Call att. I have never had a problem with them telling me the correct way to reset the phone for free and get the pulk code. I have read other posts that if you've had the phone for six months they will tell you the unlock code.
[HD2 General] CamelKnight:
Hi all,

Before I post my question for help I would like to say I sincerely appreciate any help I can get :)

I've read the forums but can't find the answer to my problem so I hope you guys can help me out.

A few hours ago I installed dutty's task manager but it worked a bit too well. After a reboot Sense did not start.

I still have the Start Menu, the Phone and Contacts buttons and when I go to \Windows and click "Manilla", Sense is back when I close Explorer.

However, when I reboot my device, Sense is again not started and I have to move to \Windows etc again to get it running.

What I've tried:

- Soft reboot, several times

- Hard reboot (removing battery)

- copying the 'Manilla' file to \Windows\Startup

but that all doesn't seem to work. There's also a 'Manilla'-shortcut but when i click it, it does nothing.

How can I get Sense to run from the get go when I restart my device again?
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Have you uninstalled dutty's task manager?
[HD2 General] CamelKnight:
Yes I did, that did not help the situation however. I still only get a nice background without Sense and Sense still only starts when I click the 'Manilla' file. Not when I reboot my HD2.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Settings->Personal->Today->Items->tick HTC Sense?
[HD2 General] CamelKnight:
You Sir, are awesome!

That did the trick :) Never thought it would've been something as simple as that :)

I will contruct a shrine for you, dear sir! May your days be blessed and all that yabbadabbabullsh*t :)

is there a way that our hd2's can use the live wallpapers that are on the nexus one; specifically the one with the colored squares? or is that an android only thing?
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
Hope this is ok being posted here jus tryna get this thread out to get help with my guide on (THEMING ) a rom. i figured it was cool to because the rom i am using to customize in my guide is a cm 507 test 5 rom and devs traffic through all day long world wide.so forgive the mistake if misplaced.

hi names b6gsix and i created a document to be used as a guide or a list of files used to customize a rom. Document Page. By customize i mean only to change the look of a rom to your desire ( THEME ). i recently was told about the " how to create your own custom android rom video " and i watched it installed virtual box, installed kitchen, edited rom,signed and flashed ( NOTE TO NOOBS THAT VIDEO DOESNT SHOW HOW TO MAKE AN ACTUAL ROM ). My thing was i wanted to do more to the rom, i wanted to add my own default wallpaper and a different app drawer tab and launcher and i wanted to add the black notification bar to my rom and add desired custom icons. But the kitchen in virtual boxes ubuntu wasnt cutting it. it only allowed very basic/limited options as far as customizing a rom.

so i began a search to learn what i needed. then a couple days ago i pm'd a couple a members here on xda and asked how do i do this and i obtained some pretty good information on how to do these things ( my rom came out f'd up still cause i got to adding all types of stuff to it lol ). but the answers i got along with my special-ed rom mishap (which did flash but was jus so all over the place looking) inspired me to find out more about how to fully theme a rom.

Most forums or threads i came across were piled up with info on top of info so much that it scared me from even tryna learn what to do. so believe me when i say i plan to make this a [GUIDE FOR NOOBS LIKE ME] lol. ( BY USING SEARCH TYPE" HOW TO USE METAMORPH " FOR A EXCELLENT GUIDE ON THAT METHOD ) and goto youtube and search for emogamer's how to use metamorph video.

Anyways i talked enough i think i hope all devs/mod's/ppl of knowledge contribute to the next generation of android devs or themers at least lol.

:cool::o:):D
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
So, you want to make a community rom? The title says "How to create a fully custom rom" but I don't see any guide here just something about wanting to make one. Why make a guide if you can't even cook a rom yourself?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Sounds like hes talking about theming, "change launcher" and all that other stuff.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
well i appologize if not using the correct terms but im looking to take the cm5 rom and add my touches to it ( ex: wallpaper icons launcher font colors ) make it my cm5 rom.

and my purpose for posting it was so that members with experience and knowledge could help the new comers to g1 developement learn how to theme or customize there rom.

also i had watch a video on theunlockr com and it was suppose to show me how to create my custom rom in ubuntus android kitchen. but it was so so so limited as far as functionality and options. so i set to find out how to actually change the look. cause i like darkstars notification bar with the gray icon color and battery and his black pop up box outline with the text box white background u kno jus rndom parts from different roms i flash on the regular.

i think thats why i flash roms is because of the special feature that one has or a certain look of a certain part u kno lol

please help pleaseeeee help thanks
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
That's why i said theme, there are guides there(hard to find) for how to theme

