I have not tested it yet, but here's HTC Messaging Client v1.8.2016 from the Rom that has Manila 2015 core. I included the 0409 files I use with V1.8.2015. (This is an EXT package is someone wants to create a cab from it)

I also attached the Send key files so you have the send icon, instead of the CHT text where the send icon should be.

hey G-ThGraf,

i cant seem to get this to work and i have several questions which i'd really appreciate if you could enlighten me.

1) what is the difference between 2015 and 2016, and why the 1 vs 3 mui files?

2) are the steps to delete and restore messages necessary for the installl to work or are they in place to simply protect ones messages? i ask because i dont care about my messages and it is a bit of a pain to delete, save, restore.

3) regardless of how i attempt to do this i always end up with one of two results:

a) i cannot access my text message application at all

b) i can briefly open the text message app, but it quickly closes and i cannot actually access any messages

if it helps at all:

1) i run spb wms3.5.5 and have sense disabled 100% of the time

2) im on a tmous 2.13 rom, stock.

not sure if there is any further pertinent info but i'd love to get this working and it seems others with my setup have it working.

id really appreciate your feedback.

thanks

UPDATE:

ive made great strides. despite the fact that i never have sense enabled, this is indeed an integral step in the process (otherwise i just got lucky). so here were my steps to success:

1) back up text messages using spb backup

2) permanently delete all messages

3) disable sense (it was already disabled)

4) soft reset

5) install cab (which was transferred to microSD beforehand)

6) press cancel after install to decline restart

7) DID NOT INSTALL THE MUI

8) soft reset

9) enable sense

10) DIDNT BOTHER TO RETRIEVE MY MESSAGES YET

11) Soft reset

12) checked that messaging worked IN sense (and that is was 1.8)

13) DISABLED sense and now this seems to be working perfectly in SPB winmo shell 3.5.5

updates to follow as i progress deeper down the rabbit hole.

[Desire Accessories] boge:
Here is the link to the Vikuiti privacy screen http://www.protectionfilms24.com/article/vikuiti-mobile-privacy-film-htc-desire-30980.html

I am using this one. My verdict is as a privacy screen it works very good, dark from side and quite clear from front, but this is not resistance for scratch. It will protect your screen from scratches but not the protector itself.

What you can also do is, use this one first and on top of it apply another ultra clear screen protector.
[Desire Accessories] zerocul:
Perfect! I'll give it ago! Thank you very much! :)
[Desire Accessories] jaybea:
I have just purchased a privacy screen for my laptop and noticed that the same protectors from the same retailer are much cheaper from Amazon then the retailer's own website (protectionfilms24.com) - £38 compared with £52, both with free delivery. I don't know if the same scale of savings apply to mobile protectors, but it would be worth looking.

[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisDos:
Does anyone have a compiled busybox for the EVO yet. Preferably in update.zip format. I'd like to get Debian working on the phone and Busybox is a requirement.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gtkansan:
Im confused, I got busybox installed from titanium backup. Is that the same one you need? If so install titanium backup, hit 'problems' and install busybox that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chuckhriczko:
I made a custom rom I just posted with BusyBox preinstalled. I will see if I can post an update.zip with busybox in it soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
here is one of my busybox binaries which should get you going. you'll have to manually install it, adb push to sdcard and then using root, mv to /data and chmod 755. should be good to go. if you're using unrevoked root, you can put it in the shadow directory and it'll appear in /system/bin.

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/android-2-1-development/(source)-sdx-busybox-for-android-2-1/ - where we maintain our latest version of busybox thanks to LouZiffer. I use this binary in all my ROMs. Its our community trade off for features with size..

my personally hosted mirror isnt always as updated as the link above - http://www.joeyconway.com/sdx/busybox/busybox (its the recovery version from link above with more features)

i'm sure somebody will throw up an update.zip which might be easier for most users.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Even better :) Will installing it out of recovery work since it needs to add symlinks? You will probably need to go into recovery, and then adb shell busybox --install.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
yea, so depends. if you're as root in normal android mode, unrevoked or one of toast/maejrep's rooted ROMs you can manually install w/o rebooting to recovery. if you dont have root in normal android mode, no custom ROM and no unrevoked root, you'll need to go into the recovery mode with root access.

