[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jabar2:
hi there i'd like to make some changes to my HD and i don't know how to do it or if it's even possible. so i want to ask u, maybe someone will help me :)

1. is there any way to disable or turn off the slider to aswer a call? i want to pick up a call only using soft keys

2. is it possible to change the album? i like the one on diamond 2 or pro 2. is it possible to install some features from diamond2? the callendar is better as well.

3. i found this opera tweak http://www.noeman.org/gsm/pocket-pc-smartphone-zone/76285-improve-wi-fi-speed-tested-htc-touch-pro-amd-touch-hd.html

now my question is if i can increase the number to 12 or 16 for even better speed or it will not work properly with higher number?

4. can i uninstall preinstalled programs? like games, calculator, internet explorer ect.

5. how can i put the S2U lock on the home screen so i could lock the phone with only one finger press. there is a "phone" shortcut on the left and "programs" on right, so maybe i could replace programs for S2U? i tried to change it but can't find the settings:/

i thinks that's it for now;) hope someone can help me. thanks in advance
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] suisen:
it's in registry/HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila, you edit the HomeLSKPath for left and HomeRSKPath for right, also Text for what you want it to say

now, what exactly do you need to write to get s2u2, i don't know....would love to, great idea :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] crashDebug:
1. I think you should completely disable touchflo3d's phonepad in favor of the default windows mobile one. You can do this by installing hdtweak and checking the appropriate option. I don't guarantee this because i haven't tried it anyway...

2. to have topaz/rhodium stuff you must flash a custom ROM (same goes for album). goto blackstone rom development subforum and you will find informations aplenty. Be warned that flashing a custom rom will void your guarranty and MIGHT brick your device (very very rare possibility, i don't think that in this forum not one single hd was bricked).

3. the link to that "opera tweak" as you call it refers to a hack to enable 54mbps wi-fi. it is not a opera tweak but a hardware/driver tweak. Increasing to higher numbers simply should not work and even MIGHT be damaging the phone's wi-fi receiver

4. no unfortunately not, preinstalled program are rom-dependant and rom files are protected and uninstallable. Again, flashing a custom rom that fits your needs is the way to go :)

5. as said fellow suisen, but you can also simply switch off the screen with the power button on top, when waking up it will be locked

Is there a better option than running a program (BlueTooth Audio) to stream music/sounds to my Jawbone 2?

I tried looking around and Captain Throwback tried assisting me, you ROCK btw but I just didn't figure it out.

Any help much appreciated =))

Search for iPhoneToday. That has done miracles for the userfriendliness of my device. I use it with SecondToday, so that I have both TF3D and iPhoneToday. I have 5 screens with a total of some 66 icons, and you can have more!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radiowc:
can you,post your screenshot? have been searching for this kind of capability for a while. yet none can work with tf3d with wm today. tried MTP and detachcher... both does not work with tp2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Bxsteez:
Use a registry editor and go to

HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher

And just add folders counting up from 29 and add the necessary strings and such. Each folder you add will add another button

I can probably make a cab that creates another 30 buttons but i know people when then say i want another 30 and so on and so on

Hope that helps
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] CLLC:
Hi ,

I Have a very good idea for an app that is rather simple but very useful. It involves simply a Specific picture which you can zoom and pan around then there are a few text boxes I want included in the app to search.

For example , A route finder that is already on the internet. You enter the details on the box on the computer then the results come up. But i want the boxes off the website and instead linked to my app , then the results appear on my app. So a search function is possible via the application.

The problem is I am a total newbie to codes etc and haven't got a clue where to start in the least. The app is very simple and an experienced person could create it in know time but I am a newbie and willing to learn to create some useful apps to put on the market free for all to share.

Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pdagenius:
Have a look at the Android Developers website
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] CLLC:
Hi ,

Thanks for that , I've had a look but it is so so confusing :S

Oh yes , and if it counts I'm going to be using windows vista to create the app?? Is there possibly a beginners guide to creating these apps or what??

