This is one awsome script!!!
[Click Android Development] TheSSJ:
Why is it only for Linux & Mac? if you need windows binaries of fastboot and adb I can give them to you...;)
[Click Android Development] 42turkeys:
1. Windows users have HTC's Official ruus which are better.

2. I don't know half of the commands I need to make it work.

But I will do an hboot flash version when I have the download script running. Does anyone know the windows equivalent of 'wget'?

Working on mac? Only have exe-file.

Hey,

i hope that anybody can help me with my problem.

Unfortunately I'm a newbie to all this. I just rooted my desire and want to revoke it now in order to get the OTA-froyo update.

So I downloaded OpenRUU and the RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1211104_Radio.exe.

Can anybody please explain to me how to get an zip-file out of the exe and afterwards how to tell openruu to use this file for updating?

Thanks a lot,

Mali

Source code for binary files

Hi - any chance you could share the source code for the binaries included in the zip file?
[Click Android Development] 42turkeys:
If you mean adb & fastboot, they are part of the Android SDK which is open source.

This is great! Too late for me but this will help others a bunch. Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bagpipes88:
Are you sure you can take any RUU and just use this to flash to a Hero??? I'm not exactly sure it's that easy......
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 42turkeys:
Yeah, you run the ruu in wine and then the script finds the zip and flashes it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bagpipes88:
I'm just not following..... What if we took a 2.2 RUU for the EVO? Wouldn't this be the holy grail of porting ROMs???? That's what I'm getting at. It would almost have to be a Hero RUU
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
The RUU has to be compatible with the phone you are using. Putting an Evo RUU on a Hero would cause it not to boot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bagpipes88:
Maybe he shouldn't have said that in his post then.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thatguythatdid:
There always has to be one
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abcdfv:
No, he should have said that. You're either misreading it or taking it out of context.

He said "Works with any device" not "Works with any RUU"

Someone with an Evo could use this to flash an Evo RUU, someone with a Nexus could use it to flash a Nexus RUU.

[Droid Eris Android Development] jessebwallace:
Guys, I've been searching but can't find the answer or if there is a fix.

I am aware that apps have broken webviews on the Eris, or at least mine does (using Ivans).

A couple questions:

Is this rom specific?

Is there a fix for it?

Thanks! If there is a definitive answer on another thread for this, let me know. Maybe I was using the wrong term.
[Droid Eris Android Development] thenestor:
Sounds like you need to upgrade to the newer version of that ROM. Anything based on the newest software release (2.36.605.1) has working webview, so you can see pictures in Gmail, reviews in Urbanspoon, etc.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jessebwallace:
Actually, that is my ROM version on Ivans. Thats weird.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usajlh:
Ever since I updated to Froyo (FRF50 then 72 and now 80), my gallery performance has been dreadful. The gallery app will usually sit with a blank background for a few minutes without loading pictures. Other times it shows the folders but doesn't show thumbnails of pictures inside. I've deleted most of the pictures thinking I might have had too many but this hasn't helped.

The problem also manifests itself when I try to view a picture I just took. When I touch the thumbnail to view the previous picture taken, it usually takes 20+ seconds to load the picture.

I know the gallery app has many problems already (slow, dithering, etc), but this severely reduces the utility of my phone. Anyone else have this problem?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
Your not the only one
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
The gallery app needs to be cleaned up. It feels like a Beta.

The peak option is inaccurate, the Picasa albums are never consistent , the loading times are laughable considering the post JIT abilities.

Its nice they went to Cooliris for help but even on desktops there stuff is bloated and often choppy. They have better ideas than coders.

Still the best looking app in the mobile market outside of the ipad. But its nowhere on the same planet as fast or smooth. Even with downgraded quality its still cant hang.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andythefan:
I also experienced the same issues listed above. I really hate taking a picture and then going to the gallery to look at the picture I just took just to have to wait 10+ seconds for the picture to load. This is really embarrassing when iPhone users are around.

I like that the compression seems better for the images in the gallery, but I don't know if it is worth waiting an extra couple seconds.

Does anyone else have any issues with pinch to zoom on the gallery? Namely when you pinch and leave your fingers there the picture seems to "float" and continue to scroll even if your fingers aren't moving.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usajlh:
It's especially bad since I also have an ipad, and working with pictures on it is nothing short of spectacular. It never bogs down no matter how many pictures I've got on it. The multitouch tracks not only enlarging the picture but panning, all at the same time.

