I have a problem with the notifications of the mail application. Without problems with galnet miui rom, but yesterday I found that after install the translation pack (i'm spanish) a "FC" is generated instead of a "new mail notification":

I started using this pack from galnet v3.1, i am now at v4.1.. and it has always happened. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andydev:
Anyone? 1/2 of my menu options are in chinese
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qinfeng0007:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PrimeDeluxe:
What language u want?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andydev:
Ah sorry, just English... 1/2 of the stuff on the rom I have in chinese and 1/2 in english...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PrimeDeluxe:
Did you set the language to english uk and did you made a reboot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andydev:
Yes.

If for example, I go to the phone application, press menu and then settings (Call Settings), it's all in Chinese
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
Try installing this zip from CWM. If it helps, I will include it in the next release of course;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
Sorry, I don't support older versions.

I recommend you switch over to Galnet MIUI.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andydev:
OK, thanks, will install Galnet now ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RaZi3L_:

I have the latest version installed.

Language is set to Eng UK, but I want my android keyboard to predict in Dutch (Nederlands)...

This used to work, but since V1 it doens't!

Anyone got a fix?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
Sorry mate, I include the wrong Email.apk :(

This one SHOULD work:)

Install using CWM as usual.

1. Go to Language & Input Settings --> Android keyboard settings --> Input languages

2. Push the switch next to Nederlands to the right

3. When using the keyboard, swipe the keyboard spacebar to change the input language.

Ok, last try. If this doesn't work I'm afraid I don't know how to fix it...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RaZi3L_:
bad news... the bug is yet there... There is an unkownFormatConversion problem when try to start mail_service_notify... I dont know if maybe is a problem with some character not present in the original languaje (chinese?).... If its is a problem with de translation.. maybe you can change the strings to "xxx" or something like it to see if it's a problem with the string characters... i dont know...

Not working!! :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] esvignolo:
Thanks, the compilation is great and work excellent.

Do yo compile for galnet v5 too? Thanks for your work.

Hi,

Did you think this package is compatible with MIUI 1.7.15 ? thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Toldo:
No it's not. Too much changes. On Galnet v5 gets into bootloop after installing this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeKroezz:
When do we get an language pack for v5.1??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
v5.1

Please test if Email notifications work now!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeKroezz:
Thanks man!! I don't use email so i cant test it for you..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] satriani-vai:
You are crazy man, I never would have thought that you've finished the translation so fast. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zozyk:
with Galnet MIUI v5.1 works the hungarian translate good. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lazy Rich:
First of all: A big thanks for the new language pack, it works great!

But I got a little question: is it normal that the page indicator dots in the launcher disappear after installing this? mine are gone...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] albertobom:
I've flash version 5.1 and now I went without phone and contacts applications!

?!

Plus I don't have language to change to... ?!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] komoornik:
Bug?

Chinese signs when I'm muting the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
Try wiping cash and dalvik-cache, then installing the pack again and fixing permissions after.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] albertobom:
Okay, I will try that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
Yes, some UI changes are not included in this version of the language pack because they haven't been translated yet. This version uses the translations for 1.7.8, and falls back on English if there's a new string. Images always take longer to translate because they need editing in Photoshop/Fireworks/whatever. As soon as everything is done for 1.7.15, I will update it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] albertobom:
Works... But my email apk gone. But no prob. I dont use it, use gmail.

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] flonec:
romanian????:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] esvignolo:
The spanish traslation work very well. Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Astug:
After flashing the home button stopped working (couldn't open app killer/manager) even after a reboot. Also, the 3 dots on the launcher disappeared and some images for "on" and "off" look skewed now. It also added a couple of apps to system that I had deleted before, such as email.apk, soundrecorder.apk, etc..

The Dutch translation is great tho.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] marwan91:
Hey I installed this on v5.1 but arabic rtl still not fixed(only at browser) this mean no fix for fb or gmail.. any1 having the same issue? And how can I fix it?

Thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jekkie:
How difficult would it to make it for the DHD and desire?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] montrealguy:
@ El Afortunado:

A couple things:

1. French Canadian uses QWERTY, not AZERTY. Can you fix this? The vocabulary should be the same as French (France).

2. The french dictionary is missing common words like "tres" and many others. Is there a dictionary/vocabulary we can download?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RaZi3L_:
yes!! mail notification works again!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RaZi3L_:
i don't like page indicator dots, remembers me too much to samsung touchwiz launcher, I like a lot the classic miui page indicator... So for me is fine that dots go away ;P In fact was a wonderful surprise to see dots go away after install the languaje pack ;)

Does anyone know how to change the keyboard for French (Canada) to QWERTY? French Canadian uses QWERTY, not AZERTY!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el afortunado:
5.2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] esvignolo:
Hi and thanks, elafortunado, one question, exists changes from 5.1 to 5.2, because the miui version is the same.

Thanks in advance

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] d3310n:
Ive noticed that many apps do not scale properly on my nc. They just seem to be about a quarter of the normal size and then the rest of the screen is black. Can this be fixed? Has anybody else noticed this?

Latest kernel, nightly #102
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] quikt:
Uncheck use compatibility mode in either spare parts or the development app.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] irisclara:
Thank you! I had given up on Floodfill ever working right again. This fixed it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] cirehawk:
Awesome tip. I use the tv.com app on my phone and it wasn't scaling on the NC (or my wife's XOOM). After this fix it is working perfectly. Interestingly enough though, when my wife runs it on her XOOM she doesn't see nearly the amount of available episodes as I do on the NC. Not sure it it has to to with the fact that she's running honeycomb, but she's all jealous of my NC now. lol
[Samsung Mesmerize] VET_LAG:
I have looked all over and can't find a fix that is for the mesmerize! That or I just don't know what I'm doing I guess.. lol

When I get an MMS the phone compresses it down to a small picture. It looks fine on the phone, but terrible on the computer screen!

Can anybody please help me? Its driving me crazy!!

Thanks!
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
send it via email. MMS compresses the picture for space to allow the file to send faster.
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
MMS wasn't really designed for large screens (i.e. a computer) it is for phone-to-phone messaging where the compression you're referring to wouldn't be very noticeable. If you're sending something to someone (or yourself) to be viewed on a computer, send it via email like akellar said. By the nature of Android, you already have a Gmail account on your phone, so you've got no reason not to.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
I'm pretty sure USC has a limit on the file size of MMS too - so it may not be possible to attach a picture with a large resolution.
[Samsung Mesmerize] kallell:
1 mb i thought?
[Samsung Mesmerize] foxfire450:
I thought so, too, but according to USCC's FAQ, it's 5MB, or I'm looking at the wrong place?

http://www.uscellular.com/support/faq/data.html#pics

Although it says "email" in the quoted text, it is in the section for "Picture and Video Messaging" which it calls MMS toward the top of the section.

*shrugs*
[Samsung Mesmerize] VET_LAG:
It's not USCC compressing it, it's the phone. My wife's Blackberry sent pictures full resolution to my Blackberry. Now her same phone still sends it full rez, but my phone compresses it. :mad:

There are fixes for other phones to allow them full rez, I'm looking for one for this phone!

Thanks all
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
Have you tried using other SMS applications such as GO SMS or Handcent?
[Samsung Mesmerize] VET_LAG:
Yes, I've tried GO SMS and am currently using Handcent and it makes no difference. Thanks for the idea tho!
[Samsung Mesmerize] 2fast4u88:
The mms can be modified to send full supported res of the phone. Then possibly receive also. But it depends on the phone the mms was sent from. Also us cellular has a 1mb limit.

Edit: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16907924/Mms.apk Dowload that and use root explorer to move it to system/app. Though make sure you force stop and clear the data for the stock mms in applications. I pulled that out of gas's rom but should work in mine and pick and pack if it is the ee19 mms. Enjoy :)

Edit2: Fixed link
[Samsung Mesmerize] VET_LAG:
Thank you!! Ok, I downloaded that and got it put in the system/app folder on my stock USCC ee19. I rooted it, then used root explorer. It didn't work! Do I need one of the other ROMs to make it work? If so could you please tell me exactly how?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm just learning this!! I did use odin to flash back to stock 2.1 a month ago, but then used Kies to go to the newest 2.2 this week.

