ok so i just got the evo 4g lte.. coming from the 3d.. on the 3d we had a menu botton.. where or how do i get into the menu on the lte!!??? i dont see it in the lil book either!!!! lol i goingf craqzy!!! plaese help!!!!! thanks :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
Pull down the notification bar, find the settings button at the top right.

ICS did away with the menu button, now apps have their own built-in menu button (looks like three dots, usually).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sim-X:
I think it's stupid how they did it. I found the menu key much more useful then the recent apps physical button. Some apps the menu key spans across the entire screen on the bottom. Not sure what they were thinkin, I'm getting used to it but holding home to bring up all your recent apps and clicking one was much better than swiping back and forth.

hi!

I have a big problem because it can not download any rom, I tried with 3 different but they all appear to install fine but when starting not get to do anything.

As I am very smart, did not back up what I already had rulando, so I have now the phone dead.

I also tried the SmartFlash utilzar but instead may go in update mode I enter the recovery by the method of removing the battery.

I'm out of ideas.

Thanks in advance to all.

The dv6qe is the more powerful, but doesn't look as nice as the envy or xps14z. I'm going to be doing light processing, and probably playing some games on it. I'm not sure how many, but most likely some Crysis 2, at least. I'm leaning towards the dv6qe, but I wanted to hear from anyone who's bought this laptop, or knows anything about any of them.
[General Questions and Answers] ayush000:
goto xoticpc(dot)com and check their lappys(especially sager and MSI ones)

for $939.93 u get intel 3610M(i7 3rd gen) ,nVidia GT 650M graphics card which is far better than ones u suggest and even better than nVidia gt555M,8gb ram,full HD screen. to be precise i'm talking abt this lappy

Sager NP6165

plus its quite customisable and build quality also gud

otherwise buy this Lenovo Y570 08626JU Intel Core i7-2670QM 2.2GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB, 15.6-inch, 1GB Video card(nVidia GT 555M) for $749.00

u also get free shipping
[General Questions and Answers] vx117:
If you're really not in a hurry to buy a laptop, I suggest waiting a month or two for ivy bridge laptops to trickle out. Otherwise, go for the dv6qe, you NEED a discrete graphics card for Crysis 2. Even though it has a AMD cpu, its more than enough...
[General Questions and Answers] martyzzz:
I agree with VX117, the Ivy's are major energy savers so they should give you longer battery life and are about 10% faster than the Sandy's

As for Crysis on a laptop... you are gonna need some serious GPU power to play that game smoothly on a laptop, think at least GTX660M or higher but these cards are gonna cost ya.

The Dell Laptop you picked has an internal on-board (in processor) graphics chip, you wont be able to play crisis with that.

The other 2 have AMD GPU's onboard, i dont have lots of experience with AMD but me personal would go for Nvidia.

Good luck choosing
[Android Apps and Games] RobertM2:
Hi guys,

Been reading xda for and now guess is my time to post something. :) For about two month I've been working on a 2d engine and now it is very close to being finished.

Before releasing the engine itself, I wanted to post a demo here to see that you think about its performance, etc.

In demo you can

- throw bombs by pressing and dragging your aim from the red "X".

- pause by pressing the "search" button.

- open menu with the "menu" button, choose timer or impact bombs.

The engine itself extends a SurfaceView, so to start using it, you'll just need to initialize it and setContentView.

RoboLogicView roboLogicView = new RoboLogicView(this);
setContentView(roboLogicView);

And to add actors, you'll just need to put a PNG drawing, along with an XML file describing its physical parametrs, into the assets folder and add it to the engine with just one line of code.

Actor tree = roboLogicView.createActor("tree", 13, 19 );

As for speed and performance, a reasonable size "level" give me 35+ FPS on my Nexus S.

Let me know what you think!

P.S.

At first I wanted to call it RoboLogic, but now I see that someone already has something under that name in the appstroe. Maybe you could suggest something better?
[Android Apps and Games] mikep1993:
Looks really great. I only get 27 frames average on my HTC OneX so there's some place for improvement ;).

I'm no game-dev for now but i plan to teach my self some of this stuff in the future. Perhaps you or your engine can help ;)
[Android Apps and Games] RobertM2:
Sure, the engine's gonna be out in about a week, so hurry up. :)

And nope, there's no place for improvement, it already is squeezing everything it can out of the phone :) it can be made faster only by having less objects in the scene, yet 27 is pretty good anyway. Anything above 18, i guess, looks smooth.
[Android Apps and Games] mikep1993:
Yeah it was very smooth so no problem ;). I would really like to find out how to make a simple game ;). I've ideas, but i am to stupid to use the most engines ^^

So i've done some simple Plain Java + Android Apps...

