... I wanted to write an application that changes optical joystick behaviour for different applications, for ex. when writting SMS I would like to disable Joystick, and when in Opera, i want to use it as scroll... then in Resco Explorer slower reaction then possible to set with default Settings program... etc....

... and no Idea how to start controlling these things... there is no api, no wrapper, no anything to control optical joystick ... for ex for diamond's / touch pro's d-pad or G sensors ... had their wrapperers / SDKs written by: Koushik Dutta...

maybe You Guys know anything...

I'm trying to figure out how to write an app that uses HTC API's. Specifically I want my app to switch scenes but I can't figure out how to call in to their libraries.

I unzipped Rosie.apk and it is only resources, no java.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maxisma:
it's the classes.dex
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
Right but how do I import something from a dex in eclipse and build it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maxisma:
no way.

.dex is compiled, not source.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
does java have a way to forward-declare classes so I can tell java they'll be there when it tries to run? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vd3:
I haven't done much (read: any) actual development on Android yet, as I just got my Hero recently (developing solely on an emulator? ewww), but isn't the typical way of interacting with other applications on Android through Intents and Actions?

Browsing through the AndroidManifest.xml file in Rosie.apk, there seems to be a reference to com.htc.launcher.ThemeChooser.action.theme_change - Maybe this would be a place to start?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
Ah yes, I'm still in the mindset of calling other peoples interfaces to do things. Thanks for the tip.

trying to figure out what to do with it will be fun, I'm sure :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
So com.htc.launcher.ThemeChooser.action.theme_change launches the chooser. I need to be able to change the scene under the covers by telling it what theme to switch to, any one have any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vd3:
Glad to see that you made a little bit of progress :) I did some more searching, but this time in Rosie.odex. I found an ACTION_THEME_CHANGE string. Perhaps it could be something like this:

Component Name: com.htc.launcher.ThemeChooser.action.theme_change

Action: ACTION_THEME_CHANGE

Data: ?

Like I mentioned, I'm new to this stuff :) I'm not sure if there is a way to log or monitor intents (that would sure make this easy, wouldn't it?).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
After looking at this more I think I need to hook into the htc settings content provider and see if I can change the settings like that. I found this in the manifest.xml:

E: provider (line=191)

A: android:name(0x01010003)="LauncherProvider" (Raw: "LauncherProvider")

A: android:readPermission(0x01010007)="com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS" (Raw: "com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS")

A: android:writePermission(0x01010008)="com.htc.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS" (Raw: "com.htc.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS")

A: android:authorities(0x01010018)="com.htc.launcher.settings" (Raw: "com.htc.launcher.settings")

so according to http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html it looks like the Uri should be:

Uri u = Uri.parse("content://com.htc.launcher.settings");

except when I try that I get an exception saying that is an invalid URI :\
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vd3:
I'm not sure that it would be a setting. I mean, I'm sure you could find an attribute to set, but I don't think the switch would be instantaneous (likely requiring a reboot to show), unless there is something listening for changes to the settings. I could be wrong, of course.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
Figured it out:

final Uri u = Uri.parse("content://com.htc.launcher.settings/widget_workspaces");

And the resulting table has

_id, display_name, created, status, and ancestor_id

So I think I can change status and then figure out how to throw a notify
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
I guess you were right, it looks like the widget_workspaces table has all the scenes available but the status field doesn't do what I assumed it would, rather it looks like it indicates whether a scene was shipped by HTC, is your saved scene or is unsaved.

I was really hoping this would do it because I don't know where to look now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vd3:
Well, looking at the ddms, it seems like I am wrong. It looks like ThemeChooser activity will do the swapping itself after you have selected a different scene. So it doesn't look like you will be able to make use of HTC's packages to do the swapping for you. Unfortunately, the only thing I can think that you could do next, is figure out how it is storing the scenes and load it and call all of the loading functions yourself...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
Well, I have no way of calling their loading functions so I guess I'm out of luck :X
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
Check out smali and baksmali to snoop around in the classes.dex.

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manicmethod:
I used ddx1.7 to snoop in the dex files and found the tables and everything they were storing settings in. Unfortunately it looks like they neither store the current active scene in the table nor have an intent to call that will switch it without popping up the dialog.

It looks like what I want to do isn't possible. :(

Hello.

Got a wings, and I want to switch it to german language. If I download the Rom from HTC and use my Imei number, I only get a danish ROM. Don' t do very well in danish. :-(

[Dash 3G, Snap General] j4m3z420:
Hi.

I was curious if anyone knows a way to re-map the internet browser shortcut key that is on the bottom right of the Sprint HTC Snap. I would like to have it open Skyfire instead of IE. Skyfire is set as my default browser but the button still opens IE. Also, do the same thing with the Mycircle key but change it to open Task Manager.

Thanks.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] ookba:
The file is in \Windows and it's called short_circle.lnk. Just make a new .lnk and call it short_circle.lnk and copy it to \Windows overwriting the old one.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] webworker01:
Hi I got the Inner Circle key remapped using both short_circle.lnk and long_circle.lnk.

I am still having trouble getting the internet key to remap to Skyfire. I have tried making PIE.lnk, short_IE.lnk, long_IE.lnk, short_PIE.lnk, long_PIE.lnk. None of these seems to do the trick. Any ideas?
[Dash 3G, Snap General] ookba:
That key may be hardware coded into the keyboard driver. Not sure.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] c.radi:
Hello,

i have an German Model of the Snap.

And i don´t Use Inner Circle. So the TaskManager will be the best Applikation on this Button.

But it don´t work.

I Edit the Files

- InnerCircle.lnk

- Short_Circle.lnk

and Change ist to the TaskMgr.exe.

