Just got my EVO this afternoon as well... back-ordered with Radio Shack since 06/08/10

W00T!

Phone is slick as they come - no light leaking anywhere. Hardware version 0003

Now I'm off to see what I can do to it...
[EVO 4G General] Softgel97:
What screens are these new phones?

To find the screen hit the brightness button on the power widget. If the screen fades between transition you have a novatec. If the screen transitions instantaneous, you have an epson.
[EVO 4G General] dmystic1:
Acually yes, but I was thinking it was the update for the sd card, because I new they other was pulled, but it turned out not to be so.
[EVO 4G General] dmystic1:
It's instant. Epson.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bcispcpro:
EDIT: SOLVED.

Thanks to all the amazing threads on this site, I'm able to and in the process of theme-ing my phone (blues instead of greens). I've transformed all of the .9.pngs that i could find in the drawable-hdpi folders in both com.htc.resources.apk and framework-res.apk. Thus far, everything has been good (once i realized the bottom and right traces in draw9patch were for content regions..)

As you can see in the images attached, the outline and highlight of the textfield has been modified from the original green in portrait mode. However, there seems to be 2 pesky images that i cannot find for landscape (the last two attached images). Ive looked thru the drawable-land-hdpi as well in both of the apks. I haven't left a single orange colored .9.png file. Hell, i even modified the textfield_im_user_pressed_pad.9.png and textfield_im_user_selected_pad.9.png in the stock MMS.apk drawable-hdpi folder. I simply cannot find this file...

The one orange-colored image which i thought was it, keyboard_textfield_pressed.9.png in com.htc.resources.apk, was not.

Unless, its an XML color or drawable...in which case im screwed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.​

EDIT: Found the correct file...turns out its in the HTC_IME_hi.apk drawables. keyboard_textfield_pressed.9.png and keyboard_textfield_selected.9.png if anyone was wondering..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tactical Fart:
I just update to cyanogen 5.0.8-DS. But I think I flashed wrong and my G1 went into a bootloop. So I pulled the battery, rebooted, wiped, then reflashed. Now my google apps are missing.

I know what file I need but I don't know how to use it. Do I simply rename it to "update.zip" and flash or is there something else because I wiped? Knowing my luck, it's not that simple.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qbdx:
Download Cyanogen's rom and the Google Addon file

Then go into the recovery menu and do the wipe, i think its cache, data and file systems, and dalvik cache.

Then choose the flash zip file in the recovery menu, and flash cyanogen's rom, then the google add on one after another. After its done completing, choose the reboot menu and let the phone load. it shouldnt take longer than 5 minutes. After that, you should be set.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozgreg:
All,

Hopefully someone has seen this before... I have two google accounts, one for my business (google domain account) the other personal (standard gmail account). Because a lot of my phone contacts are business related I keep my phone address book in my business account but my Market Apps purchases are from my personal account..

The setup works perfect except when it comes to the address book contacts..

I have found if I add my personal account first and then my business account the contact is associated via my personal account even although I have not enabled address book syncing..

If I add my business account first then my personal account second already paid for apps in the marketplace are no longer available..

All in all pretty frustrating... I am guessing this is a bug anyone else seen this or better still got a nice work around...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] handk4:
currently i am using samung wave.

the hardware is good, but i dont like the bada os.

does anyone know if there will be an android hack for wave? probably the galaxy s firmware
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MacaronyMax:
Nice Idea But i do not know yet
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pepenono:
Good idea samsung wave with galaxy firmware, when, please
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] boo6:
would also really appreciate such a firmware. :cool:

the hardware is so close to the GalaxyS, so it doesn't seem to be impossible ..

the hardware of this phone ist so great, the case is so good looking metal, and the display is the best beside the Galaxy S - it would really deserve a cool modding dev, that brings android to it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] avivsworld:
If you can gain root and install a linux kernel, yes. However, looking at the work it's taking to install android on the hd2, with the highly customizable windows mobile OS, it's almost definitely not gonna happen with bada OS when there's a perfectly viable alternative (Galaxy S)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mousezine:
i buyed this phone yesterday. its perfect hardware for Android . i hope someone finds a solution to install android os on it soon.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] silverwolf0:
Me three? Or four? Any devs interested?

If it had an official Samsung release of 2.2 froyo I would get the phone in a heartbeat. Pipedreams. Wouldn't mind the screen being just a tad bigger with less color saturation also.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nismo034:
Hi All,

Check out this thread as there is a lot of people wanting Android on the Samsung Wave and are will to donate to see it happen. Maybe post in that thread to show your support.

Ok turns out I cannot post links yet. So go to the thread 'samsung wave instead of galaxy s?'

