Modems

Modems are all posted in the first sticky of the Captivate Android Development sub-forum. I am on 2.2 stock ROM with speedmod-kernel-i897-k13e-500hz-CWM kernel and using cwm2_ugjl2 modem which works brilliantly in central Florida. 12 and a half hours on and 69% of battery still left (with Juicedefender).

Edit: oops just noticed JL1 isn't posted there (which you probably already knew). I still recommend JL2.

Thanks guys for the help...... I too have awesome battery life on the stock AT&T Froyo and I get better reception being on the 1897UCKB1 running 3G.

I have another question. I have been trying to get a newer version of camera.apk to work on a stock Froyo and everyone I have tried force closes. Also, I wanted to know if there was a version of extended power menu out there as well. Thanks Again!
[Defy General] ephumuris:
I rom hop a lot and when i mess up i have to do a lot of steps of flashing a 2.1 sbf to keep my downgradability. Handset was bought second hand so no shop warranty and if the earpiece fails i'm happy to repair it myself...

So is there any reason for me not to flash the full nord sbf. As it works for cm7 and miui...i can't see a downside so someone please stop me before i do it if there is good reason :)
[Defy General] sp8y:
Yeah I was in the same boat - bought it second hand (although only used for less than a day) so like you have no shop warranty & mine is an early model & could fix the earpiece myself if it goes but it's still going strong.

I flashed up to froyo as I had a little "play" with eclair & wasn't happy. I'm now running the Nordic & will upgrade to CM7 or Miui (not decided which one yet).

I guess it's only a matter of time before 2.2 is officially released over here so I suppose if need be any new UK sbf could be flashed. I can't think off hand of any reason to keep it downgradable to eclair :)
[Defy General] ephumuris:
Yeah screw it next time i mess up i'll go for the full flash. My Defy was second hand but still had original packaging and screen still had original film over it. Someones wife didn't like it lol.
[Defy General] sp8y:
Same here mate although mine had some nice girly pink wallpapers on that got deleted straight away :eek:

I'll be following your Miui thread to see how things develop - looking promising for this device what with that & CM7 - will thenneed to decide what to go for :confused:
[Defy General] ephumuris:
I'll make it easy for you... MIUI for eyecandy...CM7 for performance.
[Defy General] sp8y:
Nice one cheers fella - that's cleared it up for me. Just as well I've been following the 400+ pages on the CM7 thread from the start :)
[Defy General] ephumuris:
Well ive done it flashed the full nordic sbf. Then back to cm7...

Should make things easier to mess with in future.

X10i

Hi, after messing around installing many different android versions and basebands I am now worried I may have bricked it. I changed to another rom today, and when it booted up again it now says *baseband unknown* to start with I assumed it was because the rom wasnt built for the baseband, so I flashed the baseband listed in the post to no avail, since then I have flashed various basebands and various roms but it is listed as *baseband unknown* in them all. Any ideas how to fix??

Thanks in advance

I've found it impossible to brick my X10 even when messing up Xrecovery backups. Sony erricson update service will put stock 2.1 back on pretty much regardless of what you screw up software wise.

In fact I lost my Xrecovery backup earlier and bricked it, then had to use this method to recover, then re installed a custom ROM after the 2.1 restore.

i tried the tripmiui rom today and everything started working again, dont know what the hell yesterday was all about, anyway cheers for the replies.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagatto:
Hey guys!

I also have problem with Baseband: unknown! But my main problem is that mobile works arround 3-5 minutes and than goes to sleep (shut down). and only way for turning it back on is to pull out the battery, wait for few minutes and plug batt back in and than turn it on. And that way of turning on is not always successful. Sometimes i need to repeat that precedure few times untill it works.

I try to flash it with SEUS, where he worn me that its already the latest soft but i reflash it anyway. After that procedure finished I was unable to turn it on again. Just yellow triangle appear and than back to black without backlight. Than again, batt out...etc..

So i flashed it again with Flashtool and put Sony Ericsson X10i_2.1.A.435_GLOBAL-GGL GENERIC 1232-9897.

