[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
All started with the phone randomly turning off itself. Sometimes even when I got a call. It became more often in time, so I was looking for solution. Most of the people said to send back the phone, but I didn't want to bother, and also I bought it new from Ebay. Somebody said, that the new Cyanogen mod solves the problem, so I put it on the phone. Well, the mod was okay, but the phone still turned off sometimes. I didn't really bother until one time the phone was plugged on the car charger, and I was listening music from that(battery was around 70%). It turned off again, and when I tried to turn on, I couldn't.

I removed the battery, put it back, and I could turn on the phone for like 10 seconds, and it died again, and showed red led, like the battery is low. It was still on charger, but it didn't make a difference.

I got very angry, because I assumed that the replacement battery I bought a few months ago from ebay was faulty(1700mAh), so I got home, and put in the old 1100mAh battery from my drawer. It worked fine, and I even plugged back on the car charger, listened music, used gps, etc.

I got out of the car, and took the phone with me as well, and like 30min later I hear somebody calling me. I took the phone out, but it was off. Tried to turn on, but only saw the red light flashing, no answer. I realised, that it might not be the battery then! I got home, plugged on the charger, but as I expected, no reaction. I left the battery like that, and ordered a new 2200mAh branded one from ebay, while I was waiting for that the phone just sat on my table waiting. After 2 days of idle, I plugged in the usb charger to the pc, and the g1 on the other side, and it turned on! It started to charge the battery from 0%(the battery was 100% when I took out from the drawer), so I quickly wrote a text to a guy, and left it there to charge. 15 mins later I see the phone dead again. Next day the "superbattery" arrived, I was so happy, I put it in. But: no reaction at all! Tried all button combinations as well.

So here I am now, some people said it has short-circuit, and that discharged the battery(batteries are not extended in size, i bet it would work with an other g1), and I also read it can be the motherboard.

Any ideas what could cause the problem, and how can I replace it?

Warranty conditions: the phone was new from ebay, modded with cyanogen, and should be under T-mobile warranty. It was unlocked as well, and O2 simcard was used. I never had any contact with T-mobile whatsoever.

The phone doesn't have serial number on the white patch on the back(strange), that according to HTC warranty policy makes the warranty void. IMEI number cannot be checked, because phone doesn't turn on. I'm not sure if T-mo would help me, neither HTC. Please let me know if you have ANY idea how to fix the phone, or get a replacement, or convince T-mo or HTC to fix it!

All help is appreciated about everything!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el_smurfo:
You're not getting replies, because your options are limited. If you are handy, you could buy a trashed G1 with broken screen off ebay and replace your main circuit board. Otherwise, you will need to get stock firmware on the unit and attempt to return the phone, which seems unlikely without a serial number, as you say (sounds stolen to me?).

i just read an article and its very....well funny ;)

apple always says the AES encrytion is safe. well, as long as you don´t connect ur iphone with a linux pc :)

if you think this is one great hacking action:

it isn´t. just plug in your ipone with the new ubuntu and you have full access to the files without entering any password :eek:

ubuntu is dangerous. realy dangerous seems to be the stupidity of the iphone developers, caus this proofs that the key for the encrytion is lying somewere plain on the phone. intelligent.
[General Topics] redpoint73:
That's hilarious. Security on the iPhone has always been a joke.

Here is the article:

[General Topics] Dr.Gonz0:
Security is one thing... got an interesting story regarding a friend of mine. Although privacy is really a bigger issue...

I found this whitepaper that details the many privacy concerns involved with these devices

http://seriot.ch/resources/talks_papers/iPhonePrivacy.pdf
[General Topics] cptplanet:
thx for the paper link....very interesting!

as mentioned there, i´d like to know if other os (like android) were analysed in a similar way?
[Desire General] fmervin:
I've finally taken the plunge and moved to a different OS (android) after being a supporter of Windows mobile for so long. So a lot of comparison going on at the moment :rolleyes:

Anyway, one application I really liked in WinMo was the phone alarm which could change profies, notification settings, connectivity etc. This could also be scheduled. Is there something similar I can have for the desire? I couldn't seem to find such a setting on the desire.

Also, is it possible to activate the screen saver when it times out? Currently I get a black screen, but would be cool to get a clock or something, especially while I'm at work. I see there is an app called 'Desk clock' and I quite like the look of that but I haven't figured out how to actiavate it on screen timeout (like a screensaver)

Finally, has anyone used a docking station with the desire yet? I've seen a few here but not sure if they are any good
[Desire General] chandalf:
phoneAlarm replacement

I too was an avid pA user on WinMo and I haven't [as yet] found a direct replacement. I am using an App called 'Auto Task' which does some of pA's features (http://android.a0soft.com). Still looking for a good location based switching app though.
[Desire General] sbdags:
Try locale for all your needs. It does location based everything and has various plugins you can add too.

I have it turn on desktop when docked, switch off sounds and vibrate mode when entering work, switch off all sounds at night, auto sync when connected to wifi, and enable bluetooth when driving :) Excellent app.
[Desire General] GuestK00466:
Settings Profiles - is worth a look too

Hi.

