Isn't it amazing what the Internet brings up? That's why I love our community. Without it, we wouldn't have wonderful inventions like this! Brilliant! Keep developing, please...it would be lovely to use a fully functional S620 Android edition in the future
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
I also share your same thought :). I really don't know if this stills under development anymore, since I think these devs moved to other devices. I hope we can see more dev in this topic.
[HTC Excalibur] tutsuo:
First off i wanna say this is amazing LOL well done. im not sure what were supposed to do with this but... it loads and everything but once it loads i cant really do anything i cant make calls or even hit almost any button it says something crashed and "force close" my wifi failed to start etc.. i can slide the apps thing open and go into options thats it everything else crashes it even shutting down it crashes...

the problem is described (by me) here, couple of months ago

so far no solution

i've tried recompiling the linux core with new framebuffer settings... for couple of different values. basically... similar results... so, it's not worth the time (IMHO)

Hi,

I have a quick question about Imeem if anyone can help.

When a track is playing, pressing the Menu button shows a menu with a Download option. However, Download is always disabled for me. Does anyone know how I can actually download Imeem tracks?

Thanks,

Lee
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] littld:
Presenting a simple little vb script (yes, these can be dangerous so tread carefully) which successfully copies over all those little "folder.jpg" files from your computer to your phone.

Works for S2P, Nitrogen, Windows Media Player, HTC Audio Manager and probably all the other more obscure ones as well.

What it does:

It looks though all your music folders in your phone and copies the album art over from your PC

It doesn't copy them if they're already there (clever, huh?) which makes it very quick

What it doesn't do

It doesn't organize playlists, sort things into alphabetical order or play music or anything like that

How to use it:

1. Extract the file "AlbumArtSync" from the zip attached below and then double click it to run it. You can read it line by line first if you like

2. Follow the instructions - specify a source folder (e.g. your music folder) like this:

3. Select a destination folder (this might be an F:\Music folder, for example. It doesn't work with activesync but does work with cards and it works if you attach your device as a "Disk Drive" if you get that option.

4. Wait for it to complete. If successful, it will tell you how many albums it has updated. Like this:

Some more useful notes

1. If you don't organize your music into folders like "artist\album\track" then this isn't for you

2. If you don't understand point 1 (above) then it probably isn't for you

3. If you use embedded album art with media monkeys, this might not be for you either

3. If you don't have album art or don't want it, then you don't need this

4. If your albums have lots of odd characters in the names like "*[{" then it might not work. Hint: rename them.

5. If you sync your music another way like a perl script on a quad-processor Linux wristwatch computer on your home wireless network then that's nice, you're very clever but this isn't really for you either

6. If someone has stopped you from running vbs scripts on your work computer, I can't help you

If you (like me) just use built-in Windows Media Player to sync playlists and tracks but it refuses to ever copy the album art, don't want to waste a lifetime trying workarounds (that don't) and don't want to embed 1200 or so MP3s and WMAs with jpegs which behave perfectly well outside the music file then this MIGHT be for you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] brunoisa10:
good idea

does it extract the album art from MP3 ?

Does it make one directory by Artist ? with the Album art in it ?

I'll try it this evening :P
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] littld:
No, it will only take album art which you already have on yur PC and copies it to your device if that music is on your device. Windows Media Player usually creates the file on the PC all by itself. One directory per album per artist.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] brunoisa10:
tested

result : no album art copied :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hanackin:
thanks a lot this can be really useful :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] quicksite:
This looks fantastic -- and highly-needed! Damn, looks like I have to go use my PC for this... I say this because on my Mac I purchased last year a great album art search and download app for itunes called "TuneUp" -- and that gizmo has practically filled every album art vacancy in my library.

Do you happen to know how I can (a) first get & make all that album art work on my PC's version of itunes?... Is that easy to do? Any hints?

(b) ... then I could use this tool you've created to get them to my WM phone, right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] littld:
Okay, TuneUp will have created all those album art pictures embedded in the music files. I think if they are mp3 and you can import them into Windows Media Player then it should create those folder.jpg files for you and then it should hopefully work. Good luck.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] quicksite:
Thank you! ... D'OH! I just googled "TuneUp art Mac to PC" and found out TuneUp is for Macs AND PC's ... I forgot about that!

