why not just compy your data onto an external HDD and then just reformat.. and copy your data back on?

I do it every 3 months and everything seems fine.. just because I can not be bothered to install anti-viruses, and reforamting takess less time than scanning.. :D:)

Because I'm sure about 20% of what I'd be copying is duplicates in different directories with different filenames.

FWIW I started using CloneSpy which works ok, but I haven't figured out a good way to perform batch operations yet, so I'm double-clicking about 300 times for every directory I clean out, lol.

So I'm on the Toshiba website trying to look up RAM specifications for my laptop and stumbled across THIS: :eek:

I'm currently running ver1.2. I've had this machine since late 2006 and never had an issue. Apparently I've never updated my BIOS either. :o

EDIT - If anyone is using a Toshiba laptop, check out the support website right away to make sure you're not affected.

[Streak 5 Accessories] Flinx78:
Just got a griffin powerjolt micro, comes with an ipod cable so you'll have to use your own, but it charges the streak up a treat :)

Think it was 12 pounds from amazon.

It's designed for iPads, which need 2 amps, it's rated for 2.1 amps. Charged from 30 to 60% in 20 mins while using gps.

Hope that's useful .
[Streak 5 Accessories] Anbuch:
For battery life is better to charge with low amps and for a long time. I would prefer ,not to use a charger with more than 1A
[Streak 5 Accessories] vasishta.sushant:
i got myself te belkin 1A charger. Should work good I guess.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Nomgle:
As mentioned in the other thread, both these two work just fine :

https://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-p...cable-charger-set-for-apple-ipad-12-24v-45227

https://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-cigarette-powered-1000ma-usb-adapter-charger-black-dc-12v-40470

$6 or $2 including free shipping worldwide. You'll need the Streak's USB cable to connect it.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Troute:
The car charger does not force power into the phone, the phone draws what it needs. Using a power supply with a higher Amp rating means less strain on the charger not more power than is needed going into the phone.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Anbuch:
Sorry for my bad English, I guess you do not understand what I mean.

You're right that the car charger with more amps does not force more power into the phone (I do not say that),but if you use a charger with more amps , charging time is less. The battery prefers long time charging with less charging amps. In fact using less charging amps ,the battery allowed to load more power (a little bit ). You can try it by using a USB port of yours computer to charge the battery.
[Streak 5 Accessories] brianlp:
Maybe it's just me, but what you are saying is exactly the same thing.

If the charger isn't forcing more power into the phone, then the charging time will not change. If the battery is receiving less current then what it was designed, such as a low powered USB port, then it would take longer then normal to fully charge. But once the charger puts out the amount of current that the battery will normally draw, the battery will only charge at that rate. Increasing the current beyond that amount will not speed up the charging time or push more current to the battery.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Nomgle:
Anbuch is trying to say that the battery will last longer in the first scenario - the longer, slower charge from the low powered USB port.

Quicker battery charging does degrade the cells in less time - if you were to always use a 500mA charger, you would get more life from the battery than if you were to always use the stock 1000mA charger.

You can pick up a replacement battery from eBay for $10, so none of this really matters - when your battery wears out in 18 months, just buy a new one.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Anbuch:
Nomgle ,thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to say!

I just gave an example with a USB port. In fact a USB port and a stock 1000mA charger are save enough for the battery of a Streak (1530mA). I just wanted to say : Do not use 2100 mA charger

This will "kill" the battery very soon

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nitros:
This is wrong the key it gives below is the certificate key, not the private rsa key.

I've done alot of searching in the past 3 days since I known i lost my RSA key. Here are the steps to what looks helped me get a rsa key in plain text. I havent seen anything like this post while searching so it may help everyone else. I think I was able to retreive my RSA key following the method below. Need a few other people to try it to see if they can get their key. I did this at 1 am in the morning with little sleep so bear with me.

Keep in mind I had done S-OFF a long time ago when unrevolved (the one that didnt kill wimax) first came out. Not sure if that matters or not.

Short Backstory

I couldnt connect to 4g for about 3 weeks now. I dont remember exactly when my rsa keys got lot but i suspect it was after a wimax firmware update from the all in one pack, once again im not 100% sure when they went missing. Finally yesterday I found out my rsa key was missing. I tried my best to try and retreive it with no luck. Figured I am screwed I figured I'd give run the official sprint rom to see if my 4g would return it did not. But i lost my root at the time so I did the universal auto root 2.2 steps found in this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=838448

I do not know at the exact moment my oem_rsa.key file appears on my sd card but follow these steps and see if you get the same.

Keep in mind that my RSA Wimax Checker still says rsa key not found but performing the steps below got me the rsa key in a text file. If everyone is successful with this step maybe eventually we can figure out a way to plug it back into the wimax.img to restore wimax.

