lol, if the OP says the EVO 4G sucks then I guess all HTC phones on XDA suck too.

Hoping something smaller and faster comes out. Basically a next gen Hero would be perfect.

at least with android we got apps that really do work. and we dont need to browse thru pages n pages for great apps

If that was all you were doing, why even mention the Evo?

I mean, lets look at your original post:

12 words long, of which only two have anything to do with asking what's next, the other 10 being a dig at a phone that you're clearly not qualified to pass comment on.

And before you try and suggest that I'm offended or my 'ego has been bruised', I don't own an Evo nor will I ever own an Evo, so that has nothing to do with it.

Hi to all

Is there an app or one setting for enable voice command from the stock wired headset!?

thanxks
[Desire General] le3ky:
This will come with froyo
[Desire General] vivus:
Hi,

Today Goggle has enabled the vocal dictation and search for Italian, Spanish and French people.

I have a Desire with Froyo (DeFrost 0.7b) and I can confirm it works very well, but only for Maps and SMS/Email dictation.

It doesn't work for internet search and voice commands.

In addition for Sense users, the HTC keyboard at the moment seems to be not enabled. It works only from Android Google Keyboard.

Is there some developers available to help us having a complete search function on HTC Keyboard and voice searc/command (if possible to link to the new google language server) ?

Thanks in advance

Sorry for my english, as usual :p

Will we run that on Xperia?

Well there isn't even an official wp7 phone out yet, let alone a ROM for Xperia... So you have to wait for that a lot longer, if it ever comes. There is a wp7 theme though. It is from MSkip, you can find it in the Win Mo themes section. But you need SPB mobile shell to run it

I've had about 4 ROMs based off DC and after having each one for about a week I get an SD card error saying I need to reformat. I do think its the SD card though. its the oem . So I wanna get a new SD card today but won't have a computer til I get home. I'd rather if its possible to swap cards with out having a computer though. So my question is, if I unchecked Dalvik to SD and Apps2sd, in dconfig, will it move them back to int mem? Thus enabling me to swap the cards? (after partition of course) i would try it without asking but don't want to go the entire day without a phone. Thanks!

I am thinking of buying the samsung galaxy s, which is available in Europe right now. However, would there be any trouble when using it on AT&T's or T-mobile's network? I already checked, and it's compatible, but is there anything else that could be a problem?

[G1 General] tej2020:
Don't settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3.

The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3.

This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi.

This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP.

Incoming server settings

IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com

Port - 143

Security type - none

Outgoing Server settings

SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Port - 25

Security type - none

Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'

and enter your talk21 username and password

The End...works a treat for me

p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.
[G1 General] Dodgy_D:
RichPie and Tej2020 are both right. Thanks for those posts on the differing forums.

I also found though that some of the older talk21 accounts no matter if you follow those instructions still don't validate the username.

Solution:

Login to your BT Yahoo email account with your firstname.lastname@talk21.com username and password.

Go to settings and forward your mail (temporarily) to another email account.

You will get a verification email in that account for security.

You'll probably see that the username is not firstname.lastname@talk21.com but firstname.lastname.t21@btinternet.com

Now here's the trick.

Go back to your BT Yahoo email.

Don't forget to disable the forwarding of email (otherwise you'll never get any new emails in this account).

Logout.

Now try logging in as firstname.lastname.t21@btinternet.com and your usual password.

Same account right?

Follow RichPie's instructions (below) for allowing the email to be POP'ed.

1./ Log into you talk21.com account:

options

Mail options

POP3 & Forwarding

click on "allow forwarding"

Save.

Now in your phone setup your email with

Setting up the mail use these:

Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - mail.btinternet.com

Port - 110

Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - mail.btinternet.com

Port - 25

and crucially, the username and password must be firstname.lastname.t21@btinternet.com with your password as this seems to be a migrated username/password combination on the migration of the talk21 accounts into Yahoo and is a popp'able account.

This should work.

Hi,

Please can anyone help me with upgrading the LG KS20 - unlocked, no operator - to Windows Mobile 6.5?

I have downloaded the ROM file from this website mediafire.com/ks20

This is where I am stuck, what do I have to do? Also, if for some reason the upgrade fails or the phone doesn't work with Windows Mobile 6.5? Could I just do a hard reset back to 6?

Thank you for your time and help.

Has anyone got VPN working with a third party provider online e.g vpnuk.net but any would do ?

I can connect over 3G is I don't included the 'secret' key. If I do included it, it fails. I tested on a iPhone, it works either way.

Over Wifi (from work) neither works setup works but iPhone, MacBook, Windows PC are all working.

