I just realized 4.5 has no zoom...

But anyways...

4.5 is super stable...and if a lot of 4.9 features can be ported to 4.5...I don't see why anyone would vote on aesthetics alone.

I personally like 4.5s zoom out and bobble orienteering as much as 4.9s rotate and bobble orienteering...both seem top notch and the 4.5 one doesn't slow down the phone as much.

The 4.9 lock pattern screen PWNs 4.5s though they are similar, but that is something that can probably be ported to 4.5 easily (im assuming XML edits.)

The lock screen is probably also a simple XML edit (though the white bar on the bottom may be more difficult, but i dunno)

They keyboard...man, I dunno, I love the HTC keyboard...as a test I spelled a 8 letter word wrong on purpose (absolute) and it still corrected it. If that alone can be ported to 4.5 I could die happy.

The dialer is prob a dead issue...if it isnt...bring it on.

Triple axis rotation...I dunno if htat can be ported, but that doesnt really matter.

As for the animations, I doubt it can be ported.

Exchange? I dunno...

4.9s in call screen > 4.5s but I find no personal fault in 4.5s traditional Android one. dunno if that can be ported over.

anything else?

but 4.5 pwns stability wise...
[G1 Android Development] smojo:
It was a hard decision but I voted for 4.9. I've seen an increase in battery life with 4.9 and overall I like the version better. There are some cons with 4.9 though and hopefully this stuff can be changed and added later. Really would like to have maps back, I can't get gmail working correctly for me. It doesn't check for new emails anymore. I have to manually go in and refresh my inbox which is annoying. I love the VK which I am slowly getting the hang of. I'm glad the IM app and amazon app are gone. Didn't need them at all.
[G1 Android Development] TunsterX2:
I've given both 4.5 and 4.9 a spin this afternoon.

I can't see the 4.9 instabilities? So far, I've only had one error after a call and not gutted that maps doesn't work as of yet. I've grown to like the 4.9 keyboard and hope this will be carried forwarded whatever happens. The orientation seems to be a bit buggy and refuse to work sometimes. Not sure why. I prefer the shake and rattle before it settles itself again. At lease you know it's running.

Could we have the RC33/RC9 ringtones ported over please? :D
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
here's the RC9 ones :)

i think he purposely left them out to save space.
[G1 Android Development] rantrav:
I really should have voted for 4.5....much more stable but my one vote would not matter!

And I am sure that someone will pick up the 4.5 and work on it some more guys!
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
form over function...

I hope he can release a 5.0 of both...that HTC keyboard is the killer though. I'd be content either way, I just dont want anything unstable.
[G1 Android Development] vettejock99:
I really hope someone will account for the fact 4.5 had some specific issues early on that caused folks to vote for 4.9. I am voting for 4.5 and I hope the Exchange Activesync can be brought in. It just appears to require the least amount of dev work to be functional - then we can focus on prettying it up.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
It would probably be easier to use the OS ActiveSync is housed on (4 and 4.9) for it to work. I'm not terribly sure why people are voting for 4.5 based solely on it's stability. He's repeatedly told us that 4.9 was rushed and it's like you are all assuming that a 4.9 based 5.0 is going to be inherently unstable. Plus I'm salivating over the idea that I can finally use my G1 as a serious work phone.
[G1 Android Development] DynaMight:
I voted 4.5, It's much more stable and I prefer the animations when it changes orientation, they took too long in 4.9.

Depends on how far 4.9 can go, if it can be as stable as 4.5 with all the Google Apps then why not but theres no g'tees that it'll ever be all that stable.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Looking as thought 4.9 will be the winner. W00tness!
[G1 Android Development] jriley60:
well hopefully 4.9 can become stable.
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
4.9 is owning =D

[G1 Android Development] haykuro:
THE END

At the time of my arrival on todays date (April 02, 2009 @ 3:42 PM [gmt-5]) the current count is:

4.0 - 15 (no google apps)

4.5 - 99 (google apps, older build)

4.9 - 117 (google apps, newer build)

The winner is 4.9.

My development over the next few days will be based on 4.9 (keep up with it on twitter, and the occasional forum post [which will also be on twitter]).

Thank you everyone for your interest.

I'd also like to mention that this does not mean my development with 4.5 will cease. This was just to help with priority.

It seems the community would prefer to have google apps on the newer build (which makes sense) so it shall be my goal for this week and, if need be, the following.

