[neoTouch S200 Themes and Apps] veethree:
If the situation is anything like the F900 I used to have, it's because the S200 is not recognised as a compatible device by TomTom. Ridiculous, considering how well the software actually runs on the device, but there it is. You will have to resort to *ahem* "alternative" methods to update any maps you have on it.

I've not played with the Acer but you may need to connect in disk drive mode instead of normal sync and then start TOMTOM home.

Hi,

A lot of the time I switch between applications, but I have 2 with which I can't seem to do this. Worst of all run.gps (I really would like to be able to get to my pocketplayer to change station/playlist/number...), but I see the same behavior when running iGo8.

I have spb mobile shell and a shortcut to the task manager in home screen, this is how I switch between programs, pressing the home button, opening task manager, clicking the program I want on foreground.

When I have run.gps (or iGo8, same thing) open and press the home button, it seems to want to go to the home screen, the start button and upper bar appear for a moment, but it jumps back to run.gps (or iGo8) on the foreground.

Any ideas on why this happens? Somewhere a registry edit or something to change this behavior?

TIA

I'm having the same problem with iGo. I'd also love to know if there was some way to get around this....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tyguy:
Could be interesting to know what ROM and iGO versions you are running!

I can switch between apps with iGO or google maps open as long as I don't try to use Opera10 which refuses to start OR is getting closed if I have it open and start iGO.

Hello,

my HD2 reboots automaticly when it has some work to do (watchin flash-video withc Skyfire or using Igo8).

After about 5 minutes it reboots by its own.

some days ago it works fine.

already flashed the ROM again (Vodafone 1.72).

Has anyone any idea?

Greetz,

Michael

Hey, I got the same problem and I also mention that my GPS doesnt work either, I think there's some issue with the battery or hardware parts. I may send my phone back to store because I have been flashing many ROMs, Radios but didnt help.
[Touch Cruise General] mikey73:
Hi guys

I'm running with PCarvalho's (23547) rom at the moment and was wondering if it is possible to have a location on the weather tab that updates the five-day forecast automatically depending on where you are at the time. What I mean is to make it perform in pretty much the same way as the location on the Home tab does. I've done some searching on the subject but didn't come up with any results.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Cheers

Hey all,

Have my phone on Vibrate and when I receive a Google mail the phone isn't vibrating and the LED isn't flashing. As far as I can see all options in Google mail and the phone settings suggest I should be getting both.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Russ
[Desire General] roakes:
Hmmmmm a reboot seems to have fixed this, lets hope it doesn't get into a habit of it
[Desire General] barcode99:
didn't work for me, rebooted, but still no vibrate on new SMS, light flashing, tho
[Desire General] Quist:
Apologize for cross-posting, but I'm getting frustrated with this. A reboot didn't help me either.

Everything was working before, but just today I noticed it refused to vibrate on email notifications. WinMo used to have a similar annoying bug, but it was related to replies. This bug is affecting all messaging notifications, i.e. Exchange, pop3, Gmail and SMS.

I've gone in to general settings and put vibrate on. I've gone into each account and turned vibrate on. I've gone into Messaging (SMS) and turned vibrate on. Vibrate is basically turned on throughout the system, but it's still not vibrating except for phone calls.

I've uninstalled all of the last apps I had installed to no avail.

Anyone with any advice?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Last resort could be hard reset
[Desire General] Quist:
Not really keen on hard reseting, but will try that as a last resort.
[Desire General] Quist:
I ended up fixing it with a hard reset.

First time around, I chose to reinstall the settings from the auto backup that was on the SD card, but I experienced the same behaviour.

Redid the hard reset and opted for cancel when asked about reinstalling the backup settings and all seems well so far.

Suspect it was a dodgy app or could have been that running the battery down flips a software switch to turn off vibrations, but the switch has a hard time flipping back. Will wait and see how long I can keep the vibrating notifications, but now I know how to solve it.

On another note, talk about a waste with that auto backup function. I mean, to really be useful you should be able to choose when it backs up and which backup you want to reinstall. Having it constantly backup settings like it does is bound to backup whatever went wrong in the first place. Oh well.
[Android Software Development] haichau_it:
Hi all!

I have a problem when develop Android application. I want to allow user change application's background at run-time (it looks like the way we change desktop background on PC). User can select a picture that they like (via file browser) to set background. I don't know how to do that. Help me please.

Thanks for reading.
[Android Software Development] janfsd:
YOu should check stackoverflow.com . It is the official android support for developers.

Here is a similar question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2482848/how-to-change-current-theme-at-runtime-in-android

Basically you will need to create a style indicating the background to use. And in runtime you should be able to get a value from the user preferences and set the them of the activity accordingly, using setTheme in onCreate (before calling setContentView). AFAIK you will have to do this in all your activities, there's no simple way to do it for all your application, unless it is before runtime.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tinushighlander:
Dear All,

i'm sorry if i'm asking somthing that has already been threaded, I searched and couldn't find it but search could have been (too) quick.

