Can you do the Daytona with the 3 buttons on the side showing and is it possible to do it with a working date window on the face?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] GateWayGee:
Thanks for all your work gadget! love the bios boot screen
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] gadget!:
You don't ask for much do you.

No date - sorry :(

Update

Updated 1st post...

Added working date window to Rolex watches.

And just for HarleyFan...
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] HarlyFan:
They look great I cant wait to get home and load this one and the Daytona, Thanks Gadget!!!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] HarlyFan:
Were you able to get the date window to actually work or is it fixed?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Yes, it is a working date!

There is no date window on the Daytona.

I searched Google images and if the Daytona comes with a date window, I couldn't find one.

I must be doing something wrong, what is the best way to load the file? I know you say to use CWR but how because it is not working for me?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] gadget!:
More info...

What's not working?

Which file, or is it both files?

Sent from my B.A.M.F. Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] HarlyFan:
Both the files are not working for me, I have never used CWR before so i'm sure i'm not doing it right, any help with that is appreciated, other then that i'm sure your files are fine its just me
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Boot into cmr and select "install zip from sdcard > choose file > yes

That should do it.

Then once you reboot...

Menu > personalize > clock

You will need to scroll through the clocks until you fond the one you want.

BIOS boot animation

I have been wanting this since the first time I saw it in the "flashable" version. I wanted to let you know that there may be a small tweak for the file names. I'm using chingy's "THE PERFECT STORM" rom and the files were all in as listed (system/customize/resource) but the bootanimation.zip is titled "VZW_bootanimation.zip". So when I placed your file in there I named it both the bootanimation setup and VZW_bootanimation so that it would find the file no matter what on startup. I didn't want to take any chances, as I've seen the phone blow 5 peoples hands and ears off during phone calls if files were improperly named. I poop you not. Well, maybe.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] m00nshake:
Gadget... Do you have the Thunderbolt wallpaper with lightning across the top that has Bamf written in black across it. Its default on Bamf 1.5 but I can't find out which sub directory its under to pull it from the rom. Thanks in advance.

Gadget,

I m trying to find the skin ShowerBAMF. the only thing i found in one of the threads was a thumbnail. Where is the skin located...thats a bad ass skin!

That skin was done exclusively for the BAMF ROM.

It's included in the ROM, I told them I wouldn't post it.

I downloaded the rolex.zip from post 3 to my SD card. I then booted into CMR and made a Nand backup. I then selected Install zip from SD card and selected the rolex.zip and then YES, like normal. Everything seemed to go fine and once complete it said Complete, so i then select Go Back and then select reboot system. once my phone came up, I go to Personalize, Add a Widget and then go to Clock and I still only have the stock 6 that came with the phone, none of the rolex's show up. Any suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Dcox28:
I don't see it in the OP but thinking maybe the reason I don't see the clocks after install is because i'm running 2.1 sense and maybe these are for 2.0 only?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] gadget!:
You are correct.

I updated the original post to avoid any further confusion.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Dcox28:
Haha, thanks Gadget. Thats what I thought when I installed and did see the clockwidget folder with the 7 rolex clock folders inside it but they wouldn't show up under Personalize, Widget, Clock(HTC). I may not have used any of your skins or eye candy yet but they do look great, any chance of the rolex clocks making it to 2.1 sense?

[Milestone 2 General] waigx:
Hello,

My music player ( pre-installed in Milestone 2 UK retail ) go freeze sometimes, especially after a song finished.

This happened randomly and not so frequently, sometime music player works perfect even I played all songs ( 80+ songs ). So I don't know whether a solution really works immediately.

After the music player freezed, I cannot operate any thing in the player interface, just force close the player in process manager, restart the player, then I can't play songs anymore ( freeze again ) .

And, I can't start any SD-related apps like video players and some games ( like Asphalt 6 ). But I can copy/cut files in the file manager.

Remount SD card or reboot the phone, everything backs to normal.

Is this the microSD's problem?

I tried different ways to format it but never solve the problem, and, Watching movies/Playing games goes well. I also try to replace the music playing libs with Droid X's (http://yuanjie.name/entry/milestone-2-mp3-crackling-playback-issue-solved), but music player freeze again last night.

I have no idea what happened.:(

Thanks in advance.
[Milestone 2 General] MegaBubbletea:
Try an alternative music player such as WinAmp or PowerAmp.

