I'm disappointed it's not available for download now. I was all excited reading about it and then realised it's not even out yet.

It can only be a good thing and the app market can easily be changed to filter out the inevitable rubbish it will partly create. However a lot of useful and ingenious apps will also be created that wouldn't have been (like the one I will make). ;)
[Android Software Development] Tachikoma_kun:
I'm looking forward to it, there's a few things I want to make that aren't in the marketplace. Just wondering what sort of functionality we will be allowed, if I can make my own task manager/battery monitor widgets for example.
[Android Software Development] saj222:
I like the idea too.

Hopefully this doesn't lead to a glutton of bad apps on the market!
[Android Software Development] Tachikoma_kun:
Depending on how functional it is, we might never need the market ever again. Half an hour making your own app vs half an hour searching the market and trying half a dozen bloated ad-ridden apps.
[Android Software Development] rawdikrik:
But its already pretty powerful... and bound to get better.

Yeah... But who knows, Maybe that TINY niche need is something else that someone might want to use and then that ends up bing a profitable app. Not because It makes a ton of dough, but because it was so quick and easy to make.

Im using it right now.If you read the actual website... there are links to all the tools and how to use them.

This is always a potential. With ease of programming comes more apps, and with more apps comes more Bad apps. But if this helps one person make one useful app, its done its job.

I really hope to get good with this, and maybe have alot of community support here... this could very wellbe a powerful tool for noob developers.
[Android Software Development] thelamacmdr:
IDK though, I wouldn't think anything could ever replace actually typing out code as opposed to using blocks which is what it seems like App Inventor does.
[Android Software Development] strelly:
Could you be a bit more specific on how you got the final 'my projects' section working?

i have installed everything.. and the final stage it requests my details (which i had previously filled in)
[Android Software Development] Biffy:
When I login I get: "We will be granting access to App Inventor for Android over the coming weeks. Fill out this form (only your Gmail address is required) and we’ll have you building apps soon! While you are waiting feel free to read more about App Inventor and learn how it works."

Have been all over the http://appinventor.googlelabs.com/about/ website and can't find any links to download or use tools. Am in the UK so maybe that is the problem.
[Android Software Development] ezeygtr40:
Same here with me. Maybe they need to verify our info and then give us the links to download
[Android Software Development] v1nsai:
Its in beta right now, so like most great Google things in their infancy it is invite only.

App inventor looks wicked, reminds me of Visual Basic only useful since it works on platforms besides Windows >:-)
[Android Software Development] galaxys:
I think this is a progressive idea! :cool:

But hope the market stays as clean as possible with QA Apps!
[Android Software Development] djeanhimself:
I made a simple app (send an SMS).

- Made it using the app inventor : Apk file takes 1MB and once installed, the apps takes 3.5MB of space!!! (whitch cannot be moved to SD, even with Froyo)

- I made the same app "the normal way" with the android sdk and eclipse : the apk file takes 13KB and the installed app takes 20KB
[Android Software Development] settlethestorm:
I heard that when its released, all the apps will not be put on the market right away... in the future... maybe, but that'll prob be after Google makes a filter as to which apps can be put on the market. Not to mention, the Google $25 market upload fee will still apply, so even if Google doesn't filter, it won't completely flood the market.
[Android Software Development] digitallysane:
I suppose it's to be expected. As with all tools of this type, you get ease and speed when developing but you also get a huge runtime when compiling.

Dragos
[Android Software Development] djeanhimself:
Aint normal IMO...

The compiler knows which objects it has to take in account when building the package.

I mean it's not a big deal to include only what is necessary...

Anyway, that size problem (added to some interface bugs i encountered) makes me believe that this project is far from being usable.

By now, the only use I'd make would be prototyping views on it.
[Android Software Development] Skye Menjou:
It's in BETA for a reason.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Big_O:
The market has nothing for AT&T! Just had the att account app that shows the bill and data usage etc, but since the phone flash lost it. The market doesn't show it anymore and sure I found it there some weeks ago. Anyone have the apk or know where to find it?

Thanks a lot! This app makes things easier to manage. Appreciate the apk :).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miker33:
Hiya,

Was racing at the weekend and took several pics\vids while there, suddenly my video clip folder dissappeared and then the DCIM folder vanished also. Thought immed that the SD card was faulty but when I used a file recovery prog got everything back including the folder structure and the prog listed the data as deleted rather than corrupted.

Then used H2TestW to run multiple tests on the SD card which it has so far passed 10 times so a little confused as to if it's a card problem or a phone problem.

Has anyone else seen this happen before?

The card is a Kingston Class 10 16GB and the phone is running stock UK firmware.

