Thanks [MENTION=5832829]Zenith[/MENTION] [MENTION=6012697]halloarno[/MENTION] for Testing Initial builds.

For Android Enthusiasists

( Q )What is DragonTC?

-> DragonTC is a Custom Clang Toolchain. More info about it can be found in THIS Thread

( Q )Why Clang?

-> Clang is an Upcoming Replacement of the GCC Toolchain. Google is Adapting more and more Android Repositories to get compiled with Clang. Currently some of them are Compilable (some /external projects, /frameworks )

Advantages of it AFAIK are

-> Preservation of Code - The Original Code is retained in the Runtime Mode too, which is less possible in case of GCC.

-> Easy Debugging - Clang, when used in Compilation, provides a Easier Understanding of the Error which we Encounter. Sometimes it just tells us what to do in order to solve that Error. Thus, Clang becomes more Developer Friendly than GCC Toolchain

Currently, Clang can't be used on All Android Sources due to Incompatibility issues (with ARM AFAIK), So GCC is used in that case.

[Xperia SP Android Development] TechnoSparks:
Hello. I just want to drop by and say that this is a great ROM! Kudos!

Sorry for teh englisus. M no americano n british.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Someone have problem with AFH? I cannot download the file
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
It's okay now. Since it shifted to Google Cloud, it's more faster than before.
[Xperia SP Android Development] biswatmak:
ROM's really great !!

one thing though when you scroll the album list in the android music app, some kind of disorientation of the list happens. This does not occur though if you use the dedicated scrolling tab on the right of the screen
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
Yeah, the ROM is still in Beta stages, so try other Music Apps for now. Idk, but I don't find CM Apps, so no CM File Manager and Eleven Music Player.

Asking would be good when the ROM gets out of its Beta Phase
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
Gestures worked for Validus.

Here's the Apk. Place it at /system/priv-app/DeviceSettings/DeviceSettings.apk && Set Permissions to rw-r--r-- (644) && Reboot
[Xperia SP Android Development] biswatmak:
Can the advanced reboot menu be activated, I don't see an option in the developer tools..... should a xposed module be used for the same ??
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
It's there at Settings -> WolvesDen -> Hardware buttons -> (Power Button Tab) Advanced Power Menu
[Xperia SP Android Development] SatrioDwiPrabowo:
Awesome ROM bro
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
A Week over, so a new Validus Build!

Changelog:

[*] Some Features Added

[*] AOSP tag bump ( r30 -> r43 )

[*] (Forgot to speak about this) USB Configuration is now Persistent through Reboots. The Option of Selecting USB Config has been moved from Developer Settings to Storage & USB -> Internal Storage -> (Three Dot Menu) Advanced -> *You get it there*

The Third Point as mentioned isn't a bug getting solved, but the Unchangeable USB Configuration which is a part of the MarshMallow Storage Policy (which sets the USB Config Back to Charging after removal of USB Connection)

[MENTION=6049586]Arvind7352[/MENTION]

Using v9.3-RC1 , it has the following problems

1.The inbuilt SlimLauncher is not working ( Unfortunately, SlimLauncher has stopped)

2. Camera is not working ,it says " Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped. ".But the Gallery application is fine.

And , THE CAMERA APP WORKS BY DOUBLE PRESSING THE POWER BUTTON WHILE ON LOCK SCREEN !.

3. No option for NFC

4.The information of the file to be received by bluetooth is blank while using the dark theme

All others are fine , Ultimately Smooth :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
1. Knew about that (since first build), Looking for solutions as I'm the only one facing this. Use Nova for the time-being ( If it works, I'll publish the apk here, then it will be included in future builds )

2. Solution - Remove "Camera" Shortcut on your Homescreen, and Bring Snap Cam to Homescreen - it works. Shortcut is Faulty

3. I'll try to get it back

4. Theming is in Progress, Next Priority after bringing up "Stability". So you may find some "White in White" or "Black in Black" themed situations. Using other themes with "Light Mode" enabled works okay.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to get NFC and SlimLauncher okay.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arvind7352:
Update!

Changelog:

(*) Added NFC (working)

very smooth and stable thanks much
[Security Discussion] TransformsIntoAGuitar:
I think this is the right place to post, since it's a security thing, although it's nothing to do with hacking.

When I was on JellyBean (turns head and spits) and SlimKat I used Secure Settings and Tasker to switch the pattern lock on and off depending on my situation (I mean, I had Tasker and SS change all my sound, screen and radios settings at the tap of a scene button). Now that I'm on Lollipop I can't use SS. Is there a way to easily toggle a pattern or PIN lockscreen on and off? The stock lockscreen and 3rd party apps require the pattern or PIN to be reinserted TWICE to enable them. I want an app that remembers it and doesn't require it to be re-entered to enable/disable.

