Hi,

i´ve searched a lot but no success.

I use a german T-Mobile stock rom (1.72.) Having a working data connection, this is displayed in taskbar. I´ve got no small "E" or "H" in the statusbar-symbol. It´s look like this (after hard reset):

View attachment 317640

I found out that in \windows are TMO_phcanOverbmp.dll and phcanOverbmp.dll. Is display modified by T-Mobile?

I´m just used to have it and it´not good displayed withBlack & White Task Bar where indication of connection is the same.

Any idea what´s causing this?

Sorry for my english...:o

Thanks a lot

Hi all,

I recently purchased and installed a larger Micro SD card for my TD2. I did what "Bruce Inman" said after i asked my question about replacing the SD card and how to retain all my data (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=671656). Anyway i copied everything across as instructed and now my start menu icons are in a grid of 4 instead of 3 it used to be....i previously had TD2 Tools 3 installed and remember the setting in TD2 Tools "Start Menu Icon Spacing" so i thought i would check this as maybe it had changed from 3 - 4, upon doing so the application is greyed out and i can make no changes to this option...i thought maybe it some problem with the phone so i rebooted and it made no change. I removed all the my additional apps excluding TD2 Tools and the problem still occurs. I decided to remove TD2 Tools and it sort of worked, it made my start menu icons appear in a 3 icon per line grid but all the text names become really small like size 2 instead of the normal. I`m at a loss what i can do to fix this and would like someones input if possible, Reinstalling TD2 Tools sets the icon spacing to 4 but in TD2 Tools itself its set to 3 and i cannot change it.

Ive attached some screenshots for better reflection of the issue. The first is the icon spacing which clearly shows 4 icons per line instead of 3 and the TD2 Tools application with the option greyed out is the second
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
You install TD2 Tools to main memory, correct?

Recently my 16gb San Disk crashed and I copied everything to a 16gb Kingston.

The main folders that have to stay intact is your Application Data folder and Program Files.

This worked seamlessly for me.

SD card should not have affected your start menu unless your folder structure changed.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] kornster:
Are you stalking my posts Bruce??? :P

Anyway i think i installed TD2 to my SD card as i didnt want to clutter the device with apps and games....figured it would be fine to do this...

So im still stuck with my problem...

maybe there is a registry key or something thats funked stuff up, hell i dunno, all i know is after swapping SD cards Ive had nothing but issues, especially with device performance

Oh i should mention i reinstalled the old SD card, reset my phone and the problem still occurred, figured it was worth a shot
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] kornster:
Gave up so i reflashed to the Stock HTC 6.5 ROM....dunno what happened but now i have the annoying task of reinstalling and remembering what i had installed
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] trixie0604:
I also have a problem with my memeory card..It's so slow when saving files and copying files. I dunno what the problem is..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] kornster:
Hi Trixie, Im pretty sure this the phone HTC Proprietary port transfer rate doin this....i usually use a USB Micro SD Adapter to move all my data across and it super fast over USB, as soon as i use the HTC USB Port with the cable its slower.
[Desire General] Aitese:
I used Astro File Manager to back up my apps when I re-flashed to a generic ROM.

I used it to put all my apps back. Here's my problem. They are now not showing as installed in the Market app. Seeing as they were not installed from the Market I'm worried that I'll miss out on updates when they become available unless I manually check. Not all apps make the version number easy to find.

Anyone had any issues after a backup/restore?
[Desire General] JupiterDroid:
Any apps not registered in the market will not update auto, what happens generally after a hard reset is when you sign in, go to downloads in the market app, and all your downloaded apps from previous to the hard reset will be there, then just install en mass. ;)

[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
I have seen some screenshots of N1 with different fonts, how can we change them?

Do we use ADB?
[Nexus One General] djmcnz:
Yes, you can use adb. You need to replace the fonts in /system/fonts

The two main ones to replace are:

DroidSans-Bold.ttf

DroidSans.ttf

Some people only have success replacing one font, rebooting, then replacing the other one. Some other people have had success replacing both at the same time.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Or use Type Fresh
[Nexus One General] smokiestogie:
I'm a newb to changing fonts as well. So I installed Type Fresh, and it looks in my Sd card for fonts. So would I be able to drag and drop the Helvetica font from my Mac to the SD card?