[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
i read that post prior to creating this thread. it doesnt quite tell me exactly what i wanna know as far what i wanna do to my rom. if i read incorrectly please assist me in the proper way to use metamorph pro/ninja morph app please

but thanks for the help bro but if you know any of the foloowing please post your answer in the document link please. or at least check it out for me and something to the wallpaper post. that a true post. but i would like to know how to add more than one default_wallpaper.jpg
[G1 Android Development] DirectMatrix:
I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night, does that mean that I can create a "guide" too?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
You can only have 1 def wallpaper, you can't have 2 def launchers, one would be secondary launcher. You can put pics on your sd in a folder called pictures or wallpapers too.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
i posted the rom that i somewhat customized please check it out and tell where i f'd up at anyone
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
lol i dnt seem to be takin to serious. i jus want to create a guide to teach noobs like me how to customize or theme a rom they jus downloaded and are about to flash.

please check out my document link in the first post
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
right right. ok i thought it was like the old cm 4.2.15.1 roms where it had like 10 wallpapers included in the rom.

i never was able to learn how to add a custom launcher like the adw launcher without flashing the zip. can u assist me on this
[G1 Android Development] r0man:
Stick the launcher.apk in /system/app
[G1 Android Development] DirectMatrix:
LOL, thanks for taking my comment in stride. What I was really getting at is maybe you just need to edit the title a little to reflect what you are really trying to do.
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Look, dude the reason why some people are bashing you is because you're making a guide when you, yourself, do not know how to make a cooked rom yourself. You even said it yourself. This should go in Q&A as this is just a re-worded question disguised as an guide IMO.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
ohh lol i kno how do i edit the tittle ?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
All roms have a bunch of walls, but the launcher has a smaller mem footprint when there are no inc walls.You would need to rebuild your own launcher based on cyan's.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
i kno i jud dnt know how to re edit the tittle
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
ok thanks adding all info to document. check it out in about 30 mins to see if i posted it correctly. thanks bro.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
just added some more info to my document guide thanks to g1junky.

added: add blackbar notification.
[G1 Android Development] bmfc187:
Dude, no offense intended, but please stop calling it a "ROM". CYANOGEN makes ROM's. what you are trying to make is a THEME, or a THEMED ROM, but if all you are changing is the visual stuff like colors and fonts, then you're making a THEME, not a ROM. you technically are not making a ROM, ergo the title of your thread should be something like "How to theme a ROM" or "b6g2ix's theming guide for noobs" or something, which you can edit the title by going and clicking the "Edit" button in your OP, then change your title and save it.

anyways, the point is there are a few different types of "Dev's" on here, there are some people who are CODERS, like Cyanogen, who write code and include it into ROM's to make android WORK BETTER, and then there are THEME DEV'S, who dont really mess with much code at all, instead they design graphics and color schemes to make android LOOK BETTER.

basically, if you arent writing or changing a bunch of code and adding features, then you are really just theming someone elses ROM, not making your own. the reason i say this is not to be rude but to point out that after you have made whatever changes you wish to make, it will still be the same CM5 ROM you started with, itll just look a bit different.

its like if i go get a haircut, im still the same old dude, i just look a bit different. im not a different person just because i cut my hair, hell even if i go have my name legally changed, im still the same dude, just with a different name.

just please stop calling it a ROM, as this could not only mislead YOU, but others as well, who, coming here seeking help and/or information, would surely see your post and trust that you know what you are talking about.

hope what im saying is understandable, im not trying to be a jerk just trying to clear things up...

[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I flashed your rom, it failed and now I'm stuck at the g1 screen

Help!!
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:

wipe data>flash death spl>wipe>flash cm507 t5>(flash google add on if neccessary ).>and flash hotfix if u want im not sure if its still needed. gotta check on that. but aye bro i do my work and research but i be having hard times finding info throught these threads so if you can please take a look at my documents page and contribute to it so i can create and post this guide for noobs please. if its not to much time.

[G1 Android Development] r0man:
It should be /system/app/market.apk/res/drawable/icon.png
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
theres no market.apk in the system>app folder
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
That's because the app is called vending not market.apk....
[G1 Android Development] :
Forks don't need to know how to theme. ;)

Quit trying to bang on the net.

You want to learn to theme.... Really learn?

Download a theme, bust it down and find out what goes where. Easier would be a metamorph as the metamorph file shows where each theme file is going and what file it is modifying. Learn from that, it's probably easier.

Lol @Firerat.
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:

Hi,

i have been using HTC phones with WM for a few years now, with Kaiser and now Rodhium.

I have gotten use to many important features like hardware keyboard, cut and paste, tweaking and flashing often.

