ahh got you now

but everyone seems really happy with 2.2 features and it has everything i had on the HD2.

like it was said above its just a personal preference thing.
[HD2 General] ALEXRUSS55:
Keep your HTC HD 2 android is on the way, either by dual boot, or being that of htc evo coming out, and actual rom.

The HTC HD 2 is the most powerfull device out there, and you can do whatever you want with it, no restrictions nothing, you can have a vast majority of operating systems.

Most can be ported thanks to the lovely people here at XDA.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
android 2.2 is the begining for the android to be mature ,but after 3 monthes , google announces the android 3.0 will be avaliable in q4 ,may be then it will be a better os than windows , with more options ,and specifications
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
An android port to the HD2 is not going to be like an android phone that came with android. It will be a long time before the port is as functional as an android phone. You're probably not going to want to use the android port full time as it will be a while before it uses all the hardware properly like bluetooth, wifi, camera, sound, etc. There could also be heating issues, battery issues, stabilty issues, etc. People seem to think that the evo rom will easily be ported over and it will be fully functional. It doesn't work like that. The touch pro's android port has been developed for over a year and it still isn't nearly as functional as a full android phone.

Don't get me wrong... I can't wait to be able to boot into android on my HD2, but I expect it to be over a year from now until it will be good enough to want to use full time instead of WinMo 6.5. HD2 is a WinMo phone, and thats the only os that it will run well for probably at least the next 6months to year. It may never run another os good enough to use full-time.

Do what your heat tells you. Just playing. Honestly, its all about what you need your phone to deliver for you.

My phone completes what I want and makes me happy. I sometimes feel the lack of apps but it is no big deal.

All I really use on a daily basis are Stocks, weather, music player, youtube app and web browser. You will obviously find more apps for android.

Personally, I dont need all those apps you find for android like optical illusions, weird sounds and bla bla bla. Sure I need an app like NBA Game Time similar to that of android but nothing that I desperately need.

I just hop on espn with skyfire or Opera 10 Mobile and Im good.

Android lacks quality games just like Windows Mobile but FPSEce helps a little my HD2.

My sisters own a Motorola Cliq and a Droid and nothing to major for me to want Android. Maybe If the developers from this site get a working android port I will be HAPPY.

Other than that, this phone fulfills my needs.

AGAIN, DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS.....LOL.

Don't allow others make your decision.

I bought my Misses an Iphone for christmas. The other day she was complaining it was running slow. I asked her when the last time she turned it off. " Turned it off" she said " i`ve never turned it off " just plugs it in at night to charge it up....Now thats a stable operating system.......

I love my HD2 by the way......
[HD2 General] Sheraz150:
I have to restart my HD2 at least once a day.
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
I've not rebooted my HD2 for at least 3 weeks, and I think that was due to a tweak in BsBtweaks needing a restart to take effect.

I can put you in touch with several people who have had iphones that lock up and become unresponsive more than once a week if you want?

Complexity will always have instability.
[HD2 General] BLAST3RR:
HD2 is much more sexy than ANY other phone on the market around imo..

Besides, they are working on Android for the HD2.. And making some good progress lately..

Nothing better than a phone that could eventually even dualboot :D.

If you want games and apps to play about with/be cool with around your mates, get an iPhone or another type that most 'mainstream' users have.

[Android Apps and Games] bydox:
Hi :)

First, I'm sorry if I'm not on the right section of the forum, I guessed it was the best to post in.

Also, my apologizes if my english is not always good ;)

So, I'm working on an Android apps projet, that have specific needs.

Succinctly, I need to give to the editors the possibility to apply a discount on one of their applications, for a fixed-time.

For example, I would like the editor can apply a discount from May, 24th - 00h to May, 25th - 00h. Of course, it's possible to manually modify prices.

But, for pratical reasons, I would like to automate this operation.

As far as I know, it's impossible on the official Android Market.

But I now Apple released a "app manager" for the Appstore, that allows editors to ... manage (:D) their apps, and among all possibilities included in this manager, there is the functionnality I'm looking for : automated price variations.

So, I would like to know if you know a way to make that possible on Android Market ? Maybe through a manager similar to Apple's manager, or an alternative market that offers this functionnality ?

Thank you very much !
[Android Apps and Games] bydox:
Nobody have any kind of idea ?
[Android Apps and Games] ady:
As far as I'm aware, there is no automatic promotion as of yet.

btw this probably isn't the best forum to ask. Market is a google application. So try google forums for android developers. http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?pli=1
[Desire Themes and Apps] vanja:
Hi guys,

I am trying to remove Sense lockscreen and use the stock one instead. Deleted HtcLockScreen.apk, but now the stock one is messed up (see the screenshot). How can it be fixed? I understand WorldClock is integrated with Sense lockscreen so it wouldn't be possible to use it an alarm app but I am willing to live with that compromise.

Thanks

[Desire Themes and Apps] vanja:
Thanks. It doesn't work for MCR r2 though.
[Desire Themes and Apps] 7pellc:
You won't get it working on MCR2 because its odexed.

Move onto MCR3 and it should work... I posted an update zip in the other topic about the lockscreen. This works fine on MCR3

In the 6.5 rom i'm using I can't get to the "Power Mode" tab on the wifi settings. This used to help me a lot because i could boost the signal selecting "Best Performance" so i could leech from an unsecured wifi near my house. Is there any way to activate this? by regedit or software.

Thanks in advance.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndSch:
Hello,

I rooted my phone this week. T-Mobile in my country never provided an update for my T-Mobile G2. So my phone still runs on build 1.76.110.6.

I'm consider to install a custom ROM, because this firmware is really slow :-(

But If I will wait a few weeks and T-Mobile provides the 2.1 update this time, will I still have root access after the OTA update? Or will I lose the root access?

Are there any good and stable, full hardware supported custom ROMs with Android 2.1?

Or what's the best custom ROM at the moment for the HTC Hero/T-Mobile G2?

Bernd
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
1. There is an update for T-mobile - have you ever checked the HTC support page? It is still v1.5 but its an update... (will remove root)

2. 2.1 is unlikely to be released by t-mobile in the next couple of weeks, you're probably be looking at a month or so and I also don't think OTA updates are supported on your current build. Also you will NOT have root and probably won't be able to easily downgrade again to gain root access.

3. There are lots of custom roms try reading the hundreds of other posts asking which 2.1 update to use. They are all about the same stability wise and realistically speed wise too, though some vary to a very minor degree.

How exactly did you get root in the first place? Or are you talking about a recovery image installed?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndSch:
1) I couldn't download the official update from the HTC website, because you have to provide your serial number. And with my number I'm not allowed to download the update. Because I own an T-Mobile G2 instead of the "real" HTC Hero

2) If I install the latest update from T-Mobile/HTC I lose my root access and it could be hard to get it back again :-( That's bad

To get root on my phone I followed this tutorial:

phandroid.com/2009/08/04/how-to-gain-root-access-on-your-htc-hero/

(there are other similar tutorials out there)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
Have you contacted them about this? The G2 is just a brand name, they are exactly the same phones as the Hero's and T-mobile doesn't actually sell any "Hero" phones just the G2. Therefore, that update is definitely for you.

Alternatively you could install the update using the exe found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=559622

Once again bear in mind that this wipes your data and will remove root and you may have a hard time getting it back.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndSch:
Yes I contacted HTC and the answer was that I had to contact T-Mobile in my country. They told me that I lose the warranty if I install a update from the internet, because THEY didn't provide it.

But in other countries (e.g: Germany) T-Mobile provides this update.

So what should I do now? What's the best solution? Install an official HTC update and lose root access or install on of the custom ROMs out there?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akuma24:
My friend, welcome to the dark side:

2.1 ROM, super duper quick, backup your apps via titanium back, then restore once you have flashed the new ROM. Maybe a good idea to backup messages etc if you want them
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndSch:
Should I install Nandroid before flashing?

At the moment I "only" have root access and not installed any additional boot loader or other software/firmware.

Would like to try your suggested ROM (Cronos Droid Version 1.3). Do I have to wipe my sd card to install this ROM?

And do you run the Non Overclocked or the Overclocked version?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BinaryFabric:
I'm using a G1 with cyan's 4.2.15.1.

