[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] ocman:
trying to port psfreedom to my acerS200 , I have noticed something very very interesting, when I try to boot the new froyo : Froyo Mattc and also the PSfreedom system.ext2 from Darkstone, it crashrs sad.....

But the touchscreen is working, I mean when it is crashed coordonate of the pressure I make on the screen are printed on the screen, I think that our screens are natively fonctionnal in Android 2.2...

Maybe that's stupid deduction, but seems logical to me.( PS : at the beginning of android manufacturers were "forced" to put capacitive touchscreen in their devices, in the stategie to assure good experience to users, but google is hungry ans now bad and cheap chineese device with android are out, haven't you noticed on ebay ? they all have resistive TS, so maybe google decided to write drivers by themselves, or at least integrate them??? at least its really stange that it seems to work).

The crash when it locks during the boot process is concerning audio driver ( seems to be q6audio ) but people more frindly than me in android must have a look at it.

My Idea is that if we can mix the kernel used in these version and the drivers from the acer A1 Neotouch ( the native android one ) we could make a fully functionnal kernel?

I mean Acer must have change some things beetween the newtouch and the neotouch, but to reduce cost I think that they must have many same componants too, so maybee camera drivers and sound drivers are the same???

I'm pretty sure that one with better knowledge in android could have the touchscreen working now....

Hope this wasn't a too noob post :o
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
The only hardware that matches between the s200 and the s100 is the cpu...but that doesn't mean all the drivers of the s100 will work on the s200, there two completely different devices and you guys need to understand that, yes android boots, but thats all it does why? simple no linux kernel dev has gotten hes hand on one, so short answer unless someone with the proper kernel/driver assembly knowledge pops up, android on the s200 will simply stay the same...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] ocman:
I am agree with this statement, thats not what I say Rafy, we already have this discution and I am not a stupid noob saying this is easy and all, I was just talking about the screen that seem to work, this is a great step for us, I have verified the coordonates printed on screen and it seems that its really working, pressure is always detected at max ( 255 value ) but x and y goes from x:0 y:0 to x:478 y:799 so this is working.

Why rafy do you continue saying this statement that these two phones are not the same, we already know about that, I only say we can mix things to have something working, at least the screen.

Also do we have detailled pictures of the 2 phones ( I mean motherboard details, datasheet, to compare the chip used) can you proove (or give me link to proove)that audio chip on S100 and S200 isnt the same, also for the camera?

Staying in our position won't makes things working better.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] Arto:
I hope the android support will grow...

unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to play with drivers so I just can support you!

keep the development growing that's a good start
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] Axel85:
I really hope we could boot android in s200 some day...There are many good programmers in the forum,and i m pretty sure in the future someone will find a solution for all the driver...The touchscreen one is a really big improvement,and ocman i think that you can read only the full pressure (255) because s200 is resistive and not capacitive,and from my hardware knowledge resistive touchscreen has only 2 level of pressure (pressed or not pressed).Rafy,i think that s200 and s100 share many parts,i know acer and they try everytimes to go low on production cost,i would like to have some internal s100 pictures,so i can see difference from s200,and compare the two devices s hardware.And please we have to support people like ocman that try to work on android,i ve read only negative posts from you when we talk about it...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] ocman:
thats exactly my thoughts about acer economical policy, but maybe at time of design of the phone, their where some limitation in choice for some parts, anyway, we say things without having proof of anything ( except the fact i am sure screen is working now just need to find out why) maybe a real analysis in depth of the hardware of each phone will help. But nor me nor someone else really want to dismentle this expensive phone, thats the difference between us and real hacker...

ANyway, will do my best to set up a vmware image for compiling kernel for Acer, this way instead of saying things I could try and share result...

Seems to be the end for me on winmo cooking if I manage to do something on that!

[Nexus One General] MSigler:
This is literally the only thing I don't like about the phone. On my ~3 day old ATT Nexus One, the right side (When looking at the screen), on the side, the plastic is just loose enough that your fingernail can catch it. It seems insanely minor, but it's a huge annoyance because that's where your fingers rest, so it's constant sharp plastic edge.