(GS5 Neo, rooted, stock 5.1.1)
[Security Discussion] TransformsIntoAGuitar:
I've found something I can work with. Using shell commands I can emulate touches to activate/deactivate this:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] laughoutloud123:
the htc tytn iii

this thread is for what you want to see in the next tytn iii that will be sent to htc in January

What i hope is that they combine the htc tytn ii with the htc touch dual imagine the possibility

i also hope that htc will add more multimedia features to the htc tytn iii because then it will be the greatest phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] srmz:
And a VGA screen for me please.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] decepticon:
VGA screen, 600+ mhz CPU, 8GB onboard storage, stronger GPS, 128MB ram, go back to the Wizard/Hermes keyboard slide from right to left, an keep the longer stylus, so much nicer to use than the telescoping style.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mikeeey:
the kaiser has 128mb of ram. you wouldnt need to include an already existing feature in your new dream device, only better fetures.

btw i like the way the keyboard comes out much more, the reason is because it's better for gaming and emultors, more are compatible with the keyboard that way.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] forcedalias:
Give me my IRDA back!

Make the keyboard slide like the Wizard.

VGA Screen.

Anything else will be gravy but taking away the IRDA was the biggest injustice.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gogol:
Checkout E-Ten M800. The only hope, they will increase to 128 MB RAM, but anything else ... nice :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ziddey:
faster cpu. (This was my first windows phone and honestly I was expecting a lot more. It's loads better than my old 6682 but still it's making me keep my laptop that I was hoping to replace with this phone)

faster gps lock times if possible

support for sd or minisd. cheaper and larger storage and shouldn't take up too much room I'd imagine

if they wanted to keep the tilt, have it click lock in tilted position. I find it always sagging down when I'm using it.

make ie able to browse websites while they're still loading. it's terrible right now. hopefully firefox mobile will be great

ccd camera

irda would be nice if it could work as a universal remote

make the touch screen much better. learn from iphone
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fuzzycuffs:
I hate to say it, but:

VGA screen (or higher res), more built in RAM or at least cheaper flash, faster CPU, lower latency data speeds, thinner design, multitouch... a lot of the things the iPhone is doing. Now, I'm no iPhone fan, but they do get a lot of things right. I'd be super happy if I could get the functionality of a WM phone with the looks and hardware of an iPhone (and a little thicker for a real qwerty keypad).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
too bad multitouch is patented by apple, so unless you think HTC is going to license it from them (which they wont) you can scratch that one off your list
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] petard:
I dont understand why multitouch is so popular? It requires you to use your finger, no style. No accuracy. When do you even use multi touch? To make pictures bigger and smaller? What else needs multi touch? Most of the "multi touch" features can be done without multi touch.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Ypocaramel:
Probably not a big thing on this forum, but a nicer camera, ideally with a xenon flash to replace a compact for everyday shooting. After all, if it can navigate, surf and e-mail, why not take pictures?

Bigger screen, even if it means a little bigger size. The E90 and iPhone are good examples of this in operation - less scrolling.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fuzzycuffs:
AFAIK, they only patented a method of sensors for multitouch, not the idea of touching two things at once. The latter has been around for 20 years.

The Microsoft Surface table is an example of multitouch technology, they just use different types of sensors than the iPhone. If HTC or some other company develops a way to register multiple touches, then it would be fine.

Although, to my original point, multitouch isn't that big a deal to me. It's more the svelteness of the iPhone that I dig, although it's functionality is severely lacking.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Deathace:
VGA Screen

Faster CPU 600/800mhz

More on-board memory ram & rom for future upgrades without needing to upgrade the device

External Storage (Via MiniUSB for 300gb HDD)

Wizard Keyboard Open (more people use it in their left hand not their right and push up with the thumb ready to type)

Keep the full length stylus that rules over the telescopic one

Camera mode choice of auto focus or normal point and shoot and bring back the flash

Make all utility buttons on the sides the same height as the current (OK) button not like the current camera button and keep the power button lower

Allow more customisation without needing to hack programs.

Multiple SIM card support (Contract & PAYG with call waiting between the 2)

Thats about it for now :D

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] forcedalias:
They say it's got a lot of RAM. Would explain why it's missing UMTS, HSDPA, a secondary camera and GPS.

However I do agree with you, it would have been nice if our WM6 devices ran as smoothly and were as fun.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] wywywywy:
A transflective screen... please :(

It is really stupid of them to not have a transflective screen on the Kaiser.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thelawnet:
a radio (FM and ideally AM).

VGA screen

faster CPU

support for full-size or at least mini-sd
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] guinevere:
VGA screen...I still dont understand why all PDAs dont have them.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ghl10000:
+ maybe 256 MB RAM (though I enjoy the "luxury" of 128 MB at the moment :-)

+ somewhat faster processor (e.g. 500, max. 600 MHz --> consumes more energy !)

+ a stronger battery !!! --> 1500-1600 mAh

+ a VGA Display (that of the imate Ultimate 8150 is cool)

+ agreed: Consumer IRDA for use as remote control woudn't be bad, but only optional

+ better camera binaries; a 3 MP for a phone is quite ok, but the camera binary is lagging and should be improved by a quick firmware upgrade

+ separate headphone jack

All in all the TyTN II is by far the most exciting PDA I've ever had.

Lies absolutely smart in your hand and the slider mechanism is gorgeous.

I had the TyTN I before. Nothing to compare with the TyTN II.

All I can say: well done HTC !

