[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSRemmert:
This may just be a case of me being genuinely unlucky in my purchases but humour me anyway!

Like you lot I have an SGS and with all the recent mods regarding sound I like to use it as my mp3 player, so buying a micro sd card for additional storage was a must.

I had a spare 4gb class 2 card lying around so I've been using that for some months. Finally decided to upgrade to a more meaningful 16gb class 4 card.

Ordered one off Amazon through a seller. As soon as I put the card in the phone, it refused to recognise it but my PC, digital camera, old blackberry 9000 and n95 saw it just fine. So I formatted the card in the pc using the downloadable SD Card formatter as some googling suggested this might return the card to a working state. After that the phone saw a 16gb card, so I copied some music onto it, it worked for about 30 mins and then the card died totally. Upon reinserting it into the pc, windows only saw an 8mb card in RAW format and nothing I've done since has recovered the card. Card was dead.

Anyway I contacted the seller who posted me a nice shiny Kingson 16gb class 6 card right away.

New card arrived last night, appeared in the phone straight away as a 16gb card. Great start. :)

Plugged the phone in, started copying some music on it - the write speed was incredibly slow. I mean really slow, 100mb of mp3s was taking the best part of 3 minutes. Popped the card in the PC, same problem.

I find that I can actually write data to the card till its full (albeit slowly) but once you've written more than around 4gb of data, the files start to vanish.

I know it sounds incredibly stupid but anything written after around the 4gb mark just doesn't appear when I plug it into the phone or the PC. The card claims it is full, but only 4gb of data is visible, let alone accessible. I've done the usual formatting of the card and changing card readers etc etc but the result is the same and this is starting to grow boring.

So, question. Am I just incredibly unlucky in my purchases or is my SGS killing cards? Because I'm quite weary of buying yet another card now.

Funny enough my old 4gb card still works just fine like it has for years.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woolios:
I know you'll have a FAT (file allocation table) that usually reserves a predetermined amount of space on the card for file locations. But your memory card should not be able to accept more than whats available and should be displayed correctly no matter what your using. IE pc or phone. Kingston are fairly reputable, but is your dealer reputable. There are a lot of counterfeits out there. I don't believe the phone itself is damaging these cards. Since your stating your old trusty card still works like a champ

hello to everyone! i'm new in this forum (and sorry for my bad english, sometimes.. :D)

I'm going to buy the hd2 and I was looking for some cool apps.. I saw that there are some users that asked about "measuring apps" like light meter, angle meter, sound meter..

but without much success..

It will be great if someone could post a list of those programs (expecially a seismometer app, really cool!:p like this one --> youtube search: Seismometer App Demo For Windows Phone 7 || can't post the url cause i'm new..||

but for 6.5)

thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gewoonjan:
try using the search function of the forum, than you'll find a few apps;)

or just browse the pages a bit, for example there is a metal detector app somewhere near the beginning of the themes and apps page;)

btw don't forget to say thanks to the developers and good luck with finding the apps you want:rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] giofrida:
thanks gewoonian!

yes I've found some apps.. the only one I've not found yet is the seismometer.. I was searching for an iphone or wp7 (watch video) -like app.. but I couldn't find, also in other sites or forums..:\

maybe cause a hardware-limitation (g-sensor)?
[HTC Aria General] Bob in Northern NJ:
I've seen numerous references to updated versions of ClockworkMod Recovery, up to version 3x. When I first flashed and rooted my Aria back in October of 2010 using the Unrevoked method, the version that was installed was 2.5.0.1

Multiple others have posted to use the ROM Manager App from the Marketplace to update it, however I personally do not like ROM Manager as it seemed to make my phone quirky when using it, and ClockworkMod remained at the same version regardless, so I uninstalled it.

I just completed the unrevoked method again, downloading the latest unrevoked installer for the HTC Aria, and the ClockworkMod version is still 2.5.0.1.

Is this

THE

version of ClockworkMod for our phone? Or is there another means of updating it that I can't seem to find here on XDA or through several hours of google searches?

Has anyone else found a non ROM Manager update?
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
There was a question in the Development forum about ClockworkMod 3 and jznomoney replied that Aria users don't need to update to version 3 and in fact he said if you do then you wouldn't be able to install any of the Liberated ROMs. BTW the most current version for the Aria is 2.5.0.1 as reported by ROM Manager.
[HTC Aria General] Bob in Northern NJ:
Thanks for the info. I did invert the numbers in the version and have corrected it.

Try SEUS repair.

What do you mean by "then i put the sin files"?

What was the flase message?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiraklakis:
Well i found he solution! Here's what i did!

1) I used x10flasher.bat which i found in this forum wih the latest firmware

2)Then i erased the files from C:Program Files/Sony Ericsson/Update service/db/13740270/blob_fs

3)Run SEUS and everything was ok!

