[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Hey all, I am an iphone convert. Recently purchased the HTC outright. Great phone. Coming from a jailbroken iphone there are a couple of features that I miss. They're not deal breakers but they are really convenient in my opinion..

I love using my phones as a media player. And although there's no equalizer on the desire, I think the quality is pretty good assuming you're using reasonable earphones.

I found an app on cydia for iphone which reassigned my volume rocker.

If I just tap the volume up or down, it changed the volume as normal.

If I hold the volume key up or down, it skipped the track forwards or backwards.

I was hopeful that a developer might see this as a good addition to the Desire and be able to emulate such a function for the volume keys.

Thanks!
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Hmm i'm guessing that you don't use the stock headphones with inline controls then. I'm hoping when the device is rooted a lot of hacks should surface. I want to use the optical trackpad press to bring up the lockscreen for instance. And a flashlight app that actually uses the flash and not a bright white screen lol.
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
nope. Those earphones are way to large for my ears! I can't even fit the buggers in!

But I agree, being able to wake the phone with the trackpad is a must.

Here's hoping sooner rather than later :)
[Desire General] jayshah:
Grab the application "No Lock" from the market - works perfectly on my Desire.

:D

Excellent idea. There is currently application with proves key rebinding is possible without root (Tasker), unfortunately it doesn't have volume keys and I do not have time now to try implementing a solution for this.

I will personally look into this in a month (extremely busy atm) as a hobby, and hopefully the device will have been rooted by then making this definitely possible. I'm not an amazing dev., but I can hack around to make things work :p
[Desire General] djind:
Went from Dream to iphone, but Android pulled me back with the Desire.

We are all waiting for root indeed! Shouldn't take too long I reckon. It is definately a must to wake up on menu/trackpad or home key. Anyone has some ideas?

No lock also bypasses the lockpattern, too bad. And it looks as if it runs in the background and only turns off the screen. Feels like it wil drain the battery, but maybe I am mistaking.
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
NoLock is okay, but any key turns the screen on. This could be a pain if it's in your pocket and you accidentally press the volume keys, for instance.

When I had the tweak that allowed me to skip tracks with the volume keys, it took away most of my needs to turn the screen simply to skip tracks. This helped save the battery.

Not only that, it also helps if you are running a different application. You wouldn't need to go back to the home screen to use the widget.

Just a couple more benefits :)
[Desire General] Bricolo_fr:
Hi all,

My 1st post on xda :)

I'm no developer, and haven't coded anything since ages, but after some digging I think may be possible to implement such a feature.

According to the android developer reference on (sorry, I'm a new user so I can't post links)

KeyEvent

KeyEvent.Callback #onKeyDown

Dialog #onKeyDown

And those forums (search for this on google)

anddev org disable_volume_keys-t10191.html

google groups android developers Long-press hard volume keys

Tell me if I'm wrong, but those links indicate that it is possible to replace the behavior of a key press ("intercepting" it before it gets interpreted by the system that changes the volume setting). Then once you intercepted it, you can check if it is a normal key press (short), in which case you would still allow to "forward" the information to the system. BUT, if you detected that it is a long press, you activate the action "next track" and do not forward the volume information to the system.

Something like (syntax is nor correct, of course)

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) // the way I understand this line, it will replace the default behavior of the onKeyDown routine
{
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN // if the key pressed down is vol_down
...
if the key press is long // don't know the code for that
do the action for next track
return true; // means that you do not forward the keypress to the system
else // if the keypress is not long
return false; // you have not intercepted the keypress, so you forward it to the system
...
else return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event); // if any other key is pressed, forward it directly
}

Any opinions on that? Is the xda forum the right place to talk about code, or are other forums more suited to discuss about that?
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Interesting..

If the code looks like that I might have to take up a hobby in learning how to code. It doesn't appear to be tooo difficult at all.

It does look like you may be on the right track there Bricolo_fr..

Cheers for looking into it.

Drew.
[Desire General] FloatingFatMan:
I see a potential problem though. You'd need to know what media playback program is actually being used, and it needs to support receiving messages from other programs so that you can tell it to skip to the next track. This might even require different coding for every player program available, if they receive messages in different ways.

In other words, you could end up having to write your own media player program.
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Ok, well surely there must be a simple solution?

Why can't we say create an app where you could select which media player you are using (only have a few of the main ones) then we would be able to amend the code as per which option they select before it was implemented?
[Desire General] FloatingFatMan:
Sure you can do that; buy you'd have to examine each of those apps, work out if they accept messages, and work out what format said messages need to actually be in.

One would hope they would implement standard interfaces, but that's all it is, a hope.
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Well personally, I use the stock player. It ain't the best but it gets the job done. So if it was just created for that at least I'd be more than happy :)
[Desire General] Bricolo_fr:
Thanks for the comments.

FloatingFatMan you are indeed right. I didn't know that all media players don't behave the same. So not all of them accept incoming messages, and not with the same protocol? Hum...

Does that mean that widgets for media player control are only compatible with a specific media player, also?

About the code itself, do you guys think can work?

I'm quite new here, is xda a place about writing code or should we discuss that in another place where people are more used to that?

