Untouchab1e, thanks for the quick "how to"! I did what you said and now things are working correctly.

I went with the 0307200 that you suggested but, do you know where I can find the max that carriers support here in the US? I have taken a look around the interwebs and have come up empty handed.

Thanks again!
[Nexus One General] RaQHoliday:
Definitely not an AT&T issue, I'm on T-Mobile and get the same problem.
[Nexus One General] j.bruha:
Can you post your file or some quick instructions on how you did this? In the file I posted above, I extracted the Mms.apk file from CM 5.0.5.3, extracted the files, edited the xml file, saved it, but I don't see a way to rebuild the apk file or push just the xml file to my Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] ryscar:
You are almost there. After editing the xml, just reopen the Mms.apk… don't extracted it, just reopen it, and copy the xml file to the original location within the apk. It should just overwrite the one in the apk. I was using 7-zip to extract the files so when I double clicked the apk it would open but not extract the file.

Once the modified xml was in the apk, I just pushed it to the correct location then rebooted and tested.

I would post the apk but, I am at work and don’t have access to it.

Hope that helps. I will post the apk this evening if you need it.
[Nexus One General] j.bruha:
Thanks for the directions. Here's what I did, from the top.

-Pulled Mms.apk from CM 5.0.5.6 beta.

-Using 7-zip, right click>Open archive

-Navigate to res>xml>mms_config.xml, right click>Open outside, file opens in Hex Editor Neo (free binary editor I found real quick)

-Edit appropriate values as described by Untouchab1e, max width+height and size limit (tried both 0.7.6.8. and deleting the starting value to get 7.6.8. for image height)

-Saved the file, closed the binary editor, updated the file when prompted by 7-Zip.

-ADB,

adb devices
adb remount
adb push mms.apk system/app
adb reboot

When the device boots back up, I'm still unable to consistently send any images taken with the camera. Some go through, some just flash the red clock that stares at me like AT&T's middle finger.

Anxiously waiting for you to post the mms.apk file you built to get it working. I can't properly express how frustrated I am at this point.
[Nexus One General] ryscar:
Strange, that should work...? The Mms.apk I used was from 5.0.5.3 but I doubt it should make difference.

You might want to see if the one you built is actually changing the size. Just long press on the picture in the messaging app and choose View message details. After I made the changes the Message size has yet to be over 75KB where before they were 2MB+ sometimes.
[Nexus One General] Untouchab1e:
Hi, glad you found my "how to" useful. Sadly, I dont live in the US so I have no idea what the max sending size for your carriers, but 300kb is probably the "safe" limit to go for anyways.
[Nexus One General] tiltman71:
How do you install it?
[Nexus One General] ryscar:
adb devices
adb remount
adb push mms.apk system/app
adb reboot

If you don't have the SDK installed and running, check out the first link in the sticky at the top of the thread. (Sorry, can't post a link yet)
[Nexus One General] cyanogen:
The max image size set in the N1 MMS overlay is 2592x1944. I've set it to 640x480 for the next CM version (5.0.6), this is what was used previously in Donut. Hopefully this makes everyone happy.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
Thanks for the update cyanogen!
[Nexus One General] tiltman71:
Where do you put the mms .apk file?

not sure how to do the. adb devices

adb remount

adb push mms.apk system/app

adb reboot.

not sure what to do?

sorry for the newbe question.
[Nexus One General] j.bruha:
I am going to give your's a try, but I'm at work right now and can only use the terminal emulator on the phone itself. I'm running this command,

su cp sdcard/download/mms.apk system/app

and I'm getting "permission denied" returned. I also tried it without superuser permissions and of course, the directory came up as read-only.

