Hi

Please look at the first picture of the Dog. I am hoping to get similar pictures like that and that kinda picture can be got by Macro mode easily

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1082018

Its from an SGS2, but I am more inclined towards the Sensation as I have an HERO and HD7 so like HTC build

My HD7 has MAcro mode under Scenes, but it dosen't do much justice.

Hence my Question is particularly for HTC SENSATION Owners who could if possible take some snaps and post em over here just for comparison
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
wow, some of those pictures look pretty stunning!!
[HTC Sensation] ijatbenny:
Wow, it is really good for camera phone!! I wish my htc desire hd was good like that :(
[HTC Sensation] Super Chimp:
Well I didn't think in camera quality the GS 2 was too far off it. Though it didn't seem to quite match the Arc's low light performance.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Would be very helpful if any Sensation owners could post some full 8MP pictures so we can make judgements based on actual observation. Comparisons with other phones would also be appreciated. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] dexteral:
Amazing pics of sgs2 can anyone share of htc sensation
[HTC Sensation] andbakk:
I would also really like to see some more sample pictures from the Sensation...
[HTC Sensation] gaweer:
i'm still waiting for video and camera shot samples if it's not ****ty like my previous HTC DHD i will buy sensation. honestly what keep me thinking of buying HTC sensation is the sense and the build quality nothing more. I know the performance of the competitor is far better.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
appears you've made your choice so would it even matter if the camera was crappy?? :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Ok devs or whoever....

I am looking for some info and apparently i couldnt find any.. (this where u make me look like an @ss and send me a link or not)

I was able to flash a splash screen (very first screen u see when booting up) on both my G1 and M3GS but havent on my G2 or G2x.. Whats in entail to do so the the G2X... To change the first screen...(aka trinity when u flash morfics kernel)

I read somewhere that the boot.img needs to be split to do so... ??? ... Any info would be nice...... Subtle hints to the right whereabouts for this info would be nice to....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CrazyCharlie:
Use root explorer and go into system> media. In that file you'll see bootanimation.zip. You can change that out with another .zip of your choosing and rename it bootanimation.zip. This was how it was done with the Vibrant and I would think it would be the same with the G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Ok Charlie ill check it out... thought that was just the boot animation though without splash screen. Mmk though
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Ne1 with suggestions
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Yuhfhrh:
I have not been able to change it either using various guides. Changing bootanimation.zip will not change the splash screen, only the boot animation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
This is worth the $1 or whatever it is in sooooo many ways. Look at the related apps too (boot installer)... dude... you have no idea the simplicity of this and how clean each install was (I have tried probably 20+ of the boots and was able to customize by ripping one of the zip packets off the SD.... it shows the split too in the zip file.

Welcome to all that is glorious: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.canvs2321.absolute.system&feature=search_result

I'm on 2.3.3 fyi... didnt read the details but follow protocal with backups yada yada... =)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
...oohhhh... I missed that clarification. Ok so you want to change the "LG" splash just before the bootani starts... let me look, I gotta get back to you though... I came across that a while back and the instructions that the dev dropped with it didn't work but I tweaked it and got it. I gotta dig..:cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Yay the lg screen before bootanimation....

From what I read its un boot.img and that needs to be unpacked which would meen that every new rom flashed would have to b edited I assume
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
Yeah I can see it when I dig with root explorer and then throw the .rle in my drop box. I looked for that installer and was hitting blanks but I will find it today and also tweak that graphics archive. GIve me a few to diddle.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lannister80:
I also have a ViewSonic GTablet, which is also a Tegra 2 device. See this procedure:

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/162...logos-replace-viewsonic-logo-g-tabletzpad-t2/

Basically you use nvflash to put a bitmap file on a specific partition.

THE ABOVE PROCEDURE WILL NOT WORK ON YOUR G2X, but it's a starting point to figure out how to do it on the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Hey IB you make any progress?

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheBadBen:
gunnermike also has a White Chrome theme. Definitely not stock looking, and he has tons of icons also. FWIW, I'm using Erebos right now and while it does look fairly stock, it looks more white on the phone than in the screen shots.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] glsteve:
I want to flash the aosp port but i just don't like the notification icons.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] hecantbreathe:
You can always ask gunnermike in his boring aosp thread to see if he can make alternate notification icons. Not saying he will, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] glsteve:
Might as well give it a shot like u said doesn't hurt to ask.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] sunder74:
Or simply find a framework with the icons you want and use winrar to add them to the framework. Pretty simple to do just the image swaps.

Only thing that kills me about winrar is the thumbs it adds when you transfer a fully edited file folder. That will Bork your apk on compile. I always check each drawable folder for "thumbs"... :-/

[HTC Sensation] daivik:
Hi, could any sensation owners post screenshots (if possible) for their qHD sensation running regular apps?

