My only camera is my Rhodium :-(. I like it better with the 2150 in there; my hands are somewhat large, and it makes it easier to hold the device. It's still slippery as hell, though. I'm thinking about putting some grip tape on it. The thickness difference is small, although perceptible. Imma peruse my desk for something of roughly the same thickness...

Alright, a standard/full-sized Bic lighter is ALMOST as thick as the whole phone with battery/cover EXCEPT for the sliding screen. That part protrudes over the Bic. So, it's a whole hell of a lot thinner than a Kaiser with a cheapo 2600mAH in it...

You don't know Slashdot? It's frickin' awesome. Browse it daily.

Tried to +1 the slashdot article but it won't let me since it's still in firehose state. Until enough randomly selected people actually promote it I don't think that it will become a "Real" story... ?

In any case slashdot is great but just don't read the comments. They are still vehemently (bordering on fanatically) anti-microsoft pro-linux pro-iamentitledtoeverythingforfreeasinbeer anti-bigcompaniesthathadtheynotexistedIwouldnotbeheretypingthistoday 16-year old crowd. Just stay away from the comments, but as a news source it's pretty good.

[G1 Android Development] dragon_76:
I have Cyanogen's 4.2.3.1 installed with the 2.0 Maps application and Navigation works correctly for me.

Since I installed Navigation I am getting a huge "Double tap to answer" button that pops up on my screen when a call comes in.

A) It seems to have shortened the amount of time my phone rings before sending to voicemail

B) The double tap is flaky

C) It looks like ****

I have searched Google and the forums to see if this was an issue people had but can only find people talking about the in-call unlock screen.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to stop it?

Anyone have a .cab for the IE with the zoom slider? I thought I had it on another ROM I flashed but when I switched to my current ROM the IE version does not have zoom sliding. Double tapping to zoom works but sometimes I need to zoom in closer. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pistou:
I could be mistaken, but I don't think you need a separate IE cab. Try using the Advanced Config tweak:

In fact I think IE may be configured by default with the Advanced Configuration Tool.

I bought my Excalibur...erm Dash Used over the summer for $90. $10 more would have gotten me a brand new Black. but oh well

Anyways my phone looks to have been through hell and back.

A gouge in the touch pad & screen...

Over all the case is beat to hell. (the rubber is actually come off as has the chrome)

but its just an Example of the tough HTC Guts :D

But i want to make it look nice and replace the screen and case but :eek: its gonna be like 40-60 on EvilBay:eek: and then im scared imma break it like i did the first I-pod i took apart.

Though now ive repaird upwards of 10 I-pods(classic and Nano) with only 1 fatality.....i just dont want to screw it up...

So XDA, Is it worth making it look nice?

And does anyone know where i can find cheap (NEW) parts?
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
LoL...from Hell and Back...Lol...used by satan himself....lol...:Dsorry but I can imagine your phone right now.

Ebay has good options, do a little bit of search in the forum...I remember Stylez (Mod form this Forum) recomended other sites....but Ebay is a good choice and you can find cheap things for your dash.

There are alot of companys http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&q=HTC+Dash+housing&meta=&aq=f&oq=&fp=408428c3d949fea1 especially in America but i'd check out Ebay as it's comparative and can be cheaper, i think the cheapest on Ebay when i was looking was about £29 so converted to aprx $65'ish

Hi,

Basically, I can't receive MMS with Vodafone. I ran the Network Wizard and everything seems to work except the MMS!!! Anyone had the same problem?

Cheers
[HD2 General] giorgosm:
I cannot even send sms...

I can receive but not send.

Any ideas much appreciated
[HD2 General] dameblue:
I have the same problemen with receiving mail. :(:(
[HD2 General] hnparedes:
Adding to this issue, sometimes I can't connect to the internet through the Vodafone network. Is Vodafone coverage good? Do they have problems in the past 1/2 days?

Cheers
[HD2 General] Jacqie:
I just take Vodafone but they made a mistake. Have to break the contract, send the HD2 back and take a new contract. And wait for numbertransfer for around 2 weeks from the old provider T-mobile.

