[Android Software Development] Bikram:
It has been a month that I am using Xperia X10 (which was supposed to be a multimedia phone). It might have been a month but I have been following Android for a long time. I was so sure that if not the phone then the OS is going to be really great. Well I was wrong.....

Android does have lots of apps, and lots of them are really handy. But there are some very basic stuffs that it cann't do, like playing divx or Xvid or flv files. It has been quite a while that Samsung Spica came out, it has divx player support. There are so many devs, but noboody seems to bother to copy the divx player from Spica. Most of the videos are of xvid format now days. The only option you have is to buy yxplayer, but why should I buy yxplayer when this was suposed to be built in.

There is no default file browser, you have to download that too (thank god its free). There is no battery percent indicator, unless you download it. These are pretty basic things and they should have been included with the OS.

I am slowly feeling like those winmo lovers who believes that Android is popular because of the hype created by devs. And the devs started it as they can make couple of bucks by making small apps.

Regardless of conspiracy or no conspiracy, why no xvid or divx player??? Even the devs are not working on one :(
[Android Software Development] Brut.all:
It's like Firefox vs. Opera discussion. I think if installing something is just few simple clicks, then system itself shouldn't contain nearly anything. I would be happy if it wouldn't even contain messaging app, cause I never use it and I can't delete it if I'm not a root.

So, as you see, there are many different "should have"s, not only yours.

I don't know why there are no divx/xvid player. But I personally don't mind, these formats aren't good for mobile devices, so I wouldn't use them anyway :-)

Okay heres the deal i text message alot when im driving and i use bluetooth headsets so i can hear music and i can also talk. so i there an app out there where i can speak and it can write what im saying on the phone and send it as a text message. tried google voice and dont work for me. can anyone point me to the right direction please? thanks in advance ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tony1ant:
Perhaps Voice on the Go, I use it on my HD2 and it works well

Here's the link: http://consumer.voiceonthego.com/VOGOPortal/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Phenomenon:
Youd more than likely have to pay for a service like Voice To Go for something like that. It's just that there aren't any good enough programs out right now that can do this for you. Some have better luck than others, but it's all up to you. Look up Microsoft TellMe because it does have that feature, but try it yourself and see how it works for you. Beyond that I can't really suggest anything else.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] damden:
I would like to change the city weather on my home tab.

Let me explain... On the weather tab, always the first city is the location I am now at. Only the 2nd, 3rd etc. city can be set manually. But I would like to show the weather of the 2nd city on my weather tab on the home tab (just under the time on the home tab).

Or is there a way to set the first city on the weather tab to a specific location. (not the location I am now at).

I want to do this because I've turned of the GPS, but would still like to show the weather of a specific city on my home tab (I manually update the weather now and then).

HTC Touch Pro2

WM6.5

Rom version: 1.88.40403 (67102) NLD

Sense 2.1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] unbrained:
If you tap your clock in the homescreen you will be able to choose a location that stays. My location didn't work for me so I practically had to do the same your asking to make it work. Took me some time to figure it out as well!!:p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] damden:
lol very big lol

it's that simple... I was already searching the registry......
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] damden:
while searching the registry, i found the folowwing key

HKCU/software/htc/manila/Weather.Enable CurrentLocation

when you set it to 0, the MyLocation page on the weather tab is hidden.

set it back to 1 if you want the first page / city back in the weather tab.

[Desire General] brandon1108:
I've noticed that if i start typing very fast on my desire it stuffs up - Skipping some finger presses. I then did a test - i held down one key with one finger and tried to touch another key with another finger and noticed nothing happends.

Can others please check to see if they are also having this problem.

