i managed to do it using Screencast here is a video:

[G1 Apps and Games] hybridb:
If that's true (and from the looks of it I guess it is) then that would be AWESOME!! ..do share with others how you managed to do that!! :)
[G1 Apps and Games] JackD3ath:
Using screencast does work, but it still has an issue with low frames.

For this you need either Droidexplorer (which is what i am using) or Screencast, and the SDK setup.

Open screencast, turn phone camera on, screencast has a record feature.
[G1 Apps and Games] NSGJDAWG:
More info on making this happen would be greatly appreciated!
[G1 Apps and Games] lalalala1:
i didnt use recording, it was streamed live, i cant remember on how to do it, i will have a look at my computer when i get home! and yes the frame rate is pretty poor but when i use the webcam i hardly move so its alright
[G1 Apps and Games] lalalala1:
ok so how to do it first of all let me tell you that you have to have the phone showing on the desktop because screencast shows your phone on your desktop and screencamera shows your desktop as a webcam so if you cant see it, screencamera cant see it!

1. you need to get screencast showing what is on your phone;

get it via:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=558108

or http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=557717

2. download and install screencamera:

http://www.pcwinsoft.com/ScreenCamera/download.asp

3. open screencast and put your phone on the camera application (you can still use the phone don't have to struggle doing it on the computer)

4. open screencamera

go into configuration and change the frame rate to what is appropriate to screencast, i think at the moment its 4fps

go to video output an change the frame size to what you like, i have it at 320 x 420 and have the phone set horizonally on screencast (by right clicking on screencast)

(make sure you have screencast where you want it as you will have to do this step again if you want to move it and make sure you can see it) click on "select region of desktop to capture" and highlight the screen of the camera

done, skype will now see it as that selected area of the desktop as a webcam i cannot confirm if any other application will see it but they should

wish somebody would make an app for this it would be so much more easyer

i dont like qik cause u have to go to there web site i want to be able to connect my g1 though aim or yahoo web cam

another app i found was yuilop give it a shot....not entirely sure why u want to use ur g1 so badly but to each is own
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
Well i bought a new G1 it came with the charger, carry case and the phone.

I unlocked it this morning as it was on T-Mobile (uk) I have now put in my Orange Uk sim card.

I have set the wap APN and thats fine. Strange this is it says no service and it wont find ANY operators. However i can use the internet perfectly fine?

Any ideas?

Please tell me the phone hasn't been blocked or whatever. I have had enough bad luck over the past two weeks as it is:P

EDIT : Me and my mother are both on orange UK pay monthly plans, i have unlimited data and pay £35/month she doesnt and pays £20/month i put her sim in and it connected to orange no problem. But mine however wont:S
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
You sure your SIM card is activated? call orange UK
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
Yes i am i have been using it with my contracted phone for the past 10 months... and also when i previously owned a G1 the SAME sim card worked in that one.

Thanks anyway
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
You said it right there.. Works with her SIM, doesn't with yours. Problem is the SIM or service, not the phone.. Call up Orange and see what's going on.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
im trying it with her sim now and i cant get anything from it:S must have been a fluke...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
It really does sound like network or SIM related, but here's my last effort.. So you have internet, right? So you can register the phone, root it, install other builds? Root it if you haven't already, and try a different build. Rule out software problems that way. And if it still doesn't work then talk to Orange to make sure your account is good. At that point.. Gotta be bad hardware.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
rightio well me thinks ive found the problem, rooted it and tried different builds. Tried my mums sim again and nothing, must have been a fluke... Although i didnt try calling or texting.

I have done a checkmend check with the IMEI number and guess what? its been blocked on one or more UK networks... Which i thought meant stolen. However it hasnt been reported stolen?

What should i do? should i ring up orange or tmobile and ask them to unblock it? or wont they? should i ask for a refund on ebay? what?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
Not sure. Here in the US, you wouldn't have any luck getting a carrier to unblock that for you. Only the person who reported it could unblock it. Also over here, sometimes insurance companies can blacklist a phone (one that was reported damaged/destroyed) to prevent fraud - that may be why it isn't reported stolen.

Anyway, that's over here.. Could be totally different in the UK. Nothing to do but try, but do it quick so you have some chance of disputing / refunding via eBay if it doesn't work.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
Right well i have e-mailed the seller asking whats the problem, i doubt hel reply so if he doesnt the next step will be to open a dispute via paypal.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
Right well it turns out that my mum and dads sim cards work in the phone.... and mine doesnt.

