[HD2 General] erebusting:
I know I may be upsetting some people with this thread and I wish to not do so, so I appologize if I am ahead of time... but I have been doing alot of searching and reading and with all of these cooked roms now, I cannot decide which one to use or which ones to try first...so I was thinking -I would like to know which ones are more geared toward Eye Candy? And which ones are more geared towards performance / stability? Is there one geared towards both? (I would like the most possibly eye candy...at least just to try it out )...

Any recommendations or anything of the such ?

Again, I am sorry if this is a bad thread to start... really REALLY do not want to upset anyone, I appreciate all the work done here -really, and I am currently studying computer science programming so I really do understand and respect the work done here and one day would love to be able to contribute, but with this being my first time back to win mo in a longgg time, I need a little advice to get back into the recent times of winMo.... please help ?

:confused::confused:

Did you check out the ROM forum? I think you could find a better answer there.
[HD2 General] erebusting:
I do not want to make a double post? Maybe the mods could move it ? Or maybe I should just start another one like this in that section ? -I thought this would be the right section since it is Q&A but maybe its just generalized Q&A ? ...not too sure
[HD2 General] Sjuust:
Check out the EnergyRom in the rom section.

He build's his ROMs with four main goals.

Eye candy ( I want my ROM to look great and for it to all flow together nicely)

Speed !!!

Smoothness, consistency and good aesthetics

Stability through private beta testing before public release

Bet there are other roms with the same goals so just flash some and see for yourself. Most threads have pictures how the rom looks like.
[HD2 General] antaed:
maybe the most famous eye candy - performance roms are energy and xannytech.

u should try both and decide which is the best for you.

personally, i prefer close to stock roms and do the customization separately.

there are several very good roms for this: dutty's, laurentius26, etc. but it's obvious which is my favorite :).
[HD2 General] madmax85812:
mumbasa!!!

i prefer having a ROM closest to stock but tweaked to best performance. n the best in tht department in my opinion wud be Miri's 6.5.X or 6.5 (i use the 6.5 as i cant gt myself to like the 6.5.x arrangement by microsft + its still far frm perfect). They r the fastest, smoothest n the mst stable roms i've used, n i've been flashing miris for 2 years nw, since HD/Blackstone days. I'v tried duttys, asian, energy, n a few more, but none came close.

as for the eye-candy part, if u r looking for simply candy, energy's the best, n performance wise is also pretty gud. but agn, personally, wat i do is flash miris n customise it every last bit according to my needs. trust me, theres a sea of customisations rite here on ths forum n is a childs play to find if u r willing to look. cus wen u do sumthng according to ur needs frm scratch, its turns out tht much better cus nobody knows wat u wnt best bt u.

hope i helped. njoi. ;)

Anyone ot the unlocked ROM Dump ?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] nikc0069:
Can someone clarify something for me.

Isn't this the unlocked rom for the x86 emulator/? As in, its not compiled for an arm processor and therefore won't work to produce a Rom as yet?

Also, if anyone knows - is the new CE core similar enough that older drivers could be used for the HD2 (for example)?

Download the Windows Phone tools put the bin in C:\program files\microsoft xde\1.0 folder and start a command prompt run->cmd or type cmd in search box for Win 7

then type

cd C:\program files\microsoft xde\1.0

xde (Bin name).bin

Emulator will run

[Android Software Development] TH3KiD:
We All Know About Voice Mail. But it costs some money and is directed to us via our Subscriber. I was wondering if there is some software which automatically picks up the phone call and says "I am away, leave the message" and save it on my phone. Later on i read em?
[Android Software Development] jgostained:
Install youmail and go to youmail.com and sign up it is free to use with certain options I have been using it since the blackberry days it automatically downloads new messages and you can play them back w/o having to do ne thing but click on it. if it is just a hang up you still get notification from them showing who called so even when you are with no signal and no message is left you will no who called you.
[Android Software Development] tomfreay:
Surely if a call gets directed to voicemail its because the phone is out-of-signal range, in which case the phone can't answer it to record the message?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] krulafix:
Hi..i've already search for a topic regarding to this, and most of the findings only talks about how to edit it or combine it and such that it will be installed automatically.However, my main question is that how would i make/create a cab file for applications which had been installed into the phone?as there are some application which i had updated it through the phone and it will take some time if i intended to install it back in case i've formatted my phone. So any help would be appreciated and if there's somewhere it had been discussed before please show me the way..thank you:)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] krulafix:
Anyone? Need some help here. Thank you.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
It's not completely impossible, but very impractical.

