Thanks for the answer!!!

Another question arise though...What's that boot.img file inside the Cyanogen update.zip???

And also, is there any clear architecture doc to realize how nexus one boots and which modules are involved and in which order? (like bootloader-->SPL-->Radio-->Kernel)

Love this forum!!! :D

So, I just noticed that the 'Get more HTC widgets' link is working now on MoDaCo's Desire ROM. There's not a whole lot on there as of right now, but hopefully they'll add more soon.

EDIT: Widget downloads are 'unsuccessful'.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
What htc widget's are there now?
[Nexus One General] sliverofme:
There's 8 now. They are - Battery, ringtone, profile, coin flip, daily challenge, tip calculator, today in history and dice.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
5 megs for a coin flip widget.

HTC loves to bloat the **** out of their software, lol
[Nexus One General] sliverofme:
yeah, 5 megs is a lot, but come on man! It's a coin flip widget! lol I just want the battery widget because is says 'Batery'.

I am running custom rom Rooted 2.1 v0.3.

Ever since flashing to the custom rom, when i try to push a file, such as:

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

I get the error:

Failed to copy.... Read-only file system.

I didn't have this error before flashing to the rom. Does this have something to do with superuser whitelist?

I have tired:

mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

and it didn't work and I tired:

adb remount

winch returned:

Operation not permitted.

This is ticking me off since I didn't have this problem until flashing the rom. :mad:

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media,

I get:

I installed a new ROM yesterday (the new sense 2.5 rom on htc site) and I noticed when I make an appointment and I set it to remind me X minutes before the actual event, the icon in the taskbar (a white bell) was new and default.

I use a custom taskbar and I did find the icon in notify.dll, there are 3 icons in that file - 16x16, 21x21 and 32x32. When I am about to replace the 32x32 and press OK (with ResHack) the two other icons dissapear. So I signed the file and put it back to the phone but the notifier is not working at all now, no notification popup (HTC thingy) or an icon in the taskbar.

What should I do? Help me out guys :mad:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] lexx2009:
Hello all!

Today I've upgraded to the latest official ROM, that is: 2.53.405.5(76952) WWE with Manilla 2.5.20113030.0. The main problem is that after I stop an application by tapping X it continues to run in the background. The task manager icon that was in the upper right corner in Manilla 2.1 is no longer there, and Task manager found under Start Menu does not have the settings that allows you to end programs by tapping X. So the only option is to check now end then for open applications in Task Manager and end them from here?:confused:

Can someone please help? It feels like returning to WM5!

Thanks!

Also, any opinions on the best video players for the Nexus One?

Thanks!

Doubletwist.

Download the Windows software on your computer.

It will sync with your phone, and convert divx and such videos for you.

You basically Sync, pick the video, it does the rest. Takes a LoNG LONg time.

Video Player by jeff Hamilton is a good video player. very simple.

nemo Player also works. The apk is floating around this specific forum.

The OP said DVD to Nexus One and doubleTwist doesn't do DVD to N1 (Unless its been updated?)

You simple put in your DVD press Load DVD in the program and select the video/s you want and press convert :) Pretty fast on my Quad-core/4GB so speed will depend on your PC spec.

Hope this hasn't been posted before. Had a look around and couldn't see in the searches. Apologies if it has

Obviously the phone comes with Word/Excel etc but they don't seem to go to landscape view when rotated. The same goes for viewing movies in Windows Media Player.

How can these be made to go landscape? I understand there's an app called G-Config, but when I tried to use it, it mentioned a stylus which the phone doesn't have. If someone could give walkthrough instructions I'd be mega grateful!

Just take BSB-Tweaks 1.6 and add the desired apps to rotate. The prog is a musthave anyway...

[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
WMP doesnt rotate, you have to press the icon far left (first) square with arrow in it.

Just like WMP on pc, to get full screen.

When playing vids, it will turn them landscape once pressed.
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
Do you really think you are the first person on the whole of xda to post about having issues with putting apps into landscape on hd2? Search harder.

Here is a full explanation of how rotation works:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=589570&highlight=rotating+apps+registry

You could edit the registry yourself or use a third party app like bsb tweaks as has already been suggested.

