be cautious

after using this morph my vending.apk (market) would always FC after downloading an app would never install even after reflashing cm and pushing the vending.apk from gapps epe54b i had to nandroid restore back to before when i morphed this theme to fix my problem not sure how or why it happened ive never had any problems before with older versions of this theme/morph since neatchee started making them when branden was slow with updates hope next release doesn't have this issue i love this theme :(
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kitsunisan:
All you had to do to fix the market is go to settings-applications-manage and go down to market. Uninstall updates and it will fix it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] abrixxxx:
really?

wish somebody would have told me that before i tried like everything to get it to work thats is one then i didnt try but if reflshing CM didnt work why would that ? j/w
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Papichulo06:
If all that's missing is the .xml file then I'll go ahead and insert it into the .zip when I get the chance. I've been lazy waiting for someone else to do it but you can only wait so long.... :-)

Will update with a edit later.

Okay, here it is.

I've replaced a couple of icons.

For some reason the Market still ForceCloses when trying to install an application after applying the theme but this is easy to fix. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Market and then click on "Uninstall updates". The next time you restart your market it will ask you to agree to the terms and now it wont ForceClose! :)

Enjoy! :)

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
Metamorph has been updated in the market; fixes force-close issues. Should i apply the morph again? I already applied it like 5 times because it kept force closing - so i think it is now fully applied. But I still have black text for the carrier and media on the notification pull-down bar... will this solve that? And is there any harm to the device applying morphs several times?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kitsunisan:
Is there a black lockscreen morph that would work well with kspec? I miss the black sliders from manup's theme.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ronald Pagan:
Parts of the theme install but other parts don't. Specifically the top task bar does not change. No new battery icon, no colour change to black. The only aspect that does change is the font colour of the clock to white.

Applying framework-res.apk just hangs. Applying statusbar does nothing except reboot the phone. Only changes that work are the icons.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Papichulo06:
Make sure you have MetaMorph updated. I like to use Screen On to keep MetaMorph alive while applying a theme to avoid any interruptions. Make sure you don't try to do anything else while the theme is applying. And MetaMorph seems to be a little finicky so try applying it again if it doesn't work the first or second time. If you have any issues PM me so we can work it out and post a resolution on here. :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
Well, like I wrote in my post same thing happened to me but I was a able to get the complete theme by just repeatedly applying the morph - I'm just concerned that may harm the device (but there is no evidence of anything wrong)

Did you get the metamorph update from the market? Did the hanging and force closing still happen? The update was supposed to address this problem...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Papichulo06:
No, it shouldn't harm the device. If you don't feel comfortable though just remember you can always flash the original CM5.0.6 on top. Or wipe then flash.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ronald Pagan:
Using metamorph version 1.9.8.3 which I'm pretty sure is the newest version.

Basically I can get all of the theme elements to apply except the last one subtheme: framework-res.apk

It just stays there trying to apply the theme. Phone is functional but I have to use a task killer to quit metamorph. I have killed all other applications and tried to install. No dice.

How long should this take? I'm at about 5 minutes in this current attempt.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
I'm just a noob but I've had some success, you can open the theme file and delete or swap images you want to include... Not sure about the lockscreen sliders though...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
did you go to the market to see if it flags an update? my metamorph is version 202

just apply the theme several times that worked for me...

i just want to know now that metamorph has been updated should i apply the theme yet one more time - and will this change my carrier and media drop down text to white so i can see it better!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] slaughterah:
hey, im trying to install the kspec through meta morph, ive never used metamorph but i got it from the market, but when i extract the files from the zip it cant see the .thm file only the folders, i checked in windows and the .thm file i there. Checked through andexplorer and it can see it as well, why cant metamorph see the .thm to apply it? Any help would be appreciated.

When i extract it, it says the theme file could be corrupt but it only flashes up for a quick second.

Someone please help me, i always support developers by purchasing apps, please help so i dont have to refund the app.

EDIT: ive tried converting the .thm file to .xml with the convertor, but it only applies certain things and I thought kspec has a black status bar?it went through and applied all 15 and the framework-res.apl. Is that it? Does that mean its working?