I will have more information later tonight (i have to go to work today, sorry guys.)
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:

[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:

[G1 Android Development] momentarylapseofreason:
Now my question is......

Since the official update for our phones will soon be available, is it really worth anyone creating themes etc for this build? I don't want to sound disrespectful, but there is an update for "our" phones in the works.
[G1 Android Development] jriley60:
well since 4.9 won it is an htc build and i doubt there will be an htc version available for our phone.
[G1 Android Development] Psychedelic-Squid:
Not necessarily, since HTC do of course make the Dream.

But yeah, judging from their past record, they leave this kinda stuff up to T-Mobile (who may or may not be doing an April update depending on who you choose to believe)

Greetings !

I am the proud owner of Qtek 9000 for sometime now.

Recently i was given a second unit, that at first look has a broken lcd.

The person who gave me the broken Qtek 9000 said that it had fallen off and then started to have the screen problem.

When powered on, the lcd displays blue and white lines during the width of the screen and the backlit does not come on.

If i plug the device to a Win XP machine, its get recognized and trying to sync

I assume the device must be working and this is an lcd only problem, although i have not synced it.

After reading around the forum and looking at the service manual on the wiki, i have disassembled the unit to see if any of the lcd connects got loose during the fall.

It seems that all connectors are in place, so my next task is to find if the lcd screen or lcd harness (cables) are broken.

Does anyone have any idea what i should replace ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] NTINOS40:
I have the same problem with red and white lines

Do you find what is wrong ???do you change the screen?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Welcome to forums

Try to do a hard reset (instructions on the Wiki), if not working perhaps you have to replace it, have a look on marketplace, one member is selling one

Hey all,

i have just flashed my phone to Khanx ROM (its great!) but i am having a problem with the internet connection sharing module.

The device will disconnect within 5 minutes of me enabling the connection. This happens too regularly for it to be a problem with reception, and i am almost certain i have full HSPDA converage.

Is there a timeout value i can change in the registry or is there another setting i can change?

I have upgraded my ROM from the custom o2 build. Now i know from past experience that o2 will fiddle with settings so that there network is aware of devices that are not sold by them. The classic example is the mms headers, if they do not say xda_orbit_2 the mms will be resize to under 10kb. What i am getting at is that if o2 can do this i am certain they could tell me phone to disconnect periodically.

So, i am hoping someone can help me firstly with any settings to change or identify the registry keys that i need to be aware of so i can compare them to o2's settings.

Thanks

Hey everyone,

I've joined this forum in hopes that someone can help me. I have a T-mobile MDA and I haven't used in a while and I'm sure as you've guessed, I've forgotten the 4 digit passcode. I've been scouring all over the net trying to find something to let me back in to my phone. I know I can do a hard reset, but there are some really important things on this phone that I really need to get access to. Please, if there is anyway to get into this phone, please let me know. I've tried different numbers and the timer is currently at 255 seconds and gets longer with each wrong guess. Please help if you can.

I am absolutley certain this has been asked before and yes i did do a search.

what do i use to back up my contacts etc. Active sync has this retarded warning that says there has been a change on my server and all changes since last sync will be lost!!

what kind of crap is that? I have contacts in there that i need since my last sync. what do i do?

I am trying to back up all my info because i just got a touch pro and want to put all info on the new phone

thanks

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DoughStackzHF:
theres a really amazing program called PPCPIMBackup.

search for that.

it backs up contacts, appointments, etc. all from the phone, directly to your SD card.

just run program when you want to restore, hit restore instead of backup, and select the restore file created when you backed it up.

literally done in 5 minutes or less.

if you cant find the program, ill try to upload it later when i get off work.

[Touch CDMA General] paleozord:
Can anyone confirm/help with this behavior? When in the Tasks app on WM and typing a new task into entry bar at the top, the first time it works fine. I can hit Enter and the task gets added to the list. However, after that point if tap the entry bar again to enter a second task, the cursor appears correctly but typing letters on the keyboard has no effect whatsoever. Nothing appears in the entry field. Until I type either Space or Backspace, at which point I can again type regular letters and they will show up.

Does anyone else encounter this issue, and is there any known fix? Also, what is the normal behavior after hitting Enter to confirm a new task. Is the cursor supposed to stay active in the cleared entry bar, ready for a new entry, the way it does on regular Outlook for full-sized Windows Desktop? For me it disappears and the text "Tap here to enter a new task" fills the entry bar until I click it again. I have to do this every time, which can be annoying if I wanted to enter ten new tasks in a row.