[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
Dears,

Hope my question finds you well , 1 week ago , i have flashed PrimoS-v4.0 ROM which was working find before i suffer from my problem.

I become not able to slide down the notification bar when holding my device in normal position , but i can pull it down when i rotate it :o

i suspected the ROM and flash another one which is Fallout , but the same thing occurs

Also flashed Endymon 3.1 , and also found the problem exits !!!

plz i want your help to overcome this problem
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Very strange, sounds as though the digitizer at the top of the screen isn't working, if you run another app, like the browser are you able to access the address bar ie the top of the screen? try a drawing style application (ie Paint from PC) and see if you can draw at the top of the screen?
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
i have really done what you said ,, i can open browsers and write normally , even after rotating the device , i can touch the items from that area and it works

i don't know why that happened , also before the problem appear permanently , it was sometimes work and sometimes not

i was restarting my mobile think of ROM Bug , but it didn't work after that starting from yesterday

can this problem be caused by kernel 3 ( Sense 4 ) ??

but as i said i flash another ROM of Endy 3.1 with no luck !!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
the fact that you've flashed multiple ROMs suggests a device issue?

Are you S-OFF or htcdev unlocked?
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
HTC DEV unlocked , and still S-ON

this will play a role on that ??
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
It could do, it will mean that you may still have the PRIMO kernel?

Have you been using the command

fastboot flash boot boot.img

from your PC to flash the boot image (kernel) each time that you change ROM?
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
i have already flashed the boot.img and do that with any flashed rom

my suspect refer to PRIMO ROM , as the problem happened when i flashed it ,, is there anyway to totally remove anything related to this kernel ???
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
If you flashed the ENDYMION boot.img extracted from the ENDYMION ROM file then you should have done so....

It may well be worth, repeating what you've already done, just in case you made a mistake?....

Copying ROM (Endymion) onto SD card

Booting into recovery

Wiping/formatting ALL partitions (data/system/boot/cache)

install the ROM (flash the ZIP)

then use the fastboot flash boot command with the Endymion file.
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
just noticed something i want to say

when i try to wipe dalvik cache , a message appears every time

E:unknown voume for path [/sd-ext]

also i remember something , when i flashed PRIMO for the first time , and after boot a " Encryption unsuccessful " screen appeared .. can that help to know the root cause ???
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
that sounds related to your sd, have you another sd that you can use instead?

Swyped from my DesireS
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
sorry , i don't have another SD Card , but to be sure , i saved my data , formatted my SD card and partitioned it using recovery to 2048 MB and 64 swap , installed fallout and flashed boot.img

After all of that , also have no luck , i don't know if i should visit any HTC Store or i can fix it myself using any help from xda !!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm sure it's not related but you don't need swap on your sd on this device it has plenty of main memory

you could try service Centre

See if any one else on here has any input

Swyped from my DesireS
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
I have got my mobile fixed , it seems that the problem is famous in some of HTC Devices.

The Service Center has replaced the screen with a new one , and it's working normally now

Thanks alot :)

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jfg69:
I hope someone has successfully swapped screens, i"d hate to go and buy a new tablet. :mad:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DemonicPhantasm:
It should be possible as long as the screen/digitizer is available on the market somewhere. Also, someones opened one of these before, I believe it's connected via ribbon (no solder) if that's the case the only annoying thing about it might be if it's glued to the front face or not.

