[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ..::Viny::..:
Hi,

I am planning to buy a 16GB Micro SD Card for X10 Mini, need help on following

1. Can I buy any 16GB micro sd card (class 6 and above) will it work, or it has to be specifically from SE?

2. Once I have 16GB micro sd card, what are the steps to replace the existing card and its contents. Do i need to copy all the folders from existing micro sd to new sd card? What should be the format of SD card, fat, fat32, ext2/3/4 ? Kindly suggest.

Any other technicalities to take care off ?

Furthermore I would like to use APPtoSD either on 2.1 if its easy or else when 2.2 gets on, so do i need to prepare the new sd card specifically for this?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gasgasgas:
1) don't know, I bought a 16GB online from sandisk and it works well, i can help if you can tell how to get the "class"

2) my sd is in fat32 as the old one so no problems here. I suppose that if you move from fat32 to ext* you need to handle permissions somehow. I use a linux distro and when I do this moves I use the command "cp -a" that preserves permission (doesn't matter for fat) and modification date so if some software relies on modification dates of files it doesn't screw up
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ..::Viny::..:
Thanks,

Class is written on top of the card. See the attached image the 6 witten inside the circle shows the class.

Does putting in a 16Gb card reduced the performance or increased the lags?

I've looked around at a lot of places and haven't found a clear answer to this one yet.

I’ve read a lot of different posts about what the best way to do this is. Some say just copy and paste, some say you need to go into recovery mode and Format the SD to Fat32+ext2+swap first and then convert ext2 to ext3, and some say to use Titanium Backup, and there are other opinions too.

I’m really quite happy with the way the phone is set up at the moment and don’t want to mess things up. My X10 mini, has cyanogen mod 7, and clockwork mod. Some of the apps have been moved to the SD card.

Can anyone tell me the current best method?

Thank you ....

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Thehuijb:
I'm also very interested in how to do this.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aloy99:
Basically use whatever format worked for you with your previous SD card. Oh, another forum member from the x10 forums was told by a Sony Ericsson rep that SD cards above class 4 would not give any further speed boost, but that's for the X10. I think that the same should apply for the x10 mini. Higher classes makes for faster loading of media and games moved to SD card, but actual playing(i.e after it has fully loaded) will be no faster. It will make SWAP faster, though.

Did I answer your question? Please press the Thanks button!

I have tried a 32gb card but it dosn't recognise it :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Gvip:
Anyone knows if the new Custom Roms / Kernel make the Mini Pro recognise a 32gb SD card?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aaphid:
Well I checked the original card that came with the phone and it was FAT. The new card was preformatted to FAT32.

I left the new card at FAT32 and plugged them both into a Windows PC and copied the whole lot over. This worked fine.

I suspect that the whole ext2 ext3 thing is to allow the phone to treat that partition as if it were internal memory. Useful if the phone memory is already full.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jimbobcox:
I recently upgraded my sd card from 2G to 4G, I just copied and pasted files. This seemed to work but since the upgrade I am having trouble flashing roms in cwm recovery. I get an error saying zip (bad) installation aborted.

Not sure if it is related but one to think about.
[HTC Aria General] 88crows:
Ok, I have a Branded ATT Aria, non rooted.

I want know the pro's cons' of rooting, or even flashing a new rom, the risks, and if it's possible to take me ADW launcher settings/wallpaper/widgets/apps and back them up to a file, to restore once rooted/re-rommed\?

I love my setup now, just want more memory, faster snappier response, and no more att apps.

I flashed my HTC Pure (att branded) unlocked it to any carrier, and rommed with

HTC-Topaz Upgraded CR192 Mozart

I turn off sense 2.5, I run SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.5, which is laggy.

I run XD Android on it, FROX4 (after turning mobile shell off)

and Android seems to run faster/smoother, but with some serious bugs.

