[Legend General] jokeyrhyme:
Thanks. If this device ever becomes available in Australia I think I will still consider getting one.

While the bug is still there, I don't think very many (if any) multi-touch gestures care too much about exactly where your fingers are. For the pinch gesture, it really only matters where your fingers are in relation to each other.

It sucks that there's a bug, but there's nothing we can do about it. And it's really a very nice phone in every other aspect.
[Legend General] beetleman:
Well, I didnt find this bad, and I am using it big time, internet, photos and stuff :), so bug can be bug, but it is not bugging me :)
[Legend General] beetleman:
Here is a picture which I take for review of pinch to zoom:
[Legend General] Ace42:
No, there are no bugs in a Legend. :p
[Legend General] dekeijzer:
Multitouch is as brilliant as it is easy. When 2 points on a touch screen are pressed. You get 2 X and 2 Y coordinates. Problem is, it is impossible to know where the actual fingers are at this point. There are 4 options for each finger (2 x and 2 y combined)

As you can see in this example, the light blue dots are your fingers. The dark blue dots are the other options for the software to consider. The lines illustrate what x and y range the software will get to determine where the fingers actually are.

Luckily, it is very rare for people to put their fingers on the screen at the exact same moment. Which gives the software a hint for where your fingers actually are.

And for most gestures (like pinching) it doesn`t matter where the fingers are.

This the type of capacitive touchscreen that is used by HTC. Apple however has a far more advanced type of touchscreen that uses more sensors then just x & y. The touchpad of a MBP can detect up to 11 fingers and still is very accurate. How many the iPhone can detect I'm not sure, but it certainly uses a more advanced touchscreen then HTC Android devices.

Don't see much going on here related to Tomtom.

I have Tomtom 7 running on my Tilt, with maps that are getting dated. I see that TomTom has new maps out.

Anyone purchased them yet? I'd hate to get them and then find they don't work. TomTom never has indicated that they support the Tilt. I'm presuming I could get HTC Tytn II.

Of course a more important question: Anyone find USA/Canada maps? I don't see them available on their web site (which is what I have read over and over in the past, but people end up with them from somewhere...and no, I'm not asking where to get them illegally).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ZenJim:
TomTom 7?

I'm a newbie on this site, as I just got my new phone. I have a Tilt 2 and i saw your post about having TomTom 7 on your phone - i have NOT been able to find the app, and I do not want to pay for AT&T's navigator service. Can you tell me where i might locate this software? Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Philux:
Please try searching before posting. Read this whole thread....

As for the maps, those can be purchased through TomTom's web site.

Try using google and search TomTom 7 qvga!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ZenJim:
Apologies Philux-X, I saw ewingr's headline and thought from his post that this was a scarce topic. Thank you!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ewingr:
They do not list USA/Canada maps for Tytn II (I think that is what I would need to order forthe Tilt); they have always denied that Tomtom will work on Tilt. If I purchase them and then the don't work they will not reimburse.

I sent them a message before posting here asking if I can get maps, and have had no response.

I like their product, but I may abandon them when I finally decide my maps are too far out of synch.

So i have a HTC magic from voda and i dont have a data plan with it

i would like to disable all incoming data that uses 2g&3g and whatever else that will get me charges...so the only way i can receive data is through wifi

is there anyway i can do that

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] devbro:
Call voda phone and tell them that you do not want any data communication on your account. They will disable data communication on your account and no more worries for 2G and 3G usage costs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Fred Doolie:
Yes, I searched and couldn't find an answer.

This is what I'd like to do:

1) Back up everything on my phone.

2) Flash and play with different ROMs

3) Flash back the original ROM.

4) Restore the system to what it was..file by file EXACTLY what it was.

Now, before you say "SPB Backup", I'm using that. It works very nicely but it doesn't do a "true restore". It only adds new files and overwrites updated files. It doesn't delete files that aren't in the backup image. So SPB isn't quite what I need.

I wish to find a BU/Restore app that will put the system back *exactly* the way it was. Add new files, overwrite updated files and delete files that aren't in the backup image. IE: A "true restore".

