Well, they aren't exactly crying, they are beginnig to use tools that had been used against them for a decade.

Also, I'm not sure that creating a YouTube competitor is such a bonanza - Google is losing a lot of money on this site.
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
Keep this on topic please.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
See that's the thing, they don't have a 100% fully functional app. If they do, where is it? Right now they are just playing the blame game. Is that hard to comprehend?

I can say Google is blocking me too, I have a fully functional app ready for release.

Do you think going to court is going to solve anything soon? Not at all, they could stretch this out for years.

Another thing, it wouldn't cost millions to purchase another developer or simply form a new corporation to be purchased. I have a degree in business and this is the first thing we studied, **** is cheap and common.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
The app isn't released because it cannot legally access YouTube APIs, that's what they are saying.
[Windows Phone 7 General] xsteven77x:
YouTube or xda?
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I can say the same thing.

However this is a pointless argument.

You're correct that Google is losing a ton of money on YouTube.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Try to make a commercial application using Google APIs with a high volume of transactions without reaching an agreement with Google first.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
No but creating a YouTube experience on par with Android on wp7 is a bonanza because YouTube is an important consumer service and not having a good YouTube experience can negatively affect a platform. YouTube is more important than Adobe flash.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superatmos:
Hi,

I have seen a lot of posts and threads, but was unable to find the procedure to build the source code for the device.

I am a junior android developer and I would like to learn from the experts here.

I have got the latest gingerbread source code from git repo and I would like to make my own changes to the code, add new icons, build it and then flash onto my Nexus S.

Please let me know the detailed procedure.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
The procedure is documented on the google homepage.

You can start here:

source.android.com/source/download.html
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superatmos:
Thanks for the reply.

I tried all this and had built the code successfully too. But when am flashing with -w flashall option, its saying radio must be below I9020XXKB3 version.

I tried to flash individually boot.img and system.img, but lost root :( and also google apps are not present ( like maps, navigation.. ).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
Can't really help you here. AFAIK KB3 is the latest radio available.

I don't know, why the latest android version shouldn't support it.

boot.img is the kernel and initramfs.

system.img is the root partition.

The radio is another partition again, AFAIK (again).

Google Apps are not present, because they are not part of the Android open source project, but are closed source.

They are licensed by Google to device manufacturers under some conditions.

One condition is to conform to the android compatibility document (hxxp://source.android.com/compatibility/index.html).

You can find the google apps around the internet somewhere though. I remember seeing them for download on the cyanogenmod homepage.

EDIT: Root is gone because it is a modification of the system (in system.img) in the first place. Unless you integrate it into the build process it won't be there.

Hey guys,

Just to let you know there is an application out there now to take care of force recalibration of the screen.

When I first got my nook I know it didn't register touch properly, so I ran some commands and it started working fine.

Decided I should make my first app something that helps people, so here you go. Checkout "nook screen recalibrate". It's a simple minimalistic application the re calibrates then reboots

Updated Version 2.0

* Better GUI

* Button to start process

* Lowered MinSDK to support froyo (untested)
[Nook Color General] KitF:
Here's the market link.

Helpful since you don't have enough posts to post links yet. But thanks for this app!
[Nook Color General] A. Nonymous:
Ironically when I go to the link and try to push it to my NC, it says it's not compatible. :X
[Nook Color General] skeeterpro:
Fine print mentions that is only works with GB (android 2.3 and above).

If your software doesn't require 2.3 functionality, can you lower the required API to '7', which is the stock Android API level (2.2/Froyo)?

Ok maybe this is in my head, but if I run this every couple nightlies, touch feels slightly better and responsive.

Maybe it's the nightly, maybe the way it interacts, maybe the screen de sensitises over time, maybe it's all in my head

If anyone cares to do some testing, that would be great

This may sound crazy but after running this I think that the screen is actually leases responsive and now shows the "ghost" touches so badly that the on screen keyboard isn't usable. Is there something to do to fix this?
[Nook Color General] assid2:
Try cleaning your screen prior to running the application, make sure you don't touch the screen prior to restarting
[Nook Color General] ansleyj44:
same thing on my end. I ended up reflashing the latest cm7 nightly and its back to the way it was

That's extremely strange. First time I've heard issues like this crop up. Do you have a screen guard or something

[Windows Phone 7 General] JORD4N:
I would like to know what contract to get, one with satnav (gps) or one without, but orange says it does not support sat nav, as orange maps is not available.

Can someone please check and tell me if there is a app called orange maps on the store, i do not have the phone yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Freypal:
Orange maps came pre-loaded on my Omnia 7.

It is also for download in the marketplace. Requires a subscription add-on on your contract though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pdauser92:
I have an unbranded Omnia 7 and have Orange Maps running on it. I couldn't find it when I searched on the marketplace via my PC but was able to find it when I did a search via my phone which had an Orange SIM in it at the time.

The basic Orange Maps subscription is £5 per month. I was told that when running it uses its own data allowance and so your usual data allowance remains untouched. When I tried a test run with it this seemed to be the case as there was no change to my data usage when I checked my account afterward.

However this is something that you would have to confirm with them to be sure.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sportbilly2009:
Hi,

I have an unusual issue - during off peak times, I have activesync set so that I should only get my emails if I manually sync. However, a couple of time a night, my phone seems to sync and alerts me that I have new emails.

Anyone know what's up?

This is pretty annoying, as sometimes the phone starts bleeping in the middle of the night.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Mega Man:
Just thought I would contribute my two cents. Like many others, I was disappointed (but expected as much) with the short battery life. I work 12 hour shifts on the weekends and it was a chore to keep charging the phone.