Is there any way to remove and refit it, or maybe order a replacement cover? It's the plastic part with "HTC" on it. I really don't want to fight with HTC over a return for such a niggling issue :o
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Mine was, sent it to HTC and they sorted it. Looking at the tear down pics, it wouldn't be hard to DIY it.
[Nexus One General] MSigler:
Exactly. I'm torn as to rather I want to screw with it myself or go through the hassle of sending it in. Did they just send you a new phone and a box to return your old one, or did you have to actually send it in for repair?
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I sent it to them (well, they collected it), had it for a few days and returned it. Not a replacement, which I was happy with as my unit appears to be a goodun.
[Nexus One General] MSigler:
Yeah, but I sold my iPhone already and can't really be phoneless for a few days :o
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
You might be able to get an advance replacement if you ask. Or Google for the tear down, it pops off.
[Nexus One General] MSigler:
Yeah, I saw the teardown vid, seems to just pull off with enough force, I'm just unsure if I can make it any better. I'll wait and see if anyone has DIY'ed it :o
[Nexus One General] senf:
Same problem here, I thought I was the only one. =) I agree that it's really minor, but if it's something that could be fixed that would be nice.
[Nexus One General] Frag x 3:
Mine sticks out on the right side, too. NBD for me, but that's odd.
[Nexus One General] MSigler:
Yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one too. In the teardown vid on youtube they just pull it off with a plastic iphone tool. I'm kinda tempted to try, and see if I can tell what's making it do that.
[Nexus One General] vexingv:
i have this issue too. to me, it's a minor cosmetic issue. and how will you know that the one they send you doesn't also have that issue?
[Nexus One General] tbirdguy:
My beef is the glass on the screen sits just below the sides of the metal.. leaving a sharp ledge on both sides of the screen where it should be flush
[Nexus One General] MSigler:
Exactly, hence my hesitation to try to warranty it.
[Nexus One General] pongalong:
I had a chance to look at several at&t N1s and I noticed this too. The bottom part on about half of them had a larger gap than there should have been. Hopefully it's easy to DIY fix.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
How can AT&T N1s be different from T-Mobile one's exactly? There all being made by HTC, just of course with different radios.. why would there be cosmetic differences..? I didn't know carriers had an input in how [HTC] made their phones.. if you know what I mean.
[Nexus One General] pongalong:
It's possible that the t-mobile ones had the same problem. Luckily my phone hasn't had any problems really. But it's also possible for the manufacturer to make small adjustments on their lines to increase efficiency, that's why different batches/serial numbers come out screwy sometimes.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mightyiam:
My client has this problem which seems like a bug but I'm not sure.

Whenever he starts typing in the search widget or in the market search field - what happens is that two or more seconds later it loses focus and the text is gone (or it gets submitted? I'll ask him). Either way he can't use it because he doesn't get enough typing.

Any ideas?

This is CyanogenMod and reflashing didn't help the whole thing.

[HD2 General] loady:
Whats the easiest way to get the contacts from my iphone onto my leo ?...i believe that 'my phone' can do the job but i thought there may be an easier way to sync them to it.
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
Try syncing the contacts to outlook.
[HD2 General] loady:
Iphone contacts (mac) to outlook (micro$oft) i would not of thought it possibly...i will try though
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
Well, if you have a PC near by you it should work, since ActiveSync syncs up outlook contacts with WM devices.
[HD2 General] loady:
I understand that...but active sync and outlook wont connect with the iphone
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
Hmm, I remember I made iTunes sync with outlook before. That was a when I had the 1st Gen iPhone.
[HD2 General] loady:
Yeah you were right...its buried in itunes but it is possible, i just dumped them to outlook, there is also an option to dump them to windows contacts but i believe that is reffering to windows address book in which case i am running windows 7 and that is no longer part of the OS.

Thanks.
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
No problem, I had this similar issue switching from an iPhone to a WM phone a while back. :cool:
[HD2 General] mystik610:
1. Use iTunes to sync outlook with your iphone contacts

2. Use active sync your hd2 with your outlook contacts

Hi,

I want to ask how to disable SPB 3.5.3 "Edit Layout" and "Add Widget" from

bottom right menu?

Reason:

There has been a few time I accidentally move all the Widget and delete it.

I have to redo everything back to square one.

Thank You
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Koffein Schluck:
Had the same problem found a solution:

Its a REG key, so go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\NowScreen find the DWORD "TapAndHold" and set it to 0 (Zero) . Thats it :)
[Touch Cruise General] outrage_uk:
I used to have an O2 Orbit 2, im wondering if anyone can help...

It had a battery monitor bar, memory card storage % bar, and a slider bar to set the screen brightness on the today screen.

Also it had an application to tell you your GPRS Data usage for the day/week/month which created reports.

I used these all the time (obviously because they were on the today screen!) and id like them back if possible.

Im pretty sure they were included in the O2 ROM, I don't think I installed any applications like that. Can anyone upload them or tell me what they're called please?

