[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] webbiworm:
Hi guys, i dont know where to post this but here goes!!!!

Before the arrival of the Nand version of the android, there were many SD versions of the android that had a glitch with the camera focus, which the dev teams have ironed out. The problem was that when the camera was focused on a close object (video rec) and then the record was started, the camera will not auto adjust to other object but stay fixed on the focus point it was when you started. This was fixed with the button feature that was within the menus (auto focus on/off).

This may of been a problem for most users but was an excellent feature for the Mobile Directors (my university film crew). We decided that we will do all of our university film projects using my fantastic HD2 and this glitch feature played a vital role. I have been meaning to post our work here for a long time but never had the chance as it is our final majors. But i have uploaded 1 of the first video's we made long time ago using that glitch for the builds.

Now what i need help with is if those DEV SUPER TEAMS can look into this feature again and put it into the new builds so that we can carry on making amazing films with our HD2 :D if it is possible. The problem is that i cant find the old build i had and the new builds don't have this feature.

Before you say anything please look at the 1 min vid which we created with the focus problem (by focusing on foreground the background is blurred) that i am talking about and share your thoughts on the matter. (i will upload some more soon).

http://vimeo.com/22366901?ab

Filmed in black and white - please note the blurred focus scenes that were done using the glitch. FILMED ONLY USING HTC HD2 with very basic editing.

So my x10 suddenly stops charging.

when i look at the sleep screen on the left it shows that my battery is charging while its not connected to anything.

does this means that its the batteries fault?

+ My usb port Doesn't connects to the PC but it still charges. this was before the random charging happens
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlpereira1987:
Probably just a glitch. Try reflashing stock OS and pray it isnt a hardware problem :P

Today i find the Desktop SMS Manger for Android Phone and like to share it with you. Many peoples like me addict to sms text messaging but some time we can't quickly reply the message due to one or another reason.

But its time to no more worries Desktop SMS Manager is the ultimate solution for me and hope its also works for you.

By using Desktop SMS Manger we can send text messaging from your computer by connecting your Android Phone via USB data cable.

For more details and brief guide of how to download/install Desktop SMS Manger on your Computer head over to this link.

Thanks if you have any question or need help at any point PM me or ask here.

sorry for poor English :(
[Android Software Development] rwxer:
I would advise to try http://www.bloove.com instead, no download is required.

PS

Yes, I understand that first post and my reply are complete offtopic, sorry :)
[Android Software Development] Ehsan Mahmood:
It needs internet connection to active on your phone. However, Desktop SMS Manger doesn't need internet connection to active or use. You just need SDK tool kit on your PC.

I will try it and than come back to share which one is good. Thanks
[Android Software Development] joey3002:
any other options out there for this?
[Android Software Development] gab1to:
Yup, it's called Texty but it´s in private beta.

I got an invite recently and this thing is awesome. You should google it.
[Android Software Development] tommy p:
Ive always used SMS Control Center. Connect either wifi or bluetooth, the computer software is really simple, and its free.
[Android Software Development] Ehsan Mahmood:
SMS Control Center is not available there. I think SMS Desktop Manager is the best option for you :)

[Android Software Development] KoolPal:
Hi,

I am trying to use this app.

I am stuck at this point:

Once download complete run “MainGUI.jar” application and click “preference”. Browse to the path of your downloaded and unzipped SDK Install package. You need to select “adb.exe” file like this “/androidtools-skd-windows/tools/adb.exe”.Checkout the below screenshot.

How do you 'run' “MainGUI.jar” application?????

Please advise.

Thanks.
[Android Software Development] TRusselo:
jars are for windows mobile.

the posts above are dumb

try texdro - http://www.crackedsun.com/texdro/

or SMS Control Center http://www.smscontrolcenter.com/

i use texdro desktop PRO

there is also SMS2droid out there
[Android Software Development] Ehsan Mahmood:
Yeah, i know jar files for windows and the above jar file is also windows app that runs on your PC and integrate SMS app to your PC. So that you can send and receive mobile sms from PC.

Thanks

Hi !

I know FroydVillain is based on CyanogenMod.

What differences ? Is this better ? More or less stable ? More or less fast ?..

I'd like some users experience to do my choice :)
[Defy Android Development] pomah:
sound like a good idea, I hope devs will support this.
[Defy Android Development] iaio72:

thank's a lot, i put your apk in my last rom! :D
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
Awesome. I'll try to enhance asap the stats that are shown.

Next week I'll be on holidays, so I will probably not be able to do much, but when I come back I'll continue.
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
I believe it's a win-win for users and devs, the more people collaborate, the more data get collected, the better get the stats.
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:

Wow only a few hours after I cooked this baby in to thunderstickGB website down. That sucks, oh well...