It suggests that Android VPN software is causing the problem....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] waynechriss:
So i read a story on Engadget that would allow the Nexus One to record videos in 720p. I wanted to do that but i was told that i had to modify my phone with some program called cyanogenmod. I was linked to this guide:

edit: well i'm not allowed to post links on this forum, that sucks. I'll just post a snippit of the webpage.

But i'm lost. I downloaded all the necessary files so far but i'm confused up to this point:

I'm on a Mac so i dunno if that makes a difference to how i approach this. but when i power my phone down and boot it into bootloader mode, i can't access the phone on the computer because the phone isn't mounted, its at the white screen. how can i access this androidSDK/tools folder?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oum:
Ok I have looked for this trouble in the forum and on Google already, and I see I am not alone, but the only answers I could find are : "no bug for Facebook sync in Sense with 2.1, does work for me", "remove and re-ad your account and sync, might be long".

Well... actually... no it does not work.

The fact is, I have tried a few 2.1 ROMs, and I couldn't make it work on any of those, including the last official taiwanese 2.1 release : only the profile pictures are synced, but nothing else : no statuses, no events, no facebook albums, including mines, and cannot upload pictures... very annoying :confused:

So... maybe the problem is not on my HTC Hero with Sense on Android 2.1... and I was right.

So here is THE fix :

1- remove your Facebook account from your Hero.

2- In Facebook, Application Settings, remove all HTC Sense applications (I had 2, maybe one for Sense with 1.5, other for Sense with 2.1).

3- On your Hero, re-add your Facebook account.

4- Fixed :D

First sync might take a few minutes, depends on your network I guess, but not hours like I have read in some other threads...

Sorry for my not so good english, and I hope this fix has not been already given so I don't look like a jerk ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ausch30:
Just flashed Fresh 1.0.1 and my contacts aren't syncing. Facebook for Android works fine but Facebook for Sense is messed up. I already tried what you suggested above before looking online for a solution and finding that it was a common issue. I'm on an EVO and I tried Menu/Settings/Accounts&Sync/ and removed Facebook for HTC Sense, I also removed Facebook for Android and then re-installed both, still no luck. From looking around it seems like a common problem but not everyone seems to be having the same issues.

[G1 General] PSP_Hacker:
Sense UI is slow on first-generation Android phones, and all the attempts to make it fast only result in a flaky, weird experience.

The framework and everything else is closed-source, what do you expect?

All we can do is extract the APKs and modify images and maybe tweak the AndroidManifest.xml or other xml files. Even if we can extract the bytecode (if that's what it's called for the DalvikVM), it still isn't as open as an AOSP build.

The only reason I flashed Rosie/Sense UI ROMs were to get a nice homescreen (which was slow) with nice widgets and a browser with Flash (that was slow and incompatible but still useful for simple stuff).

I would have fun with the ROM for a while, but when I needed to be productive, like Google something quickly or add a note in AK Notepad, it was painfully slow.

Android 2.2 Froyo is amazing. It has many features, the most important IMO being a reliable JIT compiler for the DalvikVM, and Flash 10.1 coming to the browser OFFICIALLY!

When the source for Android 2.2 is released and Cyanogen makes a release for the G1/Dream, I'm stuck on that until I get a super Android phone with a full QWERTY like the G1 :D
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Sense is also UGLY.

As for this flash thing... its not going to work on your phone. Compiled for a different CPU.

Nothing lost there though, flash is terrible trash that the world would be MUCH better off withOUT.
[G1 General] Burko:
Did Flash murder you in a previous life?

It seems 50% of your posts here are about how Flash is the end of civilization?
[G1 General] Azurael:
Flash is a dreadful battery/CPU hog, and I suspect the 'net, as Apple claim, would be better off without it.

That said, given the propensity of web designers to use nonstandard, bloated, un-necessary flash widgets that break navigation everywhere in their pages, making them utterly useless to those with old machines, accessibility needs/disabilities, etc I guess it's probably better to have it than not. Flash 10.1 under FroYo is only marginally quirky on my Desire. Getting there!

Sense, OTOH, I miss... LauncherPro just isn't as pretty. But I think on older hardware like the G1, I'd agree with the OP. It's not necessary to get the most out of Android and if it's causing slowdowns, it's a bit counter-intuitive to the actual purpose of a mobile phone.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
How about just not visiting those websites? Most even halfway marginal websites will provide "if (no flash) then show these links instead", of the rest, you can certainly get the information somewhere else, or failing that, you probably don't want it anyway (the developer is obviously retarded...)

The big important thing to note is that the web is changing. There is MUCH MUCH MUCH less flash around than there was 10 years ago. In fact, I can't think of a single site that actually still *requires* it (except maybe a few sites hosting videos of retards doing stupid crap). I can think of a few that have flash ads -- in these cases, NOT having flash dramatically improves your experience.
[G1 General] PSP_Hacker:
Different architectures

I remember a while back that there was a bug in Sense on the Hero where the package name (com.google.maps) would be displayed instead of the actual application name (Maps).

HTC acknowledged the problem and fixed it, but that's the problem with Sense; if it were open-source, someone (probably on xda) would release a tiny patch to fix the problem. Like if Google made the same mistake in the default Launcher, it would be fixed by the devs online quickly.

And now about Flash: What!? Wasn't it built for ARM? Or do the N1 and other superphones use a slightly different architecture? This is weird...

Another problem is that there are netbooks and all sorts of smartphones with Android.

Most netbooks will have x86 processors (Intel, AMD) and though most smartphones are expected to use ARM, some might use a different architecture like MIPS, or even x86 in the future.

Normal Android applications that are made with Java are fine, but how about all the apps with native binaries built with the Android NDK?

What Google should do is implement a way to compile the same program to all popular architectures, and keep the different binaries in the APK.

Apple did something similar in Mac OS X when they switched from PowerPC to Intel... application files in Mac OS X are basically a package that holds basic information, icons, and the binaries, which make this file format similar to Android APKs, except that when someone compiles their program for OS X, both PowerPC and Intel binaries are compiled and stored in the application.

If Google does this for Android, there will be no problem with different architectures (like with Flash not being able to run on the G1)
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Just like i686 binaries won't run on an i486 CPU, ARM7 binaries won't run on an ARM5 CPU. There are architectural changes that break compatibility of new binaries on old hardware.

Not all native applications are built with the NDK. Flash is a big example -- it has a lot of HAND WRITTEN ASSEMBLY CODE. There is NO automatic way to generate hand written assembly code. Each additional platform you support MUST have its own manually written code.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/index.html

Might not be a bad idea to read up on the ndk.

The applicable line is "You can also build for both architectures at the same time and have everything stored in the final .apk". Seems that they already thought of this ;)

*** but it isn't applicable to flash since flash is partially hand-written. They could easily include the various binaries within a single APK file, but that won't happen unless they actually build the arm5 binary, which is extremely unlikely.

For reasons mentioned above, this doesn't help.

It seems to pull either the wrong weather or very much behind in what it downloads. It shows the sun being out way after dark and rain when there isnt.

What's it showing for you? I've noticed mine keeps switching between Guaynabo, Bayamon, and Puerto Rico (yes, just plain ol' PR)... To be fair I do live right in between Guaynabo and Bayamon so I can understand the random switching there (altho it seems to do it even when I haven't left the confines of my house). Not sure why it just states Puerto Rico sometimes.

The actual weather report does seem to be fairly accurate tho, from what I've seen. I might switch to the ADW Launcher soon anyway so I'm not terribly worried about HTC's weather widget.
[Nexus One General] velenox:
Hope this will be of interest for someone.

I'm Italian, and as other italian owners of nexus one with the beta of Froyo, today we found some news :D

First, no we can just speak for writing sms and email, when keeping pressed the search button still italian speech recognition desn't work, same when searching the web.

Second, finally now we have the google navigator, we can input the destination just speaking and works fine, we can also search the web for something and launch the navigator.

This is of course a great signal, because in my opinion if Google will be able to offer all the services that are already available for the USA customers in the others countries, then Apple will have some problem selling his next product.

Why spent 600 and more euros for a phone, that is of course well assembled and with good materials, while with 499€ you can get a phone that has much more features? The free navigator is a real killer features that we really missed.

Now more countries can follow asinine directions from Google Nav. Enjoy!

Last weekend I gave Google Nav a try... It wanted me to drive 5 miles down a country road and drive through a gated community rather than go down the main road 50 feet away and drive half a mile to my destination. Also one time instructed me to go down a 1 way the wrong way even though Google Maps shows it clearly as 1 way (ie: it knew!)

It's a nice program, and can't beat the price, but it comes with a large grain of salt.
[Nexus One General] velenox:
Yes and no.

They updated maps and navigation now that are going to release Froyo.

As I said they are now offering all the goodies of android also in other countries.

It's a good sign, to me looks like that with Froyo they want release a great product and now they can.

As for the navigation I'v tryied it a bit and to me looks very nice :D
