[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Ok, I've been thinking about a veritable carputer for years and all this development in tablet PC's has me interested. In particular I've been keeping an eye out for a ~5" tablet with GPS, bluetooth, and support for Verizon EV-DO. I want to directly wire it to a 5V connection without the Li-ion battery (140F parked car) and rig up a mounting solution that enables me to store the bugger in the 5.25" stereo DIN when not in use, and pop out and up when in use. I've always hated the idea of visible screens in parked cars because it's worse than a "Steal Me sticker" such as a Kicker, Infinity, or Kenwood sticker, so the idea of a tablet that's as wide as a CD player is quite nifty to me. Now, the big kicker for this is I need it to run Garmin Mobile XT which isn't supported by Android, and the only device that fits the bill that's scheduled for relatively soon release is the Dell Streak, and it runs on Android. I also want to use it to stream FLAC's from my 70lb desktop at home via Verizon's enormous EV-DO network to the car, rather than having to keep a hard disk in the car/subject it to egg-cooking temperatures.

Do y'all think it'd be possible to get WinMo running on such a device? If not, are there any Android navigation softwares that DO NOT require a data connection to obtain map data; I kick it and work in enough middle o' nowhere spots without a 3G connection, and those are the places I need GPS the most. I really like Garmin Mobile XT because it occupies a bit over 1GB of maps for the contigious 48 + Canada on my microSD.

Any suggestions would be epicly appreciated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AMoosa:
You should use copilot live. It's as good if not better than garmin. And cheap.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DeathmonkeyGTX:
CoPilot is useless in rural North America.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rpmccormick:
I already have a CarPC running Windows 7. I would kill to have Google Navigation running on it (through an android emulator or something, but with working GPS). Is this possible with the dev kit alone, or do they block the Maps.apk and use of a USB GPS.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trinybwoy:
from personal experience (i have a car-pc, and the verizon mifi), if you really love music, lol , i'd stay away from streaming from your home.

your idea was intially my intention, wen i got into the carpc project. (stream form my server's at home)

i'd recommend storing the content locally. say a 32gb sd card?

Streaming from last.fm or slacker radio works very well.

Is those on my nexus when the pc decides to act up and not start..

Sometimes my phone dies when a call or a message is coming, and when I reset the phone I cannot find out who called me or what the message is. What can I do about it?:(
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Rataplan:
Did you flash the original rom ?

Regards,
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] sxrsxrsx:
I did that before, by the way my phone's memory isn't drained, at least 30percent is left. Thank you for any further help.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Rataplan:
Do you have the same problems with the original rom

Greetz,
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] sxrsxrsx:
I didn't use it for a long time, but during the time I used it never happened.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Rataplan:
Just flash your original rom, I think your phone will work a lot better, if you flashed your device vere often with cooked rom's, the phone will not react the way it should.

Just a small tip, if you flash your phone 6 or 7 times with a cooked version, just go back to your original rom and after you flashed the original you can flash 6 or 7 cooked versions again.

It is better to flash from sd-card.

Greetz,

UPDATE

I just had a word with one of their customer respresenative named Mandy, she sounded very pleasant and nice. After going through the whole dealing process she insisted that the minimum order to modify an item is 500 units. So if any of the manufacturers or businessman can order 500 HD2 then it might be possible that we can have a custom built Qwerty Keypads for our HD2.

By the way she also assured that the item is bieng checked by one of the quality checking teams and it will be available on the website pretty soon. So enjoy the beautiful keyboard since then.

The Big Deal

Now while going through the product description i noticed quite interesting details:

It is almost simlar to the length / breadth height with our hd2.

HTC HD2 :120.5mm x 67mm x 11mm KEYBOARD:115mm x 60mm x 6 mm

What More !!

As specified on the website, they also have custom made keypads available if the product is bought on lots or wholesale of 25 and above number.

Now this is interesting as i am going to contact them and ask them strictly to this option whether they can make custom keypads with a hinge or a hook for an hd2, i would happily place an order of 25+ keyboards.

Dont you all think this would be a great addon for our HD2. If anyone interested please add your comments here, and lets make this idea into reality.

Imagine HD2 with a Qwerty Keypad .. This sounds to good to be true.

Price/Cost

And my last surprise to you, this is worth only only only USD 20

For more details you can go directly to the production description website : http://www.chinavasion.com/product_i...r-smartphones/

Hey, I bought that keyboard, but I'm having a hard time trying to install it... I'm about to give up so if someone can help, would apreciate.

This is a great gadget, anyway I ordered one a couple weeks ago but I didn't receive it.

Hope this helps

Here the same keyboard a bit higher but at least we have buyers protection of the site.

ETA arrival time to America 15 to 35 days...

I ordered one time from HK and took almost 2.5 months to arrive, they sent it via snail mail:D
[General Accessories] r3s-rt:
55 bucks? Not too bad, especially with what orb said, buyers protection.

hi i have a htc hs2 for t-mobile unlocked, i live in Canada and am using the rogers network , i cant seem to get my data connection to work on the phone. it asks me to login and put in additional info, would i be able to install a rom for the other hd2 leo section so it doent have t-mobile stuff on it. i basically want my data top work and it doesnt recongnize my current data connection, i can make calls just no internet except wifi. any help would be great. thanks
[HD2 General] speoples20:
Sure you could flash a Leo rom but you will most likely brick your phone. You need to change the settings from the T-mobile internet settings to Rogers internet settings.

Hey guys, a couple of days ago I flashed my GF's MT3G with update-cm-4.2.x-signed. Skip forward a few days, nothing really happened installed a few basic apps from the market. Now when it turns on it hangs at the green mt3g screen indefinitely. I can still get in the recovery console and I have tried to wipe and re flash the rom and it still does the same thing.. does anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? If there is other information that is needed, please let me know.

Thanks

The 2.13 ROM has the best version of Swype ever made to date. I'd suggest using it, as it was made for the TMOUS ROM anyway, and it works better and looks better.

here you go guys.. made specifically for hd2 with landscape support..

[HD2 General] rexboy:
Newer version

3.9.10.10.5032 by Lord Yuz was a great release as it resolved the pin code issue for many however it still had flaws such as long key pressing for alternate character.

Mid March LordYuz released the newest Swype (version 3.19.20.20.6343) for the HTC and its much better. Still same to look at however the long key press actually does work EVERY time, it has vibration and sound for keytapping, double tapping for editing words now work in addition you can still use the swype key, and as mentioned it doesnt change your device ID having to make many hard reset their phone.

You can get this version here http://rapidshare.com/files/387678888/Swype.v3.9.20.20.6343-LordYuz.CAB.

Pls I would like if wich is the righ version for my original hd2 (manila 2.5.19211619.0 rom 1.66.408.1 it), if it is multilingual (italian) and, in the end, if there're some problems.

[HD2 General] JamesRC:
Does anyone else find 3.19 much slower than 2.0 though? Especially with a contact with lots of messages, words take a lot longer to appear!

Hi,

Thanks for this. Is there a way to set it to french with affrench keyboard layout?

That would be nice. I tried tapping the SYM key but the only language showing up is EN.

[HD2 General] the_rascal:
Multiple versions of Swype?

Can anyone tell me if they have managed to have more than one release of Swype on their phone?

I am currently trying to evaluate two different versions but attempting to install the second one is not possible as I am being prompted to remove the existing Swype program before I can install the second one.
[HD2 General] gadaga:
well it's mentioned in the help file. use SYM key and select language... But when I do this the only choice it gives me is english. Are no other languages implemented? If so is there a way to add them ? And if so how can this be done? Using a supplementary cab file? Where can I get such cab file?
[HD2 General] Tanquen:
As the number of messages goes up the slow mine gets. I only have about 300 text and now some threads take up to 15 seconds before I can see the text I've typed. The keys react but nothing shows, then all at once. Very disappointing as my very old HTC Cruise had thousands of text and did not do this. I had also hope the new T-Mobile ROM would help but I've still got the issue.
[HD2 General] Smith2001:
I've had this error on every ROM I've ever tried with Sense messaging. I have however only got this error with swype. For quite a while with the standard keyboard it works straight away and loads the messages in the background. still does the gay "heres your last message" and stops you typing your current one.
[HD2 General] JamesRC:
I have the lag with both the HTC keyboard and swype, but for 3.19 its the same as 3.9, and much worse than 2.0!
[HD2 General] rexboy:
Yeah the lag seems more pronounced with Swype vs SlideIT or other keyboards but its really more to do with the HTC messaging client. Many cookers of their roms dont like to include this as HTC havent got it right yet.

As others have mentioned, older HTC models without this with thousands of sms's have no probs so its a common prob on many forums with no solution yet that i have seen.

