[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
by the way I'm sure people have posted that lwp doesn't work...

it works fine, just flash the update.zip for it from the other thread, I did it a few days ago and it worked fine, I did it last night on 07-05 and it works fine (although did one self reboot close to the end of the reboot process the first time after flashing).

For people considering using this rom, it's truly excellent, fast, super stable, reliable and battery life is really good. FWIW, bluetooth connect/disconnect is faster with this rom than any other I've ever used - it's finally about as good as it was 3 years ago with my old razr v3 LoL)

However here's a list of what is still incomplete from my point of view:

- camera (obviously - I know that's a tricky problem to solve though and work is in progress)

- improvements in voice signal quality (I thought it was better after my last flash of 07-05 over radio .11 but after plenty of use yesterday it's still clearly not as good as with other roms unless signal level is pretty good (and no this isn't in my imagination). People have trouble hearing me often in places where my signal level isn't really strong, but flashing vr12 still gives me great sound quality sending/receiving in same exact location).

- some discussion about why apps like Google Sky Maps don't install (if it's just not froyo compatible then fine, but I would have guessed it would be since it's from Google and used as one of their demo apps quite often)

- apps2sd (update: I've read that this works in the latest builds, but I'm sticking with 07-05 until later builds are more mature and I know the apps2sd technique won't be changing again... I don't want to go through that ;-)

- any improvements in gallery3d performance (I COULD be imagining this... but it seems like it takes a really long time to update thumbs and open images and so on... maybe I'm being tougher on it since it appears by default to be the only supplied media viewer, on 2.1 roms I typically have the older gallery also which is always much faster)

- auto brightness (update: heard this works in latest builds)

- the browser with the incognito window menu option isn't in there, at least not in the 07-05 build. I read about this feature in cyan 6.0 info on the web... will we be getting this?

- while sound is routed through media path in the audio mixer the hard volume controls still control ringer volume, not media volume. makes volume changing during audio/video/gaming impossible without a popup app and/or returning to home page and starting volume control app (or of course home->settings for those legacy types ;-).

Camera Magic

According to this post hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7117930#post7117930 Camera Magic should be working on CM6 Alpha Preview test0 - 03/07

I'm running CM6 Hero Nightly 2010-07-05_18h26 but getting FCs, can't even start the app. Anyone else on a (different) Nightly Build having better luck with Camera Magic?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
as I posted earlier in this thread, all the nightlys have cameras disabled. my educated guess as to why camera magic tries to work still and why it worked in the first place is that it likely circumvents the "correct" official way of talking to the camera. Which would also make sense as to why it's fcing now - without using the android stack to communicate with the camera it's also missing out on the error message the correct could would generate.

So I'll say it yet again, there are no working cameras in any nightly builds yet.

I hightly recommended people search the thread before trying these nightly builds - you might save yourself some valuable time flashing a rom that has no camera or worse :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bigc_13:
I just flashed the 5-7 build and i'm having trouble getting my contacts to sync, i trying importing them from the sd card but it after its done importing, it still says i have no contacts, i've tried rebooting and still no contacts, anyone got an idea of what i can do?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] miessos:
Actually... I did save myself some valuable time flashing this build 'cause it's great for daily use and simply rocks with a little setcpu :) So instead of flashing another (2.1) ROM once a day I'm already running this build for almost 5 days and I'm still flabbergasted how smooth it runs for a nightly build on my Hero.

Sorry that I missed your post and made you hit your keyboard - and maybe your head - again and thanks for your educated guess ;)

Cheers!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mikeytjee:
I've tried.most of the nightly builds and all of them have the same problem, my WiFi connects but there is no data transfer :( any one know what the problem might be, also i cannot install apps .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] simoncheung:
i have the same problem about wifi
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I had that problem when apps2sd was enabled in early nightly builds. disabling it using the terminal command line might help?

but I run 05-07 and I ahve perfect wifi. almost everything is great actually. kids are playing wave blazer on it right now and 3d performance and game gyro performance are awesome.

I don't know why people are having issues with gaming etc in the new builds, I wonder what the devs are doing? my 3d performance is terrific, but media 3d gallery is semi-broken and fcs but it's the only really startling app issue I have.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Blue-K:
Just in case that some people missed it: The official buildbot of Teamdouche will now (also?) build the nightly builds.

hxxp://buildbot.teamdouche.net/nightly/hero/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] b0z0:
I've installed the latest nightly available from teamdouche build bot, and I'm glad to see that the kernel problems seems to have been corrected. However, it seems that the LED is not notifying me anymore when I get an email or a SMS (however, I'm pretty sure that the LED works when I'm charging my phone). Is there any setting I'm missing ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rootbox00:
I have the same problem on CM6 alpha0. (alpha0 and nightly from bulid bot the same versions, view changelog: http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_hero/commits/froyo)

Do you have ADW Launcher or stock 2.2 Launcher?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] b0z0:
Unlike the latest Lox's built, the nightly builds are still using ADWLauncher (which I like better than the stock one), so ADWLaucher for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alioooop:
if i want to flash the latest nightly, should i flash the kernal mentioned in this thread or can i use the one i have allready?

