Here are 800x800 wallpapers and Sony Ericsson Panel images :)

Replace the sony ericsson panel images in the Program Files/Panels/SonyEricssonPanel/images folder

[G1 General] ophirb:
Hello all

As a relatively new user of the G1 it raised some questions in my mind about its design.

The thing is that all the exciting things are there but some basic things are missing.

First did the designers intention was to enable only English speaking users to use it? Why there is no built in multi language support? Even if the user itself speak English but he is a Japanese and wants to comunicate with friends and relatives not speaking English - he can not.

Second - did the designers realy thought that 256MB of internal memory will not run out of space very quickly, when the whole idea of the phone with the Market is to download applications for it? Why not give the user to choose where to install the application at the installation time? It is like that on my Nokia E65.

What about all the trivial little things that I was so sure they are there, that I did not bother to ask about them, things like choosing where user data - like contacts etc - will be saved, copying the contacts and other user data to the SD card weather or from the SD card to backup or restore them. Again my Nokia has it and it is basic function on any Hand Held device.

When you mount the phone on a PC what do they have to hide when showing only the SD card content?

What is the result - talented people here and else where like JF are trying to Hack/Fix/Go around all these flaws in the design - and realy doing a great job - instead of focusing on developing new and exciting applications for us the users of the phone.

Does any body have an explanation for these design flaws?

Have a good day and thanks to all the developers out there fixing the designers poor design (at least on some basic functionality).

New os, first device running the os, they just wanted to present something. The first car ever produced sucked too, it just happens.
[G1 General] bmfc187:
When you mount the phone to the PC, it only mounts the SDcard. No ones hiding anything, but if you're using a stock G1 then thats all you really have access to anyways, and thats prolly the way google intended it, considering the OS is open source, so im sure while android was being developed they couldnt figure the need to hack a device thats already open source. So why would they make it to where any everyday user can just hook up the phone, delete the whole system "accidently", and then have a $400 brick? Cuz you know thats what everybody would do if they could...theyd go deleting things that they dont know what the hell they even do, then go whining to google or tmobile when their phone is ruined. Who wants to shell out all the money to replace all the phones that were bought by complete and utter MORONS who will settle for nothing less than to go messing with stuff they dont understand until they've rendered their phone completely USELESS? Not me, and surely not google, either. So if you want to have the phone mount the whole system, then make your own build and add that functionality. Thats the beauty of an open source platform, they made it SAFE FOR ALL USERS, and then advanced users who actually know what theyre doing can change it any way they want. So dont complain about the way android was released because it is, by no means, a finished product. So if you dont like it, CHANGE IT. Or pay someone else to change it for you. Whatever. But the point and the beauty of this OS is that YOU CAN change it, you arent just stuck with ****ty functionality, you can change whatever you want to make your device do whatever you want. Dont just sit around crying about the current state of android...get out there and make it better, for yourself, for all of us, or accept it the way it is and leave it alone.

Mine is multilingual... Under regional settings I change the language to spanish.
[G1 General] Chahk:
Ditto. Even though the hardware keyboard is English, there are plenty of alternative Virtual Keyboards on the market that have multi-language support, including middle-eastern and Asian ones.

Re: 256MB int memory... That's a huge "WTF" in my book. This phone should've had HTC Hero's specs of 512MB RAM and 256MB ROM.

Installing apps to SD card can be accomplished with custom ROMs. For everything else - "there's an app for that".

Keep in mind that Android is still in its infancy. As the OS and SDK mature, you will see all those features, and many more.
[G1 General] imbonez9:
Your saying the Ford Model A sucks? haha
[G1 General] ophirb:
What Should have been

The first car though did have four wheels an engine a steering wheel etc all teh BASIC stuff where there.

Today we have all the other goodies AC, ABS, Stereo etc.

In the G1 it is like they started with the goodies and left the basic out.
[G1 General] ophirb:
Since the OS is open source it can be modified, but if installing a modified ROM, it voids the warrenty.

So if you spent a lot of money buying the G1 discovered these flaws in the design and wants to rectify it by using a modified ROM you loose your warrenty.

Bare in mind that this is not a cheap device and so is expected to perform and have MORE functionality then a cheap device.

I whould not even bring all this up if it was a cheap device.
[G1 General] ThR1LL:
You could always just flash with stock firmware and perform a hard reset.
[G1 General] ophirb:
Don't get me wrong, in general I like it, it is just that it seems to me careless not to include those basic features. They, as a professional designers should be able to figure out the design better and it is not that they did not have anything to rely on, many smart phones are out there to learn the good and the bad from.

I would like to use a free dial up internet provider that I already have but I cannot figure out how to get the Treo 750 to link up to the dial up ISP and get online so I can browse the net from my phone since I do not have any data plans, etc...

