[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] 05081983:
Does anybody know how can I hide word documents and some jpeg files on my HD2 with WP7 running on it ?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] redman99:
Sync the files normally through Zune.

You can then use TouchExplorer to copy the files from the Zune/contents sub directories.

Rename them in the new directory, and delete the original ones.

Shouldn't show up in your Whats new, etc after you remove them from the original PC Zune folders.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schutzbugel:
My rooted (Captivate), 2.2 JI6/xda/froyo is unable to run ( BT GPS Mouse, or BT GPS Provider, or BT GPS-Googoo Android).

Each case ends in a "force close" after Pairing and during "Connect".

I'm using a well tested and operating external BT GPS receiver. (Delorme, BT-20)

Anyone hear of any known bug/conflict with the leaked 2.2?

Workaround? TIA

Found the problem! Advanced Task Killer (ATK) would not kill "BT GPS Mouse". The other 2 apps couldn't connect under that condition. Uninstalled "Mouse" and "Voila"! One at a time now each app works fine.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gastrella:
hi everyone i'm an android everyday user but i've got some dubts :

when i flash another android rom i need a task 29? if i do it i erase also magldr?

if your answer is yes can you also explain me why ? i'm here to learn :D

which andorid rom is the best for a daily use?

i've got also a question about wp7 ... is the developtment still running?

thanks so much for the answer and sorry for my bad english
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dipaolnv:
I personally feel that it's a good practice to to a task29 prior to flashing a new rom on the phone. Task 29 erases everything on the nand, including magldr. That's why you have to reinstall magldr after doing a task29.

As to which rom to use, that depends on you & on your phone. Do you prefer Sense or not? Do you want everything to work, or are you okay with some minor issues to get the latest and greatest? Do you need any special language capability built into the rom? Do you have a LEO512 or a LEO1024?

I personally prefer the DesireHD rom. The rom I'm using won't fit on the LEO512.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nobnut:
There is no need to perform a Task29 before reflashing. It does no harm though.

I agree with dipaolnv, it is a matter of choice. But, he is slighly mistaken, I have a LEO512 and am using a totally stock DesireHD ROM. That is where ext partitions come in to play ;)

There is lots of information here to get to grips with, take your time and have some fun :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dipaolnv:
:) Yes, there are a few roms that have the ext partition on the SD card to allow you to have a "stock" DesireHD on a LEO512... I was thinking that but never typed it :p. Thanks for mentioning.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mstrk242:
Personally I'd say it's not a good idea to do task29's when you don't have to. Your NAND chips have a certain amount of read/writes i their usable lifetime. It's a very high number, granted, but there is a limit.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gastrella:
i prefer to have sense and that everything work i'have tried cyanogen gingerbread but i love making 720p videos :D and so i'm returned to mdj froyo version

anyway thank i understand some thing ... another question i didn't understand too much about the ext partition there a guide but it doesn't explain why i have to do it . if you can help me also on this point :D

and what about wp7?

[Desire HD General] jackalac:
Hi all,

i have updated google goggles with the last version 1.3 last week, and i sow that the app is always in background while the dhd is in standby, ex. in the night, and drains the battery for 20/30% when i wake up in the morning...

Anyone has the same problem? tnx for all
[Desire HD General] sean2390:
I can confirm I have the same problem. I had to remove it.
[Desire HD General] mjt:
Any app that uses the camera, I set up to be killed using Advanced Task Killer after a minute. Otherwise you do get that excessive drain.....
[Desire HD General] UKMatt:
I can't say I've really noticed the problem on mine but I'll be looking out for it now. My DHD spends most of the day sitting on a charging dock, and I've just started using a bluetooth headset so any extra drain would've been dismissed as the BT.
[Desire HD General] jackalac:
I downloaded the new goggles from the market, I want to see tomorrow morning, after the standby battery itself consumes again, for now the application is not active..
[Desire HD General] samsenteur:
Same for me : it was ok with the previous version, but now it drains battery even with the app closed (can't understand how) =>8% in 10h!!!

