only for N1 and Droid. On the nexus it lags a ton.

It's being fixed I guess.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hiddengopher:
I'll check that one out and maybe do a review :D Thanks for your input
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sahhar1993:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
the whole concept of Asphalt 5 is just awesome. Love the cars (and bikes!) and the tracks... unfortunately it lags way too much on N1

I hope they work on it... heard it has just been ported from iPhone, so it needs some serious tweaking for N1...

praying...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] strikerx312:
yea i agree the game is awesome just that dam lag kills it
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Andrewtst:
Definately Asphalt 5 version 3.0.8 :D

Running smooth in Nexus One CM 5.0.5.3 with OCed - UVed: -1.113Ghz - 8MB extra ram + Neon Simb.

If you facing a strong lagging, that is due to version 3.0.7, version 3.0.8 fixed a lot and perform much much more better than previous version.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
i have 3.0.8 installed and it still lags hell in certain turns and with heavy traffic.

i am not ready to install a kernel with >1Ghz etc.

Very honestly the devs should get the app optimized for Nexus One.

It isn't enough to port a game from one phone (iPhone) to another (Nexus) without platform-specific tweaks and optimizations --- it may be good enough for those that like to push their CPU to the limits, but it's just not working for those with stock phones.

Raging Thunder 2 works smooth enough - so Asphalt 5 could do too, if the devs just wanted it to...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
besides... Asphalt 5 is 6.99 US$... a lot of money for a game that currently requires your processor to run over 1Ghz, and RAM tweaks...

that's just a deal-breaker.

I keep it installed and wait patiently for the devs to provide an update
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jlevy73:
I completely agree. The Devs even admitted this issue and yet there latest release 3.0.8 is barely what I would call a fix. My wife has an iPhone and it definitely is awesome on that. Unfortunately the N1 has different hardware. Just another way for devs to make a cheap buck.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] behelit:
exzeus is a nice 3D game
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Andrewtst:
I agree Asphalt 5 still need some tweaking, as it still running smoother in Motorola Milestone than Nexus One.

And come on please don't compared with iPhone, iPhone only 320 resolution but Nexus One is 800 resolution. Nexus One is nearly twice the resolution of iPhone.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] RinTinTigger:
HRB 3d is the best :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] t0mmy:
+1 for homerun battle 3d.. i'm kinda addicted to that game. if you check their site, their releasing a 3d rpg which should be sick.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
we are not comparing N1 with iPhone --- we are pointing out that the game was simply ported and not tweaked with N1 in mind - i call that lazy programming!

what good is it if N1 has 800 resolution, and iPhone only 320 if the same game runs crappy on the first, and great on the second?

N1 is awesome - the programmers have to do their job properly - especially since they charge 6.99$ for it. period
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jlevy73:
Well said!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] BlueScreenJunky:
From what I understand the Motorola Milestone has a dedicated GPU to handle graphics whereas the Nexus One has not, so even if the Snapdragon is faster than the Droid/Milestone's CPU, as far as 3D graphics are concerned the N1 will never do as good as a Milestone.

The game could be "tweaked" to lower the graphic details though, I don't see the point of releasing a game that only one phone on the market will run decently :-/
[HD2 General] hitman4485:
I have searched and found a thread but it wasnt very clear on what to do. i tried to move the message from the sim to the phone and then delete however after i turn the device off then back on the messages are still there, becomes quite annoying
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
so here we go, i proudly present: the

VillainROM Kitchen!

i wrote this up completely from scratch, so please be gentle when it isn't perfect at the beginning :roll:

also we were not able to test every rom combination, as there are

millions

of different roms possible...

please note the faq link on the lower right side. if any questions arise pleask them here, i will update the faq from time to time.

