[Hero CDMA General] duffkitty:
I too settled at ZenEXP. Sense is fun again and modes and multiple themes makes it customizable without dedicating a theme by flashing it.

Second choice, and may reflash one day would definitely be Darchdroid. That Rom is amazing with all the work put into it. It's crazy fast and looks hawt.

I run regawmod on a daily basis, his latest themed version. Runs clean, lasts a good while on the battery and I like the theme work :)

I'm now running DarchDroid 2.6.4, the only OC'd ROM that will run on my phone (not that I want any other ROM, as I hate Sense UI with a burning passion).
[Hero CDMA General] x0fx3:
I just got the Hero not long ago. It's my first Android phone so I'm stuck with it for a while. I'm interested in possibly making a rom. Looking over some of the guides right now. So whatever I do I'll be sure to post it to xda. :) Right now I I have 2.1 rooted.

i dont have the phone yet, but i dont think rooting Stock Rom causes you to lose anything...its only when you move to 2.2 do you start to lose things...i may be wrong though

That's the ROM that I used but I don't have 4g in my area to check it out. I haven't been able to sync my Outlook contacts to the phone since rooting though, don't know if anyone else is having that issue.

[Droid Eris Android Development] Palmbxr:
I want apps2sd but cant figure out how to work it, my phone frequently runs out of space and i was wondering if some kind person could help me partion my sd card. I already screwd it up and deleted every damn thing on my sd... songs, priceless pics anofcourse ALL of my apps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] adaneshade:
Well, for one thing. There is no way of which I am aware that you can partition sd without a full wipe.

First thing you should do is a nandroid +ext backup of your phone. Then copy the nandroid folder th your pc. (Should be located on root of sd.)

Afterwards simply go to partition. From there it's pretty simple. The standard 32 meg swap is fine. I like to make the ext 1 gig, however (personal preference). After all that goes through, you have the option of converting the ext2 to ext3. Then to 4 (unadvisable atm as alot of kernels don't support it yet).

Afterwards, install your ROM of choice with a2sd included.

Feel free to chime in if I've left anything out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Palmbxr:
What does converting the ext do?
[Droid Eris Android Development] adaneshade:
It just converts it to a newer filesystem. They have slightly improved performance and file management.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Palmbxr:
So should i convert my ext after?

[Droid Eris Android Development] adaneshade:
that's hard to answer, it really depends on what you're running on it. While each step up provides a bit more performance, it have a slightly greater chance of being incompatible with a program. I run ext3, btw. If you're curious, ask the developer of the rom you want to run and I'm sure they'll tell you whether to run ext2 ext3 or ext4.
[Desire General] Paintguy_:
Hi all, first post.

My Desire is new to me so I'm playing with it constantly, which is obviously killing the already marginal battery rather quickly. On previous 'regular' phones I've always tried to run the battery as low as possible before doing a full recharge, but this isn't possible at the minute as I find myself running low mid-afternoon, so need a top up to make sure I get home without it going flat.

Will this harm the battery in any way? I know battery tech has come a long way in recent years, but I don't want to kill it prematurely by just putting an extra 20-30% in it now and then.

Thanks in advance,

Andy.
[Desire General] MadMic:
Not good dude, the desire use a li-on battery so a deep discharge is one if the worst things you can do to it. Jump into google and have a read of the wikipedia article on it :)

[HD2 General] BlueLux:
Till now I've been using the HD2's standard HTC keyboard as SIP, as I haven't found anything I was really satisfied with.

Until yesterday I installed Resco Keyboard Pro 6 Beta, which is just fantastic (read about it elsewhere in the forum). Perfect for HD2.

But now, I've discovered that a number of my apps changes the SIP back to standard HTC when I open them. Resco's option to make its keyboard the default SIP does work. After soft-reset, it's still the default SIP in most programs.

So I tried installing Fingerkeyboard, SPB Keyboard, etc, just to make sure it wasn't Resco's fault (as it's a beta version anyway...). The same happened with all the other 3rd party keyboards.

Is there anyway to prevent apps from changing the SIP? It's driving me crazy, have to manually switch back to Resco everytime I open those stupid apps (which I depend on at work :() Thank you in advance.
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
Use XDA google search and look for a programme/cab file called sipchange.

Install it then select the keyboard type you want as your default; problem solved.

WB
[HD2 General] BlueLux:
Not that simple, I'm afraid. My problem is not how to set Resco as the default keyboard after SR. Get that already with Resco's own inbuilt option. Then I tried using both SIPChange and default_IM_WM5.cab. It still happens, some of my apps changes the keyboard back to standard when executed (and it is not about setting the delay in SIPChange, I'm talking about after all the processes during SR).
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
That's strange. Never had this problem with Sipchange installed.

You are certain that you have set your preferred default keyboard via the sipchange utility? That's how you get the keyboard you want to boot up after a SR.

If yes then not sure what else to suggest.

WB
[HD2 General] anilhk:
Hi, I am having the same problem. One example of such software is Lingvosoft, when you hit search key, the keyboard pop opens, but with default keyboard, even after using sipchange.
[HD2 General] BlueLux:
I was thinking maybe there's a way to disable the standard HTC keyboards all together through the reg. But that's asking for trouble/hard-reset :(

What to do...
[HD2 General] BlueLux:
I think the problem is that using SIPChange, DefaultIM.cab, nueSIPdefault, etc, none of these really changes the value of "defaultim" at controlpanel\sip. It remains with the standard keyboard's CLSID.

I'm really tempted to change this value to Resco's, but reading around here in this forum shows a lot of people having big trouble afterwards messing with this value (mainly because they used the wrong CLSID?) and required a hard-reset...
[EVO 4G General] GHOST99K:
EVO is great and i couldnt get my hands on one today even with the preorder at BB and i was pissed but found out another HTC ANDROID coming to wimax and HSPA gsm(or worldphone) so now im backing off from the EVO and will patiently wait for another android(most likely the scorpion).also so many new threads today on so many things not working and complaints on the EVO.here are some links on the SCORPION

[EVO 4G General] MrDSL:
you mean theres a phone that works perfect with no bugs at launch? i want one!
[EVO 4G General] GHOST99K:
yea hopefully that doesnt happen in the future by HTC or the carrier.but yea im jus hopeing the SCORPION doesnt have any slideout keyboard.hopefully a gsm or a worldphone would b perfect.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
since ur still piss about not getting your EVO so your going top spam every chance you get about the new phone on the horizon ?
[EVO 4G General] Mecha2142:
This is ancient news. Rumors have been spreading about this device since February. We really don't need old news on the device trying to spoil the excitement of the Evo's release. Besides, the Evo is an Android device, so this board isn't likely populated by Windows Phone 7 fans.
[EVO 4G General] rockstar1o9:
I guarantee HTC will release an even better and faster Android device than the Scorpion so you probably should hold off on the Scorpion as well.
[EVO 4G General] GHOST99K:
if u have nothing good to say dont say a thing.i did not insult your evo i said heads up for another great device that is coming.have a nice day.

dont care about the wp7 phones.HTC SCORPION-android 2.2 froyo and 1.5 ghz dual core processor.it'll eventually come out.just heads up for the ones who dont know about it but not u.have a nice day

so, realized i had a mini usb charger and not a micro usb charger for my car. went to walmart. all their car chargers were 15 dollars except for 1.

it was for kyocera, but was just a micro usb.

so if you dont want to wait for a cheap one from online to ship, go to wally world, check out the kyocera chargers, and get it for 10.
[EVO 4G Accessories] drewX2:
Or you can buy one for $2.50 shipped on ebay.
[EVO 4G Accessories] penguinking6:
I agree with drew on this one. I haven't found a cheaper place for a car charger other than ebay. Electronic stores tend to rip you off.

If anyone isnt comfortable with ebay, there are plent of estores that have them for cheap as well.
[EVO 4G Accessories] drewX2:
Yea that free $20 accessory credit from Radioshack was used on a stupid $20 car charger because they had nothing else in stock. I had no choice. It was either that or nothing!
[EVO 4G Accessories] mrjkwik:
Well, that is why I said "if you don't want to wait". I agree with the eBay thing, done it many times. But, couldn't wait given a road trip tomorrow.

[Android Software Development] maverick106:
I've written a small app to parse some rss feeds from YouTube and launch videos selected by the user. To play the video, I'm using an intent:

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(videoAddress);

in order to call the YouTube app, if installed on the device.

The problem I'm having is that, of the population of videos I am using in my app, about 90% of them display a 'Cannot play video' error message: "Sorry, this video cannot be played.". A few of them work just fine from my app. The videos that do not work will play fine in the YouTube app if searched for and launched entirely from within the YouTube app.

Has anybody seen this behavior, or does anybody have any ideas for things to try? Obviously the YouTube app launches videos in a slightly different way internally than it does from an Intent request, but I haven't a clue how to get to the bottom of it.
[Android Software Development] arvindms82:
Hi,

I am also facing the same problem ... " Not able to play the videos in YouTube"

When i analysed the log, i could note that youtube is not calling the my movieplayer(this is app written to support all kind of playback). Instead it is directly calling the "MediaPlayer" service and PVPlayer service.

I would be thankful if i someone explains as how the youtube launches the video

Thank you

Nope, that's always been a limitation with 3g. You cannot do both on Sprint's 3G CDMA network. Same for VZW.

[EVO 4G General] bernechad:

[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
you can with WIFI on
[EVO 4G General] tstack77:
I'm still lost as to why this is a deal breaker. I have needed that functionality only a handful of times over the last many years.

Some people really buy into the hype that at&t has been pushing these last few months :cool:
[EVO 4G General] Rennat:
Wow, you just need to settle down. Having Data and voice at the same time isn't that important.
[EVO 4G General] hchavarria:
I just came from AT&T and I can count the number of times I have needed that feature. Most of the times has been when I am on a call and need to look for a phone number in maps or something like that.
[EVO 4G General] crazy talk:
same, if it comes down to it i'll just call whomever back.

i'm experiencing MUCH faster data (20-30% speed improvement over AT@T in my area). so it's a worthwhile trade off for me.
[EVO 4G General] moosic:
I'm going to keep it for 28 days and see how it works out. I surf the web a lot while on conference calls. Also use it to look something up while talking. Typically, when I need it, I really need it.
[EVO 4G General] KyleK29:
I can't say I've ever needed that feature. My only Q for those with the phone, is the reconnect (to data) very fast? I'm assuming it's probably instantaneous.

I had a (long ago) Windows Mobile phone that had this slight inconvenience, only issue was that it took about 15 seconds to get a data connection again.
[EVO 4G General] 06ms6:
The reconnection is not something you'll notice as far as time goes.
[EVO 4G General] tstack77:
This is the only reason that I have ever heard that makes any sense...but of course when I'm on a conference call I am also usually at my computer.

There are not many people in your exact situation (conference calls away from desk), so really this is a slight inconvenience for 99% of people.
[EVO 4G General] Quiksmage:
The ONLY time this has bothered me is when im tethering and i get a phone call or text and even then it only really affected me when I was video chatting with someone or another form of stream. The fact that it goes off when I get a text momentarily is more annoying than the phone call one though, because I tend to get many more texts than phone calls. If i'm on a phone call, I don't need to be tethering anyways generally.
[EVO 4G General] thecodemonk:
It's also not exactly hard to test...make a phone call, then watch for the 3G symbol at the top of the screen.
[EVO 4G General] KwestJones:
It really depends on the person. I used it all time (i am sure we can find these exact points in another thread) but the EVO is well worth the sacrifice for me.

Used it today on my EVO as a matter of fact, I was in WiFi country needless to say

Sim. voice and data is really handy. Ever heard of Bluetooth. Browse the web and talk pretty easily. I can't say it is a deal breaker for me, but with no Wimax ( I refuse to call it 4G as it is not actual 4G) in my area their 3G speeds suck ass. AT&T I get 3.5mb down and 1.5 up. I tested on the Evo at Sprint store and was getting 900 down 900 up. Phone seemed pretty nice but don't think I want to ever go back to a CDMA carrier ever again.

[EVO 4G General] RavenII:
EvDO is limited in that respect. There is not and will not be a way to make calls when on 3G...unless you're using WiFi. EvDv was supposed to come out for this reason, but at the time carriers and Qualcomm decided no one would really want it...

[EVO 4G General] farfromuman:
It seems like typical Sprint customers don't miss this feature because they never had it to begin with. Same goes for "real" 3-way calling and World roaming.

Sprint should have just gone to Rev. B and later to LTE (they probably will in the end).
[EVO 4G General] thelastgoodbrother:
It was really bothering me at first because I was coming from T-mobile and got use to having the convenience. I have since realized that I don't reallllly use that feature that much. It was still annoying that it wasn't there though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Has anyone else noticed the F Stop/Aperature on the i9000.

It's a super low f2.6

As anyone who understands photography, the lower the number the more light is let in and as such means you can work and shoot better in poor/dim lit conditions.

The trade off is a Low Depth of Field.

I have quite a few cameras and at f2 they produce some stunning night photography.

Granted the sensor is not up to the same standards as that found in class camera lens but to have an f2.6 in this camera should still be great for shots that either require a bit of speed or for low lit situations.

Seeing as the i9000 does not have an LED Flash this is certainly going to help. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
interesting piece of news :D thank you. sounds good!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BasieP:
i know quite a bit of photography, and in theory your right.

The only thing is that most phone cams have 'super big aperature', but since the lenses are very small and the sensors are also, it doesn't say anything about the quality.

Also the aperature doesn't say anything about the number of lumens the lens can catch.

it's just a calculation number.

aperature with your zoom factor make your depth of field and actually it stops there.

I have seen 4.5 lensen (on my dSLR) that can make perfect pics with no light at all, but also i've seen 2.8 lensens that suck totaly. simply because if the small lens opening.

On the other hand. Though it's still a calcuating number, it does give a good indication if you compare it to other phone cams.
