The nexus one has many many screen issues, im sure alot of phones are better than the keyboard on it.. haha. and with the inspire i imagin it would be good. you should try WP7 keyboard, it even makes IPhones look bad. Microsoft put alot of work into it. WP7 is one of the fastest OS, maybe THE fastest and most responsive. because of the graphics acceleration, and updated OpenGL. Which Google hasn't update on android, thats why even dual core phones even have lag. I do miss android though, all the dev support and features are great. and i like motoblur cause its very minimalistic/simple. like wp7. Yeah, it seems as everyone says the same problem with the lock screen lag, and it has keyboard lag acording to some people. i dont really mind though, and also some people just swipe homescreens and open stuff super fast, etc to see how fast it is and if it lags, and if it does they say the phone is laggy. but in long run day to day use im sure that it would be different.

I dont have enough money to just buy one. I am going to trade my HD7 plus $50-$70 for it. I have T-Mobile so i will have to unlock it. in other works i wont be able to take it back cause i dont have a AT&T account. I would get the LG GX2 but the LCD Bleeding issue is a no for me, and the less amount of RAM. I do love the build quality though and camera. every dual core phone coming out has a issue. HTC Sensation - CRAP internal storage. LG Optimus 2x Backlight bleeding issue. Motorola Atrix - lag problems, locked bootloader, 5mp camera. Samsung Galaxy S2 - Its a Samsung phone.. what phone have they made without a problem? It has heat issues (of course like all the galaxy S phones) Dead pixel problem, etc.. I will stay away from a phone with screen issues because i had the Mytouch 4G and that had enough lol.
[Atrix 4G General] stratax:
Okay so I just traded phones and I do not regret it. Even with motoblur. Android keyboard is alittle hard to use though lol

I'm not sure how to setup clear.fi more than what it is now. My PC is sharing media files and clear.fi doesn't display them. Any thoughts on an app that will show all shared media and play it nice?
[Acer Iconia A500] Shivan149:
clear.fi uses DLNA.

So if you enable DLNA on your Win7, you'll see photos somehow.

But you first have to enable access for your A500.

See here:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/e7/archive/2009/05/12/media-streaming-with-windows-7.aspx

But I'm not yet satisfied with this, because currently I didn't manage to have the same view on my A500 like on my desktop. It seems clear.fi shows the photos ordered by "tag" not by foldername.

[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Hey Guys,

OK, before I go further, I got to admit, I messed up.

I found this gtalk file (attached) and tried to install it with the following code via adb:

adb remount

adb shell mv /system/app/Talk.apk /system/app/Talk.apk1

adb uninstall com.google.android.talk

adb push libtalk_jni.so /system/lib/

adb push Talk2.apk /system/app

It got copied, but it doesn't show up in the menu or listed apps. Now I've lost (though not technically) the old Gtalk and the new one ain't working either.

Could someone help me out please?

Even if not to get the new one working, I'd be happy if I could get the old one back.

Cheers,

Maddy
[Xperia Arc General] gourdouli:
adb shell mv /system/app/Talk.apk1 /system/app/Talk.apk

adb install com.google.android.talk
[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Thanks mate...I just did that and got back the old Gtalk app. Wondering if there is no way to install the new Gtalk app 2.3.4, the one that has Video and Voice chat facility...

Cheers
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
try this http://android.modaco.com/content/software/339390/r1-12-may-google-video-talk-installer/ mate.
[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Thanks a bunch Nimche, it worked. YOU ROCK!!! Really appreciate the help.

Cheers,

[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Nimche: So it got installed properly and i could see the icons for video and voice chat...however, every time i try to start a voice chat, i could hear the other person but the person on the other end cannot hear me...and yes, the phone is not muted while in conversation...

Do you reckon it could be because of the file that may have been made for another device?

I suppose it is not enabling the voice channel circuit..

Any thoughts?
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
I saw people reported that it works but I will try it as soon as I have time and report back.

[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
I think it could be because if this file that I pushed earlier libtalk_jni.so.

Could anyone share this file with me please? Its in /system/lib folder...
[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Ok, so i've done all that was mentioned in the video...now to find someone online and come back with results if it worked or not...
[Xperia Arc General] maddesire:
Still not working...same problem...

the i can hear the caller, but the person on the other end cannot hear me at all...

PLS HELP!!!!:(
[XPERIA X10 General] Undying:
Hi,

I want to buy a Xperia X10 Phone and use it as a WLAN AP for several devices (Notebook, WP7 device, ...)

Is this possible with Andorid 2.1

AFAIK there is no 2.2 or later out for Xperia X10.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 General] realunited123:
If your device support adhoc then yes.you can use barnacle app from market. If not then you have to wait till the 2.3 updare rolls out.
[XPERIA X10 General] peludino:
Barnacle is a option to share u connection with Wifi or u can share connection using PDANET app, that is on market too. With this app u share your connection trough usb or bluetooth, I use it everyday :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellygoos:
Dear community,

today as a first step I have successfully rooted my Phone (Froyo 2.2.1) with CF-Root Kernel and Odin, yay! :D Thanks to all the Developers, Guides and Refs on this page!!

