E-mails sent for support

Not to let this topic died I E-mailed Aldiko and Montano today.

The folks over at Montano replied with the following:

Hi!

I just read (overlooked would be more appropriate) the XDA thread. We could probably easily add support for the Vol Up/Down buttons. But, since we have developed a lot of software for EInk devices, we know how specific it is and usually the user interface and display partial refreshes have to be very carefully optimized. We did n't see our app on a Nook Touch, we are a little bit "frightened" by the possible result... Do you have a video somewhere? On EInk+Epson devices we optimized a lot the display operations, mostly by carefully selecting the most appropriate Waveform. For example, how does the highlight function behave ? It must be ...ugly, isn't it ?

Best regards,

-- The Mantano team

I'm at work and unable to take video but if anyone is able to help with this please chime in. Ryan

Did you find out how to remap physical to volume buttons? I also don't know how to do it!
[Nook Touch Android Development] giando78:
They did come back to me saying they will add to the roadmap the following feature requests:

- ability to configure scrolling amount, rather than having it fixed at 50px; this should reduce the number of scrolls per comic page which is very annoying on e-ink

- support for Nook Touch hardware buttons
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
As I informed above, DCV already accepts volume buttons (not original nook touch buttons), and a regular manga page fits the screen. Haven't tried longer pages.
[Nook Touch Android Development] mdall:
Are you still working on it ? It would be very useful
[Nook Touch Android Development] ryanpl:
I just heard back from Mantano Reader. They are planning to include support for Nook Touch Hardware buttons with their next big release which should be the end of this month.

[Nook Touch Android Development] klaberte:
browser?

Despite all the apps options, I still find I use my browser on my nook touch quite a bit. Is anyone asking a browser dev to add button functionality?

I know I can remap to vol +/-, but would prefer direct functionality.

If no one has requested, which browser dev do you think would be most receptive?

[General Questions and Answers] highamperage:
Hello! I am new to this forum, I figured you guys may be able to provide some input on a project I want to undertake.

I would like to use an Android phone (Probably an unlocked Chinese model running 2.2) as the brains for a remote control project. Since the phone has a GPS, Camera, and GSM connectivity all built in (and low power consumption) it seems it would be the perfect solution. To control the device, I was hoping connect a serial/usb servo controller (Pololu Micro Maestro) to the phone. However, I am having trouble finding any information on the viability of connecting a serial device to the phone – can this be *reasonably* done?

I appreciate any information you can provide!
[General Questions and Answers] lamebmx:
try a google search for bluetooth to serial adapter. that will be the quickest/easiest/most likely to be workable hack.

next up would involve USB-Serial adapter(choppin wires to attach your necessary connector), generics are dirt cheap, but you would need kernel support. drivers/usb/serial/ is most likely where you would be looking, most of the generics use prolific chips. quick check would be to lsusb in a terminal and see if something pops up.

yea id go with bluetooth - serial adapter.
[General Questions and Answers] highamperage:
That is a good idea... I will do some checking. Thank you!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gatorhater73:
I've just uncovered a problem with my USB Mass Storage mode since flashing (I THINK...) Gingeritis final 1.0. The problem is, it doesn't work! I plug my USB cable in, choose Disk Drive option, and NOTHING. I've tried mounting my SD card through CW recovery also, to no avail. I've confirmed the USB cable is good, as is the USB port.

My biggest problem now is, no matter what other ROM I flash, it still won't go into Mass Storage mode, which is presenting a huge problem when trying to sideload apps and ROM's...

I've even gone back to stock (rooted) MR1, exactly as my phone was immediately after rooting, and it's still out. I'm trying to avoid having to unroot and go back to square one to see if that fixes it. Anyone know of this issue and, more importantly, a fix for it? Thanks in advance!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamoglinsgal:
Try connecting as internet pass through, wait a minute or two, and then choose the disc drive option.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gatorhater73:
Believe it or not, I actually tried that, too. I just found that it does in fact work on my laptop running Linux and Windows Vista... I'd make the suggestion that perhaps it was Windows 7 that was the problem , except that it used to work on that machine, too, before Gingeritis, but now I can't get it to work on the Win7 machine for anything! Go figure....

