Suggestion?

I'm not sure if you guys care (dom2684 & octoberriot) but if you add the .ttf to the end of these lines....

adb push Custom/*.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf

adb push Custom/*.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf

like I did above after the * then you can have a folder within the "custom" folder for all your other custom fonts. That way the folder structure would be Custom>More Fonts... or whatever and you would only have to take the font that you want to change to out of More Fonts and drop it under Custom so that everything would be in one place. Just a simple suggestion to keep things organized.

Don't work. Says error device not found. When I type in adb it gives me a list of options but won't let me reboot when it ask for reboot. Do I have to have my phone in fastboot mode when I do this or what?

Hi,

Does anybody know how to counter-act this error message. I can't boot so I tried using the rescue kit but unfortunately keep getting this error... any ideas?

It's coming up with

after using a Vlodeck rom.

Strangely it's displaying the O/S as 6.5.0.0 when trying to boot, which unfortunately just hangs...

All this started by trying to downgrade to WM5

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Hawks2005:
I recently got a Verizon HTC xv6900(vogue), which the more I use is a great phone. I have been looking for a Diamond theme that works with wm6.1. Everytime I download the zip file into my phone, I go to file explorer, like I do with all downloads and when I pull it up, the file only includes pics. I do not know what I'm doing wrong. I download the file through WinRAR and extract. Can somebody please help and explain what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you in advance.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jadesse:
I have run into similar problems with themes for the Hermes. The files that you extract have to go somewhere in the widows directory but I am not sure. They could also be themes for SPB Pocket Plus.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Red Arrow:
This is my first Android phone so I'm a little unsure of the following.

I've got a number of contacts that were on my sim card as well as my Google contact list, so now I've got double entries for a number of people. Is it best to just delete the Google contact ones or the sim contacts? Are there any advantages or disadvantages of one over the other? Like for example if I have no network connection does my phone still list the Google contacts?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] elcom:
I went for storing my contacts only on google.

As far as I know contacts are stored on the phone locally, so even if you dont have a network connection, you still have access to your contacts.

As far as duplicate entries, you can choose which contacts are shown on the phone. I would pick a method and stick with it. I've never been a big fan of storing contacts on a sim card. I prefer having them stored in the cloud.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] scoopex:
Look for an app called MyBackup pro which basically helps you to store all kinds of stuff including contacts to the sd card or on its servers.

:D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] AndyCr15:
I've moved over to storing them on Gmail. For some reason yesterday they all vanished (I had synced them with Outlook too) but the Gmail ones got sync'd back pretty quickly. Then it hooked up with Facebook and put contact profile pictures back in too :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
+1 for google.

knowing that they are all there and will come back as soon as i sign in, means i am not worried about trying every app under the sun for the first few weeks to see what works, what doesn't and what breaks the phone, knowing i can just hard reset afterwards if the worst happens and everything is back within seconds!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Volker1:
+1 for gmail. You can edit the phonebook from any web browser. You can force-sync by turning off&on the gmail syncing on the Hero. You can turn off displaying the SIM card contacts in the Peoples app settings, no need to delete them in case you need to use the SIM in a dumb-phone later.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] DeadManDan:
I opted for storing contacts all on gmail and went through the following process.

Sync'ed all my old contacts from previous Kaiser into outlook

Manually updated outlook contacts merging in all google email contacts aswell.

Used HTCSync to update phone with contacts - worked a charm and kept all contact pictures.

Forced a sync with google on my Hero hoping that all new contacts now on my Hero will automatically become updated/created in GMail.

Unfortunately this isn't the case and all emails were sync'ed between gmail and hero, but contacts still only appear on my device.

Have I missed a setting or is it not possible to bi-directionally sync contacts between gmail and hero ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
When you create the calendar/contact item, are you selecting to put it in the google group?

Create a new contact and in Contact type (just below the name) make sure to select Google. It usually defaults to Phone, which only syncs with the god awful HTC Sync software.

once created a contact in the wrong group, you can't change it. delete it and start again.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Looking Glass:
For those of us a bit paranoid about OUR data, Is there a built in way to sync/export/import data as in Active Sync?

I mean also accessing my data while in out-of-coverage areas, in-flight mode, etc.

Regards.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
The data is always available on the phone, no matter whwere you store it.

Just cos it's stored on the google servers does not mean that you can not access it when you are out of service area...that would be stupid.

It just means that instead of you having to hook the phone up to your pc using that god awful HTC Sync software, it syncs automatically to the google servers.It is still stored on the phone locally as well.

Whatever gave you the idea that it would not be?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bjb_nyj101:
Your contacts are also stored locally on your phone, so even if you don't have service, you won't lose your contacts.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Looking Glass:
Thanks for explaining, but post #4 above looks scary. Since I don't have any Android phone yet, I thought they might come as the g-mail servers, if you are not online, you can not browse through your "archived" mail.

Regards.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
No, they are stored locally.

also, with the mail program, that stores them locally once it has recieved the ones you choose to sync as well.

it's all good!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Polar67:
Hi Y´all!

Tried searching for this but no cigar so here goes:

I´m having periodic trouble maintaining a stable GPRS connection.

For example i start Opera & open a web page. GPRS connection is established. So far so good.

