Softbank Japan is different

Thanks for update and for MMS with UA changer.

Actually Softbank Japan is checking UA - if UA is not that of phones they sold themselves - they do not let you send/receive MMS. The APN i correct 100% i checked and re-cheked 100 times. and exactly same APN works on WinMO in combination with forged UA

UPDATE: I have just burned new ROM - still having problems:

1. Mms_softbank.zip - Crashes every time MMS or SMS activity takes place

2. mms_useragent_changer_v2.zip Works perfectly, but still does not allow to send/receive MMS with SoftBank.
[G1 Android Development] senab:
The APK's packaged up by "someone else" were just using my patch. ;)

Hmmm, I've never heard of an operator only allowing certain UAs. The only thing I can say is to try and find another UA (Google, etc) and enter it by selecting "Custom".
[G1 Android Development] kusamochi:
Dear senab,

Yes, Softbank is checking UA on send and recieve, I am using your v2 and worked, but now I am using the mms.apk came with CM and that works too. I wish to know if you have any plan to work on a 2.1 version?:)

Dear umka83,

I can tell u how to setup UA on softbank, all UA on the selection list won't work with softbank, u need to enter your own.

hi all, i'm trying to get Softbank MMS working on my unlocked overseas Desire.

i've tried both the softbank APK and the UA changer APK from this thread, neither works for me. i'm using leedroid's froyo.

interestingly, softbank-softbank MMS over phone number (ie. not using the @softbank.ne.jp addresses) was working for me before i started screwing around with APKs. but now nothing works and i can't even boot the messaging app.

spoofing to iPhone 3.0 in handcent doesn't work either...

please help!

mms.apk install not working

Hi, this is also occuring to me, I noticed the previous user was in Japan, same as me, so please let me know if you were able to help him, and how, so I may fix my phone as well. For me, MMS is used for my work, so kind of rushed looking all over and your info. was the best :->
[G1 Android Development] ext23:
Well I don't know how it happened or which version of OD finally got it right, but now my softbank MMS works flawlessly to any network when spoofed as an iphone. :) it automatically switches to mms when it recognises that I've input an email address rather than a phone number.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volker1:
I had the same problem, and some packet sniffing showed that Android tries to contact google on port 5228/tcp. Our work wifi firewalls non-standard ports, presumably this is why I cannot download from the market (Hangs forever at "starting download") or sign into gtalk over wifi. Switching to 3G data, everything works fine (though the Market stalls a lot).

I had an issue where it wouldn't accept my details unless I entered them in on the initial setup screen.

i.e. if I skipped past the "set up google mail" bit, and went back later, it didn't work.

workaround was reverting to factory install and making sure to enter my account details at the start (and I used wifi since I was in my home, so it should definately work)

How am I supposed to do this after a factory reset if I connect thru wifi, since I must first enable wifi radio and then put a password, so that means I would have to skip the "wizard" so that defeats the purpose of factory resetting everything... please help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praskuma:
Solved

Logically, what you say is right, but practically it actually worked

1) after the factory reset, i get the google signin screen,

at that moment, my wifi wont be enabled.....but still i went ahead and entered the username and

password and clicked the signin button

as expected it throwed a message saying "it cant connect"

along with it it also said may be you are not on wifi with a

"connect to wifi button", which will take to the wifi screen where you can connect to wifi and it comes back to the google signin screen, where you login again....

.............there you go it signs in successfully now.

Hope this helps

I want to do a simple job: backup my actual kaiser rom, modify my rom adding/removing some application, then cook the new modified rom.

I was looking for a lot of time inside the forums for a guide/tutorial how to dump my actual KAISER rom , then modify it adding/removing some applications, then cook the new ROM to be flashed.

After a look around I was able to dump correctly part000.raw,part001.raw,part002.raw and part003.raw.

After I downloaded kaiserkitchen_01_20_08 and installed it.

Then I downloaded Alex 5.1 OEM packages and copied into c:\kaiserkitchen\packages.