Thanks :)
[Touch Cruise General] mutzy:
Hi Try going to setting>today>items(tab at bottom) then select meters.
[Touch Cruise General] outrage_uk:
"Meters" isn't there :(
[Touch Cruise General] bob_man_uk:
the apps your on about were installed by O2 when you got the phone, the gprs usage monitor was called exactly that, GPRS monitor (taken from the CD i got with the phone) along with sprite backup, which i saw on marketplace for about £16 i think :P

as for meters, isnt that part of the 6.1 rom by default? i definitely know O2 have a kind of mini task manager at the bottom of the screen, but i dont know if meters is part of that :( sorry

just tried to post a link to the GPRS monitor tool i uploaded. alas ive not been here long enough it seems.

I will pm it to you if you wish.
[HD2 General] xXJohnXx:
Hey all.

This is maby a stupid question and sorry if it is.

When i am browsing on opera 9.7 it always maks a screenshot of the last page and put it in

my temp map.

Any 1 knows why it do that?

On my tp2,wich have opera 9.5 its not makes a screenshot?

I see the screenshot when i want to change wallpaper.

thx in advance.
[HD2 General] mooooooa:
Haha, omg. I thought I was alone in the world with this problem :P I've got this issue too... Don't know why, but it's pretty annoying.
[HD2 General] padlad:
I think its for 'visual back' if you have it enabled, i.e if you want to go back a page it will show a reduced sized image of the page you have been on and, when selected, will load up that page, its very handy.
[HD2 General] xXJohnXx:
Thx for reply.

So its normal?

I just notice it, and i have my hd2 like 5 weeks.

Or maby i have not seen it yet.

And this means its like that on all hd2, or did i enable it my self?

If so, how can i disable it?

Thx.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
install bsbtweaks which will give you a toggle to turn "visual back"on or off.

[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I've been playing a lot with Kings Eris ROM and decided to look at the Legend ROM as well to see how it goes.

As you probably know it's one of the latest 2.1 Sense UI ROMs, most things are working now.

Issues:

Power off doesn't work - fixed

Dark video - fixed, thanks to Case_

It seems HTC thinks no one would have more than 100 Facebook contacts... a little annoying - found a fix that worked for me, sync the 100 contacts, remove the facebook acount, restart and add it again, all my contacts are showing now.

Probably other things I haven't found yet

Requires ext and a large (at least 128mb) swap partition

Thanks to King for your ROM I've learnt from and Sanpei who's port I've based mine on

Download

v0.9 This for now should only have english (fitting it all was a very tight squeeze), I haven't tested the other languages, but I can upload the files for you to push or possibly make no-wipe updates for them.

v0.9.1 Youtube HQ and Dark Video no-wipe update

Older versions:

Beta V0.3

Beta V0.2.5 it's back to a single flashable zip, and the next version is taking longer than expected so I'll update this page properly now

Beta V0.1
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Changelog:

v0.9.1:

No-wipe update to v0.9

fixes dark camera and video problem - thanks to Case_

adds support for Youtube HQ

v0.9:

Trying to remember everything I've done here...

apk's and frameworks updated - thanks to nprussell again

another big cleanup of system

framework now moved to /system

dalvik-cache now moved to /data

camcorder now works reliably, I've only tested it properly at 320x240 mpeg4

poweroff fixed - thanks Firerat

some changes to build.prop that will hopefully increase performance

apn settings FC should be fixed

other things I can't remember at the moment

Beta V0.3:

Huge cleanup of system, cut down to English, Spanish, Italian, French, German as language options

No more odex files, should now be completely theme-able

apk's from nprussel and RaiderX from the Hero section - there is a couple of minor graphical glitches (4 pictures showing in the wrong place), but it makes it a lot faster

This build could possibly be less stable

Beta V0.2.5:

Missing widgets fixed

Changed to a single flash-able zip to make things less confusing, thanks for the tips guys

Beta V0.2:

GPS should be fixed

'G1s too small' workaround I came up with, the system apps are temporarily stored on sdcard and moved to the EXT partition on the first boot

Beta V0.1:

Initial release

Added renicing script by MikeTaylor, edited so you don't get a whole backlog of them running, to test if it helps with incoming call lag

Will update this more later
[G1 Android Development] thierrz:
Good work.

Thanks bro, keep the good work up :)
[G1 Android Development] Eclair~:
But, what is the difference between the Eris 2.1 ROM, and this Legend one? I cant imagine it would be much different.. is this faster? More features?

