[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aostl:
HTC only has to post there code for kernals not sense. Same with miui. Cyanogen is open source by choice, a community rom
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Kernel=GPL.

Rom= mix of proprietary and Apache licensed source.

Apache does NOT require you to release your source.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
Since android is based on linux which is open source too (gpl?), I really don't understand why htc, miui or anybody else do not have to release their rom source code.

I'm not a dev, work in the financial industry so have no reason to know these things but it just does not make sense. It just seems weird to say kernel code has to be released but not rom code. Why the distinction?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
I already explained it in a previous post. I don't see a need to repeat it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
So out of curiosity, I did some research on gpl and asl. It seems that the apache license is entirely compatible with gpl v3 (not v2) so I guess it would be fair to expect rom developers to switch to gpl v3 licensing so as to ensure that all rom devs benefit from their mods too. I assume this will happen at xda first.

Sent from my thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcase:
Most rom devs dont build from source, they just mod/patch. They have no right to change any license.

Kernel is gpl2, system is apache.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
"The Apache Software Foundation and the Free Software Foundation (FSF) agree that the Apache License 2.0 is a free software license, compatible with version 3 of the GNU General Public License (GPL). Compatibility in this case means that since the GPL version 3 is considered a superset of the Apache License 2.0, a project combining GPL version 3 and Apache License 2.0 code will need to be licensed under the GPL version 3."

So if any rom includes any work which is licensed under GPL v3, the rom becomes subject to GPL v3. Thats interesting... Anybody manage to read the htc open source licenses on the about phone bit? I am curious but am unable to read it - cant find a copy of it online but it might be interesting to read.

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks for your review! I'll probably give it a try myself soon.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ToastPwnz:
Might take a shot at it tonight or tomorrow night. 55 hours was my record uncalibrated (with about 45% left, and an extended battery of course), I wonder if I can beat it after I calibrate it.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Definitely curious to hear your results, too.

I did use this a few days ago. I'm at 50% after 16 hours and 46 minutes, although with only a little use. Standard battery in my case. :)
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] hellfrozeover:
Sounds good. I'm going to check this out too. I am no programmer by any means but I love figuring out how this stuff works. Its like going to college on my computer only you don't find any piles of conformism garbage in here. I love it. I'm gonna try the recalibration. I use my phone pretty heavily;downloading music, listening to music, using pandora, clocking my speed with GPS on the mountain, playing games, etc., so I'll let you all know how it goes for me.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] csleverette:
Had excellent results the first time I tried it. 2 days to drain it down through pretty use. Then updated rom and tried again but so far not nearly as good as the first time.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] hellfrozeover:
17 hours on battery and it's at 40% still. I listened to Pandora for hours last night with the bass boost on so I think that's damn good. Usually should've had to charge by now.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] labnjab:
This has helped me out a lot too. 9 hrs and 68% granted I was at work today and didnt use it a whole lot its sure dying a lot slower in my pocket. :) Gonna use it more now / tonight and see how long it will last.
[Touch HD General] mickeystar:
i've currently got frx05 but is frx06 the latest and best one for htc touch hd

if so how would i update from frx05 and frx06 do i just replace system.ext2 file or do i have to go through the whole process again?
[Touch HD General] hrk7474:
You can replace the system.ext2 but if it doesn't boot or goes into boot loop you need to delete data.img which would mean going through the whole process again.
[Touch HD General] mickeystar:
whats the difference between the two?
[Touch HD General] hrk7474:
The two what? :D

FRX05 <-> FRX06: newer build

no boot <-> boot loop: no flying androids <-> flying androids forever

old data.img <-> delete data.img: keep all apps and settings <-> loose all apps and settings

So yeah, you can

- just replace the system.ext2 with the new one, or

- if it won't boot delete data.img and try again, or

- just download the new full bundle and start from scratch on a fresh sd-card.

BTW this also works for GBX0A, but then i would swap the conf file as well (in the conf folder)
[Touch HD General] mickeystar:
so im guessing frx06 is currently the best android, btw what is bootloop?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradspace:
I have the G2/Vision and the MT4G/Glacier. I recently d/l a new radio for my G2 that extended battery life to epic proportions. Has there been any development on any new radios for the MT4G? I have looked through all 6 pages of threads in the dev section and could not find anything. Am I missing it, or is there just nothing current for this device?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
No one has ventured into radio development, at least not yet.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
The current radio is in my sig. It came with the most recent OTA that upgraded Android to 2.2.1
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csdalporto:
Are there any links to stock radios? Cm7 radio sucks for download speeds
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Custom ROMs do not contain radio images. If download speeds are slow on CM7, it's because of the ROM, not your phone's radio.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
AOSP ROMs are known for slower download speeds. If you don't like it, don't use it simple as that. :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killbynature:
Edit the build prop it should fix your slowness on CM7.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camalus:
True.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Personally i'd rather deal with slightly slower download speeds, then deal with all of the BS that comes with bloated ROM. Sense is a Sumo Wrestler in a room full of Super Models.... think about it, you'll get it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I would describe Sense a little differently. Sense is the sexy, voluptuous woman that is high maintenance, whereas vanilla Android is a plain and boring girl that you quickly grow tired of.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elry567:
Agree as fast as the aosp roms are I cant stay away from sense too long much as I may try
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Then get the gingersense Rom haha perfect match ;)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
to each his own i guess. My boring girl can wear what ever i throw on her, and right now is is pretty damn sexy. I guess if you like shopping @ Lane Bryant for yours then feel free to. :p

