[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bigruss:
I would love to see something like verichat used to be where you can remain 'logged on' all the time on the server and get sent an sms when you someone sends you an IM. Then you can login over the data connection and chat if you want, then logout again.

The current downside to apps like IM+ as I see them is the hammering that your battery life takes when they are running, cos of the permanent data connection. the price is negligible for most I guess cos of the low bandwidth but my battery (diamond) can't handle more than couple of hours.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] omniwolf:
ah ok. so will this just be pure chat functionality then? i've found with those clients where they punch everything through a jabber style server you miss out on all the client specific features.

hosting yourself? wow.. ambitious :) good luck.

LCS is pretty old these days.. OCS is the current MS offering in terms of unified communications client. also, you don't need public IM connectivity to use OCS on your phone, you just need an edge server. if you want to syndicate to MSN or whatever, then sure, but that's out of the scope of this discussion ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] EazyVG:
As of now I am using Palringo, the only negative side of this app being it a server side, but other than that it has a lot (except file logging) that other IMs don't, like sending files/pics from camera, voice and nice UI.

Other one I tried is Beejive, with really cool UI but very slow and half of features of Palringo not being there.

If one can combine all them + low battery and CPU usage + low traffic in IDLE mode = killer IM application. I'd even pay upto $30-40 for such application.

... my two cents on the topic.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Err, yes you are correct, I was using Office Communication Server 2007. I still get the names mixed up and can never remember which one was the newer one. I was also using the Office Communicator Client on my phone, which is free, but what's the point if all you can do is talk to people in your company? :) So I ended up uninstalling it after the company decided that they weren't going to shell out for Public IM licensing, which was the only real appeal to me.

But yeah, it would be pure chat functionality, but maybe voice and video as well. I need to investigate the Openfire gateways to see what sort of capabilities they support.

Regarding battery life questions: I was thinking about implementing two connection modes. I think someone mentioned this in a previous post.

The first, obviously being the online mode where the phone is connected to the server and is getting/sending messages in real time.

The second is offline mode, where the phone is not connected to the IM networks, and the server maintains a connection for it. It waits for incoming messages, and when it receives one, it sends an SMS to the phone. The phone would then wake up and receive all the pending messages.

The "offline" mode would probably be optional, because I don't like the idea of a server always being connected and eating up all your instant messages. Also, SMS incurs costs on mobile bills.

A hosting service isn't a huge deal. Simple XMPP traffic isn't very much bandwidth. But, it is still a cost I would need to cover.

Oxygen os is smoother than color, but consumes power.
[OnePlus 9R] 5star02707:
Color OS is mainly for China users had loads of bloatware but can be uninstalled easily.

The oxygen OS version for 9r is catered for India and that's the only Oxygen OS version available. 9r was only released in China and Indian Market.

So if you are going to flash the Oxygen OS it's going to be the DA version (india)

OnePlus 9RT is coming soon in October if you want to wait it will have Android 12 instead of 11

[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] chinjangs:
HI there, so after patching the Boot.img with Magiskv23, it seems as if flashing it with ABD/Fastboot causes the bootloop. I had to flash to flash the stock boot.img back. Any advices? As I research this seems to be an issue with the fix being "I made some investigation and checked that replacing the file in the Magisk-v21.4.zip/arm/magiskboot with the magiskboot from v21.0 and flashing that one fixes the problem." But I have no idea how it'd work.

My device used to work with Magiskv21 until I updated my device and it has to be rooted again. So I got the stock boot.img file, patched it adb/fastboot flash it into the device (same method as before) and it causes bootloop.

If you experience a bootloop, attach a dmesg (kernel logs) when the device refuse to boot. This may very likely require a custom kernel on some devices as last_kmsg or pstore ramoops are usually not enabled by default.

HOW do I do this?

In addition, please also upload the result of cat /proc/mounts when your device is working correctly WITHOUT ROOT.

I can't go back to unrooting it, as I still want to keep my data on the device. Is there any way I could attach this without unrooting it?

If you experience issues during installation,

boot.zip

in recovery, upload the recovery logs, or in Magisk, upload the install logs. Please also upload the boot.img or recovery.img that you are using for patching.

