[Android Software Development] sniffle:
ok guys, i need some help. and knowing me the answer is staring me directly in my face, but i need it pointed out to me. I am working on compiling from AOSP, and have eclipse set up to compile from AOSP everything(that i know of.) when running make build type everything is generic, i'm trying to compile for the device specific. what do i need to do to setup make to compile for the droid, nexus, magic, or dream. do i need to compile my own kernel?

what is happening is every time i go to push an .apk (that i have compiled) to my phone and reboot i either get a boot loop or a black screen so obviously something isn't right.

to give my steps up to this point.

i have followed the directions as set on this page: source.android.com/download

as well as the directions set on this page: source.android.com/using-eclipse

i also had to do a few other steps to get everything running correctly on ubuntu 9.1 (sun-java5-jdk in particular)

i can edit the source and no errors are present in eclipse, so with my logic i feel like i am missing something with make or in my set up somewhere any help would be greatly appreciated.

edit: mods if this is in the wrong place please move it where it should go. i took a shot in the dark guess :-)

make runs without erroring out.
[Android Software Development] sniffle:
i've made a little progress today as i am working on this at work. where my problem is coming in is that the sholes board isn't supported by lunch in any of the repo's that i have downloaded(master tree, android-2.0.1_r1, android-2.1_r2, android-2.1_r1) does anyone know where i can get that info or how i can set it up?
[Android Software Development] sniffle:
reading more into the documentation on: source.android.com/documentation/building-for-dream, it mentions unzip-files.sh in the htc vendor directory. only one problem there isn't a motorola directory. does the unzip-files.sh script in the htc directory work the same for the motorola droid? i'll have to try it and see when i get home. if there is a differnt or better way to do this i would definately appreciate it.
[Android Software Development] bmfc187:
id doubt it, and i cant say my way is a "better" way, but if nothing else you can just adb pull the files from the droid manually...

Anybody has the Magic splashscreen similar to Hero and Diamond's one? I'm talking about this one, with the Magic logo.

Check this thread. If it's the one you're looking for there's a download link in post #10.

Hope this helps :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Themes and Wallpapers] marco.it:
Regards, it worked. I have a problem flashing the second splashscreen, in fastboot mode I use:

fastboot flash splash2 mysplash.rgb565

The command line says:

writing FAILED (remote partition does not exist)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Themes and Wallpapers] marco.it:
By the way, i also tried with another command code, adb push boot.gif /system/media/boot.gif and I get an error: read-only file.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Themes and Wallpapers] swissp:
I can't really help more as I've never tried to change it. What I can tell you for sure is that there is no splash2 partition and that on my HTC Sense ROM the boot animations are located @ system/media/bootscreen/. By the way, if you get a read-only error you may try to do adb remount first.

Currently running Super D 1.8 after trying out a few of the Eclair ROMs (each shows promise but they're a little buggy at present). One thing I liked about Eclair is the Settings menu.

Hey Folks,

Is anyone aware of an existing program which would allow you to run WM2003 inside a virtual machine on newer devices? I think it would be more useful than trying to run Windows 95 etc!

If not does anyone fancy giving it a go? My programming skills don't make the grade :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pwvandeursen:
Hi all,

I just stepped over from windows to android, through the Nexus one, and really happy I did.

There is however 1 thing I am missing, and have looked everywhere but can't find it.

On my windows phone I have the program Pocket Keyboard (http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard2.php) which enabled me to change any key into either any other key or a string of key. i.e. when I log into a site I would like to use my standard login name through one keypress, and not have to spell it out completely.

The question thus is, is there a way of remapping any of the keys of the virtual keyboard.

Thanks in advance

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cntrlaltdel:
Although not the exact answer you are looking for, this will work for what you are trying to accomplish on the Nexus One.

Follow the file path: Application Menu - Settings - Language & Keyboard - User Dictionary

Then select the menu key, select the add button, then type in the "username" of your frequently used logins in the Add to dictionary prompt.

This works well for me for this specific issue.

Hello,

I own a HTC diamond II. Just yesterday, I've noticed a long line on my screen which appears to be a scratch. However, I'm not sure if it is. When holding the screen and looking at the line, it's like rainbow colors appear. I'm not sure how to really explain it. I tried moving my nail back-and-forth on the scratch to try to notice a scratch but I couldn't.

Is there a way to fix it?

Thank you

The Market would NOT show any Paid Apps unless the SIM card you are using is from an approved country.

I have a US based account, I even have a USA sim card, and I am good to go with Google Checkout. But I do not want to swap sim every time I have to look for something in the Market.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 3rdcoast:
I have an (unlocked Rogers) Magic. Running latest cynaogenmod, matching bc kernel, RA-sapphire-v1.5.2H, home++ and had been fine through the Rogers 911 'crisis' but have now had data cut. I have another Magic to get back on data in "24-48 hrs" so in the meantime I want to freshen up the unlocked Magic. But I want to be certain before I jump into this again. A radio update worries me as that is where I'm most likely to brick.

currently on the unlocked Magic::

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0010 (SAPP50000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

In December I did the one click root, RA recovery and kept up with cyanogenmod.

