i would like to start developing programs for android.i know its Java' but i would also like to develop ROMs Kernels etc.

i heard that kernels are with C is it correct? what do i need to know to cook my own ROM? I'm not talking adding apk's to app folder, I'm talking complete changes...

i want to start learning Java/C/any other (i don't know the word for this, development languages, English is not my daily-spoke language)

i would also like to know how to develop a launcher, is it in Java as well as the other Android programs?

also, what knowledge do I need to translate a ROM to a different language? I mean the entire interface not RTL...

hope you answer soon i want to start learning ASAP...
[General Questions and Answers] papabear010:
This question is pretty simple, what is going to be the best new phone coming out in the next 3-5 months. I am on verizon so I can't use many AT&T or sprint phones. I use my phone for mainly texting, and note taking at school so battery life is a must.

I am big user of android and blackberry if that helps at all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] monterj:
I was lucky enough to get the E4GT a day early from the Sprint store. The 2 weeks prior felt like an eternity! After a couple days using it I can confirm my feeling that this phone would amaze me like the Evo 4G amazed me when it came out.

I didn't think that the Super AMOLED+ display would be THIS amazing! I dropped in some 720p Dexter episodes yesterday and my jaw dropped :eek:. Colors are vibrant and the contrast makes images almost look 3D! Viewing angles can't be matched by any screens today and in direct sunlight text is very readable.

As for battery life, I wasn't expecting out of the box performance like this. It tops the battery life on my rooted Evo 4G that I spent months tweaking to get the best battery life possible! The E4GT took exactly 24 hrs to drain with moderate usage. Gonna be exciting to see what the DEVs can do.

The Exynos 1.2Ghz dual-core processor we already know, is a BEAST. A definite improvement from the Snapdragon. From all the benchmarks I've seen, the speed wasn't a surprise, but still amazing.

The only thing that really boggles down the experience is Sprint's network. :( Sprint will be upgrading the network because of the iPhone so maybe it will improve.

The Epic 4G Touch has officially taken Evo 4G's throne as the best phone.

As a side note, I decided not to get the protection plan. Never had one for the Evo, but in the unfortunate case the E4GT does break, I will happily use my Evo until the Galaxy S IIII comes out! For some reason I don't think my Evo will ever die.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
I put Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban on my phone and the flight and scenic views are jaw-droppingly good. This phone's screen is amazing inside, outside and especially in the dark. The contrast is unmatched! :) I love AMOLED :)

[HTC Sensation] PDY05:
Hey anyone else find that the sensation is faster with a lower resolution due to it not having to redraw/upscale apps?

[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
Not possible afaik
[HTC Sensation] PDY05:
I used a free resolution changer from the market place
[HTC Sensation] PDY05:
Though it does make some from of the native app/programs look funny - so there's definitely a trade off there
[HTC Sensation] ArcticWolf91:
You guys can try this. I haven't tried it since I'm not rooted yet.
[HTC Sensation] chrisgto4:
After changing resolution go into spare parts, unchecked compatibility mode, reboot.....and apps will appear correctly

Something interesting when you change the density to 200 and load up the new market in landscape mode. Looks and works just like my Xooms market. I can't wait for ICS!

detected on other roms as well

randomly i get a grey popup saying "failed to create transport []" there is no cause which i can make out as it is not dependent on an app or process that is see. i have seen that this may be a SIP error, but i'm new to android and don't know what SIP really is, let alone how to fix it.

I don't think you can..but there are similar widgets such as beautiful widgets and retro clock that you can use.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
When you are using a Third Party Launcher you cannot use the native widgets. Fancy Widgets has some great skins for their app. And it mimics the Sense widgets. and as a added plus it uses Weather Bug for the weather reports, which i find most accurate.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] shiftylock:
Hey guys,

I was just wondering, is there any way to get band switching to work on our phones? (Example: being able to switch from HSPA+ to EDGE) This would be very helpful to me, since I frequently visit an area of VERY spotty 3g (to the point where it cannot connect to the web because it's taking too much time to switch back and forth). I know that my old Captivate was able to do make one band stick by going to settings>wireless and networks>and then there was an option there to switch. I saw this available in the Gingerbread version of Infused, and I am currently running Froyo infused (I like the better video camera) Is there a way to edit the build.prop to allow this or something? Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] twelveone:
I, too, would love this. Where I live the phone will only connect to 3g if I select hspa only in the infused v.2 rom. I would love to go back to froyo because of the video recording but I need to be able to select hspa only.

You can only do it with the Rogers modem.... You can find it in the modem thread in the dev section...

[Samsung Infuse 4G] shiftylock:
Doesn't that seem odd, though? BTW, I get significantly lower HSPA+ speeds with the Rogers modem than the AT&T one. I guess I'll have to deal with it. It just seems odd that devs haven't looked into why this is.

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can tell me what is the file format BN uses for its ebooks. I loaded some PDF's to the Nook ST but I can't highlight. So maybe I can convert the PDF to a more "Nook friendly" format.

Anybody know something about this?

Thanks in advance!

You can try the epub format, it should work

I'm trying right now with EPUB converters but besides it takes an eternity to convert (anatomy pdf's) the result is not that good. I can now highlight and add notes but the content ends up kinda messed up.
[Nook Touch General] apeine:
STR reads pdf in either rooted (with or without reflow) or unrooted way. Unrooted you will get better pdf support, instead of converting and losing quality.

As everyone else pointed out, Windows 8 will support the ARM architecture, which is the one being used by processors found in tablets and phones.

[Acer Iconia A500] ve6rah:
first thing is to go in to the tablet settings and make sure "unknown sources" is checked, or you won't be able to install the apk. Then the best thing you could do is to use the browser on the tablet to download the iconiaroot apk, then once you have downloaded it you can click on it in the downloads to run it (instead of loading it through your PC)

Your next step should be to do the same thing with a market apk (google it and I'm sure you can find it) and get yourself a file manager, it will make future such things much easier.

Thanks, Unknown sources are checked and I also tried direct download to Tablet. But After Download, it doesn't install. Says can't open.

[Acer Iconia A500] ve6rah:
Did you download an apk file? or a zip of an apk file? if it isn't the apk itself it won't work.

If you did get the apk, then I'm not really sure... maybe someone else has an idea? the other option would be to start by flashing a stock ROM from this thread to make sure you are starting from the same place as everyone else (if you want root stick to one of the HC3.1 series, I'd recommend 4.010.38)
