[Android Software Development] Fulkerson:
A good compiler will optimize away much unnecessary code. GCC will for example if told to put (properly made) function calls inline so your method of doing lookups is in reality worse. It'll make code cluttery, hard to maintain and no better performing.

Of course using a vm will have a negative impact on performance compared to perfectly written and built C code but this is for obvious reasons very seldom possible. The speed of developing is oh so much faster using OOP than true procedural programming. Even java is way to clunky many times. It does not matter that code that is ran once or twice or trice is twice as many instructions it could be. Profiling the application and using good algorithms is were gains can be made and all of the sudden the easily replaced oop code is alot more efficiant approach than just sitting down and take the easy route.
[Android Software Development] androidworkz:
There is no way to code in java that is procedural that I can think of... every file is a class with methods and properties. You have no choice but to code using OOP.

procedural = garbage anyway.

Yes... you are wrong. :) The reason being that each method or property is a different memory address essentially... and the more code you have in each address the slower the program.
[Android Software Development] danslo:
@OP,

If you have a bunch of small & simple functions that are related to eachother that you want to call from all over your application, you may want to make it a pure static class. That way you won't have to initialize an object. That being said though, if you want to get into serious java/android development, you are best off learning some OOP principles anyway. At the very least things like inheritance, RAII, factories, etc.

There is no correlation between OOP-ness of a language and its speed.

That's why the linux kernel (android!) was written with a procedural language, right? ;)
[G1 General] Jasper9080:
Running Cyanogens mod.

Last week I awoke to my G1 not seeing the SD card. After much fiddling with it it started seeing it again. 2 things that are now messed up, all my apps need to be reinstalled (no biggie) AND the download notifications, while they will clear when I hit "clear" keep coming back. Usually after any kind of data connection, GPS, internet, market etc...

I have 11 notifications and counting even on apps I uninstalled.

Any ideas?

TIA
[G1 General] Jasper9080:
Ok, I figured it out after some more Googling.

It was a browser cache issue. After uninstalling the ones I didnt need and clearing the cache for the 2 I did the notifications disappeared.

Its all good now :cool:

i also uploaded a video of the sense version running till bsod on my youtube

I ended up back on the XDandroid version because there are just too many errors on the Sense rom and the lag on the live wallpaper was annoying

The new video should be up before Saturday, Just got home from the beach, and still have alot of other videos to work with. If yall are fine with iPhone 3GS video then I'll make one soon. If not, then just give me couple days, maybe by then, we'll have a better kernal and Android Build.

FYI I would put a big disclaimer that there are still alpha quality. Some people have had to hard reset to get winmo back the way it was -- though tbh I'm not sure what builds they were running.

It's not that winmo didn't work, it just had some strange functionality afterwards.

I have an AWS Nexus One at the moment. Suppose I were to obtain the UMTS 850/1900 version as well.

If I take a nandroid backup from the AWS phone and restore it to the 850/1900 phone, will it bugger up because of the different 3G frequencies? Or is the firmware designed to work properly with both hardware variants?

You just touch to focus on what you want. Here is a pic I took recently:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Axefield:
You can find it when you open camera app and go to Settings->Focus Mode, there you can choose between Auto focus, Macro and Face detection. I bet this is in the user manual as well. ;)

I'm pretty sure its possible i just don't know if anyone is actually working on creating an app for it though
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] IceCreaMan:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Zori:
I would love this it was such a great feature on my touch pro I'm surprised it's not on the evo I thought all htc phones had em considering hd2 got it. Pc36100? Evo? D:
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ricoo25:
Yep, I moved over from the touch pro also and really miss that feature. I used it all the time. There has to be something out there for panoramic pics.

I have 2 yahoo accounts and another school account that I would use the mail app for. Gmail works great. I have tried the SlideM rom and now im using the Slideme rom and the problem still persist. does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? any way to fix this?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlacsamana1989:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hqpp:
Thank you conantroutman, I think you're right. I googled and realised that tweak will cause the phone processor to corrupt the system files. Guess I have no choice then. Was hoping if someone would point a way to extract datas from the phone, sms and mms in particular. I'm an architect, so I get mms pictures from constuction site and text messages reporting progresses from various site daily, losing it means I'm doomed.

[Desire General] ortonnorth:
Despite a great job done by our beloved developers to bring up Android 2.2 on the HTC Desire, some of us (incl me) will miss 2.1 with HTC Sense UI.

Guide below shows how to quickly and easily revert that change.

IMPORTANT: You will need your GOLD CARD to avoid "Error 131. Customer ID error".

If you formatted your GOLD CARD or haven't got one please find the complete guide how to create it on the

Forum/HTC Desire/Desire Android Development/[TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) and create a new one.

Be patient! Either options takes approximately 10 minutes to reflash your Desire.

There are two ways to downgrade 2.2 to original HTC's 2.1:

From your mobile using Micro SD card

Go to: http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/

Download your Desire's *.zip ROM file on the PC(I couldn't find *.zip one on XDA site)

Rename downloaded file to PB99IMG.zip

Insert your Micro SD card with GOLD CARD on it to your phone or card reader

Copy ROM file to that Micro SD card

Insert your Micro SD card with GOLD CARD and PB99IMG.zip ROM file to your Desire

Press "Back Arrow" button and "Power" button to start BOOT LOADER

Wait until your Desire will recognize HTC ROM and press "Volume UP" button to confirm the installation

Press "Volume UP" again to reboot

Done :D

From the PC

Insert your GOLD CARD Micro SD card to your Desire

On the PC download your ROM *.exe from

Forum/HTC Desire/Desire Android Development/[ROM] Official HTC Desire RUU ROMS and OTA Update URLs

Connect your phone to your PC over the USB cable

On the phone select HTC Sync for USB connection type

Start downloaded HTC *.exe ROM loader

Follow the instructions

Done :D

Your Desire should reboot after that and boot up normally with HTC logo.