Cheers
[Desire General] Bricolo_fr:
now that the Desire can be rooted...

on the Nexus one (probably other devices too) with the cyanogenmod roms, this feature is availale. just long press vol+ or vol- and you get next/prev track

can this be done with a moded rom on the desire also? what kind of changes need to be applied to the stock rom to add this function?
[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Agreed. am really liking forward to his feature now the phone is rooted.
[Desire General] qsdf55:

[Desire General] pascanu:
Another excellent example that long press on a hardkey can be implemented without root is Quick Settings (great app btw): it can be brought up anytime, no matter what app you are running by longpressing the search key.

[Desire General] ediflyer:
Apologies as I know it's a bit OT for this thread, but just wanted to make sure you were aware of the LED Desire Light app (http://www.appbrain.com/app/nostovic.android.desire.ledLight) - the latest version even has a nice wee widget to put the flash on/off, but the main app also offers SOS and turning text into Morse code!! :)
[Desire General] devein:
oxygen mod - based on cyanogen has:

it works with screen locked.

Hi,

did anybody experienced such a strange event ? : I configured 4 e-mail accounts on my hd2/Leo, and after about 20 days they disappeared.....so that I had to set them again .

Also disappeared the WPA password of my access-point...

Thanks for your interested.

My ROM is :Italian ROm Ver 1.66
[HD2 General] Prerna:
Same here! I got a weird issue today morning after rebooting: my Exchange, all SMS and Gmail' account got totally empty. Actually the Gmail' account disappeared completely, while the Exchange' settings are still here but no email! I run Topix 1.5.6 (21865) since about 6 weeks without any issue, not installed any unusual app. All other settings are still here in the device (RSS, weather, etc.)

Fisrt time I ever come across an issue like this one since almost 8 years I use HTCs.
[HD2 General] operative1:
same here.

lost 2 imap accounts, exchange won't sync.

sms still there
[HD2 General] pinuccio:
E-mail Account disappeared from HD2

Yes,exactly,

The SMS were in place....only Gmail,and 3 POP3 accounts.

Also the WIFI passwords ....disappeared...

I'm using official HTC italian ROM Ver 1.66....
[HD2 General] alex fung:
If you lose your email accounts and wifi passwords, it is likely you have installed Swype 3.9. There are two CABs for 3.9 out there, one of them will destroy your phone identity. There is no cure.
[HD2 General] Prerna:
dont know about others, but my wifi pw is fine, and I never heard ow Swype.

+ all of my sms are gone too.

i could fix the MS Exxhange issue by simply deselect the email' sync in activesync, and then reselect it.
[HD2 General] DomZ:
Did you use the item "Reset" in your device ?

I tought that it does only a soft reset but this one has killed all my settings too.

I will never use it again right now.

I indeed do use the "reset" button regularly since months and I never encountered an issue before.

[HD2 General] sike222:
well this sux i downloaded swype last night via this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6322818#post6322818 it did not work but it did lose me all my wifi p/w and all my email accounts as well as my mobile internet. i am slowly getting it back. So what is the deal with swype then?
[HD2 General] Agoattamer:
I have had this happen a few times. And it was not always swype. Pulling the battery also did it for me. And so did installing co0kies Home Tab. One time I lost network settings. I just had to hit edit network connection and then save it. All times router security code and emails lose their settings. I have found an easy way to restore my emails next time this happens. I found a free app called Mail Account Repair.

I save the exe file on my storage card in a folder called email repair. Run the file and it sees your email accounts. For each account just fill in the settings and hit repair. Now your email accounts are saved. If they disappear again then just run that exe file and hit repair.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to learn how to back up my phones ROM from the WIKI cos I'm a n00b but the guide in there ain't as simple or straightforward as it makes out to be.

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3078601&postcount=4

Step 4 is wrong or there are some pre-requisites to this guide missing.

Sorry to post new thread but I tried to use the WIKI for what I need and it ain't cutting it.

Can anyone please help me out by updating the WIKI or giving better instructions on how to do this?

No they're not correct ... where are the steps about adding the itsutils.dll to the device? I had to look at another forum (as in different to xda-developers) to find that out, plus step 4 would also make sense if it said "pdocread -l" instead of "itsutils -l".

What is the point of making a WIKI if it aint compatible for n00bs?

Estrongs file explorer can mount windows smb shares directly from the phone, with the user name and password, of a valid user that has access to the shared volumes.

Tested in win7 ultimate 64bit and vista with an htc desire.

You can't use the pc's netbios name to access the shares, instead you need to use its IP address in the estrongs dialog.
[Android Apps and Games] Balos:
I have an stream portal running on my computer. Jinzora. But when I clicked on the download in Inbuild browser. Nothing happened. I tried with Opera Mini then and it opened a download but it never started to transfer. So I have to try to run apache on the phone itself.
[Android Apps and Games] Balos:
Will try that to but I'm not sure what smb shares are. Are this normal shares when you click right click on a drive and share with advanced settings?

I dont have any users set. Just Everyone under premissions.

I actually always had problems to setup shares since Vista and upwards. Funny in XP they worked fine. Not parcticually with Win-Phone, but WInXP-WinXP.

It's a bit beyond the scope of this forum, but to create a new user or modify an existing one :

Open control panel and click user accounts, if there is a user already in the system (most likely there is), just create a password for him.

Logging through the network with the above credentials will give you access to the users home folder (C:\users\"username" without the quotes) by default.
