[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelwyn2:
Hi all. My first post here after being a lurker for a long time.

This question is rather silly, but I'm wondering if it's normal or not. Since receiving my Tab 10.1, I noticed the startup sound is very quiet despite the system volume being at full. I've tried listening to the actual sound file after rooting it and it plays fine at a loud volume (1_Power_on.ogg under system/etc).

Most people seem to hate the startup sound and delete the file on their phones, but I'd actually like to have it play loud. I have the same sound on my Galaxy S II phone and I've tried coping it over, but it still plays quiet. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the file at all. Are all tabs behaving this way or is it just mine?

Also, I noticed a PowerOff.ogg sound under system/media/audio/ui, but it does not seem to play at all. Similarly on my phone, the Shutdown.ogg file does not play either. I remember on my old Galaxy S (not II) the shutdown file would play on Froyo and Eclair, but after the Gingerbread update it never played anymore.

So does anyone have any idea on what I can do with this trivial issue? FYI I am running Honeycomb 3.1 with the Touchwiz update. Build number HMJ37.UEKME P7510UEKME. The update added a shutdown animation, but no sound.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TECK:
It does the same thing to me on a vanilla 3.1 ROM. I think the startup sound is set to play at a constant volume, no matter what.

the Sense 3.5 has been made available from Bliss

Its time to port it to DZ/G2..

Dev's plzzzzz..
[G2 and Desire Z General] evilcuber:
Sense 3.5 uses more memory than sense 3.0. If virtuous unity only has like 100mb of free ram then sense 3.5 will have even less which will make our phones extremely slow. Other devices such as dhd can handle it better as the have more onboard ram
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
I agree. Pretty sure Sense 3.0 is pushing the limits of the G2/DZ hardware already. Not enough ROM, not enough RAM, and a 800mhz stock CPU.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Innocent Devil:
But htc bliss is 800mhz and 512ram device. And i read sense 3.5 is even lighter and polished than sense 3.
[G2 and Desire Z General] barclays:
Agree, uglier, too
[G2 and Desire Z General] Daiskei:
I agree, getting this ported would be amazing! The Bliss does sport 512mb ram and an 800mhz single core processor. I believe this may be a great chance at Sense for our phones.
[G2 and Desire Z General] zaichik:
so we are waiting for the port then. Someone from Desire HD port thread said that it works smoother than sense 3.0.
[G2 and Desire Z General] miHah:
This is actualy not true. Sense 3.0 on DHD is slower and uses more ram, as i've been checking it out on my dhd. Sense 3.5 seems to be lighter and smoother than anything else. I think 3.5 is an attempt from htc to make faster UI for more devices, since the sense 3.0 can only be originally supported by 3 devices. So, why should HTC stick to those 3 devices and stop supporting over 9000 older devices? And since Android Phones will now HAVE TO BE UPDATED with latest android for 18months since they hit the market, it is the logical move for HTC to make better, wider supported UI for more devices. Also, since 3.5 is official, u'll notice that app resizing will no longer be a problem since 3.5 detects everyhting by itself.

So, yet again, a smart move HTC did.

HTC Sense 3.5 = updated 3.0 UI for all HTC devices which will have more support and better performance

HTC Sense 3.0 = HTC UI for devices with at least dual core high end devices (HTC Sensation/EVO 3D/..)

Also, this 3.5 version is still testing-key version from HTC, so don't expect its the final release since theme is ugly and chicky. There is a theme on HTC Hub that is a bit better, but not fully supported yet. Still missing some changes in 3.5 feautures.

SIGNED!
[G2 and Desire Z General] evilcuber:
From the htc bliss ROM leak on youtube all showed that sense 3.5 uses more ram than sense 3.0
[G2 and Desire Z General] proxuser:
porting would not hard to g2 because i port sometimes something from here to desire s and they work good with little issues.

i can help to port, if someone want to test it. just mail me msn adress and we can talk about..
[G2 and Desire Z General] barclays:
I think it's not likely that HTC will make an update for older devices but us here making a port would be nice :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] proxuser:
has anyone tried "virtuous_unity-2.35.0.zip" g2 files to porting this rom. should work i think. here is tutorial for this

So Some file removals need to be done, after that it may work.

RCMix3D_Bliss_v1.2 boots when you copy over files from unity (just the ones from \devices\vision except \devices\vision\system\lib\libui.so ) and adjust build.prop. But it lags a lot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Daiskei:
I see, alrighty. Yeah, I was following that port any sense rom guide thing... I figured it probably wouldn't work as Sense 3.5 is brand new but I did all the files from unity, not just the files from devices so maybe that's why.

Eh, back to the drawing board.

People say Sense 3.5 is ugly, what's the point then? I need to google for some pics... wouldn't it make more sense to go back to Sense 2.5 since Desire Z doesn't handle 3.0 well? Wouldn't 2.5 look better than 3.5?
[G2 and Desire Z General] doubleluckstur:
Looks like lots of people complaining about ram... strange.. on my version, ram is good (100MB+). For sense, its pretty amazing. Animations are faster than 3.0, although wifi is annoying. Using a static IP address may work.. not tested it yet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] zFr3eak:
i would need a tester for my port ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] schriss:
I also have 100 MB ram free and for some reason system always tries to have that free, so you run something, it will kill something else rather that using this available 100 MB.
[G2 and Desire Z General] zFr3eak:
the problem you have is that the launcher get droped out of ram when it has to less ram. i know how to fix this. i will do it in my port then....
[G2 and Desire Z General] schriss:
I have downloaded a tool from marketplace to tweak internal memory manager and applied a preset and my free RAM goes down to 60 MB now and more apps stay in memory (FireFox Nightly is what I needed to stay but its using quite a lot of ram).

