CarComm has an active and a passive one available.
[Touch2 Accessories] drjv:
carcom vs brodit

so, the products are available.

i#m wondering about the hight space between the htc back and the holder by brodit.

the carcomm holder looks smaller.

what do you think?

and: the price difference between active and passive holder is 40€, lol. i think a car-usb-adapter for a few bugs is the better way ...
[Touch2 Accessories] czdjj:
you're right, i ordered passive brodit for 21€, but it comes in 3 weeks.

currently have the Brodit Passive holder with my HR Richter swivel, with all the Brodit holders I've been quite happy.

Looks decent and fits smoothly, it's worth getting it

Hi,

I replaced a not powered on main board with one that has sign of water damaged (although I'm not sure), everything seems to work fine after except the touchscreen. So I want to ask if anyone might know any fix for it? Could it be some incompatibility issue between the board and the screen?

I'm now stuck at the Android "Touch the Android to set up" screen where I can't do anything without touchscreen... Any keyboard might let me get through it?

Many thanks

This rootfs.img is based on vilord's latest rootfs.img. I basically replaced the tiwlan.ini inside the rootfs.img with a functional one for my kaiser and it's working great for me. If you can't boot with this rootfs.img, please let me know coz vilord just updates his rootfs again due to non boot on a non-partioned SD card (I didn't have an issue even though I only had one partition on my SD). Here is the link and I hope it helps users with intermittent wifi issues (meaning they can connect but browsing is a hit or miss, but more miss).

Now if you just want the tiwlan.ini and want to update your own rootfs.img, here is the link

Hello all, sorry for being a noob. I have a small problem with rooting my G1. I bought my G1 from the states. I then got the unlock code. Then i moved to germany where i live now. I began to root my phone and then Got lost when you have to re-register in google to sync your data. I began to do that but then my phone said (cannot connect to google servers)..well..im in germany! so i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. again, sorry for a noob question. thanks all!

Something is eating my internal memory. I'm aware of the BT issue, but I don't use BT... it has to be something else. Any pointers on how to track this down?
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
What do you mean by "eating"?

Apps and app data use internal memory.
[Hero CDMA General] herzzreh:
Yeah. but not at 5mb/day when I don't install anything.
[Hero CDMA General] redram38:
I have also seen this. For example. I was up to 115 meg now I am at 100 meg with the same apps installed. I do use BT but I also know when I need to flush out the core files so that is not the issue. What I have noticed is when I use the browser or set up my email account is when I see the drop. I have gone to apps and deleted cache but have also learned when I do that on Mail, Browser and contacts I lose all my contacts, mail settings and bookmarks. I cannot believe those would eat up 10 meg of space. If I keep using these programs will my internal memory keep getting lower and lower. I also just started using peep yesterday, and that is when it dropped from about 105 to 100.
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
You can empty the browser cache by going into Settings in the Browser and hitting "Clear cache."
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
Go into Applications in the Settings menu. Go to all the apps you use, and hit "Clear data" :) Problem solved.
[Hero CDMA General] pitmanr2003:
someone should make a app that does this automaticly if there isnt one yet.
[Hero CDMA General] dcdave63:
I had this same problem. I went back to Best Buy and got a new replacement. The new phone even had the EVDO Rev A, instead of the Rev 0, and the new one has "with Google" on the back.

I have read that there were a large bad batch of these phones, and that there were issues with them.

I also read that there are also other issues involving SMS/Text and Bluetooth that may or not be related to this.

If you can, go to where you bought it and get a replacement, if at all possible.

Just my thoughts!
[Hero CDMA General] redram38:
The phone I have does have Rev 1 and with google on the back so I don't think that is my issue. I also have no dust problem. I just see the memory drop daily and unless I go and clear cache daily it won't come back. This should not be nec IMO. There is not much left on the phone with nothing installed and seems to me using APP2SD we should not ever fall below 115-110. My wifes Moment has the same apps and she has about 220 left on hers
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
So, I'm messing about with building android from the source, just as a learning process and for my own personal satisfaction at this point.

I've come most of the way under my own steam.. got a build up and running from the donut-plus-aosp branch, all google apps included and working.. but I don't actually know how to include root access in the build.. :eek: I know this is probably an embarrasingly simple question for a dev, and I feel suitably stupid for having to ask.

Also.. now you're here.. ;) apps2sd.. do I need to compile anything special for that or is it just a bunch of symlinks in init.rc?

