[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
So after reading the burn in thread and seeing the horror there.. and doing some general reading across the web.. I found out your not suppose to have your phone going for more than like 30 minutes at a time.... Which is ironic because part of the reason I have come to desire one as much as I do is I see my girlfriend use backflip more than she uses her laptop now.

While I do understand that it is probably not good for your eyes to use it as muich as she does.. and 30 minutes of straight use is a lot considering phone size..if I ever get into a serious game of robo defense I don't want to have to watch the clock and go "woops 29 minutes! time to let my screen rest!"

I really want a nexus one.. But, I really am worried about spending 529$ on a phone that I can't use the way I want without possibly damaging it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] St.Jimmy!:
I left my screen on all night long and, besides heat, no damage was actually done to the phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
No noticble burn in?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
The 30 min requirement does not matter if you use a black notification bar and also use launcher pro which hides the notification bar. The idea is you just don't want a static image in the same spot for hours.

I use my phone for hours at a time now with no problems.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Burn in can only happen if the image (or part of it) is completely static for a LONG time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
that works... Does launcher pro require root? or is it an app on the market? if on the market how much does it cost?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Market, free.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
Awesome, I think that covers all my major concerns :D

the fact that I'm somewhat A.D.D. is probably going to ensure nothing stays in one place to long and the launcher will make sure of that for what would otherwise be static images. Many thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmiller:
Where did this 30 minute rule come from? Doesn't sound too credible to me. As I understand it, burn in on OLEDs is caused by the gradual dimming of the display over time. This dimming is cumulative so it has to do with the total amount of usage of the display, not how long the display is used at any one time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
Someone was quoting that out of their manual I believe..

Seeing as I don't have an n1 manual I can't verify it or deny it.. however, I will say that 30 minutes is definitely a limited amount of time when you rely on a phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmiller:
I don't have a manual either, I don't think the N1 came with one. 30 minutes would be an absurd limitation especially considering that normal usage of the Navigation would result in much longer then 30 minutes of normal on time. I think the desk dock also disables screen timeout, so I can't imagine that being an official recommendation from Google.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
I ask this all of the time.. What are you people doing, staring at the launcher!?!?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
There are many apps around that doesn't hide the notification bar. I have some slight burn-in and I can assure you I don't stare at the launcher all the time heh

If I remember correctly Google navigation doesn't hide the notification bar either.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnie93:
i use my phone as a phone and some web/gaming, I didnt notice anything..Whats burn in anyway?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
@johnnie93

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_burn-in

although you may be better off not looking for it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnie93:
Thanks, i didnt have time to search since i have alot of work.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
no problem.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
You can use your device longer than 30 minutes with no issues. The problem is using it with the stock white notification bar. This causes burn in. Switch to a black bar and feel free to use it for hours with zero burn in:-)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
android should allow for cutomization of the notification bar, this seems to be the only that cant be customized, its always white and always the same.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Agreed, and understood. But the post I was responding to was talking about hiding the notification bar in Launcher Pro. :)

I've been begging Waze to hide the notification bar, because that IS something I run a lot with high screen output..
[Android Themes] Jaa-Yoo:
Have objects in the wallpaper change perspective as you scroll your screens left or right. Like in this vid for example.

See how all the hills in the back scroll at different rates to help give that 3D depth perspective? It would be nice to have objects (like the turtles and shrooms) moving in the foreground too.

I actually want a live wallpaper that looks just like super mario bros wii, with moving backgrounds and all. :o
[Android Themes] Brian_Fr:
It's hard to develop, hard to play with, and icons and widget won't help you to play. The best solution is to download a super mario bross game in the market, I don't know if it already exist but it should ;)
[Android Themes] Jaa-Yoo:
A game is not what i want, i want a live wallpaper that looks like the game, if you know what i mean? I want no interaction with it beyond the change in perspective when i scroll between screens. :)

It doesnt have to be mario bros either, it can be anything where the objects on the wallpaper scroll at different rates to give that change in perspective.
[Android Themes] jayzusfk:
It's called parallax scrolling. It's already in some LWPs like Silhouette but not quite in the way you're referring to.

So, yeah it definitely could be done, but as far as I'm aware hasn't yet.
[Android Themes] Jaa-Yoo:
Parallax Scrolling... cool, thanks. :)

I just found a live wall paper that appears to use it, MaryJane, from the marketplace.

The leaves in the foreground and middleground move independantly of each other and from the background as well. Looks really cool... if you dont mind the type of leaves being used.

Now, if only someone would make one that mimics mario bros wii. :)
[Android Themes] jayzusfk:
Yep. The MaryJane LWP is from the same group that did Silhouette.

