Any chance of a donut build?? I would use it once it`s fooled around with!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] st0kes:
Nice one maxisma! :)

Looks like the right direction to be heading at this point in time.

You mentioned your next release will be cyanogenmod w/o googleapps. Cyanogen has said he is working on this and it will become his 4.2 release. Could your next release be the stock ASOP but with the Cyan 4.1.7 kernel (BFS) and the 106Mb memory patch for 32B? :D

I don't ask much I know.

Is there any advantage to having a magnetic stylus for touch diamond 2?

As far as I can gather the phone has resistive, not capacitive screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] JoOoSs:
Many apps use the magnetic function to do some things.

(S2U2 can automatically unlock the phone when the style is pulled out)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] F Murtz:
Thanks,The stylus in my phone activates the phone when I remove it but it is not magnetic.

But I want to get some spares in case I lose it And I have the option to get magnetic.

I don't know If there would be any advantage or problems if I do.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cloudedhopes:
no difference - i would say go for default ones (for td2, un-magnetic)

ps. capacitative & resistive screen has nothing to do with stylus :)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] teknologist:
I guess post title says it all..

Whenever I start a phone call, the screen goes off...it is very annoying.

Any way to stop that behavior ?

I have searched this forums with no luck.

I am running Modaco's 2.3 ROM on an unbranded hero.

I have tried using Powermanager tools to define a 2min timeout in the "screen off during call" feature but with no luck.

thanks for the help!

Cheers,

[Hero, G2 Touch General] fleming222:
There is an app called shake awake which wakes up the screen during a call when you move it away from your face.

http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.maplekeycompany.apps.shake
[Hero, G2 Touch General] teknologist:
Thanks. i'll give a try but the bad reviews are scaring me.

Is there a setting anywhere for that screen turning off while on call ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] commodoor:
i didn't liked "shake awake" the calls got dropped when the phone "shaked" sometimes i had to call the same person 3 or 4 times because the call ended. first i thought it was my phone but the problems started after installing shake awake. after i removed it my phone worked again :P
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Heppieboeddah:
Keepscreen does the trick. Works absolutly great. The full version is able to keep the screen on with every application. Very handy when reading mail, browsing etc. You must set youre screenout delay in settings from the phone to 30sec.

http://nl.androlib.com/r.aspx?r=keepscreen
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
I'd like an app that actually does kill the screen as soon as the call button is pressed. Sometimes the Hero is too slow to turn off the screen and you hang up the call with your cheek.

Thats annoying.

hello,

it is possible to change imei of my htc hero?

for the reason that I can use in Turkey!

it blocks the IMEI htc hero.

*I would put the imei of my nokia n95 that works in Turkey ..

Thank you
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBrit:
Normally one would say that the only reason someone would want to change an IMEI was if the phone was stolen. Turkey is a special case though because of the really STUPID LAW about foreign bought phones that exists there.

IMEIs can't usually be changed because that would be the one way to change the identity os a stolen handset.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boolat:
stupid you said...

I just learned that it is possible to have a network ...

the only thing to do is to have a Turkish passport, registered the imei for the phone ...

So if not for me: (

I can use my htc hero with a Turkish operator: (

really boring like operation, but it's true that it is a good system that Europe should use...

3 months without his hero htc annoys me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commodoor:
I thought it could also be done with other passports and not only a Turkish passport. if you come in turkey you get a stamp on your passport, on that stamp there is a date. with that date you can unblock youre IMEI number. there is no other way to do that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBrit:
But why are they blocking foriegn IMEIs in the first place? :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cokbok:
Not only blocking "foreign" phones but blocking any phone having an IMEI that is not registered by any distributors/importers. This is because too many people started doing it as a job, buying cheap phones, bringing them to Turkey illegally and selling them without paying any tax, vat, etc. What the telecommunication authorities doing is right. What is wrong is that they let you register one phone every 2 years.

However, I recently learned that, if you registered a phone somehow and bought another phone in the meanwhile, you can just "unregister" the old one and register the new one. This works for me.

