[G1 Android Development] pl_laszlo:
ya, same VERY simple util i added in my mod of SuperD rom.

Currently my friend and me work for an app which will be gui for this util.

Greets, Laszlo.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
lol Are we all implementing it 0o we will have 3 different ways :P
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
Wow! I'm impressed... Nice to see so much support for this! Now I can keep my old G1 (my housing is beginning to crack! eek!:eek:) until the My Touch Slide(such a gay name!) comes out. I was going to get the Nexus but I really rather have a physical keyboard like the G1 for emulation, long emails, and such. I really pains me to see so few HTC devices with fewer and fewer keys. Touchscreens are nice but emulators really run so much better with real keys. Anyways... really looking forward to more roms with the ramhack switch.
[G1 Android Development] boimarc89:
cummon dude u didnt have to b an asshole about it...i kno i aint a dev but i aint a noob either. plus the MOD said this thread was a good idea anyway. if i could, i would become a dev and make my own build since u and half of the major dev care less about feedback from ur field testers anyway but anyway, i dont have the luxury of time to learn android and linux commands....dude, i been proudly supporting ur roms telling all my friends w/ g1s who r tired of cyanogen rarely updating his roms for the g1. i guess this is what i get for supportin sum1 100% SMH
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
hm easiest way for ramhack: just go without it.

roms are fast enough today... and you can play games anytime you want :p

and nobody will switch jit more than once - either he likes it or he doesn't...

but i like the sparepart thing anyway ;)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Who thinks a poll should be made to see how many people want it before the switch is made otherwise it could be a waist where more important stuff could be added :P Because I only see 987 people of the XDA G1 community viewing this thread and that is a poor portion :/
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I'm kind of wondering how it is possible for it to be a waist, I mean, after all, it is software ;)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
LOL yeah but that time making this could be used for other cool needed stuff lol and yeah you have a point JA on the software bit :P

Really are we too lazy to just flash an upgrade package ourselves also domen has a point we either like ramhack and jit or we don't really we stick with the one we like honestly and don't jump between them :/
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
You missed the entire point of that post, you spelled waste incorrectly

Way2Fail
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
LOL and re-read that post added info also idk :p

ps: LOL im still going to make it and do it for fun XD
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
It will be a nice option for most, trust me. For one thing, most people don't speak up. Plus, once it's made... it'll save the devs time instead of having to create two roms they can just make one. And most will use ramhack on for daily use but if you want to play 3D games once and a while, you'll have that option too. It's awesome really. I've been using Laszlo v1.3 with ramhack switch for a couple weeks now and haven't looked back. I can understand if you have a MT3G, you don't really need the ramhack but for G1 users, it's a different story.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Na even fore MT3G users it makes a difference lol trust me -_-
[G1 Android Development] IConrad01:
Regarding the RAMhack;

It is in fact possible to change the kernel without rebooting. This is called "hotswapping".

One such implementation of this is Ksplice. ( http://www.ksplice.com/dist/ <-- source-code; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ksplice <-- wikipedia page)

There is no arm implementation of Ksplice just yet -- but the source is there, and would just need porting / parsing from Ksplice in order to switch out the RAMhack.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
0o sounds cool im guessing it just splices out the part needed changes then changes it and put that bit back in sort of like a cell? XD
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
wouldnt it still need a reboot tho so that the changes can take effect without slowing the phone down in the process of it being activated????
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Im guessing not but ask the person who said it above me I was trying to ask him more about it lol I need to write my posts better :/ - Yeah if it's like that then it will slow it down till it has changed but after it has been activated im not too sure how that would work XD - But I can see what your getting at lol
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
Would it be possible to borrow memory???? ok seeing as tho we have the 10mb hack, would we b able to use the memory wen its not being used and then if playing a 3d game or using anything 3d the memory would reallocate itself based on wats needed????
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
I'm guessing as that is the kernel you would require splicing/parsing again and the same rules as to how it would work with jit would sort of be the same rules of how it would work with ramhack lol

ps: If I am ever wrong do correct me lmfao :P
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
wouldnt it be the same idea of how the android handles multitasking????

example: say i have several apps running and its using the 10mb of gpu, then i wanna play a 3d game, android would close those apps and extend back the ram to the gpu for playing the game smoothly????:p
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Yeah but for that it would require kernel changing still as most of it is done in the kernel and that would in turn require splicing/parsing :/
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
im not understanding???, if i am able to turn on swap thru the terminal, why is it so different and difficult to share wats already there????
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Because swap and compache use ramzswap.ko to archieve this not edit the kernel

