I've now installed Launcher Pro (free version) and it now turns to landscape..

However I need to weigh up if thats better than being able to have a folder on the bottom bar (dock?)

How would I revert back to 'Sony Ericsson Home' if I tick 'use by default' when pressing the home button? (ie Launcher pro set as default)

cheers
[HTC Desire S] Tekguru:
Guys I thought you might be interested in the review I've just published:

One of the most popular Android smartphones of the last year was the HTC Desire, which maintained the number one spot in a fair number of tech-web site ranking systems. HTC have now built on that success by bringing to the market an updated replacement machine - the Desire S. The 'S' model maintains the sleek svelte 'medium' form factor but brings new capabilities and technology to the machine which brings it fully up to date....

......The Desire S continues to build HTCs reputation for producing well designed and constructed smartphones, not only is it a positive pleasure to use but its small precisely constructed body houses a smooth system which should meet the needs of most users, from e-mail handling, connectivity through to media, social network sharing as well as less hectic activities such as relaxing and taking time out to read a book or watch a movie. The 'S' is a worthy successor to the original Desire and again sets the benchmark for the mid-range form factor Smartphone. If you are a fan of the original Desire you'll love the Desire S.

@tekguru

thanks a lot for the rev. very detailed

i finally got the confirmation that it has a new version of sense that can be skinned

does yours have the problem with the sensible wifi antenna?

try applying pressure on the upper rubber and see if the signal drops

and also: does the sense theme change the interface color in the menu? camera? browser? media gallery?

please make a video about it

i would really appreciate it

if all goes ok i think im buying this phone when it gets a real price

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DIESTROnG:
Went from Myn's Warm Z to CM7 to Myn's 2.2 RLS5. I can't seem to get the latest radio version to show.

After flashing 2.2 RLS5 and followed the steps below:

Downloads:

Download Warm TwoPointTwo RLS 5 (Mirror 1) (Mirror 2) - [MD5sum: ba1cc1aed1d8161e3429909470bd7eb4]

As this ROM now uses the latest official HTC Kernel (#15) you MUST update your Radio/Wimax. I recommend Calkulin's combo update which is available here or via direct download here.

Installation Instructions:

Download Rom and Radio/Wimax updates and place in the root of SDCard.

Reboot into Recovery.

Perform Nandroid backup

Minimally wipe dalvik and cache. For optimal experience, perform full wipe (data/dalvik/cache).

Flash the rom first.

Then the radio/wimax update. While the radios are flashing you'll see a little green arrow phone icon for a bit afterwords, Wait on this. You will then automatically be taken back to recovery.

Once back in recovery, reboot.

Enjoy

But after following those steps exactly, I check my baseband version and it is still on 2.15.00.09.01 instead of 2.15.00.11.19

Can anyone tell me where I may have gone wrong? Or any other suggestions?

Are you using clockwork mod recovery or amon ra? I was having a similar issue using clockwork and I tried it again using amon ra and it worked...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DIESTROnG:
Using clockwork... never used Amon Ra before, not familiar with it at all. I'll look into and see what happens. Thanks for the reply, really appreciate it.

In the meantime, please reply with any other experiences or suggestions.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I also suggest using Amon RA recovery. Make the switch, and then try flashing the radio update again.

I loved clockwork but amon was easier.

Swyped from my sexy EVO.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bAyb0y84:
i third that. i used clockwork just because it came with my root method (unrevoked) but after having edify issues i flashed to amon ra and havent looked back since. for some reason clockwork complicates something as easy as flashing a simple zip file where as amon ra just makes flashing a simple zip file easy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KB112:
Amon Ra is so much better IMO. I got nothin against CWM, but Amon Ra has been flawless for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gacn87:
Just for the sake of information. I flashed using that exact same method, using CWM, and everything went off w/o a hitch. However, after all these Amon Ra lovers, I kinda do want to check that out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DIESTROnG:
thanks for all of the suggestions everyone.

I ended up taking your advice and using Amon RA and it worked! Thanks again.

It is worth noting that when flashing the radios with CWM, I did not see the little green phone icon as described in the instructions. Which I am assuming means that I never REALLY flashed the radios. Although it did seem to flash it, and returned to the main menu of the recovery.

Flash the rom first.

Then the radio/wimax update. While the radios are flashing you'll see a little green arrow phone icon for a bit afterwords, Wait on this. You will then automatically be taken back to recovery.

Once back in recovery, reboot.

Only difference with Amon RA's was that after flashing the radio zip from the sd card, it instructed me to reboot in order to continue the installation of the radio zip.

Anyway, it worked, and thanks to everyone who replied.

[Xoom General] 1900mcm:
I caused and fixed an instability problem on my xoom.

I love the ability to have the 'full' internet and would not remove the Flash 10 install. But once i added a site which uses flash (heavily) to my bookmarks, the tablet kinda went down hill.

For me, either removing the bookmark widget from the home screen, or the bookmark to the page/site, gave me back my stable and great tab.

