There's not much point spending time implementing red for positive since it'll never happen! Personally I'm not convinced it's a great idea to leave off the - sign anyway, it'll only confuse people into thinking higher equals better. Also, it still doesn't solve the wrapping problem since 3 characters is still too many.

For what it's worth, here's some screenshots of the same dBm levels on an iPhone (from Anandtech's iPhone4 antenna investigation):

Looks fine to me.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] PapaDocta:
well it was just an idea.. but i hope you can solve it as this would be very cool to have :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shaggy-h:
This is now included in the latest CyanogenMod nightly. You can enable it via Menu -> Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> User interface -> Status bar -> Show dBm. Currently there's a bug (which has always been there for the clock and battery %age too) that means you need to reboot for it to take effect.

I realise there's a space on the left hand side of a couple of pixels that I could shave off still, plus there's more room for improvement if I can figure out a good way to combine this with the signal strength icon. These changes will have to wait a while though since tomorrow I'm off on holiday for a couple of weeks and won't have a dev PC handy. Or an Internet connection, or even a mobile signal for that matter! I'm going to be on a ship up in the arctic :-)

Assuming I don't get eaten by a polar bear I'll see if I can at least get rid of that gap on the left and the reboot issue when I get back.

I know everyone is looking for an app to do this easily, but I don't really care about it that much. If I really need to know my dbM, i just dial *#*#4636#*#* . You have to use the default dialer though, doesn't work in Dialer 1. Just my 2cents.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] markouk:
You can see dBm in settings>status without going into the service menu.

People want to have the option to have it visible next to the active signal strength graphical display on the status bar. That's the whole point of this thread.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] garfnodie:
I think I pointed out that I knew people were looking for something like that, I just though I'd through out another way of checking that info for those that didn't know. I know on a stock EVO, you can't see the dbm in the settings/status. So again, just another way of checking for those that may have stumbled across this thread but don't want it in their status bar.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shaggy-h:
Not from me I'm afraid since it would require more effort than I really have time for to get set up to develop against other roms (I'm still a bit of a n00b on that front). The source code for my changes are available in the CM6 source on github though, and anyone's more than welcome to pick up the changes for other roms if they would like to.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] RogerPodacter:
on a stock EVO you can just go into the main phone settings, go to about, status, and see the dBm there.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gader:
Is it possible to have this feature (dBm meter) and battery precentage meter from CM6 in a Sense rom?

[Android Software Development] mrkev150:
I was just wondering, how does a program identify your phone? I'm curious because I recently purchased a used cell phone and apparently this girl had downloaded a program called "aforum" and "discussion forum" on her phone. I liked what the programs had to offer so I wiped the phone, rooted it and re-downloaded the same programs.

I was surprised to find that the screen name of the user was still in use for both "aforum" and "android forums" (discussion forum). Is there any way to get rid of this data from your phone? Maybe it's impossible because they use the imei/serial number of the phone?
[Android Software Development] turkeylord:
if you did a factory reset, then that may be why its still there. from what i have seen, a factory reset doesnt really delete all files on the phones internal memory (i did a factory reset after i made a custom framework look, and it was still there) if you dont want this to happen, you may need to use the motorola tools and completly wipe/reinstall the phone.
[Android Software Development] gggames:
The actual command is probably TelephonyManager.getDeviceId(). If the program says it needs Read Phone State and Identity permission, then it can read your imei or meid, phone number, voice mail number, phone type and a few other things unique to the device.

Mostly this stuff can't be changed, but if you're using T-Mobile or AT&T then you can try putting someone else's sim card.

Another possibility is that the program has saved data to the internal SD card. Less likely, but possible.
[Android Software Development] mrkev150:
Thanks for the reply. Wow, I did not know that programmers actually can get this information from your phone through an app. This is pretty invasive. An app that can get your imei, serial number, sim card number, phone #, etc. I guess I'm sorely out of luck when trying to clear this identifying data?
[Android Software Development] mercianary:
Is it possible to fake this information?

