Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had the usb adapter for the transformer, and if you can open to see what's there ... I tried to use a usb adapter female / female to see if it worked the USB host, but it was a failure ... probably because the asus adapter also provides nutrition ... someone wants to challenge themselves in the enterprise?
[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
I want to reset my HTC Mozart (Mango 7.5) for some reason but want to take a backup of the entire phone so can restore after reset. I've Zune 4.8 on my PC.

Any idea how? I could find any option in Zune or in phone to take backup.

cheers...
[7 Mozart General] FrozenLord:
Hi,

If I understand your issue correctly then you want to do a full backup before fiddling with your phone.

This is possible via the WP7 Backup via Zune (although not officially supported, there's a great application for that purpose: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14258464#post14258464).

You only need the correct DLL (see links in the topic) and the Windows Phone Support Tool.

The backup process using this tool is straightforward and contains ALL data (SMS, contacts, you name it ;) ).

However, you can only restore 100% of the backup - e.g. there's no possibility to integrate the SMSs you received after creating the backup.

You will also end up with the applications and the WP7 version that was installed at the time you created the backup!

If you are looking for means to backup your data now and restore them to a different WP7 version or different installation, then I have to disappoint you for now - there is currently no possibility.

But there are people working on it :)
[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
hmm, thanks for the link and information but seems like I'm not that much guru :)

I would wait for some easier solution and will do the backup manually.

cheers ...

[Galaxy S II General] wowandroid:
hi guys,

I've been using hard-keyboard phones for the last 10 years or so. I've now got a Samsung galaxy s2 with Orange and i have a few problems which I'm hoping you guys can help me with.

1. The touch screen is extremely sensitive, so is there a way of reducing this?

2. Can you recommend a case/cover:-

a. which is not too expensive

b. can also protect the actual touch screen

c. makes the phone more thicker and easier to hold

Thank You
[Galaxy S II General] TheSaw:
1. That's the point.

2. Check the accesories subforum. I've got a 2$ TPU case + screen protector. It's enough if you don't drop it :D
[Galaxy S II General] wowandroid:
thanks TheSaw.

Even if it is made to be sensitive, not every person is the same, so surely just like people want a screen to be more sensitive, you'll get people wanting a screen to be less sensitive?

The accessories subforum is for USA and i live in the UK..any names or recommendations?
[Galaxy S II General] Propergood:
Yeah this should be in the Q&A or accessories sub forums really.. But regardless, Check Ebay for the Wave case.. comes in a range of colours, is sturdy and robust, makes the phone just a bit more bulky and substantial in the hand and is also ridged in quite a good way for a secure grip. Normally comes with a free screen protector too- the one I got with mine fits well and has endured since the phone's release date - I keep it in my pocket so expected to have to replace it before now.

Applying a screen protector will also reduce sensitivity although the decrease may be negligible... but if you can find a super-cheap nasty one I'm sure it will decrease performance more notably.
[Galaxy S II General] aceofclubs:
You could see if this thread helps.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1161262
[Galaxy S II General] wowandroid:
thank you very much for your advice guys.

@ propergood - i love the wave case...its cheap and seems to do the job...main issue is scratch to screen or phone. as you can understand, a person whom has used a hard-keyboard phone for years, its way too sensitive, so i think i'd be okay with less sensitive. If i bought 2 screen protectors, could i double them by sticking one on top of the other, to make it more thicker, i.e. less sensitive?

@ aceofclubs - that app simply calibrates the screen, right? If so, then i'm not looking for that...i'm wanting an app which allows me to adjust how sensitive the screen response should be...is there such an app?

Also guys, if i rooted my samsung s2, would i be able to backup my original Orange/Samsung FW? And would Orange find out? I don't want to void the warranty.
[Galaxy S II General] Propergood:
I think it's underestimated how resilient these phones are to be honest...

While it probably would further reduce sensitivity I wouldn't advise trying to double layer screen protectors... at least not without limitless patience and about 10 protectors to try/retry with.

The bezel around the wave case does enough for me to keep the screen off surfaces when laid face down.. If you want full front coverage you'd need to get a flip style case or holster, which personally I find to be impractical, and my feeling is that these type of cases don't really provide full protection from direct pinpoint pressure on the screen area anyway. (I had a hard holster for my old blackberry, screen cracked anyway as I leaned over a rail a bit too hard...)

If you happen to want a belt clip type thing though this looks an interesting alternative...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RUBBERIZE...Accessories&hash=item519b9751f4#ht_5575wt_943
[Galaxy S II General] wowandroid:
the belt clip case is great, but its not protect the front screen and when i say protecting, i mean from scratches or pressure.

so i assume you also have an s2? if so, then what app do you use to secure the phone? i want to do online banking and want a safe protection...i.e. it should be extremely hard for someone to break into the phone if they get hold of it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forceu:
Hey guys,

I am developing a game and I would like to include some in-app purchases.

I decided to store the purchased items in a database and adding some checks to it. However, there is still one problem: Wouldn't it be possible to simply disassemble the app, exchange the response codes (eg. USER_CANCELED with OK) so, every time I open the dialogue and abort, my game thinks I bought the item?

