[Nexus One General] dwang:
are you sure you aren't touching another part of the screen?

Sometimes the palm of my hand touches the bottom left of the screen and that will cause random touch events.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
You need to touch slightly above the dot. Otherwise your finger is very close to the google search soft key.
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
I know for fact that sometimes I DO touch other parts of the screen like with my palm, etc by accident. however there have been cases where this wasn't happening and I still have miss touch events.

Example. I was holding my phone with my fingers in landscape with my left hand, and using only the pointer finger of my right hand to touch something in the middle top of the screen, at which point the phone pulse vibrated and the quick search screen popped up.

I posted to the google link outlining the different events that I have noticed. Multitouch would fix point averaging between somewhere you're accidentally touching and where you intended to touch. This however isn't the only thing going on, as I do believe there is some random strangeness occurring. I never had any such issues with my G1.
[Nexus One General] cuitao:
it happens to me,too, i thought it is caused by my palm touched the edge of the screen when i clicked using finger, but it is not. when i restart the phone, it,s gone.
[Nexus One General] cuitao:
yes. that's the dot.

I read from another reviewer, he said the sensor of the soft key is located a little above the icon for the key. this may cause the problem.
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
This messes up pretty much everyone I hand my phone to look at/play with. Its fine if you're aware, but it does show a sign of less refinement in a device that would have been nearly 100% free of hardware design flaws.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
I feel the same way, especially with the soft-buttons and the "p" key in portrait mode. Last night after walking a bit outside my key-presses were atleast an inch off.....I attributed that to my fingers being a little staticky.

Othertimes my fingers just never work on the screen for a few seconds, rubbing my fingers together fixes this problem.

Something to do with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_sensing I guess
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I find that sometimes my fingers wrap around the phone and just touch the front edge of the screen while holding it, causing random key presses. I guess I'm still used to holding the wider and less sensitive Touch HD.

I upgraded my HTC Ozone to 6.5 the other day and noticed that my camera naming has been reset to imag0001.jpg. Where can I fix/hack it so I can get my numbering in order?

thanks!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
hi,

I found a new program in the market to make the controls on your Bluetooth headset work with music players, other than the HTC Player!

Program name: "headset button fix"

But it requires that you uninstall the HTC Music Player.

Question: if I dont like it...

How can reinstall the HTC Player??

Where can I get that program, so I can reinstall it???

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] defaria:
Two questions:

First, where do you get this program?

Secondly, how do you uninstall the HTC Music program???

Any media player can easily top the HTC Music program's functionality.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
K

It is in the android market

Have not tried it yet

And there are no comment yet

Dont want to try till I can reinstall the original player back

If I don't like it
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
bump...

does anyone know where I can get Hero's original programs.

I have searched..

cant find.

but must be available some place!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] GeknGekn:
It's easy! From adb pull the htcmusic.apk and htcmusic.odex to your comp. Then when you choose to install it again install from adb command. VOILA
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
Thanks..

that is what I figured .. I have to do...

New Sprint TP2 trouble

I am having trouble staying connected with my sprint TP2. I did the olipro unlocker and all necc details but not working. very frustrating! :mad:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dj_ox:
my does not find the network

i did all the steps with no problems at all, but my phone can not find the GSM network, when i switched to cdma i can connect to verizon (even my phone is sprint) but can not make it work with ATT.

i also paid for the software.

guys, i just went to set the network manually and is working like a charm!!!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] leslie50:
working?

Yes, but is connection holding???
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] charleswesde:
Im guessing probably not. For most the problem hasn't been connecting to the network, its been maintaining a connection. If there's anyone who isn't having problems with dropped connections itd be nice if they posted here. But from what I've seen here and over at ppcgeeks no one has had such luck.

[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
need one. standard media player is flat as all get out. recommendations?
[Nexus One General] twitch101:
flat? really. i jam mine in my truck and its bassy as hell lol. have to turn down my sub somtimes to make it sound right.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Will this player handle .wav music files? or is there one that will?
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
extra bass doesn't mean extra good. perhaps your speaker setup is appropriate for the onboard equalizer. mine isn't. i want adjustability
[Nexus One General] The Jones:
I dont think there is anything decent out there as I wouldnt mind an equalizer though I would describe the output from the device as punchy and really quite dynamic. What sort of headphones or system are you plugging into it? The headphones it comes with are somewhat weak....
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
i haven't tried my closed circumaural (sennheiser 280 pro), but my sennheiser in ear buds usually sound decent enough, and are a lot less cumbersome. however, everything on this sounds completely flat. my zen has an equalizer that allows me to set everything up perfectly. much more dynamic, and appropriate for me. i have partial hearing loss :/
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
No EQ . Not possible with androids sdk from what i understand.

There is one application that tries this but it is horrible.

Definitely ones of my biggest peeves of android.
[Nexus One General] aleitry:
i can confirm that the music app on board the nexus one handles wav files.

until (and if) andless handles flac files, I'm going to listen to wav files. sure, they take up quite a bit of space, but man do they sound sweet.

for what it's worth, i like the sq. that said, i use custom iems and can max out the volume with no discomfort. that definitely means that the n1 isn't the loudest dap ever.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Very Cool...that makes me a very happy camper! :cool:
[Nexus One General] Amdathlonuk:
There is an equalizer program on the market.

