Gone South (or maybe east to Solvakia)

I was one of the forum moderators over there. The site initially went down around Christmas and was taken over a couple of days later by a web site owner in Solvakia. Don't know if goodintentions finally gave up financing it or if he just failed to renew the registration. Back in July he posted that he would be no longer be making updates to the site but was keeping it open. The forum was still receiving sporadic help requests though it had slowed considerably in the last couple of months. In any case, goodintention's site helped alot of users and while the information on it is located here or on SD, it provided an easy all-in-one reference. I commend him for keeping it open as long as he did since it was financed almost entirely through his own funds.

Its a crying shame the site isn't up anymore. There was some fantastic info there that literally held your hand and walked you through from a simple install to worst case scenario. Great resources for a beginner.

I cant even see it in the market after chainfire 3D etc. and tegra zone shows it as unreleased, but accordjng to droidgamers its out, can anyone see it or play it?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] children34803:

[Acer Iconia A500] ben.marks:
Hi all,

Anyone heard of the app battery calibration?

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

Just wondered if this would be ok to use on the A500 also? Im one of the people who got it home and didnt let it charge for 5 hours before using it, wanted to start playing ya'know.... anyone tried it? or have any experience with doing it on a tab? Or as its just android.... should it work fine.

I use it on my phone and its ok.
[Acer Iconia A500] CrArc:
I didn't wait either, but that just meant I had to sit ridiculously close to the power socket, heheh.

Nobody said I couldn't play while it charged!

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say we don't need to use that app, though I've thought the same thing myself before. I don't recall anything about having to drain the battery once every month or two either. These newfangled modern Lipo cells just take care of themselves, apparently.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
li battery maintance

I use several new power tools and devices with the new li palamer batteries.from what I have read. To maintain then just do not leave then dead totally without a charge more then a longhorns so. But they will hold unused charge for up to 5 or 6 months running them dead is the only issue I know of.they do only last a few years with constant use. 200 or so charge cycles.

This is my experience with other similar batteries.so I don't think calibration software is required. Check manufacturer specs and recommendations

:o
[Acer Iconia A500] ben.marks:
Wow, 200 charge cycles? are you sure thats not an understatement, ive already charged 100% and discharged to around 5% around 5 times already and only had it just over a week.

im using this tablet a LOT!
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
You'll get more than that. 200 cycles is merely an average number before you MAY start to get some reduction in capacity.

I'd be very surprised if you had battery issues within the first 2 years, tbh.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
yes

200 is average at full usage before itbstarts to detereat
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jhsiao36:
I have a HD2 (T9193) dual booting YukiXDA's Nodo Rom v.3 and AmeriCanAndroid (June 10 build). Radio is 2.15.50.14.

Everything runs great, but the HTC Hub that I've installed has a link for Need for Speed and HTC Stocks, which always takes me to the marketplace, even though I have both apps installed. Installing other HTC apps like Sound/Photo Enhancer does not place them in the HTC Hub either.

This occurs with every version of the HTC Hub I installed (1.5 and 1.7), and even after I hard reset and run Task29.

Anyone else have this issues, and/or have any suggestions? I found a thread where someone asked the same question, but it was never addressed.

BTW, the phone is not activated for marketplace.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] lihkin:
Whats a big deal in that the HTC Hub doesn't even update automtically for weather I hav d below ROM mentioned in signature n had use earlier version of same rom but in niether of them it showed me anything else than stock and nfs also I have WP7 activated I can get apps downloaded frm market place but nothing changes.
[G Tablet General] bebopblues:
iOS has Safari Mobile, WP7 has IE Mobile, I'm just curious to why Google hasn't released a mobile version of Chrome for android. Android is at version 3.x now so its pretty matured, but still missing Chrome. Does anyone know exactly why they are not releasing it or why the delay?

I also don't get why Apple hasn't released iChat for iOS.
[G Tablet General] tjsooley:
Dont know why dont you ask them and report back?
[G Tablet General] gTen:
umm..because Android stock browser is chrome? it just needs updating...

