Hello!

I have been having a small issue with the touchscreen. This all started when I noticed I could type faster on my iPod touch than I can on my Incredible (no, not another Apple fanboy lol). So I started to look into what was causing this. Quite quickly I noticed that some keyboard presses did not register, but I saw the icon pop up (to show which key I was pressing)! This only happened if I typed fast... so then I started to look deeper into why the icon popped up but it didn't type the key. I figured out that if you touch two points too quickly, the screen registers it as a "drag" event. As a side note, I've been using Smart Keyboard Pro for it's multitouch capability. I've tested this by tapping twice quickly in Swype, and sure enough, it drew a line between two keys.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this?

Thanks,

x.v_

I made a video to demonstrate what I'm talking about!

it has nothing to do with multitouch. do the same thing but hold a finger on a and a finger on l at the same time, then let go of a and the same thing happens. you're just touching it fast enough that that's how it's registering. it's not the screen, it's the apps. swype isn't multitouch so that's what happens when you try.
[Droid Incredible General] x.v_:
...I didn't say it had to do with multitouch? It is a global problem, not just apparent in some apps. This seems to be a bug in how the phone handles two points being touched too quickly. This should not happen.

I have recently unlocked and rooted my Nexus One and wanted to tinker with the ROM that came with the phone ... basically I want to create a MetaMorph to change out the status bar.

I tried to open the zip file for the ROM so I could poke around and find those files (names and folder stack) so I can modify them and create the MetaMorph zip.

Can't get the zip open, it extracts a .cpgz and then I end up in a loop. Tried using The UnArchiver to open it up and still no luck. Anyone have any idea of how I might do this? perhaps there is an easier way to find the names and locations of these files, or maybe someone knows what & where they are?

Thanks

wow ... 51 views an no one has an answer? :rolleyes:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iczerjones:
I'd prefer if someone who has some experience tinkering with the ROM package chimes in, but from a glance it looks like a gzip'd cpio archive. I know how to unpack that in Linux, not so sure on Windows or Mac.

If it's packed anything like an initrd, then you'll unzip the file and pipe the output to cpio for extraction.

gzip -dc your_rom.cpgz | cpio -id

That will unpack it in the local directory, and if it is the entire packed ROM, will contain many folders and files, so be aware of where you unpack it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pIxiLatEd:
thanks for the info. I am doing this on osx so it's going to be a bit different - but it got me started on another learning path, lol. so that's good.

What I realized is that I like the stock ROM - everything works as it should and so I want to take it and start learning to tweak the stock to my liking. Rotation on home screen & metamorphing/skinning.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darkarmyofone:
you can emulate windows and gain easier acces to dev tools and such, from my experience hacking android phones on OSX is a bit more painfull, but im a windows/linux junkie...

Best of luck on your venture my friend, keep us posted, im getting ready to get me a nexus one myself :D

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pIxiLatEd:
^^ Thanks for the good wishes. I have access to Win, Linux, and OSX - but OSX is just preferred right now. Will use Linux to compile and such once that time comes.

Took a few tries trying gzip/gunzip ... but ultimately the easiest and most obvious seemed to work.

Mac OSX - open a terminal and use:

unzip /file_directory/file_name.zip

Seemed to work, but did throw an error.

I started from scratch and did not source cyanogen's repositories. what build target should i specify? Every target from the lunch menu seems to be eclair. So what do i do to select donut?
[G1 Android Development] xrCore:
You do

Then select dream-open (eng or userdebug).

Don't forget when you do repo init to set the branch to donut:
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
you should probably download the donut branch and not the eclair branch
[G1 Android Development] jubeh:
Eclair is very broken for build. Currently, Master is a snapshot of 2.1r1, so you'd best build master (donut stock is very broken too).

Unfortunately, at this time, there's no way to switch branches once you've synced a repository.

Unless there's a better way to do it that I don't know about, I keep different branches downloaded on different directories. It's redundant because the whole information for all branches/commits is downloaded to .repo anyway, so I don't see why branch switching is not possible. Anyway, if you want donut, create another directory, cd to it, and repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b donut (I suggest donut-plus-aosp instead, builds a bit better than donut).
[G1 Android Development] kingkurry:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mano1982:
Hi,

On my X10 i can't send MMS although MMS-settings are installed. When i try to send MMS, it keeps sending (It shows that message is being sent), but if i check after 1 hour, it still sending :-/ I tried to install MMS-settings again & after that i sent MMS, it was sent. I tried again to send MMS, same problem again... Again new MMS-settings, can send 1 MMS & have to install MMS-settings again :-/

What is it & how can i fix it? :(

Dancingfate from Esato has same problem:

Same here... from the day I bought it till today I cannot send nor receive MMS.

