Er... I'm pretty sure they can't legally fire you for buying a phone from a competitor... Just like a regular BB employee can't get fired for buying a movie from Wal-Mart or a washer from Sears. Then again, let 'em; might as well get a good lawsuit in there :p

I think I'm the only one that caught this awesomeness XD

I am sure alot of you know or have used the GPS Tracking program called Glympse. But have you seen the glory of viewing a shared glympse through Skyfire? Since Skyfire loads most web pages, it gives you the opportunity to see the glympse live vs hitting the update button on other devices and browsers.

I used one Touch Pro 2 to share the glympse and I loaded the shared link on another Touch Pro 2 through Skyfire. Here is a link to my youtube video.

First, read this thread.

Second, make sure you format your sd card. There is really no reason why you can't root your phone following those directions.

Lastly, happy rooting!
[G1 General] Haad:
ive already formated the sd card several times ,and i forgot to mention that the phone was hard bricked once i got it unbricked using the jtag method i think there is somthing wrong with the spl or bootloader thats y its not downgrading whenever i try to downgrade to rc29 through bootloader it give me an error "not allow 0028008"
[G1 General] ezterry:
Try a gold card.

If it was my jtag method you whould have had a danger spl and could flash anything and I'm unsure why you are back to the stock spl..

If it was omnia's I have some theories depending on how it was executed.
[G1 General] Haad:
yea i tried the danger spl and it bricked my phone and then i got it unbricked with the jtag method and now its on the stock rc 33 rom and i cant downgrade it back to rc 29. i can upgrade it to 1.6.

Hi,

I noticed that my contact icons are the same as they were when I linked my phone contacts with Facebook. Is there a way to update all of the icons? I didn't even find a way to update the icon of one contact...

Tried relinking, updating every application, refreshing facebook contacts, going to the contacts facebook profile so it would update the icon as it refreshes the persons profile picture... but none of thease ways seem to work! Been messing hours with this simple thing...
[Desire General] LaWrona:
Re: Updating contact icons from Facebook

Same here... no solution so far.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpnichols:
So I have been on a touch pro for the last 2 years. Started with 6.1 and eventually put other roms on it, so moved to 6.5 and used mobile shell. Looking forward to the evo, and dumping wimo all together... but I have a few questions that maybe you guys can guide me. Even though I am REALLY tired of the buggy laggy wimo, it still has a few things I hope not to loose.

- Voice command... I know android can do voice search, but can I launch apps, call contacts, etc, with a voice command?

- syncing.... I know syncing is happening more on the cloud level now. And maybe I should embrace that. But I would still like to sync with m laptop. Personally I would love to dropkick outlook and just sync with thunderbird... is my best bet to sync with gmail on both sides, or is there a direct syncing that can be done between thunderbird and android.

- what if I zap my phone or something happens? Do I loose all my apps? I am used to downloading apps on the sd card or my computer and installing it there... the whole idea of an app store is a bit odd to me.

- I can tether now on my phone for free... will I still be able to on the Evo?

Now some Evo specific questions...

- So it seems like 4G is very similar to wifi... something like a long range wifi... hence the term wimax. Does turning on 4G drain your resources in the same way that leaving wifi on does?

- what is the actual range of wimax tower?

- my touch pro has a mini usb port... what sort port does the Evo have? Is it micro?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a5ehren:
Voice command: Some things work, like "Call (contact)" or "Navigate to (place)", but I don't think you can do it for everything.

Syncing: You're really best off syncing everything with Gmail. There are ways to sync your Thunderbird contacts to your Gmail account as well.

App loss: You lose your local copy of the apps, but I believe that all purchases are tied to your Google account so you can get them back when you get your new phone.

Tethering: As far as I know, USB tethering doesn't work on current versions of Android without a separate app, and wifi tethering requires root and an app (or paying $30/mo to Sprint...).

4G & Battery: I don't know as I don't have an Evo. Reports have the battery life similar to any other smartphone, though.

4G range: As far as I know, Wimax has the same per-tower range as any other digital cell technology. You can check your local coverage at Sprint.com I believe.

USB: Evo uses Micro-USB, which will be the standard for all non-Apple smartphones going forward. You can read the Wikipedia article on micro-usb if you want to know more.

Voice Command?

As far as voice command goes, here is a nifty little app for android that does more voice command does... it will even read you text messages and emails.

vlingo is the name of the product.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpnichols:
thanks a lot for the info guys...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX00836:
Syncing with the Google cloud, or any cloud for that matter, is never a good option, and certainly not the best. Privacy demands a desktop sync option with open source clients like Thunderbird. The Android OS is itself open source; we are not going to be forced to use proprietary clients like outlook.

They'd better get desktop syncing working soon.........or the evo is getting returned. :eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frifox:
I also was TP user since it came out, which btw is only 1.5 years and not 2 :rolleyes:

I'm sure you'll LOVE Evo if switching from TP. The only features you might miss are CorePlayer app that played pretty much ALL videos you throw at it (not more than 720p that is) and the ability to re-map software/hardware keys as you like, + the HW keyboard but Evo's keyboard in landscape is very good... other than that Evo will do pretty much everything you could on TP, tho you might need to root to USB/WiFi tether.

I thought google will release official froyo via OTA before coming june...:)

doesn't google offer release date yet??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garryvirdi:
I believe they will wait for 2 reasons...

1. Fix all issues with 2.2 and release a stable OTA

2. Release it soon after 06/07 as a reply to Apple dissing Google at the release of iPhone 4 ;)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faraz1992:
Flash will be an independent release from adobe (not included in FroYo). This is done so that adobe can push updates without going through google...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hukkguai:
+1 to that. There are so many great alternatives that it's just a big ol waste of space.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eclair~:

[HD2 General] totalperception:
I searched this forum using a wide variety of terms such as MyFaves, Faves, Favorite 5, etc... and found nothing so here it is!

I tried a .cab for another phone which would put the MyFaves icon into HTC Sense... and talk about a disaster... I was so happy with The ROM I had installed and it completely removed the home tab from sense and the .cab wouldn't uninstall.

I don't know about many of you but I'm happily on a legacy MyFaves plan from T-Mobile and I'd love to actually have the MyFaves icon appear on my HTC tabs bar.

True there is the favorites option in the contacts tab but it doesn't include some of the unique features of the MyFaves tab like WAVE and Audio Postcard.

This is only a suggestion and nothing critical to the survival of my phone. If anyone has any answers or support for this please let me know and we can pass this petition off to an appropriate chef.
[HD2 General] kcaj32:
Haven't seen any MyFavs cabs for the HD2.

I'm too on the MyFavs Family plan but never used the WAVE or the Audio Postcard. I don't even know what they are.
[HD2 General] kplonsky:
I called tmobile about this and they actually dont offer the service anymore so thats why we dont have it on the phone, only way to change the fav5 is going to tmobile.com and changing it on there I guess. Thats what I was told...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icebergxx:
I'm thinking between the My Touch Slide, and the Nexus. Obviously I love my g1's keyboard.

But, I know the MTS running Sense will never be up to date on current Android OS (though I read they're limiting updates to 2x a year which helps) So I would want to ask if you'd think any hackers would strip it of it's Sense UI and run normal android on it?

And if not the MTS it's a Nexus one and while playing Yongz emu's with multi touch which handle surprisingly really well, I've thinking an all touch phone might do just fine.

Thoughts?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gophergun:
It's happened with just about every other Android device, so I don't see why it wouldn't with the MTS. :p

However, you may want to consider holding out for more info on the HTC Vision, supposedly a Desire with a keyboard.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
And a "Desire" is basically a GN1 with an optical trackdot.... so expect the Vision to be the best of both.

One thing to realize though, is that even the GN1 is still an HTC PHONE, and is still going to be subject to the same support/upgrade life as every other HTC PHONE.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icebergxx:
Android is such a pain in the ass :D

Hm, I guess it doesn't matter all too much. I just read the My Touch Slide is scoring high GPU benchmarks then any other Android out there (though probably because it has less pixels to push around so it's easier, but still)

I guess it will be an ok buy, hope so!
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Hey guys

Just received my Incredible finally, was wondering if I can mess with the phone without activating it first.

It starts with a setup phone thingy, and 2nd option is to activate, but no option to not. any ideas?

I really wanna mess with phone b4 I activate it, as I use my old phone (omnia) to get online still whilst I was testing the phone defaults....

