Hook up your nexus with the data cable and write in commandprompt: adb shell logcat

You are gonna need the sdk
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ap3604:
Thanks for looking out for us :)

The only version though that is coming out right now is the frf91 version that everyone has.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyydrr:
Alrighty, I'll do that.

No problem! And yea that's what I thought but I figured I'd check anyway just to be safe.

Anyone been working on a solution to be able to get the X-1 to work with Fords/Microsoft's new automotive system SYNC?

Is there a way to add the missing bluetooth (BPP) protocol or is there another reason the phone doesn't support exporting text's by bluetooth?
[XPERIA X10 General] vatis24:
Greetings from Cyprus,

I just bought the phone before 4 days .

I fully charged for first time Thursday night and by friday night i was with out battery.

After checked the forums for the HELIX -DONUT home i installed yesterday after i fully charged again .

The problem is that before i went to sleep the phone got 50% battery , when i woke up this morning i had 4% ?

That is very strange , i killed all apps and the phone was in standby mode and drained 46% ?

So i guess my problem is the idle ?

Thanks guys , the forums are great and all of your information are useful.

Ok , i dont have to say anything for the phone , its like a God , after playing with it and got in my hands my wife's iphone , the i looked so old:p

Thanks again for your support and for your answers guys.
[XPERIA X10 General] riccoex21:
Hey, I have same with my phone. Try to install o2 german firmware and task manager from apollo and helix donut. That's work for me. I have 2 X10 black and white and now I have 4 days batery. If you wanna help pm.
[XPERIA X10 General] vatis24:
Thank you for the fast reply my dear.

I checked my phone and all said firmware its : 1.6 but no other information , but i remember when i first opened the phone has T- Mobile Germany something.

Is there any trick to see actually what firmware running ?

Thanks again
[XPERIA X10 General] riccoex21:
Go to settings - about - build number. .. tell me with number you have it.
[XPERIA X10 General] vatis24:
Hey again ,

I just rooted my phone , maybe i will give a try also now to the set cpu battery save settings.

Firmware Version : 1.6

Baseband Version : 1.0.24

If your particular ROM has a non-HTC bootanimation and you wish to return to the original HTC 'Quietly Brilliant' version just do this...

Copy the appended file to the tools directory of android-sdk on your desktop PC. If you don't have android-sdk Google, download and install it.

Connect your phone by USB to your PC; select Synchronize on your phone when prompted and wait for the phone to settle and OK any prompts.

On your PC, open an xterm window on linux or run cmd -w on Windoze to get a terminal window

cd to your android-sdk/tools directory -Replace your own path in the following line!!!

cd /usr/bin/android-sdk-linux_86/tools

(the following commands are for linux; for windoze miss off the ./)

./adb kill-server
./adb start-server
./adb remount

the following line moves bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.bak so you have a backup of the ROM customiser's artwork.[

./adb shell mv /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.bak

now we are going to upload the HTC bootanimation.zip to replace the one we've just renamed and set file permissions.

./adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/
./adb shell chmod 0644 /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip

just to check...

./adb shell ls -la /system/customize/resource/boot*

should show two lines for bootanimation.bak and bootanimation.zip with each line starting -rw-r--r--

When you reboot your phone you should now have HTC's animation.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Just remember the bootanimation is not located in system/.... Sometimes it's located in data/local and in SenseHero it's located in system/media/bootscreen and then it's gif files so this doesen't work for SenseHero ;) Nice guide BTW :p Also have you thaught about putting it into an update.zip to make it easier?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
Thanks .. I should have said this was really for Villain 12 Rom.

I'm still finding my way and haven't learnt to do that yet!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Here is an update_signed.zip of that bootanimation.zip. :)

I just signed it, didn't test.

EDIT: This places the bootanimation.zip to /system/media/bootanimation.zip
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
To work on the Villain Rom - bootanimation.zip must be in /system/customize/resource/

The signed update may well work with other roms?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
actually that doesen't work for any ROMs. No ROMs has bootanimation.zip located there;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
Have a look at this thread as 1.5 bootscreens do actually work on 2.1 ROMs.