To "cab" (to make it a verb) something, you'd need to know every single file the program uses (sometimes, applications install dll's into the windows folder) and every registry key as well. You'd have to gather all these files and then create a new cab and import them to the proper paths.

I believe SKTools has an option to view what files a program uses.

It's next to impossible for applications that are installed through an installation DLL in the cab - it's hard to track what exactly changes when you install these apps.

Best way to do it though - find the original cab. You could try to combine cabs, but it'd get messy, best use an automatic cab installer then.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] krulafix:
Thank you

Thank you for the reply. From ur opinion it is indeed difficult to find the changes made especially with the updates involved. Thank again.:)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] sucka:
Well it is really simple, just have to know if it has any keys in the registry, what dependencies it has like any dll or other things and then you use visual studio and make a smart device cab :) ant put in there the files in the folders needed, the shortcut and the key registry you compile the cab and in less then a minute you have a cab :P
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
So this is something that kinda bothers me.

After Damage Control's V1 (2.1) this is pretty much the only thing I can think of to ***** about :D

If you're in the browser, at some random web page, and you press the search hard button... there is no damn space bar! The search button does bring up the search bar, but you have to goto the symbols just to press the space after each button. Its a real PITA.

Is this something that would be difficult to fix?
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
Uhmm I'm on Darchlegend V4, and when I hit search I comes up with the spacebar, but it's about half the size, and looks like an under bracket o.O
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
I'm sure you know this, but he (me too) is on DamageControl v1.0.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
Uhmm...... I don't....

If I could find my damn USB cable I'll post a screenshot.

Are you pressing search while IN THE BROWSER? The search works fine in any other program. Just not in the browser.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
I just nand'ed back to my 1.5 modaco rom and it is the same way... no space bar.
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
It's probably the HTC STOCK keyboard that's causing this, because in Darch's rom he has the stock android keyboard in it.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
Here's a screenie... see no space.
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
Yah that's because of the keyboard. Download the Android keyboard, and you should have a spacebar.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
yup, i just went to that cause someone requested a screen shot lol
[Hero CDMA General] bobsbobbers:
I can confirm this happens in a vanilla install of DamageControl V1.0 -espresso- I can also confirm that this did not happen with my stock 1.5 build.

Do you folks think this is a 2.1 bug from HTC that is affecting ALL 2.1 roms sporting sense and the HTC keyboard then?

Is it something that can be easily fixed in the code?
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
my guess is that it's just calling the wrong keyboard to come up.
[Hero CDMA General] bobsbobbers:
Yes. :eek:

Now, how do we fix it *facepalm*
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
oh thats an easy one...
[Hero CDMA General] Deleted member 884763:
Just press the Search button twice.
[Hero CDMA General] foxmeister:
Indeed!

The first "search" brings up the URL search and URL keyboard. It is designed for searching URLs and space is not a valid character in URL. Note that the

text in the search box says "Search or type URL".

Pressing "search" again, calls up a normal text search, and thus you get the keyboard with a space, and the text in the search box says "Quick Search Box".

Therefore, it's not a bug or an omission - it is by design.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero CDMA General] Visionikz03:
Thats exactly what i was gonna say! The first search option for websites doesnt include the spacebar cuz there is never a space is a url... therefore this is a misunderstanding of how the software functions. A different keyboard will not change how the browser's search function works. It will still by default show url searches first. Changing browsers may help...
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
BRILLIANT!

That is actually quite well designed now that I am aware!

This phone and forum never cease to amaze me.
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
I'm a little late to this conversation, looks like you guys got it figured out.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
I know this is a strange request, but I've needed this feature more than once.

I have been using WaveSecure for a while and it is fantastic, and has located my phone more than once (did I leave my phone at work or is it out in the car???) as well as retreiving SMSes when needed if I didnt have the phone, but the features are pretty much limited to that.

However, would it be possible to have remote desktop capabilities on the phone itself? Having the phone as the server and the desktop as the viewing client?

I understand the challenges, especially considering the fact that the IP addresses are dynamic. However that shouldnt be a problem.

I know leaving the server open all the time listening could cause a battery drain issue so sending a simple SMS command to open the program and begin listening as well as reply or e-mail the current IP address would fix this problem. In my experience the phone will keep the same IP address for a good few minutes so if a SMS command could wake up the data connection, and then somehow reply with the phone's current IP address that would be fantastic. If not would it be possible to port a dynamic DNS type of application to run on the phone similar to what you'd run on a PC if you have a dynamic IP address.

Traffic also shouldn't be a problem as my 3G connection on my phone uploads faster than my road runner turbo! I can regularly upload at 600-700kbps compared to my road runner's 512kbps. Plus you're only having to transmit 320x480 pixels at say 256 colors.