Can someone please show me the directions how to do this? Thanks!
[Palm Treo 750] holiday5804:
What I did when I used juno many years ago was go to connections and under my network or whatever network you choose add a new modem connection, then name it whatever you like and select "celular line" but NOT "cellular GPRS". Hit next and then enter the phone number you use to dial up on your computer. Hit next and enter the username and password that you use to log on and leave domain blank. Hit finish. Then go to advanced, select networks, select whatever network your isp modem connection is under, and hit edit. Make sure your isp connection is the modem selected and then exit. You should now be able to dial up. When i used it i had to enter in about 4 or 5 different connections with different connecting numbers cause for some reason they did not always want to connect. I'd have to go into connections amd then to advanced and select a different modem with a different number and try again. Good luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaquiel Harris:
Ok guys just recieved my phone back, rooted flashed spl and radio and back on JAChero 2.72 in less than an hour and a half. ive done this so many times i want to share how i do it to maybe help future flashers to avoid bricking their G1's when going to Haykuro's SPL.

Well once you root this is the exact steps i take everytime. use this to gain root and follow every step because this gives you hardspl which i think maybe the key to not bricking. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480 **NOTE before attempting this power off phone and power on holding camera button. Check if your phone is a PVT. if it is continue. if not STOP.*

1.Install JF rc33.

2.Once installed install Jf 1.5 ADP right after that one is flashed.

3.once your on jf adp then find and download the radio.

then right after install the spl.

Once this spl is installed the phone WILL HANG ON THE TMOBILE SCREEN GUYS!! no worries Just reboot back to the recovery! Your phone IS NOT BRICKED IF YOU CAN GO TO RECOVERY OR BOOTLOADER!!

4. if you have a card reader just reboot to recovery, drag the jf adp 1.5 back to your sdcard and just reflash it. if not make shure you have 2 sdcards and have the jf adp 1.5 on another sdcard and reflash it from that. if you dont have that mount the sdcard from recovery by going into recovery then do alt+x then put in these commands

echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file

once you do that the sd will mount just put the jf adp 1.5 back on the sdcard then reflash.

i think the problem has been that either people are trying to install the spl with the old radio. Also trying to install the spl while still on rc29. Another reason might be not being on the Hardspl before flashing the new spl. Hope you guys read and avoid bricking!

Also note * There are many posts by other users in this post on how to do it. you can also follow their opinions too some seem easier to you if your know what your doing [:.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
I have yet to see a shred of evidence to suggest that this has anything to do with bricking AT ALL. There was a poll a while ago and it really looked like it MADE NO DIFFERENCE in the rate of bricks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaquiel Harris:
Im glad you havent found any evidence. really i am. but until i see more reports of people not bricking from DVT boards then i will keep it up. thanks for your input though.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Breakthecycle2:
Actually...you don't have to flash back to JF after you installed the SPL. ONCE you have the RADIO FIRST, then the SPL is flashed, just pull the battery, insert the sd card into reader, place hero on it and just flash directly to hero. I have done this and helped other atleast 15 times with NO problems, otherwise just follow OP's steps.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keatonreckard:
no need to upgrade to jf before installing new radio/ spl. you can do this on rc29, then once you have the spl just restpre a previous fastboot.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Not trying to be rude, but his really doesn't seem necessary. The same information is in the SPL thread. If people choose to ignore the warnings then it's their fault for bricking.

It's really just as simple as:

Radio alt-s

JF 1.5 ADP alt-s

power+camera , check if its PVT, of not stop

SPL alt-s

ROM alt-s

I never flashed the hardspl when I rooted and after flashing the radio the new SPL installed just fine.

Also if they don't have a card reader flash Cyanogens 1.3.1 recovery image and use 'ums_enable' and 'ums_disable' to mount the sdcard.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaquiel Harris:
Thanks guys for your posts i appreciate it. its just way to many people bricking going to the spl. just trying to throw in what i do and put in extra steps for them to be careful ya know? But thanks anyways [:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaquiel Harris:
Most dont make a fastboot because they have no idea what it is and how to do it. i was just trying to make this as noob friendly as possible you know?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dddnnnggg:
Hi,

I have a s200 for almost a week now and the phone sounds damn quiet when i am having a conversation, so i was wondering if your s200 sound a bit quiet too and most importantly if there is a way, a patch, a registry mod or something through which i could increase the volume of the phone.

All this is happening with volume to the top, i tried all of the methods i could think of but it is still quiet.

Thanks!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] marekPLPH:
can you tell me if your phone is brand new? if its still new and under warranty i suggest you should to return this to where you bought it from if not... pls post specifications of your ROM like is it WM 5, 6, 6.1 or 6.5 coz registry tweaks differ from each ROM... for the mean time try reading this.. i copied this from an old forum thread which quotes on volume increasing...