(You need to know where the bootanimation.zip is stored on your ROM first, as this needs to be removed.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
A signed update zip is appended which will return the Villain 12 Rom to HTC's 'Quietly Brilliant' animation.

This is ONLY for Villain 12. It over writes Villains boot animation so if you want to keep that as an alternative the adb push method above will be better.

It has been tested.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iMicky:
Thanks a lot, I've been trying to change my boot logo for some time now but didn't realise that VillainROM's was in a different location. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I know that but no 2.1 ROM has the bootanimation stored there...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
At least that's where it is on VanillaEclair and CyanogenMod. :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Oh... Didn't know that... I've never had a Vanilla ROM running on my phone:p At least no 2.1 Sense ROMs has it stored there;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
That is irrelevant, as it will work from /system/media in any ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] manachinmaniac:
Can somebody sum up instructions to change the bootscreen on a VillainROM 12 for the GSM Hero? Things are getting a bit messy...:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
I've started so I'll finish...

VillainRom puts bootanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource. It is the second boot screen to load.

To replace the VillainRom bootanimation with HTC's 'Quietly Brilliant' just run the update file appended.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Not by default?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
It will if you remove the current bootscreen from wherever it is located, yes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Okay that's what I thaught:) What I meant with the first post was that if you just flash it i'ts not going to change the bootanimation straight away unless you put the bootanimation.zip in the folder where it's located by default:p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
That's right yes. You need to remove the old one first. If it is a bootanimation.zip from 2.1 it needs to go where the original one was located. If it is a bootscreen folder from 1.5, it needs to go in /system/media.

Even if you flash an update.zip from 1.5 to change the bootscreen in a 2.1 ROM, you need to delete the bootanimation.zip from wherever the dev has located it in your ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
I am currently running VillianROM 12.0.0 and have just flashed the HTC bootanimation file without removing the original bootanimation.zip file.

Thought I would try this to see what would happen. I backed up my phone then flashed the update, rebooted and the new HTC boot screen was there.

I just checked and the original bootanimation is still in it folder, system/customize/resource.

I'm running a pretty clean install,only a few days old.

Hopefully this helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
If you file you flashed contains a bootanimation.zip and the update script tells it to put it in that folder, it will just replace the old one. I'm guessing that is the case here.

To flash a 1.5 bootscreen, the bootanimation.zip would definately have to be deleted, as it has priority on boot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
As I am very new to this, I am unsure, The file I flashed was the "update_sign.zip"

I only rooted my phone early this week and VillianROM 12 is the third rom I have tried. This forum is a great source of information.

My first impressions are quite positive.

Choice is a great thing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
Correct. To be definitive, that is the case with update_sign.zip. The new bootanimation (HTC's) simply overwrites Villain's.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
^^^

Precisely!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] the7thcolumn:
So now im super cofnused are we doing this through adb or via the update. Can someone help with this im fairly new and want to change my boot screen.

Im running VillianROM12

I tried just copying the bootscreen into:

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/

But now my screen (the 2nd one) is just black.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
Normally, if you have Villain, then do it via the update_signed.zip because it is usually easier; but both methods will work.

Roms other than Villain's may either not use a file called bootanimation.zip or may store it in some other place than /system/customize/resource; largely it is that that has caused the confusion.

For the record, you appear to have stopped following the instructions in my original post and have missed out giving the copied file the correct permissions to run, via:-

adb chmod 0644 /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip

Hence your system can't run it and your screen is black.

Since you have the file copied across already, you're half-way finished. Why not just run the little bit of code above?

If you still screw up then just run update_signed.zip.

If you want to know about 'chmod', short for 'change mode', and the process of setting read -write and execute permission for files on Linux systems - (Android OS in our case), try Googling.

It really is easy folks - if you just follow the instructions one line at a time 'til the end.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] croques:
the line should be

adb shell chmod 0644 /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
[Touch Cruise Android Development] nawashy:
Hi there,

I have tried multiple distributions, all running using haret.

the last one I had tried is Kallt_kaffe and DZO Froyo RLS2. they are great, bit slow but great.

the only problem I have is there is a phone ring delay

for the ringtones already installed there is a 3 ring delay with any ringtone. but If i use an mp3 ringtone the other party disconnect without me hearing a single ring.