When i go to see the detailled usage it shows no CPU usage, app closed, but still 8% of battery...
[Desire HD General] jackalac:
I may have solved this problem, I uninstalled and reinstalled the 1.3 version of goggles, for now no longer remains in the background.

BTW, when I use googles, first I leave the app and then force close in Applications> Manage Applications, so googles doesn't stay in the background

But now instead I see always "Rate Places running in background as service from Google Maps 5.0, but perhaps this is a bug in maps, i think.
[Desire HD General] ddulic:
I also had the same problem, I also noticed that 3h after i last used it i killed it via Task Killer and when i did it made the sound that it turned off my camera, like when you use barcode scanner and hear that code when the camera is adjusting, my widget also said that wifi was uploading something... So i dont know if google was spying on us or what happened...

You can flash it or pull it from the zip and put it in system/app with root explorer.

Hello,

T-Mobile HD2 has windows live software, however, every time I use it for chatting with friends, it is treated as text message so it's kind of expensive when chat a lot through messenger.

So is there any good app or website to use Windows Live Messenger chat, which only uses data plan instead of text message? Someone before recommended www.meebo.com, but it is not working correctly in Opera browser.

Thanks.

[Droid X General] galaga4991:
I've considered rooting and installing a custom ROM dozens of times ever since I got my Droid X back in August and I've finally decided I'm just going to do it, but i just want to double check a few things before I root my phone and install Fission:

1. I know that rooting voids your warranty, but if I have problems with my phone and I end up needing repairs, can I just unroot my phone back to stock and still have my phone be covered under the warranty?

2. Will my phone be secure rooted with a custom ROM? I don't want people having access to my personal info contact data, and my passwords.

3. If I Overclock to say 1.2 or 1.3 Ghz with ULV, will I have stability problems with demanding 3D games or other demanding apps?

4. After I root and install my Custom Rom, will I need to reactivate my phone or need to re-add my phone contacts/apps?

5. Will Z4Root work on system version 2.3.340?
[Droid X General] zwade01:
I have unrooted and exchanged under warranty with no problems. Your phone will be just as secure. 1.2-1.3 are very stable on my phone. If you do have to reactivate it's as easy as dialing *228 and following the prompts. If your contacts are "google" contacts they'll return to your phonebook. Your apps from the market shall return without a problem. And yes, z4root will work with your system version.
[Droid X General] stpvapor:
I am having difficulty rooting my droid x. I am an android noob, but am a pretty savvy user. I used z4 (permanant) and it says it has been rooted when i launch the app. However i see no appreciable difference in access. My terminal still shows a $ prompt and i cannot uninstall verizons crapware. I used rage against the cage prior to z4 with similar results, but i was able to at least get temporary su access and install the bootstrap recovery and perform a system level backup. It reverted to user access after rebooting. Please help.
[Droid X General] SharkBaitDave:
Superuser confirmation

alright, if you want super user privileges in terminal type "su", then once you hit enter, you get "#" instead of "$" To test if you have root access, first check app drawer for "Superuser" if its there, open an app that requires it, (wifi teather, root explorer, rom manager to name a few) you should get a pop up similar to this

http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...=1&ndsp=12&ved=1t:429,r:8,s:0&biw=888&bih=638

that would be a diffinitive confirmation that you have superuser permissions.

The way I remove verizons crap once rooted, is to use root explorer, go to system/app and find the .apk files you want to remove. There are lists around the forums what is safe to remove. I highly recommend simply renaming the files. For example, the 3g hotspot app is called mynet.apk, so I would just rename it to mynet.bak, or mynet.apk.bak, really anything that lets you know what it is, but removes the .apk extension.
[Droid X General] stpvapor:
Ok, I have confirmed su access, but am unable to rename any of the offending .apk's. I am simply told that the operation was unsuccessful. I have tried a couple of different file managers, as well as trying from a terminal, still no luck. I like 2.2.1 alright, but if i can't control what apps are running on my phone with root access, I may want another ROM. Any suggestions are appreciated, aswell as any links to a rom installer that is pc-less.
[Droid X General] SharkBaitDave:
I usually rename apk's from Root Explorer, just prefer the graphical interface, so I can't really help you on the terminal process.