Check if your problem persists.
[Milestone 2 General] waigx:
Thank you very much!

I'm try PowerAMP now, I really enjoy this powerful app.:p

I'll give a feedback if it doesn't freeze after several days.
[Milestone 2 General] kalbit:
This looks like SD Card issue. New player won't help IMO. Try testing on another dard.
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I really think it's a kernel problem, or at least a problem with the media scanner. Sadly, I think we'll have to wait for GB update =/
[Milestone 2 General] MegaBubbletea:
For GT540 or M2? I think ur i the wrong thread mate. :D
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I didn't say anything about GT540 =]

I'm in the same situation as he is: an issue with high capacity sd cards on milestone 2
[Milestone 2 General] dymonaz:
Welcome to the club.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=929901
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I read the thread, it has some similarities with the problems that waigx and I are facing. Can you open any other application after PowerAMP shuts down? Does it really shuts down or crash (stays in memory but doesn't execute anything)? Can you open a file manager when this happens?
[Milestone 2 General] dymonaz:
I'm using Cubed as my player - though all other players I tried (default from Motorola, Meridian, PowerAMP, WinAmp) behaved exactly the same.

Sometimes the player keeps on thinking it is still playing (i.e. track progress is moving without sound), but usually it just ends up with ANR. All other applications [that I need] seem to work fine after this. I do seem to remember Goggles and Camera not responding after a crash, but they crash on their own anyways, so can't really put blame on music player crashing.

A couple of times I did have a case where I couldn't open up SD card anymore, but I've gotten so used to this (8 hours of work+music with 2-3 crashes [or more?] every day) that I stopped trying - just reboot and continue where I left off.

The crashes happen around the same time (but not exact) - around lunch, then at around 3-4pm. Sometimes it also crashes when I'm on my way home ~6-7pm. I think it is somewhat related to power management - I notice it crashes more often as the battery is going down (although I do charge pretty much every night) and there's that "standby called" log message. I did try various battery settings with no luck - any suggestions what I could try more?

There were also a couple of times where I would just leave it at rest after a crash, then start Angry Birds (seemed to reset media/sound system or something), or just wait 15-30 minutes and the sound would come back and the player would unfreeze after a force close and everything would work fine. Until the next crash, that is.

I'll try the remount SD trick and I'll double check the file manager the next time it does this - presumably just after lunch on Monday ;)
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I freezed the media scanner with Titanium Backup and scanned music media with PowerAMP, but I had the same problem afterwards... Looks like a deeper problem or a problem with the sd card
[Milestone 2 General] anupash:
This thing has worked on my gf's milestone 2 ... but I am not sure if it will work for you ...

1.) Backup ur device/settings/messages etc

2.) Factory reset the device

3.) Sign in your motoblur a/c after factory reset

Immediately after that

4.) Open connected Music Player .. press menu button and find the options for tunewiki lyrics/covert art downloader ... uncheck all of those

5) Settings->DataManager-> somewhere u will find similar options as above .. disable all of those

Basic Idea is to completely diasble all sort of data that the connected Music Player will ever need ....

Sorry, I could not give you the exact Menu operations because I dont have the device with right now... But it works if u r ready to do the factory reset...

You will actually like the Connected Music Player after this because it has a nice shoutcast integration and neither does it crash so often like Winamp...

Also as far as I know the bug with the Connected Music Player is such that Music in all sort of other players including Winamp also stops working ..

Tell me if it works
[Milestone 2 General] waigx:
My Goggles and Camera also always crashed long time ago, but your problems is really stranger than mine.

I think you should WIPE your phone ( don't forget backup data before it ).
[Milestone 2 General] frenetico:
Before I flashed the Argen2Stone ROM, I suffered from the same problem. The CMP froze spontaneously.

Now - after using A2S - I never recognized such a behavior again.
[Milestone 2 General] waigx:
Hey anupash,

I really appreciate for your detailed answer, I was bought PowerAMP. Even thought it cost $4.99, but I think it worth that.

I delete up CMP in the file system, my phone runs well in these days. Players like Winamp, realone are using system decode libs, so they also meet some problems I guess.

Connected Music Player have a great integration with the whole system, but I need data sync and album-arts.

Thank you again, If I meet additional problems I'll post in this thread later.

Best regards.
[Milestone 2 General] dymonaz:
File manager seemed to work - at least for browsing the folders.