I've taken to using JustPictures! instead of the gallery app until they fix it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbkkt1:
Honestly, the gallery is super fast after upgrading from 2.1 to frf83.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mi|enko:
Beg to differ. Have a few hundred images on a class 10 card. Never had a problem loading the album on eclair but with FroYo it takes forever. . .and, when I scroll through the images, it forgets ones it already loaded.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
Hence my pessimism.

They made it worse with Froyo. Who knows when the hell theyll get around to fixing it.

Should we find an open ticket on codes.google and the help forum and draw attention to it ?

((tried just pictures...No MT and really laggy when scrolling..is this your experience ?...looking for other MT galleries.))
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbkkt1:
seriously, Mine is fast, and the camera is snappy too. When I switch angles on the camera, the screen is instantaneous too.

here is a youtube of my gallery:

[YOUTUBE]vtr4_87qSgg[/YOUTUBE]

it was way slower on eclair for me.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnie93:
I think it makes a difference if you had a class 6 or class 2
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherryapple:
Same issue for me (FRF50 then 72 and now 83), I have a class 6 SD-Card.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lou2s:
Same here, used to be nearly instant with 2.1update1, now I hv to wait for it to "loading new albums and photos". I just wanna see the pic I've just taken! Or just a glance of a jpg file from the file manager!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbkkt1:
Yeah but I don't know the difference between the 2 .

I can just say that my gallery is faster with froyo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmanxx:
On FRY83.

Before i tried to mess with the folders with photos/videos and trying to add ".nomedia" into the folder to reduce loading time..

After above action..the loading time getting worst..from 4-5 sec (see icon folder) to a minute of blur background screen .
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaapschaap:
I deleted a lot and that helped :P

BTW biggest pic on froyo i've seen is 3,9MB i thought it was like 2/3MB before...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millowster07:
I don't notice the gallery problem posted, but I do notice the camera app at night seems to show red and blue lines. When I was in Orlando I took a night shot of the Disney castle months ago and then again just recently with froyo it turned into ****. Any place there was supposed to be just night sky (black) it showed lines during viewing in and after the camera snapped the pic. I will upload pics in a few min. to show.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millowster07:
The red castle was before froyo

The Blue just recently with froyo

Its hard to see on my laptop but very visible on my n1 and my laptops lcd.

It also does not happen with anything else on my n1 just in the camera mode and the pics it takes at night.

Here is how my N1 w/ FRF83 loads the gallery even with minimal pictures, it still seems like it got hung up a bit.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velenox:
I'm on FRF50 and i have another problem.

When pinch zooming the photo move around, I don't know how explain, but before the manual update, i was able to pinch zoom without problem, now is imposssible, because when i put two fingers on the screen the photo start moving up/down/left/right, and become worst if i try to zoom.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
That is weird.

Ill have to dig up pics pre-froyo to compare.

The other vid with the start up hang is what gets me. Is the OS rescanning everytime open the app ?

Also on Picasa pictures I notice a weird screen door effect on all my pics. It goes away when zoomed but the single pic view zoomed out I get weird screen door effect.

I feel like the Gallery app loads its 3D/UI everytime it loads then goes to pics making some of us feel that lag while the OS loads up the extras before showing us our pics.

Oh and Ipad gallery is insanely ahead of anything else.

N1 imo does have the second best mobile gallery. But the issues it has make it a distant second. Again..feels like a great app in Beta.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lou2s:
On my phone's SDCARD/Android/data/com.cooliris.media/cache/ there are 286 files occupying 59.7MB. Do u think clearing this folder will help? (As we all know cooliris is the one which made the gallery app)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mi|enko:
Think you hit the nail on the head. Cleared mine and things have noticeably improved.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
Thats odd...Did you have alot of changes ?

Meaning was it full of old thumbnails of pics that were no longer present ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbkkt1:
mine does this sometimes, but it will go away, if I close, and reopen the gallery.

Also, I noticed, that I had many little cracks on my camera lens (battery door), I have emailed htc for a replacement, but if not, i might get this instead:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
I cleared the cache as well and the load time to view pics is way faster than before. Like the others have said, it would take like 10 secs to load up a pic I just snapped. Kinda sucky when my 3rd gen itouch can view pics faster.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherryapple:
I deleted around 500 MB (!) from my cache folder and it helped ... NOT :mad:

This sucks a lot. Even for viewing local Pictures on my SD-Card I need a network connection :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus312:
Just updated to FRF91 and Gallery seems quick again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velenox:
No, nothing. With eclair i had no problem while pinch-zoomming in the gallery app, now as i put two finger on the scree the image start sliding, if i open the fingers the image zoom and move around.