I would recommend gyrator 2 though.... you can simply setup one rule with this app that rotates every screen through all 4 orientations.

[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
I was thinking the other day about people opinions about using swaps and what the swappiness should be set to. I thought about how at sometimes during heavy use a higher swappiness would help while at other times it could slow things down. I was wondering if it would be possible to make a "smart" Swapper app that ran in the background and automatically adjusted the swappiness according to how much free memory is needed. For example when the phone is idle in your pocket swappiness would be at 10 but then as your started to browse the web or use GPS it would increase swappiness to allow you to have more free memory. Feel free to tell me why this is not practical or possible, it was just a thought I had.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I don't this its a case of being impossible

the question is why?

if your phone is 'sleeping' it probably isn't doing much with swap, so reducing swappiness won't achieve anything.

increasing swappiness when your phone comes to some load threshold will only increase the 'load' on swap as all of a sudden you want to dump more stuff from real memory into swap

tbh I don't understand why so many are obsessed with swap.

my advice , keep swappiness at default, and as for size of swap, large

why large?

good question, as you never really fill more than 40mb..

the reason for 'large' is 'wear levelling' your swap takes a hammering, if this partition is large then each block is going to have less writes on it than a smaller swap partition over a given period of time, thus increasing the life span of your sd card.
[G1 Android Development] ZombieReagan:
Agreed, playing with swappiness doesn't really help a whole lot.

One of the bigger issues (imo) is how once you have swap turned on the kernel will swap inactive pages out in order to make room for IO caching. If your device is sleeping, a lot of pages are suddenly inactive.

While at first it might seem like you'd want the ram to make up for a slow SD card, swapping out to the same device in order to make room for cache is counterintuitive. Unfortunately there is no way to cap the total amount of ram that can be used for cache. The logic is that unused ram and inactive pages can be put to better use to speed up IO.....except on devices with extremely limited ram and IO like most smartphones.

It's pretty unlikely that anything like that will make it back into the linux kernel any time soon. :\
[G1 Android Development] mobilemaster999:
Then again you never know Lunix is open sourced as well as android anything is possible
[G1 Android Development] MrBlueEyez:
The idea is correct, but as said, it isn't possible. Don't count on any linux changes in the future on this. On the other hand, i think there is a possibility, but this should be calculated.

Swapiness is set on boot, right? If i change it when running my phone, would this make any difference on further use?

Now my suggestion is, find out what swapiness is ideal. When the program can calculate the ideal swapiness level, based on how much RAM is used over time, this would be nice? It would write this level down in a userinit, and when you reboot the phone, it would use this level as a reference point on swapiness.

Only downside is that you can't figure out the ideal swapiness, it depends on the phone, apps and personal preference.

Anyone has comments on this idea?

Sprint's 6.5 forces you to use "HTC messaging" over "WM messaging". Is there a fix?

The new Sprint OEM 6.5 ROM forces you to use the "HTC messaging" text messages now when responding to a incoming text or when you hit "SEND MESSAGE" from within a address book contact.

I absolutely hate the "HTC messaging" style of text messages for 4 reasons:

#1 You cannot use "My Text" to insert pre-written text messages

#2 The soft button shows "BACK" where it shows "SEND" on the "WM messaging" style

#3 You cannot add names to the "TO FIELD"

#4 The "HTC messaging" never saves to draft or allows cut and paste.

(This is a MAJOR pain in the ass when everything you typed gets deleted when you hit the soft button "BACK" because your conditioned to hit the same soft button for "SEND" in the "WM messaging" style.

How can I make the "WM messaging" style text message format the default style or even the only style of texts with the new stock Sprint 6.5 ROM ?????

Thank you.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jhworley:
I still have the Windows SMS/MMS manager after upgrading to 6.5.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tonefour:
well you can try to redirect the text messaging tab to the WM messenger (which is possible ,since there is a hack on redirecting the alarm button to your third party alarm).

or get used to the HTC messaging as I did when I first tried manila.

or disable HTC manila/sense altogether, which I just did when updating to 6.5.

Can someone be kind enough to spell out exactly what I have to do (in BABY STEPS) so that MS messaging is my default messaging screen. I want to avoid HTC messaging at all cost.

