I get that, but whats with the wanting of this new thing if its not even meant for a phone; I mean I wouldn't want something clunky and literally designed for something bigger on a 'tiny' device. It would just be wrong. I fail to see how even those who continually ask for new shiny things would overlook the real incompatabiliteis with a phone. I can see asking for Gingerbread, but even that's a bit much. I mean, we have Froyo, and now my brother with his fancy incredible is actually jealous of my phone. I think things are great, and I understand the desire for new shiny things, but honeycomb really isn't for phones, so why be ignorant of that?
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
keep in mind though...froyo wasn't meant for our specific phones either...we're all running a leaked version. For all we know, after a year of addl development the next ota update may be honeycomb...
[Fascinate General] ace5198:
honeycomb is for tablets!!
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
3.0's UI is meant to be able to scale down to phone sizes. The current developer preview doesn't work exceptionally well when that's done to it (it's buggy, but obviously meant to), but it's not anywhere near a finished product (it's really meant to show the APIs).

Android also isn't being forked, there isn't going to be a Phone version and a Tablet version, future phones will be running the 3 series (they might wait for 3.1, but they will run 3). They will pretty much have to if any of them want to use the newer dual-core CPUs that should be just about to hit the phone segment.

Also, don't forget that Android 3.0 adds a fair bit of new APIs, not all of which are meant exclusively for tablets (there's a fair bit of HW acceleration stuff, IIRC).
[Fascinate General] ace5198:
im sure that it could be scaled down to use on a phone.. and actually i believe somewhere i seen that it was.. but everything ive read said its desinged specifically for tabs.. im sure there will be a 3.1 or 2.5,,6,7,8 or whatecer for the new apis.. but everything ive read says 3.0 is for tabs.. im not saying im right.. but thats just what ive read
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
The new user interface is designed for tablets, as well as parts of the new APIs. Nothing prevents you from replacing the launcher, and hopefully by the time Honeycomb stabilizes, the new Launcher won't just force close at lower resolutions (but this isn't meant to be a preview of the new interface, but of the APIs).
[Fascinate General] superchunkwii:
I don't understand you question.

Honeycomb is simply the natural progression of Android. Hence why its 3.0. Eventually all Android devices will be on 3.x of some kind just as iOS was able to merge its variant it made for the iPad with the rest of the family.

Google had a separate team continue to small upgrades in the 2.x line while the AAA team worked on a tablet enahnced 3.0 Honeycomb variant.

I'm sure as this year moves (early next) on we'll see a 3.1 version come out that has the appropriate scaling features to handle screens of all sizes.

This is evidenced by the same Gmail app being used in both. Just different views based on overall screen size. Also, 3.0 and 2.3 have code to allow devs to make different views based on screen size. The base code is there, its just now gotta be merged to be one line again.

So, why do I want honeycomb? I don't. I want to continue to be using the latest version of Android, what its build version is is not important. (2.3, 2.4, 3.0, 3.1) As long as its made to work with the hardware I have and adds improvements, I want it.

Stop the debate:

http://www.bgr.com/2011/02/03/google-will-not-bring-honeycomb-to-smartphones/
[Fascinate General] superchunkwii:
All that says is 3.0 i.e. Honeycomb won't be on phones. I am sure a later 3.x version will once the code has been merged from 2.x.
[Fascinate General] ghdtpdna:
I thought 3.0 is where we finally get hardware accelerated UI, is this correct?
[Fascinate General] crookshanks:
And this thread is about Honeycomb... Not 3.x versions.
[Fascinate General] superchunkwii:
Honeycomb is 3.0

Misread somethin'
[Fascinate General] gabenoob:
Hmm alright; what I was asking is that where it stands now it is a Tablet OS, why would anyone want something like that on a phone. As shown in the link, google does not mean for Honeycomb to be brought to phones (3.0) but maybe at a later date a later variant of the 3.1 series will.

The original question I had in mind was why would anyone want it, in its current state, on a phone, as I've seen threads asking for it; and for the life of me I can't find a good reason.
[Fascinate General] crookshanks:
I was referring to your "later 3.x versions" comment. This thread was about why anyone wanted 3.0 specifically, not later versions.
[Fascinate General] superchunkwii:
Absolutely right, my post was to the validity of the entire discussion as its obvious 3.0 is just the initial tablet offering and as Android continues through 3.x it will be on phones as well.

