i'm not understanding the spl part. do i have to flash a new spl before i install the rom? i'm coming from winmo, so this is all very new to me. i've read a bunch of guides including the 1 click method guide on android and me, and the wiki here, but i'm just not understanding a couple of things. just need a little guidance and i should be off and running.

i am going to try the 1 click method and in the guide on how to do that, there is no mention of flashing the spl and radio. do i need to flash a new spl and radio before installing this rom? i want to use cynogens stable ROM 4.04. appreciate the help for a newb

Hi,

My Alpine facing problem with "Power" button recently.

When it hung, I pushed stylus in RESET hole & I didnt knew that POWER button was STRUCKED :mad: :mad: :mad:

So, I have hard-resetted my Alpine instead of soft reset :(

And lost my DATA.

Then I decided to dis-assemble my alpine to fix the strucked power button.

I've gone through http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=AlpineResearch page & didn't found clear steps to dis-assemble my Alpine.

Then I've no choice to take a risk & dis-assemble my Alpine.

Yes, I did it successfully & Fixed power button too.

Here I wanted to share those dis-assembling pics with you people.

I was wondering since folks have been able to port the HTC Music Player out of Hero into other ROMS I was REALLY hoping someone figured out a way to do the same for the PDF Reader. It renders PDF files that other PDF readers hiccups with flawlessly and I'm gonna say goodbye to my Hero ROM for the more practical CyranogenMod. Thus I thought it would be awesome if this could be ported or someone is already working on it, surely if it isn't already it should be since it doesn't seem as heavy duty as the HTC Music Player which is already ported out :D

and incase i get any snark yes I searched in here with "PDF" but get "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." so any help would be appreciated :)
[G1 Apps and Games] palosjr:
i doubt you searched. PDF brought up a huge list for me here are my results.. PDF viewer is already available is most of the ROMs around here, i know for a fact cyanogens latest experimental has it, im looking at it right now on my phone lol. if you want it, just pull it from a build and install/push with adb or using linda.
[G1 Apps and Games] G_won:
lmao... see the thing is I did search, but I used the forum search & never the Google search :(

Good ol'google to the rescue, thanks though haha. I already thought bad of this post the very moment I flashed Cyranogen and seen PDF Viewer & QuickOffice lol ... :(
[G1 Apps and Games] palosjr:
its cool, just glad you got things going. dont think bad, at least you are asking good questions and tried to search before yelling HELP!!!

best of luck, you got questions, SEARCH and then SEARCH some more and then ask.
[G1 Android Development] pixel-painter:
Archos just released it's android Pmp and has downloadable HD WMV and MPEG2 plugins. I guess they have to be purchased, but was wondering if this could be ported to G1 as it seems it would be pretty cool just to get a working mpeg2 codec.

It is a little difficult to decipher what they are saying here, but it almost seems like they are intimating that the Android pmp can read mkv too.

If only we could get a dump of this Andoid OS :)
[G1 Android Development] AdamPI:
Well apart from not being legal, their codecs will come without source code and be coded for acceleration on that hardware.
[G1 Android Development] javacody:
I've wanted an Archos PMP for a while, but now I REALLY want one!

Do I need one? Nah.

But I am drooling over this one.
[G1 Android Development] Gary13579:
As stated above, would be impossible.

I would be impossible (or rather, infeasible) to write any HD codecs in Java, so the chances of it strictly using the stock Android SDK is out the window. It's more than likely using the NDK, or worse, a highly customized version of Android, to do HD decoding.

Then, the ONLY chance of it working on the Dream, is if the hardware matches. I can't find the exact specs of it, but it's using an OMAP3 CPU, which throws any chance of it working out the window.
[G1 Android Development] pixel-painter:
^^ Ahhh well. Makes sense, thanks for the input.. one can always dream :p
[G1 Android Development] Constrabus:
And so we have the HTC Dream
[G1 Android Development] clarkeismine:
I would assume they ported already done codecs from C to C using the NDK.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
Hey Guys,

I happen to stumble upon some websites today that say Android 1.6 is now released. Is it true? Any ideas if Hero could be upgraded to this newer OS?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeeDroid:
The SDK has launched so developers can beigin to dev some new apps around the new framework and run Donut in the VM.

