didn't xda release a swype that works? i heard someone mentioned that, i dropped swype due it was a trial i had, and no point in including something that ends fast or allready is
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alan090:
yea i was using one that worked but it stopped - the one for the nexus1/droid works fine still on my x10

umm yea I just gotta find one for the magic - the reason I use it ( it makes typing 15x faster - even faster than on my dream)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] papay007:
@alan090

Can you just remove these pirated apps and put the rom back? I think it's a great rom. Great work btw :) for all of you cookers modders or dev's :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alan090:
yes I think I can do that for you :P

[Nexus One General] wesbalmer:
I figured instead of waiting for some day to loose functionality, I would stress test it. So all night I had it plugged in charging, while playing something off pandora using the 3.5mm headphone jack. Woke up right now, and its still working fine. My trackball is working better than before, I just can't scroll up. If I find the slightest thing wrong I'll do an insurance claim

Usually warranty doesn't include water damage.

Its actually quite win, its still working great! I just thought I'd let the community know first hand that this thing 'handled' 4 feet of water for about 10 seconds.

EVERYBODY SHOULD GO TRY THIS!

Awesome, glad its working great for you..... :u

Hope if I ever drop in water it will still work.

only would have been more epic if you had managed to drop it into the pool whilst recording a video, and it landed on the pool bottom cam facing up, so we could have laughed at you fully clothed diving in after it.
[Nexus One General] maxh:
I did that a long time ago with a nokia. It started working after a day of drying. A few weeks later I fell into a river and once again, it started working again after a day or two of drying. Even a third dunking wasn't enough to kill it; I still have it 9 years later, and a few months ago I happened to charge it up and power it on. It still works.

Hopefully your nexus will hang in there as well.
[Nexus One General] summonkey:
Nooo!!!!! I tried to put it in my bath for 10 Sec. It will now not power on. Why did I listen to you.
[Nexus One General] palosjr:

[Nexus One General] wesbalmer:
I never said a bath would work, you will need a reservoir at least 4 feet deep. It seems as though you misinterpreted what I was trying to convey, hopefully you're joking.

Still to this moment have had ZERO isssues. I thought my Trackball was sticky but that has absolutely cleared up. I have stressed tested this thing for a good ammount of time trying to find a flaw; nothing.
[Nexus One General] McFroger3:
I just tested this out and my phone is now broken. And since you did not have any disclaimer up I'm holding you responsible!!

Jk, good to hear your phone is still working!

No one can be that stupid! I hope you're all joking! I you're serious...wow!
[Nexus One General] babyboy8100:
Same thing happen to me the other day my 4 year old was taking a bath with the water on the tub half way full, i had my phone in my hand with the sleeve on. Then somehow it slipped out of my hand into the water. I quickly went forward n got it out. took the phone out of the soaked sleeve and surprisingly enough i press the power and it turn on,...but i decided to let it dry just to be safe took the battery,SD card etc out and let it dry 2 hours later Still Good. :)
[Nexus One General] 3Shirts:
Just some general advice if this happens:

Immediately out battery, then sim and mem card.

Place them all on a bed of dry (raw) rice and near a warm place like radiator or airing cupboard.

Leave them for at least 24 hours, ideally 48.

This should ensure the phone is fully dried out as the damage would happen when water shorts a connection inside. Often people's first reaction is to see if it still works and that can be the thing that breaks it.
[Nexus One General] Red MacGregor:
mine's taken a dunk in the toilet, in the bath, and in a 54oz diet dr. pepper (daughter thought it would be good idea for some reason)

and is still working like it was brand new. in each case, i took the battery out, took the sim card & sdcard out, dried it in a bag of dry rice, 12 hours later, good as new.

[General Questions and Answers] cyberkid2002:
Hi all,

Albums with multiple artists are showing in the music player (both HTC and default android) as multiple albums rather than one album.

I have tagged these correctly in iTunes with an album artist of 'Various Artists' and leaving the correct artist as the song artist.

Is this just the way android works or is it a problem with my phone? How do other people deal with this?

Cheers,

Michael
[General Questions and Answers] rvjacobs:
I believe it has something to do with the albumartist field and the artist field.

[General Questions and Answers] Geniusdog254:
This is going to sound stupid/obvious, but are the files in the same folder?