Basically, I find the entire constant discussion here, BGR, other sites about Honeycomb being a Tablet OS and why is Google diverging Android to just be stupid. To me the version "3.0" should have been enough to satisfy everyone that eventually features you see in Honeycomb will be on phones. Like Google's going to lock themselves in 2.x for the rest of Android phone's life.
[Fascinate General] crookshanks:
Honestly I don't understand it. Other than a very small number of users, myself not included, do people really see a big difference in the use of their phones? I use mine for calling, texting, e-mail and occasional web browsing. Other than flash support, I haven't noticed any ground breaking improvements over DJ05 with DL30. I can't imagine Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Lucky Charms or Poptart making a huge difference in the day to day use of my phone either.

Or maybe I'm wrong and Honeycomb cures cancer.
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
Ok, So if DL30 wasnt meant for our phones, which IS Froyo. Why is it a VZW leak? And not a leak for another phone that was ported over? Get your facts straight and stop spreading false information.
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Wow...tard over here. DL30 leak is not for our phones...HENCE THE WORD LEAK. There is no finished version that has came out for our phones. Go back and read my entire post tool...before you make yourself sound like the dullest one in the shed.

Edit: and so I can lower this down to an even more basic of levels of understanding for you...DL30 leak is a test program of froyo for the fascinate. It is not the finished product. If "DL30 Leak" was meant to be on the phone, then flash yours back to stock and wait and see if you get a notification for an ota update k?
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Right, cause name calling fixes things...
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Wasn't name call per se...more like utilizing metaphors and smilies in a demeaning manner...
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
You sir, are seriously an idiot.
[Fascinate General] lowtech80:
I think that was a rather intelligent comment. Funny no doubt.
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Damn you figured me out :rolleyes:
[Fascinate General] cstrife999:
Actually I believe 2.4 will be the next phone version. I think google is avoiding that 3.0 is a tablet OS. Even the link posted shows no real evidence it will be plus all the rumors of this 2.4 version.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
I am trying to dual boot WP7 NAND and Android SD...

I am following the instructions this YouTube Video: HTC HD2 Partition a micro sd card to install Android and WP7 in the same card but I am stuck on the second part where you have to reset your phone and insert your SD card in the reader to see the WP7 partitions.

When ever I reset WP7, insert SD in reader, and open Partition Master, It only shows 200MB, it doesn't show the unallocated partition. Basically, when I insert the SD card, I only see One Partition, instead of Two partitions (fat 16 and unformatted)

Can someone please explain to me how I can solve this problem?

(I am using ScanDisk 8 GB class 2 sd card.)

PS: I have tried to search this forum extensively, but I couldn't find any answers (I am not sure what other search term to use at this point.)

UPDATE: If you are having problems seeing the WP7 SD partition on your computer, don't use an SD adapter with the built-in card reader on your PC or Laptop, use an external SDHC card reader instead. You can buy one on eBay for like 5 bucks or less, OR you could get one at your local electronics/hardware store for no more than $15.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
So you do have 200meg AND Unformatted partitions ??

@1:22 it shows the Unformatted Partition being deleted which means it becomes unallocated..

You need to delete the Unformatted partition..

Then continue on with video..

i assume your using the tutorial from [REF] Tutorial: How to partition sd card to run wp7 and android from same sd card

and following the Third Method.

If you dont see an Unformatted Partition -(no idea why you shouldn't - if it an 8GB card there has to be something beyond the 200meg partition) i'd re-format the entire SD...and start again.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
I have reformatted my SD card several times, using (SD formatter), but I keep getting the same results.

Like I said, I am only getting One Partition and that is the 200MB partition on my SD card, whenever I flash WP7 (even when I reset WP7, I get the same thing.) -- I am sure that I followed the instructions correctly, well, up to the point where I got stuck.

If anyone have any other ideas, please share...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
Ok, so after a fresh format and before trying wp7 re-install you're getting an 8GB sd card right?

