You can root without a custom ROM.

EVO does support EAS policies.

I am not able to answer #3 at this time, I am sure I will find out while exploring the EAS components.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
After following almost all rooting methods you should have a stock rooted ROM. After rooting you can flash a new stock rooted ROM anytime you want, the links are in the wiki that is stickied on the Android Dev thread. Also there is more info in the guide in my sig.

As far as encryption of mail files goes I have no idea, but would be interested to know this... Let us know if you find anything in your testing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GiantSloar:
The phone I got for test had the OTA updates applied. Looks like no root for me now.

As soon as I find out anything, I'll post it around.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Unfortunately for anyone that applied the OTAs before rooting, they now have to wait for the un-fix. There is a thread devoted to this in android dev. I don't have a link cause I'm on my phone ATM, but it should be on page 1.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ro_bro:
I had a question. Is it possible to go from a nandroid backup and somehow simply leverage that to create a custom ROM?

The reason I ask is b/c I took the IC3 ROM v2.7 and then modified it, removing the DConfig app (to fix a wakelock issue), enabling JIT manually, and then also adding some specific apps I like while removing others.

I was wondering if I could somehow take the exact state that I'm in with my ROM to create a custom ROM that I can share with others. (I wouldn't try to take any credit for this modified ROM of course, it's just to share)

Does anyone know?

WELL

try Olipro's HSPL package. make sure it is the one meant for your device also. not calling you stupid, just saying :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] datboidame:
hardspl problem

When downloading the Hard-SPL from a forum many users experience problems with the error saying they have already unlocked a device when they haven't. Your best bet is to download the Hard-SPL software straight from Olipro's website and if you still have that error just simply send him an email explaning the error and he will clear the situation for you so you can get your 1 free unlock. Olipro has the best Hard-SPL unlocker for GSM or CDMA just make sure you choose the right one... GOOD LUCK! :)

I'm using Amber_Bravox_V5.

I partitioned SD as half FAT32 and EXT3 with GParted.

I flashed ROM after SD partitoning.

When ROM boot I can't see App2SD enabled in Settings->Application menu.

I flashed Rotation MOD from MC3.1 and then I could see App2SD in Settings->Application menu enabled. Why this happens????? Maybe in MOD.zip file there is something which wrote in fs make App2sd activable?!!!?!

I searched a lot and googled more.. can anyone explain me better how to enable App2SD??

(Also, I tried r1-a2sd...zip but it fails during flash from recovery).

It does not show this option unless you flash one of the custom Froyo roms on 2.2 as this feature is integral to the OS. Any 2.1 rom you try will not have this option available.

Hi.

Do you have the automatic time synchronization on? Try to disable it.

Settings -> Personal -> Phone ->

or

Sense settings tab -> data services -> internet time sync ->
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] starvinmrvn:
Hey thanks for the response...my settings are different though. I found the setting in BSB Tweaks and turned it off...only time will tell if it helps though...we will see if my phone fails to wake me up again tomorrow...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] starvinmrvn:
Left Energy yet again because of this issue...I dont know a whole lot about the technicalities but it seemed to me that the phone is 'going to sleep' and actually losing track of the time thus keeping my alarm from sounding in the mornings.

When I hit the power button to wake the screen up in the mornings it would be displaying a time that was hours behind and seemingly random (what lead me to believe the phone was in a deeper sleep than normal). Possibly a really stupid theory...but like I said I dont know a whole lot. I just know it was way unacceptable in my case.

I will still monitor his threads like always and try the latest and greatest ROMS.

Clock Issue with Energy romArrow

I think the problem you are having is the windows alarm bug. I used to get this all the time until i started using g-alarm. it fixes the issue when you first install it. (note that its a paid app.) but here is the description and the registry edit that you need to change to fix the problem. :-)

- You're running it on a rooted DI, right?

