:confused::confused::confused:

Both this and the original howto are nice pieces of WTH.

- Uninstall Swype if (mis)installed. No need to uninstall the installer.

- Re-run the Swype instaler.

- Follow the instructions, it will download, install and license Swype and tell you how to enable it. You need to register yourself at http://beta.swype.com/android/create/ so that you have the credentials available that you will be asked to provide during the process.

- Done, installed, profit!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nd4spdbh:
yes you can go with the beta, but like stated unless the build.prop says US for the region, the beta swype will error out opon boot of the phone.

also the latest beta has no option to cancel the word suggestion incase you completely fuggered up a swype, unlike in the old word suggestion popup, where u could just hit the x and try again... you now have to hold delete which takes much more time, then swype again.

also neither of the howto's above combine the knowledge of both.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] han-shinbi:
Hi I do mines in a different way. What I do is take all the necessary files and place them in the rom file itself before flashing. You can do this by extracting via 7zip and repacking after.

In regards to the build prop, just open it up in notepad or what not and change the 2 lines you mentioned. For me, I would change to LG-P509 and LGE.

This is how I got my swype and other tmo apps working. No need for adding swype installer and joining beta.

Do you or can anyone tell me if the HDMI and the usb are operable at the same time? I have an in-car custom set up I'm planning and I think I have it but I need to know if they'll work together. I only need the 30pin to usb cord for charging. The rest of it will run off the HDMI. I could post up a schematic of what I'm trying to do if anyone is interested in helping with the design of the project. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zennit:
I would also like to know if you can use hdmi and usb at the same time. for example you can use an xbox usb pad and hdmi to a tv on the xoom and charge at the same time, could this be done on the 10.1?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Coolhanded:
Is it mhl. if so it switches between depending on which is plugged in. so its either hdmi or usb not both. dumb i know. it can charge at the same time though.

Is there any way to get video-out working on the mesmerize and showcase or is the hardware just not there?
[Samsung Mesmerize] sageDieu:
there is no hardware anywhere on the board that supports video out. if you had the time, money and knowledge to open it up, put the right connectors and hardware, ports, everything and then write drivers to make it work then it could be possible potentially.

I went to transfer a file to my phone when it was on the transfer time was 125min vs 15min when i did it in recovery, I have a class 10 card
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Because there is no overhead dealing with the OS when you are in recovery, its just a straight file transfer. When in the OS, you have many factors that can slow it down.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eeeeeeeeek:
I feel like I've read somewhere that along with the OS overhead that I think it's a driver thing or code issue. Something about being in recovery makes it move faster. With that said, if you get script manager and load up the script used to initiate usb mass storage mode, then you can get speeds in the OS like you would in recovery. I know you can get script manager in the market, but I don't know where you would pull the script from, I'm sure it's somewhere on xda. Hope that helps clarify a bit.

Yes, this is true. CM7 is ridiculously slow. You can download an app called multi-mount, I think...

It's in the market and is supposed to remedy the issue.

does it work for 10.1 WIFI only version?
[HTC Sensation] Android_Guy:
Will keep this short and sweet...

I average 300 - 350K/sec over the mobile network normally...NEVER higher.

When I use pdaNet on the laptop, I get speeds of up to 600K/sec...why is this?:confused: Sometimes it will back down to the normal "max" of 350, kinda like its being throttled, but then boosts back up to unreachable speeds on the phone...WTF?

also

At my college, the wifi is amazing. I had gotten up to 3Mb/sec with G2 and G2x.

With sensation, I get 300K/sec...never more...tho TONS of bandwidth is available...again, WTF?

Sorry if this is n00b-ish, but I really dont get it, esp with the mobile network being faster when shared on the laptop. I never hit the 5 Gig cap yet, so that's not it.

Any insight on these mysteries?
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
The Sensation has a data latency issue and T-Mobile is aware of this. In the mean time, try this. It helped me, but I have to do it every once in awhile.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tigris67:
So you all know the big things Touchwiz updates, but here's all the lil' stuff they don't advertise. I was fortunate enough to visit the event and grab a T-shirt. Basically a lot of the stock apps are kind of revamped.

The video player now makes smaller videos full screen, it has the option to make your video look warm, cool, or normal, and even bookmark spots while you're watching.

The Click sound when closing the tablet sounds different, a lot cleaner and realistic.

They've added a file browser so no need to use a 3rd party one.

World Clock, a 3D globe world clock that you can literally spin and see dark and light sides of the world, pretty cool.

The screen, when held upside down, will no longer go black, and turn back on upside down, it will now rotate 180 just like its ipad bretheren...

Thats the Jist of what I can remember.

One question I had and was wondering if anyone could answer, is that

they've added an option in the wireless tab labeled, Kies via Wifi. I loaded up Kies on my macintosh, and clicked that option, it scans my wifi but never recognizes any devices. anything I should know on how to get that to work?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 5thElement:
The included file manager is great. It far better than the junk you see in the market.