When looking for making of adding the spareparts option for ramhack and Jit I noticed this XD
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
o okay brilliant(sarcasm), wat about a compression of the entire system??? lol
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
You have sort of confused me with this question :P could you refrase it XD

what do you mean by entire system XD do you mean the whole rom? 0o
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
This is looking quite promising, I hope you guys are able to get this working. That would be a great new add-on to our spareparts collection of controls :D
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
lol yea the whole rom
[G1 Android Development] IConrad01:
From what I understand -- I have nothing to do with the ksplice project -- basically it waits until no pointers direct to the piece of code that is to be changed out, and then replaces it in real time. It can utilize the linux system call "stop_machine" to do this at the CPU level.

But regardless -- the point is that there /is/ a way to implement hot swapping of kernels during runtime; so there doesn't seem to be a need to do this solely by reboots.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
LOL cool man sounds interesting :P
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Ain't heard much in a while but added it to spareparts lol just got to do some tests and send to some beta testers etc. :P - ps: Don't ask lol already got the testers XD

Screenshot - http://img132.imageshack.us/i/snap20100330235159.png/
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
looking good so far, but would we need to reboot after each setting or can we check both and reboot only once???
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
ummm would have to reboot after each one separate as they are both needed by the system to operate android I believe XD

Well that's how i've set it up XD
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
Hotswapping with direct kernel changes is still a bit from being used on android.

think about it this way. .. to put it simply. how Windows 98/xp termed plug and play. hardware or core changes could be done or found without having to reboot anymore. for most cases, that is.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
:D This looks like heaven.
[G1 Android Development] IConrad01:
Yes -- hot-swapping for Android is a tad of a ways away. But I would imagine (dangerous words!!) that the source-code for ksplice could be ported to the arm architecture linux kernel... from there it seems that 99% of the work is done; just wrinkling out the bugs as necessary.

After all -- essentially at the level of operation we're discussing pretty much everything is Linux; the Android bits are transparent at the kernel level (well, mostly.)
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
It will be so useful for many things. I'm sure hot swapping will happen soon enough in the Android world. The ramhack switch is almost complete as we speak. I mean, the cosmetic version, that is. The script has been out for a little while. So few developers have implemented it... yet. It does have one bug in the version I'm currently using (Laszlo v1.3). wifi doesn't work while the ramhack is switched on but when the memory is moved back to the GPU... it works fine. Simple fix, I'm sure. Haven't quite figured it out yet. I know it has something to do with the wlan.ko file located in /lib/modules. Something happens to it when you switch .img files to turn the ramhack on. I tried replacing it another known good file with no luck. Oh well, that isn't too big of a deal. Xillius200 is making GREAT strides in the ramhack/jit switch world as we speak. I mean, adding it into Spare Parts!? Brilliant;)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
LOL getting there seems to be none of my spareparts stuff are working now lol however I think the rom and the spareparts didn't like to go together going to try it with the rom I compiled it with XD but I'm right on the edge as you can see XD ;)

PS: When I mean none of the spareparts I mean it lol however probably just made an error in the code won't take that long to look back few less than 30 minutes XD :P - Do that after school lol
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
This man never sleeps, lol! Literally, I think;)

Have you tried it with Super D 1.9.2 or 1.9.3 and Laszlo v1.3 Those always seem like stable bases for me. I doubt it matters... It's probably just a minor error.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
LOL tried it with v1.10.2 probably why it didn't work was going to try it with v1.9.4 do they make that version? 0o

0o Found the error I think lol seems to be clashing with compcache code lol will fix later tonight XD found this when selecting compcache it selected jit and ramhack aswell and vice versa lmfao :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] liehuo:
Hi guys. I'm not sure whether any of you out there have this problem. I tried adding some words to XT9 which I use often in sms but after awhile when I tried typing that word again, the word doesn't appear. I will have to type in the word using ABC because XT9 simply can't store the word in the dictionary. Any idea how do I make XT9 store the word so it'll make typing a lot faster? Thanks in advance.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] cmstackar:
Are you soft resetting every now and then? I know on my ROM the soft reset takes away saved words, but other than that do they ever show up?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] liehuo:
Nope. It's like tt even before i soft reset. Any solution to this?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sapphiregroup:
Hi All,

Just wondering if any of you knew how one would dump a Touch Pro ROM, intact from the bootloader (its been hardSPLd & we have level=0 superCID)

pdocread is not an option as we are not allowed to use activesync in the environment in which we are working to recover the data from this phone (we aren't allowed to actually *change* or potentially change data on the phone.

