Cherry Mobile has updated its ROM to 2.2.2, battery life is way better than WellCom 2.2.2. Its been 2 days and it still ave 70% left, with some WiFi and movie watching now and then. Since I'm new I can't post link here but check out cherrymobile website. Installation instruction is included as well.

EDIT: Oh man I don't see the first post first.
[Huawei Ideos X6] cmloo:
TQ for the detailed instructions. However is there a way to backup existing ROM. I afraid if just in case need to bring back to CSL...the splash screen or diff interface
[Huawei Ideos X6] cmloo:
Hi nX3NTY...can this Cherry version be Rooted with Super Once click as like the CSL?

Seek you help to clarify some stuffs as compared to CSL

1. Do we lose any functionality like the hdmi output display

2. does the Cherry ROM solve issues with CSL such as constant " data connection fail" or the erratic screen responsiveness

3. dark camera images

4. Unable to install some apps error from Market.

Lastly...would u have the CSL ROM just in case we need to send back for warranty claims?

Thanks in advance
[Huawei Ideos X6] nX3NTY:
Yes it is still compatible with SuperOneClick with rageagainstthecage exploit.

1. There is no reason to lose functionality, all of this ROM is fully compatible, its not ported, all of this are the same phone

2. Yes, I never had lost connection error yet, I did have it with WellCom ROM and CSL ROM. I noticed this occur faster if the phone is warm after prolong use.

3. Its slightly better but I don't use camera much

4. Never had such problem

No, I don't do any backup. I don't care much about warranty.

I get about 3-4 days with this ROM. Bear in mind I don't use it often, only few minutes of WiFi in the morning and about 30-45 minutes of video per day, and only on GSM network, no 3G, GPRS and such plus I only at 384MHz most of the time unless I play games because its fast enough, controlled via SetCPU.

Also I found a site that develops custom ROM. The site is:

h t t p ://android4u.x10.mx/2011/06/custom-rom-for-wellcomm-a99spice-mi410-or-huawei-x6-or-variants/

I haven't tried it yet, I have no idea how to install them, using Titanium backup or clockwork backup perhaps? I still new to Android so I need instructions how to use it

There are now a few showing up on Ebay for the desire s.......

Can anyone confirm if the dock works OK if the phone has a case...ie. Otterbox commuter or Barely there case?...thanks
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
I bought one of ebay.

Works fine, the phone lays on its side and plugs into the charger.

I got the one with a spare battery charger at the back.

Fits well and at about £12.00 good value.

The blue led on top is very bright, I have mine beside my bed so as to use the phone as an alarm clock, so I had to tape over the LED. Or have a blue ceiling.

@gordonendersby

Could you post a link to the dock, please.
[HTC Desire S] zoombini:
Do u have a case on ur desire?
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
Here's the dock I have.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?index=4&nav=SEARCH&nid=04031654468&itemId=120722797935

I have a cheap skin on my phone which is fairly chunky so it won't fit in the charger with the skin on.

A thinner skin may work.

But its not a problem slipping it off to fit on the dock.

Gordon
[HTC Desire S] zoombini:
Seen this on Amazon:

Clingo Desktop Stand Dock Holder For HTC Desire S

(can't post link as I'm a nube!)

but again it may not stick with a case on. Anyone got experience of using Clingos?
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
They are on ebay as well.

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_from...lingo+Desktop+Stand&_sacat=See-All-Categories

Its not a dock but a stand.

No charging and relies on a special sticky surface to hold the phone.

So you have to use a charger as well.

Gordon
[HTC Desire S] zoombini:
Gordon,

Do they work with cases? The website doesnt give much info re this. I presume silicon cases wouldnt work. I see they do car mounts aswell...could b handy. Thanks

Generally docks wont allow a case to be fitted. For those in the UK, I recommend Mobilefun for phone accessories. Here are their line-up of Desire S docks...

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/Desire-S-Desktop-Chargers.htm

Due to the placement of the USB socket on the LHS though, the docks all seem to require you have the phone in landscape mode. Fine for watching vids, browsing etc, but Sense 2.1 still doesn't rotate the home screens when in landscape mode so not decided on getting one yet. There's always Launcher Pro I suppose.
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
No the one Ive got doesnt work with a case on.

Theres one on mobilefun looks the same as mine but more expensive by quite a bit.

i don't know about other countries, but htc australia has genuine docks available from their online store.

no cases yet though. :(
[HTC Desire S] GuestK00466:
Clingo + Desire (S) in case = a lot of juggling

I've tried Clingos with a Desire in a case - frankly I wouldn't bother.

