[Android Themes] SoundwaveRumble:
Sorry for dredging up a month old topic, but this seemed to be my best chance to find the answer to my problem.

I'm trying to install a battery skin i made. I took the default battery skin and modified the image files that I found, then renamed the folder with the 17 .png files and sent them to a zip folder of the same name. I copied it to my sd card on my phone and when I went to install it I got an invalid battery skin file error. I compared the original and my zip and they seem to be identical (except my pictures are different of course).

Odd thing is I took another battery skin file I downloaded which worked fine, unzipped it then rezipped it without out making any changes to it and tried to reinstall it on my phone and got the same error as above.

Any tips?

(I have been able to make the main skins and install them without any problems, I figured the battery skins would work the same way)

Thanks for any help.

Mine is working ok but I've noticed that I haven't been receiving emails instantly as of late. Must be down or something. Anyways, you can check if you have the contacts box checked by going to programs>Activesync>Menu>Options.

Google Sync does double up your contacts and for some reason it files a few people by their last names first and first name last. I've tried to change the order many times and it google sync keeps on changing it back. Anyone have suggestions for that?

I have managed to run Android 1.5 "cupcake" on my Dell Axim x51v!

You can see the video on my blog:

http://axdroid.blogspot.com
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Xdenwarrior:
And HOW exactly did you get it to work???

DON'T post JUST the video without telling others how to get it, ESPECIALLY if its someone else's work!!!

Unless of course you are the developer of this whole project, and informing us of your progress.

Anyhow we need the installation instructions with download links. Hopefully you didn't have to use that tedious linux installation from Handhelds.org (with all of that SD card modifications) and then run Android on top of it. I definitely see that you are using HARET BOOT 0.5.2 to switch between OS's, which what all devices use.

Any idea why Wifi doesn't work, and not everything is being displayed in VGA correctly??? Android supports VGA natively.

By the way, would this work on X50v? this is what i have.

All in all, by the looks of it, very interesting and very promising!

It's a perfect way to avoid filesys.exe :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] neoMJ:
I will post the details when I am ready. This is just to tease you :)

Currently it's only me working on this project. Of course I used some knowledge gained by other porting efforts like handhelds.org etc...

I am using a vanilla linux kernel 2.6.27, on which I have applied Android patches and wrote the necessary driver codes for Dell Axim.

Right now it won't work on x50, but it's not hard to make it work too, just a few lines of driver initialization codes I guess.

I don't have it, so I cannot test for it.

Currently it only works through Haret and boots from the SD card. I think installing this as the primary ROM is the last thing to do, when there's more progress like WiFi, power management, bluetooth etc.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] neoMJ:
I have not yet worked on WiFi. It may be the hardest part of this effort actually. We'll see...

Actually everything is displayed in VGA and the GUI looks very good, it's very clear. It's just that the background image is not scaled to the whole screen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nothin:
my question will be short:

FOR WHAT?? Oo
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Xdenwarrior:
oh, ok, so you are using Linux as its base. Then why would it also not work on x50v considering that they both run Linux at about same stage, as far as touchscreen, booting, buttons etc...

Also like i said i really don't understand how to format SD card and to set it up properly for linux to run. I would prefer some easy instructions before i screw it up.

What worries me neoMJ is that so many people have tried it working on the device on these forums, and at the end gave up or abandoned the project because of so incompatible drivers. The linux project over at handhelds.org has been dead for along time, and they never got Wifi working. As for Kaiser, it took them like only a few weeks to make it fully functional.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Xdenwarrior:
nothin, actually it could be very useful if it was as fully functional as it is on some HTC devices. I honestly hate windows mobile right now because of filesys slowdown, and haven't used x50v for long time. I use ipod touch mostly. You can't get rid of filesys, but you can avoid it by running an alternate OS. Anyways if he can get WiFi to work, the possibilities are endless. (i have Ubuntu Linux installed on PS3, and you can do alot with it with a bit of tweaking) I just don't know how far would this project really go.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nothin:
i wish you good luck, really, it is great in general, if you are succeded.

i did not want to discourage anyone..

sorry for writing.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] neoMJ:
For fun :)

I am not sure about that. Linux and Windows Mobile are pretty different actually.

Yeah, that's the problem of reverse engineering. We don't have the specs of the hardware. I have some spare time these days, but I can't promise how far this project will go. It's just fun for me and I like sharing.