If I read this, I doubt to take Vodafone :(
[HD2 General] hnparedes:
You also had connectivity problems with Vodafone on your HD2?
[HD2 General] henv:
I have vodafone for a long time. I had a HD1 and now i have a hd2. With both telephone dont have problems with the internet from vodafone. With the HD1 I had problems with mms. Only thing I always do after a hard reset, i to disable use proxy by connection settings. The setting which were send by vodafone dont working. So i went to the site and look for the settings for mms when you want to do i manually. On that moment you couldnt search for HD so i went for another HTC. Looks to me settings will be the same. After do this manually mms was working on hd1. I think it will work for HD2 also, but not try it on this moment
[HD2 General] hnparedes:
And the internet, works without any problem? Because I've the following behaviour:

Accessing the internet through a browser, doesn't always work. Sometimes I can access and some others it simply doesn't access;

Try to send/receive emails using the email client doesn't work at all. Never managed to do it.

When trying to update the weather, it works most of the times.

Updating the twitter usually fails.

For what I understood, you don't have this problems, am I right?
[HD2 General] hnparedes:
Regarding to the MMS problem: it's solved. Went to the website and followed the instructions for the HTC HD. Thanks henv.

Now, only the internet is giving problems...
[HD2 General] henv:
Accessing the internet through a browser, doesn't always work. Sometimes I can access and some others it simply doesn't access -> Working for me al the time.

Try to send/receive emails using the email client doesn't work at all. Never managed to do it. -> Working for me al the time. First time i use it (after hard reset) i go to windows email and not htc, because there is a pop up about a certifcate. I accept that and after that no problems with mail

When trying to update the weather, it works most of the times -> Works for me

Updating the twitter usually fails. -> I dont use this

I think you must go to htc menu settings, menu (right corner) all settings, connections, connections, manage existing connections, tab proxy settings, Disable "This network uses a proxy server to connect to internet".

In Dutch: Ga naar htc instellingen, menu (rechtsonderin) meer, verbindingen, verbindingen, mijn bestande verbindingen beheren, tabblad proxy instellingen, Haal het vinkje weg bij "Dit netwerk gebruikt een proxyserver om verbinding te maken met het internet".

I'm learning to cook my first rom after reading sometime at this forum. Downloaded Visual Kitchen (seems more user-friendly to a beginner like me) and try to cook a rom. When then rom is cooked, I flash it into my x1i. The problem is it just stuck at the SE logo. I've read that some files need to recmod it (file->module/module->file). But my question is which file(s)/folder(s) to recmod? The 'ROM' folder? The 'SYS' folder? Whole folder or just some files? I'm stuck, I need some guide/advice...

Thanks in advance :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
rom wont boot for many many reasons......give us details of what u did. like which dump (r3,tp2,etc) u using in ur rom, which sys with what modds, which OEM u using.

and plz donot recmod ur ROM folder.....

I download the VK from jerpelea thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=483703

Choose to download this

Opened Erviuskitchen.exe then disable which package I don't want then 'Create ROM'.

Am I doing it the right way or I'm missing some steps?

Also, the reason I'm asking about recmod is because I read this on the same thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4923011&postcount=1142

Thank you :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ColdFire_:
I found out that why the rom won't boot. It's because I didn't tick the 'Real WM 6.5 AKU'. After I ticked it and re-cook, my phone finally boot. :p

Thanks for the advice agent_47, I won't recmod my 'ROM' folder :)

By the way, I got another question, is it that I don't need to recmod any folder if I'm using VisualKitchen?

~ Go to experiment and learning cooking roms again :P
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
if ur using VK u have the option of using native XIP....n if ur using the native XIP there is no need recmod unless ur trying to tweaks something OR ur running low on ur slot 0/1 memory

Hello all,

I was thinking ..... which is not too often .. :) ...

Our awesome programmers have been able to tweak manila to get 4 and even 5 columns of program shorcuts in the home tab of manila 2.5.

I was wondering ... if there is a way or someone already knew how, to do the same for the people tab (favorites). I mean, is there a way to get 4 columns of favorites, making each icon a little smaller?

I tried searching, but couldn't find anything. It is also possible that it can't be done.

Either way, if someone could let me know... it would be great. Or that someone could may be come up wth a cab file ... ???

Appreciate all the help from everyone one at XDA ... You all Rock!!

Thanks in advance.

hey

you can either find the system.apk you want and adb it out

or recompile the update.zip file and remove the apks you dont want

tho word of warning messing around with system apks can cause some system instabilites :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
or rm -r /system/app/nameofapp.apk
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ssantos6981:
or you can...

purchase the SUFBS, a rooted browser, from the market.