Cheers,

Mike
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferenc54:
SD Card Problem

Hi!

I have something similar to your problem. For unknown reason my Samsung i9000 Galaxy S has lost contact with my SD Card. The phone does not see the card. As a result, the camera does not work, since there is not enough memory. I have formatted the SD Card on my computer, but still there is no result. I am trying to read around about this problem, but quite helpless at the moment.:mad:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Coburn64:
What is the limitations of us porting ROMs from the Droid to the Milestone? Based on my research, both platforms are the same and the hardware is either identical or silimar (but 99% matching, with the exception of the Droid's CDMA radio).

I'd really like to see CyanogenMod on the Milestone, I think it would be a great ROM to have a play with. I just wanted to ask you guys and girls about it, before I run off and blow things up.

Please, no n00b comments. I know the Milestone and Droid are different (Milestone has a 600Mhz CPU and the Droid has a 550Mhz CPU?) and they both are GSM and CDMA respectively, but yeah.

Cheers,

Coburn.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] xslntx:
You're right, they are extremely similar devices. The primary reason why this isn't possible is due to the locked bootloader - various checks are in place to make sure that the phone will only boot a kernel specifically built for the Milestone by Motorola.

Attempting to flash any Droid rom will result in a device that won't boot - you'll have to flash it with a stock sbf or with a nandroid backup, if your recovery still works.

A small correction, both the Droid and Milestone have identical CPUs. They're both 600MHz Cortex A8's, underclocked to 550MHz.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] beju69:
Yes, it will be possible when OUR bootloader will be unlocked. Works around KEXEC gave to us hope :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] springah:
im still a nub when it comes to this moto stuff - how is the milestone bootloader being locked different to the dext?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Qazz~:
Weird, u said its an A8 processor but an app I have called OSmonitor states that it an ARMV7, unless their just the same...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] 0mega1:
ARM is the instruction set (What the CPU says)

Cortex A8 is the model number (What the CPU is)

The Milestone is dumb. It's a brilliant phone, but dumb.

A bad headphone jack, crippling lack of an unlocked bootloader, and silly reboots/wake up problems prohibit it from being epic.

Everything else is amazing.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dodotech:
Thats not so correctly !

In Europe is that not possible because its the different between GSM and CDMA !!

The Droid have CDMA and the Milestone in Europe have GSM ! Iam loocking for the develop Bootloader to flash other Roms on Milestone !!

When everybody have a idea or the answer ....pleas send me an PN !!

My friend is writing his new Programm its called recalc !! News comming soon .....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] federicoponl:
i've pm you the link with the developer bootloader.

best regards
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] XVilka:
(no n00b comment mode) all discussions about locking/unlocking of milestone - must be only after you read info from this site http://and-developers.com/motorola_milestone

Enjoy! :)

P.S. developer bootloader (mbm v.90.80 dont let for you run unsigned kernel. seriously.) and if you try flash it - you can just brick your phone. You warned.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] inazrabuu:
Dear All,

I have myTouch3g 32B. I have installed a new ROM to replace the original one. I used flashRec & RA recovery the first time I do back up & flash. Now, I want to install a new ROM, should I do back up again, or I can just install the update.zip?

Thank you in advance.
[Windows Mobile] awsome101:
I have now been able to build a stable osKitchen 1.30 with OS 23569 and Sense 2016. I am now in the process of customising the ROM. I would like to set a default wallpaper.

I am now looking to set the lock screen wallpaper. Does anybody know how to do this? I have tried changing the HTC_stwater_400_800.jpg and the HTC_stwater_800_400.jpg files bit it then does not load any image at all.

Can any body help out?
[Windows Mobile] awsome101:
Can anybody help with this, it is driving me nuts!
[Windows Mobile] williyung:
1. You've made a mistake. Your wallpaper.png is located in \My Documents\My Wallpapers, but your "HomeBackgroundPath" is point to diff location (\\my documents\\my pictures\\)

2. You will need this reg too:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"DefaultHomeBackgroundPath"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\wallpaper.png"
[Windows Mobile] awsome101:
That was one thing I did pick up on and made the change. The interesting thing is it is not adding the value \my documents\my wallpapers\wallpaper.png to the HomeBackgroundPath key which is strange. I am currently building with your sugestion. I will let you know if it works!
[Windows Mobile] awsome101:
Dude you are awsome! I made the changes as you suggested and wallpaer was set as default when I first turned on the phone. I am now working on the lock screen wallpaper and trying to see if I can get the reg keys for those as well!

Cheers for your help man I wouldn't have got that in a million years! :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] lance713:
Very weird problem here. The phone will boot into the OS just fine but whenever I try to boot into the recovery to flash a rom... it just hangs on the MT3G screen.