On the other hand, I am not sure if it would work with a foreign passport but either it does or not, you will have to have your "bill" (any official paper stating that this phone belongs to you). Otherwise you don't have a chance even if you have a Turkish passport.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cokbok:
Also,

Should you go to Turkey for a vacation or something, your phone would not be blocked for the 1st month. This is for tourism reasons. Otherwise any foreigner visiting Turkey would have this problem. I think it is a month per year. So, if you go to Turkey again next year, you should again have 1 month, if I am not wrong. But I am 100% sure about the first entrance with a new phone. You can, no doubt, use it for the 1st month.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikiforos:
I'm not sure if I get this right but this implies that a tourist's phone would be blocked after 1 month. Which is not the case as far as I know. Yes it will be blocked but only to Turkish operators. A visitor would still be able to roam with his/her phone after one month.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikiforos:
I registered my Hero just this morning. This might help you.

You don't have to have a Turkish passport. You need your passport (from any country) stamped by a customs officer WITHIN last 30 days. Then you can go to an operator and ask them to register your phone for you.

If you are not a Turkish citizen you will need to bring your residence permit as well otherwise your phone will be registered but it will work only with your number. (Though they won't ask for a permit.. You should tell this yourself otherwise they will go ahead and register the phone to your mobile number)

Hope this helps..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cokbok:
Well, I have a locked phone because I visited Turkey for 2 days, 2 months ago. Now I cannot use it there anymore and because I registered another phone last year, I cannot register this one. I did not try with my foreign SIM as I am not a fan of roaming because of the prices.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boolat:
I have the same problem!

How to restore imei

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chuzinat0r:
hi there!

im using a hero with mc 2.3 and FU_6.35.07.08 radiofirmware.

everytime I'm talking to someone, he keeps telling me to speak louder.

no matter how good the signal strenth is or to whom i speak!

I've already tried several radios, just in hope to be able to handle it.

the only solution is to hold the microphone straight to my mouth (its on the downside)

but thats still not the all in all solution..

is there anything like a microphone boost?

or at least can anybody tell me its just a bug or something?

i just hope its not due to the construction.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lcw622:
did u used the Volume Boost app from the market ?(forgot the name....removed asap...)

I used this is had that problem...

and backup didn't help..

ended up had to wipe and re-flash...

thank you for your help!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Thiesen:
When I hold my Hero in my left hand up to the ear my little finger (pinky) always cover the little microphone hole so the sound can't reach the microphone. Those who I speak with tells me to speak louder because of this.

Otherwise I get good reports of the clarity of how I sound
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Sebastian768:
Actually, after the latest official ROM upgrade, people have been telling me to speak up, that they can't hear me properly or that it sounds like I have a sweater over the mic or that I'm in a tin can.

I was about to send it in, perhaps I've dropped it or something. But it apparently not just me who has this problem,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adam.lamb3rt:
Yeh Im also having the same problem. I have the MC 2.3 ROM but did use the volume hack program also. Do you think this has something to do with it?? Does anyone know of any way to increase the volume of the phone without screwing up the microphone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] qoios:
hi guys, im having this problem too but only since like yesterday i think! im sure its something to do with the modaco rom as if i go back to default everything seems fine.

Any ideas? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] YB53:
Confused

Hi,

Sorry about the maybe obvious quiestions but I am quite new to this!

I bought an apparently new unlocked HTC Hero from eBay recently (which I now realise might have been a big mistake!)

On "About Phone" section of the phone it says I have firmware version 1.5 and "Build Number": "MoDaCo Custom Rom 2.3 Core".

I am now realising that this phone is probably not as new as advertised and has not come with the original software.

Anyway everything else seems to work perfectly with this phone apart from the same microphone problems as other people have described, so I was hoping that someone could explain to me what has been done to the phone and any suggestions on how to fix it or return it to its default state!

Im sorry, for the simple questions but as I say I am new to Android and would like a phone that I can make phonecalls with!