You can set /system and /data to rewritable with the push of a button and just delete them through the file browser or use the builtin terminal to do it as described above.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TyFactor:
I have a hero rom running and have some customizations done to it that I would like to save for restoring if needed.

I have System Recovery of: CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF

How can I make a backup of my existing ROM for re-flashing?

Found Something:

You need switchrom.sh - try searching in the dream forum for more details!

It is on Amon_RA's latest recovery image. Basically connect usb, boot into recovery, do an 'adb shell' and type switchrom in the shell, and follow the instructions. It uses nandroid AND backs up any ext partition, and gives an easy path back if you need to restore. Very handy if you hop between roms a lot!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] EnderWiggen:
So about 10 days ago I dropped my brand new HTC Magic, about a week old at that point. I was shocked when I picked it up that the glass screen was shattered! I've had a Tytn and Tytn II and dropped it from two floors up onto concrete and it was fine, this was a 5ft drop and it was screwed. Wasn't happy with that but anyway wasn't going to throw $400 out the window, found a screen on ebay and ordered it from Hong Kong, got it 5 days later and we are back up and running!!

Took about 45min to replace the screen, everything seems to be working fine.

The lesson is they don't make them like they used to but at least you can fix it pretty easily.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] EnderWiggen:
Crap can't edit the title after posting :(

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shoemeistah:
wow strange, I've dropped my phone too from about that same height, and it survived with small scratches at the top left and right corners. So I guess it depends on how it lands... Nice job fixing it, looks as new almost. :)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steven_1102:
Help me please.

I had a HTC Dream I guess, flashed it with wrong ROM, which was made for HTC Hero.

From then on, the phone just doesn't work

1. I tried the recovery mode and reboot mode (Home + Power), (Home + Back) as well as Home + Camera. Nothing Works. It's still stuck at the startup screen <Black background shows white text says G1 T-Mobile.>

2. I tried pulling out the battery and put it back and tried to power it up. I retried the above step. Still the same.

3. I tried pulling out the SD Card as well and tried to power it up and retried the step # 1. Still the same.

I did try searching for similar posts but there are way too many and I have been digging them for the past 4 hours but couldn't find anything useful

Guys, Please share if anyone has any idea.

Thanks in advance

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M..N:
If home+power and camera+power don't work your phone is bricked.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grandomegabosses:
also, post this in Q&A. this is either gonna get locked or moved.

and yes you are bricked.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptoro07:
You may not be bricked if you did not flash special spl or new radio, however, you will probably need fastboot/adb method.

Try searching, this has been addressed many times. Also try posting in right place next time too, although it will be a while since you've been a member since 2006 but this is your first post.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandenk:
What he said, but flashing a theme shouldnt brick your phone, only flashing an SPL or radio or something along those lines typically.
[Hero CDMA General] isaacws:
Hi I am wondering if I can activate a sprint hero on a vzw network and if so would they force me to get a dataplan. I really would like and android phone but don't want a dataplan. I am near wifi most of the time. I thought about cloning esns with the new eris but since it would be to avoid fees I think it would land me in some trouble.

What do you guys think? I thought about the vx6900 but no wifi and the bluetooth doesn't work in their build.

Thanks,

Isaac.S
[Hero CDMA General] 702DROID:
why not just get the eris ....its the same thing as the hero but with out sprints crapware on it???
[Hero CDMA General] ekinnee:
I don't think they would allow the handset to be activated. Plus, you'd have to start a sprint contract, cancel it, get charged for the device in order to get the thing in the first place.

As 702 said, just get an Eris, it's the same device and meant for VZW. Personally, I don't see why you would want to pay the much higher plan costs for VZW anyway.
[Hero CDMA General] isaacws:
Well I wouldn't mind switching but friends are all on verizon and it has the best coverage where I am. I would be purchasing a full price device from sprint to activate on verizon and selling my upgrade device ie droid or eris. What I am trying to avoid is shelling out an additional 30 a month for data.
[Hero CDMA General] ekinnee:
Having a phone that relies so much on the internet might be kind of pointless without a data plan.

Also, with Sprint's "any mobile" it won't cost you a cent (or minutes) to call them Sprint to VZW. Nor will it cost you if they call you.

The device cost thing isn't a hurdle if you can afford it, which you seem to be able to.

