Hi, i think that it would be cool if Ages of Empires 2 was ported into HD2. Just imagine a classic game such as that on the big screen of this device with multitouch etc. Along with the strong processor it should run extremely well.

I would like to do the potting myself, but unfortunately I dont know anything about modding or porting.

Thanks

I understand a lot of ROM developers have chosen XDA as their home forum site, but for newbies it can sometimes be a little overwhelming to know where to look for official updated info. Google and XDA searches show every match of JUICY ROM an so I ask;

Is there an official web site or home page or even ONE SINGLE FORUM POST that will always have the official updated info on Juicy Roms? I switched to it this weekend from MightyRom which has a great HOME PAGE to keep me updated. (http://www.mightyrom.com/)

I searched a long time here on XDA and Google before asking this. Sorry if I'm either ignorant or unlucky and the answer is obvious.

Does anyone know what is happening the first time around? I've noticed on a few roms I've flashed what seems like an age passes where you just get to look at the HTC logo...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
After you flash a rom it is like doing a hard reset, everything needs to be initialized, setip etc. Think of it as installing a new os on your computer. This is why it takes so long first time.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I got my self the hero, and my wife the Moment. I am slightly jealous of the hardware she has..but that aside, I am in love with my Hero.

However, she does have one app that i really want and the market place does not have. I assume this is an app installed by sprint.

It is Photo and Video uploader. You set an email address or other location and after a video or photo is taken, it automatically uploads the photo to the predetermined destination. GREAT FOR BACKING UP PICTURES! But, her camera hardware blows. 3.2 MP and it is sooo slow. So picture quality is no where near that of the Hero's 5 MP.

So the real question here - -

Can I ADB into her phone and just take the .APK and ODEX file for this app and push it to my phone? Is it that easy???
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
Some apps are that easy. Give it a try and find out! :) The worst thing you'll get is some force closes.

However most stock apps require files from /system/lib that help run that apk. And they don't have the same naming convention therefore you won't know which one(s) it is amongst the 100s there. But I always say try and see what happens.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thedudejdog:
And if it works upload that .apk for the rest of us! ;)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Thinking out loud here...well..you get the point.

Could I copy all of system/lib and only copy the files that dont already exist?

That could be a giant waste of space though, and it could still rely on a file that I have, not just one that isn't there....

Also since I am not "installing" the app, could Apps2SD hinder me? I am not entirely sure how a2sd works other than tricking the phone into using the SD card as a partition and unioning it with the existing part.

I love how open android is supposed to be, but how the darn manufacturers kill us with the different platform crap.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Am I aloud to do that? I have seen XDA Mods get on to some people about uploading APK's. I guess I should read the EULA for that app before I do?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
Copying the ../lib/ over and not replacing existing files could work. lol. As for apps2sd... you kind of have two ways you can try installing this. Without copying the lib and all that just try putting the apk on to your sdcard and browsing to it using astro or linda (a file manager) and click on the apk and installing it. See if it errors out or fails. If it does, THEN try copying it and the odex to /system/app (if it has an odex I'm pretty confident you won't be able to install it using package manager). If that still fails then you can go crazy and trying copying the lib ha.

I don't remember if I read it on here or ppcgeeks but I believe officially the only stock apk's not allowed is quick office. But don't quote me on that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
So I hooked up to the Moment through ADB last night.

Found out really quickly that I can SU with it....

There is a "non permanent" hack out there to become root, but I tried it and still couldn't mount the file system to copy from it.

Any ideas guys?

From what I understand the Moment uses an FS16? file System? Something Odd that non of the other droids seem to be using.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rockcrawler:
Just an Idea, thought I would throw it out there.

Does the temporary root allow for running applications as root an the device itself?

There is an app in the market called root explorer that allows copy/paste/cut/delete from the system/app folder.

It may be possible to use that app to copy the needed filed to your sdcard and then extract them from there.