Thanks for any help you can give me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tibor Gáts:
Solution

I think it can be solved by replacing the following files with the original ones:

/etc/AudioFilter.csv

/etc/AudioPara4.csv

/etc/AudioPreProcess.csv

Of course you have to be root to be able to replace these files...

Note: I have not tried the above yet, but these files contain low level audio settings, so there is a good chance changing it can help you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] YB53:
Thanks for the response.

However being completely new to this I am still a bit unclear.

How do I access these files on my phone and where do I find the original ones?

I am pretty sure it has been rooted - although not sure how I check - it definately has a custom rom installed on it though
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tibor Gáts:
You can download for example the MoDaCo ROM: http://content.modaco.net/hero/2.3-update-hero-modacocustomrom-core-signed.zip

In this .zip file you will find the mentioned files in the /system/etc/ sub-directory.

Simply copy them to your MicroSDHC card, than in the phone use a file browser (like this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=530271 ) to copy them from the card to the phone's file system (into /etc/ ). After this you only need to reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nolimit966:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joners:
With the recent events that have surrounded the c & d issued to Cyanogen, I like a lot of users here (i imagine) have been reading the posts surrounding all of it. Im just wondering if someone could clear something up for me.

Is the market part of Android?

The fact that the market place is closed source and an application would leave me to think that its not.

When you read lines like this on their home page.

"Browse or publish your own applications on the refreshed Android Market."

I see that they have closed off the other closed source apps, like gmail, maps etc however the way that the market is touted is what confuses me!

would appreciate any thoughts that anyone has.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fingerlickin:
The Market is NOT a part of Android. It's just where all the devs post their apps because that's where the largest user base (stock phones) download apps.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joners:
Hey,

Thanks for clearing that up for me!

So im guessing that if i then went and got the aosp source and compiled it myself there would be no restricted apps/market in it, like gmail etc.

Sorry never done it myself (and wouldnt know how to!) Which is why im asking.

Thanks again for your feedback.

Jon
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
No, If you complied Android from the AOSP code, you would be left with a vanilla ROM without the closed source apps, there would be no market app at all.

EDIT: Sorry, that's what you were trying to say, my bad.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joners:
thanks thats exactly what i wanted to know!

cheers,

Hello.

I have a HTC Magic with a mod of the Rogers ROM. In "/system/app" I can see a "HTCAlbum.apk" but it doesn't work like the Windows Mobile version at all.

In my HTC Touch 3G I can zoom in and out by "drawing" a circle clockwise or counter-clockwise, and I can rotate images by "drawing" an arc in the direction of rotation.

Do you know of any Android app that works that way? I cannot understand why HTC dropped a good touch support in this HTC Album for Android. :mad:

So, last two nights my phone has done this. I leave it charging all night, then get up, and check my messages or something, and the phone will freeze up, or won't be able to send a text. so I push reset (xda shutdown also doesnt work...) or pull the battery and it hard resets...

Actually, I'm not even sure if this is a hard reset. Not only does it delete everything including my contacts, it has to reinstall the whole rom, "windows is now preparing your device for first use" and so on...

The day this happened, I was eating Gyros, and I spilled some of the sauce down my side, and into my pocket, and some got on the phone, and into the charger socket. The thing is though, it still charges fine. So I'm not sure if anything bad actually happened...

think this is a hardware or software problem?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
I would make sure that everything is clean and dry and all buttons are free and unstuck ( canned air ) Then reflash the rom , followed by a hard reset.

If the problem persists, it is probably not a software problem
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Superman22x:
By now anything is dry, and the buttons all apear to be good. So, I am reinstalling and hardreseting.

I guess, on the bright side, if my phone is borken, it's a good exuse to by a G1 right?? lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] scousemartin:
even if it is dry i would use some kind of cleaning fluid on the mini usb connector, obviously ensure the battery is out of the phone and then leave it to dry for a day, as the sauce may still be making a connection across the power circuit, which is why it is most likely hard resetting when it powers off on charge.

Have you tried setting the phone to not switch off while it is on charge overnight? if you wake in the morning and its still working then thats the problem, its short circuiting on the power due to the sauce making a connection
