Hey,

When I plug my phone into the Mac, it is recognized and iphoto opens up, but under the "<MT3GS>" there are no photos showing.

My nexus one was awesome, plug it in and all the photos show right up in iPhoto.

Anyone have any ideas. Or, anyone not having any problems at all with iPhoto and it just works fine out of the box?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] OpenMinded:
this could work:

make a symlink to the camera folder

some how did not work for me (yet)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Ace42:
So the phone isnt detected as mass storage on macs then?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] xurizaemon:
No. Ace42 said that the phone is detected as mass storage, but that iPhoto doesn't find any photos to import from the storage device.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] neu242:
iPhoto doesn't sync with Nexus S

This didn't work for me on my Nexus S either. Bummer. Has anyone managed to sync Nexus S with iPhoto?

Update for Case #136869 - "HTC HD2 For Tmobile"

Dear Tony,

I'm not sure if we will be making a Defender Series case for this device at this time. The best thing to do would be to keep an eye out on the website or you can always email or call to see if we have any updates. If you have any questions, please let me know. Have a wonderful day!!

Thank you,

Katy

I do know we will be getting the cheaper Commuter case tho

Now that it's in the right spot (Thanks);

Now everyone get out there if you want a defender series and send them some e-mails and request this bad boy. The squeeky wheel get's the greese right? Be sure to ask for the US Model Defender series, if that's what you want!

Coming from BlackBerry, I have gotten worried several times already with my new Evo.

In my former Blackberry, also with Sprint, you sent me an email and before three seconds (specially on my Hotmail account) I would feel my Blackberry vibrating already. It was blazing amazing.

On my Evo, I have my email set to sync every 5 minutes, which is the max allowed by the settings. It's set for 5 minutes peak and not peak, and the 7 days of the week.

Last night at 11:30pm I received an email sent at 7pm. The time stamp on the email was 7pm, the email was received at 11:30pm. I saw it because I manually synchronized, otherwise..... This would have never happened with the BlackBerry (who own their own email servers, which have no equal, now I see).

4 hours 30 minutes is not acceptable. This is the worst example, but not the only one. Some of them took 2 hours, some 10 minutes, and about 75% are on time.

The sync is not working every 5 minutes as it should. It's like it just dies out. I have a strong 3G signal, so signal is not the issue.

My phone is still virgin (stock).

Exactly the same is going on with the Weather widget, it wasn't sync-ing, but now the sync settings grayed out on me. I can't even change the settings. The weather application works for me only when I manually sync, yesterday morning it was raining and there was a huge shining sun on my screen, so it's not accu---rate. This noon I still had a full moon on my screen.

I wonder what's going on.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] RTbar:
K9 mail brah
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
Thanks. Installing k9Mail now....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Techvir:
Did u try exchange settings ?

It should push mail s instantly..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
no, but I'll try... thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] parousia15:
Any change you use a gmail account? The gmail app sends a notification as soon as the e-mail is received, just like the blackberry. If not, perhaps you should forward your e-mails (from hotmail) to a gmail account and bypass the 5 minute syncing issue.

Also, if you're using a task killer, be sure you have your e-mails apps listed as "ignore" otherwise you might kill the syncing and automatic updating.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rdude:
To summarize:

- If you use Gmail use the Gmail app.

- If you use Exchange use the Exchange option in the Email app.

- If you use IMAP use K9 Mail.

All of the above options will give you push email that is pretty much instant.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Techvir:
email app in andorid has to be refined more, especially push and sync.

I do get into some issues at times, but with froyo , hopefully its going to be solved.

( so far the best sync option for email for me has been my jaibrokeb iphone . no flames please. i am not an apple fanboy and i have never used blackberry )
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
Hi, thanks. Yes, I have a gmail account but that''s the one I just created for the market application. I have had that Hotmail account for about 10 years or more... That one worked perfectly with BBerry. I installed K-9 Mail, which looks great but keeps logging error messages "server allows to log in only once every 15 minutes." I configured this to sync every minute, so I get 15 error messages before it works (syncs). At least the HTC stock mail doesn't have that problem.

I may need to switch to gmail..at least some of the email traffic. I have a task killer but it doesn't kill the mail application or any other system appl. Just flickr, Facebook, Amazon MP3...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
Thanks. With Exchange you guys mean an enterprise MS Exchange server, correct? which I don't have access to.

