Wow, that all looks absolutely amazing. I've voted this to the portal, it seems they always love stuff about the HD2, hopefully someone will see it there and give you an idea as to how to change the buttons. I too find it very annoying even though it's such a minor thing, and the options/camera button is genius. :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] myself11:
Nice concept!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
I've voted this to the portal. SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] james1123:
Looks really nice! for the buttons; Maybe we could rub the icons off with white spirits (dont know whether it would work) then use some transfers to put teh new icons on? or some stickers would do the job but I reckon transfers would be a more professional finish
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Marvlesz:
I don't think we can rub it off; I assume the shapes are deeply engraved into the button strip. Since they conduct light? or is it just a finish ? And a sticker would block the light.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] theDante:
I did a random grind on mine. The picture doesnt show it too well but it looks awesome and with the Pdaimatejam (the best thing thats ever happened to the HD2) it's a whole new phone.

The HD2 has light pipes for the buttons.. so you could paint black over them then silkscreen the white icons, but you'd loose the ability to have light up buttons.

Hmm... I have a silkscreen department here at work, I might give that a try.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
Surely the place for any stickers is in the gap between the buttons and the screen where it says HTC:p

Nice Idea though.

@theDante, last time I did silkscreen printing was at school, ink everywhere:eek: good luck.

I am not entirely sure I would want the camera button on the left. With Yuki's NODO rom I had many blank photos which were shot from in my pocket, although I think you can disable the camera-on function. It is the LHS and RHS buttons which are more likely to be accidentally pressed. A camera button is needed though for panorama shots.

I hate to throw any spanners but thought the above worth mentioning.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] demaxmeister:
Yeah it's not ideal, it has happened to me once before as well. However, I like keeping it enabled as it does help to snap that perfect moment :) Thanks for both apps, those will come in helpful when we find a way to modify the buttons.

It is really cool.

Very nice!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FelipeMR:
My colab.

I'm working on this issue.

In my opinion this is the best solution:

I will try to produce it in bulk to sell at a price well minimum.

I've tried with adhesives and paint, now I'm trying to improvise or printing adhesive or a way to print directly on the device, to improve quality.

Ideal for key pad is already producing it with the correct image, but to assist the user should be a sticker.

Please, if you liked the previous, collaborate with me to buy keypads for testing. Price $ 10 each.

I now know that my headset is not AVRCP equipped so it will not do all the functions I would like. However i notice when i hold the Call button on my headset for an extended period of time what I believe is the voice command pops up (a little microphone next to the Bluetooth image along the top. Is it possible to reprogram the phone to accept the hold function as a pause/resume for media playback?

Thank you, reminder this is a BT headset not the wired version
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
I believe my G2X is a later model, it does not come with the mini-HDMI, like i guess the first patch used to come with.

Anyway, upgraded to 2.3.3, ADW launcher, nothing fancy, not rooted. But over the past couple of days I am noticing some drop in performance, music skips when i browse through the menus and check e-mail. Also when i hit the unlock botton, there is about a second delay before the screen turns on.

The internal storage has 2gb remaining, my external SD has about 1.5gb remaining. I can only get up to ~170mb of RAM when i clear everything using Taskiller.

Not sure what is happening, but seems to be bogging down.

Thanks.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
On 2.3.3, there's Weapon-G2x by Whitehawkx , with kwes's New Clip Mod. There's BAKA by lotherius. There's Bionic Reloaded by.....me. On 2.3.4, there's Tsugi by lothrtius. Hellfire Phoenix and Cyanogenmod are 2.3.7+ I believe.

Alright well I just downloading the rooted 2.3.3. OTA and I need to get Superone Click next, right? Along with the Clockwork Mod?

I see that there were differences when rooting 2.3.3. I don't want to miss anything.

-ROM

-Clockwork Mod

-Superone Click

-LG Driver

-Tegra driver?

Thats it?