Is there like a way I can skip the setup for now, and come back to it later?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] Scottus:
I was having trouble with activation on my phone, and after a few failed attempts it let me through to the next step. Try starting activation and hanging up a few times and see if that works. Then to get back you can just dial the activation number, which is *228 I think (you should probably check first, don't quote me on that).
[Droid Incredible General] Irishpride:
Yes, you can play around with the phone before you activate it, I did it with both my Eris & Droid. When you are on the activation screen(the one with the Droid on it) just press down on all 4 corners starting with the top left. Do a google search, there are a few guides with pics that show exactly where to press.
[Droid Incredible General] belding:
I was able to explore the phone by hitting the search button, and jumping to settings, or the internet. I dont think it let me to the homescreen like that though.
[Droid Incredible General] runkittyrun:
i'm familure with the android screen and skip method with four corners, i do not recall being able to get to that screen on the htc inc, i belive the actvation was chagned, you can bypass it thou, do the emergence call button then enter the code for manual programing and programm nam1 cdma info with fake number like 000-000-0000 then commit the change and it will restart and go to the homescreen but the phone wont work of corse, and you can view all the menus, *tada*

edit: i believe the code i used was ##778 > call > service password is "000000"
[HD2 Accessories] Felyrion:
I'm in the process of developing a small device to work with the HD2 (like gps, but indoors).

This is a small chip that I will communicate with trough the micro usb port.

Now my question: can I somehow power the device (very low power) with power from the hd2 (ideally trough the existing micro usb connector).

Does anyone know this? I can't seem to find the answer to this.

Any help is appreciated :)
[HD2 Accessories] wlmoate:
Have you measured if there is an output?

The 3 gold contacts near the batt pack have 0V and the batt supply on them. Maybe you could get the extended battery cover without batt and use the extra space to house your gadget. That way no protrouding objects.

Wayne
[HD2 Accessories] Felyrion:
I havent been able to measure yet, I'll try that ofcourse, but I thought someone here might have the answer already.

The power really has to come from the micro-usb slot. Think of the device as a small usb-stick.
[HD2 Accessories] diamond_cbr:
Hello

And if you Buy a µUSB to USB cable (cheap on Ebay), cut the cable and with tester you have your + and - power ????

After you take it for power of your small device...

Not to difficult

And the micro USB for the Léo is a micro usb standard look here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus

[HD2 Accessories] kilrah:
The HD2 doesn't supply any power from the connector. As it wasn't meant to have USB host functionality that's not implemented.

Sorry

I thought there was still an "output power"!!!

Effectively It's just "Input power" :(

And total RAM? (Under Device Info)
[Liquid S100 General] malez:
I am currently writing a complete how to. Does this devices is yours or you will just have it for a couple a hours ?
[Liquid S100 General] malez:
I have written a full how to.

The goal is to keep your devive as untouched as possible (you have not said if it is your devices or not)

First of all i don't advice you to install lastest sdk because adb tools where updated for froyo and can have problems to access device. That's why i provide you an archive with adb in it.

A) Before device

===========

1) install acer drivers : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=E5PTHL3O (reboot the computer to be sure they are isntalled)

2) download this archive (in next step i will call it superboot.zip)

http://acer-liquid-community-rom-bugtracker.googlecode.com/files/Superboot.zip

3) Extract the content of Superboot.zip to a directory, let's say c:\superboot.

4) Copy adb-windows.exe to adb.exe (copy not move) IMPORTANT

5) Download this archive http://www.4shared.com/file/-0yByOIb/mzTools.html

6) Extract the content of mzTools.zip in the same directory as the content of superboot.zip

7) Test can you can use adb :

7a) open a terminal emulator ( start / execute / cmd )

7b) move to the directory where you have stored tools using cd command (for exemple cd \superboot)

7c) adb devices -> should return "List of devices attached" and nothing more.

7d) you adb installation is ready

B) When you have the device

================

1) Go in Settings / About Phone and note all informations provided

2) Go in Settings / Applications / Developement and enable USB debuging (without this will not be able to do nothing)

Connecting to the device

4a)open a terminal emulator ( start / execute / cmd ) From now : all operation must be done in the terminal emulator

4b) move to the directory where you have stored tools using cd command (for exemple cd \superboot)

4c) adb devices -> should return "List of devices attached" and a device with a number (that is your phone)

Dumping system content

5) adb push busybox /data/local

6) adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/busybox

7) adb shell /data/local/busybox tar czvf /sdcard/liquidEsystem.tgz /system

Dumping boot content

8) adb push dump_image /data

9) adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/dump_image

10) adb shell /data/local/dump_image boot /sdcard/liquidEboot.img

Getting files

11) adb pull /sdcard/liquidEsystem.tgz . (will take a long time)

12) adb pull /sdcard/liquidEboot.img .

Files will be in your suerboot directory

Cleaning all traces of operation on your phone

13) adb shell rm /data/local/dump_image

14) adb shell rm /data/local/busybox

15) adb shell rm /sdcard/liquidEsystem.tgz

16) adb shell rm /sdcard/liquidEboot.img

Disable usb debugging. You phone is the same as out of box.