final note: i'd like to emphasize that i created this kitchen myself, and it was a buttload of work. however i did NOT create the rom or any of the apps or modifications that come with it (with the exception of minor fixes or changes). nathan is and will be the rom developer/maintainer, and there are other parts created by other people, for example the themes. i don't want to start a long list of thanks and credits, and i take care not to include warez. there are several other reasons why something should or should not be included in the kitchen, so if you feel that your app is used here without permission or credit please contact me. also let me know if you'd like to contribute, be it in form of a simple bootscreen or a great app... :)

you find the kitchen at http://www.villainrom.co.uk/kitchen/ or in the rom section of the villainrom board.

now have fun with the kitchen!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] raecarter82:
Hi for all noobs/about to donate folk can you let us know exactly what a kitchen is please.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
you can select options you want to include, for example apps or themes. then our kitchen will create the rom for you, you download and flash it. no need to figure out what adb is and how to remove or add stuff to the rom. check the link, it should be self explanatory! :)

also you can create a keyboard layout config file if you are using villain5.2 or other roms with the hacked keyboard from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=624416

the keyboard layout feature is free to all members of villainrom.co.uk btw.

Hello everyone

I flashed a rom on my Smartflip, after having unlocked the cid.

Everything worked well, but the first reboot has been fixed on the screen Win Mobile 6.1 and after a SR, not open more windows mobile screen. If I press the power button nothing happens, black screen. I put it in bootloader leaves the writing USB but the PC does not detect it, help please.

Sorry for my English, I'm Italian.

How to flash the moto XT800's radio to the moto droid?:confused:
[Desire General] Sethos II:
Hey, another question...

Is there a way to get the Nexus One's animation for opening programs on the Desire?

Installing the Launcher2.apk unfortunately didn't do it. Maybe there's another version of it with the animations?

Or is there any other way to do it?
[Desire General] DocRambone:
Not before root access has been released
[Desire General] Sethos II:
And when/if root access is possible, how will it be done, then?
[Desire General] slaming:
well i don't know for sure but probably just changing a file in the root file system
[Desire General] Sethos II:
Thanks. I hope somebody can figure it out.
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
You'd have to flash a new bootscreen, not hard, needs root.
[Desire General] Sethos II:
No, I don't mean the bootscreen. I mean the animation when opening apps from the home screen.
[Desire General] Quazar0:
I read somewhere that its currently exclusive to the nexus one 2.1 but it will be as standard in froyo. Maybe we'll have to wait til froyo is out (unless you want to root)
[Desire General] Sethos II:
It's available on the Motorola Droid as well.
[Desire General] Quazar0:
Wow, didn't know that! If the droid has it, we should have it too!
[Desire General] Sethos II:
We definitely should have it. It's soo nice, I miss it since I exchanged the Nexus for a Desire. :(
[Desire General] XDA mark:
You are NOT talking about the bootscreen are you? You mean that when you open an app, it 'fades in' and 'fades out'? (like on the iPhone?)

From what I know, but then again may be removed from the Desire, you must go to options, screen options and somewhere in these options there is a 'animation' option.

Please see this vid and around 3:30, he shows how to turn on that 'animation'.

Now I do not know if this is what you are talking about, but even if it is not, could somebody please tell me if this option is also present on the Desire?
[Desire General] Sethos II:
Yes.

Yes, that option is present, but only activates the screen transitions inside of apps, but not the launch animation. On the Nexus and Droid, it activates ALL animations.

It seems HTC have taken those animations out. I really don't understand why, and I want them back. :(
[Desire General] XDA mark:
NOEZ! :eek:

I can't believe this... slowly there are more and more things that make me be unsure about the Desire. First the battery life, second the bad sound volume and now I hear that the awesome 'launch' fade-in and out a la iPhone animation is not present.

Could somebody tell me if this can be changed after rooting the Desire? Which btw, is something like 'jailbreaking' your iPhone right? Is it hard to root a device running Android like the Desire?
[Desire General] Sethos II:
Battery life is quite good, about the same as the HD2 I had before. I also have no complaints about the sound volume, don't know what people are talking about.

Only complaints I have are the missing animations and the limited internal storage (since it still can't be rooted).

