[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mwc115:
I've been playing with different android builds for almost a year. Before NAND I've always had mixed luck and after playing with many radios and builds I ended up using Shrubcraft's stock build as the only reliable one I could find.

Finally, I put Cotulla's first stable Desire NAND on at the beginning of the year and it has worked fine until recent I started having a couple freeze issues while using certain apps.

So here is my problem... I've caught up to speed with the new magldr and tried to flash 3 different newer builds. HyperDroid-CM7.v1.0.3, NexusHD2-Gingerbrad v2.4, and HyperDroidGBX-v10. NONE of them work.

All give me problems with robo voice, which I can solve by shutting off key tones. After that I'm still stuck with sluggishness, sleep of death, and random lock ups (twice while only trying to run the initial setup).

I've tried formatting my sd card, cleaning all of the data/cache with AD recovery, trying 4 or 5 radio combos with each. I've even looked through peoples posts and found the exact ROM/radio combo that they are saying is stable and trying those with no luck.

I'm running out of ideas. Any thoughts?

Currently:

HTC HD2 - TMOUS

Radio: 2.12.50

ROM: Cotulla's stable Desire NAND

I just updated my phone using keis to the offical 2.2 froyo release. And like a dumb*** when i went to install Cognition 4.2.2 i hit wipe internal system data. Is there anyway to get this data back?? Thanks for any help! All i want to do is install cogntion 4.2.2 now...but i cant do it unless i do it manually which i have no idea how to do that, just clockwork is all i ever used.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Weselers:
GO TO STOCK FIRST unless the rom doesn't require that (check instructions)

root your phone, I usually use the one-click program u can find in the original sticky in this forum, DL rom manager. Flash CWRecovery, DL rom you want. Reboot into recovery install from sdcard, choose right file, bam you're done.

FYI people usually don't like when u post questions in developement area. :D

I originally posted this in Q&A, but no hope of an answer there. Hopefully I can get that thread deleted.

I may have missed this in my searches, but I did search. Is there a resource somewhere that I can follow to learn to modify a widget? I want to change the images used in the headset toggle widget. That blue/white is killing the aesthetics of my phone.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Mr. Apocalypse:
I'm assuming you want to change that icon??

Search for a program called APK manager.....you can use it to easily extract the apk....make your modifications.....re-compile the apk with ease..... make sure you got Java installed
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jRi0T68:
Thanked! My first ever mod. Just have to tweak the images a little to get them perfect and I'll be able to post it. Worked with no alpha channels in the images, but that's ugly. Just have to remove the backgrounds and it's golden. :D

Hey everyone, I'm finally switching to a custom rom today after months of putting it off for various reasons. Before I start I want to check one last time I have the order correct:

(I've already installed the Samsung drivers on my PC)

1. Flash EC05 modem with Odin (turn on USB debugging and put phone in download mode)

2. Put the rom .zip file on root of sdcard

3. Install 1 click root/recover with CWM3 (not sure if I need to use .5 or .6 - do I want the newer one since I'm going to a new rom, or the old one since the phone is on DK28 now?)

4. Flash rom from CWM

5. Enjoy

Do I have all that right?

Also this method will leave my contacts/data/apps intact, right? (I have them all backed up anyway, but I'd rather not have to restore them manually)

Thanks in advance! :cool:

So is it just me, or is there no thread with a poll on what people believe is the best rom out now? I've ben looking with no avail. This brings me to the question, does it not exist because we aren't allowed to have a poll like that, or am I the only one who is interested?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webstar1:
U find no thread because it is biased. Most of the rom's have there own pros and cons. so just close this thread
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonnic:
That's a negative way to look at things. Why is it that people in XDA are so quick to trash ideas or questions?.

It may be biased, but in the end EVERYONE has chosen a rom to have on their phone, so why not share the stats with everyone else? Might help some others decide which of the many ROMs to try out.

