[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Aschker:
ATM Im working with a HTC Touch diamond and dual booting win 6.5 and adroid 2.0.1(2.1) (looking for the links, so you know exactly wich ones).

Its all working very well, except for the android nuking my battery in 2hours (known issue, I know). But besides the battery issue there is another thing I dont like about android: There are too many (for me) useless programs installed. Atm Im working with a prepaid card so I dont have use for any services using internet.

Now my question: Is there a program around that lets me delete the useless program from the image so they dont show up in the menu? Or is there a way to delete the useless programs from within the booted OS?

Im talking about:

Browser, Email, Car Home(?), Gmail, Talk, News and weather and then Market.

So basically: Is there a rom around with just all harware support up to date and all options but with only the phone functions working? (messages, phone call and maybe allarms)..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lineman78:
I don't know much about what ROMs are available, but I have heard for system roms you can just delete them from the file system. You have to be careful because some programs use other ones for resources(market uses IM for auth, at least in 1.5, not sure about 2+). There are plenty of apps that analyze CPU usage to help you determine what applications are using the most battery. I'm not sure what version it was introduced in, but the OS now has something too(Settings > About Phone > Battery > Battery Use). My office gets very little reception so as of right now Cell standby and Phone idle have used 71% of my battery that has been used so far. It even tells you how much the display has used. I use the Fresh 2.0d ROM and it is relatively naked compared to the Sprint ROM.
[HD2 General] Dano442:
I clicked on the MobiTV icon and it warned me about incurring extra charges from my provider and since I'm on an unlimited data plan, I clicked ok. Then it popped up and said that an updated version was available, do you want to install? So I said yes. Then it gave me the option of saving or running the updated file. I clicked run file and it seemed to install fine but now when I click on the MobiTV icon I get this message, "The file 'MobiTV' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persist, try reinstalling or restoring this file". I went to the MobiTV site and cannot find a download for it. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks, Dano
[HD2 General] Dano442:
Found the problem. I think the problem is the fact that when I installed the update, I installed it accidently to the storage card. I removed it and reinstalled the CAB to the Deivce and all is ok.

can anybody tell me if I will need to re-enter my unlock code on my t-mobile (with an o2 sim at the minute) after I root it and flash a custom rom?

The reason I ask is because I bought the phone unlocked so do not have the unlock code, so dont want to flash a custom rom if its going lock my phone back onto t-mobile!

I was unable to find anything on this subject by searching the forums.

For some reason, I was getting a good 2-3 bars in my house, but for the last couple of days, I'm only getting 2 and sometimes none!

I too would like to add back in the stock pdf viewer. I'm using Fresh 2.1.2, and Flipz has provided a zip of removed apps. I've tried pushing (successfully) the .apk and the .odex files to the /system/app directory. However, when I reboot I get stuck in a boot loop.

Should I be: "adb install /system/app PDFViewer.apk" after having pushed the two files there before rebooting? That doesn't sound right, but it's the only thing I haven't tried. The only thing I can think of is that this app that Flipz provided would only work on 1.5?

Hi :)

Currently web & print designer, I recently felt in love with Android. I will soon switch from Blackberry to a Nexus One.

Thus, I just post a thread to offer my help by designing your apps' layout.

Of course, for free. But in a first time, I will only give my help for apps that will be released for free.

Yeah, I know what you're thinking. But yes, I'm an actual freelance graphic designer, but I don't want to ask money for this. Most of developpers take on their free time to give free apps, and I understand they have no money to give to a designer. This is these developpers I want to help.

Please feel free to visit my portfolio (link in my profile ;))

There isn't apps designing examples, but I hope there will be some soon :p

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions, and same way I'm waiting for your projects ;)

See you soon !

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaVeS:
Before I get hounded about not reading though the forums, I haven't had any luck finding my exact problem. If you just want to post links for me that'd be awesome too!

I bought a rooted phone off ebay for cheap. In the listing it said that the 'home and back' keys didn't work after user rooted the device. When I got it I went through the steps to root it and put a new rom on it. I tried to put several roms on it. Some failed, others didn't boot, so it's back to default (maybe). Now how did I do that if my home key wasn't working? I found out that the home and back key did work if you hit it enough. Currently the back button works. Dial and home are a no go.

I tried to follow steps on how to get Cyan to work, I didn't have any luck except to update the radio. No I haven't installed any custom SPL.

After doing all this, I tried to put a JF image on it, also a ZXDonut. I wiped and put ZXDonut (I think) NOW I have the problem of the Dial (green) and Home keys not work at all. I haven't been able to get into recovery mode at all.

Is there a quick fix for this? Should I just download the DREAIMG.nbh and boot with camera button? Then start over? Try to un-root it, and start from scratch?

I'm not sure what the best move is here, I also tried to reboot into recovery with the terminal but I kept getting permission errors.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3s-rt:
I don't know if I can help with your issue, but....