The parallax scrolling technique was used heavily by Nintendo back in the day, as well as the PC demoscene. I'm willing to bet they pulled it out for SMB Wii as a sort of homage to the oldschool days.

Anyways, I vote that YOU start working on a LWP featuring PS in the SMB style (holy initialisms). The concept is simple enough. :)
[Android Themes] dskyers:
thats how you play mario
[Android Themes] Jaa-Yoo:
I have no coding experience and wouldnt know where to start. :p

Someone just released a sweet live wallpaper with mario playing in the background... not exactly what i wanted, but still pretty cool. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] whitenoiz:
I have an HTC Magic running Android 1.6

I would like a newer version, 2.1 or 2.2, however I am aware that Vodafone AU will not be releasing any updates.

Could anyone please point me in the right direction to get a ROM upgrade?

Please bear in mind I am new to this and do not wish to brick my phone!!

Thanks :)

Steve.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] whitenoiz:
By the way... I am now downloading the official HTC Magic ROM with Sense using a serial number posted in these forums.

Given this is not strictly for my phone, although it is still an HTC Magic, will this ROM work? Is this safe to install?

A long time left on my download before I can give it a try...

Thanks, Steve.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ryan556:
Update

Hi there,

did you get anywhere with this? How did it go? I am in the exact same boat as you, but am not sure how to go about it since htc dont provide an update for the Vodafone branded devices. I believe this is because of the Google logo on the back, and google thinks we shouldnt have sense if it has their logo on it.

Anyway, if you could let me know how you went with it that would be great.

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stu-k:
A few people have bricked their phones doing that, not a good move.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] SiL3nTKiLL:

The box, and the skeleton key are both movies related to TV shows like twilight zone and tales from the crypt but with hotter women leads.

Loved Serenity but the marketing of it was not up to the movie itself. It should have been a blockbuster.

I had no idea that firefly existed before I watched serenity, was a little confused!#

But after watching that, and then watching again, it made for very good entertainment. Definately would recommend it to most people.

(Random side note - I used to play a game called EVE, I thought there were a few, not loads, of similarities between the two.)

If you're into reading films, I enjoyed "La Haine" as well, but that is getting on a bit now.

[G1 Android Development] Artifex14:
I would first like to thank the following dev's for their hard work and dedication to the android community:

bcrook, Firerat, klothius and dumfuq!!!and and and....:D

Hey everyone here's a new ROM based on a lot of ROM based off New Hero 2.1 dump (based on official taiwan hero 2.1 dump!)

Now, this rom is beta, I know there will be problems with it that I will fix with your help! I hope it will works!

If you have any issues, suggestions, or things you would like to see in later versions of the rom, please refer to this page and post your hearts out. Click here .

Guide :

1 : Wipe data, dalvik-cache, sd ext, battery stats (You can try without wipe, but I don’t recommend)

2 : Set a swap on your sd card using Amon_RA’s recovery (96Mb is perfect for me and I have a Mytouch 3G)

3 : Set an ext partition, then ext2 to ext3, then ext3 to ext4 !!

4 : Flash update !

Recommendations:

1 : Disable the keyboard vibration for best performance when Text Messaging and sending Emails.

2 : Wait 10 min before starting to use HTC assistant!

3 : If you would like to create a backup for this rom, please use a BART backup because the ROM will not boot when you restore!

(You have to do this because the nandroid backup doesn't backup the cache partition!)

Downloads:

Download the latest version from the Release Database ([URL="http://www.androidspin.com/"]androidspin.com).[/URL]

Or see HERE, to see if it got an older version!

What works:

HTC apps

3d gallery

full screen weather preview

Market

Wifi

GPS

G-Sensor

Youtube HQ

FriendStream

Exchange

Does this look like a legend with the updated sense e.g. the look of widgets and friend stream?

yes!

Is the sense in this rom themed 'old' hero or 'new' legend style?

I am not asking if it is hero or legend because we all know it is hero BUT is it themed legend shiny or hero dull?

If it is hero dull could you please theme it with the new shiny sense? If you are unsure of how to make a hero rom 'look' like a legend rom, ask zack, he did it to his hero rom.

to me too :( I tried to figure out why (logcat) but didn't find the problem.

Partition layout on sd is fat,ext4,swap (196).

But when i'm at settings/apps/services at the bottom it says 0+20. in kings legend rom i got there something like 15+15. I installed AutoMemory Manager free (had this app on kings rom, too) but unfortunately it doesn't help.
[G1 Android Development] :
I'm going to Flash. Right when I saw LWP, I was like YEAH! Also, if you guys think the ROM is slow, Reboot, and let it sit for a good 10 - 15 minutes. If it Force Closes however, then you have to let it sit again which is the bad thing. Always worked for me when I was on CR_Slide. Good luck.