You might also want to try Settings Profiles it similar to Locale and the WinMo app phoneAlarm.

I've used both (actually I've tried all 3) and I've settled for the time being on Settings Profiles.

It's available in the Marketplace.
[Desire General] muzens:
+1 This is a brilliant app. I recently converted from winmo too.

http://www.probeez.com/
[Desire General] fmervin:
Thanks guys, I've downloaded the lite version of Setting Profiles and it seems very good so far. Lots of customizations possible. I might purchase the full version if the lite version works well.

The only concern I had is that some of the reviews imply that it works fine for sometime and then it is not very reliable. Did any of you have similar experiences?
[Desire General] muzens:
I have the Full vesion. IMO well worth the (small amount of) money. I have had no problems with reliability with the HTC Desire ;)
[Desire General] acrickie:
Profile Switching etc

I have been testing a new app called "Tasker" which has an astounding array of features for controlling the phone. It is currently in beta test but I have not had any issues with it.

Checkout the web page at "tasker.dinglisch.net"

It is due to be released to market shortly and will cost around $6, (if you buy it direct via paypal it will be $1 less) which is cheaper than "Locale" and from what I have seen much more powerful.

I recommend reading the online guide to get a handle on how to use it, I think I am only scratching the surface at the moment but for me I am definately going to buy it once it is released...

[Windows Mobile Themes] thcarblov:
After days of desperate search I found the manila file for re-positioning and editing font size and color in calendar-home tab and tray.

Big problem with custom sliders and icons, the default daycounter in the slider never matches and also the big dayconter in home tab has to be adjusted.

So I edited 4bc5e0f2_manila in m9editor to set x-y coords and font size, color and face!!

Restart manila with TaskMan or do softreset.

This works with my o2 ROM, WM 6.5 and sense 2.1!!

I could find NO answers on the internet, so many questions about the calendar icon problem - and here is an answer. Enjoy! :)
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
Notes:

- XIP porting doesn't work but you can fix that by using a premade XIP as written in the instructions (thanks for ffboy2009 for testing this fix!)

Steps to set up the kitchen:

1. Unpack the osKitchen archive

2. Launch osKitchen and import the TSW file for your device (use the "Toshiba TG01" name and tell it you want to continue when it says it's unrecognized)

3. Go into the Sources\Devices\Toshiba TG01\Profiles\OEMXIPKernel, delete the NK.exe folder and put the NK.EXE from LEO I've attached to this post

4. Go in the kitchen "advanced tweaks" page and in the "OS Sections" select the XIP.bin you have ported or taken from another ROM (remember to match the modules in the XIP you're using with the ones platformrebuilder generates, if the modules aren't the same stuff may break)

5. Happy cooking!

The XIP.bin files have to be generated only when you change something in the xip (which usually never happens unless if you integrate to use extenddir) or when you change windows mobile build. If somebody wants to share their XIPs for different wm builds I will link them there so anybody will be able to cook without having to use xipport by hand.

Update: osKitchen RC18 is available in the oskitchen thread
[TG01 ROM Development] ffboy2009:
thx!

great

i will test this!
[TG01 ROM Development] Nokser:
Hi bro.

This method Unbrick TG01??
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
No, it's a version of osKitchen that (if it works) supports cooking ROMs for the TG01.
[TG01 ROM Development] Nokser:
You did it.

Congratulations
[TG01 ROM Development] mfkiwl:
confused

to brick or unbrick?
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
It was a joke, because there's a considerable chance (I'd say 50%) adding TG01 support to osKitchen has been useless and would only result in unbootable ROMs but there's always hope: platformrebuilder works on many non-HTC devices except for the XIP part (that the kitchen adds separately).

Also even if it doesn't work Da_G is adding relocation and XIP rebuilding to libnb and with that I'll be able almost for sure to get working ROMs for the TG01 probably in a months or so.
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
Let me know if it works. I have added BIN rebuilding too so you can try working on S200 ROMs too.

BTW remember to check the file with TGTool etc to make sure it's 100% valid. I don't really want to feel responsible for real bricks :P
[TG01 ROM Development] ffboy2009:
i have tried this 1.27RC7

crashed while building TG01 and S200 rom..even i didn't do any changes with orgi import rom file.

but import rom works well!

i think there may problems really with prb and non htc device

Also,i think ur work is really great!

I wonder if u can add universal support with buildos+extreloc in ur OSK?

i can share my batch files of s200 and tg01

thx for ur great job!
[TG01 ROM Development] arbu:
nice job！！！！
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
If you put the NK.EXE I attached as I wrote in the istructions platformrebuilder won't crash but as I said in the other thread the problem is making sure the XIP is built properly with the same structure of the one inside oskitchen
[TG01 ROM Development] ffboy2009:
OK,i will try and report!

anyway,do i have to edit NK.EXE with s200 too?