This would all be contingent on the app being able to mount the directory as r/w though, so who knows, worth a shot though i guess.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
This root doesn't allow you to run Root apps. not sure why, seems like root would be root.

After some reading, the root method that is being used on the Moment is not the safest. Apparently if you skip a step you have a brick. And with no Nandroid backup at the moment(pun?) I would HATE to attempt it. Apparently though Root sticks until you reboot. There is an INit. script that runs and resets the permisions.

I know, "Don't skips steps and you'll be ok"

I may get brave and try it tonight...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nelson8403:
as far as I can tell you cannot install this app on the hero. I'm not sure what the app is called and unless it starts in the /data folder it is under the system dumps

http://www.4shared.com/file/149766091/c3a7ee61/momentsystem.html
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
ROCK ON! Thanks for the link to the dump, I hadn't thought about looking around in one of these.

I will post what I find out.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
WOOT IT WORKS!!!!!

So any how the application is in that Dump under apps, its only an APK

xms-android-1.0.42-prod.apk

If you are interested in what it does:

You setup predetermined "places" Flikr, FB, EMAIL, what ever.

Any picture or video you take automatically gets put in an upload queue and it sent to your predetermined places.

I am using it for back up, I have 2 kids and sometimes the cell phone is the quickest way to snap a great picture. Keeping these pictures in mutltiple places, like your 7 gig google account, is a nifty way to backup.

I am waiting for a Mod to get back to me if I can post the APK or not. I don't want to get in trouble.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
wonder if their youtube app has better picture quality than ours?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I will let you know in a few minutes. As soon as I get done with my WiFi teether I will compare the two. Pretty sure they should be the same.

EDIT: I am not sure if it is hardware or not. Running the same youTube video side by side - Our HERO has better color quality, Deeper blacker. The Moment has slightly sharper edges to the pictures, not quite as blurry. the moment does not go "Full Screen" for videos either which could be contributing to the sharper look to things. My assumption would be that this is a difference in the hardware. Quality of youTube videos seems to have diminished over the years anyways, none of the really look "good" any more. Probably in an effort to save bandwidth.

However, if you want to take a look personally, I will post the APK for you. Just please don't blame me if you forget to back up the original and want to revert....I love disclaimers.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
I was trying to use that picture uploader, for me it stalls on picking a new location. Wonder if it is because I am on gutted rom and missing some pointers somewhere
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I am using MoDaCo + Optimizations w/ ZipAlign. Not sure if its worth the switch for you or not.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Lessthantito:
that's pretty cool and sounds like a great idea for backing up pics so what all would I need to do to get this and install it I have root access already
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jmanley69:
Wow... that's a really cool program... and just so you know, you can "install" it using adb and it still works fine

adb install xms-android-1.0.42-prod.apk

Then it will install in /data/apps (or if you have apps2sd, on the sdcard under /system/sd/apps)

Works great on the Sprint Hero and MoDaCo ROM
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:

which your app doesn't fit in to. Posting it is not outside of the rules and should be fine.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kellybrf:
excellent work! i would love to get the nuance voice command from the moment, think thats possible?

when set to high quality its just fine, we just need a way to default it to that setting
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
OK so here are both APK files. Of course in ZIP. Open the ZIP file, push the APK to your SD Card, Linda or Atom should be able to open these. Run them with System Installer, not Browser!

I did not test the Nuance Voice, but here it is. Please report back if it works! I haven't ever messed with it, is it better than hero's?

I think these files are safe to post, a mod never got back to me, but neither of these softwares are "pay for".