Will include both stock boot.img, and stable and v23001 patched files.

I'll upload the boot.img file I use and the patched_boot.img file.

I can't upload with github so here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YkekFaXmtOg6d5sMiecf3OnT7oqCEf4S?usp=sharing

Uploading boot.zip…

Device: Xiaomi 10T Pro (apollo) with MIUI Global Stable 12.5.1.0 (RJDMIXM)

Android version: 11 RKQ1.200826.002

Magisk version name: 23001

Magisk v23001 (I chose canary because that's what's needed to submit this report but I tried stable and the issue is the same as well)

Magisk version code: f822ca5(23001)
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] flairepathos.info:
when you were setting up the patched file you made sure you didnt choose rrecovery method in the magisk app

also rather flash it through twrp there are probably scripts that twrp has to run during the installation

if you dont have twrp you can flash it to recovery if you can access your fastboot/bootloader

reboot to recovery after then flash the patched boot.img to boot in twrp

(i dont know if you should clear cache or data or not just look for the guide )

reboot
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] chinjangs:
I'm not sure how to use twrp, but I've rooted this device already just have issues with installing magisk patching boot.img after updating from magisk v20=>v23.

After that using boot.img that has been patched by magisk just causes bootloops.

Thanks for you comment though <3
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] flairepathos.info:
Yes the stock boot image is locked bootloader so you will boot loop, flash magiskpatched boot image again to stop bootloop , even if its the old patched one
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] chinjangs:
Are you suggesting I use the old stock image where it works before I updated the magisk to version 23?

(I did that and it still bootloops)
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] chinjangs:
Thank you for everyone's help. I've solved this by Uninstalling magisk v23001 and reinstalling magisk v23 thru TWRP in this method https://xdaforums.com/t/unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-custom-rom-working-on-xiaomi-mi-10t-pro.4246339/
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] noobot89:
hello, I have Galaxy S10E (Snapdragon) SM-G970W with bootloader v6, can anyone help me to unlock this so I could able to flash custom ROM, TIA.
[General Questions and Answers] rsenden:
Taking Keepass2Android as an example, which after selecting a password entry will display a notification with 'Copy User' and 'Copy Password' buttons.

On my OnePlus 6 (Android 10), a single swipe down to open the notification drawer was sufficient to display the full Keepass2Android notification, so a single swipe and click was sufficient to copy either user or password.

On my OnePlus Nord 2 (Android 11), unfortunately I now have to swipe down 3 times; once to open the notification drawer, once to open the Keepass2Android group (containing 'database unlocked' and 'password entry' notifications), and then again to expand the password entry notification to display the 'Copy User' and 'Copy Password' buttons.

Is there any way to reduce the number of swipes necessary to display full notifications, preferably (somewhat) similar to how it was on my OnePlus 6 / Android 10?
[General Questions and Answers] rsenden:
On my OnePlus 6 (Android 10) I had a custom lock screen message configured to display owner information and ICE number). On my OnePlus Nord 2 (Android 11) I cannot find any option to set a lock screen message. Am I overlooking this option, or was it removed? If removed, are there any other possibilities to display owner information and ICE on the lock screen?

The only other somewhat related option that I could find is to configure a custom message for the ambient display, but even after configuring this I don't see the message displayed on the ambient display. Any suggestions what could be the reason for this? Is this a known Nord 2 bug?

Edit: Apparently the 'Clock on ambient display' that I had selected under Personalization doesn't display custom message and notifications; the custom message appears on the ambient display after changing to a different clock (I don't like the red one on the other clocks though). So only the question about a custom message on the actual lock screen remains.
[Touch HD General] well0549:
Is it the same kind of touchscreen as all the other HTC models have or is it like the iPhone....

The onlu thing about the iphone is it's touch screen of hard glass coated with stuff to make it touch sensitive.

This looks to be hard glass too but it's very hard to see on video is there anybody who knows if it's hard glass or the same kind of touch screen as the Touch pro has...
[Touch HD General] sdlopez83:
Watskeburt,

Well the French chick in the video decribed the HD as having a better touchscreen than the diamond and it bieng almost as good as the Iphones. Although the Iphones touch screen is capacitive.