Thanks for your input though!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crookshanks:
Won't work on my Windows 7 machine either. I just transfer everything through bluetooth now. Works fine on my Linux machine.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legion21:
since the tab 10.1 has been released has anyone had a chance to play around with both of them? I'm liking the xoom mainly for the development that has already happened for it. Anyone have any likes or dislikes for the xoom or tab 10.1?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brenardo:
I own a xoom and am opinionated I guess but I have been a Moto guy for a long time just because their hardware is pretty much unbeatable. I will admit there are a few flaws with the xoom but overall it is built like a tank. I prefer a hefty device,not that the Xoom is extremely heavy but to me weight = solid build quality. I hate plasticky Samsung devices because they are flimsy and do not stand up to my lifestyle. Plus I feel they are all but copying crapple(no external storage option). Just look at almost all the Galaxy devices. Sammy's touchwiz blows IMO and from my understanding it is going to be incorporated onto the non I/O tabs.

My. 02¢

If you want a stock Honeycomb experience with timely updates and a solid device then go with the Xoom, if you like light and plastic doesn't bother you along with waiting for updates them the SGT 10.1 maybe for you.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miguelberrios:
i had a chance to see and touch the Samsung 10.1 and even though I own the xoom I feel its nice. I have several concerns though. First the plastic quality like Brenardo said and the fact that the memory is limited. Trying to copy I pad. Other than that they are both virtually alike. It comes down to preference.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwwhershcom:
I work for a Bravo TV show and we currently Have a Galaxy 10.1 in our office. I played with it for a bit, and was not impressed.

Pros

Its very thin, light as a feather, and pretty looking.

Cons

There are no inputs besides the 3,5 headphone jack and 30 pin connector.

The power and volume buttons are on the top on the device when holding in landscape. A lot of people complain about the Xoom's button placement, but I found taking one hand out the device or having to turn it to the side to access thouse buttons extremely awkward.

Also there was a little gap in between the bezel and where ever it connects with the back of the device.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue13x:
I have both and the Tab has a longer battery life. About 10-11 hours, while the xoom is more like 8.5 to 9 hours.

Xoom will get updates faster.

Sticking with xoom, no SD card slot or HDMI is not worth my 600$.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brenardo:
Maybe it is not on it right now but, from your link...

"What's more, Samsung's also promising to deliver a number of new features in a "future software upgrade," including the TouchWiz UX that was originally intended to be included on the tablet, and Samsung's Media Hub, which promises "easier downloads of rented or purchased content"

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] akarol:
So... I don't know why this is happening, but one thing I am noticing from numerous review or information sites is that some are mentioning the metallic grey backing being, well, metal. Therefore, sacrificing a tiny bit of weight for feel and sturdiness.

Is this true? If so, anyone know the difference in weight? I don't mind a little extra heft for more peace of mind.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GuestK003:
This is the one I ordered... It looks like it's got the metallic back.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxsg:
Hi all.

I'm just newbie about android, but no newbie in xda-developers or understanding the concepts, I'm member since 2007 using pocket pc (windows mobile), palm, ios, and symbian, so please I'm not a fool, I'm just starting with android.

I've been already rooted my X10, using the oficial rom, but is geting slow now since I tested a lot of things, so I wan to test a custom rom, but I'm missing few things.

So, as I read, I understand I must do this steps in order to get mi X10 as I like:

1.- I must unlock the phone buying a code in some internet site, to be able to use it with any carrier.

2.- I must debrand the phone to be able to get any updates (actually mine is X10a)

3.- I must download some rom and follow the flash guide for newbies

4.- Pray and cross fingers...

I know perhaps it sounds to obvious for some one here, but I don't know if is possible to unlock using a custom rom, I have clear the debrand process is just a change on the rom and maybe the rom choosen could be already debranded. And yes, I must start pray before do anything.

About the update the baseband, should I do this before or after unlock the phone?

Just a question, I want to use a 2.1 based rom since I don't want to loose any features until gingerbread is officially launched and then the fixes for camera are ported to the available custom roms, so since I see to much roms in 2.1, wich one recommends? I just want compatibility, performance and stability, no matters about apps.

Last question, maybe decide just do a hard reset since we are expecting the official rom in few weeks, so if I reset to factory settings using my actual rom, I mean, cleaning data and all apps added using Settings> Privacy> Reset Phone Data, it means I will loose root also? I already installed the Zdzihu'z xRecovery v0.3-release, so I will loose this too? and JIT? If I use again the the SuperOne click is possible to root again the phone just in case?