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
I don't think any backup utility will erase files for you; you need to do it yourself. If you want something automated, it's pretty easy to write a set of mortscripts that will delete all of the crap you want to get rid of regularly. It would probably take you an hour or two to get a script that would deleted a hundred or so files.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] TechnoHippie:
There is indeed a way to do this and as you said SPB Backup won't do it.

If you want to stick with SPB - then there is SPB Clone.

http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/clone/

There is another one that came out recently Sprite Clone

http://www.spritesoftware.com/products/sprite-clone

I've used SPB Clone quite a bit in the past and it's always worked great. I have Sprite Clone but I haven't tried using it yet (no need at this time) - but this one might actually be better because it supports wm 6.5 and I don't think the other does yet.

There is a trial version of the Sprite Clone one here: http://www.spritesoftware.com/products/clone/clone-trial-request

and a trail version of the SPB clone one here:

http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pocketpc-software/clone/download.html

So that's the good news. The bad news is how much it costs - yer lookin at 300 bucks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] dav3ywrx:
I use SPB Backup but just hard reset the phone before using the standalone restorer.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
You know, you should try out sk tools backup (comes with sk tools). I've used it a few times recently, and it will remove files that weren't present during the original backup procedure. I've seen it remove links in the startup folder and also remove files from the root of the storage system. I'd say it's pretty close to what you want, and you may already have it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] big_cheez:
I will second the motion for SK Tools Backup. Once you make a backup file it copies an exe to the same folder for restoration purposes. When you need to do a full restore, hard reset your device and run the backup program that was created along with the backup file. It sets EVERYTHING back to the way things were.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jokeyrhyme:
Does anyone know what advantages (if any) the new radio has over the old radio? An official/leaked/speculative changelog from HTC or some other expert? Anything?

For example, are there some known issues with the old radio that the new radio fixes? What are they? Does the new radio improve the performance if the device in some way (battery usage, CPU/memory usage, etc)? Is it simply the end-of-life for the original Sapphire radio and they want us to be using the Hero one from a future support perspective?

The basic question I am asking is: why is there a new radio version and what makes it so special?

I've done some reading today and I realise that certain custom ROMs require the radio to either be old or new, so obviously you have to have a radio that matches what your ROM is expecting. I'm not asking about that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Wond3r:
I have the same question. Im not sure if downgrading my radio will cause me to lose some reception or anything.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
The new radio/spl combo mostly change how the phone's internal storage is allocated to different partitions - system vs. userdata vs. cache. Without it it's hard to fit the system files of a sense rom on the system partition.

I do seem to get better gsm/3g reception on the new radio though, too - but YMMV.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Wond3r:
Do you think it is worth it to downgrade? The only reason I am thinking to downgrade is because it looks like there are better roms for the old radio, specifically the CM5 ports, like the one by alan.

Any more input?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] march83:
i downgraded to run cm5.07-stable (not alan's "version" though, i just installed cm+gapps+bcrook+o/c710). my gf's phone is still running new radio so i put the NR version of 5.07-stable on it and tbh i can't tell the difference without really poking around in there.

also, i notice that now i'm running old radio again i seem to have more issues with the phone not picking up 3g in areas i know there's 3g until i cycle aeroplane mode. i assume this is radio related and that it's a real phenomenon and that i'm not just imagining it...

but yeah, i think if you're already on NR and aren't sure, i'd try the NR CM5.07 version which i'm sure will soon be replaced by 5.08-t1 at some point. that said, using the radio changer tool is so freaking easy that it makes bricking virtually impossible so i guess you can't lose either way...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] albert emmer:
okay i have some issue here. after upgrade rom it seem i cant send mms.

is it because of the radio version?

As what i know radio can be specified whether to use GSM or CDMA reception.

not all country use GSM or CDMA as their default reception.

so is that because i use wrong radio version?

how can i know or found the right radio version, for example for GSM?

anyone here have clue...?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] keinengel:
The radio version doesn't affect the phone's ability to send MMS. The Magic only works on GSM/UMTS - flashing a CDMA radio would probably brick your phone.

You probably messed up your settings. Call your provider.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stolenphot0:
i've been trying to find this answer - but does old radio with Froyo have a working camera? I know new radio doesn't. When I look at Froyo roms with 3.22 radio they don't mention if camera works or not.

