[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
My guess is that if a device has physical buttons the on screen buttons are not shown. I highly doubt we will see the elimination of physical buttons, especially in low end small screen devices that will continue to be available. Not to mention some people might not be very comfortable with no physical buttons.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Well we don't have "physical" buttons per say on the Photon do we? IE home, search, etc.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jjday7:
The nexus prime has nothing but onscreen controls. I agree they will have to make the capacitive buttons work because I don't see every phone not having buttons because it will turn some consumers away. I just think the transition to ICS is going to be a lot harder than froyo to gingerbread. This is a complete overhaul of android from what I have seen.

Hey I would love to see it come to the photon but if even a company like HTC who updates their phone pretty often says they are not even giving Sense 3.5 to the Evo 3d consumers than seeing ICS on top tier phones is probably going to take a while.

I will say there is a ray of sunshine because the ATrix did receive gingerbread and motorola could have easily let that phone die out due to low sales. That shows they do care that the consumer is on the newest software.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Well ICS is the new google deal right? For their phone? And google owns motorola now don't they? So one would assume we should get it. I just remember hearing that so we might actually get the ICS faster than I thought.
[Motorola Photon 4G] darktranquility18:
Doesnt work like that. Itll take a while before google has complete control over motorola. They're prolly still in the phase of acquiring them.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Fair enough. I thought they had aquired them I wasn't aware they were still in the merger process.
[Motorola Photon 4G] John Kotches:
In corporate mergers it takes a while for integration to occur after the joining of the two companies. This can take anywhere from months to years.

[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Yeah I know. Well then I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
[Motorola Photon 4G] IP IHI II IL:
My initial thought was the same. "Google now owns MotoMobile, so the Photon should be the second phone to get ICS" But then I realized 1) they don't own them outright (yet), 2) they've claimed they're gonna let MotoMobile remain their own company (until they wanna build something REALLY cool) and 3) since Blur sucks so bad, it's gonna take a while to get ICS to mesh well.

As for capacitive buttons, I know that on the Flyer port, they were all disabled (except for the scribe launch button), and that's OK with me!

Pew! Pew! Pew! From my Mo-Pho!

[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Yeah. So I guess a port is probably more likely than an OTA update for the time being for us.
[Motorola Photon 4G] willysp:
I've gone through a number of large corporate mergers (as one of the mid-level troops, not saying I'm one of the drivers).

It is VERY common for the 2 companies to start detailed planning and integration in a couple of keys areas where they will get quick competitive differentiation well before the deal is finalized. Subject to legal and regulatory limits of course. And they will have confidentiality and NDA's in place if they need to abort/unwind the detail.

It's quite true that full integration of back office, product portfolios and supply chain can take a couple of years. But this should be fairly short for Moto and Google since they are pretty dissimilar companies and won't have a ton of overlap to deal with.

I have absolutely no doubt that Moto and Google are working very closely now on ICS and Moto HW.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cryp7os:
I can't even fathom a guess at when we'd see a OTA update, however depending on the time frame it'll be nice to see where the Photon sits in their eyes. 6 months or more and I think we can consider ourselves the retarded little brother of the Atrix.

Ripple Lock has been updated to version 2.5.9 with some new features added, such as screen timeout, screen lock, delay lock, display contact name and number of the incoming call, and also the bugs was fixed on version 2.5.5. Ripple lock is now more stable, has more features and faster. Ripple Lock is a Lockscreen that was ported from Android Tablet Honeycomb to work on pre-honeycomb Android devices, including your Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread and even donut.