It's something like Platinumeq with audio player.

It works very well and has about 15 sliders to adjust as well as 30 or so presets.

However it is £18!! but worth a download and try to see if the sound can be improved, I find it pretty damn good actually.
[Nexus One General] Rashkae:
You mean this?

http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/multimedia/audio-player-witheq-platinum_bdli.html
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Those are the only ones Im aware of and they most certainly did some ass backwards hack. The sound is absolutely terrible , random skipping in songs , a resource hog even on the N1 after a day or two.

Unless you are just using stock or cheap-o earbuds the sound will get distorted badly.

Anything remotely close to quality headphones and youre going to hear alot of distortion. Wouldnt recommend at all.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
dont need EQs. stock headphone are junk (sound flat). use better headphones and it will be like night and day difference in sound quality. i have like $30 dollar headphones which is cheap and they already make huge difference.
[Nexus One General] Amdathlonuk:
That's the one.

I found it worked rather well on my Hero?

Maybe I'm lucky or easily pleased.. :D
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Quite the contrary.

The better the headphones the more the need for an EQ.

Every headphone (and speakers for that matter) have there own characteristics. The more expansive the sound range becomes the more EQ can come into play. On top of that every user has there own preferences and there own sources of music.

Thats like saying every TV should have the same stock video presets regardless of the source.

For low end and budget headphones theres not much range to work width making EQ barely noticeable.

lol Perhaps.:D

Meltus here and the guys from coreplayer among others have been adamant that Google hasnt given access to the sources needed for a proper EQ.

What sucks is that Coreplayer also got shunned by Apple for the same reason. Those guys do great work yet are limited to WinMo.
[Nexus One General] Jak Crow:
I tried my set of high quality headphones with my N1, and the N1's sound is simply terrible no matter what music player is used. No dynamic range, incredibly flat sounding, no bass what so ever. This is in desperate need of an EQ no matter what. At least bluetooth stereo is better.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
told ya, lol
[Nexus One General] seanowns:
I agree the nexus one isn't fantastic with my Ultimate Ear triple FI's, but hey it's a phone. The iphone is horrid too. When i am home I just use my Sansa Fuze to get some solid sound. If i use the nexus one(which I do), I just remember it's a phone and tolerate the worse sound. I honestly tend to use my cheaper headphones to compensate as well.

If you care about sound this much, I am sure you already have a high quality mp3 player. If you not, 75 bux will get you a 8gb fuze+16gb micro sd card, and this should suffice with limited pocket space taken!
[Nexus One General] SBS_:
Tried to listen to some music for the first time now, just to check out the horrid flat sound with no bass.

Launched Spotify, put on my Boss Quietcomfort 2's (granted, not the most neutral headphones around...) and selected a song with some bass etc.

Plenty of bass for my ears, even with Spotify which doesn't exactly have the highest bitrate around (160kbps mp3 or ogg, can't remember). Decent sound which couldn't be called flat even if you threw a rock at it.

Might be pre-EQ'ed a bit for all I know, but it doesn't sound bad at all.

Couldn't check out the built in media player since I deleted all the mp3's that were pre-installed on the SD-card
[Nexus One General] Jak Crow:
Even the G1 sounds better over headphones than the N1. Kinda sad.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpedia:
Can we disable the Camera to get another 32M RAM allocated for Camera?

I rarely used the camera, I think if another 32M RAM can be used by system, then we can run more application.

Any idea?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
We never had 32MB more ram from the 10MB ram hack, no taking cam off will not give more ram.

Ram=Random access memory totally diff from rom or what the hell your thinking of.But if you really want more ram i think you should get a new phone or something cause taking cam off aint gonna help the ram.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpedia:
As I knew, the G1 has 192Mb of Memory.

8Mb fast memory is allocated to graphics GPU0

8Mb RAM is allocated to graphics GPU1

32Mb RAM is allocated for Camera, Media processor etc

1 Mb is allocated to the framebuffer (screen buffer)

2 Mb is mapped to be shared

19 + 32Mb is used by the baseband (AMSS)

7 Mb is used by the kernel

88Mb is left usable in android.

What I want to do is that disable the camera in the kernel or system module.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Well no we didn't get 32MB extra, but reallocating the Camera RAM in kernel is possible although it wouldn't give hardly any boost. The problem is it would also likely disable sound & several other things, since it doesn't have its own allocated section, just a "shared" section for Camera, Sound, things like that.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpedia:
Thanks for the clarifying.

Any ideas about how to reduce the "shared" section by disabling the camera?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
But if you have no sounds how will you hear the ringer or other media things?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Nope, its all allocated as one section in the kernel. So by disabling it, you disable anything mapped to it. There is a little bit of unclarity because in Rogers Dream kernels though the GPU1 memory is mapped to SMI (second ram chip, ~64MB, first chip is ~128MB) but when we tried to change GPU1 to SMI in our kernels it causes graphics problems. So we ended up disabling the GPU1 memory & pretty much killing 3D.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpedia:
Another approacher is to replace the RAM hardware with HTC G2's 288RAM?