My guess is at some point in the future Android and Chrome Os might merge in some shape or form...but to put a full featured chrome on Android would kinda remove the point of Chrome OS...
[G Tablet General] EL TEJANO:
Correct the stock browser is based on the desktop version of the Chrome Browser. However it still does not have the same GUI.

There are multiple web browsers though that offer many of the same functionalities. I'm currently digging the Angel Browser myself.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
I've setup VLC Direct Pro and it works on wifi/LAN.

However, it doesn't work over 3G, it finds the server but just gets stuck at buffering (doesn't seem to buffer anything).

I have opened up and NAT ports 8080 and 5554, I'm 100% sure my server side / network side config is OK because I have a samsung galaxy tab that DOES WORK when streaming over 3G.

I'm pretty sure its not a NAT or firewall issue as I can see a dynamic translation in my router for port 5554 as soon as I hit play, its definitely going through, and like I said it works fine for my other android device over 3G.

The N1 however, going back to the exact same backend, only works over wifi.

??? anyone else seen this?

N1 running Cyanogen 7.03
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexruys:
I have the same issue, except even on 4g.

Tried with a vpn connection, but i can still only browse my files - it will load the file's length and tries to buffer.

ideas?

None lol

Does it work with different device?

Hi!

Can someone tell me if i must start my VCL on my PC every time i want to use this? Or can i config it to play even without starting VLC manually?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdbpdb:
You can start vlc with "-I http" parameter.

Put it in a script and put the script in the start folder (for windows).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serlex:
Hello to all! I've reading the forums for a while 'cause I'm about to receive my new SGS 2 from all-mighty Vodafone in Spain, which is my 1st Android phone ever.

The thing is that, as I've seen that the branded firmware is stuck at KE1 I was thinking to flash it with lite'ning rom 1.3 from the beginning but as I've never used it before I have a couple of question.

a) Does it include Spanish SWYPE support?

b) Can I read/write Japanese characters wit it?

b1) if it can read but I cant write...anyone recommends me a fine Japanese input app?

Thanks!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hawkian:
Greetings all,

First time posting here though I am a longtime supporter and admirer of the XDA community- you guys rock!

My issue is with the Splashtop software used in the MyCloud app by Asus. All in all, this software is amazing- yes, you trade the ability to connect from any internet location (LogMeIn seems to remain best for that unless using RDP/VNC which are not browser based), but you get the most impressive streaming experience I've seen yet on an Android, even beating some Windows-to-Windows LAN streaming on a more powerful laptop than the Transformer!

My issue is this- they only work in windowed mode, but I can tell that games, in terms of graphical fidelity, input lag, and even sound, are totally playable streaming from your PC, even complex graphically intense ones. I say "I can tell" because there's a problem totally separate from the streaming that makes them unplayable. This is a shame, because I would literally be able to play Portal 2 (on an Android device..!?) from anywhere in my apartment if not for this glitch (I can tell by how it runs).

The issue is that, even though the mouse and keyboard (or external USB ones) function properly everywhere else in the OS, inside game windows all kinds of weird stuff seems to happen. I'm fine with having to click-to-drag for mouselook, you can get used to it fairly quickly actually. And not being able to re-map right-click to something more logical is a bummer. But beyond that a large number of things that don't make sense occur:

-To left click, you can't just click or tap, you have to tap, hold, and drag. This is a huge problem and I don't understand it! Outside of the game window, clicking works fine.

-Right clicking doesn't seem to work reliably in-game at ALL

-Keys (at least on the dock keyboard) seem to behave very strangely. Some (like the number keys) appear to always work fine... WASD sometimes work and sometimes don't... other keys never appear to respond. These keys seem to always work fine outside the game window, though.

Has anyone else encountered these issues? Any suggestions? It's frustrating, it's like I'm three tweaks away from the future of gaming and I just can't get there!

Anyway, kudos to Splashtop on the very awesome software despite these quirks. I hope they can be addressed and make this a truly killer app.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenTea420:
Hey guys,

I've been having great difficulty receiving sms messages on my Evo. Over the last week I have been toying around with Gingerbread ROMs and the new radio combo. Here is a quick rundown of my phone:

Rooted

HBoot_0.76.2000

ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7

Running various ROMs, including MIUI 1.6.3, CM7, Deck's 1.0, Gingerbread Stock odexed, Fresh Evo 3.5.0.1 (Froyo)

Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_2.15_003

Anyways, I'm able to send texts, but I cannot receive them. I can, however, receive mms. I've spent the last few days searching for a fix to this problem. I think I've narrowed it down to the APN.