Tell us if it works when done.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GoCkillaz:
I found an alternate method. Battery calibration.

1.) Completely drain battery, so the phone shuts off automatically.

2.) Turn on phone again, which should automatically shut off after first boot screen.

3.) Plug in to charger for 8+ hours. Plugging it in overnight will work as well.

OK, the only problem is that after Magldr no one is able to get accurate charging with phone off.

It charges up to 98 - 99% but never 100%, so this method is not realy working.

Update #1

I will have update by tomorrow night. My extended battery kept my phone at 1% for close to 90 mins until I gave up and did some more research. Sorry for keeping you all waiting.

I will be using this method below. If it works significantly, I will edit the first post. Ok?

For future reference:

1. Charge to 100 % with phone turned ON.

2. Shut down the phone.

3. Charge for 10 more minutes.

4. Unplug.

5. Remove then reinsert battery.

6. Turn on phone.

7. Plug phone in.

8. Delete data/system/batterystats.bin

THE CODE IS:

su

[press enter]

rm data/system/batterystats.bin

[press enter again]

9. Deplete the battery with movies, wifi, bluetooth, auto synch, max brightness, GPS, and random programs.

10. Let phone die. Turn on again, wait til phone dies on it's own. Repeat 2x.

11. Plug in, charge to 100%.

See you all tomorrow at around this time.

How you doing?

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] firaX:
What build are you using to get 2 days of battery life? On NAND, all i have tried so far was the stock Dec 30th DFT Desire rom. But battery life, even when calibrating, was not very good. With moderate use it would deplete within 24hrs. Now with WP7 my battery does last 2 days, same usage patterns. Did more recent roms fix things? I am well aware of SetCPU, interactive and smartass governors and so on, neither really gave me satisfactory battery life :(.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tidus18:
Im wondering the same as i remember reading it somewhere (cant charge the phone with MAGLDR if the phone is not turned on). If batt is depleted and i cant power on the phone - its a disaster right? I dont have a spare batt or external batt charger.

Anyone, please shed some light on this. Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:
I was thinking about buying an extended version but if I look at your uptime :O :O

My phone lasts for 51 - 54 hrs. damn, and I actually use it :D

I tought an extended batt would extend time but it seems the other way around
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:
hmmzz, I wouldn't try it :P but I get this strange feeling that something goes wrong when the phone is shut down. because when I pull the plug, my orange led STAYS awake :P my phone is so happy it's charged on air, maybe my phone is high or something but if that's not the case ;) :D it's clear that some errors are to be solved.

to be clear: when u want to test it shut down your phone when you got 80% or so, put it 10 minutes at the charger, boot and see for yourself! :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GoCkillaz:
What are you doing to get your battery to last that long? If thats stock, then im obviously doing something wrong.

how did you 'download voodoo lagfix'?

you mean you flashed a new kernel? did you flash a PROPER kernel that has been MADE FOR THE CAPTIVATE?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aicirt17:
I hope it was a proper kernel. I went to project-voodoo.org on my phone, downloaded voodoo lagfix 5.4.1 onto my phone, renamed it "update.zip", then used Rom Manager to flash it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i dont know what you downloaded, but unless it was specifically made for the captivate, ie. a REORIENTED kernel, you have an i9000 kernel. i would suggest you flash a kernel that actually works for our phone, have a look in the dev forum...theres lots of options there

All I'm trying to do is get some sort of lag fix on my newly downloaded Froyo phone. It appears that Voodoo's lag fix is the only one that works for some folks, but you have to have the Voodoo kernel in order to get the corresponding lag fix. But my only problem is that this lag fix made my sound go away. By the way, I flashed back to the original Froyo, and my sound suddenly re-appeared. Is there no other lag fix available for Captivate roms?

Any Success?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] emgodhth:
I am new to this, so please bear with me. I have a few questions regarding this process before I do it:

1.) Do I still need to do steps 1 through 9 if I have already flashed it and installed Windows 7 on it?

2.) If so, do I need to keep my SD card in my phone while I do this process?

3.) After completing this process, will the phone be able to read and "play" the files on the card? The reason I ask this question, is because I have pictures that I would like to have viewed, and music/videos that I would like to play, whenever I desire.

4.) Speaking of which, right now there is no option on my phone in which Zune can identify any other media besides what is offerered through Zune. Will this process change that option, or will another media player be downloaded to take care of this issue?

5.) In doing this process, will anything change in my already-installed, recently-updated Windows 7? I just updated my phone last week, and have tried to resolve several bugs since then so I've barely been able to enjoy it. I wouldn't want to do all these steps, and then have the same connectivity and speed problems that I have just resolved.

I know I could just go ahead and do the steps, but I just want to have some peace of mind before I start messing around with the flash process again. Plus, not to mention, you're one out of a few who seems to know that an issue with the SD card exists, so I just want to be sure.

Thanks ahead of time for your help in answering these questions.
