[Android Themes] unsanedelirium:
Hi guys,

A little over my head here, I am a mechanical engineer major and pretty fluent with computers until it gets to programming. I am trying to set up a nice theme on my HTC Droid but ran in to problems with busybox; which is required for Metamorph to work as I understand.

I see the code is available for download but I am not sure how to go about compiling or using it after. Could someone point me to a guide I missed, perhaps on this very forum, or just give me some quick pointers. The goal is to make the phone look nice; not gain a complete understanding of whats involved. Which leads me to believe some quick pointers would be the most efficient solution to my problem.

I have already upgraded to Android 2.1 and gained root access using guides at the theunlockr site.

I installed Metamorph and andExplorer but Metamorph just hangs there indefinitely on load; at which point I realized I need busybox and that's where I ran in to trouble.

Thank you for your time :)

The themes here arent for your device, you have to try the droid forums or alldroid or modmymomto too.

"When theres no limit to what Droid gets, theres no limit to what Droid Does."
[Android Themes] unsanedelirium:
Well the theme I want to install is Buuf, and I have seen it on my device so clearly it possible. It's also for sale on android market so clearly it can function on it. However I don't want to pay for the app they made that automates the installation of it when I went through all the trouble of root breaking the phone and putting 2.1 on it etc :cool:

Hello,

I'm just thinking of buying of HD2 and I have there two mayor questions:

1. When the phone is connected to a Plantronics Bluetooth headspeaker and the phone rings, does the phone ring also or only it rings into the headspeaker. I had two years ago Tytn II and there it was in this way --> I don;t like it

2. I have some offers no buy the phone second hand. Is there any possibility to check how long the phone was used, or generally to check if the phone is worth the money?
[HD2 General] alop:
No body has a suggestion?
[HD2 General] alop:
Nobody want to spend 2 min to answer to my doubts about HD2?
[HD2 General] jakem:
I can't answer your first question but might be able to help with the second. If you go to Settings>About Phone>Software Information and check the Usage section you'll get an idea of how much the phone has been used. Of course, this will only tell you how long the owner has spent on the phone itself and won't tell you what else the device has been used for or for how long. At the end of the day, you'll probably have to trust the guy who's selling the phone.
[HD2 General] L!z@rd:
With my Plantronics it rings both ways - the phone, and headset.
[HD2 General] TrekkerJmm:
Same here. With my Plantronics Voyager Pro it rings both ways...Tj
[Droid Incredible General] emerson999:
Anyone using a2dp bluetooth headphones with the htc music app on the incredible? If so, I was wondering if anyone had experienced this as well or even better if they might have a fix.

My imuff headphones pair and connect fine to the incredible. And I can hear music out of them from the music app. The big problem is that the headphone's controls don't do anything to the music. The skip foreward and back, or even the play/pause button on my headphones won't actually do any of that in the music program.

It does, however, work with btunes. However, btunes has problems of its own for me and I'd really rather use htc's music program.

Edit: Looks like what I need is for AVRCP to work in the htc music app. Ironically, I found the name for it in a post by someone who was annoyed by it working in the htc music app. While for me, the issue is the music app not being able to make use of it.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tkrewinkel:
Trying to find out if my cases are just really bad luck or are there really issues with the touch screen on the HERO!

Bought my phone in October 2009 and now have the bring in the phone for the 5th time to HTC. My son has also an Hero and he faces the same problems.

Symptoms:

- lower region no or very bad response, almost unable to use the backspace in sms

- about 9 mm from the bottom the whole screen no response

- screen starts flipping/switching between the different menu screens

For my phone the lcd already 3 times replaced and for my son once.

When I brought in my phone last time I asked them if there where people like me who have the same problems with the touch screen and they assured me there where no screen problems!!!

I really getting tired of going to HTC service centre and have to wait one week before my phone comes back, last time even almost 2 weeks.

I do like the phone but with these kind of problems I wonder just bad luck or is there something wrong with the design?

Didn't drop the phone once, would say I am a heavy user including mobile network sharing function.

Use stock rom and have installed facebook and yahoo. Don't even dear to put the phone in my pocket because I am afraid that would cause the problems.

Who has similar experience and is willing to share. Would like to find out more before I send a big complain letter to HTC?

5-May Update:

Today received a brand new Hero from HTC. All new except the back cover :)

hope this one last a bit longer

Thanks

Theo, Singapore
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mach2005:
Many people have had this problem. Mine was sent to HTC, 3 months ago or so. Haven't had the problem since.

Maybe your repair-center uses the wrong (old) acreens.