I'm not sure where is the problem I'm using Pcarvalho 23557.5.5.0, I'm not sure which version of radio but I guess it's the latest one.

can anybody help me to elaminate the ring delay

thanks in advance

Hey guys.

I had enough of the gallery app on my N1. I would like to replace it with something that doesn't take forever to load and it can use more than 16 bit for displaying images. It should look professional as well.

Any suggestions?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watercool:
Justpictures worked great for me in the past, but did not use it for a while now. Dev responds almost instantly to new suggestions.

[Android Apps and Games] pozer69:
I was wondering if anyone was thinking about developing an app for RDP, in particular FreeNX/NoMachine NX. I currently use ConnectBot to SSH into my server and androidVNC to remote in to my desktop and it is very sluggish, I am under the impression that RDP is faster than VNC. Thanks for any advice.

[Android Apps and Games] Kirbysuperstar:
Yeah uh, that'd get you absolutely no info on NX.
[Android Apps and Games] mdneilson:
Oh, sorry. I thought you were just looking for an RDP client and those were simply examples, not request.
[Android Apps and Games] pozer69:
Yeah it didn't help much but that was a funny animation! I was looking if anyone intended on porting NX Client to Android.

[G1 General] Blackman778g:
First off we have many Sense ports... use the search feature and you will see many ROMs. Firerat has a couple of patches for them as well. And King release new Sense ROM's??? I always saw them come out after Vega's rom and the Slide2G1 by Firat or the one by Zach.

Just saying....
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Sense? You actually WANT ugly, slow, bloat?
[G1 General] :
Dude really, you post TWO threads about this king thing? Please, it's getting really tiring. Don't release sense, then, that isn't going to make me cry.
[XPERIA X10 General] :
Video Calling activation on x10i, is this possible after root?

regards ec
[XPERIA X10 General] damirbusic:
And how do you plan to make a video call without front camera ?????? Read specs of the phone people...
[XPERIA X10 General] fadimck:
it can be done easily by the rear camera !!

it is working with the C905 (please Know the SE history).
[XPERIA X10 General] fadimck:
currently it is not available but one of our great developers can do it

the concept is there, if you downloaded Fring application from the Market you will be able to perform Video Calls over the Skype (through Fring)
[XPERIA X10 General] damirbusic:
But that has no use, you must look at back camera and you cannot see the person with who are you talking...
[XPERIA X10 General] Fuzalert2k:
Well you can carry a mirror with you and point the rear camera to that.

[XPERIA X10 General] tuxStyle:
Mirror?

Hahahaha :)) good one....
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
You can already do video calling with Fring, using Skype. No root required.

I heard root enabled X-ray vision on the camera, I ride the train a lot here in Japan, will come in handy.
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
I just bring a picture of whoever I'm talking to, and look at that.

It's just like video calling but better.

Sometimes I bring a picture of the Queen, and pretend I'm actually taking to her.

People on the train are amazed I know the Queen.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Aren't we a sarcastic bunch today!

I just close my eyes and imagine what the caller looks like.. It's cheaper that way.
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
Lol this thread is funny. But on a serious note, why can't we use the front camera?

P.S - My first post on XDA Forum :)
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Mostly because there is no front camera. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
What are you saying? there is no front camera on X10? I thought that black thing is the front camera.
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
It's the proximity sensor or the ambient light sensor. Don't remember exactly what, but it's no camera.
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
I always thought it's the front camera. I can't believe this. Skype is going to come up with video calls on mobile phones and we can't use that feature now. How come X10 does not have front camera while almost all new phones have front camera. X1i has front camera lol
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
My guess is that SE has found that it's not used enough to warrant the extra cost. We've been doing videocalling here in .se for a few years and it hasn't really caught on. Even with free video-calling the uptake has been slow so they probably decided that the cost outweighed the benefits.
[XPERIA X10 General] Anandc:
That makes sense.

Thank you
[HD2 General] desmo_due:
I tried to compare my hd2 with my friend's one and...

my phone has less brightness than the other phone with the very same config: same rom, same apps, same pictures, ecc...

my screen is a little bit more "yellow" than the other one. it is noticeable particularly in white images: the colour of my hd2 is warm. the hd2 of my friend has cold color.

the question is: it's a normal thing in lcd production or should i contact assistance?

thank you.
[HD2 General] Marct77:
Did you make sure the screen brightness settings were the same ?

settings/sound and display/backlight/backlight adjustment.