(ones that aren't native/haven't been updates to qhD resolution yet)

what happens to them?
[HTC Sensation] asdfliuchen:
I also want to know....
[HTC Sensation] techenthusiast:
If someone can tell me how to get a screenshot (as i now cant root it) i will show you.

Basically it doesn't fit and its just black around the screen
[HTC Sensation] shan123:
This sucks and since not many devices have qHD yet it will take some time before apps are supported.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
thanks a lot. Does that not really degrade the joy of the qHD? How much of 'disappointment' is it, or are you not fussed about it??
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
So, does Google Maps or Nav, for example, have black bars around the borders? Tried any ebook readers?
[HTC Sensation] solsearch:
Those come on the phone pre-installed so I assume they've been made to work with qHD. And there's Kobo reader on board so it'd also have been optimized.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Don't like to "assume" before buying, so just asking for confirmation. I use lots of non-preinstalled apps.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
yeah, that's what I did assume but at Google's I/O wasn't there something about Android 2.4 making Android native to qHD. So that would suggest that up until then, it's not gonna happen. But then that's really rubbish if HTC have released it most of maps/android apps having black borders.
[HTC Sensation] Killbynature:
I'm guessing no one knows the atrix has a qhd display apps run fine on them. What makes you think apps would be different on there. Android hasn't has this problem since the first droid came out.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
because it makes sense. Imagine a game. Monitor is 1920x1200 game is 1920x1200, everything is clear and pristine.

But if that game was running at 1600x1200 the game is either going to be stretched (making it look ugly) or going to have black borders around the edge.

The same applies for phone apps and the phone resolutions.
[HTC Sensation] nicksean:
I also want to know
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
how about igo?
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Most Android apps are now built to run on various resolutions (remember the Xoom exists, and some other Android tablets). Most of the auto scale correctly. The only one I have encountered so far that looks weird was the options menu for Current Widget. It had black borders, but that's it. Doesn't look that bad really.

Facebook:

Current Widget config (has issues):
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
if you can it'd be a great help. :)
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Up now.

The little black bit on right hand side of screenshot comes from the screenshot utility. Facebook fits perfectly on the device.

I used the Android SDK screen capture tool.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
i seeee. really not as bad as i thought it'd be! :)
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Like I mentioned, Android apps can auto scale. Remember, there are devices running higher resolutions than phones. Developers need to make sure that their apps can adapt. It's not like Apple where you get HD versions of things for the iPad.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
oooohhhh really! Right...that's where I was going wrong. Should have known only Apple would do something like "forcing developers to re-do apps in HD" :p
[HTC Sensation] techenthusiast:
A lot of apps works fine on the phone. From my experience Ringdroid, Weather Widget.

Everything else Angry Birds, Mapps, Navigation all work fine no issues.

Some widgets are smaller as well, Grooveshark is slightly smaller and doesn't fit the screen but other apps fit fine.

Been playing around with it for a couple of hours any other questions?
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Yeah, I noticed that with the widgets. adidas micoach is one that is affected too. Hope they will patch some programs soon, if they don't work perfectly :) (goes for all apps/widgets)
[HTC Sensation] familyhousing:
Generally, I don't think there is an issue with qHD. Most apps seem to adapt to any resolution. I have had no problems with any apps, although some games seem to get stuck loading - something which I'm sure will be resolved through updates.

I would say that I am finding the increased screen resolution real-estate more noticeable than I expected. More of an advantage of gs2 than you would think.
[HTC Sensation] bongd:
No idea why everyone's suddenly sketching out. Do you think they'd release a device if this were going to be a huge mess?

It was a long while ago when developers started making apps that scaled instead of ones that were fixed or had images that were meant for a specific resolution. I only found 1 ancient app from a Canadian carrier that didn't stretch, but an update a while ago changed it to scale on any device.

If you're using an app that doesn't scale, chances are that it's absolute **** anyway. Contact the developer and tell them to start supporting current standards for their app.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Sorry, my UK English is weak. Could you please clarify?

Does that mean the Sensation has more of an advantage over the GS2, or the GS2 has more of an advantage, than you would think?
[HTC Sensation] Philio25:
The problem is that some developers are not following the Android guidelines to ensure their apps work on multiple resolutions. It's actually really simple to do (and the majority of apps have no issues), but there are still some exceptions.

