[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
I had one (i am going to replace it today actually )

I thought it was cool but it wasn't very useful. IDK if its because I got a cheap one or because they are all like that, but the quality of the thing sucks. The anti-scratch coating got scratched off (idk how because I leave it in my pouch) and it looks very ugly (and scratched) It also kills the brightness a little bit (buts its not too bad) and gives a rainbow like effect when you look through it (you will get used to it)

it is removable (its just basically a regular screen protector with a special coating/process)

All in all, I liked it, but I prefer the clarity and scratchproof-ness ( :P ) of a clear one
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MagnumPI:
I have moved away from WinMob for the same reasons as many others and now find myself searching for similar Apps for Android (T-Mobile UK G2) now....

One such app I used was the 'In Call Tweak' app which woke the phone screen up when you removed it from your ear during a call.... very useful.

Has/does anyone have information as to this type of app existing for Android or know that it's being worked on?

Many thanks and I apologise in advance if I have been a numpty and not searched hard enough.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] The Jones:
I am not going to be helpful here. There was an app, I removed it for some reason and now I cant remember what the app was called!

I do remember that it stopped the screen going off fully and it was a bit oversensitive but otherwise ok.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MagnumPI:
Thanks for the reply..... At least I know that one existed.

Can you remember if you found it in the Market? that could narrow down the search.

I believe that "Shake Awake" is what you're after...

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] The Jones:
You could not be more right! Thank you very much for reminding me...
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MagnumPI:
Thanks guys.... I'll give it a whirl.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MagnumPI:
Having done some testing.....

The 'Shake Awake' app doesn't seem to work as well as the windows version which uses the light sensor as a trigger...

So if any one else knows of another appI could test I would be grateful.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] cdmackay:
by coincidence, i had need of it today, and it didn't seem to work at all. worked fine when I tested it using its own calibration tester thing.

I need to do some more real-call testing before I can tell if it's me, or it's broken.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] romflasher:
You should try these settings for the HTC Hero:

select sensitivity: Like it ows you money..

enable cheek guard screen : OFF

show status : ON

outgoing calls : ON

incoming calls : OFF or ON as you like it (save would be OFF)

Don't forget to only leave this app with the back(arrow)button !

have fun!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] mccreath:
Rubbish

This app suck major a$$ and rarely works properly.....
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] cdmackay:
I'd failed to note that it only works for outgoing calls, by default, and it's a security problem if you enable it for incoming calls. I suspect that when I wanted to use it, it was an incoming call.

Can anyone explain what the cheek guard option is for? I can't find it explained anywhere...
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MagnumPI:
Hi cdmackay,

I saw some reference to it in the help file but it wasn't specific but I think that it might stop your cheek from accidentially activating the screen.....

I still find it unreliable... about an 80% hit rate...

I'm not a programmer (in the true sense) but I can't see why it can't be made to work like the Win Mob version which senses the attitude of the phone together with what the light sensor is reading to check if the phone is by your ear or you are looking at it to enter data of some kind..

I might email the developer to see if this is possible.

Somebody else has also raise the same question...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=553108

they have mentioned an app called keepscreen which can keep the screen alive but this can also be done by PowerManager (for calls).

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khintz1:
I'm on Drizzy's Superlite V2, loving it, but noticing some minimal slow down over time on a 64mb swap partition. If I wanted to change the swap partition size, would I need to wipe and flash, or can I just wipe that partition and recreate it without having to flash the phone again?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
You can just repartition the linux-swap partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
repartition, but make sure you change your userinit.sh script.

no wipe necesarry
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
As supremeteam256 said, you can just resize that partition. You can't format linux-swap, it's like RAM, it doesn't have any files saved to it permanently. If you're going to use the parted method with Cyanogen's recovery then it will wipe your entire card, if your whole card gets wiped then you will need to wipe (internally) and reflash.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
New to partition... I followed a guide for my 8GB card that game me 32MB for linux-swap. Is this not adequate? I'm not entirely certain what this swap is for, let alone how to repartition it (unless its just following the same instructions over and keying different numerical amounts).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
32 is a good size and so is 64. I have mine set at 32. Anything more than 64 can cause lag. Swap is like adding more ram. I don't know what method you used to format it but it is easy in ubuntu. Just delete the partition and create the new one.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemoShadow:
google gparted its a linux live cd that i used to use as an alternative before i ran linux. simple gui.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alleviate:
32 MB is what I use. The Swap is space on the SD card that the phone uses as extra RAM to speed up the laggy ROMs. And yes, it is just following the same instructions over, but with different amounts for a different partition size.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rootkited:
Hello guys,please help me.

