This is my XDA-Developers bootanimation.

Actual speed is faster.

Install like a custom ROM.

I made this for Android Revolution HD ROM but should work on other ROMs too!

version of cyanogen mod? I have CM7 RC-0

installed right now and i am not sure how to

update to the most recent nightly to enjoy a few

improvements made to RC0 already.

Also, will i lose any of my settings/data?
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Specimen:
I bought a DHD that already has S-OFF and currently using Android Revolution HD/4G 2.1.

I want to update to the latest Android Revolution HD (5.1.10) and just want to confirm some things...

It is recommended to flash Radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 and I am currently using 26.03.02.26_M. Is it a must to update the Radio? and will I also need to update the Kernel?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndriodLover:
No, it's not a must to update the radio. It's only recommended. You can flash whatever radio you desire. And no. A kernel is included in the rom but if you like to flash a new kernel you can do that.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getaceres:
Anyway, although is a risky process, doing it through fastboot is not very difficult to do. I don't know how it goes with another radio since I updated mine to install ARHD.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Specimen:
Thanks guys. got it all working good now.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dod6:
The newest ARHD always includes new radio.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
are you 100% on this? I was sure radio had normally to be flashed via fastboot not through clockwork, respect to the developers if they do go to the trouble of integrating the flash of the radio into the rom though
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
I can confirm that ARHD does not include a new radio, just RILs for the recommended radio.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fraise:
Dev says to flash radio they feels better for their ROM.

I've installed AR 5.1.10 and flash new radio....

it's really easy...really....just extract downloaded file and read the guide inside! (3steps...)

[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
As I was reading through the gsmarena. I noticed that the HTC Sensation ALSO suffers from the so called "Death Grip". What does this mean for us?

Well it's unfortunate enough for almost ALL of us that we don't have "unlocked" bootloaders, as a lot of the developers said that it's a software problem, that we cant flash the software "fixes" to our phones.

Then I noticed this:

as far as I can see, based on images and videos that I've seen. The HTC Desire S and HTC Sensation may have almost the same built, I mean materials (correct me if I'm wrong), even maybe structural design. Both Wi-Fi radios are placed on top at the back, and cell radios on the bottom. And they're both external antennas on the back casing/s.

Now my phone is one of the "unfortunates" who has the so-called "Death Grip", and doesn't have any jelly case/protective case yet.

And I was wondering, will the quoted text above be true? That it would suffer MORE than fix the problem if we put a case on our beloved HTC Desire S?

Now I've made this as a poll, so that means:

1. You are using the STOCK ROM of the phone and haven't applied any Wi-Fi fix.

2. Make sure your phone has the so-called Wi-Fi Death Grip

3. You have a casing on your phone. Doesn't matter what.

Once you've answered please indicate and reply with the following info below:

1. STOCK ROM using

2. RADIO version

3. What case are you using. Please specify. And maybe where you bought it.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] XDA mark:
Downloading it now. Hope it works with Chainfire 3D.. Looks like an AWESOME game!

And its free! First galaxy and all... $15 in game purchace for full game.

Just wanted to let you guys know

Edit: its working! :D Smooth and all.. This game looks so good. I may have seen some small graphics bugs on the background.. nothing major.

Edit 2: Here is a youtube vid showing every step regarding to seeing and running Tegra 2 games on your Galaxy S II

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_tBKHgxrcU&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Bratag:
Had to use chainfired3d with the tegra plugin in order to get the textures to work correctly. Runs very smoothly and doesn't seem to heat up the phone too badly.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sammy555:
Cant get it working and ive updated chainfire 3d (paid version) and used nvidia plug ins. cant get riptide working wither which others are. Are there more up to date plug ins? only seem to find same ones all the time
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Bratag:
I had this exact same issue. Turns out I had to uninstall chainfire3d. Then reinstall - non free - then pro. The reinstall the plugins. For riptide you will also need the shaders (google for them). Then you need to set per app settings for riptide and GOF2. use the tegra plugin.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] chr22:
Download?

How do you download this game? I cant find it in marked on the phone and web version of marked says it isnt compatible with my device so i cant download it!