Perhaps one of you hasn't got 'Automatically adjust backlight' ticked ??
[HD2 General] desmo_due:
Hi bro..

surely i set both phones at 100% brightness "fix"
[HD2 General] BumAround:
contact whoever you can contact, and try to get a replacement if your warranty is still valid.
[HD2 General] desmo_due:
thank you for the advise my friend!
[HD2 General] elburna:
HTC might have changed the producer for their screens during the whole time they build the HD2. This would not be unusual as many developers do this...
[Android Apps and Games] BeRo1985:
Hello@all

i've submitted the android version of BeRoXM into the android market as adbased freeware today, see http://www.androidpit.com/en/android/market/apps/app/com.bero.multimedia.beroxm/BeRoXM or directly on a android smartphone/superphone market://search?q=pname:com.bero.multimedia.beroxm but the CPU should be a fast once, optimal are >=1 GHz Devices like the Google Nexus One, HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy S, and so on, at least i've tested it on my Google Nexus One and my Samsung Galaxy S and in some days i will test it on my old Motorola Milestone(/Droid) with slower CPU. And on T-Mobile G1 it will not run, because the ARM CPU of the G1 has no VFP floating point instruction support.

It plays MOD, WOW and XM (together with BeRoTracker and (Open)ModPlug Extensions, for example Filter effects with MIDI macro template backend, Stereo Samples, ADPCM-compressed Samples, and so on).

And the buffersize is hardcoded in the moment, and "can be" suboptimal for some devices. But i will make a setting for that in the future.

And who want, that I should porting my feature-overkill BeRoTracker Playerengine (MOD/STM/S3M/XM/IT/BRT/IMF/MTM/MT2/WOW/669/DMF/MIDI/etc.) to Android, must hope, pray or donate Because that would will be a bigger laborious task, because the BRT Engine in the current state uses only floating point for the whole DSP mixing stuff, which I would must change it then to integer fixedpoint mixing or optimzing for the ARM NEON instruction set for a optimal perfomance on embedded ARM CPUs. But until this will occuring and if if that happens at all, BeRoXM is anyway a compromise, I think.

So have fun with BeRoXM

PS. For those who has ideas, I'm open for suggestions, feature requests, better GUI design ideas, etc.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
I don't know why but the default launcher really must be the cause of the blackouts and lag people are experiencing. Even with Taskmanager auto killing my apps I still got hickups in the UI. Installing launcher pro completely solved the issue for me so if you haven't tried that yet give it a shot. Cool thing is you can still use the samsung icons if you like. I know there is a thread about using a ram hack with launcherpro but that's not necessary to fix the blackout issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bookwormat:
I had launcher pro installed for the first 3 days I had the phone - It is a great launcher, but it did not help me at all with the blackouts.

The blackouts and lag is not a constant problem. I had the phone running fine for hours, running multiple applications, and then suddenly it starts to slow down and i stare into a black screen for 3-15 seconds.

I'm waiting to see if there is any new firmware in the next days that fixes this. I have 3 more weeks in which I can return the device to amazon, and except for the blackouts it is a very good mobile.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mark99uk:
Why would you have 3 weeks before returning it ? I thought once you buy from most online stores, you can return the phone unused within 7 days, not try it out and return it within a month . . I would love to have the option to try this can you confirm please
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ariozo:
Did not have alot off lag/blackouts on my Sgs even on Firemware FJ3, but when i did uppgrade to the new firmware i notice the litle i had was gone. And also with my 3g working all day and i do sms,mail and call quite alot battery Easy make it from 7 on the morning till i put in charger like 12-01 at night and then battery has been over 30% all times so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bookwormat:
EU law gives every customer the right to return a product that he bought online within 14 days after he got it. Amazon.de additionally has a "return guarantee", in which you can return the product within 30 days of purchase.

Within the 14 days period you can use the product, as long as you do not damage it.

The 30 days "return guarantee" from amazon says that the product must be "unused and unharmed", but as long as you give it back in the same state you received it, you're fine.