thx
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
If the phone runs wm6.5 you can use the same NK but if you don't know how to do xip porting or matching the XIP modules I suggest you to give up because even a single misplaced module can make the rom unbootable, you need to know how platformrebuilder and xip porting works to get a XIP that is good to use.
[TG01 ROM Development] Mangasora:
It doesn’t dies so easily. I am asking you on behalf of everyone here, including maintenance of TG01 in osKitchen. :)
[TG01 ROM Development] ffboy2009:
i finally make this work for TG01 and S200

pacth the nk.exe u posted

import the official roms,porting xip my self by extreloc

and now,i can run WM 21904 on TG01

thx,if u want to change to extreloc,maybe i can help:)
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
There is something I don't understand: isn't extreloc only for IMGFS? How did you use that to port the XIP?
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
Oh well, as long as you can reuse the same xip.bin without ever having to relocate it again (unless you change windows mobile build) it should be fine then.
[TG01 ROM Development] Nokser:
If you want I have a good working WMRelock for TG01 ROM structure, IMGFS etc...
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
I don't want to add other tools for xip relocation because they all require XIPPort that is a very annoying program. I'm waiting to find a xipport replacement or for Da_G to finish xip relocation of NB
[TG01 ROM Development] Nokser:
,,,,,

You have problem in relocation XIP??
[TG01 ROM Development] airxtreme:
Yes, platformrebuilder doesn't relocate the TG01 XIP correctly, you have to build the XIP by hand.
[TG01 ROM Development] Mik-el:
Officially OS Kitchen doesn't work also with Toshiba G910.

Here is my thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2173155

I can try to cook normally or should I apply instruction you used for TG01?

Thanks

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheBigB86:
Where can I find the appname and version in an apk package?

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheBigB86:
OK, so I found out that when I decode the apk using apktool I find the version info in AndroidManifest.xml.

Generally it appears that the appname is stored in /res/values/strings.xml under "app_name", but I've encountered a case where it is stored under "MIDlet_Name".

What does this depend on? Is this even a general convention or is it coincidence?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
You should definitely read Android documentation. Applications are defined in AndroidManifest.xml file as well ("android:label" arg of "application" tag), but usually they aren't defined directly, but through resources system (strings.xml) to make them translatable, etc.

And if you want app name and version only, then I think aapt tool will be better than apktool:

$ aapt d badging Main-debug.apk
package: name='brut.t1' versionCode='1' versionName='1.0'
application: label='Main' icon=''
launchable activity name='brut.t1.Main'label='Main' icon=''
uses-feature:'android.hardware.touchscreen'
main
supports-screens: 'normal'
locales: '--_--'
densities: '160'

aapt is a part of Android SDK.

[Nexus One General] wondercoolguy:
Well I bought a battery from Google so I switched to a first gen Mytouch to charge the N1 new battery. I have heavy heavy useage out of my androids. Mytouch is running 2.1 Cy and Nexus is 2.2. I chatted, surfed, and texted a lot yesterday from 7 till 11 and my battery was only down to 84%.

My question is how can en inferior phone run Android more efficiently than the N1. Is it the display that is the huge difference maker? My battery life stayed the same after I flashed to 2.2. What do you guys think?

It's because it's inferior it needs less power.

You sure know the QuickMenu - Start manager by our fellow Nanling.

He created this QuickPad app too, but never did translation into english, which made it little non-usable by us, who can't read Chinese.

My first attempt was pretty lazy, editing res in exe, which wasn't very complete work and created some mis-formatting too.

Now there is standard MUI file in english!

what's good about QuickPad:

- multiple instances - will not open second file in the same window

- can open big big files

- can do go to column/line and showing position too

- unicode is called UTF-16 in it.

- can edit read-only files (PHM notepad would ignore save if read-only, quite nasty)

- no touchflo. In file open/save dialog, if you try to scroll by dragging in list, it would come with error (but not crash) (where is this option to disable TF in reg? I saw it once I think)

- if you hold down/up button it will start scrolling by pages (click by line, holding by pages) - can't really decide if this's good or bad

in attachment:

QuickPad.cab: classic EN installation

if your pda is not EN, rename mui code to your lang code:

QuickPad.exe.0409.mui to QuickPad.exe.xxxx.mui

MUI fix-ONLY for EN localized pda.cab: DON'T RUN THIS cab ON NON-ENGLISH PDA's (would reset it to english)

Some EN pdas would ignore mui files. This cab (just reg inside) should fix that.

the cab contains this reg:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI]

"SysLang"=dword:00000409

"Enable"=dword:00000001

QuickPad.zip: OEM - if you know what it is, you know what to do

===

one issue: in open/save dialog, there should be current folder visible in first combo. I can't set original props for this dialog with what I have. :(

I made translation by guess and try :) there still are some strings and one dialog I never saw and can't guess what it is. If someone from China, could go through them and tell me, I'll add it there. Or if someone would run into "xxxS1" by using QuickPad, let me know what was supposed to be shown there.

I've been looking for suitable notepad memo app for WM for forever... one that can truly replace the simple Memo app in old PalmOS which debutted some 15 years ago. One of its key features was that you could create dozens of hundreds of memos and then search through them for a simple string pattern and it would list all the hits and you then could tap on one and you would be put in that memo at exact the point of the string match. Also the searching was FAST, even for hundreds of memos on 16mhz CPU.

I still can't find anything in the WM world that matches this... I don't suppose the app does...