Steps:

1) install 3.29.651.1.5_PC36IMG.zip found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=838448

2) Follow the 1-9 steps as directed, in thread linked above.

3) Run: adb shell

4) Run (for super user): su

5) Run: sed -n '/BEGIN CERTIFICATE/,$p' /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/rsa_OEM.key

6) Now look on yoru sdcard for rsa_oem.key file, copy it on to your computer and open it in open it in notepad++ you shoudl see something similar.

I recently received a T-mo G2, and tried to root&rom it.

I perma-rooted it, and although it seemed to work (i have the superuser app etc.)

when i try to install rom manager, it claims that my device isn't rooted. (superuser not found, blah blah)

Anyone else had that problem? i already searched the forum, not to find much.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ostinq:
How did you root? What happens when you type SU in the Terminal emulator?

rooted with visionary+ (temproot and then permroot)

Don't have any terminal emulator, so i don't quite have an answer to that.

I have the superuser app though, and visionary+ appears in the permission list, if that's any help

[HD7 General] manny84:
power button: Too recessed and flat, to the point where I now have to use my fingernail to power on the device.

volume button: Flimsy to the point where I can literally slide it up and down. I can also hear it jingle when the device vibrates.

Backcover Flimsy, moves around too much and is never tightly secured.

hardware: When I unplug my device from the charger and the screen is getting ready to time out, it flashes green, then times out... (this looks like it's going to create bigger issues down the road)
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Power button: 1 in 20 HD7's I have exhibited the behavior you mention. It went away however. I would advise against using your fingernails if at all possible.

Volume Button: Again, 1 in 20 have this, and unfortunately it's the one I carry around. Two other HD7's I personally used did not have this.

I'd try to get it replaced if I were you.
[HD7 General] manny84:
I'm 2 for 2 on the first two annoyances (power and volume button).

I'm getting it replaced again (for the third time) tomorrow morning. I've also noticed these problems with the store models at various T-Mobile stores.

If I have the same problem with my third device, I'm returning it and getting my refund. Omnia 7, here I come.
[HD7 General] Sean D.:
Hmmm... I don't care much for the power button placement, but I haven't seen any of the other things you mentioned.
[HD7 General] melcali:
regarding issue #1, how did the problem go away? did some mechanism inside shift causing the power button to pop out more? just wondering?

i also have the loose battery cover. very annoying.

also about the screen... havent seen this mentioned before. i have a slight gap at the left and right edges of the screen where it meets the chrome-ish border. its pretty easy for particles to get stuck in there. compared to the hd2, this gap is pretty noticeable.
[HD7 General] daaango:
I thought I was the only one with these issues lol, figured the recessed power button was just a design oversight

@jimbonics: just wondering, but why do you advise against using your fingernail?
[HD7 General] Rouz.:
Seriously? I checked a batch of HD7 in malaysia, and exceptionally, all of them had this issue. You're just so lucky you dont have it

Maybe because of this ?
[HD7 General] manny84:
Thanks Shu and daaango.

I knew I wasn't crazy in thinking this was an issue only I was experiencing.

I've also read several phone reviews, and a lot of the reviewers mentioned about the power button being recessed and stating frustration waking up the device.

I don't know how HTC can fluff up something so important. I mean, what good is a product if you can't power it on; wake it up? One would think they would put emphasis on having a solid foundation on the power button.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Melcali: Yeah, on one phone the power button managed to become flushed, to the point the user had to use their fingernail (even though i found it easy to turn on with the flat of my finger, almost like it was capacitive). However, next day it had 'popped out' a bit and had become less recessed and hasn't been a problem for him since.

daango: In addition to what Shu posted, using your fingernail is likely going to cause you to press the button in harder than it needs to be, which would likely cause the button to be crammed in more and more over time. If it can't be prevented, it can't, I'm just advising against it.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
I've got two unopened spares. I'm going to crack them open and see if the volume button jiggles.
[HD7 General] daaango:
Ah, thanks shu and jimbonics for explaining that

Honestly, I don't think it can be helped. Maybe my fingers are too round or something, but using my fingernail seems like the only option right now. I might try adding layers of tape on the button so its easier to press but idk yet... it might take away from the aesthetics
[HD7 General] amb9800:
All five units I've come across so far -- my defective original (corrupted memory), my current one, a second defective one (also corrupted memory), its replacement, and an in-store demo phone -- have the same issues:

Recessed power button

Very difficult to press camera button (basically useless)

Loose volume rocker (the case opening is about 0.8 mm too long for the rocker, so it moves around)

Imperfect battery cover fit (the plastic cover flexes from the opening process, so usually doesn't fit perfectly)

Weak screen support in bottom-right (press a bit on the search key and you'll see waves on the LCD)

On the two that I've had long enough to use, the clear coat on the kickstand is flaking off, and the Windows Phone logo, which was barely visible to begin with, has almost completely faded away on one of them.