The big hurdle is getting VZW to add the MEID to their database and allowing the handset onto the network. I don't think they will from prior attempts of my own.
[Hero CDMA General] isaacws:
thanks for the meid info ekinnee. I thought I had heard that verizon is pretty good about adding devices but maybe I was wrong about that.

Thanks,

Isaac.S
[Hero CDMA General] thecodemonk:
Some are, some aren't...you're kindof at the mercy of whatever store reps you get (Verizon has a big thing a while back about being willing to put any device on their network). Best bet is to ask the VZ Rep. :)

EDIT: I do believe they will still force you into a dataplan. The store I went to used to do datablocks and they claimed they couldn't (either through technology or policy) do that on newer smartphones. Just about every provider requires a data plan for smartphones these days.
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
In my opinion, as like many of the others that posted here, I would just get it on Sprint. With Sprint, you now get unlimited free calling to ANY cell phone, even if it is on Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, US Cellular, you name it. Also, I have a feeling eventually someone is going to come out with a way to enable "Roaming Only" in the Hero... which basically means if you enable it, you will ALWAYS be using Verizon's service instead of Sprint. Also, Sprint is cheaper, so I'd just go with Sprint if I were you.

I haven't yet found an answer on how to move apps back to internal memory after applying MoDaCo's ROM. Does anyone have the answer?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ekinnee:
Can you not adb pull the app off of the sdcard and the adb push them to /system/app?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johnsongrantr:
format your memory card to fat32 and then do a "factory reset"

ap2sd doesn't support fat32 and it will just place your apps "where they should be" trying to reverse ap2sd would be a big pain in the ass

*note this will wipe your phone*
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonnythan:
But why /system/app?

The /system partition only shows 12 MB free for me. The /data partition is where apps normally are, right? My /data partition shows 91 MB free when I df -h, and my phone reports that it has 91 MB of free internal memory. So they should go on the /data partition, right?

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonnythan:
At least put it in the right forum. This is the Hero forum.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johnsongrantr:
are you talking about stock apps or market apps.... they are located in 2 different areas

/system/app -stock

/data/app -market

OR if you wanna get fancy /system/sd/app -market apps with ap2sd installed
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonnythan:
I am talking about market apps. I want to move, for example, EasyMoney back to internal memory. There appears to be no way to do it though.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johnsongrantr:
you must be pretty serious about moving them....alright well don't say I didn't warn you about it being a PITA

mv /system/sd/app/{name of your app} /data/local

*reboot phone with sd card removed*

*hope phone doesn't lock up on you*

mv /data/local/{name of your app} /data/app

*reboot into recovery and format sd card to fat32 only*
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonnythan:
/data/app is a symlink to /system/sd/app.

If I move something to /data/app it goes into /system/sd/app. Which is right where it started.

I'm not sure I'm being understood here. We have apps2sd, which is great. I have a 500 MB partition for my apps. But now I've got 100 MB of internal memory on the phone that I can't use for apps.

I'd like to use some of that for my most frequently used apps.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johnsongrantr:
what I was suggesting was moving it from the link on the sd card to local storage, breaking the link, then moving it to where the link originally pointed before ap2sd. Then finally making it so the link will not be recreated.

I understand what you are saying now, but I don't know how you set that variable.... or if it that can even be done. If so, it can't be done easily.

what you're asking is like makeing a raid setup with your nand and your sd card... that's well beyond what I'm capable of doing.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flactemnad:
I've moved several stock apps back and forth between /system/sd/app and /system/app without any problems. Reboot after move is a good idea though.

For market apps there might be an issue when upgrading if they are in the /system/app directory, but I haven't tested that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johnsongrantr:
there will be a problem, android market will not mount /system/app when it goes to update an app from the market. I tried this by accident by copying a a stock app and installing it over it's self (was testing a way to easily remove a stock app) locked the phone up.

There is probally no HUGE advantage in having the stock apps on the sd card as most of them (the ones accessed frequently... widgets etc) would be accessed from the much slower sd card as apposed to the much faster NAND.

The reboot is almost required if the app is running, if you do manage to move the file that's not in the middle of a read you'll get the dreaded com.android.core popup (infinately repeated unable to work around) So it's highly suggested that the app is not running in the backround, or widget on the desktop.

I also highly reccomend the restart when attempting to move apps from your /data/app or /system/sd/app note /system/sd/app is mounted... but not to be confused with any other part of /system
