I am looking for a simple easy to use Facebook import program that can import the contact photo. Would like it to work on the actual phone, not syncing on the PC.

I've tried and most of them seem to have issues with .net 3.5 not being seen or somthing. They give the error "please upgrade you .net to 3.5", or not found, or we don't have a message for you.

I am on a RYANMOGUL wm6.5 light rom for reference. If you have something let us know!!!

cheers

Hey guys,

Just flashed a new ROM today, first ever custom ROM. However, it comes with Office Mobile 2010 Beta. Is there anyway to downgrade Word, Excel and Powerpoint to the previous version? If so, is there a CAB to do so?

Thanks ^^
[Nexus One General] bcpk:
Hi.

New Nexus One owner, longtime XDA-developers fan.

I had a rather unrealistic idea I thought I would share with you : an OS dualboot.

Essentially, the second operating system would be extremely low power and would be used in those situations when one requires extended battery life and the most basic phone functions.

Basic concept :

Light-weight operating system

White text on black background (saves battery on AMOLED)

CPU underclocked

Basic SMS and dialer

GPS data accessible

That's about it. I reckon it would be useful if one were out in the wild or were lost and without a handy power source.

Sadly I am completely ignorant of what sort of programming this would require, and it's certainly beyond my own skills (rudimentary C++). I have read that Debian has been installed on G1s, so I suppose it is at least theoretically possible.
[Nexus One General] OrganizedFellow:
My own quick solution would be a Nandroid backup, and restore.

It's no dual-boot in the sense of having an option to select upon initial boot, or reboot, but it's easy, takes some creative setup, and endless combinations.

Thanks for the idea, I never thought of doing this :)

good job, but in the screenshots under the manila section, there seems to be some kind of overlap in the color of the text in the taskbar, so could you please post bigger screenshots to avoid any confusion or is it just my eyes playing tricks on me?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Jackasaur:
Is there a way to change the silence icon on the lock screen so it makes the phone go into vibrate mode rather than no noise at all?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bmj1086:
I was thinking about this a while back.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AC!D:
download silent mode jammer from the market...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Jackasaur:
Oh thanks. :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jerrycycle:
I did the silent jammer and it will not let the phone go back to the previous setting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dynasty314:
can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to put android on my vogue
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slaming:
go to the vouge android forums here i would recomend that you do a nand flash because it will be more stable but only if you can live with a slightly buggy build and no winmo but android is getting more stable everyday, but from what i read nand flashing is getting more stable everyday so good luck, unfortunately with a touch hd i don't have any experience with nand android flashing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] fone_fanatic:
I know a lot of people have been looking for it and I just noticed it is now available from HTC's Support site

Enjoy

:)

Just flashed and its got the following:

ROM 1.59.502.3 (67150) WWE

Radio 4.48.25.20

Protocol 61.39tc.25.30H

OS Build 5.2.21849 (Build 21849.5.0.63)

Just trying to get an idea of how much it's actually being used as a day to day os on devices designed for WM
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mikentucson:
no my battery doesnt last that long. mostly probably do to the power management problem. once that is fixed and everything runs pretty smooth, i plan on using it 100%
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] trd-nismo:
i try to use it as long as i can. so i live it charging all the time wen im home. other den tht i use 6.5 :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] davidebeatrice:
the same here...:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] also1989:
i don't use android 70% of the time yet. that is because i don't have a data plan (thank greek carriers for that!! :mad:). i try to find, download, and install apps from my notebook but i don't find many.

i'd say i "play" with android up to 20% atm. but when wifi gets up and running i might use android all day long.

thank all the devs who make this happen!! keep up the good work guys (... and ladies)!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mikkelnl:
Nope, but only because we have no powermanagement and sound - for now... I'm hoping these two issues will be solved one day, but i have NO idea if it ever will be ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] BobbyManifesto:
yep. i can say that i use it 70% per day or even more.

