After numerous builds+kernels, loads of frustration (and the inevitable revert to wm for a while) I think I like this setup. Simplicity at its best, Scoot CyanogenMod (RLS5.5) and latest 2.6.32 from atools as per 1st post. Just re-purposed the camera button as 'home'. Even my headset works, albeit intermittently.

Which settings for ATools for pola200?

Hi,

i tried to install this rom on my german pola200. But on the Linux Bootscreen the text is scrolling down and sayes that it installs the rom. But than it scrolls down error messages.

I tried this for houres but it shows no final error or something. The Text is scrolling on and on.

So i think that i used the wrong settings in atool. I used this tutorial to set up atool: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/androidhtc/wiki/HowToInstallWithAtoolsNand

What settings should been used?:

- What version to select?: Donut, Eclair or Froyo?

- Best settings for sd-card-partition? I used first partition 3 gb fat32, second partition 1 gb ext2.

- where should i install system and data? Both on second sd-partition? Or should there be a third partition? (the first time i tried to install the system on intern memory but install runs out of space)

Can you please explain the right settings in atool?
[Touch Cruise Android Development] arzakem:
best version is froyo.

to choose sd-card partition, you must have your sdcard PREPARED beforehand. Atool does not partition your sdcard for you. As of what to use to partition your sdcard you can search it at google. (im sorry im a little bit short on time now). choose NAND on both system and DATA.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] l1q1d:
atools has sd partioner inside so you can repart sd card (boot script editor Y), but the sdcard must have only one partition on it (fat32).
[Touch Cruise Android Development] arzakem:
i stand corrected :) thanks l1qu1d. :)

I tried this version to install but when android starts appears only an upper panel with battery icon, clock and nothing else, none of buttons work, nothing happens on screen.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbreezy:
I'm cleaning up my N1 and going from Enoms to Cyans and decided to start fresh. So I formatted (had a couple partitions for A2SD) but now I'm stuck. I don't know if I accidentally partitioned something I wasn't supposed to, or what.

Here's my current situation...

- Right now I've Clockwork's recovery and cannot boot android

- I cannot mount SD card to throw anything on it

Is there a way to mount it, remove all partitions so there's just the one (I dont want A2SD anymore) and throw Cyan's update.zip on there?

I'll gladly answer any questions, but right now I don't know what I don't know so if you've any suggestions on directions I should be going that'd be great too. It'd give me a starting point to find the answer at least.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Which recovery are you using? Clockwork 3.x by any chance?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbreezy:
Not sure. I don't have it with me right now. I'll find out later today.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrmec:
Take the sdcard out of the phone, find usb adapter to use it directly on your computer and reset the partitions to original with some partitioning program and try it in your phone again after that.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbreezy:
I'm running clockwork 2.5.1.0.

I don't have a card reader. I suppose I could get one but is there a way to do it without one? I usually use my phone as a reader but I've even put the card in my thunderbolt but no dice.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbreezy:
Figured it out... I put cyan on the sd of my thunderbolt and put it into my N1 and installed cyan 7 on my N1. From there I was able to use rom manager to re-partition the card. Appears to be working fine now.

I am running Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.0.3 with Twilight Zone kernel. I was browsing Facebook when my phone froze and i had to pull the battery to reset it. After rebooting, every time i tried to open the default messaging app it kept FC'ing along with ChompSMS. I uninstalled chomp to try to fix it but nothing. I am wondering what the next step is. Do i Factory reset the phone? I am trying to avoid this cause I do not want to reroot, reconvert to ext4 etc...Thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteway.619:

Hi.

Is it possible to use a USB On The Go cable to connect external devices to the Defy?

[Defy General] loi91:
Probably not!

I dont think so. This is only a USB-port to host the DEFY as a device on your PC...
[Defy General] viper.:
So that means Defy doesnt have USB OTG ? Where can we get that information?
[Defy General] drmouse81:
I'd like to know this too. As far as I'm aware the defy's chipset supports OTG. unless they've crippled the firmware, it should be possible.

Hi,

I'm about to publish my cooked ROM and wondering if I should include a disclaimer on it.

All of us are using packages are not developed by us, and think that here is XDA we should have a common disclaimer on cooked ROMs.

Maybe some senior moderators can discuss with XDA legal dept and return with a proposal.

I'd use something like:

Disclamer: This ROM was made for testing and educational purposes. It is not intended for commercial use.

Software included may be subject to copyright.

Flash this ROM at your own risk. Developer is not responsible for what you do on your device.