Thanks for all the work on this. definitely worth it.
[Defy Android Development] johanlh:
is this app open source? can anyone see the source code? I like the idea, I am not a dev but as a user, I would allow the app to run in order to participate in the stats (I already did it when I used CM7), however, someone could think is too dangerous to have an app like that running in every custom ROM. But if everyone can check the source code, it would be more transparent.

Hope don't take for bad my comment.
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
YEah, sorry about the downtime. It definitely took long time. Yet it wasn't my fault. I'm relying on a free hosting platform. They perform quite great anyway (especiallly when you remember it's free).

RomStats site is now up again.

Regarding your stats, don't fear, you will not loose the count of your installs because of the downtime. Next time the device will chackin it will appear :-D.

I am thinking ofputting this'll in my next Rom.

is there anyway to impliment bug crashes/reports.

or a page where we can see our own rom stats like country my users are in?

It only currently shows how many users.

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
A quick bump, just to say that RomStats have hit the 25k Unique devices mark!

Interface has been enhanced, with possibility to filters data simply by clicking on the charts. :)
[Defy Android Development] dizgustipated:
For a developer trying to see these stats,

It shows, when it even works, very little.

anyway to improve this?

I have never been able to view my rom stats.

it always looks like the pics below.

I'm sorry to say, but if i can't view them, why use this app?

Yes, build.prop is correct.

Am I missing something obvious?
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
The problem is I'm using Google Chart Tools, which are not yet compatible with Mobile device... which is weird coming from Google.

So, unfortunately, you need to go from a computer, but it works, and it's now much faster than before! I optimized a bit the DB to get faster response to queries also.

Is there any way I can get a copy of my last stats? (Before the project went dead)

At anyrate, thank you for your wonderful creation.
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
Unfortunately I don't have a copy of the database, nor the php files. The webhoster simply deleted my account, saying I violated the ToS. No explanation, no warning, nothing. I don't even know which sticker of the ToS I actually could have violated... That sucks.

[General Questions and Answers] Bullehr:
Hello there!

Currently, I'm in possession of a Motorola Milestone. Great phone, but the slightly outdated RAM, crappy update support and locked bootloader made me crave for a new phone. With all the new stuff coming out this year, I'm not entirely sure of my decision. Because of the great hardware specs (dualcore processor, 1GB RAM etc.) the Galaxy S2 I9100 pulled my interest. But I'm not entirely sure if a non-TouchWIZ UI custom ROM can be installed, and if not, I'm wondering wether the Touchwiz provides a android-worthy experience. Any thoughts on this?

The most important thing is that my new smartphone will stay relevant for a good while. With my Milestone (which I bought way too late anyway) I couldn't run games like Dungeon Defenders, which has been released a few months after buying this phone.

Any advice from the experts would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: A Tegra 2 processor seems attractive, is this processor worthwhile?
[General Questions and Answers] reflexEagle:
Wait for the HTC Sensation :P

Dual core CPU @ 1.2 GHz,Tegra 2 procesor,1080p recording,1GB of RAM,4.3" screen and a resolution "Retina" like,its actually a qHD LCD screen

I was interested in the HTC Pyramid/Sensation as well indeed, but heard negative rumors about the processor not catching up with other phones or something?

Edit: Also found out Sensation has 768MB of RAM, not that it's a huge difference or anything ;p
[General Questions and Answers] zenida:
Well Sensation is a very good device but also HTC Evo 3D is pretty good :) if you like the 3D expirience without glasses
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
The Sensation won't have the Tegra. HTC is using the dual core Qualcomm CPU listed a 1.2GHz.

This is taken from Phonearena.com:

"HTC Sensation comes with a fresh serving of Android 2.3 Gingerbread, but it's all about the HTC Sense UI version 3.0 with a touch of refinement and functionality straight from the lock screen. You can choose between a number of lock screen options such as weather updates, quick access to apps and a handful of clock widgets. A 1.2GHz Qualcomm dual-core chipset supports the nice 3D-like transitions in the menu, all carrying resemblance to the ones on the HTC Flyer tablet. The phone is the first with a contoured glass 4.3-inch display meaning that your Super LCD screen is set back slightly to avoid scratches. The resolution is qHD (540x960) with an aspect ratio of 16:9. On the back you have an 8MP camera with dual-LED flash with “instant capture,” meaning little to no lag between pictures. The camera is also capable of recording video at 30fps in full HD (1080p) resolution."
[General Questions and Answers] Censura_Umbra:
I personally suggest the SGS2 for you, the new touchwiz seems to bring all of our favorite launcher features and some interesting widgets. It looks like a nice phone, (button seems lame tho) I say you can't go wrong with anything HTC, Samsung is pretty good hardware, software is lacking though, but that's what our lovely DEVS are for. And stay away from moto, they are just....They did horrible things to the xoom...horrible things. It could have been sooo much more... Anywayyy..

