Going back a little, I would still like to recommend the Altrix (especially if its rooted), but I have recently taken a look at the Market, and it seems like the XPERIA Play will have a HUGE game catalog. Too bad Sony made it.

How is the thunderbolt? Will the attic get gingerbread?

Xperia play has 512 MB ram :-/

They have unlocked the bootloader so fingers crossed
[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
I'm worried that the Play's games can't be played on phones with unlocked bootloader (piracy and all that).

I'd still go with the Altrix. It's powerful enough to run a netbook.

Better one between the LG 2x and atrix?
[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Depends on who you trust. I'm more inclined to go for Motorola than LG when it comes to device build, but that's just me.

I've seen the Thunderbolt, it's not that impressive, my friend has it and his battery is not too good. It doesn't last that long.

hey i saw this thread abt battery calibration .. but i'm stuck on the first very step

1. Before flashing a new rom, use root explorer (with read/write set) to delete the file "batterystats.bin" stored in /data/system/.

I CANT FIND THE FILE !!! .. has it been deleted by mistake or wht ? .. im using the file manager to search for it on the sd card cnt find it ???

help !!!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IanTester:
That's because it's not on the SD card.

Do you know how to get a root prompt with the on-phone terminal or ADB? If you can, it's simply a matter of issuing:

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] rrohanjs:
no i dnt knw how to ? .. can u plz temme step by step ..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IanTester:
If you can get your file manager to that location (/data/system) the file will be there. Like I said, it's not on the SD card. That's mounted on /mnt/sdcard.

What file manager are you using? I'm using ES File Explorer. It starts in the SD card directory but can be switched to the root file system by tapping the SD card icon.

1) What do I need to do so I can restore everything exactly the way it was out of the box? Just in case I need to send it under warranty or sell it or something. I understand you can unroot. What about if I change the kernel or rom..?

2) Which rom is closest/similar to the stock mytouch 4g in terms of UI? I like sense because it has Swype and maybe it looks better but i'm comfortable with it. I also don't care too much about color themes and such cause I customize the crap out of it using launcher pro and background changer app.

3) Which kernel is best for more power, better battery life and also reliability? Does flashing a kernel mean it'll erase a rom? What about flashing a rom.. does it erase the current kernel?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kettlecorn:
Thanks this helps. I looked around and installed CM7 + Faux's Gingerbread kernel just to check it out. I like gingerbread better than Froyo but I miss sense.

Do you (or anyone else) have any recommendations on which Sense gingerbread Rom is the best? (reliability, power, battery life, etc.) Basically I love CM7 but the one thing that's missing is the contacts/dialer feature. The contacts do not sync with Facebook and most of my contacts are blank. When I had facebook for mytouch 4g, it would sync all my fb contacts into my address book, allow me to merge duplicates and have the newest Profile picture photos for all the contacts listed. The syncing on CM7 doesn't seem to be working. Any thoughts?

Also, I like that in Froyo (or was it just Sense) that when you click on a contact, a little menu action pop up shows "SMS", "CALL", "Facebook", etc. and it seemed like a more integrated platform. Maybe i'm just missing something like an app or a setting somewhere.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I'm with you about vanilla AOSP ROMs feeling like a lot is missing. Sense is so much better in so many ways to me...it's what Android should have been from the beginning. As far as Gingerbread/Sense ROMs, there is RoyalMint, but since we don't have a good kernel source yet, it's missing a lot of functionality and isn't totally stable. If you want Sense, I would heartily recommend the one in my sig, eViL 4G-HD. It's Froyo, but is fully functional and stable.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ESKIMOn00b:
You can still merge FB contacts with phone contacts on cm7.

With FB installed open a contact, edit, merge.

I find that most features from sense are in AOSP but there either not automatic, or not as easily accessable.

Flashing a ROM erases the kernal, well it over writes the existing kernal with the one included with the rom. Flashing a kernal does NOT erase the ROM and it is meant to be flashed ROM the kernal.

I preferred faux's kernels myself
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erakat1:
Yes, it is a little more time consuming but it works. With the stock MT4G ROM, all contacts were linked together automatically. I thought that was very cool. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nprussell:
Hi all,

I'm working on a Galaxy S Gingerbread ROM, and there's something I need help with. I've put out a lot of custom ROMs, and in fact, I work with Android for a living. There is, however, something I'm really struggling with.

I hope one of you guys can help me.

I'm looking to enable the WCDMA OR COMBI-BAND 850Mhz 3G. It has recently come to my attention that the phones support this frequency, but it is not enabled by default. Enabling it is a relatively simple process, but I am trying to figure out how to enable it by default in the build.

To enable it, take the following steps:

*#*#0011#*#*

If you get a summary, press MENU>Back

- Press 8 - PHONE CONTROL

- Press 7 - NETWORK CONTROL

- Press 2 - SELECTION

Then press COMBI, and enable the relevant band without the * in.

So...

All I am doing, is looking to enable this by DEFAULT in a build.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] criskelo:
Does not work that way

When the original 850mhz mobile and then put a European modem to do a reset.

