[LG Optimus 2x] maloupagias:
Hello,

I recently installed go launcher ex on my P990 and works like a charm.. However, when I try to add FM radio widget on my home screen, I' can't see the LG widgets section just like at LG Home. Is there any way to add LG widgets on my home screen?

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Maybeyou should install appwidgetpicker from the Android Market and you can position your widgets (LG also) in the homescreen.

Else you can google Home Selector and install the APK file.

I use appwidgetpicker....works very well

Hope this helps. Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] maloupagias:
Thank you for your quick reply! can i find appwidgetpicker in android market?
[LG Optimus 2x] maloupagias:
Found it! And it worked just perfect... Thank you so much!

Hi

As the title saids, how can I made pictures in people app better?

They look nice when you see all contact thumbnail, but when I open single contact

or making a call they look terrible, I can see every pixel.

Is there any easy way to fix this, other than uploading hires photo of every single contact one-by-one?

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0.html

Large photos

Android now supports high resolution photos for contacts. Now, when you push a photo into a contact record, the system processes it into both a 96x96 thumbnail (as it has previously) and a 256x256 "display photo" that's stored in a new file-based photo store (the exact dimensions that the system chooses may vary in the future). You can add a large photo to a contact by putting a large photo in the usual PHOTO column of a data row, which the system will then process into the appropriate thumbnail and display photo records.

EDIT:

FINALLY

a great app that fix resolution of contacts, haxsync, great, brilliant little app, uses facebook pictures

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwyman:
You would have to change as the ones Gmail saves on the server are low resolution.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvaju:
I've tryed to change one contact picture on Gmail, I've put hires photo, but after sync, again its very low quality and ugly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunnogama:
Same here!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobydeek:
Any solution to this?

My Galaxy S i9000 isnt on ICS yet, but i know this will bug me!

So as I understand:

To have a Hi-def contact image in the People app, we need to assign a new photo via our phones.

If we assign a photo via Gmail Contacts, we will end up with a low resolution image.

Thus this is not an Android issue, rather Google need to sort out the Contacts image function in Gmail :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuffyPSP:
+1. i think google has to sort this out. maybe an option to choose HD image or low image.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusoftheUniverse:
Anyone find a solution to this? Only had my phone for one day and its already bugging me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_Tech_Ninja:
Same here.... Looking for a fix. I uploaded my own pic, but I DO NOT want to do this for each contact.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SSK_:
CSI enhance! But, other than that, there's no automatic way.

The contact images from Google+ are hi-res, however.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvaju:
When I put manually hires pictures, after google sync, and installing other rom (also ics) and then restore contacts,again over google - they go back to low quality..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enhanced:
Yup. Notice that after ROM installs, the pictures get pixelated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusoftheUniverse:
You know what i dont get? How does this not get noticed during testing? It seems everyone has this problem...no idea why its happening though
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinik420:
If that's how it was made, its not really a problem to them lol I use Ringo pro for my contacts and it uses higher quality pictures
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacobras:
I think they did notice it during testing. But the Android team is (probably) not the same as the Gmail team. This requires changes in Gmail, but they can't just go over there and say "fix this".

I do hope Google is working on this. I noticed it during the ICS introduction from Google as well: when they demonstrated the People app you could see a pictures of a seahorse that was low-res... :(

Meh, this doesn't look good: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=6b0562c425cc1f5d&hl=en . It's a post from a Google Empleyee who says they'll look into the problem. That was posted in november 2009 :(

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briggl:
I experienced this issue from the very first day of my smartphone life. And google has not fixed it yet.

There are several other minor bugs that were not fixed since Eclair don't know why but how could google not know about those obvious issue and not fixing it...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keks1234:
try installing g+ app and then your contacts should receive better hi res pictures. Of course only the ones that have g plus as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvaju:
I still can not belive how can they do something like this.

Every time someone is calling I see those pixels all over the screen :S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvaju:
FINALY

a great app that fix resolution of contacts, haxsync, great, brilliant little app, uses facebook pictures!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ColdKiller93:
But haxsync is not able to do custom links with your contacts. So if a contact in your Facebook does not have the exactly same name in your address book it does not work. My contacts do look a bit messy because of that app now...

For me it is perfect and easy.

I've realized since move to KK9 and changed to CF Root that I can observe a green spot in the display when taking a photo

This is not a screen problem, as the pictures taken also have the green spot.

I does not happen 100% of time, but mostly.

Cloud you please check in your devices? I would like to know if this is a KK9 problem, a CF Root KK9 problem, or a HW problem.

I'm including a couple of pictures for you to compare.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
Hi All,

Sorry another n00b making a n00b thread.

I bought a second hand desire very cheap under the understanding that "stopped booting one day" - so first thing first, if it is bricked, so be it.

Currently it only gets as far as the white HTC screen.

Now, when booting with PWR + Vol Down:

-Revolutionary-

BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-6.93.1002

RADIO-5.17.05.23

Obviously the PO has been playing around given the unlocked bootloader. I can get into fastboot fine. fastboot devices shows the Serial of the device.