[GUIDE]Registry Tweaks for Volume

Sorry if this has already been posted but there are a couple of things that are worth outlining to most users.. for example there are registry entries that allow you to change the volume and increase it significantly beyond windows actually supports and there are various other edits.. but one edit i really would like is to disable the Incoming Call Bubble..(haven't found a solution for it yet) but i thought i'd just provide everyone else with what i've found so far. (I take no credit for these registry edits)

Volume Edits

HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume\

DWORD - Ringer

(HEX)Increase it to 0x#<change it to 5 or higher> to increase it to its maximum volume. - Only tested on the Atom Life

(DEC)Increase it to over 5 to increase the volume

DWORD - Volume

Same as Ringer DWORD

In Call Edits

REMOVE SOUNDS WHEN ADJUSTING VOLUME INCALL

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\StandardIncallVolume

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\QuietestIncallVolume

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\LoudestIncallVolume

STRING - Script

Remove the 'p' in the script strings to remove the noises while in a call. This makes the volume increase smoother and removes the annoying noises.

INCREASE INCALL VOLUME

HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\InCall

DWORD - InitVol

Defaults to around 2 - 5, Increase this to 5 or Higher

Ringtone Edits

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Ringtone0

STRING - Script

Quote:

fN = flash notification LED for N seconds

p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.

r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all. The repeat will be from the most recent a. So: v3apr will vibrate once then repeat the ring signal.

vN = vibrate for N seconds

wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.

RINGTONE VOLUME

HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\Ring

DWORD - InitVol

i havent tried all of the tweaks on my phone coz i dont need a loud one :) you can read them and try soft reset and then check if something had changed in your volume.. (credit to the one who made this thread)

and dont forget to back up your registry before applying changes you made...

you may try these driver too if this will be needed..

i attached also a taskmanager where in you can find registry editor in its sub menu..

Enjoy and hope this helps :P

The phone is brand new, but it has no valid warranty with it. I am running the original WM 5, which was installed on the phone, its brand is qtek, and it is g4, as far as i can see. I thought of upgrading to wm6, but i am afraid, that it may become unusable.

Anyway, i can notice any difference with the changes from your post, but now it is topo late and everything is quiet so i can hear a conversation quite clearly, i will run a "field test" tomorrow, and i will post the results.

Thanks for your help!

[Touch Cruise 2 General] Wokoloko:
My old HTC p3300 provides an extra hardware button to start vioce dial or (if hold) to start recording a vioce memo.

The iolite does not have a special button for that feature (vioce memo). How can I set up my device to have the same funcion on a different button (does not matter wich one)?

I already have configured a hardware button to start a voice recording software, but I have to click on a software button ("record") to start a record.

I want to handle my device blind, without pressing any software buttons on the display.

If I press and hold a button, it should start recording at one.

Any idea?

I'm not sick of BlackBerry (BB). I love the whole package.

But I would like to have other options and recently I've noticed that WinMo/Android and basically no other operating system comes with the whole package as well integrated as a BB. And this is bothersome to me because at this rate I'm stuck with BB.

Guys is it possible to have at least 5 email accounts setup on a Android device (or WinMo)? Will it work as good as my BB does (AKA. Push E-mail)?

If not then what steps can I take to acquire said features (on an Android or WinMo device)? I'm willing to pay a MAX monthly fee of $30 if I have to. Which is what I'm actually paying BB at the moment for the whole "BlackBerry" thing.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] supadupahands:
I am a long term customer of orange for my sins! and have a 20% on my line rental. I rang last night and was quoted a upgrade price of £154! I got myself put through to retentions and had soon negotiated £32 contract for 18 months with 1200mins, unlimited text, 500mb data, magic numbers and of course 7 days return policy, there is def room for negotiation, apparently the phone staff can do more than the shops as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] R3PUBL1K:
There should be more room.

I already had the 20% plus I had £5 off web save for panther 45.

Now I have 25% and the web save - for the same mins, txt and data as you, but paid nothing for the phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] barryallott:
actually ordered one off the tinterwibble orange site.

Dolphin 35 with 500MB data 12 month contract, handset is £100. Worked out all the costs and over all it was £540 about for the yr.

Well I moved house recently and so my card was declined because incorrect billing address on card from the deliver address (THANKS HSBC)

so i called up and re did the card and the womman got me the same deal with the handset at £50! (THANKS HSBC)

so all in all a 12 month contract (400 mins, 500 texts) is 34/month + data + 50 quid handset. so about £510 for the year. which is only about £110 over the sim free price.

Obviously better than getting a pay as you go sim.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] samjpullen:
Ummm i aint sure what to do now...

Was gonna get a sim free for £400 but the deal above looks rather guuurd...

I didnt want one from Orange cos i thought it had there logo on the front of the phone... but it seems its on the back.

Ummm got some thinking to do...

Would make it easier paying it over 12 months :p
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xdaman85:
That's cool, I was going to get sim free for £400 but thank you for your post.

I'm now going to go with Dolphin 35 for £32.31 (12 Months contract) 400 mins and 300 texts.

So it works out at

Total 12 months contract: £387.22

Handset Price: £97.50

Total: £485.22: £85.22 more than sim free price

I'm going to pop the sim out that comes with it and stick the Dolphin 40 sim that i'v already got.

Thank you mate, you have saved me from coughing up £400 in one go :D