I bought a HTC magic Vodafone branded and had a custom Rom on it but I have changed it.

The Rom had HTC keyboard white and camera with zoom and other features.now I want to put it back because I don't like the ion version and ıant find it.HELP
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] magpie2000k:
Ar eyou sure they were rom specific features.

They sound more like downloads from the market. ie better keyboard skinned to white etc

not sure but it is possible
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rootkited:
I am pretty sure.

I think it was a ported version of 32a (HTC)

The background color of the icons was Orange when clicked

The phone icon and the contacts icon were Orange,multitouch, and so on.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
It's acutally pretty easy.

On your SDCard set up in the following order:

Fat32

Ext3 (<1gb in size)

Linux Swap (32mb in size)

Pick up JACxHEROv1.2 (this is the hero rom that I am currently running)(Here)

Flash away! If you need further help pm me!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nephron:
I suggest

Fat32

Ext3 (512mb)

Linux Swap (32mb or 64mb in size) most people liked 64mb a little more than 32.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
I've tried 64mb swap and came across a boot loop. Some of the hero roms freak out if it's over 32mb in my experiences.. :D But again these are the things that I did to get hero running and it's running beautifully.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyflasher:
Doesnt JACxHero 1.2 have a sms issue??? like you miss tons of texts, or does it just apply to mms messages..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
This has been a hit and miss issue. If it does have the mms.apk issue then all you have to do is reformat the EXT3 partition and it goes away.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyflasher:
Are you sure....like reformat before flashing like usual or reformat again after flashing??
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
Yep I've had the issue myself. It's a problem that the mms.apk is getting corrupt every once in a while. All you have to do is wipe the EXT3 partition and reboot the phone. The ROM will reinstall the mms.apk.

EDIT: I also had a problem with trying to restore some old mms using "Backup for Root Users". I would restore and it would force close on me. I deleted all the messages and it fixed that issue.

[General Questions and Answers] Ed Zachary:
I keep seeing add-ons, upgrades, themes, and so on for Manila. Lots, hell MOST, of them have warnings about version 2.0 or 2.1.

So how does one find out what version is on their device?

I have seen go to TouchFlo in Settings and use the About menu.

Mine says 3.0.

Huh? A few weeks back someone was posting incredulous messages about Manila being all the way up to 2.5 or 2.6! So I doubt that Settings|TouchFlo|About is the way to go.

Other people say go to the Settings tab in TouchFlo itself and scroll to the bottom. Mine says 1.2.35097.1_1813.6.

Um, OK..... Neither 2.0, 2.1, 3.0.

So just how DOES one find out what version of Manila is on their device?

Yes, I realize this will likely never get a straight response. Not blue-sky or skunkworks enough.

Just thought I'd ask.

By the by, I used the manilla file editor to grab some transparent flip clock images and put the call history, calendar, AM and PM icons (that were missing) in them. And have done software development, including development for handheld devices, for more than three decades, so no need to just assume I am a complete naif.
[General Questions and Answers] Sirgatory:
There are 2 kinds of manila.

Manila3D and Manila2D.

I am not looking at the numbers right now but i can tell you this much: QVGA devices(Tilt, vogue, 8525, etc.) use 2D and VGA devices(Diamond, touch pro, fuze, x1, etc.) use 3D.

There are only a few version of touchflo3D, i believe they are variations of 1.0, then 2.1(2?), and 2.5

Everything else is Manila2D, which goes from (sept 08) 0.11 all the way to (aug 09) ver 2.0

When you went into start>settings>system>touchflo you weren't looking at the Manila version, but the touchflo scrolling version. This is irrelevant.

Looking at the information you've posted, you have a touch pro running the original TF3D 1.0. (1.2)
[General Questions and Answers] Ed Zachary:
Thanks, sirgatory.

Next n00b question. Two really:

Can manila (on my TP CDMA) be upraded to 2.X?

Where can I get the uprade (and the FM for it)?
[General Questions and Answers] Sirgatory:
Yes it can, however the easiest way is to flash a cooked ROM from ppcgeeks.com, as they deal with CDMA touch pros more than xda does. I'm not sure how to go about using a CAB file to update it.

But beware if you've never flashed a ROM before, you should read up on the process, especially for CDMA phones.
[General Questions and Answers] Angelusz:
`You don't want to use a CAB. First of all, TF3D1 is integrated into your OS so much, if you take it out (which you'd have to do manually, thousands of manila files), it will mess up a lot of your OS. Installing it on top of your current manila might cause other errors.

