[Nexus One General] Deathwish238:
Android has supported multitouch for a long time. We're just now getting Google Apps w/ multitouch...that is all.

So to answer your question, the game's multitouch is poorly designed.
[Nexus One General] dudinatrix:
That's reassuring. Especially because in those multitouch demo apps (like MultiTouch Visualizer) the same problem seems to be apparent. Pressing two points near the same axis just seems to kind of stick and not register correctly. And it doesn't seem to react instantly, there's a delay before it recognizes the second touch point.

Does anybody know of an app that demonstrates it better, without the problems I've mentioned above?

Otherwise I'll just sit tight and hope for better implementation one day :)
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
The last time I looked at the source for MTV it was using the "old style" of MT where it would infer the locations of the two fingers based on the "size" of the primary touch. This was the closest you could get back on 1.6 which lacked the true MT APIs. Also, this method involved a heuristic to determine when there was more than one touch - I think the size had to go over a threshold before it would try to decode the multiple touches. All in all it looked a lot like voodoo to me and I wasn't surprised by how flaky the results were, especially when crossing axes.

In 2.0 they now report each touch independently with its own size and pressure. I was going to hack the MTV app to do true multi-touch, but I never got around to it. Did you find a version of it that is "True MT" or is it still the same old original version that was doing it the old way?

[Windows Mobile Software Development] TomasNM:
Hi gents.

Today,I want to ask someone,how can I programm,that my software forces the screen to be rotated into landscape or back on the go(for example after starting). I try to programm something with Embedded Visual C++ SP4. Actually I don't see any problem with this,but I cannot find any source.so I will be very grateful for that.

Anyone can help me with this?

Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] dattrax:
Take a look at

DEVMODE DevMode;

memset (&DevMode, 0, sizeof(DevMode));

DevMode.dmSize = sizeof(DevMode);

DevMode.dmFields = DM_DISPLAYORIENTATION;

ChangeDisplaySettingsEx(NULL, &DevMode, NULL, CDS_TEST, NULL);

DevMode.dmDisplayOrientation = DMDO_270;

// this should force a size message

ChangeDisplaySettingsEx(NULL, &DevMode, NULL, CDS_RESET, NULL);

Hi,

I have this Samsung Black Jack (aka SGH-i601). Now I spend lot of time to find where I can download Windows Mobile 6.1 OS from and didn't get any good impression on my results. Almost all links I found does not work or none of them knows any steps how to use the patch.

I'd appreciate if anyone can invest some time and tell me the proper URL of the firmware and steps how to install that.

:confused:
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] CodeCruncher:
In exactly the same boat... searched for hours trying to find a decent upgrade but only found dead ends or software that didn't work. The Australian Samsung website doesn't have an upgrade available, American one does but it is for the SGH-i607 and I was worried it might cause ISP issues.

Even when I did download the upgrade for the i607 it was asking for some [ID] & [Key]???

Can anyone assist with an upgrade that works on the SGH-i601 please?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] PsyClip-R:
you should look for at www.zn520.com

if not - the only thing we can do - is to make a custom build of samsung i600 WM 6.5
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyricc:
I've searched around these forums and google and no one seems to have asked this question. I find that the software keyboard often suggests non-words as if they are in the dictionary (e.g. ia, pu, br, and a lot of other short words) that make mistyping correction a lot less effective than it can be. Is there any way to excise these useless words from the built in dictionary?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androiid=D:
Dont think so just take off auto correction =D " Setting - Locale & Text - Device Keyboard - Auto-replace =D ''
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyricc:
Yes but I would like to keep the auto correction... for example when I type "ia" I want it to autocorrect to "is" instead of "ia", which it doesn't do because "ia" is somehow in its dictionary
[Nexus One General] tetratex:
Any body having problems updating maunauly after flashing cyanogens multitouch. Nexus cnat verify package. Can anyone help?
[Nexus One General] Deathwish238:
If the package can't be verified it's probably bad...or a corrupted download. Try downloading it again.
[Nexus One General] tetratex:
I tried downloading file three time and still get the same thing. Does it have to do anything with flashing cyanogens multitouch? should I wait for OTA update?
[Nexus One General] artvandelay300:
I too am having this issue. I am more than willing to donate to his hacking cause if I can just find a way to get this update. I am no opposed to flashing EVERYTHING back to factory. Please would someone look into this.
[Nexus One General] artvandelay300:
It's working now

I was able to process the update using a guide i found androidcentral . com

I am too new of a member to post links I guess. If you need this link feel free to let me know. Loving the new update :)
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
I'm having the same exact problem. Rooted my n1 to install cyanogen's multitouch and now when i try to manually install the OTA update it fails. I'm desperate for help >__< anyone have any tips?
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Ok, so here's what I've learned over the last 18 hours.