This is the best linux port on X51v I've even seen. only thing is the wifi / bluetooth connectivity to be concerned. Or this can be the best mobile browser. I have only the X50v and hope I can test this out very soon.

For Wifi, HP 4700 seems to use the same chip and Wifi is working under Linux. Maybe this is a way to get Wifi working ...

What happened???

So, what happened NeoMJ? You built up so much hype with your video all around the web, and now you are giving up just like others just like that??? The way u never posted us with a single update for the whole month, tells me that. NOT COOL MAN! Not cool at all.:( :(

Anyways, the original video shows that u had everything working well anyways. So, why not send us your beta builds? :D we need those, unless NeoMJ, u can tell us why u think your beta build is not ready for prime time yet (don't worry about working Bluetooth and Wifi yet)

So, u said u have a working X50v built. Can u send me that please? Ill be definately willing to test android on my device. I'm sure nothing worth will happen other that reformating my SD card, if something goes wrong.:D

So, please respond to my message. If not, than STOP WASTING MY TIME AND OTHERS!!! :mad:

Hi everyone,

I'm on a fringe coverage area with AT&T. I have a pretty new sim card, but I noticed that I get a lot of dropped calls while on 3G (or H). I usually get 1-2 bars on 3G. Shouldn't the call I'm on, hand-off to Edge if the signal is not strong enough on 3G? Right now, its dropping the call altogether on 3G with no fallback to Edge. Is the Xperia's radio to blame for this?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
i dont know who is to blame but if your on the fringe as you say, you should just manually set your device to use edge/gsm.

it will save on your battery and have less dropped calls. otherwise, you phone will keep bouncing between signals.
[XPERIA X1 General] jpetrarca:
i also have the same problem and i am curious of the answer i dont want to lose 3g all together but i have 1 bar in my house and drop calls also.
[XPERIA X1 General] elee888:
Has anyone on AT&T tried to flash their xperia with the Raphael radio? Is the signal alot better?
[XPERIA X1 General] newwave19:
not just exactly the same problem here, but similar (according to the network). at home, i have no 3g coverage and manage to get edge at best, problem is intermitantly my voice stops, even though i can here the other caller perfectly, the phone still keeps between 2-3 bars of signal, and i can even stay on the call over 30 seconds after it happens. the other caller can just hear like a dead noise. the network has me testing the 3g thing for the next couple of days though.

PS. this also happened with a K850i and a K800i
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] atomixpaintball:
Hey guys,

I am a frequent XDA user in the RAPHAEL and KAISER forums, but my work requires that I use a Sprint Touch Diamond phone which is based on a CDMA network.

I did a search of the site and read the flashing tutorial, but none of it applied to CDMA.

My question is this: Can I follow the tutorial and HARDSPL a CDMA Diamond and then flash it to any rom in the forum? Or do I need a special CDMA form of HARDSPL, and a CDMA rom?

Any clarification on the matter is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Daniel
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tonio94:
For CDMA device, you should probably go to ppcgeeks forum, there's a lot of Sprint users and a lot of CDMA roms. xda-dev is more GSM oriented.

Thanks for the advice, Ill check it out, but I feel that XDA always has more to offer.

my question will maybe seem little stupid, but...

I want to have the green windows mobile 6.1 theme green like this:

THX in advance

EDIT: Yup, I'm a PPC maniac and it's my hobby.

And... The question is... Does anyone have the PROPER .tsk theme? I had short time ago, but now i lost it somewhere, or I have deleted it...

[G1 Android Development] acrosser:
Disclaimer: This post should be read in a "suggestive" tone, not a "complainy" tone. :D

This forum is called "Dream android development," but it seems like most of the posts are not really related to Android development, but rather Dream/Android hacking.

It might be more helpful for everyone to easily find what they are looking if a separate Dream forum were created called "Dream Hacking" and all these hacking-related posts moved there... and then this forum could be dedicated to development (OS/ROM/application development, coding, etc.).

There are several forums dedicated to Android Development (like anddev.org and the dev forum at talkandroid.com), but I like xda-developers for all my HTC-related development forum needs!

Thoughts?

Also, because I'm in the Dream Android Development forum I suppose I ought to post something about Android Development... does anyone have any suggestions or experience on implementing a Trial Period feature in an Android app? I could write a date to a file that marks the first time the user runs the app, and then check that date on every run to see if they are past their trial period end date. But what's to stop the user from uninstalling and reinstalling, to get a new install date and trial period?