I'm not quite sure how, but my APN seems to have disappeared. My method for verifying this has been using APN OnOff and looking at the list of APN's. The list is empty. From what I have read, it should be populated.

I'm a little skeptical though that this is solely an APN problem. After all, my mobile data and mms work fine. From what I have read, APN affects both of these. No APN would mean no mobile data and no mms.

If anyone has solved this, or seen something like this, I'd really love to hear. I have considered doing a hard reset, but I am doubtful that would fix the problem. Any advice?

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I have done at least a dozen PRL/Profile Updates.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
Have you tried wiping everything and loading up a fully stock rom. Basically starting from scratch
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenTea420:
Well, I always wipe before flashing, so keep that in mind. The next step is a return to stock/unroot/etc. I've been unable to do this though since I have the latest radio. Unrevoked does not yet recognize the new radio. (This is assuming you meant that I return to how the phone was when I first got it).

I have a bit of new information though that may be helpful. I was able to receive a text message this morning from my sister, who also has an Evo. I am not sure about off network messages, but I know for certain sms from Gmail are not being received even though they were in the past.

I'll know more about receiving off network sms in an hour or so. I'm not sure what to make of this situation.

EDIT: When I use APN backup & restore, this is what the backup .xml file contains:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>

<apns count="1">

<apn name="Production" numeric="00000" mcc="000" mnc="00" apn="1" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" mmsprotocol="2.0" mmsc="http://mms.sprintpcs.com" type="mms" />

</apns>
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenTea420:
Alright, I have some important new developments.

About a month or so ago I ported my Sprint number to Google Voice. The integration has been wonderful. The app I use for sms is Handcent. I almost never use the Google Voice app. It is not set to notify me.

Typically when my father sends me a text, he does so from Gmail. I have not received one from him in quite some time (probably two months). He is the only person I know of who sends me texts via Gmail. Typically when he has sent me a text, it is retrieved by Handcent.

In this situation, my method for testing sms funcationality has been to send myself texts via Gmail. I have not been receiving them via Handcent. The messages are only received via Google Voice. Keep in mind that I have been receiving mms and they are retrieved by Hancent. I took this to mean that I'm not getting sms messages.

This morning I received a text message from a phone on the Sprint Network and a phone on the Verizon network. They were retrieved by Handcent. Therefore, my problem seems to be only receiving sms messages from Gmail. Could this be a bug in the Google Voice/Sprint integration? Might Google recognize that I am sending a text to a Google voice number and instead of forwarding it over the cellular network, send it straight to Google Voice?

**On a side note, I'd like to change the title of this thread to reflect this more specific problem. How can I go about doing this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
Easy fix

You're very close to looking in the right place to fix your SMS issue. In Google voice (the web site not the app on your phone), click on the Gear icon and go to Voice Settings. Find your sprint/GV number and click "Edit." Check the box for "Receive text messages on this phone" and Save.

Not real sure why, but that checkbox gets cleared when you install a gingerbread rom. It may not be all roms that this happens with, but it is definitely the case with MikG.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenTea420:
jesuspgt, good thinking. I went into the Google Voice settings, but that box was already checked. I'm wondering if maybe there are some behind the scenes adjustments that are going on with sprint and google. Are you able to send texts to your phone from your gmail account and receive them in any sms app other than google voice?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
Now that you mention it, it would appear that no, I can't. I've never used gmail to send SMS though, so I have no idea if it's ever worked or not.

I did test sending an SMS from voice.google.com and that did show up on my stock messaging app as well as GV. So that may be a good alternative in the meanwhile.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenTea420:
Aha! So it does appear to be a Google/Sprint problem. I think I'll make a report to Google later on. Hopefully they will address it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iznee:
You can try samsung mobile print from the samsung app store ..or go to android market and search for cloud print..maybe 1 of them will work for you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stonefox:
In all applications on Galaxy S I9100 option menu to print and press the button a box up that says "Select Printer". This box says no printer shown, but I can search for wireless printers around, but can not find my HP DeskJet 8500 Wireless Pro and this is what I want to work
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3waygeek:
IIRC, the 9100's built-in print capability only works with Samsung printers. You'll need a third-party app such as those suggested by iznee.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EleCtrOx666:
If you have a PC connected to the printer 24/7, you can try Google's cloud option to print, "Google Cloud Print".