Please share your thoughts.
[Windows Mobile] AndrewSh:
dude, write whatever you want :) stealing builds and re-flashing the phone can not be legalized by any senior or junior moderators :)
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
One of the start screens (maybe the alignment screen) has a microsoft copyright statement. Leave it there, and there isn't much more you can do. Distributing cooked roms is always going to be a grey area, but now that winmo is fading out, I really, really doubt anyone's gonna care.
[Windows Mobile] AndrewSh:
That's it! My shellres mui dialogue looks like that: http://asusmobile.ru/board/files/1_605.jpg

Keywords are: "But who cares?" :)

So, ypsmav, you can add your disclaimer straight to your mui....
[Windows Mobile] seeM_ZA:
Sorry for going off topic but that theme looks pretty sexy :D Could you please tell me what it is? :)

[Windows Mobile] ai6908:
This is totally true!:)
[Windows Mobile] jmart518:
This may be a really stupid question, but I am curious, how were you able to get your about screen to display "Windows Embedded handheld..."? Mine still displays "Windows Mobile 6.5..." (I'm using the same build: 29017). If I manually change the line in the mui to anything else, a lot of other things go wrong.

Thanks for any tip!
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
If you're just editing the mui with a text editor, it won't work. You need to use something like reshacker, and recompile the .mui.
[Windows Mobile] AndrewSh:
Modifying dialogs and strings in mui can not cause any problems if done correctly. How else would we be able to translate builds to local languages?

Tip is usual:

1. Recmod shellres.dll.0409.mui

2. Open it in Restorator

3. Find String # 14685 (for that case)

4. Write whatever you want - for example "Windows 95" or "Android 2.3" or "DOS" :)

5. Save changes.

6. Reversmode to cook or leave as file to copy to your phone if lazy to recook.
[Windows Mobile] jmart518:
Thanks FT, I'm actually using reshacker (I know better than that buddy :p)

Thanks Andrew, that is exactly what I have always tried, but it doesn't work. I have attached a screen shot to show what I mean. It only happens when I try and change that specific text (I simply used "Test one two", but have tried with other titles).

Problems when changed:

-"Windows Mobile Classic" gets displayed also

-OS version disappears

-Shows "No More Memory" next to Memory

***EDIT UPDATE***

I wasn't able to get it to work correctly, but I did find an easy workaround though (I stole your title Andrew, thanks man!)

This is starting to bug me..... for no reason the 4g connection and even when I turn off the mobile network, wait a few minutes and turn it back on, it still wont work until I reboot the phone. Sometimes rebooting it doesn't work and I have to pull the battery.

Anyone know whats causing this? When this is happening I see the ^ arrow on the 4g connection lit up like a christmas tree but nothing is uploading and theres no data connection....... HELP! :(
[Thunderbolt General] reg83ny:
Mine dropped Last night for the first time. When I first got the phone it flip from 3g to 4g at my job. Last night finally went dead. I rebooted and still no network. Then I used the new LTE switch to keep it @3g only. It worked.
[Thunderbolt General] enkrypt3d:
Where do you get the LTE switch?

I have seen it step down to 3g and back up to 4g LTE but its just sometimes 4g just chokes for no reason...... :mad:

when i bought the phone, it is very easy to get 4G in my home and work

and recently, I only can get 3G in home and 1x in work.

and it is not stable, very easy to drop.
[Thunderbolt General] enkrypt3d:
Yea sometimes 4g just hangs and it wont step down to 3g...... forcing me to reboot or hard reset ..... :(
[Thunderbolt General] dakota_96:
Hey Stoneskin,

I live in Hawaii and I have the very same issue as well. I picked up 4g easily in the "so called" extended 4g coverage region when I first got the TB. Then about the middle of last week, poof, no more 4g except for in the true 4g areas. My thought is because so many people were having 4g connectivity issues in these extended area, VZW simply stopped allowing it as a troubleshooting measure that apparently is still going on. I brought this up to VZW tech support and they were clueless as usual. I also posted in the VZW Community Forum hoping to get an answer, but none thus far.
[Thunderbolt General] thetwiztidfreak:
you could try dialing ##778# and pressing send, select edit mode, password is 000000 and then under modem settings change it to rev A. then press the menu button to save and reboot. it has helped me out in the El paso area. friend showed it to me the other day Far as i can tell is that it disables the new network that allows voice and data at the same time since that's the only difference i have noticed other than not loosing my connection anymore. I just a heads up this does not work on the latest version of virus rom RC1B3 sensless but did with previous version and several other roms i had tried
[Thunderbolt General] dakota_96:
Thanks for the tip, but it didn't work. VZW must have changed something to where extended coverage area no longer get 4g. Only those in true 4g areas. I really think this has a lot to do with the folks experiencing the constant drop 4g issues. They must have rationalized that if the extended area for 4g is not up to par and forcing 3g would be better. Only way I can explain it. From consistent 4g to only 3g. I sure miss the speeds.

[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
Sense already includes a launcher (the APK is called Rosie), but I don't see anything there saying Sense will "become a launcher." It does say the standard Android launcher will eventually be available directly from the Market though.
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
a few weeks ago Android and me, Android Central and some other popular "new sites" were reporting that Android [Google] was making people sign paper work saying that they wouldn't over lay their UI, and create custom Frameworks for their product, onto Google's Android OS.

They are wanting to cut down on the iFans and Fanberriesbeating the fragmentation drum.