I had edited my tags from the original ones to match the same album (instead of like deluxe, normal, bonus track, or whatever) and they kept showing up different. If you put them in the same folder it fixes that.

If they are, then its probably the album artist field as the other person said
[General Questions and Answers] cyberkid2002:
All in the same folder and all have the album artist field correctly filled in. Any other suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] ldx00:
I am using Hyperdroid on the HD2 (Android 2.3.4) and I get the same issue. The difference with me is that it used to be fine and suddenly one day, it decided all the tracks belonged in their own album...

I wonder if it's because I did an in place upgrade from the previous version of Hyperdroid, based on 2.3.3?

Anyway, will wipe my card and put it all back on, see if that cures it.
[General Questions and Answers] GeSte:
I have this issue too when I copied a music album folder into the storage card. It shows two of the same album with the 1st track showing in one album and the rest in the other.

Any solutions? Thanks!:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] joooeeel:
doubleTwist player fixes it.
[General Questions and Answers] pfm68000:
Tag Album artist for all the tracks with "Various artists" (or what you want) and let each artist name in Artist tag only.

This way no more multiple albums.
[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
I had the same problem too, but after editing the ID3 information it worked fine. One tip is to set the songs in the right order like this:

Original setup:

- Song Title

- Song Title

- Song Title

- Song Title

- Song Title

- Song Title

- Song Title

"Correct" setup:

- 1.Song Title

- 2.Song Title

- 3.Song Title

- 4.Song Title

- 5.Song Title

- 6.Song Title

- 7.Song Title

The numbers won't (shouldn't at least) show up in the music player. You also want (as everyone here says) to edit the artist info using a ID3 editor.

- Artist Name: Various Artists

- Album Title: CyberKids' Awesome Mix

- Album Artist: CyberKids' Awesome Mix

- Track Title: *Don't touch this if you're editing all the songs together*

- Track(s): 7

- Track Number(s):

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,

(Now it knows there's 7 songs in the album)

- Disc#: 1

- Composer: CyberKids' Awesome Mix

- Year: 2011

- Genre: Salsa
[General Questions and Answers] Naser Ume:
worked for me

Hi everyone!

I write down what I have found. It worked for me.

I'm running Cyanogenmod 7.2 on a Motorla Defy.

The key thing IS the 'Album Artist' filed. BUT you have to force the music player to rescan the song files after changing the tags. An easy way could be is to rename the album's containing folder (even changing one charater is enough). This makes the music player to scan your song files again and rearrange them by the new tags.

Try this!

(It also could be useful to find out where does the player stores the meta tags of the songs and delete that.)

Here is a useful thread i found:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Arranmc182:
dose any one think there will be a port of 2.2 standard build to the Hero as this would be a good thing as it has flash & jit built in.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] theodore80:
I don't think so..

I don't believe that HTC will invest money and time to develop it..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] us1111:
I doubt HTC would invest in a port anyway.. But I sure see some chance of the Legend being updated and this rom being portable by some rom genius to the Hero, why not?

Assuming there are any Hero's existing at the time an actual update to 2.2 will be available for the Legend :D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sonnysoul:
Ofcourse. This doesn't need to be done by HTC.

We've seen many ports for the Hero. We had 1.6 and then 2.1 ported to the Hero, before the Legend roms were even leaked. Just recently the MyTouch Slide (HTC Espresso) has been ported to the Hero, so I don't see why we won't see 2.2 (Froyo) on the Hero.

It's not only down to porting it from the Legend, we could see a port from a new device, not yet released.

There's no point waiting for HTC to officially release 2.1 or 2.2. The custom roms on here are a better option and to be honest, I don't think I'll even update to the official 2.1 release when it eventually comes out, because Sense on the MyTouch Slide port is far better. Obviously I will if they update to this new version of Sense, but I doubt they'll do that.

But yes, I'm confident we will see Froyo on the Hero, not officially from HTC however.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Shahpur.Azizpour:
I think minor updates like 2.2 should be easily possible after the HTC Hero gets the OTA Update possibility during the 2.1 update.

I don't think that HTC needs to put in much ressources for minor updates.

At least this is what i expect, because if EVERY minor update is handled like the 2.1 one with long delays, then many people will think twice before getting an HTC device. But only time will tell...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Arranmc182:
from what i read it would have to be custom 2.2 as it will have jit built in and the sense ui is not compatable yet. also woulnt 2.1 drivers be easyer to port to 2.2 than 1.5 to 2.1.

