[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hell_storm2004:
Thanks! Ok here's the problem...

I downloaded the Android SDK and then installed and downloaded the Android v4.0 API. Also I have Eclipse Indigo and installed the ADT plugin and Java SE 7.

Now when i try to configure the ADT in Eclipse with the with the SDK path... It gives me an exception that there is a mismatch of the versions. I think it says that my SDK version is 12 and the ADT supports version 14 and above. But i see the API revision on SDK manager and it says that my version is 14. I cant post screen shots right now as i am in office. I can when i go home.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hell_storm2004:
Here is the exception i get... Now downloaded the ADT plugin today and it should be the latest right?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hell_storm2004:
Ok problem solved! :)

Look like the Yoxos marketplace for Eclipse had the older version. :p

Now about the API level. Which is the best one to start off with? I have downloaded Android v4.0 (API 14). Is it ok to start off with that?

Hi, I read and tired several methods before posting this.

Unfortunately couldn't find the cure for my problem.

I tired energy android and CMYLXGO roms and they work without any problem.

But have a problem with exchange email connection with the roms like Dorimanx and nexus type of roms..

I assume that the problem is with the email.apk and I tired some other aps's, doesn't work..

When I try to set up my exchange acc., kind of error message appears, "can't connect to server" (can't remember the exact wording)

Other than this, roms work perfectly.

Would be glad if I can find the cure for this.

Many thanks..

Cheers
[TouchPad General] Sippolo:
Hi everyone!

I'm reading lots of good things about the HP Touchpad, and I'm planning to take a tablet just these days.

I was comparing the new Amazon Kindle Fire and the new Nook Tablet (aka. Nook Color 2) which are about to come out this month.

Unfortunately I'm from Italy so Amazon will not be a good option for me at last...

Suddenly I stumbled upon this HP Touchpad: lots of good reviews, lots of happy feedbacks, 9.7'' (which would be awesome for me as I'm gonna study on it lots of university pdf lessons too), good development community (Dual Boot WebOS and Android? Awesome!), CM support, all made me think it should be my best choice, but...

I'm just recently aware of the fact that HP Touchpad production is discontinued now, and so I'm really worried about HP's warranty/support of the product if I'd buy it now.

Also I'm worried about future updates (from development community mainly), I'd really like to develop for Android OS on this tablet if I'm gonna buy it.

I'm not a big fun of cameras and gps (I have another smartphone and real camera for those), so the lack of those is not a problem for me.

Also, my budget is ONLY around 200-230 bucks, not even near 300 bucks.

Finally, would you suggest this HP Touchpad to someone that's gonna buy a tablet NOW, is it still a good choice?

If the answer is yes, could you please explain why and suggest where to buy for worldwide delivery?

If not, could you please explain why in details and what would you suggest instead?

Thanks in advance!
[TouchPad General] Sippolo:
It's funny how nobody actually answered this topic :p

At last, I managed to get a Touchpad for myself, spent around € 170 (yeah I'm talking in my own currency), which is totally worth it!

First day I updated WebOS to version 3.0.4, installed Preware with new kernel and governor at 1,5 Ghz.

Later on the same day, I installed the last CyanogenMod alpha release with SOD fix.

Guys, what can I say...this device is totally awesome!

I've tried lots of times the iPad 2, and also the new Galaxy Tab 10.1, and this Touchpad really is on the SAME level of experience (especially once you "unlock" the 1,5 processors).

I must say, WebOS for multi tasking and productivity, is far more professional and has really better performance than Android (and potentially could have been on same level of iOS if other nice updates would have come along), it's a real pleasure to use it.

Not to mention that the CyanogenMod is actually feeling as a real Beta, and Android on this Tablet is awesome too.

For ~ $200 this is a real bargain.

I don't even worry about WebOS future nor HP future anymore, as ICS has come out now and CyanogenMod's team will surely surprise us with a cool Alpha release the next 1-2 months or so (hoping).

And if anything goes wrong, the WebOS Doctor is the key for not breaking your warranty almost 99% of the times.

It's really difficult to break this Tablet from what I've seen.

I just hope, if anything really goes wrong on hardware side, that HP support for warranty will be good enough, hoping it will be available here in EU aswell.

If any of you knows anything about it, please share!

