Do any of the custom roms around here allow it?

I am able to do this on an older HTC Touch Diamond.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
You could do it on a Touch Diamond, because this has long been a function of WinMo. I'm not aware if this is even possible within the versions of Android currently available, but I'm sure it will come eventually.

Can you not use your pc as an access point and connect your hero to it via wifi for internet sharing? :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Wond3r:
How would I do that?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rhedgehog:
first of all, youd have to find a hero that actually works with an Ad-Hoc connection!

Do you not have a wifi network at home? if so, just hook it up to that and use your broadband.

Hi,

I would like to be able to pre-define certain words and short phrases which I then send out on Twitter as situation updates.

Anyone know any Twitter clients that allow this? I'm struggling a little with the Nexus One keyboard.

Thanks.
[Nexus One General] Lazzzara:
I'm assuming you mean something like the iPhone's "Social Beacon" app that they created on The Gadget Show? (Dunno if you saw that or not... but I noticed you're also from the UK, so there's a possibility.)

Don't think there's anything like that on Android yet I'm afraid. But if you're having trouble with the keyboard I suggest downloading ShapeWriter. It can take a little while to get used to but it's free at the moment and once you do get the hang of it it's insanely fast and very accurate.
[Nexus One General] finisterre:
Say I wanted to send out score updates on Manchester United games (I don't).

I may pre-define the terms 'Manchester United' and 'Tottenham Hotspur' before the game so that I don't have to key them both in in full each time a goal is scored.

I was stood in my kitchen yesterday, using Tesco's online website, searching what I needed and adding it to the shopping list. It was a relatively simple task, but could have been easier.

It gave me a few questions -

1) Do any online grocers have apps yet? (I know Ocado have one for the iPhone)

2) How hard would it be to write an app that worked through the online website?

3) How hard would it be to make an app that used the barcode scanner as an input device? I already e-mailed Tesco asking how easy would it be to include barcode search into their search results. In theory then, you scan a product your about to throw out and it could add it to your shopping list.

I'm currently e-mailing all online grocers suggesting they could win some customers by being the first to produce an Android app, the new up and coming mobile platform etc...

Just some thoughts... Has anyone else thought similar? Does anyone have any answers?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] grneyedbandit80:
Grocery App

There is and app out alreay that does exactly what you want , it is called Grocery King. It has a barcode scanner and will add what you scan right to ur shopping list , and also allows for user defined input of items, as well as a database with quite a few items already preset for ur shopping list, I have used a cpl diff apps for shopping and thus far this one is the best I have used.

Hi,

I'm truly wondering what's wrong with PIE on my device. If I enter a URL, just nothing happens, not even an error message, it will pretend to load for a little second, say that it loaded 0 kb and that's it. If data is switched off, it won't switch on, if data is switched on, nothing happens either.

All other internet requiring apps run perfectly on my device, e.g. Opera Mobile 10 or RSS Hub, even WeatherWatcher which makes use of PIE. Setting PIE to default browser doesn't change anything about its behaviour.

Here's my setup:

- Blackstone latest stock ROM ;

- Opera Mobile 10 Beta set as default browser ;

- Opera Mobile 9.7 installed for use within Manila ;

- WMLongLife running as a service.

Can anyone help me with some troubleshooting please?
[Touch HD General] telegraph0000:
yeppers....have the same problem...no biggie,, as IE is no good anyways..
[Touch HD General] Georgeous2008:
IE itself sure enough, however, any application depending on IE (e.g. MySearch by Sleuth) doesn't work either because of that. So I am and certainly many others are very much interested in getting IE to run again ... ;) I suspect that there is some conflict with WMLongLife, have to see ...

Hi,

i have tomtom vers 7.915 on my HTC HD2.

It all seems to work ok but ive got two problems.

- when i enter a UK postcode it will not accept the entire postcode , only the first part. ie CV8 instead of CV8 4FT , it wont take the 4FT part.

- how do i get the screen to rotate when i turn my HTC on its side ?

many thanks in advance

I have the full poscodes (for UK at least) but i dont know if your allowed to freely post them so i wont. If you search the interwebs i pretty sure that you can find them from somewhere. Search google for something like tomtom 7 postcode and see what you find.

If you do find them and have any issues then let us know.

I can't quite get my gps to work anymore after i updated the the newest nbh's and rootfs, someone told me i could use the newest rootfs but needed to run 1/14 of the nbh to have my gps working, i tried it and i still can't get it up.