I did try it on my app so far, however as I lack experience with baksmali, I didn't work for me. In theory, would be (easily) possible? And if yes, what exactly do you have to change in smali and what are countermeasures?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroAsc:
This is ridiculous, why won't Android phones work with Google Voice when my data connection is not switched on?

I am not trying to call using VOIP, I am trying to call out using my cellular minutes such that the person I am calling will see my Google Voice number on his Caller ID. Is there anyway to do this without having an internet connection?

If there is no way to do this, what apps are there to set this up "manually"? On my old Windows Mobile phone, whenever I call out, I have a software that automatically dials my GV number, enters PIN and dials the number that I dial using the GV interface via phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroAsc:
I only found a Flex Dialer app, but that does not report numbers in my call log correctly. Is there any other apps out there?

Speaking of MHL, which adapter do people recommend getting. The ones of dealextreme look ok at around $16, but the official one costs a fair bit more. Any reason I should go for the official one?

[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
So i have decided to say something, and to write a little "MY GUIDE" :

First of all, this thread is due my AWESOME BATTERY LIFE

I'm running Insert Coin 3.4.1 with Bricked 1.4r1 Kernel.

I have done following steps :

After that 2 more full charging cycles you can charge your phone as much as you want and whenever you want. Charge it on every percent..

When you are charging your phone (after all 3 cycles), try to charge it when it drops under 30% and to charge it untill fully charged green light.

But i understand that sometimes you cant manage to charge it fully and when it is under 30%. Never mind. It is recommended but it is not required every time.

I'm trying to completely discharge and charge over 8 hours once per 1 or 2 weeks.

And after all this i have very good battery life.

With moderate use, my battery lasts over 24 hours (moderate use - lotof voice calls, lot of text messaging (SMS), checking on foursquare and little surfing over mobile network (HDSPA), alot of surfing over home WiFi.

In standby it cant be compared to anything i have heard here : I have 1% per 3 hours drain in stanby.. maybe even more hours, i cant properly determine but overnight when it is not charging i loose not more than 4-5 %).

My setup on phone is following :

I hope you like this, and i hope this will help to some one here.

After all this time on this forum (over year and a half), a lot of people here helped me a lot with my problems with my previous device (HD2) and with my current device (Sensation), so i was in need to try to help other people with major problem (battery).

If you want, put this thread sticky, move it wherever you like, if it is helpfull.

Best regards folks.

Laynee1

p.s. If this helped in any way, or you find this post(guide) useful, don't be lazy to click thanks button :) I thank to you all for your support
[HTC Sensation] akpe:

[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
Would appreciate thanks button hit :)

And , yes, try it.. and report results pelease :D

For example.. I charged my phone today, took it of charger 10am..

With moderate use i have 98 percents now.. It is awsome
[HTC Sensation] mzmo:
That's called bump charging. It may increase short term battery life, but depletes long term battery life. HTC recommended you do this ONCE every couple of months.

Plus our batteries are lithium ion, so doing full charge/discharge cycles will practically have no effect. You could do it just to calibrate it wight the phone, so as the phone "knows" what's 100% & 0%. But other than that, fully discharging these batteries could harm them. These batteries like partial discharge. So charging them when they get to around say, 30% is more convenient for them.

Just thought I'd let you know :)

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
I didnt said to repeat this every day or week..

I said you should have 2 full charge discharge only once after u done 1st couple of steps..

Full charge and discharge once per 2 weeks will, in no way, harm our phones..

And i said

I have done steps from above, and i have great battery life.. short and long..

I know our batteries are lithium ion, and i know a bit about them (im finishing Electrical engeneering College here in Serbia (most difficult ever :) ))..

So :)

To recap..

This method CANT harm your battery or device.. It can only help your battery life.. Try it.. See it yourself
[HTC Sensation] decebal12345:
Thank you for your guide.
[HTC Sensation] mzmo:
Woah, take it easy my Serbian friend. All that I'm doing, is stating the facts & trying to help you understand that what you hear about charge/discharge cycles are just carryovers from previous batteries where it was good to be do several full drain/recharge cycles.

Here's a perfectly clear explanation of the differences coming from experts: http://androidforums.com/incredible-tips-tricks/69534-battery-charging-myths.html

And a more detailed one:

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries

What you experienced is bump charging, like I said, it may increase short term battery life, but WILL decrease its long term usability. So come on, this is a community, we learn from one another ;)
[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
@mzmo :

Mate.. You got me wrong. I appreciate your post in this thread . I find it useful. Ofcourse we learn from each other.

The facts ive put in OP thread are facts from my phone directly . First steps of guide was in mail HTC has responded to me.

So, all in all, thanks for your posts ,and for your future posts.. I find them all like big contribute to XDA community.. After all, i made this thread due to that :)

Hi everyone!

I'm running on the GingerBread 2.3 Seredipity ROM. I'd like to mod the framework to change the notification bar icon and the a lil UI mod.

Everything was well-done except for 2 ones: the top status bar color (can NOT change into the transparent color) and the pull-down status bar background (can NOT change the background pix).

I made a replacement of 2 png: status_bar_background & statusbar_background.9 in the framework-res.apk & SystemUI.apk.

So anyone try it before on 2.3? I can do it easily on 2.2 but I failed on 2.3, it always sticks with the original background though I've made a change in the framework-res.apk and SysUI.apk