Using Lite'ning Rom v1.4 XWKF1
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] XDA mark:
You need to use chainfire 3D and press "fix market". All Tegra games appear. See first post I will put a good youtube tutorial which explains everything.

Hmm, maybe some people don't have this bug ? (the stars are disappearing sometimes)
[Nook Touch Android Development] pcm2a:
I don't know about everyone else but I would love to see apps that support our Nook's hardware buttons for scrolling and turning pages. I created an small app just to find out exactly what these buttons were. I have attached the test apk and the source for it.

The buttons generate a KeyEvent that can be captured in the normal manner for handling key presses.

Left top button - 92

Left bottom button - 93

Right top button - 94

Right bottom button - 95

All the developer has to do is test for those in addition to whatever they are already monitoring for. I am going to begin emailing developers with this information and see if I get any "takers". I have emailed the following and will post a status here if I hear back:

Kindle - 5/16: Received an email saying the suggestion would be forwarded on to the appropriate development group

NewsRob (via google group) - 5/16: The developer is going to add page up/down and article up/down support!

FeedR - 5/16: Email sent

Aldiko - 5/16: Email sent

FBReader - 5/16: Email sent

In addition I am going to add hardware button support to some open source apps. I have located a number of open source RSS apps:

http://code.google.com/p/feedgoal/

http://code.google.com/p/feeddroid/

http://code.google.com/p/reader/

As an example of what we can do I have attached an updated FeedGoal where I have added support for the hardware buttons to scroll up and down on a feed article.

Update 5/17/2011:

I have modified the Browser from the stock Eclair to support page buttons and compiled it. When I try to start it on the Nook it comes up and then shuts down. One of the times I saw a "signing in" box. My thoughts is that it is trying to do something that requires gapps on the phone? If anyone has any ideas I'd be glad to try them.

[Nook Touch Android Development] xboxexpert:
Keys are actually

key 407 RIGHT_NEXTPAGE

key 412 LEFT_NEXTPAGE

key 139 LEFT_PREVPAGE

key 158 RIGHT_PREVPAGE
[Nook Touch Android Development] pcm2a:
Those numbers are the scancodes from the keymap file TWL4030_Keypad.kl. If you are wanting to watch for key inputs in an Android application you override the "onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)" method and the "int keycode" that get's printed out is 92-95.

The format of the keymap file (TWL4030_Keypad.kl) is "key SCANCODE KEYCODE [FLAGS...]". In your example 407 is the SCANCODE and "RIGHT_NEXTPAGE" is the KEYCODE. The numerical value of "RIGHT_NEXTPAGE" is either 94 or 95 depending on how you set your Nook up.

If someone wants give the two attached apk's and test and verify (I've already ran them myself) that they do work as intended that would be great.

- The TouchTest should print out 92-95 (keycode) on the screen when you press them.

- The FeedGoal should page up and down when you press the right or left side keys. I may go back and change the left side to be page up/down and the right side to be article back/forward.

ReadItLater

I add a ticket to ReaditLater Support Forum.

http://support.readitlaterlist.com/...droid-support-for-nook-touch-hardware-buttons

update:

i contact the dev of electrodroid, too

are there new answers from the devs?
[Nook Touch Android Development] aruangra:
If you remaps two keys to VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN, almost all reading-centric programs work will hardware buttons. I have tested:

Read It Later

Kindle

Aldiko

FBreader

CoolReader

Moon+Reader

RSSdaemon

NewsRob

BuzzBox RSS reader

They all works with remapped buttons.
[Nook Touch Android Development] rev0l:
yes, of course.

but this is just a workaround and i already recognized that there are situations where i have to take the nook in the other hand to turn a page...

for example: i use the left keys remapped to volume for readitlater, so i can only use the right keys on the default reader app (which i prefer).

i think for some apps you will always have to do this remapping, especially for the kindle app in my thougts.

and it seems to me that the devs will easily can integrate this buttons in their apps.

a lot of other apps are already working with the default mapping:

e-mail

twicca

titanium backup

root explorer

alogcat

autostarts

moon+

...
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
Is there no way to remap the hardware buttons using like a driver software (sorry, completely noob regarding android software). Remapped buttons would help on repligo and ezpdf, my preferred readers.
[Nook Touch Android Development] nopnopnop:
I liked seeing the NewsRob support in the change log. But it only scrolls half a page down so you have to hit it twice.