But now i feel WM is being left appart in the mobile world, all the big companies now make iPhone and Android Apps, but very often, we WM users are left appart.

And i must agree that most WM apps or those found on WM Market are really bad quality when i see what is done on iPhone or Android (great finger friendly interface and smoothness).

And now that WM7 is coming, i see even less chance for those big companies to make WM apps, or only WM7 apps, which wont work on our WM6.5 devices.

So i am thinking of switching to Android (or even iPhone 4!!! shame on me)

I have tried an Android device (HTC Magic) during one week, but frankly, i wasnt very excited about it :

small screen

no hardware keyboard

not even Swype virtual keyboard(that would compensate the lack of hardware kb to my taste)

and most of all : NO COPY PASTE IN GMAIL !!!

I think that last point was the biggest turn off for me.

But this was 1 year ago, and with Android Froyo coming, i m thinking maybe i should try again and give it a chance?

And is it mature enough now? WM has been mature for a while, but its now time for retirement (i will think of WM7 maybe in a few years, once they got over their iphone 1.0 phase ;) )

And with iphone 4.0 coming, i m also thinking of buying an iphone (they finally have copy / paste and some kind of multitasking).

Anyway, i m just asking about your experience about your jump from WM to Android.

Also :

When (if not done already), will Android have real copy / paste?

Is SWYPE available on it?
[General Topics] friend'scatdied:
I didn't like my experience with the Motorola Milestone. One of the biggest qualms I had was that the Android version of AIM just isn't very good -- it has problems staying connected, and the feature-set isn't as comprehensive as the Windows Mobile version. I'm pleased with the visuals but the desktop-like functionality simply wasn't there while the WinMo client basically had almost all of the stuff the desktop could do in a mobile package. So, not ALL apps on Android are functionally better than WinMo equivalents (if they exist). Though yes, they are generally much prettier, and usually smoother unless you have a very powerful device.

Media playback on the Milestone was also awful -- besides the poor music player interface, the poppy and crackling output was terrible.

I couldn't figure out how to get copy and paste in general to work in an easy way, but it is there (I was running 2.1). Definitely not as intuitive as the iPhone though, but not that far behind WinMo in this regard.

However Android is much more refined, fluid, smooth, and much less buggy and slow than WinMo. It's also prettier, down to the deepest submenus.

Also in Android's defense the skipping audio output was probably a Milestone-specific problem and not for all Android devices. Additionally my Milestone would inexplicably soft-reset on its own at least once a day -- unacceptable for any device. So needless to say my experience overall was pretty sour, probably mostly due to the Milestone.

Swype was available as a beta; I'm sure you can shoehorn it onto your device of choice somehow.

Since the Milestone is the only decent option you have with a hardware keyboard, I'd pass on Android. If you can deal with Swype, the global variant of the HTC EVO should be very promising, and the large 4.3" screen should work wonderfully with Swype. Failing that, the screens of the Nexus One and Milestone did feel a little small-ish to me. The Desire also gets high marks and is compatible with Swype; it has the same core hardware configuration of the EVO (Snapdragon + 576MB RAM) but with a smaller screen.

EDIT: You may also want to look into the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S Pro (rumored version of Galaxy S with hardware keyboard). But it's a Samsung..

Since a lot of people use WP7 style...

O==||>>>>>>>>

I know that another similar thread is already opened, but this has a "WP7" style ( I love this one)... hope you don't mind my doing... and for those who do, SRY!! :D

Tips:

-To change the icons I used "JWMD Icon Changer" THANKS to Nullstring: here

-For icons, THANKS to younxta: here

-Or can copy those modified by me (wich are white and without circle:D..in my opinion are more appropriate to WP7 themes:) )

If you need other icons attach them here and I'll see what can I do

Waiting for feedback:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] julian2596:
how u get this to work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nichitandrei:

just install .cab in your device and restart it...it should work after...

If it doesn't, try to install StartMenu_4.cab from here and after that install my cab (I had this installed before starting to develop my own cab :D and maby that's the problem:D)

Im trying to build a ROM from the AOSP source(just for a learning experience). I followed the guide on the AOSP website up to downloading the source. I got the source downloaded when i found ctso's guide.

It had all the info on getting the HTC binaries and junk, so i followed that and extracted all the stuff.

The guide by ctso says that i need to source a vendor tree, something the AOSP website doesnt mention at all.

$ source build/envsetup.sh

$ lunch cyanogen_dream_us-eng

If i just want to make a ROM for the G1 what should i do? Should i just skip this part and do:

$ cd ~/mydroid

$ make

or do i need to source a vendor tree? if so how would i do this, because the specified command above only seems to be for the people who used the cyanogen repository?