I've replaced screens on a lot of things previously. Just never had to look into a nook tablet before.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] brandogg:
I've replaced the digitizer on a Kindle Fire (and just about every cell phone and iPad) which was very simple. The LCD and digitizer are one piece on the NT, which makes replacing a screen more expensive, but also a bit easier (with no risk of getting dust or debris in between). Having said that, I've never opened a Nook Tablet, but I believe it should be a very easy task if you've ever worked on a modern cell phone. Ifixit has tear down right here, not a full how-to video, but it looks very easy.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] balrog558:
I checked out that website and it shouldn't be too hard to replace. Mybmain concern is the price range for the LCD/digitizer of around a hundred dollars. If someone can find a better deal, id love to hear about it.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tknighten:
I've taken the covers off the nook color and that was pretty simple. Look it up on YouTube, not as difficult as you would think. I think (depending on how much you got it for) it could be worth repairing.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jfg69:
Not having luck finding an LCD in stock.. also, some seem to be calling the screen "For Nook color tablet" Is that implying its for a nook color or just that its a color screen for a nook tablet? lol..
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] balrog558:
I've come across a few referenced that way so they can emphasis that the color is a Tablet. Avoid those,as they are meant foe the nook color and I read that they have a different screen than the nook tablet
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
i agree with @balrog558. the NT screen is a premium one with very good specs. the marketing blurbs say that it is and when you look at it closely, then you gotta agree with them. probably, the screen is the most expensive part.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kittyrina:
I found a site called portatronics dot com (I can't post links yet) that has them. I am just not sure which screen I need personally. My son dropped my tablet onto a cement floor and the outer glass cracked but the screen under it still works perfectly. In fact the everything works perfectly, no lines in the screen and anywhere I touch it, it still works as if nothing is wrong, there are just cracks on the outside. I don't know if this is the "digitizer" or the other one and from this website they have both and I'm not sure which one to buy.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rpjakus:
The Portatronic's website will repair yours for $100 (they will not sell just the part). If you want to do it yourself, then PowerBook Medic will sell you the part for $70. I have tried to seperate the LCD and digitizer without success. I feared that the prying needed to seperate the two would wreck the LCD.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] selotkd:
I replaced the LCD and digitizer on a nook Color it was pretty easy I found the parts for as low as 45$ I had to dig a little. And there was a tutorial on YouTube on how to take it apart and change it. It wasnt too bad. Good Luck!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
I take no credit for any of this, I have just put together things I have found on various threads.

As you all know the touch screen calibration that runs at boot does not work with any of the newer kernels as you cannot see some of the cross hairs to tap. I have personally NEVER been able to produce my own accurate ts-calibration file and have been using an ancient one that I downloaded back in the early days of FRX (thank you arrrghhh). Hopefully you have a somewhat functional ts-calibration file as you need to carry out this procedure from within Android. Here we go... (it's easy)

1. Download HtcCalibrate_WVGA.apk, thanks to lukas.pce, attached to first post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1457343 to your device.

2. Install HtcCalibrate_WVGA.apk

3. Run HTC Calibrate and follow the instructions, tapping all the points (I used a toothpick for added accuracy)

4. When complete the app will report 'Calibration complete', tap 'Done'. Your screen should now be accurately calibrated for

this session

. Test to make sure it is working correctly before proceding to next step.

5.

Now to get the calibration data to stick after reboot

: Open your file explorer (MUST HAVE ROOT ACCESS; I use ES File Explorer with Menu>Settings>'Up to Root' checked) and navigate to /sys/devices/virtual/input/input3/ there you should see a file named calibration_points.

**It seems that in some builds (perhaps depending on kernel version?) that the devices get defined differently and I have found the file calibration_points in /sys/devices/virtual/input/input2/.

**So if you can't find it in input3/ then check input2/ (I haven't seen it anywhere else, but it probably could be in input1/, 4/, or 5/ as well, if not in the first two).
​

6. Finally copy calibration_points to /sdcard/ (the root of your SD card), delete your existing ts-calibration file (or backup somewhere if you want) and rename calibration_points to ts-calibration.

**Nand users see this (thanks wizardnight!):

Done. Your phone should now boot with the calibration data you created.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] wizardknight:
So that is where it sticks the file. I have been trying to find that out forever. Cool beans.:)

I had been using an old version of GBX0B on an sd card to make a decent ts-calibration file. Kind of a pain as you have to load up WM, then GBX0B to make the file at boot time (and it wasn't as accurate as the HTC one), copy it , and then reload the GBX and paste it.

BTW on the nand version (GBX0* + 3.3.x kernel) it needs to be placed in /data/
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] JDog2pt0:
Why couldn't you have posted this sooner :p When I was using GBX0C I couldn't find the file anywhere
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
Ha! :D Sorry, I just found it today. Your problem was prbably that you looked virtually everywhere! ;) It does seem an odd place for the file to be.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] CodaHighland:
Would it work to bind-mount that file to /data/ts-calibration in the boot script, so that running HTC Calibrate will automatically write it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
That I do not know. I have never looked at the boot script or bind mounted anything. But automating this does sound like a great idea!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] wizardknight:
It would be amazing if a dev could do a reverse compile on this app, and put in an option to select the save location. One can dream. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] wizardknight:
I was taking a look at the data and time stamps on calibration_points, and it seems that there is a script somewhere that takes ts-calibration and overwrites calibration_points at boot time. If that is correct disabling that overwrite would mean the app could work fine as-is.

Unfortunately just renaming the ts-calibration is not enough. During the boot process it creates a new one with a set of values.

I found this bit of code that might explain why we are seeing this overwriting.
