Hack to spool memory to mmc?

1 replies · 2,499 views · Started 19 October 2004

With my PQI 256 (tested, works) i get about 1/2 the transfer speed via bluetooth that I do when I transfer direct to phone memory. I've tried sending small files so I know this series 60 symbian implementation behaves the same way even if the file is smaller than the total available phone memory. Since the system seems to an either/or but not both for incoming files, I'm looking for an hack or app that spools incoming files through the phone memory to the mmc

ex:
Incoming file>check available phone memory>accept at full speed and transfer simultaneously to mmc (possibly calculate time to fill here)>memory almost full>lower speed and maintain transfer.

I have NOT dug through all the symbian docs on this so I am making an assumption here on the behavior. It also may not be possible for the phone to dynamically set a speed reduction w/o tricking the connection quality or ranging.

Actually what I'm really looking for is a patch, since this is a braindead bugfix. Anyone?
:con? :stupid:

Yes that would be really nice specially for small memory phones like 36xxs.