Also, I clicked all the lines in the Superuser Permission app before I did any of this.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong before I just push it with ADB when I get home in a couple hours?
[Nexus One General] ryscar:
No clue. I have never tried to do it from the phone. That command looks correct in the world of Linux but I don't know if there are any gotchas that I am unaware of.
[Nexus One General] rori~:
oh yes :):) it will!!!! thanx*
[Nexus One General] h2opoloplyr_11:
thank you cyanogen!!! i love picsay but sometimes i just want to send mms on the fly! LOL!

thank you though, cant wait for the 506 version!
[Nexus One General] Untouchab1e:
I wrote up a more detailed guide here

Hope that will work out for you!
[Nexus One General] Untouchab1e:
Any chance of this setting being adjustable by the user? I think 1024x780 would be safe enough for me. :)
[HD2 General] ITZAWORK:
Just bought the HD2 a little while ago...its pretty nice. I just have to get used to the touch keyboard... had the HTC Touch Pro 2 and still love it, but the screen was just too glorious to pass up...lol

I too have just moved from the TP2 to the HD2 :)

​
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:

[HD2 General] vamarris:
Just picked mine up for $148.88 with new contract at WAL MART!!!
[HD2 General] citan_x:

[HD2 General] shu8i:
can you tell me a bit about the tetris game? is it full touch/responsive/fun?
[HD2 General] Flame3g:
got mine also...i called walmart on the 23rd and a girl said they had it and it was available so i drove about 15min to the super walmart and the girl pulls it out and starts to give it to me while im filling out my info....then this guy comes up and ask if she needs anything, she says she has to go use the restroom......he says i'll finish up and looks at the phone and says "we can't sell this phone till tomorrow" i'm like D**** and just walk out LOL
[HD2 General] j23a45m:
got mine for $199.99 at tmobile store in the mall at 9:30am and called in and got the windows mobile $50 credit 149.99 not bad at all
[HD2 General] DaDoctor:
Yes it is, but its trial :(
[HD2 General] shu8i:
from what company is it? so i can buy it, because i've never seen the tetris game of the tmo hd2 out there :(
[HD2 General] Sangheili:
Can you shed some light on this $50 credit? I bought mine no-contract at Wal-Mart.
[HD2 General] j23a45m:
sure look here

[HD2 General] Earthbrain:
How did you get the windows mobile $50 credit?

I would like to know. Thanks.
[HD2 General] j23a45m:
just called in and let them know i upgraded to the Hd2 and they credited my account $50

http://wmdeals.com/
[HD2 General] Earthbrain:
I currently have a T-mobile plan.

I do not want to sign up for any plans.

My question is:

Is there any other way to get the phone only for less than $449.99 without signing up for any plans or service or change any plans? Of course Bing cashback does not work so I have eliminate that option.
[HD2 General] j23a45m:
not that i know of. $449.99 is the price with no contract
[HD2 General] Sangheili:
There is some discussion of bing cashback at 35% if purchased online via tmobile store. Check the tmobile HD2 forum.
[HD2 General] mastakillaa:
HD2

i got mine today at T-Mobile store $199....now how do i port mu google contact to Hd2? ;)
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:

Got my HD2 this morning from the Walmart around the corner from my house for 148.88. Lol but the lady took all the glory away from me but insisting that she had to open the box and start it up to activate it! LOL LIES~!:confused:
[HD2 General] reocej:
I just called and they would not give me the credit! How/Who did you talk to to get the $50 credit. Guy I talked to actually said he would need your number to see how credit was applied. I want this credit! Did you call the store or the winmodeals line?
[HD2 General] :
would this sync the "phone" contacts from my g1? they appear on my google account on voice...
[HD2 General] Earthbrain:
Bing cash back does not work because it forces you to get a plan with the phone or it would not allow you to make the payment. You can only see the phone in your check out cart but cannot make a complete payment.
[HD2 General] TheMach:
What about signing in to T-Mobile through Bing and then signing in to your account? That's what I was going to do, log in to my account, select the upgrade phone options, and choose the no-contract price in my Bing session. Would this not work?

On another note, can anyone comment on the divx/xvid playback performance, especially those upgrading from the TP2? I bought my TP2 in hopes of being able to watch my divx files but was not happy with the performance, so I want to upgrade to the HD2 in hopes for better playback.
[HD2 General] Plazmic Flame:
I'm really happy for all of you, can someone tell us if it has the HTC Wifi Router app?
[HD2 General] erick10:
I paid $200 plus tax for two HD2s at my local Tmobile Store.