I'm really happy with the device apart from that. It's so much nicer with Android, than the HD2 was.
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
Jailbreaking = Technically Illegal

Rooting = Enabling the root account on a linux system (aka Administrator).

It should be available in "Spare Parts" after rooting.
[Desire General] FloatingFatMan:
No, it is NOT illegal. It's merely a breach of the EULA; which has bugger all to do with legalities. The worst that can happen is that you invalidate your warranty by "jailbreaking". (I hate that term as well, it's merely CID and SIM unlocking, something we've being doing on XDA for years, but nooooo.... Apple users just HAVE to have their own word for it, as if they invented the whole concept...)
[Desire General] Quazar0:
I'm hoping HTC enable it in an update. Any chance of that happening?
[Desire General] shaundalglish:
Now that it's rooted, does anyone know how we could get it?
[Desire General] wardy277:
I noticed in the video posted that even after the nexus one enabled all animations it didn't have the "zoom" animation from within the settings (like going from main settings list to the wireless or sound and display menu)

Is it possible to have the zoom animation everywhere, i am sure i has this before with other roms. It may have been called moto blur or just blur animations?

Chris
[Desire General] shaundalglish:
The solution is replacing Sense with LauncherPro.
[Desire General] weirdwilli:
Spot on, been using it for a while now and it's ace, runs smoother than Sense too :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] RKnight1983:
I remember a thread a week or so about this as well and do'nt remember ever seeing anything come of it. I myself would like to see something like this for Windows Mobile. I think it would be really cool to be able to incorporate it into S2U2 so maybe A_C can hook us up with this option instead of the slide to unlock in a future build? I maybe just dreaming here though.
[Nexus One General] mudrock1000:
Or bypass it or anything. Sending videos is something I actually do use alot and as a musician it is something that becomes very helpful to me and not having it bothers me alot.

I'd have to check what plan I put myself on but i bought mine unsubsidized and I'm on the flexpay I think. Is that parrt of the problem?
[Nexus One General] masse1369:
No Flex Pay isn't different for anything except when you pay your bill and credit lines.
[Nexus One General] mudrock1000:
Well I can't send videos or other large files so what's the problem.
[Nexus One General] antoniouslj:
you can't send large files over 3G... don't know if it's an android limitation or t-mobile...

i've only had luck uploading large files over wifi...
[Nexus One General] minogue:
Videos sent through text are limited, however if you send it through gmail it put it on YouTube r, it has to be under 10mb Over 3g, or bigger files require a WiFi connection
[Nexus One General] shograt:
Worth noting, there's another difference between FlexPay and 'normal'; on FlexPay, you can't change your forwarding #'s, so you can't use google voice as your answering service.

It's what prompted me to switch from FlexPay to normal. Took 4 hours of customer service to determine that this was the cause.
[Nexus One General] psylink:
last year, it took me about 5 hrs over 3 seperate days for them to figure it out

[Nexus One General] mudrock1000:
So my question is it possible to send videos to another mobile device via MMS? In ANY WAY?
[Nexus One General] masse1369:
Good to know about with Flex and forwarding numbers. Didn't know that.

[HD2 General] southcarolinacowboy:
I have searched this entire site for a couple of days now and have yet to find what I'm looking for so I appologize if there is another thread out there like this one. I'd like to thank you guys first of all for all of the tweaks and hacks. I have had my hd2 for just over two weeks now and I was about to give it back but after I added all these hacks and tweaks and saw just what this phone was capable of, I'm definitely gonna hold onto it a while. During all of my searching I've learned a bit more about hacking the registry.The hd2 comes with a certain number of icons in the bottom curtain that slide back and forth. Well I don't use twitter, but love facebook. I have been trying to get facebook in the options to add it to the slider menu in the bottom curtain. Some of the registry files are located in hklm\software\htc\manila. I would appreciate any advice on how to edit the registry to achieve this. thanks in advance.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
Did you downlaod the right recovery image? There is the one with the g and the h on the end, make sure you downloaded the correct one and reflash.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] numba1guju:
at the moment i have the recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img...thats the one i need for the supereclair rom i want to put on my phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
Any custom recovery that allows flashing a zip from recovery can be used to install a rom, but at the end of the name of the recovery does it say g or h?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] numba1guju:
it doesnt have anything at the end of it...no g or h...go read for yourself

