[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Rocheau:
JPhilouxx, for European users, the big concern about NAND is the low internal storage of the phone after installing the NAND BUILD. Sometimes the free memory at the start- without adding any app, just the NAND BUILD as is- is just 180 MB. Taking into account that some apps can not run from SD, like Google Maps, Opera, ADOBE FLASH.... we have serious problem just to use main apps. Always the message of low internal memory appears everytime you are updating google mail or google maps. Even some apps can not just move to SD completely, so we are waiting for any fix to this low internal memory. I have seen that some developers have started to split the IMG into SD although main system is loaded from internal memory.

In the meantime, some apps like our italian colleague is talking about can be a little help.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tboy2000:
This is what I recommend.

Root your HD2 Android phone by donwloading z4root.apk.

http://tinyurl.com/32yarv5

Apply and restart phone.

Download and install ModInstallLocation.

http://tinyurl.com/3a2flgc

In Superuser app, allow ModInstallLocation app.

Restart phone.

In ModInstallLocation app choose location 2 (SD Card) and save

Maybe restart can't remember.

From now on any app you download will AUTOMATICALLY be installed on SD card. Also you can move your existing apps from Phone to SD in the Application settings.

BRILLIANT STUFF!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Rocheau:
Thank you very much for your tips. Thinking to avoid Titanium Back Up for the moment, as not all app are restored to SD, so it will be better going one by one.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jphilouxx:
Thank's for this answer , for me i've installed all my apps , i think more 60 apps with low and good sizes as games etc... it run fine and very smooth with cpu clocked to 806mhz, i have tweaked rom via Cyanogenmod in the performance menu and i have a really big difference on speed, when i click on my tasker for end apps i have +300mo free on ram, but really thinking about desire hd roms , i've tested each one and i have this message memory alert with 20apps or 30, depends on size.. my choice is CyanoGenMod Rom's because no really need to install this "Apps2sd" and my battery know it!! i have 25mo free internal memory on my Hd2 with all my apps installed ..soo what else ?! i don't need :))

My 8gb sd card have a much free space for all others things ..

sorry if i don't really understand all you message but i see what you want to say!

Thank you Mr Rocheau

But really this will be nice if it's splitted to sd because many desire hd roms will be not very "usable(???)" with low memory , so i prefer return to non nand desire hd builds on sdcard like before ..this will be the same i think for battery life ..maybe not ..all advices are welcome !!! :)))
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Muurtegel:
Maybe you should go 'hybrid' and place applications that you use a lot on your internal memory. And apps that you don't use a lot (like games and navigation software for example) on your SD card. This way you will only use extra power when you use these apps.

For the moment I'm waiting on a clean android NAND build. Sense takes up a lot of NAND space..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jphilouxx:
yes this is true ,before i've installed senses roms , desire hd build, with nand tech' and exactly do the same thing what you say , this is an option , really !

Each of us should test more and more tweaks like that and we'll know how many drain on it with our batteries.. So much more times on our lovely Htc HD2 !!! we need to spend more time on it for find the best hardware configuration for an usual daily rom, i think future is with CyanoGenmod Rom's they are the best for our HD2 and stable for daily use... sorry again i'm french i don't speak english so much..thanks

[Droid 2 General] banq81991:
First off, I wanted to apologize for posting this in the Droid 2 thread, but seeing as there is no milestone 2 thread, I saw no better place to write this.

So I recently decided to purchase a milestone 2 from Expansys USA to replace my current Android phone. However, I noticed that the one sold on the site is the european version and therefore does not work on AT&T's 3g network (850,1900). However, a motorola site implies the existance of a milestone 2 that does on fact work on these frequencies.

My questions are:

Does this model in fact exist?

If it does, is there anywhere online where I can purchase said model?