One of the cool things about the Android SDK is that you can target different screen resolutions, e.g. so that your app looks different on a tablet to a phone, but I guess some devs must get the wrong idea (or just do it wrong)!
[HTC Sensation] familyhousing:
Sorry, my fault. It should have said "more of an advantage over gs2". I can only speak from my experience of sensation, but from all accounts both screens are great. Better resolution on sensation, better colours on sg2. For me they both seem top class devices. The only reason I chose HTC is for sense.
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
auto scale, does that mean something round is no longer round any more.
[HTC Sensation] Stan3k:
Older apps run with a black border. You can, however, get them to run full screen by downloading Spare Parts from the market and disable legacy mode.
[HTC Sensation] bongd:
What quality apps are this ****ty? Please let me know. Good developers will fix this pre-emptively. And if they haven't already, they would if a new generation of phones come out with qHD displays and a different resolution.
[HTC Sensation] Philio25:
If some people have some apps that load with borders, then there lies the answer to that question.

I've seen some apps through my work, built by companies with fairly extensive portfolios that have some pretty amateur mistakes in when it comes to Android. I'm guessing because they apply iOS techniques and expect it to work.

All they had to do was read... http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html
[HTC Sensation] bongd:
I don't see any complaints anywhere though, that's what I'm getting at.

I have an Atrix with a qHD screen and the resolution is the same. Also when I mess around with my density most apps scale pretty well despite not being meant for those awkward incremental changes.

There's nothing for anyone to worry about. If they do find a ****ty app that isn't programmed properly they should seek out a better alternative or contact the dev. Very easy fix.
[HTC Sensation] Philio25:
Yer I agree, I was just pointing out that it's the apps, not the phone, in case anyone thought otherwise!
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
I could've sworn I read in the manual that you can take screenshots but now I can't find it
[HTC Sensation] MiKA7:
Try powerbutton+home at the same time..
[HTC Sensation] techenthusiast:
Nope doesn't work
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
See that's what I thought I read in the manual but can't find it anymore. Maybe I was reading something else.

*edit*

I remember where I saw it: the htc website. it was in the how to/tips & tricks area but it seems to have been taken down. the page in my browser history no longer works.
[HTC Sensation] Lazzzara:
This is a non-issue

Go to market, download "spare parts". It's an app that gives you access to some standard Android settings that aren't normally easily accessible in most roms. No root necessary.

Untick "Compatibility Mode".

Restart.

Solved.
[HTC Sensation] m1r4j91:
Thaks for that solution, I can confirm that this does now work! Hopefully soon enough, app devs will update the apk's so that the resolution support has changed. Shouldn't they be doing this anyway once they develop apps? i.e. for tablet and phone.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arvinoids:
There are certain advantages about using Vonage from your mobile phone. One, cheaper calls to other countries, and another is that incoming calls are not charged if the caller dialed your Vonage number. I am using CM7 on an LG Optimus One and I am able to use a Vonage Softphone account on Gingerbread's Internet Call feature. Here's how:

You will need

1) A Vonage Softphone account. Signup through Vonage.com

2) Gingerbread with Internet calling enabled

Here's how to do it

1) Login to your Vonage account at vonage.com and find your Softphone username and password. Ask vonage if you need help on this.

2) On your Gingerbread phone, Go to

Settings > Call Settings > Internet Call Settings > Accounts

and tap Add account. Here's what you need to put in the fields

Username: 1xxxxxxxxxx (your 1+your ten-digit Vonage Softphone number)
Password: your vonage password
Server: sphone.vopr.vonage.net
Optional Settings > Port number: 5061

3) Press Menu and hit Save

To test if it is working, tap on the Receive incoming calls tickbox to see if it can register. It should say "Receiving Calls" under the account name. You may now use the dialer to call and when prompted, choose "Internet call".

Note: If you are wondering why you can use only a Vonage Softphone account, it is because this is the only account that shows the username and password. Vonage does not provide the password on regular lines because those accounts are for use only on Vonage adapters.

Questions? Drop me a line here ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jdogzilla:
How does this compare to linphone? And isn't the vonage account password same as SIP password? Any way non-Softphone users can use this too?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unperfec1:
After the main boot screen in my Galaxy S I get the attached screen

(it says "Galaxy S" and then Glitch with a kind of honeycomb background and an android guy).

The phone boots fine though(I cant tell if it's a placebo effect or not but I get the impression all animations are smooth but choppy in a way) and calls fine. I'm just wondering if I should worry about this screen?(Should I try to use my warranty?)

EDIT:

Please ignore, it seems someone decided to install a kernel on my phone without telling me...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Taxiozaurus:
Have you flashed a new ROM or theme? If you had, read carefully again thread you've taken theme or ROM. But if you haven't, you can forget about it, when phone works fine it's nothing more than a mess.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rschenck:
That is the opening screen for a custom kernel for cm7 made by tk-glitch. You seem to be totally unaware that you are running a custom kernel, and I would assume cm7. The flashing fairy came while you were asleep?

Is that even your phone? Found it looking lost on a table somewhere?

Beyond that, the phone is fine.

Edit...a friend installed a kernel without telling you, you say? Really? Not just a kernel, apparently an entire ROM. This sounds really, really weird.