I don't care if I have Sense or not, just a fast and smoot experience. The SD card is partitioned with 32M swap, 512M ext2, FAT32. The swap helps but so far I'm not pushing apps to SD since I still have room.

So can anyone point me at my safest method or am I at the best already? I ended up with a brick when I tried going to Cursorsense so I'm not sure what I did wrong or if my phone wasn't suitable the way it was at the time. I've bought a new phone and am now back to where I was.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
Hi all.

Highly experimental app I've been working on. It basically uses the accelerometer and ambient light sensor to handle gesture events.

Current features:

- Wave to answer

- Wave to ignore

- Autolock when dark

- Turn to unlock

- Shake to save

It works well on my Fuze, but I'm not sure about other HTC devices.

Also, it needs the .NET Compact Framework.

Any feedback, let me know!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NCHEVYHEVN:
Awsome!

The autolock feature is a bit touchy on my TP2. Even on the less sensative setting it still will autolock on and off. Not a feature I want though so no worries.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
Thanks for your feedback, all!

About the speakerphone feature, I have it added in the latest version. If anything comes up that needs fixing, I will add that, but otherwise you should see an update later today :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kryptech:
Sorry I never got back to you about the PoC gesture app earlier.

I've just tested out this new experimental app - cool idea!

I was able to get 'Wave to answer' and 'Wave to ignore' going easily enough when the TP was on my desk and on a chair closer to the window. I had to wave a couple times to get the desired response but found that if I move my hand across the light sensor for about .5 seconds around an inch above the phone it was pretty consistent.

I couldn't get the 'AutoLock' working consistently. If I cover the light sensor with a piece of paper or put the top 80% of the phone into a cloth bag it doesn't lock. A few times when I was covering the light sensor with my hand the lock screen flashed up but disappeared again without me having to unlock it.

It took a bit to figure out how to unlock the lock screen but from watching your YouTube video and playing around I can do it easily. It seems best to grab the phone between my thumb and index finger with my thumb on the lock icon (so it is green). Then I flick the bottom end of the phone quickly 90 degrees and back. It is harder to do when holding the right way up - it seems that the bottom end needs to have the motion rather than the top end.

'Shake to Save' is sweet, however, it was inconsistent for me. I'm not sure if there is a particular shaking orientation that works best (it is hard to tell in your video). When it worked it was quick and easy.

At about medium sensitivity the average light sensor reading is around 14 when sitting on my desk on a cloudy day. If I set it on a chair closer to the window I get an average of around 25.

I am using ChangeScreen - a g-sensor orientation flipper: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=468488 I've set an exception for 'gesture' but it hasn't seemed to helped (well, it does prevent the Gestures app from changing orientation when I tilt/shake the phone).

Nice experiment!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
Thanks for the feedback.

The sensitivity does not affect how much the light reading is, nor the G-sensor sensitivity. It has more to do with how much of a light change counts as a gesture.

As for shake to save, the program currently uses the Z vector to tell if its shaking. This is pure force (up/down) of the phone, but it's been very hard to activate even for me.

I'm going to switch it to X or Y once I get ready to release the new version, just to make it easier.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kryptech:
I feel silly asking but the Z axis runs along the length of the phone, from the mic end to the speaker end? And the X axis runs from side-to-side, while the Y axis is the thickness (screen-to-back of battery)?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
Here's a diagram. It's for a wiimote, but I guess its the same principal:

The important thing to note is that the X and Y are based on rotation, while Z is based on G-force (gravity) pulling on it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ebweiss:

Probably should test HD2 support sometime soon :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TeDeV:
It would be really cool, if we could program this feature for each application in the phone.

for example in Manilla, if we gesture from left to right, it should go to the next page.

if we gesture from right to left, it should go to the previous one.

if we gesture from bottom to top, it should go down to the quick links, etc.

what i mean is that we should be able to program the moves.

the problem is that my idea needs the front camera, and ur code is using the light sensor.

by the way, when i say "gesture" i mean move ur hand away from the screen. not touching it.

another idea about the light sensor would be the time u keep ur hand on top of the light sensor. for example...

if u keep ur hand in front of the light sensor for 3-4 secs, it should ignore or mute the call. if u keep it for 1-2 secs, it should answer the call.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
There is no way of accurately detecting direction, since I can only read Lumans from the light sensor.

If Windows Mobile devices commonly had front cameras, I would use that, but only a few European devices do, and I have no clue how to use them in .NET.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] segun_aduba:
This is insanely cool.

If this app gets done right it could be a smash hit in the market. I don't know who would not want to have such a feature to easily browse / navigate through their phone interface and apps, providing they have a front camera.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] janneman22:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaxbot:
Again, this was a very experimental app that never worked well in the field. The app can only tell how much light is around the device, preventing it from knowing if it's pocketed, held in a hand, or just passing some shadows.