Thanks in advance.
[Droid 2 General] hgrimberg:
It exists . It is being sold in Argentina by a carrier called Personal.
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
You might try a Droid 2 Global it has GSM and CDMA capabilities and can usually be unlocked for global SIM card use and unlocked to work on AT&T's network (Verizon locked out US GSM bands).

hi, i posted not long ago about memory i bought from ebay..it was fake, i did return it and today i was given a refund from ebay........what i want to know is this

where should i buy my memory from...is play.com safe??? is amazon.co.uk safe??

im looking at some on play.com right now but daren't purchase till i know it won't be fake, also does play.com accept paypal?

what size should i be looking for??

what class should i be going for??

thanks in advance :)
[General Accessories] dtran11:
order off of newegg if your looking for micro sd cards because they're cheaper for like 16gbs
[General Accessories] evoic:
If you store a ton (and I mean a TON) of music and possibly video on the phone, get 16GB.

If you do not meet that criteria, you are more than fine to grab a 4GB or 8GB and just get something class 6 or higher for speed.

Class 10 is overkill, but it is also a bit more future proof.

I personally have a 4GB class 10 and I haven't even made a dent in it.

Picked it up at Amazon for $14 or $16 shipped a few weeks before xmas.

Just make sure that it is Amazon or an Amazon authorized reseller and you're fine.

If you find a deal on NewEgg that includes free shipping, they also are outstanding to buy tech items from, as stated above.

Good luck.

Oh. One last thing.

Even if you think you take a lot of pictures, keep in mind that 1GB of memory holds approx. 1,000 pics taken at 5MP. Do you

really

plan on storing 16,000 photos on your phone?
[General Accessories] forelli:
Hi, I can't find it anymore but I've read somewhere that comparatively a class 2 or 4 performed better than a class 6 or 10. On a side note, if like me, you also watch shows or movies on your phone, take a 16 Gabriel Kingston class 4: they're cheap and perform very well! I got 2*8gb SD cards and 1*16gb and I'm very happy with them.

[General Accessories] evoic:
I think what you're referring to is the card-to-phone transfer speed, which I believe is internally capped, so even if you had a futuristic class 50 card, it still would not matter because of the cap, you're going to end up with 2-4MBs max speed. This means that in terms of use in your phone, you're fine with Class 2 and probably maxed with Class 4.

The DIFFERENCE is that if you take the card out of the phone and throw it into a reader, my card is going to transfer the data 5 times faster between the reader and my computer than that class 2.

It also can be used with an adapter and be thrown into a camera that takes advantage of high speed memory. It's the difference between firing off 24 pics per minute vs. 100+ pics per minute.

Here is the wiki link and a quick excerpt, the first number is the read speed, the next number is the write speed and that relates to how the card is numerically rated:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Rating

Speed Class Rating

The Speed Class Rating is the official unit of speed measurement for SD Cards, defined by the SD Association. It is equal to 8 Mbit/s, and it measures the minimum write speeds based on "the best fragmented state where no memory unit is occupied":[10]

The following are the ratings of some currently available cards:

* Class 2: 16 Mbit/s (2 MB/s)

* Class 4: 32 Mbit/s (4 MB/s)

* Class 6: 48 Mbit/s (6 MB/s)

* Class 10: 80 Mbit/s (10 MB/s)

Even though the class ratings are defined by a governing body, like × speed ratings, class speed ratings are quoted by the manufacturers but unverified by any independent evaluation process. In applications that require sustained write throughput, such as video recording, the device may not perform satisfactorily if the SD card's class rating falls below a particular speed. For example, a camcorder that is designed to record to class 6 media may suffer dropouts or corrupted video on slower media.

Important differences between the Speed Class and the traditional CD-ROM drive speed measurement ("×" speed ratings) are that speed class:

1. may be queried by the host device

2. defines the minimum transfer speed.

Newegg is selling a Patriot 32gb class 10 microSD for a hundred bucks. I think it's out of stock atm but if you're in the market for speed and size this would be a great one!
[General Accessories] evoic:
Once more, in the interest of information:

- Patriot Current Pricing -

4GB Class 10 = $12

8GB Class 10 = $25

16GB Class 10 = $49

32GB Class 10 = $100
[General Accessories] Geoowl:
I prefer to get on official Samsung site or physical store. As I know, most memory on ebay are fake and are just updated from some former version. The storage is not true.
[General Accessories] evoic:
1. Who said anything about eBay?

