I know. That's why i said HTC devices do a great job syncing from either the FB app or the built in HTC stream. Ours suck thru the FB app and social hub don't sync contacts anymore in ics :\
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
Haxsync works and as for the dialer I use go contacts ex and never noticed a crop like in your pics. I would say that's stock dialer related, but not sure as I never use it.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] sirocyl:
So I own an HP Veer 4G NA/AT&T, unlocked.

It has an unlocked and well-documented bootloader, the same one as the Touchpad, which loads uBoot-style uImage files.

The hardware specs are available at PDADB, here.

It's based on the Qualcomm MSM7230, like the T-Mobile G2/Desire Z.

They left the CPU's USB boot capability open, for easy development and testing.

It has a hardware keyboard, touchscreen with gesture area (I'd just simulate the nav buttons here before actual work on the gestures), and seems to interface over a 3.1MHz near-field band with an "A6" microcontroller, to talk to Touchstone chargers, and Touchpads' touch-to-share functionality. I'm considering this last part forbidden territory until I can be certain that the A6 controller won't cause another brick, possibly by patching the bootloader to jump over the A6/battery initialization in POST.

I think it would make a great Android phone, and with a good precedent of development (Cyanogenmod on the Touchpad), it could feasibly run an Android build, an Android-based recovery, and moboot, with some tweaks.

I realize this is a big undertaking. It took several months and a hefty developer bounty to realize Android on the Touchpad.

Since I'm not asking for money, the tradeoff might be in how long it takes until first Alpha.

Nonetheless, it seems a perfect target for an Android port, and once I get some things sorted on my end, I'll start looking into the webOS kernel sources for the phone, and make this work.

tl;dr:

An amateur dev with a lot of time on his hands, is porting Android to a new device.

This thread will serve as a base to collaborate on this effort.

Any ideas, advice or comments would be appreciated.

I've never built Android from source, but I am familiar with git/repo (I have checked out from source before), and I'm not exactly new to how Android works, as I've been tearing into it since RC33 on the Dream.

I've built Linux kernels before, and I pick up new things pretty quick.

Also, a couple questions. Should I start with Cyanogenmod, or vanilla AOSP proper?

And would it be any easier/harder to start with ICS instead of Gingerbread?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dastin1015:
There has been some development for Android on the Palm Pre. Google it. Not much works though. It's posted on Palm Central if I remember right

私のEVO 3Dから送信される。
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sirocyl:
I've done a bit of research. One such project is here: http://code.google.com/p/android-on-pre/

It's interesting how this preliminary Android build for the Pre works, in that the rootfs is on a host computer, and mounted over nfs, through USB, and the kernel is booted using novacom, leaving the internal storage/flash untouched.

I don't need this level of abstraction, as I'm aware of how to restore the Veer, and have backups of my nvram/tokens, in the event of catastrophic failure.

As far as I know, the Veer, Pre3 and Touchpad are more closely related to each other than the Pre/Pre+/Pre2, and all of the above are distant from the Pixi, which has an ARMv6 processor.

I'm not sure if this thread belongs in the webOS section instead; although it's an effort to port Android, it deals with webOS hardware.

Hi. I have problem with my Atrix. USB HOST mode not working. Webtop is ok, ADB is OK. When I plug USB HUB Atrix do nothing. Have You any ideas?
[Venue Pro General] gurbina93:
I have a problem, I have looked all over the phone and I can't find MMS settings... :rolleyes:

Checked in the EM menu and in Settings/Cellular

EM Menu (I get a matrix photo when entering, lol)

-Phone Information

-System Information

-RD Test

-CIT

-Protocol

-Service Center

Even doing the "qwertyuiop" trick It stills doesn't appear :confused:

PD: I did the TouchScreen update to 2.0 from EM menu, this bricked my phone! But since I fixed it, I can't use the 7720 update (Mango) or my phone goes dead again(touchscreen not working and if used the phone restarts).

Also changed the original 8gb microSD for a 32gb and working perfectly even doing updates, flashing, restoring, etc... it's like if I had the original memory.

Also tried with earlier versions 7004, 7392 and some other version... (Pre-mango) in noone of these the MMS settings appear in the EM menu.

OS version: 7.0.7403.0

Firmware revision number: 2250.1500.7004.105

Hardware... : 112.576.2.0

Bootloader version: 7.27.1.0

Any idea of to get MMS settings? (or also any idea to get my phone working like if it were new? So I can have everything working as it should again... to restore the touchscreen firmware or all the phone firmware) :(
[Venue Pro General] reybie:
Have you figured this one out? My nephew's phone doesn't have the MMS Settings in EM also and we're stuck.
[Venue Pro General] MJCS:
Uninstall the old em then dial the em again.
[Venue Pro General] reybie:
Thank you, I will try that as soon as he gets home.

Thanks MJCS, that worked perfectly!

Oh thanks MJCS!

But a bit late, I sold my VP like 3 weeks ago as it was and got an Atrix 4G :)

But I was missing WP7 so badly that I had to buy a new VP from At&t (so I can use 3g), so I'm waiting for my unlock code ! but is good to know that know !
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Emama:
While I am still waiting for the shipping mail from 1saleaday.com...