The Hd's touch screen is still pressure sensitive.
[Touch HD General] Black93300ZX:
The HD's touch screen will be the same as the Diamond and Touch Pro. As the guy in the video was saying it was sensitive, he scrolled along the bottom of TF3D and it stopped going with his finger and treated it as a tap later down the line of icons. No touch screen can compare to a capacitive screen, the iPhone and G1 will always be more sensitive.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aiw5PsQ50Uc

Skip to like 1:25, as he says it's a very sensitive screen it doesn't even track his finger along the bottom.
[Touch HD General] meckah:
The screen isn't multitouch compatible. if that's what you were asking.
[Touch HD General] well0549:
No i was just wondering what kind of glass was used.

Is it lik ethe iPhone. Regular hardened glass with a touch sensitive coating ( that wears off after a while i know)

or is it the same old touchscreen that we are used to. You know sevral layers of thin glass and plastic that's so easy to scratch and break......
[Touch HD General] fhsieh:
Well, "scratch" and "break" are relative, IMO. The iPhone's glass screen may have a more durable feel under normal finger usage but can shatter more easily when dropped, whereas plastics might feel cheaper but have a bit more give for better durability under sudden shock.

Resistance to scratches will depend wholly on the type of scratch abuse and choice of screen protector.

As far as the glass+capacitive coating (on the iPhone) goes, let me say that resistive touchscreens are also susceptible to damage, namely the "oil patch" where the touch-sensitive layer is subject to too much pressure and "breaks" (not immediately, but over time it loses its accuracy/sensitivity) and discoloration similar to an oil patch appears. This has happened to me on my Touch Pro, and others on their Diamonds, and I suspect it might happen on the HD as well (since it is also a flush-mounted touch-resistive display).
[Touch HD General] kempas:
The capacitance screen of the iPhone also means it cannot be used with anything other than a finger, i.e. no stylus. This means that every interface has to be sized accordingly for finger user rather than being able to be smaller and more detailed for stylus use.
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
It's true that in the french video the menu scroller does not keep up with his finger. However, he is brushing the menu very lightly in order to demonstrate that the pressure threshold is much lower. No, it does not equal a capacitive screen, but he does specifically state that it is different to that of the diamond in terms of sensitivity. The diamond requires a lot of pressure, and you don't need a capacitive screen just to have it respond to much less pressure.
[Touch HD General] canonyau:
capacitance screen for winmo?

I wonder whether it would be possible for a capacitance screen to work with WinMo? I am massively jealous of the easy usability of my friend's iPhone, but at the end of the day, I use winmo programs. Capacitance screens feels like a superior technology - it just works better with your fingers
[Touch HD General] donbronzi:
I disagree about the superior technology. As was said earlier in this thread you can't use a stylus witha captive screen or gloved fingers come to think about it. What about a combination of the 2, that would be superior tech.
[Touch HD General] Raziel1:
I can tell you that the screen is really great. better than i thought.

It is still a resitive screen, but it feels like glass, especially after you put the screen protector which comes with the device on the screen. an as far as it goes, i think its very scratch resistent, even against fingernails and so.

It doesn't even feel like you are pressign the screen, its much more like the iphone glass display and comes very close to it.
[Touch HD General] fallenczar:
Sorry, but it is a common misconception that capacitive touch screens cannot work with stlylii. (largely attributed to iphone not requiring or shipping with a stylus)

Have a look here

http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/cellphone/a31f/?cpg=ab
[Touch HD General] donbronzi:
Ok Ok. You can use a stylus with a capacitive screen but it has to be charged i.e produce electrons. On HTC devices you can use anything thats at hand.

Like i said before i like the feeling of a capacitive screen but it does lack in key areas. A combination of the 2 screens would be the future, but i'm sure there are technical limitations to such a project.

I wear leather gloves when it is cold and I am happy that I would not need to take them off to use my phone and freeze my fingers when outside. I have seen iphone users wearing gloves taking them off to use the phone. I guess another perk to using pressure sensitive screen - warmer hands :)
[Touch HD General] buggybug0:
seeing no body answered OP's question, but all came at a very close tangent, i'll take a stab at it.