Ripple Lock allows you to have the same lockscreen on tablet honeycomb device. As we know, lockscreen on honeycomb device is very beautiful that always makes us envy. Now as long as you have an Android device, you will be able to enjoy it. To unlock the screen, you just have to drag the inside circle to the outside circle. To have it on your non-honeycomb device will give you an experience you will like, you will never get bored unlocking your device. On ripple lock 2.0, some features have been added like self-define shortcut icon, add choose music control, add self start after root and more. Ripple Lock 2.5.9 .Apkworks on Android 2.1 and higher version.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reignofernie:
Hey guys,

Thanks in advance to anybody that may be able to help me out. I'm wanting to create an app that uses a phones camera and maybe flash to measure the amount of gloss on something. I'm wanting to make this app for personal projects I work on and don't have a gloss meter. So What I'm wondering, how exactly would I go about using the camera to do this.

I have a small amount of knowledge on android software development, but I'd consider myself a beginner. I'm going to school for Computer Engineering, so I know a lot of the basics, just need help on the starting direction.

I'm thinking that there should be a way to use the camera's flash to reflect the gloss and have a way to measure the amount of shine on whatever it is you're trying to test. Any ideas are welcomed, along with why it would never work if someone believes that. Thanks again for any help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punshkin:
so you`re looking for an App that tells you if your LipGloss looks good on you :P

you could try to get the "gloss-factor" by having the app measure the diameter of the flash-reflection (how bis is the (mostly white) diameter)

another way could be to put a black-white squared or striped pattern under the thing ( if it is transparent) and let the app measure how much darker the black is (when flash is on something dark it becomes bright, whight is already white)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reignofernie:
yeah, I'm going to try to set it up like that so my lip gloss is perfect! lol

Thanks for teh input, once I get it going I'll post a beta on here for anyone that'd like to try it.
[Dell Streak 7] superdreadnought2001:
New here, first post, please don't flame me.

I did not find this question in the forum search.

I have a Streak 7 WiFi and did the Android 3.2 (Honeycomb) upgrade. I don't really care for it (please don't flame me).

Is there a way to rollback/downgrade back to the OEM load of the Android 2.2 (Froyo)?

Is there an OEM image out there, if so, is there also a guide for a roll back?

This unit is not unlocked or rooted. I am new to trying something like this with a tablet.
[Dell Streak 7] cdzo72:
The reason you would normally get flamed for your post is because your post obviously shows you did NOT do ANY searching... there is a thread SPECIFICALLY for getting your wifi 7 back to stock froyo, just search for it and while you are at it read through a bunch of the other threads in the forum

It will make life for you much easier if you learn about your device

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msrkam:
I have an odd problem. My Dell Streak will boot but once it gets into the OS none of the buttons are responsive. It is not frozen however. I've recalibrated the touchscreen but that does nothing.

However, the controls work when I am booted into recovery and the screen before fastboot.

The person I bought it from had tried to install StreakDroid but I'm not sure how he went about it. I followed the guides, flashing the correct amss and dsp. But I have the same issue.

I'm wondering what the problem could be. Should I try and flash the original Dell rom back on first and see if that works? It is just odd that everything works except when it has booted into Android.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordmorphous:
I'm going to assume you have a custom recovery on there. If so, make a nandroid backup, flash a stock recovery, update via the matching pkg file, flash StreakMod recovery, then restore your nandroid backup. That will ensure all the firmwares "match", which could be causing your problem. It sounds like you aren't sure of the history of the roms and such on this phone. This will start you out at square one without losing your custom rom and settings. Certainly couldn't hurt.

[Milestone 2 General] modern_messiah:
Hi all,

I'm having a little problem. I have researched but everything I've found leads me back to square one...

So I followed this guide to installing CM7 on my M2. Please note that I have in the past successfully rooted my phone, installed the Argenstone ROM and one other basic Great Britain Rom. So I'm not a total nub. However at this stage I have a phone that's is useless to me...

My phone is rooted. I have Droid2Bootstapper installed and I managed to get the CWM 3.X installed. I downloaded the all-in-one.zip file from the CM7 ROM thread (the zip is actually called EndlessCM7-110901-nightly_build.zip - hope that's not an issue?)

I booted into CWM and applied the EndlessCM7-110901-nightly_build.zip and after (without a reboot) wiped everything (I had backed it up previously).