[G1 Android Development] mlevin:
I definitely agree. Splitting development and hacking into two forums makes sense. Let's move all the rooting threads over to a new hacking forum and keep the discussion of application development here.
[G1 Android Development] afoulke:
I believe XDA uses development as the PC word for hacking if you look at all of the other forums that do the same thing this thread does for other OS it is called development which really is what is done in this thread as no one is really hacking per say because it is all open source.
[G1 Android Development] Plastriq:
Also, who is going to go through 60 pages of threads and move the relevant ones to a new subforum? :p
[G1 Android Development] Proxin:
Sounds like a good idea, but I have to agree with Plastriq.

If I was a mod, I definitely would not want to go through and re-organize a whole subforum and split it up, when it already worked well enough for the everyday user to be okay with it...

I'm pretty sure the moderators here feel somewhat the same.
[G1 Android Development] neoobs:
I made the suggestion to the admins. I will send them over here. I agree we need another forum... however I think one forum should be for help and one for development/hacking while keeping the dream forum for news/info and the other forums for their intended purpose.
[G1 Android Development] shaneaus:
Maybe one could be for Android development or Android Modification and one could be for Android Application development.

I like the idea of splitting this section.
[G1 Android Development] acrosser:
Okay, then how about renaming this thread to "Dream Android Modification" (or Hacking... and even though it's open source, most of it is still hacking... because Google doesn't explicitly allow rooting, flashing the ROM, etc. on non-Dev Phone 1's).

Then create a new forum called Android Development, and give it a higher priority/level... because there will be several Android devices in the near future besides the Dream, and we don't need an Android Development forum for each individual device.
[G1 Android Development] Proxin:
They're still left with the problem of moving all of the current development threads into the new forum... :/

You do have a point though, sooner or later there will be different Android devices. Cleaning up the forums, as daunting a task as it might be right now, will be better than waiting until later when it ABSOLUTELY NEEDS to happen and they're more overloaded.
[G1 Android Development] neoobs:
As said I would have no problem cleaning them up and have asked in the staff forums.

If any of you would like to help once the forums are made just shoot me a PM with all the threads that should be moved and I will move them even faster.

It may be tempting to get the Acer because you think you are getting the most for your money; however, I have been burned by two Acer Laptops and will never buy anything from Acer again. I don't want to tell you what you should choose, this is entirely up to you; however, be warned. You may get a good Acer product or one that will not last much longer then the warranty as my laptop computers did. Personally, I would spend the extra cash on a product that I trust will last longer then spend less on one that I think may die on me right after the warranty expires. If you get the ACER - definately get an extended warranty because you will need it.
[General Topics] globalgpj:
ACER M900 has my vote for now.

ACER M900 is made by Eten in Taiwan which was recently bought by ACER.

I have had a few Eten products and have been very happy with them. With all products there will be several bugs to work out. The Eten user forum, like this one, has great people who give a lot of technical solutions and support. So, I am not worried from that end.

I have had both Qualcomm and SIRF III GPS devices. I can tell you that Qualcomm GPS chipsets are slow with their lagging gps. This is my one true objection with any qualcomm device as I use my GPS frequently in many countries.

The current device i upgraded to last year has a qualcomm msm7200 and the gps is terrible compare to my eten x500. I don't think even the HTC TouchPRO2 with its msm7200A will be much of an improvement.

The current reviews are not bad. As a cautious user, I will watch the forums first and then if there are no big dramas, I will get an ACER M900 when it comes out, as they are made by Eten and as mentioned, there are plenty of people who make new roms etc on the eten user forums.
[General Topics] cktlcmd:
My vote is for ACER too. As long as HTC is using a Qualcomm processor, I would think twice purchasing an HTC device, particularly if you are a power user. Built quality is dependent on the device for HTC, so read reviews first of actual people who bought and use it prior to deciding. Don't believe all those official reviews, because they are being payed to spread good words.

I've had ACER laptops too, and they lasted long over the warranty period. Not to mention built quality is excellent too.
[General Topics] galaxys:
hopefully, my next device will be a HTC one with Snapdragon! and if that turnes out to be another buggy qualcomm, then I might try Acer...