I know there were programs like this for win mo but how hard would it be for android?
[Hero CDMA General] superstudinor:
This is also what I'm looking for. Screencast is cool, but I would love some remote android goodness. Kinda like Mymobiler and SOTI Pocket Controller.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
Yeah, I used MyMobiler on my touch pro but that was only via USB (atleast at the time I used it)
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
BTT....

[Hero CDMA General] superstudinor:
anyone????
[Hero CDMA General] H4k3r4r34l:
http://www.toremote.com/ i think you might want to look at this maybe its what your looking for. good luck
[Hero CDMA General] JsChiSurf:
He's looking for it the other way around, at least if I am reading it correctly.

While I don't know of any pre-existing solutions, I can envision exiting tools that would collectively allow you to do what you want, there would just need to be some sort of wrapper / script that could pull it all together from different tools.

For example, PicMe, the utility used typically for screen shots, has a 'live' option to view/control your phone from your computer's web browser, and you connect to it over WiFi and/or the Mobile Network.

So, if there was a way to send a command to your phone to email you its current Sprint IP address, then automatically fire up PicMe (which can be hidden), you could then access the phone on the PicMe port (8082), to view the screen, see what is going on, or control the phone, etc.

What I don't know, and I haven't looked, is if there is any sort of scripting engine / macro tools that could allow you to utilize the existing tools to automate the various tasks. Would be cool though.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
Wow, PicMe is awesome!!! However I can't figure out how to control it. I goto the live view and it does nothing.
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
Hmm, never mind. Re-booted and it worked fine! THAT'S FREAKING AWESOME!!!

Now, the only thing I'd really need is to write a simple application that will intercept a SMS (similiar to mobile defense or wave secure) that will e-mail as well as reply via SMS my current IP address, then launch the picme application. I say e-mail because if you don't have access to -a- phone, you can SMS via sprint.com and then check e-mail for the ip address.

THIS IS FANTASTIC!!!

Thank you sooo much!
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
Keep us updated please. Would love to have this figured out :p
[Hero CDMA General] superstudinor:
let me know when you figure something out
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
If you haven't already finished the SMS intercept idea, I think the best way would be to incorporate it as some type of "firewall"... like those apps in the market. Just put some extremely obscure message into the SMS, something like "adsf;lkasdf jaeo8taupwetap0", and have the program only filter that. Just make sure the message is obscure, you don't want anyone's SMS turning it on/off!
[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
Well, this may take some time.

I haven't studied the SDK for android yet, and its been a while since I've fiddled with java... soooo.... I dunno if this is even in my scope.

Hello everyone,

Im rather new here.

I did search about 50435940 times before making this post but I didn't find what I was looking for. I have the tmo stock 6.5 rom with I think manila 2.1, anyway I am looking for the background to be transparent behind the search bar on the internet tab.

Like whats on this thread /showthread.php?t=630402 (still not allowed to post links I guess ... :rolleyes:) only for tf3d 2.1. I looked through a little bit of code on the device as well, and I looked through that cab file in hopes of finding something similar to tweak, but I remain puzzled at how to do this... or where to find the correct file to get started. :confused: There seems to be ALOT of manila files. :o

Any help or pointing me in the right direction is appreciated. Thanks everyone.

Im used to the iphone turning the screen on its own whenver i get a text message.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Nope, this is normal on all Android phones. Download SMS popup if you want a feature such as this. Quite irritating if you ask me, kinda a battery waster I would assume.

This is why Android phones usually have LEDs, or a trackball. For notifications :)

Doesn't Handcent SMS have this feature too..

Ok thank you! Its just was never around my phone or actually looking at it when i receive text messages. but for some reason today i was next to it and the screen didnt turn on.

[Nexus One General] mf.luder:
I think I may actually like this feature better. The trackball seems more subtler. Although, I did enjoy knowing who was texting.
[Nexus One General] ccunningham83:
I prefer the trackball lighting as well (I don't want the screen to light up), but on the Desire ROM from MoDaCo, when you get a message the screen lights up and you see a preview on the lock screen. Messaging application icon also shows how many unread messages on the screen. I think it is cool. I don't want the screen coming on, but I like how it shows a preview on the lock screen.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Why would you want the screen to turn on?

So everyone else can read your texts? :rolleyes:

Trackball notifications are awesome.

I just got TrackballAlert on the Desire ROM which allows you to choose your own colors.

not that i wanted that feature, but i thought it was standard for all phones to have the screen turn on from standby when getting a text....i just thought i did something to screw up the phone.