For some reason some of the buttons stopped working:

*Call and Menu buttons don't work

*Trackball wont scroll

And when the trackball is pressed it causes the phone to power off.

I did a search but i couldn't find anything.

Anything anyone could help with? Has this happened to anyone before?

Tried reflashing and it didn't work, next step is a full wipe to see that helps.

Might be a hardware issue, but I have my fingers crossed.
[Android Software Development] Martin79a:
How do I make 5-second pause between each visibility / invisibility? Look at my examplecode:

leftHand.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
//5-second break
leftLongArm.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
//5-second break
leftFoot.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

I have tested:

SystemClock.sleep(5000);

But it affects the entire program for 5 seconds. Not just visibility.
[Android Software Development] Brut.all:
Read about threads :-)
[Android Software Development] Martin79a:
I've found Thread.sleep and tested:

public void controlBalls() {
try {
Thread.sleep(500);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {

ball1_1.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
}

}

but my picture will never be invisible

This works, of course:

public void controlBalls() {
ball1_1.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
}
[Android Software Development] Farkie:
Try this:

It will hardly ever get to the Interrupt Exception, the catch is for errors, not for general programming. It now will run the thread, then it will change to invisible. I'd do a check and switch the visibilty depending on whatever it's on. i.e. if(visiblility = visible) { visibility = invisible; } else { visibility = visible; }

Were i can locate the default wallpapers on my HTC and if anyone know whats the default size of them

[Touch HD General] dalunatic:
no one can help me?
[Touch HD General] nagging:
You're free to decide in which direcotory to put your own wallpapers, no need to put them in the default directory. I for myself have put several wallpapers in a directory on the storage card. Later, as you change your wallpaper, just go to the TouchFlo tab called "wallpaper" or "background picture" (I'm not sure since I use another language version) and navigate to this directory, then select your own wallpaper.

They can be of different sizes. Since this is not a full answer to your question, I added a container with some nice wallpapers which I found in another forum. The last one ("fantasy") is special, it has an additional frame.
[Touch HD General] dalunatic:
Thanx for reply !

i need to know the dimensions cause i like to make my own theme (Starcraft 2 )

Anyway you know how to make it animated ... or like those new "Weather Wallpaper" ?

i have an HTC HD with Maryone Rom... 6.5
[Touch HD General] nagging:
I only can tell you the dimensions of the one I use myself ("fantasy", it's included in the *.zip file I uploaded). Its dimensions are 533 x 800 pixels.

Sorry, no idea how to animate a picture, my knowledge in graphics is down to almost zero. However, searching with "how to animate a jpg" brought instant access to several solutions (software packages). Some are to be found here: http://bit.ly/cblIdu. Good luck, though!

if anybody else has some insight with previous HTC and android experience, that'd be great to hear some other opinions?!

or maybe an HTC phone with similar file system structure which was rooted?

yea, im heavily considering it. i qualify for my upgrade so for $199 and giving up a hardware keyboard for all the great hardware features this has, i think its worth it!

i hope to be able to compile a few kernels for you and everybody else :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shakuyi:
ah dont even worry about the onscreen keyboard it takes a second to get used to it. that was the reason why i picked the moment over the hero but i still found myself using swype lol. as of now im just using the htc keyboard and its pretty slick so far just have to train the dictionary.

Take the battery out, wait a few seconds and put it back.

After turning your device on:

It goes off immediatly?

-> Send to repair.

Do you have at least one minute after turning your device on?

-> Check Start/Settings/Power/Advanced

1.- touchscreen is not functioning properly???? please be more specific tell us what happend exactly to your tocuh screen.

2.- from where???? you can get the latest pkgs from the XDA developers.. using the search option like.... "latest camera QVGA"

3.- OEM Drivers??? for elfin??? you can get them dumping a stock rom this is basic from setting the kitchen i told you that your OEM drivers folder is poor dunno why.

4.- This is a good question for begginers

5.-Action button stops working??? you need to be specific cause some OLD wm6 (your dumped base rom) apps are incompatible with 6.5

6.- the rom is laghing a lot... well that is just experience

you will se when you add and delte old things will see that the rom will be better.

You know.... there is no need to make this huge thread...

cause the answers are there... you all new chefs needs to search as we did in our noobnest times ;)