How come the download doesnt already come with the .xml? is it because we want people to purchase the app not use the free one?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ronald Pagan:
It says in the market that 1.9 is the most recent version for both the free and paid app.

I'm using the free app. Is that the problem?

What is the difference between the two metamorphs?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
dont think there is a difference, only that the paid version helps support the developer.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Papichulo06:
Download the morph that I updated a couple days ago. I included the .xml that was forgotten out. Look on page 16.

Enjoy!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paraglider1982:
It's bit strange but the morph doesn't work for me on e.g. market although it is done but the new images aren't displayed.

The rest is morphed properly.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] fitsnugly:
This seems to work on 7t1... I'm using the successions services.jar tho, so take it for what it's worth
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] irishrally:
Sorry, answer is above. Was going to ask if this works with 5.0.7t1.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paraglider1982:
No it's not I know how to do it and use the right version.

Vending is also processed but the graphics don't appear.

EDIT: Got it myself now
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tr2ride:
Please help cannot install

completely fresh install of 5.0.6cm

have installed morphs in the past

have metamorph and metamorph pro

downloaded version from page 16 that contains xml file

metamorph allows me to select the xml file but there are no sub themes listed

I've made sure everything is on the SD card in the android themes directory

Very confused - don't have access to the older metamorph that worked off the .thm files .....

Suggestions appreciated
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kitsunisan:
That's true, I'll give it a shot, thanks for the suggestion. Anyone happen to know where they're kept? Would it be Launcher or framework?

*edit* Framework. It's just a drag and drop into the Android Themes folder, under the appropriate theme. Easy as hell, I love Metamorph.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bryce2010:
Upgraded to the latest metamorph and changed it to the slowest setting... but still the carrier text and media notification text on the status bar drop-down is black - not a big deal but just wanted to let people know...

Does anyone know whether the YC-A300 adapter (like this here)

works with Touch Pro 2, so that one can charge and use headset simultaneously? Unfortunately I couldn't find TP2 on the compatibility list.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Yes, it came in the box with mine ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Bombenbach:
Thanks for information :)

Then I guess I'll buy me one :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fone_fanatic:
My tilt2 didn't come with one :(

But i think my fuze (raphael) did because i have it and its working fine with my tilt2

(this should be in the accessories forum too...)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bllmsm:
I too have one, and it works very well. I found it in the box
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] panos123:
Hi all,

Recently I dropped my beloved phone and now there's an unsightly dent in the corner and the silver border (euro version) is really badly scuffed. It still works though.

But I like my devices pristine so I can't stand to look at it now!

Tbf I can still get £150 for from one of those phone trade in companies.

And can sell an old e71 for just under 100, which can go towards a new different handset.

Or is it at all possible to refurbish anywhere and then attempt a higher sale? I'd rather not wait weeks/months though.

Please offer any advice.

Thank you.

Ibelieve you can buy replacement screen/front cover. I seen a couple posts with links to ebay for them.

I'm not sure if thats the damaged part, but that is what I was talking about.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fone_fanatic:
mines got the same thing, dent/scratch in the top right corner, but it just adds character :D

i know if i fix it, i'll just go out and drop it again.

Maybe you could just put a case over it to hide it and protect it from future damage?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] panos123:
Thanks for that but unfortunately its the whole silver shiny border thats ruined.

Stupidly i did the opposite. As soon as i dropped my phone i was in such a piss poor mood i just put it in my jeans pocket. I was cursing the stoopid fiddly case!

So aswell as the corner dent, the silvery bit started to peel away. Funnily, every other part of the phone is still in perfect condition.

I doubt any personal buyer would be interested so i think im just gonna give it to Envirophone or other.

Better than other situations where i could've lost it or internally detsroyed..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
You might be surprised!! Put a post up in the marketplace section, you might just find an interested party ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] InRBigness:
Why not get another one and save this one for parts. That way when you drop the new one and scratch the back cover you can already have a replacement.

Can anyone give me their thoughts on the t-mobile version of the touchpro 2

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] akashastrega:
As a TmoUS TP2 user, I gotta say, I love mine!!

I had such a love affair with my Wizard that when it died, I took my time getting another device. The TP2 was the choice I made and I have been a happy camper!!