Sent from my aHero using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Stafflover:
I don't think the hero will be able to keep up enough to run 2.2.

Since it has flash 10.1 and the hero isn't powerful enough to run it. Maybe a cleaned out version.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Arranmc182:
i dont mind about flash as i wouldnt use it for videos as android has a youtube app for most the videos i watch would be ok for other flash stuff but i know what you mean about speed but the hero as standard came with htc flash and thhat worked ok

[Hero, G2 Touch General] D0cStrange:
Well, in my humble opinion, with some overcloacking, and jit, i think we could think about running 2.2, so in my opinion yes, there is a possibility, the problem is to get a 2.2 kernel source...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] prodygee:
I'd love getting 2.2 on my Hero, with all the auto-updating and individual stock program updates automatically being pushed to your device.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] makerber:
There will be no 2.2 for Heros ... and Google (not HTC) is the reason for this. For Froyo they will upgrade the kernel from 2.6.29 (used for Android 1.6,2.0,2.1) to 2.6.3x and no one at HTC will take the effort to update the drivers for the Hero. There will be minor bug fixes for the 2.1 Hero release, but no major upgrade in future.

Google sucks, HTC sucks and if they keep it this way, Android fragmentation will suck even more.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] chriscpritchard:
How does using the latest kernel (with bug fixes, and many new features) make it google's fault. It's HTC who won't be bothered to update drivers etc (to be fair on them, the hero is an old handset for them and there's no point for them to do it)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] makerber:
Whatever bugs are in the kernel, Google already fixed/patched them for the Android 2.6.29 kernel. The kernel adaption they are doing are minor (power management, OpenBinder, etc.). So there is no real reason to upgrade that often. They kept the kernel stable for 3 version and now they are breaking compatibility again - why?

Look at MontaVista, Windriver and many others that do embedded Linux and guess how often they update kernels? However I agree with you that Heros will possibly not be able to run Froyo properly anyhow, so why bother with them? Overall it is a frustrating experience - but don't get me wrong here, despite this update odysee I am more than happy with my Android powered device and my next one will be Android again. Maybe not from HTC, and maybe I will not be awaiting any updates that eagerly again but let's see what comes next.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] vido.ardes:
The chances of getting 2.2 are practically none. As has been stated, 2.2 will be using an upgraded kernel from 2.1. The only reason we have 2.1 ROM's at the moment is because there was a hacked leaked kernel from HTC (which is why it is buggy and has poor battery life), so unless HTC actually commit to an official release for the hero, even the geniuses here at XDA wouldn't be able to get 2.2 running on our Hero's.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] killer4o:
From what you say it seems like you need a leaked kernel to build a rom. Still I don't think we have leaked kernels for 1.6 and we still had 1.6 roms. So if you mean that any HTC 2.2 kernel would do the trick, then no worries, HTC will definitely release a 2.2 device with sense and everything. It will never upgrade old devices to 2.2, of course, but there will be new ones to port from. And I don't think the 2.2 will be too heavy for our heroes because I don't see anything except flash that could slow the system more than the current 2.1 (and we got some really fast 2.1 roms). However, taking into consideration the JIT and the fact that the hero is able to run full screen weather animations with LWP with sense makes me think that it will be able to handle new flash.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Stafflover:
Those weather animations don't have anything to do with flash.

Remember the flipping clock in the first rom slowing everything down?

Seriously you won't be able to run a 2.2 rom smoothly. It will be like the first hero rom at best (if you look at the speed)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] :
hi,

i can imagine a 2.2 update for the Hero, maybe HTC named early june for an update because they needed to wait for google to release froyo...

Sent from my HTC Hero using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero, G2 Touch General] makerber:
I don't want to be the heartbreaker here, but there will be no official 2.2 HTC Hero port for the time being. At least HTC is not planing for one. Adapting the Kernel costs HTC several 100 k$ per device (and that is only the kernel!). I talked to HTC techies lateley, and they are not working on a Heroic Froyo - updates yes, upgrades no. Maybe they change minds, but I don't think this is going to happen.

