[XPERIA X1 General] tehnoobzorz:
flashing your phone with your new rom will "clean" your phone im not sure about updating... im pretty sure that you can reinstall it because i was able to turn off titanium from the today screen
[XPERIA X1 General] THESpideyWVU:
Yes you can turn off the new WinMo 6.5 today default, "Titanium," and then enable the usual today plugins.
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
Of course a hard reset or a device reformat will do that. It's common sense.

And thanks for the answers, I really just wanted to know if Titanium was the actual today screen or if it was a plug in like the Touch FLO 3D.
[Touch HD General] Rittberg:
Hi,

I am new to the HD (I switched from the Diamond) , Tried to install an WM 6 SW and the HD freeze during booting when it arrive to the HTC logo.

I tried to do HR (using the buttons) but no go. I reach to the screen with the 4 colors (red, green, blue white) and in this stage the HD freeze again. In the white zone is written/asking - "Serial"

So I need some help how to continue…

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] THE GRIZZ:
you think this can be hacked in into our bluetooth 1.0~2.0 and wifi enabled devices? this is a real killer feature that im looking forward to in future devices

if not, maybe someone should simply do his own non-standard solution for this and if it runs well we simply use it as our poor mans version of bluetooth 3.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnoobfragger:
Hi, I purchased the Transcend 8GB Micro SDHC TS8GUSDHC6 about 3-5 Mo ago, for my AT&T tilt/8925, The issue I am having is that after about 1.9Gb, has been written to it, the transfer will either fail, or it will just sit and the completion will raise indefinitely. I do not have a SDHC compatible reader for my Pc, nor do I have another card over 2Gb. I was wondering if the phone cannot address over 2Gb, or if there may be something wrong with the card?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DrWinston:
Hy

maybe i ma wrong, but i think you must format the card in "FAT 32". if you formated the card in "FAT" you can't get it over 2 GB... i don't it for sure :)

Greets, DrWinston
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
If you are attempting the transfer using Activesync:

You are very patient

Activesync is incredibly slow for large file transfers

Activesync has a bug where it appears file transfers are starting again continuously even though they do go through (eventually).

If you don't have a compatible card reader and have not partitioned the card, it should have already come with a Fat32 partition so DrWinstons concerns shouldn't be an issue. If you've put it in another (old) device to wipe it though, this may well be what's happened. Where has the card been?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnoobfragger:
The card was bought for this phone, and has only been in it. as far as active sync, it will write 1.5gb in about 35-40 min, then if I try to add another 1.5gb file, it will say 35min and count down for a few minutes, then suddenly the transfer bar, seems to stop and the timer goes up to over 2Days, and will continue to raise, I have left it for 10Hours one night and it made it no further.

Update, I am formatting with pocket mechanic now, Fat 32 4k cluster Low level, Backup Fat

Update2 Well format failed, now the card cannot be read by the OS, I am going to RMA the card. Guess that will fix it :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] duuldude:
1. I have encountered the same problem and rectified with an SD reader. My SD reader works for SDHC 8GB card. So perhaps if you can find an SD card reader, try it.

2. As for formatting with pocket mechanic, it doesn't seem to work for me as well. What I did was to use error correction in Win XP using the SD card reader. This worked for me.

3. You could also try downloading some usb host software bypassing ActiveSync totally and use your 8GB card like a regular flash/thumb drive which should dramatically improve your file transfer time. :-)

Can't wait for all the awesome widgets that will come from this. That was one of the main areas lacking in the builds so far.
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
How long have we been waiting for this update? Since January 15th?

I guess Google is going to keep teasing us with rumored release dates, release details and screenshots until we wake up one morning to see our phones with an update available. So many noobs will be in a hurry to install it and come crying "I lost my root!"

I see only problems ahead with this. Still... I've bene playing with Haykuro's builds and thus far... I like it. But I don't think that I'll use it until Google releases the official version. But who knows... Haykuro (a 17 year old kid) is starting to make Google look bad. :D

I say we all thank him by donating his way to MIT! :p

Ive been thinink about flashin Haykuros Rom, or waiting for Cupcake to be released and waiting for sm1 to make a rom for it with root. Should i just flash Haykuros?
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Haykuro's ROMs are pretty freakin stable. I updated yesterday to 5.0.1G and can honestly say my phone is faster and more stable than it ever has before(even when it had the stock ROM). The only thing I've found that doesn't work is the IM app but then it has the gchat app separate(which does work) and you can always dl Hi AIM, Hi MSN, etc for the others.
[G1 Android Development] kathi17:
I think Google had to release that, after all, there is a 17 year old high school student who made

two

versions run on the G1, and also customized them by adding a few things from other versions, as well as apps to SD!

