What's so special about the flykernel?

I really want to know (never tried it). I've read the thread about it but it's so confusing...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fabulous691:
this kernel is a devil thing lol

I improve the battery consumption and the phone is more responsive, everything is more smooth

I use it with the 576/ 352 Mhz default settings and its perfect

Concerning the rom, i have integrated friend stream before flash, the apk and the widget, but can't see them in my widget menu on the phone...why...?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HoundDK:
Clockable

Can it be done?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fabulous691:
yes i done it, but it didn't appear in my menus....not in the apps....not in widgets
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rfgamaral:
Hum... I wish I could integrate FriendStream (and probable the News app) into my own custom ROM (Nebulae, which is based on this generic one). Anyone can help on that?

I have to try that kernel someday... One last question though, does it come in boot.img or just the kernel and it needs to be integrated into boot.img? I'm asking this because the ROM I'm using (once again, Nebulae) needs some changes to the boot.img file and I can't just replace the boot.img. Just asking, I know how to do it if I have to...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fabulous691:
i dont think i can give you any information on this...i just want to integrate friend stream.

So i need to modify the boot.img to do it, that's right?

I never understood what is the role of this file...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rfgamaral:
Uh? No... The boot.img thing was about the kernel talk, nothing to do with FriendStream.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PulpzillA:
the kernel is just an update.zip that you flash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joxerg:
Lots of thanks for this ROM! I was desperated reading about having to downgrade to 1.5, reinstall original recovery, update to 2.1, apply the htc update then rflashing the custom recovery to have the last update working!

down.... reupload?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Holy thread revival Batman!

I noticed that the ROM link in the second post is still working. Will that work for you?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rfgamaral:
Although I'm flattered by your choice, there are better and more recent ROMs out there for the Hero my friend :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Agreed!

Maybe take Heroine for a spin? It's a nice 2.1 ROM.
[Droid Incredible General] twisted origin:
Hey guys,

I've been lurking here ever since I got the incredible. Unfortunately, this is the first time I needed to post and it's bad news:(. My Incredible is rebooting more than 20 times a day, and I mean that not counting the reboot loop it gets stuck in. I have wiped the phone clean, started to go through the start up wizard, and it rebooted there, so I know it's not an bad app. It has rebooted randomly, though not as bad, before I rooted, so it's not that. I live in southern california and I get good service at home so I don't think it's the same problem as those incidents in south carolina. Does anyone have an idea what it could be? I'm running out of solutions and ready to just drop the phone, eat the ETF and go to sprint. Thanks in advance for the help.

[Droid Incredible General] jitajt:
I would flash it back to stock take it to verizon and show them what it is doing and have them send you another one, I brought mine back for the unresponsive screen issue and they said it was going to take three weeks for me to get another one but I received it 4 days later. so before switching to sprint and paying a big ETF I would try the above first. but if all else fails to ease the pain a little and not have to pay such a big ETF get a crappy verizon flip phone that you can activate on the line use it for a day or two then cancel your account. you will only pay a 175.00 ETF vs a 350.00 ETF. just a little round about way to "stick it" to the man.
[Droid Incredible General] twisted origin:
Also, does downgrading and unrooting get rid of the wireless-n mod? Just downgraded and was in the wizard and right when I tried to connect to my network, it rebooted.
[Droid Incredible General] twisted origin:
That's funny I just flashed it back to stock so I could do that. The problem is that I bought it from best buy in april and did not buy the extended warranty ( of course not, damn waste of money). IIRC, verizon does not honor warranties bought from a different store, correct?
[Droid Incredible General] jitajt:
if you reflash the stock ROM it wipes everything including root and wireless N, only reflash stock if you want to return it to the store otherwise you will have to go through the sd card root process again.