I Restart my Phone, but the Button always Call the InnerCircle Funktion.

What is my mistake?

Greatings

Christian
[Dash 3G, Snap General] macmanu:
Christian, instead of editing the Short_circle.lnk file directly, try as follows:

1. Copy the TaskManager.lnk file from your Windows/Start Menu to another folder (i.e /Storage Card)

2. go in /Storage Card and rename TaskManager.lnk as Short_Circle.lnk

3. Copy this file into /Windows

This should work..at least it did for myself.

[Dash 3G, Snap General] c.radi:
Hello,

thanks for your reply, but it doesn´t works.

The InnerCircle Key always start the Inner Circle Applikation.

Greetings

Christian
[Dash 3G, Snap General] mag786fd:
1) use total commander or the likes,

2) change the read-only attribute on the short_circle.lnk.

3) then replace the shortcut with whatever application you'd like to run and save it as short_circle.lnk.

[Dash 3G, Snap General] Jalom:
Hi there,

Do you have more info on that ? I have a S521 (Frenchy ass, fruity ass), and the so-called internet key is for Live Mess-enger. I would be really interested in mapping a different function to that key.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] lojza_:
Hi,

is it possible to re-mapping also key dedicated for Live Messenger? I try it in the same way, like for Inner Circle (which work correctly), but without effect.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] hawker180:
I know this reply is late, but for anyone still playing around with HTC SNAPs:

Yep I managed this one:

do the same for \Windows\Start Menu\Messaging.lnk

I Used Total Commander, edited Short_Circle.lnk to be non read only

Found the shortcut i wanted to use, edited the file and copied the shortcut link (do a select all), then edit Short_Circle.lnk, remove the old shortcut path and select all and then paste. Enjoy your Custom single Button shortcut key

I have Telstra Branded Snaps, and i had to remove the security off the phones before i could untick the read only attribute on the Short_Circle.lnk shortcut.

To remove the security:

Install "Clear Security.cab"

Install and Launch Microsoft’s Security Configuration Manager on your PC

Select Security Off from the drop down menu and click the Provision button, the program will install a file called Tool.cab on the mobile device.

MS Security Configuration Manager available here:

I posted my problem in the Kaiser general forum but as I've had no replies and I also believe that the problem is generic (not kaiser specific) I thought to post where more people might see and hopefully recognise this problem.

I'd appreciate any help in figuring this one out. In PC terms I'd suspect a software driver problem for something like this but to me I can only think of some kind of hardware problem (I've eliminated software issues by Hard reset), unless there is some reason why the behaviour should cause these symptoms.

In the hope someone will have encountered something similar ...

Hi:

Please apologize my ignorance, but I just got a MT3G from T-Mobile a week ago and am trying to root and be able to load Hero or Cyn Rom. I see there are many many ways to root here and at the unlocker website. I am lost! Which way should I go?? one click or the gold card? Please correct me but my understanding is that if I go goldcard way I can load all ROMs including Hero and if I go the one click way all I can load is Cyanogen?? Also how do I back up.. I am lost with the whole nandroid thing.. do i do this before anything? if so I did not see any guide for that ... please once again sorry to be sounding so late and stupid but any help would be very appreciated.. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jrbourque:
use 1 click
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djrobe07:
I used 1 click. Took about 5 minutes to root compared to the days of research I had to do in order to root my G1 when I first got it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djrobe07:
Also, 1 click will allow you to load flash any rom. I used 1 click and am using blueberry_Full_V.07_steel
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] adept777:
Thanks a bunch guys!! so will it be accurate to sum up that there really is no advantage to doing it the gold card way?? once again thanks!! and also if someone can throw some light on backing up.. is it done before?? if so how and using what??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jrbourque:
gold card way was used before the 1 click was figured out. So to root the phone initially we had to use gold card to get it done.

This thread has moved HERE

Update: 18th 10 2009 22:58UK added 4.0.4 and 4.1.999 versions.

I know this is for an older version of cyanogen's ROM but this is still the version I'm running, this theme is for Cyanogen ROM 4.1.11.1, the last release before it all got 'interesting'.

I've called this 'MarksTheme' because I'm Mark, and I made most of this theme.

I say 'most' because I took some from Enoch and EnochX, some from m_blend (loving the red), and added a load of my own Icons.

The wallpaper you see in the screenshots isn't included, it's one of my photographs (I do that kind of photography for a living).

Credits to the makers of both, particularly Enoch and EnochX which got me started :)

I will update this to whatever version of cyanogen ROM I happen to be using, if you want to use it with another version you can strip the icons out of the zip file and put them into a template or another theme made for another version of the ROM.

I will also tweak and play with this version whenever the mood takes me and time allows.

This theme uses the standard launcher with 5 screens, I found the advanced launcher still a bit laggy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Download this theme for cyanogen 4.1.11.1 (maintained).

Download this theme for cyanogen 4.0.4 (ported).

Download this theme for cyanogen 4.1.999 (ported).

tilt 2 default browser

It seems like this should be possible from the registry somewhere. But not everyone want so mess with the registry, or they don't have time to mess with other apps. The 'easiest' way I've found to do it is to launch IE, go to the options menu and tell it to ask if it's the default browser upon launch. Close IE, re-launch and make it the default browser. I had the same problem with an app working waaaay better with IE over Opera.

I did an Hard SPL, nothing happened.

After that i tried to boot into bootloader, everything was fine, i saw the three color screen and i started to install a new clean copy of the WM 6.5..

Everything was fine, it went to 100%, but when it was at 100% the device shutdowns.

When i tried to start it again i got into the three color screen again, and after about 7 seconds it restarts, and it starts in the three color screen...