If your phone is rooted, custom rom OR stock, you can't install the official update package, either over the air, or manually.

You CAN, however, install the patched version of it that modaco released here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=627411

You'll need, at minimum, his 'main update,' and his 'radio update.

You'll also need his NEW VERSION of superboot, if you want to re-root your phone. Installing the updates breaks root, so you'll need this.

DO NOT use the old superboot that you previously used. It broke my Wi-Fi. Get the new one.

Additionally, you'll have to switch from the stock recovery program to Amon-Ra's recovery, available here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611829

The stock recovery program can only install official updates, and on a rooted phone, that doesn't seem to work. So use Amon-Ra.

So, to review here's the steps in the order you'll need to do them:

1. Install Amon-Ra Recovery 1.5.3

2. Install modaco's main update

3. Install modaco's radio update

4. Use fastboot to flash modaco's new superboot.img to re-root your phone.

Done!
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Ok so assuming i follow that tutorial and break my root access, i'd be able install future OTA updates without having to go through all this again correct?

The only reason we can't install it manually now is because we're rooted so it would make sense to say that removing root access would let us perform future updates legit without having to find patches right?

I'm new to android and i honestly don't even need root privileges, i only wanted multitouch.
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Well, to my understanding, no, you won't be able to install stock OTA updates, because your rom (your OS), is no longer stock, so stock updates will fail verification, like they did with this one.

I think you can probably restore OTA ability by reflashing your phone with the stock rom, thereby restoring it to the stock state. There's a very detailed tutorial here, with links to a stock image:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=614850

Also, here's a link that's stickied in the developer's forum for stock recovery options from modaco. Slightly less detailed, but it looks simpler to me:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=619801

I'm pretty sure that being rooted at all breaks OTA support, and having anything in the OS non-stock also breaks OTA support (ie the early MT browser). I could be wrong on that, but I think that's the case.
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Crap. I wan't to try installing the stock rom but i'm looking at the directions and i can't follow them. I'm guessing all the things in bold are commands i have to run somewhere but i don't know where.
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Yeah, it's a bit confusing, and a lot to get your head around.

You mean the fastboot commands?

You used fastboot when you rooted, right? To flash the superboot.img.

You have to plug your phone into your computer and reboot while holding down the trackball to get the fastboot screen (the white screen).

Then you put the stock images in the same directory as fastboot (which you should still have from when you rooted your phone with superboot) and flash them, using the commands from the tutorial page. (You run them from the command prompt or terminal, depending on what OS your computer has)
[Nexus One General] Deetz:
Thanks Tony I was also a nub and trying to find the proper way to de-root my phone this worked 100%!
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
De-root? So you didn't re-root with the new superboot?

Also, you do know that your phone isn't stock now, right? And that future OTA updates will probably not work without similar steps?

If you followed those instructions, you now have the update, but it's a modded version of it, designed for non-stock roms.

Glad it worked, though!
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
The tutorial i used to root my phone required me to download superboot and put the folder in my C: drive. The folder is called superboot but when i was running commands on the command prompt some of them said fastboot, so is superboot the same thing as fastboot? This is what that folder looks like:

Here's what i THINK i have to do.

Download the stock image, extract all the files and put it into the superboot folder i have on my C: drive. Then open up a command prompt and type in:

cd\
cd\superboot
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img

All while my n1 is plugged in while booted normally but with debugging enabled.

Is this correct or am i missing something?
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Fastboot and superboot aren't the same thing.

Fastboot is the bootmode on your phone when you hold the trackball down while powering on. The one with the white screen and androids on skateboards. Fastboot allows you to connect via usb and the command prompt to run some commands on the phone, via your computer, such as flashing the img's on.

Superboot is the name of the img file you flashed (using fastboot), which alters the boot up settings on the phone, giving you root priveleges.

