[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Auzman:
Thank you for the suggestion, Tomal!

I partially did it.

When I'm driving in my car, I put the screen in landscape because of the cradle and I need the device to stay in landscape mode only in this case.

So I put in SPB Mobile Shell today a link to a script (using a renamed autorun.exe to make it appear in the programs list) that switches between landscape and portrait and writes on a file the status.

Then I added a link in the notifications list using DF's task manager to another script that reads the previous state from the file and flips the screen to landscape only if the file says that the device was in landscape.

Unfortunately WM6 seems to override the script and the screen barely returns to portrait on wake up.

I partially fixed it adding in the "notificated" script a 6 seconds wait time.

Doing this the screen rotate to portrait for a little time then returns, as it was supposed to, to landscape.

I need some more tests to ensure that the wait time doesn't create conflicts with other functions like phone or reminders.

One first upgrade would be to find a way to write on the file the screen status when the device goes to sleep, but I don't know how to do it.

The second, and most important, upgrade would be to understand why WM overrides the rotate function.

Another thought: I made a script that writes on a file the screen status on woke up. If I turn off the device while in portrait mode and I turn it back on, the script writes in the file that the screen is in portrait mode. Seems that when the notification starts the script reads the status wanted by Windows even if the screen appears in landscape for few seconds, then it rotates.

According to this, I supposed that the seconds needed to rotate weren't influent and Windows thought to be in portrait mode. But the other script won't work without a 6 seconds delay...

Any idea?

Sorry for the lenght... :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] tomal:
You do not need to write on file, just write on registry.

Create a new reg key and add/remove all your values are there. It's the most reliable way.

just my two cents. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] -Jonny-:
Auzman, don't know if you have found your solution. I was dwelling on iGo (NavNGo), that it sticks to landscape (when set, and I turn off/on Uni). However I think it's sneaky in that it isn't real landscape, but actually changes its images to suit the orientation you choose (in iGo) and totally ignores the PPC's (WM/Uni) orientation. But hey, it does mean I was still thinking of you ;) ha!

I'd like to add some customize sounds for the notification event stuff; I tried to put the .wav inside Documents and Settings; or inside the Windows folder; but it doesn't work; does it only accept wma?

If that's the case; could you recommend a tool to convert to wma? I've been playing with couple of them; they all corrupt the output files...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Mad Majk:
I have the exact same problem.

EDIT: Problem solved. You need to copy the sound in WMA or MP3 format into the Windows folder on Your device. Works for me.

and i'm getting 2 errors...

'cpio' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file (i figure this is because i'm on windows... haven't found a solution for this yet but i'm sure i can get cpio for windows somewhere)

and 'mkbootimg-H' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

would love help in any way... as i've said i'm running windows 7 with strawberry perl installed...

*edit* if this helps i'm trying to put together a rom that has hofo kernel v2 on top of jacheroski 2.1
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
I don't think you can repack ROM's in Windows. You can get VirtualBox and install a Linux distro using it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Phil_McRevis:
damn lol i did my best to make it work... virtualbox here i come!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Install Linux Mint in virtualbox, as it has most of the things you need out of the box.

www.linuxmint.com

Download the port tools:

http://www.4shared.com/file/122118622/fd190fe1/PortTools.html

Download the Linux Android SDK.

Go into your home folder and type this in:

Add this line at the end:

Copy all of the port tools in your tools directory, except the sign app.

Right-click on them and make them executable.

Repack and unpack as you please.

When you sign them, you have to copy the three signing files in the directory with the zip.

That's the most of it.

PS-VirtualBox is a bit lacking when on a Windows 7 host. Your USB devices might not be seen, and folder sharing is very difficult to set-up. So you'll most likely have to do all of your work on the Linux guest, upload it, and then download it on your Windows host.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
mkbootimg-H is a linux binary, it will not run on Window$ :)

Just install Ubuntu using wubi instead of a virtualbox.

Wubi allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu as any other Windows application. This is a much easier approach as a slow virtualbox.

Im actually not sure if its from donut, anyone know?

Im talking about the 4x1 widget included in cyanogen's builds with all of the settings to toggle, can it be taken from his builds and installed with an app installer onto an unrooted mytouch?

i like the look of it and from what i understand it includes a one-click gps toggle...thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] n1ck75:
the widget is called

'power control'

As to the question, i'm not sure about if it can be taken
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DMaverick50:
fair enough, thanks for the response. At least maybe my xda/google search attempts will be more effective using the actual name of it...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sharky34:
It might be from donuts.

If youy DL SDk 1.6 you will find this widget in the emulator.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] maxisma:
The Widget is in the Settings.apk.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DMaverick50:
thanks maxisma. sorry i have to ask this because im sure the answer is obvious to most, but it said 'settings app cannot be installed on this phone..." Is there anything else i need to install to get it to work? As when I installed pdf onto my g1 there were 2 other files i had to install through the emulator, which, since my mytouch is not rooted I dont think would be possible.