Edit: Dragged and dropped Helvetica from my Mac to sd/fonts, Type Fresh not detecting it.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Did you try restarting the app after copying?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torstenk:
Hi all

Does anyone know if the Cyanogen ROM will be availeble for the HERO? Just saw this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HVBVlAui3s&feature=player_embedded#!

where the G1 has it. Is has some nice features. Like:

Switching music with the volume keys

Syncing with facebook (i know some have this feature)

Switching music with the volume keys
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] prodygee:
There already is a Cyanogen port for the Hero, but it's not being developed anymore. I found it at modaco forums.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
Is that all it has? Because I would expect every Hero rom to be able to sync with facebook, as it is a standard android feature. The switching music with volume keys would be annoying i think, but if it is a feature you would like try asking a dev to help you out or create an optional file to move keys around, its probably not that hard, but not something every user would want.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torstenk:
Well of course it has a lot of other features. Otherwise google would not try to lock down his ROMS. It is also very popular among users. I ahve read an article on Engadget that 30.000 users uses his ROM. So of course it has a lot of other features
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
Fact is, there's no up to date Cyanogen port for the Hero, magic volume music buttons or not. I'd hazard a guess that it'd be easier for benhaam or nprussell to implement this feature than to attempt to build the whole ROM for this purpose. But it'd be way down anyone's list of 'useful/required features'.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vorcigernix:
Problem is in Lox vendor tree, which doesn't work anymore. If there is working vendor thee for hero, it is easy to build from cyanogen sources.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] art_sn00p:
It is a matter of delayed 2.1 update (God bless you HTC!). We are all waiting for official sources and vendor overlay.

May be MaXo64 could "Legoconstruct" some features from Cyanogen into his briliant aHero ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] inoam:
hey 3 questions:

1. What is vendor overlay?

2. Why do we need htc's source if it's for 2.1 sense? Isn't The magic and the Hero the same hardware mostly?

3. Historically did htc publish their source after publishing the official rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] art_sn00p:
Vendor specific drivers, modules and libraries for hardware. This code is closed and it is a property of HTC. For example code for video card or for GPS chip.

They have to publish source codes according to Android licence.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
This is a slightly misleading statement - there is *nothing* in the "Android License" which requires source code to be released because there is no such thing as an "Android License"

You are thinking of the linux kernel, which is released under the GPL. HTC have to release their modifications to the kernel, but this quite separate from the rest of Android which is released under the Apache Software License and is not a "copyleft" license.

This is why HTC do not have to release the source code for Sense UI.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] art_sn00p:
Nevertheless, we do not need Sense UI sources. It is mere a graphical enhancement. Linux kernel, right, is under GPLv2. And hardware specific kernel modules are kernel modification. So they have to ))

But it is not forbidden for HTC never produce update for Hero. No new kernel, no new sources )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slovoflud:
I need Sense UI sources ;)

I bet I could sell it back to HTC for a rouble or two! ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Haha. Seriously though, that's what baksmali is for :P
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
Hello,

Now that we have root access it is possible to remove preinstalled apps like :

- Peep

- Stock

- Stock Widget

- Quick Office

- PDF Reader

- etc.

And how it is possible to do this?

Thanks a lot for the futur answers and have a nice day with your rooted HTC Desire!!!
[Desire General] jayshah:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=672352

This ROM has those applications removed. If you want to remove them yourself, you can just try mv'ing the APKs out of the way and see if the phone detects them, but I haven't tried this so advice is issued without warranty. If the apps are in /system you'll need to use the recovery + adb shell mount /system to modify it (try in the OS and the phone will just reboot), if they're not in /system or any other protected dirs, you should just be able to mv them straight.

I haven't rooted my phone yet, but I will later on so this is just ideas at this point.
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
Thanks for the ROM but I want to customize my phone myself^^

Is there a step by step guide that explain what you say because I'm just starting with android.

Thanks for the answer
[Desire General] cezarL:
+1 on that!

I moved to Desire from a Touch HD, and while I never got into ROM cooking for WinMo, I wouldn't mind dabbling a bit with Android, mostly to remove some of the bloatware that comes with the stock ROM. Trouble is... I have no idea where/how to start :) Such a 'beginner's guide' would be great to get hold of, if anything exists!

EDIT - found these guides here on XDA:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719 - ADB, Fastboot and Nandroid for Noobs

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=502010 - ADB for dummies

(I would have expected to see these in the Android section, not in a device-specific forum; oh well... )
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
And if we delete the .apk and .odex in the "system/app" folder from the "rootedupdate.zip" that Paul from MoDaCo has given to us before flashing?