Oh yes and I have now got one part sorted (sort of) , I will use the image viewer already on the phone to allow the scrolling and zoom of the image. :)

Anyone got an idea how long it would approximately take to create such an app??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scotcha12345:
Many of you have already used or seen the Iphone or the Pre's universal search function. I thought that it would be a great idea to somehow implement that into our Phones.

Currently I can slide out my Verizon Touch Pro, start typing "Ama.." and get any Amanda, etc that I have in my phone's contact list.

I'm not thinking this has to be an extensive application, but much like the other phones, it takes advantage of what already is in place on the phone.

It could essentially be:

1) Any / all applications with the same name / letters

2) Contacts

3) "Nothing found? Search Google for: "......."

I have no skills at this sort of thing, just wondered if it were possible to replace WinMo's current universal search and replace it with a slightly far more reaching one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Tsanger:
How does one clear the history of what you have typed in the android market search bar or any other previously typed words in any program? I've tried clearing the cache but doesnt remove the previously typed searches.

hey i know the whole OMG APPS2SD WE HAVE ROOT thing is big around here. but i dont have use for apps2sd at all. i have 14 apps and i change firmware like 9001 times a day when something new comes out. but i have 2gigs of OGG music files. and every firmware i have used ends up bugging out when im playing music and i get a notifacation with the usb headphone adapter connected. could we get a firmware optimized for music and enjoying it instead of showing off our rooted phones with no real use behind it. redirect this post if you need to. i know the whole "WRONG FORUM TOPIC LOCKED" thing happens alot here.
[G1 General] xsnipuhx:
you can try the getting the EQ mod or the Max volume mod as well
[G1 General] navdroid:
would there be any use in me attempting to set up the sdk and pulling an all nighter to learn how to make my own NON BLEEDING EDGE but very stable release? cuz i would love to just have a stable phone with every volume thing and EQ pre installed. and that pesky sound service bug, dats gotta get fixed.
[G1 General] xsnipuhx:
kinda answered your own question there didnt you?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=517745

has preinstalled max volume, also a selection of the roms
[G1 General] ubernicholi:
You don't need the sdk to use the audio mods. Read a little bit more, and you will discover that you can use lucidrem's script to download the the audio mods without a pc. It takes a little patience,some time, and using the terminal. But it is easy if you follow the instructions. Also the developer of the audio mods also has several custom roms with the mods built in.

Edit. If you want a stable Rom use jf1.51, thedudes 1.2b you can add the audio mod on top of the using the bat files that comes with the audio mods
[G1 General] navdroid:
i'll try out *** - JF1.51 CRB43 US with V2 then. im used to using the terminal, its not a problem to mod my own, but being able to just quickly flash my phone back is too tempting. and @ubernicholi, i was meaning the sdk to build my own firmware as a whole. i assume its going to take me a while to understand why this whole multiple firmware bidness is a good thing, when its basicly taking all the newest unsupported code from the tree, and applying it and modifying it for the Dream handset, and in doing so, giving it 3rd party support. like downloading windows xp black pirate edition on TPB, to me its useless. ahhh the beauty of open source ^__^
[G1 General] GenericNode:
why not go back to stock? it's not bleeding edge and it'll play your music just fine.

theres no shame in that.

wait. no, no...there is shame. terrible, terrible amounts of shame.
[G1 General] navdroid:
yea, but then i cant use debian. which is pretty cool so far.
[G1 General] navdroid:
you need to go to bed
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
lol I apologize I couldn't resist. So if a music centric build is what you are looking for, then it would be possible to strip out a lot of unnecessary features. First off, I think Google sync which is constantly running in the background can be taken out. Applications that are constantly refreshing, such as Mail can be removed. I understand you have apps to SD currently installed. Try internalizing the Music.apk, moving it back into the faster more reliable internal memory. Moreover, a good place to start I believe would be with the Google Ion build, which is lightning fast.
[G1 General] navdroid:
if i knew how to do that, i would slim down a stock JF update.
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
I think you should start out by flashing to Google Ion. Then, using ADB on your computer, enter ADB shell and being to manually remove the unnecessary applications. Whatever you don't need, take it out. As for Google sync, go to settings and disable it. Also in settings, disable notifications. At a point, you can even just turn off the radio and switch to airplane mode. That way no other services are running and you can listen to music uninterrupted, at the cost of not being able to accept calls.
[G1 General] navdroid:
wow, thanks for the support. i was looking at ION and thinking that it would be perfect. but im not really sure how to set up the development on fedora 11.
[G1 General] GenericNode:
Ion FTW.