I would very much like to run the app called midomi but none of the versions that I find here at XDA-dev works on my Touch PRO (yesterday installed the TAEL rom and again no result)

the reg. tweak that should be made was already ok so that's not the problem. Found a version with working menu button so that's also not the problem. In "Select Network" i choose "Wap"

befor flashing the rom it kept saing "recording error" now it says "Network error. Please try again."

does Anyone have experience with Midomi on TouchPRO / TAEL Rom? know what I do wrong, what I should edit / change...

thanks in advance!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Need a little more info here... what errors, at what point do you get said errors.

Here's what I've been able to dig up

You need to create a gold card with these Instructions to get access to bootloader. After that, you just need to flash RC 7 (using DREAM.nbh). You can follow the directions here.

Good luck.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Many people installing the outstanding Cookie Home Tab don't like the default style of the battery icons and signal bars installed by CHT. Of course the graphics installed by CHT have to be with a default style, like the original taskbar icons.

This is a rework of the file 6467A103_manila installed by CHT with battery and signal bar modded to fit with my taskbar:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=580568

I made two versions of the cab and the only difference is the locker icon in the home page. This mod changes also the page indicator of CHT.

This is a screen of the file 6467A103_manila skinned:

And these are the results:

Version1

Version2

NOTE:

Probably this will be a temporary mod. As you can see the battery indicator icons don't show the level in steps of 1%. This is due to the fact that Co0kieMonster used for his CHT Manila Locker from Kisja & Amarullz.

Co0kieMonster for the next releases of CHT will try a way (hope there will be :)) to use the icons of phcanOverbmp.dll, so there will be no more the need to "skin" this file to match with the taskbar is used, because the icons will be the same of the ones used for the taskbar. I really hope that the monster wich Co0kieMonster is :D, will find a way to do it.

Have fun(k) :D

I thought I already gave it to you together with the taskbar these last days, but maybe I'm wrong...

Anyway, I'm glad you like them. By the way, I made this file about 3 months ago...do you remember when I sent you my WVGA port of Manila Locker 2.1?

This file was already inside the cab. About the CHT page indicators...that's another story that you already know it well :D

I have US stock rom, and I have Cookies 1.7 installed on my phone.

any idea what I did wrong or I'm missing?

[Android Software Development] LINGYI:
Hi,all!

I am now beginning a multimedia project (audio/video... player) on android platform. But android 2.1's codec support is rather limited (androidappdocs.appspot.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html). It's required to do some extension development to support more codec, ape, flac,rm, rmvb,for example. I ran around the net for the whole day, but i failed to find any related referrence and source code.

so my question: is there some open project do the same or similar things? i need some open source code to study!

i hope there would be some experienced guys give some tips for development! Thanks in advance!

[Android Software Development] Robodude288:
I'm thinking it would be better to port mplayer its a bit hevier but in my experience it's more reliable/stable.

look around i think someone got mplayer running and decoding video but was strugling with acctually displaying it. my guess is you would need some sort of java front in to tie it to the android display system unless you could go through opengl or something
[Nexus One Android Development] UAE:
Code has been released, check my reply on page 19.

Thank you all for your patience :)

This is the fully arabized rom based on the latest Cyanogen released ROM.

Features:

* All Extra google apps included

* libwebcore updated to latest version from CM github

* Arabized fully (RTL,Reversing issue in some programs (Gmail,iSilo..etc) ,Browsing) on framework level (no libskia changes---it was always like this ;) ).

*Calendar and Gallery 3D apps are now fixed for RTL.

(alot of apps (Quickoffice for instance) have been fixed to, change of implementation :) )

*MMS app has been modified to better handle RTL paragraphs (please comment :) )

Hopefully, I will begin adding this to other ROMs ;P

For this release , be sure to update radio to latest Froyo Radio (found here, courtesy of djmcnz)

DL Link:

http://www.4shared.com/file/IPi_EpcY/update-cm-600-N1-Ar-Signed-Fix.html

Note regarding sending to iPhones and WinMo mobiles:

Be sure to use Anysoftkeyboard (or any other keyboard that doesn't shape the arabic letters on the fly) , other or most arabic keyboards have the shaping algorithm builtin which results in sending the characters "shaped" which is unsupported and not a standard way of storing/transmitting Arabic chars. The shaping should be done on the receiver side not sender side.

Post here for any issues :)

A Log and screenshot will be great

Thanx goes to:

- Steve Kodnik (Cyan) for his great Nexus ROM

- icu-project.org for their Arabic Reshaper code

- Ayman Al Sanad for his libwebcore (Browser library) code

- D Kohen for hits tip regarding Gallery 3D, didnt know that it was also flipping RTL chars :)

Update 16/4/2010: Updated the ROM to the latest version and fixed some issues regarding Arabic Numbers

Update 1/5/2010 : Updated Arabic code, now sending to iPhone and WinMo through messaging services doesn't corrupt letters

Also, some RTL fixes.