Any suggestions would be great, thanks

by the way i used settings.apk from cyanogen 4.0.2, its the last one i downloaded...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sambo1981:
I think I remember reading that it was from/for Donut. I never found it in the market though.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nwdst:
Hello everyone,

I have a problem with my Fuze when I try mapping a specific key in a program and it doesn't sense the proper key that I pressed. I noticed this in a couple of programs (not just games) so I downloaded a bunch of games just to test this out. In almost all games, I noticed that the arrow keys and some of the special keys are mappable, but all the alphabet keys are not. No matter which one I choose, none of the game or programs recognize the difference in keys. They either don't see em or give them the same Key ID.

Worse yet, the mappable special keys still launch programs in the background killing whatever I am doing. This is infinitely annoying. I did not flash a custom ROM. I am using the latest HTC FUZE rom from their website. The only thing I did different was I soft reset during ROM loading to kill the bloatware. Everything else runs correctly. It's not a hardware problem; all my text are fine; no issues with the FUZE seeing the different key strokes. I have no issues texting. It definitely seems like the Fuze keeps the same key ID for all of the same types of keys allowing them not to be mapped.

Is this a problem with the ROM (HTC May 2009)? Would using NRG latest ROM fix this? Should I go back to AT&T's latest ROM (AT&T April 2009 I think)? Please anyone that knows about this please let me know if you are experiencing this and how to fix. Thank you.

I am sorry if this is not the right place or if I am not posting in the right section, but I searched this forum/internet for hours and I am totally out of ideas. I downloaded a couple of programs, but they only changed the layout to flash non-Fuze ROMS etc. This is one of my first posts, so I apologize. This site is awesome.

Thanks,

nwdst

More info

I have looked into the wiki a bit before, but I dove back in so I can't be blamed for not reading it. I noticed the following two under tips:

#1

Keyboard Patch (For users with an AT&T Fuze)

File Can be found Here

#2

Start Menu and OK Buttons on the H/W Keyboard

If you would like to add custom keys (including Start and OK buttons) see here for customizing the Touch Pro Keyboard: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=424905 (Post #7 and #12)

For #1, what does the patch do? When I click on it it gives me the cab; but I don't know anything more about. What is the "Patch"?

For #2, I understand that you can map the the OK and start keys, but do I need to remap every key on the board? I still want the keys to do what they do just not when I run a certain program. Can a program do this for me?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Bruce Inman:
1. The patch fixes a non AT&T TouchPro keyboard to function on an AT&T Fuze as they have different mappings.

2. Hardware keys can be mapped but not for specific functions within specific programs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nwdst:
Thanks

Ok. I will not install the patch.

I understand that you can remap keys but I still don't understand why the key ID under most programs still remains the same for all alpha characters on my keyboard. Is this the same case for anyone with a cooked or At&t rom? I have latest HTC Rom.

Hi!

Just got an HTC Magic that was locked on Vodafone Spain. The phone is great, but I seem to have a problem, I can use it as a USB mass storage device.

When I plug it to the computer using the USB cable that came with the phone, the USB notification doesn't shows up, so I can't use the mass storage...

The microSD card has 8GB of capacity and it seems to be ok, at least I can take pictures and saved to the card...

Have you create the needed udev configuration for your HTC?

In order to mount correctly a HTC Magic you have to the following udev configuration file.

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules

And paste the two following lines. Do not forget to change USERNAME with your Ubuntu username

SUBSYSTEM=="usb",SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4",ATTR{idProduct}=="0c02",SYMLINK+="android_adb",MODE="0666",OWNER="USERNAME"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4",ATTR{idProduct}=="0c01",SYMLINK+="android_fastboot",MODE="0666",OWNER="USERNAME"

After that you have to either reload the udev configuration or restart udev. To be sure restart udev.

sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart

I hope this will help youto resolve your case

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] crankygeek:
@skhell

I don't know where you would find it for a 32A, but assuming you did not change your SPL you can use Fastboot to completely flash a stock config (system, recovery, boot, data, etc)

For instance, Cyanogen's instructions have you fastboot a SAPPIMG.nbh for 32B devices, I am assuming such an image exists for 32a devices as well...

If you can completely re-flash the entire system your warranty claim should be fine.

Hi - Can someone please help me! I have tried to do the hard reset using the three buttons and its not working. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The Touch Flo 3-D is stuffed and because touching the screen wont work I cant disable it grrrrr. You can't press any buttons on the screen.

There is a limited amount that you can do with the physical keyboard (up down keys etc) but not enough to enable hard reset.

Have managed to get to the Clear Storage page - but as the Touch Flo isn't working - we cant get the Yes to work to finalise the hard reset

We can't get to Today screen to turn Touch Flo 3-D off either.

I can copy files across using ActiveSync to the phone - but am unable to execute anything as no ability to touch the screen (and the TP2 is missing the two physical buttons that the Tytn II had - god I am missing them sorely now).

Does anyone have any suggestions please - I am desperate for help. I Can't do much at all..