You set it up the same as you do on any other distro...

and...

what do you honestly do with debian on your phone?
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
As in on your computer? Are you running Linux or any operating system based on Linux? If so, unfortunately I can't help you there, I mostly use Windows and occasionally Wubi ):

(In all honesty I have very little knowledge when it comes to running Linux on a computer, so sorry about that haha)

I forgot to add, maybe increase your processor clock speed to 528Mhz. Look for an app called SetCPU. It is here on the forums for free, as the creator is among us :D or alternatively download it from the market, however it is a paid app on their.
[G1 General] g1junky:
if u use ion use R1 its faster than R2 in my opinion
[G1 General] navdroid:
i use um that overclock widget, i love that thing, works so well. umm. debian on my phone is pretty cool. it has potential. umm i might set this up and get a small release with just my name and roadmap on it.
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
Hmm.. looking at your signature, overclocking your PC, and even getting Debian to work in the first place, I think you are definitely capable and very experienced. Best of luck to you (:

Let us know if you are able to get that stripped down version of Google Ion working. I would do it, but I don't know how to resign updates and I just finally settled down on Haykuro 6.0.1 after a ROM struggle between JAC's Hero, TwistedUmbrella's Hero and JF1.51 where I was flashing a new ROM on a daily basis.
[G1 General] navdroid:
my only thing is my work ethic and lack of programming experiance. if anyone could help me get started. hell, i might actually post something in the android development outlining the project goals and stuff like that.
[G1 General] GenericNode:
Go to Amazon -> buy a popular Java textbook.

Install the SDK and play with it. Break things. Fix things. Learn things. woot.
[G1 General] navdroid:
yea i was going to play with eclipse and the sdk tonight. but fedora 11 dosent want to let either program run any thing. humongus java error or something retarded.

EDIT: im tired as ****, i need to sleep on this idea, its 2am almost.

EDIT: if anyone knows of a quick livecd or something i can use somehow in a virtual machine like virtualbox, plz post here. i wanna try this out. if i can achieve simply changing the build name and signing the update.zip and changing the default apps sometime tomorrow, i will feel like i achieved something.

EDIT: ima use this http://www.vafeo.org/vafeo/vafeo-1.01-1/vd_android-1
[G1 General] CBowley:
There are a lot of write ups to get eclipse and the sdk setup on linux. I am usung the ubuntu netbook remix and it was a breeze setting it up. Read, and search trust me.I am not familiar with redhat so I wouldn't want to point you in the wrong direction as debian is all i've used.
[G1 General] GenericNode:
Since you're having issue's with installing the SDK in Fedora, I would also make the suggestion that you spend some time learning more about linux.

Ditch the Fedora's, Ubuntu's, etc and intentionally go with a non-newb friendly distribution. It's really the best way to learn. Using apt-get/yum/whatever-package-manager or any other automagic-utility is great and all, but when these utilities break your SOL unless you know how to get things done manually ;)

Just my 2 cents.
[G1 General] navdroid:
lol, i've done all my installs FROM the terminal. but the livecd in virtualbox works. now i can passthru the usb from the android and work on this.

Hey, Im following

http://www.androidfanatic.com/cms/community-forums.html?func=view&catid=9&id=2248

For how to set debian up. However chmod 4755 * fails for me saying operation not permitted when I am cd /sdcard/debian I read through a couple other posts on google and the site above where it says people can on versions pre 1.5 but once on 1.5 US it breaks the su whitelist some?