I spent more time catching mine as it tumbled to the floor than watching the road(!).

If you don't have a case it's not too bad although I'd probably say that it held on for around 60% of the time. Great idea and probably better on a desk or stationary surface. Ideally you should be able to lay it flat too....

I got mine from Mobilefun and their customer service assured me it would be "fine". Normally MobileFun are a fine supplier but on this occasion....

I'll be taking their advice with several pinches of salt in future.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
+1 on that.

Those clingy holders only work on cool days and on smooth surfaces. On a warm day going around a roundabout.....you instinctively take your eyes of the road to catch your phone....you just can't trust em. They are perfectly good as desk holders though. You dont go around many corners at them.
[HTC Desire S] a_petrov303:
there is a Desire hd in the picture and description - can anyone clarify this please?
[HTC Desire S] looktall:
it only mentions desire HD once as far as i can see.

everything else says desire s, including the image.

i'm assuming that the dock is either similar or identical to the one for the desire hd and they just copy pasted the page, but missed a reference to the desire hd.

EDIT: there's a second desire s dock on that site and the description mentions the HD7.

You can get a dock from Amazon
[HTC Desire S] Rueben_:
I second the amazon dock again i also second the cant post link because im a noob lol
[HTC Desire S] :
As posted earlier, I use one of those clingy rubber type holders as a desk stand. They work perfectly well with cases, even my Case-Mate Tough Case with it's textured back. The stickiness does decrease over time as air-borne fluff sticks to the gripping pad, but a quick wipe with a wet cloth returns it to full sticky.

Just please don't use them in your car!

Just downloaded the up to date MKSIP WP7 skin which I am using with MIROM 1 v5...

Awesome.

Just downloaded and installed the WVGA version and it seems to work pretty well, and looks reasonably nice (10.4mb cab file). I'm running it on top of feroponts WM 6.5.5 with SPB Shell 3.5.5 rom.

EDIT: Really liking this theme. Requires some of the tab's setting up (like the camera tab etc), but once done that it's great :-) Can't see a WP7 screen lock option yet however, but will look for it.

Note: This should really be in the 'themes and apps' section though, as it's not a ROM.

Hello everyone,

first of all, my english is bad. I'm french.

Let me introduce my problem : I want to create a widget, that will look like a bi-dimensionnal table. With x and y.

Please look at the following schema describing the behaviour I expect :

h t t p : / / i52 . tinypic . com / 2q2mj34.jpg (Sorry, not allowed to put links)

Why will I use 3 scrollviews instead of a single TableLayout ? Because I want this table to be resizable. Then all the scrollviews should be synchronized, when scrolling x represented by ScrollView 1 (horizontally), the canvas scrolls in X. The same when scrolling in y for ScrollView2.

How am I supposed to build the widget? I choosed to extend RelativeLayout for the main Class. I want the data that will be displayed by the widget to be refreshable. This data will be :

- X Labels

- Y Labels

- and Tracks (for coloured things in the grid)

Should I use an adapter? How am I supposed to do ?

Thank you very much for all your contributions, even the shortest.

Regards,

C.O.

hi

Does anyone know what i can do to connect to a hidden network at work?

it is secured by wep and hidden. My iphone sees it and connect no probs. it seem to be affecting htc phones onyl, no matter what the rom is.

i cannot access the access point at all to check anything
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daz555:
It is some HTC foul up. Neither my wife's Desire or my DHD will see my Netgear WLAN when SSID is hidden. All other devices are fine.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Uhh did you try to just add the network (manually enter SSID, encryption, password)? This should work with hidden WiFi networks too.

Oh and on a side note. Hiding WiFi networks is completely useless in terms of security. Every moron who can use Google & download the right tool will be able to find it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alxdad:
Try changing security on your router from WPA2-PSK to WPA-PSK. With my TP Link TL-WR1043ND router that worked.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZedeN:
Had the same problem connecting to my University's Wi-Fi, thankfully they made a guide how to do it on androids. Try following the steps here but editing for your network.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErOR22:
When Wifi is hidden it's hidden so it wouldn't be picked up by a average person thus you need to enter information manually, same as on PC. Though hidden networks are really not that hidden lol they just don't broadcast the SSID.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doran1801:
thank for you helpful input, i know hiding ssid is pointless. i do not manage the network.

and yes i did try to add manuall, else why would i know it does not connect?

Hi

I am developing a new android application which should read, insert and update data in MS Access DB.

but I couldn't find any cods to do so!!

So is it possible to do that or if there is any workaround to it ??