Unmounting SD killed the player. Remounting it back and trying to play anything made the phone reboot on it's own. Go figure.

Thanks for the tip :) Sadly, I don't have time for this now - as I mentioned - I pretty much got used to it constantly crashing... But I'll probably do that if the upcoming (hopefully soon...) MotoEurope update doesn't help.
[Milestone 2 General] Neuralsystem:
Im having this problem also. Random freezes at playback... using winamp there´s no problem...
[HTC Aria General] sqs:
I know this may seem stupid to a lot of people on here, but I want to switch from my rooted 2.1 Aria and update it to 2.2. The main reason I want to do this is for the apps that are only available for froyo (I loved my rooted phone, but I also want the update).

I downloaded the RUU 2.2 from the HTC site and went through the process. The only problem is that my phone did not update. The info on the phone says that it's version 2.2.2, but the UI and everything else is still 2.1 format. Basically the brain is froyo, but the body is eclair. I contacted customer service, and they said that I would need to send my phone in for repair since it was rooted (i.e. broken to them).

I would rather not send in my phone and deal with them. Can anyone think of any solution to this problem? Thanks!
[HTC Aria General] drumist:
Well, it's too late now, but you could have simply installed the Liberated 2.2.2 update from this site -- which is basically the AT&T official update with the bloatware removed and it lets you retain root access on your phone.

Anyway, what makes you believe that your UI is still 2.1? Honestly there is very little visually different between 2.1 and 2.2.2 so it wouldn't look very different anyway.
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
The version of HTC Sense did not change much between Android 2.1 and 2.2. If you phone says that it's version 2.2.2 then the update probably took. As the previous posted mentioned, you are not going to see much difference in the UI. If you look in the list of installed apps, you should see some news, including the Wifi Hotspot.
[HTC Aria General] sqs:
Thanks for the replies so far. The reason why I say it's still a 2.1 UI is because from what I've seen of screenshots of froyo, it looks different. The froyo interface (at least from what I've seen) looks like the current one that cyanogenmod is using. I know the current cyanogenmod is based on Gingerbread, but I was thinking that there wasn't a big difference between gingerbread and froyo, while the big difference change was between eclair and froyo. Also, my hboot version is 1.02. Is this a sign of 2.1 or 2.2?

I am still not able to install 2.2 only apps (such as Flash 10.2) on my phone, which is why I'm thinking it's still partially stuck in 2.1.
[HTC Aria General] tedkunich:
You will never be able to install Flash on your device since it requires an ARM7 processor, ours have a ARM6 (at least until Adobe build a version that does not require the ARM7 instructions set). If your Hboot is 1.02, then your phone DID take the update - you are stuck with it until if/when someone is able find a new root exploit.

T
[HTC Aria General] sqs:
Ok thanks a lot for that! I'm still learning all the intricacies of the droid processing system. Let's hope for a root for 2.2 soon.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
You're thinking of the updated AOSP look. The Aria uses the HTC Sense UI which didnt change at all on the Aria between 2.1 and 2.2 (not visually anyway). hboot 1.02 is definitely an update to 2.2.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
all right. I've found various things about this on the web regarding other HTC phones, but I can't seem to find if anyone else has had this problem with their shift... This morning I realized that the "clear" button in the notification dropdown on CM7 wasn't working for me. I wrote it off as a weird bug. But then I tried to play angry birds, and I can't drag them back, they just fall right off the slingshot.

So I zoom in and I can pull the birds back, but when I get to this strip on the screen, they fly off without my picking my finger up.

Besides the clear button, screen presses generally seem to work, atleast when I'm selecting icons in landscape mode from my home screens. But the n1 style live wallpaper will respond to touches in this "strip" of screen by shooting off the lines around it instead of in it. Also, when I tried to drag to a different homescreen and stop in this strip, it will bounce back. same thing with notification bar. If I try to start dragging the screen from this "strip" I get no movement. The weird thing, of course is that this part of the screen isn't completey dead in terms of responding to touches, because it does register on my device that it is being touched, but drags, the notification menu clear button, the live wallpaper, and, of course, angry birds act funky when I use this part of the screen.

I guess I have to go back to sprint. I think I'm just going to flash a stock rom, but not unroot it.

I also don't have time, so I'm kind of just hoping it will go away.

ANYWAYS... anyone else having touchscreen issues with their HTC EVO shift?
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
PS: I think clocking my kernel at 800 instead of the 1200 I was using might have something to do with this?

