Best way to start learning how is figuring out where all the files are located, the majority of taskbar files and etc are stored in com.htc.resources.apk and framework-res.apk these will change the most images for you.

Also good way to learn where to put stuff is download a bunch of metamorphs and unzip them to your desktop and have a good look see through all of them you will start getting an idea of where everything is and what does what.

If you need help always feel free to pm me. You are free to use any work from my theme at any time just holler :)

This is Godsons 1.5 and 2.1 theming thread. The first page has alot of useful links to different tutorials as well as the thread itself is a fantastic tutorial just search for what you want to know more about or ask, its really friendly and alot of good advice.

My advice is decide what you want to theme first find something close to it pick it apart find out what makes it tick and replace images with other ones to get the hang of it. Remember nandroid is your friend ;) if something goes awry post it in that thread and ask for advice as to what you did wrong youll get feedback. Good luck and have fun with it.

1)7-zip

2)cs4 & Gimp

3)sdk for a million things (signing,ddms,screen shots, etc..)

4)Notepad++ for editing scripts

5)learn the file system and where the things you want to edit are located

6)Lots of time, and a little luck:D

In the CDMA phone , the dialer Faceplate have two icons . I have a question is how to delete the icons ?

Thank you!

the left is 28236,the right is 21901

but the 28xxx series is become narrow , so the icons covered the numbers of input , I want to delete it .

And , If it can modify become to the Appearance, it is better.

Thanks ！
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
So I totally dropped my phone and shattered my screen today. The phone worked for about an hour then it died. I charged it and when I turned it back on and tried to use it, the screen totally got screwed up and I couldnt do anything.

Its pretty bogus that TMO wants me to pay them another $130 for a replacement phone and if I dont return the broken phone within 15 days, they will charge me another $300.

My GF doesnt really like hers. The APPs are way too expensive. I think she might be going back to her G1. Im seriously thinking about a Nexus One, but would have to dish out another $279 for that phone.

Im torn, i like the phone but Ive had so many issues with service, dropped calls and things not working like they should.

what are your thoughts? Ill try and take a pic of the screen with my GFs cam at some point.

Thanks for listening.

Jason
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Wow, sorry to hear that man :( Did you manage to shatter it even with the rubberized case that came with it still on? I have mine on there at all times, but I'm still terrfied I'm gonna do exactly what you did.

If I were in your exact situation right now, I'd take your gf's HD2, and get her a mytouch slide. You get another chance with what can truly be an awesome phone, and she gets the latest android phone tmo has (or will have very soon) with a hardware qwerty....and, maybe even less out of pocket than the other options.
[HD2 General] secano:
Sorry to hear that...That's exactly what I'm afraid also. Just texted the wife telling her to take care of that beauty cause one drop and it's gone:(
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
How can the HD2 be a powerful phone with all the problems it has? Ive had it replaced already because of the shotty service I was getting in places I had great service with my G1. Even with the flashing of several different ROMs, the phone froze all the time. The only problem with getting her one of the MyTouch Slides is that we used our upgrade eligibility to get the HD2's, so we would have to pay FULL price for the phone. She does really miss the Android market.

Yes, had the rubber case on it, but it landed on the corner of the screen. The rubber case doesnt go over the screen.

So whats the deal with TMO getting the crap end of the stick with phones these days?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Well, it has been for me and others as well...since you were asking, I thought you were saying you thought it might be worth another chance. Did you get a chance to try the new upgrade from Tmo?

I was confused too, when you said you'd have to pay $279 for the N1...I thought that indicated you had an upgrade available to you yet.

And yes, I did notice that the rubber case doesn't go over the screen. I was asking because without that it's possible to have the screen shatter even if the impact point isn't on the face of it.
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
I just havent had the best luck with this phone. Seems like it has lots of potential but its not fairing very well so far. The $279 was a price I pulled from the site. I dobubt TMO would take their phone back and give me some kind of credit on a different phone even with the phone insurance. Hell TMO doesnt even sell the N1.

What new upgrade are you referring too? Was it an upgrade to the stock rom? Ive been using a flashed ROM, so didnt see that there was an upgrade available.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
That's correct, you have to just take the replacement phone of the same model, since it's done through the insurance company totally independent of tmo...they're just the ones who sold you the policy. I honestly was under the impression that the deductible was $100 for the HD2, but if they told you $130 then it must be $130.

I think that the $279 price for the N1 is for new lines and maybe upgrades, but it's honestly been a while since I priced it out.

If you end up deciding to get your HD2 replaced for now, feel free to PM me if you want and I'll do whatever I can to help you avoid having so many issues this time.

