You're right, I was informed about the "do-it-on-your-risk"... and I can't accuse anybody. What I want to do is to put an additional warning" BE CAREFUL, DON'T DRAIN YOUR BATTERY", there are enough warnings on this site of people that got in the same situation like me. Take care of our friends!:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Holy Bear:
See, that's cool. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] popab:
That's cool... but unfortunately the icon on Android doesn't really show you when the battery goes off... that's the point. :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Have drained my phone fully MANY times with Android, WAYYY too many to count, and I have never had it kill any hardware. Being on this XDA Developers web page, the "warning" should be unspoken. As many have said before, WinMo does not let your battery drain down all the way to 0%, Android does, therefore the handset will not boot, until the battery has stored enough power again. This is easily fixed by plugging it into a WALL Charger, not a USB Charger.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Rajinn:
wow... i thought it was just your average "whoops, bug" moment.

whenever it happens to me, i simply unhook the usb from the phone, hit the reset button on the phone, let it boot all the way into wm, then plug in the usb... it works fine after that.

best of luck
[Touch2 General] gangstar:
let's try to mention all problems found and solutions if u have one!

i'll go first!

1.

p: gprs/3g settings not remembered after soft reset.

s: use htc connection wizard and no more problems.

2.

p: mp3 ringtone not ringing sometimes even with patch.

s: use a built in ringtone :P

3.

s: manually select connection type in each app

4.

p: mega froze vibrating and showing someone calling, no buttons worked and touchscreen was making a sound when typing, needed softreset

It began when I received a MMS...this was a second attempt MMS because the first one wouldnt download so I told him to resend it...the second one didnt work either but ever since the second one it says I have one unread text...I tried deleting both of those MMSs and nothing...then I did the s/w update that was just released and still nothing...now Ive deleted all my messages and its still there!?! Its not a big deal but its getting a little annoying...any ideas?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaFatB:
I assume it's the same problem as with my X1i I had once. The message box is showing an unread message, but in fact all messages have been signed as "read" or it looks like there is a hidden message you can't mark as "read".

In order to get rid of this I used a tool provided here on the forum which removes that issue so use it and please give feedback if it worked out:

good luck mate !
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
its not a bug. it says unread text because youve not recieved your mms yet. i had the same thing. its still waiting for you to receive and read it, until you download and recieve the mms you will still have the alert. have you checked your mms settings? make sure your account is set up properly. the first mms i get on a phone is always a pain, but after that they should all work fine. i had to manually click on the notification and download it. it came through in the end.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_a_n_payne:
Thanks...but after I installed it nothing happened...am I suppose to do something after its installed or does it just fix it?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_a_n_payne:
Actually after doing some searching I am guessing that the program just adds the option of marking all as read and ive done that with no luck...plus ive deleted the whole inbox and still nothing...

I believe it is a bug because I received a mms correctly the day before...which was my first one... and I also manually clicked on the notification...I waited almost two days for it to come in before deleting my whole inbox...so I guess Im just stuck with my phone thinking Ive got 1 unread damn message...ugh
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_a_n_payne:
Actually I think this program is now making my phone freeze up over and over...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_a_n_payne:
Soft reset really helped! But it didnt get rid of the 1 new text...lol...but now my phone is much faster and just overall much smoother...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
you originally said that the first mms wouldnt download and he sent another one. until you download and read all the pending mms then it will continue to say unread. clearing your inbox wont make much difference since the message isnt on your phone its stuck somewhere out there on the network and your phone knows it lol. but i think they expire after 14 days or so. you might be able to reduce the expire time in the mms settings menu.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_a_n_payne:
Oh, sorry I meant I got the very first MMS correctly...the second ATTEMPT on the second MMS is when the one unread message began to stick...but yea it will probably go away soon...should I change the validity period to 1 day? Or 1 week?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
try it at as short as possible. hopefully that will clear it. if not, then you can try a program like "pim backup" to backup all your messages and contacts then completely clear all your accounts on your phone. you can then just do a restore to put all your messages and contacts back afterwards...

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] joebednarz:
Question about setting up my Pure... I am using (rather happily I might add) PocketPutty for WM to connect to my hosts back at the office.

Well, there is no installer for putty and therefore, it is not registered within the OS. How can I add a shortcut to putty.exe on my "Programs" tab? Whenever I try to "Add" a shortcut to a program, putty does not show up.