That's what I miss the most of my BlackBerry, the speed to get emails. I made tests with iPhones, Androids, and even Blackberry's on ATT and this Sprint BlackBerry was the best. Not even 3 seconds most of the time, using Hotmail.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Techvir:
Hotmail has recently released the exchange settings. U should try that
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
It keeps happening with this HTC stock email application. I have 3 different sorts of email accounts setup on it, and it seems that only the one on the foreground works, the other 2 in the background are asleep. If I get an email in one of those sleeping mailboxes, I don't even get a notification, led, nor sound, or anything. I just received an email from 7AM at this time, 1123AM, and just because I checked because I was curious, otherwise.... That prompted me to write this. Just out of frustration. One of those email accounts in the background is a Google account, and it didn't work. I will have to split them into different email applications according to the type of account, as suggested above. I have a strong 3G signal. It has to be something in the implementation. The task killer just kills those flickr, Amazon, Facebook, that's about it. It doesn't kill any system files. Not even google talk.

I'll keep investigating.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] baiatul:
Update

In case somebody has the same problem, I am tracking down what's going on here.

Definitely, the problem is caused by one process the Task Killer....is killing...

I'm very surprised. The tasks that are being killed are mostly HTC programs that apparently shouldn't affect the performance of MAIL and WEATHER, but it does. Probably, this is also affecting the other issue I have, the setting of location services being permanently turned off.

Now, which application is it, that is obviously being used by MAIL and WEATHER?

Could it be FOOTPRINTS? Could it be HTC Facebook? Could it be AMAZON MUSIC STORE? Could it be SPRINT NAVIGATION? Or Qik?

Basically, those are the processes being killed.

The way I found out was killing the killer, and restarting all these applications. All of a sudden MAIL and WEATHER started working as expected. Mail refreshes every 5 minutes.

Maybe by killing one of those "dummy" programs above, also kills a thread of hidden processes being used by Weather and Mail.

Interesting.

(maybe somebody knows about this already here or in another forum).

The SD card reader on my Kaiser broken and doesn't work... (H/W problem.)

Is there anyway to NAND without SD? My kaiser already HardSPL and I can flash the Android kernal with CustomerRRU.exe via USB. However, it seems SD card is needed to flash the 2nd part (Chief's flavor). Anyway to do this without SD?

Thanks1
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
As far as I know, once you go NAND you pretty much rely on a working SD card reader. What exactly is wrong with the SD card reader?

If you feel brave and have some soldering skills, you could try to open up your Kaiser and repair it. Most of the time when the SD card reader is broken, the solder joints are broken. Which is not a surprise since the only thing holding the SD card slot is the solder. The annoying problem is getting the protective plate off the card reader slot, if there is one.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] lssong99:
Thanks for the reply! My Kaiser seems got a broken flex cable or really serious problem since not only the SD doesn't work, yesterday the phone cannot even detect SIM card! Guess need to fix it one way or the other... Anyway thanks for your reply!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
I actually had a similar problem with another phone. Those tiny cables that run through the phone are extremely fragile. I was able to fix it by lightly sanding the connector with 2000 grit sand paper, and coating it with dielectric grease afterward. Even then, I still had to pull it out and push it in again a few times before the cable was working.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafrad:
Somehow I managed to get my phone to a state that it can no longer flash to the MISC partition. (I never could, actually).

This goes for flashing the mtd0.img file that is used to fix the USB/SD card problem, AND it prevents me from flashing the -eng.img file for the NAND unlock...

Output from shell:

/data/flash_image misc mtd0.img
mtd: MEMGETBADBLOCK returned 1 at 0x00000000 (errno=0)
mtd: not writing bad block at 0x00000000
error writing misc: No space left on device
/sdcard #

C:\...\EVO>fastboot flash misc mtd0.img
sending 'misc' (640 KB)... OKAY [ 0.351s]

C:\...\EVO>fastboot erase misc
erasing 'misc'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

An RUU update does NOT fix this (either the stock .1, OR the OTA .6 upgrade)

Re-rooting the device does NOT fix this.

Anyone have any suggestions? I would rather not go back to the sprint store... I might just ditch the phone :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafrad:
Just going to *bump*

If I mess around trying to flash the misc partition, it will eventually give me USB support again. I just have to catch it "right".

It does NOT, however, allow the NAND unlock to EVER write to the misc partition. that is still limited to not-working.

Seems the hardware was actually nerf'd... which prevented things from working properly in the first place.

Check page 3 for new patch

Hi All!

I make a dirty hack with liblights to make the hero use jogball blink instead of power light blink to bring attention or notification.

Please try it as you like, push it into /system/lib/hw with adb

adb remount
adb push lights.msm7k.so /system/lib/hw/

And also, you need to modify the init.rc to add following lines

chown system system /sys/class/leds/jogball-backlight/blink
chown system system /sys/class/leds/jogball-backlight/off_timer

Perhaps you can easily use my kernel and wlan.so for a quick test.

adb remount
adb push wlan.so /system/lib/modules/
adb push boot.img /cache/
adb shell flash_image boot /cache/boot.img
adb reboot

Please test it to check if it works or not and give me response.