Thanks,

Brandon

Its not a 'problem' there just isnt a multitouch keyboard. Im not sure why this is an issue since im pretty sure that apart from the essentials like shift, Ctrl etc PC keyboards arent either!
[Desire General] Psy-Blade:
Yep, its like that on all desires. The keyboard probably uses the same code as the older non multitouch HTC's
[Desire General] Psy-Blade:
I think the 'issue' is that on a physical keyboard you may begin to press the second key before you fully let go of the first. On a hardware keyboard the second key press takes precedence whereas the HTC keyboard doesn't always register the second key press and you have to press it again.
[Desire General] speedking34:
you dont use a touch keyboard the same way you use a normal keyboard. and yes, they do have 'multitouch', though i wouldnt refer to it as such.
[Desire General] brandon1108:
The problems that the keyboards slow and very unresponsive + the space bar often doesnt work and a few letters per sentence are skipped because theres no multitouch. And most of the reviews claimed "the multitouch keyboard found on the desire is great"

Oh well, i found a keyboard on the marketplace thats multitouch :D

Thanks for the quick reply guys. Good to know theres nothing wrong with my phone :D

[Desire General] gens6200:
Which keyboard is that? Thanks in advance!
[Desire General] brandon1108:
The stock keyboard.

Think theres anyway to enable multitouch in the stock keyboard?

This may have to go in the Q&A section, but i assume it would be something for the devs to look into.

Is there any way to output the GPS data over the USB or bluetooth connections? The same way we can tether the modem of the phone, Can we tether the GPS device of the phone?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
Interesting idea. I don't think I'd have much use for it now but I used to have a carPC and it would have been handy for that.

I hope someone can help you
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Postal Dude:
There is an app out that can output GPS date over an ADB link. But its experienced developer use only. I have a carPC and this is exactly why i am looking at doing this. The AGPS module in the N1 would be great to tether to a carputer
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bewA:
i'm sure this is like the 3rd time i've seen the same question asked in the space of two days!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1wayjonny:
this is a great idea to tether to a laptop which has local maps.

I am going camping and cant use my goggle GPS on my phone so this would come in handy ...

maybe next year lol..

Wish Google would let you temporarily select a state or two for local download for trips, yea that would be great!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Postal Dude:
Well after a search revealed nothing, maybe you would be so kind as to possibly contribute, rather than just point out its been discussed already. If there is more info in another thread, please send a link and at least appear to be trying to help

[Legend General] tantanx:
When I'm on handsfree during a call and trying to access the phones menus or programs, the screen first lights up after pressing pwr button, stays on for about 0,5sec, then goes black, then flickers on again, then off, then on again, and then off!

Sometimes I manage to get it to stay on by pressing on the screen repeatedly during the first 0,5sec. But usually I go through that whole procedure and have to repeat it until I manage to access the phone.

Anyone experienced the same thing? Only happens during call.
[Legend General] oleahmed:
Same thing here, I use a BT headset. It is quite annoying.. I think it is trying to shut down the screen, because of battery saving. But I want to use the phone while speaking :)
[Legend General] Exanimus:
Could have to do with the proximity sensor maybe?
[Legend General] oscar90:
Yeah it is to do with the proximity sensor. To solve this issue I try not to hover my finger over the top of the phone where the speakers are located (I think this is where the proximity sensor is placed).
[Legend General] Exanimus:
yes, it is placed to the right of the speaker.

if u look at the phone in bright sunlight you can see the sensor :)

Hi peeps, sorry a total newbie to Android here.

I thought I had successfully 'rooted' my HTC Desire last night. However, upon trying to get into Recovery I just get the Red Triangle screen.

I bought my Desire off contract (no need for Goldcard).

Any ideas?

It will do that, u need to run step2 each time u wanna get into recovery

[HD2 General] wahaj123:
I have a TMO version of HD2.

I notice there are separate forums in ROM sections for the TMO version.

Why is that? Is the TMO version different in hardware? I have flashed it to EnergyRom after HSPL, is reckon it should not be TMO any longer, or am I wrong?

Can I use the other ROMs instead of the TMO cooked ones?
[HD2 General] zelendel:
You will need to flash a rom that has a compatable radio for the T-mobile version sense the Euro version doesnt have the 1024 mb unlocked. If you flash a Euro rom to it you will have a very nice brick.

Not all ROMs are compatible with 1024LEO, including old official ROMS.

Official 1.42 and 1.66

WON'T WORK

on LEO1024, because there is no 1024 NAND memory support.