I kept looking for the case here and found these 2 the most people r buying.

Which one do u choose and...why ~:p

http://www.amazon.com/BLUREX-Leathe...9?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322877887&sr=1-9

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005F7KQB6?ie=UTF8&force-full-site=1
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I have the first of the two and love it. Got it for $9 on Ebay with free shipping
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jmsilva22:
I am also waiting on my View from 1saleaday. And as far as the case I'm also going to buy the one from the first link (HHI). Its not real leather but that's no biggie for me. The BLUREX looks very good and a little more compact but it doesn't have portrait mode and I want to have that option.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wmdnc1990:
I just bought the second one the other day... Should be arriving Thursday... I will post a review after I experiment with it...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsweetness:
I've had the Blurex since I received my View from 1SaleADay back in December. I'm usually not one for folio cases, but this one is fantastic. The fit is perfect, the quality is great, it looks nice, and it doesn't add a lot of bulk. It's just an all-around great case. The deciding factors for me were the size and the overwhelming amount of positive reviews in the forums here and on other sites.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jamus28:
The 1st, 360 style case, is poor quality in my opinion. Both are thin leather knockoff.

I would get a rubberized back like this:

http://www.amazon.com/EMPIRE-Black-Rubberized-Cover-Flyer/dp/B0058W77ZG/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1327453740&sr=8-12

And then an 8-9 inch sleeve like this:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Maine_Coon:
I concur.

Blurex case is very good.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] matthieup:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] x51:
Cases

I got my View from 1saleaday in December. (I just ordered 2 more from the recent sale for the kids)

I ordered 3 cases in december:

1) The 360 degree rotating case listed here

2) A case very similar to the Blurex except rather than fake leather it's a carbon fiber texture. http://www.amazon.com/BoxWave-Steal...7?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327526675&sr=1-7

3) A rubberized plastic shell (like you'd get for a cell phone nearly identical to the one recommended a few posts back by jamus28)

For me.. I want something that adds as little bulk as possible, while protecting the unit including the screen. The perfect case for me would be identical to the one they make for the Kindle Fire here: http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Lightw...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327527632&sr=1-1 But thats not an option for the View / Flyer.

So The 360 degree case (1): Well made, Solid Feel, But a bit unstable trying to stand the device up in portrait mode. It's top heavy and falls backward easy. The case is overall very good. It's less bulky than I thought it would be. I'm not at all disappointed.

The Carbon Fiber case (2): (similar to the blurex style) This is the case I settled on and use. It's the least bulky, well made, and offers superb protection. It does not rotate but that helps it be less bulky. I love this case and I'm very happy with it.

The Rubberized Shell (3): the lightest of the 3 but Not for me. It adds bulk as any case does, but it has no real screen protection. It is the most comfortable when using the device since there is no cover to fold back. It does not have a stand if you like to watch video on it though. I knew I'd dislike it when I got it, but it was cheap... so I gave it a shot. For some.. it might be the perfect case.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Emama:
Thanks for all recommendation

I ordered Blurex and have prime shipping!

The sad thing is the estimated shipping for the view is next monday...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mkintop:
I know you already made your choice - but thought I would throw in my two cents anyway as I own both.

Both cases are very nice. Here are some of the differences:

Blurex - a little less bulky than 360. I like the pen holder on the bottom rather than side but since it is leather it does not hold the pen as well

360 - the "hole" in the back makes it a little easier to hang on to if you are walking around with it. As x51 mentioned, it's not that stable in portrait mode (but the blurex doesn't go into portrait at all as a stand). Pen holder on side is elastic and holds the pen much better.

I use the Blurex around the house and the 360 when on the job. Both are nice cases and fit well.

Hope this helps someone.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] x51:
I got my "Shipped" email yesterday.. I'm expecting them to arrive Tuesday-ish
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dsf3g:
Though you've already ordered, I'll just add that I've owned both cases. Currently I use the blurex (earlier model without the pen carrier). The swivel case is a neat idea, but adds too much bulk, IMHO. I was especially annoyed by the ring on the back (part of the swivel mechanism) that sticks out about a quarter of an inch and makes the tablet look like it's hovering just off the table when you set it down.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gordonzhao:
I like my Case-Mate Versant ($16 from Case-Mate site). Had the 360 and returned it, the design was too flimsy and didn't feel solid/sturdy enough. Though the Versant doesn't offer portrait mode, I realize I don't really use docked portrait much so it doesn't matter much to me. Just throwing it out there as an option for you if you need to get an alternative case to the Blurex. By the way, the Boxwave (carbon fiber-esque) case looks cool too.

yes sir if you get it in hands some side by side pics of the sr and Note would be great along with the date and specs of course.

but im really thinking of making the switch so someone actually having it in there hands with a skyrocket in the other can really give us a GOOD review.

no need to write a book or anything, just the basics would be nice.

and Thanks for the heads up.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Apo11on:
@ 00mred00

