Has anyone tried adding the old method of Apps2SD to the rom? You don't need a kernel for that.

Here's a guide I built to add the old Apps2SD to a rom...doesn't matter which Apps2SD.

[HTC Aria General] jasonyump:
I haven't tried that method yet, and not sure if anyone else has, but I will give it a try sometime today. Thanks for that.
[HTC Aria General] graceflanger:
I would like to get FroYo soon. Idc if it has sense or not.
[HTC Aria General] SiL3nTKiLL:
yeah i would rather install it to SD too
[HTC Aria General] Shad0wguy:
Being that Android is based on linux, I don't wee why programs can't be moved to the sd card and have a symbolic link where the app normally would install. It would work in desktop linux, so why not Android?
[HTC Aria General] farquep:
Well you can but Google only added that feature in 2.2, I'm not sure about the idea behind it.
[HTC Aria General] tkirton:
Google added that feature in 2.2, but there has been workarounds using the Linux method (symlinks) since Android 1.0 via CyanogenMod.

I know my Darktremor Apps2SD uses this method of redirecting Android via symlinks to an EXT partition on the SD card. Even the dalvik cache can be redirected if desired.

I know that CyanogenMod has an Apps2SD or a way to launch it via /system/bin/sysinit (at least it does in the CDMA Hero). If anyone is interested in trying it, here's the link to 2.7.5 final:

If anyone tries it, let me know the results. Thanks.

Hello guys. Sorry if this is in the wrong area and needs to be moved. I tried to find the best place to post this new thread. Anyway, I've been using Android since the G1. One app that I would really like to see on Android is the Ocarina app that the iphone has. I am curious if anyone would be able to port it over or make one of their own. It is something that would definitely be worth paying for the work it would take in making such an app.

Is there anyone that would able to do this?
[Android Apps and Games] robottsuperbug:
WTB Ocarina APP

ok so I know that a lot of people have been asking about such a flute and many people have reacted by asking why you would want such an app. Because you get to blow into it and make noise?! Thats why! Its pretty cool to just screw around on.

What kind of apps are being created I am curious? How do you go about putting a "WTB APP"

Anyway.. WTB APP! Looking for an Ocarina App. We have all seen Magic Flute. Is that as far as it is able to go? I would be willing to pay someone to create an app that builds off that..

There could be some good back and forth apps demanded and apps supplied.

As I said before WTB OCARINA APP.

[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Hi,

So after doing the "root" everything appears to work fine but with some small problems. First of all, I'm not root. I have decent access to stuff on the system disk with just a few roadblocks. In short, I don't have full access to the system.

Now I didn't expect bootloader, recovery partition or anything like that but being able to modify init-scripts and things of that nature would be nice. It appears that what we have isn't root but rather wheel, escalated privileges but not quite God-like access to the system.

Will that come automagically with a modded recovery or bootloader or what's the deal?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 General] Bin4ry:
What do you want? If u wanna be uid=0 just check second post in Guide thread. (We forgot to pack a Superuser.apk inside the progress. Will be done while we're updating the procedure).

On all others stuff like recovery or BL (we just need one of them modded) is being worked :)

Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 General] Numsefis:
Sounds very good, that you are trying to get acces to the BL, so it's possible to get 2.2 :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightninbug:
Hi all I am a lonnnnng time owner of a G!...I was looking to get a new android device, preferable the HD2. is that any good for roms/mods/anything along like that? The G1 is lacking devs b/c they all moved on to better devices....Plz I need some opinions on which android would be the best bet to get..and im not looking to get the nexus one (not enough money).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnpapadakos:
the hd2 is a windows mobile phone, nobody has ported android to it yet

if you insist on torturing yourself with that, watch the action here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=651632

nexus one or mytouch, or mytouch slide if youre staying on tmobile

evo if you switch to sprint

droid incredible or droid if your moving to verizon

in my humble opinion

by the way, the devs have not moved on to other devices, froyo will be available on the G1 in the next few weeks from cyanogen

and if you're up for an upgrade with Tmobile, you can get the nexus1 for like 189 if you order it online from google
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightninbug:
full upgrade is in august....is the nexus one have more support/better ROMS than the hd2?

[Palm Treo Pro] runout:
My palm treo pro wifi wireless stops working after I insert the sim card and it does the auto configuration for my 3g network.

It will connect to the wifi access point but I can't browse or do anything on the connection.

Deleting the new configuration does not work either.

Is there a way to disable the treo customization after inserting a sim card.

Ive manage to stop it once by pulling out the battery when it started and configuring my 3g network manually everything worked fine wireless etc, But after a soft reset it does the auto figuration again and the wifi stops working.
[Palm Treo Pro] runout:
I ended up fixing the problem.

I noticed there was a new Program in Start -> Programs called "Internet Proxy" after Auto Configuration.

It open with a Tick "Enable Pocket Internet Explorer Proxy" but it wouldnt let me untick it so I deleted the proxy address and Port Number and the wireless worked fine and so did the 3G internet.

I've been watching all the latest phones recently and see with great disappointment that every good new phone that comes on the market is available only at the US.I live in Greece and the only high-end device we got since the Desire is the Galaxy S(priced at about 650 euros).All those years good devices came out mostly here and now this!What is happening?When will we get anything like DroidX or Evo 4G?Right now I feel very disappointed... :(
[General Topics] sablesurfer:
Seriously? The HD2 was in Europe first, the Dell Streak is not avail here...you guys get all the stuff first.

Evo is 4g and CDMA...no one else in world has 4g or CDMA I am pretty sure.
[General Topics] galaxys:
Yep, usually the States are last on the release list. But recently there's been a flurry of new device activity :cool:
[General Topics] tolis626:
I don't want good devices to come here without coming there,I just think that it'd be better that good phones came to both continents instead of only to one.And I know that the Evo is 4G and CDMA,but there could be a non-4G GSM version for Europe.And what about DroidX?Will we have to stay with the Milestone,the Desire and the HD2?They are really good phones but why not have better when we can?
[General Topics] lufc:
I am in the UK and we do got a lot of stuff before the USA but i would say there seems to be a difference in prices sometimes, especially Microsoft they seem to hike up the price in the UK Windows vista and windows 7 for example:)

[General Topics] maxpower097:
I beleive Asia gets them a full year before we do. Then what ever doesn't sell in Japan gets sent to the US and Euro. Then they slap an ATT or Tmo sticker on it and call it the latest and greatest! BTW did you konw your phone was RnD'd for a 13 year old japaneese girl. Turns out they are the most influential users for cell phones. By the numbers japaneese school girls use more cell phones then wall street businessman. Thats why cell mnf.'s test their phones with little girls and not grown adults.
[General Topics] tolis626:
Well,as for Desire being a very good phone I don't say otherwise,I might as well buy one.It's just that there aren't many options available for high-end end devices which is a little bit discouraging.Why don't we get devices like the Evo or the DroidX even now?I don't complain because we didn't get the best devices first,but because we didn't get them at all and I haven't heard any clues or rumors that they will come here.
[General Topics] SiL3nTKiLL:
UK Phones are always better than our US phones lol
[General Topics] Bigworm37:
I have a bunch of friends living in Greece...and the have the same problem you have... There like "gamiseta"..lol they are just waiting now to see if and when any new phones come out
[General Topics] tolis626:
By the way "gamise ta"(not gamiseta,it's two words) means "**** it" or something like that!Sorry about the vocabulary,but as we cannot get good phones I thought about giving some language lessons! :p

Anyway,about the whole situation now...Things have been messed up.I wanted to buy a Desire but had no spare money,so I postponed it.Now that I have the money I see all the newer phones and think that,hell,will I get the Desire?I do like it,it's way cooler and better than my Hero,but new phones have 4.3" screens,8 MPx cameras,HD videos etc...Especially when talking about such non-HTC phones,Samsung's Hummingbird and Texas Instruments' OMAP processors are better than Qualcomm's Snapdragon,and mostly in the GPU part(I do love Sense however and don't know if I can have anything else for everyday use...).So what do I do?Buy the Desire and live on wanting something better or wait with the hope that something better will be available in Europe shortly?I am really confused... :confused:

And by the way,don't you think that 640 euros for the Galaxy S is a little bit too much? :(
[General Topics] maxpower097:
Really it just depends on your carrier and thier contracts with HTC, samsung, etc... If they are willing to pay for an exclusive deal then they can have their own phone for a set time limit. If not then they are sold to all the carriers with different brands. Tmo went for the HD2 as their flagship phone, ATT went iphoney, Sprint went Evo4, Verizon is going Droid X, METROPCS went RAZR. :) lol, funny thing is aside from the iphone they are all the same phone with minor modifications.
[General Topics] tolis626:
They are in no way the same phone except for the Evo and the HD2.The Droid X uses Texas Instruments' OMAP processor which is better than the Snapdragon.Anyway,I am starting to think about buying the Galaxy S.It's probably the best one around here.I will miss Sense,but I give far too much emphasis on my hardware and Samsung's Hummingbird is just AWESOME!I love Sense however...Don't ask why,I just love it!Do you think there will be a port available for the Galaxy S? :(
[General Topics] Purple Drama Llama:

Well,right now I am between the Galaxy S and the Desire.Would buy a GSM variant of the Droid X if it came out but I don't think anything like this will happen anytime soon...I just hate it how phone companies don't give us any of the new phones!

By the way,for the Droid X...Wouldn't it be much better with some custom interface like Sense?In a phone this powerful the UI cannot reduce performane enough for us to notice.And I just HATE vanilla...! :mad:
[General Topics] kkrammer:
Amazon Germany is selling the Galaxy S for 455€, incl. VAT. Even with s&h, it should not cost more than 470€ anywhere in the Euro-Area.
[General Topics] tolis626:
Well this is upseting...The lowest price I found was somewhere a little below 600€ and it was from a store I had never heard of,which therefore I don't know whether I can trust or not.Except for the case that it is not yet officially released in Greece and what I found was just some pieces brought from other countries.And now that I think of it it's not that insane as no major store has it yet.Maybe the price will drop with the official release! :)
[General Topics] Eienkei:
I agree! I'm dying to get something like Evo or Droid X but GSM compatible! There's nothing even near them! 4.3 Inch display, 8 MPixel video & HDMI out!!! What do we have? Desire? It even can't handle a simple D1 video recording! Can't run Asphalt smoothly!!! The best we can get is Galaxy S which is so iPhony! No LED flash? Just to release it with flash for Sprint!!! I'm sick of it!!!

There's nothing on upcoming list of GSM phones, just check GSMArena! It's way too obsolete these days...

I found the originating post very interesting; considering how we'd often get the better phones last, or not at all.
[General Topics] tolis626:
I suppose you are American?Well,just to make this clear to avoid any misunderstandings,in the first place I meant that they should release all phones almost simultaneously everywhere,not that we should get the best phones here in Europe and you should get them like 6 months later if at all.
[General Topics] maxpower097:
Thats just not realistic. Take APPL for example. They can only produce 1 million units per month of the iphone4 and ipad. Its just not possible to produce 100 million phones for 1 release date. Especially when some fail. Take the KIN1 and KIN2. They got released in the US and failed miserably. So now they canceled their worldwide release and killed off the phone. Imagine the monetary loss if they had launched worldwide and with marketing, manufacturing and distribution. Another point to take into account is how electronics are made and sold. You design the electronics to match up with the date the chips will be available at the right price. Right now APPL is probably paying $30 for a CPU, but next year they will pay $15. So by dragging out production your material cost go down. So they can make and sell a phone now for no profit but in a year cost will have dropped off enough to make a profit. I firmly believe this is the reason for the shortage of ipads. I think they launched to early and the chips are still to expensive to make 10's or millions of units. So they keep postponing it and pushing it back.
[General Topics] tolis626:
That's just Apple! :p

I know there cannot be a worldwide launch day,but they can release the phones in the US and Europe within the same month.I just hate the idea of the best being exclusive for just one market...I mean,what?The dilemma we are facing here is between Desire/Nexus One and Galaxy S!Where are our options?I want no Evo!I just want something similar!The same device's GSM version if possible!Same goes for the Droid X.Why can't we have something like a Milestone X?And for god's sake,NOT CARRIER EXCLUSIVE!What about us underage customers?I am 16 and cannot make a contract!Don't I have the right to purchase a good phone?Alright,my Hero's nice and good and all,but how many of you can stand using the same device day by day for almost a year,having trouble customising it and flashing custom ROMs afraid of losing your data and having to damage it,however slightly,to get a small part of the performance provided by today's high-end phones?It's just so unfair...

And by the way,I think I'll be getting the Galaxy S if there are no news of a European version of the Droid X.I love the Desire,I love Sense,but I don't like the relatively crappy Snapdragon.At the same frequency it gives 30mTps as opposed to 90mTps of the Hummingbird.Not to mention the performance of TI's OMAP!
[General Topics] tolis626:
Oh,and by the way,I forgot to ask...Does anyone know what material the screen of the Galaxy S is made of?Is it glass like that of the HD2?If yes then...Hell yeah! :D

theyre developing and making new phones for your so be patient and wait you never know the evo can arrive in the uk with windows mobile or android 2.3 the US is getting lucky because of our 4g revolution and new android releases

I'm not whining my friend.I am just mentioning with my unorthodox way that this situation is unfair for us as it was for you until a few months ago.And there are cases even worse,like Brazil or Canada,but someone can only talk about their situation.What we do is express our opinions and/or our complains.I did not mean to get annoying and am really sorry if such a thing happened.I just thought that we should be heard!
[General Topics] fadimo305:
its ok no problem youre entitled to be heard and give your opinion i know its unfair i know its enraging but you have to be patient you have to wait we will have to wait for WP7, Android 2.3,Windows 8,Office 2012,Flying cars,Super soldiers ETC...

we will have to wait for many things in life:) and in my opinion you guys should wait probably 2 or 3 months or so because i think their are New smartphones that are going to be coming out in the uk or in other parts of europe this year trust me;)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigdrago:
Every 10 minutes, or more often, the phone disconnects from the network,

and ask me to enter the SIMs PIN code. The phone is still initializing the SIM-card regularily without my

knowing because I've now disabled the PIN-code and perhaps draining the

battery or something. This is very annoying, when I'm calling someone the SIM-card suddenly disconnects :(

...Any fix for this? I tried to solve it by replacing it with a new sim-card, but that didn't fix it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigdrago:
Problem solved. I've noticed that a lot of people have this problem, including my brother. The solution was a hard-reset of them phone.

1. Turn the power off. If your HTC Desire is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it

2. Hold the Volume Down button

3. Press and release the Power button

4. You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock

5. Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button

6. Press and release the Power button

7. Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO

If you selected YES, all data including third-party applications will be deleted from the HTC Desire. Once the wipe is complete, the phone will reboot to its factory fresh state.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angasreid:
So I've done a little research on pricing, found out to have my screen replaced by HTC it's $115. I asked about having an indy shop do it instead but they informed that doing so would void the warranty. How would they know? Apparently the screws in the back have paint on them and they know if the phone has been tampered with.

Anyways, the crack in my screen is about an inch long. It starts on the left right where the bottom of the taskbar is. It then runs up to right under the earphone speaker. The phone works just fine and you can barley see the crack.

My question, is it dangerous to the phone to not have it repaired? The crack can't "run" any more, so I can't quite make up my mind. Let me know what you all think.

Thanks.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
If it's a scratch, meh

If it's an actual crack, 100% DEFINITELY replace it. Your entire screen's strength has been compromised. Who knows when the next pressure put on it in the wrong place or accidental drop could cause the whole screen to crack since it is weaker now.

I would go for the replacement.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clickwir:
Replacement screens/glass on ebay yet?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinglouis3:
Don't get it fixed unless it becomes unusable or unless it bothers you. If it doesn't bother you then why spend $115 to fix it. Fix it when it actual causes problems using it and by the time that happens the price to fix it might drop.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
If the crack runs from one side to another, then your glass is already in two pieces. The touch digitizer is the only thing holding it together. The worst that can happen is you push in the screen and the glass cuts through the digitizer and scratches the OLED underneath. That being said, I've seen a number of people use iPhones with cracked screens for months without any trouble and I've never seen the digitizer give way.

I agree with KingLouis3: Use it 'til it annoys you or breaks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angasreid:
Thanks for the responses. Pokey, I think my concerns were along the lines of what you said with the OLEDs. It is somewhat difficult to explain where the location sorry some of you are grammar professors apparently.

Either way, I do I'll end up just holding up to get it worked on for the time being. I'll see how long it goes until any issues arise. Here's a picture by the way, see if you can see what I'm talking about here.