This is from a review at The Gadgeteer from February 2009:

So I am guessing this will be even easier now... As an FYI for all those who've never tried it, I tried so many freeware utilities and scripts that would automatically transfer a song's title into a google image query, or amazon CD query, and the results were never very satisfying. Yes, maybe 10% of the time such freeware would find matching artwork, but it got to the point where I looked at the amount of labor and mental focus it took to find the art, drag it into itunes, etc. ... fwiw, I think TuneUp is one of the best software utilities I've purchased in over 20 years.

Sorry, this wasn't meant to be a commercial... it;s just that finally with your new app, having artwork on players like NITROGEN or the brand new version of S2P would greatly improve the usability of sorting visually by album art.. thus the more artwork available, the merrier. Thanks for your fast reply! Cant wait to try this.

Hi,

I've been attempting to use HTC mail with an IMAP account at work (for now via WiFi on the same network as the mail server) but after configuring the account HTC mail never automatically syncs (it's set for every 15 minutes) and when I force a refresh from the app's menu it thinks for a bit and then force closes, every time, without downloading any of my mail. Has anyone else had similar issues with HTC Mail?

I've previously been able to use HTC mail with my Gmail account via IMAP but for some reason this IMAP account causes it to fall over in a heap. It's a basic IMAP account, user name & password but no SSL/TLS, port 143, SMTP on the same server, port 25, no login and also no security. I'm using MCR 2.2e, but I don't think that should make any difference, should it? I've tried stopping HTC Mail from the Application Manager, clearing it's cache and it's data and starting from scratch several times but it makes no difference. Any ideas?

hi to all xda family, i need ur help please.

i am using imate jasjam hermes 100, i am having an annoying problem with my set. The front buttons of my jasjam stop working suddenly, but the light behind the bottom two call buttons still remains on even i go to stand by time using side power key. Sometimes the screen fades away and a blank white screen appears. It seems to me that the the cell hangs temporarily as after sometime it starts working fine (in some cases i have to soft reset the device). but in the scenario described above my cell is in on state as if someone calls me, i can hear the caller tone. i just wanna ask to all of you that if it is a software problem or a hardware problem and how to solve that.

i am using joshkoss manila2d plane jane version with radio rom 1.16.0.0 and hardspl 2.10 installed. i've also tried tai 6.5 roms, but the problem still exists.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lynxxx:
I think, it's better, to look first in the FAQ in this Forum and the xda-Wiki for the basics, to understand what you do?

the cab file is in the "CAB Files"-folder: take for example this one: HTC Camera 5.04.29195.cab. Softreset. Or search here in this subform for the original camera.cab.

If not, I understand. Just been trying to play with the VoIP with sipdroid, but no luck yet.

Thanks,

Just thought I'd add this in,

I was digging around for native program for the G1 & the MT3G being I have both now, and it looks like there might be hope for 1 program if we can get enough people to vote for it.

I did a search, but didn't see anything related to icall.com in the forums.

The web address is http://www.icall.com/

You will see on the left side a place to vote for it. Hoping alot of you do, as I have this for my Wife's Iphone and it works well. though I just noticed this morning that there taking votes for the next release.

Cheers, here's hoping

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] eugene373:
Turns out, you don't need GV to get Sipdroid to work.

I signed up for an account from http://phone.ipkall.com for the phone number.

In the Setup ( Sign up Page ) change you sip number to your Gizmo5 sip Number ( 1747XXXXXXX ) & set your SIP Proxy to proxy01.sipphone.com

all incoming phone calls so far ring, and I've not had any problem making calls on 3G or WiFI calls. Edge calls are kinda laggy, but over all it working great minus Edge calls.

Hope this help those that are wanting to play around with the VoIP.

I only needed this due to signal from t-Mobile is far from none at my Grandparents house, So now I can still call my Wife ( and Receive ) or whoever if needed via WiFi calls.

It's a cut & dry setup, but if you need help just ask.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bennyb0y:
I have an MDA Vario III, and recently became a convert to Shifu's V16 and V17 ROMs. But just before I flashed to Shifu's, I flashed the official T-Mobile UK WM6.1 ROM from their Support Web site.

Once I did I noticed that when I used "Letter Recognizer" and my stylus, you could see where the stylus would trace, but it would do a silly occasional jump as if I were making a quick downward stroke, when in fact I wasn't. I have a Martin Fields protection screen on the screen too.