(I.e no camera, call in/out issues, not recognizing SD card, etc etc etc)

How come my Winmo Phone runs android on top of al that smoother than the base program? And why can I get Froyo on a WINMO device and not my dedicated android phone?

Why why why why why why does ATT stick their hands into EVERYTHING?!?!?!

Also resource for a free carrier unlock code for my aria? Had to lie about over sea's traveling to get the one for my Pure, I'm sure ATT only buys that one once in a while...

How Can I get my Aria to Run, Either a newer version of android (preferably Froyo/gingerbread)
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
It all starts with rooting your phone. BTW, the act of rooting your phone will not wipe out any settings or programs you have installed on the stock ROM. It just provides the ability for some programs to run at an elevated privilege to access the phone. Once you are rooted, you can download and use my My Backup Root to save your ADW settings and installed apps so that you can restore them when you flash a new ROM.

Once you are rooted you have 2 flavors of Froyo that you can install on your Aria. The Liberated Aria ROM is the HTC Sense version of Froyo 2.2 but does not contain any of the AT&T bloatware. This ROM was created from the European version of the Aria (Gratia). Your second choice is CyanogenMod (CM) 6.1 which is based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and is pretty much pure Android 2.2 and what you will find on the Nexus One with some enhancements. The CM series is also developing CM 7 which is AOSP Gingerbread, so you will also have that to look forward to.
[HTC Aria General] matt_b:
the devs of this forum have made rooting your phone as safe and easy as possible.

you can get an app that can back up your programs, such as titanium backup.

as far as rooting your aria goes, start here. after that, simply choose your favorite rom (from your post, i take it you enjoy the htc sense flavor of android, so i would suggest this rom.

good luck.
[HTC Aria General] 88crows:
Okay,

Heres where I'm at, I want to root my aria (I know I haven't gotten the balls up yet) But I also don't want to do anything I can't reverse. And while it might seem easy to some, they probably don't bake like a pastry chef.

I do enjoy the sense UI, however I also really like ADW, which is very clean. I like clean and easy to change. I wanna try ADWex however I cannot justify buying it if I don't like it as much, and my aria cant run it smoothly. I feel like I never know if my aria is running to full potential with all that ATT bs, bloatware, and Sense(and htc devout programs) seem to have, a persistance inside the system.

So rooting my Aria will ne needed to get it up to speed, freeing up a load of memory, and CPU usage. Right?

Two: Can I really root, XD android? Thats loaded onto my winmo pure? I'm not really sure if I understand fully how that works. If I'm mistaken and it is already, then nvm. :confused:

Also Is there a real way to turn off windows before booting on android and how do I make it boot xdandroid from being off?

Are live wallpapers able to be used on either my aria or pure with xd android?

Can't make it happen on my own tried a few things but nothing seems to make them show up to use, in the wallpaper option of adw(both) or sense(aria)

Thanks for all your help so far!

Edit: Would Z4 work on xdandroid?
[HTC Aria General] 88crows:
Any help on the live wallpaper? With just the cooked rom, running sense 2.5 (can't remember the name of the rom right off.. something from here at xda, think its an energy rom.) I can run live wallpapers, however I cannot seem to get one to run in spb mobile shell or in xdandroid, why?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cambxo:
Is there any way we can enable it under "low battery" ?
[General Questions and Answers] Gunther2301:
Is it possible to create original artwork or graphics for a live app that runs like a game (maybe similar graphics quality to angry birds) that is not just on a video loop but is actually a running program? Would that be too big to add as a live wallpaper? How difficult would it be to make that type of thing. Would it be tough to make it work equally with landscape and vertical as well?

This is my first post and any feedback would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Hello all =D

I'm despaired by seeing people running nice Android on there Touch Diamond...

I'm explaining to you :

I tryed a lot of android rom (2.x) from XDA, CONNECT-UTB & NeoPeek...

The result is always the same : BATTERY DRAIN --'

I tryed many kernel, modules etc,etc on glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/htc-msm-linux/

I don't know what to do ... WM makes me beeing crazy, like all of Microsoft products...

