On the former, yes. As to the latter, that comes out a bit wrong. The devs would port the app, and Verizon would patch it. This started out taking a week, then it was cut down to a few days, and then it was almost daily. It became too much work to try to keep up with them. In a sense, I guess they did "give up", but they sure worked their butts off well before that point.

That sounds really interesting. Looking forward :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] DavidinCT:
Agreed, make sure the youtube links work. As they say, A picture is worth a thousand words so a video must be worth a million.

I use that site to check out achivements after I beat a story, There is always a video to show the easiest way to get it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] corlygunnz:
I got the video link to work in the application bar. So it will open the YouTube page of the video. I'm looking how to just implement the video to have no need to open the page and just watch the video. But with my programming knowledge, who know how long it will take.

Is it beta worthy ? I would love to check it out even it works partly. I found myself last night on trueachivements and xbox360achievements for about 2-3 hours to get another 175 achivement points :)

And yes, I have been addicted to achievements all of a sudden...

I look forward to this one...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] corlygunnz:
I haven't released, because I'm only have Max Payne 3 and GOW1 implemented. If you want m to add a game that you working on right now, let me know via pm and I will add it and give you the app for now.

Games that I would want for at least for next month or so...

-Spec Ops: THe Line

-MW3

-MW2

-Black Ops

-Need for Speed Hot Pursit

-Enslaved: Odyssey to the West (yea, I know, older game)

-Forsa 4

These are the games in my current stack, last night, another 115 points on MW3 and Started BLOPS on Veteran for the achievements, Spec Ops should be here today, so that will be tonights game. And most Wp7 games...

For the last week, I have had a Mini Laptop (one of those netbooks) with me when I play, on one of the sites to go through each achievement one by one...

Do you have to do each game, or are you pulling data, so you can access their index ? What would really be cool, is if you can use trueachievements.com, as they pull your data from xbox live and will show each achievement you got and what ones you missed with tips and videos for each game.

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] DavidinCT:
I know your new at programming, I have been trying to learn too, I want to get there (got any advice ?). It would be great if you could find a way to index these sites and pull down the data directly from the xbox360achievements so you dont have to update it for every game.

The app looks good so far, just dont you, in time, getting board with it and not updating it (did not mean any offiense, life gets in the way), it also would make it easier, as you could update the app and not have to worry about adding every game, one by one...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] corlygunnz:
I know what you mean, im just don't know how to do it at the moment. I'm trying to look how to do it but keep failing to find out. If anyone here can give me an advice it would be nice. Atleats what the process to learn.

A little practice, Try to find out what type of fourms they use there and then see if there is a way you can use that. Anyone who does a plugin of that type is based off the type of fourm they use.

It's too bad. I used it and tried to give it a shot but, with out the updated posts and content from the sites (with only one video), I found myself still sitting infront of my TV with a laptop to help get those achievements.

If you got permission from the websites and could index the posts with the links to the videos for each achievement, this would be great but, with out that it does not help too much and puts a high level of work for you.

Great idea though...good luck. I wish it worked out, I really do as this is something I would use....
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] corlygunnz:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nasir javed:
hy every one,

i think android is missing one feature of daily use

it is sd card password protection. i want to protect my sd card data with password but i dont find any app or any thing to do this. on my old nokia cell , protecting sd card was very easy. i want to protect my sd card so if i lost my sd card then no one access files on my sd card ..........

plz help me if you have any solution.........

At this time i have no nokia set so i want to know if my sd card is password protected and i put this sd card in my android set then what will happen??? will it work and ask me for password??????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolsandie:
All SD card could be read on a computer. So I'm not sure whether you can password protect it. Do a google search for related infos.

And if you're looking for apps, which locks your pictures/videos/files etc. then you may try this app --> File Hide Expert. Also, you could find more similar apps in Play Store. Just install and try, and use the one that suits your choice.

~Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nasir javed:
are you sure all sd card are read able even when they are pasword protected?????????

i think long time ago i try this and my computer was not detecting my sd card and after removing password it works again!!!!!!!!!

and i have installed apps for hiding my sd card or its content or lock etc... but actually i dont need this and i think its impossible for android to do this may be in next version they add this feature! ..........
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
You'd need some way of password protecting the files themselves and not just password protecting access to the sd card from within android. Otherwise someone could just put the sd card into a reader and bypass the android restrictions.

Zip and Rar archives have password protection capabilities but then you'd have to extract and repack files each time you wanted to modify them. Microsoft Office formats have password protection, not sure who supports this on Android.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Myron.S:
I am not sure if Android can assign a password, but I do know that in every SD card CPU there is a facility where a passphrase can be programmed into it. My E61i phones can do this. They program a passphrase into MicroSD card so those cards only work on those phones and with everything else the card can't be properly recognised. This is not encryption. It's similar to a lot of USB flash drives where a PIN is required to use it or access a hidden partition. With an SD card a passphrase is needed to unlock access to the card. Forget the passphrase and you may as well throw away the SD card.

I too am looking to see if there is something on Android that can use this standard security feature.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xaadilhx:
I wondered why android didn't have this feature when I first used it, since most probably don't encrypt their cards, meaning their files are easily accessible if lost out stolen.

Old symbian Nokia phones had the set password function from the system file manager, so that you needed to supply the password to the phone before using it, I don't think windows could open SD cards with passwords if you used a card reader, you would first remove the password on the phone. Also formatting would be difficult if you forgot the password.

I'm unsure how secure it was but certainly I'm sure it's better than none.