In order to fix my ongoing battery issues,next thing I want to try is to flash a new ROM; I think for stability and for practice the latest Froyo Build JS8! I have downloaded Titanium Backup and have successfully backed up all my system and user apps and settings.

Now when I flash the new ROM, the phone will be wiped, or at least the Wipe-method is recommended (hard-reset AFTER the flashing?).

Can I restore at least some settings and apps with my Titanium Backup Files (I read restoring system apps/settings is not recommended)?

How would I do that (where does Titanium save the backup files?)

How do you guys usually perform the steps to a new ROM without losing all system settings, apps, app-settings etc...?

Thanks for all recommendations!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotsync100:
I would recomend you, restore user apps only. It will restore your apps and their settings. You could do it in batch mode.

Also is recomended to copy your TitaniumBackup folder to PC

Last but not least, do not forget copy your EFS folder too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimiJam:
1) Get titanium backup PRO.

2) Batch backup your whole system (while you're at it, create a schedule so your phone automatically gets backed up at least once/week). The files will go on your sd card in a TitaniumBackup folder (actually you can specify where they go).

3) Go and nuke your phone with whatever.

4) Re-install Titanium backup, then batch restore your USER apps & settings. Leave the system settings alone for now.

5) Okay for system settings, be a bit more selective:

6) Go to Backup/Restore tab, select menu, then filters, then apply a Filter by Type: System.

7) Anything in GREEN is system settings (red=system applications).

8) I typically restore the following: Contacts/Call-logs; SMS/MMS/APN; Bookmarks; SMS/MMS Preferences; Wifi Access Points; Calendar Storage (think that includes your alarm clock settings).

Note that you may need to reboot before you see the restore take effect - e.g. you can't see your restored sms till after reboot.

Also it's safest to grab a copy of your titanium backup folder and put it on your computer. Lookup how to get a copy of your /efs too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellygoos:
Thanks for the swift answers and useful guides! Will buy the Titanium Pro for sure.

In the Pro Version it says it can convert System Apps into User Apps and vice versa. Couldn't I just convert all the System Apps into User Apps and then restore everything, once on new ROM?

About the freezing feature of the Pro Version: Does it freeze complete Apps, or can you tell them to freeze specific tasks? I noticed that for example some Google Maps or Latitude tasks run in the background (and start again by themselves if i close them manually) and I would like them to get out of the phone memory while I don't have the program running. Yet I want the apps to function properly once I need them.

P.S.: Before I proceed flashing a new ROM I will also look into backing up my /efs folder so thanks for pointing me at this!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellygoos:
Okay, I figured out how to backup the /efs folder via ADB shell.

Questions remain though concerning Titanium Backup Pro. Can someone that uss Titanium Pro help me with these questions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon:
You could convert it technically. But generally it's not advised as it may mess up settings or so on a different ROM. I backed up my system stuff but I doubt I'll restore it on any ROM, the hassle isn't worth it if any issue shows up and you have to check everything out to fix it. Maybe some individual system thingies can be restored safely but keep in mind lots of system stuff changes on each ROM and could be incompatible.

Just like others did here, I also recommend the PRO version as you have to click every single restoration on a batch restoration otherwise (and it's probably slower anyway).

Freezing means just that, it freezes the app. It "deactivates it", so it's not there/usable but it's not uninstalled. Can't think of a scenario right now where this would be useful except for testing purposes, maybe if an app causes an issue and you want it to be gone temporarily or so.

If you don't want an app to continue running simply use the task manager to kill it which comes along with the SGS (Samsung app afaik, usually pre installed).

Btw Titanium has a nice wiki website which is really helpful but can't link it as a new user here. Google Titanium Backup wiki and the first link should be the correct one. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Altimas:
Correct me if I'm wrong but if you do a app+data restore the app doesnt show up in the market under installed which means that any updates to the app wont get rolled out.

What I did was install each of my apps from the market then did only a data restore. This worked for most of my apps BUT last night I noticed a few of my apps missing, in fact launching my angry birds from simi folder caused a FC. BUT I know that angry birds was working earlier in the day.

So I simply went back to the market and reinstalled and all seems well again.

So now I'm wondering what is the best method to restore, my method or maybe do a app+data restore then go to the market and install the app again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon:
Afaik, normally Titanium also backs up the links for the markets so the entries won't get lost and should be restored as well. There was an issue mentioned which can happen if that data gets corrupted. The Titanium wiki lists it.

Generally, installing the app from the market and then restoring it should work just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Hey Guys!

Well I seen a thread in the general section talking about the posssibility of Android 3.0 or Honeycomb for Hero. I decided to have a go at porting a Magic HC ROM and so here it is. It works okay, can be sluggish at times but it's really only a proof of concept but if there's enough interest I'll consider improving it to try and get everything working. This ROM is really a joint effort between me and Ybinnenweg, he's helped me develop every rom i've ever built so far so we may as well stick together :D.

Thanks to:

yohshua for the original rom.

Ybinnenweg for his advice and support

Elelinux for the update-script :)

Okay down to business..

Whats working?