[Blade General] pesand:
Hi, I have a brand new Blade. I did not make any changes to stock rom, phone is not rooted. It is just as I've unpacked from box. But on saturday my phone freezed when using sygic navigation a then it did not want to start. Just constant reboots. Even with sim and sd card outside. After a while, when I let phone without battery, it booted correctly and it was working good. Yesterday evening I charged it, but charging stopped on 70%, red LED was not shining. It was about 10 pm. I took phone to bed with me and today morning (after 7 hours) battery was only 10%. During my travel to job phone run out of battery. In my office I connected phone to charger and power it on and it start rebooting constantly. So I powerd it off, waiting to be fully charged. I seems to me like a very strange behavior. Could the phone be faulty?
[Blade General] k0zmic:
It does sound odd. How long did you let it charge to begin with? Just let it charge like 12 hours to verify if the battery/hardware is faulty. If so I'd get it replaced.
[Blade General] pesand:
RMA

I've already taken to reseller. Phone had problems with signal. It losts signal and was unable to get connected back to the network. Fully charged battery was at 30% after four hours of idle (after hard reset, without any software, only joined to gmail). It is a pitty, it is good phone. Reseller is out of stock, so I have to wait until new supply.
[Blade General] k0zmic:
I see. It's an excellent phone. I'd just wait for new supply and get it replaced if I were you.

Hopefully your next one works.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] yaely_ole:
Looks nice thanks going to try
[HD2 Android NAND Development] manicminer:
Thanks Looks good! Will give it a go.....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] [zozi]:
supports ext3/ext4 for data or data only in nand memory?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] deano309:
Yes, Kernel supports Wi-Fi Calling, Wi-Fi IEEE 802.1x/EAP, native Wi-Fi Tethering, unique Wi-Fi/Bluetooth MAC address, low power mode Bluetooth, UTF-8, CIFS, Yaffs, Ext2/3/4, NILFS, ReiserFS, BTRFS, and the official HTC extended battery

You would need to configure it for app2sd, data2sd and dalvik to sd as these are not implimented by default!

:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] xpstyle36:
Downloading now, looks great! AND Rapidshare links, you sir are a win :)

Will report back when I have flashed.

Thanks!

Edit: Flashed, looks nice but I have turned off compat mode in spare parts and the lockscreen is still out of proportion. And the wake up lag that exists on my type of HD2 screen is still there, but you would have to be a miracle worker to fix that as its a driver issue i believe :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] deano309:
The lockscreen should utilise tha whole screen after a restart :)

I can't work on the wake up lag due to the libs working on mine without the lag :(

There should be available libs for your screen.... does every rom you try have the lag?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] [zozi]:
Thanks for you answord... but there is a noob question, how i configure the app2sd, data2sd and dalvik?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] deano309:
You can install the Apps2sd version I have posted under the

Extras:

section, it includes a user interface which lets you set the apps2sd and dalvik2sd.

There can be problems with stability on data2sd so I omitted it from any optional updates but may add it later if I can find (Or if someone informs me of) a stable one.

Hope this helps :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] xpstyle36:
Yeah, the lag is there on evey ROM, its due to the type of screen there is the Sharp screens that have no lag, and the other one, cant remember the name but it tells you about it in this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11635947&postcount=440

Nobody seems to care about the issue anymore and its so damn annoying, it almost ruins android on my HD2. I don't know if you have any idea what needs to be done to fix it but any help would be greatly appreciated by the community :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] htcfreak:
Looks promising..!!! :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Three questions for you:

1. How does speed/stability compare with Hyperdroid 2.1?

2. How often will you be updating?

3. Do CM7 Theme Chooser themes work with it without modification?

Nice to see another CM7 ROM here - great work :cool:
