[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThR1LL:
Hey guys I unlocked my G1 and brought it with me to the Philippines where I will be studying for at least the next 4 years and I was wondering if it was possible to use it as sort of a WiFi phone. I really have no idea where I'm going with this but as of right now I have a WiFi connection in my dorm, GV Account, Magic Jack, and of course my G1. Is there any way I can use my G1 to make calls through my Magic Jack using my G1 without using my current SIM number? I just want to make calls with my G1 using my Magic Jack number through WiFi so I don't have to use my Philippine number at all.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
I understand that "magikcrack" is some kind of scam.

You need to install SIPDROID and use a generic SIP phone provider.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThR1LL:
Actually some of my cousins and roomates use magic jack and it's been fine for them so I don't see where the scam is
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Use sipdroid to make calls thru data or wifi.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThR1LL:
Do you know how I could use sipdroid to make calls with my MagicJack number?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
I would have to look up how magicjack works, but there's alternatives to use with sipdroid that are all free so you don't have to be tied down to magicjack.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zer0day:
I recently got an N1 and I need to transfer my apps & data to it from my G1. Installing the apps are no problem but I would really like to avoid losing app data and starting again.

So what would be the easiest way to go around copying the app data to the N1?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxmonsterx:
go to the market and download titanium backup, then visit the authors website and purchase a licence key(he sent me mine in <10 mins)

with this app and the licence key you cna do a batch backup of all your apps and data, and you can just pop your sdcard into your n1 and do a batch restore and all your apps and data will be restored to the same specifications as they were on your g1
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eclair~:
I thought you couldn't backup app data without root access? Or..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
You're right.

Titanium, the mentioned app above, REQUIRES ROOT ACCESS!!!

There are other apps, but I've never tried them.

I've rooted all my Android™ phones, and Titanium is what I've used for them all.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zer0day:
Thanks for the info guys. I haven't rooted my phone yet in case I have problems and need to return it. I will root it in about a weeks time if no problems pop up.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fandroid93:
Use an app called appmonster to back them up and then to restore them use that same app. its free but you dont get the batch install. but the paid one does. Thats what i used to use before i found titanium.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The_Emperor:
Hi everybody,

Can someone tell me if wm7 will finally support multiple calendars? Windows developers should be spending their time fixing wm6.5 instead of reinventing the wheel.

What about internet calendars?

This is what geek wm users want! Not some fancy menu with crappy kid stuff like 'XBox Live'.

What about the battery? We should already had a more advanced battery application (where we could see how much time's left, advanced setting where we could change between economic mode to normal mode to high performance mode).

Alarm clock! Yes, I would like to have as many clocks as I want, instead of the default 3(a simple "add new alarm" button would do the trick), I have 5 different hours to wake through the week, I really don't like to configure my alarm everyday.

'Fast search Textbox' -> This is one of my ideas that could be implemented! It would be something like the textbox in the start button of vista and windows 7. This fast search could be in the wm start menu too, where we could type in, and the results would come out (avoiding scrolling through a bunch of menus).

'Internet meter'. My internet plan is really a crap, so I would like that wm would have a default Internet meter, I am sick of running out my MB around day 25 (my plan is monthly).

'Profiles'. Based on time, location and a lot of other possible variables it should set automatically some configurations, for example, if my phone is in the cradle in home, it should turn wifi on automatically instead of spending my precious MB of my crappy internet plan or if I am at school, vibration mode should automatically turn on.

'Messenger'. Messenger should already be much better implemented, I mean, Windows owns Messenger, they should be massively promoting messenger in their phones because it's really useful (at least for me).

This is what geek users like us want. Not an easy and dumb phone like iphone. And why developers focus so much in graphics instead of functionality? Are they listening to their geek customers?
[Windows Phone 7 General] the-hq:
Have you ever tried the emulator?

That would answer at least some of your questions concerning alarms and calendars....
[Windows Phone 7 General] flashpanda:
Sorry to break it to you, but Microsoft legitimately don't give a crap about 'geek wm users'. It's not in their gameplan, and it's certainly not profitable to aim devices at such a small demographic.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tricsio:
To answer you question, YES multiple canlendar will be handled in WP7 series

I have standard card on HTC 8gb
[Touch HD Android Development] Byte_76:
Try backup the data on your memory card and format the card as fat32. Unzip the contents of the Jaunty package so that you have clean files to work with again. (no failed boots)

Edit the startup.txt as seen in my message above and change the wl1251_mac with your phone's mac address.

Copy the following into the root of your memory card:

haret.exe, initrd.gz, startup.txt, Ubuntu.img, zImage

Run haret on the phone!

I hope this works for you!
[Touch HD Android Development] fusion822:
this files must be copy to root folder?

Ok im trying to free time ;)

@ Ehh..