Not that I have anything to hide, I just think that my business is my business and shouldn't be anyone's else's business (literally).
[Android Software Development] gggames:
As far as I know it's not possible to fake any of this information.

You just have to be aware of what permissions applications ask for. These things make sense to programmers, but I know from experience it's not always easy to make things clear to end users.

Just pay attention to what the application says it's allowed to do after you click Install, but before you press OK.

got it to install, but had to uninstall a ton of stuff to get the 99 Mb apk installed..:eek:

Only quick race works now, after playing a race it prompts you to buy the full version, you need to be on verizon to buy the full one apparently for the moment since it was ripped from Droid X and gives an error.

To top it all off, the quick race isnt even that good...meh. For 100 Mb you'd think it would be better than this. Hope its just cause its a pre-release, cause they hyped this up a lot.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Ren13B:

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RustyGrom:
Something is funky with this one. It seems like they slipped a new build of XDE in last month the same day this emulator image is dated (June 24th). The new XDE won't run the old emulator builds and the old one won't run this newer build. Also, it won't run any deployed apps. It just throws an error when they try to load. Nonetheless, I'll try and get it posted when I get home from work later this evening. I'll just ignore all of the posts of "it doesn't work". :)

Im running damagecontrol and wanted to know how to make sure apps2sd is working.... I am getting a "phone storage space is getting low" notification. Is there somthing i need to do to get the apps to download on the sdcard? Thank you in advance
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbarth3:
taken from the main a2sd thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=670087

How to tell if it is working:

1. On your computer in the Android SDK Tools directory, type adb shell

2. In the adb shell, type /system/bin/a2sd check

3. Read the report. It will tell you if all is well. If you see anything with [X], type a2sd repair

If you want to move the apps to the SD card (when the program doesn't do it for you or you have moved the apps to the internal storage in the past):

1. Enter the ADB Shell by typing adb shell

2. In the ADB shell, type /system/bin/a2sd install

To prevent A2SD from running, type /system/bin/a2sd remove

If you have any issues, you can PM me for assistance, send e-mail to rtkirton at gmail dot com, or look me up on gtalk.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkirton:
That works with the Darktremor A2SD/Apps2SD. Those procedures have unpredictable results in DamageControl (although it is based on an earlier version of Darktremor, it has been heavily modified and some of the commands aren't working the way they were originally designed). DamageControl uses a GUI interface for its settings (and I'm not sure it has any output checks in it...I would imagine it does).
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkirton:
Normally, you could use a2sd check, but that works for Darktremor Apps2SD.

But, if you go into an adb shell, type the following:

cd /data/app

pwd

If the pwd command returns /data/app, then Apps2SD isn't setup. If it returns /system/sd/app, then you are using the SD card for storage.

Now, I think DamageControl has a setting in the GUI that will allow you to use the SD for dalvik-cache. If so and that is checked, you can check where dalvik-cache is being stored by typing the following commands:

cd /data/dalvik-cache

pwd

Again, if pwd returns /data/dalvik-cache, you are storing dalvik-cache on the SD card. If it shows /system/sd/dalvik-cache, you are storing dalvik-cache on the SD card.

Dalvik-cache takes up a lot of space on the data partition, so if you are running low on space, you could move that cache to the SD card.

Just recently bought a Vox and it has Gonzo's WM6.1 installed.

The battery just stays from 13-18 hours and the phone abruptly shuts down on incoming call.

The radio version is latest 3.10.90 and I am wondering if I downgrade, will there be any effect on extending battery backup?

The battery 1050mAH and it has chinese written all over it except some english for battery rating.

Also which rom update is best with battery backup?

WM6.5 / 6.1 / 6.0 / official WM6.0 ?

I guess I must downgrade to official HTC's WM6.0
[HTC Vox] ktutza2006:
i think the problem is your battery. i have the same rom on my vox, and i have no problem with it. from my experience, the rom is not affecting battery life so much...i don't think that the official rom from htc(wm 6.1 is available on their site) will give you more battery.
