I've been using Songbird for almost a year.

Actually, I'm in a constant battle between iTunes and Songbird for syncing my music/playlist right now. Songbird seems good but when you start adding extra plug-ins it seems to slow it down. iTunes seems fast compared to Songbird but I don't like having to use iSyncr or iTunes Agent to sync my music. I just want to mount my SDCARD and sync.
[Nexus One General] ErlyD:
Anyone have a good way to sync podcasts? Music is fine using banshee. But wish it had an android app to allow syncing podcasts. Now it just mixed everything together. Podcasts pop up like music in albums.

Hey people, I have recently got me a Kaiser...and just got a new screen put in it, and it is going to replace my everyday phone, so this is my farewell.

Thanks to everyone here in the Herald forums for the ROMs, the advice, and the friendship. You have all been great to me.

I know that I didn't post nearly as much here as I did in the Wizard section, but I'd like to think that I helped someone somewhere at least.

Anyways, thanks again...if you guys need any help with anything please don't hesitate to PM me...I shall be lurking around these forums from time to time of course to see whats up, but most of my time will be the Kaiser boys.

Thanks for everything!-ashasaur AKA Christian

Can anybody tell me how there repairs went with a unlocked bootloader..I've been holding out but I'm REALLY tempted to flash CM 5.0
[Nexus One General] Dayzee:
UK HTC sound like they are on the ball - I'm hoping its true.

Mine went in for failed Haptic response out the box - it was also Bootloader Unlocked. Got an email from HTC today saying simply "Your device is being returned to you." My heart sank as it seemed to be saying what I feared, that they'd take one look, see the unlock, and send it back doing nothing. However, as I understand HTC terms, even if its out of warranty, they ring you to say that, then say how much it will cost to repair and ask if you agree to the charge or want it shippping back unrepaired.

So I called HTC - if your device is with them - keep on top constantly as they have always been very helpful for me. - Spoke to a guy called John and told him I was worried that the email meant I was getting my old device back after being told I'd get a DOA replacement. He checked up on the ticket, and told me there were two serial numbers listed, so it looked likely I was indeed getting a replacement, as that was what the ticket has always advised. He said it would likely be sent out today or tomorrow and should be with me by Friday. Again, there was no mention of the bootloader state. In fact the only time it came up was on my initial call and I had to mention it myself, to which the response (admitedly from someone who didn't really know what I meant by Unlocked Bootloader??) was to say that unless there was third party software ON THE DEVICE, this wouldn't be an issue.

I have JUST as i type this recieved a shipping email - it has a Serial number (not from my old device) and IMEI (not from my old device) so HURRAH i seem to have a replacement device. I've also been sent a tracking number for UPS

Will let you know the state of the replacement when it arrives - My original device had no screen clicks and no dust - just my luck I'll get a replacement with Dust and clicks LOL But hoping not xxx

Dayz - feeling optimistic xxx
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
actually if they sent it back to you because the warranty was void they would charge you for shipping both ways. It probably means they fixed the issue and are returning the device or maybe another unit.
[Nexus One General] blunden:
Interesting indeed. It would be great if they have decided to fix obvious hardware defects now. :) Hopefully it's not just an isolated incident.
[Nexus One General] Dayzee:
My new handset is back and on initial close examination, there is no dust or screen clicks - Hope that condition remains.

I DID get a replacement handset but I've no idea if its refurb or not - it looks as new (and I've examined it meticulously) and the Haptic/vibrate is working. Its also locked - in that it hasn't got an unlock - Obviously I expected a replacement to be stock and bootloader locked.

With regard to the unlocked status of my original handset - at the HTC end, it was NEVER mentioned at all. I brought it up initially, as I wondered if they might refuse to take it in fo exchange if they knew. The rep I spoke to clearly had no idea what I was taklking about - he asked me who unlocked it and I explained I had unlocked it myself using the programming on the phone. He then said it's not an issue, unless you have third party software on it. I replied there wasn't (It was returned to stock before I sent it, except for unlocked bootloader which i couldn't change) and he said the UPS label would be emailed to me and I should get it ready for return pick up on Monday. From that time, the bootloader was never asked about, or mentioned at all.

My theory though isn't that they are accepting Unlocked bootloader handsets anyway, but that they just aren't fully clued up yet, either in the UK repair centre or on the UK Rep Customer Service lines, and so the presence of that tell tale Lock symbol wasn't really an issue. Its quite possible and likely that as the reps and engineers become more familiar, that Unlocked bootloaders will be at least questioned, if not refused warranty. I consider myself very lucky to be honest.