That's what I was saying, I don't think I've ever gotten an invite, but it just let me sign in. This was a while back, so I don't know if it was open to everyone or if I'm just special. After signing in with my Google account, I had to answer some questions, and voila - Google + account. I do remember that directly after signing in, I got a notification that this guy I went to NC State with added me or whatever, so maybe he sent me an invitation or something?

Unless you're saying that you want an invite? I don't think that's what you're saying, but it's late and I'm braindead from work. I tend to get delirious when I haven't slept :P

There are some aspects of it that look like Facebook.

However, there are some aspects of Facebook that looked like Myspace.

All websites of social networking nature have similar aspects.

In fact, most websites in general have similar aspects.

There are plenty of things about Google+ that make it quite different.

Thanks matty for clearing that up. I'm actually a web designer/programmer and I get what you're saying by every social network looking alike. My friend told me that the page layout looked too identical to Facebook. That's why I would imagine mark not being too happy about it. Layout wise, Facebook didn't look like MySpace.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
It does have a similar layout, that's for sure.

But that is understandable.

The Facebook design is a pretty good one, it's also "familiar"

Google+ has to be familiar but better if it wants to compete with Facebook, unfortunately.

So my phone is pulling the wrong pics from facebook and assigning them to the wrong contact causing me a lot of confusion lol

Is there anyway to force it to redownload pics? When I go into edit contact, the wrong picture comes up as the "Facebook for HTC Sense" option so it's the htc facebook module messing this up
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
There was a person in my ROM thread who wasn't able to get their contact pictures to appear. A solution was posted and they thanked so I assume it worked for them. The solution:

If that doesn't work, then maybe wiping the data/data directory for the application which is having the sync'n problems will cause it to perform a fresh sync and should hopefully fix the mismatch issue.

Let us know! Hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
I suggest removing all syncronizing from HTC Sense Facebook, and then using "SyncMyPix" app.

It downloads all the pictures from facebook and tries to link the correct friend with the correct contact, but you can also manually edit which friend is linked to which contact in your address book.

When you've done that, it simply remembers the links and you can re-sync whenever you want to.

I use it, and absolutely love it.

This is actually pretty good. The bubbles one is beautiful, I will keep it on my Nexus.

Two suggestions for you:

-I think it could use some optimization, it starts to lag on high bubble counts.

-Instead of having a lot of Wallpaper entries you could have just one and let the user pick the desired style from the settings menu. I think this would be better.
[Android Apps and Games] Tricky-Design:
Awesome wallpaper!!!! :eek:

The one that I really like is the first one. The rest is a bit to fast / crazy, If you can lift the quality of the other wallpapers to the level of the first one you have an awesome wallpaper pack!

I do agree with sakisds, maybe it is better to split the pack into separate wallpapers.

Anyway I like it a lot so thanks for sharing it!

------------------

Do you have an idea how much it does impact battery life?
[Android Apps and Games] Tricky-Design:
I've played around with the bubbles wallpaper a bit more.

When my phone is slide open (keyboard is showing) the wallpaper goes to landscape mode. The bubbles then become oval instead of round.

When the number of bubbles goes up, the animation isn't as smooth as default.

Maybe a fun feature is to enable dynamic bubble size.

[General Questions and Answers] bx19:
Hello all. Pls answer this quick question.

Inspite of being an xda member for a while, i haven't had the knowledge of android development. Im just starting to learn things from now.

So, i think i should learn java (dalvik VM part). Now Im just following a book of developing android apps for noobs. I need to install eclipse and install ADT plugin for eclipse.

Well, im on windows7 ultimate 32bit version. I previously had an ECLIPSE HELIOS VERSION (i think it is eclipse classic 3.6, not sure but it shows eclipse helios on startup). I installed this eclipse helios version. But the problem is i cant install the ADT plugin in any way.

I tried "https://" with no luck. Also tried "http://" with no luck. Also tried "INSTALL FROM ZIP ARCHIVE" with no luck. Also tried this with older ADT zip archives ofcourse with no luck.

The single most error it shows for all these attempts is "Cannot complete the install because one or more required/requested items could not be found."

What do you say. Is the eclipse version having bug with ADT plugin. Or do i need to download another eclipse version. If so please give me the direct file download link for the version you recommend (please since im completely new to this).

[General Questions and Answers] Jades007:
You need to be connected to the internet to installed the required items. I had that error and once I connected to the internet I was fine. But I also had to download the ZIP file because the http-https didn't work for me either.
[General Questions and Answers] gobernador:
I'm having a similar problem. I've downloaded the JDK, Android SDK, and Eclipse indigo. I first tried importing the plugin to classic, and it said "requires plugin org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui". So I went back to Eclipse's site and found a version that included WST. Now it's telling me that it can't find one of the files. I've tried both the https, http, and zip versions. I've scoured developer.android, and there's nothing describing my problem.

I'm trying to get into the Android programming scene, but it seems like the "initiation ceremony" is getting the better of me.

I managed to find a solution to the problem. Rather than installing Indigo, I reverted to a version of Helios, and everything worked perfectly