I'm using the stock TouchFlo installation.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ycavan:
I would recommend getting total commander to make shortcuts easier... but if you're gonna use the stock file explorer:

1. click-hold on putty.exe to bring up the menu

2. select "Copy"

3. navigate to \windows\start menu\programs

4. find a blank spot & click-hold

5. select "Paste a shortcut"

Now, you can add it to your programs tab

navigating to the windows folder may take 4 years, s'why I recommend something like total commander.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] riverer:
Hey guys really need some quick help.

Sold my diamond phone with 6.5 on it and the buyer is kicking off because its not got touchflo.

Whats the quickest/easiest way of putting touchflo on a 6.5 flashed phone?

If I still had it i'd be easy but I need to try and sort it by email :mad:

Cheers!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
Tell whoever you sold it to to shove it up his you know what! You obviously only had a 6.5 Titanium ROM on it when you sold it. Tell him to come to this site and flash a ROM that has Manilla himself.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr.horndoctor:
Just tell the buyer how to flash the shipped rom. ;)

Hi, guys, maybe i am stupid, but i cant find a link where i can download Death SPL :mad:

Please help, thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
DON'T.

We call it the "deathspl" for a reason.

And there is NO BENEFIT to it.

If you want to use a ROM that wants to use more than about 65MB in the /system partition, just move some files into /cache and symlink to them!!!! There is no reason to risk your hardware for something this pointless.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe333x:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
And risking a brick doesn't help you run it.

As I said, just move the overflow files into /cache. Fits just fine unless you're a retard.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe333x:
Or instead of moving anything you can just read this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=625886 and not have to move files every time you want to flash a ROM. Trust me if you follow the guide you will not brick your phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Trust me, sometimes even if you DO follow the guide, you'll STILL brick your phone.

The SPL you are recommending is simply NOT COMPATIBLE.

And no, it does not cause you to need to move files every time you write a different ***SYSTEM IMAGE***.

(Hint: The word "rom" does NOT APPLY)

I curse that stupid kid "haykuro" every time someone recommends this "deathspl". It has had TWO effects, neither of them positive;

1) Creates BRICKS,

2) Creates INCOMPATIBILITY.

*** if the various cookers weren't lazy douches, they would arrange files to be suitable for REGULAR SPL, and therefore there would be no issue of "this system requires XXXX SPL"....

It has been a TERRIBLE DISSERVICE.

Note: It is TRIVIAL to write a script to automatically REPAIR your various ill-conceived "update.zip" archives.

i.e.: (this won't work exactly like this, requires minor debugging, but to give you the idea...)

#!/bin/bash
unzip update.zip
mkdir -p update/cache/app
mv update/system/app/(a bunch of .apk's) update/cache/app
echo "(a few trivial lines to write /cache and create symlinks" >> update/META-INF/com/google/android/update-script
zip fixedupdate.zip update/*
java /path/to/testsign.jar fixedupdate.zip

Just run that on every update.zip that you feel like installing!!!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scholbert:
Well...

Hey!

Concerning deathspl...

Well said.... and agreed 1000%

So called deathSPl for HTC Dream is nothing more than engineering bootloader 1.33.2005 from HTC Sapphire.

Of course these devices are similar but not the same...

I know that this works out well for some, but it's also obvious that some like to mix it all up :rolleyes:

Personnally i would appreciate to use some clever hacks for the original evironment to run modified ROMs.

Regards,

scholbert
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe333x:
Actually not one person that has followed that guide has bricked, I have read every post in the thread seeing as I am the one who made the guide and the brick percentage is at zero. Why call people who make ROMs for others to use lazy? They create ROMs on their own time for free so that others can enjoy them. I really dont see the need to do extra work every time you flash something when you can simply flash the Danger SPL correctly one time and then you will be fine. As far as incompatibility goes I dont really see why that matters its no one right to be able to flash a certain ROM. If they want to use a ROM that requires a different SPL then flash the SPL if you dont want to flash the SPL no one is forcing you to just use a different ROM its as simple as that. The devs on here work for free and they are free to make requirements for their ROMs if people dont like that then they wont use that devs ROM but as you may know many people have been willing to switch SPLs to use a certain ROM.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
You are definitely dense.

IT IS NO EXTRA WORK!!! I just PROVED it to you!

And I call them LAZY because they ARE.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe333x:
I could be wrong but running a script every time you update seems like extra work to me even though it maybe trivial and easy to do so is flashing an SPL one time. If they were lazy they wouldnt be cooking ROMs for anyone. I could say that anyone who doesnt want to simply flash an SPL is also lazy, but its just their choice not to just like its the devs choice to not do extra work to make their ROM not require a certain SPL. Its very simple you dont want want to flash the SPL then dont and dont use any ROMs that require it. If you do want to flash the SPL then just follow the How-To and you will be fine. There is no sense in arguing about it there hasnt been a Haykuro brick from anything besides flashing an old radio, so simply dont flash an old radio and you wont brick, very simple.