Now you can remove your GOLD CARD and replace it with the Micro SD card you using for your stuff.

In my case 2nd option didn't work but hell knows why.

GOOD LUCK!!!
[Desire General] Konradwalsh:
Why all this effort when you can just flash a .zip the same way you got to 2.2 in the first place?
[Desire General] Yopsi:
Lol that was to funny. :D
[Desire General] DomFel:
Geeez.. You just need to flash the .zip file as you did with the froyo rom. No need for that procedure!!

Lol

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] ortonnorth:
Not without the Gold Card as far as I'm aware.

I've tried that but stuck on Error 131.

So I've just tried to make an easy guide for "noobs" like me.

Trust me it wasn't easy to work it out even after some time spent on browsing XDA forum resources.

But if there is an easier or other way to do that please post a link to the guide for me.

And sorry for spamming the forum if that issue was already discussed.

Thanx. ;)
[Desire General] Yopsi:
The Same way you flash a 2.2 rom, u can flash a 2.1 stock official rom.
[Desire General] qubz:
Reverting back to 2.1 from 2.2 is as simple as flashing a 2.1 zip. I think the OP may be referring to un-rooting and reverting back to 2.1.
[Desire General] ortonnorth:
As I've mentioned that above, I've tried that but stuck on 131 error using HTC Rom. For some reason Gold Card was required even with XDA app. Since I went to 2.2 my handset was reflashed f

ew times and I never need to use gold card again. But for some reason this time was different and handset refused to flash HTC Rom without that damn gold card. But thank you for your all advice. Have a good night!
[Desire General] lpachuong:
You need to wipe, otherwise u will get stuck.
[Desire General] Scann69:
Just wondering but after you flash back to 2.1, can u download the OTA update which is some 27mb plus and install it?

In my case I restore my 2.1 Rom via Rom Manager app. All went well but the OTA update just won't install :(

Any advice?

Sent via my Desire
[Desire General] Jagdish84:
You talking bout the 1.21 ota update?!

just download it via this forum and install it manually will spare you the HBOOT and radio upgrade...
[Desire General] Scann69:
Yeah....was told to do just that but it's giving some verification failed error. Oso...wipe is a must? Cos I already installed my apps :p was hoping to just update without having to wipe my device & start all over.

[Desire General] Ajthescot:
wow thats a lot of effort i have tried every froyo rom on this board and never had to do all that.

i dont usualy keep the froyo roms on for more than a couple of hours .

i like the sence ui to much and just simply wipe and flash back .

on the odd ocassion i may get stuck in a boot loop. which is easily fixxed with a repartion of the sd card.

.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Alternatively, just restore the Nandroid backup you should have made prior to flashing a 2.2 ROM! :)

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] trion:
Or just flash a zip of a nice custom 2.1 rom with apss2sd.

Had no problems going back and 2.1 gives me mutch better battery live.

Waiting for 2.2 with sense and good batterylive :)
[Desire General] Scann69:
Which 2.1 rom with sense would you recommend based on your experience? I seem to also like the sense UI better.
[Desire General] Nutsonfire:
I use the Pays 2.0 ROM with App2sd, UV and OC. It's really good, I don't even have the impression I am using a custom ROM.
[Desire General] pulpoff:
Dude!!!!

[Desire General] Ajthescot:

[Desire General] danbst:
Of course it's horses for courses, but Sense UI is no great shakes. I'm not over keen on the big fat ugly widgets, I'd rather have a small launch icon (and therefor more on screen). Launcher Pro on 2.2 does the trick very nicely for me.

Having had an initial battle with my contacts obviously not working with HTC sync anymore I soon got over it with Facebook/Google sync. Haven't looked back since.

Anyhow, as most folks have pointed out, the original post for the majority of us it seems is very much redundant. I've swapped between 2.1 and 2.2 many times just using Rom Manager with no additional steps needed. I do have a gold card somewhere but it's not been used since the original Root.

All the same it will possibly come in handy if anyone finds themselves in the same boat as you so fair play to you for taking time to post it. :)

Hello, I'm kind of new..but I've pretty much lurked around this website for sometime before I finally decided to join the forums. I've been trying to find a link via the website, but I wanted to know the possibility of downloading Manila/Sense 2.1 or 2.5 to my T-Mobile Touch Pro 2.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be awesome.

The stock rom for the TP2 is sense 2.1. If you want a sense 2.5 interface, i'd recommend a custom rom.

Hi everyone,

I sent my HD2 in for repairs but an incompetant repair shop ripped up the back of my HD2 and tore the "flat strip" underneath the battery:

http://img96.imageshack.us/i/htchd2wificam2.jpg/

The image above shows what I'm talking about, its a flat orange-ish strip with squares on it.

Is this a replacable part, and if so where can I acquire one?

I have now sent my HD2 in for repairs at HTC and apparently they need to replace the "MB" which I assume is the motherboard...that is BS as far as I'm concerned and the only damaged thing is that orange strip which is torn.

However, I can't seem to unroot the broken phone because one of the steps requires me to press the UP volume button.