Then I downloaded Alex 5 HT ROM 3.03 and copied into c:\kaiserkitchen\sys and c:\kaiserkitchen\sys

I moved .raw files in c:\kaiserkitchen\BaseROM

Then I started kaiserkitchen.cmd. I followed instructions to extract a dumped rom and cook it. The black window worked for some minutes and finished with message : Ignore any error while deleting files ! followed by 10 lines with message Impossible to find specified file...

All seems to be ok here. Yes ?

From here I can not go on, because when I launch BuldOS+PackageTools I can see only some applications that I imagine are from Alex oem, but I want to work only with my applications and I can not find them ! Where are applications installed in my actual ROM. How can I use them to rebuild my own ROM ?

Please, help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it possible to increase the fonts of the upcomming appointments on the TF3D initial page. I think the size is a bit small and hard for me to read.

If you would recommended three, or even more, pieces of software for my Windows Mobile device, what would those be?
[General Questions and Answers] typo:
Bing -- powerful, versatile, and easy to use. Tons of info at your fingertips. Come in VERY handy for me more times than I can count.

Evernote -- taking notes isn't very useful if you can't find them later or forget to look at them. Using Evernote on my PPC and desktop means my info is always available in a quick, searchable way. Also very handy for taking photos of things I want to remember (like a magazine article) and making sure it's accessible on my desktop. OneNote is decent as well, but I prefer the way Evernote works on PPC (and being 100% free is a bonus too).

Skyfire -- there's no shortage of decent web browsers on WM, but Skyfire's ability to handle pretty much any site you throw at it makes it really useful.

Also, it's not really a program per se, but an Exchange-synced calendar and contacts list is, I think, a HUGE must-have. I use Google Sync, and having my calendar pushed both ways makes it 10x more useful than any USB-sync system ever was for me.

for mention just some of them

It will depend on wich ROM are you running: wm 5, 6, 6.1 or 6.5
[General Questions and Answers] style1:
My faves...

Google Maps, like it love it. Complete app and comes in handy everday.

Opera- Used to use skyfire, till i got a wvga phone. Skyfire is terrible on wvga phone.

Vito Communications suite- This will cost you about $25 but I honestly couldn't function with out this setup. Winterface, funcontacts, SMS-chat are all amazing beautiful programs, ridiculously fluid and add a new higher level of clean fluidity to windows mobile. depending on the phone, I'd upgrade to an extremely light ROM and put this bad boy on right away and call it a day.

ThumbCal- if you've ever used winmo calendar you know. This is extremely finger friendly...amazing app.

s2p- windows media player is old and outdated...s2p is funtimes, finger friendly although very iphoney...if you're looking for the complete package

Kinoma play- total package app. nuff said

s2v or image viewer 0.9- s2v is iphoney but an awesome picture viewer. Image viewer is a lesser known picture viewer but doesn't skimp on the quality. Has an smooth feel an i think uses opengl..not sure though.

Quickmenu- not too sure if this fits your liking especially with what htc has done in making changes to the start button, but I have havent uses my phone in years with out quick menu. its a do all app that can be a launcher and task manager...my personal must have

WKtask, e-natives, taskfacade- no personal preference here since what I really want would be something similar to the PRE, but wktask is non obtrusive, e-natives is more HTC menu like, taskfacade is more graphical. whatever you like.

I could go on for a while here...but there are some of my faves with alternatives...its what i love most about winmo, the only reason I wont leave, so much customization