Im formating my sd card to FAT32, i change the mac adress and just copy this files to root folder ( Fresh unpacking files from jaunty archive )

[Touch HD Android Development] Byte_76:
Yes it is correct that all the files should be in the root of your memory card.

It seems that Rhobuntu does not work with your memory card.

In my case, I did everything the same way that you did it and everything works. The only difference is, I am using a 4GB class 6 MicroSDHC.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LoGaY:
Anyone Know how to delete "APP2SD" from my sdcard?

I've Already made some partitions on my microSD 2GB, after I've finished the partitions, my storage in my MicroSD card change from 2GB to 1.5GB.

and, last day, i bought new MicroSD 4GB, and I put my 1.5GB SDCard, and put into my Windows Mobile Omnia Pro.

and I wanna turn back my 1.5GB into 2GB again.

but how?I've already format it, and I've already made 0mb partitions from Recovery,but it's still read 1.5GB...

any suggestions?

:D:D:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arthofer:
you got to make new partitions...

your ext partition covers 512MB which leaves 1.5gig for FAT...so even if you formatt is, it will stay at 1.5...

make new partitions in recovery menu...0 MB ext, 0 MB swap, remaining FAT
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ayush20m:
get gparted in Linux. your apps2sd partition can not be seen by Windows, so formatting is not an option.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
sounds and looks like trouble with apps2sd, any information on that?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dpi295:
Well, i partitioned it with only swap and fat32, no ext2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] carbonyle:
AFAIK SWAP partition is more or less the same that EXT partition, seems app2sd is buggy and use the first "UNIX"-like partition it found, here: swap so

either desactivate app2sd or reformat you microSD card like this (eg.)

[sdb1]- a as big you want FAT32 partition

[sdb2]- something like 500mg - 1GB ext2/3 partition (don't use ext4, you'll need a kernel that support it, ext2 is fine)

[sdb3]- 64-128mb swap partition

format it using "gparted" (a livecd is fine if you're not running linux)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
try booting without the sdcard inserted. swap isn't needed anyway btw.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
So is there an app or any known hack to add cities/zipcodes to the weather database? I looked at the weather app but it doesn't list the cities I want to check the weather for. I guess I will have to put the 3rd party weather app back on if there is no solution.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] darchstar:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
I recharged my phone in an hour when it had just powered off by itself for being too low... I used it for like 5 minutes and it was already down to 80%... Bad battery?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:
Sure sounds like a bad battery.

Just to make sure...

1) make sure you don't have some app that is running GPS

2) If not needed, try turning off BlueTooth

Those two items will drain battery faster than usual.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] manifest3r:
I sometimes find the battery is really inaccurate, depends on if the phone's running hot or whatnot...

Also you might want to get a task manager and periodically close all the apps (some apps have a one-click kill all widget), and turn off syncing, gps, and bluetooth :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
Battery indicator hasn't always been accurate or me - even with a brand new battery
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
There are several apps/widgets that are poorly coded which cause high battery drain as well.

Try only using stock widgets as well, I find that helps alot.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
Yea, the only Widget I run thats not stock is Beautiful Widgets Home Small, set to update every 2 hours.

I have bluetooth and GPS off always unless I'm actively using them. I just seemed strange it was so fast to recharge mainly.

I've noticed the battery capacity jumps up and down depending on what you are doing. For example if I disable 3G, it jumps up, if I enable it, it might jump down 10% briefly then go back to where it was...

Very strange.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] brunes:
Also, I find the app Juice Defender (free version) is a life saver. My battery life has gone from around 12 hours to > 2 days since using it.

What it does is disable your 3G AP and only enables it every X minutes for Y minutes.. I think the default is 15/2. The result is you still get your notifications (a few mins behind), but your battery lasts WAAAYYYY longer.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:
Thanks for the tip!

Now going hunting for "Juice Defender".
[Touch CDMA Android Development] blackrook:
yeah, juice defender is great. The free version has limited options but the default options really save battery life on my vogue.

I read a while ago that there was a problem with the stock text messaging app. Is that resolved? I use Handcent SMS, but i don't know if it is good or bad for battery life comparatively.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
JuiceDefender is fantastic, it works. Except you can't be listening to anything and have it running (music, podcasts, etc...) because when it kills the 3G connection the audio stops. I've talked with dzo and looked at the code myself and I don't see a way to keep it from happening unless there's a way to kill the 3G connection without issuing an 'ATH' to the modem or somehow ignoring the 'No Carrier' message that follows it...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Gersonian:
this happens no matter what music player you are using? I was hoping it was just Cube, but had not gotten a chance to try with other media players. Is there a way to create an ap that autodiables jucedefender when you play music?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
Not that I'm away of... I just manually disable juicedefender before I start playing my music... and HOPE that I remember to turn it back on...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Jiggity Janx:
I am not endorsing this battery/seller/etc or that this is the battery to buy in any way. Just came across this opportunity and wanted to put it out there for anyone that wanted to check it out:

First of all, hello everyone.

