Thanks for the response. I can confirm that the bug (Camera causes phone to reboot) is still occurring.

There is an open bug ticket for Cyanogen Mod here http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=792&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Version%20Model%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars%20Modified

Presumably the issue is the same
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] CatalystNZ:
Just installed the JIT Dalvik compiler library... apparently it's faster according to this thread...

Download this zip and extract to your sdcard in a folder calls 'vmlibs'

$su
#mount -o rw,remount auto /system
#cp -f /sdcard/vmlibs/libdvm.so /system/lib/
#chmod 644 /system/lib/libdvm.so
#reboot

According to this post by aaraya1516, the benchmarks show around a 3x speed increase
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gecko01:
Hello, I am a true noob so please forgive me if I sound dumb.

I had a broken screen so I bought a new one on Ebay. I changed it perfectly, it looks good but now when I touch the screen it acts like I touched the top left corner (in portrait)no matter where on the screen I touch (so it opens up the "Start" menu). In landscape it acts like I touched the top right so it opens up the drop down menu with all the running programs.

I would really appreciate some help. I try re-aligning the touch screen but it does not recognize any touches at all. I have to soft reset the phone to get out of the re-align program.

I don't want to hard reset because I have read many cases where the phone gets stuck in align program as it is trying to setup and they have to install remote access or something to get around it.

I would like advise on whether it is the new screen or the phone. Is there something I can check for inside or should I send the screen back for a replacement.

Thank you for your help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unionsparky:
Having replaced the touch screen in a Palm with success, I would say that...

You either have a problem with the connector for the screen, recheck the connection

Someone sold you a bad screen.

Something else is wrong with the device.

At this point I don't know that in your position I wouldn't do a hard reset. What is the worst thing that can happen? The device is already broken in it's current state.

Good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gecko01:
Thank you

Thank you very much for your help. I will try the connector. if it does not look damaged then I will return the screen.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ashasaur:
Did you replace just the screen itself, or the screen and the digitizer? More than likely your digitizer is broken aswell. If you replaced them as a set, request a new one from wherever you got it, and if you just replaced the LCD, then you need to buy a digitizer aswell.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gecko01:
Well, I only received the screen. I cant figure out where the digitizer is on the tilt so I don't know if I changed it or not. Does any body have any picture??

I think I read somewhere that it all comes as one piece(the screen and digitizer), but I can't confirm it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ashasaur:
Indeed they most of the time do come as one peice, so if your connection is good on the mobo, then I would say that the digitizer you recieved is bad. The digitzier is the super thin peice of glass that covers the LCD screen.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbrandon:
Hey guys just got my new Silver X2 need some help please:

1) I keep getting message - sms from network: Zone65%10% every couple of seconds.

What is this and how dio I turn it off?

2) How can I add an old phone ringtone? The ringtones suck and all I want is an old ringtone.

3)I cannot seem to setup a 3G connection, it only has options for GPRS or Cellular. I have activated in the menu, HSDPA and HSUPA.

4) When dialing a number, and I enter the actual number, nothing comes up like on the old win mobile, with a list of possible contacts.

Please can someone help me?

Thanks
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
2) Well just put your favourite ringtones in phone's memory,

not memory card.

Best in MyDocuments or any default directory called MyRingtones.

That should help.

Than choose it like you did on X1.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbrandon:
Is there any way to find the ring-standard one from Windows mobile 6?

Never mind I found it thanks'
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mikeschevelle:
I am reading about NAND, seems that it is basically a way to flash Google ROMs instead of booting from the memory card.

I have a few questions, I have read that it makes linux run faster and the battery life last longer, my questions are about how much faster and about how much better is the battery life vs running from the card. I am still using a winmo ROM that runs pretty good and gets me a few days of battery life, but I am always itching for something new. I tried Ion and a few others but wasnt even getting close to a day on the battery and it would hang up and/or run slow at times.

