			<description><![CDATA[Man, I posted this on XDA and I still don't got a rep on it yet. Suddenly yesterday, all the images and vids in the DCIM\100MEDIA stopped showing up. HTC Browser jumps right to "My Pictures" on main memory. And 100MEDIA doesn't even show up in the browse folder list... like it always used to. I cant find them in there. No DCIM either. I tried File Explorer, when I use that, I browse to the 100MEDIA folder , but it is showing absolutely NO files listed in there at all. Seriously....  wtf Man? I rebooted the phone, and still they wont show up. Went into camera mode and took a test picture of something, just to see if I could get to it then... no.. didnt work. I thought they got deleted somehow, so I removed the SD card and put it into the computer. Sure enough, every one of my pics and vids are still there, all intact. So I backed them up just in case later. I removed the card from the computer and installed it back on the phone... then rebooted again. STILL they do NOT show up. What the hell gives man? What happened? <br />
<br />
I recall earlier yesterday I was taking a couple pics of a door panel part for the Mustang board I go to. I was going to upload them right after, that's when I found I could not FIND the 100MEDIA folder. When I had the card on the computer, I noticed all the pics were there, EXCEPT those 2 I just took earlier of the door panel. Remember that test picture I took? It was there. I checked on the phone memory and it's not there either. <br />
<br />
It's still doing this. I checked camera settings. Checked settings for storage location...set it to main memory, then switched it back. Rebooted phone again... they still wont show up. <br />
<br />
See , I can take a pic, but once I go on to take another image or leave the camea mode period, I can no longer find the image I just took. The problem is with that stupid folder that REFUSES to show up anywhere on the phone. I do NOT want to master reset this thing. I have way too much saved and installed.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[After generating disappointing results in our tests last spring, AT&amp;T’s 3G network is now the top performer in our 13-city tests, with download speeds 67 percent faster than its competitors'. <br />
Mark Sullivan, PCWorld<br />
<br />
AT&amp;T says it has worked hard to improve its much-maligned 3G network over the last eight months--erecting hundreds of new cell towers, using better-performing wireless spectrum, and souping up its cell sites across the country--and the results of our latest 13-city 3G network performance tests suggest that the network has indeed undergone a drastic makeover.<br />
<br />
After registering the lowest average download speeds in our 3G performance tests last spring, AT&amp;T’s network turned in download speeds that were 72 percent better than the numbers from eight months ago; in our latest tests, AT&amp;T's download speeds were 67 percent faster on average than those of the other three largest U.S. wireless providers--Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon.<br />
<br />
In our tests last spring, AT&amp;T posted an average download speed of 812 kbps (kilobits per second) across 13 cities. In our tests conducted in December 2009 and January 2010, AT&amp;T’s average download speed increased to 1410 kbps.<br />
<br />
AT&amp;T's download speeds in New York City were three times faster in our latest tests than in our tests last spring; in San Francisco, the AT&amp;T's download speeds were 40 percent faster.<br />
<br />
The AT&amp;T network’s reliability improved dramatically, too: Last spring, PCWorld testers obtained a usable broadband connection with AT&amp;T only 68 percent of the time. In our latest tests, testers connected to AT&amp;T successfully in 94 percent of their attempts.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://images.pcworld.com/news/graphics/189592-laptopchart2x_original.gif" border="0" alt="[Image: 189592-laptopchart2x_original.gif&#93;" /><br />
<br />
Verizon Wireless, which turned in the best all-around performance in last spring's 3G network testing, and Sprint, which finished a close second, both continue to perform well, according to our latest test results. Our tests found that Sprint’s network delivered download speeds nearly identical to those we measured eight months ago in the 13 test cities; Verizon’s download speeds decreased by 8 percent overall.<br />
<br />
In the past year, Sprint and Verizon--like AT&amp;T--have seen a marked increase in the number of 3G smartphones that rely on their networks. Our speed results suggest that Sprint is upgrading its network capacity fast enough to meet the demand, while Verizon may be having trouble keeping up. Nevertheless, both networks’ reliability (the likelihood that a user can connect to the Internet at a reasonable speed) improved in the most recent tests over how they fared last spring.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Windows Mobile users looking to download Skype may have to dig a bit deeper to find the necessary .cab file for installation. According to Skype’s website, the Windows Mobile version has been removed because it does not offer the same rich user experience that is available in Skype for the iPhone and Skype for Symbian, an unusual reason that leaves us scratching our heads. Skype does not indicate when the Windows Mobile version will return, if ever, and it is possible that Skype may have chosen to cease development of the older Windows Mobile version<br />

			<description><![CDATA[The fate of the mighty HTC HD2 seems to be getting murkier by the minute: Microsoft UK VP Alex Reeve said last week that an upgrade to Windows Phone 7 Series might be left up to hardware partners, but now Natasha Kwan, General Manager for Microsoft's Asia Pacific Mobile Communications Business says the 1GHz handset "doesn't qualify because it doesn't have the three buttons" required by WP7. Making matters even less clear, we asked Microsoft's Director of Consumer Experiences Aaron Woodman about the HD2 directly on The Engadget Show, and he politely declined to tell us about the device's upgradability, and said that WP7's final required specs would be revealed at MIX '10.]]></description>

			<guid isPermaLink="false">http://smartappsworld.com/thread-at-t-ceo-warns-that-metered-pricing-on-the-way</guid>
			<description><![CDATA[Comments made by AT&amp;T CEO Randall Stephenson during a recent investor conference indicate that metered data pricing is likely in the firm's future. Stephenson didn't say exactly how data pricing would be altered, nor when any change would take place, but he did say that the company will charge heavy users of its mobile data network more than those who use it infrequently. Stephenson also said that Apple's iPhone will be a key product for AT&amp;T for "quite some time," which calls to question just how long the exclusive distribution agreement will last between Apple and AT&amp;T. Stephenson reiterated that the company is taking measures to shore up its existing 3G network and believes HSPA will serve for several more years. "We're not in a tremendous hurry on LTE," Stephenson said. Competitor Verizon Wireless plans to trial two LTE markets late this year, with preliminary launches taking place in 2011.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Today the Wall Street Journal reports that Sony is going to develop "a smartphone capable of downloading and playing PlayStation games" in order to combat Apple's growing hold on the mobile gaming market. The smartphone (along with a second multimedia device alo in development) will be able to connect with Sony's online gaming and media platform, which will go live in the U.S. later this month. The Sony Online Service will offer much of the same content being offered by Apple's iTunes Music Store, but Sony believes that it can differentiate by permitting a range of devices (not just phones) to access its catalog of games. Sony says the games will mostly include older games that are compatible with the original PlayStation. Sony is working more actively with Sony Ericsson to develop the handset, which is expected to launch later this year. Sony has indicated that smartphones are going to play a much more strategic role in the company's future. Details about the smartphone, such as price and features, weren't shared.<br />