Kind of sad that HTC screwed up so badly given that the HD7 is a barely-modified HD2, which was among the best-built phones on the market.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
wow, you have had a lot of problems. I'm still on my original hd7 since second week of november.

1. power button is slightly recessed, but no problems pushing it with my finger (not nail)

2. camera button does have some orange on it, but it functions properly.

3. volume buttons work fine, maybe a little slide to the rocker, but doesn't effect controls

4. no flaking of clearcoat, no wp7 logo coming off, no lcd discoloration no matter how hard I press on the search or back buttons.

5. Back cover fits properly. I haven't had much reason to pull it off after initial placement of sim card, thanks to phone not constantly freezing. There is a slight gap where the back cover meets the smaller cover.

What are you subjecting your phones to???

I agree the hd7 build quality might not be iphone, but it's holding up well for me. It's not like we have a lot of choices on t-mobile, the dvp has way more problems at this point.

[Desire General] willdau:
I know the title sounds stupid but for some reason my phone has unrooted itself?

My desire has been rooted since April last year and had a variety of ROMs. Reecently I have moved to the OXYGEN ROM (RC6) and have updated teh radio to Adam G recommendation when i tried to use Clockworkk recovery mod in ROM manager to update to RC7 the dreaded red exclamation mark came up. I could not bring up a menu so then I checked the HBOoT its still at 0.75 but now is s-on?

So I tried to root the desire again using UNrevocked and that didnt work becasue of my strange gingerbread RC6 ROM.

Anybody got any ideas how to fix it?
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
If you can boot your phone you need to put the update.zip back on the sd card, this can be done manually or by flashing clockworkmod again via rom manager.

And you do know that S-on does not mean that you are not rooted, only that you can't write to the system partition while booted (and some other stuff).
[Desire General] mikep99:
Have you done vol up and power at the red exclamation mark screen?
[Desire General] willdau:
Yeh I have done that and nothing happens, oh and also when i try to use ROM Manager it doesnt make a difference to the red excalamtaion mark its still there?
[Desire General] mikep99:
Do as theghost1233 has suggested above. In rom manager, the first option is to flash clockworkmod. Try that and then reboot into recovery.

If that doesn't work, copy recovery-update.zip from the clockworkmod folder on your sdcard to the sdcard root. Then rename it to update.zip

[Motorola Droid Bionic] ocdtrekkie:
These are the accessories I find absolutely vital for my Droid 1, and hence I'm really hoping we get for the Droid Bionic:

Car Dock - I think Motorola's been pretty good about these, right? But I know some Android devices don't get these right away (Nexus One), but I definitely need one of these from the get-go.

Holster - Dunno about everyone else, but my Droid 1 is too big for a pocket, and I've always preferred the holster for it's ability to cover both sides of my phone when I'm not using it. So this is a must for me as well.

Not sure if I'd ever get a media dock, because removing the case to put it down is just too much of a hassle. For the Car Dock it's worth the effort for usability, but I just don't see it for the media dock. Might as well just plug it in with a cable.

I've held off on buying a case yet because I bought the dock. The dock is being shipped as well as the phone (ordered both this morning) so I'll need to wait to see them before I decide on anything..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] OneStepAhead:
As much as I like the docks, If it means you cant use a case thats pretty much a deal breaker for me. Would be so easy for them to include a removable insert like iGrip does so the docks could be used with or without a case. Hopefully they'll come around eventually.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] robotsforeveryone:
When I ordered over the phone I chose a silicone case and screen protectors.

Then I realized that the Bionic has gorilla glass so no need for protectors. I also forgot that it didn't have a kickstand like my Thunderbolt. So today I walked in and bought their $29.99 Holster/Kickstand. I was told by the store rep that I could bring the case and protectors into the store for a credit.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] OneStepAhead:
I hear that a lot, "the phone has gorilla glass so it doesn't need a screen protector". My experience with gorilla glass is that it can and will scratch. Seems like every iPhone I see is scratched to crap. I guess its a bit stronger then normal glass but it's definitely not scratch proof.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] johnlgalt:
The docks I got with my purchase at CostCo accommodate the Shell holster combo from VZW that is already outsized for the extended battery.

It all depends upon the user. I had my DROID since drop day and never once scratched the glass. I used screen protectors for all of 3 weeks, then gave up on them.

I'm betting that I won't need them for the BIONIC either....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SciFlyer:
You can use the media dock with ext battery and hard case

The bionic fits in the media dock with out taking off the shell/holster combo case I bought from Verizon.
