Hi!

Today I'm proud to announce a new NFC app: V-Card2Nav.

This app allows you to touch a NFC Tag with a vCard on it and automatically launch Google Navigation with the address from the vCard as destination.

If you have a vCard with several address fields (like WORK or HOME) the app will ask you to pick one.

The latest version also supports GEO type URI Tags. If you have a NFC Tag with a geo: URI on it, the app will also launch Google Navigation with the latitude and longitude as destination. That’s cool for geocaching ;)

For easy testing and playing around with it, I have integrated the app into the contacts list. Here you are able to write a contact as a vCard on a NFC Tag.

Check the short demo on youtube:

youtube.com/watch?v=2jUyHQLWbZ8

You can find the app on the market here:

market.android.com/details?id=de.grundid.vcard2nav

Enjoy.

Wifi cracking? Lol.... packet injection needs patched wifi drivers that support it....if you are using the version of ubuntu that boots from windows mobile, it should be possible to patch the wifi driver and compile it for it..... but i dont think it would be possible with the linux versions that run inside android.....anyways, on the aircrack-ng website they have tutorials on how to compile patched wifi drivers for injection..... google it....

If youre asking this for wifi cracking, it would be much easidr just to use the pc and the linux distibition called backtrack....theres even a live cd for backtrack that requires no installation..... of course only if ur cracking ur own wifi for educational purposes....lmao
[HD2 Ubuntu Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and General] Sopalajo de Arrierez:
Mmmm... I think we first need to make the kernel detect USB ethernet devices (RJ45 or WiFi). We are talking about this in this other thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24163732&postcount=582

but, if we solve that problem, I think probably the injection matter could be faced in a very similar manner... or even be automatically solved.
[About XDA developers] Johev:
Hi everybody,

I was not sure where to post this so I will just put it in here.

This is a suggestion that I thought of a long time ago, but today I've decided to post it somewhere.

XDA is an excellent forum, which I visit on a daily basis. Even before we had the nice portal it was still fun to go and visit our devices and see if anything new had come out.

The thing that I unfortunately can't use XDA for very well, unless I open countless threads asking people for help, is when deciding if I should buy a phone.

Everytime I want to read a review, I need to go and get it somewhere else. The problem with other peoples reviews is that they never take into account custom ROM's and the community behind them, so if the phone comes with crappy software out of the box, they might negatively rate something that is actually very good.

Lately I have been following the SG2 forum, as that device has made me dream again :). Pretty, Powerful and another word starting with P that I can't think of, but when I want to see how good it is, or any review I either browse 100s of threads and try to understand what do people complain about, or I give up and go and search on the net for a review, which I still think does not take into account the potential of the device (example HD2, you will not find a review of it running android, hehe).

To summarize: I suggest that each forum dedicated to a phone could have a nice review in the sickies, done by a member and rated by the community.

And please I am aware of the wiki, but I still don't think it is enough, as it's mostly specs and other things, not actual usage comparison or review.

Let me know what you think.

Good day to you all :D
[About XDA developers] the_scotsman:
This is an interesting point...I know of a few other forums that have a dedicated review forum or review threads.

I'll pop it in the "suggestion box" ;)
[About XDA developers] EsOne:
I'm still somewhat of a newbie to xda, but the idea sounds great. I usually jump around to 5 or six sites looking for reliable reviews.

Would be nice to have member reviews from multiple angles of usability.
[About XDA developers] Johev:
Well I'm glad that you've liked it. I am looking forward to see future development and hopefully I will not have to use other review sites in the future :).

Regards to all.
[About XDA developers] ziko360:
good idea :)
[About XDA developers] arbrad:
That's great, I think Xda with many ppls can send out the information of mobile products.
[About XDA developers] Johev:
Hi everybody, first I want to thank the admin orb3000 for moving the thread, I searched for the right place for the post, but no suggestion folder for the forum, that is why I have posted in in general.

And now on topic, we need to start reviewing our phones so they have something to sticky.

So good luck to you all, and I am looking forward to the results.
[About XDA developers] TheRomMistress:
With all the threads that pop up asking "should I get this", I had thought about doing the same thing but never acted on it....maybe its time that I did :)

Great suggestion, definitely not "flame worthy" ;)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emcp422:
well i have been running it for a while now, and i dont know why you installed gapps after, i havent needed it, its all there in the rom, do a fresh install, if you are restoring apps dont restore the data, simply restore the apps, if you need any of the regular apps that are not preinstaled with the rom simply go to vaelpak setting, flashable mods, then apps, and you will find what you need there, and no the hotspot its free, hope it helps if not pm me, and ill ghuide you thru, been running it for a while now and havent had any trouble and i do mess with it a lot.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simoro1:
I recently attempted to root my desire with unrevoked. It seemed to go well and i attempted to flash a custom rom. I made a nandroid back up too. However, now the device is stuck in boot loop and i can't flash another rom or restore from nandroid backup. I've tried pushing roms from fastboot, running the telstra RUU and nothi g has worked. The closest i have got to it working is on the bootloader, it automatically detects that i have Pb99DIAG.zip and tries to install that but says it cannot verify signature.

I have a pvt4 desire with hboot version 0.93.0001 if that is any help

I apologise if this has been posted before but i have been tring to get this fixed for ages :) Any help will be appreciated.

Rooting and S-OFF-ing are two completely different things. You got confused.

You have to do them both in order to install certain ROMs.

ATT usually has some awesome deals on the "refurbed cosmetic blemish" phones.

Anyone have experience in buying these cosmetic blemish phones?

How bad are they?

[Milestone XT720 General] Oakham:
Why won't my XT720 start up?