LOL That's funny because just 5 minutes before I saw your post I was having a conversation with one of the moderators about how there had been a rediculous number of new threads started in the past 48 hours about the new Tmo ROM update :D

It was pretty much known that it was coming soon, and a couple of days ago somebody found a backdoor to the file on tmo's servers, before they had announced it. A bunch of people (m'self included) grabbed it right away, but it now looks like tmo has pulled the old switcheroo and substitued some oddball incompatible ROM in it's place for the time being (from the Dash, or something equally goofy). Hopefully they'll greenlight it officially soon...this exact thing happend with the tmo TP2 upgrade earlier this year too. I'll be happy to get you a copy, if you have an easy way to transfer a 200MB file ;) You can check out the threads here in the general section about it, there's a lot of reports of what's different, etc.
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
That does kind of suck that I cant get a different phone. Oh well. I may still purchase the replacement phone. The N1 price was for eligible upgrades.

Thanks for the offering of help. I read one of the threads saying it was a Dash file now. Damn TMO. I only read the one thread. Didnt seem like much was different. Have you tried 4shared dot com to upload the ROM too? So since its not "official" than it has to be flashed? But if it were official then it would get sent to the phone from TMO?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Actually, our handy-dandy moderator zelendel has created a link where you can grab it if you want to check it out: Tmo HD2 ROM upgrade

Now, one of the underlying differences between WM and Android is that any updates to WM must be applied manually, even official ones. They come in the form of a full ROM upgrade, not in "patches"...and they're never OTA or direct to the phone. Official carrier or manufacturer issued ROM updates are applied by you running a .exe file on your PC desktop that handles all the flashing for you, over USB. Custom ROMs of course have a more involved/complicated process.

This upgrade at that link has the usual "offical update" installer....but Tmo has obviously decided to hold off on letting us have sanctioned access to it just yet. But, the one they finally release will likely be very close to this one we're playing with now.
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
Thanks for the link and the information. After using the G1 phone for week, I quickly remembered why I didnt want that phone anymore. So last thursday, I ended up ordering a phone from the "insurance". The phone came today. My GF says, they sent me an complete phone package, with case, battery, ear piece, manual and alls I got to do is send back the phone.

I wonder if the phone comes with the update on it already!

I probably wont be able to play with it until tonight, more than likely tomorrow though. Im swamped at work and will more than likely work late tonight.
[HD2 General] toreone:
I snagged the update on the first go around the leaked version and let me tell you it has worked wonders!!!! it has been about two weeks and I have not had the Sleep Screen of Death or any of my other issues! I read about complaints when people downloaded the official one on the 18th but it looks likes they pulled that one because they where having more issues than it fixed?!
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
So is the moderator link the "official" download, or the leaked version?
[HD2 General] zelendel:
It the same one I pulled from the T-mobile site before it was removed.
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
Cool, so its not the broken latest version...woohoo!
[HD2 General] Paten:
It's the same one. There is no difference between the one that was leaked and the one that was removed from T-mobiles website this weekend.
[HD2 General] IllusiveDreams:
so why am I hearing/reading conflicting reports, some say its great, others say more stuff is broken.
[HD2 General] Paten:
Because not everyone uses their phone in the same way or with the same expectations. I upgraded this past weekend and haven't had any problems but I also haven't opened up every app and setting to look for everything that has changed. YMMV

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markeh:
Hi there,

I would like to use google navigation on my desire in a different country.

I'm not entirely sure how GPS and navigation works really, can I:

Set the route before my journey, then put the phone on airplane mode so I don't 'roam' and the GPS will still function and guide me?

Or does navigation require data and therefore I have to pay the ridiculous data roaming rates to get directions?

Advice would be greatly appreciated

thanks :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qrees:
In order to use google maps you need constant data connection. If you turn on airplane mode mas won't work. If you don't want to pay for roaming data transfer you should search for other navigation map that stores maps on the device. Free ones are AndNav2, TrekBuddy and maybe some more.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al89nut:
I think is wrong, sort of. When you get a route it is cached, you don't need a constant data connection.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markeh:
thanks, I'll try the cache thing with other maps as backup :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] momentarylapseofreason:
While I know that Apple has all of their information locked up tighter than Fort Knox, I was wondering if it would be feasible to create an application to "act like" an Ipod with other hardware. IE my head unit in my car that works wonderfully with Ipod but cannot even "see" my Android phones.

If that's not possible at all, is there a way to get my head unit to see my N1 as an actual jump drive (which is supported by the unit)?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stshannon:
I hope I don't get beat up over this, but... "Head Unit"? I can assume you mean a Bluetooth stereo headset possibly?