Thanks
[Android Software Development] Odissey:
You could achieve this using JDBC-ODBC drivers,

check this out and tell me :

planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=2691&lngWId=2
[Android Software Development] fat7owl:
Thanks for your reply, I tried it but its keep throwing the following error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver

I don't have much experience in java, but I have done every thing as it mentioned in both methods
[Android Software Development] fat7owl:
any help ????????
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
I would guess that the JDBC drivers are not something normally included in a stripped down VM like dalvik. You're probably not going to be able to achieve this in as simple a manner as you expected.

Is there some reason you have to use a JET database? Android has built-in support for SQLite which is an open-source DB and has many advantages over JET.

Another option might be pure XML which could be imported to a JET engine on a PC platform.

What is the nature of your program? Perhaps there's a better way to do this.
[Android Software Development] fat7owl:
hi

the story is :

I have a program which is windows based and use MS access DB, I have to build another program which should run on Android and able to read, Insert and update that DB.

note:

We will use it alog with the windows based program.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] fat7owl:
any ideas??
[Android Software Development] fat7owl:
any help ??
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Without the JET database engine for anrdoid, I don't think it will be possible. Why not use sqlite with the windows app? Why not use XML with both?

[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
Hi folks,

I have a T-Mobile branded HD2 that gets stuck on bootscreen. Since this one is owned by the company I work for I should not flash custom ROMs or whatever. I got it from a colleague with this error.

What I did is downloading the latest official ROM from HTC with T-Mobile branding, extracted the .nbh file and stored it as LEOIMG.nbh on its SD card. I flashed the ROM, removed battery, put it back in and immediately did a hard reset. Still no luck it keeps stuck in the boot screen showing the ugly circle. No animation, no nothing.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Chris
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
What is the full name of the official ROM you got .and did I understand you correst you got it from the T-Mobile website? Also what does it say when you put it in BOOt loader?
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
Filename:

_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_TMO_DE_1.72.111.4_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe

Download from:

http://www.htc.com/de/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2

I am not sure what you mean with bootloader? VolDwn+Power?

PB1100 HX-BC

SPL-1.66.000 XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(Touch) 0x50

Let me know in case you need more details.
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
It gets even more weird...

I put the phone on charge (switched off). It suddenly switched itself on and then booted into windows. It came to the point where it asks for the PIN. I entered it and as soon as it accepted the code it rebooted again and is stuck on the same screen as ever.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Sorry I was changing my ROM, That is why it took a minute, Are you sure you have a T-Mobile HD2? Cause it says in the name of the ROM you posted that it has a 2.07.51.22 and that radio is deadly to a T-Mobile HD2.

Does it have a green send button and a red end button?

Also did you enter the serial number of your HD2 in the HTC site to verify that this ROM is for your HD2?

What you said about it rebooting when you plugged the charger in is weird.
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
I bought this HTC (and several others) all from T-Mobile, since we got some company agreement. When I first got it disfunctional it booted up with this circular bootscreen in T-Mobile colors. I personaly own a Desire HD, so I know about the uncustomized bootscreen.

This is T-Mobile for Germany, not UK or US. For the US version the radio won´t work since bands are different. I have heard about that...

This device does not have colored buttons.

Yes, I have entered the serial number on this site and it has been validated. Then I downloaded and unpacked it just the way it is described in this forum.

I also tried to download the original, latest, unbranded HTC ROM, but it did not validate my SN.

I have reformatted the original 2GB SD card with FAT32 and tried the same. After it says UPDATE SUCCESS it does nothing. Is this correct?

I took off the battery and after a couple of seconds back in, doing a hard reset. It then still got stuck on the bootscreen.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Ok do this download the Task 29 by ShaDrak from post #1 of the Task 29 thread here on XDA and run a Task 29 on the HD2 then download HSPL 4 (link in my sig) and flash HSPL 3.03. then try to flash your ROM again. If it flashes successfully then use the HSPL utility to reset y our correct SPL. I will have to go see if I can find the correct SPL for you if you don't know whioch one it is.
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
Thanks for your help, but I think I´ll rather return it for a new one then. This HD2 is for testing our mobile website, so one developer will need to wait a little longer for a replacement. This smartphone is 3 weeks old (half a week of use due to vacation), so I do not want to brick it and stick with it. Last time I did HSPL was with my old diamond, feels like a decade ago.

I am limited with downloads at my company due to firewall restrictions and I am not allowed to install programs. I am glad that I got USB allowed, though I am part of the admin crew :mad:

I´d even take it home, but I do not have windows running on any of my computers.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
This is what I mean by bootloader, once you see the multicolor bootloader screen connect it to your computer via USB and wait for the Serial to change to USB and Right click the RUU for the ROM and run as administrator.