As for your list of commands, I think it looks right. Just do all the steps from the tutorial for restoring stock.

Yes, you start with the phone booted normally, but with debugging enabled. But when you use the adb reboot bootloader command, it will reboot into fastboot mode. You could skip that step and just turn your phone on while holding the trackball down.

Good luck!

And let us know how it goes, eh?
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Oh ok cool, i think i get it now.

One last thing before i give it a try though, i was looking at step 11 but a file they want me to flash isn't in my superboot folder, even when i dump the stock firmware files in there. Do i have to get the file "system.img" from somewhere first and put it in the superboot folder or is it auto-generated some how?

Step 11. fastboot flash system system.img

-edit-

also, this is what my superboot folder looks like WITH the stock firmware files dumped into it:

The boxed files are from the unzipped firmware. Did i place them correctly?
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Oh, I see.

The tutorial page has two links to stock roms.

But they seem to be in slightly different formats. The first one is hosted on rapidshare, and the second on modaco, right? So you downloaded

"22607-ERD79-update-nexusone-stock-signed.zip"???

That one has it in a different format from the instructions. Either download the one on rapidshare, or go here and get the "Image Format Download" :

http://android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/300414/18-jan-22607-erd79-stock-rom-for-nexus-one-images-update-zip-online-kitchen-optional-root-insecure/

(note: i've downloaded the one on rapidshare, but not the one on the modaco page I just linked, so I can't verify that they're identical, although they appear to be. I'm downloading the modaco one now, to check the md5sum)

Edit: I downloaded the modaco image in the link, and it is indeed exactly the same as the one hosted on rapidshare in the tutorial (the md5sums match)
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Oh ok, ill try grabbing it now then.

I did a checksum for MoDoCos and got a mismatch. Zipped i get:

5e17b0351024c8fb1a2020f1fd55210e

and non-zipped is:

e4cf141242e1a362f136a8afd841e0f3

Either way, the rapidfire one is downloading so ill see if that has what i need

-edit-

Cool, the rapidfire md5sum matches up and has my missing file
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Right, the checksums won't match, cause the data is different zipped and unzipped. The math that it does on the data wont yield the same result. But the zipped one you posted matches mine. And the other download should match the md5sum posted in the tutorial.
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Ok so everything went fine, i now have a non-rooted nexus one with an unlocked bootloader.

Unfortunately, i still cant manually install the OTA update :( I get:

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)

So what are my options now? Oh and thanks tony, i really appreciate your help :D
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Always glad to share what I've struggled through...

Sadly, that one's out of my league. In fact, it's precisely the error I got when I tried to install the stock update on my rooted phone.

Not sure where to send you, next. When I got that error, instead of trying to restore stock, I went the other route and installed the modded one, as I posted earlier...
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
I guess that's what i'll have to do then -__- now i just gotta learn how to install the amon-ra recovery.

So this Over-the-Air update was pretty minor, do you think we'll still be able to install the major os updates? Like Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, Froyo, etc?

It's really gonna suck balls if we have to get patched versions of those too. I regret rooting
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
Installing the Amon-Ra recovery is just like installing the restored recovery you just did. fastboot flash recovery amonraimagename.img or something like that.

You can find a link to it in the forums somewhere...

As for future updates, I'm not sure, but I'd guess in your current state, they will also fail. I'm sure others have restored to stock though, and there's probably some discussion of successful/failed updates in the forums somewhere. And lots of folks here who are more knowledgeable than I, to give you advice. You may yet be able to restore to an OTA-able state.
[Nexus One General] PhantomRampage:
Well i think im gonna install the patched OTA, re-root it and then probably put it up on craigslist. Then i'll just buy a new one and i'll be stock again.

So i've installed the custom recovery but i still need to install the main+radio updates. I know to boot into the custom recovery i have to hold down the volume down button and power button, then i choose recovery, but from there im not so clear. I'm assuming it'll say to install update.zip right?

Oh and do i have to rename the main and radio zips to anything specific? Which do i flash first?
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
There's an option on the amon ra recover for flashing zips from the sdcard.

Flash the main update first.

I'm not sure about renaming. Maybe rename to update.zip.

and don't forget to use the new version of superboot from modaco when you re-root!
[Touch CDMA General] jnadke:
I still see some ROM makers specifying a panel_type of 1, 2, or 3 in their default.txt files.

