Just got an email from motorola, saying the full android wear sdk has been released

http://developer.android.com/training/building-wearables.html

I am glad they didnt stick with notifications only!! - Its now possible to make wearable apps too :victory::victory:
[Wear OS General] senseijuan:
Android Wear SDK

yes we can now create not just notifications but also stand alone apps for Android Wear
[Wear OS General] CommanderROR:
But still no watchfaces, right?
[Wear OS General] ritdaw:
Yes this can be done!

[Wear OS General] CommanderROR:
Thanks for the link. It appears to be a bit tricky right now, but I'm sure the devs will find a way atound the current problem. The way I understood, they can make custom watchfaces, but can't install them yet due to permission problems. Maybe Google has to open a door somewhere for this to work...
[Wear OS General] diamantericos:
To put it simple if it's android it can be rooted so once that's obtained watch faces etc will begin develooment.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharky444:
With the app DicePlayer I want to stay at version 2.0.53, because from 2.0.54 on AC3 support was removed.

To not accidently update to a version >2.0.53 (e.g. by hitting Update All) I've used the function Detach from Market that is offered by Titanium Backup.

Unfortunately this detachment is being resetted on every reboot of the phone (Nexus 5 with 4.4.4).

Is there a way to permamently detach an app from Android Market?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HsHTCsen:
Hi, I realise this is an old post but it's something I've been trying to do for a while too. I've finally accomplished it successfully so I thought I'd share it on in some of the topics.

It works by changing the apk signature so the app typically becomes 'different' to the one on the Google Play Store and therefore doesn't appear in your Google Play Store list. But by doing this, you won't be able to update the app from Play Store.

How to:

Need Root.

First do a TB backup of current apk just to keep it.

With a file explorer, go to root\data\app and copy the app apk that you want to change and paste it somewhere on SD card.

Now uninstall the app

Download and install: ZipSigner by Ken Ellinwood from Play Store.

Open ZipSigner, choose input file and navigate to earlier copied apk

I used key/mode: auto-testkey

Sign the file

The new signed apk will be put in the same directory the original file was.

Now install that signed apk and your're done. Check market.

Worked for me - hope it works for you!

No....

Ask in xperia overlay thread in cross device development for Sony devices
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
You should mention this has nothing to do with Doomlord. He has already given his device long ago to someone else, who didn't have time for developing (good of him that he at least tries to pass the device on). For the actual call for donation see here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53843601&postcount=177.

I don't know about donating to them though, see the other semc debrand thread for my reasons why.

Nisu4717, you shouldn't be the one asking for money, Nick is and he has to convince us himself. I'm having a hard time believing someone who has been holding on to this device for months now without a word (even if it is with reasons). And honestly, if I were in his place I'd just pay the €15 myself, even if he has genuine reasons not to have developed anything, it's the least he can do.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
OK.....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zaidx:
I think 15€ is not so much to ask for donations
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
The problem wasn't that they were asking for €15, I've donated a lot more than that already to other developers. What was my problem with it was that nickholtus has received a device for free, sent to him by Doomlord, who himself received that device from a donation by a part of the community (and has done great things with it), and nick hasn't done anything with that phone for over half a year. So now all of a sudden he rightly decides this wasn't fair and the device should go to a developer who will actually do something with it, only he chooses a developer who apparantly isn't willing to pay the transportation fees and he's to broke (cheap?) to pay for it himself. Is it fair to us, the community, to be asking for a donation to move the device that some of us have already paid for? Doomlord never asked for a donation to get the device to nickholtus.

When I donate to someone, it's to support that developer, not to buy off a developer to keep on developing for my own device so to be clear I didn't participate in the donation to Doomlord. If a developer wants to move on, that's fine by me, I only donate out of gratitude for work that has already been done, not for future work.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zaidx:
Totally agree with you

And come on they're two men if it was 15€ then both of them could pay 7.5€

Hey everybody,

As the title may imply, I am a user of Scratch Wireless. I accidentally erased the stock ROM (their custom version of JB 4.1.2) without taking a backup of it through TWRP and as such I'm in really desperate need of this ROM.

Is there anybody who happens to have a copy of it on hand which I may use, or are there any ideas on how I should go about solving this problem? Anything helps.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Lucian Armasu:
Anyone? I'm also interested. I backed it up. But then I may have wiped the device again after that, because I can't see anything in the Restore in TWRP...

So i went in and deleted my custom rom (which had kit kat on it) and began to wipe my stock rom. Thats when i get the error

Hi,

Ordered a Vario 2 from a T-mobile store about 4 weeks ago - still out of stock. Tried to order on-line, order was processed successfully but then had a follow up call saying its out of stock.

I really need to get off my current tariff so hope they sort something soon!

Is anyone else in this position/has anyone else managed to obtain a phone in the last month? Any T-Mobile insiders have an idea when your getting some?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi there, if it's t-mobile UK you are referring to I ordered mine 12 days ago online and received it the next day. I was told on two occassions when I called them that they were out of stock, but one day I rang they had 500 odd in stock. That is when I rushed my order through online.

This would mean I had mine when your order was waiting. I'd ring them and play hell if I were you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] SideBp:
Thanks for the tip off g00nerz. I guess there possibly working through a back log of orders, that said, I am not impressed at having to wait a month when other people have got one very quickly - I'm going to give them hell tomorrow!