First i would like to apologize if my question is posted in a wrong place.. I tried to post it in development section but was not allowed coz im new user

anyway,

I have vio win 7 64 bit. I used to be able to connect my phone and do my updates. I beleive since the last Keis update and my laptop won't ecognize my phone. I tried reinstalled the driver but it give me the follow failed message

[Windows Phone 7 General] 937dytboi:
Its very frustrating going through and deleting text messages one at a time. Will there and is there any hack to enable this feature. Will Microsoft add this feature as we have this feature for the email but not for text messaging.

This will be very useful for me when I get tons of text messages and want to delete them as I do my emails
[Windows Phone 7 General] jodywallin:
Agree! I know I would use this much more than copy & paste. We could sure use this feature.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TexUs:
It still blows the mind, to me... How Microsoft 100% failed to look at what the iPhone did and learn from it.

Simple stuff like this, sockets, cut/copy/paste... Come on... Why did they think people want it on iOS and Android but never on WP7???? It just blows the mind.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tfouto:
time... time... its a new OS, they need time to build it. They didn't have time to do it. Simple as time. Not because MS tought it was good to leave sockets and cut/paste out of the phone. Just a matter of time...
[Windows Phone 7 General] 937dytboi:
How hard is it for them to add these features though. I just don't understand how they put it on the email and not the text. It shouldn't be that hard to add this
[Windows Phone 7 General] TexUs:
So they released it knowing full well... They were leaving out basic features.

At some level, that means they decided it was "good" to release it without them.

Now, I understand you don't throw all your features into an initial release because hey... the product might flop. But copy/paste? Come on.

Probably because someone else wrote the Messaging App...

Maybe try downloading and flashing the new CoreDroid that came out a few days ago. I have never had sound problems using that rom, and it comes with dsp manager installed by default. It is a very nice rom, I'd reccommend another but this is the only one I have experience with.

Hi

i have recently purchased an i9000 from the UK it came loaded with Darky's Rom 7.0.

I would like to use it in canada with a stock firmware. How can i restore it to stock firmware so i can also update the phone via kies to the latest stock firmware ?

which firmware should i use and what is exactly procedure ? can i use I9000XXJVK 2.3.3 can i root it ?

Currently kies is telling it cannot update the firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Kies can only update legitimate firmware .

Gingerbread 2.3 is not yet released .

The phones product code is tied to the firmware update so O2UK phone gets O2 UK update not Canada update .

As its for non Europe i would be installing a stock rom for that area from samsungfirmwares .com as you require a modem to work in Canada .

North American threads on the forum may help if any .

Alternative would be to use Kies Registry Spoofing and spoof a clean phone to a Canada provider firmware .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 General] indianx:
Thanks for the reply

So there is no way i can restore the phone to legitimate firmware? I dont mind to restore it to legitimate uk firmware. The samfirmware website list the latest 2.3.3 already.

If i cannot restore it to a legitimate firmware how can i get back to a stock firmware from darky 7.0?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Legitimate firmware that came with the phone can be restored if you saved it .

Flash stock from samsungfirmware through Odin pit 512 and repartition checked .

2.3.3 has not yet been released by Samsung so do not install .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 General] indianx:
No i didnt saved it. I got the i9000 with darkys 7.0 version. Will go to stock firmware no other option. Darkys custom rom drains to much battery tried all the 10000 suggestions.

Thanks m8 for ur help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] indianx:
Btw why should i not install the 2.3.3 version. I had it already installed. Any trouble ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ImraanK:
Odin flash a stock rom with appropriate modem.. root with a kernal of your choice.. im pretty sure you can change the product code.. search for it on xda..

Before flashing.. make sure all lagfixes are disabled if any..

For your viewing pleasure, I just received the back of my gtablet back from the Hydrographer. Not bad for $20 and it adds some protection against scratches.

[G Tablet Accessories] nunjabusiness:
Most major metro areas have someone at least dabbling in hydrographics, aka immersion printing, water transfer, film dipping, etc. You can buy the equipment to do it yourself for about $5K

They use a printed sheet of PVA film (poly vinyl alcohol) and float it in water. Then they spray a chemical on the sheet that makes it dissolve but remain intact, floating there. Then they dip your piece (can be anything really) and it wraps around it. Very cool to see. I have seen them do guitars and gun stocks and stuff.

Google it or check your yellow pages. BTW, $20 is a decent price.

Is your phone branded or unbranded? Is it dev unlocked? You might be able to uninstall the Network Profile app and then use the Samsung Tools homebrew app to enable ADC (requires a dev unlocked phone). Then it should auto detect your settings after a reboot. Haven't tested this myself - if you try it, please confirm whether it worked.
