you can send text messages through www.t-mobile.com but youll only be able to recieve through your phone. other option is google voice. you can see all your sent and received plus you can spam certain numbers + a whole lot more only thing is that you have to get a new phone number but that can be linked to your cell phone.

other option is totally seperate from your phone. gmail allows you to send and receive text messages through their chat box. you just have to turn on the options through the setting.

last option that i know of is aim.... just add the phone number as a buddy and you can send and receive text messages.

i am currently in the middle of a nandroid backup that has been going for about an hour should i pull the battery? i really dont want to corrupt my card because most of my music is on it and i just bought a new computer hard drive because my old one f*cked itself. Any suggestions?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavier6303:
Ive had the same problem. I dont think you need to pull the battery, I just press call (green) menu and end (red). Then delete the nandroid folder on your sd card and reboot into recovery and try backing up again.

Does anyone know if there is a leak of the new MotoBlur UI or rom? or if it's even possible to port to the G1? ...

Just in case someone didn't know, here some info http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/10/live-from-motorolas-android-announcement-at-mobilize-09/

Looks awesome, but i think the device only has the qualcomm ~550MHz cpu..

Waiting for the Motorola Sholes with Snapdragon, whoooo :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bolmedias:
As long as it runs on the Qualcomm architecture that the Dream/Magic/Hero etc. run on, there's no reason why it could not be ported to the Dream. Once it comes out, that is.

Hero STILL doesn't have bluetooth, based on past results, it's very very hard to port this stuff over in a usable manner. The devs are the best, but if we still don't have Hero working, what are the odds of us getting this one anytime soon?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brummiesteven:
I'd say there's a high chance of getting a full working version of "MOTOBLUR" on the G1 before a working version of Sense UI.

Of course nobody can comment before the phone/rom is released but at first glance it doesn't look like the core of android has been edited much, if at all. It's simply the stock android home screen with 2 extra shortcuts at the bottom and some new widgets.

Even the calendar app has remained the same.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dweller88:
http://www.t-mobile.com/promotions/GenericRegular.aspx?PAsset=Pro_Pro_MotoCliqLaunch&WT.mc_id=637m3

go to this page and click on the MotoBlur Demo link on the right hand side to get

a full demo of the UI.

I like the fact that your "inbox" contains messages/gmails/fbook messages all in one list.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcarrz1:
And it has the same screen res and 528mhz processor as the g1 so it shouldn't be too much work to get it on there. This is way more exciting than hero, cuz the hero roms are so slow

what people need to realize is that its not about what official rom we want.. its what from each rom we want.. cause with the way devs keep taking things from all the new roms and putting into current ones.. all we need is to take the best from each and make one bomb rom..lol
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jroid:
devs havent got bluetooth to work cuz the hero source code is closed source. if motorola keeps the source code for the blur UI open, then devs have

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] TyTN4Me:
So I'm backpacking around Europe and decided to go without a PC and wouldn't you know it.... My phone is screwed up.

The problem is that I was using TomTom the other night in Norway and I think I either waterlogged the screen or maybe a driver failed in SW. I have been having problems with a certain software combo on top of PDAUltimate and have had to 'reset' the OS because it got painfully slow.

So my question is about if there is a way to reflash the guy or get it to run the 'reset' process where it reinstalls the OS and clears it without a screen (only keyboard) and while it is locked?

See the screen died but I could still run most apps with just the keys at the bottom. However one of them runs the 'Lock' command on the home screen and that's the one I hit. ;( I could unlock it if I could slide the bar but the screen is not working so I can't do that.

Question #2. Is there a way to work the unlock slider from the buttons?

If I could get back to the start menu then I could run the system reset command there.

I did think about getting the files onto a SIM and use the Hard SPL to reflash so that is my long term solution but for now I have no PC.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] zelendel:
Do a master rest. Hold in the 2 softkeys and use stylus to push reset button. It will reload OS from begining. remember to pull SD and sim cards
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ai6908:
Well it all depends if your ROM had screen alignment and stuff on cold boot or not! If it doesnt, then you are good to go, if not, you have to use the screen.

