sushirom isn't aosp. the only 2.1 aosp rom out there is darchdroid. All those other "aosp" roms are just themes, and copy and paste of apks.

Can these Rom developers please make a note on there threads that their rom isn't aosp, unless they actually did compile the rom from aosp source

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Woosh91:
Hi all I'm new to these forums I was told to come and ask question here by overclock.net. Anyways, I just bought the 32B HTC Magic from Vodafone and so far I love the phone but I have a few issues/questions.

1. How long does it take until vodafone will allow me to OTA update from 1.5 to 1.6?

2. My wifi connection keeps dropping, it says it's connected but my browser and android market place and etc aren't loading.

3. The chick at vodafone said that Sense UI was just released by them for the phone :/ as far as I know the 32B doesn't support Sense UI without root and adding a custom rom.

Anyway, please help me out and thanks :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Woosh91:
Just an update I managed to update to 1.6. But my wifi issue still isn't fixed. I really need help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] das_coach:
hey there=)

i don't know much about those android things yet, because i'm quite new to this stuff, too, but i also have a vodafone (germany) magic and i already got the 1.6=P but reasons for your wifi disconnects could be one of the following:

- do you have the 'connected' icon at the top? if not, you're sure youre assigned to the network? does the connection hang at a special point? go to the wifi settings and look if it got an ip

- do you use encryption? if yes, try changing it, some routers seems to cause problems=)

- do you use a static ip or dhcp? try the one you're not using^^

- try disabling your 3g

...sry for my bad english=)

greetz,

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Woosh91:
I fixed it. I played with my router settings until it worked. Now it's fine. All I want to know is if that Vodafone chick was telling the truth about Sense UI.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] das_coach:
dunno about vodafone, but htc released it (can't post the link, but google it, you'll find the official htc page^^), and i don't think they have to root the phone for that, because they have the ability to apply it as an ota=)

I am using meridian player and I thought it was the player problem initially.

What would it matter if there were? Are you trying to port it over? Because Sushi is built off of Fresh, not AOSP so they wouldnt work anyways. So what exactly is your question? Theres a whole section for themes for AOSP ROMs, but youre not running one. ????
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] darchstar:
could you please not be so ignorant, your gunna get all the other n00bs confused on what aosp is. I told you already SushiRom is not Aosp, It's a veiled sensui rom. i don't know why these "rom developers" keep calling their roms aosp when all they did was skin the rom and added apks from a real aosp rom. If you are hell bent on having a theme on your sushi, just flash those themes made for sprint hero leaks, and remove the rosie bits and any other **** that you don't like

Is there a good writeup on the requirements for setting up a 2.1 bootscreen? I've seen some nice 1.5/6 ones and i'd like to port them over the 2.1.

THanks!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danaff37:
i'm pretty sure you can do it the same way.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ogboot:
All of the 1.5 style bootscreens use an xml format with animated gifs, while it seems the 2.1 ones are PNG frames with a dat type control file.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] WarhawkXeroFire:
You can still use the old bootscreens, you just have to remove bootanimation.zip, create a bootscreen folder inside /system/media, then drop your bootscreen in there.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ogboot:
I've flashed zips that do exactly that and they never work for me.

bootanimation.zip removed. reboot.

flash whatever bootscreen. /system/media/bootscreen is created. contains gif, xml, and audio. get blackscreen during boot and not animation.

the only ones I have gotten to work are tailored for 2.1 specifically.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
post one of the zips up and let me take a look at it, maybe something's different in the xml.

And you are on Sprint? Some people have been having troubles if they are not on Sprint.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ogboot:
Thanks Regaw. You're right i'm Cellsouth.

The ones that work for me are folders containing PNG frames and a desc file (no xml). There is a supernova out that works fine and it has this format. I have access to GIMP so i've considered pulling all the frames out of one of the gifs, saving them as PNG and then recreating the directory structure I see in a standard bootanimation.zip. However, I haven't seen a batch method in GIMP for saving the frames as individual PNG files so it would kind of be a pain in the arse. :)

I've tried many of the ones in the 2.1 collection thread, same results every time. phone works great just the black screen during boot.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ogboot:
okkkkkkkkkk...........

so...

Can someone tell me the format for creating a bootanimation.zip that uses a desc file and PNG files? I've looked at the desc file and can obviously see where it has resolution info and references the part folders, hasn't anyone created a bootscreen in this format before though?