If yes - start again by reseting phone in wp7 with your sd card installed. (settings/about/reset your phone)

let it reboot back into wp7.

goto settings/about

What size do you see under:

Total Storage

It should list 7.xxGB (for your 8GB Sd)

If it doesn't its more than likely that you have an sd card not compatiable for wp7 sorry.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
OK, now I see

Total storage: 7.20 GB

Available storage: 6.82 GB

Is this normal?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
definitely - and a good sign.

do you have easeus partition installed on your pc, if not install it.

re-set your phone again and stop at the MAGLDR screen. (Hold Power button down)

remove SD and load into PC.

Open easeus partition.

You will see a 200Meg partition and a Unformatted partition....

Continue with Tutorial.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
Sorry, for the late responses...I appreciate your patience.

OK, I just reset the phone again, and I have inserted my SD into my PC, and loaded easeus partition; BUT soon as I insert the SD, I get windows message that I need to format the disk in drive __: before I can use it.

Now, in easeus partition, all I see is one unallocated 200MB partition (logical)

Any idea what's going on here?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
Well, at the very least that partition should be Primary and not logical...

sounds like a faulty sd card

In EaseUs partition delete all partitions under the sd list. (in pic below i'd delete all 4 partitions shown)

ie in your case the 200Meg and anything else listed (but only for the sd) dont want you deleting your windows OS.

Apply changes so you have one 8GB block of unallocated space and then try re-formating the sd card back to origional 8GB FAT32.

Apply changes...

remove and re-insert into PC, check and make sure windows doesn't report errors.

dump a few files onto the sd and try reading them. (pics or movie)

Providing all good to this stage, repeat re-set phone process..

reboot into wp7 and check /settings/about.... if 7.xxGB Total Storage, remove sd and check with windows... if errors like you just stated i very much suspect a faulty sd card...

If you can take a screen shot (sniping tool in windows 7) of the sd card listing the Disk it would help

like this

This is potentially what you want to end up with (mines a 16GB sd)

One final thing i would try is re-installing wp7 (DWI.exe from PC.)

(I'm running out of ideas due to my limited knowledge sorry) :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
Thanks, but it's getting late over here, so I'll give it a try and I'll get back to you later today or tomorrow (if time permits)

Again, thanks for your help...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
I've given your suggestion a try, but no luck yet. I even tried it with my other SD card that is loaded with Android, but no luck. I think this may have something to do with my computer or something totally unrelated to my SD.

I'd really love to use WP7, while also having my Android.

So, If anyone else have any ideas, solutions, suggestions, please share.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
well... you do have 2 sd cards i see, so worst case is you use one for wp7 and one for android.

Means you'll have to swap them out every time you want to change OS.. but it should work...

As WP7 loads into NAND you'll have to load an Android built that is SD MAGLDR compatible.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
Hey, Canterbury

I found the problem and solution. The problem was with the built in card reader in my laptop. I guess it isn't powerful enough to read the WP7 partition or something; but anyways I found a solution. I used an external USB SDHC card reader to view the files on my SD instead. So now I can see all partitions on the SD :)

Thanks anyways for trying to help me. I really appreciate it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
awesome - good to know you've found a solution, now you can have both wp7 and android goodness.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
Well actually, I have another problem...I don't have wp7 and android goodness; because I can't get DarkStone SuperRAM 1.5 to work with WP7, or any other build for that matter.

Do you have any build suggestions, or general ideas, about this issue?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
I firstly assume your on one SD running WP7, and have partitioned your sd for android.

i use Cope's SD GB-CM7

As your using MAGLDR to boot, (instead of running wm6.5 and executing haret.exe) you MUST use an SD Android build that can support MAGLDR usually using a modified rootfs.img and startup.txt files. (Usually you'll have to copy and replace the two files manually)

Ref here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=913964 regarding whats going on. If your a linux buff, the instructions may be of use, but further down the page is what you need...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] WOOZ!E:
Yeah, you know what? I tired Cope's SD GB-CM7, but GPS doesn't seem to work, and I really need that to work. It's a good build, but I want to be able to have the full android experience via DarkStone's SuperRAM froyo 1.5. So far, I have only been able to boot DS SR Froyo, but then it freezes and you can't do anything else. I guess I'll have to keep searching for clues, or I'll have to go back to dual booting WM/Android

