[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jawor121:
Hi,

I want to unlock my G1 that I bought from T-Mobile UK. I'm going to buy a code on-line because it will be cheaper than getting the code from T-Mobile. I'm in doubt because from what I've read; people say that if you unlock your G1 you aren't able to access Market and Gmail application anymore, is it true?

Matt
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmxrideher:
Absolutely not. A sim unlock will still allow you to access the market apps. I have an unlocked sapphire/mytouch with cm5. Works great. If you want, you can make the market think that you are using another carrier with market enabler. It just sucks that you have to pay for your unlock code....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jawor121:
Ah I see, that's good then I'm going to do it tonight.Shame I have to pay for the unlocking code but it's not too bad, only about 8pound.

Hi everyone.

My Jade is KO. It was working perfectly during last months but yesterday I turned it off and it didn't start anymore... I doesn't charge also, and doesn't connect to my PC...

Does anybody what is going on with my Jade?? I did not beat it... It was to turn it off and... good bye...

Thanks!!
[Touch 3G General] Swaddy:
oh..

I'm sorry, your Jade is death.

I had the same problem and it was a damaged mainboard. In my case, they changed it in garantee.

Good luck!
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
I agree with Swaddy. most likely it's hardware fault, could be the switch ot motherboard. I suggest you send it to the service center.
[Touch 3G General] the mafel hoff:

Hi, I got the very same problem

I did not notice your post so I opened a new thread

Which rom you were using? I was using SpaceJade WM6.5, is it the same for you? I wonder if anyone else has the same problem, because dates of the problems occured are nearly the same.

[Advantage X7510 General] AllGamer:
i'm learning how to put everything together as we speak.

once i get everything working i'll write a step by step guide for our phone, but for now lets keep our fingers crossed :D

i'm tired of WM6/7 looking forward to use Android 2.1 as the default OS, specially now that the market is mostly Google vs. Apple (iphone vs. Aphones [Android phones])

Windows Mobile is being left in the dust, as well as Palm and other phone OSes.

HTC already has many Android 2.1 phones on the market, so it's simple logic to follow that direction as most of the drivers should be compatible, even if it's not some one will be able to help and develop a driver for "Linux" Android.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] marinosv:
Hi everyone,

i desperately need the USA maps for the Sygic software as i only have the Europe ones installed on my HTC HD 2. Could anyone help me on this?

Also, i have tried to install the I-GO my way on my HTC HD 2 but it wouldn't allow me... does anyone know why?

Last, i've noticed that the HTC HD 2 comes with a pre-installed Co-Pilot and a Google Maps softwares. Could anyone please tell me if these worth using instead?

thank you for your help and time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zoth:
CoPilot is decent enough for me. Google maps has no voice turn by turn. Good thing is Bing is around with voice navigation.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Phenomenon:
Went to their site and they do not even offer that map. Also, even if that map was available, it's shareware meaning you'd have to pay for it and asking for it here would be dumb because that would be asking for "warez" which this site doesn't do. Try anything else. Honestly, almost any other GPS software (both online and offline) offer US maps. Bing and Google maps are the only free online ones though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Ian_4614:
anyone know where I can download this app, i found it on the Androbin_R_ ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
Have you tried taking it from the ROM itself? Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Just checked market, there is one called Custom Car Home,... any good?

Apparently Froyo has it built in,... try extarcting it from a Froyo ROM aswel,... Worth trying enit?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Ian_4614:
Thanks for taking the time to reply...

it is, but I am just not technically able enough to take it from the ROM,, i would not know where to start.....
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xmaskx:
Download the Rom you want.

Extract it on pc.

Navigate to system/app/

Copy the apk you want to your sdcard. I think it could be called carhome.apk.

Having the apk on your SD.

Open it with e.g. Linda file manager.

If it works with this Rom it installs fine.

Another way is using adb.

But that doesn't differ in what you get.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
Yeah its not hard,....... XMASKX is bang on,....

A side note,... In Settings --> Applications --> there is a tick box to allow install of applications from unknown sources, tick that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Ian_4614:
thanks for that,,, i found it, and got it onto VillanRom6 but when I try and install it, it just will not run,,, :(

I have attached the app....

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] behelit:
I let my phone run down to 16% and I was planning to let it go to 10% before plugging it in to charge.