Using Darky 10 Final and waiting for CyanogenMod 7 Final
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason123420:
Darky 10 is good, cm7 is better if you can handle 12 hours of battery life... I'm on ultimate 8.2 right now and I have actually kept it on for over a week.... oh and don't forget about the goodness that is MIUI. Install that and its like a totally different phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robin786:
i've tried Darky's ROM up to 9.5, Doc's ROM & now on MIUI..i think, every ROM got it's own strength which is amazing given that the ppl that manufacture the phones can even give a decent update even after few months..

but..MIUI is totally different and cool to use! Even though the battery drain is visible, maybe need a couple of charge cycles to stabilize..all in all, it's refreshing n can keep me away frm flashing at least for few weeks (or till the next update..hehe:D)..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
i think this is a good poll !!

if you can find out how to edit it, and adjust when new ROMs come out.

this could save a lot of people posting pointless threads about what ROM to choose and why.

they can see what the majority of people go for, and if we can write a little explanation of what ROM we chose and why, it could be beneficial :D

I chose MIUI - it has developed a hell of a lot in the past few weeks, all the main features work, there is updates weekly without fail, Very helpful team of devs and the ROM is super nice and is nothing like any other ROM out there !!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Niare:
For a long time I was very happy with darky 8.x but lately I have been trying out almost all the roms in the poll and since a couple of weeks back I have been a extreamly happy user of MIUI.

[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
Just got my demo test unit from motorola today FINALLY after weeks of waiting. Anyways I am testing out some applications that we will use in house but my biggest thing is I would like to use a mouse on it.

We have an application thats a lot of quick point and clicks and the employees / doctors would perfer a mouse. I myself could care less as I think its fine without.

I got a microsoft BT mouse synced but it wont connect. It shows it as an input device too.

Any ideas on this?
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
Yes, return your Xoom and get an actual PC. The ASUS Slate 12" Tablet sounds like exactly what you need/want.
[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
That would work great, but its bigger/heavier and were focusing on the internal lte when its available. Since some employees are on the go and what not wireless isnt always around. Ontop of deploying wireless thoughtout a 200,000 sq building would cost alost more then the $20/month data we get.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
By the time your employees get done unpacking all of the necessary **** they will need to set up and use a "tablet" with their keyboard and mouse... they might as well be using a laptop or netbook.

As for covering 200,000 SQ of building with wifi you might want to check out the D-Link DES-1228P which is a 24 port PoE web smart switch that will run the DWL-3140AP. It's a small hockey puck sized AP which can be placed anywhere in your building in conjuction with the POE switch. All you need to do is toss CAT5 and you're done. You will get seamless coverage from AP to AP as the switch hands off the client.

The switch is about $400 or less, and the AP "pucks" are about $99 ea.

You could cover tons of building for $1k out of pocket :)

I'm not just trying to rain on your parade, in all seriousness... I just have to shake my head and ask why someone would want so badly to turn a tablet experience back into a traditional PC experience. Just get a PC.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
PS: It would probably be cheaper still to just pick up a MiFi unit or something like that, then you don't have to depend on LTE inside the device.
[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
mifi is $50 a month... where 3g/lte is $20 a month . I understand what your saying but being mulitpile floors and a cisco house ap's wont be cheap. I would need at least 12 or 13 ap's for decent covereage. Our building is like a bomb shelter here so wireless doesnt travel that well. The Ap's we use are roughly $600. Have plently of space on my cisco switch to handle them so thats covered. 3g doesnt cover in the building but 4g covers the entire building and does it well.

+ injectors , cable, labor its a $10,000 project. Not including the tablet PC which you can figure 3-5k depending on what I go with. Which isnt bad but. Im looking at $1200 a year for service on 5 tablets. + or - $3000 for 5 devices. Then I dont have to worry about if there is wireless when there out of our building. I really just think overall its easier and less stuff to deal with.

Anyways back on topic has anyone been able to get a BT mouse working on a xoom or any other android tablet for that matter :)
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
All other cost and etc. points aside, there just isn't mouse/cursor support for 3.0, and I'm assuming were a good long way out, if ever, from seeing it implemented in a way you can rely on daily in a job.
[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
Ya thats what I was kinda thinking but was confused since it did see that it was an input device.

Thanks for the input :)
[Xoom General] ruinah:
I disagree here. There are times when I think I really want to use a Mouse. It's not 100% of the time to categorizing it the way you are doing it is not really fair. 80% of the time I don't need or want a mouse or keyboard but the other 20% I want the flexibility to do with the tablet what I want to do with it so it fits MY needs. A netbook is not what I want.
[Xoom General] Facegarden:
Guys, can we stop replying to threads by just telling people what they want is a bad idea?

I think being able to use a mouse would be awesome. If you have a mouse, you can VPN into your home PC (or use Citrix) and use real software on the occasions you need it. Everyone says "get a real PC" but I'd only want a real PC like 1% of the time, and the rest of the time I want a tablet. That 1% may not be a lot, but the more utility I get out of it, the better.

That said, I'm sure this will be a possibility soon. CyanogenMod on the Nexus One (and likely others) supports using a bluetooth mouse. A cursor shows up and everything works great.