Thanks for the guidance, I just wanna do my research before going around flashing with NAND, since I forgot which ROM I am using now and the ability to find it again if I want to revert back to it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] papatel:
I would avoid doing a NAND flash unless you have a spare phone handy. I have a kaiser and I have been unable to find a build that is usable on a daily basis. Yes, running from NAND is definitely faster and better battery but its not worth it if you don't have another phone you can pop your SIM in if you get in a jam.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
see the FAQ thread, answers about battery life and nand and everything else.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Seeing as your in the vogue forum, I would assume you have a vogue, so I would ignore the polaris user :)

Nand runs great, it's nothing more than a flashed nbh with android, so you won't need windows mobile.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mikeschevelle:
mssmison, how long is your battery lasting?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] smarcin:
I am running from SD card in Haret and I agree with mssmison. I find Android quite usable on a daily basis and can only imagine that NAND would be even better! I am using Myn's Warm Donut. It's great. It has 8 themes to choose from.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Before my vogue died.. It's hard to say cause I spent so much time developing, installing, uninstalling, flashing etc. But when I wasn't 'playing about' I was getting about 4 days +. Data always on, but I rarely ever make calls..

It really depends what you're doing though, just like in winmo.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
I want that vogue; I've never gotten much past 24h with mine with data on, background data off. I rarely talk on my phone, mainly texting, rare internet. have not noted a difference in battery life between nand and sd. people's experience with battery is very variable.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] loefflerm:
OK let me start off with i was in the middle of flashing it and the battery fell out so i put it back i and got back into recovery mod RAv1.5.2) did a wipe

and tried to start again. but it wont find the SD card. if i take the card and put it into the card reader adapter into my computer it finds it. so i put the sap image

on the card and went into fast boot and did an UN root that work fine so now i have an UN rooted my touch 3g at ver1.5 but the dam SD card reader in the phone still wont read my cards and yes i have like 5 of them and they will not read in the phone but will work in the adapter for the computer and each time i put a card in the phone it ads two file's 1)qxdm_2010026_054934_1,dm file size 32,683KB and the second one is qxdm_2010026_054934_2,dm file size 8,707KB size files what do you or anyone think happened ? for some odd reason it just wont read the SD card but will read it in fast boot mode any help would be great.

thanks

by the way i had to space the two files spelling as this post thought they were links
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pyee0124:
try this:

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] loefflerm:
do you do this a the cmd promt as im not the good with dos.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pyee0124:
Yeah, you do this at the command prompt.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] loefflerm:
Here is what i have,

C:\androidsdk\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 <---is this a zero or an O ?

(waiting for device)

_

is this correct? when i try this in fastboot mode usb it said INF[ERR] command error !!!

ok so i tried the command

C:\androidsdk\tools>adb shell

$ fastboot oem enableqxdm O

$ oem: permission denied
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] loefflerm:
I sent it in to HTC for repair. they said it mite need the original Rom replace on it. it still has warranty till Oct. this year.. the funny thing is it wont find a sd card when plug into the computer with a usb cable and when it is not hook up to the computer it says card ejected please put in new sd card but if you boot the phone volume down and power buttons to get to Hboot it will find the sappimg on the card and run it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] loefflerm:
Well i just got a call from HTC they replace the main board underwarranty they said they could not figure out what was wrong with it. so they just

went ahead and replace the Main pcb nice........:D:D Now if they will ship it back to me quickly i ask if they would overnight to me at my cost they told me NO it will come ground shipping:mad:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderboyy:
I've been having an issue with the voice search button on the widget. Everytime I try to launch it, it crashes. I run Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 and I've tried re-flashing the rom, and it still doesn't fix anything. I'd like to push a new voice search .apk to the phone but I can't find one. I'd prefer not to have to try and re-flash the stock HTC recovery image just to fix such a problem. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] samrozzi:
ok saw a post on the sprint hero boards and wanted to ask over here aswell since the g1 area has a lot more developers for it.

would porting webOS to an android phone seem possible? I had a palm pre for a bit was cool and fast, I like android more but the thought of running it would be cool
[G1 Android Development] nick8197:
Noooooooooo
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
You mean porting over apps?

or running webOS on your phone?
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
In a word:

No.

In more words:

We need drivers. There are no WebOS drivers for Android devices. Many of the existing drivers that we need are proprietary, meaning (and I'm not sure on this part) most likely the hardware specifications necessary to write drivers are closed as well. If they are not closed, it would be possible--but not for a team of geeks like XDA. You'd need a major entity, like Google, to do it, which won't happen. Besides, not all of WebOS is completely open-source, just like not ALL of what goes into Android phones is. It's just not possible--even if the driver issue could be overcome, which it can't.