I would like to state:

If you're using a recent kernel (more recent than mid-December), setting panel_type=0 forces auto-detection for all 3 panel types.

Doing so would massively cut down the "my phone won't boot" messages. This is how the NAND NBH files work.

That is all.
[Touch CDMA General] tatnai:
in fact, you don't even have to set it if you have a vogue. just omit panel type from the command line.
[Touch CDMA General] myn:
Will do :)

I updated my Warm Donut SQSH file tonight and changed Panel type to 0. :)
[HD2 General] balane:
This doesn't look good to me. I had my phone tethered to my laptop while I slept which I do often with no problems. Today I got up and saw the LED was blinking orange and green. I looked and the battery was down to 11% even though the status bar showed the battery as being fully charged.

I popped the battery out and in, tried again, same thing.

When I plug it in the LED stays solid orange for about 5 seconds and then stats blinking.

I tried it on the OEM charger with phone turned both on and off.

It doesn't appear to be charging and the LED's are blinking green, orange.

Does this seem like a bad battery? I live in the US so accessories are hard to get, I don't have a spare battery to test yet.

What do you suggest? I have a new battery coming but it's going to take a while before it shows up.
[HD2 General] UncleBeer:
I had that too for a minute. I suspected a faulty charge / sync cable, swapped it out, and never saw these LEDs again.
[HD2 General] tintan:
Had that too. I'm using a second non OEM Battery, I will try it with the original and give feedback.

I had that with my small charging-cable (non OEM) in my car.
[HD2 General] balane:
I've tried multiple cables. I'm hoping the battery is the culprit. I have another one on the way but it's literally on a slow-boat from China. If it's not the batter then it's the phone and that's no good. Doesn't charge on, off or in bootloader mode. I've read all the threads and it really could be either. Fingers crossed.
[HD2 General] hm-helm:
My LED was blinking orange/green too

I was using a non-standard (cheap) battery when this suddenly occurred. Changed to original battery and everything was OK again. Seems like the original batteries are best after all (even if they cost ten times more in my country).
[HD2 General] tintan:
Think that too. My Original Battery works well. The Battery from China is "blinking" sometimes for about 15 minutes.
[HD2 General] Funshion:
same or even worst problem

During the first day i buy the phone and charge for 10hour, after that i switch on my phone i was shocked my phone wasn't charge at all but the indicator light show from orange to green.

[HD2 General] alifath1234:
i was charging my phone 2 day ago, and listening to music and downloading a lot of mb from internet with wifi, and i putted it under my pillow

after about 2 or 3 hour i pulled it out and saw the orange and green blinking

my phone was like a fire stone, it had a very bad result, the lcd doesn't had touch sensitive anymore

after 2 hour the sensitivity came back, but the story didn't finish yet.

after that, every time i charge this phone, the lcd sensitivity goes off,and after i cool it down, sensitivity comes back

but now while i'm sending this message, the half of screen doesn't have any touch sense what is your suggestion for me??? :mad: :confused:

i am having this problem too. the led is blinking and the battery is not charging. i am forced to use a cradle to charge it up.
[HD2 General] blueberet:
The orange and green blinking on charge happened to me a couple of times. In all instances the phone was too hot due to having it covered or temperature of the room was also too hot. Allowing it to cool made it work again. I haven't suffered from this problem ever since I started keep it well ventilated. Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] .hide:
yup. i google for it. and notice it due to overheat. i tried with air con on. it seem working well.

but for me. i cant feel any overheat (like hot/heat on my device when it start blinking.

hide.
[HD2 General] Chrisuk80:
The blinking light is the phone saying its overheating

this happened to me but the worst thing was I could of bought a 1500mAh battery from Hong Kong for something like £5/6 but i decided to buy one from my own country the UK and i read that an extended type was the best so i bought an extended 1350mAh for £7.99 thinking i would have no issues but its with this new battery that it overheats if i am charging via wall or pc and using my phone!

using tbattery it says the battery is only a 1230mAh anyway!!

but with my original battery i can charge and use at the same time so kinda annoyed i thought i was paying more to get better but i guess i live and learn

so now i have ordered an 1600mAh for my phone for £5.99