Cry out loud enough and if reaches HTC headquarters, they might change minds. Until then, everyone should be realistic about what to expect. The 2.1 update will give the device another year of lifespan - that's it. Grow up and start a homebrew ROM developer carrier or get yourself a life. If the real world is not nice enogh, try World of Warcraft.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] laufine:
I don't think we can get Andriod 2.2 for our Hero. I only hope the 2.1 will come in time.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Alex~:
I think this will be the ultimate test to see if HTC are bothered about the Hero.

It would be bad for Android in general if they didn't update it, I wouldn't want to see fragmentation becoming even more of a headache.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Stafflover:
Htc would be a company of idiots if they gave the hero an update for 2.2

companies like htc only want you to buy a new phone, they don't earn anything

from a rom upgrade. We should be happy even getting 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mikael120:
vanilla roms?

i get the fact that we most likely won't get a sense-enabled 2.2 rom, but what about vanilla roms? most 2.1 vanilla roms today use kernels that has been compiled from the AOSP source, and not the leaked 2.1 htc kernel. so could we not simply compile the AOSP 2.2 kernel source and at least get vanilla 2.2 roms or would we need new drivers to do that?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Alex~:
They won't sell new phones to existing customers if they've got zero confidence in the new phones getting updates.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nixgegendenise:
They are enough idiots whose reaction to the 2.1-delay was like "What!? No Eclair for Hero! I hate HTC! I will go and buy an HTC Legend!" There are enough of these dumbasses.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] makerber:
If anyone takes the time to compile/distribute, I guess there will be some. But they will lack proper support for anything device specific like accelerometer, camera, GPS, proper power management, light sensor, notification LEDs, ...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] killer4o:
I don't say they do, I just say that the hero is not all that powerless. I don't remember the flipping clock slowing stuff, because I got my Hero later, but I now have a flipping clock that doesn't slow my system. So I guess it's up to optimization. I don't say flash will run like charm, but I don't think it will be impossible to run. The only problem is with HTC not porting 2.2, because AFAIK it makes it impossible to overclock the device? Maybe someone confirm/deny? Another thing is, flash may be slow, but that won't prevent rest of the rom from running smoothly, will it?

And finally, my opinion on the whole HTC update policy - I agree that there will be people buying Legends, but they are not that many. In my opinion, this policy is completely wrong in the long run, because even those "dumbasses" as you call them will remember not getting their 2.2 update for their Legends when they go to the shop next time. HTC is creating a horrible public face right now, because it is abandoning what was the flagman Android phone not that long ago. It's similar to Google denying updates to Nexus 1 - even if you don't earn money by doing it, you *have* to update, you have to keep current users happy. Because there are people who can buy a new phone for every update, but the majority cannot. But that's just me, HTC managers seem to disagree completely.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Stafflover:
People like us keep proving to htc that it's NOT necessary to update anything (except maybe some bugfixes) For example htc is known cause of the tytnII that was able to do some 3d things but since htc didn't publish the correct drivers it wouldnt. And what do people do? Buy another HTC.

If you're so disgusted bij htc's update process don't buy one again.

I really think it's stupid when you buy a for example desire when you're nagging about the hero's update process, the desires will be the same. Wait wait and wait.

And the flipping clock was in the first rom, never came back so you might have a ''flipping'' clock but it's not the one I meant. Only snapdragon and droid omap cpu are strong enough for flash. The hero can't. Maybe with some ocing but not everyone wants to do that.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] cbailey:
This current debacle is very simple economics.

People buy hardware. People do not currently buy rom upgrades. If a chargeable pirate proof rom upgrade programme could be instigated and justified, watch what HTCs stance would be on rom upgrades. Delays would disappear as the urge to financially benefit would increase.

However, rom upgrades are currently costless and thus of not bottom line benefit to HTC, so as a corporation, they are driven to push out more and more environmentally damaging (and unnecessary) hardware platforms. Progression is brilliant but with efficient effort on software, the hero could be largely where the desire is now - but - as I say, it doesn't make money.

This does not make it right. Infact, it makes it very wrong. I see 'why' they are doing it - but it galls me, deters me away from the brand for good and frustrated that £400 has been spent on a platform that does not completely deliver a lot of the mundane functions a phone should. Nevermind the inherent lag.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] chrisbramm:
Perhaps a cleaned out version without flash may make it.

Would there be anything to stop XDA devs to figure out a way to upgrade it?