I haven't used any of these, but have been keeping an eye on it. Just wanted to say,... MAXISMA... you are a credit to the whole android community man,... keep up the good work bruv.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cheers dude, totally understand and I agree, this is an amazing project. I'm running 2.1 vanilla for the last 2 days and am shocked at poor battery life, unstable this, unstable that, take yer pick: slow UI resonsiveness OR FCing camera depending on which vanilla build I choose LoL.

I need a camera in 4 days... so might end up on villain 12 again for my trip. it seems the only stable, fast, fun alternative to it in the major roms is this froyo alpha stuff (I'm ignoring slide builds etc for now, just personal choice).

I might be back to froyo this morning!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] miessos:
Maybe a little bit OT but when I was on 2.1 I had great fun with ChocolateEclair 1.0.1. Very snappy and stable. Seems there is a new version 1.1 but didn't flashed it yet since I'm more then happy with Lox's latest Alpha Preview. Simply flies :) With almost all the froyo features included. And the cam working without a preview... well, I'll let it take me by surprise ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekinnee:
So I just ordered a Nexus One. I currently have an EVO and had a Hero with Sprint. Having used Android for a while now I'm growing tired of Sense.

I know much of our reason to root and run a ROM is to get rid of Sense, what's the point with rooting and ROMming an N1? I guess for me the answer could be as simple as "There is no point for me to root." How about you?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ap3604:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hercules71035:
Hi, I own a fujitsu Siemes pocket look T830 and would like to install android. As my old device I do not expect you to change the rom for this device, so I wonder if the hardware would support any of this ppc android and how I could do (roughly) to adapt an existing Rom (eg for some HTC) with slight modifications. Perhaps my request may seem silly or exaggerated, but asking never hurt anyone! :-)

Thank you.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DraginMagik:
you are looking for a "Widget". a widget displays active information on your desktop. There are several calendar widgets available for free in the Android marketplace.

i use "Smooth Calendar".

if you use a site like AppBrain.com then you even search for "calendar widget". (do not include the quotes)

I use CalWidget. Free in the market and infinitely customizable. Not quite 'pretty', but best I've found for what your looking to do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ae11:
my TP2 has stopped turning the screen off automatically. i don't know what triggered the change but the screen doesn't turn of automatically anymore after I use the phone, or if it gets activated in anyway (receiving an SMS, a phone call, ...). i check the settings/system/power and 'Turn off backlight if device is not used for' is selected with the time set to 30 seconds. however thebacklight never turns off. any ideas how to fix this? thanks much!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dragonlord785:
this happened to me a while ago as well, sadly the only way i was able to fix it was by doing a hard reset. but maybe someone else will know a better way to fix it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ae11:
thanks. a hard reset would be a last resort! i have many tweaks and too many apps to give up on easily. any other solutions out there?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] magnil:
I have the same problem but mine also turns on itself! When I turn it off with key it takes appr. 10 seconds and then it turns itself on. This does not happen all the time but when it has started I do not know how to stop it but it stops itself after a while. Soft reset does not help.

Have tried hard reset and then it use to wor a few days then it comes back. Very frustrating as it drains the battery fast.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
1) You have posted in the wrong forum.

2) Market works fine in 2.2 unless you flashed one of the pre-release builds.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randalla0622:
I'm having the same, or very similar problems. Basically, I'm seeing paid apps, and my purchases, but I'm not seeing the "Top Paid" tab, nor is the Market acting in any sane or rational way. For example, I install an app, and the notification bar will say downloading, then installing, then the notification that it installed. In the Market download window, though, I see it download, then switch to installing, but never get beyond that.

What started all this with me was this. Using Linda File Manager, I uninstalled a couple of apps (was trying out the feature since I was in there). In this case, it was Google Earth (don't really use it), and a Pirate game that I never grocked. Anyway, in the Market they wouldn't leave my list in the Downloads, so I wiped the cache and data in the Market app in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications.

After that, all my apps appeared as uninstalled in the downloads window, and the issue with installation started. First thing I did was try and reinstall all the apps, and ended up with a huge list of apps that were installed, but were marked as still installing by the market. Killing the market app cleared out the hung install progress bars. The other thing that started happening was that not all of my installed apps appeared in my download list. KO Boxing, for example was on the featured list as upgradable, but it wasn't in my download list to upgrade.