If we have enough people will to donate maybe we can get the attention of someone like Cyanogenmod [dot][com]

We want Android on Samsung Wave!

Hi fellas.

I want this to happen too!!

IF YOU ARE ON FACEBOOK Then please join my page titled:

"We want Android on Samsung Wave!":)

if you want Android on Samsung Wave!

Wave has everything on the hardware front, a Smart-phone lover's dream come true!! but It's the crippled software that bottle-necks what could truly be an Iphone killer!

So please Samsung..Do the right (and rational) thing!!

and unleash the Wave S8500 with Android support!!

this will turn your wave into a Killer Wave!! &

It will make you No.1 in smart-phone league!!:cool:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pongothemagnificent:
If you wanted android..why did you buy the samsung wave in the first place? you should have bought the galaxy S...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NHS2008:
cause I want a good build phone with a flash.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chris.styler:
I second NHS2008. I would also add that the Wave is 30% cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy S/i9000 and is basically the same phone with a smaller screen.

Android on the Samsung Wave would be fantastic!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stalker1988:
Maybe u can donate me some money big mouth so that i can buy something better than the galaxy of course
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] loxbus:
hmm

.lol at last comment. :p

I have been seeing these posts all over the web for some time now with people wanting android on their WAVE fones.

I beleive it is possible, just no one has done it yet because the galaxy is around.

I am not just guessing, as i have ventured into the file system on my fone many times in the past.

The Galaxy, runs its 'root software' that then loads up Android, Making it an Android fone.

Want some good news ?

The wave is running this exact same 'root software'.

Most of the files are the same, the folder structures are the same. everything except the wave has different configuration files and of course the addition of the Bada platform and different hardware drivers.

Yep bada is nothing more than a platform, so to speak.

Think of it like this,

Lets pretend the old DOS is a 'root software'.

And windows v3 and windows 95 were both platforms (or GUI's, however u want to look at it).

Once upon a time, you would have a hard drive that would load into DOS, which you could then choose load your windows 3.1 (the old day, hehe).

Then came windows 95 that would startup and go straight into windows, right ?

Wrong.

Win95 also started up with Dos, then loaded windows 95. Just was dont in a way that same it look seemless (when it didn't BSOD on ya :rolleyes: ).

A quick change to configuration files, and you could stop that win95 autoload feature, and it too would boot into the DOS it was actually starting with, giving you the option to run which ever windows you had on hand.

Now if your still following me ;)

Both the Galaxy and the WAVE are starting up with the same 'DOS/root-software', then their config files are telling one to load the 'Android Platform/Windows v3', and the other is telling it to load the 'Bada Platform/Windows 95'.

Thats the best way i can think of putting it to explain it.

So the theory is, Remove the Bada files, And copy the android files on, and update the root-software's config files to point to the Android ones at startup.

Or even better, leave both file sets on there and create a startup menu that would allow the user to choose if they want to boot into Bada or Android.

Dont beleive me ?

Go ahead, compare the files and file structures for the 'root software' area's on both the galaxy and the wave. they are the same, because both fones start up the same, the main difference is the platform it tells the fone to load after startup, and the driver settings for each fones hardware.

I hope this has helped,

as i was getting tired of seeing people say android on the wave isn't possible and never will be because they're 2 totally different fones.

:)

Feel much better now i've gotten that out.

lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bra1nwasher:

[Android Themes] SheemGlav:
Just a quick question/wondering if anyone would know. If i use titanium backup and make a backup of all the applications, transfer that folder to my computer, edit a few programs (as in changing the color, etc.) and then without resigning the .apk's just restore the apps on my phone, could that possibly work??

[Desire General] rainerateimer:
Hello,

well I have this Problem for quite some time now and I hope someone could help me with it.

So I rooted my Desire a while ago (7 Weeks) and since then almost always used

Pays Rocksolid Rom. This Rom NEVER froze or Rebooted on me (it was as stable as the Original, unrooted Rom)

BUT since i Rooted i tried out a lot of Roms (mainly Armor Bravox V3 till V5 - love the different system color, also Pays BraveSoul, PirateRum, DJ, ...) and ALL of them started to Reboot on their own (like twice a day, dependend on usage) or just started to freze randomly (also like 3 times a day, dependend on usage).

Some Roms actually lastet about a day till the first problem, some started it after a couple of hours.

Its not like their unusable, i get that. But its just annoying if you have to worry about your device rebooting (specially if your showing of some nice LiveWallpapers to someone^^).

My guess is that this is related to all the Overclocked Kernels al those Chiefs use, becouse as far as i know Pays Rocksolid rom is with standard Kernel and it works perfekt.

Could someone help me? Can i flash standard Kernel on like the Armory Bravox Rom ?