I noticed that my sim card has a rounder chip in it and theirs has a squared chip (both orange) i then tested an 02 sim which has a rounded chip and that also does not work... So im goign to get a new updated sim that works with the phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
Cool ;) Hope that works! :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welshboy09:
Well yeah that ddint work... the NEW sim doesnt work ni the phone either eventhough thsi is a 3g sim...
[About XDA developers] Fraction:
Hey

I HATE trying to get applications from this forum, and that's because some apps are in the "Development and Hacking " and some in the phones categories. Which makes it hard finding THAT app you want. A smarter way making this work would have been making a

* "Windows - apps (only portrait)" &/or

* "Windows - apps (portrait and landscape)"

* (and a Andriod - apps category )

Sub-forum/category, and make people post their apps there. THEN tagging each app to their "home device" (probably the device the developer developed it for). The tagging would have done the work easier for the solution I want to propose, which is that each Mobile-category has the "Software" sub-folder, which load up those threads in the e.g: "Windows - apps (portrait and landscape)" which is tagged that specific device.

Like so, here is Raphael as an example:

RAPHAEL:

Raphael

CDMA

ROM development

Software [loads up the tagged treads from the "windows apps" categories]

Tweaks

Accessories

The developers have to make their apps in different versions for the VGA, WVGA ect. But this makes the users only happier. I hate to find my WonderAPP and then realize that its due to screensize not supported good enough.

And since I only have the Idea and can't develop, I'm just saying out loud. Hoping it's possible and doable.

If this method could have been a Daily used service, it would have been much easier to "beat" the " I loooooove the iPhone, its so much better for my daily 15 minutes of joy"-syndrome somebody apparently have (discussed in some sub-forums). Because I feel we don't need, as some people have mentioned, 20 apps doing the same. (And that's because they develop the programs in their "home-treads" and not in the Development and Hacking division. Which again leaves us to more alike apps. Just think if the 20 developers worked together on 1 or 2 apps, what a result we would have got.

And a extra thing would been nice, a category for "IDEAS, [UNDER DEVELOPMENT], ALPHA, BETA"-apps. So developers, who want to help, or need help have a "safe" and ONE "home" to come and visit.

[This category I do want, because I tried getting somebody to help me, with my ideas for some apps, and no responds.]

So I'm trying to find a nice looking case for my TP2, and as we all know, there are very few at this point. But the iPhone is very similar in size, just a but thinner. 'seems that everyone is making cases for these.

Anybody ever thought about trying an iPhone case just to see how the fit is?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] nickf123654:
I have not seen an iPhone case (other than a pouch) that would work for the Touch Pro 2. The iPhone is much thinner and the cases for it would not allow the keyboard to slide out on the Touch Pro2. I have tried the gel cover and the body glove case but ended up sticking with the pouch that came with the phone because it gives good protection and fits in my pocket. Good luck finding a case that works for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] phinphan:
My wife has an Ipod Touch case that is a slide in type of vertical holster that works very well with the TP2. It was a little snug at first but it works great after a few tries. She clips it in her purse but it can easily be clipped to the belt and adds little depth. The clip swivels but does not free float. We got it a Walmart for about $15. Don't have the brand name handy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] cincy1020:
Okay, I do not envy iPhone users at all, since I love my Fuze, and will soon have my Tilt2 (CAN HARDLY WAIT :) ), but I do REALLY envy their cases.

It seems like all cases I have found for HTC phones are pretty plain, and all similar design.

Does anyone know of any cases which are "different" like these for the iPhone:http://www.ultra-case.com/products_iphone3g.php

Also, why do iPhone cases seem to all have the screen uncovered (which I really like)? Is the screen sturdier because it's glass?

Thanks!

Hello I'm trying to use xmlprovisioning to customize some features of S2U2.

An example of one key I'm having problem with is the following:

<parm name="ShowOwnerInfo" datatype="binary" value="01"/>

I just cannot get the value of 01 to stick. When I go back into S2U2 registry setting it is still showing as value not being set (according to CeRegistryEditor).

I don't have any problems changing other datatypes, such as: integer and string.

Am I don't something wrong?

Thank you in advance for all you guy's help.

Okay, I think I found out the reason:

"Binary values are a PITA since they're encoded Base 64 (see my entry for Owner Information above). If you want to set owner information as I did in the example, then you need to convert Unicode to Base64."

from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=366337&highlight=user+customization+binary

[General Questions and Answers] ken_shin33:
Thank you for the suggestion.

