[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lahma69:
I actually found the fix!! It is so simple and I don't understand why all developers aren't integrating it into their roms, it doesn't make sense... All you have to do is use root explorer or some other root file manager and navigate to "/sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/" and open the file "read_ahead_kb" with a text editor (with root explorer just long press the file and select "open with text editor", and if the value is anything other than 4, change it to 128 and save the file. The read speed on my new class 10 card went from 5Mpbs to 15Mbps, BIG DIFFERENCE! Only problem with doing it this way is it changes back to 4 after a reboot. There if a flashable file in the post I got this info from ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=815557&page=19 ) but I haven't tried it. Apparently it is very easy to integrate... I'm going to post in the developers section. Enjoy the correct speeds for your card!

So, what is to stop a person from setting it to 256? Not that anyone really needs to do this, I'm just curious.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lahma69:
Nothing is! 256 and 512 are actually working better for some people. Play around with the values and see what works best for you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subcypher:
Awesome. I'm testing now. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subcypher:
I tried both 256 and 512 and there seems to be no difference. I get read/write scores of around 12MB/s using 128, 256 and 512. I'm guessing that's a limit of the hardware. Is anyone getting better than that?

I'm using Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS5 with Launcher Pro Plus for starters. I'm wanting to create folders for games and settings and what not to clean up my screens. By default, I can only make certain folders such as bluetooth received files and some other bs which I don't really care for. I tried creating a new folder, but I wasn't able to create a name for it, it was just named "Folder". Anyways, I'd like to know how to rename the folders and flash over some folder icons. Would like to make folders for music, games, settings, and possibly like social or something for all my communication apps. Just wondered what folder icons were pretty sick and could match what I have right now. This is my screen.
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
You can rename it by opening the folder and clicking the name in the titlebar. I'm not sure you can assign icons though. However, you can download Folder Organizer, which will let you choose icons, custom sort items in them, and a bunch of other cool things. Either the free or paid version will do what you're after, though the full version adds some convenient features.
[EVO 4G General] Seandeezy:
Yeah I downloaded Folder Organizer today and was messing around with the folder options which is what I was looking for. Now, how am I able to get different icon packs? I tried looking in the market, but all those icon packs require different programs. So I'm a little stumped.
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
I've generally found what I'm looking for in the icon packs that are included. I have the paid version -- I'm not sure if there are more in the paid version than there are in the free version. I think you can also grab icons from applications on your phone, or just choose images you find from any source.

I am using the original class 2 16gb card that came with my HD2, and WP7 is running fine. And I have this class 10 4gb card from PNY, wondering if that would give a boost in overall WP7 performance.

I know one way to do this is to refresh back to wm6.5 and then back to wp7. But I was also wondering if I could just insert the new sd card and do a hardset. Will this work?

Search threads for x10a global generic firmware 2.0.2.A.0.24 and flash tool. There is Rogers 2.1 as well, but there is no ATT 2.1 firmware, because they never updated. Global Generic x10a works great. I used to swear that regional Brazil was better than global generic for ATT, but after using x10a global generic 2.0.2.A.0.24 firmware I have to say they work the same. Global Generic is only missing google Voice Search app, but you can download it yourself.

You have to "extract" the 10 "file sin" files out of the firmware download to get them into the right format, "SIN files". Then create a "firmware" folder inside flasher folder, if one does not exist, and put the "SIN file"s in the firmware folder.

[HD2 General] Hahutzy:
Hey guys, I bought from a guy on ebay who claims that he's selling a T-Mobile HD2 digitizer, but when it came, it's one of the ones that have soldering points, meaning it is for HTC HD2 (see my post here about it).

So now I bought from another guy (hopefully the right one this time), and I have a HTC HD2 digitizer unused unopened just lying around, going to waste.

If anyone wants it, I'll send it over for $40 + shipping.

If you're in Toronto, Canada, just come pick it up, save on the shipping cost.

[XPERIA X10 General] soldiers33:
its only becuase the digitizer is white so the light reflects through the glass as with the black one it doesnt let any light through. It does this with any led not only over 90%. Get a text at night and it will shine like that while blinking.

Good evening XDA crew,

I was just wondering if there is going to be a possibility of a SD bootable version of WM6.5 in the future? Is it technically possible? What are the limitations?

Everyone's (rightly) moving away from WM6.5 and jumping onto the Android bandwagon, myself included, but WM6.5 still earns a place on the HD2, imo.

For two reasons for me anyway - TomTom and LowCaller.

Being able to boot WM6.5 as a secondary OS would be ideal.

So what's the verdict?

:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3PH:
I read something either earlier or yesterday (can't remember where on xda) that cotulla was working on getting wm6.5 to boot from an sd card. I don't know if it's true and i can't verifiy it or find the thread i saw it in so don;t hold your breath.

One other thing, please don't assume that using android over WM6.5 is the best choice for everyone. It is just your opinion that android is better. Your post insinuates that any other opinion is wrong. For example, my opinion is that android is an immature, open source, iphone clone for immature, fan boy teenagers. This is not wrong, it is just my opinion. Please take that onboard for the future
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Personaly, I don't know if this will be possible. (major doubt about it). But I can be wrong.

but let's be honest, running Android (what is relative a small OS) from your SD works but if we ar honest, it isn't the same as running as if it is install on internal memory.

Now we have WM who is a more large OS. imaging it running from SD:eek::eek:;)

What I will say (I'm a big fan of WM) is we all knows that WM is sometimes what slow/buggy. So if tomorrow it will run from your SD-card I will have doubs about how good it will be. :eek:

If I was you I take a good WM custom ROM and run android from your SD-card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMS92:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hecatombercm:
^agree^

I lost all the utility I had when it came to backpacking/hiking. Geocache and even when it came to navigating with meens other then gps winmo is still the strongest OS. Anyone remember 100% free orbcast and other, iptv ipcc? Those days may not be behind us with this. I love bits and pieces of all the moder platforms, but none provide the real/true utility value of wm65
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tictac0566:
^^^ +1 for this.

It will most probably take some time (for any platform) to re-discover all the niches which are still being served by WinMo 6.5.

As long as it´s a niche which promises commercial success, one would think it will go fast - but then again, there is some massive doubt about that, considering the current situation.

However, "homebrew" solutions are king when it comes to smaller niches - this is, for the time being, the strength of the Android platform. It was an old, traditional strength of Windows Mobile. Just consider the xda platform we are all being a part of right now.

5. EVERY time you close the VPN connection and you login again the phone/server will request the process stated above.

Does it mean:

1. Whenever you connect to freeopenvpn.ovpn the web browser will redirect you to http://www.freeopenvpn.com in order to activate the service, you just need to click on the linck and you'll be set.

2. If you don't click on that you won't be able to transfer any data either over WIFI or 3G

3. It's not always but if you can't load the http://www.freeopenvpn.com webpage after clickin on it,please wait while the phone is trying to comunicate with the server, it can take up to 5 Minutes :S but it will eventually load

4. After the webpage loads you'll be redirected to their site but you can start browsing using the assigned IP Address.

You can change it only if you open an account on www.openvpn.net probably you can select other countries/locations.

As per GVoice i don´t think this could help since GVoice is bases specially on your Gmail Account so if your Gmail Account is not registered within the US this won´t work.
