Makes a great backup phone (convert to t-mobile prepaid and charge it up for $100 for 1000 minutes which doesn't expire for a year), then load ebook reader apps on it from the market and use it as an ebook (epub, whatever) reader (Aldiko & Foliant).

Also, rooted and using wireless tether apps it becomes a backup internet connection for a computer.

calculator

backup camera

marine compass

gps

weather station

...the list goes on and on....

I purchased a used HTC Dream/G1 for wifi tethering. As a matter of fact I'm using it right now. I am reading and responding to this forum using barnacle and my Dream.

I also plan on upgrading to a custom ROM.

Skip rest of response if you don't want to read a rant and sappy self introduction.

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

Wow, I'm so glad to have found such an active forum where people discuss how to get the most out of there HTC Dream. I was watching a YouTube video posted "3 years ago" showing a sneak preview of the Dream. It is so good it will do every thing you could ever want from a phone. Now it seams many people think the only place for it is in a garbage can, because it's over 2 years old.

I purchased my used Dream from a guy that had a table inside of a car-wash/detailing shop. The phone looks good. I think it's a great deal, because I did not have to get tied to a data contract, I can turn the data plan on and off or switch to a "pay as you go" plan whenever I want. I plan on moving, so regular broadband would not be good.

Up to now, I've been somewhat of a cellphone Luddite. Meaning I don't want to take pictures, read my email or play games on my cell, I just want to call people with it. But ever since I got my phone a week ago, I can't stop playing with it. It is my first smart phone, and I don't care if the Dream is 2 years old, it's great!

I'm general I am opposed to discarding electronics just because they are not the latest and greatest. I use two Linux boxes with a low over-head desktop on them. The more powerful one I purchased about 4.5 years ago. When I get some cash, I can put 4G Ram and a 64bit Duel core AMD on the mobo. I'm sure it will feel like a whole new machine.

I am doing the grunt work before rooting my thunderbolt and I have a problem.

I am running a new iMac on lion. I cannot get my thunderbolt to mount. Have debugging checked, disk drive checked, tried different USB ports all no go. I get the disk popup, click ignore. Still will not mount. Any advice as to what might be the problem?

Thanks in advance. Ed

ps. If I use disk utility I can see the sd card and the phone internal memory but it won't mount. Neither the phone internal memory nor the sd card will show in finder.

[Off-topic] arcticwolf8:
That's what she said.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
Unfortunately, windows won't be compatible with your custom room so you'd have to settle for a dark theme. There is a possibility of using a port though, although it'd really only be a hack job!

Having good people working on the project and design elements will of course be critical. Having a Sparky on hand will help during the build. If you can't find one our friend Babydoll25 may be willing to lend you hers.

[Off-topic] Dirk:
I would only port the room once to be honest. Otherwise the integrity of your build may become compromised. Have you decided on which wallpaper to use in your custom room? Of course, you could use a PaintShop to help with the decor and theme.

Anyway you came to the right place. Nobody wants a cowboy developer working on their custom room after all. You'll find plenty of good ones here, and most are very familiar with kitchens.

[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
Chairogen Mod?
[Off-topic] arcticwolf8:
I prefer MITV
[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Well, basically, the OP wants a custom room for his whole family. I'd suggest that he switch to an organic kernel, not unlike what is being used in the Chairogen Mod, and use the ClockworkMod as a recovery (unless he's in Egypt, then the Amon_RA would function better).

And despite what most people would tell you, Silverlight coming from Windows would not be optimal, as a darker theme would actually save more battery in the long run.

Of course, having root plants will unlock the full potential of this custom room, and you can use apps like Titanium Refrigerator to "save" certain stuff or just to freeze them.

If you are as noob as you say you are, Room Manager would function just well enough for your custom room, although personally I prefer to give my room a boot once and again (it's called re-boot, btw) and go into the clockwork to do it. Much more satisfying to muck around in the cogs and gears :D

Also, you must apply the right wallpaper you risk having your room bricked.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Quick question: Which system app is responsible for "Account & Sync" in settings, at it keeps fc'ing for me?

Eventually i will try to adb push it from another ROM...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
/system/app/AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk.

Cyanogenmod wiki for barbones gives a good overview about the most apps which come with android and what they do:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones

To fix the force close, I suggest to wipe cache and dalvik-cache in recovery. This mostly solves it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Dalvik & cache wipe didnt helped, and looks like this app is not there (atleast not /system/app) are you sure thats the correct app?

