SMS and Email Time Stamp fix

Anyone with issues with time stamp on their sms or emails, i've posted earlier a way to do it is to turn off the automatic time, setting the time zone to 0 but I just realized that this fixed the sms time issue but not the email time issues.

I found a fix for both where after doing this, i can use the correct time zone with no issues.

Download mms.apk from here: http://download125.mediafire.com/1byilmeclmog/iwz5mzwrinz/Mms.apk

Install it using APP Installer (from Market)...you're done.

Reset your time zone...your emails and sms should have the correct time...Enjoy...!!!

Anyone know where to get bluex.apk...apparently it fixes the bluetooth issue.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] formicae:
This doesn't work for me. The APK shows up as an app named '#ffffffff' and won't install.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugkok:
MMS.apk

It worked for me...try again.

Are you using app installer?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] formicae:
Maybe it's because I've switched to the MyHero 1.1.1 ROM (faster/smoother). Oh well, here's hoping someone cooks an Mms.apk that works on that ROM. I even tried pushing it to the phone using the shell, but that resulted in not being able to receive messages. Bah.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mikewood86:
I installed that mms.apk, but I'm having problems with threads showing up. They don't appear when I go into the messaging program. Is there any way to either fix this, or set it back to the previous messaging.apk?

I installed that mms.apk, but I'm having problems with threads showing up. They don't appear when I go into the messaging program. Is there any way to either fix this, or set it back to the previous messaging.apk?

What do u mean by threads?

I'm using chompsms and everything is working fine after installing the mms.apk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mikewood86:
Oh I mean the original messaging app, not any of the downloaded ones from the market. Threads are the conversations between you and someone else.

Ok, so I have the update named properly and it's saved to my SD card. Booted the phone in fastboot with the usb connected. After I enter the recoveryROM image into the command line, this pops up on my computer and nothing happens on the phone, what do I do?...

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Deicist:
change

to

i just installed 1.4fatality, and it seems to be stuck at the "rogers logo" been like that for approx 10 mins.

Anything i did wrong? i rooted and installed the rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bobdude5:
you realize this rom is like 2months old right ?

theres alot of faster roms now
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] magpie2000k:
Ok have the Rom all installed have done root access like described.

I have a UK vodafone Magic. an I must say that it runs like a dream, yes there are one or two lags initially but once up and running its fine. Especially when you look at how many widgets are loaded at startup. These for me have always slowed a rom down so much I havent sed them. I have disabled a couple and it does just run as smooth as anything I have tried so far.

And yes I have tried most of them.

If we consider that this came out yesterday and how long fatality has hed to port it, I just ask the question of how good can it get.

I would recommend this rom to any vodafone UK user.

Thanks fatality
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Totally agree.

Seems like once they have time to optimise this we should start seeing some improvements, possibly getting to near full speed? Does the hero have the same cpu? i suppose its just the ram issue for UK vodas. Time to order that class 6 SD card I think...

Update on Music App - It only doesnt like MP3 files, m4a from itunes play fine (non drm aac)...

So far this goes from very good when all is smooth (with setcpu and swapper) to the riduclus (10+ sec delays returning to home with NO widgets active) but what a great first attempt.

Still a few bugs with the camera, but so far everything else has worked. So near to perfect so it's a keeper untill the inevitable version 2, 3 and so on...:):)

First post on the forum. I'm a new android user. I have two newbie questions.

2) How does one go back to the original rom (can you make a back up)? I have a Vodaphone Magic.

I see that busybox is in /system/xbin/bb and not as such not in the system path? So mkswap and swapon cant work for swapper?

I did

cd /system/xbin

bb/cp -l bb/* ./

And "get info" worked in swapper (ie free im guessing). But swap still didnt turn on. Running the commands manually works though.

I need to go to bed now otherwise I would find whats wrong.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
If you search around you'll find the original ROM, to return to Voda UK I used one from SFR - they also have the recovery img, and I have been able to return to out of box condition including OTA updates. Personally, I usually return to the stock ION rom, as it seems faster and more responsive.

To update to this rom, you can use an updated recovery image to allow a wipe a flashing, I have attached the one I use, sorry don't remember where I got it from (sure it was this board)

Place it in your android tools folder, then download the ROM, and rename it update.zip

Place this in the root of your SD card.

Turn the phone off, then hold volume down and press power.

You will get to a white hboot screen, and be prompted to press back to enter fastboot.

Do that, and connect the phone via USB to your PC

At a terminal go to your android tools folder and type

fastboot boot recovery-magic.img

This boots (doesn't flash) the recovery utility.

Using the ball, select first Wipe, then when thats done apply update from sd,

Then reboot.

Voila, one updated ROM.

Don't expect miracles on a UK vodafone magic - This isn't down to Fatality or anyone its gonna be slow due to the lack of RAM in our version of the magic (I think - please someone prove me wrong)

I just noticed my Tom Tom only tracks 8 satellites anymore, and I read somewhere else that a guy thought that the number of satellites the phone tracks is a function of what radio you are running.

ie: the newer radios don't track 12 satellites anymore.

Why do I care? Well, I've found that I can't get a fix as well in low-signal areas as I used to be able to.

I'm running Radio 1.79.09.01.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Newer radios intending to reduce battery consumption

Where'd you get that radio from, the latest I've seen are 1.70.xx.xx and the 1.71 eMO radio? It seems as if over time HTC has reduced the power supplied to the GPS circuitry with newer radios. In many locations (such as where I live) this is false economy because then the GPS has to work overtime to actually get a lock and maintain it, often with sluggish/intermittent results. I think their intention was to extend battery life but it's a bit like saying we'll introduce a fuel flow limiting valve onto a car to improve economy. It may work OK in ideal situations such as on the flat but give it a hard work scenario like a hill (or areas of the planet with lower overhead Navstar satellite density) and it just falls apart not getting enough fuel (or in this case power) to do it's work properly. I've tried 1.71 and 1.70 series radios with HTC original WWE WM 6.1 ROMs and found the GPS performance poor compared to the 1.27.12.32 version I currently use on my WM 6.0 ROM. Unfortunately this radio won't work with a WM 6.1 ROM so you have a choice to make.