The touchpad is a nice size, the keyboard is well designed, and it has a nice amount of power and space to serve my needs.

And for the record, I took 2 different Droid devices for a test drive before getting my TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Ditto

Other than the anti-establishment 3G bands it uses, most of the differences between the Tmo model and the others is cosmetic; it doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack (which I don't miss thanks to my stereo BT), the reset button is accessible without removing the battery cover (:D:D), and the keyboard is a little different too.

I wasn't thrilled about the styling cues of this model at first, but they've grown on me...probably due largely to the fact that the black hard case I have on it now covers up all of the brown, and much of the bronze as well.

I don't know if this is the version I would have bought if I'd had the choice of any of the GSM models, but now that I've had it for a while I'm not at all wishing I had any of the other ones :cool:

I flashed the newest Radio that released with the ERE36B release. If I want to go back to the one that released with ERE27 version can I just flash it with no issues?
[Nexus One General] St.Jimmy!:
I've also been looking for an answer to this question. Maybe somene can help us.

Also, where did you find the ERE27 version? I'm looking for it everywhere and can't find any link to it.
[Nexus One General] plasmadragon007:
You can flash it in fastboot, But there is always a risk of bricking when flashing a radio so always double check the md5sum before you flash the radio image. I found both ERE27 and ERE36B radio update's over at this website http://android.modaco.com/content/g...-online-kitchen-optional-root-insecure-himem/ . Hope this helps
[Nexus One General] St.Jimmy!:
So once you check the radio file integrity with its md5 checksum there's "no risk" of bricking it right?
[Nexus One General] inffy:
Well there is always a risk. If your phone gets stuck on the update it will propably brick the phone. Just make sure you have either good battery status or your phone is connected to the charger.
[Nexus One General] St.Jimmy!:
http://android.modaco.com/content/g...-online-kitchen-optional-root-insecure-himem/

There are several files in there and I'm not really sure. Obviously, I'm not going to take such a risk having a great community of people who know what they're talking about.

So, if I have ERE36B and want to downgrade to ERE27, is this the correct file I have to flash? The thing is I'm not sure because I'm reading all this "update" stuff everywhere and I'm now pretty confused. I'd appreciate someone's 10 seconds to check it out for me. You'll understand I don't want to mess up with radio stuff. Thanks :)

Could you post your results of downgrading once you have the chance to realize if there were changes? I was also thinking about doing so.

Thanks.
[Nexus One General] cypher21:
I've downgraded from the 36 to the 27 radio because i had LOTS of issues with calling over BT carkit. (ppl could only hear my crackling voice)

once flashed back, issues were gone. So waiting for an official radio update and won't flash the leaked radio again.

I didnt notice any drops in 3g reception
[Nexus One General] gospeed.racer:
I have all 3 at the root ready to flash. I switched last night to the 4.03 from the 4.04 and will see today how it works out. Still a lot of switching between e, 3g, and h at the house here.....

I have been reading around the internet that it is possible to install a linux shell on the g1, they installed debian. I was wondering if there was a way to do this using the my touch. I also read some where that someone installed ubuntu on there g1 ext2 app2sd partition.

if anyone finds instructions or comes up with a method please post back.

thanks.

What would be the point? It already runs a linux shell.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
Ok...in order for me to keep Android on my Touch and not go back to Windows Mobile, there MUST be an offline GPS solution for Android. By that I mean GPS software that reads maps from the SD card and does not need a data connection on the phone at all; like TomTom does on Windows Mobile - it has all the POIs stored on the SD card (including their phone number) so I can get directions, look up numbers, and directly call businesses from the GPS app without ever needing any internet connectivity. I have a 16GB card, so storing maps of the whole USA won't be a problem....did it just fine in WinMo using TomTom...

So, does anyone know of a GPS application that can do this for Android? Having to connect to the internet for GPS maps (like Google maps) is just unacceptable, especially since GPS has been free through satellites for decades now. Bottom line - I just want GPS to work like it did on Windows Mobile...no data plan needed, and maps stored locally on the SD card. Easy and fast.