I need urgent Help, I installed Fixed-Swype-HTCBlackBird-3.9.10.10.5032.CAB and reset the phone and now I cannot enter the passcode to unlock my phone, it says it is incorrect!

Any suggestions, short of a hard reset?

[HD2 General] farangdang:
Tarkboffin, I had the same issue this week. Reviewed many threads looking for solutions yesterday, but all I found was that if you are required to have a pin code due to corporate email account, you will need to reflash your phone with factory or other ROM. I see you posted this in May. Did you ever find any better solution? I saw a post (page 1 or 2 of this thread) from last year about a 3.19 version of Swype that didn't alter the phone ID, so would not reset your PIN. I'm not sure what phone ID has to do with PIN, but the 3.19 Swype might be the answer. I didn't find this until today, but if I do have to install again I will go with the 3.19 version of swype.
[HD2 General] farangdang:
Thanks for the link to 3.19. I have mastered the art of searching in XDA forums, but sadly have not mastered the art of finding, so links help a lot.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ultramag69:
Now you know the problem.....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] da9th_one:
i ran 6.5 stock for about a week...too buggy and slow for me...i went back to 6.1 stock...smooth sailing for me...unless the tp2 can be overclocked, i'd don't the stock 6.5 is very palatable...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pandaxownage:
so youre saying i should flash a rom so it wouldnt have that problem? or should i just upgrade to a HD2?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] marduk79:
while I highly reccomend that you flash a rom since the benefits are many, if you do not feel comfortable doing so just yet, you can do a hars reset and see if that fixes your problem. just remenber to back up your programs 1st. best of luck.

Can we get a HTC Sense apps package to use with this ROM as a flashable zip ??

I like the HTC's dialer, which shows up contacts as you type number. And also the HTC People app is better than AOSP contacts. Any way I can use these here ?

Also GPS isnt working as yet. I mean, map doesnt show my location accurately :confused:

Do we need an EXT4 with this ROM ? I want to change my SD card, nd the other card i guess has EXt3, so do i go abt flashing the ROM again, with new recovery, new EXT 4 partition and all ? plz guide
[Hero CDMA Android Development] eme82:
If I am wrong, someone correct me but HTC apps won't work with ASOP. Different framework. If you want HTC, I would go with Fresh Toast 2.1.1. It runs well also. They also include LauncherPro which can give a small...small..small taste of pure Android.

Otherwise, if you want ASOP Darch's ROM ROCKS the house!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shippbe:
I could be wrong about this, but I don't think we can use HTC Sense apps because we don't have the HTC framework(s).

Edit: Oops someone beat me to it. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nighteyes_wolf:
heh, this is kinda ironic....at first when the Hero first came out we would rave over sense and how super dope it is sticking our tongues out at vanilla users....then 2.1 starts coming and suddenly vanilla starts looking mighty tasty and we start pining for that aosp feel. As a bandaid we get some great roms like sushi or ic3 which attempt to give us a more vanilla feel over sense framework. All is well...but we still aren't satisfied. Then the .29 kernel source gets voodoo'd up by toast and gang. Now finally after many many moons we get what we've all been craving...the real McCoy Vanilla Splendor......and.....we start missing some of those elements of sense we've grown dependent of ;)

such a vicious cycle don't ya agree?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldsweat:
This rom is specifically an AOSP build, the HTC apps are popular but that's not what this rom is accomplishing. Unfortunately you would have to build that up yourself.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dphase:
There's nothing at all I miss about SenseUI. Not even remotely.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shippbe:
Same here, I feel the same way after using AOSP for awhile.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nighteyes_wolf:
I kinda miss some things like Friend Stream and a few other minor bits hehehe. I had to roll back and pull the rom off cuz of that nasty battery bug that is to be fixed soon. As soon as that comes down the pike, I'll be all over this again like Fat Albert on a cheeseburger after a mile hike
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Does anyone have a working .apk for the calendar they can post? My calendar force closes three times every time I boot the phone, and then I can never open it and I figure pushing a working file should fix it, right? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nighteyes_wolf:
Here's an idea. Try opening the update.zip in winrar etc and copy out the .apk and attempt to push it via adb. could have gotten corrupted perhaps
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldsweat:
Quick heads up, don't know if anyone still had this issue but... I had originally just flashed the GPS patch over 2.6 and it still did not work.

However I wiped completely again, reflashed 2.6-patched and googlebits and the GPS is up and working :)

confirmed only on GMaps and Weatherbug btw...