Disable auto lock for #2

this is just informative for everyone that has the older version and to find direction as I tried every trick i know to fix it.

I take no credit for this at all just letting everyone know there is a new version. all aplicable credit are on his thread.

I have installed on my Mytouch and the only thing that I noticed is that the wifi don't work. just says unable to start. If anyone had any ideas on how to fix this please let me know. As per original article sapphire support was added and has the wlan.ko and a new one there. I have tried to move it over deleting the old one and chmod to 07455 and 777 still wifi don't work. Any ideas please let me know.

I flashed this to my MT3G, then immediately flashed the patch from here:

After flashing the patch you can enjoy a smokin fast Hero rom AND have wifi.

Instead of downloading and applying the above patch, you can also use a terminal or ADB SHELL, just type:

Press 'm' for MyTouch and press enter.

@TheArtiszan

can you give us a heads up how the rom works out after a few hours of use?

all my hero roms (tried EVERYTHING) seems to crap out

but i've NEVER tried 96 mb swap with 40 swappiness

thanks in advance :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] phillip_hooper:
Flash the patch exactly like flashing the rom. After the rom has flashed, choose to flash any zip, but select the patch instead. It will replace the necessary files for you on top of the rom.

Multitouch did not work prior to the update.

ccyrowski posted that he is going to release the fix cooked in later tonight.

Do you have a swap partition set up? My swap seemed buggy so I got Swapper from the market and enabled the swap partition. No more loading screen. (96MB w/ 40 swappiness).

is there a way to verify in swapper that its working? i set it up but im not sure if it kicked in or not.

does it lag at all with 96 mb swap and 40 swappiness?

It's not laggy, but not completely buttery smooth on my class 2 4GB that came with the MT3G (but still way more smooth and responsive than any other hero rom I've tried).

compcache is disabled, and the cpu scaling is default (min 128, max 528, up_threshold 45).

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanmartindj:
Remeber these roms take almost 10 min before you see the setup screen. I would suggest re-repartitioning your sdcard to start fresh (Don't forget to wipe, upgrade ext2 to ext3 and repair ext before flashing!). The re-flash the rom and wait patiently.

Once you finish setup download better terminal emulator from the market and type:

su

rwsystem

magic

It will ask you to ID your device so type

m

It will move the appropriate files and ask for a reboot. After it reboots enjoy the smoothest hero ever!!

THANKS! Love the immediate response! Will re-partition it later today and let you kno how it went. Also it made it pass the boot image, just couldn't see anything but the status bar and lock screen. When unlocked it would only show HERO on the screen. But I'll see if this works. Thanks again!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanmartindj:
The hero screen shouldn't take too long, the HTC screen is where the long wait is. I personally just press menu or move the trackball when the screen dims a little to keep the phone awake. I think it takes longer if you let the phone sleep (just personal perception, no real proof). You will see the status bar appear and then disappear while on the HTC screen before setup starts.

Good luck!

500 meg for ext3

7.2gig for fat32.

copied my rom.zip file to fat32, booted into recovery1.4, selected wipe then repair filesystem.

then appled my rom.zip. it took about 10 minutes to boot up to setup screen.

hope this helps

just wanted to let everyone know that everything is working very well with this rom.

this is easily the best/fastest/stable HERO rom i've ever tried (i believe i tried all of them).

in response to some of the questions, i find it easiest to partition my sd card using the adb shell commands

i used 96 mb linux swap and 40 swappiness (recommended by the second post) and i have yet to see the HTC loading screen. runs buttery smooth :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eatabagel:
^^ Do you have a Dream or a Sapphire?

I find that (at least on the 2.0 build) when you run the magic script to turn on wifi, orientation etc. on Magic, something breaks in the swapping or compcache.

At least on my 32B Sapphire, this is what is happening. So the compromise is speediest build there is vs. wifi/orientation.

I wonder if other people can corroborate me that 32B installations of 1.8 or 2.0 get broken compcache or linux swap if Magic script is run.