So i could see Sense, TouchWiz, Motoblur and others being a series of .apks to make their phone look and act like the entire framework. And if they do fall that way then yes a proverbial "senselauncher.apk" being out there somewhere.
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
The article linked in this thread didn't specifically talk about that. I for one don't think that is very likely. Since Android is open source, manufacturers will always be able to put their own overlays/UIs on top of it if they choose, and Google would be wise to allow them to since they need the manufacturers to distribute their software to consumers. I don't see Google manufacturing devices anytime soon, and I also don't see Android become closed source anytime soon. Here's hoping at least!

The problem is in the title. I have a brand new HTC Inspire that's running 2.2.1. and I absolutely HATE the bloat ware and such that I can't get rid of, and if I don't rid my little gadget of this crap, it will basically eat at me forever. After hours of research, the conclusion I'm steering towards is that the app z4root is the best bet. My only intentions are to temporarily root the device, remove the apps that I don't want (and that I can without causing any damage), and then reboot with S-ON. That's all I want to use it for. However, after some searching around, I've come across a lot of people complaining that the current version of z4root will not be compatible with the 2.2.1 version. Is this true? I can't seem to find a concrete response anywhere and it's driving me mad. Any insight that can be offered would be of great help.

Cheers!

[Android Software Development] birchnick10:
attempts are closer

Well I have been trying to pick up where cobaltus left off.. I have android recognoizing a ds3 and can even setup.the pairing process. But of course the last hurdle remains and that is determining the Bluetooth password for the ds3 controller. What I assume is happening is that the ps3 controller sends out a randomly generated password each time the USB cable is connected ... so what I need is to see the backend or the code psjoy is receiving . Are there any windows developers out there that could open up cobalt controller and see how it gets the Bluetooth passcode for.the controller. Besides that...we have it. Everyone is welcome on this project!

[Android Software Development] palmboy5:
I haven't used CobaltController in almost a year, but I remember the pairing process meant that I needed to connect the controller to my computer first and use some program (in Windows) that could access the controller to tell it that it is paired to my phone's Bluetooth MAC address.

Hi all,

I have searched forum regarding photo quality, and i have seen recommendations like removing plastic(CCD shield) from the back of the phone, but i am not interested in mechanical modifications.

is there any difference in picture quality when taking photos with various HTC Desire(bravo) roms?.....or all of them output same JPG quality compression?.

Thank you in advance
[Desire General] davebugyi:
Personally, did not notice any difference.

Only that the audio recording is miles better with videos on HD Roms (default camera app).

Sent from my customized HTC Desire using TTP
[Desire General] dado023:
thanks for the response mate,

so your recommendation would be HD rom to Regular HTC desire, because of improved audio quality.

Any particular rom in your experience you noticed better audio?

cheers
[Desire General] /rant/:
When the early HD/Z ROMs came out and I flashed them, I seemed to have at least some camera quality issues with my device, especially in low light situations. However, the overall quality was still good. Not great, but more than acceptable.

I think if there was indeed an issue with the camera, it has in the meantime been fixed - and indeed with my current Z ROM I don't notice any difference at all. I use Cool Z.

Have fun :D
[Desire General] dado023:
was the quality better than with stock HTC rom?

btw: low light situations require you to change to higher ISO level, but that is a trade off, because you will get more noise in the photo....i always try to take a shoot with ISO 100, when possible.
[Desire General] davebugyi:
Insertcoin for sure, but all HD/Z ROM ports should have it. But strangely it does not affect the 720p recording (still sh*tty sound). Checked my mate's DHD - same issue, every other option records with great sound, but 720p is 8khz mono.

Recommend using LGCamera if you want to shoot in 720p with HQ audio.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] textron:
Due to my touch screen slowly losing it's touch accuracy on my cracked screen I'm being forced to replace my Touch Pro 2 Verizon. I decided to go with the Fascinate which will be my second no WM phone and first since 2005 I believe. My contract is up in May as well. I decided against paying 80 or 90 to get a Omnia II or Imagio. I don't think I could stomach WM without a keyboard.

I am interested in WP7 but it seems to be in a very early stage. Verizon doesn't even have a WP7 device at all. I was surprised to see some complaint messages on VZW's own message board about the lack of devices.

Is it better for someone who like to fiddle with their phones a lot to wait until updates with IE9 and multitasking, maybe even new devices come out or do you think its pretty good to go ahead now? Will a techie be able to live with it day to day?

I have a WP7 device in my house but the female is pretty tight gripped with her phone but I have liked what I've seen.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfranceschi:
Think about it this way. You already like what you have seen. Well, it WONT get worse. I used to hate my WM 6.5 keyboard, but it was because screen was resistive. I have a Samsung Focus and I love it. Once multitasking gets out there, it can only get better and better.

No other software company has a better potential to integrate an ecosystem than MS.

I believe Verizon will launch its first WP7 device in the coming weeks.