So i guess we will still be waiting a while then !!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] peekbee:
I spoke with T-Mobile yesterday as I was expecting a swap out unit today. It appears that the current batch they have in stock is being held back for quality checking. I had a problem with mine (another replacement received Monday) which indicated that the manufacturer (HTC) has not carried out the vendor specific setup properly (ie keeps asking for a network unlock code). I can only assume other stock units have got the same problem.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tricky911t:
Since T-mobile introduced the new WebnWalk tariffs on Oct 1st 2006, the Vario2 has flown off the shelves becuase the handset doubles as a USB modem for laptops and the WNWPlus is a better package than anything Vodafone or Orange offer with their data cards. This is why I bought one to try out for my company, I know of another company that bought 31 for their sales staff in one hit and more of my customers are doing the same having been pleased with what I've told them already.

T Mobile takes the phone off the website when they sell out which accounts for its dissappearance. I must say though as a business customer the service is fantastic, everytime I have called CS I have got through in under 2 mins usually it takes a few rings once I have got through the menu system to the right department and am very pleased with it. I've got my TT6 installed with my GPS236Slim receiver, can take calls whilst its plugged in to my laptop as a modem and Remote Access (Terminal Server) is usuable even when not in a 3G cell so I'm in heaven and it works on the norfolk broads of all places!!!!!:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Ah that's not so bad, then. Never having used T-M before I didn't expect that. I would have thought that just marking it as not currently in stock would be a better option that pulling it, but maybe that's just me. :)

I guess I just check the site to see when it reappears, then!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Awesome. I just had a call from T-mobile UK. The Vario 2 is now in stock and I can order one for delivery tomorrow.

I had to check on some things so called back, spoke to someone else, and suddenly they've not been in stock today and won't be available until next week.

I've never known anything like it... if only orange or vodafone matched the web n walk tariff then i'd be off like a shot!!! (i think its ony a matter of time) if anyone from T-Mobile is reading this "this get your act together".

I ordered mine about 1 month ago from tmobile uk, via the website. the next day I got a call saying out of stock for at least 3 weeks. they asked me if I would rather have a vario 1. you can guesse what I said. anyway I waited and it arrived about 2 weeks ago. all I can say is WOW what a "phone". so usefull, and the web and walk for only 2.50 a month (because of the 5 per month discount) is brilliant. I am on the flext 20 with web and walk. so for 22 a month I get 500 pounds worth of handset, 34 worth of calls/texts and 2Gig of internet! no wonder these are flying off the shelf.

the little quirks are annoying, ie the engaged tone through speaker, no direct access to a pound sign on the keyboard etc. but wow so cool.

Hi All,

Just to let you know rang t mob today and was told that the supplier is having trouble sourcing screens but we might get them by the end of the month. Hopefully this might mean that HTC is attempting to resolve the screen issues. which is good news. On the other hand the likely hood of getting one by the end of the month looks close to zero. but fingers crossed. If anyone has one one of these please let us all knoww so tht we can grab them.

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Well as much as I never trust a CS person's report of a technical issue (never spoke to noe that got it right yet), considering the reported issues with a considerable portion of the Hermes units' screens out there, that sounds like it actually makes sense.

Either way, I'd rather wait and get a better product that have HTC/T-Mob ship out known crud.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] oac966:
Quick update - Just called T mob and they units are back in stock.. My order was still in line but when i called them they processed it straight through. so now tomorrow i will get my grubby little hands on this device finally !!:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Strange. Still not on the site, but I've also just ordered one from T-Mob, too, to be delivered tomorrow. Got an email this morning stating that they have 16 in stock.

£90 on Flext20+WNW, which is apparently also discounted £5 per month for the duration of the contract. That surprised me so I asked the guy to verify it - twice - and which puts the total cost over the 18 month contract at £495.

That's the exact retail price of a TyTN at Expansys, but with an 18 month Web n Walk and phone contract thrown in for free!!

Either (a) the guy got it wrong on the permanent £5/month discount, (b) T-Mob are hoping to pull back lots of cash on extra services, or (c) it's just a pretty damn good deal right now.

Either way, I'll see what I get tomorrow/Saturday, and hope that the phone works well and the contract is priced as stated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] shabba007:
Their quota must be 16 in stock because thats what they told me when I rang them on the 31st. Arrived today. Likeing it already. Also you'l find that the first 3 moths of web n walk are free mate. so the total cost for 18months will be £472.50 + £5.99 for delivery which they didn't waive for me. That £5 discount is a standard offer they're making so the guy hasnt got it wrong.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mr_Ray:
Well that's even better then. I could have sworn that I read that the £5 discount was for the first few months. Maybe I rememebr that from before September or mixed it up with the WNW free for 3 months.

Anyway, bottom line is that for anyone wanting to buy one, ignore the website and give them a call. They're in stock.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] SideBp:
The deal I got was Free WebNWalk for 3 months (£7.50 a month saving) and a permanent £5 line rental discount - therefore my Flex 25WnW costs me £20.00 for first three months and £27.50 there after.

Had my phone two weeks now and continuously impressed by it - probably the best phone I've had (and I got pretty comfortable with my C500). The size is spot on, screen is a billions times better than my old m2000 and the build quality feels "germanic":- in fact the M2000 nearly put me off PDA phones for life (poor OS, bad battery life, loss of data under dead battery, frankly crap build quality, poor screen etc.) but the Vario 2 leaves me only to write a recommendation for anyone pondering getting one.

You shouldnt be disapppointed - I waited over a month for mine and it was definetely worth the wait -- hang in there! :)
