[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kspurr:
I'm not sure how many of you use or have heard of Overdrive, but it's a pretty cool setup that allows you to checkout audio books through your library. Well, to be more accurate, through your libraries overdrive account/website if they have one. Some of what they offer is available as MP3 files, but the great majority of audio books are only available as DRM'd WMA files.

I've found that I can transfer DRM Protected WMA Audiobooks without any issues when my GS2 is running Android 2.3.3 KI4, but as soon as I upgrade to a newer Stock version or newer version of some of the popular Roms on here, I run into License issues. Does anyone know anything about how the WMA DRM support works on here, or about any particular compatibility issue introduced in newer version of android or GS2 Roms?

Oddly it looks like the older MTP app is handling license negotiation as the files are transferred over. When I upgrade, the MTP app definitely acts differently closing and reopening during the transfer.

Sorry for the semi vague description, but I'd appreciate any info that anyone may have on this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kspurr:
Just in case anyone else is looking for a solution for this problem, I've found one... Upgrade to ICS. Samsung appears to have resolved the issue on their own. I've verified that this MTP functionality works in both I9100XXLPQ and I9100DXLP9.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
Are the developers going to make ICS Roms when source is released? I heard that only CM would be allowed to make ICS Roms. I think thats completely unfair and I would like to start a twitter campaign to tell Google what we think about this outrage.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gojimi:
I think CM will just Kang UD for ICS.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foobaz123:
I heard google was just going to turn ICS over to CM and call it a day
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
Thats so unfair. So its confirmed that Google is only turning source over to CM?

Is there a way I can get a copy of the stock HTC Keyboard on the G2? I miss it so much from my Inspire 4G. I believe it was Sense 2.1. Preferably without rooting?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
I believe if you Google HTC keyboard xda you should be able to find something
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
I have but it seems more complicated than just a quick apk install. The ones I read have some sort of ime which needs to be modified to work without Sense. It seems to be over my head. I'm not a complete noob, I rooted my Inspire 4G but found I prefer stock for what I do. But the keyboard thing really bugs me on this device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:

I found this which is exactly what Im looking for, are there steps I need to take to make it work? It seems to have some pretty specific instructions and for a different device

I read closer and it wont work. I really like the directional keys on the bottom which the FroYo keyboards floating around dont have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
This is the HTC skin from Smart Keyboard Pro (though it doesn't look as good as the original). It gives the directional keys also (you can use them with any skin). It has a lot of skins to begin with, and you have the option to get more (from the app forum).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
There are several options for lookalikes - thumb keyboard comes very close, and I really appreciate the suggestion. But these don't quite do it. I've resorted to Swype till I figure this out. I'm noticing these and the included keyboards don't come with a keyboard hide button either which gets incredibly annoying especially while using the internet browser. Sort of frustrating how a supposedly superior device seems less thought through than the HTC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
It's funny you say that; I made that feature request to the developer of the app I mentioned (which was never implemented). You've piqued my interest in this and I'll be on the lookout.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmmxtech:
its normal, theres a batch of desire HD that cant be downgraded using 1.32, its somehow corrupt the bootloader..

what youll do is let it boot. Then update it thru OTA then root it with ace advance kit onece done updating..

maybe pls put OTA rom link here ?

can i downgrade & root device with ace advance kit ?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorjino2000:
You can use Ace advanced kit - you will not need to downgrade - just start the kit. But first - carefully reed the instructions. It is easier to use this kit.

Hope this helps.

i want flash OTA (pls link) then Root with kit.

how to use flash OTA when device downgraded?

or i can flash new Hboot until without OTA rom to use kit.

how to use flash Hboot?

Sorry it was a long text.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorjino2000:
Search in google "htc desire hd ruu download" and choose 2.50.XXX version, where XXX are same as on your phone. The file will be .exe, open it with your computer and follow the procedure. You should connect your phone to PC with cable.

Did you try to update OTA using phone menu: settings-about phone-software updates or something like this. You should connect first to wi-fi and then try to update via OTA.

Regards/Поздрави. :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] render2851:

that is important. Before downgrade my phone build number was 2.42.415 and after downgrade 1.32.405 and the bootloader was very very slow

I realize this question may be better suited for the development forum, but I'm going to give it a shot here so I don't have to spam the forums to get to the required post count to post there.

If I were interested in changing certain colors within the CM7 messaging app, which files would I need to edit to do this? For example, the background color for incoming messages is an extremely light blue that may as well be white, and it is hard to distinguish from outgoing messages. Where can I find the file that contains that color information, and what would I need to change?

And before people jump on the "just use GoSMS/Handcent/etc." wagon, I'll say that I have tried those and haven't found one I like yet. I appreciate the barebones nature of the default messaging app that comes with CM7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Look through the settings of CM7's mms app. There is an option to change the colors to black and gray.