I found that my old technique of remapping the key to SPACE worked better; SPACE is a page-down shortcut for most WebView apps. Unfortunately my SHIFT SPACE mapping in the layout file seemed to ignore the shift part. :-(

Android 3.0 adds real page up/down keys finally, so more apps should support the keycodes then. This isn't just a Nook issue; I've been trying to fix this on my Galaxy Tab too.

I blame Apple for not including a page down function because it's so "cool" to flick the screen around. Hope you have good timing.
[Nook Touch Android Development] DenisTheMenace:
Good news, everyone!

This weekend I received reply from FBReader authors. Here is the translation:

Since version 1.1.3 FBReader is able to read external file with actions mapped to keys. One can put keymap.xml file into main directory, which is /sdcard/Books by default.

File format can be seen in example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
<binding key="4" action="cancelMenu"/>
<binding key="23" action="processHyperlink"/>
<binding key="24" action="volumeKeyScrollBackward"/>
<binding key="25" action="volumeKeyScrollForward"/>
<binding key="66" action="processHyperlink"/>
</keymap>

All possible actions are here:

String SHOW_LIBRARY = "library";
String SHOW_PREFERENCES = "preferences";
String SHOW_BOOK_INFO = "bookInfo";
String SHOW_TOC = "toc";
String SHOW_BOOKMARKS = "bookmarks";
String SHOW_NETWORK_LIBRARY = "networkLibrary";

String SWITCH_TO_NIGHT_PROFILE = "night";
String SWITCH_TO_DAY_PROFILE = "day";

String SEARCH = "search";
String FIND_PREVIOUS = "findPrevious";
String FIND_NEXT = "findNext";
String CLEAR_FIND_RESULTS = "clearFindResults";

String SET_TEXT_VIEW_MODE_VISIT_HYPERLINKS = "hyperlinksOnlyMode";
String SET_TEXT_VIEW_MODE_VISIT_ALL_WORDS = "dictionaryMode";

String TURN_PAGE_BACK = "previousPage";
String TURN_PAGE_FORWARD = "nextPage";

String VOLUME_KEY_SCROLL_FORWARD = "volumeKeyScrollForward";
String VOLUME_KEY_SCROLL_BACK = "volumeKeyScrollBackward";
String SHOW_MENU = "menu";
String SHOW_NAVIGATION = "navigate";

String GO_BACK = "goBack";
String EXIT = "exit";
String SHOW_CANCEL_MENU = "cancelMenu";

String ROTATE = "rotate";
String INCREASE_FONT = "increaseFont";
String DECREASE_FONT = "decreaseFont";

String PROCESS_HYPERLINK = "processHyperlink";

String SELECTION_SHOW_PANEL = "selectionShowPanel";
String SELECTION_HIDE_PANEL = "selectionHidePanel";
String SELECTION_CLEAR = "selectionClear";
String SELECTION_COPY_TO_CLIPBOARD = "selectionCopyToClipboard";
String SELECTION_SHARE = "selectionShare";
String SELECTION_TRANSLATE = "selectionTranslate";
String SELECTION_BOOKMARK = "selectionBookmark";

Program must be restarted in order to pick up changes in config file.

Can anyone test if this really works? I can't test it right now.

And, I suggest to make a donation to this wonderful program authors.

Cheers.
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
Great news!

If other developers would do the same, we'd be in heaven.

I'll only be able to try it tomorrow, but I'll inform as soon as I do it.
[Nook Touch Android Development] seinkon:
Thanks! It works very nicely with FBReader. My keymap.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
<binding key="92" action="nextPage"/>
<binding key="93" action="previousPage"/>
<binding key="94" action="nextPage"/>
<binding key="95" action="previousPage"/>
</keymap>

Does anyone know the key number of the Nook button? It's quite useless for FBReader and it would be nice to remap it to some other function. Thanks!
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
Anyone thought of trying to create a service that'd catch the button presses outside of the stock apps that'd then send the right command for whatever. For example if you press the page forward button or page backward button in stock apps it'd function as designed. If you push it somewhere else like within your custom launcher or another app it'd perform as menu/home/back whatever
[Nook Touch Android Development] nooktouch:
Yes for remapping the n-button. See this post. But still haven't had the time to do it. Too busy with work.
[Nook Touch Android Development] mycr0ft:
I've started working on exactly this during this weekend. I have so far succeeded in creating service that runs in the background and makes the upper left button a "HOME" button - meaning it shows the home activity of your choice rather than the built in menu like the n button. I'll be glad to give more technical details on what I have learned so far (when I have time, probably next weekend).

