So I download Swype on my SD card and installed it using ES File Explorer and it was able to successfully install it. How do I activate it now?

ScummVM - for playing some old point and click adventure games - like The Secret to Monkey Island

You can get the "official" release at http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/

However, there are other releases from other people that have tried to improve what was already "officially" done here: http://anddev.at.ua/search/?q=scummvm

aDosBox - for playing old DOS based games. It installs, but unfortunately does not work with our phones because it requires a hardware keyboard right now. Hopefully, some exposure here though will inspire someone to improve it as the source is available below.

You can get it here: http://androiddosbox.appspot.com/

[Desire General] stewcp:
Does anyone know how to get google calendars to sync events 1 year plus? currently only recurring events sync past 1 year, but not individual events :(
[Desire General] none88:
You are lucky. I have only 6 weeks back.

How did you enable 1 year?
[Desire General] stewcp:
Mine has always sync'd +/- one year... no settings seem to be available to change this, so not sure why you have less... I need two years!
[Desire General] numloxx1978:
I have this issue too... have calendar events going back 2-3 years, and recently I can only sync 6 weeks on my Desire. Google Calendar shows all my events going back to 2009.
[Desire General] numloxx1978:
Hi all,

Found a method that did the trick for me.

Turn Auto and background sync off.

Delete data for Calendar and Calendar Storage.

Change date to something like 1 Jan 2009.

Turn sync back on.

After a few minutes it will resycn all calendar data.

Change date back to auto :)
[Desire General] theliquid:
With a custom app you can sync in any range .... I use "Business Calendar".	Definitely better than the stock app !
[Desire General] carrot34:
Wow -- I'm shocked that there's no way to change the synced date range within Google's app.

[Desire General] numloxx1978:
I would use something else, but I like the HTC Sense Calendar app.

Will take a look at "Business Calendar" though.
[Desire General] Lasse-hatten:
How do you do that? The BC forum suggests using something like Synthesis syncML, and I've tried that, but I don't understand how to configure it.

I tried that business calendar but found if you store contacts birthdays then close app then open again it has deleted info not sure why because if you store it as pc sync they are ok.
[Desire General] UltraLinx:
I've installed Metamorph from the market but every time i start it up and do the checks it makes my phone reboot, i am clueless to what the problem could be.

I am rooted and using OpenDesire v1.3b ROM if that helps.
[Desire General] fxone:
At the Moment system write is only possible in recovery, but for metamorph you need write access in Android.
[Desire General] UltraLinx:
I don't have a clue what you're on about tbh, I'm a newbie so bare with me :o

Shall i uninstall it?
[Desire General] rolfd:
Metamorph need access to /system files to write to those files. It needs this while your phone is switched on and working as normal.

The Desire only allows write access to those files while it is in recovery mode. So MetaMorph will not work.
[Desire General] UltraLinx:
Ohhh ok, well thank you for the help.

I may as well uninstall it then.

Hey all,

I just wanted to see what most people were setting their scroll speed and desktop overshoot settings to with ADW launcher.

I like mine pretty smooth, but fast and not too bouncy.

Here are the settings that have been working well for me:

desktop scrolling speed: 1155

desktop overshoot: 27

BTW, this is my first thread here... I've been lurking for about a month, so "Hi!"
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sherman901:
I used ADW but found that I prefer LauncherPro. Sorry, can't really contribute to the thread, ha. But welcome to the forums!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] -shift-:
i'm still running a stock set up, although that will change tonight lol. how is adw launcher better than sense? i would just like to know your impressions on the differences. thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] PaydayJones:
There are some functional differences such as the ability to set the number of panels you have and being able to set a quick launch bar at the bottom for your 4 most used apps.

Then there are fun differences such as the "overshoot" which is when you swipe to the next screen the one you are going to looks like it's about to pass you by and then "springs" back in to place. Or that swiping up gets rid of the top task bar.

All in all I like it better than sense but the one thing sense brings that ADW does not (at least as far as my limited knowledge goes) is integration. Facebook contact pics and stuff like that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
I have experienced this with a previous android phone and the evo is acting the same way. I boot the phone up and wait for everything to load up and the system to settle down. Then i use a task killer to unload all the programs that insist on loading at startup. I will get like around 250mb of free memory. The longer the phone runs, the less memory I have available to use even after using a task killer later too. I've seen it go down to like the 180mb mark. A reboot fixes this. Can someone explain what is going on here?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjmovie:
Although it's possible, I'd personally say it's highly unlikely you're getting a memory leak outside of the application level. The linux kernel is fairly mature on this architecture and rather robust.

I don't know if it's still doing this (since it's a flash-based device and may not keep up the same kinds of caches as it would for a desktop), but generally linux reports memory used for caching as "in use". This memory isn't always being actively used, and is instead to keep things running fast if you were to re-use some portion of memory you accessed before. As soon as the memory is needed, the kernel gives it up to the program that wants it. It's normal for a linux computer to run with very little memory "free" as reported by task managers but to actually have a lot of memory that _can_ be free, if needed.

AFAIK, windows reports caches as "free" or doesn't keep caches nearly as large, and that is why it tends to free up more memory when closing applications on that system (both NT kernels and CE, I'd assume).

Basically - it's probably just cache to speed up your device. Besides, it doesn't seem like you're running low on RAM to start with :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
Ok. From what I gathered, it's kinda similar to windows but it's done a different way. If I understood your explanation, even though said task manager is telling you that you have x amount of free ram, its not necessarily all you have at your disposal. The os is holding or using some ram for it's purposes. If the computer is really running out of ram, then the system will release some that is reserved for whatever for the system to use. I guess they (linux programmers) are going about things differently than other os do. I'm probably trying to visualize this with a windows mentality and it's done differently than that. With the amount of free memory I have, even after having days of time, I don't need to worry about running out of RAM. Am I following you correctly?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajax1885:
Alright, I asked in the official thread itself and the best answer I could attain was that I should simply double down for a new phone. Nobody seems to be able to help me there. Wish so many other questions, I'm not surprised, though.