Yet another word:

This is a question, so it belongs in Q&A. Not to be a jerk or anything, but just letting you know, so next time you can post there.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Doesn't seem possible at this current time however I disagree with the post above if all of xda devs came together then it might be possible due to the fact cyanogen im guessing could make his own drivers etc. However as said above it would not be possible due to the fact it is not completely open-source :(

ps: Why would you want webOS it is nothing compared to android - IF you agree then post back with this a smile ^_^
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
Have you ever written a device driver? You need detailed spec of the interfaces of the piece of hardware you're trying to talk to. Without them you're trying to build the Empire State Building blindfolded with a teaspoon and pair of pliers.

[G1 Android Development] jmhalder:
you know, none of this is true, as the drivers for all of the HTC android phones have the drivers built into the kernel (as opposed to running as modules with the exception of wifi) because of GPL, they have released this information, albeit kinda late (*cough* CDMA hero) one stumbling block is how WebOS is going to interface with the drivers may be different, keep in palm has its kernel modifications "drivers" also available (once again because of GPL) so if interfacing is different, it COULD possibly be reverse engineered... the actual WebOS platform IS closed source however, making this all much much more difficult.

http://developer.htc.com/

http://opensource.palm.com/

dont let anyone tell you its impossible, its not. Are you going to port it? No, if you had to start this thread, then its not likely.
[G1 Android Development] t0mmy:
rofl..............
[G1 Android Development] cruxanyra:
That said I like my android :-)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Also yeah without knowing about the phone it is like building the empire state building. That's why you buy the phone open it up find details on the phone first off and try and figure it out by taking a long look and experimenting otherwise you will never get anywhere. It is like life without actually doing it and just saying about it you will never achieve it so you do it :)

If Cyanogen or another dev decided to do this it is not impossible as long as they know how to build a device driver which i know 4 of the devs on here can do it is not impossible. The question is would they actually do this project?

Personally I do not see a point in this project if you wanted a webOS why didn't you buy a palm sry if i may sound a little rude but it is the truth why buy a android?

If i may have sounded rude in the sentence above i am very sry you can shun me down :)
[G1 Android Development] xencor:
You really have no idea whatsoever as to how computer hardware works. Like the other person said, there just isn't a chance in hell of a small group of people working in their free time without the cooperation of hardware manufacturers to do what you're saying.

Look at AOSP, think of all the people working on it, and we still don't have everything working on it correctly. And that's with an open-source OS, not to mention Android was meant to use on these HTC phones anyway.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Web OS is really nice but doesn't seem very popular considering only 2 phones have it while. 10+ phones will come out with Android. I bet if this was done the person asking would use it for like a month then go to another ROM. Which means all that work trying to make drivers would go in vain.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
So is a small group of people not good enough look at bill gates for example creator of microsoft started of with the apple man 2 people now we have microsoft windows and apple so are you saying a small group of people can't do something amazing every now and again?

Also i do not care about webOS i hate webOS in fact i just wanted to extract my opinion and further fourth nothing is impossible look at wireless electricity about a few years ago seen as a myth now look at it. This could be done one day maybe not now but sometime in the future. Most of webOS is in java anyway and most of it is using dbus.

I thought that emulating it on a jvm may be possible? like freedsb running over the top of windows in a vm.

Also all those who port drivers from windows to linux and max to windows etc. have no help from the manafacturers and they still manage to do it and they work alone.

Im not going to voice my opinion in this thread again i have had enough with people who don't let people talk their mind all it was was an opinion nothing more and a possible chance of it working instead of it sounding like it's impossible unless you try you will never know and that is that stuff this thread i have had enough with you people i am out of here don't bother replying to this because i will not read it.
[G1 Android Development] xencor:
Do the developers on XDA have a source of revenue that I'm unaware of? Do they have billions of dollars in profits that spurn growth and encourage new, more experienced developers to join the business and help? Is there even a business at all?

The answer is no. There is no R&D department behind XDA. There is no venture capital firm supporting cyanogen or kingklick with money.

Again, you really have no idea what you're talking about. This isn't just a "take open the phone, look at the serial number on the board, and then write your own driver." This is something that computer manufacturers spend years developing their own proprietary code and then design specific chipsets to work with it. Years and money, lots and lots of money.