Running Donut AOSP - v242b Eclair themed - by plemen
[Touch CDMA General] jnadke:
You need the right combination of NBH + Rootfs. Use the 1/19 nbh with the 1/19 libgps.so

Otherwise just give it a few days, I'm sure plemen will integrate my changes after the rest of the bugs are fixed in GPS (most everything is working now except time). Right now GPS is in a "testers-only" phase. If you can get adb working and connect your phone to your computer, you can download the 1.4 libgps.so and put it in the adb directory, then run my update_libgps.bat script in page 8/9 below (put it in the adb directory). Connect your phone first before running, there's instructions on how to install adb elsewhere.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=616436

Then install the 1/19 nbh and you should be set.
[Touch CDMA General] gigermunit:
i had it working previously but can't remember the nbh and rootfs combo, are you aware of any previous combinations with working gps?
[Touch CDMA General] jnadke:
For 1/14 you'd probably need to use libgps 1.3 or earlier (or srwalter's libgps in the old thread).

Keep in mind these libgps's were buggy. The new one has everything fixed (but no nbh for it yet... I'll figure out how to create one tomorrow)
[Touch CDMA General] Shidell:
The NBH itself is just the kernel, as far as I understand--the libgps.so (and other libraries) would be built into the .sqsh. I've been busier than I anticipated, but I'm going to update the first page of the GPS thread with your new library, and put out an updated Eclair build with (amongst other changes) the latest library as well.
[Nexus One General] robert-qfh:
Hi,

I wonder if we could have advanced battery charging management on Android in order to minimize wear. The basic idea is to avoid micro-cycles, i.e. don't start charging every time the power supply is plugged in. I find myself plugging in my Nexus several times a day, so I get several charge cycles every day. Instead, the Nexus should draw its power over USB, but not start charging.

The thinkpad_smapi module implements this for IBM/Lenovo laptops. There are two thresholds, start_charge_thresh and stop_charge_thresh. Setting the start threshold to e.g. 40 will not start charging unless the remaining capacity is below 40 %, and stop_charge_thresh will probably (I don't use it) stop charging early. I use a start threshold of 25 % on my Thinkpad, so I always have at least around 1 hour left, which is enough for me. I understand if people want a full battery all the time and rather buy a new battery every now and then. However, my first Thinkpad battery died after 1.5 years (~500 cycles). The second battery is 2 years old and still charges to 77 % of the original capacity (50 Wh of 64 Wh), so this simple measure has a significant effect.

There's a lot to know about LiPo/LiIon-batteries, way more than I know, but the bottom line is that keeping the battery between 40 % and 95 % minimizes chemical wear.

Maybe someone came across battery-related stuff while digging through the kernel sources and can comment on this. Charging is probably not handled in the kernel, but in the radio or by a dedicated circuit, but maybe there's an interface exposed to the kernel that can be used to set those threshold values. That's how it's done on Thinkpads.
[Nexus One General] swetland:
Some changes to how charge management (which is done in the kernel in the ds2784_battery driver) is handled in full and near-full situations are under way. Look for them in the .32-test1 kernel sources in the near future. We're not planning on being quite as aggressive as you propose (wait until 40% to begin charging, etc), but reducing discharge/recharge cycling once the battery is full is planned.
[Nexus One General] simms22:
i found some unusual battery behavior on the nexus one. i'll charge to 100% when on. then ill delete the batterystats.bin and power off. when off, the light is still orange. takes about a full 5 minutes later then turns green. when i do this and power on, with heavy usage it stays on 100% for 15-35 min, then slowly drops. but without doing this, it just slowly drops from 100%.
[Nexus One General] swetland:
100% is not quite the same as fully charged (yes this is a little confusing). If you yank power immediately upon hitting 100% you will typically have a less full battery than if you let it sit until it stops charging. The "power off charge mode" doesn't indicate 100% with the green light -- it indicates "charge complete".

The battery log at /d/battery_log gives a bit more detail as to what's going on (as well as the chatter from the battery driver in the dmesg log).
[Nexus One General] simms22:
thanks for the response! i learned something new today :)
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
I've used the Battery University to guide me on Li-Ion batteries:

http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm

http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-12.htm

(scroll down on either page to see some guidelines).

The first page says that multiple partial recharges are healthier for the battery than fewer deeper discharge/recharges due to less heat buildup. Personally I have never fretted about just plugging in my Macbooks or phones whenever I wanted and the batteries have all lasted quite well.

I also use a slightly weaker charger for my G1 and N1 than the supplied chargers (500 to 700mA Blackberry chargers) and they don't get as hot when I charge them, yet charge to full capacity quickly enough for my needs. The second page recommends a 0.5C charge current (1C == 1400mAmps, 0.5C == 700mAmps) for better life.
[Nexus One General] dwang:
I've been playing w the 32 test kernel and looks like this commit has implemented the battery management.

I've now noticed that if the battery level is higher than 90%, plugging in the charger will not charge the phone. Once the battery drops below 90, the battery will start getting charged.
