[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
there is some work on going on in the DHD forums with regards to this which means we should have it soon, but to be honest i think all that work will be a bit of a waste with the announcement of sense 4.0 next month. Just sit tight and be patient and we'll get something good ;)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
The main reason is, that the Sensation has a qHD screen.

If we port the ROM, resizing and optimization has to be done.

Whereas now, luckily for us, HTC have announced plans to upgrade the XL which has the same screen as us.

So we just need to wait for a leaked XL ROM, and devs will port it.

It will be muh easier that way, rather than having to resize and optimize the original Sensation ROM.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
+18224.52

That's right. And that's the reason that the best ROMs for the DS (like Endymion) are based on official Sensation XL (Runnymede) releases instead of the Pyramid (Sensation qHD) - they just fit better overall! So just wait a bit and you'll have a very very sweet tooth munching on ICS with a Sense 4 icing!!
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Love that concept :D

Pretty soon i think Endymion will evolve to ICS + Sense based of the XL :D

Or maybe Lowveld might give a different approach and name it as a new ROM :)
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
:p

I personally don't think Endymion should ever be taken off the grid, and turned into an ICS based ROM. It should continue as a Sense 3.5 GB ROM as it has always been. To morph it into an ICS based Sense 4 ROM would be the same as having developed Hyperion into a Sense 3.5 ROM, and doing away with the original Hyperion (which fortunately, did not happen!)

So I think Hyperion and Endymion should remain as proud flag-bearers of what GB with Sense was meant to be... and the ICS version should be inducted as a new member into the elite family of Lowveld branded ROMs.

Lowveld, i know you're reading this...so please do consider keeping Endymion alive as is... and do not merge it with the ICS branch that you will eventually develop - something that we all know is inevitable. (I mean that is at least more realistic than expecting you to release Android 5.0, right?! :p)

P.S. : Oly, I just realised that we've hijacked this thread and turned it into an Endy thread! +1 for Viral marketing!!
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Hehe :p

I suppose...

All devs have different approaches to their ROMs...

RCteam and Virtuous focus on a specific device port

E.g - unity = sensation, affinity = XL

And they are usually based on the latest build available .

So if the XL got ICS, Affinity will be updated to ICS.

I thought lowveld was having the same approach:

Hyperion = Desire S, Endymion = XL.

So if we did officialy get ICS, Hyperion will be updated to ICS etc.

So I assumed that Endymion will soon be based on XL's ICS :)

Oh well, I guess all devs have their own approach :D

Who cares anyway, so long we get to taste some sweet ICS, and Sense 4.0 icing :D
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Just read it. :)

Also in response to Oly, I don't connect ROM names with particular devices. Hyperion is Hyperion, Endy is Endy, not a "XL current port". I even stopped rebasing Endy on the latest XL builds as I don't think they have anything to offer.

So, no, Endy wil not "go ICS". It's also not going away, while I don't go away. I don't stop supporting anything while there are users, period. I'm becoming a little stretched, currently maintaining 3 ROMs and being a team of 1. But fortunately the community tends to help itself, and lots of questions get answered without my direct intervention (thanks Enigmaamit and all of you! ;)).

If I ever develop something over ICS, and that's a big IF, it will be a different ROM. And, as always, I will only release it if it is consistent, bugfree, and adds something to the community (Remember the no-go on the Bliss port?).

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Thanks for clarifying lowveld ;)

I just made a wild assumption :D

Either way, it doesn't really affect us.

I do hope that porting the XL ICS will be an easy job, with no bugs - like Endymion :)

Yeah, its strange how to Bliss (bassed on virtually the same specs as Desire S) had some nasty incompatible radio stack thingy which broke Bluetooth :(

Hopefully ICS doesn't change too much!

It would be nice to see what you could do with a future ICS base though ;)

Just wondering though, will that mean a new kernel would be required? So unity9 base won't be compatable for future ICS Sense?