I believe this may even go back to the days of mmc 8-10 years ago, still after all this time or smart phones and what OS's don't even acknowledge the feature, I wonder why?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ElAguila:
I have visual voice mail installed. It appears to be working but I was wondering something. When I go to the settings for my carrier in the voicemail settings is has a phone number which isn't mine(I assume this is due to the visual voicemail). When I go to the call forward settings the phone number it has listed for unaswered, busy, and unreachable are all the same but they are not my number and they are not the number that is listed in the settings for my carrier in the voicemail settings. Is this normal? I recently came from sprint where the number was either our phone number or a google voice number and I am not familiar with what is normal on att.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
Its normal. It would also work with your number, but AT&T uses those based on where you are.

Hi,

I've tried to root my Kindle and ran into some problems.

I installed the drivers and they seemed to work fine but I couldn't establish the ADB.

when I go to the CMD and type in there "adb devices" I get this:

C:\Users\Nikita>adb devices

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

I noticed almost 900 views on my thread: "Need help restoring contacts..." 'under HTC Polaris: Touch Cruise ' page, but no replies...and I apoligize in advance to the moderators if I'm breakin' a rule by posting on the ?&answers page but, I've spent weeks/months reading other similar problems from multiply sites but this site seems to be filled w/the most knowledgeable people who are seemingly wanting to help

I've tried to do the whole copy/paste Pim.vol, renaming the old one and deleting it, soft reset...but still...exact same-same. What the heck am I doing wrong?

A few times the process bricked it, but somehow I've got it back to what it was like in May...when all this started...all post May calls since are gone but they're just numbers w/out names, so no bother as i don't wanna possibly write over Pim and 4ever write over info. Strange how SMS's are still up to date tho and with the right contact names.

Also, I can read thru the Pim on my laptop w/the Pim.vol Extractor which this site linked me to, (thank you) and can see all the info jumbled up...but it would take months to redo by hand.

Please, someone out there has gotta know what I'm doing wrong and set me on the right course. I know I'm a bit of a tecknodork, but I'm not clueless as how to fuss w/puters and such. And since reading so much of this site, I'd really like to flash my phone to Android OS, but I'm scared I'll never get the contacts and calender info back. Please,someone lend me a hand.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Craysh:
This is rather annoying. Randomly, when I'm in an app and I hit the home button it takes me to my home screen but one of the folders that resides there opens like I pressed it. It's not always in the the correct spot either (the icon does not move, but the folder is open in a different place than it should like over the clock/weather widget).

Anyone else having this problem?

Probably cause of the fact that T-Mobile announced they are officially carrying the Note as of Aug 8th. So that is why he said wrong forum, cause of that fact.

But you will have to wait for someone else to reply. Given the fact that you have to flash different modems which can cause the count to raise, therefor Samsung will know you are not using the device as specified, yeah it can be problematic.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShreddinPB:
So I got my Nexus 7, and think its awesome! I got mine so I can install it in the dashboard of my car to use as media player/navigation, all that good stuff.

I thought it would be great to use a bluetooth media remote attached to the steering wheel to control basic functions. I purchased the Satechi Media Remote, and for the most part it works perfect! There is only one main issue and one minor issue.

Main Issue:

The remote has a button on the bottom middle that has a square on it. It works just like pushing the Home button.

While it is in my dashboard, it will be rare that I need to go to the actual home screen, and instead i would like it to take me to the car dock app I use. I have been trying many things to get it to work and I can not get it to function as anything else!

I tried using the app "External Keyboard Helper" and it worked for remapping the other 2 lower buttons on the remote (which is part of question 2), but I can not get it to remap the middle button. When I use the degugger in External keyboard helper, if I push that button it doesnt log the keypress and goes to the home screen like it is supposed to. I tried manually setting the keycode (102) to run an app and it still just goes to the home screen.

The next thing I tried was to edit the actual keylayout files like what is outlined here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695936

Doing it this way I can not seem to get it to change any of the three buttons to anything else. At first I couldnt figure out which .kl file to edit, so I searched and replaced all instances of HOME and MOVE_HOME in all the files, and moved them back to the device, still no change.

Do I need to make a cutom .kl with the vendor name and id in the title?

Where do I get that information from?

I tried editing the file Vendor_05ac_Product_0239.kl since in its comments it says its for a "Apple Wireless Keyboard", which this device is supposed to emulate to work with ipods/ipads, still nothing.

I am at my witts end trying to find the right way to remap this one button on this little remote hahaha

The second issue which is very minor, which might not be solved in here. I want to map one of those other lower buttons to google voice search. When I run the setup for "External Keyboard Helper" it has a section for mapping the running of an app to a key, which worked for car dock and a car music player. The problem is, when I go to the Application shortcuts portion of the app, the only thing I see listed in there is "com.google.android.voicesearch". If I set that as the app to run when I press a key I see this..

"com.google.android.voicesearch is not installed"

Is there a way to launch google voice search without having to click on the microphone in the search bar?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShreddinPB:
I got the thing working! I had to make a new KL file for the "keyboard"

I found this thread that told me how to get the vendor and product id, that seemed to be what was missing.

http://www.thriveforums.org/forum/toshiba-thrive-development/9626-how-create-customized-keylayout-any-usb-bluetooth-keyboard-rooted.html

The file name needs to match those.. its information is

Vendor ID 05ac

Product ID 023c

so the kl file is named

Vendor_05ac_Product_023c.kl

The scan codes for the three lower buttons are

161 (bottom left with the keyboard logo)

172 (middle bottom with the square)

113 (bottom right with the mute logo)

I changed the one for the bottom middle to SEARCH, and from that point on I could remap the key with the app External Keyboard Helper.

Next thing I need to do is figure out how to run a app from a keypress without using that remapper.. and how to start google search from a keypress