I don't want to give up my G1, as I like the keyboard so much.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
But will that work and is the ram the same size too?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Nope. No go too, the 32A hardware as well as the Hero hardware use the MSM7200a chipset instead of the MSM7201a chipset in the Dream/32B Magic. They don't fit in the same box & the RAM chip is soldered onto the whole chipset.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcarrz1:
@geniusdog

Are you seriously using the rogers dream in the US on ATT? and still paying only $10 for data, cuz they think its a dumb-phone?

im only getting edge on the tmo one. duh. just curious tho!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Yes I am using it on AT&T 3G, but not for $10 data. I had an iPhone plan at first but I grew to hate my iPhone so I sold it on eBay for $360 and bought an unlocked Rogers Dream to replace my AT&T 3G-less ADP1. Best move I ever made I think :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcarrz1:
yeah. well im actually jealous of you rite now, cuz im using a tmobile one. and the rogers one looks sooo cool. and i only get edge (which is fine, don't get me wrong) and paying $10.

I think you could be paying only $10 too... because the dream shows up as a sparkfun uubertracker or something in att system. LOL
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defconoi:
yea I dont know why this ram is dedicated to the camera, I think we should take a look at the possibility of managing the ram a different way. I dont use the camera much either, and I think it would be nice if we at least experimented with different concepts and modified the kernel to free that memory for other things, and have the camera use that ram only when the camera is in use.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iman07:
this is a very interesting topic. i want to see it progress. i really dont use the camera that much either, i mean the only time i REALLY use it is when i need to scan a barcode. i practically carry around my Fujifilm 12.2MP camera in my jacket pocket all the time so if i truly needed a photo, ill just take it with that. it seems like a lot of wasted RAM that could be used to boost our speeds tremendously. i mean look how much 10mb increased the performance of my MT3G. i really think someone should invest some time into this.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
wrong forum go to Q&A
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bubonik:
So what is android development if this isnt it? Unless this is Rom dev and not Android dev.

Personally Id like to see that 32 reduced to the minimum amount that sound needs. I never use my camera and wouldnt miss it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domenukk:
I bareley know anything about the system structure of android, but is it not possible for the camera and sounds to use the shared ram also? :confused:

if camera is a bit slower and sound starts later, it would be no big deal for most.

video could wait for sound whatsoever.

if my phone is in silent mode, I would earn a lost of ram...

somebody should look into this (for 3d gaming experiance is more important to me than sound out of an horrible speaker.) :D

how to do ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chompx2:
I guess someone needs to be in the toilet, to come up with a fix.

Well I guess we just keep the thread open and see what happens.
[Droid Eris Android Development] JTF2007:

[Droid Eris Android Development] CPCookieMan:
Didn't they just do a bugfix a few days ago?
[Droid Eris Android Development] ataranine:
That was issued to fix one bug. The one where your phone locks up on you at the lockscreen and you have to pull the battery.

There's still one coming on the 22nd that fixes a lot of other bugs. It won't be 2.1.

rooting 2.1 with sense on eris?

i hope i'm not the only one to think of this but:

if firmware 2.1 does come out on the 22nd of january, what does this mean to all the work done rooting firmware 1.5? because i'm pretty sure the problems with rooting the eris is not necessarily with fw1.5 but the sense UI thats layered on top of 1.5

even if 2.1 does come to the eris, it'll probably be a watered down version of fw2.1 because the hardware on the eris is not really optimized for 2.1 and it'll probably have a newer tweaked sense UI built upon the code from 1.5

i hope this is not a draw back but it's something to think about
[Droid Eris Android Development] pinksocker69:
It depends on the kind of attack we end up using. If we end up attacking the linux kernel directly, I doubt there will be time to plug the holes at this point. The bootloader / updater stuff, though, might be more risky, and I've been wondering about this for a while now. Guess we just have to wait and see which attacks come to fruition.
[Droid Eris Android Development] moqadasi:
no kernel source code

i see what you're saying but htc hasn't released the source code for the kernel. i think thats what the senior members of this forum (acidbath5546, ataranine, rigmrt, etc.) are trying to get from htc through those emails. so the method of "attack" must be something else. unless of course those Mod edit: Employees at htc decide to allow us to use our devices the way we want

i'd love to contribute but i'm soo dame busy watching hulu, they've got some great stuff over there :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] pinksocker69:
Really, guy? :mad:

Either way, the way we're currently attacking it is like this: we know that a vulnerability was discovered on a certain date, and patched on a date after that. Fortunately, both of these dates are well after the date that the current version shipped, meaning that the target kernel must be vulnerable. Obviously this security flaw has been patched, and will do us no good in the future, but at least it's a start in our workflow.
[Droid Eris Android Development] acidbath5546:
yep

We have been trying...and Htc is sorta hearing us...

I just got word from someone at Engadget Mobile that Htc has heard us and seen the threads and emails..

And like they did on the Hero, they will release kernel code...its just a big machine over there...so we do owe them a bit of patience..

But it is good to know they heard..
