[General Questions and Answers] TJThaddeusG:
What is the purpose of a nightly (high frequency of updates) build?

I'm currently using AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB233 CM7, but used to use HD2ONE v3.6.

Apart from rapid updates, why not just release something monthly that might not have as many bugs as the nightly release? HD2ONE seemed stable enough, less the bluetooth, but a good deal of updates form AmiCanAndroid seem to need special tweaking.

I'm not entirely new here. I've been using android on my HD2 for a while and pretty much understand how to get myself up and running. So I'm trying to post for access to the developers forum, but with some legitimate questions here in the Q&A...
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
Nightly builds are just a progression of the development process from one Release Candidate to the next. It's a way of incorporating and then testing new fixes and features as they become available.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RegLinUsr:
So much information posted about animations but so much confusion as well.

I've read post after post of animation information but nothing that seems concise. My phone is an HTC Incredible so I do not need any information about any other phone because as has been found several times over; different phones have files in different places. No matter what tutorial/advice I follow, I am simply unable to get the sound to work for the boot animation. The splash works and the animation portion of the boot animation works but the sound is out-to-lunch.

That being said, I have the splash and animation files; bootanimation.zip and android_audio.mp3, both located in the /data/local directory. I have also tried to put them into the /system/media and /system/media/audio, respectively but that didn't seem to work. I have even gone so far as to change the folder part0 to android and modify the desc.txt accordingly; and yes, I saved the desc.txt [480 720 22p 1 0 android] in UNIX format in Notepad++ (Edit >>> EOL Conversion >>> UNIX Format, File >>> Save). I repacked the android folder and desc.txt file into a bootanimation.zip using 7zp; Archiver format [zip] and Compression level [Store]. I have even attempted the process as described at jonamerica.com/technology/updated-root-the-htc-droid-incredible; Updated: Root the HTC Droid Incredible and no-go, no sound.

Anyone have any suggestions? And, please, I am interested in HTC Incredible information only; preferably specific to my setup, if available. I've had enough confusion to last me a lifetime already.

:rolleyes:

Thanks!

Phone: Verizon HTC Incredible

ROM: CyanogenMod v6.1.0

Splash: Android peeing on Apple - HTC Incredible

Animation: Cyborg Boot Animation

I too am frustrated with this! hopefully someone can shed some light, I want my "DROOOID" boot sound!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pete_kowalski83:
A lot of ppl think bootani sounds are annoying which is why 99 percent of roms here dont have them but good luck. If u figure it out post your solution im sure theres a few ppl that wud like it
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] silverxbv2:
I thought CM did not support boot sound?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
I'm sure you're right and it is fine for a ROM maker to not include anything, but it "should" be simple to add one.. which leads to the next comment below..

they should.. maybe it isn't a stock feature in stock android, maybe Motorola and HTC had to code it in to make it work... I personally was excited to get the droid eye boot animation and sound when we got Froyo and I would still like both.. it's part of "making it your own" and isn't that what custom roms are about? :P I suppose in the big picture it isn't that big a deal.. the goal is to NOT see your phone booting but I can't help but enjoy the extra customization a boot animation with sound brings. :) I'll do some more Googling.. maybe you're right and CM just doesn't support audio at boot..

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] REYES702:
I didn't read any of the reply's but I do know when I put "android_audio.mp3" in the same folder as my boot animation with Skyraider, it played a sound.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pete_kowalski83:
I guess try putting the audio file into system/customize/resource thats where the bootani is located on sense based roms...our phones are meant to have sense so cant hurt
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
Right, I should have added that it all works as expected on Sense based roms.. just not on AOSP ones.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] lemaj5:
I'm using Nils Z Sense rom, and couldn't get it to work until I edited the build prop to enable usb notification sound line from 0 to 1, it has worked ever since. Hope this helps you!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
I'll try that later, thanks!

I also found this thread, not sure if it'll work as I'll also have to try that later (at work :P) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=787210
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
I found THIS and wanted to pass it on. I'm not sure if it works on all AOSP ROMs but I plan on trying later if I have time. I know 100% it works on CM7 and when I have time I'm going to try it on OMGB which I just switched too (awesome, light, fast vanilla ROM FYI!) I'll post results asap!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Comicazy:
Just wanted to say that this worked for me on OMFGB. I now have a stargate sound to go with my stargate boot animation. Thank a bunch for finding that.

*It's IncREDible*
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
awesome! glad it worked, I never had time to try it last night so I'm glad to hear it works with other AOSP roms, might be safe to say it'll work with all. just remember to Nandroid people! ;)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Comicazy:
Does anybody know if there is a way to decrease the volume of the bootsound?

*It's IncREDible*
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrWicket:
pull the android_audio.mp3 file off the phone and put it through a audio editing app and decrease the volume. then push it back to the phone. that's how I would do it.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootinAround:
Can RSD lite be installed on a Viewsonic G Tablet? Or any tablet for that matter? I know Android runs on apps not programs per say, but can it be done? I searched here, there, and yonder for some sort of answer but found nothing. So I came here. If this is an ignorant question, feel free to answer and delete the thread. Thanks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pnuts:
Rsd lite is a motorola program used to flash motorola devices. It is not something that you can install within android devices. Typically it runs on windows. It wouldn't be used with the gTab.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootinAround:
Well the reason I want it on the G tab is to use with my DX. I've got a Toshiba Satellite that's good, but I want to try out a tablet. But my MacBook is through my job and doesn't work as directly as Windows does with RSD. But I won't sell the Toshiba to get a G tab unless I could somehow use RSD on it. But I have little knowledge about tablets so I didn't know if it was possible. Thanks for the help.