Hi all,

I've seen something fairly similar before. Make sure you try different brand cards if at all possible, and it wouldn't hurt to format them on a regular computer as well. I'll see if I can't dig up an article on the formatting type that was generally considered best for our phones....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AMWM:
I now have the T-Mobile Samsung GalaxyS2, but "live" in the MS Office Outlook world & have my own e-mail/server - I do not use Google mail or calendars or contacts, or anyone else's services. Critical syncs are contacts (@900), notes and calendar, w/recurring events. I know, I know, Android and MS Office don't like each other. But T-Mobile doesn't have the iPhone and I wanted a web friendly device (ie - not Blackberry). Have purchased Companionlink/DejaOffice and spent much time talking to their tech staff. They say the Samsung Galaxy S2 is especially difficult for their software to work with. Constant issues of duplicates and lack of true 2-way sync, even if settings look right. In the entire T-Mobile Samsung GalaxyS2 forum, I couldn't find a single match to "sync with Outlook". I thought everyone with a corporate job lived in Outlook. Is there some obvious solution I am not aware of? Please help. Also - what about upgrading to IceCream Sandwich? I heard this might have some sort of native sync with Outlook? Really appreciate any good advise. Thank you, AMWM

Syncing to Outlook - Touchdown not an option with real Office & POP3 server

Hello, and I really appreciate the three replies so far. Unfortunately, Touchdown doesn't seem to be an option for a true two-way seamless sync with real Office Outlook, for someone using their own POP3 server. I looked up Touchdown, and it indicates the following on the main page:

Note:TouchDown does not work with POP3 or IMAP servers

Note:TouchDown requires a server, and does not work with Outlook directly

I do not use Exchange, I use real Office, and my e-mail server is a POP3 server. And I don't want to "push" info, per se, I need a true "sync both ways" so that all info entered into my PC and all info entered into my phone will sync with each other, with latest changes kept. My old Palm Treo with Windows Mobile synced perfectly, Blackberries sync perfectly, and I am told the iPhone will sync perfectly as well. I just assumed Android would also - I thought regular Outlook was the most commonly used contacts/calendar/tasks/notes for professionals.

How is everyone else doing this?

p.s. I spent $40 on Companionlink, which is not working well. I am not afraid to invest in the right product, I'm just afraid that Android is inherently the wrong platform for me. But since I just spent $530 on this phone, I need to figure out how to make it work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There is another way to do it , not quite as seamless but it works just fine, actually there are a few apps that do it ...

Setup your gmail account on the phone , you need one anyway for the market ..

Setup one of the many apps to sync your outlook to your gmail ...

On the phone setup your gmail account to ONLY sync Calendar, and Contacts, uncheck mail ...

Setup the email on the app to pop your mail, make sure both phone and outlook are set to leave mail on server , for however long you need ...

Wanting to directly sync Android with Outlook...

Dear tcboo,

Thank you very much. I already have the Google acct set up on the phone, I have already purchased Companionlink, which will also sync Outlook with Google, and my phone already pops my mail directly, leaving everything on the server, so the mail is not a sync issue at all.

So if I use Gmail as an indirect sync facilitator.....What about Notes and Tasks? And how does this indirect 3-way sync insure that most recent changes are kept if the two devices don't speak directly? I've also now heard that Google calendar doesn't do well with all of the recurring calendar events I have on my Outlook.

So Android really won't talk to Outlook? If Apple can do it, why not Google/Android? It's not like Microsoft is better friends with Apple than they are with Google, and if they let the iPhone sync directly with Office, why can't Google get them to let Android sync directly? This doesn't make sense to me. I thought this could not really be the case, and I must be missing something obvious. But I guess Google isn't getting the kind of outcry or backlash I would have expected. Maybe all the Office people just stick with Blackberries and iPhones?

Any news if ICS will sync directly? I really do want a simple, direct fully functional (including notes and tasks & reoccurring calendar events) wireless sync, and it's sounding like I might have to limp along until I can justify a different phone & OS.

Again, though, I really appreciate your effort & advice.

Best regards,

AMWM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Watcher64:
The trick is to make sure you leave outlook open and it is set to sync on change ..