All custom ROMs which

ARE NOT BASED ON

2.08+ T-Mobile ROMs

WON'T WORK ON 1024LEO.

google.com/contacts

sorry, cannot post real links, something about new members.
[Desire General] foner78:
I access the contacts online too, don't see much need for anything else, but you could probably add/edit contacts to Outlook and use HTC Sync to grab the changes from there? I haven't tried it, so I could be wrong :o
[Desire General] Rob Pomeroy:
Use the contacts within Google Mail?
[Desire General] ze7zez:
:) It's nice that you share your discovery, but for a long, long time there is no problem with the management of contacts.

For example, MyPhoneExplorer 1.8 released 2010-10-01:

"Many people waited for this update and now its finished. MyPhoneExplorer is now able to manage Android-Phones - and not only from SonyEricsson. This Means there are many new supported models fe SonyEricsson X10, HTC Desire. Motorola Milestone, and much more."

Hi all,

Well, it's as it says in the title really, I have been installing lots of the tweaks & mods on this site, and not fully understanding how these are implemented I have been wondering if these will slow down my phone at all or if i don't have to worry.

Thanks for any feedback ^^

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] donwhann:
I think you will be fine mate.I've got loads on my phone and it runs just like new.....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] WilliamStern:
You're good. I've added plenty of mods as well, and to tell you the truth my phone performs better.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MartyLK:
Same here. And I would say they do slow down my HD2 a bit. So I removed all but the most desired apps and themes.

When I installed the DINIK Anastasia keyboard skin, I noticed a bit of a slowdown. I suppose the CPU is having to work to load and keep the skin going.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sebstermw:
i tend to install mods and tweaks to the main memory as its faster.

the internal storage isnt as quick

so if u installed the dinik keyboard, put it in main memory.

applications, games, video, music put on internal storage.

(take note that some apps only work from main memory)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wolfee:
As far as day to day use, I havent noticed any slowing.. *if there is it is so minute, who cares*..

Were I do see a slow down is on start up. It takes a bit longer to load from a soft reset. Again, I dont care about that.. Itis still 100 times faster than the blackberry.. lmao
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JAYLO420:
I had problems but it was mainly trail and error with certain cabs. The only one i noticed that really slows down once in a blue moon is s2u2
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
Has anyone done this before? Basically I want to remove reflow. I know it might not be a good idea, but I think the browser will be better for me personally.
[HD2 General] ozkaya:
if this can be done, I hope we can get rid of jumping after pinch-zooming.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
this is exactly the reason why i want to disable reflow. the jumping problem is SOO annoying and it makes opera look like its eradic or something. yuck!
[HD2 General] -Vulture-:
Yeah i would like to disable this also. Anyone with a solution? :)
[HD2 General] haam1978:
I agree with you it makes opera looks slow and so laggy

I wish if there is a way to stop it
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
rebump for a find. if anyone has the answer.
[HD2 General] erick10:
I agree with you guys, hope someone has a valid answer as a fix.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
I am still searching..

anyone?
[HD2 General] jujoo:
Try this - Go to Regedit HKLM/Software/Opera/Prefs/Adaptive Zoom/Default Zoom change 175 to 0.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
already tried it.

does not work. reflow persist. can you give it a try yourself and tell me if it worked for you? is reflow disabled?
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
still looking if anyone has a solution to disable reflow in opera 9.7
[HD2 General] jujoo:
it works well on my device! Only tap to zoom is gone... check again if you r doing it right! You can try to soft reset after you r done!
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
I disagree. Does not work. Can anyone else confirm if this works? Screen shots please?
[HD2 General] ozkaya:
it does work. I can pinch to zoom without jumping and the text is not reflowed anymore. as others said only side effect is losing double tap to zoom. What Opera build do you have?
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
well here's the thing. when you change the value to 0, all the text that can reflow, will automatically reflow to a 800px width.

Meaning, by changing the value to 0, you force it to autoflow and it stays stuck that way even if you zoom even more closer up to maybe 200px width.

So yeah. This works but completely destroys the purpose of doing it in the first play anyways.

still looking...

And I want double tap to zoom back. I prefer that over pinch to zoom.