I posted this in the Thunderbolt forum(as I still have a TB until Monday), but thought you guys would get a laugh out of it to.

This was the line for the RAZR launch this morning at my local Verizon. This pic was taken 10 minutes before they opened(They decided on 11:11AM for the launch).

Btw, that lady wasn't there for the RAZR... she just wanted a new battery for her phone and was upset that Verizon wasn't open yet.

[HTC Rezound] shankville75:
Lol yeah I went down to play with the RAZR thinking that I had to stand in line to do so, but the freaking store was pretty much empty. I asked one of the sales reps about how the RAZR was selling and he said that they only sold two. The funny part is that they had balloons, posters, banners and all for the RAZR, all in vain.

[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yup! 100% for the rezound, not even thinking twice. i don't want stock android; i want sense. i love how the rezound is shaping up, especially the video camera and the camera, they look great! i'm getting it tuesday when our store gets them in stock :D

i know, right? sad part is, in our verizon website, they said that employees couldn't activate the razr on launch day, much like the iphone 4s, because of the overwhelming demand. LOL. what demand? hahaha
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
2 Issues, there are so many Android phones, those who WANT these new phones can't get them because they just got the last 9 phones that came out in the last couple months, lol. iPhone fanboys only get 1 phone every 12+ months, easier to build up demand when there isn't something else similar coming out. Not to mention, people KNOW the Nexus and Rezound come out in the next few days.
[HTC Rezound] gramsey1911:
Hell I went into a store with my Rezound to buy a case because I heard they were there. When I pulled out my Rezound to put the case on all the employees were like how did you get it early. Told them I preordered it on Wednesday got it Thursday. Even the few customers put down the Razr's to see my Rezound Then most of them were asking about the beats by dre phone. Pretty funny!!!!!Razr Launch fail!!!!

[HTC Rezound] Zytryx:
The thing I hate about the razr most is the bezel is so big, also I don't like phones that have a hump, just seems out of place, I'd rather the whole thing be a bit thicker overall.

I did see commercials on TV for it, guess they didn't help.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
i was frolicking about in the mall today and saw one on display in Best Buy Mobile(there were people in the store, but no one seemed to be paying any attention to it). i decided to pick it up and it just felt all fragile and seemed like if you didn't hold it just right it might slip out of your hands. i didn't really play with it much but did try to see if i could experience the lag and kept constantly switching back & forth through windows and it did slow down. a salesperson was just watching me and probably thought i'm "disturbed"(which isn't far from the truth).
[HTC Rezound] JBO1018:
Seriously?? Have you forgotten that because of Verizons "terrible" marketing 99% of people refer to all Android phones as "Droids." Coming from someone who has "sent from my DROID Bionic" as his sig just makes you saying that, that much funnier.

In photos, the hump looks pretty big. In reality, it doesn't feel nearly as intrusive. You might still hate it, of course. I'm just clarifying that as far as how the phone feels in hand, the hump is the most minor concern for me.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
I played with one at one of my Verizon stores... I just can't get over Moto's failed Blur. The locked BL nonsense, I mean.... No reason to ever go back to another Moto, their track record ruined it for me. (I may change my opinion if Google does successfully acquire Moto).

On a side note, if they would quit having these damn release parties and just had teaser commercials, and NOT let people know that a better phone is coming out 3 days later, and subsequently 7 days again after than. AND, if they didn't tie people to asinine contracts, AND, if there were not choices, AND.... You get the point. You can't hype something that is overpriced and isn't changing anything in the world. How many people do you think will show up at a car dealer to see a new hybrid?

Lol alot of people can barely afford food, why spend hundreds on a phone that will just be obsolete in a matter of months?
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
And a lot of those very same people have one of these phones (smart phone of some sort) in there hands. Just sayin'.... should I give my phone money to them for food instead?
[HTC Rezound] POQbum:
not true ^

I'm around a lot of people who are legally considered poor, most have POS dumbphones with hardly known cell providers, the ones that have smartphones still are having problem affording rent and whatnot but they're not as bad off, and they get their smartphone for free or for something like $50, and again with POS providers that are hella cheap.

It's hard to live in this society without internet or cell phones, and there's ways of getting those things without having to pay a lot.

If someone can afford to blow $300 on a phone but they say that they can't afford food, then they can, they're just dumbasses or lying to your face.

anyway way off topic, just wanted to rant.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
dude.. that's what food stamps and homeless shelters are for. why spend your own money on food. LOL
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
1. So am I, and I'm glad they can get these on the cheap, but, $50 can buy a lot of food.

2. Tell me one thing you cannot do without internet or a cell phone that is necessary to "live in this society", that doesn't fall under convenience, luxury, or I just want it.