switching to winmo only when the battery is low or when i need to charge it ;p

Other than that its XDAndroid as long as possibile :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] fastguebo:
about 25%

i like to keep on window os because htc sense have more information at the screen with out going in to any apps than any os out there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xxjoshuaaxx:
Same. My battery life is five hours or so. That's longer than the iPhone 3Gs so if other people can do it...I am sure we can too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] BobbyManifesto:
agree with U joshua :) on mine it is pretty much the same as on yours (5 to 5,5 hrs)

what ive discovered just a moment ago- i dont need to charge batt when im launching Haret to be able to charge the phone while using android (lol) i just plug the extUSB (pc or wall charger- doesnt matter), n after couple of secs it displays info on lock screen that the phone is charged.. :D

so actually it is charging ( no iritating green or orange led :D )

is it only on my Rhodium?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zapbrannigan00:
At the moment only running new builds to see what's new.

Will dual boot when wifi, hw3d are finished, will make it permanent when sound and power management are done.

Android on the TP2 is the perfect combination that just wasnt available when the TP2 was launched and my contract was up for renewal - Hi-res screen + keyboard :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] petard:
How do you people do this? 5 hours is nothing. I won't even consider it until there is power management and sound.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xmckinzie:
No need for sound if I'm at work. And I get to play with it at work...plug it in just before lunch and all is well.:cool:

Not to mention, I can freely flash whatever WM ROM I want and not have to worry about MMS and text messages not working.

Android has been my first choice for messaging, emails, browsing and apps for over a week now. I only use the WM for conference calls and YouTube.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bonevbs:
not yet... but once wifi power manaement and opengl are there i plan on using it 100% too...

i play with itg though from time to time and i must say before 2 months i never would have imagined it would be there this fast....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ged92781:
I agree. I really need for the sound, power management, wifi and bluetooth to be working 100% for me to use it more than I do on my Touch Pro 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DavidMc0:
Once Wifi, Sound and power management work, I would consider using it more than WM, but without these features I can't utilise my phone properly.

There's been great progress in a relatively short time, so perhaps this will be possible within a few months... though by that time I might have another phone :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
on alot of devices with xdandroid, things like gps and camera dont work. if everything worked and it had the prettyness of 1.6 with sense and all the features of 2.1 like navigation and live wallpapers, i might just switch. especially with the ui changes in 6.5.x. i have a feeling the next android phone htc releases will not be such a collaboration with google so it will have sense instead of "the google experience" and it will be wvga as all htc devices are from now on. so i think we will have sense then.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] iridium21:
I probably run Andriod for about 20 mins every time there's a significant new build. Not much point in a phone that doesn't have any sound :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Toleraen:
As others have said as soon as power management is in, so am I. I move around too much during the day to leave it plugged in so as soon as I can get ~12 hours on a charge I'm sold.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] donniesd:
Same Here!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
just give me accelerometer support to play abduction and ill never leave. i have the newest adroid running on my old tp and i its so fun.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Born_Immaculate88:
I am using Android 2/11/10 build with the newest zimage from 2/15/10 and it is great! I love it, cant wait for a fully working version with wi-fi, power management, bluetooth, and a fix for the few other issues.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buffalosolja42:
I like android as well but..

but when it comes to getting stuff done in a work enviroment I use Windows, for playing or showing what I can do with my phone I use android. Android is a nice OS, I just feel that windows mobile dropped the ball with app support (and free at that) and that is why every other mobile OS has surpassed it. But Android is nice I use windows more but I am almost split on which to use (when android port if finished).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CommanderThor:
This Thread just did some part in convincing me to buy Droid instead of TP2:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
yeah but the keyboard on the droid is unusable. id say just get a phone like it without keyboard but you really dont have much choice with a cdma carrier.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] familydzwork:
I'm using the current Android build 100% on the HTC Touch Pro II (T-Mobile USA Version); the biggest reasons for me using the Android OS is the Browser, APP store and Google maps (Android version).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] alexxxcore:
I use it about 70% of the time. Unfortunately the battery drain is the biggest issue. I mostly use it because it runs more smoothly than windows does haha. Not to mention that My Location/GPS rarely works on my Energy ROM or any other non-official ROM. No Android FTW!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Viperal:
For the past 3 days I've been using android more than 70% of the time. I switch back to windows mobile to charge; also when I go to sleep.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Why would you buy a Motorola over HTC???? Just for an OS? ewwwww.....