My Kensington Bluetooth Stereo headset works fine with my nexus... But again, not sure if this is what you are referring to.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] cxdist:
I think maybe he is referring to an audio in port that recognizes ipods, but not his nexus one maybe?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ttereve:
Im sure by head unit he means his car's stereo. and If you can get the nexus into USB drive mode your stereo should recognize it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] momentarylapseofreason:
I am referring to a USB connection to my "car stereo". Not using Bluetooth.

When I am connected to my g/f's iPod, it works so seamlessly it's insane. Shows album art, all things are controlled directly from the head unit ....

I guess looking for an interface to communicate between the head unit and the N1. Would presume it's possible since the interface protocol is in the wild for devs. I just personally don't know a darned thing about it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] momentarylapseofreason:
It doesn't... Not on mine or 3 other USB equipped head units I have tried it on.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kjwalker:
What head unit do you have, and how do you like it? (Offtopic, yes, but I'm looking for a new, good head unit for my car that has great iPod functionality. )
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] momentarylapseofreason:
Well I have a double din and not sure what you require. I am running the Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD. It really has come a long way with integration. Just wish others would realize there is much more out there than Mac-n-Crap.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jtz100:
try and mount the phones sd card when it is plugd in to the Head Unit

and use bplayer or meridian as music app Works for me
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] neok44:
The problem isn't the phone, it's the unit.

I have a Pioneer as well (http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-Premi..._6?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1274031647&sr=1-6)

And it's the same ****. Won't recognize my Zune at all through the USB, and it sometimes recognizes the android phone when it's set to USB, but then it grabs every audio file in the phone, which is a bunch of crap i don't want.

But anyway, It's because Pioneer only made it support/look for apple devices. So anything else it just doesn't recognize. On mine the only thing that works perfectly is a USB flash drive. i have an 8GB unit pluged in with all my music and it works perfectly. but try anything else and it rarely works.

And unfortunately, just like you said, you'd need to make the phone look like an ipod and add all that software in, which just isn't possible.

So basically, your gonna have to get it to work by mounting the USB, or using another media player such as the ones jtz100 mentioned.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pentace:
Actually it used to work fine when android used 1.1 after they switched the way the usb connectivity worked it doesn't work well at all

get a usb mounting app and try
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] momentarylapseofreason:
A USB mounting app? As in the auto mount?

Going to test out Meridian in a few but I would love to see someone emulate the iPod interface so that our phones will work with any and all "Crapple" devices.

Hey is there anyway to get red eye out of photos after you take a pic? and is there a way to have the date on there if you want like a digital camera? thnx
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stshannon:
Redeye can be taken care of with many apps in the market, like PicSay Pro.

You can also use camera apps like CameraZoom, or FX Camera, i think those both have red eye filters, and possibly date insertion not sure.

As far as using ONLY the default camera no, neither of those options are available.

[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I think maybe you two are talking about different things here:

zellbz, you want to edit the ID3 tags on the mp3's, so the correct info shows for album, artist, etc, right? If so, then THIS is the only one I've found. It's a playlist maker, but it also has the ability to edit ID3 v1.1 tags, can't do v2 yet.

jayvo, it sounds like you want to trim MP3's so you can use them that way, yes? If so you can try the attached cab...I know it works on the TP2 and many other recent HTC winmo phones, you're welcome to give it a try on your HD2
[HD2 General] zellbz:
yes i want to change the id3, if you where trying to post a link it didn'twork so can you do it again or tell me the name of the .cab.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
OOPS! Ok, yeah, that's the sign it's time for bed :o

And after all it would be extremely helpful to have some more details about the firmware you are running on your X1 - are you still on factory default or are you already using a customized ROM? Without these basics we won't be able to help you at all.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thetacowarrior:
Hello all, I'm a total noob here, sorry for that. I'm about to buy a used G1 off a friend, and all I want to do is make calls, text message, and use the internet over wi-fi. I don't have a data plan and don't care to get one, I spend 99% of my time in range of a wi-fi network that I have access to, but I want to know, what exactly do I have to do to make it work? Or can I just take the sim out of my working t-mobile phone and put it in?

As its a used phone it is already activated, I understand that can cause issues with no data plan, but is there anything else I will need to do?

I would be comfortable rooting it if needed as I may be new to android but know a little about computers (windows and linux).

Also, after I get it working, and this is my main concern, is there any way I can be charged for internet access? Meaning if I hit the internet button on accident or something and I'm not on a wi-fi network, will I incur data charges? I don't have a data plan because I don't want to pay for it, so additional charges would kinda completely nullify the whole reason I'm doing this.

Thanks everybody.