The update is looking set to roll out to devices in October, not sure how long it will take to get to us hero users?? :D

Would be posible in no time with a good chef on board, the G1 and magic seem to be benefiting from certain Donut updates as we speak :eek:
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
The upcoming "Hero" on Sprint will have a Donut-based OS (Android 1.6). This is self-evident since Sprint is a CMDA network, and Donut is the first iteration of the OS to support CDMA. I would imagine that since the GSM Hero and the CDMA "Hero" have very similar specs, with the exception of the radio, it shouldn't take a competent chef too long to cook up a GSM version of the ROM.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barryallott:
The SDK was released meaning you can directly develop against it.

jus wondering what the diff in for example OS like cupcake (1.5 yes?) and donut (1.6) is with respect to the ROMs...

The Hero is on 1.5, are other android phones also on 1.5?.....is there like some guide on this stuff.....can we upgrade our OS (officially) to newer ones or we will have to do with OS 1.5 on hero and jus update ROMs?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paraniodandroid:
Hi,

I was just wondering if it's possible to flash system.img from the Android 1.6 SDK (well can be 1.5 as well :D) to the HTC Magic and if so will it work (map buttons, light indicators etc.)?

Would you also need to flash the boot and recovery then?

And at last would it all be possible with a stock SPL?

Thanks.

1 - Please inform if is there any ROM WM 6.5 with Opera supporting Flash Player 3.1 ?

2 - And in WM 6.1 is there any version of Opera that support Flash?

At WM 6.1 I tested Opera 16702 which has Flash, but unfortunately, after soft reset it disable Flash Player!!!!

3 - I heard about IE8 as a good browser. Is there any ROM that has IE8?

Thanks very much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Choop:
another way is .... try skyfire browser, its fast and support flash / quicktime
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sergio76:
all operas suport flash just install "fix opera flash" just use search and type it.

You wll find it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cribeiro:
I like the way as Opera operate.

I have tried "fix opera flash" with opera 16643 and opera crash, eg: open site

http://www.tmn.pt/portal/site/tmn

Opera 16702 (which it's supposed to support flash) works, but after soft reset doesn't work anymore the flash.

My original ROM is WWE 1.19.401.0 with original opera 16643.

So, please answer:

Is there any ROM WM 6.5 or 6.1 with Opera supporting flash, even after soft reset?

Thanks very much.

Hi criberio

I think you may get more answers if you post in the thread specifically related to the Fix Opera Flash software.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sergio76:
No.

You need to use Fix opera flash.

It work just fine for me.

And if you reset device to default just use "fix opera flash" again it takes less time then a soft reset.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Dimlow_uk:
Ok i am using the p3300 as a covert tracker and have installed a large external LI-PO battery, not the LI-ION that is normally used in the phone.

Because the li-poly battery can be discharged to a lower voltage before it is considered low battery, than a li-ion battery, id like to be able to set the switch off voltage level to be lower, before the unit switches off. so that a can fully use the power in the battery. As it stands with the large battery (8800 Mah 4 2200 Mah cells in parallel) windows is shutting the unit down before the battery is discharged. I think this is around 3.6 volts , but the LI-Poly battery can be discharge to around 3v under load before its considered flat. and im only using around 60% of the batterys power like this.

Is there any way to change this in the registry, so that i can fully discharge the battery and get a longer life out of it. I'm sure i read something like this on here a year or so ago, but i cant find any info now.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] ovidiugrig:
Very interesting post. I'm not sure if you can modify that value in the registry but I'll try to dig on it and let you know if I find something.

I'm using a CECT W800 which is a clone of HTC P3300 and have a problem with the battery when using it as GPS on the car. To be more exact the battery gets depleted even with the charger on in about 2 hours or so. I thought about trying to replace the battery with a more powerful one (even if I would have to put it outside of it) but got stuck when I found out that it needs to be a compatible battery in terms of communication protocol. Do you know more about this? Can you please give me some details or hints?

Thanks.

