[Omnia II ROM Development] amdzero:
I'll load this up later and see how it works, as a quick fix, I used to make a copy TaskManager.exe and change the name to MainMenu.exe. That way mainmenu NEVER comes up again. Not sure if this is what you are looking for but it stops mainmenu from loading up at all.

My sister has a viva for her company phone and so as her officemates but they got several problems when they used it... they can't hard reset their phones because it has this special software for their company

The touchflo stopped working... She does not know what happened.. This happened even in her officemates
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] karthiksk:
The reason she is not able to hard reset is because the company program overrides it since hard reset will take it back to factory defaults, losing all company connections\sync. As for touchFLO issues, try re-installing touchFLO.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mvalenci:
Is there any way someone could explain what is the meaning of 'signed' update (for android) means?!

I know the meaning of a cryptographic signature, and I tend to confuse understanding whether this sort of images are digitally signed (by whom?) or just checked against a hash within the image, which means to protect the update against some sort of corruption along its transit (and not against unofficial distributions).

Appreciate your feedback.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] evilkorn:
There are different keys used to sign an update. Test keys are what rom updates are signed with because it's the most generic and doesn't require a developer account. When you sign-up with google to put a application on the market, they give you a developer key to sign your application with. Every developer key is unique and allows for authentic updates and not just someone with an application with the same name. You will get a key mismatch error or certificate error when you try to replace an application with one that is not signed with the same key as the one you have installed currently.

To my knowledge it does not provide any md5 verification features, unless the update has a corrupt signature.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mvalenci:
Thanks for the educated answer!!!

If possible - I’d like to understand this a little bit more:

Can any developer sign ROMs (not just applications)?

How can I tell between images that signed with test keys and ones that are signed with individual keys? (Where is this information embedded?)

How do I associate between a ROM distribution and an individual?

Where is the root of trust that is made to validate these certificate (chains) ?

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] evilkorn:
Anyone can sign roms. The custom recovery allows one to flash roms with test keys. The way to sign an apk/zip is just a java program, OS independant. Perhaps looking at the jar will give you a little more understanding of how it works against the zip/apk.

You can tell a factory rom from a custom rom from the build.prop file. The chances are slim that the factory rom would use a test key.

ie. "ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.2/FRF50/38042:user/release-keys" is in the FRF50 update.

The signature is stored in the META-INF directory in the zip file.

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jar/jar.html
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gee one:
Do you know know many verification checks are needed for an update or ROM to be able to flash? Does the recovery just check the cert in the manifest/cert files? I think the image files are hashed, but are they also signed?

Also does the actual hardware have any keys installed or is all through software/firmware?
[Desire General] Spoonless:
Hi, i'm planning to build me a battery charger for my bicycle to charge my desire, so i can use the GPS for a longer periode of time. Does anyone know what the internal resistance and voltage for the standard 1400mAh battery is?

or if there is a program wich gives me these values?

i'm planning to use DC voltage generated trough induction:

I (charging current)= (Udc - E(internal battery voltage))/Ri(internal resistance)

t (time to charge) = Q (1400mAh)/ I (Charging current)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] kampao:
here is my problem..

at first.. my touch screen starts to act weird.. the pointer does not go to its proper place. =(... tried calibrating it but it does not work

then... the touch screen does not work.. i have to hold it in a certain way for it to work..

then.. it shows a white screen, and sometimes.. its looks fuzzy but i can hold it weirdly like pressing the side of the screen really hard so that it would come back... and then it works again but when I slide the keyboard... the same problem would occur and would stay that way for 5 minutes..

then.. the touch screen does not work at all

then.. the screen is white and does not come back

NOW!!! HOW CAN I FIX IT.. Is there a way or I can call my BA garbage.. but i really really want it to be fixed
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
you can download the htc service manual from my signature. it contains all the information necessary for an attempt to fix hardware issues. you should check the flex cable connections, check for dirt and anything that puts pressure on the display or its connections.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshuaharp:
1. Flashing Multiple Recovery Images

I have used ROM Manager from ClockWorkMod and have flashed all my recovery images using this app. However, I am considering switching to Darchdroid's 2.6.4 ROM and prefer to flash it using Amon_RA's Recovery. However, I don't know if there are ill-effects from flashing a recovery image OVER another or if it will simply overwrite the previous.

2. Nandroid Backups

Also, if I have used ClockWork for previous nandroid backups, will I be able to restore those backups using a different recovery image (such as Darchdroid's Amon_RA)?