I'm beginning to feel like flashing custom 2.1 ROMS (SenseHero 2.1, 2.2, Villains 5.3, 5.4) requires some black magic. Regardless what I do, it never goes beyond first boot screen. The animation for SensHERO stops and it's just locked, and so is the Villains releases

I did wipe to factory and wipe dalvik. Anything else I should do? I tried the flashing already a dozen times........there's gotta be something wrong I'm doing.

anyone has any idea ?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] maiahsdad:
Hello everyone,

I am writing because I am unable to find an answer by searching, and it seems that the TCP Elite Version 11 thread is DEAD although not closed (locked).

When I go to the TOOLS menu for my different email accounts on my TILT (running this ROM), there's an option to Manage Folders. Well, I've just added a new email account, and this option is NOT there for some reason. Therefore, as I am usually able move email to folders I've created on my web-based email program, I cannot do it anymore with this account. The previously created email accounts work as normal with this function active. But with the new account, it's not possible.

So in short, I can't sync my folders anymore because for some reason my device is not recognizing that I have web folders anymore.

Any thoughts on this.

My existing accounts are sbcglobal.net accounts. The new account is an att.net account (Yahoo is not issuing sbcglobal accounts anymore).

Thanks for your help.
[Desire General] Hirsch2k:
Ok, now the the 1 Million Dollar question. I'm thinking of my HTC Nike an the whole htcclassaction Issue.

I know the Desire has an 600 MHz DSP for decoding 720p video. I know Qualcomm states that the Snapdragon does have "High-performance 3D graphics – up to 22M triangles/sec and 133M 3D pixels/sec".

I know Android 2.1 supports OpenGL ES 2.

But does the Desire have an own GPU for 3D, Graphics and GUI like the Iphone (no, I don't like the Iphone) or does it run things like Android GUI or 3D in Software?

I'm planning to buy a Desire next week, but if HTC misses again, it would be an huge point against the Desire (at least for me).
[Desire General] chrism_scotland:
Nope its all part of the Snapdragon CPU its not a separate GPU like the iPhone, Droid or Nokia N900.
[Desire General] abc27:
The Snapdragon can't match the OMAP 3460 in 3D performance unfortunately. Thankfully for us though, snapdragon android phones are WAY more numerous than OMAP phones so most games will be optimized for the Snapdragon
[Desire General] Hirsch2k:
Wow, that really sucks. So i think i will wait until there is a smartphone with Tegra or maybe Tegra 2. But thanks for you reply.
[Desire General] DSF:
If you want pure (graphics) performance you should skip qualcomm-enabled devices.

See video comparison (ToonWarz)

HTC Desire (qualcom snapdragon 1ghz + Adreno 200 GPU)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVzkank7iOw

Motorola Milestone (ARM Cortex 8 550Mhz + PowerVR GPU) - min 4:23

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn-XaaQXIxw

You can wait till Samsung Galaxy S and see how it performs.. even if i hate samsung custom UI and all iphone copying stuff

L.E.

Another example (Asphalt 5)

- Motorola Milestone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUlsfP38lSM

- HTC Desire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIEwlL73utM

As you can see the performance is better in good old Motorola Milestone.

In general, you can skip HTC cos' they always use the cheapest piece of hardware. And that's not only related to SoC (CPU, GPU) but also related to display (see the multitouch bug, a lot of videos there - Motorola Milestone doesn't suffer for this). The things I will mis about HTC are the Sense UI and trackball. Otherwise, screw htc.
[Desire General] Hirsch2k:
OK, now I'm a little confused. So the Desire does have a GPU (Adreno 200)? And I was looking at benchmarks in youtube (I cannot post links, so search for "Motorola Milestone/Nexus One - Neocore Benchmark") where Milestone gets 20,6 fps and Desire 26,3 fps.

But I fear that again HTC misses to hardware accelerate the GUI.
[Desire General] abc27:
Neocore is Qualcomm optimized so it will always outperform the Milestone. In raw 3d power, the milestone can perform better.
[Desire General] Hirsch2k:
Hm, I think I will wait for the Samsung Galaxy S.
[Desire General] sonyxperia2:
Galaxy s is samsung... and this mean it sux. They have no care about fixing buggs, look at omnia 2, since june last year, no one upgrade, i have a bug that i cant send message to some number in my phone. And a lot of.. They do not optimize phone. They sell you one, that's it. You are alone now. Good luck with samsung, my f.....g samsung is still waitng to be repaired, 3 month in support assistant mean for me never get 1 only things that have samsung writed
[Desire General] abc27:
I wouldn't bother.

Developers back the majority and the majority is Snapdragon powered phones, not OMAP and not whatever chip Samsung is using.