I say "baby steps" because I'm a complete "newb".:(

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] keeneddie:
I disabled the Messages tab in the Home Screen Tabs. Then I added a Quick Link to Text on the Home Screen. Now all my texts are in WM messaging.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
Thanks. :) I did the same thing as well. :)

But, with that method, you have to manually enter the name of the recipient.

I would like to be able to use the "Favorites" from the bottom of the home screen to quickly access a recipient name.

BUT, I want to be put into the "Windows Messaging Screen" when I choose "send message" in the contact card instead of being placed into the "HTC Messaging Screen".

Also, I would like to be automatically placed in the the Windows Messaging Screen when replying to a incoming text message as well. Currently, the software forces you to use HTC Messaging to return texts.

Can anyone help to make MS Messaging the default messaging screen instead of it being the HTC Messaging Screen?

Thank You. :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] af_txboi:
why don't you just hit all messages on the bottom left of screen? that will open Wm messaging
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
Thank you. :) That's what I'm doing now. :)

But, whenever you hit"send message" from a "favorites", "contact card", or reply to an incoming text, the new ROM forces you to use HTC Messaging.

Also, the favorites is a MUCH faster way to add a recipient to a text message then having to type out the persons name. If you use "Favorites" you can add a recipient with a simply click, and then if you are brought to WM messaging instead of HTC messaging, you can use "My Text" to insert a pre-written message.

Having the ability to compose a new text with a few quick clicks should be NECESSARY for everyone. :)

HTC messaging is SLUGGISH and GIMPED. I want to automatically go into "WM messaging" so I can insert "My Texts" and multiple recipients.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] madlazytom:
or try this cab ;)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
Thank you for posting. :)

I installed that CAB. Unfortunately, I'm still being placed into "HTC Messaging".:(

I am running the official SPrint 6.5 ROM released last week.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
True. Thanks.:)

But, then you have to scroll or type out the name of the recipient. Unfortunately, I have a TON of contacts and that's not convenient.

I would like to be able to select a contact from "my favorites" in Sense 2.5, then hit "send message" in their card, and then be automatically placed into WM Messaging.

This way, when combined with the "My Texts" feature in WM Messaging, I can create and send a text with just around 6 taps of the screen. :)

This is the way is worked in the original ROM and I would like to find a way to modify Sense 2.5 to do the same thing. :)

Can anyone help us to make MW Messaging the default messaging screen so we can avoid HTC Messaging all together?

Thank you. :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tonefour:
I was also interested in that cab and wondered exactly what it does. I think you should read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=556614

as that is the original thread for that cab. there were some steps prior to installing the cab. I have no idea if it'll work for Sense, since it was made for Manila 2.5, but I don't see why it won't work since Sense and Manila are pretty much the same (sense is listed as manila in the registry).

also there is mention of it messing with the text notification or mms.

I would suggest just putting a quick link to "text messaging" app and removing the htc text messaging tab. that way you can go straight to your WM messaging (which I like a lot better as I can see all my new text messages when I get more than one instead of scrolling through the damn htc single message viewer).
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
Thanks for responding.:)

I am doing the above now, BUT, it forces you to type out the name of the recipient to add it to the "TO" field.

I LOVE the functionality of the "favorites" screen in Sense 2.5, I just HATE HTC Messaging. I would like to be able to use "Favortites", but just be placed into MW messaging and avoid HTC Messanger all together.

Can anyone help us find a way to make WM messaging the default text screen, while completely avoiding HTC messaging, while keeping Sense 2.5 ???

Thank you.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ai6908:
Why not just hit all messages down in the left, and use WM messaging?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tt c6:
That's what I'm doing now. But, I have to type out the name of the recipient.

I would MUCH rather use the "favorites" screen in Sense 2.5, BUT use WM Messaging only.

Furthermore, the stock Sprint 6.5 OEM FORCES you to use HTC messaging when sending a text from all "contact cards" or when respondig to incoming texts.

With my 6.1, I could use "my favorites" and "my texts" to send a complete text message with only a few taps on my screen. No scrolling. No typing.

This is not progress. :(