I have already tried the tool, but what it gives me does not generate the effect that I'm looking for :(

Maybe I need to manipulate the value some how and then put it into the encoder??
[General Questions and Answers] fwt:
Hi,

just an idea:

Binary data are hex ... so i attached a little txt ... just rename it and import to your registry.

It show how Binary-Values work (as far as i understood them ;))

In HKLM you'll find a Key (Folderlike) called "fwt"

Therein are three values

1. Capital

2. SmallLetter

3. Test

1. => FWT as binary data => 46,57,54

2. => fwt as binary data => 66,77,74

3. => all signs (letters, numbers, symbols) from 00 to FF

Space is 20

CapitalLetter start with 41

SmallLetters start with 61

Just use CeRegistryEditor and you can see them clearly :cool:.

I hope this helps! ;)

It just a bluetooth GPS module that fits on a key chain. You don't need it as the X1 already has a built in GPS chip. If you had a smartphone without a GPS chip, then there's be some benefit to it.

Or if you wanted to use GPS stuff on a laptop or something with BT etc.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sms2000:
Suppose your X1 is positioned in your car that way that the GPS reception is bad but you cannot relocate it. You can set it up to receive GPS signals from this external module. The module itself can be put anywhere like near a window or on the car's roof or so.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashpanda:
I actually have one of those. Well, mine is a white Vodafone branded one, but it's the same chip, hardware, box, everything. It's actually still vaguely useful - it's DGPS capable (WAAS/EGNOS), which the X1's GPS chip is not (augmented accuracy within certain systems, WAAS for North America/Canada and out to sea within several hundred miles, EGNOS for Europe etc), and it has apparently far better reception - my X1i couldn't pick up a GPS signal to save its life inside a BA Boeing 777 flight. The bluetooth'd external reciever picked up and held a strong signal for the entire 3500 mile flight at 40k ft. And inside a plane fuselage, that's got to be borderline faraday cage.

can the taskbar be customized? I have read all the posts I can get my hands on and I am confused. I found a thread on this in the HTC Diamond section. Most of the comments talked about a phcampon.dll and dll's that had a 192. I have looked all over my mogul and the best I can find is phcanhtc.dll, and a bunch of other dll's with 96 in them. Am I supposed to manually add the dll's and change the registry to match? or is this something I cannot do with my mogul?

I installed tsowentaskbar6 6.5 program but all that managed to change was the signal meter. If someone could point me in a direction with a little more clairity I would greatly appreciate it.

I blamed it on qwest..... i was hoping that when i get my verizon phone i would be able to find one then. I think there is a block on most roms. and also i think each rom has the icons in diff dll's. so its probably hard to get one out for everyone.;)

Hey guys, Just wanted to let everyone know, I dropped by the T-mobile store ( USA ) today to ask around and see if anybody there knew about the G2 ( MyTouch, What tmobile will be calling it when released. )

Unlike many of the rumors according to online sources, it is in fact, coming to T-mobile only. Thats right, T-mobile is the only company to get the badass phone xD!

I asked a buddy of mine that worked there about release dates and other cool new things coming for T-mobile users. He told me the G2 (MyTouch) is scheduled to be released mid/late of next month. Yep, in August. And that they had a manager down in San antonio Texas, training on the phone as we speak. I will be going back tomorrow when he gets back in town, and get all the juicy details and post them here! ( And if he lets me, some pictures ) And also we have another goody coming to us, Were aren't at 3g JUST quite yet. But August 1st, We will be getting EDGE everywhere on the T-mobile network. That was guaranteed from the store manager there. And 3G will be coming for us, sometime around december of this year. ( 3G everywhere ) not just in metro areas. ( Hurray for all the country people....IE....me )

Now I know this isn't an official saying or whatever. I don't have links, and I don't have sources you guys know and trust. But I do trust buddies of mine and the people that work at this T-mobile store. They haven't let me down yet. So, I guess we can only wait and see if it does come to T-mobile only.

Like someone said though, and I totally agree. T-mobile would be complete idiots to let this phone go to someone else. If it was to happen. There not dumb. So hurray for t-mobile users. We should have our brand new MyTouch at the end of August. So we don't have to wait to much longer guys!
[G1 General] Dreddge:
http://www.t-mobilemytouch.com

I love how on all their promotions they are quick to include " super fast 3G" network. Here in Jacksonville, Fl. it will be 2012 be fore we get 3g. By then eveyone else will have 4 or 5g. I am really starting to hate Tmobile.