2. Samsung sends a warm and hearty "Thank You". It is customers like you that choose to pay a 400% premium for "name brand" when often times with numerous products, the "name brand" company is buying from an OEM house and relabeling it. (LCD TV's, Power Supplies, and especially various types of memory)

3. Simply put, just buy from any reseller in good standing - online or brick and morter, and test the memory when you receive it if you should have any concerns at all. As long as you're buying from a known entity that gets scrutinized to death on these boards (such as Sandisk, Kingston, and yes....Patriot) you should be perfectly fine and you should receive exactly what you order.

Would the steps mentioned under "III. (UPDATE 12.09.10)(Optional) Gain S-OFF" in this link do the S-off thingy on Desire without any issues?

Is it the recommended method?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popoffka:
I'm not sure that this would work fine on any Desire.

I'd recommend using http://alpharev.nl/ instead — you just have to download the .iso, burn it then boot it and connect your Desire to your PC — everything else will be done automatically.

Please i really need someones help.

I have been trying for 3 days trying to sort out the recovery for my x10 mini and i havent been able to get it right.I have tried eveything and all methods and i cannot boot into recovery. I hit the back button so many times and it carries on loading the phone.

Please someone help me understand what im doing wrong

I have copied all 3 files to system/bin and changed permissions and nothing

I have tried bootstrap to boot into recovery nothing.

I have installed and tried different versions of recovery and they dont work

I dont want to try flashing roms or changing firmware until i can get into recovery

I am on the verge of pulling my hair out.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Escaladez2:
Anyone ever thought of pulling the raw data from the proximity sensor and using as a IR sensor for, say, a remote. Sticking my tv remote by the proximity sensor, I was able to use a sensor data app to tell me that the proximity sensor was reacting to the remote when I pushed volume buttons. Sound interesting to anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simlehot:
yeah, sounds cool
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Escaladez2:
Any devs think its possible to accomplish this realistically?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HairyMerkin:
This is only slightly related, but I wish there was a way to use my phone to open to proximity gate to my unit complex.

Stupid $50 for key replacements.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aselker:
Maybe close range phone-to-phone communication?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lumparn:
Yeah, trying to lookinto it now actually. Also if the proximity sensor is sending out IR and is positioned next to the camera...I imagine an ability to detect objects/"human invisible colors" in the dark may be possible... if the amount of energy to the IR/proximity sensor could be programmatically set, depending on what eventual resistor components are installed of course...

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

I just now tested my remote too (a couple of years later) and yes I can clearly see the proximity sensor is reacting to presses on my remotecontrol. Limits as I can see this far:

1. The remote has to be exactly pointing towards the sensor and if more far than a decimeter away it seems to not be detected.

2. The proximity sensor in my device only returns a binary value,either it returns 0 or it returns 5, nothing in between.​

when i move 2 sd and unplug my sd card, the app won't open again I get force close.

anyone has a solution for this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
My N1 used to be able to get a decent signal everywhere in the house but of late it's struggling to even detect and maintain a solid connection with the wireless in the next room to the router.

I've got a laptop and iPhone in here and all of them have full bars except the N1, which keeps switching from data to wireless and back and can't maintain the connection consistently.

Any ideas on why?

Does it have to do anything with the radio/kernel?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Anyone?

I'm thinking of changing the kernel, would that help?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExtraDas:
Try this first.

Tell the phone to forget the network, restart your router and see if reconnecting takes care of it. My notebook used to have this issue so it's worth a shot.

If that doesn't help, then you might look into a different ROM/Kernel or make sure that it's not a hardware fault with the N1 itself.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuberio:
Could it be due to an OTA update that changed the radio?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuart.upton666:
The same happens to me, And it gets to a stage that it totally disconnects from wifi. It's really getting ln my nerves as we even got a booster and it doesn't help :?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajib:
same weak wifi signal on HTC Desire.

i second that. though i don't own N1, my Desire was getting full signal last year, recently i am getting very low signal as well. other devices get full signal as usual. so probably there was some update messing up.

i'll keep on searching if someone has better info to resolve.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Radio doesn't have anything to do with WiFi. Kernel does.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moda0222:
i'm having the same problem...has anyone found a fix?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
The problem's extended significantly. Bluetooth headset usage stutters profusely, even when I'm right next to the device.

I'm pretty sure the Wi-Fi issue has nothing to do with my router, since my Desire has full signal in the same place my N1 has one bar and is struggling to get a connection.