We are just about to get some GREAT power management implemented. Had a tester running his TP2 unplugged in an experimental sleep mode overnight and got something like only a 20% drain with push mail going the whole time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
i still say the moto droid isnt worth it. yes its quite a thin slidey phone, but the keyboard isnt worth it. they could have made the dpad much smaller like tp2s and stretched out the keyboard to a useable size.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jach707:
I use winmo 95% of the time. Android is just a novelty for me to show off how powerful my phone is. It is really cool being able to dual boot into different operating systems. What other phones do that? But where the Android develpoment is right now its not very usable as a phone, you have to be able to hear your calls coming in. As a media device you can't hear your media. Web browsing experience is basically the same across the two platforms its really limited to your connection edge, 3g, wifi, and the processing power of your device. I still give winmo the edge on browsing because I can go to

xda

and download the latest cab or ROM straight to my sd card. You can't do that with Android or even the iPhone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] l3it3r:
winmo is still the main OS on my phone. Android is coming along VERY nicely though and will eventually become my primary OS when GPS and Sound are fixed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] joshts0:
The touchscreen issues annoy the piss out of me.. how hard it is to hold down the the click and etc... its hard to delete icons from teh main screen for example. I still use it most of the time though. I reboot it to windows over night.. or if it freezers while I'm trying to do something productive
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JJHiemenz:
Not even close to 70% yet. Once power management is there, I think I can commit to using it more. I can live without an audible ring as long as the thing will vibrate, but only having a few hours of juice really isn't good for practical use.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
i show people abduction and they cant set my phone down. it still sits in winmo most of the time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rrsaylor:
for applications try 4shared.com. then search for apk files. there are a ton on there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jekku:
I will definitely use XANdroid once the sounds, gps and power management are working.

BIG THANKS to the devs who have made it so far already! I love you people!

This is way better than WinMo; not to mention that WinMo won't be getting any better in next generation but just worse.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] x10dude:
Android on the TP2 is definitely COOL!

But in reality yet close to being used for long periods at a time. Right now it's still in the novelty stage.

Yeah, it may be old and not very popular anymore but everything still works using Winmo...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
That's the funny thing, stuff that's supposed to work on WinMo, doesn't. Granted, there is some stuff I have to switch to WinMo for. Lately, the only reason I have been switching to WinMo, is to use BT for my JVC car audio deck. I cant keep my phone on anything but vibrate at work anyways, so sound isn't that big of an issue for some people. It all depends on how you use your handset. Personally, im so sick of WinMo crashing every time i send a SMS.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] x10dude:
I don't know your situation or the particular ROM that you may be using but my TP2 works basically for 97% of everything I want. Yeah, there are always niggling issues here and there, but everything usually works.

The prospect of running Android full time on my WinMo device is certainly enticing... but realistically the prospect of running a completely different OS on something that was not originally designed for it probably won't be as fast and smooth as a real Android phone.

Considering that you hate Winmo and it's absolutely not working out for you, sounds like you'd be MUCH better off just getting a dedicated Android phone instead of waiting for additional revisions of this Android project. Guaranteed it will work better than the current Android project.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Im a Microsoft certified tech, and I code in c++ a bit, and am going to school for Computer Science. I never said I didn't like WinMo I used it for YEARS, and have backed it. It does things that no other Mobile OS can do, its like I have a small PC in my pocket (hence the name). I just think if they are going to have the best paid programmers, that they should code like they are the best. Not put out this dinosaur OS that crashes, and is laggy ALL the time, when there is a open source OS that shows them how it needs to be done. WinMo 6.5 is nothing more than a finger friendly upgrade, and if you dont use Sense, and use just the regular WM home, its not very much different from the style of interface that I had on my Tmobile MDA SOOOO many years ago.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] XanderCorp:
Yeah WinMo, isnt completely awful with HTC Sense, but once Opengles, the GPS, Camera and sound is fully working in Android, I will most likely use Android almost 100% of the time. But my guess is theyve still got a long while until all thats working.