Type this in terminal to get into recovery:

su

reboot recovery

The su should take away those nasty permissions errors. However, in most recoveries, you need to be able to use your home key. :/
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DefineIndecline:
My G1 has done this a few times with Cyanogenmod. I would just boot into recovery (home would work for that when powered off and not when the phone was on). I would then do a full wipe then reboot. Fixed the problem everytime.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaVeS:
Got into recovery with su † reboot recovery but still can't do anything without the home key. Any other way of doing this?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaVeS:
For some reason I could get the home button to work when I blew cold air into it. Factory Reset, New rom. Works again...

Found a way to do it without factory reset.

For the benefit of anyone else with this problem, here are the full details of how to fix it without a factory reset:

1. Install AnyCut from Android Market

2. Go to the home screen

3. Long press on the wallpaper

4. Tap "Shortcut"

5. Tap "Any Cut"

6. Tap "Activity"

7. Choose "Setup Wizard" from the list of activities

8. Tap "OK"

9. There should now be a Setup Wizard icon on your home screen. Follow the wizard through to completion and the dial / home / hangup hardware keys should now be behaving normally again.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tylerspilker:
I had this problem when flashing the default htc build before updating to SuperD

what fixed it was wiping, using the old (not de-appified) SuperD, then flashing the new one. It causes your talk, home keys to not work, and when you hold down the power it only gives you a few options instead of the normal 4 or so it gives you normally. Also, it makes your settings refuse to save.

Try holding home when you turn the phone on, and wiping and reflashing the newest Cyanogen or something. Read the instructions on how to do that at www.cyanogenmod.com
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshua E.:
I've had this problem several times in the past. Previously the workaround using Anycut would fix the problem. However, after having flashed to CM's 5.07 (Eclair) mod I found that the Setup Wizard didn't function the same any longer (now that you can add multiple gmail accounts) and the fix didn't work this time.

This did, though:

1. Using SUFBS or some other file manager with superuser rights, browse to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases, copy the settings.db file found there to /sdcard.

2. Download SQLite Database Browser from sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser and install.

3. Connect phone to PC, mount sdcard so you can read it from PC (I use "SD Split" so I can read card from PC and phone at the same time, personally).

4. Open SQLite Database Browser, File>Open Database, browse to settings.db file you copied to /sdcard and select it. Click 2nd tab, 'Browse Data'. From 'Table' dropdown menu select 'secure'. Click 'new record'. A new line will be created at the bottom of the table. Double click in the 'name' column of that new line, a box will pop up that says 'edit cell'. Type 'device_provisioned' (without the quotation marks) and click 'apply changes'. Then double click in the 'value' column, enter '1' (no quotes) and click 'apply changes'. File>Save Database.

5. Using SUFBS again, select menu>mount data as RW. Browse to /sdcard and copy the settings.db file you just modified (via longclick>copy), then browse to data/data/com.android.providers.settings, longclick on /databases and choose 'paste', thereby overwriting the settings.db file that's in /databases with the one that you modified using the SQLite Database Browser.

6. Reboot. All should be working now.

[Put them into the root of your SDcard]

1. Turn off Phone

These instructions are so good it's worth requoting the whole lot!!

Thank you thank you.

FWIW, for those who don't have SUFBS, you can do the mount step from a shell, like this:

# mount

rootfs on / type rootfs (ro,noatime,nodiratime)
tmpfs on /dev type tmpfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime,mode=755)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noatime,nodiratime,mode=600)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
none on /acct type cgroup (rw,noatime,nodiratime,cpuacct)
tmpfs on /mnt/asec type tmpfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime,mode=755,gid=1000)
tmpfs on /mnt/obb type tmpfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime,mode=755,gid=1000)
none on /dev/cpuctl type cgroup (rw,noatime,nodiratime,cpu)
/dev/block/mtdblock1 on /system type yaffs2 (ro,noatime,nodiratime)
/dev/block/mtdblock9 on /data type yaffs2 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime)
/dev/block/mtdblock8 on /cache type yaffs2 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime)
tmpfs on /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure type tmpfs (ro,noatime,nodiratime,size=0k,mode=000)

... see how for me it is on mtdblock9

2) remount it read/write:

# mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/mddblock9 /data
mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/mddblock9 /data
#

You can do this via adb shell, or in a terminal emulator.

Yay, my home button is working again!

I'm still debating on which phone to get right now, and wanted some opinion from Nexus One owners. Aside from aesthetic, which is totally personal preferences anyway, should i still get one now that the desire is out? Seeing a lot of people rooted their phones to get the desire rom anyway.

1. Froyo update before anyone else.

2. You hate Sense UI

Anymore? 0.o
[Nexus One General] shep211:
Pros of Nexus One vs desire

Will get Froyo soon (with full flash support)

two mics with one being used for noise cancellation

Cons of nexus one vs desire

3g issue(not as strong 3g signal if held in hand and weaker signal then other 3g phones)

no outlook calender support by default

Pros of desire vs nexus one

sense ui (if you like sense)

outlook calender support by default

Cons desire vs nexus one

Will not get Froyo or other udates soon or at all

one mic with no noise cancellation

If it was me I would go with the evo 4g but if I had to choose N1 vs desire I would get the nexus one. You will end up using nexus one rom with froyo anyway if you want updates the same year they come out.