Was running at 800 to preserve battery life, but back at 1200 after a nandroid restore and the problem seems fixed.

2 be clear, I had this issue on CM7 and MikFroyo, so I don't think it could be software related. But CPU clocking related.

Yeah, I also doubt that is the case.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crazychapmand:
My screen had a freek out. With out touching the screen it would open and close apps jump screens and when I touched the screen I would get no response at all. Had to RUU and send it in for a new phone it was in the connection with the screen. So the sooner you ask for a replacement the better.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
did you just call? any tips? I'm wondering if I can handle this over the phone or not. Also - what did you do while you were waiting for the new phone to come in?
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
turns out it was the friggen screen protector. however, before I realized that I called my local repair shop and they said that they would be able to swap my phone out for a new/refurb one for $35. Too bad it isn't actually an issue, because I've noticed that the phone is a little less responsive to touch even with the screen protector off... it's just that its not clearly an issue at this point.
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
I actually had a similar issue with a replacement phone where the left side about 1/8" wouldn't respond (couldn't press q button on keyboard at all). After some research I found out about a great lil app to test screen touch response and any bad areas and it helped me diagnose that it in fact was the screen having a fault...look up "touch test" in the appstore and it should narrow down where and if your screen has a bad area that's not responding...it helped to get my in-store replacement in and out the store since I could show them the issue right away along side an in-store model. I hope this helps and I that I read the post correctly. Let me know if it helps you.
[EVO Shift 4G General] minlo:
My screen had a dead line going across the middle of the screen but only when swiping side to side, for some reason vertically it was fine....

unrooted, went to sprint store repaired in less than 30 minutes...
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
Awesome tip, dude. This will help me get a replacement for sure. The issue came back and this is solid proof it exists. Gonna make it hard for anyone to pretend there isn't a problem. Thanks!
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
No problem...glad to help...it definitely saved me time...I installed it on my phone and the stores phone and compared them side by side...that way they can't give you a BS answer of "screen needs calibration" etc etc. Lemme know how it goes.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crazychapmand:
Sorry didn't respond faster. I just called them and they sent me a new phone next day and I sent them the old phone. Easy as pie no problems with the reps or the techs they didn't argue about it at all. It did take a long time on the phone because they were checking the phone settings no sure what this was but oh well. Just remember to ruu back.

Killer Shift
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
So they ended up still pretending that there wasn't an issue, saying that maybe it was just the touchtest app. It took a while to convince them that it wasn't just an app.. but after I left it with them for an hour (an hour where I'm sure they did nothin) I came back and showed them the issue again, compared it to the shift that they had, and they finally agreed to order me a refurb. A hassle, but a necessary one.
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
Sounds like they just hated looking bad and that you had proven them wrong so they put up a wall...nonetheless I'm glad it ended up working out and hope the replacement phone works out for ya...
[EVO Shift 4G General] mulhiny:
Agreed..It's awful how there is no set policies when it comes to service. Your fate pretty much rests with the tech you happen to get. Some are easy to get along with and some (obviously) aren't.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BaBnkr:
The Refurb is great... oh, and FYI - don't use displex on touchscreens hahaha.

Hey everyone-

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way, or at least a theoretical way, to get internet on your phone via a usb cable using your pc's wired ethernet connection. The reason I ask this is because I've gone into plenty of areas where wired internet is available but wireless isn't? Any ideas or help would be appreciated, and if nothing exists I'm willing to partner with a dev to make this happen possibly. Thanks again.

-sincerely, bobofosho123 :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da_dragon2k3:
I don't think there is a way to do this via usb yet. But you should try this

1. bridge your wireless and wired connection

2. setup an ad-hoc network on your pc.

This is assuming you are using a laptop and have some version of win7 installed. For more detailed instructions google both of those steps individually.

Hello everyone,

I am introducing an app that I've been slowly working on for several weeks.

This app is to connect your android device to BlueSocket wifi hotspots.

These hotspots are used in many colleges and universities across the world. However, the authentication method used with this system is sometimes not steady. You might get the prompt to log in, and sometimes you might not.

This app comes in there, This app is to let your phone authenticate without having to type in your password and username over and over again or having to zoom into the login page.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.emdnet.bsa

The app is still in beta and all feedback should be sent to me through email or through this thread.

Autoconnection is not yet stable either.