[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
I know we are talking about a mobile OS here, but i remember the rule of thumb for Windows pagefile being 1.5 times the amount of ram...I am assuming the pagefile memory is similiar to the linux-swap. I could be wrong. So i did some searching and i found this on linux-swap.
[G1 Android Development] Four Fourty Four:
Interesting, let me know if this helps with speed, I will definitely be using it.
[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
Thats the plan =) I am going to repartition the sdcard now with the larger swap partition and then maybe down the line...we can switch from using a 3rd partition to using the swapfile instead.
[G1 Android Development] Four Fourty Four:
I'm considering doing the same thing. What you posted makes sense. A bigger swap partition would free up ram for more active applications. Since I'm using a Hero Rom that would probably help haha.
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
I've already test this theory at swap partitions beyond 32MB including 48, 64, 192, up to 1gb at varying swap partition sizes. Also I tested multiple swappiness settings (20,30,40,60,80,100). The conclusion, bigger is not always better. The larger the swap partition became, the more the system had to swap out then back into memory, which took a hell of a lot of time (upwards of 5 minutes just to go from browser to home). General rule of thumb for swap files, just make a swap file the size that is enough, not one that is huge.

Good luck with your method of swap (which already exists, through methods like the app swapper), I know there are threads floating around where people use swap files, and end up switching to compcache or a swap partition because of higher stability.
[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
Ahh good to know, I tried searching for linux swap and not much came up so i didn't see any threads on this. The setup seemed to run faster, but that is part of Drizzy's v2.7 updates.

What commands did you use to watch the swap partition?
[G1 Android Development] kickfliprock13:
I was actually one of the first people I knew to put swap on the phone but I happen to know that the swapper application does that plus more! and even back in the day when I did it I couldn't use to much or my phone would lag! I recommend either 32mb or 64 mb of swap and just default swappiness but if you use swap I also recommend to underclock your phone to 383!
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
I would only underclock if ur running hero...this seems to be the only rom underclocking really benefits you
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
in terminal type:

$free

it will show a section for swap. if it reads all zeros then the swap isn't being used.

Here's an example of my phone:

You can see the difference of the swap being used, and the swap not being used.
[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
All this info is very good. Thank you everyone who replied. A lot of this info must be stashed away in an older thread somewhere no?

But after all this im going to give up on the swapfile and swap size. I do have a question for some of you that know more about this then me.

I want to run Hero after getting used to it. but after a few hours of running it, it slows down. i have followed every step the ROM devs have said and it still slows down. So i am wondering now, i noticed that Drizzy's ROM has an app and app_s folder in data. I am assuming that app_s is all the apps that go to the sdcard. But even a class 6 card is slower then the internal storage. So maybe moving apks like Rosie and some system apks to internal storage could speed up the way it Hero runs...am i wrong here or going down a path others have already tried?
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
Actually class 6 is faster than internal storage, someone benchmarked the two in another thread that I can't currently find. Other people have tried already, it's probably best to read the first post of each hero thread, and make connections as to what dev's are doing, and what they're not doing. Their latest builds tend to be improvements upon previous builds, so if rosie and all the apk's are on the sdcard, its probably there for a reason whether it be speed or stability.
[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
I am going to research class 6 speeds, I can't see a memory card being faster then internal storage. but I've been wrong in the past...many times heh =)

Yeah the Drizzy ROM is a huge improvement in speed then the others...But there is still quite a bit of lag. I hope they can get Hero running as smooth as JF or Cyanogen's ROMs.
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
your free shows 97860 total ram, mine with cyanogen 3.9.1 shows 97880 totaly ram, but the phone is supposed to have 192megs of ram. what gives?
[G1 Android Development] damnitpud:
Mine in TouchFlo 3D 2.7 shows 98328 for ram. The phone has 192mb of memory but not all of it is user accessible. Not sure why.

Edit:

Just found this on a site:

free will report slightly less memory as being in a computer than the actual total. This is mostly because the kernel (i.e., the core of the operating system) cannot be swapped out (i.e., the kernel always remains in main memory while the computer is in operation), and thus the memory that it occupies can never be freed. There can also be regions of memory that are reserved for other purposes, according to the specific system architecture.
[G1 Android Development] Booker-T:
Some of the ram has been allocated for the function of phone and OS running
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
a 100 meg kernel? my computers kernel is less than 3 megs lol. I imagine that a few megs are saved for a frame buffer, and the os takes up most of the rest but still that's almost exactly half the phones ram. it seems like 100 megs is rather large for a phone OS