So... whenever Honeycomb goes AOSP (which is taking a looooong time), we'll probably see customized versions of Honeycomb with mouse support.

So it will probably happen. It just may be a while.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
I didn't say it was a bad idea, I said it's not going to happen anytime soon.

And the example you give unfortunately really isn't going to help him. Do you expect him to buy multiple Xooms, root them all, install custom software or a completely custom ROM on all of them to enable BT mouse support, then hand them to the employees? That's just not gonna happen lol.
[Xoom General] Facegarden:
You mean... a tablet, a bluetooth mouse, and a bluetooth keyboard?

Show me a touchscreen netbook that can be used while you're walking as well as it works on a table. A tablet + KB + Mouse means you can walk around with the tablet and use it in your hands, or you can place it on your desk and use it like a PC if you'd like. I had a netbook and it actually wasn't very good for either of those - I'd still get a BT mouse if I needed to use one, and they're impossible to use while walking around.

Labor man, Labor. Sounds like this is a hospital. Concrete walls, lots of metal. You'd have to route an AP to every corner of the building. Thats a lot of work. However, I don't see how 4G would penetrate any better in most hospitals, so maybe its more like a doctor's office. Still, covering a 200k sf building with working wifi costs way more than $1k.
[Xoom General] Facegarden:
Depends. Installing custom roms takes maybe an hour max if you're used to it. If they are designing this software to be used in Doctor's offices, its possible that they are getting paid a lot for it. Pay a tech $20 an hour to install a ROM, charge $20 more for the end product, done. Or don't charge extra, its still only $20.

I work for a company that is considering replacing our custom touchscreen industrial testers with Xooms. In that case, we'd buy a xoom, install some software, and resell them for $2000 plus whatever bluetooth sensors our customers buy. Really we're just selling Xoom software for $1200, but its all the same. If we had to install a custom ROM it would still be worth it. Besides, it can probably all be done with a script (i'm not sure of that though).

[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
Dell makes a cheap laptop that the screen turns around and it becomes a tablet. Just an idea...not saying you have to go this route.

Sent from my EVO
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Its not that its labor intensive to root and install custom software on the Xooms, its that no matter what people say, a rooted phone (tablet) with custom ROM is never going to be as stable or user friendly as the stock software when it comes to handing it to a person who doesn't know what they're doing.

We're talking about having to install completely custom software in order to use a mouse. I think there are easier ways to accomplish this. Maybe I'm crazy.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
You're right. Settle for a stylus.
[Xoom General] BrokenPixel:
I have a dell streak when I had Steve's 1.1.1 Rom I did sync a magic mouse and had pointer and everything, I was running ADW Launcher by then.. perhaps is a Launcher thing? I also have a BT keyboard with a built in "mouse joystick" and when I sync the kb I am able to use the "pointer mouse" but it just doesn't show as a pointer on the screen, but when swype is up i can click and drag the mouse and see the line traces. Again this is running Froyo 2.2.
[Xoom General] Magnesus:
I saw mouse used on Notion Ink Adam without any problem. But that wasn't on Honeycomb. I need mouse for precise work through VPN (I plan to use tablet on notes stand on my piano to manage music sequencer through VPN). If honeycomb doesn't have a mouse cursor my plans are ruined. ;)

Is capacitive stylus precise enough to - let's say - select something 8 pixels wide and 8 pixels high?
[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
Thats good to hear. Now if I can get cyanogenMod on my thunderbolt that would be even better news :D
[Xoom General] ChrisN1313:
ding ding ding :) But I dont know why but 4 g covers the entire hospital very very well. There are 1 or 2 dead spots but it covers 98% of the area, which is why I was looking at a tablet in the 1st place.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
So you flashed a kernel but not a Rom? The kernel probably wasn't compatible with the stock rom.

I'm assuming you didn't make a backup first?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
Power down the phone, hold volume down and press the power button to power it back on and get to your bootloader screen. Does it say s-off at the top? If so, try using the volume button to go down to the recovery option and see if the phone boots into the custom recovery that unrevoked installs on your phone. If the recovery was not installed properly, it will take you back to the white bootloader screen.

Try that and tells us what happens so we can point you in the right direction.

If you did flash a kernel, and not just downloaded one, then plainjane has a good point and unrevoked did properly root your phone with a recovery. Otherwise you wouldn't have been able to flash the kernel. What kings kernel exactly are you referring to, and did you actually flash a kernel after rooting?