I really can't believe that it's a coincidence that they released the beta a day after Haykuro got the most stable versions working!

I expect it will be coming as an official update very soon, or Google is going to look very bad!

Unless I have a huge problem, I'm sticking with Haykuro!
[G1 Android Development] Ryanmo5:
Well now that its official i can say what I've wanted to say for weeks, why on earth are there so many people getting all excited about Haykuro's build? Seems like a total waste of time and space to me now that the real thing is coming and will actually work without flaws. I will wait for JF version. Copy and paste will be sweet!!! :)
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Haykuro's build(at least the 5.0.1G with apps to sd) works beautifully... The only thing I've found that doesn't work

better

than my phone has ever worked before is the IM app. But that's useless for me since the Gtalk app does work(again, beautifully) and I use Hi AIM and Hi MSN for those services. I have found no flaws that are any more significant than I've had in the JF versions and everything works MUCH better.
[G1 Android Development] KPeriod:
Haykuro's builds are indeed awesome and extremely impressive but they're not without their key flaws. A lot of my favourite apps don't function properly or work at all on these builds and the autorotate was so slow I had to turn it off. I still think I'd prefer to stick with 5.0G for now than to switch back to JF 1.42.

I definitely recommend 5.0G for someone looking for the best cupcake experience with root - I definitely wouldn't hold my breath for the OTA release + modded rom with root, it could be awhile and Haykuro's builds are stable enough now (and getting more stable every few days with frequent updates).
[G1 Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
You DO realize that the apps that don't work is because they were designed for 1.1 and not 1.5 right? It is no fault of Haykuro's ROMS as they wouldn't work on Google's release either. It's up to the Devs to make them compatible and with the new SDK they can!

Copy and Paste works great in Haykuro's builds: Menu > More > Select Text. :)
[G1 Android Development] foxmeister:
I don't think Google were rushed into anything. The simple fact of the matter is that they are not ready to release yet. I'm running Haykuro's 5.0.1G and I think it works really well, and is pretty much close to production quality, but the point is it isn't yet. Bear in mind it based off of Google and HTCs own builds for the Magic, which it still yet to be released. I'm sure the Magic hardware has been locked down for some months now, so it is the software stack they are waiting on.

The fact that Haykuro has got it out and working for the G1 is a tremendous testament to his skills, and to those who've given him assistance, but it is still based on an unfinished product. At some point, there will be a code freeze and the Magic will be released, and I'd expect to see the official Cupcake build shortly after then. Of course, by the time T-Mobile gets it's hands on to it, they'll probably nerf it into uselessness anyway, so there will still be a need for the Haykuro's/JFs of the community!

Regards,

Dave
[G1 Android Development] foxmeister:
Actually, this does make me rather angry. When the G1 was released with p*ss poor Bluetooth support, one of the reasons they gave is that they they had it all working, but they weren't happy with the API and didn't want to "lock it down" as they would have to support this going forward so as not to break any applications developed for the released version of Android in any future revisions.

Now we are seeing new Android versions, and apps are breaking on these versions. I can only assume this is mostly down to changes in the Android APIs.

Regards,

Dave
[G1 Android Development] My_Name_Is_Neo:
com'on man have some patience, or update your phone with haykuro's builds. Look at the fact that what Android 1.5 has it took 2 years for apple to put in iPhone and android 1,5 will be there before iPhone OS 3.0. Palm is still working on stuff we already have.

Android 1 to 1.5 is the fastest development lifecycle we've ever seen. We knew about 1.5( a.k.a cupcake ) because of the fact that Android is opensource and all the world knows whats going on. its not a closed door development scenario like every other major mobile OS.