Hi i recenlty Sold my Iphone 3G to try a WM phone , and got the Touch HD ( since i'm a big fan of big screen s ) :D

but after trying different Roms , i realized that the device is rather Slow ...

wanted to know if the TouchPro2 Performed faster and if anyone suggests that i should change to the Pro2 ? ( but i read in the spec of both of the Phone that their CPU and RAM are the same )

Thx in advance
[General Questions and Answers] style1:
yeah they are spec'd the same i believe. I found that after I ran the right ROM on my HD it felt like a completely different phone. If anything hold out for the Leo...its packing snapdragon(1GHz) and a bunch of HTC goodness.
[General Questions and Answers] SkyWalker1726:
So both TouchPro2 and Touch HD perform @ the same speed ?
[General Questions and Answers] style1:
528MHz

they both are running at about the same speed just optimized differently...you can find a bunch of Topaz and Rhodium styled ROM's out there
[General Questions and Answers] orb3000:
TP is a great device!:)
[General Questions and Answers] badasschris:
if you can change to the tp2 without it costing much i would do that because of the keyboard (I have touch hd), you will go down a bit on screen size whichw ill be a shame and I dont think tp2 has a 3.5 mm jack out which is just stupid but anyway yeah I would try the tp2 for the keyboard.

for speed I would first try out the topaz rom I havent found another rom that seems so speedy 100s of times better than stock. Having a speedy rom really makes you appreciate your phone a lot more.
[General Questions and Answers] SkyWalker1726:

[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
IMHO, i dont think the tp 2 will perform any better than the HD. Of course the keyboard maybe useful, but the HD is thinner and sexier :D

If you can hold out for the Leo (i want one now!!!) but who knows when it will be released........

As for HD roms, obviously the newer roms (6.5 either 2.1 or 2.5) are beta, due to not being released by MS yet, hence some may have issues/bugs. But dont dispear, they are getting quicker and more stable. Try any newer ones from Dutty, NRGZ or Miri or if you want the very latest try the new build from PDAVIET.

They are all better than the current stock rom, I personally love the 2.5 ;) has a couple of bugs, but we are getting there.:)
[General Questions and Answers] galaxys:
The TP2 is cool, but if U can wait then the Leo will be much cooler ;)
[General Questions and Answers] badasschris:
although the leo dosent have a kepboard which is why i wont be getting it, I love my touch hd but ive had enough with a purely touch screen phone. I'm waiting on an android phone that has good processor capacitive screen (large high res) and keyboard or i might just get the nokia n900

maybe they will release a leo pro with a keyboard then I might consider it.
[General Questions and Answers] Lyian:
good luck, from what ive seen Android isnt taking off like everyone though it would. None of the carriers seem to keen on supporting it. Tho i did see a topic on PPC where they are dual booting WM phones and running Android on them :P

The Leo does look pretty sweet, but i agree, it needs a keyboard. It will have a capacitive touchscreen, and 3.5mm jack tho (along with the snapdragon processor) Just add a keyboard and we have ourselves a dam near perfect device. So long as its configured/optimized properly.

It kinda makes me sad, that they announced this after i got my TP2, but its bound to happen. As soon as they release the Leo (whenever that will be) couple months after, a new, better device will be announced. Thats the tech world for ya.

As for the Touch Pro 2, yea ive noticed it does lag sometimes. Tho i haven't installed any custom roms either, which may likely help it (to date, i don't know of any roms specifically for it). Im also a bit worried about bricking this thing while trying.
[General Questions and Answers] badasschris:
it's way too early to say they haven't taken off. The problem so far is that a good android device hasn't been released yet. The experia x3 looks nice similar specs to leo but a much better camera, still no keyboard though :( .
[General Questions and Answers] rafalinx:
I have a Touch Pro. It's great.

If I was buying now, i'd buy a TP2. :)

Capacitive screen = DO NOT WANT (give me a stylus or give me death!)
[General Questions and Answers] mentalee:
If you're not into trying custom roms I found that even some of the tweaks or Registry Hacks would speed up the phone a bit. Personally I didn't like the Touch Flow and turned it all off in favor of just the plain WinMo look (modded a bit of course). Additionally I turned off the HTC Dialer Skin and used the WinMo dialer that was running on avg about 8m less in memory and was just as functional (minus the reject call w/ txt functionality).

Out of the box my phone had program memory usage up in 38-43% range. Now it's typically 21-28% and running much faster in my opinion.

Use JZ SmartMort. In the JZ Settings program: General Tweaks / Hacks -> JBed Java -> JBed Font Sizes. Mess around with them to your content. :)

Before you do that though, do take a look at the font settings within Opera Mini itself: Settings -> Font size

1. I cannot find the program to launch it again after i close it. When i look under the drop down of programs running, all thats listed is "Java FX", which when clicked, does take me back to the browser. Is their not its own icon?