Just consider our proposals for future improvements ;-)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ghl10000:
And NO !

Not going back to MiniSD or full-sized SD !!!

I have a 6GB MicroSD now in the TyNN II. It works fine.

Only 1 week away from commercial availability of the 8GB MicroSD.

SanDisk will soon also come up with faster versions of the MicroSD series.

So why going back to a form-factor, which wouldn't bring any real benefit (and the MiniSD was only a transient standards, which is dying out at the moment).

Let's use full-size SD for "real" full-fledged digicams and MicroSD for phones and small PDAs !

I've been sceptical about MicroSD in the beginning myself. My biggest concern has been on how MicroSD would catch up in memory capacity with (Mini)SD.

The industry - to my big surprise - understood the market demand this time quite well and sooner than I expected the memory size-factor "exploded".

8GB MicroSD cards initially weren't expected before YE2008 or early 2009.

Now they are (almost) materialized...

12, 16 and even 32GB MicroSD cards are expected in 2008 and 2009.

(Only to mention: for my first digital camera in 2000 I purchased a 32MB CompactFlash card for the price I get today 3x a 6GB MicroSD card.)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Triune:
I would personally like:

VGA Screen

1 Ghz Processor

8Gb On Board Storage

5mp Camera W/ a flash that actually works affectively

4G data speeds.

Better Audio Speaker

Built In Itunes

Video Conferencing (Front Facing Camera In The USA)

Stronger Bluetooth

Built In Bluetooth Audio Routing

Built In Youtube

I know i'm asking too much but if this were in a phone, laptops are officially worthless to have. This is probably what you'll see in phones in 2015 and then we'll be complaining on how it's too slow and we want more. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pierrohhh:
2 sim card slotes!!! i travel alot and i would loveeeeeeee to be able to only have one phone on me
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] afro_thunder:
petard, if you owned an ipod touch or iphone you'd realize the difference. Multitouch IS accuracy with fingers; I have the fattest fingers and I very rarely make keyboard or icon tap errors (probably just as many as I would with a stylus on a WM keyboard). I'm no Apple fanboy, but I do own a ipod Touch and a tytnII, and my itouch has a MUCH easier, more enjoyable experience using my fingers than tytnII does with a stylus. Just my $.02
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ms0529:
Next Gen

VGA screen, standard 3.5 MM headphone jack, vga outlet for .ppt presentations from the phone, IRDA back, go back to right handed phone, ie, keyboard slide from the left, scrolling roller on the right, lose the micro sd card, standard sd card or at least mini-sd format. Much, much more memory! True touchflo capability, open source for programming, lose the camera or put a decent one in the phone, this one is pretty bad. Much, much more powerful battery, at least 2300 MaH or more, as much as possible. The standard 1350 is way to anemic.

Much more customization of GUI capability.

Next move is to lose the laptop while traveling.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dolbe:
+mainly VGA

+Video out capabilities

+Better battery or atleast better battery consumption,

+more storage onboard 8GB min.

+the MicroSD card is fine as it is

+processor should be 520Mhz more would kill batteries fast. unless they use the newer low power consumption processors that are being made for laptops in the next year or so, then we could be looking at 1.5Ghz processors in mobiles that use the same power as the current 600Mhz prosessors.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ericc191:
+ VGA

+ Nvidia GoForce

+ Stronger GPS

+ Better Camera

+At least 2GB storage

+ Keyboard like the original TyTN

+ Lose the Spring Loaded Slider. Again, the original TyTNs was a much better design

+ Less buttons on the front
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mr4000:
I would like a small pointer device integrated in the keyboard, so I dont need to touch the screen when browsing (even in opera mini). Mini trackbal (like in some other phones) of touch button device (like in toshiba laptops) would do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] draxredd:
- graphics hardware acceleration support
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Steve-C:
Better camera! Really, this thing is meant to be 3MP, but so far I can't tell the diffference between it and my old HTC Universal 1.3MP camera (and yes I have played with the settings!) On the camera front, either bring back the useless LED flash (I want my torch back!) or give us a real flash.

.avi capture format for video. This is a MS software based device, yet the videos from the camera can't be played on Windows Media Player as they are captured in .3gp or Quicktime format.

3.5mm headphone jack so I can connect to an outside source (like my car stereo). Although I am one of the lucky ones with the o2 Stellar varient that came with an adapter. Or even a standard 2.5mm handsfree socket so I can connect any handsfree I want to it.

Infra-Red! Such a handy little tool, especially if ConsumerIR is present.

USB-host would be nice to connect to external devices.

FM radio? Probably never use it, but like IR, it's nice to have.

Sort the charger location! It was better at the rear of the device (like the HTC Universal, when the device is in landscape mode) as the current location makes it uncomfortable to type when the Mini-USB is plugged into anything.

I've only had this device a week, I'll probably think of more...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] princepilot:
If think whatever they make it will fall behind apple and the iphone as apple really do break the mould and offer what we want. Windows is nothing at all about what the consumer wants. Its about what makes the most money.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] firstbuddha:
errmm - multitouch as a technology is NOT patented by apple - explain the MS Surface then...