Of course not, it's not as smooth nor as fun to me. LOL

I don't mind it, but if I could OC the CPU then I probably would use it when I'm at home, but other then that noo.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
its getting to that point. Yeah, my windows TF3d is faster than ever now, but having the choice of OS is even better. only 1 thing holding back from using fulltime and thats the sound issues, which they wrking on. even still, as long as phone on me or nearby, using Android OS is no prob for me. I can still call and txt and recieve them. then i just set it to vibrate since sound aint wrkn yet. it vibrates whenever i get a txt, call, or notification. wifi works. wifi tethering works. data works. ok, lets say we did have sound but no data or internet, then everyone will be screaming about that. The builders are getting the essential functions first, the device being able to work period. then all the other stuff will follow. Based on what ive read, theyve come along way in a short period of time plus doing this all for free. yeah, not having sound yet sucks, but id rather have it be able to make/recieve calls and data wrkn first. u have to remember, it aint like the the Official Android/Google developers are helping. They doing this all thru research, hands on , and reverse engineering basically.

can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to put android on my vogue
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shabicht:
I just went through this, couldn't get it to run off the SD card but i took the plunge and flashed it and it is great! I used Myn's warm donut rom in 240x320 and stored everything on NAND.

there are pretty good instructions on the rom page here If you click NOMOROOTFS under installation it will tell you how to flash the android rom, If you have flashed a rom before it is simple (just replace the NBH with the one from here ) rename this one RUU_signed and flash as normal (note your radio should be up to date or android will not work properly)

Then just follow myn's instructions, hold volume up and follow the prompts

sorry not very clear directions but the whole process is a little wierd

hi guys i just flashed my G1 wit the hero rom but it lags a lot and the applications don't load fast so how would i speed it up i have 2.1 firmware.:)
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
I assume you have King's or Eugene's Eclair hero/espresso?

If your comparing it to a Donut rom then thats why you might think its slow.Also having 200+ apps open if too much so you should get a task killer.If you dont have a swap partition then that might be adding to the slowness.The 2.1 hero from King is as fast as a donut so unless you have alot of widgets it should be fine.
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Question in a development forum + Not enough research done + Ignorance of Search bar = Junior Member.

Whts done is done. So u cud flash one with a 10mb hack. Try a 1.5 sense, cuz the eclair has no gpu acceleration as of yet so perhaps thats why you are finding it slow. Use a taskmanager to frequently close running applications. overclock to the max using a market app such as overclock widget or setcpu.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Hero was not the rom if you wanted speed.... fail
[G1 Android Development] :
hahaha speed? hero? hahahahahaha
[G1 Android Development] SJJTJJ:
overclocking?
[G1 Android Development] VoLoDaR1:
okay everyone the best way to speed up any rom is to have a class 6 sd card it will run much faster after you get one check out my vid here is a link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIeT6vpqvh4
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I'm actually pretty sure the best way to speed up hero is to not run it
[G1 Android Development] VoLoDaR1:
lol true but all the hero roms i run run smooth no lag but i also have a mytouch3g which is wayyyy faster than a g1 but still before i got my class 6 card they laged on me
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
It only has more Rom not Ram:p

I have 4 only dont think I need a 6.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Same processor and same RAM, why would a myTouch be any faster? I'll put my overclocked G1 up against a MT3G any day of the week. :p

That leads me to my next point about making a Hero ROM faster. I would definitely install SetCPU, overclock it, and decrease the CPU usage at which it will upscale it's speed. That dramatically increases performance.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
But if you have thres hold too low it will scale when not needed.If battery life is a concern you want it to 50-65. If you have a 2600mah bat then go ahead and try 20-50.Dont make it 528 all the time either, use 128 while sleep and 128-528 while on charger or batt.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, absolutely. I have mine set to scale at 50%, and that seems to produce good results.

Kingklicks is quite fast, but I dont think it is as fast as MLIGN's. Definitly not trying to say who is better or does more work. Hell, MLIGN only does the hero ROM and older firmware at that.
