[G1 General] Neejay:
When I tried to flash my recovery, I got a lot of "mtd: read error at 0x00000000 (Out of memory)" errors. Problem is, using CM5.0.7-test2, now my phone isn't being recognized via my computer. It charges just fine, but it isn't showing up. (seems to be fairly reoccurring in test2)

Fastboot mode -> "fasboot devices" yields nothing.

Any suggestions, ideas, thoughts?
[G1 General] DirectMatrix:
For the device not being recognized, I did a fix_permissions, and a reboot on both my computer and device and that seemed to clear it up. Haven't had a problem since.

Hope that helps
[G1 General] Neejay:
Thanks man, I figured out the fix permissions (fix uid mismatches) via recovery, AFTER I remembered to enter "mount -a" and was able to flash the recovery. :p

Thanks for at least replying/offering help though!
[G1 General] rocky2005:
I tried the fix permissions thing by putting it in the console but that didnt work, what worked for me was that I had to go into the system settings and turn off debugging mode while connected and it worked perfectly.

I'm not able to listen to online radios which I was able to do with my old T-Mobile Wing. What do I need to do?
[HD2 General] egzthunder1:
You mean like Slacker? What exactly can't you do? (sound not coming out, no connection, etc)?
[HD2 General] tuss:
The website of online radios doesn't display correctly.It says something like this page is formatted by google. Do I need a flash player or something?
[HD2 General] merkman90:
You should have a program called slacker on your phone
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
what's the exact url of the site? and which browser did you use on your phone to access it?
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
As far as stopping Google from formatting your pages, do this:

Open opera and perform a google search

Scroll to the bottom of the search results and look for the link called "Settings"

(You may have to zoom in to click the link)

Under "Format web pages for your phone", click "Off"

(I also click "Off on "SafeSearch" and "Save Recent Locations")

Voila, all webpages will now be formatted via opera instead of Google.
[HD2 General] tuss:
Unfortunately, I am not allowed to post URLs, but I use Opera. I got rid of that Google formatting, but there is still no sound. It looks like Windows Media Player plug-in for Opera is missing. How to get it?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Ok, I got the URL you PM'd (http://local.trio.ee/ot/mp3/mp3player/elmarwmp.html) and opened it in my desktop browser first. It did just open a WMP plugin and started an mp3 stream, but it took quite a while to buffer at first, and kept needing to pause and re-buffer every minute or so...so it looks like the feed isn't that stable to begin with.

Now, I tried opening that url directly in WMP on the phone, and it wouldn't play it...it started to open, then just gave an "error has occured" message and wouldn't play it. So, even if there is a 'wmp plugin' for opera (I've never seen one), it probably wouldn't help in this case since the onboard WMP doesn't seem capable of playing it anyway.

Some of the other common media players (TCPMP/Coreplayer, nitrogen, etc) might be able to open that url and play the stream, but I don't have any on hand right now to test. Each of them has an option to "open URL", just find that and put that address in and see if they can do it any better.

EDIT: The stream that the player at that URL starts is this: http://striiming.trio.ee:8008/elmar.mp3?stream=elmar&format=mp3. I tried that in WMP as well, it said the file was corrupt or in a format it couldn't play. Opera offered to open the file, and did play the music, but it only played the current track being streamed (that stream seems to serve up a rotation of ~3MB mp3's) once it finished downloading the whole mp3.
[HD2 General] tuss:
Desktop browser? What is that?
[HD2 General] spencer911:
He meant he used his Desktop computer before he tested on his phone. Lol
[HD2 General] tuss:
Well, for some reason, I'm not able to play any radio stations anymore. Please let me know what URLs work for you, so that I can test?

You should be running 1.6 - at least thats the version that works best for me.

Download Titanium Backup or someother program that requires root - See if it is blank for those apps as well.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] drummingfool:
Did you, by chance, enable usb debugging? That may fix it.

Settings > Applications > Development > Check "USB Debugging".

This has worked for me when Root Required apps arent cooperating.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chapell:
Hi everyone. The question is: Is the above possible? Can I manually edit the translations of the languages on an Android phone? And is it possible with HTC Sense UI?

I know there is the MoreLocale2, but it's far from perfect. (the Settings menu and most text on the UI stays english with the hungarian option)

HTC doesn't want to add hungarian, but Samsung and Sony Ericsson (X10) made hungarian translations.

It's not just for hungarian, it's for every language that's been excluded.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zippy-man:
yes it is possible but you would gave to edit a lot of apk's within sense UI for it to be 100 percent complete as most of the language data us stored within the apk its self and would take a considerable amount of time to edit each one individually and resign the entire Rom.

best bet really is more locale. you can also chandelier these settings in /system/customize in the default.xml files but language support it limited to what the apps were compiled with.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Konamy:
I want to do that in this galaxy 551 rom: http: //hotfile.com/dl/135840464/6df9e71/GT-I5510_DBT_I5510XWKPB_I5510XXKPK_I5510DBTKP1.rar.html It's german, and have Pt-Pt, but don't have Pt-Br. I just want to translate the system phone language, not all apps. Can you show me how to do it and put here the files needed to be changed? Also the files location in rom. Thank you.

why the xperia flash light doesnot work when using camera ,is this my phone issue ,and where can i enaple it
[XPERIA X10 General] arcticreaver:
it's not a true flash. more like a light that is either on or off. maybe 2.1 will bring us real flash but who knows.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
You have to switch it on from within the camera menu.. advanced settings, photo light. (it's not a flash!!)
[XPERIA X10 General] Udonitron:
Not yet at least...the Nexus has a killer flash, albeit a little washed out on photos.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nocturnal310:
its an LED..similar to one on X1
[XPERIA X10 General] hoss_n2:
but on x10 official site it is said that it is flash
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
It says "photo light" on the uk site.
[XPERIA X10 General] hoss_n2:
look at this link it says flash /light (photo light ) which means it is flash light not just a lamp http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/mobilephones/overview/xperiax10?cc=gb&lc=en
[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
i'm sorry friend, it's just a photo light no matter what it says on any web site

hopefully that might change with some updates...

heh, it's not supposed to work as a flash :) sorry
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
flash/ light type is the heading... Photo light is the specification for this handset.

Flash / light type - Photo light

Have to agree with the OP. BUT it is SE description/specification sheets that are at fault. See winge about bluetooth and voice dialling!

[G1 General] zim2dive:
I am at "1d 3h 26m 36s since unplugged" and sitting at 73% battery, which is probably better than I have ever seen.. the 2 changes I made were

a) removing Home++ so I could try ADWLauncher (this was just for kicks)

b) as a consequence of removing Home++, my home screen widgets were removed, and I chose not to re-add most.

This made me wonder about widgets... ie I realized that I never see any widgets listed when I look at the battery consumption stats??

I was wondering if maybe widgets were "absorbed" into the Phone Idle or Cell Standby stats? (ie. they were run too close to the OS to be separated out by the battery use routine?)

EDIT: all of my searches kept returning widgets that reported battery status, instead of the info described above
[G1 General] JAguirre1231:
It makes sense that when something is constantly updating itself it is constantly using battery, no?
[G1 General] r3s-rt:
Did you even bother to read what he was asking? Did you even read the TITLE?

He's asking if it gets reported, recorded, if he can somehow look up how much battery they are using. He never once suggests anything close to asking if they use battery. Actually, he clearly points out that they DO and he wants to be able to see how much.

As for OP, don't know. What are you using to see battery history? In Spare Parts I see nothing like this, and I would assume that they use quite a lot, also depending on how often you have them set to update, etc.
[G1 General] JAguirre1231:
I read it and to me it sounded like he was wondering if they used more battery. So, I DID read it, just misunderstood.

In my tiny brain, it sounded like he was wondering if it had been reported that widgets use more battery.

I made a mistake, it is perfectly acceptable to do so. Part of life is making said mistakes and learning from them.

And before anyone says something, I do indeed have a tiny brain, around the size of a raisin.

Anyways, back on topic. If they are kept anywhere I would be willing to bet they are grouped with "Cell Standby".
[G1 General] zim2dive:
That's as far as my small brain got as well. Alas,(if that is the case) that would make it tough to ferret out the "expensive" (in terms of battery usage) widgets :(
[G1 General] r3s-rt:
Well, you can kinda at least group by simple logic. Which ones use most memory? Which ones update most often? You won't get numbers, but you'll at least be able to weed out that one widget that takes 6 battery every 30 minutes.

Sent from my HTC Magic using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[G1 General] JAguirre1231:
As the poster above me said, group it by logic. Things like Twicca's widget will use the least amount of power (However, Twicca won't) because all it does is launch different parts of the app. Then there are things like Beautiful Widgets which check the weather at a set amount of time. Using this example (and if these are the only widgets on your home screen), we would want to remove Beautiful Widgets to save battery before we remove the Twicca Widget.

Likewise, if we want to save battery we can have these widgets update less often.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Fredr1kh:
Hi everyone.

as i first got my phone i noticed it would unlock when pulling the stylus out. does anyone have the correct registry entries to make this happen?

(did search the forum, and came out empty, only one with the same question, but with a Fuze, and tryed searching the Fuze part to.)

another thing i would like is the phone to autorotate when not locked, when turning the phone on its side.

registry entries to add or change would be appreciated.

(forum searched)

also, using the dia_jeeve room, one with titanium.

radio, 1.17.25.09

(advanced config tool, not working properly, as it will not make the changes permanent).

Thanks in advance

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
ok I've voiced my opinion on android multitasking before. but this has me confused. I seem to lose RAM over time.

my setup is that I basically run my phone stock. no killing apps with task killers. I run the following services, HTC keyboard, Google finance, battery widget, Google voice/talk/gmail. that's basically it.

when I first start my phone, a bunch of apps show up running and the phone has 30 mb free RAM. over 24 hours less and less apps stay in the cache as "inactive" or "background", until only the above services I run are left running. yet the RAM stays at 30 mb free RAM still. why is this happening? I tested this out over 24 hours, but it gets to this point much sooner, maybe after an hour or so.

edit: also why can't the OS anticipate the apps I DO frequently use and keep THOSE cached in memory? literally the phone pre loads every single app I DON'T use, like Google earth, mp3 store, etc.