Just rejoice these facts and feel happy that you have an android phone.
[G1 Android Development] Weees:
Well, im really glad to finally hear something from google about the Cupcake update. Im currently using the JF 1.42 MOD and its really cool very stable and no issues, and I wouldnt move to the official Cupcake until JF releases his update bcoz I dont want to loose Multi-Touch :)

Not that its very useful.......but its a nice show off , and gives iphone owners no edge or any other cool features over my lovely G1 :)))
[G1 Android Development] My_Name_Is_Neo:
Does any of your windows apps works with win 98, do any of your mac apps work with OS 9 or lower. As a developer myself, really all what app's devs need to do is build their apps with new SDK and should work with all previous versions that is called "Backward compatibility" what you are implying is called "Forward compatibility". Thats the reason SDK is released first then the product build. haykuro's builds are available even before the SDK is released, is because of the fact that android is opensource and is available for anyone to build and TEST. so what you are doing when you put haykuro's buids is your are TESTING the OS and apps that break. let the app's dev know that the app is broken and they can go and build their app on 1.5 SDK. which as of yesterday they can do.
[G1 Android Development] foxmeister:
Strawman argument - those involve *architecture* changes. Plus, I'm talking about apps built for early OS versions working on new OS versions (with the same architecture). This is not like going from DOS of Win98 to the NT kernel of WinNT/W2K/XP/Vista/W7, nor is like going from the monolithic kernel of MacOS 9 to the Mach microkernel of OS X.

I'm not *implying* anything. I'm stating that Google specifically said that they released the G1 with the bare minimum of Bluetooth support because they did not want to get lumbered with an API that didn't suit the purpose.

Quote from Google:

That is fair enough and I agree with the sentiment 100%, but I'll wager that a large number of the applications that are breaking now on the Magic builds are doing so because there have been changes to the APIs that they rely on.

Dave
[G1 Android Development] ebadevil:
does anyone know if JF or H are planning on releasing 1.5-based ROMs in the near future?!
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Sure. They know if they will take the time to do so.
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I think you misunderstood what they meant with that. They hadn't finished the API for higher bluetooth support yet and didn't want to release a half-baked version which would then lock them into using the codebase for that forever. Instead they deemed to hold off on it till they could get it fully working the way they wanted and then release it so they won't ever need to make changes to it(or at least not as often and not as major of ones.
[G1 Android Development] Autarkis:
I'm looking forward to JF's version of the original 1.5 build as well, but Haykuro has done an amazing job of making a patchwork solution stable. I was scared to try it at first, but thanks to NANDroid I dared, and now I find my phone is faster and (usually) more stable than with Android 1 or 1.1 (whichever subversion).

Of course, WiFiTether and CellFinder don't work, which is a bloody shame, but I'd rather have a fast phone with basic functions than the geeky stuff - knowing that eventually, I can have both.

I'm hoping the best for few API changes, as Google promised.
[G1 Android Development] KPeriod:
Yes I DO realize THAT the apps that don't WORK are of no FAULT to Haykuro. I'm not ragging on HIM or his builds I'm just SAYING they have their DRAWBACKS.

I can randomly capitalize words too.

THANK YOU.
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
LOL! Funny thing is the only word he randomly capitalized was "DO"... and for some reason the 'S' on ROMs...
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
So even with this release we still have to wait for tmo to push the update then jf can make his release or is he able to do it now with what he has?
[G1 Android Development] My_Name_Is_Neo:
Search "SDK" on wiki, then search "Code base" on wiki, then "build" on wiki. you'll get your answer
[G1 Android Development] chicojd:
This ain't Apple. With this announcement, I fully expect Google and T-Mo to release an OFFICIAL update in the next few weeks. I also FULLY expect that you'll start seeing widget apps in the market in short order. It's common knowledge that 1.5 is in the wild, what with Haykuro and daproy getting the new kernel in and releasing TWO versions of it. Just wait, now that the SDK is available, JF will be close behind with another build to augment what's out there.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Yeah thanks for that answer, even though you know what the answer is and would have been a shorter answer to just say yes or no, but thats cool
[G1 Android Development] foxmeister:
I fully understand what they meant by it! That's precisely why I'm angry with them because they *seem* be changing APIs that should be pretty much locked down enough to break apps in Cupcake. It may well not be the case, but we won't know for sure until the Magic actually ships, since that'll be when the code is set in stone.

Thinking about it though, given that the Magic hasn't shipped yet, I'm probably be overcritical on this point at the moment since by the time it does this may not be an issue! ;)

Regards,

Dave
[G1 Android Development] JanetPanic:
It should be kept in mind 1.5 is meant to be backwards compatible. 1.1 apps should work in the released version of 1.5 unless it utilizes private APIs.