I have tried with mtty using task 32 / d2s in an attempt to dump the ROM to an SD card, task 32 initialised the SD fine.

I also tried rbmc (using set 1e 1 prior to running) but this, even when left overnight, just sits at a line of text saying HTC after the lines of default parameters it prints.

Do any of you learned people know how one would extract the ROM from the Touch Pro (it is for analysis in Encase which will copy with the raw FS) through the bootloader?

TIA

[Hero CDMA General] marcusva79:
I cant make out the difference. Or are they the same? What does everyone think.
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
definitely different, performance is quite similar between them though.
[Hero CDMA General] VinceOB:
No, its different. Legend is cleaner.
[Hero CDMA General] marcusva79:
i have liked legend better. Kinda wondering how 2.1 for the hero is gonna look like.
[Hero CDMA General] VinceOB:
Probably like the Eris 2.1.
[Hero CDMA General] notasimpleway:
I hope we get Friend Stream. That is sweeeeeet. *wishful thinking*
[Hero CDMA General] marcusva79:
i havent used friend stream yet? What is that.
[Hero CDMA General] nahrwoldinternet:
Why are people actually waiting for the Official Release?

But... I already have Friend Stream?!?!?!:rolleyes:

My question is, we have several extremely good 2.1 ROMS, based off both Eris and Legend. Why would anyone switch to the actual released ROM? IMHO, I think it's a better idea to let the devs play with the official releases and let them give us something better (as they always do - thanks, guys!):D
[Hero CDMA General] mountaindont:
I havent messed with any legend leaks, but im willing to bet eris is as close as we'll be getting. I hear legend is a bit more dried up, easier to use....user friendly?

Hey, 2.1 was released for the Hero today anyway, right? Jk
[Hero CDMA General] nahrwoldinternet:
Friend Stream defined

Friend Stream is an HTC app that takes advantage of facebook, twitter, and flikr. Since you're linked to all 3 accounts in Legend 2.1, it combines the accounts in one straming app. It kinda looks like the facebook wall, but it's a combination of all activity in all three accounts. More info at HTC's Website. or try it out in DarchLegend 4.2.2.
[Hero CDMA General] mountaindont:
Hey wow! Thats whatsup man...not sure if im willing to move onto legend though, just for friendstream.
[Hero CDMA General] marcusva79:
I tried to use Friendstream but my just keeps updating. WTF.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Garcia:
I have been using Swype keyboard for some time and absolutely love it, but have been annoyed about it not having special letters such as used in Scandinavia.

Then Yesterday I fell over a similar keyboard called SlideIt and that works same way as Swype, it just have support for all European languages plus Arabic and Hebrew, plus you can make abbreviations and as a benefit to all those that don't use WM you can also get it for Android and Symbian.

Price is a reasonable 7.99 USD

You read about here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Vafflus83:
U are scandiavian? Does the keyboard support ÆØÅ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Garcia:
Yes, I'm Danish.

Yes, as I wrote then it supports all European languages, you download a language pack of your choice, mine was of course Danish and you can just download the Norwegian language pack and in options you choose the language you want as Primary and which one you want as secondary and voila you have all the special characters for Norway.

The only issue is when you have used Swype for some time is that the buttons are a little smaller, but that only takes a day to get used to.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Vafflus83:
ok, and it works when u flip the phone to the side?

Have to check out the videos on youtube before i decide...

But if anyone else have used this, i would like to know about the feedback..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Vafflus83:
Brilliant, abselutly brilliant....

Recommended....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kuzibri:
SlideIT is the no.1 keyboard for my/the HD2. Far superior over Swype IMHO.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Cobra2:
After alot of tests, I can only agree :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kuzibri:
Thanks!!! Certainly the new version kicks the hell out of Swype.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Eggy88:
Im Norwegian and have been using SwipeIT since the start. Works fine, but the only issue i have is that it does not work in landscape mode. The keyboard turns all white and the letters are not visible.

Think this is a know'n problem since i have heard some other reports on the same.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Cobra2:
it is fixed in the new version, works like a charm :-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] abmantis:
It is really a great keyboard! One issue I have is that it does not detect text selection in HTC Messaging application. I don't think the problem is with SlideIT since it works fine on another text application like Pocket Notepad, and also Swype does not detect selected text also... So probably a problem with HTC Messaging app text selection method...