Thanks in advantage,

Rene

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
You're unrooted stock, and you're already at FRF85B. so all you need to do, is go to like he said settings/privacy and do an ERASE.

That's all. Your enter phone will erase all your user data and when it reboots it will be like a new phone on FRF85B.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Doo Doo:
how to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!

0. please make sure you already flashed stock ROM and radio, because stock SPL flash is *always* the last step before sending the device in.

1. download the Relocker attachment, extract the zip and run the EXE on your PC

2. if you wish to replace RUU_Signed.NBH that got extracted, feel free to do so, but not necessary (this Hard-SPL will only allow overwrite with a SPL signed by our custom cert). the included one is the 0.79.0000 stock SPL. you also have the option for 0.84.0000 and 0.87.0000, see the attachments.

3. flash

4. verify if it flashed by checking version in tricolour screen, it should say 0.79.0000 (or 0.84.0000 or 0.87.0000), not 0.85.OliNex.

Thanks very much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toleraen:
Not to be a jerk but you might want to get in the habit of reading the entire first page of the HardSPL thread, and any thread that involves modifying your phone. You're setting yourself up for a nice expensive brick in not doing so.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Showtime7:
Just make sure you flash your stock ROM/radio first then just run the stockSPL exe and you're set. Just relocked mine to turn it in for a hopeful replacement.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pickles319:
I'm already aware of all of the dangers of modifying. I've been doing it for a while and was just curious where to go if I wanted/needed to go back to the original factory state.

Understood, it's just that the answer to your question is in the first and second post of the HardSPL thread. Per OliNex's instructions in said thread:

[HD2 General] tboy2000:
If you hold the phone in your left hand - just like the iPhone 4's "wrong" grip (your skin presses against the lower left side of the phone) watch reception bars go down 1 or 2 bars. The longer you leave your hand there, the more the bars go down. Release and they are up again. Tried it with and without a case. Same issue.
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
Just because it happens to HD2 does not necessarily become a problem.

I could also reproduce that on my iPhone 3GS and 3G in some location but not in all locations. I didn't even realise this until people start complaining about iPhone 4. To reduce the signal, i have to grip it (without using a case) very tightly without lettting go for a long time. If I periodically relax my hand as I would in normal usage, then signal won't go down. As this is not the way I normally grip, and the fact that I've been using my phones for so long without even knowing there is a "problem" probably means that I have nothing to worry about.

Then, I searched the youtube and found out that it is also happening to Nokia phones:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi1gHDa7-X0

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ7t75Uo6qQ

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amPG52DVQuk

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Zsuxbd0L0g

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyLrFY3mI0M

Nokia is trying to fool everyone by saying that users can hold their phones in anyway they want, but this is simply not true. See this:

http://www.appleinsider.com/article...at_iphone_4_death_grip_gets_called_on_it.html

Haven't got an iPhone 4 yet, but my impression is that this issue is more pronounced with it. IMO, although it can be easily fixed by using a case, applying a sticky tape or nail polish over the lower left half of the antenna, Apple would definitely need to address this issue so that out of the box the extent of signal strengh reduction is minimized.
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
I didn't say it was a problem. I was just shocked to find it out after all this time I had it and never knew. Hence the OMG! :-)
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
I think the phenomena is likely to exist with every phone, in certain locations, with certain hand type, but owners of the phone may not notice it unless they deliberately test it out. I could only produce that phenomena is one part of my house but not in another. Just like half the iPhone 4 owners were not able to reproduce this problem while about half were able to. My guess is that it has nothing to do with manufacturing defects, but simply a case of the location, orientation, and body type.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
There have been discussions about that at the beginning on the HD2. The antenna is in the bottom part of the phone, between the bottom and the start of the metal cover, i.e. where your hand is (as stated in the manual).

The end word is that pretty much every phone on the market will have its reception drop a bit when you hold it.
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
FCC only allows the antenna to be located at the bottom of the phone, away from the user's brain. Also, the level of signal strengh must not exceed what's allowed. So, even if the manufacturer want to relocate the antenna to the top part of the phone so that user's hand could not touch it so easily, it would not be approved. Simiilary, even if the manufacturer could increase the signal strength, it would not be approved.
[HD2 General] wineds:
I heard that the fastest and cheapest way to solve teh Iphone 4 reception problem was to put a condom over it. They are cheaper than the bumper and are available in a varitey of colors and textures. The added plus is that you always have a condom handy should you need one :)
[HD2 General] DuperMan:
Classic Apple!

Let HTC and Nokia work tirelessly for years upon years only to one-up them with a bigger shinier version of a feature EVERY smartphone has had since 2003.

Sheesh.