Muchos gracias.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
I believe the root access is located in the kernel (boot.img)

You would also want to include the SU binaries and busybox.

For the apps2sd, the apps2sd script is run from the init.rc IIRC

Do not hold me up on this because I have not even looked at Android yet, but this is what I gather from reading the forums. I'm hoping it may give you a little direction while someone who has actually built from the source steps in
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
Thanks. :cool: I've already included the su binary and superuser apk but couldn't launch them, so I thought I must be missing something either in the kernel or init.rc.

I was hoping not to have to build the kernel manually just yet.. walk before you can fly and all that, but maybe it's time to grow some wings.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
You should just compile cyanogen's kernel. he has it on his github. btw.. did you add busybox? i think apps2sd requires it but im not sure.(check logcat on startup, see what errors its throwing)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
I've just added busybox in, but I can't do anything with apps2sd until I get root sorted.

I'm sticking with the 2.6.29-donut kernel for now.. cyan's includes loads of patches that I don't understand yet.. I'll compile it and see what happens purely as an experiment but I reckon it'll give me problems...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
Just looking at the configuration options for cyan's kernel makes me feel like a dad trying to program a vcr :(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
This post was infected with retardation. Please ignore.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
LOL

btw if your building from ASOP, it should already have root. I think you only need to add it to T-mobile OTA's

I know I hate looking at kernels. Liquefies my mind
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
It's not working for me.. :confused: I just get "permission denied"
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
Well I've got root by running chmod 4777 on /bin/sh, but this leaves root access wide open to everything and bypasses the confirmation check from superuser.apk... Come on devs, I could really do with a few tips here!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
I think I've got it now... thanks to all the devs, you were a real help here. :rolleyes:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
XD

i know, they are so helpful right?

Actually they never come by here anymore because of the supernoob questions

I suggest you try to pm,twitter, or website the devs. many of them are very helpful, but cannot stand noobs. as long as you do your research (like u did) you should get help

[Hero CDMA General] penbralat:
Okay, here's an interesting observation. Ever since I rooted my phone the other day I have noticed that my phone is roaming for both data and calls 24/7. I have reset the device several times with no luck. I didn't notice this when I first rooted it but seeing how it's been roaming for nearly 2 days I have to assume it has something to do with it. I live outside of Boston and I am in the city very day so there's no reason why I should be roaming. Has anyone experienced anything similiar to this? I am wondering if I should just unroot the device and reset the phone to default settings. :(
[Hero CDMA General] flipzmode:
I doubt that the phone would even work if you did this but is it possible you flashed a rom that wasn't meant for your phone and included an improper radio.img? More than likely your phone wouldn't boot at all if that happened though.

I would try flashing the factory ruu and see what happens.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=559622

Make sure to get the Sprint one.
[Hero CDMA General] penbralat:
I appreicate the input but I flashed the device exactly to the "tee" so I know that everything was done right. I made a recovery backup of my system file so I might just try to revert back and see if that fixes it or not. I just find it extremely weird the roaming just started out of no where.
[Hero CDMA General] benisntfunny:
Everyone else that had done their phone right didn't have it roaming non-stop following the root. Not saying you did it wrong but you seem defensive about the possibility that you could have messed it up. Are you familiar with rooting phones? have you done it many times before?
[Hero CDMA General] penbralat:
I have done this "procedure" several times over again not with just Google's OS but also with the Apple OS as well as WM devices. I also did this with another Hero with no issues so unless there was a "hiccup" during the rooting process of this one particular phone I am at a loss. Again, nothing that can't be undone I suppose but it's a pain.
[Hero CDMA General] ajones7279:
Could just be something wrong with the network towers in your area. The other day I noticed I was roaming a lot in my own home where I normally get decent service. It's fine now though.
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
Yeah, it's probably just something with the network. You live near Boston... and isn't Boston getting 4G this November? Maybe they're working on adding it to current towers in your area. Lucky! Well, Chicago is getting it soon too, but I haven't noticed anything yet.

there are a lot of roms for polaris, but as title says. which one is the best? which one should i install? i would prefer a rom in german language. any ideas?
[Touch Cruise General] Bodisson:
There is no such thing as "best ROM", because we all want different things.

You will have to read a lot about ROMs, and test most of them by yourself.

What is the best and most user friendly browser for Android phones?

or is it Google's?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] B4DASS:
Didn't realise there were other browsers out there for Android until your post.