i think the command to put sym links into /sbin which would be in the default PATH is:

busybox --install -s /sbin

i havent really experimented to see what people are using as their default install locations ... sorry for the rough guide!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cayniarb:
I installed busybox entirely from my phone using the directions laid out in the troubleshooting section on the TitaniumBackup webpage (sorry, new user cannot post link, but you can link to it from the app in the market). I have toast's root and radio and flipz's .6 ROM, and I was able to do it all using a terminal on the phone, so, no recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisDos:
Thank you all. I got busybox installed and working fine. Though I guess I'll have to wait until an official ROM comes out with Ext4 support as it won't let me mount the partition that contains the Debian install. I suppose I could format the partition with yaffs2, but I haven't done any research into that file system. I might just have to be patient until an ASOP based ROM is released or someone includes a kernel with Ext4 support.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate all the hard work put towards this phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrdejavux:
can you post the files and directions to so i can get it installed? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
if you use toast's kernel source released here, you can compile a working kernel with ext4 support ... just throwing out ideas cuz i'd hate to see you stop with your progress!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisDos:
Busybox Installation Instructions

I use Linux, well, for all my computers, including my phone :)

So these instructions are biased for Linux...

Boot into torch's recovery.

Download busybox from joeykrim:

http://www.joeyconway.com/sdx/busybox/busybox

Place it in a directory and create this script:

Install_Busybox.sh:

#!/bin/bash

echo "Mounting /system"

adb shell mount -v /system

echo "Mounting /data"

adb shell mount -v /data

sleep 3

adb push busybox /data

adb shell chmod 755 /data/busybox

adb shell /data/busybox --install -s /system/xbin

echo "Waiting for system to stabilize before unmounting"

sleep 3

adb shell umount -v /system

adb shell umount -v /data

chmod 755 Install_Busybox.sh

./Install_Busybox.sh

Windows/Mac users can just manually run the adb commands and it should work fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisDos:
Well, I compile kernels all the time for my laptop and Myth boxes. Is there a bit of a how-to for compiling the kernel for ARM and install it/replace the current kernel. It's be nice to find out how-to on how to make an update.zip to provide the install for everyone else as well.
[General Questions and Answers] AyanamiZer00:
Lately, I've been noticing that with the newer ROMs I flash, less and less of them support modding the Start Menu. I can't tell what's causing it, if it's newer builds, newer Sense versions, a piece of software somewhere, the different ROMs themselves? Anyone care to enlighten me?

I've been trying to use Nickshot's WinPhone7/Metro Start Menu Mod, which I absolutely love, and it works sporadically. However, I've tried going from three to four columns, and that doesn't work either...

ROM Link in the signiture...
[General Questions and Answers] PayAndDie:
ehm do you mean that mod which is shown on the picture with 3 or 4 columns?
[General Questions and Answers] Ravensysteam:
Yeah Start Menu Mods wont work on my LG GM750 either
[General Questions and Answers] Brau0303:
My 2 Cents

I have found that this mod does work on some, but not all the roms based on the most current builds. It seems to depend on what is cooked into the individual rom or possibly some customizations cause this mod to fail. most of the mod creators suggest you remove any other mods that affect the same functional area to avoid mod conflicts. (This is based on observation on my TP2 & HD2.

Ciao a tutti dopo circa un mese passato a vedere su questo forum di trovare una soluzione, non ci sono riuscito e con questo messaggio lancio un messaggio di aiuto in quanto dopo aver installato correttamente una rom by Cotulla non riesco in nessuna maniera a ritornare indietro, anche alla rom originale. La rom creata da Cotulla è veramente ben fatta ma non funziona la fotocamera e gli mms e la cosa veramente fastidiosa che è in lingua Inglese (senza offesa per gli Inglesi) ma la cosa non mi piace per nulla quindi volevo ritornare a far "parlare" il palmare in tricolore nazionale. C'è da dire che di palmari ne ho avuti parecchi e quindi tecnicamente so come cambiare rom ecc ma questa volta alzo bandiera bianca con la speranza che ci sia qualche anima pia che mi dia una mano (la rom originale non la trovo da nessuna parte). Ciao e grazie.