After that everything the same. Baseband unknown, working 3-5 min than shuts down....

and one more thing that i didnt mention is that everthing works except SIM card, cant recognize it.

And now i am at low batt..:mad:

So, considering that am not so good in that soft stuff i would be appreciated if someone have some kind of idea what to do next!

thanks...

Hi all, i'm using AmeriCanAndroid on my HD2 and i found it the best relase i ever tried so far but i have a little problem with the lockscreen image.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuul4nook:
Hi there. I'm new here and have been trying to absorb as much info as I can and learn. I've been trying to follow the verygreen guide to create a bootable SD card. However there's a step there that's not working as written.

The guide says to eject the SD card once the generic*.img has been imaged to the SD card and then re-insert it into the computer. The following step is to copy the ROM that I want to use (either the 7.1 beta or nightly). The problem I'm having is that when I go to re-insert the SD card, nothing pops up in My Computer.

Did I do something wrong?

Thanks very much in advance,

fuul4nook

P.S. This is a Kingston 4GB class 4 card that was connected to the PC with a USB adapter.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
You may have... I managed to kill one making images and using them in my nook. If you know what drive its going into when you insert it try to format it and start over. If it doesn't format, you're screwed. If it does, just do the whole card image thing over again.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sibyy:
What you can try is pop-it into either your Nook or another Android device and try to format it through there.

I've had many instances where Windows would just not recongnize and SD card and the above at least put it back to its initial state.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuul4nook:
Thanks for the responses. I was able to mount the SD card on another computer and on a Linux desktop, but my own refused to bring up the drive letter. I ultimately did as you guys suggested and reformatted the card on a different machine and started over.

Appreciate the help!

If you're interested in a different approach, try my just-released Hacker's Keyboard and let me know what you think. I've tried to stay as close as possible to a standard PC layout, it has 5 rows including numbers and punctuation in the usual places, plus Esc/Ctrl/Alt for ConnectBot. It's based on the Gingerbread keyboard, so it has multitouch support and voice input.

Can you give me more detail how it's showing as unavailable? Is that in the Market web interface, or the Market application? I've just confirmed that it updated to v1.10 normally on my Xoom using the Market app.

What's your system language set to? I was changing localization settings and removing not-really-supported languages in the v1.9 update, but according to the documentation that shouldn't affect eligibility to install it.

I can't be sure if it'd be even better, but I'm inclined to think the leftmost keys would be even more comfortable in the following order from top to bottom:

SHIFT

CTRL

Or maybe even switch ESC and ~ for more spacing on the more frequently used esc key:

ESC

TAB

[Xoom Themes and Apps] podjackel:
I have been using this keyboard to take notes in class, works very well! It does take a little getting used to, but I think a height of 50% in landscape makes it a little easier to use, so awesome option there.

A neat feature, one I would pay for, would be to rearrange the keys in a configuration mode, to be able to customize layouts on the fly, for say dvorak style layouts. I don't know the feasibility of this, but would be awesome if doable :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
That's issue #13, I do want to support custom layouts but that may take a while to implement. I've started working on a plugin system since it's also needed to support downloadable correction dictionaries.

The core complication is that the code currently assumes that language is equivalent to keyboard layout and that they get selected together as a unit, and a language "Dvorak" wouldn't fit into that system. Changing that to switch them separately isn't easy.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] طن كن:
hi

ples add my lang arabic :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] podjackel:
Ohh that is a pain. Is this in the droid system or in the keyboard code itself?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
Since I can't read Arabic myself, can you help test it? It's doable as long as it's sufficient for the keyboard to map keys and long-press alternates to single Unicode Arabic characters. There's currently no support for dead keys that modify other characters (adding accents or other diacritical marks), and it looks as if standard Arabic keyboards have those, is it ok to just go without them?