Look under the battery and see what the Model Number is. All G2x p999 phones have HDMI output at the top of the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
All you need to do is use NVFlash. It installs a custom CWM for you. You don't really need root. Once you're done with NVFlash then you're good to go. It's in the dev section, good luck.

No sorry, I meant it does not come with the CABLE. I heard that the first batch from T-Mobile came with the cable.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Wouldn't it be easiest to just go back to the stock version for the G2X, then follow the superone click method?

Maybe i'm just getting confused, but do i need the Nvidia AND the clockwork mod?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lannister80:
Nope! I got one at release time and I didn't get a cable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Well ****! haha it doesn't matter, i have an HDMI cable and it works beautifully. this is easily the best phone i have ever owned.

I'm going to try the NVflash method of getting Clockwork Mod onto my phone...then from there choose a ROM that is higher than 2.3.4. I just dont like these weird themed roms, I like the clean, stock look.

You won't have to root a custom ROM. Sorry if you know this already, I just hadn't seen anyone mention it. You had superoneclick listed after rom. These roms floating around here already have root access. Once you get cwm working, just pick a rom (i.e. cyanogenmod) and flash it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Alright so i follow the tutorial for the NVflash, then from there i can reboot normally, then get whatever ROM i want, and restart/flash and im good to go.

You only need to hold the volume buttons for about 15 seconds. You wont see anything happen until you flash cwm5020, then you will see a yellow software upgrade thing spinning around for a couple seconds. When your PC says done, unplug and you're good

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinWA:
Afternoon,

I recently read how Google pulled official development support for the Verizon Galaxy Nexus (CDMA). I am trying to work on adding AVRCP 1.3 to stock ICS but when I go to build I can't select my device in lunch. The only devices are:

1. full-eng

2. full_x86-eng

3. vbox_x86-eng

4. full_wingray-userdebug

5. full_crespo-userdebug

6. full_maguro-userdebug

7. full_panda-eng

Is it possible to still build AOSP for the CDMA Nexus? Also I apologize if this is not the correct forum but if it is not could a moderator please move it?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike919:
. build/envsetup.sh

lunch full_toro-userdebug

make -j32 (or whatever numerical works best for your PC)

now... I'm just starting as well, and mine builds just fine, but i'm lost on how to sign the CDMA crap so i get data and voice... built for toro last night in about 22 minutes... but when i flashed i had no cell network...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
That is because your vendor is missing proprietaries (most likely) and/or they are the wrong versions.

For example, many 4.0.2 props won't work on 4.0.3 or 4.0.4. There is no special signing involved.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] therealguppy:
well considering that Nook Tweaks was not designed for ICS, I would Not expect everything to work perfectly.

That being said I'm using Eyeballers build with OpenGL and I'm not having this issue. his builds can be found here http://techerrata.com/browse/nightly_kangs/encore

keep in mind that ICS on the nook is still very early in the beta stages and a lot of things will not work or not work as intended.</strike>

Update NVM I can open the audio menu but trying to go into the sub menus cause the app to freeze. Just goes to show you ICS is not ready for a Daily driver yet. still lots of work to be done.

Thatz what i thought too....i use my nook color for music and other stuff in my car and that boost on sound would be really good!!!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Blauhung:
Looks like the audio boost functionality requires some hooks in the kernel before it can actually do anything. I'm slowly teaching myself this stuff but if I get a chance I will take a look this weekend to see if there's any way to port those parts of the gingerbread kernel over to ICS
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzoe:
Good Evening,

I am modifing the kernel source (the wifi part specifically) working on a CM7 system and I want to migrate to CM9 because of the improvements on the system and kernel.

I know I can get the CM9 source code from CyanogenMod Github repo, but the kernel comes pre-compiled. So my question is:

Where I can find the "official" kernel source code that comes with CyanogenMod 9 v4.0.3 v2.1?​

KalimochoAz's samsung-kernel-crespo repo has been last updated 2 months ago, so I guess the kernel updates must be somewhere else.