I really need your help...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cod69account:
You should go on ebay and buy a new battery:eek::eek::eek:

pretty cheap
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] demonroro:
For me, its seems coming from android drivers, because WM runs for 3days without plugging AC Power ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cod69account:
Oh haha, I have the same problem, your not the only one. But in the android porting of the DIAM, this has been known as a issue, and this point everything is being done. The battery is just PART of a list of bugs and issues.

What you can do to limit battery drain

1] Lower settings on android -Screen brightness, -Use Data when needed otherwise keep it off, also with internet.

2]I have gone through many kernels and it all of them vary, but ill let you know what kernel i have [because its ok with the battery]

3]Be patient because this is a project in the making so fixes will come as they are found [camera, video etc]

ALL this is mentioned through the massive thread [I would hate to read it all]

Adjust your backlight (for me, the maximum brightness is too strong - I'm photophobic- so I use the backlight on its 30~40%), or turn off connections like GPS, BT or Wi-Fi, just turn on when it's necessary...

It'll save some batt...

If the problem continues, grab a new batt on ebay...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] demonroro:
I did it, it seems to be better, after 12h with a low utilization, the battery is at 60%.

[Palm Treo Pro] dazultra2000:
Hi guys.

I got a Treo Pro from work a couple of months back but I'm getting really frustrated by the ability to pocket dial.

Every time I pull the phone from my pocket it will have 112 tapped into it. I'm getting really annoyed because it's so easy to do and it happens every time.

Is there any way to disable the ability to do that? I only want the keypad to work once it's been unlocked.

Any ideas?
[Palm Treo Pro] 3skimo:
What has worked for me is a tiny app called 'HookMgr' (freeware).
[Palm Treo Pro] dazultra2000:
Thanks for that. Hookmgr seems to have stopped the keypad being pressed - however, the messages, calendar and start menu buttons are still able to be pressed (though the screen locks automatically straight afterwards).

Any ideas for those?
[Palm Treo Pro] 3skimo:
Glad it helped. Just to point out, some app you had installed was causing the problem and hookmgr somehow solved it (in my case it was VAlert that was the culprit).

Re. start, msg, calendar buttons - the same happens on my Treo Pro. Actually, I don't find this a bad thing at all as I can quickly glance at upcoming appointments or new email without unlocking the device.
[Palm Treo Pro] Mysticdroid:
I have an unlocked evdo palm treo pro and suddenly the screen lock isn't working. going in to the keyguard settings isn't having any effect. the keyboard is locked, but all the quickbuttons (red, green, palm button, etc) aren't locking. what did I do to disable keyguard?

found the fix for the screen lock on the treo plus. just gotta go into settings and redo the screen alignment. found it over at the ppcgeeks forums

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosso22:
Well I was fed up of not having any decent livewallpapers on my hero and stumbled across a livewallpaper called video live wallpaper.

This livewallpaper lets you play a video loop as a wallpaper, having just installed dreamscenes on my laptop, I put two and two together and thought why not.

After a few hours of trying various conversion formats I have found the settings to run dreamscape mpg's (dreamscapes must be in video format not dream.) as a livewallpaper on your hero, this looks really good and makes the hero look like its running really complex live wallpapers!

Anyway it works really well and is very stable and looks really good, so thought I would share it! If you check out the short video you can see a few running!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp3pNwQetds

If you want to do this you will need:-

video live wallpaper app (free from market)

Any video converter (free on download.com)

dreamscences in a movie format (google them) or www.dreamscenes.org

You then simply need to convert the dreamscene and run it with the live wallpaper app.