Mine was sent to HTC Belgium. I live in the Netherlands.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] motto_L:
same here...got my phone about 3 month ago...I had loaded alot apps when I first got the phone. and the lower part of screen was DEAD at one point. Hard reset that's all I did and works fine for the last few months
[Hero, G2 Touch General] DSF:
tkrewinkel, mach2005, have you flashed a custom ROM or smth? (threkwinkel i know you mention that u've used a stock rom.. but your not clear if you've used a custom ROM and revert back to the stock one .. )
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mach2005:
The problem does not apear when the screen is cold. After a while when the screen is at full brightness it gets warmer and the problem gets worse. HTC told me that they had to repair a lot of devices and it is a common hardware-problem. This has absolutely NOTHING to do with the ROM-version you are on!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] felikz:
same for me here, sending the phone right now to htc
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sebxd:
Why did you ask that question ? Do you think that custom ROM may cause that problem with our hero screen ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] serenity373:
I had the same issue and posted earlier in the forum..i never installed custom rom but for some reason the screen wasnt responsive enough and had a tough time sending mails n msgs..returned it to htc and got it repaired.

my hero is working perfectly and looking fwd to the 2.1 update
[Hero, G2 Touch General] DSF:
I wanted to know if this is related somehow to unofficial ROMS.. but it seems it's not.. thanks serenity373!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sebxd:
Yeah i know...in my case it appeared just after changing my rom...i had an overclocked kernel...

I think i'm gonna use my warranty..

:sad:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] roton:
I had exactly the same issue in the region of the screen you stated (bottom right). It has been repaired once so far. I hope it doesn't happen every few months!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mafiadog:
Can we have on general thread for these touch screen problems.

It is a common issue i believe. I want to know if the htc phones that were send for repairs came across the same problem again?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mrbox23:
I'll attach the cab. First thing i noticed was an almost instant GPS fix where before it would take up to two mins for a fix if I got one at all.

And of coarse Voice Search is now supported :)

I also downloaded the satellites before running it the first time enjoy.....

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] joelseff:
I just put it in last night. Does this thing have turn by turn directions. I tried it out and it didnt say anything and I purposely took a wrong turn and it didnt reroute or tell me I was lost...I thought it would be like the google maps for droid. Am I just using it wrong? thankx for any help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] stevov:
iirc the navigation facility is not available on winmo only android at this point
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
As said above this is not the google maps navigation which is a beta release for android right now. Its not available for windows mobile

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zer0day:
I don't think those are errors, they look like debug/info messages. Do you have a lot of apps installed? Installed apps are dexopt-ed each time you boot. Turn off your phone, attach it to the computer, fire up DDMS and boot your phone up. Monitor logcat for any unusual messages, not just those with 'E/' prefix. Also, how long do you mean by 'lengthy'?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archillion:
I scanned over the logcat file and i really didnt see anything abnormal. is there any specific suffix i should be looking for? I really didnt time the bootup but im guessing about 1.2-2 mins?
[Nexus One General] erikiksaz:
My favorite browser so far is Dolphin, with the stock android browser running a close second. But, the only problem with both browsers is that they don't seem to utilize much of the cache when it comes to moving backwards and forwards through web pages.

For example, let's say I'm on the General forum of N1 on XDA. I click into a thread, then when I want to go back to the general forum. Instead of taking a split second to access whatever's in cache, it'll go through the whole process of downloading all the content again.

Can it not do what our computer browsers do and just read it straight off the cache?
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Opera Browser does that.. is it worth the switch is the question.
[Nexus One General] daveid:
You know, I always wondered why the stock browser kept such a large cache, but never seemed to load pages from it... not that I am giving you any assistance with your question.. more like adding one of my own.

Anyone know why this is?
[Nexus One General] daveid:
Sorry it double posted me...
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Desktop browsers do the same thing. It's just a lot faster. :cool:

There's no way to load a webpage 100% from cache.

I open new windows/tabs 95% of the time. And that's BOTH on my phone and on my PC. I rarely use the same tab, and have been middle clicking etc for years.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
I hope cyanogen can add this functionality, possible with an adjustable time frame. Say to only poll server side if it's been more than 5 minutes since you last loaded the page.

It's frustrating having to wait for a page to reload like the subscription list page.
[Nexus One General] t0mmy:
what is stopping you from loading pages in new tabs like paul was saying. that seems like it would accomplish what you want.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Just to clarify because this may not be common knowledge...

Opening a link in a new tab is activated by long pressing on the link :cool:
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
I used to do that on the desire rom when I had it loaded, because switching tabs was easier and faster on the HTC broswer.

Default browser is kinda of a pain to change tabs, and the press/hold to get to the open new link shortcut is one second to long and moves into cumbersome territory.

I browse a little different on the phone than I do on the desktop. I've been on opera's nuts for years since they first introduced tabs to the world. =D
[Off-topic] poor_red_neck:
So I saw this on an internet site one day, and always wanted to make one.

I found some tillandsias at the farmer's market today and figured I'd give it a shot.

Tillandsias are air plants. They require no root system (the roots are simply to mount/hang from something. They require very little watering, and get all their nutrients though the leaves.

I went to the craft store to get some sand, and ended up getting "Ballast" used in scale model terrariums. Doesnt hold moisture like sand. Tillandsias' like to be completely dried in between watering.