[EVO 4G General] hexydes:
One of the biggest features I'm looking for in either the EVO or Streak (still not sure which I'm going with, gotta wait another month for the Streak to come out) is to have the Android desktop/UI/home screen sent out via HDMI. What I would hope to do is:

- be using the phone

- dock it (with HDMI to display)

- have the display show up on the TV (preferably fitting the aspect ratio and resolution of the display, though not necessarily a requirement)

The thought then would be to use a mouse and keyboard via either Bluetooth or USB (in host mode, obviously), and use the phone on the larger display to function basically as a netbook replacement (web browsing, music/videos, light gaming, light office prod. stuff).

I've seen other people on here asking around if it was possible, which it looks like it ISN'T out of the box...but maybe a developer looking for something to do might pick up on this post. You'd make a lot of people very happy! :)
[EVO 4G General] Grims:
I am also very interested in this.
[EVO 4G General] techwerkz:
So basically something like this?

http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host/
[EVO 4G General] norkoastal:
I think a good example would be the functionality that matches the current Touch Pro/Fuze TV-Out functionality... Unlike the HDMI output restrictions that are currently on the Evo device, I am able to use the entire OS (Winmo) to select start, programs, play programs, games (Tony Hawk), etc. The TV acts a full clone to what is on the phone screen itself..

I am looking for similar functionality so I can play a movie, nav, on a HDMI connected slate while the Evo is out of site (examples - vehicle screens, portable screens ). Obviously there would no input commands from the screen attached device, but a bluetooth air mouse could help out with that.
[EVO 4G General] jigglywiggly:
Yeah... would be nice, imagine HID bluetooth devices(wii mote controller) hook the phone to a tv, and play some classic games...

RIGHT ON
[EVO 4G General] hexydes:
Yes, as far as input goes, but it would also need software (or a core OS update?) to push the display out via HDMI, at the same time.
[EVO 4G General] laydros:
I was really interested in this as a possibility, and certainly took notice of the nexus one with host USB capability. Bear in mind the Nexus One was not pushing the device's display out, it was running an X server, but still a neat idea.

I know that currently only the HTC software can push anything out of the HDMI port, but I expect it is simply a matter of applications knowing to take advantage of it, probably not even drivers.

A quick google of htc evo hdmi API gets you sprints android development site, which says the guide includes info on how your applications can take advantage of the HDMI port. I haven't messed with the android API much yet, but the only issue would be for someone to write an application that can grab the entire display, and then push it out to the port via the API.

http:// developer.sprint.com/site/global/develop/mobile_platforms/android/android.jsp
[EVO 4G General] hexydes:
Only thing I'd worry about there is that it isn't actually "grabbing" the screen (as in screen captures, polling it for changes, etc) because that could absolutely kill performance. That's why I wonder if it wouldn't require driver access or update, in order to actually "push" the display out the HDMI port (note: I'm not a developer, so I can only do my best to keep up with what potential issues might be. :) )
[EVO 4G General] IPvFletch:
Any update on this?

I noticed if you read further down on the USB Host Mode page, there's info on a USB TV driver (TV IN sadly), an X11 driver (not sure which way they mean), and also DisplayLink although I think that is some kind of device you need to buy. If I could X11 remote host my Android that would be PIMP but I doubt I'll get that lucky!

I desperately want to do this myself (TV OUT from Android), whether it be HDMI or USB or whatever. I need to output the OS and apps (for demo purposes).
[EVO 4G General] evoxsin:
i was thinking the same, somewhere along the lines of PdaReach for palm devices. but the monitor being an actual TV for entertainment purposes. ...trying to get my extra ten dollar fee to use. so if and when netflix decides to make a platform for android devices we could hence watch movies on our televisions via our phones streaming to the TV:confused:
[EVO 4G General] Geniusdog254:
The framebuffer is unprotected on stock Evo's & rooted Evo's alike, so if you just grabbed every frame as it went through the framebuffer and outputted it to the display, it could be done easily on any Evo. That is unless HTC plugged the unprotected framebuffer bug on a new update.

In any case, it wouldn't be that hard, it'd hurt performance a little, but I don't know for sure. An app wouldn't be that hard to make, think a high speed screenshot app, talk to the devs of ShootMe about how they grab from the framebuffer.
[EVO 4G General] IPvFletch:
That IS Genius!! Is anyone going to do this, or do I need to? (I have no Android programming skills sadly!)

[EVO 4G General] knives of ice:

[EVO 4G General] skewbasteve:
I wonder if we can just find the piece of code that the stock Youtube & HTC Gallery uses to take advantage of the HDMI and then implement it as a system service? Or at least have HTC tell or post on their website how to implement the code in their app, especially for the slingplayer!
[EVO 4G General] djthirst1:
Ill buy someone an HDMI cable if they're willing to work on this lol
[EVO 4G General] IPvFletch:
Easy, it's all right here!

docs.google.com/ View?id=dhtsnvs6_57d2hpqtgr#4_HDMI_output_support_82321908 :D

(I can't seem to post a link so you'll have to copy/paste this one)
[EVO 4G General] Geniusdog254:
That won't work. It's already in the Evo developer docs as posted by the person above me. All it does is take any VideoView object in any app and broadcast it over HDMI unless you specifically tell it not to in the application manifest.

There is no way to run that as a service. As of yet I've tried the following:

Copy frames via CLI from /dev/graphics/fb0 (the main screen framebuffer) to /dev/graphics/fb1 (the HDMI framebuffer) to see if it is possible to work it like that. It isn't.

Symlink the two framebuffers so in theory whatever happens to one, should happen to the other. It doesn't work either. It does do something since it breaks HDMI output, but it doesn't display the screen. This could be because the resolution doesn't match one of the TVs supported resolutions.

I'm still going to try a custom kernel once I get my build environment set up (hopefully tomorrow) with a few changes, but I can't promise anything. Anything more complicated than Java is a little over my head, but I can do a little.

I'll keep you posted.

Jesse C.
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
I'm willing to put $10 towards the bounty.
[EVO 4G General] midri:
So it's not possible to say write an app that just sits and takes framebuffer from /dev/graphics/fb0, converts it to bitmaps and then renders it out to a view that would work on hdmi all whilst sitting in the background? I was toying around with this, but havent gotten anything to work -- if you've already tried I suppose I won't waist my time on this avenue.
[EVO 4G General] streets1313:
umm i mentioned before but what about using the incredibles usb video out and/or code it comes stock on that phone (also htc)
[EVO 4G General] Geniusdog254:
As far as everything I've tried goes, no it isn't possible like that.

I've tried looping "cat /dev/graphics/fb0 > /dev/graphics/fb1" but even though it does "steal" the frames from the LCD, they never show up over HDMI. By steal I mean the LCD flashes black for however many frames per second I set it to copy. Also, the performance with this method SUCKS! The most I can get is 3-5fps without building a huge backlog of frames to copy, which renders the phone unresponsive until it copies them all.

I've not tried converting them to bitmaps and then outputting them direct to the buffer, but I don't forsee that working either. Also, just displaying them in a view won't work because said view would have to be in the foreground for it to work and if it's in the foreground, then you can't do anything else at the same time very well ;)

Also, it can't just be any view, you can only display them via a VideoView the way the current API is. Like I said I'm gunna try a custom kernel probably tomorrow, but I can't promise anything. Also, the dev docs say that projection methods will be improved in a future update. More proof the Evo was rushed to market :(

If you have any ideas, hit me up on GTalk: geniusdog254@gmail.com maybe we can work something out.
[EVO 4G General] skewbasteve:
Cmon Jesse I know you can do it!

P.S. On the Slingbox enhancements forum, i just posted the link mentioned above for adding the HDMI capability to the SlingPlayer Mobile app. Hopefully that will get the ball rolling faster heh.