Hello XDA.

I have a problem with my SGSi9000.

After a few weeks of using it with JPY it hangs yesterday on the Galaxy S logo.

So i decided to flash it again.

But this time it hangs on format_root_device: /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (see attach files.) After 30min no change.

It was on stock ROM

Unrooted and no Lagfix

Anybody tried taking handwritten notes (with a stylus) on this thing? I am wondering how that would work with your hand resting on the screen. I have a feeling it doesn't...
[Xoom General] Magnesus:
And if someone could tell if the precision is enough to select 4 pixels wide and 4 pixels high (or at least 8px wide, 8px high) objects with capacitive stylus it would be nice. :) I have an application with such small objects that I want to use through VNC and wonder if Xoom will be good enough for this.
[Xoom General] rljohnson:
Ordered a stylus today to try it.

I am also looking for a good app for this. iPad had some good apps but all I find now are for the Android phones.

If someone has suggestions on this I would like to know.
[Xoom General] marinierb:
MaplePaint looks ok for taking notes.

Also, Repligo looks pretty awesome for annotating PDF documents. Simply print any doc to PDF, put it on your XOOM, and off you go. You can do handwritten drawings, notes, you can highlight, etc. and save your annotations back to your PDF. That one I definitely like!

But again, I believe that the hand resting on the screen will throw the whole things off and the stylus won't work.
[Xoom General] ClydeB1:
I haven't tried it yet, but WritePad also looks promising. It's not free though and also not sure on the hand resting on the screen issue.
[Xoom General] Adapt0r:
Try ezPDF!
[Xoom General] RaptorMD:
I'm hoping one the HTC Flyer comes out their scribe app will get pulled out and put to real use on the XOOM.
[Xoom General] gbmitchell:
Anything is possible but I would not hold my breath. Scribe is more than software. The stylus is made specifically for the digitizer and the software may not work with different hardware.
[Xoom General] Quantrill00:
I'm still waiting for a killer notetaking app that allows stylus use. I have found Handrite to be serviceable. It doesn't let you rest your palm, but that hasn't been too much of an issue for me so far.

I've written the makers of Penultimate for the ipad and they responded that as of early March, they have no plans for an Android port :/

[XPERIA X10 General] :
Guys, hello again.

As you know, my X10 was stolen, but Im now moving on and I realize I gotta get a new smartphone, but I can't do it for now, maybe until november :(

However, with latest news about SE about Android updates and unlocking the bootloader, I definitely decided to get a new Xperia (So no, Im not a SE hater), and Im not interested in Arc but I really like Neo, so if everything goes well I'll get it in the future.

I see most of you guys who are going to update your phones are getting Arc, but I would like to know how many of you will get Neo.

Also, I have two cuestions about it:

I can't find the correct data how much RAM Neo has, some people say it has the same as Arc. Is this true?

And the front camera, what are its real specs?

Edit: Any estimated price? In euros or dollars.

Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X10 General] -- X10B --:
here's the specs of neo and compared to arc..

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3734&idPhone2=3619

for me x10 is my last phone (not a hater of s.e)

i do love the design but i need more ram and power..

1 core no way dude...

peace s.e fans haha
[XPERIA X10 General] :
I already checked gsmarena before, if you look closer, the info doesn't show Neo's real RAM.

And yes, I also thought a double-cored phone could be awesome, but I've analyzed the situation deeper: remember, that's still experimental (just like the case with the first double-cored computers) and we don't know yet how much reliable is a phone like that. Motorola Atrix sounds very good, but I'd rather to ensure the performance of the phone I'll use everyday. I see double-core phones standarized approximately until Q4 or 2012 (my opinion).

Plus, we should see how good the battery's performance is with a double core processor.
[XPERIA X10 General] Gringoandroid:

how to hard reset samsung galaxy i5500

if this helps anyone.

first use odin to update it to 2.2

then use one samsung i9000 one-click root

make sure when you connect the usb to phone select kies option, this will turn on usb debugging if you cant get past the security code or email.

select one click root 2.2

wait....

then you will be in recovery boot screen

select wipe\factory reset

then select reboot now phone

phone will restart and go into recovery again, simply select reboot a second time and you will be good.

mine was in spanish , i speak english i think you guys can figure the reset out,

i hope this helps you all for security locks and other things....

if someone can rewrite this with the correct files for those who dont know where to get odin and .tar and .ops files . that would be nice. i figure everyone knows where to get the one click root files

Hi Pals,

I am extremely confused because of the ROM version mismatch with the model.

I have a HTC Touch P3450 with the following conf-

ROM Version : 3.07.720.03 WWE

ROM Date : 10/25/08

Radio Version : 03.34.90

Protocol : 4.1.13.71

CPU : OMAP850

Model No. : ELF0100

Now I have got an issue where this phone stucks after a Hard reset and doesn't start the setup. Doing Hard reset for multiple times makes this happen once. i wanted to flash it with the original official ROM but i got shocked to see that the ROM ver of my phone only comes for ELFIN model. ELF doesn;t have any 3.x.x. ROM ver. Even on the HTC website, its saying that my device is not supported for the above ROM version. Hows that possible?

I have never upgraded my phone and the above mentioned ROM ver has come with the phone itself. But I can't find any doc supporting this fact.

What shall I do? Plz suggest.