Yes to the first two. Just now tried the latest busybox in titanium and voila, problem solved. Thanks very much!
[Desire General] Vlad_M:
My desire has the screen calibration problem (misaligned screen, buttons getting pressed on their own, screen just generally acting wonky from time to time). Before sending the phone back (turnaround time is horrendous) I want to try flashing a custom ROM since a lot of the people report that this problem disappears after rooting/instslling a custom ROM.

Problem is, I can not seem to find a tutorial explaining the process step by step, and have read about the USB-bricking - not sure exactly what happens but it doesn't sound like a good experience. :D

Can someone here recommend a good, stable custom room (with a newish kernel), and point me in the direction of a rooting/flashing tutorial. I'd be much obliged.

TIA.

[Android Software Development] Shidell:
I'm working on an application that will use a Service Controller (Activity) to set personal settings, and then run a Service in the background constantly to take action on your preferences, based on system changes.

I'm trying to wrap my head around getting said changes. It sounds like I need a BroadcastReceiver class--but it also appears that I could simply add the <intent-filter> element to my Manifest for my Service (or even my Activity) and get the same results. Is that true? Can I simply create a BroadcastReceiver object within the Service to obtain broadcasted Intents?

I understand that BroadcastReceivers are essentially dormant until an Intent is broadcast, but it seems like unnecessary overhead as compared to having my already-running Service analyzing broadcasts for applicable data.

Additionally, if BroadcastReceivers are the ideal (or only) way of handling broadcast Intents, is transporting data to my Service as another (Explicit) Intent the only way to do so? It appears that I'd have to use the "ExtraData" fields, and that seems.. worthless? I want to transport my own structure with flags for the values I care about, rather than creating a string (or other specific layout) to interpret values from the "ExtraData" field.

Thoughts on BroadcastReceivers? Insight from the more advanced developers would be appreciated. :)

Thanks for your time.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
Hey guys just got the phone 2 days ago and i have a few trouble with it.

Long time user of android since G1 but some of the common things i do is not as visible as it seems.

I am from south east asia and i am using the DXJF4 firmware.

Right now the most common problem is that :

1) When you receive sms, you get 2 notifications one from the original sms from android and one from the samsung sms manager. How can i disable the original one?

2)How the hell do you assign ringtones? It seems like it's not easily accessed from the contacts menu?

3) On the top left handside above the volume button there seems to be a hole is that my set alone or is there a reason to have a hole there?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
Okay so after searching a bit i found some of the answers.

1) There is no way to disable the 2 notifications for sms. You get both which is an arse.

I can't find any way to disable the original one.

2)You can only assign individual ringtone to contacts in the phone, that measn your google contacts can't be assigned. What a load of crap.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
I'm sure there's a way to fix those. As soon as I get mine up and running, I'll try and help.

If all else fails, a custom rom will fix it, whenever that happens:(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
The hole is where you would mount a wrist strap, or in Korea, one of those dangling decorations they all love.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
I dun have this problem. I only receive 1 notification for SMS.

For assigning ringtones to contacts, this option is not available if your contacts are not phone contacts, eg contacts synced with gmail. The only way to assign ringtone to these contact is to create a phone contact and link the 2 together. Then you can assign the ringtone to the phone contact. This works for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
Hmm yeah the phone contact is dumb IMHO.

But i am getting to notification, one white sms logo like the old android and another yellow envelope which i think is the samsung one.

What firmware are you on?

I am using a Malaysian unit with JBF4 i think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
I am from Singapore. Think firmware is JFX4 or something similar.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
So you only get one notification is it? The yellow icon?

Argh i if only there is a way to access the old sms programs.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] audino:
When Im tryin to call someone Im always getin a tone after the line first rings can I disable it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
It's under setting, under call settings.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
Yes, only the yellow one. Did you guys install any 3rd party sms client?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] g00ndu:
I use Handcent, Missed Call (from Market by Anno), SPC (Super Private conversation) and the stock sms app.

You can disable the samsung sms notification.

Go to the stock Messaging

Click on the left button. Menu will pop up.

Click on Setting

Scroll down all the way and there is a notification setting.

Disable that.