Thank you in advance,

Renzo

Hi all. I just got my GNex from Verizon. I've heard things about this phone on the CDMA side being abandoned by devs. Is this true? If so, should I get a different phone (I still have 9 days to take it back)? I'm coming from a DX, so I love hacking and flashing.. If this phone is still a keeper...can someone point me in the right direction to a thread for rooting and ROMs and flashing (oh my!)?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Take it back. Get the GSM version. Get anything else.

CDMA is pretty **** to begin with, but Google has admitted that AOSP Android cannot fully support CDMA. You cannot use the Android source to create a working CDMA build without proprietary blobs, delivered by Google, if the carrier permits it.

Google's support for CDMA depends on carriers permitting it. On a Nexus device.

Think about that.

You wont find any shennigance like that in the GSM world because the system is not ass-****ed enough to begin with to allow such carrier-control. GSM is open. GSM is the freedom you want.

Yes. Like the poeople here will tell you: For now the CDMA devs can hack a release together just fine. They can give you a working ROM based on hacking blobs and Android source. But no, but there are no guarantees it will remain that way. One day, you might be out of luck.

The CDMA/Verizon Galaxy Nexus is a carrier-neutered Nexus. It's not the real goods. And it never was. Think about the months delayed release, because a carrier had objections to what Google put on a "clean" developer phone.

The result is carrier bloatware, and Android features like tethering removed.

The CDMA/Verizon Nexus: It's not what you want. It wasn't when it was announced, and with AOSP support taken back, it definitely isn't now.

Just return that POS and get anything else. I've had non-Nexus phones miles more open than the "Verizon Nexus". It's a joke. It's the laughing-stock of the internet.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
Claiming misinformation as fact - check

Trolls numerous CDMA GN threads - check

Listen, bud, the *only* things missing are the blobs, which can be extracted, no need for any hacking ATM, by users.

The fact that you need to result to swearing just goes to show how juvenile you really are.

Bloatware? Two apps? Hardly a big deal unless it is you trying to make a point by drastic exaggeration. Those on these boards who have the phone are running ROMs that doesn't include them so it is opt-in.

Tethering removed? That is just an outright fabrication by you.

Enjoy your GSM and let the OP enjoy twice the storage capacity of your phone and four times the transfer speed of yours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Funny thing is, on ICS the bloatware can be "Disabled" which is basically the same thing as freezing the app in TiBu which also removes it from your app drawer and stops it from running, essentially removing it from your phone.

Oh and I think what he means in terms of tether is that you have to pay to use it, which is the same with any other carrier just with the CDMA model it is pre built in that it is blocked.

Either way this guy is just an obvious troll.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Me a troll? Come on. Sorry for spreading the good word of freedom around the Nexus forums then.

If anyone should be called a troll at this point it should be Verizon. So far they've completely butchered the Nexus program, and nobody is even pointing a finger at them.

Good job. Really. I'd be surprised to see Google even bother with a non-standard carrier anytime again, if the Nexus program isn't sabotaged enough to be dead by then.

I'll piss off. Enjoy your carrier-approved, carrier-branded Nexus.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 PM ----------

On all carriers I have had, I pay for data. How I use it is entirely up to me. Tethering is a phone-level function and not anything the carrier can or should control.

And least of all disable or strip free, built-in tethering from the phone. Jesus christ that is invasive to the point of being illegal where I live.

Sorry. There is a free market out there, and there **** like this is not accepted. I thought people buying Nexus-devices would be aware of things like that.

I guess that defines a troll around here, being European.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
What did Verizon do in all this mess other than put their name on the back and put some (Removable) bloatware on the phone?

You don't back up your points at all but whine about how terrible this phone is, obvious troll is obvious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
They stripped the built in, free Android-tethering and replaced it with a for-pay service?

In the rest of the world, you'd return the phone over a defect like that.