Dayzee
[Nexus One General] icon57:
so did you unlock again right away? or is your sig from the one you sent in?

glad it went well for you...i unlocked the phone as soon as i had it in my hands and have not had any issues at all...but good to know htc isnt looking to close at the locked/unlocked bootloader
[Nexus One General] Dayzee:
Nope haven't unlocked again, though I will be doing - going to let it settle in a bit before I do it - was really stressful getting a hardware problem so early on a new device and having voided the warranty... I'm not keen for that again.
[Nexus One General] mr_skot:
Does anyone have a clue why the N1 would be doing this?

It's an odd behavior. After reboot, and the colored X animation, the handset will beep 5 or 6 times in rapid succession as the unlock screen is displayed. Across the top in the status area is the message 'Preparing SD Card' along with a little SD Card/Sprocket icon.

Not sure what triggers this. I've searched the forums but couldn't find anything.

Anyone else?
[Nexus One General] dbaboci:
Mine beeps once (that's the ringtone i have for default notifications) since when it prepares the SD card it treats it lets you know with a notification (that's what i figured anyway) - maybe your ringtone for default notifications is 5-6 beeps in a row?
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Go to Settings>Sound & Display, and deactivate SD Card notification.

I had the Wifi sharing cab with my old 6.1 windows mobile on my touch pro 2 which worked great. I got the upgrade to 6.5 through T-Mobile USA and when I installed the wifi internet sharing cab that I got from here, I cannot find it anywhere on the phone to use it. Any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] joedaddy713:
Go to settings>all settings>connections that's where I found mine. I also upgraded to 6.5 from T-Mobile.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
Why would you need to install anything? T-Mobile puts it on the phone for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DeoreDX:
The OP is refering to WiFi internet sharing, not blue tooth or USB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
So it's not in the 6.5 version? I swear on 6.1, I had wifi sharing built in. HTC menus and all, no need to install a cab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
Wow, I don't see it. What the hell am I remembering then!?!?! I remember HTC menus and setting up my wifi network to share, password and all. All without WMwifirouter.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dex1701:
It does come with tethering out of the box, but not the wifi router/access point functionality.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
True. Well it's good to know that I have a backup to WMWifirouter, if that ever "fails" again...

Are there any pros/cons to upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] rorytmeadows:
PROS: New lock screen, new start menu, visual voicemail, search phone function, some minor improvements throughout, apparently a better radio for more exact service signal, better/faster GPS/cellular triangulation, weather on home page, weather based on GPS location

CONS: Greater risk for errors with installed programs (see services.exe thread), new start menu, you have to hard reset to upgrade, slightly more RAM usage

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanpei:
first, a thing we must know for porting job is what boot.img included.

here: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Unpack,_Edit,_and_Re-Pack_Boot_Images

the ramdisk do some initializing jobs, so if we port a ROM, we should ensure that the content in ramdisk and files which are included in ramdisk (like init.rc), have necessary things the ROM needed.

for the first step, we can just extract the boot.img from the ROM, and extract the ramdisk from the boot.img which extracted just now, then repack it with my kernel (you can extract the kernel from my boot.img with same tools).

(to execute the perl script in link above, you need linux or just cygwin. )

but if we are sure that the ROM we want to port have nothing special with ramdisk, just like common ROMs, we can use my boot.img files directly. for eclair ROM, I suggest you extract the boot.img from my ROM, and don't use the first boot.img (test-NOCDB.img) I had posted.

after this, make our update.zip (use other's ROM as an example, especially the update-script in META-INF directory). sign our zip with testkey and apply it, then we can make our phone booting into desktop.

(you can find information about sign and download tools here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=471586, though the thread is not talk about how to sign things)

the main troubles we may meet probably are symlinks and setperm* in the update-script. if there is already a file/link has a name we want to symlink to, or if there isn't a file we want to symlink from or setperm, we will fail. so check the files carefully.

the next step is make everything work properly. we can use file from a ROM which made for new radio (and work well of course) to replace the one in the ROM we are porting. we can find these files in my 2.x ROM for eclair, or other's 1.6 ROM for donut (and for new radio, since the maker of them tested them already).

the most important files are (to my knowledge):

system/lib/libhtc_acoustic.so

system/lib/libhtc_ril.so (if something wrong with mobile network)

system/lib/libcamera.so

system/lib/libcameraservice.so

system/lib/liboemcamera.so (for 2.x) or system/lib/libqcamera.so (for 1.6)

system/lib/libgps.so

system/bin/akmd

(are there something I missed?)