Final words: if you don't have it, take it!
[TouchPad General] KrzychuG:
Current WebOS works well in multitasking, but the original one was really slow. Few cards opened and you literrally had issues with typing on virtual keyboard, really annoying stuff, even on overclocked (1.5GHz) version. Android was working way better then, felt perfectly smooth and so on, but for now, since it drains battery more and has some WiFi connectivity issues WebOS is just fine ;-)

Looking forward to ICS to get it's full potential.
[TouchPad General] hakkinenvthh:
I'm very pleased with the support of HP for TouchPad. I live in France and I'm a very lucky man because I could buy 4 TP in fire sale: 1 16GB, 1 32GB and 2 64GB. I have 1 64GB sent to repair center in Hungary because of the cracks, after 1,5 month I haven't yet seen any cracks, 1 16GB sent 2 times to repair center because of the touch screen (after the first repair, the problem couldn't be solved). Normally the tablet returns back in 10 days (by UPS), and totally free :D
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
Heck Yes! It's a blessing!
[TouchPad General] lolwatpear:
for the price, it's the best
[TouchPad General] TrueYears:
if you can get it under 200 its a good choice

The Asus Transformer will go on sale for 249.99
[TouchPad General] Sippolo:
Thanks a lot man!

This is the answer I was looking for since I bought the TP :D

If I wasn't before, now I'm totally convinced I've done the best choice :p

I've just bought a Belkin case for iPad, and not so surprisingly it fits perfectly for Touchpad!

Even the holes for ports/buttons are at same positions :rolleyes:
[TouchPad General] Tykin:
Sooooo happy with my touchpad. I was going to buy a Kindle fire, but when I saw the touchpads going for the same price on Ebay, I knew this would be the better deal.

Plus,I really like webOS. It works flawlessly on my work's wifi. Android devices trend to drop connection fairly often.
[TouchPad General] mputtr:
the touchpads in raw bang per buck is better than the fire and nook combined. you're looking at a 1.5ghz dual core processor that was underclocked to 1.2ghz for marketting purposes.

the IPS screen alone is worth 100 bucks in supply costs

and 32gb of space? for 150bucks? done deal imo.
[TouchPad General] tigerdavid:
as it is so cheap now nothing will stop me to buy it！
[TouchPad General] viny2cool:
I am running dual boot webos and cm7. I will never be more happy. My sister has nook color, and I have used it. My tp beats it to dust becoz of the speed and screen to name a few things. I have heard good reviews about kindle fire but still its e reader with customized and limited version of android which again will have to cracked to get full android experience. Nook tablet seems to be good but its still 7 inch screen.

I know u can run Ubuntu and android on tp right now. It looks like tp hardware is like hd2, means we will b able to run many different OS on it.

This is the transparency patch made from Zdune's patcher. Works great for me on CM7 nightly. Saw that there was a few people asking for this but couldn't paste it as a reply since I've never created an account :)

Both the patch and undo CWM zips are inside the attached file, you will have to extract before flashing

Update 12/8: Uploaded patches for weekly 3
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
Does this work on the two stable builds? I've tried the patch on those but didn't work.
[Atrix 4G General] Vicious Von:
Can i get some instructions too because I'd like to know how you did it because I've been tryingh this since zunex25 released his meizu theme
[Atrix 4G General] rob43:
@abu-7abash yes i've successfully run it on both stable and nightly builds

@vicious von just follow the patcher options on Zdunes website, just copy the files as I mentioned in the 1st post

also i have it working great on meizu right now, the transparent statusbar requires you to use live wallpapers to work. You can use the multipicture live wallpaper from the market to get the transparency with regular picture :)
[Atrix 4G General] OSNPA:
I used a patch that was posted in the themes and apps section, has worked on every version of cm7 except for the Ba2TF. Glad to see this!
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
Which stable build? the new Ba2tf OR the older one?
[Atrix 4G General] milesjohnson:
^didnt mean to press the thank-you lol. But does anyone know if this works on all nightlies? And you have to use multilivewallpaper for it to work right?
[Atrix 4G General] andesman90:
i installed this on ba2f and it is working fine!
[Atrix 4G General] Obartuckc:

[Atrix 4G General] Vicious Von:
it works with the latest build of CM7 cuz thats what im using. What I wanna know is will it work for every theme in cm7's theme chooser?
[Atrix 4G General] milesjohnson:
Just wanna say thanks for this!:) got it working perfectly....anyone wanna do the center clock mod? And I faintly remember the thread saying you can't use both. Is this still the case?
[Atrix 4G General] Obartuckc:
Care to share step by step? Please? =)

~ Sent from My Unlocked, Rooted, Ba2TF CM7, Faux 1.3gHz Atrix 4G ~
[Atrix 4G General] rog1121:
I've modded SystemUI.apk a ton of times to center the clock and also add a transparent statusbar. If you want to get this to work your have to set the permissions of SystemUI.apk to 644 after you replace it.