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dailypush:
Thanks for posting the apk
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
Yup, it's binary. You can try hex editing it (google hxd hex editor, it's a nice one). Also you can search for axmlprinter2. It will convert the binary xml to human readable xml, however just know that it can't actually go back the other way. You can use it to determine if the options is even in the xml file, but you won't be able to change it that way. You can link me to the xml file if you want.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
File is pretty much empy, maybe because this hasn't been run yet from the phone this system dump came from. I'll try and pull mine and diff them.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
I would assume that if it can be changed it's going to be in the dex/odex file. And those aren't too easy to work with. heh.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] SLOYAROLE:
I pushed that xms app to my phone. It's pretty cool but nothing that I'd consider a must-have. It works fine but I probably won't use it at all.

I passed on the voice-command thing. I'm not much of a voice command type of person. Thanks for the links though.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I was expierienceing some Force Closes with the voice app, but it may just be my combination of softwares. Lilke I said I didn't get a chance to test it before I posted the link.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] SprintMediaGuy:
Hey. If you like XMS (Photo and Video Places) and want it to be on other handsets like the Hero, email Sprint and let them know. If Sprint knew that users wanted it on the Hero, it would be on the Hero.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] anthonws:
Hi,

Although I have a HTC Dream, unlocked, I'm considering to buy a Magic since it has more RAM (Vodafone/TMN Portugal sells 32A Boards).

My question is, isn't rooting enough to remove the Sim Lock?

I mean, we flash new SPL, new recovery, and new ROM. How and where is the SIM Lock status retained?

Isn't it overwritten by the flash process? Does the operator checks in real time the IMEI against their allowed IMEI database?

Thanks for the patience.

Best regards,

Anthon.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] BlackElvis79:
I believe that rooting, does nothing to the SIM code. You have to get the unlock code from your current carrier, in order to use another carrier's SIM card. But, once it's unlocked, it will stay unlocked. (unlike the iPhone) I got my unlock code by calling the carrier, and they emailed it to me. It keeps the resale value up :)

Hi guys,

Question regarding email format.

When I enter my Exchange Info, I am able to select HTML format. When I send a test email through, it indeed goes through as an HTML message.

However, after awhile (not sure if it is 5 minutes or 5 hours) - the setting changes to PLAIN TEXT and the control is disabled for me to change it. If I remove my account and re-enter it, I am again able to set it up as HTML and send HTML emails. But again, it will revert to PLAIN TEXT.

My question is - is there a way to edit the registry or something that will not allow the phone to select PLAIN TEXT ??? Or what is going on ??? I have searched and as far as I can tell it is probably because the Exchange Server is older - but like I said I AM ABLE TO SET IT UP AND SEND HTML MESSAGES !!!

Thanks,

Ryan
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Doinshots:
Based on the fact that it changes and then disables the ability to change it, it sounds like it is a policy on the Exchange server.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nayr1482:
But isn't it possible to block the Exchange from doing this ???

Possibly by making something ReadOnly ???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Doinshots:
No. Policies are set by the server and pushed to the device. Even if you were able to 'make something ReadOnly' it would cause an error on the server and not sync.

My company enforces PIN security on phones that sync to Exchange so i need to enter a 4 digit code to unlock my phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nayr1482:
thanks for the info. this is really annoying as our company email is html so when i (or anyone else) responds with our phones it jacks the entire email to text...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
Exchange Server 2003 doesn't support HTML e-mail for mobile devices...and apparently that's different than the format it supports for regular connected PCs. Exchange Server 2007 has more/better support for mobile devices.

When you first set up the account it (the TP2 client software) doesn't yet know that the remote server is running 2003, but when it communicates with the Exchange server it finds out the sad truth (version 2003) and removes the HTML option. I experienced the same thing before my e-mail host switched to Exchange 2007.

But it is amazing that you can send an HTML e-mail at all...not sure how that works..?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nayr1482:
Yes it is amazing - that is why I was thinking there was a ray of hope that it could be forced some way...

I guess I will find out when we are upgrading to Exchange 2007 =)

What settings have you chosen for lock? If set to Dim Lock, it will lock each time the screen dims. You will need to choose Suspend lock. You can also check the timing of your screen dims and suspend in Settings\System\Power\Advanced