Also they added a great task/RAM manager app in the mini bar.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AnyMal:
I am wondering if it's similar to Kies Air? If that's the case you won't need Kies installed on your Mac since all communication takes place within desktop browser. Simply launch the app on your device and it will give you a URL to enter into your desktop browser. It really is a very cool app :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] thatdude90210:
Was "quick controls" in the webbrowser added by the Touchwiz update? I don't remember seeing it before. It's in the browser settings, under labs, you can then use the browser in fullscreen, hiding the tab bar and the url bar. The browser is then controlled by swiping from either side. Here's a screen:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tigris67:
Naw Dude, that looks new
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 5thElement:
Yes this is a touchwiz update.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tigris67:
Sadly I don't think thats what it is,

- it says "Wi-Fi Devices on [your wireless network's name]

- then it will Load a bit and eventually say "No Devices"
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GrimDefamation:
This is not a touchwiz update. It was from the minor update a few days ago that included the videos and stuff. I have the quick controls feature and im not on touchwiz
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jeandujardin01:
oh really does it include:

- LAN folder browsing/streaming

- FTP

- ZIP files management

- ect

like ES File Explorer ?

you should really stop with your half trolling/lying
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tigris67:
Wow, the name calling is uncalled for sir.

I don't think it does. So thanks for correcting me and pointing that out. I guess 3rd party file browsers do still have a place.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] capufo:
Bro I know there are a few people that just post just for the heck of it, but I don't think its nice to go naming people like that. Anyway I can't wait to see the updates for myself.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 5thElement:
You must be kidding. We are talking about file manager for the tablet not a network file manager. Quite funny. Also, ES File Manager is a VERY crude app and the UI is not optimized for tablets. Its a pain to use. On the other hand the file manager that comes with TouchWiz is fully designed for the tablet, its VERY intuitive, very easy to use, and has a FAR superior UI and navigation. You must be kidding because no logical person would have posted what you did.

A cool feature on touchwiz file explorer is the ability to drag and drop files :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] deppeler:
I wonder why all of us didn't get the google video update?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 5thElement:
I was just going to mention this. If you use ES File Explorer you have to cut and paste to this stupid, crude TAB. Then from this stupid tab you copy to the locations you want. ES File Explorer is such a crude painful app to use.

IMO jeandujardin01 is just trolling. Nobody with any logic would post something like that and be serious.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] akarol:
How so? ES File Explorer is lightyears ahead. Especially with the fact that you can manipulate the files with root access (i.e. copy/delete files in the system/app folder). Not to mention the tons of other options it provides over the basic File Manager.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 5thElement:
Oh ya the stupid tab where you are forced to copy file to is "lightyears ahead". The UI is crude to the extreme and not designed for tablets, no drag and drop feature is pathetic.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lgitton:
This feature is part of Android Honeycomb, i got it since the first day on my acer Iconia A500...and i missed it a lot when i got my Gtab...now that it is back...i'm very happy, but really i think it was due to a bad stock browser on gtab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dhdhk:
I find the interface faster and smoother in general, eg swiping between home screens.

The new included swype is much better than the beta I was using. Really fast.

Some cool labs stuff in the browser with full screen browsing and side of screen gestures.

Seems great so far. Tw not very intrusive I must say
[HTC EVO 3D] tjlawson09:
I'm trying to run a custom boot animation and down animation with sound on my evo 3d. I changed the code using eclipse in the default.xml file to this <BootConfiguration>

<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" />

</BootConfiguration>

<ShutdownConfiguration>

<ShutdownAnimation image_png="/system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/android_out.mp3" image="" fps="15" />

</ShutdownConfiguration>

there was no "audio=" in the code before so thats what i changed. i had the animation running fine before but now all i get is the factory android animation. do i have to do something more with this default.xml file? what i did was edit,save, adb remount, and adb push to system/CID. Do i have to get this signed or something? idk this is the most advanced stuff ive done so i'm kinda stuck. any help would be appreciated. thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Just use this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1197748

Then put your animation and sounds in /data/local and name it bootanimation.zip and the sound file android_audio.mp3.
[HTC EVO 3D] tjlawson09:
Yes i did see your thread thank you. I was just curious why the way i tried it wouldn't work. not trying to steal your work since i used your thread as a basis. just trying to learn a lil more that's all.
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Oh, sorry, you can just use notepad++ to edit xml files they are basically text files.

You have to make sure the paths are right and your animation names are the same as your path.

I would recommend just using root explorer to move your animations and editing the xml file. It's easier to use imo.

I also double check it by going back to the file after saving it to be sure it stuck.

