I remember trying to help people root their phones. I remember sitting down for hours at a time trying to explain to someone what to do. It gets very frustrating. Although I'm not a developer, I try to help the developers by answering the simple questions in the thread to get the community moving in the right direction of actually helping the developer debug their builds and applications. I remember recently there was a thread where 12 pages of it were, "how do you use adb?" I understand people want to learn, and asking questions are healthy, but if all you do and ask questions without doing research first, you're just irritating many of us who have contributed and created thorough and comprehensive stickies for those who need it. Looking through the threads and the majority of people that are flaming other people are newbs themselves.

I completely agree with giving an OP semi-moderator privileges (and giving those OP the power to appoint sub-moderators for their threads). An OP should be able to moderate their own thread. It would also take some of the weight off any of the actual forum moderators if you think about it. I also agree with the forum turning into a technical support site. Being a member of xda since November last year, I've noticed the shift from actual development threads, to the development threads being nearly 50% actual development/debugging content and the other 48% of "how do I root, or use adb, or what is an SDK?" with the last remaining being 2% of people arguing with each other. I feel this needs to stop in order for us to keep order and positive progression of the Android Platform on XDA.
[G1 Android Development] Gary13579:
While although the original post is nice, it is useless to be reposting it, especially in the wrong forum to do so. I see this turning into nothing but a big argument however, so I am closing it now.

Yes, it is unfortunate and frustrating about how many new people come here just to get Hero working, and don't care about how it works. These are also the people who will end up bricking their phones and posting even more threads about it. This has already been discussed many a times in many a threads, however.

I use CHSO1, but touch screen is not so sensitive, but after I flashed WEEO4 rom, the screen is quit sensitive. Can we pick-up WWEO4 touch screen driver for CHS01? Thanks!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] xiaojin1985:
No,many drivers were changed from low layer,all written by Cotulla,they were dependent on a main driver dll,not only themselves,Cotulla have written a main function as a wrapper for many new drivers.

And there have another limit set,you can't make new driver works in old ROMs by simply copying.

Why all applications for wm 6.1 doesn't function on htc magician?

For example when i would to install some application with wm 5/6 support it doesn't function on my pda.

The process of the install finished good but the application doesn't work on my PDA.

So i can use only packege apllications for wm 6.1(in htc magician) or not all programs runs on this rom?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sualc:
Ok, now i know it can work flawlessly doing a hardreset, so my fault..will have to put all the stuff (well not all,i guess;)) again. But gosh do i have to check if it works even if i put stuff like tomtom or sportypal back on? I'm sure it's either HDTweak or AndvancedConfig, i unistalled them but no use. I guess they leave "bad" settings for my purpose even if unistalled.

Well, bye

[Touch HD General] acolytelee:
So far I don't have a 3g plan. I would like to update the weather/stock data everytime the HD is sync with my PC with internet.

I can do this manually but it's better if it's auto-refreshed.

(it would be even better if the data gets refreshed every certain minutes when sync)
[Touch HD General] acolytelee:
no one knows it? no one needs it?:(
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
One possible solution would be to setup your device to download weather/stock automatically (for example every hour) and disable 3G/internet activity by using NoData app.

This means your device won't be able to auto-update when not connected via activesync as you have disabled 3G activity but will be able to update when connected via activesync. Just toggle off internet & WAP on NoData
[Touch HD General] acolytelee:
thanks, I tried this myself.

but every time I open the weather tab, I got an error msg says that there is not i-net connection. this is a bit annoying ...

the quickGPS works much better, when I sync with a PC, it starts it self and fetch the data in background from i-net.
[Touch HD General] ecb5:
yeah! anyone knows how to get rid of that message everytime i go to the weather tab?
[Touch HD General] ALPO1:
Anyone have a better solution out there yet. I would also want the Stocks and Weather update with every Sync. I know it does it when the Weather Tab is selected, I would just rather it automatically update even if left on the home screen on every Docking.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjay:
Ok, probably not. There's gotta be a perfectly valid explanation, but I just noticed this:

When I open Albums on my Hero and look at a single photograph, I can zoom in and out by pinching. Same goes for web pages. We all know this.

But the thing is: if I put my phone down on the table and try to pinch with just one hand (thumb+index finger), it doesn't work!

I only need to touch the phone with one finger on my left hand and it starts working. I have to touch the back or the frame. The chin doesn't react.

I tried it on an iPhone and it works with only one hand. It must be some conductivity issue and the Hero simply has a touch screen that works differently from iPhones.

It isn't really a problem for me: I can hold the phone in both hands while pinching. I just found it slightly interesting...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenorGR:
Yeah I have noticed that as well. Although if you try to calibrate using the g-sensor calibration tool it sometime fixes the issue...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil_UK:
Clue is in the technology? Capacitative touch screen....hit the physics books guys ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Switchbitch:
A good capacitive screen doesn't require the user to complete a circuit with the phone using another hand to hold it, or by touching the bezel with a finger. The problem is either in the circuitry driving the touchscreen or possibly with the algorithms used to establish finger gestures and position.