Also, the keyboard wouldn't know how to handle the ligatures needed to properly connect characters. Based on a quick look at the Unicode FAQ it sounds as if the recommended approach would be to for the rendering layer to handle this without the keyboard needing to know about it, but I'm unsure if that's how it works in Android.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
This is part of the Gingerbread AOSP keyboard code. I do want to change it since the current approach has other problems, for example it filters the available languages and layouts based on the system's concept of supported languages, so you currently can't get the German or Russian keyboards on a Xoom even though there's no technical reason to disable them, it looks as if the needed fonts are present.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
New prerelease, v1.14rc3

I've posted a new prerelease on the project page:

French (azerty) 5-row keyboard layout

Slovanian/Croatian 5-row layout contributed by Uroš Vampl

initial support for external dictionary packages

new shift key handling (fixes issue #24)

add missing tilde in German layout

space key corner cases fixed (see what I did there?)

Note that the extra dictionaries and layouts will only be available if your system supports that language.

Feedback as always appreciated, don't be shy! Also, adding new layouts is fairly easy, see the azerty keymap as an example.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
The latest version should now show all available layouts and dictionaries even if the system doesn't officially claim support. This should enable the alternate layouts and languages on the Xoom.

Try the latest prerelease (v1.14rc4 or later) on the project page, and please let me know if it works for you.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
Try v1.14rc5 (or later) from http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/downloads/list, it includes Arabic and Hebrew 5-row layouts.

Since I can't read either of these languages, I have no idea if these are correct and usable, I made them by typing each key one by one using the corresponding Ubuntu/X11 layouts and using the resulting characters, so please tell me about any needed corrections/additions. OI Notepad does interesting things when typing randomly on the Arabic keyboard using my Xoom, so it looks as if right-to-left writing and the Arabic ligatures are supported in the Android framework without the keyboard (or me) needing to know about it :)

Note that I haven't made a 4-row Arabic keyboard, only the 5-row one, since I can't fit all the keys from the standard layout and have no idea which characters should be omitted or included. If you have an idea what that should look like, please tell me, or (preferably) send me an edited version of kbd_qwerty.xml.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] podjackel:
You're doing awesome work. Keep it up :)

I would really appreciate a korean keyboard layout :)

there is a google korean ime in the market and the layout is a standard korean keyboard, let me know if you need any help/guidance/testing on the layouts!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
I can't read Korean - I thought that had a lot more characters than what fits on a standard keyboard? If it requires code changes and not just adding a simple key-to-character mapping, I think it would be better to keep it as a separate IME.

Otherwise, see http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/wiki/AddingNewLayouts for more details about adding additional 5-row keyboards. If there's no existing 4-row layout, that would also need to be added separately.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] kwx:
Thanks :)

It's a spare time project and I've had almost no time to work on it (having kids really cuts into your weekend coding time). I try to get occasional releases out for bugfixes or to add new keyboard layouts others have contributed, but don't expect large changes at this point. This may change if I find more time.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] dimm0k:
ahh, wonderful kids... enjoy them while they're young. it's great to hear from you and that this wonderful piece of software is still supported! I did have two things on my mind about this keyboard though that I'm hoping can be answered/added. Since I'm mainly using this on a phone in portrait mode, is there a way to get at the cursor keys without rotating the display or using the cramped 5 row option? Second is with the punctuation and auto correcting. If I wanted to finish a sentence with a punctuation I have to explicitly look for it and press it. As it stands if I were to finish typing a word the suggestion line would give me word suggestions until I either press the spacebar or the period. Pressing either of those would change the suggestion bar to give me alternate punctuations, but choosing any of them would insert it at the current position and that would either be after a space or after a period. It would be nice if choosing a punctuation would replace (auto correct) the space or period with the selected punctuation.

First off, thank you to the creator for what I've found to be the indisputable (by me, anyway) king of android soft-keyboards. I rarely use anything else.

There is _one_ thing which frequently interrupts my softkeying bliss, which I hope can be sorted easily. A lot of times, the top suggestions/punctuations row (for me, it's those configurable puncts that make that row shine) goes away and I can't get it to toggle in. I don't know if this is some limitation with Android itself, a bug, or a user (me) error. Can anyone advise?