After no more than 850MHz, 1900MHz only

When selecting 850mhz band active no more, is that the modem is not compatible

The best solution is that each person using 850mhz install the modem of your choice

Anyway if you encuantra any way to fix it

would be really useful

We all know that the release process goes through the carrier after the manufacturer is done with it. For all we know it could be ATT that is dragging its feet whereas Verizon is moving more quickly.

I, perhaps naively, think that Moto won't drop the ball on its flagship device.
[Android Software Development] jonalexgalaxy:
Hi all

I'm blown away by the sheer number of apps available, as well as the fact that so many of them are free. Big up developers.

I'm puzzled as to why contacts / dialer apps seem to be falling short. Am i just not looking hard enough?

I really, really want the swipe-left-to-message/right-to-call feature from the stock app. This reduces keystrokes by 3!

In fact, if the stock contacts app opened with an alphanumeric keyboard, no market dialer would be as good.
[G1 General] yingjai:
I have a folder for android stuff like fastboot and adb that I keep for fixing my phone. I keep the minimum files required for fastboot to work... adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, fastboot.exe and the 64bit usb drivers.

I used to be able to use fastboot even after formatting my computer (and reinstalling the drivers), but it's been a long time and when I tried to do the same again, it no longer works.

Windows says the driver is not compatible with the device. I download Android SDK Tools to download the usb drivers there. They install, but fastboot still doesn't detect the phone.

I tried following tutorials out there to get fastboot to work, but I tried on 2 HTC Dreams and they don't get detected. What am I missing?

Only thing I remember being different is that I'm using Windows 7 x64 SP1 now and before I was using plain Windows 7 x64.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
You need to use the usb driver removal tool and install the usb driver from SDK.
[G1 General] P4p3r1n0:
yes you've got my same trouble.

i solved with backtrack 3.. don't ask me why because i don't know.. i just have a try with bt3 because i use bring it with me on my pendrive (it can ever be useful ;) )
[G1 General] yingjai:
The old drivers I had were never installed. For some reason, Windows did not recognize a compatible driver. I did download a fresh set of drivers from SDK and windows did install them, but fastboot devices is not listing anything.

I see no reason why I can't use fastboot on Windows if it worked before. Perhaps if there is no other way, I'll try Linux distros.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
It sound like there is no compatible driver for Windows 7 x64 SP1. Check google to see may be they might have an updates.
[G1 General] yingjai:
So there is an actual difference between win7 and sp1 in regards to the drivers and not that I set it up wrong?
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
From my experience on working with Windows. Every version always different. As far as how much different, I can't tell.

If you had it working with W7 before SP1, then there is a change in driver that causing it not to work correctly. Do you required to upgrade to W7 SP1? Or is that your preference?
[G1 General] yingjai:
Well that's all I can think of. Just wanted to know if anyone else had problems with sp1. I think faastboot should work with my winxp vms.. gonna try that next time I try to use fastboot..

Hi

Ever since I started with Android I have heard about car and desk docks. Never had one, but I thought it was quite simple: a cradle with built in charger connection.

I then saw some "car home" apps which claimed to activate when in a car dock. So how does the phone know? What's in the dock?
[Defy Accessories] nepotu:
The dock contains a tiny magnet and the phone "reads" the polarity of this magnet. On this link you can see how to build your own media dock.

Hmm. My story is i'm using provider Indosat on my country. Use it in my office and it works fine. I can tether it easily to my laptop. Most of my colleague are using another provider Simpati, and recently my office bought a repeater to strengthen Simpati's signal. And now, i can still get signal for my indosat, but my internet is barely works at all. Any solution to overcome this?

My other solution is i change provider to Simpati, but somehow Simpati blocked the data plan. I can tether it using wifi but there'a no data flow rendering it useless. I can still use it on the phone though.

Is there a hack or anything to enable the data flow? Since my plan is already unlimited anyway.

Download and install this APK-> http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?e47aloxaujxo2o1

To calibrate, open your app drawer and you should see something like "Screen Calibration" or "Touch Calibration" and just do regular calibration from there.

[Atrix 4G General] bongd:

[Atrix 4G General] Divinedark:
Jesus... I didn't know that April 13th was the end of April... These months have sure gotten shorter.

I'm just spit-balling here, but when a company states they'll be releasing an OTA in April, that might mean they'll release it at some point in the month. Not just within the first two weeks.

You might be justified in using that statement the first week of March, but... Nevermind.
[Atrix 4G General] bee55:
Actually, the Atrix's irc channel is very active and devs are working on the bootloader (kholk even stated that he has a method to unlock/bypass it, but he's away until the 2nd of May, so he'll probably test/finish/whatever it when he returns).

I think that devs tend not to post their smaller ideas on the forums now, but rather discuss them on irc as the forums got quite messy with lots of off topic crap...
[Atrix 4G General] Divinedark:
That would be outstanding...
[Atrix 4G General] s1mpd1ddy:

i'm going to start transferring money into my paypal now so I can donate to these guys once the unlock comes out.