HD's screen is not glass, it cannot be glass like iphone because HD requires it screen to "bend" and "depress" a little at the specific spot so the second layer can sense the pressure. the first//top layer is only a screen, touch/pressure panel is beneath that.
[Touch HD General] indup:
do you definitely need to put a screen protector on or is it going to be pretty scratch resistant without?
[Touch HD General] Raziel1:
I didn't test ist without the screen protector (but the one which is in the package is very good and invisible, as the edges are perfectly cut.)

With the Screen protector of the packages, it seems very scratch resistant and fells like the glass iphone screen
[Touch HD General] indup:
did the screen protector go on easy or do you have the bubbling problem?, this is the main reason i dont bother with screen protectors.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] _GRIZZLY_:
More users have fold 3 and a lot have/had fold 2 so i think worth open discuss.

Worth upgrade from older model?

What is for + and - compared fold 2 to fold 3?

I read posts users fold 2 and 3 about worse speakers and microphones work in fold 3 by water resistant.

Anybody can confirm above?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] atvxda:
Yes if you absolutely need that S pen and higher storage. I gladly traded in my Fold2 for a 512 Fold 3, two cases + spen, care+ and charger for $846.96.

Otherwise, it really is a Fold2.5 instead of a Fold3. Cheers 🍻
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] mhtruth:
honestly if u had the fold 2...it isnt necessarily worth it. on the other hand... im glad i did... the hinge being less bulky is a major win for me... and it feels noticeably lighter in the spigen thin armor when compared to the fold 2. I also love the in display cam doesn't take away from my home screen wallpaper. Minor... but major boost on how i feel when using the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] carlitos66:
No. I have Fold 2 and I returned my Fold 3 for these reasons:

not so good battery life as Fold 2

noticeably worse sound from external speakers

writing with SPen over crease is awkward

S Pen case supplied by Samsung is a Joke ( I currently use leather flip case over my Fold 2 )

I hate that selfie hole cover up, I would rather live with display cut out which does not bother me.

Good things in F3:

512 GB storage

120Hz front screen

noticeably brighter inner screen

Inner screen display protector feels more like glass

Got pretty good trade in from Samsung for my old Fold 2 and S Pen case but still decided that I am going to hold onto my F2 little longer. I still believe they will release something like Note 30 or what ever they call it. This phone is not for masses despite the hype and initial volume of orders.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] _GRIZZLY_:
Only internal screen works with s pen?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jamesbilluk:
Only internal screen sadly. It would be great if it worked with the outer screen too, just for a quick note. I don't tend to want to use the pen out and about, for fear of dropping the phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
100% worth it to me. The Z Fold 3 feels like a more refined device in hand. Can't really explain why. But the addition of SPen support, water resistance, and the 512GB option made it worth it.

I traded in my ZF2 for the 512GB model the SPen Flip Case AND the Spen Pro, used a $100 promo code, my first responder discount, and used Rakuten to get 12% cash back. Brought it down to just under $700.

Is there any way I can configure the 'back' button on my Pro to actually, close programs instead of just leaving them running in the background eating up resources???

I've set the "tap x to close programs" setting but it doesn't seem to make any difference and I really hate having to press that little "x" key in the top right corner with my big thumbs!!! I also checked out the "Raphael Tweaks" but nothing on there either.

Anyone got any ideas????

Select "Button" from the tabs and uncheck both check boxes.

Done.

I think every task manager which does it's job will do that, exept the HTC Task Manager crap.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Axel2k5:
OK this is really getting me down now!!!

these various task managers, like the default HTC app, all close the application when you TOUCH the 'x' button but they don't do it if you press the hardware <- 'back' button??

I also notice that unlike my Artemis when you go into settings -> buttons only 1 button action, Button 1 (hold), is available. where the other 3 buttons are is a mystery button 1 btw turns out to be the phone send button.

So my question is two fold, before I throw my TP out the nearest window...

1. does anybody know of a way to configure a TP so that when you press the back button it actually closes the application?

2. anybody know if there is a registry key or someway to add the other 3 hardware buttons to the settings -> buttons configuration app??

Pls help before I go totally MAD!!!