[APP] brightbuyr: Barcode Price Comparison Application - Works in US & UK [13 Apr]

Hey everyone,

I'm currently in my final year at uni, and part of the course is a project where I basically have a develop a piece of software. My choice was an Android shopping price comparison application ala ShopSavvy.

You may ask why I decided to create an application, which a working version already exists. Firstly I did this for the technical challenge, and didn't really think I'd be releasing this publically. I've decided though that there is a good chance that I'll release this. Second is that my application has an added feature which allows users to contribute to the database!

Currently it has nearly all the features that ShopSavvy has including searching, barcode scanning and price alerts. I've tried to keep the UI standard Android as much as possible, and I think it runs a bit quicker than ShopSavvy. Currently it's UK and US only, but I plan to make it more global friendly as soon as possible. It's also Donut (1.6) or newer due to me using some Donut only features (Search mainly).

BETA Released!

I've released a beta onto Android Market. At the moment, it's only available in the UK and US but will be available for more countries soon.

QRcode for Market Link:

http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.brightbuyr.android/

One thing I would like to feedback on the application. Just general stuff really but focusing on:

Users of HDPI devices (Droid, Nexus One, etc) on how the layout looks

General bugs (FCs, ANRs)

If you'd like to give feedback on the beta. Please do so on the following link, it's only a very short form:

Thanks ;)

I have made gifs for a custom boot screen and have been playing around with getting it them to work.

I flash over the previous bootscreen it reboots, my images show but then when they are meant to be animated the image gets scrambled and makes no sense, i did rather cheekily just replace the .gifs from someone elses custom boot screen and signed the zip file.

does anyone know whats going wrong or can anyone point me in the direction of creating the files to go with the gifs so i can get this working.

Cheers

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tristan202:
They need to be in indexed 255 colors. And they mustn't have any transparent layers. Then they should work just fine.

hmm this is annoying, i have my gif files all built nicely but not using indexed 255 .... does anyone know of a tutorial for converting it without loosing all animations? im searching the net at the moment but no luck :(

It works through all the frames.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jonny#1:
just used gimp under ubuntu, opened the animations selected image >> mode >> indexed flashed my boot files and they are still not displaying right, beter as you can see part of the animation playing but its far from perfect.

thanks for everyones help so far though :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] seyer0686:
Hello, first post here. I am having the same problems as jonny in creating a custom bootscreen. The first frame of my animation will show before it scrambles. Iam using photoshop. I created my animation in imageready, imported to photoshop, made an indexed 255 color palate and went back to imageready and loaded the palate. I feel like I'm missing something obvious.

BTW, I love this forum. You are all great. I am learning so much. Recently created my own lockscreen, and after I can get the bootscreen down I want to try my hand at the taskbar icons :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jonny#1:
I swapped to GIMP image editor (which is 100% free) to actualy animate my gifs in indexed 255, i did it in photoshop but it didnt work for some reason even when using indexed 255 colour.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] seyer0686:
Okay, after much fooling around, I finally got it to work properly :D. In case anyone cares, here's what I did:

Created the animation in PS (didn't realize you could do animation in PS and didn't need IR) to how I want it to run. Once it looks exactly how you want it, click "Flatten frames into layers". Now delete your original layers so all you have left is the animation frames. Save PSD and open it in GIMP. Go to file, save as, and save as a gif. Click the "save as animation" and "convert to indexed" (that is the key right there) bubbles, and click "export" then save.

Viola! now more problems. I can't figure out how to post it as a gif, but it is the boot process from windows xp.

I used to get it all the time when on "topix" ROM's and using X2 task manager. I just closed it down.

I don't see it any more now that I'm using xannytech evolution ROM and its built in task manager.

Don't know if its related or not.
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
Xpopuptoast is the messages (sms).

If you look at it, the icon is the same for "Start" which is HTC messaging.

A toast is a infomation popup, so when you get a message, and you don't close out of it properly, it is xpopuptoast that remains in your in task manager.

so simply, its htc messaging when you get a new message.

Don't worry about it.
[HD2 General] Beatkeeper:
Thanks for the info guys
[HD2 General] atjong1:
I got the XPopupToast process in my task manager right after installing MobilePad 2.5. MobilePad has an option to capture new SMS. I guess that's the cause of 'the toast' being opened. I disabled the option and haven't had toasts since.