It's even feasible that the metal bezel interferes with the electrostatic field introduced when your finger is in proximity with the screen. This would explain why the sensitivity is reduced around the edges of the screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbanbury:
Spose you need to form a complete circuit for it to work. Interesting point though, I didn't know that capacitive screens needed a second 'plate' to work (i.e. more than just the screen alone).

Makes sense though if you think about it.

Q.I indeed :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thiesen:
The metal bezel actually acts like a ground point between the capacitive circuitry and your finger. When you are touching at the very edges of the capacitive area there simply isn't enough room to get a good grounding point so the driver/controller gets a hard time of locating what points are actually grounded. The bezel helps in this regard.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbanbury:
...perhaps not then lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjay:
Yeah, well I hate to be the one to ask, but why does it work on the iPhone then? ;) I realize it's a grounding / closed circuit issue, but if another similar phone can do it, then there's obviously a way around it.

And another question: Why doesn't pinching work, but normal one-fingered touching does?

Only place where I could see this becoming a problem is when you dock your device to some plastic holder in a car and want to pinch to zoom in some navigator software. Letting go of the steering wheel to use two hands on your phone isn't necessarily the safest thing in the world. One would assume though, that the interface in any navigator software wouldn't require complex gestures while operating it...

Sry for the idiotic questions but i am new onto this scene and have little information on what is going on. If someone could please help with my situation it would be greatly appreciated!:)

I am currently confused on which one to do first.

all tutorials i have seen have said that i need a recovery to flash an engineering spl, and all recovery's need an engineering spl.

I have taken all the steps necessary on the tutorials but all have been rejected. I can never get past the first step of booting it onto my phone.

Which one do i flash to my phone first and how do i do it?

I have downloaded the amonRA recovery-RAv1.2.1G.img but am unable to fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.1G.img.

(only cmd that i have entered)

Where do i save the recovery file and what cmd steps am I taking wrong?

Also I have downloaded the Engineering SPL 1.33.2004 and have the zipped folder on my desktop.

tutorial says to send to the root of my SD card.

Were is the root and yet again wht cmd do i need to use to flash this over?

And how do make my phone rooted??

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] htcclay:
Okay...

I know its a lot to take in at first.

My suggestion is to slow down a bit and tackle one thing at a time.

1. The root of your sd card is what pops up on your pc when you select mount on your mytouch after its attached via usb.

Follow this tutorial http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-root-the-mytouch-3g-or-g1-in-one-click/

The files go on a freshly formatted fat32 sd card and in no folders.

For now I wouldn't worry about doing anything with your SPL or radio until this is done with success.

Good luck:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ANoft3:
Thank you very much for the advice
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ANoft3:
Ok so that went very smoothly onto my phone.

Now my question is do I have to partition just fat 32 or both fat 32+ext32+swap to get a ROM?

And do i need to flash an engineering SPL before getting a new ROM?

I also see that in the recovery it says format sd fat 32 and format sd fat32+ext2+swap.

Does this relate to the partitioning at all?

Same question for the choice of convert ext2 to ext3?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mr_raider:
I see no need to flash SPL or radio if the trick on unlockr allowed you to successfully flash a new ROM. The ROMs here already incorporate super user access. You should NOT flash your SPL unless you have a very good reawson to do it.

As for your partitioning question:

fat32 is standard for removable USB devices and SD cards. EXt2 is default old school linux. EXt2 partition is needed for apps2SD which installs apps on the SD card instead of memory. The swap partition is like windows page file. The Hero based ROMs can use it.

If you have a 32a magic, the general consensus is don't bother, you have enough memory for everything. For 32b magic, I'll let someone else field the question.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ANoft3:
do i need to format fat32 to install a Cyanogen ROM?

and on the unlockr video it says to do the wipe in the recovery process before installing the ROM.

DO i need to do that as well?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gerson2407:
I have a couple of questions about linux-swap.

So I'm on the Hero 2 rom and I have 32MB swap partition. I want to go to the JACxHEROSki-v2.0 rom and at the same time make my swap partition bigger before I flash but I'm unsure if it's safe to go bigger than a 32MB.

"DO NOT USE MORE THAN 32MB SWAP!!!"

They placed this right above the example of how to partition your SD card on the JACxHEROSki-v2.0 but "RECOMMENDED VALUES linux-swap partition = 64MB" is what they placed as recommendations!!! So I'm a little confused. Anyone want to show a little experience?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
How about this. Re-partition your sdcard with 96mb for linux-swap. Then when you want to change it go to the recovery console and type

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
resize 3 x y
print (to verify it worked)
quit
reboot

Substitue in the start and end points for the file system for the x an y respectively. This will give you the ability to play around with up to 96mb of linux-swap space with the ability to change it out whenever you want without repartitioning the entire sdcard.

Personally testing something is always better than having some one tell you what to use.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian_v3ntura:

I have browsed around various different forums regarding this issue and couldn't find anything definitive. If possible, can I get a developer to answer this question? What size should the linux-swap be to run hero ROM with minimal lag and no "htc" loading screens? I seen one guy say he has 300MB for linux-swap. Is it bad to have your swap set really high? If so, explain. Thanks to anyone with an intelligent answer.