I will post the source code what I did tomorrow.

the package can be download here:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rafi300:
Hmm... seems interesting.. any comments dev people.. whats this all about.. and how tor progress it in our ROMS.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shokkapic:
In VanillaEclair 4.0

"What doesn't work:

- trackball led"

In EzHero 3

"Features:

-Trackball LED- phone calls only ATM"

Basically, it will fix it (for both calls and sms, and maybe even other functionalities)

It means we will now have fully functional ROMs. Yay. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rafi300:
Yayyy,... :)

let me cook it in manually than in my ezhero 2.9 .. 3 is unstable
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
gonna try this out!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I am already using this for VanillaEclair 4.0 and it's not working :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shokkapic:
You're doing it wrong, maybe. :P

Also, I want my freekernel with Wi-Fi fixed and I don't want to wait until tomorrow :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rafi300:
hmm... does it reallly now work?

So,.. how do v try this.. just push the file to libs/hw and than flash the boot.img on our phones or what?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
Oops, it's work for me.

And here's the code, so that everyone can check an improve it.

unzip and replace the same file name in hardware/msm7k/ then recompile it to get the lights.msm7k.so

Please remember change the the init.rc in boot.img to make correct permission to

/sys/class/leds/jogball-backlight/blink

/sys/class/leds/jogball-blacklight/off_timer

their's owner and group should both be system, or else it won't work. it's very important.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
i think you are using different kernel so the jogball-backlight driver was not there? I use behaam's kernel source.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
I rewrite the code and now every notification except battery notice(still use speaker led) will light the trackball.

But it's very weird that all those blinking lights works only after an incoming call. so it must be some problem about track ball init. I need to analyst where the init code comes from.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sychie:
does this kernel have OC to some about 700MHZ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
Yes, max could be 710MHz, default min_freq is 352000, default max_freq is 633600.

it's base on my experience, some phone may not wake up slower than 352000, and some phone will freeze faster than 633600, so I set these as default values. you can use Overclock widget to modify it as you wish.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] docertabum:
it's working with Androbin CR4. However those blinks are very weak, hard to notice at daylight, could it be more intensive pls? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Only sort of working...

Thank you for your efforts.

The trackball only blinks once or twice and then quits so if your not looking at your phone when you get the notice it is kind of pointless, no?

The trackball should continue pulsing until you clear your notices... PWM pulses with a 5sec delay between pulses will have very little effect on battery drain.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] docertabum:
it's working perfectly fine with Androbin (blinking until you turn on the display)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hansmrtn:
Works great with ezhero and keeps blinking ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Ok... then I'll have to try again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Good work...

I got it working on my custom rom and kernel... but it still not quite ready yet.

Eg... when a call comes in the screen switches on while ringing but then if the call is missed it does not flash the jog ball after the call to indicate you have missed a call. Other notifications seem to work but only after at least one call as you pointed out in earlier posts.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] heyodee:
Yup, same thing. Flashes when calls comes in. Thats it. solution, Tasker + ASE
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Just ideas

After looking at the code and playing with my ROM... I think the LED is always working but the brightness value is not always good.

This might be why it does not work until the first call because the brightness is at 0 and after a call the brightness retains the last PWM timer values so it gives your blink code a random brightness value.

Edit: I just verified this idea... the brightness is being set by the phone ringing and when the track ball pulses the value that is stops at will be the values your blink code will use.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
Hi, rbrucemtl & heyodee

There is an update in 2nd page, although it's an flash update package. you can use the lights.msm7k.so in side, I think the new one can solve your problem because I tried to make an init during boot.

but it's a dirty hack, so while booting, the trackball light will blink till booting process finished.

give it a try. please.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] witysimon:
OK, here's the newest on, increase the brightness and decrease the blinking freq.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krispijn_s:
Well, your new .so file seems to have fixed my lack of notifications. Before the ball only lighted up when receiving a call and nothing afterwards... now it just keeps blinking away... with gmail too. Nice one. :)

A suggestion: I believe there was a villainrom patch a long long time a go that made is glow rather than this fast kinda flicker, which I felt was kinda nice as it was more off than on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
That new update seems to work well on VanillaEclair 4.0 ! :D

The light lit up for MarketAccess and Calls, but still no SMS.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krispijn_s:
I'm using it on VE4 too, with the lokernel. I had to add the two lines (as posted by the OP) to the init.rc file though:

chown system system /sys/class/leds/jogball-backlight/blink
chown system system /sys/class/leds/jogball-backlight/off_timer

But I do have sms notification :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
It might be that, since my init.rc doesn't have those values in it. Can you tell me how to edit the file?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krispijn_s:
EDIT: I forgot that init.rc is a read-only file system.. .lemme figure out how to work with that.

EDIT2: I think you need to modify the boot.img for this to work. Not sure how to go about this, as I haven't got a tool chain for this atm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ArchaosAngel:
is there any other method besides adb? im not so familair with adb. thanks. is it possible to use terminal emulator?

it pulses once and done