Got them on a family even more 2year contract.

Got to love the buy one get one free offer.

wifi router is not installed but the cab is easy to put on
[HD2 General] j23a45m:
got my phone at the local Tmobile store, I posted the link to the number that i called and just informed them I brought a new Hd2 and seen the $50 winmo deal and the account specialest honored the credit.
[HD2 General] 84Gti Guy:
also go to the market and use the mobile backup from t-mobile. back up the android, then run it on hd 2 when it asks to back up phone to server say no, then it will restore server to phone.

[General Questions and Answers] templarje:
Hello guys, i own HP Ipaq voice messenger(wm 6.1), and i am a little bit disappointed about homescreen.. sure there are loads and loads programs for customizing homescreen, or even whole menues and stuff but all of them are for touchscreens only(SPB mobile shell for example).. Only one i could find is Facade, which is not exactly the thing i am looking for..

So my question, are there any other homescreen customizing programs for non-touchscreens? Thanks in advance :)
[Desire General] irkan:
the HTC Desire will come one week ahead :D

according to clove

http://blog.clove.co.uk/2010/03/24/htc-desire-first-stock-29032010/

UPDATE: also handtec is confirming that they will be getting at the same day, 29-Mar-2010 :D

http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/2749/htc-desire--sim-free-unlocked-
[Desire General] w00yee:
thats exciting!! just a quick question here, if i buy it from clove, how many extra dollars do i have to pay for duty and tax to get that imported to GA, US?:D
[Desire General] irkan:
yes i cant wait till i get my hands on it :D

not exactly sure, the shipment costs depends, .. it could reach to 37 euros as in my case (living in middle east).

and within the country am living in right now, there is 5% duty if i used DHL/Fedex .... so it really depends on your country's laws :D
[Desire General] cez10:
ok but on the desirehtc website it still says 01/04 so probably all other retailers will have it then or even later than that
[Desire General] w00yee:
wow~ only Duty, no VAT for your country?
[Desire General] irkan:
VAT is only for European countries, .... Lol
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
To be fair that is probably counting down to when it's avalaible to customers.

So shops etc will probably get it a few days early. It's like with games, if you preorder a game from a game shop then you're almost certain to get it in the post a few days before it's actually supposed to hit the shelves.
[Desire General] vegetaleb:
Last time I bought something with DHL it was from US, a samsung P3

It costed 150$+50$ shipment

Lebanese customs...45$

So about 20% :eek:
[Desire General] irkan:
actually the percentage should be taken from the original value of the product (excluding the shipment).

So basically yours is more like 30% :rolleyes:
[Desire General] Coatezy:
Seriously though why is there no proper hands on reviews yet with less than a week to go before release..? They are normally the only way that helps me contain my excitement.
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
I'm thinking this, should be reviews by now but each day I check and can't find one =[
[Desire General] irkan:
I agree with you, ... everyday i check google & youtube for the latest news and clips on the Desire, .... but everything so far is not proper, .. most of the clips just mention the specs and flip the phone 2-3 times. there isnt any proper review of any kind ..
[Desire General] gogol:
Superb!!!!!! This is the best news for me today :) I ordered from Clove as well ... Yippie!
[Desire General] indyjonesUK:
Mine is ordered from Clove too :D Looking forward to it hopefully there will be no big bugs when released. :)
[Desire General] asci:
Is HandTec.co.uk a reliable store?

THX!
[Desire General] bcmobile:
Buy from Clove

I would go with Clove if you're buying from the UK. GPB/STG$330. I just ordered mine and had a few questions about payment, shipping etc. They were extremely helpful.

They even told me I would miss the first shipment due 29th March, but would get mine from the 2nd shipment, due 2nd April. many e-tailers wouldn't offer this sort of info up-front because delivery date for preorders can, and almost always will be, a deal-breaker.
[Desire General] asci:
Thank you very much! I'm buying from Italy, but I saw that Clove can also ship abroad. So I will also miss the first round...and maybe also the second...LOL. The price is more convenient that Expansys, about 40€ less...