Thanks!
[Samsung Mesmerize] 2fast4u88:
What rom you on? If stock ee19 it could be because you had odex files. I only mess with apps that aren't.

As for not working what do you mean by this? The app doesn't work or still the same issue?
[Samsung Mesmerize] VET_LAG:
Sorry, I meant still the same issue. I'm running the stock ee19 just released this past Tuesday. Sorry, I don't know what odex is?

Thanks for helping a newb!
[Samsung Mesmerize] 2fast4u88:
Um the odex files is hard to explain but a google search will give you quicker better results than me trying to explain it. As for having the same issue I am not sure.

As the only settings are for sending a message. Which I changed. But if it is getting a picture. It depends on the phone that is sending it. As when a picture is sent every android resizes it. Along with dumb phones.

The only phone I know first hand that doesn't do this is the desire. Which would only be one on cm, possibly some on aosp roms. Then ones on the roms I did.
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
Is it safe to use htc 1 amper charger?

Sent using Tt.
[GT540 Optimus General] JackG256:
Yes, the phone will only draw as much power as it needs, it is safe.

[Defy General] CSharpHeaven:
I will update this thread as I found issues.

1. Middle of downloads the phone turned off and refused to switch on. Taking the battery out enabled restarting the phone again.

2. Despite of master reset/factory reset the phone is really laggy. Freezing applications made Defy very responsive but under 2.2.2 it appears no difference at all. (Second factory reset seems brought back somme life to my phone now...)

3. Definitely something is causing an annoying delay at startup even though the phone appears to be ready to use.

4. I have noticed once after a restart the capacitive buttons didn't light up for 1-2 minutes even though I was using the phone. The LauncherPro is installed and I'm suspecting that is the culprit here.

5. Once a number is dialed the phone locks itself. This is rather inconvenience when you need immediately use the key pad to select options. (20 June 2011)

Guidelines - 20 June 2011

I decided to write a guideline for Defy users. The information provided here have already been mentioned by others but normally not in one place. Please follow the steps below every time you flash a new ROM.

1. Master Reset (Whether you like this step or not this is required to do. Imagine upgrading a windows machine, it would be simply a mess in most cases. Any pro users would tell you always to do a clearn install. The same principle with Android applies)

2. Discharge the battery (It seems flashing a ROM messes up the battery calibration. Drain the battery to the point it won't boot then recharge it from the wall socket)

3. Avoid Restoring Apps (Only if is a must. Since Android 2.2 is different to 2.1 many apps might not work very well with the same settings restored from 2.1. Some vendors also offer different version for Android 2.2 or higher. Installing from market is best practice)

4. Avoid using widgets (They are simply battery eaters. Avoid them if they don't provide useful functionality to you)

5. Don't trust all vendors (Many apps placed on Android Market is written by programmers with no experience at all. A badly written app not only drains more battery but also takes up more precious RAM than it should. The less RAM you have, the slower the phone performs)

6. Don't keep large number of emails in your inboxes (They simply take up more memory)

7. Charge your mobile from wall socket when you can. It really does make a difference and also a recommended method by Motorola.

8. Put the Mobile Network to 2G when you can. It does save considerable amount of battery.

9. Switch off the phone once per day for 30 seconds before switching it on again.
[Defy General] binodnepal:
Any chance to get hands on SBF for this release
[Defy General] techguyone:
Download available : Here http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/support/update/#
[Defy General] kashavsehra:
I notice on my handset (UK T-Mobile eclair) that the capacitive buttons sometimes dont light up when holding the phone landscape. I think there is a light sensor somewhere which detects the ambient light and adjusts the capacitive button lighting.
[Defy General] binodnepal:
I am on cm7 not sure if the phone will be detected by the msu. Will try once getting back home.
[Defy General] ollyshaw:
That will get you the motorola update software.

During the update the .sbf is downloaded. We need to get the sbf, however it is deleted once the update has finished. I think this happens when the motorola software asks to "reboot phone, connect usb and verify update".

Please, if anyone does the update make sure to find the .sbf file and copy it somewhere safe before the update is verified. Then post to xda of course :-)