Changed kernels, ROMs, radios, flashed engineering SPL (I know that doesn't help, however) and even a stock EPE54B ROM. No results.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
try flashing back to pershoot's 2.6.35.9 kernel.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Makes no difference, I even tried flashing back to stock EPE54B (fastboot).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joerusama:
you may also give intersectRaven's kernel a try. the one with the wifi boost.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
2.6.38.6_CAVS-CM7_CFS_20110517_2251 is the one I'm trying.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
Nope, Wi-Fi range still the same, Bluetooth still stuttering on the new kernel.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fifth313ment:
I have an HTC EVO with software Hardware version 003, 3.29.651.5, S-OFF and HBOOT-0.97.0000. I have tried both update files I could find for 3.70.651.1:

OTA_supersonic_3.70.651.1-3.30.651.3_releasekobxwrvtv9q86pp0.zip

OTA_Supersonic_3.70.651.1-3.29.651.5_releasezq9ss6wyobuo26b5.zip

Neither works as both give errors upon applying update.zip in the recovery menu. "Error 7" and "sd install error" appear with tons of other odd text which don't really form many words. What is really odd is last time my phone was rooted and the update was released I simply did the method above like normal and everything went great. Then once it was done i re-rooted! Not this time though...

I have also tried directly downloading the update to my phone via htc update and installing but I get started and it quickly goes to a frozen yellow triangle icon which then I must pull the battery. My dilemma?

I wanted to try using the file my phone downloads from htc directly but i am unable to find the file on my phone? I have searched with astro file explorer and tried every search strong possible. I searched the SD and then tried to search the main phone memory. The phone says it stores it somewhere in the memory but doesn't say where? Does anyone know where it does? I wanted to try this and see if it will update.

I am basically looking to update and I could care less about root as I can redo it after the update. The big issue is that I want my phone to stay the way it is with no deletion of ANY DATA such as messages, apps, etc... I simply want to update and re-root like I did last time and I can't figure out why it won't let me? I don't want to have to flash a new stock ROM and lose everything or have to use a backup program to do what i did so easily last time.

The new version of unrevoked 3.3 is out so I want to update and be done. Perhaps the root is causing it and can I un-root and then re-root after the update? I hate that HTC released multiple versions of the same phone as updates become extremely tricky now and dangerous. Than You for any help you can provide.

I've seen took many people posting threads recently about trying to do the 3.70 ota and thinking they will just reroot after, they all have problems, my suggestion is to grab the radio/pri/nv/wimax update combo and flash it, then flash sprint lovers 3.70 after wiping cache and dalvik. you will still have root and all your apps with the newest software

make a backup in Ra beforehand just in case

Do this...

http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...ate-if-youve-unrevoked-forever-heres-how.html

I don't like flashing ROMs either. This will let you update.

Do a little more digging and you will find the answers. I admit it took me a little bit to find this l when I updated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fifth313ment:
I don't understand why my phone just won't update? I don't really want to flash but thanks for the info. Does anyone know where the EVO stores the updates it downloads? If anyone could please provide me with more info that would be great.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchlwvr614:
The reason it won't update is because you have a custom recovery. You need to flash the stock recovery to allow you to update.

If you follow the link above it will let you do what you want keeping all your data and upgrading like normal. Just need to flash the stock recovery back. This is as long as you did unrevoked forever.

The downloaded updates are stored in the phones file system under /cache. You need to be able to mount your file system as rw to be able to access. If you don't know how to do that you can find both of the OTA updates on the web and download them. Have to have the correct one for the version you are currently on. The Evo's were at two different revs for this last update.

Even if you find the OTA update and try to apply it from your custom recovery it will not work.

Dig a little more and if you cannot find them I will find the links again, didn't save 'em.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bpdamas:
Very good post and I am wondering the same thing. I haven't tried the stock recovery image thing yet but might soon. It was very easy to install the OTA update last time and then just reinstall the recovery image and superuser app. I bet it is not working because they changed the hboot in this version. I too haven't updated yet since I don't like losing my data and potentially missing something. I will probably just say screw it in a couple of weeks once I get time though and just flash the rooted version of the update.