ONE MORE QUESTION: is the graphite model the silver one?
[Desire General] AudunXetrov:
I think the graphite model is the Urban Brown one, seeing as how graphite is pretty dark, and that only a few stores and carriers will have the silver one, but don't take my word for it.
[Desire General] w00yee:
i see.. embarrassed... :D

So, anyone can tell me if I am right, if I want one from Clove (am in US) I have to pay for the phone, shipment, and import duty, no other fees, correct?
[Desire General] JTHM:
Yay!! After the crap day I had yesterday I needed this news to bounce me back. I ordered with Clove and haven't been in touch with them yet but as I placed my order way back on 16-Feb I'm pretty confident of being in the first shipment. :p Come to me, my lovely!! :D
[Nexus One General] MI_canuck:
anyone found a good anti-glare screen protector or film for the Nexus?

the AMOLED is clearly near worthless in direct sunlight... barely readable even at 100% screen brightness setting (which would drain the battery in no time)...

I've tried the Clarivue ones - the 'anti-glare' ones they claim, but all that is is a matte/brushed finish... which just makes the screen look cloudy all the time... definitely reduces the crispness of the screen...

wondering if there is a solution (even if it's "cut your own") for a film that is smooth and glossy, but has an anti-reflective property to it.... maybe even something with some polarized property.... :confused:

cheers
[Nexus One General] blastik:
here in spain its pretty sunny and everytime that I use my N1 while walking I have to but brightness up to maximum. for me its allright like that even thought drains faster the battery. :o
[Nexus One General] clownfart:
So you want something glossy...meaning reflective..that has anti-reflective properties.

Got it.
[Nexus One General] MI_canuck:
I may have found something... ordered to try...

the 'DayVue' version of their film - 'anti-reflective' and 'anti-glare'... they have a regular 'anti-glare' as well, which I'm presuming is just a matte finish... But the DayVue sounds like it's what I'm looking for...

http://www.nushield.com/dayvue_antireflective_screen_protector_film.php

http://thedirtytshirt.com/nushield-dayvue-anti-reflective-screen-protector-film-review

Something along the lines of 'museum glass'... smooth and glossy yet extremely anti-reflective... just for reference... for those that don't believe you can have a smooth, yet still anti-reflective surface ;) ... http://www.tru-vue.com/Tru-Vue/Products/33/ ...
[Nexus One General] JAW$:
They don't make a perfect cut protector for the Nexus One
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
:(

OyVe... guess I could just get a 3.5' iPhone one and not have the corners covered to see if better... wonder if there is any glare protectors on their website to use with a 3.7' phone that I could order it for and use for the N1
[Nexus One General] gj13:
Boxwave makes a pretty decent one. They offer one precut for the N1. I would post a URL but I can't yet.

Any screen protector with anti-glare properties will always make the display slightly cloudy. I got one of boxwave's anti-glare screen protectors for my Moto Cliq and it worked very well. The clouding is very minimal and is hard to notice. It also gives the added benefit of greatly reducing the visibility of fingerprints and smudges.

I just ordered one for the N1 too.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
:D

Thank you, might order this today. I wish there were some actual pictures to see the difference...
[Nexus One General] gj13:
I just received the boxwave screen protector a few minutes ago. I attached a picture with it applied. It's not a very good picture though. I don't have manual focus on my camera, so it looks more fuzzy than it actually is. I hope this helps a bit though.

I tried it out in near-direct sunlight outside and there's a definite improvement, especially if you increase the screen brightness. It also makes your finger slide across the screen easier. You don't get that grip feeling like on the glass.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Wow :D

Thank you Thank you I appreciate it... I'll def get it today now because of your great suggestion.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
A glossy surface reflects light.

A matte surface diffuses light.

Glare is light.

Today I was downloading a bunch of games to play during accounting, all was going well until my art history class, when I was playing a game and my phone randomly and instantly rebooted itself... the only things I've done recently are install those games and switch to an andia battery. I'm hoping that these are just software issues... do you guys have any input? I'm running damagecontrol...