Tried out the Dolphin one, it works great. Gonna use that one now.

Didn't install the Steel one as the market comments say that the previous version was better.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ritdaw:
The browser on the Hero is slightly customized from the standard google one isn't it? Dolphin doesn't have multi-touch I guess?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jh71:
I currently use 3 browsers, depending on what I need at that time :

- the HTC Hero internal browser : multitouch and can handle flash

- dolphin browser : has the best interface, but does not support multitouch on the Hero. Maybe on future Android platform (2.0) ? And also does not support flash.

- opera mini 4.2 because it is the fastest, especially on slower (GPRS) networks. No flash, no multitouch, worse interface.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] vette95:
Dohin G1

:)

The Cyanogen mod for the G1 supports multitouch with Dolphin, but just like you stated, I have to agree on 2 of you options:

"- dolphin browser : has the best interface, but does not support multitouch on the G1. Maybe on future Android platform (2.0) ? And also does not support flash:confused:.

- opera mini 4.2 because it is the fastest, especially on slower (GPRS) networks. No flash, no multitouch, worse interface."
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] furrypotato:
I'm happy on the standard browser.

But having come from WM where I used the beta version of Opera Mobile 9.7 I'm looking forwars to using the Opera Turbo on my Hero when they release it finally. It sped up browsing a hell of a lot ( just a few seconds to load any website)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xlxl:
dont like the standard brower at at. it is just too slow, have too wait 5-10 sec before something shows up... just too long.

Dolphin

Dolphin has a pretty big footprint (check in Taskiller), and has the annoying habit of starting spontaneously, even if not used. For me a reason to stop using it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ritdaw:
Looks like Dolphin has working multi-touch on the Hero now. I am going to give it a try for a few days.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] nelly1977:
Dolphin for me

Hi guys,

Just to give u my opinion.

I used steel a while ago, not sure which version it was, i found it ok but no better if not worse than the standard browser.

Switched back to standard one until i stumbled across this thread and found dolphin was available.

I find dolphin drastically quicker and the whole interface a lot better.

Multi touch on hero IS supported on the latest version but tbh its not a feature i find myself using that much anyway.

The gestured browing on dolphin is also a treat once it is set up, takes a bit getting used to but stick with it, its great.

Just my thoughts guys
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Soaa-:
Dolphin is quite interesting. I'm trying it out right now. Addition of multitouch is quite important for me. I'm enjoying it so far.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jirafabo:
How have you managed to use more than one browser? Once I downloaded Dolphin, any time I click a bookmark (even in bookmark widget) or link it always opens up in Dolphin...
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jirafabo:
Furry, Opera 10 is available in Beta right now... m.opera.com/mobile on your phone to get it..

*edit* Actually I tried to install it and it downloaded as a .sis file. Whatever that is. no luck yet...
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jh71:
So you made it the default browser at one time or another. I did never select that option (this choice comes up if I want to open a link).

I choose the program I want to use from the program list... for example wikipedia is text based and very fast on Opera when I am on a GPRS network.

I don't use the bookmarks widget ...

.sis files are for symbian platform phones like nokia

They do run as an exe. Just unzip the file, then open the folder and double click customRUU.exe, and that will run just like an update from HTC!!

Make sure you have HSPL'd your phone first, and have a read of the stickies in the rom development forum first.

The rejected/ignored incoming calls manually are treated as missed incoming calls on WinMo, that's so inconvenient.

I find that the latest version of Inesoft Phone 5.07 provides a solution:

Inesoft Phone 5.07

* Fix - hardware button press and sound and lights in some PDA from HTC.
* Fix - on pda c WM6.5 now synchronized with a desktop Outlook WinXP SP3 created in Inesoft Phone contacts
* Fix - error message "SafeLoadStr"
* Fix - for HTC Diamond 2 when press the green hardware button. Now once is a call (off this fix can be created in the registry HKCU \ Software \ Inesoft PIM \ Settings D2Hack variable with a value of 0)
[COLOR="Red"]* New - if the registry HKCU \ Software \ Inesoft \ PIM \ Settings - variable CID_ResetBlocked set to 0, then blocked incoming calls are missing (affects meter and a reminder of missed missed calls). By default, such calls are not considered missing.[/COLOR]
* Other minor fixes

I believe the problem is that the GSM here in the states uses a different radio frequency that the hardware isn't capable of switching to...that the rest of the world uses.