At 16% I was on wifi and browsing websites when it just turned the screen off, made a warning sound and flashed the red battery light. After about 3 sec it started vibrating non stop which made me think of the 'discharge' feature on some phones, (which quickly uses/discharges the battery..), I didn't want it to go to 0% so I pressed (tapped not held) the power button which seemed to turn it off. I turned it back on, plugged in, and it booted up showing 0% batt.

My question is, has anyone come across this before? Should the batt % be this incorrect? and why did it vibrate..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
My phone has been frequently below 15% without problems (yes, it's not very good for the battery, I know). It should vibrate once when it hits 15% and display the charge message, but that's it.

Happened once though that my battery discharged from 50% to 0 in literally 1 second, don't know what happened then, but it hasn't happened again.

Sounds like either your battery shorted or the calibration on battery % was way off on your phone. Try charging it to full and see what happens the next time you reach 16%, it might've fixed itself.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandam500:
The other day my Nexus turned off at 11% :/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xzr3b0rnzx:
wipe battery stats after a full charge.. guess that will solve the problem
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
this isnt just a froyo issue, i am still on 2.1 and my battery dies at 8% EVERY time. it turns off, and when i turn it back on, it shows 0% but it died at 8%. its been this way the entire time i've owned the nexus. i'm not rooted so i never wiped the battery log files yet....but i will soon enough.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ian1001:
Ya my phone dies at 20% everytime. I just ordered a new one though
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonnib4:
do that.

On 2.1 my N1, first my N1 had its multitouch laggy starting at 15%, then after some day of uses it shuts down at 1%.

Your battery just need to be calibrate.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] asiancuta:
yesterday morning my SMS stopped working. i was able to receive, but not send any SMS. notification of send stopped popping up and MMS worked just fine. SMS service center number was right. all other data services..email, internet, gps...worked fine. so i spent over an hour on the phone with ATT customer service and technical support..going through their hideous routine by the book (obviously) questions and attempts to fix the issue....reboot the phone, take out the battery and reboot, check if any water damage is on the phone, take out and put back the sim...yada yada.

they figured it was a bad phone and they eventually offered me an early upgrade option since i can upgrade on the 18th of June. and i was (sadly) considering the motorola backflip..since it had android with a skinned UI on it. but LUCKILY i decided..screw it...i'll attempt a hard reset and set ALL my freakin settings up again..luckily some programs offered to import settings i had previously exported onto my memory card. and now all is fine..SMS is back in full capacity.

i love ATT and the customer service was great. they called me back a few times on some of their methods to attempt, including possibly a bad sim or phone hardware issue. loved that they followed up with me to make sure things were working or not.

but i guess if all else fails...HARD RESET the lil bastard :)

[HD2 General] EFMax:
Seen loads, tried loads but this is what I really want..

This is on the opening screen of my HD2 when it's been locked. The keyboard is so easy to use and is very native of a conventional phone keypad. It makes for easy use and the screen is still free to both read and write your text.
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
trust me, im searching something like this since 2 years T.T am i too stupid or is there really nothing like that?

when im walking around with my phone.. i cant type in qwerty mode :/ when i switch to "phonepad" it suxx cause the buttons are again too small when im walking

on the pin input screen there are even two unused buttons, wich we could use as smileys or other things...
[HD2 General] EFMax:
As this screen is already in my phone, I would have thought that it was possible to mix into a cab for keyboard use. I am not a programmer otherwise I would try..
[HD2 General] Toss3:
What's wrong with the regular Phone Keypad that comes pre-installed?
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
it suxx like the standard qwerty keyboard.. no wait, even more xD
[HD2 General] EFMax:
What I would like is the keypad as in the first image for my texting and messaging... not just for dialling numbers..

When I am texting, I do not need all of the other clutter that robs my screen of space so larger keypads would be nice.. I currently use this -

But I need to turn it on its side to text and I only get one line of screen to read what I am writing.. but like I said, the keypad in the opening screen would be just right for me..
[HD2 General] dereklane:
If you download the hero IME keyboard, which you can find by using the search function on mobilerumor.blogspot.com, it has a phone keypad feature.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] androcheck:
Hi!

For those of you who have compcache on their ROMs enabled: Maybe you noticed that in previous versions of compcache there used to be a special file in /proc from which you could read stats about compcache and its usage (by simply doing "cat /proc/ramzswap").

In newer version this has been removed in favour to a userspace tool for the commandline named "rzscontrol". Some ROMs may have already included it. I missed it on my ROM so I grabbed the current sources from http://code.google.com/p/compcache/ and compiled it against Android 2.1 tree.