(if we want to use NCommander's work on CameraHardwareInterface with a 2.x ROM, we should use my kernel for DONUT instead. I didn't try it, and I don't recommend it.)

these files are some thing work with hardware partially, so different radio may need different files. but if something just work fine, don't hurry to replace the file for it.

and now...., I don't have more thing to talk about, since we have most things work well. but for further tweaks, there are lots of things to do.

everyone can post your question here. if I know the answer I will post it. if I don't or I am not online, I think others will response you. and if there are things I missed or made some mistake, plz point it out :)

I will update this post when we collection more info or correct something. I find that I don't organized everything in order :(. I will update it later.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Phil_McRevis:
Thanks for the post... what's the difference between your eclair/donut kernel? (This is based on your original post about your kernel... is there an updated kernel somewhere i should know about?)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] elegos:
Hello!

I have to edit some lines of init.rc of your kernel. I've thus extracted the ramdisk, edited the file, repacked and tried booting with fastboot boot kernel-img ramdisk-img, but the phone hangs on the operator logo. I've tried even just extracting kernel+ramdisk and boot them - same result (the boot.img works well).

how can I fix it? Thanks :)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Ace42:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] darfri:
What is the previous Diamond?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xxThugxx @ TPB:
you are mistaken, the hero has a VGA screen, 480x640, 320x480 is QVGA and android 1.5 does not even support this resolution :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dsixda:
You are wrong, the resolution is 320x480 as the original poster already mentioned. It is far from the high resolution experienced on the VGA Diamond. BTW, QVGA 240x320, as on the HTC Touch.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wond3r:
The Diamond is an older HTC touchscreen phone. HTC Touch Diamond.

So the hero's screen is not as high resolution as my Diamond? Really? I would expect it to be better ... hmm... I think I'll still make the leap though because this Diamond isnt that great.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
Guys, this has been known since the release of Android 1.1 back on the G1.

The only resolution supported on any device prior to Android 1.6 was the HVGA resoultion that the Hero uses. As this was the only resolution the OS supported, the hardware is a HVGA screen.

Now, when Android 1.6 was released, it added support for many more resolutions, including the lower QVGA (which the tattoo uses), WVGA (800*480, which i believe the Nexus uses) and many more.

The Hero has a 320*480 HVGA screen because when it was released, that was the ONLY resolution that Android could render.

And no, the screen is hardware limited, so the resolution will not increase when the 2.1 update is released.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xxThugxx @ TPB:
rhedgehog, you learn sumat new every day init :lol i knew post android 1.5 only supported a single res, but i was under the impression that was vga not hvga, thats why i assumed the hero had a vga res :rolleyes: thanx for putting me straight :D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
No probs.

I've lost count of the amount of stuff i have learned from this place. gotta admit i wouldn;t know probably even a tenth of the stuff i know if it wasn't for years of fiddling in the winmo forums and learning what you could actually do with these things.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:

Hero is so much better... after ROM upgrade!!

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wond3r:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
I am on Modaco 1.3; it is stable and no issues for me...

I am considering going to Modaco 2.1, but might just wait for Android 2.1... Maybe in 2-3 months!!!!!

Some have used other ROMs, I have not tried....

You have to read up on them.. and see what you like the best for your needs.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
MCR 3.1 seems plenty fast enough and stable enough for me....not had any issues since i went to that.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dsixda:
IMHO the difference in resolution from the Diamond is not a big deal. Plus the screen is taller on the Hero.

The Modaco ROM makes a huge difference, go for the 3.2 version when it comes out; currently the 3.2 beta is for paid members only.. but it is worth it... speed optimizations are amazing and you can cook your own components with the Modaco online kitchen.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] peterc10:
I changed from TD to Hero, and much prefer the screen on the Hero. Yes the TD has a better definition in theory, but IMHO the screen was too small to take real advanatge of it.

the only way i could do anything accurately with the TD screen was by using the stylus. The larger capacitive screen on the Hero is designed for being used with a finger - in fact a stylus won't work on it.

I think the Hero is so much easier to use and that is due to a combination of the capacitive screen, the Android software and the sense ui that HTC installs onto the software. The only thing going for the iphone was its ease of use but I think my Hero beats it.