I've finally resorted to simply starting a thread in hopes of garnering assistance with my problem.

Now, on with the issue itself.

I cannot get, under any circumstances, Cyanogen 5.0.8 (the stable release) to boot. I can't get any of it's variants to boot, either. I meet every requirement, I've wiped everything with every option available to me and even manually typed in the commands for wiping Dalvik manually.

It just won't move past the T-Mobile G1 screen. At all. Under any attempts.

I'm on the DangerSPL.

I'm on the latest Radio.

I'm on Amon_Ra's latest recovery.

I simply don't get it. It doesn't make sense. I should be able to flash and boot.

I can go back to the latest Super E or Cyanogen's 5.0.7, but 5.0.8 just won't boot. I don't know what to do.

Any ideas what could be happening here? I'd really appreciate the assistance.

Thanks. :)

Haven't gone this route yet. giving it a go now. Thanks for the help. Hopefully it works. :)

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
So I made a cyan version of the Holiday Nexus boot animation and thought I'd share it here.

I uploaded both a bootanimation.zip to adb push to the system/media/ folder, and a update.zip (CyanHolidayBoot.zip) to flash through the recovery menu.

You can use the method you prefer.

Update: I made some other colors too.

The files named 'bootanimation.zip' should be adb pushed, and the 'ColorHolidayBoot.zip' files are flashable in the recovery menu.

Update 2: I've made a version ('ColorSmallBoot_480x256.zip') where the cross isn't scaled up and therefore are more crisp and clear but smaller.

The cross is about the size of the original Nexus One boot animation.

I just made zip-files that you can flash in the recovery menu. If you want the bootanimation.zip to push you can pull it out from the zip-file.

Also I made this all kinda quick and have only tried out the cyan version, so if there's something wrong with the files let me know.

Update 3: A new version that's rapidly flashing between cyan, yellow, green and yellow. Looks kinda sick and psychedelic haha

Update 4: Green Live Wallpaper and Boot Animation with a new look.

Full size picture comparison of the old look and new style and a full size .gif preview of the new style

Update 5: New Style boot animations and live wallpapers for all colors. (No live wallpaper for Flashing Colors version)

The live wallpapers was generated with the Custom Creater script.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739512

thanks Daneshm90

The regular size versions will look a little blurry on the phone because the pictures will be stretched out 4x the size there.

Try the small version or the new style version if you think it's too blurry.

Full size picture comparison of the old look and new style and a full size .gif preview of the new style

adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/
adb reboot

This is not a " cyanogen version" available on CM6 this is just a blue version like cyanogen
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
I didn't say it was the one in CM6 or any other CM version either. It was more meant like it kinda have the "Cyanogen feel" to it. But I changed to cyan version so there will be no misunderstandings.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
Which color are you trying? Are you adb pushing the file or flashing in the recovery menu?

Edit: Maybe you have installed a custom boot animation before in the /data/local/ folder? In that case remove that or rename it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] neok44:
okay, so i got this to work, but the quality is terrible. it's incredibly blurry and just looks really really bad. on CM 5.0.8
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
It's because there's something wrong with CM 5.0.8, have you tried it on 5.0.7? :b Nah, just kidding, but have you tried the original bootanimation?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=708171&highlight=bootanimation

It should be just as "blurry" as that one.

It have the same resolution 256x256 that is stretched out to 480x480, so of course it isn't that crisp. It's not that much I can do about it.

I guess they made it that way because it would be too big if the pictures was 480x480.

Personally I don't think it looks "terrible"

I've attached one that is more crisp, but smaller. Now it's in its original size. Try and see, maybe you like that one better.

I've also added small versions of all colors on first page.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ezangrando:
Much better this one, still a little laggy on CyanogenMod 6.0.0-alpha1, but probably it's a mod issue ;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
Yeah, I know. I think it's the same with the original version tho.

But the pictures are actually even a bit larger in the small version lol, so it could possibly lag even more.

Maybe if lowering the fps it wouldn't lag as much. But the animation itself would be slower then ofc. It's 30 fps now, maybe that's a little too fast for the phone to handle during the boot up.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ezangrando:
For me it's ok now :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] CentralMoNexusOne:
A combination of all the colors would be sick.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
Okay, that's good to know.

You mean like the animation shift between all those colors?

Edit: Haha, I threw togheter something. It's quickly flashing between cyan, yellow, green and red :D

Kind of an EPILEPSY WARNING on this one.

Maybe later I'll make one where the colors smoothly bend in to each other when shifting :b
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] k3vink3vin:
I am guessing he meant one colour at each corner? just like how the stock logo is.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:

[EVO 4G General] tformed:
haha, I was wondering how that was possible. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Rugged96:
okay--i've been struggling with this all week and I can't figure out what is doing this. It might be bluetooth but it could be something else.

As I understand it Wifi should turn off when I put the phone in standby. For the first half of today that was the case. then mysteriously, it stopped turning off and guess what, my battery usage disappeared.

I have checked my BsB tweak settings, it is not set to have wifi on in standby. I have checked my wireless connections to disconnect after 30 seconds. Although that probably only works if i am away from a wifi signal all together.

so what else do i need to do to switch it back to default--I don't want wifi on when it's on standby. At the least, i want to be able to toggle it like it's supposed to.

thanks for the help. Once i get this figured out I am pretty confident my battery usage will be good.