When it is connected to my charger, the four action keys light up. Despite leaving it to charge overnight, it appears that the battery isn't charging. The phone won't start while it is charging, neither when connected to the mains or to my car power supply.

I bought a new battery without any improvement.

When I access the bootloader screen it says there is too little power in the battery to program the phone.

The phone is not recognised by my computer when connected.

The phone is running Froyo 2.2. with Dexter rom.

I would be very grateful for any suggestions......apart from binning the phone!

Thanks!
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
I think the phone likes to selfboot with too little charge. See if you can shut it down cleanly so it won't autoboot. It's annoying but you may have to watch it very carefully to catch it when it's trying to boot because it will drain itself back to death very quickly.
[Milestone XT720 General] ecwchan:
Hi Oakham, do you have any update to your case? I have the same problem now.

Yesterday, I noticed the battery bar went down to orange region (about 30%?). I plugged it to the wall for about an hour (the charging symbol showed up). Later I found out that the battery bar did not move (still stuck at orange region). Later the night, I tried to charge again (the bar was red at about 15% or less). The charging symbol showed up. Later I checked, the battery bar did not improve but declined. The phone eventually went out of battery and turned itself off.

I tried to continue to charge using both the wall outlet and PC USB. No luck. I could not even power up the phone now. Did you manage to resolve your case? Anyone got the same problem and found the solution?

I thought about buying a new battery to try, but then I saw your post, so I hesitated.

Thanks.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
I've had this problem. Watching the phone closely while charging and pulling the battery whenever it starts to boot works. After about the fourth time doing this I got a battery charger from amazon for ~$5 because it's gently loving annoying.
[Milestone XT720 General] ecwchan:
Thanks for your advice.

So when you first bumped into this problem, how did you get it back to boot up?

I followed your advice to watch it while it's charging. When I saw the motorola logo showed up, I pulled the battery. Then I plugged it back and let it charged for some more time. Then I tried to power up the phone. The motorola logo came on and then the big battery symbol came on saying it's 100% full (but i knew it's not). Later, those 4 soft touch button lid on. This cycle repeated. And I'm clueless.

Please let me know the steps you took to recover your phone.

Thanks.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Once you get into the system use 'power off' from the menu. It won't autoboot then and you can leave it in the wall overnight. I think. A voodoo doll may work, too. It can be really frustrating, but I've been able to get out of it every time so far. Like I said, I got sick of this game and found a battery charger for pretty cheap.
[Milestone XT720 General] hellmonger:
Try deleting batterystats.bin and doing what M said.. can you get to open recovery and charge from there?
[Milestone XT720 General] Oakham:
I also had the 'M' logo screen, stuck on-screen when the charger was connected. There is a post which suggests, for this, 'Pull battery.2) Insert battery and hit power button;3) As soon as you hit the power button, hold the volume up button down until the unboxing logo comes up.'

As my phone is still under warranty, I sent it back to see if there is a physical problem. I'll try the above suggested solution when my phone comes back from 'Motorola', whether or not it is repaired by them! I've also bought a battery charger for the phone's BP6X battery from e-Bay (£9.50, including another battery.)At least I will then know that a battery is fully charged before I try fixes.

Thanks for the other posts/replies!
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
In my experience OR drains faster than it can charge.
[Milestone XT720 General] ravenxda:
Damn!

I had about the same. Battery got drained down from 80% to 5%. Then the screen for "please plug in for charging" appeared. Some moments later the phone went dark and now I can't get it to work again. It doesn't react on the power button. Even when plugged in the charging-symbol doesn't appear. I can't turn it on. Sucks!

Any ideas? :mad:
[Milestone XT720 General] Oakham:
My phone has been repaired by Motorola, under warranty, and returned after four days. Accompanying report is brief: 'Software update and screening'. Seems to be working fine.......just like a brand new phone!

-J_rodds mods haven't been implemented on v1.8 (back in for v1.9)

-We all know that clockworkmod is the hard work of Koush and I take no credit for it. If you have any problems with this, please do not bother koush. please post here or pm me

*please read

a quick note about the buttons for recovery. "most" recoveries will use the volume rocker to move up and down and the home button to select. this recovery not only uses the volume rocker to move up and down but also the soft menu and home button respectively. the power button will select and the back soft key will go back.

by using using the soft menu, you can rapidly scroll down through all your files to the desired one...it also can be done with the volume rocker, but it takes a little longer...

*recovery keys

scroll up ↑ = volume+ or home

scroll down ↓ = volume- or menu

select ✓ = power

back ☇ = back (or highlight "++++go back++++")

-installation

2 different ways...

1st way: when no access to odin (or just plain sick of it) go to the market and get DarkyROM2 Tool

then I make a folder called zimage and then a subfolder with the kernel version

-extract the zimage from the .tar and place it in the "version folder"

-then flash/install file from SDCARD

2nd way:

-install as you would a rom through odin (using pda)

-put the phone in download mode by pressing (volume- & home & power), then volume+ to confirm

-doesn't wipe or no need to..

once you install the kernel, to get root...

-download the superuser attachment

-place superuser zip on your sd card

-power off phone

-then press and hold (volume+ & home & power)...keep holding until clockwork recovery pops up (takes 2 or 3 cycles)

-then flash su zip from sd

-also flash liblights from recovery for bln

-to remove yellow triangle

1st way;

-after you odin in a "jame bond" kernel (you will now have root)

-reboot, then back to download mode and install the stock kernel with odin.

-then reflash the "jame bond" kernel with DarkyROM2 Tool

2nd way;

-search galaxy jig on ebay (buy..wait for ups)

-then once you "run the jig" the triangle will be gone

-flash all future kernels using the Darky app and it won't show again;)

*note latest su and liblights are under downloads in first post