If it is commented in other post, please just put me on the line and I will read, just don't blame me.

Thanks a lot.

Regards
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asa2303:
New rom will not unlock your phone, you need to do that through your carrier/ internet unlock site.

Install a rom you like, then change bb, then flash bbpatch if needed for rom to work on 52.

Can't help with 2.1 rom, am using wolfbreaks 2.2 with tweaks and mods included from a lot of different sources. Its a general mishmash but I have got everything working, and my x10 flies!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewddickey:
Welcome!

First off, Welcome!

I don't believe that the order matters when flashing baseband. It's left alone since the bootloader has not been cracked, only bypassed.

EWJet works great from Eric Will - has custom kernel ready to add on. Very fast. Lots of options and customize-able.

You will not lose root by Settings> Privacy> Reset Phone Data.

You only lose your settings, user apps, messages, call log, etc.

The easiest thing to do, is install original operators firmware:

Here

or

Here

Then use FlashTool to re-root, install JIT, and xrecovery.

FlashTool is an all in one tool that can take care of lots of things.

SuperOneClick is now obsolete

Ok, Ive looked to see if I could find an answer to this, but no avail......

Im running v2.0.0.0 CHT Editor on WM6.5 on a HTC Blackstone, and I am wondering, as I cant fin the answer here or in the fone settings etc....

How do you remove quicklinks from the page after they have been added?? What has happened is that with my fat thumbs, I have added multiple instances of the same program, and instances of programs that I don't want on my quicklinks table, and all I wanna do is remove them and replace them wih the programs etc that I actually want on the table....PLEASE help, this is getting incredibly infuriating....Thanks guys.
[General Questions and Answers] tyghe:
I don't know which version of CHTEditor I'm using, but if I click "Action," then "Edit Quicklinks," I just tap the ones I want to delete, then hit "Finish," or whatever, and it's done.

I don't have my phone in front of me, so I'm not actually entirely sure of the names, but you should get the general idea.

Hope this helps.

Just found out about this emulator..as I'm a bit new to the Android World (and smartphone world for that matter).. Its a Java emulator, so I'm hoping to get ahold of some older java based mobile games.

I plan on trying it out but I'm at work right now so I can't quite give it a go. Anyone have any insight? It would be awesome to be able to map the buttons to the Xperia Controls...

I'm also not sure if this requires a root to function properly. So insight is welcome.

hello, i noticed that amazon wireless is selling the evo shift 4g for $39.99 and was thinking of getting it. it would be my first non prepaid cell but not my first android device as ive been running cm7 on a nook color for about 8 months now. what are the pros/cons of the phone? what are all the available roms and which one is best? what do you think of the touchpad? thanks!
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
For that price if I could I would get another one. As your first non-prepaid you'll be very happy. The touch pad is great. As far as what ROM, that's a matter of how you use it and your personal preferance. Can't think of any Cons to owning the phone. But I'm bias. Absolutely love my Shift. For ROMs just check the Development section.
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
CM7 is available for the Shift 4G, so you would feel right at home. No real complaints about the phone, other than there not being a way to silence the ringer, and still allow notification sounds to come through . If the phone is on silent, the notification sounds are off, and same with vibrate.

I'm running a kernel, by x99Percent, or something like that, overclocked to 1.5 gHz. It runs smooth, and doesn't lock up. 1.6 and above (max at 1.8), and the phone will lock up.

But, as far as roms go, you have your choices:

Cyanogenmod

AOSP

Rooted stock type roms

Leaked GB rom for the Shift (soon to have the OTA update available)

Sense 3.0 rom
[EVO Shift 4G General] luciferii:
thank you both. and i read on sprint.com that you can download the gb update thru menu, settings, update or wait till the 20th for it to be force on ya.
[EVO Shift 4G General] scottspa74:
About the volume. Seriously? I have Evo 4g, and if you go to menu>settings>sound you can change ring volume to 0 and notifications to whatever you want. Media, as well.

You can't do that on a shift? It's damn near the same phone.

And as for the gb update. On Evo forum, we've been running several different roms that use the shift/speedy gb update as a base since about april 30th.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
You most definitly can silence ringer and not notifications. And don't update to GB thru Sprint. Just grab one of the rooted versions from the Dev forum.