Things like WIFI tethering and perhaps some SMS apps may break but it was using functions that were not supported by the public API so should not be terribly surprising. Everyone would like every app to be compatible with 1.5 but the reality is the private APIs were private for a purpose. They were private so that Google could change the functions without breaking compatibility with the public API.

NOTE: There are a few minor changes that are not backwards compatible but this mostly involves permissions. At least in theory this should not require code changes and I think made compatible with 1.1 and 1.5. (i.e. Compiled in 1.1 compatibility but including the new 1.5 permission changes.)
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
I have patience and im in no rush for the cupcake, I can wait, but what are the downsides to Haykuros Rom? Like which apps dont work?
[G1 Android Development] r3vmixman:
I cant wait for chompsms to use the predictive text input engine.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Just had a little convo from a guy at Google that I met a few months back. Asked him about Cupcake. He is in a different department from the android team so he didn't know when it was coming out. Don't know if he really doesn't know or not, but I thought it was interesting that it seems not even Google employees don't know when it's coming out over the air.

Hi,

i love you folks too much.. i am still pretty much here... :)

as my own way of contribution, i present this thread..

when i wanted to change to touch hd, i was worried.. will i regret etc?

i understood the pain and now i want to help.

if anyone wants to know more about touch hd with ref to X1, ask me, i will be happy to answer...
[XPERIA X1 General] jabe604:
Great idea.

First impressions of the Touch HD vs. Xperia?

Perhaps a direct comparison of one against the other in all the normal fields?

After having an x1 for some time, you probably have a greater idea of its capabilities compared to the average reviewer who plays with the phone for a couple days before speaking their piece.

What are some of the reactions you get from other people the first time they saw your HD versus reactions when people first saw your x1? Did some people mistake the HD for an iphone?

Thanks for the thread!
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
1) i get more wows with the touch HD versus the X1... not as iphone look alike, more of.. wow the screen is big

2) the big screen REALLY helps alot.. gps navigation net surfing.. video watching goooood

3) although the lack of real keyboard hampers it.. but with my x1 set and other bros having the same prob, rectify the triple letters or space not pressed etc wasted more time! so i rather do with the virtual keyboard.. the big screen helps alot

4) about battery life.. with the smaller capacity and bigger screen.. shorter.. but not so bad.. after 16 hours of moderate use, 60% left.

[XPERIA X1 General] steven10freak:
Looking at the size of Touch HD, is it hard for someone to put it in the pocket, especially when wearing jeans?

Cheers.
[XPERIA X1 General] garr89:
I think HTC actually includes a warning not to sit with the HD in your pocket.
[XPERIA X1 General] steven10freak:
lol'd

..wait, for real?:eek:
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
yes LOL

it says to prevent damage. remove from pocket before sitting .. something like that.. LOL

but ntc gives u a good pouch to keep it...

touch hd is very good for media.. i view videos on it.. it is great.. taking note the screen is bigger than iphone.. sunlight performance is not very good.. but other than that, it is clear and sharp

external speaker seems to be better than x1.

i feel it is ok in my pocket.. side pocket.. not my bum.

I do use my calender alot for appointments.. the on screen keyboard is ok as the BIG screen makes up for it.. i also installed a small program to provide small vibration feedbacks on typing.. it helps alot...compared to my x1's triple spaces or nothing problem.. i choose this!

BTW my gps is solved.. its a spoilt set.. changed it :)
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
if it is those tight jeans with small pockets.. yes i think..

note that touch hd is really slim... so pants should be ok.. the weight is similar to X1 but it feels lighter because of the size distributing the weight
[XPERIA X1 General] 9761217:
dude, compare with X1,how about the strength of vibrate of HD? My x1 is too bad when it was vibratiing....so,I often miss some call
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
the vibration is ok.. but i will say it is similar...

however one thing i like about touch hd's vibration is the strength is "adjustable". What i mean is when using touchresponse, X1 will result in a hard vibrate everytime i touch the screen... for touch hd, i can set to only 25miliseconds and it will result in a very nice soft vibrate.. providing me feedback about my screen touches.. :)
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
am loving my HD.. imho, i love it more than the X1

[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
don't know of anything better than S2V..and creating thumbnails from 5MP pictures takes a lot of time. S2V even has a cacher which makes the loading time faster.. and it STILL isn't fast enough with such big pictures...