Rom manager is "pc-less" although most roms are posted in forums first it is often the easiest route, also lets you make backups and restore. There are a few posts around on how to install a rom you might want to read first. Also, you should find the thread for the rom before you flash it, in favor of size and speed, some developers go down to bare minimum and may remove something you need/want.

I have not used it, but I hear Titanium Backup allows you to "Freeze" apps, so that is a possible route also.

2.2.1 is not exclusive to people running official vzw builds, many of the roms on the forum (and rom manager) are running 2.2.1, so you will not be taking a step back to an earlier release.
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
If you are trying to rename apps in the /system/app portion of the OS, you will need to mount /system as RW first.

from terminal: mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

After it has been mounted read-write, you should be able to rename...

to remount as read-only: mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
[Droid X General] galaga4991:
Thank you for your response. Just out of curiosity, did you (or anyone else for that matter) have to reactivate your phone after rooting and installing a custom ROM? I'd rather not have to re-activate my phone every time I want to update a ROM or change to a different ROM.
[Droid X General] stpvapor:
Thank all of you for the great info. Here's what I've learned after a day of rooting and romming: titanium freezes apps only in the paid version, z4 was the most user friendly app for rooting noobs, milestone overclock works well if you have the patience to lock up your phone several times finding the right settings, and I'm digging apeX 1.3.1. Thx to everyone for your help, i will definately be checking here frequently. One last question: where might i find a side by side comparo of roms with things like features and memory footprint, etc.? Or am I asking for too much. Im not scared of the search button, but i will defer to the more experienced of you. Thanks again.
[Droid X General] stpvapor:
I used rom manager to load apeX 1.3.1 and did not need to #228. I did not clear the user data or cache, but I do not know if that affected my results or not. Your mileage may vary.
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
I don't know that anyone has really done a side by side per say. Since you say you are apeX, then if you are looking for more ROM's that contain blur features, then I would recommend looking into ZapX Bazinga, or Fusion (from the same creator as Fission, but just with blur). I have not worked with any of the Blur ROM's so far...

If you are looking for ROM's that do not have blur, then the big ones are Liberty, Fission 2.5.7, GummyJar 2.5, and Rubix Focused 1.9.5. Liberty is the big one right now, because it just came out and combines the great talents of Kejar31 and Jrummy. Most others I believe are using Fission. All are great choices, as the dev's do some AMAZING work.

Each has their owns unique feel...so I woudl recommend just digging through each thread for their respective ROM's as they usually include what components are built into each ROM on the original post of each thread.

Hope this helps somewhat =)
[Droid X General] RKramden:
another ROM to try is DarkSlide. It comes in both flavors, Blurred & Blurless. It's fast, stable & well supported. You only have to re-activate if you wind up bricking your phone & have to flash an SBF. My advice it to spend the $$ on DroidXBootstrapper (available in the market) to make a nandroid backup prior to flashing your new ROM. This way you have a base to go back to in the event you run into problems, or want to try multiple ROMS. One other suggestion is to rename each backup into something that will let you know what the backup actually is, like StockROMBU or the like.

If your TV supports DLNA and can be controlled remotely via DLNA, then you can play files from your phone to your TV. If your TV has USB port and can play .3gp files, you can connect your phone via USB in Mass Storage mode and play the files that are on the SD card. If your TV has neither USB or DLNA, then you are out of luck ;).

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdelta01:
What app did you use for the chat?

For the stand, there is a fix somewhere on this forum or on the fans forum where the OP has suggested putting in a drop of thicker superglue into the hinge of the stand. The only catch is that you will need to keep the stand moving so that as the glue hardens, it does not lock the stand in place. I have not tried the method.