Ultimately, what I decided to do was wipe the phone and see what happened. After wipe, I logged in and FRF91 didn't restore my apps like it had in the past. In fact, the market was exactly the same as it was before the wipe, with all my apps showing as free or purchased. Installing issue was also the same. Now, I know that Google backs up the settings, so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I wiped again, but in the configuration process post-wipe, I selected for Google to not restore from backup (hit menu in the setup when you are entering your username/password). This brought me through the process much quicker, but with no change in the market function.

So, I'm still without a "Top Paid" tab, nor with a all together sane Download window. It's frustrating the heck out of me, and I'm about to go back to whatever the 2.1-r1 release was (ERE27?) and see if that makes any different.

The ROM I'm running is the FRF91 full release from lox_dev:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715799

If T-Mobile is doing the OTA's to FroYo from 2.1-r1, then maybe I'll let it do it's own thing today and then see if that fixes it. Ugh.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
The above snipped sections are my story too.

Updated last week manually from ERE27 to FRF85b to FRF91 using the official stock clients each time. Non rooted N1. I spent 6 hours on Friday night trying to sort this..

I've got posts up on the Google Nexus One forums also and am holding where I am for a definitive fix. It's very frustrating though..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herrwinkler:
Go to menu>applications> magage applications> all apps> market then force quit and clear data and whatever else is in there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
I tried that on Friday night. Once I'd done that, none of my installed apps showed in the Downloads section.

That's why I did a full wipe and set the phone back up. Luckily I was still able to find all my apps, including the purchased ones. However the missing 'Top Paid' button and slow market performance persisted.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randalla0622:
So, for fun, I pushed back to ERE27 (2.1-r1) and same issue. No "Top Paid" in the Market, and issues with installation. This is complete wipe, nothing installed on the phone after imaging.

I let it upgrade to FRF91, which didn't change anything. I'm now pretty convinced that whatever this is is completely account related on the Google server side of things, and it needs to be sorted out by them :(

Guess I'll have to figure out who to contact for support from Google :/

Adam.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
I'm working the Google angle also plus have posts on several forums and watches on more.

Please can you keep this thread updated with your progress and I'll do the same.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
randalla0622

I've made contact with Google via email and this is now being investigated.

I'm sending them a summary of the problems I've been having and pointing them at various threads both here and in the Market so that they can see how widespread this problem is.

I've also tried a full hard reset and cache wipe without luck. My belief is that this is something that Google need to sort server-side, so I'm done with my wiping and reinstalling for now...

http://www.google.com/support/forum...cf&hl=en&fid=3ca03be96dee2acf00048b7ba12255b5

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyouko:
nope, no way. you have to flash something like Fresh 2.1 and do it using that rom.

So nandroid backup what you have right now > wipe/flash Fresh2.1 > update profile/prl > wipe > nandroid restore your darchdroid backup.

btw, just sayin, but if u read thru just part of the DD2.7 thread you would've seen plenty of people asking the same question - getting the same response. Unfortunately with his AOSP roms its not an option.

Hi,

I purchased an HD2 from Europe when they 1st came out, signed up with T-Mobile (a few Monthe later) to see how I'd like it as a phone (intended on using it as a PDA initially) and them dropped the T-Mobile service after about 4 Months.

Question is, will the phone still connect to 911 without a service provider and is a SIM card required to be installed (with or without active service)?

Thanks for your help!

[HD2 General] Phantoms:
Keep the phone with you. Next time you see an accident, call 911 from it to report it. A legal way to find out if it works or not.
[HD2 General] mhmobile:
Thanks for the suggestion...
[HD2 General] reocej:
911 service works from any cell phone with or without sim card or service as long as you are within range of a compatible network. Its a law. When you place a 911 call from cellular device it will place call on first available network.
[HD2 General] alex fung:
Yes, but 112 is the international standard. Works in any country. Any carrier that has a band your phone supports will route it to the emergency services. I think it goes to the strongest signal, but I don't kwow what happens if your own carrier is present but not the strongest. And 112 calls are never locked (that is, you can always call 112 even when the phone is PIN locked). I'm not sure whether 911 has the same priviledge.
[HD2 General] mhmobile:
Thanks all!

I'm no developer so i have really no idea if this would work.

But, as this mobile is a AMOLED screen, each pixels are lighted up and so not much battery is drained on a black screen.

What if we could somehow make something when a new sms has not been read and screen turns of, a black screen like this appears

Is something like this possible?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] isangelous:
I think to display a message on screen the machine would need to be awake, so it would be using more power than with an led notification (afaik the device can normally go to sleep then).

Your idea would still save power over just showing the lock screen though because you are right that using fewer pixels would proportionally reduce power usage of the screen.

I guess the hardest part would be making the device appear off - It would need to ignore screen and button touches (except power).
