Is there a simple launcher app that is very light on resources, better than zeam?

You could try GO Launcher, but from what I read, Zeam is the lightest.

I have no problems with LauncherPro Plus though, it's the one I use all the time.

I just saw a guide in the Hero forum that allows you to remap keys so you can choose their functions. Is this possible on the EVO? I know the file being pulled/edited would be named differently but can the buttons be altered?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frifox:
+1, would love to find out as well... i did find an app on marketplace that mapped search key longpress to launch itself so hw (actually sw) key mapping is definetely possible
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kshawn:
What would you possibly remap them to do tho?...we only have 3 hard keys.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frifox:
Longpress search key - toggle vibrate OR launch quick volume/brightness manager. Then, when music app is playing and screen is off/locked - up plays/pauses track, down plays next track, up longpress - rewind, down longpress - fastforward. Turning on/unlocking the phone un-maps the keys and i change the volume with same keys... Will remove the need to turn on lcd and the need to look at the cell while listening to music.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rank78:
All nice ideas. Let me know if you ever see something for EVO key mapping.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redtxstar:
Id also like a way to do this.. I dont like the lock button location.. when using one handed, I always end up hitting the volume.. or hitting search.. probably because I was used to the lock button on the hero. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokash34:
It is possible.... here is how!

I first realized how much I wanted to remap keys after I used a cyanogen rom a while back. He had an option that would allow you to let the power key end a call when pressed. This was awesome because I hate ending calls by touching the screen because sometimes I press it twice and accidentally redial and so on... Anyway, I've switched to a million different roms since and this option is not present on any of them. I knew there was a way but figured it was far too difficult. It isn't...

I followed the tutorial from the hero forums using the link in the first post. The file that you need to edit is in the same place that the hero file is in but it's called supersonic-keypad.kl instead. I edited it right on my phone using root explorer... But I'm sure you can use other methods. For my simple edit I changed the second line. I deleted the word power and replaced it with ENDCALL

... I recommend reading the tutorial carefully and making a copy of the file before making any changes just incase. I am going to remap a couple other things now... But that was my main concern. After editing it... Save and then reboot your phone to let the changes take effect...

I hope this helps!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebluecoat:
Hey guys,

Right now im running kingnexxusdesire rom 2.1 that includes an undervolted kernel as I understand it. I'd like to change to the undervolted overclocked kernel.

When I get the kernel which right now I have "boot-cm_2633.2-oc-uv-xtra-ram"

Can I change the kernel easily? If so, what are the steps?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watercool:
download kernel, put it in the root of your sd card, reboot into recovery, choose flash from zip .. done..

if you have root (what i assume :D) download quickboot from the market, great tool for faster booting into recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebluecoat:
SUPER EASY, wow.

Thanks for letting me know! Most appreciated!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebluecoat:
Actually, I tried all the kernels in .zip format like you said that were overclocked.

i get to the quietly brilliant screen, it finishes writing, then reboots over and over, what the heck?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
Make sure you have the right kernel and compatible with the ROM you have right now. Kings ROM being an older ROM not sure if the .33 kernel work on that. Try the .32 kernels by pershoot. You might have to push the zimage and wifi module manually though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebluecoat:
Rather than ask how to push a zimage etc.. Can you tell me if there are any desire roms that have a 1.113ghz kernel preloaded?

I choose to use this rom instead because modacos bluetooth doesnt work and this one does for me.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
I could help you either way and whatever you prefer to do. :-)

But as far as desire ROM. If you can't use Modaco's you should give this a try, now this isn't really a full desire with sense UI but a touch of it. I loved the ROM though and if I wasn't satisfied with the FroYo this would have been my ROM.

He doesn't specify if it still has pinch homescreens, if it does I'll go with that, I dont really care much for the widgets myself which i could probably add later

nevermind, i just saw a screenshot, i love my pinch homescreens.

could you tell me how to push the zimages and give it a try? im trying to outdue my gf's evo so i can claim better phone LOL
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
I don't think it has pinch homescreen but it has the same effect when you press home button. The adw launcher that comes with the ROM is highly customize able.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
LOL I knew this was coming... :P just flash the FroYo, shell be jealous of the JIT and the Flash lol.

Well I tried looking for the .32 OCed kernel but no luck... So if you find it, all you have to do is unzip the file, it will have the "zImagefile" and the bcm4329.ko file.

Now assuming you know a little bit about the basic adb commands do this simple steps:

While your phone is on:

- adb reboot bootloader

It will take you to the bootloader screen

- adb remount

- adb fastboot flash zimage "zImagefile" (Note: type the full file name, probably be zImage_cm-oc-uv something like that)

- reboot phone

Once phone is on.

- adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules

- Set CPU speed via SetCPU app from market

You should be all set. :)

I previously had the free beta version of sprite backup. I deleted it after a while cause i didn't really use it much, but i did use it a little for saving my bookmarks for when i switch ROMs. the problem is, now that the app is $4+ in the market, do i now have to pay for the app to use it? and another question of curiosity, if the price of an app goes up, we don't have to pay the difference right?
[Desire General] ljesh:
Hi all,

I followed Paul instructions to rooting Desire and I guess I made it.

Anyway, I would like to go back to the HTC generic ROM for Desire so when Froyo comes out I don't have to root and everything again, but simply take the update from "check for update".

Can anyone give me instructions how to wipe this ROM and install the generic one?
[Desire General] oursoul:
I think doing an OTA update for Froyo is a dumb idea, why not do a fresh, clean install :)
[Desire General] ljesh:
You may be right :)

Anyway, I don't like this installation since if I check for update, it tell me there is (1.21.405.2) and I got the 1.15.405.4 installed. If i try to update it, it fails.

So I am stuck... I would like everything to work as it should, and not being concerned about this issues :/
[Desire General] franklinvv:
Then why not install a 1.21.* custom ROM then? E.g. the MoDaCo ROM is based on a 1.21.* version. These versions usually leak onto the internet sooner than they get released by HTC.
[Desire General] ljesh:
Can anyone explain

1. why the 1.15.405.4 sees the 1.21.405.2 as an update, but doesn't/cannot install it

and

2. what is the difference between 1.15.* and 1.21.*

I know, so many questions and so little time, but please bare with me :)

[HD2 General] Michaelfarb:
I dropped my hd2 on concrete and cracked the screen but everything still works perfectly fine. now ive gone over all of my choices and they are:

(i do not have insurance of any kind)

-Buy a new digitizer (which is what i believe to be broken) and replace it myself, which ive heard is either very hard or not possible(risk destroying the lcd in the process

-buy an already assembled digitizer+lcd screen and totally replace my screen (which is more expensize but less easier to screw up in the repair)

-send it to htc

so these being my three options, what do you recommend i do to solve my problem? thanks
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
take out insurance with such a great device, lol sorry send it to HTC man, do you really wanna break it even more, and secondly don't drop it??
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
As you stated the first option is insanely hard and really not recommended unless you are a proffessional.

the second option is a little easier and there are relatively good guides available,

after a quick search, here is a very good set of pictures showing the process:

http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/htc_hd2/

there are more guides available and I have a .doc file with a guide in it if you need further help.

the third option is pricy but obviously the safest. If money is not a serious object for you I would be leaning towards this. unfortunately you do own a very expensive phone so you are somewhat expected to be able to pay the huge repair fees associated with it.

So the choice is obviously entirely yours but i would lean towards a 3>2 > 1 decision depending on your money situation and your skill in micro electronics.
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
As the above poster does say insurance is a neccessity with this device, generally insurance for these phones is between £3-£5 a month, really not a bank breaker.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
I pay £120 a year to insure mine. I'd not trust a £3 policy that's for sure!
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
what do you get extra froma £120 insurance?

i have checked my insurance documents and the only things it doesnt cover are general wear and tear and if the phone gets damaged during a war (why this is stated I have no idea :D)

It does however specificaly mention it covers accidental water damage and also damage from broken screens and cases.

so I really dont see what I would be missing from this insurance over some more expensive insurance?
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Maybe I am just paying for the 'privilege' of being with O2UK, sounds about right. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
mines not with a carrier, they always rip you off since they can pretty much guarantee people will take their insurance if they just add it on automatically. Just need to do a bit of price comparison to find the best.

Mine probably isnt the cheapest but it does cover all the things I need it too, some of them are a little sketchy on water damage and screen replacements.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Who is your policy with? I could really do with canceling mine then. The only reason I pay so much is I've had 2 replacements with my Diamond a year or two back and one with my Kaiser 3 odd years ago, they had no qualms about swapping the phones at the door and just giving me a new one.

Most will insist you send them back and they leave you phoneless for up to a week before they will send a replacement.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
I hear what you saying about carrier insurance but mine is £6 a month with virgin and im covered for anything so didn't do to bad out of that
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
hey check here for a list of 3 insurers:

http://www.comparethemarket.com/more-products/mobile-phone-insurance/

I am with betterbuy but all three insurers use Citymain Administrators:

http://www.citymain.com/da/21920

(yours probably does too, since they are the most common insurer )

so you are going to get the same level of service from all of them it just depends on what price you want to pay versus how many extras you want.

Insurance2go = £40 per year for everything except loss and £54 including loss

js is £59 for everything excluding loss

betterbuy is £19.99 for accidental damage, £39.99 for accidental damage + theft and £49.99 for everything.

js has the best wording in their policy documents (and the lowest excess)but they do not cover for loss :(

betterbuy and insurance2go have almost exactly the same policy document but betterbuy is slightly cheaper for the same level of cover.

hope this helps a bit.

I didn't do completely exhaustive research so I may be wrong on somethings.

I ended up phoning them up to clarify they covered certain things, like screen damage since before I got my hd2 I saw a lot of posts about cracked screens.
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
Oh yes regarding the swapping the phone at the door, that is very nice but I do have many spare phones (life of a techie :D) so I do not really need that level of service.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Thanks buddy I really appreciate you taking the time to research it on my behalf, that's a bit more than I expected! :D:D
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
Your welcome, didn't take too long just had to retrace my steps.
[HD2 General] johnk1973:
I too cracked the glass and decided to have a go myself, i waited more than a week for the glass, followed the instructions and dismantled the phone without much hassle, just screws, plugs and a few stickers. Separating the glass from the lcd was another matter, i ended up breaking the LCD (quite badly) and had to order that too (another week). From what i've read more people break the Lcd than don't, specially on the first attempt. Also you have to de-solder the digitizer and Lcd apart and solder back again. No small task in it's self considering how small the contacts are. If you're not in a rush and want to save some money order the digitizer, try your best and if need to order the Lcd after you break the old one ;-)

If you really need to get it done in one go order both, if you do manage to do the job then sell the spare Lcd on ebay.

[Desire General] davey.tran:
Hi! i recently decided to flash the Modaco Custom rom 3.1.

I wanted a fresh start on my desire, but only after i Flashed it, did i realise it doesn't remove all my apps and data.

So went to settings and did the factory data reset thing, but when the phone restarted, it got caught into a reboot loop.

Any ideas on what could causing this, and any ideas on how i can start fresh with the MCR 3.1?

Thnx
[Desire General] NordicZz:
Try to first wipe/factory reset your phone via the recovery, and then flash MCR 3.1 :)
[Desire General] davey.tran:
O M G ..Thanks - How out of all the things i tried, did i not try factory resetting before i flashed.

But still. Does anyone know why this happened? I mean if i factory reset again. do you think it would boot loop again?
[Desire General] franklinvv:
I think it shouldn't boot loop in that case. The problem was probably caused by some stuff that was left over from the previous ROM that you had on your handset.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ireas:
If you are on FW: 2.0 or 2.0.1 Read PART 1

If you are on FW: 2.1 Read Part 2

MOD EDIT: For the Telus 2.0.1/2.1 Milestones, start at Part 2.

PART 1

So you are on Firmware 2.0 or 2.0.1 and wanna get root permissions.

First thing you need is the rooted update.zip, which you can download HERE

Put the ZIP file on your SD card

Shut down your phone

Go into recovery mode by holding the Camera-Button and pressing Power-Up

When you see the /!\ -sign press Volume-Up and the the Camera Button

Select "Apply update.zip"

Your'e done

PART 2

Be sure that your phone have atleast 80% of charge.

To root a 2.1 phone we need to downgrade the recovery

For this we need a Only-Recovery SBF file which we can flash via RSD Lite

First install the USB drivers from Motorola

The you need the RSD Lite Tool | Linux machines can use the linux flasher (created by [mbm])

And the Recovery-Only SBF (which will downgrade the Recovery Partition and not the system)

Start the RSD Lite, select the SBF file

Plug in your phone (while its off)

Go into the Bootloader Mode by holding UP (on the hardware keyboard) and press Power-On for 2-3 seconds (if UP doesn't work try pressing X)

Now select your phone which should be now visible in the RSD Lite tool

Press Start

The phone will reboot 1-3 times while the downgrade process. DO NOT unplug it

When its done, you can apply the same method as in PART 1
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] DarkPotato:
If Im correct then the Telus MotoMilestone requires a different method to root?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dsixda:
I would update your Telus Milestone to 2.1 and then use the Part 2 method. That will work.

EDIT: The Telus 2.0.1 method requires you to flash the Brazilian 2.0.1 SPF, and then do the rest of Part 1. I would not recommend that.

However, I have a nandroid backup of a Telus 2.0.1 stock, if you ever need to restore that.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ElCondor:
Nice work, if we keep the forum clean and add stickies like this, it will stay nice and clear.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
Telus 2.0.1 was also rootable by flashing the same rootable recovery only SBF. I did it and it worked. :)

Indeed though, the only way back to Telus 2.0.1 is by nandroid, not SBF. But you'd have to have a pretty good reason for wanting 2.0.1 over 2.1.

Technically the Nexus one cannot get full hspa+ speeds. It will see a bump, but will never go over 7.2 or really even come close to it. The limit is 7.2mbps downlink.