Has anyone else seen this strange and weird kind of behaviour? Love my MDA Vario III / Kaiser, but could be just a faulty handset?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Dillsnik:
Hi,

I am a pretty basic user and way back when there was a change to Manilla that i really didn't like, and all newer versions seem to have this one annoying feature that almost kills all newer ROMS for me. It's in the messaging, specifically SMS, where (i believe) if u enter a message thread by clicking the message, there's a centered text box now and the soft keys have changed. Where "send" used to be, now there is "back." I can't tell you how many mssgs i've lost because i accidentilly hit the back button.

I think this happened from one version of Manilla to the next? If so can anyone tell me which version incorporated the change so i can look for the older versions, or if there is a fix out there to get back to simple threaded sms

TIA!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tychodebrahe:
Thing you are describing is feature of manila 2.0 and higher. There is simply solution thanks to user CMYLXGO. Try google for "cmylxgo rhodium sms app disable". Install the cab and next time you tap the message you get the well known windows SMS application ;)

Hi all,

I created this thread to collect informations, suggestions and links for who want to start learning developing android applications, whitout being an expert developer.

I like programming (vb6, vb.net :o ) but I don't know anything about android and linux, and just a little about java... Now I bought an Hero and I met android world... I downladed Eclipse IDE, Android SDK and I starded with dev guide on SDK... I just take a look to helloandorid application... it works!:) and now? In the xml layout seems easy to add View like buttons or text... but how can I handle to the user actions like the button click? in vb is simple to manage the buttonpressed event...!:(

If someone knows some simple guides about java, eclipse and android, please let links on this thread!

Thank you!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
You'll need to use Eclipse to my knowledge as its all Java based. The other alternatives are the IntelliJ plugin and doing it all from Command line/Text Editor.

Back to the Topic, I'm just trying my hand at a little Android development this week too, the tutorials and manuals at developer.android.com have been great!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
Another thing, while I remember, if you've done any sort of .NET/ASP.NET development before you should find it a breeze, apart from the lack of Visual Studio (best IDE that ever was), they're VERY similar compared to some other languages/technologies I've used.

im actually developing a few games, but im running into some seemingly basic issues, that i seem i cannot get to work. basically a button mash game, single/multi player, well on multi player i cannot for my life get the multi player functions to work, as in in the end the game already knows who the winner is based on an integer score, then it is supposed to use an sqlite database to take the highest scored player such as P1 or P2 and allow them to input there name to be permanently displayed. it cannot seem to differentiate using IF statements, but the feature does work with single player flawlessly, i may link source code if asked, TY

I bought a T-Mobile G1 off ebay, but its locked :(

If I flash the rom will it unlock it? I have no reply from seller and tmobile wont give me unlock code unless original user contacts them (must be 90 days use)

Or anyone know how to unlock? I'm in Australia :(

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
When you flash the phone it will not unlock it. You can use one of the other unlocking services they offer online.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneonly:
Do they work? Is there anyway I can get it done free?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Yes they work. Alot of people on here have done it. The only way you can get it done for free is thru T-Mobile. Even tho you bought the phone second hand they should still do it for you, but being your in Australia I don't know if there policy is different. You can try to find someone you trust in the US and give them you IMEI and have them call it in for you.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crpercodani:
Good luck with tmo, I tried everything even when I was a customer and they said wait 90 days. After I cancelled with them and asked again they said you have to be a customer with G1 data plan for 90 days. Other then that there is NO NO NO free way to unlock.

I have unlocked my girls G1 and my own with www.unlock-tmobileg1.com for $24 bucks and I got the code in about 20 minutes, another member here asked me what to use and I pointed him to them, he got his code in 12 minutes. I heard you can do it on ebay for a little less but I never tried it so I can't say for sure.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Yea I don't think that would work for me considering I had that line for about 3 years. And I won't get rid of my other line with the G1 so they would be like you get service on one phone but not the other.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crpercodani:
Tell them your son is in a boarding school out in the boondocks and he gets no service there. Just use the coverage map and see what area closest to you get little to no service. They will take 3 or 4 days to check it out then you can get out with no ETF. Gotta be crafty with your lies, just cuz you had service for 3 years doesn't matter much since now your son is going to school in a area without any reception, with you being a long standing customer AND having other lines they would rather keep you happy and lose 1 lines then risk losing you completely.