If you want to install it:

Attached you find 2 zip-files for 2 alternate ways of installing it:

METHOD 1: Install manually with ADB:

The file "compcache-rzscontrol_just-binary.zip" just contains the compiled binary. Unzip the file and perform the followinf steps to install it manually:

adb remount
adb push rzscontrol /system/xbin/
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/xbin/rzscontrol

That's all.

METHOD 2: Install as update.zip via recovery:

Download the other zip-file "update-install-compcache-rzscontrol-signed.zip". Place it in root of your sd-card, reboot into recovery and apply it as update.zip.

The result is the same for both ways.

TEST IT:

After you installed it, you can test it (of course you need to have compcache enabled):

adb shell rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 --stats

This should produce output similiar to this:

DiskSize:	65536 kB
NumReads:	214
NumWrites:	919
FailedReads:	0
FailedWrites:	0
InvalidIO:	0
NotifyFree:	0
ZeroPages:	37
GoodCompress:	62 %
NoCompress:	5 %
PagesStored:	882
PagesUsed:	385
OrigDataSize:	3528 kB
ComprDataSize:	1329 kB
MemUsedTotal:	1540 kB

Of course you can do much more with this tool. It enables you to configure your compcache blockdevice and other things. For full manpage look here: Manpage of rzscontrol on compcache.googlecode.com

Have fun! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] androcheck:
Hi again! :)

For those of you who have "GScript" or "GScript Lite" installed (free app from the Market which allows you to start shell-scripts simply on your phone):

I made a script for gscript, which allows you to start rzscontrol and print out the compcache stats with one touch.

Instructions:

Unzip the file.

Place it on your scard into the folder "gscript".

Run GScript Lite and select "Add script" from the menu.

Enjoy! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] StNickZA:
Thanks very much for this useful info.

If I can get Swype to work with Compcache enabled, I'll try these tools out.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
hehe this is already implemented in VR6.1... my own work though, i did the same what you did two days ago. also included will be a script to turn on and off compcache on the fly :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Geochelone:

Failed to open /dev/block/ramzswap0: No such file or directory

Edit: I guess I don't have compcache in my ROM then.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dipje:
My question is , why does (my own compiled, ahem) rzscontrol crash / coredump / segfaul when I try to give the initial size on the command line. According to the help-output my version only supports --init, and if I give any other one, it crashes. This way I don't really have control over my ramzswap on Androbin. With 'free' I can see swap active and it's being full (so it helps I think :)) but more is impossible.

While I'm typing this: I compiled compcache and rzscontrol from the version in Cyanogen's github, maybe I should try the official site version :)

[HD2 General] Redeyedrichard:
Hi guys,

Ok so on my HD2 there are some wierd blotches permenantly on my screen. Don't get all hilarious and say they are finger prints :D

They are about and inch up from the bottom and are brighter than the rest of the screen. They show up best when the screen is white like when writing an email, texts, documents etc. But they are there all the time. Two big blotches brighter than the rest of the screen.

Is this reason to call in the pros to take a look? It has to be something wrong with the device.

BTW...never dropped it, pressed the screen too hard etc, very well looked after.

ANY ADVICE???
[HD2 General] lyonsb123:
Yea I have this too, must be from an impact with the screen somehow surely?
[HD2 General] theabsurdman:
re blotches

i think this is a recognized defect and not caused by mishandling of the phone.

i've personally seen these blotches on 2 hd2s (and read about others). the first i bought on ebay and returned to the seller as he had not disclosed them but the second i sent back to htc and they replaced the screen under warranty. the unbranded version of the hd2 has a 2 year transferable warranty and you don't even need a sales invoice. they also pay carriage both ways and usually turn repairs around in 7 working days (altho it's £12 to get it back if they decide that the defect isn't covered by the guarantee).

i'd send yours back.
[HD2 General] TBirdUK:
how/who did you send to in HTC - do you have a link?

Many thanks
[HD2 General] cottonpickers:
Mine developed a white 'spot' most visible when on a white page. I went to the htc website and looked up service/repair. They needed an invoice (I printed a paypal page) and offered to collect my phone, or said I could send in myself. I sent in to speed up the process -cost a couple pound. They replaced the screen and returned without charge. Only took around 5 days to turn it around. Great service in my opinion.

ahh okay, my bad.

if the pc has a wireless card but the router isn't, you can set up an ad-hoc wireless network - but thats not something I have done on my hero, only with my elfs.