Am I the only one with this problem?

Pinch-to-zoom works fine in the browser.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velenox:
Well another guy have the same problem after upgrading to froyo.

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=3e1694ebcff25ab6&hl=en
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvnitycker:
Yup very slow for me too.

It sometimes takes 15+ seconds to sharpen the image once you open it (it's blurred at first). It's actually quite embarassing when I'm supposed to show some pictures to my friends, knowing that the phone costs 500 euro.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazichinaman:
Just cleared mine running frf 91 and I cleared up around 1200+ files and around 117+ mb. I noticed that there is a slight change in time.

What usually took around 15+ seconds for the picture to be viewed after being taken has now cut down to 4 seconds. IE: Take pic, click on the icon in the corner . Moreover, it takes around 20 seconds after taking the picture thumbnail shows up in the gallery. I am running a Class 6 8 gig kingston micro sd card.

It was better on 2.1 :confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
ARRGGH!!

Happened to me recently. Took a pic wanted to show someone..........waiting........waiting.......loading....blurry......finally!.. "whys it so slow" is what I heard :(

Damn Gallery app has been such a downside whether its the low quality or the lag.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherryapple:
After a Wipe, the Gallery runs as it should be.

No more slowness for me :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattpannella:
bumping this to see if theres been any solutions yet

my gallery is ridiculously slow, and i have the zooming issue too

i cleared that cache folder and maybe it got a tiny bit faster? i think it's just a placebo effect though

stock 2.2 rooted
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuberio:
Bump .... any news?

What would you recommend as an alternate until the stock gallery app gets out of "beta" (if ever)?

I've got Large Image Viewer that loads things nice and fast + allows full zoom.

Sweet THANKS
[Desire General] BlackLine7:
Actually it was my mom who dropped it and the Desire got it TO THE FACE!!!

I have now 3 pretty big scratches on the aluminium plate, near the power button...

Any idea how to fix that? This is the first time I dropped (actually it wasn't me) my Desire... right into concrete! Ooo how I hate my mom now...

Can't post pics, coz I don't have all my other phones with me... on holyday right now.
[Desire General] snear:
I've done the same thing,got a case that covers the scratch but I'm still gutted :(
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
The best way to remove sratches is with " Brasso " its for cleaning copper and metal but it is a light abrasive that buffs scratches out or plastic and metal really well.

Just be careful when using as it can get a bit messy, only us a tiny bit.

Good Luck

R:eek:
[Desire General] BlackLine7:
Thanks for the reply!

Will try Brasso when I get home... I hope it will fix it, but I doubt it will remove the scratches, coz they are pretty bad :(
[Desire General] al89nut:
I think it's plastic not aluminium
[Desire General] MadMic:
When I dropped mine the top corner of the faceplate dented inwards so I'm pretty sure it's metal... as for buffing out the scratched with Brasso, if they're on the faceplate by the buttons as you said I dont thing Brasso (or any other rubbing polish / compund) will help as all this will do is REMOVE the paint / covering. You need to be adding back not taking away - see if you can find a modeling shop they might have some similar coloured pain that you could cover the scratchs with...

Just a thought without seeing the marks...

I did the same as snear and got a plastic cover from Amazon - they were £4 for 3 (DEAL!) and will take most of the abuse in a drop situation - I hope!
[Desire General] al89nut:
If it is metal, try the wax compounds that car accessory shops sell to fill in scratches
[Desire General] East Upper Gooner:
Try some super resin polish sold by autoglym, this will fill in the scratch but it wont remove it.

[HD2 General] speoples20:
Its not bricked if you can boot into the bootloader. It would only be bricked if you can boot into the phone or the bootloader. Sounds like a bad battery if it won't stay turned on when plugged in. You could try doing a hard reset see if it was a program you installed.

Hello everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to have “Rosetta Stone” the language learning software running on HTC Rhodium: Touch Pro2, Tilt 2. I am currently trying to learn Tagalog spoken in the Philippines. I would be very thankful if someone can help me out on this. I am never home since I am a part time student and working full time so this would help me out greatly. If someone can help me out I would be very thankful and as a promise I will buy you a drink :cool:

I have tried converting software to convert language files (but I don’t know where to ever start)

I have searched online but majority of the post were at least 2 year old and did not help at all.

I have Rosetta stone on my PC which downloaded form torrents and it is installed but I have to use Power ISO. To mount the language CD and then study.

Also I am a noob therefore detail guide would be greatly appreciated thank you very much.

Someone please help me out!!!!!!!!:(

Thank you everyone in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