Thanks.

So since day one I've used the 1500mah battery for the tp2/imagio/hero and its been running fine, battery drain is still a bit higher than what I'd expect comming from winmo. So I was wondering people who tried both stock and the 1500mah battery, have you noticed any real difference in battery life?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ggranger3:
I am in Michigan and I have an AT&T Tilt flashed with the TPC Elite ROM (V10)from a year ago, with radio 1.70.19.09. It's been working quite well. However, I was tweaking some settings, did a soft reset, and now the phone displays "Phone Off." I have determined that the SIM card is not being read. I swapped SIM cards with another phone, with the same result, and my SIM card works in that phone.

I have been happy with the phone and want to keep it. Is this a likely to be a hardware problem rather than a software issue?

Any help would be appreciated.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
what kind of tweaking...registry? . Have you already check your comm manager to see if your phone radio is on right?

If you still with that problem you should perform a hard reset.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ggranger3:
Tweaking was through Advanced Configuration in the settings-system menu. Yes, I checked the comm manager. I believe the problem is that SIM cards are no longer being read or sensed; I tried another one that worked, but no luck. The radio would not come on, and the IMEI number was not read on that card, either. I tried using a piece of paper wedged between the SIM card and the metal guide for more pressure against the contacts...no luck. I also tried repositioning the 8 contacts for better connection. No luck there, either.

Any other ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ggranger3:
I finally tried the last resort, hard reset, which I was avoiding since I customized a lot of stuff, but it worked. Now I get to play around again.

I'm considering upgrading to the Incredible from my Eris since my NE2 is ready, which brings the cost of the Incredible down to $99 for me, but I'd like to know;

How does it feel?

Does it have any weight to it?

Does the housing fingerprint up easily?

Is the finish glossy, or flat?

I'm not worried about the specs, I know it's a complete overhaul and upgrade from the Eris, I'm just curious about your overall impression of the housing and how it feels to hold it, since my local stores don't have any in stock yet.

TIA
[Droid Incredible General] Schyzm:
I went from the Eris to the Incredible.

The screen and front finish is glossier than the Eris - it will fingerprint more. The back is the same matte black plastic the Eris used. The weight is about the same.

In terms of operation, it's faster, sweeter, and feels like the Eris got cranked up to 11. Totally worth my money, but you'll have to make your own decision.
[Droid Incredible General] .mak:
I'm not a fan of glossy finishes, but I wonder, if otterbox releases a commuter case for it, if that will cover the glossy portion up, hmm...

Thanks for the response, I'm still considering whether or not I want to commit to another 2 years, and hoping I can find some good pictures of that glossy portion of the device.
[Droid Incredible General] Schyzm:
it's the entire front face, sans the optical trackpad.

Give it a few weeks and you shoudl be able to see it in a store - since verizon sold so many of them, they're delaying shipping on new orders anyway.
[Droid Incredible General] .mak:
I won't have to wait if I decide to get it, although I am aware that sales is delayed.

Does it feel as sturdy/solid as the Eris, or does it feel more plasticy/flexible like an Omnia?
[Droid Incredible General] Capt.D:
It has the satiny finish on the back...Feels great...Nice and sturdy...
[Droid Incredible General] dB Zac:
the last HTC phone I had was the Sprint hero and I noticed finger printing was way worse right away. I called HTC and was told the screen is plain Jane glass, no scratch resistance or finger print resistance.

Sent from my ADR6300 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Droid Incredible General] Schyzm:
definitely feels like the Eris, though the balance is different due to the contoured back and projecting camera lens. slightly more top-heavy.

I don't mind the back at all, actually - it's a weight reducer and looks pretty nifty to boot, IMO. ;)
[HD2 General] Hydrad:
Hey all,

After logging on msn, my phone signs out automatically after a short period of time of not using MSN. This is something i want to fix, but can't find any options or settings to do so. I want to be perma logged.

However this is not the issue, the issue is, after my msn logs of automatically, i can't sign up anymore. It either stays trying to sign in or just gives me a message that there are problems with my connection (internet still works when this shows up) and that i should try later.

The only way to fix this, is to reboot my phone. After a while this becomes very annoying and i can't figure out the cause. And of course, after rebooting, msn works but if i don't use it or the phone goes on stand by, this problem reccurs it self everytime.