So following the Troubleshooting guide here I attempted to flash a Recovery image as per recommendation. It shows sending and writing recovery.img OK, and the two progress bars display on the phone in line with that. However, when rebooting (fastboot oem gencheckpt), I still can't get into recovery - it goes back to the HTC screen again. Same with fastboot reboot-bootloader if it matters.

***EDIT - kept looking on this forum and it seems as if this bootloader would be write protected against RUU updates? So you can probably disregard what was here. I'll keep looking around, but if anyone has advice feel free!

If I'm missing something silly here, feel free to abuse me while you tell me what it is. Just thought I'd check to see if I'm on the right track or I've failed miserably.

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Download the HBOOT downgrader from alpharev.nl (and the stock HBOOT, too).

Flash the

1. stock HBOOT,

2. the downgrader

3. then the RUU of your choice (2.3.3/2.2 depends on you).

As you said, you can get to fastboot, it'll work.

You'll get a stock, unrooted device, but you can root it later on.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
Thanks for that - I flashed these in this order from fastboot and then rebooted - I can see that it has taken effect due to seeing "AlphaRev Unlock" now, however, can't get the RUU to go - gets to Rebooting to bootloader, phone reboots and gets stuck in a bootloop (I suppose - HTC screen, black screen, and so on). Eventually it gives up and gives [171] USB CONNECTION ERROR. "Reboot Bootloader" from the fastboot menu does the same thing.

I actually have an Atrix so this is not my daily driver, so nothing too urgent, or in fact tragic if it is a hardware issue. I do appreciate any help though all the same! :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Hmm - can be the cable, the drivers.

Even some people said, that using win7 64Bit will get you this error.

I'd check first the drivers. Maybe you have USB Brick as well - search the Dev Thread for a fix - basically 2 commands.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
I was just reading up on the USB brick actually, as you say doesn't seem like too much effort anyway.

I am using Win 7 x64 in fact... I will copy all the necessaries to a USB stick and use a WinXP box at work just to make sure. Thanks again!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
OK, update -

Same result on a WinXP machine trying to flash via RUU.

When I try fastboot oem enableqxdm 0, I get:

partition_read::Too many bad blocks(out of range)

It does say OK after that though?

If I try to flash a mtd0.img via fastboot (I assume I can't use an SD card given I can't boot) with SuperCID as the CID (either hex edited or with the script) I get:

sending 'misc' (640KB) OKAY

writing 'misc' (640KB) ... FAILED (remote: image update error)

It's late here so I'll search more in the morning, but any guidance would be appreciated.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
Should I be erasing the misc partition before attempting to flash mtd0.img? If that's where I've gone wrong I'll kick myself, but thought I should confirm before I break the phone more.

Update:

I grabbed the rom.zip from the temp folder, renamed it to PB99IMG put it on a MicroSD and let the phone do its thing. It worked, in that it performed the update, but Radio_v2 failed - so I assume this means either I have a branded handset that has nothing on the outside (how do I check?) or there is a hardware fault?

Of course, I have S-ON now because everything else worked...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
radio failure means you're kinda fu*cked IMO... I mean I know a user who kept trying a RUU who eventually undid the radio fail but ermm.. yeah usually it means a real brick
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msmith6001:
I figured that might be the case. Given the bootloader was already unlocked when I received the phone, one can assume the previous owner actually knew what they were doing and had already tried to fix it and come to the same conclusion.

I'll update the thread if I manage to fix it, but if anyone else stumbles across this due to similar circumstances, looks like you have your answer.

PS: bortak your troubleshooting thread was an amazing help.

Thanks to all!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
yeah just try the RUU a couple of times (like 10 or something) and see what happens.. if you're lucky you might get a break..

or what you could do is flash the 2.3.3 RUU, hope it works, and if you do get stuck in splash HTC will cover you warranty!! just tell them you try to upgrade and it broke! :D

Ok guys, stop. It is NOT a world phone. It does NOT have a GSM antenna. Wherever you are has a CDMA tower that the phone is roaming to, it has nothing to do with the sim card as it is for the LTE ANTENNA ONLY! Stop getting your hopes up. The LTE OnOff app was built as a universal app, it does NOT detect antenna's. Rezound is NOT a world phone, it does NOT work on GSM.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] mcmb03:
I love em! I'm currently running the Galnet one with the ICS framework ported over. It's already got some ICS stuff implemented too like the lockscreen and keyboard. so far everything runs very smoothly and there are only a couple of noticeable bugs like when scrolling through pic previews in the market, the market app crashes. the latest build was supposed to fix that issue, but i'm still experiencing it. Other MIUI Infuse issues still exist such as iffy blutooth and no hdmi support.

Basically if you are currently running MIUI I'd highly recommend updating if you like to have the latest and greatest and don't mind a few bugs. If you're a fan of stability on the other hand, I'd stick to a later build, like 1.11.9 if I remember correctly, I think I remember hearing to be very stable.