I think the iPhone syncs directly , because they just want to put the slam on M$ where Android is not that worried about M$ ...

You would be surprised to find out how many corporations are going to Google hosted mail , M$ still rules it, but not by as much as they did ...

It is not a perfect solution, that is the problem when you are tied to a proprietary system like Outlook, you either pay through the nose to get software to force it to do what you want or , you adapt the way you do things ...

I never had any issues with the calendar, I will try and find the app I used to sync, I quit using outlook a while back but I may still have the link, if I can find it I will post it ...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ronin4740:
Surprised Companionlink isn't working for you. It's pretty well rated. I'd be curious to know what it doesn't do well for you... Not sure there's another product out there which syncs Outlook to a phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AMWM:
Direct Outlook Sync Looking Up w/Companionlink!!!

You are right - Companionlink is the only game out there for what I want, at least according to my research. I have had Companionlink since Oct when I got my phone, with constant issues. They told me it is not an Android issue; it is specifically a Samsung GS2 issue.

Well, they are working hard to fix it. They have updated the Companionlink again, so I updated that on my PC. They have a Beta version of the DejaOffice App which they instructed me to down load from their website. Instructions are:

"First, please update to the current in-house beta of CompanionLink (companionlinkDOTcom/inhouse[/url]) and the beta of DejaOffice (dejaofficeDOTcom/androidapp)."

please sub DOT with . - it wouldn't let me post the actual websites

You have to make certain to allow downloading non-market apps on your phone, as this Beta version isn't in the App store yet. Also - make sure that your phone is set to save contacts to the Google acct, not to Phone. Well, I have done this, wiped everything on the phone, did an initial 1-way sync from Outlook to populate the phone (which always worked okay), & then tested some true 2-way syncs. Of course make certain the Companionlink sync set-up is correct (sync both ways, latest changes kept). Also - you cannot use Android calendar, and do not tell it to sync to Android calendar. just put the Deja Calendar icon where you want it. But you do use the phone contact button. Also, they recommend turning off the Google Sync, which I have done.

It is working!!! I am cautiously optimistic. I have just successfully 2-way synced changes to calendar, contacts and notes, and both phone & PC updated correctly. Also - I am doing this as a wi-fi sync, which is important to me. You just have to make sure wi-fi settings are correct. This is a first. I think the beta changes have fixed the major issues. So if you are going to buy Companionlink, make sure you are getting the beta of both Companionlink and DejaOffice - do not bother downloading the Android Market App of DejaOffice.

Good luck!!

[Fascinate General] martyxng:
I have a Fascinate running a "PowerWashed" FroYo build. This has been running fine for months, but the past few weeks, I occasionally don't receive calls. I'll get a notification for a new voicemail, but no missed call on record.

This didn't bother me too much until yesterday. My wife and baby were in a car accident (rear-ended by a 23 year old, texting of course....:mad:) My wife repeatedly called me. The calls never made it. Only after frantically calling me time and time again did she leave me a voicemail, which I got the notification for.

Could this be a problem with the rom? The radio? I'm not sure where to start. I don't want to spend a lot of time flashing new stuff if I don't need to. If I have to flash anyway, I sure wouldn't mind flashing an ICS build if there is a stable enough one for Fascinate.
[Fascinate General] scarfman4:
This has been an ongoing issue ever since Froyo was released. Verizon says it was supposedly fixed in ED05 but reports are mixed on whether or not it is. Also people say this is worse in areas where LTE is present but I don't know how substantial that is.