Update 28/5/2010 : Updated to latest Cyan N1 ROM 5.0.7.1

Update 21/6/2010 : Updated to latest Cyan N1 ROM 5.0.8, updated Calendar and Gallery3D apps (included) to support RTL chars. Please report bugs :)

Update 15/7/2010 : Updated to latest Cyan N1 ROM 6-RC1, updated MMS app to better handle RTL paragraphs, and also Arabic code to handle most apps with RTL. Please report bugs :)

Update 31/8/2010 : Updated to latest Cyan N1 ROM 6 STABLE. Please report bugs :)

Note: I am not responsible for any damage this does to your phone. Be sure to do a nandroid backup before applying.

Hi!

thx for the work there! great job

it did fix the gmail RTL, but not the calendar.

and is there a fix for both gmail _and_ the sms numbers (with this fix the numbers are inverted)

thx!
[Nexus One Android Development] dudyk:
About the numbers, are Arabic numbers from left to right or right to left?

About the gmail, gmail messages are displayed using the browser.

I rather solve the bugs in the reshaping algorithm I use now than switch to a new one.
[Nexus One Android Development] slimfady:
Okay,

A closer look shows that numbers are showing correctly (Left to Right), except when there's a dot in the number.

eg. 225.00 will show as 00.522
[Nexus One Android Development] dudyk:
Can you post a screenshot?
[Nexus One Android Development] slimfady:
In this picture,

- Numbers that included a dot are being shown in reverse (top and bottom messages)

- Numbers that did not include a dot are showing correctly (middle message)
[Nexus One Android Development] slimfady:
Just realized something,

Making the fonts smaller resolves some of the problems with reversed numbers. Making it even smaller resolved all reverse number problems.

Edit: The same message I posted earlier displays correctly in horizontal mode.

Could the problem be related to text re-flow?
[Nexus One Android Development] daiski:

Finally an open source Arabization effort!
[Nexus One Android Development] lay_forat:
+1 absolutely right :rolleyes:
[Nexus One Android Development] UAE:
Wow, alot of interesting talk has been happening while I was away

:)

And from what I understood from the replies, everyone is waiting for the code release.

Well, let me annouce that by today, I have released the code into my github account. (been working on it for a while)

Check it out : http://github.com/Y6b

Have been working on polishing it for the past several weeks, but due to time contraints (especially if you have a family to tend to, which seems selfish for some ppl as I have read from some replies :confused:), I have postponed releasing it several times. (thats also why I havent released RC2 till now as didnt have time to work on it)

Also noticed that some people dont understand that the android system is licensed with two COMPLETELY different licenses.

The linux kernel included in the android system (which I have not modified for Arabization), is licensed by GPL. Hence, any modification to it must be made public.

The android system (which includes the framework and apps), is licensed by the APACHE2 license. This license was selected by Google for there android system so that if any changes where made to the code, the modifier is not obliged to release the changes (thus HTC Sense, Samsung TouchWiz ...etc are all kept closed, while the linux kernel part is released).

Regarding the quality of the Arabization, keep in mind that this is a one man effort, which should be not compared to a commercial grade Arabization. Spell checks and such are also not part of the Arabization as they are built in the IME application (keyboard app for instance). Also, its free and I dont ask for any incentives :) .

Keep in mind, an internal arabization effort is already underway at Google (yes Google is not "dying" for RTL code as its already working on it), which should be released in Gingerbread soon. This is also why I havent put much effort to make the code "submittalble material" for the AOS project. I much rather modify the code that will be coming out from Google than submitting the whole thing, as I am sure my code is inferior to what Google will be releasing.

Now that the code is released, I hope that you will contribute to it to make it bearable until Google releases their arabization code.

Again, sorry again for being late, but sometimes life becomes much important than my Android System modifications (another reason to release the code, so that it doesn't stop).

Main points that are required to work on:

- Alef lam issue

- Using the ICU4C shaper instead of ICU4J (much faster)

- Additional spaces for arabic shaped text that is being drawn directly by the canvas drawText

- Code cleanup (yes, some cleanup is still required, especially the Staticlayout code)

BTW, the implementation released was made specifically in a way so that it can be added to ANY Android device (by using smali/baksmali).

If you require any help, please dont hesitate to reply or msg me.

I'll try to reply asap.
[Nexus One Android Development] tamarian:
Thanks UAE!
[Nexus One Android Development] magcp:
Dear UAE,

First of all, I would love to thank you for your efforts and even if Google released the code in Gingerbread release but, I'm sure that they are following you guys, in order to catch up with the latest solutions and problems that you have faced.

Furthermore, remember, that you will always find other people who put blames or just pointing fingers, and that's normal, we are people and some aren't patient enough.

You have done a great progress, and I'm really proud of that and above all for free, Really Thank you,

PS: Android won't be great without you guys, I never felt that I'll love an OS after iPhone's OS.