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] naTTan:
Nah i am using only the default one. Haih i guess i will try to update to JFX5 and see if that helps.

or even something as simple as this:

the hdmi->rca cable is fake. does not work. HDMI is digital, rca is analog, wont work without a converter.

I'm partial to the HD Furies, but the HD Fury 2 is what you would need (Green edition HD Fury 1 would work, but that has BNC ends not RCA)

the HD Fury 2 has a 3.5mm out and VGA out... so its very dependant on what your TV takes. Although once you get to VGA you would get a VGA->RCA converter no problem. Just be careful, alot of places sell fake ones.

If you go to DVI you will lose audio unless your adapter and going from digital to analog (dvi or hdmi to vga) requires an expensive converter box.

[Dash 3G, Snap General] rm_2:
same question here ...

hi,

well ... same question here. the snap looks awesome, and although there are other candidates in the qwerty candybar department (motorola charm, acer betouch e130 and htc salsa), none of them are out (yet) and none of them seem to be able to match the clean-cut, minimalist looks of the snap.

the salsa's front is fine by me, but the leaked images show a bit too much ornamentalism on the back, the motorola ... well, somehow, i've never been a fan of motorola's designs, the only device i loved being the f3, but that's a different league entirely. something about their decorative use of metal just puts me off. and, finally, the acer. it actually might be ok, we'll see how it actually looks in real live.

right now, i have a nokia e72 and a hero in use, and it really is a shame to see how poorly the hero's text input performs in my (somewhat unique) situation of writing mixed in english, german and chinese. the nokia with it's physical keyboard and a very well integrated ime switching just works soooo much better for that (actually, previous to s60e5, i.e. with a e71, i had to rely on 3rd party software, but it certainly worked).

on android, there's the google pinyin keyboard, which works well for switching between pinyin and a us keyboard, but typing on 3.2 with no autocorrection is a pain.

now, i do imagine a non-touch screen will cause some ui issues ... but that's an ui problem, not an os problem, right? isn't there any example that at least provides a core phone functionality (calls, contacts, text, maybe even email) with a non - touch screen? anyone?

so: i need a physical qwerty OR a software keyboard that works as well as apple's when it comes to switching between international keyboards.

Hello

Ive been looking into putting ANDROID onto a WIND MOBILE HTC MAPLE. This issue is I can not seem to conclude the procedure to how this would be done.

I've recently posted this topic in general assistance under the HTC maple subsection of the boards, and had the thread closed as the topic was referenced in this post. Im still quite unclear on how this is to be accomplished.

Ive looked into WING LINUX but it SEEMS there is no .cab file for the HTC MAPLE only for the excalibur, etc. There seems to be no file specifically for use with the HTC MAPLE and this is the part that is confusing.

If anyone can be of assistance with determining how to go about the process any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your time everyone.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smileey:
Hi All

I have been trying to root my G1. I downgraded it to RC29.

Then, it started behaving very weird.

When I boot up, I cant do anything from the home screen. Even if I try to open the app drawer, it immediately closes it. I cant open the dialer. I cant even go to another home screen. It immediately comes to the default one. I cant even power it off. I can only pull the battery off. But in that case, when I try starting it again, it goes into the screen with triangle and exclamatory mark. When this happens, there is nothing much I can do. So, I just leave it for a long time like a day. Then, if I try starting it, it boots, but again same problem as before.

I tried reflashing the ROM many times, but no use. After the reflashing, it has same problem again.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aznneedlovetoo:
Try flashing a different rom. Sounds like you have a very unstable rom.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smileey:
I have used the one cyanogen suggests in his instructions. It is the DREAMIMG.nbh and downloaded from android-dls.com

I have downloaded it couple of times and reflashed. So, its not that the file got corrupted during download.

Do you have suggestions about any other ROM?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smileey:
Now, I think it is not a problem with the ROM

It is as if the Home button is stuck. That is why, it always comes back to home screen, and boots up into recovery since home+power is recovery mode.

Once in a while it randomly goes into the recent apps window confirming that it is a home button issue.

Any work around?
