[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jmpnjimbob:
Flashing your Viva

Hey guys, I'm a newbie here also and you are right, it is confusing. But here's what I've been able to figured out.

Go to this thread and download the file Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.zip.

When you uncompress this file you'll find see the file Opal_HardSPL_v2.exe. This program is what you use initially to flash the ROM of your Viva so that it's able to be Flashed with newer ROMs.

Download the ROM of your choosing. Sorry, can't help you much here. There are a lot of different ROMs out there and everyone's tastes are different.:)

Some of the ROMs that you download come with an installation program and some do not. After un-compressing your downloaded ROM if all you have is the single file RUU_signed.nbh then all you have is a ROM.

If you need an ROM update program there are a few out there to choose from. Here is a link to one that you can use.

If your ROM didn't come with an instalation program then copy it into the directory with the installation program you just downloaded and uncompressed.

You need to have your Viva connected and synced to you computer before continuing. Once this is done Flash your Viva with Opal_HardSPL_v2.exe that you previously downloaded.

Re-sync your Viva to the computer.

Flash your Viva by double clicking the ROM Update utility executable.

It takes about 10 minutes or so, be patient. Your Viva will reboot when the Flash is complete and you then just follow the instruction of the screen.

I think that about covers it. If anyone has any suggestions or updates or knows of something that I forgot to mention then please post a response.

Thanks

I'm having much fun with my new Legend, and I love android 2.1!

Everythings goes smooth except the connection with my car.

I have a pretty new Audi TT from 2008, and with my old phone (t-mobile G1), I used it without a problem for over a year.

One month ago I bought the Legend, and bluetooth connection to the car seems to hang!, Even when I disable bluetooth, the phone becomes slow, and the bluetooth icoon keeps displaying in my notification erea.

One thing works, when I reset the phone, I can use the carkit for about 10 minutes, then it starts to disconnect. The adress book never syncs.

Can people please reply if they got their legend work properly with their bluetooth car kit.

Also when other people have problems, please reply here!

Thnx
[Legend General] David67:
I have a mini cooper S with BT car kit.

The connection is good and all the contats are correctly transferred but sometimes the connection has been lost.

It seems it happens during the net switch (between UMTS/GSM).
[Legend General] __BlackEyed__:
Same problem here. Kenwood DDX7029 with BT. 5 out of 10 times the phone won't connect when starting the car. Dis- and enabling BT does the trick.
[Legend General] lectere:
This implies that if you disable data-roaming, it would work all the time?, I'm gonna try that out! Thanks for your reply!
[Legend General] salar1983:
Hi there. My first post in XDA :)

So cool that I found this thread because I have the exact same problem. I have an Audi A3 and the bluetooth connection is 9 out of 10 times lost during conversations and then the bluetooth icon just hangs until I boot the phone.

I'm gonna try to disable the data-roaming and see whether it works.
[Legend General] Dide:
Still problem carkit/bluetooth Legend!!

Hi all,

I still/also experience problems with my Audi A4 carkit.

Also my colleague with a Opel Insignia experiencing the same problems.

I have to reset the bluetooth or reboot the phone te fix it

It is very annoying when you loose the bluetooth connection within a call.

I have already sent a message to HTC...and still waiting!

Switching off the data roaming or fix the UMTS/GSM settings doesn't help

Somebody a sollution?

Audi UHV 6654 problems

I have a BIG problem with this car kit connection...BIG means the device is useless till now.

I've paired the Legend with my A4 factory car kit and there are several problems:

1. No sounds come from the speakers (car speakers), still the michrophone is working fine. I had to put the phone on loudspeaker to hear something but of course this is not the normal way of using a car kit:(

2. There is no sound till the call is actually ongoing (the other party respond)...that means no ringing, busy tone, or whatsoever sound... I don't even know if the call is made if I'm not looking to the phone (and if it's entering power saving mode, I stare at a blank screen).

I don't have any problems of this kind using a Nokia phone and also they (especially point 2) are happening with all smartphones I've tried (WinMo or Android ones).

Is there any software (even a paid one) to outcome this?

Please don't tell me to "try" this and that, I don't want to spend money "trying" things...I would appreciate if someone had a similar problem and managed to solve it somehow.

P.S The phone is brand new (got it for 2 days by now) and it is not rooted.

P.S.2 The car kit is a "basic" one, don't have navigation, contacts downloading and all that stuff...It's a plain BT car kit, I would just like to be able to make and receive phone calls with it.
[Legend General] lessirey:
Seems like many have bad experience in making the legend and car kit work together.

As of yet I could only pair my legend with my blaupunkt audio system, but they have not yet connected each other successfully to make use of the bluetooth feature. I've had no problem at all using my audio set with my samsung galaxy spica's bluetooth. So it probably is not an android issue.

Is there anyone who didn't experience any such trouble with their legend and car audio system's bluetooth ?
[Legend General] Rapier:
To add some more details...

I search for BT devices, phone finds the Audi UHV car kit. Then I'm asked for the pairing password and I enter it, than I get that "connection sound" from the car speakers but the phone is still "connecting..." endlessly. The BT icon on the phone appears but is the standard one, no headset or car kit icon appears (does it have such an icon after all?)

From here...nothing special happens. When I make or receive a call only the phone is ringing, no sounds came from the car speakers. Only when the call is connected, then I have the bord computer showing "Call..." and the radio/CD is muted...and that's all. The conversation can be heard only into the phone not from car speakers as it was the case with the ringing tone before. When call ends, music resumes.

Ive recently started using Hdwall and did install a custom slider but unistalled it because my albums slider tab wasnt showing me my recent pictures or videos??

cheers peeps!!:confused:
[Desire General] rodhull:
There is no way to *append* or *enqueue* songs to the Now Playing list, so you must create a playlist which will then lets you append - but not whilst it's playing - you must re-load the playlist (and possibly lose your place if you decided in the middle of the list that you wanted to extend it with another few albums). This is no major problem, since you can re-queue and navigate to where you were...

HOWEVER:

Once in the playlist screen when you choose "Add songs" from the Menu button and then choose the Artist - it displays *all* the artist's songs alphabetically (!) Very odd behaviour. Why doesn't it show you their respective albums as it does do if you choose to queue up a single album without first going into the playlist?

Sure you can add an album directly by going to the *albums* screen (from within the playlist), but it won't tell you who they're recorded by, so with a very large connection you simply have to know who your albums are by if you can't make out the thumbnail album cover...

Secondly, and most annoying of all is that if you choose to add songs to the playlist straight from the artist/album screen without first going into the playlist and choosing "add songs", it queues the albums' tracks in alphabetical *not* track order. All my tracks are MP3s and have clean v1 and v2 ID3 tags (with embedded album art) so I know they're not at fault - especially since if you add the albums from within the playlist, it orders them correctly.

Are these problems HTC's or Androids responsibility? It's difficult to tell if the player itself is a Sense app or native Android one with Sense mods since the Desire is my first foray into the Android OS.

I've tried almost every other highly rated free player in the market - MixZing, Museek, Vanilla, MortPlayer, Meridian, Cubed and they all either share some of the above behaviour or are just plain ugly and/or counter-intuitive.

The actual look/function of the built-in Music player is clean, simple and running in native resolution with no silly coverflow/3D effects - just regular browsing which I like, together with the excellent iPod Touch/iPhone-esque "drag/drop to reorder songs" feature, and I love the lockscreen widget (although its response time is sluggish to say the least when pausing a track).

The only other player I've found that allows proper enqueuing (it even gives the choice to append to the end or insert into the middle - thumbs up) and correct album/artist browsing and track ordering is Museek, but its interface is frankly pretty ugly and simply not as clean/efficient as the Desire's own - plus it lacks the lock-screen widget.

Does anyone know of any other (if only there were an Android version of IMO the very best Linux-based player - Amarok v1.4), or if there are rumblings of any of these "features" of the Desire's player being fixed?

Who should I be reporting to for bugfixes/feature requests (Android or HTC)?
[General Questions and Answers] PCHelper:
can i install android on anything else but the samsung preinstalled OS on it?
[General Questions and Answers] Drakh:
You just can't put WinMo/Android to any device, a manufacturer had create the device specifically for WinMo/Android and put the OS in there so drivers and specific support files are available, then it can be modded/upgraded as people do in this site.

Every single device here has been launched with WiMo/Android as their operating system from the manufacturer.

So has anyone got any success with any app, that is reproducible? I've seen a lot of people suggested using Wifi Tether and setting the client's IP to 192.168.2.100, subnet mask to 255.255.255.255 and DNS + gateway both to 192.168.2.24 and then ping from Desire to client 192.168.2.100.

I've tried and at least on an iPhone as a client it didn't work.
[Desire Themes and Apps] larsmarius:
i think you have to look agian, the subnet is 255.255.255.0 and dns/gateway is 192.168.2.254 if you havent chaged the settings in wifi tether. :)

and then if it dont work, you have to ping using a terminal emulator on the android "ping -c 3 192.168.2.100"

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rayjt9:
Hi,

I'm interested in getting my HTC Hero to look like an iPhone.

If it helps, you can pretend I'm doing this out of irony. ;)

Here's what I have so far...