The easiest solution is to take your framework-res.apka nd SystemUI.apk, go to UOT Kitchen and simply set the transparency values there and it will build you a CWM zip that you can flash.
[Atrix 4G General] milesjohnson:
Also....how do you get the transparent to work on go launcher ex? I know you have to use multipicture live wallpaper but how do you get a normal wallpaper and still have transparency?
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
Care to share your done files?
[Atrix 4G General] milesjohnson:
For some reason I can't get this working anymore? I'm on nightly 20 but its not doing anything when I flash it

[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
Any chance of adding the ICS patch files too? Can't seem to workout the new one on BA2TF for some reason.
[Atrix 4G General] rob43:
Yes both patches are inside the attached zip in OP
[Atrix 4G General] rob43:
If I have time this weekend I'll check out the ICS mod, haven't tried it out yet
[Atrix 4G General] Vicious Von:
Does this patch work for themes that have transparency in them like the ICS ones?

running CM7 thirty for ICS so I got the bootleg
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
Great, that's all I'm asking :)
[Atrix 4G General] rob43:
Yes, you have to use a live wallpaper for the transparent statusbar to work. To get the transparent statusbar with a regular wallpaper, I use Wallpaper Slideshow from the market.
[Atrix 4G General] gustrick:
can you post a capture please?

Greatings
[Atrix 4G General] ltdanno360:
this is what it did to mine should had left it alone it was smokey black but transparent now its solid
[Atrix 4G General] thebeardedchild:
So I'm very confused about this whole transparent status bar deal with the Atrix...It seems CM7 roms on many phones already support themes with transparency in the status bar? But the Atrix, for some reason, doesn't want to handle it very well? So this mod is a tweaked version of Zdune's for the Atrix? I'm just really confused...I applied a cool theme I really like that has transparency, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm reading in this thread that this particular mod doesn't work on the Ba2tf, which is what I'm running, however... and then I ALSO read that it requires the multipicture live wallpaper, or am I reading that wrong?

Also, while I'm at it, how effective would it be to try the UOT kitchen method of requesting a transparent status bar after providing the framework and systemui apk's from my system? That seems pretty easy...

Sorry for all the questions. I'm just confused as to all the various methods, which ones have to be used together, which ones are easiest, which actually work lol, etc.

Use adb. Connect device, open a prompt and type in:

adb remount

rm /system/app/*name*.apk

adb reboot

You may also want to delete the dalvik cache too, to remove the .dex for that game.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
How can you tell if your using both cpu cores???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] namklak:
Or the flip side of that coin, can I power down one of my cores?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
From my understanding both cores run in sync, meaning they both run all the time at the same speed. It is the tegra 2 design. Other dual core chip sets run asynchronous
[T-Mobile LG G2x] namklak:
I'm not sure that answers either question - just because both cores are running on the same clock doesn't mean they are both doing work. Obviously, two cores can't work on the same thread or process at the same time. Some executive has to manage the work load and the associated resource sharing. Does GB really do any multi-core? Does ICS?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
All good questions. I was wondering the same thing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Excellent points. I found this.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosswell:
Hi you all!

I don't know if I'm in the right section here, of if I'm allowed to do it, but I have a question: where|how can I find or submit an App development request?

In other words: I`m looking for someone (developer) that can build a specific App for me. I have a small budget for it, and I would love to hear from any one interested.

Below is the basic description of the work.

At first, I'll try to explain the context of what I'm looking for.

I'm director of a Pathfinder Club, also knows as Pfadfinder (German), Desbravadores (Portuguese) or Conquistadores (Spanish). We are an organization similar to Scouts, that work with children of different ages.

We meet every week to develop activities related to nature, physical skills, social works and so on.

What I need is an app for

large-screen Android devices

, where one can check and mark the member's presence on a specific day and the activities (pre-defined) that he has accomplished on that day. Each activity, such as the presence, must be recognized as Points, which need to be summed up for an entire year. At the end of the year, we can know who has the higher presence rate, and who has performed the most number of activities during the year.

An Excel spreadsheet has done the trick for me for some years, but I am willing to improve this system by means of a mobile device, where I can check and assign points on the go.

I guess, it would require a database with the names of each member (I must be able to add members during the year), and a interface containing the names of each members on the left (like in a spreadsheet), and different columns to the right, each one referring to a different criteria (presence, required materials along, if he has made the required activity during the previous weeks, etc). When I click on a specific criteria, a small windows should pop-up, revealing the points that I will assign to the member.

For example, on the presence case, if the members is present, he gets 10 points. If he is present, but arrived late, he get 5 points. If he is not present, he gets 0 points.

The most important: these points need to be exportable to excel, so I can work with them at the end of the year. I supposed it should be simpler than creating a fancy graphic interface on the app for that.

I'm actually from Brazil, but there would be no problem if the the app is developed in English.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.ark:
This can be easily done with basic php and html. Is there a reason you are set on Android?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosswell:
Hi, m.ark!