I'm willing to flash anything with my Nexus coming Tuesday..
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
There's not too much different, with them both being 2.1 Sense, this has a slightly nicer theme IMO. And some things work better - like being able to hide sim contacts. Speed I'm not sure about though, it's possible this will end up being slightly slower, in which case I'll investigate the possibility of taking bits of both (I'm not too hopeful that will work though).
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I will give it a try on my G1 when you get the beta ready

the Phone lag (for incoming calls) change from MP3 to OGG may sort that out.
[G1 Android Development] tbgreen:
Good job man! Looking forward a version with WG kernel and ramhack for the need for speed :)

Wish the fix for phone lag be the priority since this is the most important of being a phone :)
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Vegaman, if this is NOT using BFS (I noticed it helped even when it did, but oh well), I have MikeTaylor's setpriority.sh script handy and the way to implement it written into my brain (Hero used to be my main rom for months).
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I'm using CFS, so his script is exactly what I'm trying right now :D

Did it work well for you? Seems to be working well here but I want to make sure it keeps running properly.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Yes it works very well. If it's the first call after running the script (I had the a2sd script run it at boot, so for me it was every boot), it will take two or three rings, but after that it will be consistently 1 or 2 with screen on, vibrating, and sounds.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Ok, thanks. I'll carry on testing it and some other things and leave it running overnight to make sure it's stable and hopefully I'll have time to upload it in the morning, assuming it all runs OK.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Was going to tell you it is not even 7 a.m...... Then I remembered there is such thing as a time zone, where time is different :D
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Dang, nice working list :P. Perhaps you can release a beta, once power off is working?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
You CAN power off, just not through a UI experience
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Oh, well I can live with that then...I smell another brilliant rom ^-^
[G1 Android Development] smjfosho:
should we expect a beta release soon?
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Hopefully he'll be uploading it now :[. Really wanna try this rom...
[G1 Android Development] smjfosho:
yeah me too, should be sick.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Guess what?

I'm going to go eat breakfast while I wait.

I've been using it without A2SD, but I'm uploading it with the a2sd script and userscript.conf reverted to normal. This ROM is big, I end up with 4MB free on my 90MB system partition. I've also left all of the apps in it, but I run it with a bunch removed myself (like footprints, stocks...).
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
I don't use the apps you've listed :p
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Ok I will do that..thanks for your help

Just sat here for 5 min. waiting for my phone to shut down.... then I remembered that doesn't work. Triforce of power folks, triforce of power...
[G1 Android Development] Cal-El:
Yea, I do it anyway and then pull the battery to give the SD card time to unmount so as not to damage it.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
hmm ok the nandroid downloaded finally. Can anyone tell me restore using it? and im looking through this and i see ext2.. Cal-el are you using ext2? and i also see his recovery.img so if we nandroid this will this give us his recovery? and you guys think we should try and use ext2 with this and see if we can flash the rom then?
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Looks like teeter finally works, pretty neat, even though footprints still refuses to add new footprints
[G1 Android Development] Cal-El:
No it says ext2 but it is ext4 upgraded through the recovery img.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
LED's do NOT work with HeroLED. Vegaman I suggest you get in touch with fictionles as it seems that this does not work with the Eris port as well which leads me to believe that the Eris/Legend use different procedures to call on LED's than the Hero (which is what the app was written for).
[G1 Android Development] djmasque:
Jeez, that makes a change. (Australians always seems to miss out) ;)
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
OK i know this is another noob question but bear with me. ok so i havent repartitoned in about uh 6 months and with this amon recovery we can like automatically do it :D ok so just for references the fat 32 should be about 1200 mbs and the ext2 should be about 512 mbs right?
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
The first thing it will ask you to set is swap size, everyone argues about this, i have it at 128 mb some like 96 mb or others do 160 mb. I recommend 128 but 96 would be the minimum for a sense rom. Then set the ext size, i use 512, plenty of space for anyone, unless you use 83461234 apps. I see no need for anything over 512, but thats me. Then the rest will be partitioned as fat32
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Nevermind figured it out lol. Well since my sd is formatted i dont have a nandroid folder to begin with so i should just be able to just go to nandroid restore?
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
unlike kings eris port, i actually got this rom to boot. seems really cool so far. great job dev!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] :
Hey man I went back to RA 1.5.2 and then back up to 1.6.2 and it still won't work what else can I do. No ADB or SDK. Anything?
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Thanks brother. i did as your said anyways. i used a 96 mb swap though.
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
I think in order for the recovery to find the nandroid backup you must create a nandroid folder on the sd and put the files inside of it.
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Oh and don't forget to upgrade to ext3 and then ext4