PS.. I also just started experiencing the high percentage of time without a signal... (don't know if that may indicate something, but I'm going to search for the thread on that I saw a few days ago.) (It has been 5.5hrs since I've unplugged, and I just got the 15% warning as I was writing this, however I have been playing games and downloading all morning)
[Hero CDMA General] smw6180:
I personally think the phone was trying to tell you to pay attention in class.

But seriously, the time without signal: Put it into airplane mode for about 1 minute, then take it out. Voila. Problem solved. The 50% time without signal will slowly drop to 0 (or close to it).
[Hero CDMA General] chfields:
That is only a temperary fix....after awhile it goes right back up....:mad:
[Hero CDMA General] smw6180:
Only if you reboot the phone. It doesn't hold through a reboot.

At least on my phone, after 3 days running, I've never seen time without a signal above 5% (and that 5% is because I really DIDN'T have a signal at that point).
[Hero CDMA General] chfields:
Hence, why I say temporary fix....
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
It's a fix, temporary or not..

Hence, I say your post is moot..
[Hero CDMA General] ejqr5:
Thanks! Temp or not, it helps!
[Hero CDMA General] thematrixkid17:
I never had a problem with the time without signal problem before. Does anyone know what is causing it? Like, I've read that the setting doesn't stay set, but what is screwing it up? Isn't DC based on the eris dump? I don't see why it would be searching for a GSM signal, and how would the radio do that anyway? something doesn't seem right to me about that explanation
[Nexus One General] mathieu92:
HI folks,

Was wondering how to do autocomplete in terminal.

I have searched the forums and the best I have found is to run 'ash', which allows you to use the trackball to scroll through your history. In the G1 forum, they use the 'Alt' key to perform autocomplete, running ash before as well.

As we dont have the 'Alt' key, is there another way (button combination, long press on something etc) to perform the autocomplete ?

Another question, is about md5sums. I looked in here and in the market, but without success. Is there a way to check those directly from within the phone ?

Thanks
[Hero CDMA General] richse:
I just read that Android doesn't naively support Wimax in 2.1 and Sprint put some of their code in to make it work on the EVO. This seems similar to the way HTC used code in 1.5 to make the Hero work before 1.6 came out. Is there any chance we would be able to take that code and have Wimax on the Hero? Please read disclaimer below in case you are about to flame me.

Disclaimer: I realize this may be a really stupid question. I'm unfamiliar with Wimax and what hardware it requires so if the Hero just doesn't have the hardware capabilities then obviously this is a mute point.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
pretty sure they wont be releasing that "code" to the public

wait lol wimax and 4g are the same thing lol
[Hero CDMA General] TechniShawn:
When I bought my Hero last October I knew next to nothing about 3g/4g etc... except the fact that 4g was faster and supposedly coming very soon to SLC. The salesman at the sprint store told me that the Hero is 4g capable and would just get an update when 4g was officially available. He also told me that there was already spotty 4g coverage in the SLC area. I know now he didn't know wtf he was talking about and just told me that to sell the phone.
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
No they're not. "4G" is a standard term for certain speeds in mobile data networks.

(Technically WiMax is only a theoretical 4G network... in actual practice it's a lot slower than the 4G standard.)
[Hero CDMA General] SupahDave:
at least he realized it was a dumb question while he was writing it... lol
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
I"m sure that was salesman BS.

The Hero definitely does not have the radio for WiMax.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
I'll buy one the minute I see Root.
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
No it's not..

4G is a standard term for the "4th Generation" of Mobile Data Networks..Not the actual speeds..

The speeds are then classified by the competitor, based on their network capabilities...

The speed of the network is defined by WiMax standards... Not by 4G standards..
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
True, 4G referes to 4th Generation. However, there are standards bodies (just like IEEE) that set out what minimum speeds are required to be considered 4th gen wired and wireless technologies (1Gbit for wired, 100Mbit for wireless.)
