'a user' posted some info on why CoreDroid gives such high benchmark results with OC kernels. Total placebo effects.

@OP You judge a rom by how smoothly it runs for you, lag and stuff. When on earth are you ever going to use your phone to do something with DNA or play a game where the light dims and brightens over and over again. I mean, its fine for just testing and tuning, but real world results are more accurate.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Agree with the above posts.The only thing you can measure with Quadrant is your patience until you get what you expect! :p

But seriously,benchmarks like nenamark or linpack are far more accurate and represent real performance measurements.I personally run them once in a while to confirm that everything is running ok. :)

I've just bought another HTC HD2 had the power supply on the old one packed up and I can only charge the batteries ( I have 4 now) out of the phone, I've previously installed the Energy Rom and it was working brilliantly with its 16 gig microSd card and Tomtom installed.

My question is, there are links here to HOW TO INSTALL WP7 to HTC HD2, even I can follow them BUT, can I use my old apps "6.5" in the new WP7 OS, I'm not sure if its worth changing to WP7 if the old apps wont work like Skype and such.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks again, I might play around on the phone thats being returned, it wont matter if I brick it lol.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Gustopher:
Sadly not. There are some that have been recreated for WP7 but there is such a disparity in the underlying software architectures that porting just ain't gonna happen...unless someone writes an emulator.

But half of the fun of WP7 is playing with the new apps, some of which are quite sexy and a big step on from WM6.5.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jianototi:
things are moving fast,every thing is possible but as mentioned above WP7 is made to be the new face for Microsoft and the past is past.

as for emulator, it could be the right answer.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TheOnly1:
If you live in Europe then you can try Navigon Select. Pretty basic but does the job quite well and has the same map source as iGo :)

For the USA there is a free sat nav software in the Marketplace called A-to-B. This app has european maps (at least for my country quite good ones!), but turn by turn is US only for the moment. European voice guidance is coming soon.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Osprey00:
I recall reading that WP7 is based on Windows CE 6.0 (R2, I think). I've also read of GPS devices with CE6 that run some CE5.x apps (after unlocking). In fact, no CE version has ever broken compatibility with previous versions. What usually gets in the way is the layer on top of CE: Windows Mobile before and WP7 now. With WM, problems attempting to run an app in a different version than it was designed for are usually due to 1) version checks during installation failing, 2) version checks at runtime failing, and 3) missing DLLs. I have a lot of experience with overcoming all three in order to get WM apps running on plain CE devices (like GPS devices), so, once I install WP7 on my HD2, I'll see what I can do. Microsoft has made a lot of changes to WP7 to cripple the underlying OS (ex. CE6 supports multitasking), so they may have removed or implemented something that I'm not aware of to lock the phone down and purposely break compatibility (afterall, if WM apps can be made to run, it'd undo what they're trying to accomplish, security-wise), but I'll give it a shot.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
there is nothing to stop us having 6.5 apps run on here, both software and hardware are compatible BUT WP7 doesnt use the same set of APIs, so WM6.5 programs would need to be reprogramed (mostly around the UI and hardware interface) to work, of course if they were going to do that then they may as well just write a native program.

This also would mean your phone would need to be unlocked, soooo unless someone developes an emulation layer as a go between you'll not get them working im afraid.

I didn't think it would ever be running HC and I was ok with that. Everyone has done an amazing job and there is much more to come. This Nook is a cool device for sure.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horusofoz:
Hey all. First time poster.

I'm trying to find a way to change the gallery app associated with Camera.

I have Sony Ericcson's Android 2.1 on my Xperia X10.

I've used the Gallery Shorcut to make Gallery appear in my app drawer and am looking for a way to associate it with the Camera app. There is a button in Camera that is supposed to launch Mediascape which I do not want to do.

I have frozen Mediascape and Timescape using Titanium Backup.

Is there a way to associate this soft button with Gallery without flashing my phone?

My Xperia is rooted using z4root.

Any help appreciated :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horusofoz:
Any help

Ok so I haven't had much luck as yet. I went and purchased Vignette only to find it wouldn't open images in Gallery. I've installed QuickPics which I really like and think is better then the default gallery. However my situation isn't much improved.

An idea I've had is to uninstall the Camera app (the one that came with Sony's MediaScape tie in) and reinstall the stock version. The problem is I don't know where I can find an APK for the stock Android 2.1 camera.

Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

Thanks :)

Won't work

Chances are, it wouldn't work.

The Xperia X8 currently only supports up to 16GB of memory. If you go higher than that you would experience problems. You might be able to make it work for a few minutes then it might not be able to read the mem card.

Hopefully, in future updates we could use 32GB cards.

I've searched around, no walk-arounds on this yet. If I were you, I'd stick with 16GB. That's a lot of storage! :D

Hacked SD cards

When I read the comment from someone about only the first 500M being used, the rest turning out to be scrambled rubbish, my first thought was not to blame the phone, but the SD card.

There is a scam on eBay, unfortunately very common, where primarily Chinese/HK sellers are selling small capacity SD cards and USB drives which have had their chips hacked so that Windows reports a much higher capacity.

For example, they are selling tiny SD cards with 500M capacity, but hack it to make it look like a 32G card, which they then sell on eBay as a 32G card. You put it into your computer or phone and the device reports 32G free space.

Then you start copying files on. The first few files are ok, you put one MP3 on it and it plays ok, you conclude the card works and typically then people give the eBay vendor a positive feedback score.

Then you put more files on and note errors occurring once you get past a certain threshold. If you contact the vendor they will sound apologetic (they're not) and ask you to mail the card back to them, typically communicating via email rather than eBay messages. Return postage to China however turns out to be too expensive, so you come to a settlement where they offer you a partial refund.

The amount they offer to refund doesn't make it a good deal! You have a tiny, useless 500M SD card which has been deliberately hacked at the factory to make it seem big.

The scam works on eBay because most people will give positive feedback before they discover the problem. Those who wait and give negative feedback later can have their silence bought by offering refunds. Thus, the eBay vendor retains a high positive feedback rating despite selling faulty products!

To the person who had that complaint... was your microSD card an eBay "bargain" from a Chinese seller?

There's nothing wrong with the card itself, I can format and copy data into it just fine on my PC, but once I plug it into the phone it just kills it.
