There are many threads that are already open which discuss the issue of what class SD card that one should get. Might want to read up on those.

I have a 16gb Class 4 card and it is plenty fast for me. No lag on video playback, etc.

Thanks for the reply. I tried searching for threads using the HTC app but can't work out how to do an advanced search. Will have another paly with it now. Cheers.

You've lost your keys or have problems accessing them - it's your problem, not Google's. This is called security - it's a feature, not a bug.

And you can't delete app for quite obvious reasons: in IT world you should try to not delete anything ever. Want some more practical reason? If you would delete your app and release new one with same package name, but signed with different keys, then people who already downloaded your first app wouldn't be able to install a new one.
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Yeah, I guess y'all are right. OP deleted because apparently 15 years of work in IT and 2 degrees makes me stupid for losing a file. Thank god no one else has ever lost a file :)
[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
Yeah... the android market system is pretty well thought out. But can you imagine if they lost the key to angry birds, or to some corporate app?
[Android Software Development] Brut.all:
This is the reason why there are all of these "Keep backup(s) of your private key." warnings :-)

You know, there may be much, much, much worse consequences of losing private keys. Many devices or technologies are designed to restrict access to themselves using keys of their manufacturers. Lets imagine Apple lose keys they use for app signing: there would be no more apps for any existent device - for millions of them! Same for other technologies: one harddisk failure and thousands or millions of devices around the world become totally useless.

Private keys are one of the most important and most secured things in many companies.

Always :) Never plan on getting old, even though the "50" mark is around the corner! LOL

It wasn't too painful to re-create the app. Now I have my keystore files saved on computer, external drive and burned to CD. Live and Learn I guess :)

Well, I never did find the keystores to my first 2 apps. Thankfully the user interface is really just there for pulling from my hosted databases. I can update the databases outside of Market updates.

Sorry about "whining" about this, but when I first created these apps, i had NO idea how important that keystore file was. I wish the Eclipse Export popped-up a 30 point font dialog box with:

"WARNING! DO NOT LOSE THIS FILE OR YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION!"

I actually thought the keystore was somehow integrated into the apk (which it might be, I don't know, but you still need the keystore file).

I've gone the extra steps and copied my current keystore files to my hosted site AND e-mailed them to myself. That makes 5 copies! LOL :)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
Hi guys,

Please be gentle, I've just come across from the iPhone 4

I have a desire HD which I have rooted and have installed revolution HD ROM. I would like to try LEEDROID'S ROM, my question is how I can simply change ROMS whilst retaining my apps and data?

I am sure there is an easy way around this (only if you know how?)

I am guessing there is a backing up app which you are using?

Your help is much appreciated

Thank you

p.s. Just on this occasion I would like to perform a clean install and retain data/apps on any later rom swaps, can i just go ahead and wipe my sd card?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokerhiih:
One of the best .. titanium backup

http://se.androlib.com/android.application.com-keramidas-titaniumbackup-xCzz.aspx
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
brilliant

that fits the bill perfectly.

can I wipe my sd card then? and then update the ROM? or are there essential files on the sd card?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
There is no need to wipe SD card, do not wipe it, Titanium backup stores your data there.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokerhiih:
Make backup of your rom first .... Really do it.

If something goes wrong, you can go back.

Do not delete the file "clockworkmod" it's your backup

Make a backup of the entire sd on your computer before you delete
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
thank you for your help guys

the reason I want to wipe the SD card is due to data stored on there from apps I have installed. As I am doing a clean install, I may not want to re-install the apps.

But I'll take your advise and not wipe the card. I'll just delete any obvious directories that are not needed.

Many thanks guys,
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silashack:
Buy a 2nd card, and do the new ROM on that, then you can test ;-)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
lol good idea, I need a larger card :-)

this is what I missed about XDA, iPhone forums aren't as helpful :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
OK I am confused now

I have flashed to LEEDROIDS rom, and all of my data and apps are still present. I have done no backup.