3. Strange White Screen

Last night I thought I would go exploring the recovery screen to familiarize myself with it. I shut down the phone, pressed home + power and my phone booted to the weird white screen with three androids at the bottom and was asking if I wanted to clear all data, to which (after a speedy Google search) I pressed the green (send) button. My question is: Can someone explain the meaning of this screen to me (or point me in the right direction to find out)?

Thanks.

[Streak 5 General] nightworker-nn11:
Hi there,

Jst got my Streak on Friday. It's totally amazing, you won't be dissapointed when you get one. There is only slight problem in that it's doesn't play AVI files, if it did then it would be 10/10

Does anyone know of an AVI player for Android

Many thanks and go out and get a streak!

:)
[Streak 5 General] courtlandre:
yxplayer plays avi, but not very well and it costs money. There is also a chinese one that plays avi, but its really too buggy right now and rarely actually works. Are there any phones that can play high quality AVI files?

I think your best option right now is to convert to MP4 format.

PS: Go here for an active Streak forum! Hopefully XDA will get a dedicated forum soon!
[Streak 5 General] nightworker-nn11:
Many thanks

Hi there thanks for the info,

I thought that converting them to MP4 might be the only answer, shame as I've always been a Windows phone user and never had the avi problem. But then been waiting n waiting on the streak and decided to take the jump to Android. Have to say LOVE IT! you have to love the STREAK.

YOu must have left the link of to the Streak thread, off to look for it.

Once again many thanks

Do we need a forum for the Dell Streak? Any developers out there?
[Streak 5 General] courtlandre:
Yes please. The phone was just released and just in the UK and as such wont be extremely popular until its released more worldwide. Already though it has been rooted and it would be nice to have a forum here for that information along with rom releases.
[Streak 5 General] marra2:
+1 for this please !
[Streak 5 General] BorgCymru:
Very interested in this phone myself. Would love to see a section for it please.
[Streak 5 General] rovex:
Its a mighty thing, but needs the 2.1 or 2.2 update to be fully realised. This will happen soon andi cant wait for it.

Here it is next to an HD2, its big, but still pocket friendly..ish.
[Streak 5 General] BorgCymru:
Its the size that I'm interested in. I'm partially sighted and the HTC Touch Pro is to small for all it can do I think.

Its either this the Desire of an iPhone next.
[Streak 5 General] rovex:
Forget the iPhone then. The new one may have a huge resolution, but the screen is puny.

The Dell screen is about the same size as an entire HD2 or Evo. Its very big and essy to read.
[Streak 5 General] rovex:
Its ok in daylight, but no better than most LCDs id say.
[Streak 5 General] BorgCymru:
The 3GS iPhone is OK, I liked the clarity of the screen and it works good in daylight. Mate has a Desire and says you can't see anything in sunny light on the screen.

I've not seen a Dell in the flesh yet.
[Streak 5 General] gator70:
Were can I buy the handset without plan?

Re: Dell Streak

This is a gsm phone correct? I bought my htc hd2 in the uk and use it on ATT in the USA. Will this work the same?
[Streak 5 General] Techvir:
yes. Streak will be released in US next both ( ATT version)
[Streak 5 General] gator70:
I don't want to buy the dell Streak from ATT. I like being carrier independent. I like using my MIFI from verizon for my internet.

Any smart phone bought from ATT forces a ATT data plan on the user. When I buy a non carrier GSM phone I can just slip in the sim card and go.

My MIFI from verizon is a WIFI device. This enables my phone for data, and lets me use it for many other uses.

The price differential is $9.00 a month.

So where can I buy the Dell Streak carrier independent?
[Streak 5 General] cameronr:
Dell will be selling a unlocked version on it's web site soon.
[Streak 5 General] zero.fx:
Yes I love my dell streak had it for a week now and ever since i had it i haven't used my 3gs much apart as an ipod. I think its still very early stages and hope dell can push some updates out as soon as possible.

I believe only running froyo 2.2 will do it any street justice. It will be complete after that.
[Streak 5 General] riz157:
I'm thinking about dell streak can it be unlocked easily un the UK? Plus ant idea how much dell will be selling unlocked version?

Thanks for the review. Are u planning to return it? After reading some reviews including your I'm a bit confused whether should buy it or not :)
[Streak 5 General] AndyCr15:
Yeah, I think I'll take it back. I've not really been able to give it a fair chance though as I couldn't get my SIM to work in it.

If you think you can cope with the size day to day, it's a great device.
[Streak 5 General] riz157:
You are able to.unlock it. Spoke to o2 plus

I know someone who.already has. I've ordered mine payg try it for 14days and see how it goes if returned might get iPhone.

I guess that's the kind of thing I'm not going to believe until I see it. Especially as someone at O2 has apparently said he's aware a lot of their representatives are saying 14 days, they are wrong, no code will be despatched, they wont be unlocking for 12 months.
[Streak 5 General] fantasytozi:
Size is not a problem for me. I love big screen. The things I'm considering is the software and potential for development. It seems not many people/devs are interested in the Streak
[Streak 5 General] pvoveris:
Just got my Streak today and was quite impressed with the screen size, however it has a few troubles that leave me wanting to toss it through any nearby window.

The back cover has to be the most ill thought out design I have ever seen. There is nothing at all to keep it in place. It is constantly popping off, and when it does the damn thing turns off. For someone to have come up with this as a plan must surely love frustrating people. Just holding it has it popping off within minutes, no matter how hard I try to put it on.

There is also sometimes an irritating lag time when you are scrolling lists. It starts to move, then stops responding to touch input. Sometimes it starts to respond, other times you have to hit the back button and go into the list again.

Thirdly are some odd rotate issues. When going through the Market, and doing a search, in landscape you can scroll through the lists to your hearts content, but place it in portrait mode, and you only get the single page and you cannot scroll.

Based on these issues I think I will be sending it back to O2 as not fit for purpose.

Cheers,

Peter

[Streak 5 General] Bunglechunk:
First off, let me apologise in advance if i come across as a complete noob with the following questions... I am one!:D

Does anyone know how it stands compared to the HD2 - UI, speed (RAM not processor) etc.?

Also I've never had an Android phone (only on my second WinMo) so don't know about that side either...:rolleyes:

I can’t seem to find any good comparisons for them and before I upgrade I want to know if it's going to be a worthy replacement for my HD2, or just a waste of time/money.:confused:
[Streak 5 General] theonlynickleft:
I am in the market to buy the Dell Streak .. Wondering, should I bite the $800 eBay bullet or wait for it to hit the U.S. of A. ?? I am on T-Mobile USA ... TIA ..

Diane

PS .. I saw one sold last week for $650 .. Some people are having unlock problems with that 'whatever it is called' sim card.
[Streak 5 General] courtlandre:
Its bigger of course. UI is loads better than winmo 6.5 and speed is better, but much like winmo can get slow if you have too many apps running. RAM is stated as 512 and I usually have over 100 free with apps going, when I clean some apps (I keep alot running) then it goes up to ~250.

If you want a big screen then the streak wont disappoint, especially when dell releases a new software update!! Although, its already been rooted so we might be seeing custom roms very soon.
[Streak 5 General] courtlandre:
I dont think the UK version has the bands for T-Mobile 3G... and its locked to o2. Yes the rebel sim works, but it appears it doesn't work properly for 3g.
[Streak 5 General] theonlynickleft:
I am like a kid at Christmas. I waited months and months and months more for my HTC Shift and when I could FINALLY purchase it I had it mailed overnight .. I am a mess when it comes to new gadgets, but I have the feeling I am not alone.

[Streak 5 General] Bunglechunk:
Thanks courtlandre, I keep going back to it and I just can't get passed that awesomely huge screen!

I think I’m just going to have to bite the bullet and get one... I was waiting for WP7 but since that's going to be a locked down box with no multitasking etc. then I think this is the way to go for me like!:D
[Streak 5 General] theonlynickleft:
I was going to buy one from Europe and 'hopefully' get it unlocked. But I think I will wait for it in the USA .. I know that it won't be long before something NEWER and BETTER comes out and I don't want to have a locked to Europe phone to try and sell. I don't mind paying the extra money to have it NOW, but if I do I want it FOR SURE unlocked w/ 3G to T-mobile .. something like that.

What is WP7 ???

I was the same, when i first herd the streak was coming out i was checking the rss feeds for news. Then on the 4th I was straight down O2 shop to get one. I do have to say that it's still annoying me that i have to convert video for it to play but boy does it play!

I still not sure why some people have problems with it, take it back but get another there fantastic.

Know i'm checking everyday on the updater for the 2.x update, come on dell / O2 give the streak what it deserves and make it a truely remarkable gadget, oh n add avi codec to your media player