I'm not using AOSP ROM.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
One hundred percent sure. I guess you get the force close because the apk is not on your phone any more. ;)

Which rom do you use (according to your sig you use oxygen, which is an aosp rom)? I would say, download the rom's corresponding zip file, extract the AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk and move it with adb to place where it is in the zip file (which should be /system/app).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
CoolSensation 3d v9, i extracted it from v7 (it's not here in v9) and moved it to the /system/app/ with Root Explorer, but still fc's.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
You should update your signature. ;)

Did you reboot after moving it? Otherwise the system does not recognize this move.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Yeah i restarted, no joy. This is really confusing, is it possible coolexe forgot to include it? :D

I'm too lazy to change signature.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
I assume you flashed cm7 version. There one can find "AccountsAndSyncManager.apk" in /sd-ext/app_s (just checked the zip file for v9). Check if it's there. If it's not, download v9 zip file, extract the apk, move it 'back' to /sd-ext/app_s and reboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Fixed it with adb pushing .app from v7, thanks :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
No problem. :) But it would be very nice if you press the thanks to appreciate my help. ;)

[Android Apps and Games] vipaman:
Thanks for the share buddy.... I will try it for sure!!!:D
[Android Apps and Games] Morbo2:
I tried the one the market (2.4.1), and it's really great!

The UI is really intuitive and pretty (3 skins), the integration of lyrics too. The widget has lot of features, display song progression, lyrics too, even on over the homescreen by one click.

Only drawback, the way we browse through the library is unfinished.

If I start looking at an artist, I would like to then see the albums.

For now all the artist's songs get mixed up even with correctly tagged mp3 files.

And it doesn't find as much lyrics as Wikitune or Lyrics app.

There is more info of the 2.5 here : http://mobileplanet-waryam.blogspot.com/2011/08/ttpod-v250-beta-250-android-apk-app.html

[Android Apps and Games] saurabhr2:
I agreee that that there may be some other music player out there with more features. But let me tell you that none of them run as smoothly as this one on a low profile device such as HTC Wildfire with froyo. So its clear that it uses less resources. And while using other music players while changing settings on equaliser the mini second pause is clearly evident on a low profile phone. But TT-pod solves that for me. Hence for me its the best and more importantly you allhave to agree that none of the players are visually so appealing as this one even the MIUI player

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozza2k11:
Well at least its in the right section and not in general. Suppose its better than nothing :D

You cannot root the r800x normally like the rest of us (since verizon patched the gingerbreak loophole in 2.3.2 before they released it). See the [How-to] R800x Root thread since you will need to unlock your bootloader to be able to root.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typikal82:
If you need translation to "me not think good" english, look here after looking at the first posted link
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryocoon:
I know it is just easier to post, but really, do look through the forums a little (try search) to see if something comes up before posting.

The issue with the R800x (CDMA Verizon version of the SonyEricsson Xperia Play) is that Verizon subtly changed around a few bits of the inner workings on the ROM prior to release in order to close the GingerBreak exploit hole. We still have not found a suitable exploit to root without unlocking the bootloader.

Currently in order to root, you must unlock your bootloader and then flash in a "su" binary and a SuperUser app. Mind you, the SE method of unlocking bootloaders will _WIPE_ your phone. No exclusions. Originally SE bowed to Verizon pressure and would not release codes or methods for unlocking bootloaders for the CDMA variant (r800X). However, Mills and Asher (wonderful folks, those) did a bit of handy-work and pulled how to convert our CDMA MEID into an unlock code (much like how GSM IMEI can be converted into one).

Luckily they have already found ways to re-lock the bootloader as well for the GSM variant. It may work for the CDMA, but not sure yet. I don't know of anybody testing it out.

Blagus has also been incredibly influential as well in helping development along.

However it comes down to this: No publicly known and working exploits for current versions of the r800X Xperia Play exist at this time.

All,

I am working on building a 7" touchscreen LCD into my car to work with my Atrix. The lcd has capability that allows it to work like a mouse, so with the USB output, and the Atrix HD Dock with USB controllers, I was thinking that it should be possible to get the LCD touchscreen to control my atrix when docked. The company (Lilliput) has Linux drivers and the atrix runs in the Webtop environment when docked (which i want) and so i was wondering if there was a way to get these drivers to work that way?

Unfortunately, I am not a programmer, however, if someone could determine a way to make it work, and help me get it running, I will pay for their labor up to $100. If it seems as though it will take more than that, perhaps we can compromise. Anyone up to the task?

attached is the list for the drivers if this helps you get going.