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TREVOR71:
Ok, I've had this phone for 2 months now. It's the 2.1 Eclair. It used to mount just fine, but now all it does is charge the phone when I attach the usb to the computer. I've eliminated the cord as the issue since my mom's captivate mounts just fine with it. I thought it was originally my computer, which is now Windows 7, but again my moms' captivate mounts just fine. It also won't mount to my other computer running XP. I've installed and uninstalled every samsung driver available but I still cant' get it mounted in either debugging mode or nondebugging mode. I also thought it might be a software issue since I had rooted the phone so I unrooted and did a hard reset. Still no mount! I want to get mounted, and not just by my wife! :)

At this point I would be happy to simply load apps via the sd card but I can't seem to successfully edit the settings.db file, either. Any help with mounting the phone or simply being able to load nonmarket apps via the sd card would be much appreciated.

Alternatively, here's a question to those much smarter than I. If I can't get the phone to mount via usb cable, how can you install a rom or nonmarket apps without attaching the usb cable?

Thanks!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mengbo:
1. you can try to download a rom via wifi using internet browser. it will be stored in your \sdcard\download folder. also you need to download update.zip into your sdcard root folder.

2. shut down your phone and reboot into recovery, load the new recovery. (you may need to load twice)

3. flash the new rom by installing the zip file in your download folder.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gothpunk4christ:
I believe I found the issue.

Disable auto-sync.

Settings > Accounts and Sync > Deselect the auto-sync option.

My wifes phone had never been able to connect and mount via computer on the cable to the PC. Different PCs, different cables, everything. My phone always worked. First thing I ever did when reinstalling a new ROM was disable auto-sync. Soon as I disabled her auto-sync, the option to mount came right up.

Hope this helped.

*edit* I spoke too soon. Exchanging the phone tomorrow. It has other issues too...

From reading other posts the battery voltage should be around 3700 - 4200. I've noticed that my voltage range is about 3522 to 4215. I didn't think the phone would work with anything less then 3700 let alone go down to 3500. Funny part is that the last 10% of the battery last Hr's

? Whats everyone else getting for battery voltage. Is the stock range 35-42

? whats with the last 10% and why does it take so long to discharge.

I'm Using OMJ 4.5 ROM along with system panel to measure voltage and a stock 3.7 = 1500 battery.
[EVO 4G General] Adam1422:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex98uk:
I flashed my standard Desire and one of the first instructions was to enter Hboot by holding down "volume down and the power button". I would then attach the phone to my PC and install the custom drivers.

However, I am now attempting to do the same on my brothers HTC Desire HD, but nothing seems to happen when holding down volume down and power. It just boots normally. We are attempting to install the Unrevoked stuff. His DHD is a 3 Mobile one (and shows a 3 mobile splash screen at the start).

Any idea how one gets into hboot on an HTC Desire HD?

Current version:

Version 3.5

Multiple firmwares, multiple battery versions - means a confusion of frameworks! Tried to keep it simpler by keeping the version number to represent changes to the icon content of the framework, and putting the FW version/ batt mod in the filename.

So, there are currently a total of 12 variants of v3.5, representing the combinations of FW version, battery mod and reduced notification bar icon size. The filename should tell you exactly what you are getting!

To keep things simpler, I have uploaded to 4shared. Just follow the folder structure, and you should find the version you want!

DOWNLOAD LINK

Installation instructions

As we don't have a custom recovery yet, the easiest way to put these on the device is via ADB, either over USB or wifi. As always, back up any important info/apps first. Once connected, use the following ADB commands:

adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/
adb push services.jar /sdcard/
adb shell
su
stop
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
cp /sdcard/services.jar /system/framework/
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
sync
start

These are primarily based on, and inspired by, the excellent Desire themes by Esk0dro0id and Alexdiaz, so credit where it's due. Feel free to modify and tweak this however you want, just maybe acknowledge where it came from ;)

Needless to say, only attempt this if you are comfortable modifying system files. As we are using the SDE for this, the potential risk of bricking/ irreversible damage is low, but you should still have some idea what you're doing!