- Led's

- Auto-Rotate ( it rotates after using camera but doesn't rotate back :L )

- Full Honeycomb UI

- Auto-Brightness

- SD Card mount?

- Key Lights

- Not sure what else.. find out!

Whats not working?

- Sound

- SMS

- Calls

- Camera

- USB Storage

- Bluetooth

- Wifi

Thanks to Ybinnenweg for screens :D

Superuser Fix

HeroGetsHoney v0.1

P.S: I know it says welcome to Elelinux-speedmachine, that's only because i used his updater-script. It'll be fixed in the next build ;)

OMG! Great news!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
I can't post screens atm, as I use my phone for work and can't use a ROM that has limited functionality for a while, I'll try get something up later. The speed is okay, it's not great but it's using fly-kernel12a, not tried using LV with it so i'm not sure if that will improve the speed. Test it out for me, any feedback is much appreciated :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iPasta:
Nice to see you working on this but you've a lot of work to do ;) good luck with it.

Hope this one is easier to port than MIUI ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Thanks, at least I have sources for this one :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djdavis:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djdavis:
I'm using RA 1.6.2a
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Lol, didn't thought it was possible to port because Google hadn't released the code :P I am willing to try as soon it gets a bit more usable :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
As the dev is AFK :P

Here are the screens that I've taken, they will be on the OP

okay, seems to be problems with amonRA, try using clockwork?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krishna.duvvuri:
very cool! I cant believe our Hero's can do this, I guess they are living up to their names! also you guys are my heroes!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] swatsbiz:
I'm sure that Elelinux had Honeycomb running on the Hero shortly after it was released by Google ... ?

It booted was as good as it got though ⊙_⊙
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Thats true, don't think he ever posted on here though. I think it was more out of interest that he done it rather than a official ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Just curious, will calling and sending text messages ever be fixed?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pkn3000:
Look there is no market seeing the screenshot
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Probably, I'm having a look at that just now actually, the magic rom has sms working so we should be able to get that fixed aswell :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
it's just been released, have patience :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
It's because there is no wifi, so no worth adding a market ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Cool, looking forward to run this on my phone when it gets a bit usable :)

(sorry, I really need to be able to get called)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
No worries, I'm hoping to have that fixed in the next few days, I'm also thinking of changing to your .35 kernel but I'll see how the speed is with fly-kernel once oc'ing works with the ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I'll try this one out once it gets call and sms.

But this is really great news, I certainly didn't expect this.

Btw, HoneyHero would sound better than HeroGetsHoney :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] taffypride:
absolutely awesome for someone to actually try a HoneyComb port to the Hero! Hopefully with the amazing community we have here, we should be able to crack this and get a fully working ROM....

Gonna bookmark and keep checking back on this piece of news :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
dude - I've been wanting to try this on the hero since I saw it ported to only slightly more powerful chinese tablets! I thought (and could still be right) that the memory on the hero would be too small to make this OS of any use to us. kinda like gb on the hero using too much memory to be ideal for extensive multitasking.

but we'll see - honeycomb has a wicked UI and is apparently quite different under the surface too - you tell me though LoL, haven't used it yet. :-)

calls and etiehr wifi or data = I'll flash it for a bit of fun :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krishna.duvvuri:
booting now and have to say its a sikk boot screen!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] I7V:
thanks dude
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
If you have used the ROM, could you please post any bugs you come across, it would help me a lot. Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krishna.duvvuri:
I've only played with it for about 10 mins but I noticed that the home and menu buttons dont work and the default home app is not sized properly, its too big. Also when you press anything a big red box outlines the screen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
can you install any apps on this thing? my wife's hero is dead - headphone jack is permanently stuck partway between headphones and no-headphones mode, so I'm thinking if I can actually install apps (using apks, or if not apks then pushing them through adb or whtaever it's called) then it could be a fun thing to flash on her phone just to mess around with.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
It should be possible to push apps through adb.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Yeah, the res is still an issue, the buttons worked okay for me they just weren't as quick or responsive as they are in other ROM's, it is still an sdk ROM so there are still quite a lot of issues so please be patient.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
How did your hero suddenly become a magic : -o looking at your signatures : p

ha, exams. who needs them. you'll just end up working for a living and nobody really wants to work for a living ;-)

skip the exams and hack android - it'll get your career way further.

(just kidding - but every minute you do have available to work on this rom is much appreciated - I have a lot of respect for anyone who takes time out of their lives to do this stuff, and through exams it must be really challenging).

hang in there!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Haha, I wish I could but you know what's it like these days, no qualifications = no job :(.

Thanks for your support though, its nice to see someone that notices we don't hack android for living, its a hobby and sometimes real life gets in the way of our hobby ;). I have an exam on tuesday so no releases before then but hopefully during the week I'll release a lil something, whether its this or my port from the Salsa with its own custom kernel :)

Stay tuned!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
kernel looks doubtful though :(

Thanks :D , If it doesn't work, could you post me a logcat?

couldn't get to the point of logcat - I couldnt' even flash the fix (cwmod recovery - rom flashed fine).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:

Thanks for the support, if you still have problems with su after that fix please PM me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Seelbreaker:
