really?? because it works just like real flash for me..it loads everything, except hulu..but every flash based website i went on works..even the site to do my math homework online..even VW.com works perfectly

and my battery does not run down in 4 minutes..im using the modaco desire rom
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
What evidence or reasoning do you have to back up any of this? Was there another press confrence where Adobe said it was no longer coming out 1st half of this year? I highly doubt the Android big wigs would have been involved in a huge press demo at MWC announcing flash 10.1 will launch in the first half of this year, if it wasn't going to happen.

As well, battery life wise, it won't use up anymore than downloading and playing a video does. Sure, you are not going to get 12 hours of non-stop streaming flash, but media testers reported about 4 hours of non-stop youtube(Over WiFi), which is the same as the youtube app.
[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
Probably the same thing that happened to the "second half of 2009"

The last statement they made , "its almost ready, were ironing some bugs its very exciting" was pretty much the same statement they made like a year ago when they first anounced it and every time in between. Nothing has happened since they first set a release date and they haven't said anything differently to make me think any subsequent release date has any significance. wasn't there something about htmls rendering flash pointless? I know nothing about that stuff that's just what I remember being a hot topic for about a day...
[Nexus One General] firedup:
Does it handle the videos on the BBC news website and iplayer?

How is the quality?

Any chance of posting up a video? ?
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
No flash site that is real video works aside from YouTube. (Real video meaning footage taken with an actual camera, with real people -- ie not drawn stuff or cartoons etc)

Hulu, cnn.com/video, BBC news, gametrailers.com, etc, none of it works.

The only flash that works on Flash Lite is ads and stuff that is drawn in flash like games etc.
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Not saying it will or it wont be out. But Adobes reputation is on the line.

If they dont get this out and working smoothly by the time the new iPhone is announced theyve basically let Steve Jobs slap them across the face without a response.

Im sure Google wont be too thrilled with Adobe if it gets postponed yet again. Flash could be used as a major selling point for Android.
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
Thats what I am saying too... the Google Android team held a press conference at MWC along with Adobe announcing/promising flash first half this year. If Adobe doesn't get it out, they will have pissed off Google a lot, to say the least.
[Nexus One General] firedup:
Its odd that some if the demos on YouTube show the Nexus playing 10.1 videos like BBC website with no problems yet the MDC ROM isn't able too.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
That's because the people in those videos are employees of Adobe ;)

(Hint: That's Flash 10.1; Desire ROM has Flash Lite)
[Nexus One General] larsdennert:
I'm still on WM and waiting for the N1 on Vzw. I use Opera Mobile which has flash lite and it works pretty well. Zoom in, click to run content and enjoy.

For full Flash and Silverlight I use Skyfire (albeit proxied) it plays everything embedded though hulu has still figured out how to block content. Maybe Skyfire will come to Android.
[Nexus One General] Part Four:
That's not Flash 10.1. It's Flash Lite.
[Nexus One General] Part Four:
Go check their website. They're developing it right now. Skyfire will probably land on Android before Flash does. Skyfire was amazing for me on my old T-Mobile Dash.

Hello,

there is any way to reinstall the active sync files to my p3300??

i think the rom is with problems, don't syncronize, can i reinstall only the files to comunicate with the AS on the pc?

its the WM6.1 portuguese rom, but maybe any 6.1files will be enought.

Thanks to all.

Cheers

Hi Guys,

Just upgraded my Vox to a WM6.5 and it's a complete new enjoyable phone, so thanks for your work & help.

However I am looking to install Skype, would you know if it work, and where to get it from, as I visited skype.com/m with my vox and the website informed me that Vox isn't supported.
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:

[HTC Vox] odiad:
Older version of skye

Hi,

in my opinion Vox is a little bit slow for skype. Quality is bad, sometimes words are only half transmitted or there are interuptions.

I use skype with tornadopowercontrol (228MHz) and even than it is not so good.

And on my Vox an older Skypeversion (I think 2.2) runs better and faster. I uploaded the install-cab to mediafire.

[HTC Vox] SweetthD3ViL:
Well yeah, I actually tried it yesterday night and the quality is crap!!!

Will give it a go.

is it possible to make the taskbar transparent like in win mobile 6.5? I have tried but to no avail
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Darkshneider:
You wanna see the insides of your phone?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tejasrichard:
i would also love this option...if for no other reason than to match the rest of the clear themed stuff.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rontonomo:
please does anyone know if this is possible
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] KBizzle:
Well i was capable of making it transparent but only when the screen transitions and you can see it is transparent when I pull the taskbar down. I dont know how to get it transparent on the home screen.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gbhil:
Probably could be done the same way you recolor it. Just use a transparent .png file instead of a colored one. Its a good idea, I'd use it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rontonomo:
do you know which file has to be changed i looked but could not find it
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chadillac0000:
I actually tried this and it did not work, just made the task bar black. My theory is that the wallpaper ends at the task bar rather than covering it :mad:. If that is true I think you would have to "fake" a clear task bar by making it match your wallpaper. I have done this successfully with solid colors, but it would be harder with a more complicated wallpaper.

Example:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gbhil:
you're 100% correct. my bad. guess i wanted it too much lol.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rontonomo:
yep i just tried to and it was black as well it was cool to see threw the bar when you pull down notifications though
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rontonomo:
i wonder if it would be possible to edit a xml file somewhere to get the wallpaper to take up the full screen. i just think this would be so cool if i could figure it out
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gajodafeira:
Hi folks.

I'm from Portugal, and i love HTC devices. I had 6 or 7 HTC models, 3 with qwerty keyboard, now i have a Tytn II. I'm truly dependent of writing SMS and e-mails, so qwerty makes difference. But the fact is with practice, you write very fast and the characters appears slowly! I changed rom, 1, 2,3 ... times! And it's slow in every rom. There are a solution for that?

[Nexus One General] anthro:
Many seem to want the HTC Desire ROM for Sense UI just because of the HTC apps and widgets. People like me prefer the Stock experience with the HTC apps and widgets installed.

Some of the reasons for this include the preference of the consistent Googley look and feel, smoother scrolling on stock apps, and many other objective and subjective reasons.

Modaco provides an Online Kitchen for making custom HTC Desire port ROMs for N1. On the kitchen, you can choose to not include the Sense/Rosie app in the ROM. This is a huge step to creating the stock look and feel. How do we install the custom launcher without the need to bake a custom ROM with the Online Kitchen? Will this also convert the overall look and feel to the stock one?

Because we can't install HTC apps and widgets without the whole HTC Sense UI framework, how do we achieve seemingly having a stock ROM look and feel + HTC apps and widgets?

*I support Modaco and recommend signing up for premium membership. I just don't have the means to afford it. To those who can afford, please consider supporting great devs by donating in ways like singing up for premium membership
[Nexus One General] paulobrien:
adb shell rm /system/app/Rosie.apk

will drop Rosie and give you your standard launcher. I highly recommend grabbing 'Root Explorer' from the Market and perusing the /system/app dir. ;)

P
[Nexus One General] anthro:
Coool!

Just wondering, great sir, why did you decide to drop Rosie? :)

edit: oops. I thought, you meant, you're going to drop Rosie on the HTC Desire port ROM. I misunderstood. Sorry
[Nexus One General] ZeuBug:
Good idea!!!

I vote for that!!!
[Nexus One General] ZeuBug:
false happiness....:(
[Nexus One General] anthro:
I was able to drop Rosie.

This can be done by simple using Home Switcher (an app on the Market) to use "Launcher" instead of "Rosie" as the Home app. However, HTC widgets can't be used without Rosie. HTC apps are fine without it, though ;)

Still a step forward.

EDIT:

I also noticed that things are still kinda laggy. Scrolling the stock app list isn't as smooth as how it is on stock or other ROMs. Probably, the lag is caused by the ROM. It's still in alpha so we'll just have to wait. Still very early now
[Nexus One General] deprecate:
I figured I was in the minority here with zero interest in senseUI. I quite like the stock look/feel of android 2.1 but can fully appreciate the user experience the widgets and such inside sense provides.

I do wonder if all of the rom creators are going to jump on the senseUI bandwagon and move away from the stock experience leaving those of us who rather not touch HTC's bastardization out in the cold :) Thankfully Paul seems to be keeping everyone in mind with his roms...I wonder what Cyan is going to do with future releases...

...this post contains zero useful information :)
[Nexus One General] FormelLMS:
Strange is, that on Hero (with SenseUI) everybody wanted a stock rom without it, and on Nexus (without SenseUI, you know) everybody wants these lame senseUI.

I like this smooth on stock Android, hoping, that Paul and cyanogen creates there good stuff, based on real Nexus code wthout anything of the HTC stuff.

I dn't know, why there is so much hype about these Desire ROMs for Nexus.

I belive it will be better to make the stock ROMs better...
[Nexus One General] paulobrien:
Why? I posted the command to get rid of Rosie, and you can do it from Root Explorer easily too.

[Nexus One General] ZeuBug:
2,5 things interesting me in Desire rom:

1) HTC PDF Viewer

2) highlight text for copy (like on iphone)

3) flash player in web browser (it's 0,5 thing, because work not well on all websites.... :p )

I hate the rest... (after test Paul roms) it's just my modest opinion! :D
[Nexus One General] ZeuBug:
Because we would like to have some sense app on stock rom! not to have Desire rom with stock apps!

You make a great work but for my daily use, there to much bug for now... (bluetooth, flash, missed app in market, etc...)

I'm sure in next weeks I could make another good try on your rom!

PS: did you see my private msg on Modaco? thanks!
[Nexus One General] GNOve:
Dislike sense UI love the stock look.

But HTC'S framework do have quite a few added extras that would make the stock 2.1 awesome all around.

one being the select text format similar to the iphone. The camera on desire is 100x way more attractive then the stock one. The htc camera makes you feel like your holding a 2010 product. The stock camera feels and looks like is a polaroid cam.

To have desire with everything it brings widgets, apps & have the stock look feel and dialer is my DESIRE.

The dialer on HTC'S is awful. I am so used to stock 2.1 contacts app is just awesome.
[Nexus One General] Iman07:
you cant run the widgets and thats what the OP was talking about.
[Nexus One General] spaceman_spliff:
I'd like to use the stock contacts and dialer because the HTC dialer doesn't let me dial out using my google voice number.
[Nexus One General] deprecate:
I'll give you numbers one and two. At least the nexus will be getting (as far as we all know anyways) full flash (10.1) while the desire thus far has flash lite...

These three are not enough to keep me stomaching seuseui though.
[Nexus One General] bradthemac:
Its all a matter of opinion on what you like. I was trying to get a lot of what the senseui does natively already on my stock 2.1 so it makes things easier for me. I can't see all that much of a difference in stock 2.1 vs. senseui in terms of how it looks anyways. Just a couple small visual differences.

The senseui has a lot to offer over stock. The apps, widgets, clock, lock screen that allows control over music, better copy and paste, browser is better, ability to call someone from any screen and not have to worry about finding phone icon, flat scrolling for me in programs is better than a 3d scroll, dark status bar unlike the white stock,

Most of this can be done through market apps and or tweaks done to a stock rom but this seems to do it better all in one. The things senseui does not have that are on stock I just move over.
[Nexus One General] GNOve:
How can you? " call someone from any screen and not have to worry about finding phone icon"
[Nexus One General] bradthemac:
I only meant that with senseui the phone icon follows you through all 7 pages as opposed to the stock 2.1 where you have to click on the actual phone icon to launch the dialer.
[Nexus One General] deprecate:
Simple solution for that really...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=630659

Obviously this mimics the way sense handles things but such a simple mod removes yet another reason to change the entire interface.

I don't find the sense ui intuitive, nor do I like it as a whole much in the same way I don't like apple's ui or find it intuitive :)

But as you said before, it's all a matter of opinion. I assume if I were to force myself to acclimate to sense, I would get used to it. This all becomes a moot point though if/when flash 10.1 hits for our phones and not for the desire/sense. People will have to choose between full flash (assuming that the desire sticks with flash lite) and sense...unless someone manages to build a nexus-centric rom with sense baked in :)

I don't have a data plan so I read RSS feeds offline (I have been using YomoMedia happily). Sometimes, I would like to read full articles. Are there any RSS reader that can trick the source into downloading the full feed rather than the summary or title? Or is there an RSS reader that downloads the full feed link in addition to the summary so that when i click the link, the full feed is available?

Thank you very much for your help!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rp-x1:
Would you not be using your data plan to download the full article to start with anyway?

Yes, I download them via Wifi and then read them offline.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] cottonpickers:
I either look for rss feeds where they supply full text. (in the UK the newspaper guardian.co.uk gives full rss feeds, where bbc.co.uk only gives headlines)

additionally I use an offline web program. Something like HTTrack.com is great as (from a PC) you point it at a website like xda-developers.com and it downloads the *entire* website onto your pc. You can then copy this to an SD card to read on your phone in Opera at your leisure

Most RSS clients act like a browser so there is no room for improvement: they get that content that the supplier gives them.

You could:

a) find a better RSS feed for a given source;

b) use feed proxy that could parse content and give out RSS;

c) use RSS reader that support custom templates (you will either search for templates or write by your own).

As some devs are aware there are those of us who need 3G disabled on Android for our devices. Using the option to "Only Use 2G Networks" does not resolve this. (edit: also, neither does the *#*#INFO#*#*)

I thought it might be helpful to create a thread about it so that if anyone comes up with a solution or if a particular rom build can address this issue (I'm not an expert but it seems like it will have to be a rom based fix? which is why this isn't in software development) there's a place for it.

I use AT&T and have validated my APN settings and tried all manner of selecting the "use only 2g" option (restarting, manually selecting networks, automatically selecting networks, etc.) but it always goes back to 3G.

This can be disabled as if I disable 3G through WinMO it works and HaRET seems to behave when I use it that way (I still select 2g only though).

Personally I use HardSPL 3.56 and Radio 1.71.09.01.

Please help us out :) Perhaps we could start a bounty -- I'd like to start with $10 for a validated fix.

If someone would be willing to walk me through a build process for their rom perhaps I can test/fumble through C myself and create a "patch" or something that can be applied to other builds. Please feel free to PM me if you can do that and I'll keep any information on this thread.

Thanks for starting this thread I am using the same phone (kaiser 130) same hard spl 3.34 and same radio.

I too live in an area where I need to disable 3g to have a usable phone, and have found the same - disable in Windows Mobile and load via haret and then android never tries 3g.

I like the idea of the reward, I'll match your $10 so that makes a $20 bounty on this one, I can test for anyone if they're trying to fix it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
There's a few different ways to accomplish this. All do the same thing but some may be easier for you to do based on your experience. I don't know if the ROMs need to be rooted but given that these are ports you should have no issues with that. You can search through my posts, the various threads or PM me if you need help with that.

Basically you are going to corrupt the (going off of memory here) /etc/apn-config.xml file to point to nonexistent APNs. You don't need to do both of these, these are just different ways to do this:

1.) Download Droidsans Tweaks Lite from Market (free) and you can use it to disable the APN, or you can just to to the APN settings and change the APN name

2.) Download APNdroid (free) and toggle connectivity

There's other ways, but giving you two options should be enough. If you are good enough at messing with ROMs, you can always just delete the apn-config.xml (or whatever it's called) in /etc (which is in the rootfs.img) and it will never connect.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] damianiw:
I don't think these 2 actually turn off 3g just the data, my problem is the 3g signal is too weak to be reliable so I need to force 2g completely, not just disable the apn
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
then can't you just get one of the various (curvefish for example) widgets to toggle 2G/3G or go to settings and say 2G only?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mayad79:
Currently only via Haret

Well the only thing I can suggest is via haret.

1. Via windows goto com manager and disable 3g, and confirm that you have edge showing and connected.

2. Boot haret and you will be limited to edge.

short and sweet.....

the speed is decent enough for me to consider a nexus or desire on ATT's 850 mhz HSDPA/4g