I am not sure if verizon won't exchange it, I think that there is a year warranty on the phone standard and extended warranty is only good for after the manufacturers warranty runs out. I would check with BB first and if they won't exchange it take it to verizon and see what they say, BB is an authorized verizon dealer so I would imagine that verizon will honor the warranty. but there is only one way to find out. Good Luck.
[Droid Incredible General] twisted origin:
ok, so I took it to verizon today, and luckily for me it was rebooting away right after the CSR personally factory reset it. I actually was happy it did, too. She was so smug, telling me that I should have been using a task killer and that maybe I didn't factory reset it correctly. She starts it up and was giving me a "haha that's how you do it" look, when it rebooted on her:D. She battery pulled it, and then it went into a reboot loop on her. Her smug look was replaced by a look of defeat:eek:. It was worth the fact that I couldn't get it to stop rebooting for five minutes after that.

I then called 611 and they said they had a replacement for me and that it would be at my doorstep in two days. Evidently, they keep a separate stock for warranty issues. Well anyways, thanks for the help and I'll have an incredible back in my hands soon:cool:
[Droid Incredible General] oxidant11:
Have u tried going into airplane mode and see if it does it? Just curious.
[Droid Incredible General] oxidant11:
Haha I just read Ur last post, I find it funny cuz I work for Verizon also and man u would not believe how many reps say u need a task killer, dumbasses.
[Droid Incredible General] twisted origin:
Yes, keeping it in airplane mode definitely helped. With that in mind, I might have an idea of what happened to my phone and potentially to other phones that have had this problem. I ordered the seidio 1750 batt. when I first got my phone, so I have been using it pretty much since the beginning. As you may know it can get unusually warm when in use. I would frequently use it when I'm at work to listen to podcasts and would keep it on the car charger while in use ( I work at a landfill doing gas monitoring, engineering, etc. so always in my work truck). That is first time I could recall a reboot occurring. I don't know how the internal layout is made up, but perhaps the radio or whatever else related received damage due to overheating. Oh well, already received my new incredible and I now have a battery charger so I will avoid charging and using at the same time. You guys are probably saying "Uh, yeah, of course that will happen, dumbass" but I've never had a problem with my other phones.

Hi All,

After finding out that a HTC Evo would be useless to me in Australia, i will have to settle for a desire.

Will the Desire be Android 2.2 Compatible?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] niaoRen:
soon it will be. Just wait for HTC to implemend the Sense UI over Android 2.2

[HD2 General] eeeeeee:
When you exit opera, there are like 10 seconds of choppyness,

so as when you are in the calendar TAB, then click on an appointment, then go back to sense tab- very choppy for 5 secs.

please any solution / reg tweak or anything :(

thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
have you moved the opera cache to the sd card? ive read and experienced this behavour myself with slow (stock) sd card, though there may be other causes too.

If you use a task manager and look, its opera.exe taking ages to exit.
[HD2 General] eeeeeee:
cache is on internal mem.

i close it from the task manager, it disappears, then choppyness..

if i kill the process, no choppyness.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
sorry i wasnt clear, i meant the process entry stays running, not the program entry.(as you noted)

Sorry i cant help.
[HD2 General] eeeeeee:
lol, i thought its obvious that the process entry is still alive while chopiness cus opera is the reason for the lag. what i said: if you kill it no choppyness.

thanks for trying to help though.

well its been a long while since ive looked at this place and was looking for information on the htc 8525(hermes). so i surfed on over to xda, only to find that there is no listing for this phone or any of the older phones. does anybody know when these forums will be back up?

-edit, i am mostly looking for updated roms for this device, i have no need to dump the phone as it works perfect still. will the roms for the htc tilt, tytn ii work for my phone, or am i s.o.l. now? =/

-edit, scratch this post, took me a bit but i found the legacy tab....it's hot, my brain is fried and all the damn changes took me for a loop. oy
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
Did anyone manage to successfully de-odex framework and apks of the FRF85B build? I tried de-odexing it with smali/baksmali 1.2.3 and the framework jars apparently get de-odexed successfully, and all the apks except Bluetooth seem to get de-odexed successfully...

But after I put in the de-odexed files, the phone boot-loops... will put up a logcat when asap...

Any idea???

Question for the seniors in the area.

If I have rooted my EVO via the 30 step, non-adp / yes terminal emulator method, and have bugless beast as my rom, radio 1.39.00.05.31, can I flash the rooted update from yesterday quoted below:

Also is anything I have done been odexed / deodexed. I dont' believe it is, but maybe in the beast somthing is....again, forgive the ignorance.

Thanks for the read / reply !!!!!

Try and contribute something to the conversation rather than, "move your post." In other words.....quit padding your stats dude. Thanks for the help though....lmao.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolsticeZero:
Considering that you will want to wipe everything (cache, dalvik cache, and system data) before installing, you can use either one. I use the standard ODEXed version myself, but it's a matter of preference.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] initial:
you're good to flash this rom. it'll put on the newest sprint stock rom that was released ota but maintain your root and nand unlocked.

if you want my recommendation, wait for whomever's rom you're using to bake it into their rom, then you'll have the newest system files + your favorite custom rom

de-odex'd roms enable you to change the android themes. you can't do the same with odex'd.

odex'd also take up a little more of your internal phone space but nothing drastic.
[Legend General] TyCam:
I bought an HTC Legend in the city (an 8 hour drive from here) and got home to discover that I can't get service here.

It's a Bell phone, and there's a Bell network here... but they won't have HSPA+ network support here until the fall. They have it in a little town of 2000 people 2 hours south of here, but not in the city of 44,000 that I'm in.

Am I out of luck completely?

I found the *#*#4636#*#* number which lets me choose cdma, evdo and others but obviously none will establish a connection.

Do I basically have a brick on my desk waiting for the network to catch up??
[Legend General] kylecore:
Unfortunately if you don't get service with hspa+ you do have a brick.

However its bell and the have plenty of phones that run android and could work on 3g or regular cdma.

Your best bet is to go back to their store and get a refund or a trade in for I different phone, I believe you have 14 or 30 days to do so.

However if there is no coverage at all in your area, then you are plain out of luck.

As a last bet if you bought the phone out right on no contract you could try rogers? But they're android line up is less then desirable. Telus, virgin, koodo and solo all use the bell network.
[HD2 General] ForgetfulGuru:
Hi Folks,

I hope I am not being lazy here, but I have looked around for a few days through many of the related forums to the HTC HD2 and Windows Mobile forums.

What I am interested in would be adding functions to the music player on the HD2.

I listen to a lot of audio books and have tried some of the (rather useless) audio book add-ons or stand alone apps for the phone. One or two of them just showed a list of books that would not or could not open; others just would not open at all or could not load on the phone.

Thinking laterally, as I do, the issue is I don't want a new app or an add-on to the tabs already available, just a change / addition to what is there already.

The Music Tab, great place to start. Why can't we have a little button the rewinds the book, or any other audio file, back 30 seconds every time you tap it. And why does the player not hold on to “where you stopped listening" and start from that point when you start play again later. A media book mark if you like.

:D :D :D :D

So here is my request;

1. Can these be added to the music player? I do not have the skills to even work out if it is possible.

2. Could one of the many well accomplished coders who frequent the site manage to take this one. would it be a allot of work? Can it be added as a cab install?

I wish I knew the answers to at least one of these questions. You guys seem to be able to tweak and mod everything else on the phone. Or do I just need to learn coding, hacking or making .aa files from mp3s. :eek:

Hope someone can answer this, I for one think it would be a great addition to an already great phone.

Thanks guys (non-gender salutation) ;)

[Nexus One General] victorhooi:
heya,

I have a Google Voice account, that's already been activated - I live in Australia, and I used LocalPhone to patch it through to my normal VoIP line here, to do the activation.

So I can login to the Google Voice website, send SMSes, and I've even received a transcripted voicemail (appears to be a tele-marketer...haha).