Ive found that the optimum settings for conversion that give the best look/performance balance are:-

Profile= customisied AVI movie

Codec= XVID

Frame size = 352x240

Bitrate = 12000

Frame rate = 15

You can tweak these values but be warned I found that if you go too high your poor old hero will start locking up, at these values I get no performance issues and battery consumption is on par with other live wallpapers, anyway enjoy :D

Oh and just to be extra nice here are the three from the video, ready converted for you to try if you can't be bothered to convert your own :p

View attachment 505901

View attachment 505902

(Oh yeah btw you need a custom rom to run live wallpaper on your hero, search development if you dont know how!!)

And just so you know, on my phone ADW launcher didnt seem to like this wallpaper so I swapped to launcher pro and it was fine!

If anyone finds any other cool dreamscenes, please feel free to add them to this thread to give people a selection to use.

EDIT...here's a few more I've converted

...and BTW: I love the swing effect when changing home screens, how did you achieve this? What ROM are you using? Is it possible with CM6?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosso22:
ROM is froyo 2.2.1 special edition final with fly kernel 12a overclocked to 710mhz

Transition effects are in the latest launcherpro release

In theory any ROM should work as long as it has the live wallpaper hack included, not sure how they will perform, maybe some will run better than others, if anybody feels like posting performance results on other ROMs that would be useful :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosso22:
No problem my friend, theres also some cool transitions on ADW launcher now as well if you like that sort of thing :)

And a little update for anyone trying the dreamscene videos, there seems to be so sort of problem with the video live wallpaper app, after a few days use it starts to really affect performance on my phone, am thinking some sort of memory leak (Im no dev so not sure really) stopping app then rebooting sorts out the problem.

Anyway I've emailed dev about it but if anyones clued up and knows what there looking at, then any input would be good

Hi,

If I run the Stock RRU for my HTC Desire will it reflash my bootloader and return to the stock HBOOT? (so S-ON returns)?

If not, how do I do this safely?

Thanks

Running an RUU will put EVERYTHING back to stock - you need to be rooted to have S-OFF

So if I run the Rru. My soff root and flash all go back to stock.

Wondering if that will put back for warranty claim
[Desire General] EddyOS:
See my other post ;)
[Desire General] Meaple:
Yes, it puts EVERYTHING back to stock. S-Off returns to S-Off, you become unrooted, your partition tables return to normal (I guess so since it rewrites the Hboot), EVERYTHING!!! I don't see why not for putting it in a warranty claim. To be honest I don't think they will be fussed, as long as you have the stock rom untouched.

I can't seem to get the NAND work properly.

Every step went well, but maybe I forgot something.

Once I flash the ROM I reboot it twice.

When I start marketplace and download apps, they disappear from the download list. They don't get downloaded at all. With another ROM I tried the download part works, but after the install the app doesn't seem to work. After a few times plugging in and out the USB I got an error about my SD-card being ReadOnly. Am I doing something wrong? I didn't manually make partitions or anything on the SD card, should I have done so?

Also I've noticed that after I put files on the SD card and unplug the phone from the PC, astro can't find the files. Really confusing:confused:

Does anyone have the same problem or know how to fix it?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jalshah05:
First of let me tell you that I have never had this kind of problem neither I have heard about this problem. But one thing you can do is use Panasonic SD formatter (Free) to format your SD card. Do not mount your phone on the PC. In place of that remove SD card and use some kind of Card Reader to format the SD card from PC. Also keep Full Erase (ON) in the settings for formatting.

I would also recommend you to do Task29 before flashing new ROMS. After you do Task29 install radio (2.15.xxxx preferred), install MAGLDR 1.11 or 1.12(I would not install 1.13 which is released recently. Wait and watch for that version), After you perform these steps, you should install NAND ROM on your device. Also try and find the Rom which has more versions. What I mean is for newbs like us, we should try roms which have been tested by many other PROs. and also there are plenty of video tuts on how to install NAND rom. Follow them closely.

Here is a good tutorial that might help you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91mnfufny-Q&feature=player_embedded

I did exactly what you said, but I'm still having the same problem. After I installed the NAND rom I connected my phone to my pc and dragged some files on the SD.