Hope this helps
[General Questions and Answers] Bullehr:
This surely helps, thanks for the advice! Although I'm even more unsure of my choice, because of the new phones you guys suggested

Evo 3D comes out in Europe as well, which is great, just not sure of the battery life with 3D effect? and will it effect performance of the phone itself?

Also thanks moderator for moving my thread to the correct subforum.
[General Questions and Answers] michael_crimson:
I'm very skeptical about all this 3d hype. 3d screens seems to utilize the same technology that is behind 3DS, which causes nausea, headaches and some people are just unable to see it.

If i was considering buying a new android phone, i'd come up with a budget i'd like to spend and selected the phone that i find visually most attractive. Since they most likely to be priced competitevely, you can't make a too much of an error this way, and dual core 1.2 GHz processors will surely be an overkill for most applications except most advanced 3d games in closest 6-12 months IMO.
[EVO 4G General] sirmx:
UPDATE: HTC made a clarification on their twitter acct. See this post for the txt, or go visit The Twitter Post -- thanks Bioxoxide for the heads up.

This shouldn't be shocking to anyone....... but:

From Engadget (link: http://engt.co/eX1niG )

"Unfortunate news for anyone who saw HTC's Sense 3.0 UI and started dreaming about seeing it on their Desire HD, Incredible S or any other handset that doesn't ship with it preloaded. HTC has said that because of the hardware requirements of the fancier new Android skin, only the dual-core Sensation 4G and EVO 3D smartphones and the 1.5GHz Flyer tablet will be benefiting from it for now."

Guess we will continue to have to rely on our Devs until they all jump ship like on the HeroC. :cool:

I can understand why they're doing this. Even though the Evo might be able to run it, if its laggy, casual users will be complaining like crazy. Then they'll run into a situation like Apple did when they stripped features for the iPhone 3g, but it was still almost unusable.

[EVO 4G General] stimpyshaun:
I see this as bad this just means that the new sense is probly big bulky and poorly coded or they are lying and its not hardwear and they just want sense 3.0 to be a feature of newer devices to make them more appealing... I saw nothing in any video preview that looked like it needed a dual core... and I see no reason why adreno 200 wouldn't handle the 3d carousel thing

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fo0you:
So basically I want to put DSP manager on a non-CM ROM (OMGB 1.1.1 to be exact). From what I can tell, installing the DSP manager .APK will not do anything as it requires a modified libflinger.so file. My question is, could I grab the lib file from a CM ROM (a GB ROM of course), and push it to my phone. The next step would most likely be to install the DSP manager .APK.

Any thoughts on the probability of success/anything I might be missing?

Hi

Just wondering if anyone here is planning on unrooting with this app to get the OTA gingerbread stock updates when available then rooting again? I used SuperOneClick btw.

Will this work method work or is it best to backup the phone then do a factory wipe, apply the OTA update then re-root and restore settings/apps? Wiping does seem a little excessive.

Loving my new phone :)

[LG Optimus 2x] Fulwood Sedge:
Hi,

Id also like to know the answer to this - so bump.

Can superoneclick be used to unroot - if not what is the easiest way to do so. Or is the only option to factory reset the phone?

Many thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] rottenpenguin:
I rooted my phone and upgraded from V10d to V10e. I loosed the root after the upgrade, but applications I freezed remained so :)

While I didn't tried it, SuperOneClick has the functionality of unrooting your phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
SuperOneClick can unroot, but it's easy to DIY, just remove /system/app/Superuser.apk and /system/bin/su

Try uninstalling the Resco Photo Manager 7.1 and then rebooting your HD2 and see if that fixes it if so that app is causing the issue.

Hi All.

I have been flashing roms for some time, but a noobie for posting to the forums (need to increase my post count so I can properly use the most applicable forums for my rom).

Anyway, one widget I use often is the news and weather widget (4x1), but I find that it isn't in all the roms, including my current one :(.

I was thinking to copy the widget across from a stock rom, but am not sure what file/files are required.

Does anyone have any hints?

Thanks.

That is indeed the widget that I am after. It is in most roms, but my current favourite sense rom is iNsertCoinHD DATA++ v03, and this is where I am really missing it. I have now loaded redux just to play with it, but expect to go back to my favourite again.

I periodically switch between HD roms and AOSP based ones - aiming to find acceptable replacements for all the good HTC apps/widgets in preparation for next upgrade that may not be HTC device.