So I called to Verizon, complained and they tried to get me to go in the store and exchange the entire phone (because I wad in the 14 day period). I explained that I know that the battery is the issue, not the phone and explained to him a few things to prove I was tech savvy (plus, I didn't want to spend another two hours configuring another phone).

He said that the only replacement part he could send was the extended battery (which is what I wanted anyway). He sent it overnight free of charge (as it should be in the Thunderbolt's case).

I can honestly attest, after a week of use, that even with constant downloading/streaming, the battery does last my entire 12 hour shift without charging.

The only downside is the fact I can't find a case for my phone with an extended battery. (I'm sad that my Seido Innocase will probably be eBayed). HTC should at least had made a make shift case, anything that could serve as a barrier between my work hands or any table surface.

But oh well, I mainly gave up my N1 so that I could be grandfathered into Verizon's unlimited 4G network when tiers come out.

Hope this info helps.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ddgarcia05:
I too have had the extended battery for about a week now and I am very happy with it. I work 10 hour days and I'm always near a car charger but I don't want to constantly have my phone charging. Like you said the only downside side is the lack of cases. I had to cut my phone case to make it usable.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] psufan5:
Why not just buy 2 batteries? That thing is god awful looking... 2 batteries and a multi-charger unit = win.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] r0guenj:
This is for another thread, but the gist of it is once vz comes out with new tiered data plans (meaning 1/3/5/10 gb etc), the existing plan you are on will stay at the unlimited level.

ie: keeping your existing plan when it is no longer available is called being grandfathered.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] peddigree:
I have went with the extended battery and honestly its really good and i prefer the hump on the back as its a extra grip. I agree on the cases though it would really make my day if they had something for it but no complaints really
[Thunderbolt Accessories] hogowner:
In my opinion, I would rather get the extended battery instead of having an extra one. I for one, don't like opening and shutting the back plate of the phone so often. That is how it easily breaks......especially the tabs that hold the back plate.....IMHO...better off going with the extended battery! :)
[Thunderbolt Accessories] dsvoda:
This is a bad ass phone, i think the extended battery makes it look even more bad ass. Just my opinion.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] kierandill:
I got this:

http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...ryDetails&archetypeId=12520&accessoryId=47427

and with the extended battery, the front half fits fine:
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Goronok:
I think the extra battery life that the extended battery provides outweighs the added weight/bulk. The battery definitely does add a lot of weight to the device though =/
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Boss428man:
Make a case. 20min plus 5.99 case on amazon.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] gcantrell:
Agree 1000%! The extra grip is key for me, because i generally drop my phones not super often but it does happen. I dig the extra bulk. Its really not that bad. Plus it works great. Gets me through all day. In fact, i purposely try to kill it at night because i wanna give it a good full charge while i sleep. So ill pull up angry birds and play for a while. Takes me a while to kill this thing, works great!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] gcantrell:
This!!!!!!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] distortedloop:
The phone's already so big and heavy (compared to anything I've been carrying the last couple of years), what's an extra 1/4" inch and 2 ounces...? :D

I was fairly critical of the extended battery until I bought one on Monday to see for myself the benefits vs costs (price in weight and bulk) of it. It's definitely big, ugly, and doesn't help me grip the phone any better (makes it worse for me), but after getting 31 hours (with heavy use for me) off my first charge, I decided I could put up with it. Today I'm down to 82% after 7 hours of moderate use, so looking to get about the same drain as original test.

The Thunderbolt will be my pickup truck; big, ugly, utilitarian, but gets the job done in all conditions...my Nexus S will remain the sports car; sleek, sexy, light-weight, gorgeous to look at. Everyone should have one of each! LOL
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ddgarcia05:
Agreed. Here's mine.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] mikec86:
I charged my extended battery to full and took it out and placed my fully charged standard battery in and I believe it increased the battery time on it. It's lasting twice as long.... Might be a calibration issue aka software problem. Any one test the battery out of the phone after the phone says the battery is low?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] sm0k3y-TB:
What are you guys paying for these extended batteries?

[Thunderbolt Accessories] BeeDubs:

[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Don't bother. If your recovery is set to check signatures, your rom will fail unless it is signed by the device manufacturer.
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
It would sort of defeat the whole purpose of signatures if you could just change something and re-sign it with the original signature.

Dont ask me to ever explain the math behind the crypto, but I can link a wikipedia page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signature#Integrity
[Android Software Development] MongooseHelix:
There are a few ways to resign your changes to a custom ROM but you may not need to resign if your custom recovery doesn't check or if you use something like 7zip to open the zip but not actually extract it while making your changes. If you do need/want to resign, there are a few possibilities. A couple android apps can sign files on your phone itself: Signapktic or ZipSigner. There are also tools for your computer floating around xda to sign zip and apk files. I have a droplet called Android-sign(mac-only) to use every now and then. Also, there's always the testsign.jar method from the command line.

java -classpath /PATH/TO/testsign.jar testsign update.zip update-signed.zip

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suchevent:
oh geez, where to start...there's tons of info on prolonging your battery life. you're just gonna have to use the search button for that.

it's no secret that the biggest culprit, when it comes to battery drain, is the screen. personally, i've seen improvements on battery life when i turn the brightness setting down.

i've seen my battery last anywhere between 8 hours (very heavy use i.e. screen on pretty much all day) to 30 hours (very light use, few phone calls, few sms, light online surfing, i.e. screen hardly on). rather than what rom or radio you are using, i think how you use the phone has a bigger impact on battery drain.

also, if you want to prolong the life of your li-ion battery, avoid fully discharging it. li-ion batteries perform better (and longer in the long run) when you avoid full discharges.