I grabbed some old vanity globe light bulbs I had laying around after converting to CFLs.

I plan on making a larger one, as there is globe bulbs about twice the diameter.

I got the tillandsias for about $1 each, and the rest of the crap for about 10 bucks from AC Moore. Just some "drift wood" like stuff, some decorative shells, dead starfish, and preserved moss (not live moss)

Hy. i`ve been searching answers for my questions but i didn`t find what i want to know.

It`s there any posibility to "press a button" and PAUSE the video record ? and then to have the posibility to resume recording ?

Has someone an idea, how I can solve this problem?

Flash back to WM5 and check camera.If works, then try another WM6.5 ROM.Check the thread of the ROM you used,maybe someone has this problem and solution.You can remove the antenna cover to check the camera connector connection.

Hi every one. I have tried just about every rom out there and I've found several that I just love. Only problem is that every time I find one that works really fast and has working video and all the other things that I like theres no wireless tether which for me is a must. Is there any way to install wireless tether on a rom that I like that doesnt come with it?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bzerk1:
yes, you can download it and just install it on from your sdcard from the website with root explorer or similar app. But some roms dont include wireless tether support even if you install.

When I tap my phone on back cover near the camera there is a distinct rattling sound. It's as if there is something loose inside the phone.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Nothing here, for me build quality is superb!

mines nearer to lower left section of back cover behind the home key but only just a minor creak.. to be expected with a plastic construction I guess (waiting for HTC to release a Legend type unibody on Desire)...

[Desire General] brusnica:
Same problem here. I'm going crazy from this sound. It seems that it is something in camera construction (maybe autofocus?) because when I take photos I get the same sound.
[Desire General] Eddiemc:
It's your camera.

A lot of phones that doesn't have fixed focus will have this issue. It's due to the lence moving inside its housing, creating that rattling sound.

My previous 3gs had it, my desire has it now. Nothing to worry about, but really annoying;)

[Desire General] mihaiweb:
Same here. Unfortunately it seems that this is a problem with HTC Desire.
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
No, its a problem with the cameras HTC uses. My Hero had the same rattle. so did the phone a friend uses. Other brands have the rattle as well.

It's just part of the camera and autofocus. wouldn't exactly call it bad build quality as well...

Thanks for the replies guys.

I had better stop tapping it if it's the camera! LOL

Wasn't sure if I should request exchanget but if they are all the same then no point.
[Desire General] al89nut:
Presumably it's the rattle that lets the camera zoom optically?
[Desire General] mcgon1979:
My N82 has this too. I'm pretty sure most autofocus camera phones will have this. I certainly don't think its a problem or a build quality issue. Does anyone NOT have that rattle when they sahke there phone upside down?
[Desire General] abc27:
I have the rattle aswell. Oddly enough I have an LG Viewty with auto and manual focus and it doesn't have the same rattle. My N95 8GB didn't have the rattle either. My digital camera doesn't rattle either when I tap the lense. I'm guessing that it's just because the lense isn't that great.
[Desire General] Amplificator:
Some devices are known to have this problem. Is is coming from the camera and is perfectly normal.
[Desire General] The Lurking Droid:
No rattles here, however frame of my desire is a bit... bent. You know, that brown part?

I pushed in so it's kinda ok now, but from some angles I can see light leaking out.

Some with trackball, the ball is a bit pushed to the right side, so light leaks out on the left side.

Kinda bummed for that, I mean this is after all quite expensive piece of technology...

EDIT: after some knocking around, there's that rattle, ARGHHHHH :(

It's the autofocus mech in the camera.

Hi,

Is there a way to export the scenes you have saved on your phone and reflash them or reinsert them after a new rom install?

I dont always like having to place every app back where it belongs and hopefully not forgetting the layout or what panel they belong on.

Is there a way through the cmd? adb?

is there a single file that all the information is stored in and maybe i can grab that from the system/ and push it back after a rom install, considering it is the same type of rom?

[XPERIA X10 General] klarsen:
Hi Guys,

seems like my X10i has an overheating problem. I live in the UAE - and temperature is up to about 40 deg celsius here.

I was out trying to add some tracks to OpenStreetMap - running a GPS tracking app. After about 15 minutes of being outside - the phone rebooted without warning. Then I tried again - and same thing happened.

Then I disabled ALL running software - and again the phone rebooted after about 5 min. and continued to do so every 5 minutes. I came home in my 23 deg :-) A/C cooled house - and after about 15 minutes and another 3 reboots - the phone stopped rebooting.

So I think if you use a "process" intensive application like watching video or using a gps with screen on - in a high heat environment - the phone will kill itself. It was not a fault in the GPS software and not a fault in any other "hardware" - but seems like a design flaw.

Juice plotter reports battery temperature of about 55 deg at first reboot and 54 deg at second reboot.

Anyone else have seen this issue?
[XPERIA X10 General] chevchelios:
55 degrees is not normal. Mine is around 27 at standby, and at max 35 degrees during use. I live in .NL btw..