What version of Power washed are you running? Have you tried upgrading to an EH03 from like Superclean3 or GeeWiz 2.4.2 or 2.5?
[Fascinate General] kadin.zimmerman:
I would update the radio to EH03, because it is a reliable radio version. I had a similar problem but with my version of ICS because the radio the ROM came with was jacked up.
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
ICS builds not come with a radio...its uses the radio you previously had.
[Fascinate General] kadin.zimmerman:
Must have been a different one then, but either way using stock radios does insure greater reliability
[Fascinate General] mkuehl06:
its the same radio if you would ota the stock update or flash the radio via odin. it was pulled directly from someones stock. so im not too sure what you are talking about when you say "stock radios insure greater reliability"

---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 AM ----------

geewiz or scms2 are good ideas, pair them with either kgb or geewiz kernel and your phone will fly. either use ec09 or eh03 modem. imo eh03 is faster and ec09 is more reliable when it comes to not switching from 1x to 3g.
[Fascinate General] martyxng:
The rom I used is "powerwash v1.2 testkernel 08152011". So, I guess it's a bit old. I want a rock-solid rom with 100% incoming call reception success. ICS preferred of course, but would take Gingerbread if the call reception is more solid.
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
Just flash the ec09 or eh03 radio...when i ran powerwashed froyo, i used imnuts pbj kernel with ec09 radio. Rock solid setup with no missed calls. But yes upgrade to something like superclean3 with kgb kernel or cm7.2 with glitchv13.1
[Fascinate General] martyxng:
I can't seem to find just the EH03 radio. Where can I get this? Also, can I flash through Clockwork, or do I have to do this with ODIN again?

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
While considering good hardware of Nook Tablet within this price range, i was wondering if it is possible to completely washout B&N stuff from it and use just NT hardware but own custom android? I think, even now, when it is rooted, it still use B&N ROM and when it is reset to factory defaults, it will have B&N's factory sw. however, is it possible that even with restore to factory defaults lead the NT to the custom android os (as it was fresh installed).

i think for this we will need to modify kernel? or other than kernel, is there some other firmwares installed inside the device which communicate with the existing kernel? and if there exist, can those be also customized, flashed the custom firmware?

thanks.

Please do a little research in this forum before you ask questions.

There are two different ways to accomplish what you want. Indirect and Snowball. Do a search.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
as you mentioned, indirect & Snowball... aren't they rooting methods? what i learned is that even if it is rooted, when u go for hard restore, u will get factory defaults? (plz correct me if i am wrong).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tep065:
As stated above, you need to look through the forums here. Especially the DEV section. There is a 1.4.1 CM7(edit:NOT CM7, but stock rom) available in the Dev section, there is a 1.40 CM7 almost ready to go(hopefully later today) and there is a CM9 almost ready to go. You need to root first with the methods mentioned above, snowball removes all the B&N stuff and makes it fairly vanilla, then install the CWRecovery to do a backup, then install either the current 1.4.1CM7 rom available, or wait for 1 of the other 2. You would need to read and research everything else involved to get to the final rom step. But your answer is YES. :) Just do some more leg work through the dev forums.

EDIT: hehe, my bad, STOCK rom, not CM7 rom currently in dev section. CM7 and CM9 on deck for release still.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
i am going through all the threads... hopefully i will get into something more. thanks :) looking forward for CM7 & CM9 actually.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] phitch:
As of right now, there doesn't appear to be a fully usable ROM, just pretty much home launcher modifications, they still have the underlying Barnes and Noble junk. I think the big reason is the system partitioning done on the hardware makes it difficult. The most promising looking rom appears to be the CM9 one, as it looks like that cleaned (or merged) the partitions so that you won't have the annoying limitations on space. Essentially making it a Galaxy Tab 7.7.

That being said, it seems to me, that the fastest way to get ICS on it, once the partitions have been cracked would be to port it from the Motorola Droid Razr. Reason being is that both use such similar hardware it is hard to distinguish one from the other spec wise and I would imagine since they use nearly the same resolution as well, some minor tweaks would be all that was needed. (I am not a developer of course.)

The Razr runs a Ti OMAP 4430 dual core @ 1.2 Ghz with a PowerVR SGX540 GPU. The Nook Tablet runs a Ti OMAP 4430 dual core @ 1Ghz with POWERVR SGX540. They both have 1 GB of RAM, both have 16 GB storage. Essentially, the Nook Tablet is nothing more than a large Motorola Droid Razr.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] phitch:
Of course looking at the Motorola Bionic and Razr development, it seems like the bootlocker is holding up process of development over there. Companies really need to stop with bootlocking these phones.