It loads the default htc animation when it cant load the animation in the specified path, could be in the xml, corrupted animation,or no animation there. And i think its better to move them outside of /system for permissions. You can move them anywhere except the sdcard.
[HTC EVO 3D] tjlawson09:
thank you. i can't wait to get this boot animation just right. i mean with the timing and everything. it's gonna be fckin sick! and i can't wait to put it up here on xda. now i just gotta cut out about 200 frames and i'll be good lol and rename the ones that are left...yay.

Anyone else having problems updating apps via the new market?
[HTC EVO 3D] drivenapollo:
I thought I was. Not sure if this is normal but my version of the market only downloads 1 app at a time. I thought it wasn't working when I lined up a bunch, but that's just normal now I guess. Is that the problem your having?
[HTC EVO 3D] Mrdiaz09:
Well mine says there is an update available but when I click into the app to update the only options given are open and uninstall
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
It looks like they updating one app at the time like iPhone been doing for a while to make sure there is not problems at all, myself I went back to the old market it works great is just missing some items that the new one has

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Try this:

Open market. Menu << My apps.

Where it shows the apps that need updated, click on the refresh icon that has # apps next to it

That's how I did it, and it worked.

It still only does one at a time though.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mrdiaz09:
No refresh button next to number of apps. I think I'm just going back to old market
[HTC EVO 3D] AurorAllure:
I have that exact problem too mrdiaz. It says afn update is available but when I actually click on it to update there was no option to update. I woyld just wait a couple days though then it would eventually let me update it.

So back on the evo days we used to have the droid x keyboard and it was great, multitouch, big keys and a lot diferent colors, now the photon 4G is out is there anyway to port it, is the same as the droid x just optimize for qHD and gingerbread, thanks in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] anti-up:
I'd live to see the photon drop down menu too, its pretty bad ass

SHOTS FIRED!!! From 3 Dimensions!
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Mm i play with my friends and after a while became annoying it looks cool on reviews tho, the only part I did like is how to clear notifications ala iPhone lol

But it will get ported tho I'm pretty sure

Yeah nut different Res than the photon
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
I never going one for gingerbread on of evo so that's why I'm requesting it I might contact some developers to see if we can port it and i could make the themes

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P

Bump

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P

We talking about the keyboard you know that right? Is really fluid and multitouch It feels faster then HTC keyboard :)

Btw guys I found this keyboard in the market they have a free version and a pay one it reminds me a lot at the Droid x keyboard and it works nice try it out

It has a pay version as well with themes :)

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JamesD31:
I hope this is the correct spot to post this.

OK, so I am starting to get a hang of building Android apps, well at least as much a programmer can after a few days - I am proud of what I have learned so far.

Anyways, I want to force login on the main activity - this I am doing by fetching a SharedPrefernece and than checking if that piece of information is null and than getting a PopupWindow which holds the "login" fields and options.

This PopupWindow has a Flipper inside, which is fine and I got working fine when the certain options are choosen.

I am having problems displaying this PopupWindow to just be the size of the content (wrap_content) as when I set the PopupWindow.setAtLocation()

Now, here is what I have been trying to do to get the size of the popup - as mentioned a few times on here:

popup.measure(View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
final PopupWindow pw = new PopupWindow(popup,popup.getMeasuredHeight(),popup.getMeasuredWidth(), true);

Note that popup is the inflator of the actual layout of the Popup, pw is the actual PopupWindow object.

Now, I want to get the actual size of just the popup window (so that way it isn't streched out over the page, but rather just in the center looking like a normal popup should.

Also, with the ViewFlipper. I want it to update the size of the popup when it switch pages (so the page should be sizing up and down per page) is there a way to make this work as well? I tried pw.update() but that didn't work out very well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JamesD31:
BUMP, anyone have any clue what I'm talking about?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sl1pst3r:
Sorry

I believe only one of the devs can help you on this one :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JamesD31:
Well, I figured it out so far with the PopupWindow.

LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) PartyCentral.this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
final View popup = inflater.inflate(R.layout.login, (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.login));
final PopupWindow pw = new PopupWindow(popup, 0, 0, true);
pw.setAnimationStyle(android.R.anim.fade_in);

/** AFTER MAIN VIEW IS LOADED **/
popup.measure(View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(findViewById(R.id.main).getWidth(), View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST), View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
pw.setWidth(popup.getMeasuredWidth());
pw.setHeight(popup.getMeasuredHeight());
pw.showAtLocation(findViewById(R.id.main), Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);

I hope this solves everyone's problems with PopupWindow!

Also, I am still trying to work on updating the height of a ViewFlipper when it changes.

Hello,

by a rediculous accident I forgot my HTC Diamond in the pocket of my jeans when running the laundry :-(

Afterwards, I opened the cover, took out the battery and let the phone dry out for 2 days. Now I've put it back together, and connected it to the charger. The "ring" is flashing, so the battery is charging but the phone itself is not starting and the display remains completely black, not even the vibration kick on starting...

Is there anything I could do? Or perhaps there is a chance to get out some photos I have shot earlier, would also be something...