Then the site is kept open for perhaps 15 minutes without utilizing a link (i haven´t clocked it but it´s in that general vicinity).

Then i use a link, and get connection error, or perhaps minimize the browser and chek for new mail, and get sync. error.

In any case it is clear that the GPRS connection i dead. Then i go to the connection center and shut down the data connection (which indicates green - up&running).

Then i restart the GPRS connection, Either from activating a weblink or checking for mail or pretty much anything else that depends on the connection.

Then BINGO... GPRS is up and running again for another 15 minutes or so.

The fact that i had (and lived with) the same problem on my old Kaiser leads me to think that this may be about a setting somewhere in WinMO??

Is the connection perhaps "hibernating" if it isn´t used for a period??

And mainly: Does someone know howto fix it?? :confused:

Perhaps i should add that i live in a small town in the arctic part of the world and we have no 3G/HDSPA coverage, There is only the GPRS connection. At home i use my private Wi-Fi link wich is humming along fine&nicely.

Please help

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Black Phoenix:
It's like the xDSL connections that shut down after some time of inactivity. In a normal xDSL connection you have a possibility in the equipment of selecting an "Always ON" option that sends random packets to keep the Internet session from being shut down automatically by the BBRAS/DSLAM/RADIUS equipment.

In terms of mobile world I do not know if exist a similar way of doing it.

This thread is made from S2 Mini Config Applications thread because of dropping all other applications.

The main project is S2TT² app, which is designed to aid in translation of S2 applications by A_C (mainly S2U2).

S2TT² requires MS .NET Framework 2.0 to work.

Current version of S2TT² is 2.0.1.4. You can get it from here: View attachment 211681

If you want to translate S2TT² into other languages, here is English language prototype: View attachment 211680

This is a language class written in C#. You can use Notepad for translating it.

Current version includes three languages:

* English (Default) [by me]

* Russian [by me]

* Italian [by millo1978]

Changes since 2.0.1.2:

* new lang: Italian

* new string: s_HumourPhrase (just for fun)

[Touch CDMA General] fireshaper:
Alright, enough of the bickering. I just installed everything on my Mac and it was tedious but once you get it you'll be glad you did.

1) Download the SDK for Mac (I believe you have already done this) and extract it anywhere. I just put mine in /Users/<my_user_name>/Downloads/

2) If you are lacking a .bash_profile file (like I was), open Terminal and type

touch .bash_profile

this will create the .bash_profile file for you. Then,

open -e .bash_profile

this will open the file you just created in TextEdit to allow you to edit and add your PATH so you don't have to type in where you extracted the files to every time.

3) Add this line to your .bash_profile file

export PATH=${PATH}:*<your_sdk_dir>*/tools

Where <your_sdk_dir> is the full path to the android sdk folder (type carefully, remove < > brackets). For example, mine was /Users/<my_user_name>/Downloads/android-sdk-mac_x86-1.5_r3/

4) Save the file and quit TextEdit. Also, quit Terminal and open another window. It should give you no errors when you open Terminal.

Now you should be able to type

adb devices

into Terminal and see your phone listed as device.

To see more about ADB, look on the Adroid developer site: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html

If you have any questions, ask, that's what we are all here for.

I have tried to save .sh files both to the /system/sd folder and to the root folder of my FAT32 partition both without any luck. Am I missing something simple? I also have apps to sd since it is automatic on cyanogen's latest ROMs...does that have something to do with it? Any help would be appreciated.

Samsung Omnia II Apps Being Extracted for Other Devices

Posted by CJ Lippstreu

August 2nd, 2009 at 08:00 PM

Have you seen our recent software tour video of the Samsung Omnia II? As Brandon pointed out, much of the software on the Omnia II is skinned, sometimes making you forget you’re using Windows Mobile. Of course, any time there’s new software or a change in the look of traditional Windows Mobile software, we all want to test it out for the devices that we own. Well, thanks to the guys at MoDaCo, we’re starting to see some of the Omnia II themed apps extracted for use on other devices.

So far, there have been 5 apps extracted: Phonebook, Powercalc, SmartMemo, Calendar and Clock. The Omnia II wallpapers are also available. Some of these apps may or may not load correctly depending on the resolution of your device, but hopefully someone from MoDaCo or XDA will port them for universal use soon. If your device has a WVGA screen, you’re probably in the best shape. As you can see in the image below, the calendar is displayed and working on the Xperia X1. I’m able to run some of these apps on my Touch Pro, but there is image clipping due to the VGA screen.

There should be more developments once they dump the ROM and more people get involved, which is the main focus of the thread. Visit the MoDaCo thread and keep an eye on the dedicated Omnia II extraction thread at XDA for any progress and to test the apps.

How many of you are waiting for a functioning Midomi app to be ported? I know I am. Hopefully patience pays off.

In case you missed it, check out our full Samsung Omnia II review.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] shithead:
Nice :-)

Nice work ;-)

I've read those apps are VGA.

Do you think it's possible to make it work on our WVGA Xperia devices?

I would love to play with those apps ;-) Keep us updating, Grizz ;)

I've found the thread when I read it at Pocketnow.com :p

OmniaII has the same resolution than the X1 (480*800) so there is no issue to make OmniaII apps work on X1