Any ideas how I can flash and delete everything and start over?

Many thanks

A May release would also be prefect.

EDIT: Note that I said "a successor for MY G2." As in, it will be the next device I own. I'm not saying that it is T-Mo or HTC's successor to the G2.

Screen is too big.

No keyboard.

How can that possibly be worthy? It isn't even a worthy successor to HTC DREAM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] convolution:
That's so mean to the G2. The G2 is like still in its adolescent stages in life, and you are already talking about replacing the G2. Poor G2. I'll let my G2 live to a ripe old age before replacing it!
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
No hardware keyboard = no replacement.
[G2 and Desire Z General] HotShotAzn:
4.3" is pretty big. I had the HD2 with Android and while the real estate was nice, it was a bit wonky.

I'll keep my eye on it though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Taigatrommel:
My thoughts exactly. One of the primary reasons I bought the Desire Z was because of the decent hardware keyboard. A device without it is definatly not an actual successor for me. The HTC Pyramid looks more like a Desire HD replacement.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
I gladly welcome the larger screen at the higher resolution, and I didn't mind the size of the EVO. Also, they hardware keyboard is but a minor bonus in my book. The Pyramid crushes the G2 in every single way to me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Thracia:
To sorta echo others here, I came to the G2 for the subdued, industrial design, and stayed for the hardware keyboard. This new phone sounds pretty amazing on paper, but HTC is kind of hit or miss with how their phones look. Give me lots of brushed steel and a surprise physical keyboard, then we'll talk.

Beyond that, I don't see how this phone crushes the G2. It's like saying "phones two years from now crush the G2." Well, sure, probably. But not yet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Cheeze[iT]:
Come on HDMI out =)
[G2 and Desire Z General] pmcqueen:
sounds sweet indeed, but I wouldn't even compare it to the G2.

this just sounds like another flashy, "look at my phone it is cooler than yours" device. that's all well and good and I'm sure it's going to be blisteringly fast and have some amazing features that I'll be envious of, but I went to the G1 and then the G2 for reasons that this device won't address.

for me, form follows function... and I can already tell this is going to be catered to the form crowd.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
From a purely technical standpoint, it is better than the G2 in every way (not counting the hardware keyboard since that's hit or miss). I'm ASSUMING HTC won't do anything like Samsung did with the Nexus S and just leave out basic features present in existing handsets.
[G2 and Desire Z General] nivlac978:
I also went to the G2 for the keyboard but I'm not too afraid of losing it. It's seems like all the super phones coming out are ditching the keyboard so I might as well get used to it. Who knows, maybe I will like the once piece design better than a slider or flip. But I'm not going to have to find that out for another 2 years or so.

[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
I don't know how you guys do it! I know it isn't financially viable for everyone to always upgrade to the latest and greatest, but I just have to get a new phone after about 6-8 months. The technology just moves so fast, and I honestly get a little bored!
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
if you didn't get the G2 for the keyboard, than excuse me but why did you get the G2? it's my favorite phone of all time, yes, but the whole point of getting it is the keyboard. otherwise there's like 100 equally or more powerful android devices you could have gotten.
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
so i take it you spend $500 every 6-8 months on a new cell phone? you can't get discounts that often...
[G2 and Desire Z General] znanoDA:
honestly why do you need the latest and "greatest"?
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
I sell my current phone and get about $350-$400 off the price of the new phone. It's better than an upgrade because it doesn't extend my contact.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
That's just what I prefer. I don't mind dropping $150-$200 twice a year to have an absolutely awesome top-of-the-line phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] polarbearmc:
so just curious then, what do you think you'll get for the G2?
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
maybe 200-250 for one in good shape. that's a reasonable price although you could get more, I'm sure....

about the phone, it seems nice but no physical keyboard=no g2 sucessor/replacer/next phone for me and most people. nice try though. i bet the battery life would be terrible although maybe the dual processor MIGHT improve it some (like laptops.... all except my sony viao which a battery hog!:mad:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] romdroid.:
yes like the other mentioned i dont see the point in 4.3' screen its way to big...and it doesnt fit into my pocket, i will have my Z for 2-3 years and then maybe i change but for now i am super happy with it :)

and like somebody else said the technology is going fast forward, if i buy a dual-core phone some months later it will come one more powerful and etc :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] joemm:
Same here, I'm a phone junky and switch about every 6 months, with the G2 I'm pretty satisfied but I am still probably gonna get one of these phones when they come out.