Um, may I ask are you annoyed, or are you just interested? Unless your phone is lagging due to apps being idle, how much RAM you have shouldn't even concern you.. not to sound rude or anything, but are you like this on an actual computer as well? People seem to be obsessed with RAM consumption, if my phone doesn't have any issues.. I don't care how much RAM I currently have.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
I'm just curious. this does kind of effect things because things like opera start to close just by switching away from it when these conditions happen. but a reboot and opera will keep my page loaded for hours.

it shouldn't matter either way, we are all trying to learn and understand how android works. and the point me this thread is I think this is a bug or a memory leak that people might not know about.

I don't use a computer ever, all phones.

when u try to use the cammera, it won't work at all, when i touch it just does nothing, not even open any aplication, also when i turn on the wireless, it won't detect any network. I have trying installing diferent radios and rom's and nothing happened. Also my bluetooth doesn't work......:(

Please, if someone could please help me to fix mi blackstone, please..

You can also just add the shortcut by going to add -> shortcut -> settings -> battery use :)

[Nexus One General] D200P13:
is there a app that tells you what app is using/has used what % of the bettery?

similar to the Battery History built in when pressing *#*#4636#*#*

an example like...

Wifi: 15%

Screen:15%

Android: 50%

Slacker Radio: 10%

Weather Bug Elite: 10%

i dunno something like that im just wondering if there is any apps like that because the market apps mostly all just give me overall battery %
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
I've been searching for some thing like this for a LONG time. I'm pretty sure it's impossible to tell battery usage by app aside from the built-in battery history.

It's too bad because on Sense ROMs, the built-in history app lumps like 20 apps into the single category "Android System", which makes it totally useless for seeing what takes up battery.
[Nexus One General] D200P13:
aww well nice to know im not the only one who wants and looked for this and i agree with you about the built in histroy wish someone would make a better one.

Wake/Unlock using Trackball

Hey everyone im using Kang-o-rama (cyanogen 5.0.6) and was wondering what exactly the difference between “use trackball to wake” and “use trackball to unlock”.

What I would honestly like is for the screen to dim after 1 minute and then lock after 5 minutes... So that if I press the trackball in between 1 and 5 minutes, the screen just turns back on without the unlock panel... Any way to do this?
[Nexus One General] lynx_deb:
the first only turn on the display, the second, when the display is on unlock your device directly to the home without need to swipe to right to unlock it :)
[Nexus One General] Sane1:
So I really want to upgrade to the nexus one, but I'm on contract for another 19 months. I was thinking about adding another line and getting it for $179. I have an individual plan. myfaves 400, 400 texts and unlimited web. When I add another line on googles site it changes my plan to 500 minutes, unlimited text plus web. I think it actually ends up $10 cheaper then what I'm paying now.

Here is the thing, I'm still on a contract and when I change my plan to mach that on T-Mobiles site I get a warning saying I may be charged a $200 ETF if I change my plan. Will I?
[Nexus One General] ohgood:
buy it

i don't know the specifics for existing customers, but i'll bet its a good deal cheaper to just buy it. if any thing happens to cancel the contract, you'll owe a ton after buying the nexus on time payments.

add a line - why not just toss your current phone, and use the n1 in it's place ?

your current situation is my strongest argument for never signing a contract with a telephone company.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Yes, you will get charged.

In the long run, you'll be spending *A LOT* more on that extra line.

It's cheaper to buy the phone outright.

Clean your myTouch and sell it ;)

I sold my G1 for $160.
[Nexus One General] Sane1:
I think thats what I'm going to do. Just buy it full price. I'll never buy another phone on contract again. The MyTouch was the first phone I ever bought on a contract and it was really just an impulse buy. Never again.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
I would also recommend getting one of these:

When I wiped my ext partition and had maybe 20 default apps on, the app launcher moved like a beast, instant, basically like the godly iphone UI + a discrete adjuster.

However now I'ved restored my 250ish apps/elements it now lags like a mofo. What I want to know is what physically is being limited hardware wise, and is there any way to boost the performance of this memory? I assume it would be between CPU, RAM and GPU, although I dont understand how it could be annoy of those [sorry for my noobishness]:

CPU: Snapdragon, OCed, not exactly CPU intensive anyway

RAM: Have 250MB free, never seems to get 'full' when i quickly tab to the usage

GPU: This is what I guess, but if so why cant we get around this with a less intensive menu setup? Surely all that is happening is we have 20-25 icons + labels floating up and down on a screen? To be honest id prefer literally just that on an instant screen over the 'oo that looks nice.... oh wait it lags like a *****' we have now.

Any comments would be appreciated :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
well, one thing which would probably slow down the launcher is the sd card speed... and considering u've got a helluva lot of apps on ur sd card, it seems like a plausable reason...