Anyone that can help? thanks.

Some info on the phone

Unbranded

Manila : 2.5.19211519.0

[HD2 General] kilrah:
That's a known problem wih no solution, just forget the original MSN and use Palringo.
[HD2 General] Elcs:
Second recommendation for Palringo, as Beejive support for Windows Mobile has ceased.

I am having issues with Palringo though. After using Palringo Premium for several months, I have started having a problem with it on my HD2, unbranded using T-Mobile UK.

It connects to Palringo servers, logs into my various messengers and then stays connected for about 30-60 seconds, disconnects from Palringo then reconnects up.

This happens when on WiFi or cabled up to my PC using my home internet connection or using G/3G/HSDPA phone connection. Palringo forums seem to be devoid of help either.

First time in several months that Palringo has became an issue for me and my case seems to be isolated.
[HD2 General] Hydrad:
Oke thanks for the heads up.

I was told to use ebuddy, but that requires Java i think. I believe the HD2 has that, but i can't get type any login information on ebuddy. When i press on the keyboard, no letters appear on screen. So i guess it is a Java issue or something, because i can't get any java games to work either.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] Schyzm:
Speaking as someone who uses their phone pretty darn constantly, I'm in need of a battery that lasts a bit longer than the stock.

currently, Seidio is selling an extended battery (I would link, but as a noob I'm not able to..) 1750 mAh - no new door required, but only a gain of 450 mAh..

Verizon has stated there's a 2150 mAh extended battery coming, but that will almost certainly require a new back plate.

Anyone spotted any other compatible batteries yet?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] JaydenR:
I ordered the Seidio one and while it fits behind the stock cover it also adds a bit of weight, which is great considering how light this bad boy is. ;)
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mcwoods:
Seidio is also going to release a 3500 mAh battery in the near future! According to their website, it adds 3-5 mm of width. But for the extra battery I think it will be worth it. The only problem is I am debating on purchasing this because I had one for my tilt and well it flat out sucked after a month of use.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] blastek:
what do you mean it flat out sucked after a month, the thickness or the capacity of the battery?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mcwoods:
The battery itself would barley last a day if I was lucky. Seidio just said it needed to charge like 8 times before it was full. It didn't kick in. Is this rare?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] g00s3y:
Did you let it fully drain till the phone died, and keep turning the phone on until it wont turn on anymore. Then charge it fully, unplug when it is fully charged, let it get back down to 90-95%, then fully charge again, let die & repeat. Do that a few times and your battery life should be better. This is what I do whenever I get a new phone...
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Drstovetop:
We use LiION Batteries, No special charging required

OK, to start, there is NO NEED to do any special charging conditions with Li Ion batteries, it does not matter how they are charged. A standard battery will have between 400 and 1200 charge cycles before it loses 50% of its capacity (1200 if you charge at 50%, 400 if you charge at 0-10%, like when the phone quits on you). Ni Cadmium on the other hand does require special charging situations but we don't use them in cell phones because of the mass. You can do take the advice of the previous post, but if you do that I would suggest sacrificing a virgin symbian phone or doing a handstand while plugging in your phone to charge. That might increase the battery life too.

Secondly, I spoke with Verizon, and their 2100 mA extended battery will be available soon and it is supposed to fit with the stock backing, probably the best way to go if you ask me, only $60 too. I am checking their site almost daily waiting for this to become available since like many, I need more battery life, I find that I can barely make it through the day without being conservative with the use, and that's on a work day when I'm not on it that much, on the weekends I have to charge it in the afternoon.

If you want to save on battery, turn down the screen brightness, chose a background with as few colors as possible, the more black the less battery you will use since its an AMOLED, blacks mean there is no power being used on the screen. Turn off your GEO locations services both on the phone settings and in programs that run a lot. This will easily save you 25-30% battery life.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] kenkamm:
I was at a Verizon store yesterday asking about it and they showed me their documentation. Their extended battery will come with a new back cover that is slightly raised to fit the larger battery.

I'm waiting for this too because it looks like it will be the most aesthetically pleasing option.

Too bad the guy had NO idea when the accessories were going to become available. Ugh.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Schyzm:
Verizon doesn't trust their employees very much - to prevent leaks, they don't tell people about equipment/accessory release dates til within about two weeks of the actual release. The Incredible launch announcement had one of the longest announcement to release times I've seen the the last two years.