I understand you not wanting to brick it and your issue with downloads, that does suck. But the task 29 just does a wipe of the ROM partition of the NAND memory and reformats that partition. Task 29 is a very small download also, very very small, the same with HSPL 4. I suggested HSPL for as it will disable the CID check on the flash and allow you to flash a ROm that is not for that particular HD2. And all you have to do to revert back is run the HSPL again but pick the SPL not the HSPL you want, it ask you what version of HSPL or SPL you want to flash. Also you have a International HD2 and they are not as prone to bricking as the TMOUS because they can be flashed with any radio version for the HD2.
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
It comes to my mind that I have a damn old windows installation on my computer. Maybe I´ll give it a try at home over the weekend.

The phone does not even switch from serial to USB mode as you described. Could it be because there is no active sync installed? I tried it with my personal Desire HD and I got access to its SD card.

How do I find out which SPL to flash to have it back to its original state? Is it the 1.66.000 that was shown in bootloader? Where do I get it?
[HD2 General] Tachi91:
Go into the Bootloader and it should say the SPL version

Mines for example is

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

CotullaHSPL

If yours should say SPL-(version number) without the HSPL/Cotulla since it shouldnt have HSPL

If Windows has the drivers for the HD2 installed (Active Sync/Center installed) it will say USB as long as the plugs and the wire are good if it stays stuck on Serial that just means either the HD2 isn't detecting windows or Windows isn't detecting it
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yes I think the SPL 1.66 is the SPL for the 1.72.111.4 ROM you are trying to flash. The phone is technically suppose to install the drivers when you connect it to a computer in bootloader, but I have had to download and install the ActiveSync and the Windows Mobile Device Center too to get a computer to recognize my HD2 in bootloader (two separate computers) so yes installing the latest ActiveSync on your computer can help as it has device USB drivers with it.
[HD2 General] Boradan:
Dont install ANYTHING.

If the phone is only 3 weeks old, send the damned thing back for a replacement.

Had the same problem with a european t-Mobile HD2. Sometimes (rarely) let me boot into windows, but mostly didnt.

Sent it back to HTC and they fixed and returned it within a week. Actually they said on their site that they were fixing it, but I ended up with a new phone......

So... either return it to your supplier for replacement, or send it off to HTC

Andy
[HD2 General] Ferrosti:
I don´t know how, but I got it running on the day we have been discussing.

If I only knew how it worked I´d let you know.

After all this I put it on the charger and retried a last time before I would have taken it home (read above). I flashed the new T-Mobile branded ROM and it just worked.

Thanks for your help!
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
Hi

I really want Voodoo Sound for the Optimus 2X, but without the kernel sound source it's not possible, Supercurio did contact LG USA but I don't know if he got any answer, so I contacted LG Sweden yesterday and got answers today (they are very quick to answer, thumbs up)

I just told them I need the kernel sound source and explained about Voodoo Sound and so on, quite long message, anyway, the first answer was this:

"We will not release our internal source of sound kernel and is it that you get hold of it, it's nothing that we have officially released and that means then that if you start experimenting with the source code to the warranty on your phone can be broken."

Then I replied that there was no risks with releasing the kernel sound source, it's just great if we can get it and the phones sound will greatly improve with Voodoo Sound and it's not amateurs that is doing this, it's pro people that know what they are doing, and that a lot of Optimus 2X users would be very happy if we get Voodoo Sound.

Then I got a reply from another guy that said this:

"I've put your request on internally at LG and we'll see what the Korean says, I am linking back to you when I received a reply, you may feel free to reply to this email as I have you in my inbox."

I replied: Thanks for the reply, very appreciated, you have no idea how happy Optimus 2X owners will be if LG Korea would release the sound source and not tell us that there is risks with it hehe:), there is absolutely no risk with it as I said (otherwise I would not contacted you from the start), everything is just positive and I hope you are doing everything possible to persuade LG Korea to release the sound kernel, like I said the many would be very happy with Voodoo Sound, with the Voodoo Sound it's like night and day

Well now we have to pray to God that the Koreans sees this like a positive thing, I think LG Sweden would have released it if they could.

edit: maybe wrong section? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] albireox:
Thanks Gilg@mesh for doing this. It would be great to have Voodoo Sound on the O2X aswell, mostly since the hardware seems to be the same as in SGS or Galaxy Tab (Wolfson EM8994). Let's see what the guys in Koreea have to say about this.