I tried auto setting, manual setting, requested OTA from provider, or requested the setting from SE website.

Did master reset, reflashed thru SEUS, update to R1FA016 thru DaVinci, all of them gave me the same result.

The MMS notification is received but the content cannot be downloaded.

All MMS sent items are always pending.

The SIM cards I'm using are no problems with other SE phones.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamppot:
I had a problem with sending an MMS as well (only sending though). I know that my provider has a limit of 300Kb for sending MMS. Unfortunately, when attaching a photo to the MMS, Android will happily attach the entire photo (all 8Mpixels of it) to the MMS, blowing the limit. Then the MMS refuses to be sent, without giving an indication of the size being the problem.

Downscaling the photo solved this. Afterwards, I received it just fine.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mano1982:
Thank You so much Stomppot for tips, but how can i downscal a photo before sending mms? Sorry i'm n00b :-S

I found my problem is due to "Quick-Settings".

for those who have problems with MMS, just reflash your phone to Rogers 2.1 firmware and reset your MMS configuration and it will work again.

Hope this help :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sillysquid:
I think this is probably the same answer as the one above but ...

In some of the updates I found the data settings weren't quite correct even though the update had stated the correct carrier info during the setup. I had the same issue as the OP and the mms would just be stalled sending.

i just went on my carrier website and got them to send the settings to my phone and it all worked fine then.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thran8:
who do you have?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BingoRingo:
Rogers' old MMS settings don't work with 2.1.

Delete APN settings for both MMS and internet and use these for both:

APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

Proxy: <not set>

Port: <not set>

Username: <not set>

Password: <not set>

MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com

MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69

MMS Port: 80

MCC: 302 (retrieved from SIM)

MNC: 720 (retrieved from SIM).

Authentication type: <not set>

APN type: <not set>

It should work!

As for the other carriers, maybe it's the same problem? Ask your carrier for the latest settings.

There are no live wallpapers in the release. It's unlikely that Sprint will ever include them.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatguythatdid:
bad idea if you run the new ruu you could lose the ability to use internet and mms if it doesn't have your apn settings in it. And since there is no way to root 2.1 unless you know how to make an exe and an hboot file. You could be screwed till the official release.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatguythatdid:
Your probably right and I'll tell you why sprint makes money if we don't have those things. Also if you look at the samsungs update (which the samsung has a better processor than ours) it doesn't have them.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeroMeng:
That makes no sense..... you need a custom recovery to flash update.zips. If you try to boot into recovery you'll get the exclamation point.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolemnWishing:
I've been stuck on a 1.6 version ROM for a long time now, and honestly the extra features in 2.1 don't really appeal to me all that much, however, my favorite theme, DarkStar, no longer is supporting the SuperD line of version 1.6 ROMs and are likely going to be incompatible with any future version 1.6 ROM updates, this theme however is available for Cyanogen 5.0.7, but this is a version 2.1 ROM. I want to know how the performance is on this ROM in comparison to a 1.6 ROM, because I know most if not all devices running 2.1 have substantially more RAM and occasionally a faster processor too. Speed is a pretty big deal to me, and I am slightly hesitant to switch to Cyanogen because in the past I have tried a Cyanogen ROM around 3 times, and each time it would start out fast then turn unusable slow after a couple weeks, along with that it would drop text messages and not be able to receive MMS at all [dropping them]. That however is in the past, so i was just wondering if I could get some input on this, because if 2.1 is even a hair slower than 1.6, then I am simply not interested.

EDIT: I do use my phone to text and make phone calls a lot therefore reliable is essential to me. However, even on the 1.6 ROM I am on (its the SuperD version 2 versions behind the current one, I havent updated because the theme i want isn't compatible) there are still a few bugs, especially with messaging. Several times a day it will just stop being able to send SMS messages, it will just say error every time, this can be fixed by restarting the application, however the problem is that even though it says error, sometimes the message does indeed go through even though it says it doesn't, which is a bit problematic as I don't know whether or not my friends have received the message or not, or if I should try resending it and end up looking a bit dumb sending multiple messages of the same thing.