[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
No offence but the G2 is a tough one to beat. Have you seen the specs compared to other phones when its overclocked? Its truely the fasted running phone available. Not to say it doesn't hurt to try another phone just keep your G2! You won't regret it!
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
i agree... I don't see the point of a larger screen or a phone with a higher clocked processor. especially, since you can OC the G2 to almost 2 Ghz anyways. the only thing that has my interest is the fact that a dual core could save some battery life with 2 processors clocked at 600 Mhz... if those specs are true.

i've already been through 1 battery and am on my second one but I should probably just invest in an extended battery. the more you charge these things... the worse they get over time.
[G2 and Desire Z General] suren21:
totally agree to it :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] Vandam500:
All these people saying 4.3" is too big have probably never owned a Evo/HD2. That is the thing I miss most about my Evo, the huge screen. But the others are correct, a "successor" to the G2 has to have at minimum the best features of it and one of those is a keyboard. No keyboard = no successor. At most its a nice alternative.
[G2 and Desire Z General] setspeed:
I agree with everyone saying they need a hardware keyboard, that's how I feel as well. I sure could do with a bigger screen though - all too often I find myself holding my phone up in front of my face like I'm some sort of blind old man! 4.3" would be suh-weet!
[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
I wouldn't say this is a replacement for Desire z/G2. this is a replacement for

Desire HD
[G2 and Desire Z General] [hfm]:
I agree actually. I have not used the physical keyboard nearly as much as I planned on since I started using swype. Its become tedious to have to use it and I'd rather be in portrait more often than not. I'd rather have a lighter phone with a larger screen at this point.

I admit that the few times I've used the keyboard (all rare ssh sessions) its come in handy, but it's not nearly enough to justify it anymore. The trackpad has actually become more important to me as I use that for cursor placement. Nexus S no go, even though the text selection in gingerbread is much improved.

Just my opinion.

I must have missed that pyramid post on engadget as this is the first I've heard about it, and I am very interested.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MixToMax:

2. At this point I will only buy HTC. (Samsung, Moto, or LG is too risky)

3. I actually want a bigger screen and higher resolution

By the time I replace my G2 (~2 years), I fully expect BlindType to be available. Swype is alright, but for me it's not good enough to replace the hardware keyboard. I can *almost* type faster on the default android keyboard than on either swype or the hardware keyboard, but even one typo and and it's a pain to fix compared to using swype or the hardware keyboard.

BlindType will fix that. Of course, the hardware keyboard will still be quite nice for quick SSH stuff (I remapped the keys to make it more usable) and username/passwords.

Lol some of you guys will honestly never be truly happy with any phone you get. If every time you get a brand new phone you are already thinking about buying a new one, something is seriously wrong with you.

looks like there are some cool new phones coming out soon...

I had the G1 working on AT&T... then I had a Nexus One on AT&T for a while... then switched over to tmo with the G2 thinking I wanted my hardware keyboard back... now that I switched back to keyboard... it all seems to be old and clunky compared to my Nexus... didnt realize how use to the touch keyboard I was... now I am thinking about getting the new Nexus S... but if these new phones are coming out soon.. then maybe I just wait a bit longer... hmm...
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheBiles:
You could always swap your G2 for a MT4G. That's what I'm actually thinking about doing being my G2 is getting that "loose" feeling when I press on the screen while the device is closed. It just makes it feel like a cheap whore. :(