Only way to do it properly, is by flashing a ROM with TF3D2 - there's many of them around.

I'm getting something similar, but the other apps that are crashing are handsent and google voice. As it stands I can't make phone calls, and my contacts don't sync. I would say it's a radio issue, but everything else works fine. Oh well, I'm going to go browse through the how to thread and see if I come up with something.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] momohammed20:
I saw some people having the same problems as yours. I would recommend doing the "Daredevil steps" from Amon_RA's how to root the mytouch thread. Then flash a 32B firmware on your phone. I believe you may be getting those errors due to the 32A firmwares being intended to work on 32A boards with more memory. I have cyan's 32B rom on my myTouch and it's working great
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] motivecc:
typically, you'll get these errors if you did not do a data wipe before you installed the rom...

i would suggest you data wipe, revert back to the recovery rom in the root process, wipe again, then apply the update
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] leiko49:
I was planning on wiping the data on my google data base as well. I'm sure I can find out how to do your data wipe idea by reading through the forum. However, if you would be willing to give me a direction here, would be a nice shortcut, and I would be appreciative of your assistance. :rolleyes:

I'm using this 32A based rom as a first foray into the altenative rom world, as a way to learn about how to do this. I will eventually be taking a daredevil approach back to 32b, I suppose, but would like to see if I can get this working.

While the error messages come up saying the phone program will shut down, I can still make and take calls, and pretty much do everything, but can't sync contacts, probably because of data base contradictions (between google and android).

Dave
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] majoraccent:
I'm getting the same problem after rooting my mytouch. I had constant errors with the 32A identical to the ones leiko49 posted, along with performance issues, even after flashing to the 32B radio.img and running CM's 3.9.10, after having done a complete data wipe from recovery-RAv1.2.0G.

The device seemed smoother, but had problems with the phone portion such as failing on most outgoing calls and not receiving any incoming calls. I returned to recovery mode, did a complete data wipe again, reflashed 3.9.10 and booted it up. Testing the phone showed the same initial symptoms as before, but after about 1-2 minutes it seemed to hook onto the network properly and calls seem to go through fine in both directions now.

I'll post any updates if I notice it giving problems again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] leiko49:
I deleted all contacts in google on the web, unchecked syc contacts on the device, all unexpected stoppages have disappeared. So far everything appears to be working perfectly on 32 a rom. I had suspected from reading other related forums that the attempt to syc incompatable data fields was the problem with the error messages. This appears to fix the problem completely. I'll keep you posted.

I think next step (after a couple days of error free use of phone) will be to re syc outlook with google, then resycn google with android, see if the problem re appears. I hope that it won't because when it resyncs with android will just sync the compatable fields. But I really don't know much about this.

Then, since it was so successful, will eventually go over to a 32 b rom, I suppose, have to read more about pros and cons of that.

Thanks Guys!!!!
[G1 General] AdrianK:
Why not tell us the problem(s) you're having? It seems to make much sense to get it back to stock rather than risking your warranty.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Software can't cause physical breakage, therefore no need to worry. They are obligated to warranty it for physical problems regardless of the state of the software.

Of course, damage due to abuse is not covered by the warranty, so you would be REAL lucky if they're dumb enough to warranty it anyways.
[G1 General] AdrianK:
Software may not cause physical damage, but rooting does void the warranty, so they aren't obligated to repair to it.
[G1 General] tank65:

[G1 General] lbcoder:
You really need to look things up and think about them in terms of LAW before spewing out nonsense. It is ILLEGAL to deny a warranty claim due to modifications that are absolutely unrelated to the claim. Yes, software modification does void the warranty... ON THE SOFTWARE. NOT the hardware. Can you imagine what car manufacturers would do if this wasn't the case? Warranty void if you unscrew the fuel cap.
[G1 General] AdrianK:
Okay, calm down. I assumed it would be system wide. Still, I personally wouldn't send it back rooted.
[G1 General] jashsu:
I don't have my G1 documentation handy (it's on the other side of the world) but iirc the entire thing is warranted as a single product, not hardware and software separately. I'm pretty sure that if the warranty has been voided for any reason (even if its unrelated to the error being addressed in the warranty claim) then it is the warrantor's discretion whether to perform service.

For example, if you voided the warranty by opening the case to take a look at the interior and then a month later your UMTS amplifier dies, even though the two events are probably unrelated, HTC would not be required to perform a repair.