I rebooted the phone and...well I get the Google logo with the Motorola M and the Cyanogen bot as the 2 'O' characters. Then after a while a 3D rotating 'square' and the android writing and logo 'shimmering' in and out but that just goes on forever. I left it for an hour at one point and just gave up.

Now I can't even get past the Google logo. I've tried restoring my previous back up but that won't work either. I can't boot into the OS to actually use RSD lite to flash a known working ROM over the top.

When the LED turns blue and I hit the volume key it displays "Android BootMenu <v1.0.3>" which is different to the CWM 3.X that I was getting prior to applying the EndlessCM7-110901-nightly_build.zip file.

From here I can select to recover the last 'latest recovery' which when done loads into CWM-based Recovery v4.0.1.6-defy.

Basically I'm at this point where I seem to be able to load just about every boot menu under the sun and do everything but actually launch the damn OS.

How can I get out of this hole? Preferably I'd like to get everything back to the stock ROM the phone came with so that I can start from scratch again.

Any bodies help would be more than appreciated.

Cheers,

- Matt

EDIT: I have even used CWM 4.X+ to try and restore the Argenstone ROM. it goes through the whole process of checking the MD5 sums, restoring the system and boot images etc and seems to work without any issues. I then wipe all data and reboot. Nothing - still the same cyanogen Google logo and the only thing I can do is boot into all the CWM menus.

*sigh*
[Milestone 2 General] modern_messiah:
Argh feel like a true idiot now. It took me about an hour of searching earlier but I've only just found/remembered how to get RSD lite to see my phone (pwr+volume+camera) and I'm wiping the whole thing to the factory (vodafone) ROM. Might take the opportunity to take it to Vodafone and tell them it never gets a damn 3G connection lol...provided this flash works (touch wood).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suprdave2:
I installed ScriptManager and unfortunately after doing so, whenever I choose to send an MMS and attach a picture, Android 2.3.4 asks me to select an action for what app I want to select my picture with. It gives me a list of Gallery and "SM File Browser" with no option to choose a default.

I have no desire to use SM File Browser to choose the photo I want to attach, and I also want to keep ScriptManager installed. Is there any way of either:

A) Forcing Gallery to be used for this action

or

B) Removing ScriptManager as a file browser option?
[Acer Iconia A500] pbuder:
My Acer is stock with only ADW Launcher. I've not rooted it or done any modifications to it otherwise. No SD card in it when OTA attempted.

The OTA attempted to download today but seemed to have failed and ultimatly seems to have bricked the tablet. I called Acer Support and they want me to send the tab in to be fixed but I'm hoping there is a way to fix it still.

The OTA prompte came up and I agreed to download.

Download progress bar started but an hour later when I came back to my desk it was still at 0%.

I tried to cancel but it wouldn't cancel nor could I get back to the desktop or to anything else, basically frozen.

Not sure whatelse to do, I powered it off and turned it back on.

The Acer logo comes on and then the Android logo and that is as far as it gets.

Acer had me try holding power and vol down button. That would get me to android with a yellow triangle but thats its.

I found online the hard reset of power/vol up and toggle switch and got 'Erasing Data' but it never gets further.

Anyone have any suggestions of what to try?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
You could try a manual update to 3.2 using the official Acer ota ROM found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878

Drop the ROM associated with your current GEN on your external SD card, rename it "update.zip", then boot with your external SD card in the slot while holding power and volume.

Should do the trick.

I could never get a clear-cut answer from the differences of both of these. I could also never get the advantages/ disadvantages of having them on or off.

The closest thing I could find was this:

Ever since I've owned an Android device, I've always kept both of them check marked. But, out of curiosity, I unchecked "Always-on mobile data" on my S4G right now to see what kind of extra battery life I will get.

The only things I constantly want synced are my Exchange account, Gmail, and weather, so I'm hoping unchecking "Always-On Mobile Data" won't screw that up.