In the mean time, I would like input from other users as to some specifics on how it should work.

Here is my current vision:

- Have option to start the service manually or automatically start at boot (currently hard coded to start a boot)

- The keylayout files can remain untouched so that they still work properly for the stock applications

- the service will be aware of what Activity is in the foreground and remap purpose the buttons accordingly.

- there will be a settings Activity that lets you choose the functionality of each button on a per application basis

- the choices will to be to broadcast an Intent or to create a virtual key press (for example, my "HOME" button does not actually cause a HOME key press, but broadcasts a act...MAIN cat...HOME intent, my next experiment will be to send Vol Up/Down keys when Kindle app is running)

And this is slightly off topic, but I would like put this on sourceforge or google so that others can contribute and have easy access to it. I've never done that before, so advice on this would be appreciated.
[Nook Touch Android Development] DenisTheMenace:
May I suggest github? git is much more sophisticated than CVS/SVN and their clones.

I basically agree with the app functionality. May be I will take part in implementation (I wish there will be ~36-48 hours in a day :) )
[Nook Touch Android Development] mycr0ft:
Thanks for the advice. github looks promising.

Anyone interested can have a look:

https://github.com/mycr0ft/nook-touch-button-service

I've run into a bit of a problem with simulating a key press. The android developers have not made it easy (which is good for device security).

- I have tried Instrumentation.sendKey..., but that only works withing the same application. Even with the INJECT_EVENT permission, you cannot inject events into other applications (unless they are signed by the same packager). Repackaging every single app that you load does not sound like a good option.

- I have tried using the 'sendevent' shell command. This appears to be limited to only duplicating scan codes keys that actually exist.

- I am currently trying to compile uinput driver (available in the source code download from bn) and load it using insmod. I am stuck here for the time being because I can't figure out how to get it to compile to the right kernel version (version magic mismatch in dmesg)
[Nook Touch Android Development] mdall:
I think you will need root to inject a key event in an other app

You can look at the SoftKeys source code (here), it may help you.

In the past, SoftKeys used a script called "input" to inject events (according to http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10497165&postcount=309) but now it seems that it uses something else ...
[Nook Touch Android Development] mycr0ft:
mdall, thanks very much. this is very useful information.

Droid Comic Viewer

I think also Droid Comic Viewer would benefit from hardware buttons support.

It's a nice little comic reader app supporting all relevant formats (CBR, CBZ, ACV & image formats). Animations can be disabled and there's no dependency with touchscreen interface (it can be entirely operated with button actions). This would make it perfect for an e-ink screen.

I sent an email to the devs today, let's hope they get back to us!
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
Droid comic viewer is quite good, and allows using volume buttons for going to next / previous page.

But what I don't get is how can I convert volume buttons into nook's physical buttons? Do I have to change a file for that (keybinding)? What am I supposed to do? Can anyone show me what to do?

As for Droid Comic Viewer, you can map the volume_up and volume_down buttons for changing pages, and I use an inverted volume (down for next page and up for previous page) without "changing" my original setup - upper buttons for volume up and lower buttons for volume down.
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
By the way, is there any pdf reader that accepts volume buttons for next/previous page? Couldn't find this usage on Repligo and EzPDF reader.

Preferably one that accepts also text highlighting and searchable notes.

Update: Ezpdf reader does change page with volume buttons, and allows highlighting and adding notes to the file. Really great.

So for reading I use:

Droid comic viewer: cbz format is better

Aldiko: for epub files and some quick pdf (not for my master's degree)

ezpdf reader: for pdf with annotation