3. I totally agree. The world is full of them, and you can't fix stupid.

End rant. We are on the same page, mostly.
[HTC Rezound] Zytryx:
Stopped in my Verizon store to see if they had the Rezound on display (No) but looked at the 3 Razrs they had, it was prime time on a Sunday and no one was looking at any of them.

As I thought the bezel makes the phone bigger then it needs to be, yes it's thin but it's also wide. It also felt cheap because it was so light. The qhd AMOLED was OK but really not that impressive, it just didn't feel like a top end phone.
[HTC Rezound] eallan:
Oh yeah I forgot, years ago they actually advertised effectively showing things the phone could do that the iPhone could not. Now they show a lame motorcycle or lightning bolt and anyone watching says huh?

The dig is automatic I dont see how that's "funny". I'm a phone geek. I like to buy them and try them out. Most people don't.
[HTC Rezound] professor7980:
No the food stamps are for crack they give out cell phones now at the public aid office. Obama Strikes again
[HTC Rezound] Pacifik:
I think most people order them online, you can get better deals and often get it shipped before launch so they may arrive early. The last phone I went to the store and got was a Samsung flip phone six years ago.

[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
been playing around with build.prop tweaks today. here's some that i have had good results with:

setting dalvik to 64

yes, that's high, but, switching screens on the homescreen has been a lot smother. you may have some issues with smaller apps, if so, try a lower setting. stock is 42, 48 may work good if you have a lot of smaller apps.

i also added these, so far so good, no problems. these are older tweaks, but they seem to be working here, but it's hard to tell

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

locks home in memory

ro.media.enc.JPEG.quality=100

makes pics display at 100% quality

debug.sf.hw=1

enables hardware rendering of UI and home

take caution when editing build.prop. the file is located /system

do not delete or change anything else if you don't know what you're really doing.
[Motorola Atrix 2] moofree:
debug.sf.nobootanimation=1

Disables the boot animations
[Motorola Atrix 2] dasfiend:
Do you know if that works with 3rd party launchers (i.e. is HOME_APP whatever is linked to the home button, not hard coded to the moto home app)?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Wow, nice work guys. Quick question, does disabling the boot animation = faster boot time.
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
Not sure. You will still have the android boot animation. You just won't have the AT&T boot animation
[Motorola Atrix 2] mspaulding06:
I tried using the these settings and it bricked my phone. Just FYI for anyone thinking of trying them out.

I think it has to do with the hardware rendering setting, because when I boot the video is very distorted and slow. It then goes black and vibrates every few seconds and I can't get it back. Restore to factory default was no help at all.

Any thoughts on how I might get this thing running again?
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
here's the stock build.prop

if the device will power on, extract it from this zip and try to adb push it to /system

not sure how these settings would brick your phone though. are you sure you added them to build.prop and not default.prop? did you change anything else in build.prop?
[Motorola Atrix 2] mspaulding06:
Yeah, I only added the options listed in the forum post, and didn't change anything else.

The first thing I tried was shelling into the phone using adb, but it didn't work at all in the state the phone was in. After restoring to factory defaults I was able to boot and get the initial setup screen for the phone where it asks you to add your email accounts, etc., but when clicking "done" the app would crash and restart effectively locking me out of the phone.

I'm assuming the crash is because I de-bloated the phone previously, and maybe it's missing a system library? Who knows.

In any case it looks like I may be taking a trip to the AT&T store :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
Thats odd. A factory restore would have overwritten any changed files and added any missing apks from /system
[Motorola Atrix 2] dasfiend:
Did you use a text editor on the phone or on a computer? If you use one that word wraps it will fubar the whole thing.

Here's a list of build.prop tweaks I found searching around, I haven't tried any myself yet, but hey, the more the merrier, right?
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
i used an on the phone editor. windows editors will wreck it, linux editors are fine with build.prop though. not sure what the member who bricked his phone used.
[Motorola Atrix 2] moofree:
I just tested the boot animation setting with a stopwatch and it's pretty much the same time one way or the other.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dasfiend:
Ya, but at least we don't have to look at the annoying super bright white at&t animation anymore. :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Thank you for checking and confirming that. ;) I'll hit the button when I get to my pc.
[Motorola Atrix 2] mspaulding06:
I did in fact use my phone to edit the build.props file (instead of using adb shell). I used the text editor feature of root explorer. I didn't notice the text wrap on the screen or anything like that when I was typing. I suppose that could've been the culprit.
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
root explorer is fine, that wasn't your problem. i use root explorer as well. i think that either something else was changed, or something else is the problem.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jshinn1:
With this setting does it change the display of your contact photos? Which show pretty crappy on the call screen.