Until now I have worked with Excel spreadsheets, and it works just fine.

I'm willing to have an Android app because then I can assign these points easily on the go, with a nice friendly interface that doesn't require typing the points.

If your question was about Android versus other mobile OS, then the answer is based on the price and availability of Android tablets. And because I already own one. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 1lazysheep:
i'm trying to figure out what restoring from a backup actually does.

let's say i make a Nandroid backup and then flash a custom ROM like StarBurst. i then restore from the backup i made. will this restore all of my apps, settings, files, etc. to the same configuration they were before flashing the custom ROM? so will i be running the new ROM with all of my previous apps, files, etc.?

OR will i have to start all over from scratch (install all apps, files, etc.) each time i flash a ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisbass:
The nandroid is a backup of the whole rom which you chose to back up. If you restore the back up it'll overwrite the new rom u flashed. Each time you flash a new rom you usually have to start from scratch unless u use something like titanium backup (look for it in the market or google it to find info about it). Remember its always best to do a wipe before flashing a new rom unless instructed that its ok to not do one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 1lazysheep:
ok, thanks. yeah, i've read a handful of tutorials and they all say to wipe all your data. with new ROM updates coming out all the time, i didn't want to start all over from scratch each time. installing and customizing all the apps i have would take forever.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AreOh:
Is it true that Titanium Backup isn't a good one to use since you can't restore data because it will cause force closes? If I'm going to restore then I'd like to restore settings, bookmarks, texts, etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majorkillin:
It depends. For a single app and it's data Titanium works great. I use it all the time. Using to restore phone settings is where you can run into problems. And that is because going from ROM A to ROM B, the dev may have changed some system file somewhere that Titanium is gonna mess with, then you get weird force close issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] B[L]A[D]E:
Hi,

this is not the first time that it happens, in the past to solve I had to reinstall the whole firmware, but honestly is a waste of time reinstall all the apps and restore their data. My problem is that sometimes when I quit from some apps (generally games) the buttons of phone, address book and sms disappears from launcher bar (as you can see in attached photo). Probably the question is stupid but... have you any hint on how to reconfigure the launcher?

TIA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sbnaul:
just enter menu... then press soft key... then press edit... and then just drag phone, messages and contacts back to the drawer...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] B[L]A[D]E:
Mmmmhhhhh no way, from menu->edit I can only add and remove homepages.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i got that sometimes roght after restart when the phone is still loading ... either that is it or if it will not apear after like 15 seconds you can clear tw cache/data in settings/aplications/manage aplications/ALL - find tw launcher (sometimes in some languages it is called network) anyways youre looking for such icon there on list
[Galaxy S I9000 General] B[L]A[D]E:
Tank you $omator, this resolve my issue :)

FYI my application is called 'Home'
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
depends on translation in Polish it is Sieć and that means Network :)

anyways gg
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Тhe Dark Knight:
why don't like you go launcher ex? =)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] le_vilain:
thanks again $omator

your trick has worked also for me!

btw in french it's "acceuil"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i like simple tw3 look for example modified a bit to fit my needs,

ofc they can always install alternative launcher BUT HOW IS THAT FIXING THE MISSING ICON PROBLEM?

it is not, and that is not this thread topic (what launcher do i use)

but how to solve particular issue
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tapsumbongs:
you should move the apps in your dock to the app menu before using a new launcher
[Acer Iconia A500] baldbear:
Can you remap the keys that don't work on the Motorola keyboard to the Acer equivalents? I can't remember which ones right now (I'm at work), but I know some of the special function keys on top don't do anything.
[Acer Iconia A500] uli68:
i have the official german acer bluetooth keypboard but for some reason it wont get identified as such, means QWERTY instead of QWERTZ layout. acer support recommends to switch to xt9-mode (which for some strange reason works with german umlaute) but this surely can't be the solution.

someone knows the cause of this problem? and how to fix it on stock rom 3.2?
[Acer Iconia A500] samstheman42:
Yes it is possible to re map them to execute new commands. Is there a particular function that you want it to do?
[Acer Iconia A500] samstheman42:
This is possible to fix using the stock ROM as long as you have root access to the tablet. If you follow the above process, you can re map the letter keys to pretty much any configuration that you want.
[Acer Iconia A500] uli68:
so a rooted device is mandatory? too bad, i had hopes i could fix this while keeping up my warranty. is there a way to get a rooted device back to factory settings?
[Acer Iconia A500] samstheman42:
It's actually quite easy. If you follow this post on How To Root An Acer Iconia A500 you'll find that not only can you get root access very easily, but reverting back to "factory settings" where the tablet is "unrooted" is as easy as the touch of a button. (covered later in the thread)