Anyways, Anyone have some ideas for me, as the google trail went cold for me as the people who had this issue was already at the end of the threads with no resolve or joy. Thanks. =)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GenericNode:
too much in 'yo chmod!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navdroid:
hey i have set up mine. you just gotta forget about the chmod and just skip it and do the rest of the steps then type exit. then once it reboots, just type

su

cd /sdcard/debian

sh bootdeb

then it should be running
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Yea I thought so too on the chmod step, so I tried going to the next, the installer.sh and said not allowed or something.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
I tried running boot debian and so, and it came up with the load screen, then it had a chmod issue and then the G1 restarted. So what am I missing here? =/
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navdroid:
hmm, im not entirely sure. when i installed it i simply

su

cd sdcard/debian

chmod 4755 *

su sh ./installer.sh

exit

su

cd sdcard/debian

sh bootdeb
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Well I was reading other posts, Could it be a issue that Im already running apps off the EXT2 part of my SD card? I have the debian files on the FAT32 area. I saw some people saying that might be a cause of the issue?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
if your debian dir is on fat32, you need to delete the first line of installer.sh script
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Ok did that and the installer.sh ran did alot of not found errors then when I tried to bootdeb it looked like it was trying to load, then it rebooted the G1. =/

Any other ideas? Also if I wanna try to uninstall the work it did, what does it create to delete?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
Which image are you using? There's one for fat32 and one for ext2. Try this: download fat32 version http://www.androidfanatic.com/cms/unofficial-app-repo.html?func=fileinfo&id=21

you may need to remount when entering the following commands in the terminal

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

place zip file on sdcard. go to terminal and enter:

su

unzip "whatever_your_debian_file_is_named".zip (not sure what its called)

cd "whatever_your_debian_file_is_named"

cp installer.sh /sdcard/gscript

then go to Gscript and load installer.sh, before you save, delete the line that says "./fsrw"

then save this edited script as installer1.sh

go back to terminal

cp /sdcard/gscript/installer1.sh /sdcard/debian

cd /sdcard/debian

su

sh ./installer1.sh

sh ./bootdeb

if that doesnt work out try rebooting and doing these commands

cd /sdcard/debian

sh ./bootdeb
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
to delete, go to debian directory then

rm -r debian

afaik, all the data from debian is self-contained in debian.img
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Ill try that, btw yea I have that file you linked to. But before I do this, the stuff your mentioning, wont affect the fact that I have my apps installed to the SD right? Mounting and unmounting things.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
No, your apps should be safe. If you're using the link I posted, you need to put debian on /sdcard which is fat32

you're apps2sd should be mounted at /system/sd and should be unaffected by your debian installation/uninstallation.

I'm not sure if remounting /system is required, but i think it allows you permissions so you can use the utilities in /system/bin. I would remount just to save myself time.

Btw, I could not chmod my debian directory, but debian runs fine for me.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
Oops, my bad. Should be:

cd /sdcard or cd /system/sd depending on where you put your debian directory

the you can

rm -r debian
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Jonny your great. =) The remounting thing worked! Then ran the installer, got alot of not found, but after that all, I booted into Debian, and did the onetime.sh to set the unix pw.

(Which for the record to anyone in the future doing a search on this once your in debian, do cd scripts and enter that folder and type sh onetime.sh )

Now onto the next step and adding a GUI ;) Which gonna attempt that all now.

Edit: And Grr... not gonna try to do the rest of the repos on EDGE connection.. Gotta wait till I get home. =( (Wifi rules for linux starts lol)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnybueno:
I think the image we installed is only 750MB so from what I've read, it is advisable to resize your debian img. Thats another world of brain hurt for me... but there is this guy with this thread who is offering to upload his custom image.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=528262

5 more votes by the end of the day and maybe he'll upload it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Well... I already did the resize heh. Got a 2.3GB image on right now, which fits on my 4GB, since I have a 1GB EXT2 Partition and rest is fat32.

I used ubuntu to make a image and mount both images and copied the data from one into the other, then did the tasks after I booted debian again to get everything smooth again. =) But I wont stop him from uploading his image if it has a GUI already installed, which is what im after atm. =)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysticales:
Update, So far having a lil issue getting the desktop to show up on VNC, however I did get other tasks done and stable running. Also came across this post which is vital as the default install seems to want to give you a repo that 404s too much so before you start your tasks, after you install debian and get into it, do this stuff.