(rom is superhero 1.0.1, running aHome, custom theme and bettercut)

And here's what I need to do:

Change the order of the icons in the status bar

Fix all notification icons into the smaller 16pixel size, including clock font

Edit the dialer buttons to look more like iPhone's

Edit the Calendar and Calculator app

Calendar Widget that looks just like the calendar icon, but changes the date

Dock without using aHome

Anyone know how to change the order of the icons, or have any suggestions (other than "GIVE UP NOW" ;))?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MacaronyMax:
Nice1 Looking Good so far :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rayjt9:
:D Thanks MacaronyMax! I haven't had a chance to work on it much this week because of coursework, but I'll be updating it again soon I hope.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] vido.ardes:
This is looking really good, Imagine running this on an iPhone that is running android... (whoah, head f**k!)

Shame it needs aHome, but keep up the good work
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rayjt9:
Oh man, I need to get ahold of an iPhone. That must be done. XD

Speaking of which. I'll hopefully be updating this either tonight or tomorrow with a useable downloadable version of the theme which will can used for the statusbar icons and maybe something even bigger like the Dialer! :D

Updates are going to be kind of staggered after that, though, as I don't have an iPhone of my own and clear reference pics are hard to come by.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] bonesy:
Answer to 2.....edit framework-res.apk be as creative as u like! Should be able to resize icons in there,as for the icons order...its probably in the same file,just as xml

just got a uk xperia x10 and i think its unlocked, it works to make calls with orange uk and o2 uk etc, but its not getting any 3g or data connections,and browser is not working.

i have tried to select auto internet settings but its ghosted out and i cant select it.

my sim is 3g enabled as it works in my htc desire.

please help
[XPERIA X10 General] dan.expo:
What version of the phone do you have? X10i or X10a

You might have a phone with different frequencies from your network.

you can check the version from the settings -> About Phone -> Model number

You should also be able to install the setting via Setting -> Wireless controls -> Mobile Networks -> Auto Internet Settings
[XPERIA X10 General] gavriel18:
Assuming you have the correct model for your region you should only have to update your apn settings. Call your carrier or google it.
[XPERIA X10 General] miguelsantos1979:
maybe helps

Check the APN settings. My automatic APN settings had a error with the misspelling the user-name. Instead internet, it was intrenet.

Hope it helps.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Also you can (surprisingly?) look on the x10 support pages on the SE website - they have all the details for the UK networks on there so you can set it up manually.

nandroid backup will restore a point in time copy.

If you're using a2sd do a nandroid+ext backup.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior 3000:
i just did nandroid backup. now what. i load the SD card on my computer and copy the file ?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smw6180:
For safekeeping you can, sure. But when you switch ROMs, if you want to switch back to your current, keep the nandroid on your SD card. Then just do a nandroid restore and it'll put you right back where you were when you backed it up.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior 3000:
o alright i see now. it say in the folder like the date i made the back up and stuff. ok cool, thanks a ton !
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smw6180:
No problem. If you want, you can change the name of your nandroid backup. Doesn't matter what it's called. Just don't put any weird characters or spaces in it, and it should restore fine.

I usually name mine something like:

DC_2.0.8.1_5.12.2010_before_screwing_around
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior 3000:
yeah thats what i did. i named it like DC rom. fresh 2.0d rom. ect.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuiQNeZZ:
How do you do that? This is what is messing me up everytime I switch ROMS as I always seem to get a boot loop unless I wipe my ext and lose all my apps. Then I have to redownload them.

I tried Titanium but it doesn't seem to back up your ext.
[HD2 General] mobi:
Hi All,

Are there any cameras around that will allow you to zoom. It does not look like the stock one has that ability. Same thing for video.

Also, anyone have a good way to clean this damn screen? :eek: Its a real fingerprint magnet! LOL
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Hey mobi, I think it's something that just has to be switched on, because on my stock ROM I have zoom on both the camera and the video camera. It's not great, but it's there, it appears when you hit the little slider icon right under the shutter button.

It's possible that I have it available (where you don't) because I've activated all the "extra" camera and video modes with BsB Tweaks, and I guess the zoom is apparently one of them. I thought it was there all along, but if you don't see it on your stock ROM, then that's probably how you can turn it on ;)
[HD2 General] mobi:
Thanks for the info. I do have it I guess I just needed to look harder. Seems like there are a lot of hidden things on here.

I was looking through the manual on the HTC site the other day and even some of the settings that they were talking about were not on there.

An example would be the conference call feature, the landscape mode (which I've somewhat fixed with the landscape cab except even in landscape I have to flick up and down and not left to right on images, etc) and a few others.

Oh well, it’s a learning experience. Just wish they'd enable everything and let us decide what to leave on or turn off. :-)
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I think there's a lot of people here who would agree with that sentiment ;)

However, there's probably exactly the same number of people here who would say, "Just wish they would disable everything and let us decide what to turn on or leave off" LOL