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=654284

go down to where it says recovery-RA-... or recovery-RA...

and according to what i read for the hero recovery you have to have 6.35 radio and 1.76.2007 spl...so i know that not any recovery can be used...all depends on what radio and spl the ROM requires
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
Turn your phone off, hold volume down and power, it will show some info at the top(radio etc etc) the top line will say "pvt ship s on g" for example or "ship s on h" for example, the h and g are obviously what you want to pay attention to, if it says h , flash amun ras h recovery, if it says g, flash his g recovery. Both are located here
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] numba1guju:
sorry but i have spl 1.76 and according to Amon Ra's page it says

"32A users with SPL 1.76.x should flash the Hero version!" in big red letters at the top

[General Questions and Answers] Badwolve1:
Have a look at NBIMG, it converts BMP to NBH :D
[Desire General] Ian-OG:
I'm expecting delivery of the Desire soon, having had a range of WM5, WM6 and WM6.1 handsets so far. Now one of the big problems I experienced with WM was the inability of the OS to protect itself from deep-level rogue code -one app from the Windows Marketplace screwed the last phone considerably, leading to a series of crashes, black screens with ominous warnings about not powering off correctly and so on. Thankfully I had Sprite Backup to haul back a working fileset. On the whole it felt as wobbly as a Win98 install with the wrong version of several core files.

How does the Android OS protect itself from rogue stuff? (especially the newest 2.1 release in the Desire, if it's any different from earlier versions). Does it sandbox the apps and do some heavy brokering of any multitasking? There are thousands of apps to try and I'd rather not knacker things up if one turns out to be a bit flaky...

I've used Linux for years (have mostly had Kubuntu for the past 2yrs, though used to run Suse, Slackware and ZipSlack) and have busted a Linux install just by adding the nVidia kernel drivers - I think that was within a minute of first boot in that case:rolleyes:. I know that root access is needed for these sorts of mods - what's the score there on Android handsets?

BTW - couldn't find anything about this on the Search, and am dropping it here because I'm getting the Desire - apologies to Mods if it belongs somewhere else!
[Desire General] lazarus99:
- in the market you will see bad ratings and comments if an app is really malicious (obviously the developers can't edit/delete comments from the market)

- apps don't have root access so they can't alter data on the system partition.

- apps need to have permission declared in order to have access to some functions, for example if an app is sending text messages, or modifying contact data you will see this when you install the app
[Desire General] Ian-OG:
Thanks. I always treat the user ratings with a pinch of salt - the one that messed my Raphael up was a 4*-rated app! I think the thing there was that WM doesn't protect the OS in any special way, and I'm glad that Android is using partitions. Sounds just like a standard Linux distro in that respect, most of which will create 3 partitions unless told otherwise.
[Desire General] salahag:
Yeah I guess if the app has no root access, then no serious harm can be done to the phone.

Also, try to create a habbit of checking what permissions the app has before installing it. That shows just before installing, or press Menu and then Security. For example, a Game will not need access to contacts, or make calls... etc.

Before I install something I heard nothing about, I always scroll users comments and look for low ratings and see what they have to say about it. But remember that old comments (good or bad) sometimes don't count as apps get updated.

The Market should show when the application was last updated by the developer. I think Apple store already shows that.
[Desire General] Ian-OG:
Cheers! I'll check it out just as soon as the new phone gets here! Normally I'm dead paranoid about stuff, and don't let anything out to play unless I'm sure - maybe I'm letting one bad installation colour things a bit too much...