Anyhow, my question is, is it possible to activate Google Voice on the Android, outside the US? It seems to require its own activation, outside of the normal Google Voice activation, not sure if there's a workaround for people outside the US?

Cheers,

Victor

Where can I find information about porting phones to different carriers, specifically to US Cellular.

As of right now USCC doesn't have any Android phones yes I know they are coming out with two this summer. But I want a different phone than what they are offering.

If someone can guide me in the right direction that would be great and I would be very thankful. I had in mind to port the Evo or Incredible.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] escob3do89:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pkpara:
I don't have the links anymore, but I can tell you that I put my Sprint HTC touch pro on the verizon network a year or two ago. It involved running a few obscure programs on it and then installing a custom rom

I understand that that is not what your are looking to do, exactly, but it may be a place to start if you are interested. Google something like sprint htc touch pro on verizon and see if one thing leads to another

hope this helps in some way

Any other Slingbox users out there angry that we pay for Slingbox and then they want to charge us $30 for the software to use it? I will personally be boycotting until I can find it elsewhere or they make it free.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
from what i've read if your a Dish Network customer that owns the ViP 922, and you buy any SlingPlayer app, Dish Network reimburses those customers for the cost.

Considering Dish Network owns Sling, yeah
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Codegk:
I will have to take a look at that thank you.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Alazka:
umm i dont know exactly what this forums stance on warez is so i wont post it here but if you pm me i have this apk, unless im told i cant by a mod cuz i dont wanna get booted from here i love this forum.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mejdam:
why would it be free? Every other smartphone charges $30 so i dont understand why you though android would be any different.

if you want something cheaper use orb
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] molinap1:
I Think it is Worth the $30

I bought the app for my Incredible the day it was released and don't regret it one bit. For occasional users, $30 might seem a bit steep, but it performs great, even on 3G and lets me watch tv anytime, anywhere.

Maybe since I bought my Slingbox a while ago, an extra $30 does not seem like alot. I think if I were to pay $200 or $300 for a Slingbox now, I would feel like I deserve to get it free or at a large discount.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Codegk:
You misunderstood me. Android should not enjoy special treatment. The Slingbox apps for mobile devices should ALL be free. Might as well charge for the PC/MAC software too. does the same thing just different OS. Doesn't matter if it's a PC/MAC/BB/Iphone/Android. just be consistent.

Simply follow the logic.

What If you bought a slingbox strictly to use with your laptop while traveling? Free software!

If I bought a slingbox to use strictly with my Android(BB,Iphone,whatever) device I have to pay another $30 for the software.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
Dish Network subscriber with ViP 922 = Free!

Outside customer on DirecTV or Comcast = tough luck

Dish Network owns Sling and why would they want to extend a technology and service (from there servers i might add) to outside customers for free?

The one time fee is to pay for bandwidth / technology research most likely to improve the app over time.

Would you rather pay $20+ a year for something similiar? (aka PlayON or Hulu Plus for $10 a month!?)

be grateful that there only doing a one time fee and not charging a yearly fee to use it
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jeff327:
I think $30 is cheap for this app. In my opinion this is the best app in the Android Market. It was killing me when it was not available to Android. So, I say thank you Sling Box and thank you for making it only $30.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] qwho:
I don't feel bad paying 30 for it.

I bought my original windows mobile license for slingplayer back when I had my ipaq running windows mobile 2003se. I have been using it on all of my windows devices ever since, for my moto q, mogul, vogue, and then finally my diamond. When it came out for android I bought it right away. I'm sure when you get a new android phone, you use the same google account, you will be able to keep this license just as long.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] krelvinaz:
Bought it without hesitation.

Have been using on WM for years and use it all the time.

The Android version clearly shows tons of time, effort and development and is much better than the WM version ever was.

Sometimes you get what you pay for.

Don't know of anything out there that works as good for less.