Any help is appreciated, thanks...
[Touch CDMA General] paleozord:
No replies at all? Could someone else with a Vogue please just test this and let me know the results? Just go to Tasks list, click in the new task entry bar at the top, type in a new task, hit Enter on the keyboard, then tell me:

1) Where does the cursor go immediately after that? Does it stay in the new task entry bar, ready for more text? And..

2) If you try to enter a second task at this point from the new task entry bar, do the letters you type show up? Or do you have to hit backspace or spacebar before they do?

Please and thank you...

After entering the first task & hitting enter. The task I just created is highlighted. There is no cursor & my keyboard disappears. When I tap to bring up the keyboard again & start typing. What I am typing does show up in the entry bar. Note: I am using a custom ROM though.

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
R1A was the first oficial ROM released on sept 2008, R2A is the latest officialy released ROM, dated dec 2008 and released jan-feb 2009

You cn check your current ROM version at settings -> system tab -> device information

Most users have upgraded o ROM R2A using Sony Ericsson's update utility (SEUS) or flashing their respective new ROM from xda-devs and other public sources

A leaked R3A ROM was extracted by xda-devs members and was shared last month, these R3A ROM extracts (not CABs, just extraced ROM files) can be found on the Xperia general forum, they are "public" here, not exclusive, just search and start exploring them

Some very creative and skilled xda-devs ROM cookers have managed to integrate portions of that leaked R3A ROM into their custom ROMs, and some other uusers are CABbing portions of its contents from the ROM SYS packages

There's no mistery here, just curiosity and the will to make the most out of our devices

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Red14:
Hi peeps! ;)

Maybe i asked this in the wrong section given the fact that my other post didn't generate an answer.

So here it is in the expert section . . . . .

Can anybody explain me how to prevent the auto-installation of all the htc included apps right after a hard reset?

I wanna use a "plain" wm6.1 without htc's nasty BIG step volume control, maila and so on.

on my former tytnII just soft reset after the hard one did prevent installing htc package from rom, but my hd refuses this and installs everything anyway.:mad:

so please could anybody help me?

i am not technical enough i think to flash my little bird, and dunno what flash package i should have for an clean lean windows machine . . . .:confused:

thanks! and hoping for an good answer . . . .
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Techvir:
soft reset before the auto installation starts ( by pressing the soft reset button ) ( u have a few seconds )
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] FabianNL:
With some roms this isn't posible anymore. They automaticly install all the apps when flashing the rom and you have 0 instalation after the hardreset.

(I noticed this in the Dutty roms)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I depends on whether the application are installed using the AutoRun application, or whether they are included as oem packages.

Opera, for instance, is stored as a cab file and is installed using the AutoRun application in the stock rom.

Maybe Dutty has made an oem package out of it, so it is a real part of the rom.

In order to get a "plan" WM6.1, you'll have to flash a custom rom, just something like my Barebone rom :p.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Red14:
OK thanks for your answers.

softreset doesnt block htc setup, it will continue afterward, no stopping . .:(

it's like the Borg, resistance is futile, your HD will be assimilated . . . . . . .:mad:

Please read this fully, I am going to try to make sure everyone's PC's stay safe and unharmed for the events of tomorrow which might occur.

If you haven't seen already on the news or internet, there is a rumor going around about a virus called April Fool's Worm, A.K.A "Conflicker.C."

This worm not only erases your hard drive if your infected, but also steal your usernames and passwords and other valuable data off your hard drive.

This is an confirmed report and seems to be just a rumor, but everyone is preparing for the worse. Anti-virus's are not ready for this worm at all. They do not have the codes and do not know the source of this worm, but most are going to be on the clock all day tomorrow ready to get the codes and sites to prevent as much of the attacks as possible.

Microsoft has released that they have no idea whether or not the worm will be deadly or just a harmless pop-up that says April Fools, or even if there will be a worm. Like I said they are preparing for the worse.

They are asking for everyone to make sure all of their Microsoft Updates are up to date and to make sure your anti-virus's are up to date as well. The virus could strike at anytime after twelve o'clock midnight tonight and for twenty four hours afterward.

Microsoft says the best bet is to disconnect your PC's from the internet or just shut them down for all of April 1st.