(did test this - both widget removal and bookmark removal combinations - and for me - this appeared to be a cause of stability)

I'm thinking the widget does such a good job of rendering the sites as thumbnails for this little scrolling ball of fun, that its a pig.

YMMV

I was using the PureGingerbread gpc_hd2_gingerbread rom for a while. It has a great app for FMradio and Camera which looks like regular one, but has an autofocus.

Now I use NexusOne Rom and I want to add those to my system ... but how ?

I've tried to unpack PureGinger rom and place apps in my /system/app, but no results. Apps doesn't work, not even appear in installed applications.

Is there any way to help me install this apps ?

P.S. I attached those apps, which I wanna add to my system.

I was wondering if anyone has messed around with metamorph on their atrix?

I tried it once. The first zip (a status bar icon) I ran worked, the second (black notification bar) caused a softbrick.

Is there any mod or hack to have a timer on the camera ?
[HD7 General] Jim Coleman:
Why on Earth would you want a camera timer? It's not like you can put the phone on a tripod or even just stand it on a wall or anything....it would be completely pointless.
[HD7 General] Sean D.:
I wouldn't mind having this also.
[HD7 General] Linkinworm:
anything can be used as a tripod with enough will power
[HD7 General] megagprime:
I second that
[HD7 General] Jim Coleman:
OK name one thing that you are likely to have with you that you can prop the phone up with at the right distance and angle that lets you line up the shot and will hold the phone steady enough.

Because if there is such a thing, I'll add my +1.

Even though I think this is a stoopid suggestion, I have no doubt that once Mango hits and the camera API is opened up, some numpty will create an app to do a timer function. :rolleyes: And other numpties will pay for it. :eek:
[HD7 General] Sean D.:
Or it can be added by HTC like it was on thier old devices (Kaiser/Tilt, at least).

So you carry that thing around with you all the time? But not a proper camera?

Having trouble believing this! LOL Do you keep it in your handbag? I mean, really? a 1 foot tall tripod? Come on! Do you take many pictures of people's ankles? ;)
[HD7 General] agtokc:
I would like it because the button is recessed with the case I have and often the extra effort required to press the button causes blurry pictures. Would actually rather touch the screen to snap the pic... Is there an app for that? Lol
[HD7 General] dauction:
agree the recessed button is terrible..it is actually the worst I have ever used on any Phone with a camera..

Along with a shutter timer I hope developers also include on screen shutter "button" like on the HD2 (since there is no way to "fix" the recessed button)

Seriously? Why wouldn't you want a camera timer????????? Who needs a tripod anyway?? Have you no imagination? Just sit the phone up against something hit the timer button and there u go......I do this all the time with my epic and the pictures come out fine. There might be some places you cant do this but for the most part you can. You got to remember though these camera phones arent used for professional quality. Just a in case camera.

[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Put the Samsung stock recovery in the tools section of the post...

Flash this with ClockworkMod, to uninstall ClockworkMod, in case the phone needs to be turned in with factory recovery.

If you need to turn in the phone, then flash the ReRFS ROM, and make sure the phone boots. Then go back to ClockworkMod with the 3 finger boot, and flash the Samsung stock recovery, to uninstall ClockworkMod.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
Thank u thank u thank u. This made my day as i just started today updating my wife's epic from dk28. I used the ec05 and the kernel and her phone finally is nice to use. No matter how clean of an install it always had some issue. I loathed it, but now she and I am very happy w a 100% functioning phone w 0 problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonjohn1:
How about a stock ec05 kernal for folks that have a custom kernel, but not a custom rom. That way I don't have to lose all my settings with a complete wipe and I will still be able to take my phone into Sprint.

Thanks for a great job.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
You should be able to perform a backup with ClockworkMod before performing this flash. Reboot into android, and check to see that the backup is there in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup.

After the ReRFS ROM is performed, reboot, and then shut down. 3 finger boot into ClockworkMod 2.5.1.0. Choose mounts and storage > advanced > {select backup} > restore data.

Alternatively, you can use MyBackup Root, available free from the market, and use that. My rooted kernel is also posted in this thread, that you can flash for that purpose.

I will also post the stock kernel by itself for you, and that will be part of my ClockworkMod tools release, with all of the flashes I've made and collected.

Hope this helps!

[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Just so you know, most custom kernels currently published (if not all) still make changes to the system files that would prevent OTA updates, and leave tell tale signs of rooting in the system.

In the event that you really needed to turn in the phone, I would do the following:

* Perform a backup with both ClockworkMod and MyBackup Root (just in case)

* Flash ReRFS ROM

* Boot into cwm > backup and restore > advanced restore > {choose backup} > restore data (optional, may work well, may cause force closes)

* From cwm, flash the Samsung stock recovery, in Tools section of this post, to uninstall cwm, and eliminate all signs of tampering

Just wanted to make that clear... Even the cleanest of custom kernels still leave traces when flashing the stock kernel. Even though my Clean Kernel should allow OTA updates to occur once the stock kernel is flashed again, if I really needed to turn in the phone for some reason, I would do the steps I just laid out.

Hope that clarifies some things.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonjohn1:
