Check dr fosters & smith.com (online just google it cuz i forget the exact address) they have a small animal section. Also get them the correct type of bedding for the cage... Some small animals can be sensitive to certain oils in certain bedding,(like cedar).

I'll check em out, thanks. With bedding, don't think I have to worry too much, they sleep in pouches.
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
True. but don't they still need something to line the cage with? "Bedding" was the only thing I could think to call it. Birds sleep on perches but still need "bedding" (or something to line their cages with) Paper is no good for small animals because of the ink... They still need some type of material to absorb droppings and to just scratch around in.... :)
[Off-topic] boborone:
:rolleyes: Oh yeah, ok. He has a tray like a bird cage under grating that droppings and urine fall through. My coworker had a pillow case over half of the bottom cause she put a small plate with food on it at night. In the cage she gave me, he has two other food dishes and a water bottle. There is the house (pouch), a couple bird dowels for climbing and that's it. Found a couple cages on amazon that I want to get, but they are pretty expensive. I'm gonna look around on craigslist to find something for cheaper. What he is in now is kinda small.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hal.jordan:
I assume you mean touchwiz. Tw requires samsung api. If your rom is based off the stock rom, it should work. Otherwise you just need to find a suitable replacement. I prefer Launcher Pro, but there are several choices.

Evening guys

I was wondering if there was a way to bind the android keyboard to its own home screen so that you are ready to text just by flicking the page (messag centre opens and keyboard pops up), as we all know the feature is on the iphone but thought it would be pretty dam awesome to have it on android. Can it be done?

Sorry if this has been asked before i had no time for a proper search, off to meet the wife from work lol.

Thanks in advance

Lol, i know... i know dam iphone, i dont like them at all tbh, i just like that idea of skipping to a page to start composing a message, and im surprised it hasnt been done yet.

I myself havent the first clue about anything like that, hell im lucky i managed to get my phone rooted by myself the other day lol, i just love android and its customization. :D

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] grem323:
Hi

I recently bought a keyboard dock ECR-K10D for my tab.The keyboard works fine.Except when i use it for Thinkfree Office.I am able to use it to create new documents & type accordingly. However, when i try to create a new spreadsheet & type in it there's no input registered, i have to tap the screen & then only the characters are registered as an input. I thought it was a software issue but the touch type keyboard works fine onscreen.the "issue" happens only when I dock the tab in the keyboard dock. Anyone out there facing anything similar or shud i try another office app?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] cyberjock045:
I just picked up that keyboard as well a few days ago. Only spent about 20min on it thus far. Seem to work fine as far as nav around the home screens and menu. Only tried a note app for a moment to try out the typing and it was perfect. My keyboard is at work, so tomarrow I will try it out in a speadsheet of thinkfree. I will get back to you then.

I did see one issue. Some times when I undock from the keyboard, and then redock a few minutes later, the keyboard does not want to work. It makes the sound as if has docked, but nothing. I can undock and redock once or twice to get it back working. My settings are set to the keyboard and not Swipe. (just like the manual recomended) No biggie just can be a hassel. Have you run in to this?(or has anyone else that may be reading?)
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] cyberjock045:
Grem,

Your 100% correct. I comfirm that the keyboard does not work for inputting data in cells of the spreadsheet program of Thinkfree. The word processor program of Thinkfree works great with the keyboard from what I can tell.

Well, hopefully we will not run in to this very often with other apps.

3. Made 1000 mb of sdcard to ext3.

4. reboot and then Apply zip which was the zip in the thread - a2sd patch.

5. Starting gscript to see if Dalvik cache has been moved and it says I can save 180 mb if I fix a2sd.

Anyone know where i'm doing wrong or has the leedroid with a2sd who could guide me?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p1yke:
I have recently S-Off my phone which after much reading was a 5 min job, simply upload a rooted stock and then run Alpharev; perfect. Once I rebooted I have also included the Alpharev recovery but I am not having great sucess with this and am worried about bricking.

When I flash a new ROM I clear the directories as usual and on one accasion Leedroid was flashed and once complete the only thing I could do was take the battery out, whilst on the old CWM it allowed me to reboot from the menu. Second time I tried to install insert coin and it simply said starting to flash and then nothing happened so after 5 minutes I took out the battery. Tried to flash ccwm 3.0.0.5 but CID is not recognised (Done via PB99zip or whatever the extension is). My question is can i flash roms by fake flashing cwm and then install the roms or will this brick the phone.

Any help from you chaps would be great, am I using Alphrev recovery incorrecty?

Thanks in advance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swimon:
Here's an idea:

Since you went S-off, maybe you have changed your HBOOT aswell?

And are now trying to flash ROMs for the wrong HBOOT?

Also you could just flash another recovery, since you 're S-off now, it's easy, just one fastboot command needed. Look around on the forums for that.

[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Well, this is sure an interesting email that I just received back from LG's support team, when asked about the kernel sources.

The rep seems to know what I'm asking for-- but for whatever reason denies my request (which is reasonable by the GPL).

Anyway, full email here:

Hmm, should I quote the GPL back to them, or try asking nicely again?
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Yeah, that's an invalid response if the code is GPLed.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
I'm not quite sure why or how they think they can get away with that, considering the source for all their other phones is available here: http://www.lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource.jsp

Even the tmobile g2x has it's sources posted...

What I wonder is if they're just saying that _this_ kernel's sources won't be posted.

Maybe they're embarassed? Hope not, because I demand this kernel's source!
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
They may be protecting Microsoft's interests (they think) or they had a side agreement with Netflix. Either way, they can't deny a derivative work. It doesn't work that way. (at least I think? I haven't read the most recent GPL in a while...lol)
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
As far as my understanding of the GPL, any code they modify that is released as GPL must be released as GPL also.

So, they (CodeAurora) modified Linux-2.6.32.9, which is GPL, hence they must release any modifications.

Where it gets grey is in terms of proprietary modules. However, if it's compiled into the kernel, I understand that it must also be released as source also. The only way to avoid that is to use module loading and taint the kernel, which then does some other license-protecting stuff.

Damn, the GPL is complicated.

EDIT: I'm in LG Live Chat right now asking...
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Yeah, it gets more so every year, and depending on what version of GPL is in use depends on what the specifics are. I'd have to say even if their module loading taints the kernel, they should be able to (read: must) release the modified source prior to the dirty side mods.
[LG Revolution] bwhxeon:
if they are anything like samsung, they will sit on it for as long as possible.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
LG Chat:

Well, maybe the person in the email was misinformed, or just plain ol confused...
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Or... the current rep is stalling? Why would there be a delay? Shouldn't the GPLed kernel be available immediately at request?

I'm going to assume it won't be too long before they release 2.3 for this phone.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Me too.

To give LG some benefit of the doubt, it is possible they just don't want to put the work into it, considering they may have something brand new around the corner.

But-- what I worry about is OTA locking down the phone.... hence my want/need for sources, just in case.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Yes, and I've seen 2.3 turn otherwise perfectly good phones into piles of poo, so I definitely want a way back if that happens here. Resource requirements and overall overhead seems to increase 10 fold on 2.3
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Come to think of it... I just realized I should be really worried for the next OTA update...

Now, those of us with clockwork need not worry, since it just will say "invalid signature" when LG's updates try to install (since clockwork is signed with the testkeys from cyanogenmod). Once it says "invalid signature" you'd just click "reboot now" and grab the update file from /cache .

But still... the unknown is killing me!
[LG Revolution] bwhxeon:
Isn't that exactly what happend with the thunderbolt?
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Well, we can work on the assumption that it's never coming... because you know how Verizon is about releasing updates.

However, in the meantime LG needs to cough up the goods per legal requirement. It could all be part of a greater conspiracy, ha! Release the next batch of goods and destroy what had been previously done, THEN release the source code to the first kernel.
[LG Revolution] MXFrodo195:
So in other words when we get 2.3 they'll unsuspectingly give us everything we need for custom roms and kernels once one of us extracts it from the cache...

Little Buddy Sr.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Not likely... They'll release the source for 2.2 to the public when 2.3 gets pushed. We're helping them find all the holes they left in 2.2.
[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
I guess the phones work differently. I have only experienced OTAs on the original droid. In that phone's case; once you got the OTA and the phone rebooted, it would reboot to clockwork. If you wanted to apply the OTA you just selected "Update from SD" (or something like that). If you didn't you just rebooted the phone. Now granted that it will keep on bugging you that you don't have the latest until you trick it by changing the signature (on one of the prop files I believe it was - not sure if it still works that way).
[LG Revolution] juicehead9:
Someone please let me know what I need to say over live chat or by email ill send or talk with them. Nothing to lose and alot to gain. And several cold beverages of my choice will help. I'm just not in the know on open sorce code etc.... I want to help.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
From the GPL:

As long as they hold out, they are in violation of the GPL. It should be noted, however, that they aren't the only ones in the Android world doing this. It has been the discussion hot topic for a lot of Android device manufacturers.

It could all be nothing, and they may not have "gotten around to it" yet. They have released all their previous and current works. It does question why this phone is on hold, and I'd venture to guess (but could be completely wrong) that it revolves around Microsoft protecting their digs in this machine.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
The full thing is here if you want to review it...

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
That's what I worry about... right now, unless I manage to find fastboot access, or a way to make our own .tot files, if they patch the gingerbreak/rageagainsthecage/psneuter exploits, we're screwed for root unless you downgrade the ROM.

It will be the same way here too-- phone will reboot into clockwork, at which point you can just select wipe cache and reboot. (Or you could be an all-around excellent person and grab the update file from your phone and send it to me :) )

For now, I'd just give it a little time. According to birdman and majorpay, they've got 30 days to give the source. Birdman says they've got about 3 more days left before the 30 day limit is up.

I don't want to look like the pushy "give it to me now!" programmer to LG, so I'll just take a back seat for a few days and see what happens.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Honestly, the reason for the hesitation by LG may be simply due to lack of interest, so showing this interest may have been a really good move in the right direction. This was definitely the underdog that received very little recognition or attention. It's getting some air time in commercials now, but for the most part, it's been swept under the rug.

Announcing you have Microsoft on an Android phone, however, is going to immediately douse the interest of most people in the Android world initially.
[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
Consider it done...
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
so whats the latest on this? Has the 30 days past yet and are we able to pressure LG for the Kernel now? I'd really like to see CM7 or other development started for this.. I only wish I knew the language or programming to help out.
[LG Revolution] wrsg:
this is a lesson to us, to not buy an android phone *until* they release the source. vote with your monies. we really only have ourselves to blame when we buy from unethical companies that pull **** like this.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
I don't think they're being unethical, I figure they have Gingerbread around the corner and don't want to put the work into cleaning up the source code to an old release.

I have a feeling that they'll release source code a few weeks prior or after the release of Gingerbread for this phone.

With that said, I think we may not _need_ kernel source for getting Gingerbread on here now :)
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
LG Response:

OK, so here's the problem:

On multiple attempts between myself and Cubed, this is the response we are getting. Trying to talk to someone from customer service gives you a representative who knows absolutely nothing, so they have to go to someone above them to come up with the answer.

They return with this (or similar to) non-responsive responsive after a few days later, or directly over the phone.

So in case we aren't all on the same page here, the problem with this response is they are violating their licensing agreement per the GPL.

How do you get a company to honor their licensing agreement? I am guessing, that unless they do it of their own volition, it would take legal action, but at this point, I realize there is a barrier between us and the actual responsible parties.

Anyone have any thoughts? Maybe a strongly worded letter from a lawyer might pick them up? Legally speaking, they have to comply, but who are the interested parties who can actually FORCE them to honor their license?

I'd bet (as this has proven true in the past with other companies), that a bad publicity hailstorm for not honoring the GPL, along the same chains that announced root and cwm for this device, would perk some ears up. But will it be enough for LG?
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
you threaten them with legal action in a civil manner.

"Dear LG Electronics,

Per the GPL, LG Electronics must release the source code 30 days after.... bla bla bla, It has now been ?? many days past said date and we the general public now hold LG Electronics in violation of the GPL in which they must abide. We request you release the source code in compliance with the GPL or we the public will consider legal means in obtaining the source code in compliance with the GPL."

something like that.. eh?

Guest: On another note, is there any timeline for a Gingerbread 2.3 OS update for the LG VS910

Cristina: There is not a release date available, but developers are working on it.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
The response will be "The source is not available, but we can give you the Android version build number."

It's too bad we can't respond to the developers with a copy of the GPL, and explain to them their violation. I don't think they understand that they are in direct violation of their licensing agreement (or at least I would like to think they don't understand this).
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Here's an interesting thought:

I always assumed that the source code for Android was covered under the GPL. It's not. It's covered under the Apache 2 license, and as such, it doesn't appear that the requirement to release source is as prominent as it is in the GPL.

If all this is true, unless pushed, this means that technically, no one has to release their source. Google has been pulling this since HC and has been refusing to release their source. When the license holder does this, what kind of an example does it set to other companies?

I have a baaad feeling about this, and suddenly feel a little sick :(.