If this is not possible then it is very apparent that TomTom on WinMo is far superior to any Android GPS solution, and I will be forced to switch back.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
MapDroyd......
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
http://www.mapdroyd.com/
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
it says you have to download the maps through another program called "ContentDroyd"...this defeats the whole purpose of making this work for phones without a data connection.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
the newest version of contentdroyd will allow you to download them from a computer instead of through the phone. then you put the maps on sd.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
the latest version of ContentDroyd is still just an APK file, so how do you download them on your computer? IS there a public site that has the map files?

Also I read that any vector map format can be used in their compressed map format...does this mean I can use the nicer and more complete TomTom or Garmin map files somehow?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Sometimes you can find public sites, yes. I'm happy to post it if that's within the rules, I'll check. Then you use adb to install it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
I can transfer files directly to my SD card over my USB cable, that is not the problem...I just need a site that has the map file. I can download and transfer them myself manually. Also - why would it be against the rules since the maps are freeware?

-edit-

Their site just has a list...no download links.

http://www.mapdroyd.com/map-android-more

This is so dumb, why are they trying to hide how to download it, even on their site, when they fully allow downloads thru your phone - makes no sense
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Sorry, I didn't mean the maps - I meant the newest mapdroyd and contentdroyd apks so you don't have to download them. You could then install those through adb.

Does the GPS even work well enough with warm donut? I have gotten it to work a few times, but most of the time it struggles to find a signal... :mad:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
GPS works fine in mine. finally got GPS to work in RLS3 of myn's Warm Donut, but only after I installed GPStest and rebooted. Now I get locks in 30 seconds on a cold start

Anyway, I cannot find the SMD files for the UnitedStates, and if this thing doesn't even do turn by turn directions, then why was it made? Just so you can see a dot on a map? Whooptie do. Android is looking less and less attractive the longer I use it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] seanmcd72:
Ok I take it back, I just updated my radio to 3.42.5 and looks like GPS is working better than ever! Not sure about not having a dataplan as when I had Windows, it always made an internet connection at first?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
No, that is my point...you never needed a data plan/internet connection to use GPS. GPS has always been free up until a few years ago when cell companies started tying data into it through what is called A-GPS (assisted GPS), and also so they could provide local 411 listings, etc. The GPS chip inside our phones works fine by itself to get directions, and do routing and turn by turn, etc (which is software based). No internet connection is needed to use GPS, and it shouldn't ever be.

Ok, my rant about phone companies muddying up true GPS is over...I fear that Android will never be as powerful a Windows Mobile was with GPS. People who think Google Maps and programs like Copilot are great GPS apps, have no clue what they are missing.

my experience tom tom and destinator both worked much better with agps. i used both
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mirth18:
Android on the touch is a work in progress. It is a hobby by fueled by enthusiasts, and given that it has come a LONG way in a short time. You shouldn't expect things to "just work", but often they do. (and IMHO better than WinMo.)

Also you are trying to compare a commercial app (Tom Tom) to a freeware alternative (mapDryod). This doesn't mean that it is inferior, but you usually have to pay the cost in time instead of money. Learning and tweaking the application that might not "just work" out of the box.

If Android on the touch isn't working out for you, then feel free to jump in and help get things working. Trollish comments and demanding functionality on threat of dropping Android doesn't help anyone much.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
I am not talking about "Android on the Touch"...I am talking about Android in general - NO Android phone in the world can have GPS that can even come close to matching WinMo's available apps. - no complaining here, just a fact now after my research.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
better, hmm...yes technically - in terms of getting an initial lock (15 seconds with a data plan, or 30 seconds without data....big deal. once you had a fix it stayed fixed until you rebooted or went into an underground cave or something (came back the second you walked out). Anyway, I have my answer to my original post...might be back on WinMo in a week or so. Bummer.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mirth18:
Still trollish.. I for one find the tone of your posts to be unnecessarily aggressive, arrogant and unhelpful.

If you think that WinMo is better, maybe you should go back to using it?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crobs808:
I have been 100% factual in my statements. Offline GPS routing and maps are not available like they are on WinMo.....that is what I wanted to know when I posted this thread, and I got my answer. I am sorry you don't like the answer.

Besides, I already said I might go back to WinMo in a week.