Once you get it - please dump the rom, put it on some file share, and let the good folks here at XDA root it and start cooking prior to release. CM9 alpha for euro Note with Exynos and HSPA+ only radio is already out there - once we get root it shouldn't take long to port that CM9 to this Snapdragon version with LTE radio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
+1 for no commitment pricing and launch date!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
Pm me on how to pull a system dump

In the past there were two things I absolutely was not allowed to do

1. Take pics (though I took them anyway)

2. Root the phone

Samsung employees have no idea on pricing guys...that is determined by att...so that one will remain unknown.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Apo11on:
I'm assuming you're on PC, not Mac or anything else. Go to folder, where you have ADB installed (once you install USB drivers for PC the folder will be created, usually something like C:\Program Files\Samsung Handset USB Driver) Then change directory in command prompt to that folder with ADB.exe folder and run:

adb pull /system C:\system_dump

and then

adb pull /data C:\data_dump

usually, dumping system and data folders are enough to root.

If you want to dump the whole phone for rom chefs to start cooking once rooted, do:

adb pull / C:\full_dump

Dumping whole phone will take a while to complete. You may need to create those system_dump and data_dump folders or full_dump folder in the root of your C:\ drive - it depends on command prompt version you're using. Older Windows might need it, but not Vista or Win7.

Edit: some data in the /data folder will allow to uniquely identify the phone - it'll list IMEI and other things. Also, make sure not to have emails, where subject may contain personal info - emails wont be readable, but subject will be visible. If you're going to dump and share the whole phone - dont put personal stuff on sdcard or at least remove it, once the rom is dumped to your HDD

Edit2: corrected folder location bug in the instructions above

Probably a release date would be the most beneficial. Anything more descriptive than Early 2012, or Q1 2012.

Although a long shot im hoping for the exynos 1.5ghz(4212 not 4210 which i know doesn't support LTE well) :) its been out for 7 months, and knowing samsung they like to keep it in house. Slim chance but still a chance!.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
Let's see, new Samsung device slated for AT&T soon. What that could be? Skyrocket HD is the only thing comes to my mind :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
They make windows phone too :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
Too bad Samsung has already released this year's Windows phones (Focus S and Flash) :)

There is nothing too interesting in Samsung Windows phone offering coming. Nokia steals all the thunder these days.

Hence, I speculate Skyrocket HD.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
Haha...honestly I don't know what i will be testirng until they hand it to me....only that it could be any mobile device on any carrier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
Are you required to sign NDA for testing? If so, we may see less posting from you leaking these information down the road.

BTW, I really want to know when is Skyrocket HD going to be released?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
Of course. you are correct. there will be devices I can't post about until they are unveiled.. Others are given fo the purpose of getting them out there for people to see (like this note was)

maybe it will be this

Ladies & Gentlemen - we FINALLY have a release date!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
We have a roadmap (supposedly. BGR makes the claim, all other sources are quoting them. I really want to see the roadmap..the Ion and SR HD are on there as well) ....the last 6 devices on roadmaps for att released either early or late :p

Good to see some info out there though. My other concern is the 18th is a Saturday. Historically att releases phones on Sunday I thought.

Will be interesting to see what my friend has to say. The date lines up....he typically has a device for about a month prior to release...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] imitenotbecrazy:
that would be awesome if we would be able to have root and roms already started by release date. I too am hopeful but not expecting an exynos. The hush hush stance weve gotten from sammy on what the processor is has me worried though. youd think they would be shouting exynos and lte from the rooftops if it had it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] krushin:
I would agree... its kind of unfortunate because they want the hype machine to see past those type things... I hate the apparent 6-8 month cell phone life cycle (before new hardware comes out and becomes the "standard")

I am kind of reluctant because the snapdragon S3 is a 2nd rate processor that has been out for some time (in the mobile world) and is going to be replaced very soon. The note itself was announce 6-7 months ago and has been out what... 4 months?

Hate to imagine hearing of the Note 2 in may and then released in europe couple months after that and i just locked myself to another contract just to have something much better come out :-/. Would probably be rocking Quad-Core, or atleast the exynos 4212 for sure, 12 Mp camera, even slightly bigger battery.

I wouldn't care if they upgraded anything else on the note but i would atleast like to see one of the newer better processors in it. Kinda disappointing. Of all the industries i have learned to love and HATE the mobile industry :-/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Longcat14:
Actually, the Snapdragon has a very little less performance then the Exynos, it's just that the Exynos is VERY good at benchmarking, a Samsung plus.

The Snapdragon S3 is MUCH faster then the OMAP4460, Tegra 2, and any other dual cores out there, it's just that the Exynos's Cortex A9 design gives it a bit more performance.

The Adreno 220 is on par if not faster then the Mali-400MP, so you don't have to worry about GPU.

Why do you think Samsung went with the S3, instead of the OMAP? It's faster then the OMAP, and it has LTE capabilities, so that's why it was picked.

I'm sure Qualcomm also made some nice bank from Samsung buying all their CPU's.