Anyway it is a great input method and works very good!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] donalgodon:
Double tap selection never works in HTC Messaging. Long press/hold on the word brings up the editing menu. It's stupid, in my view.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] abmantis:
Yeah, I know about the long press editing menu. but even if I select a word with the little pointers (or whatever that things are called) SlideIT does not detect it, so I cannot add/edit/remove that word to/from the SlideIT dictionary like the video here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/Product/SlideIT/Corrections.php
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] donalgodon:
Ah, yes. I guess that is why so many people are disabling HTC Messaging and using the WM default client. It's better in these areas, but it looks like crap.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] abmantis:
I agree! The HTC Messaging app has some serious issues that should get fixed. But it also has some nice features and is pretty :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Vafflus83:
Best app i've downloaded so far, i couldn't be happier :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ToddeSwe:
Hi all!

Have just installed SlideIT and i think if i give it some time i will use it before the HD2 original one. But, is there some better looking skins for it? Or at least one with slightly bigger buttons? :)

Have googled it but i can't find anything that points me in any way that says that someone is making or are going make skins for it.

Can it be done?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] casci:
In PDF User Manual, I read this:

"The user has the option to introduce a large number of new words into the dictionary rapidly or to even use a customized dictionary. To do this, create a file containing the new words on a PC and then move the file to the device. The user must open the file and select all of its content. Next, tap on the indicator ‘+’. The bulk update is then performed. Note that the maximum length of the selected text is 1000 characters."

But which kind of file I've to create, where I've to put it, and how can I access to it from the keyboard ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] abmantis:
You can use an application like Pocket Notepad with a txt file...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Wylker:
Why is it so much better than swype? I have 0 issues most of the time with swype unless im trying to do a lot of mixed numbers/letters...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Garcia:
I actually wrote them and proposed larger keys coz that's the only issue I have with it, they didn't promise anything but would look into it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] donalgodon:
+1

The default is butt-ugly. Looks like it could have been made by the Microsoft graphic design team.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] abmantis:
Ahahah this made me laugh :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] werfje:
I'm using Slide It too now for a couple of days.

I'm very pleased with it.

It works very good.

I also don't use htc messaging but the windows one.

Why?:

-because you can't click on send and receive.

-You can't see if he is sending or receiving or busy.

-You can't delete mail without having to select them first.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
I am just now trying it. Swype is giving me problems doubling up on the 1st letter of words. I can figure out how to add an email address that starts with a number. I read in the manual only words that start and end with a letter can be added. If I highlight the address, no plus sign appears. If that's the case, back to Swype.

Swype dictionary editing is a huge plus.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] smjfosho:
it probably is possible, i wanted to add this to the other thread but couldnt cause it was locked, sense has been ported to the moto droid, which is not an htc device.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] killerskincanoe:
good god there's already a thread in android dev about it. how many damn thread on this do we need?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] waleed786:
good god theres there's already so many complaining posts like this everywhere. How many damn complainers do we need? Why not just give a straight answer?

Once they root the X10, it might be possible to port the HTC desire ROM onto the X10, which includes HTC sense. But that would also take away timescape and mediascape. But again, none of this is possible until we get it rooted.

Theres an in the market called beautiful widgets, which is HTC sense like widgets, check it out

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] imugur:
This is a forum for Xperia users. Since you cannot have everything on one vendor it would be good to combine the goodies the others have. So, Sense is nice but HTC phones are not the best maybe :-)

i love SE X10 esp the design and i like HTC sense UI as well but i don't like its design..

having an android phone means we get to explore it isn't? liked htc sense ui does not necessarily means we have to buy htc does it? :p
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] vrs2610:
Heres what you can do

Get the latest ADW launcher then after set it up like sense, THEN download the HTC Sense theme from the market. This will give you the "leap" preview thing and much much more.

For the clock weather thing download beautiful widgets, or an older version of Fany Widgets. Just Remember to ignore them if your going to use a task manager.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thunderpossuem:
Fany widgets sounds amazing
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] chongbh:
I agree and the reason I don't go for HTC Desire is because of the design and outdated camera.

HTC Desire is like any of its other phone like Legend, Tattoo etc and it is still a 5 Megapixel camera and in terms of Android phone, SE has a better camera beside Motorola but it as a slow processor over X10.
