gb microsd with class 2 rating.

PS: i wonder why sandisk doesnt produce 16gb and 32gb class 10 microsd cards. Im sure they have the capability to do it.

Hi, I bought the same sd card, since performance seemed ok, but I'm gettin very low read/write speeds. I can't post the screen yet, but the values are around 4.5 MB/s

I've set the card to ntfs file system with 4096 byte allocation. on fat32 doesn't improve either. What am I doing wrong :confused:
[Desire HD Accessories] XA-R01:
Try using 32KB or 64KB cluster size.

If you test it on pc, make sure the driver for the card reader is up-to-date.

If you test it on Desire HD, use sd tools v1.6, the write speed results are more accurate.

By the way, as far as i know, Android doesn't support ntfs.
[Desire HD Accessories] ice_v88:
Ok so I retested it with SD tools (android app) in fat32 file system:

Wrte speed: 12.0 MB/s

Read speed: 14.5 MB/s

I think it's safe to say this microSD performs quite nicely :)

[Desire HD Accessories] ozaghloul:
I just bought a 32GB class 10 Lexar card from Amazon for $47 (price has since increased to $54). I should be getting it on Monday. It comes with a neat little usb reader and the reviews seem to be mostly positive.

The card comes with some synchronization software on it which I don't intend to use. What is the best method of formatting the card before I start using it? Should I format it on a PC? What specs should I use for the format? Or should I format it using the phone? Or should I just simply delete the files that come preloaded without formatting?

PS> I'm using rom CM7.1, and I don't use partitions such as ext4.

[G Tablet General] insight3fl:
Is the gtablet screen glass or plastic....I keep seeing reference to both?
[G Tablet General] rayden25:
It is glass.
[G Tablet General] XANAVirus:
Huh, didn't know that.

Though, if I leave it alone and my GTablet gets cold, the touchscreen never really gets cold (which feels really good to me) unlike the iPad which the rest of my family have (though, I would never use one, I'd never get used to having just a Home button).

I thought glass only got cold and so that's why I thought it wasn't.
[G Tablet General] whosloosin92:
My screen is cold. It is glass.
[G Tablet General] alphadog00:
I am pretty sure that all capacitive touchscreens are glass. Resistive screens (Stylus required) are plastic.
[G Tablet General] MasterN02:
Viewsonic says...

Well...I called Viewsonic. I asked them if the GTab screen was glass or plastic. Her response was, "Well...it's not really glass and it's not really plastic." I said, "So is it plexiglass?" Her response was, "Yeah...it's pretty much plexiglass." Take that with a grain of salt.

According to what I've read about RainX, if the screen was plastic, it would cause damage to it in the form of a haze that cannot be removed (this happens to most people that try to use RainX on their motorcycle windshields). So, I am led to believe that it is some form of glass...plexi or otherwise. Considering there have been no complaints of RainX users having their GTab become hazy, I think my conclusion is supported. Hope this helps some people out!

God Bless!
[G Tablet General] jlytle1234:
"A capacitive touchscreen panel is one which consists of an insulator such as glass, coated with a transparent conductor such as indium tin oxide (ITO). As the human body is also a electrical conductor, touching the surface of the screen results in a distortion of the screen's electrostatic field, measurable as a change in capacitance. Different technologies may be used to determine the location of the touch. The location is then sent to the controller for processing."
[G Tablet General] MasterN02:
RainX worked great on my GTab this weekend...must not be plastic!

God Bless!
[G Tablet General] Mantara:
I worked in the plastics industry for years and the screen feels like acrylic glass combination. The pictures I have seen of broken Gtab screens makes me think its layered acrylic composition on top of glass. Any how, my best guess.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlock87:
Hi Everybody!

Someone could please tell me why these two smartphones are a lot faster than our wildfire?

I don't think it depends on the CPU frequency because they are faster also versus the overclocked wildfire.

On these smartphones, in example, angry birds runs better than well! You can find gameplays on youtube!

I tryied playing on a gt-i5500 and the gameplay it's like on the iphone

I don't think these smartphones have a GPU...

So, why the wildfire, which cost a lot more, is so slow??? Please help me to understand
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex_GP:
Wildfire costs more because of the brand. For example, a SOny TV is much more expensive than a LG of the same specs because of the brand`s name and history.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlock87:
ok!

now, why it is so slow?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Its because it uses a very old CPU, with no GPU, and, utilizes the Sense Interface, which requires a lot of processing power.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlock87:
the gt-i5500 and the ideos both have GPU?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HCDR.Jacob:
Ideos doesn't
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlock87:
so, wildfire with cyanogenmod (no SENSE) with overclock should be faster than ideos

but you can see that this is not true!

i would like to understand how much this slowness is hardware or software related, because if it is software related ( opengl driver, ecc) maybe can be fixed

what do you think?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brilldoctor:
The wildfire cannot do angry birds due to the lack if gpu it is reallllly low framerate
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mino_32:
I think it's because i5500 has much smaller screen and therefore resolution. The same processor can faster reload images, because it requires less computing.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
The i5500 does have a smaller screen (2.8" vs 3.2"), but, the resolution is the same (240x320), which implies the number of pixels on the screen are the same.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TH3KiD:

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spaeter:
Ideos has an overclock CPU (made directly by Huawei) at 600Mhz.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TH3KiD:
I am saying that it has a GPU named "ADRENO 200"
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch.wirapraja:
interesting, could they (gmsarena) be wrong about this? so practically wildfire is as lame as ideos in gaming huh? well im just saying, they got that 3d game in their ads.. sucks tho.. im liking this ideos thing so far..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
They are. There is no GPU in the wildfire, and, it sucks at gaming. It should be your last priority if you intend to play even remotely taxing games, even ones like Angry Birds.