Does anyone know? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheForgotten:
Yes they do, the froyo roms for the 3.22 radio do, but it's really not because of the radio, its the kernel that their using for that radio for froyo. The kernel has some good advantages if im correct but it also has its cons.. Correct me if im wrong.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stolenphot0:
thanks! looks like I'm going to downgrade tonight :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] albert emmer:
thanks kein for your answer.

but then when i try dialing *#*#4636#*#* and find phone info, and go to the "set preffered network type" it is always pick "WCDMA preffered" as default. i know that magic only use GSM, then i choose GSM only, but when i try to set up 3G on my APN list, the phone goes back to WCDMA as default.

so my guess is if i want to use 2G network, then choose GSM.

otherwise, WCDMA as default for 3G.

but im not sure by sending/receiving MMS use which network (GSM/WCDMA).

any clue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] keinengel:
It should be WCDMA (same thing as 3G or UMTS) if you provider has 3G. It doesn't matter if you use GSM or 3G when you're sending an MMS, as long as you the right APN settings.

[General Questions and Answers] valkryomnia:
I've been browsing websites home to UIs, theme makers, and forums like XDA... however I can't seem to find a UI or app that allows me to create or use animated themes.

By animated, I dont mean blinking backrounds, or car wheels spinning as your background picture.

I mean a theme that's buttons actually are animations or movie clicks.

For example, if you have a new text message, a banner will slide onto screen.

I have seen the wm7 themes for Throttlelauncher and WAD 2 have animations when some things are clicked, but from what I know, it is based on a code that blinks the images quickly. I could be wrong, or have no idea what I'm talking about.

Anyways, could anyone out there refer me to a UI that allows this, or a page that shows me how? Thanks!
[Nexus One General] mazzarin:
Hi folks,

If I root the phone, will I still have the option to return it within my 14 day window? Google/HTC state the phone should be in "like-new" condition, so I'm assuming yes, but I'd like to hear it from someone on xda :)

Just want to be sure of my options!
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
No guarantees man... if HTC checks the phone, they may not accept it... or they may overlook it. You're taking a risk. Just wait... rooting can be done anytime. For now, make sure you're keeping the phone and that it is dust and defect free.

I just picked up 4.1 from the market on my G1. For some reason it kept force closing and saying I was 70000meters away from where I am. I even uninstalled it and rebooted. What I ended up doing was running RA recovery, entering the utility area and then using the experimental permissions fix.

Walla it runs smooth and seems to load up pretty fast. I'm on my phone and on the run. Just wanted to let others know that it does work despite all the rambling in the comments on the market. ;)

Hello everyone

I would like to spread the word and inform everyone that Haykuro is looking for some $$$ to get N1. He did a lot for Android development and we are where we are now in part because of him. Check out his pledgie and donate a few bucks if you can. I figured if 50 people donate $4-5 he can get N1 easily.

*Disclaimer: Steve did not ask nor endorsed me to post this. I am not associated with him in any way. I do appreciate what he did for us though and what he still does behind the scene. I too donated as much as I could (which is not much). Please don't post negative comments here, if you don't have anything nice to say - please don't say anything.

Thank you for taking time to read this.
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
You've made a thread on behalf of someone you don't know, asking all of us to give our money to someone we don't know.. someone who mysteriously no longer owns the last phone given to him for free, who we have no reason to trust, and who ran away from this forum in a mood after people realised he wasn't all he was painted as.

No offense to you, but this is pathetic on a whole new level.

Haykuro may have done some good work on rooting the magic, but he is not the all-conquering god of the scene legend has built him up to be. He can buy his own phone just like the rest of us.

inb4 don't have anything nice to say.
[G1 General] jubeh:
Someone we don't know? Haven't been around long enough, have you?

The way I see it, there were (and still are) many, many others less deserving "devs" around filling their pockets with the stupid contributions. Steve pretty much got a2sd started, along with other improvements that are now standard on some roms (remember when cyanogen used to pack htc ime, camera, etc on his roms, they were originally steve's findings).

He wasn't like the copy/paste devs that plague this forum now recycling the work figured out by others, or much less, a scumbag like drizzy.

But, I have to say I agree with you saying that if he wants it, he should buy it himself. I've never been a fan of the donation things. Just don't undermine Steve, because he's done far more than most here.