And you're still forgetting that webOS and even parts of android are not open sourced, which complicates it even further, even to the extent of making a webOS port technically illegal under copyright laws.
[G1 Android Development] jmhalder:
not 100% true, both android and WebOS run on top of the linux kernel, drivers are already written, like I said, its not a rewrite of drivers, rather interfacing with hardware may be different, but thanks to GPL, we can more easily figure out how the software interfaces with the drivers since we have drivers (albeit for some different hardware) for both Palm AND Android devices... obviously this would all be no easy task... but hell, android work tits on my Kaiser, with the radio/sms/wifi/camera/gps.... and it WASN'T designed to run android!

something else to mention I suppose is the work done to get Mer Linux (Open source replacement for Maemo) running on the Kaiser/Vogue, it booted and its X system worked enough to get to setup information, albeit the screen was too low of a res to do much and it has far too little ram to be useful... let me put it this way... it would be entirely possible for someone to port WebOS over, though the radio/BT/Wifi/accel/etc. may not work initially. I'd be stoked to try out test builds, and I think so would MANY other people.

*broken down: android wasnt meant to run on these phones, linux was meant to, and android was meant to run on top of that*
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
I have already said in my earlier post that it is not open-source so read b4 you post and even the smallest one man on his own can do someting incredible look at DA cracked the psp 14-15yo and wrote his own drivers and software and look at the ps3 hacker who has found exploit through the memory neither of them have a company or backing just normal people and are you saying that is not possible?

i will not talk any longer all in all webOS is a stupid idea it could be possible one day and end of :)

ps: I don't like but jmhalder is cool :)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Thank you for talking some sense on the subject that it is possible thank you very much i respect you because you think anything is possible you may go far in the world. the one's who never try may never know and for that will fall behind. You are the only one on here who talks sense and for that i applaud you :)

ps: Very Much thanks from Xillius200 for believing it to be possible instead of just shooting it down :)

ps2: It takes a true person to not give up and takes a less person to give up straight away so never give up :)
[G1 Android Development] xencor:
DA did not write his own drivers. "Cracking" and using existing drivers is not nearly the same thing, nor is using a loophole in a PS3 memory chip.

Again, i'm sorry, but you just have no idea what you're talking about.

As someone else has pointed out by now, it might actually be possible to get webOS on an android phone, but that's only because the drivers already exist, not because cyanogen and XDA are gods and can do what you're proposing.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
I am not calling them gods writing different drivers seperate to a device is possible and DA did write some of his own drivers for the psp for addons and linking to the pc. Also to gain access to the memory he had to make a device and write a driver for it that devices already came wth a driver but he wrote his own. This was a different person XD

And i have had enough i am out of here dont know why the hell we are argueing you do not know much about android either so leave it at that and keep the forum open :)

I here by cease this fighting going on and say good day :)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
I think they should put Iphone OS on the android rofl

PS: Lets lighten up this thread instead of being nobs yes i have called my self a nob because i was being a bit of one so you lot admit it too and also I want Megabass on here won't happen though XD :)

Also as Ace42 put it who would actually use this?

Ace42 is the smartest one out of all of us :)
[G1 Android Development] jmhalder:
I'd absolutely flash it, I probably wouldnt use it Day-to-day, hey, i wouldn't recommend ANY of the roms on this site to the average consumer for a number of reasons. (lack of easy OTA updates, bugs, warranty, etc)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Yeah definatley not to a consumer XD

Well I hope it comes out someday so you can use it :)

if not save up and buy a second hand palm pre they are porting android over to it and it seems to be going well XD - So best of both worlds :)

I wonder if nokia n900 runs webOS it runs everything else :( - Kill the nokia n900!!!!!!

[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
The palm pre is a cool phone but is very small and I can't play my favorite games on it with such a small screen.I played with one at a sprint store when it came out and would like the card feature to be on android.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
I see as to why you don't get one. You have a point it does need a bigger screen.

Why can't a multi OS phone be brought out :(

[G1 Android Development] :
oh, haha megaboss and nob are ork stuff.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:

I'm not a warhammer player but my friend is though :)

I play half-life 2 and Call of Duty XD

Also to your sig or garok89 quote at the bottom how about a g1 that runs openmoko 0o XD :)
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Sheesh. I can't believe this thread still lives. Look, like I said originally: In a word, no, it's not possible. It doesn't matter why--WebOS is never going to run on any of the Android phones currently on the market. Just accept that and move on--or at least continue this conversation over in General or Q&A.
[G1 Android Development] :
well, it's possible, of course somebody would basically have to have a pretty large team of experts and they'd have to write everything especially drivers from scratch. That would take way too long.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
XD if you read last few posts we have gone of that topic lolz seems more of a mess about thread seeing as though it is not posted in the Q&A is XD - Now it has deteriated and everyone should just use this for chatting ;)

Now we are talking about palms, apple, warhammer and orks XD