I don't know about the Ideos, but, there again I think GSMArena is wrong. AFAIK, MSM7225 does not support GPU's. Only 7227 does, which is rated at 600MHz. So, if as another member said, that it ships at 600MHz, there is a possibility is uses the 7227 instead of the 7225.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exespert:
so which is faster? ideos or galaxy 5?

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:
Hey developers,

i wonder if it's possible to build an app that can sync googlemail correctly, with all options (labeling, different adresses, etc) and also syncing the google calendar with all options such as multiple calendar support, etc.

Togehther with a livetile that shows new mails and a toast notification for appointments this could be a killer app for WP7 and would make me switch immediately to WP7.

I don't know much about programming, it's just a question about the possibility.

Any Ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoonStudios:
Yes, it is possible.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:

Is anyone working on this kind of app?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekellogg:
I have the Samsung focus, and gmail works perfectly. I can see all of my folders, all labels. As far as the calender, it only shows the primary.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesofly:
Not really sure what you're asking for. All of that functionality is baked into the OS. You can sync your gmail and it'll create a new mailbox icon that you can pin to your start screen. And you can sync your google calendar to your calendars which give you notifications of appointments.

Why would you want a separate app?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:
Example:

Calendar:

I have six different calendars, all in one account.

WP7 shows only the main one.

Under android, all calendars are shown.

E-Mail:

Of course WP7 displays the labels as folders but not as labels.

I do often label an e-mail with two or three labels without moving it to a folder.

It stays in my in-box.

If i do a search under WP7 to look for a special label, then only those mails are found who have been moved to the appropriate folder.

To use all the features of googlemail the syncing of WP7 isn't good enough.

That's why i'd love to have an app for that ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmerrey:
I don't know if SuperG calender has everything you want, but it might hold you over...no live tile, no notifications, but it will show all your google calenders
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:
Thanks for the hint.

Tried it.

Does not display any calendar... all it does is displaying error codes.

1,99 EUR wasted.

Only to inform you if anyone wants to try this app out.

Still looking for an app that fits my needs :o
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreepinJesus:
The calendar problem is the same with Windows Live calendars - I'm not sure what the deal is with that :confused:

Gmail shows the labels as folders when using IMAP - it'll be the same in any email program that connects with IMAP. The issue with this is that it will stay in the inbox and appear in all the folders for which it is labelled - if I label something in my inbox with "XDA" and "WP7", it will appear in the inbox folder, as well as the "XDA" and "WP7" folders, but it is the same item.

It wouldn't be so bad if the mobile Gmail site wasn't so useles....
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:
Agree.

I don't understand why only the main calendar is synced.

Does no one in Redmont use more than one calendar (friends, work, private, other companies)?

Unfortunately i need at least four of my calendars for my business.

Let's hope, a dev has a heart and solves our problem ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmerrey:
odd, it's working great for me, not sure what happened on your end
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prinzessin Horst:
All i can see in this app are error codes:

> network error getting calendar...<

All six of my calendars are getting the same error.

Made sure a million times that email and password were correct.

Tried with wlan and 3G... no worky.

Would like to get in contact with the developer but in the app description there's no contact data.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Corwin9S:

why?

because winmo 6.1 is purely and simply dead.

because winmo 6.5 is also in the graveyard with his little brother.

because skype has made already an end to this both plateform.

wm6.x is hardly dead. is much more versatile than i-app-phone or goo-OS app crap...

Salt at all, someone can tell me if there is a link to download a version of Skype running on a Samsung i900 Omnia with windows mobile 6.1 pro.

thank you for your interest.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Bry8Star:
Hi yann73 , in yahoo or in google search for "skype windows mobile" , look for the link that says "Skype Windows Mobile ... v3.0.0.256" , download file from a trustworthy site.

There are two types of files out there, one is a cab, another is exe, same version. Get the "exe" version.

Connect your Windows Mobile phone with your windows (pc/desktop/laptop) computer thru ActiVeSync type of sync software.

then run/execute the 'exe' version installer, it will install necessary stuff in ur computer first, then rightaway it will start to transfer+install inside ur Phone.

In my experience, i wasnt able to make the cab version worked on Phone, but the exe version when installed in Phone sync connection then it worked, ur experience may vary.

If audio doesnt work properly then you will also need the "WM Audio Redirector.zip" or AudioRoute, a free soft, search here in xda-dev.

As below phones are similar to mine, it should work on all of them : HTC Touch Diamond, Touch Diamond2, Touch HD, Touch HD2, Touch 3G, Mogul/Titan 6800, Kaiser / TyTN II , P4550 & Samsung Omnia i900.

That will allow to use Audio & Text chat . No Video chat support on that version of skype , unless some1 makes a VideoRoute software for it, like AudioRoute.