Does the ROM will flash and work correctly but without these annoying apps?
[Desire General] jayshah:
Try and find out ;)

Personally I would just delete (rename) the odex + apks from your current installation by rebooting into recovering and using a variation of these commands:

adb shell

At your PC to get a root shell. Then

cd /system/app/

mv theapp.apk theapp.bye.apk

ls

You will need to use a variation of the above commands, "ls" is list files in this directory, "cd" is change directory, and "mv" is rename file.
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
All the .apk are readonly so I can't uninstall or rename them...

Waht can I do?
[Desire General] cezarL:
The phone has to be in recovery mode in order to get write permissions to the /system partition.

Pretty obvious, I know, but I missed this and I kept banging my head against the keyboard when getting 'read-only' errors (with the phone in USB Disk Drive + debugging) :)
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
So I turn on my phone with the "Sound Down" button and I go on the Recovery screen (with red triangle).

Then I connect my HTC Desire to my computer.

But after that I can't go to system partition...

What command are you writing in the shell to load the system partition and do some stuff on it?

I'm sorry I'm very good with Windows but I'm a total noob wit Linux :cool:
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
I have tried the adb shell command (don't know if it's useful for me...) and the computer return me :

- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

and adb remount return me :

remount failed: Invalid argument

:confused::confused::confused:
[Desire General] cezarL:
Wait... you tried adb with the phone still showing the red triangle?

First you need to bring it to recovery (the screen with green text).

This is how I do it:

- boot off the .iso provided for rooting

- mount the cdrom as described in the guide, but skip ./step1.sh

- put phone in HBOOT (to get the screen with the red triangle) then connect it to the machine

- run 'sudo ./step2.sh' which will push the files needed for recovery to the device - then you'll get the green screen, just like when you flashed the ROM

- then, on the computer:

'sudo ./adb shell' - brings you to the shell prompt of adb

'mount /system' - mounts the protected partition, but you have write permissions

'cd /system/app/' and then delete whatever I want

when done, 'cd /' and 'umount /system' and 'exit'

Clear the cache so that you won't get dead links in the menus later...
[Desire General] kimjor:
Perfect thanks, I had it in recovery mode, but it couldn't locate the app folder under /system/

but after the mount /system it appeared :-)
[Desire General] Sebacestmoi:
Tahnk you a hundred times cezarL.

Now I have cleaned my phone from everything I don't need.

For those who are interested by my work I've done the following commands from the recovery screen :

cd C:\AndroidSDK\tools

adb shell

mount /system

cd /system/app/

rm com.htc.NewsReaderWidget.apk

Been on the zune website and the only way you can download the software is to get it from the american site, so I'm wondering when the new WP7 handsets come out and have zune access on them will we in england be able to use the service to buy music and videos (if they do it). Ive been looking though the site and the web but not really heard much about it.

As it stands we can only use zune on our xbox 360's and then it uses a stupid point system to purchase instead of saying "that will be £2.99 please", this is one of the reason I prefer the Playstation Networks film service it has more films and uses real money... on the other side its so slow to download anything :(

Anyway I digress, has anyone heard anything about the zune network and would like to share the info please :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] NoWorthWhile:
I can feel your pain, mate... I live in Belgium and had imported a Zune 80 gb a couple of years back and been happily using it until it died on my last year...

But I use everyday the Zune software, IMHO it's the best out there (unless for .mkv and .flac playback...)

Look, they haven't said muck, but with the Kin due to come out in Germany, and WP7 latter this year, well, it's only a matter of time until they bring out the Zune Pass over in Europe.

Have faith :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Spike15:

I remember i've read somewhere (forgot where) a Rogers rep. saying X10 will get 2.x in September.

So, i assume is true now that 2 sources made the same announcement.

Problem is, we need firmware updates in meantime to fix those damn bugs we have.
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
September seems likely for 2.x... hopefully 2.2.

However, I would caution believing anything Engadget posts about the X10. They have posted numerous unsubstantiated rumors about the X10 over the past few months, and most have been incorrect.

New X10 firmware [R2BA013] to bring performance boost, Creatouch app?
[XPERIA X10 General] tuxStyle:
Well, then let's hope Rogers will push it :)

If not, i'll really have to debrand it ...
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
Yeah, I'm thinking the same. If baseband .16 is released for the X10a before Rogers releases it (which is likely), I'll then de-brand.

If you want the HTC Volume control

But when u install the HTC Volume control, ur volume-icon gets ugly (the standard one)

so here is the fix: (without messing up the volume icon)

First extract the files from HTC Volume Control Files.zip into windows/ directory.

second install the startup cab and then soft reset.

it will take some more time then normally to startup the first time, u wil see the volume screen when it starts up..!