I've tried re-flashing RA 1.7.0G and the clockwork, same problem.

It's a 32B if that makes any difference.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Jimmy Conley:
I had this same problem where the recovery partition on the phone went corrupt on me. I have the same phone and carriuer as you. I read and read for a fix. The one that eventually worked for me was repeatedly trying to flash Amon RA 1.7.0 through rom manager. That was also what cause the problem seeing as I ran out of ram flashing it through there. I also tried fastboot and failed (I was able to do it once it was back up). and terminal and adb. GOOD LUCK MAN.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] azzzz:
Much thanks for this advice...I didn't want to have to start all over again...I was able to get Amon's recovery working again by keeping retrying the flash...loll...it finally work...NOt messing with Rom Manager no more....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] lannister80:
I had this happen to me today on RC1. I stupidly flashed Clockwork Recovery from within ROM Manager, only to discover that it wouldn't boot into recovery and just sat at the green MyTouch boot screen.

I was able to flash Amon_RA from within ROM Manager (the phone sat there for like 10 minutes before finally saying "Flash Successful!" or whatever), and I was then able to load RC2 without issue, clear the dalvik-cache, etc.

Never touching ROM Manager again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] scfreshy:
I did the same thing. (Tried to flash Clockwork Recovery from within ROM Manager.) I haven't ever done a recovery like this...but I figured since it was an option on ROM Manager that everything would be fine and dandy. It wasn't. Hung at MT3G screen when booting into recovery. Flashed AMON_RA from ROM Manager and everything works now. No more ROM manager for me!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] aeok18109:
my phine (1st gen mytouch 3g) is rooted and has the current 5.08 blah blah version of cyanogenmod. i downloaded the new version today and tried flashing via rom manager (again a 1st timer with this app) and figured it would work. gets stuck at green mytouch logo. i will keeo trying to flash the amon ra back. the only laptop i have access too doesnt recognize any android phone so i cant transfer files back and forth >_< not a fun day

on the other hand it boots fine after about 20 min into cyanogen 5.8 blah blah version lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kanttii:
That has happened to me also when using ClockworkMod Recovery & ROM Manager.

I recommend to use fastboot for recovery flashing:

(0. If you don't have the Android SDK, get it. Also get your favorite recovery img)

1. Copy fastboot.exe, adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll & AdbWinUsbApi.dll to %WinDir%\System32

2. Connect your phone via usb to your PC. Shut it down and then boot while pressing back + power until you're in fastboot. Start CMD and run "fastboot devices"

3. If and when you get an ID, you're ready to go.

4. Type "fastboot erase recovery"

5. Move the recovery image to C's root folder (C:\) and in CMD type "CD.." for example like three times until you're in C:\.

6. Type "fastboot flash recovery [your recovery image]"

(for example "fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-Magic32A-6.35-v1.6.2.img")

After that, shut down your device and reboot while pressing home + power until you're successfully in recovery!

This works for me.
[EVO 4G General] Dullblade:
Currently, I have 2 iphones, and the 2 separate data plans that I have to get from AT&T for those. In addition, I also have a Verizon MIFI that I plug into my Cradlepoint router, to use as my home network for internet. Since I am capped at 5gb per month on my mifi, I really have to watch what I do each month on the internet (no streaming, etc).

I am seriously considering getting 2 EVOs instead, and ditching the iphones, and the mifi, but I would only do this, if I could truly use one of the EVOs as the main internet connection for my home. It makes sense to just have one of them with the $30 unlimited data plan, so I would only do the high volume of internet stuff when that phone was physically located in my house.

Is anyone using their EVO as their primary internet for their home?
[EVO 4G General] IceCreaMan:
i don't as i like my 12mpbs + comcast internet connection at home as the best i can get from my evo is 2-3mbps. you would not be in a good position if you have to rely on your evo to have internet connection. mainly, either phone has to be setup the same either either one of you leaves while the other needs internet access (and what would happen when you need leave and the other is using the internet?). secondly, what will you do for internet access while on the phone as sprint does not allow/voice & data at the same time. that is where you would benefit from the mifi as your internet is not dependent on your phone.

you would more than likely be saving money over the longterm by switching to sprint but you would not save money upfront. 2 x evo's @ $200 each = $400 + activation fee $36 = $436, cheapeast data and voice plan = $69 + $10 premium data usage = $79 + insurance/tax = $90 X 2 = $180/m for both phones

or family share plan

cheapest family plan $109 + (2x$10 premium data) = $129/m

you will save money overall in the end, but definately not upfront by switching to sprint. Does the $436 cost of paying for 2 evo's out weigh the cost of mifi for verizon? you could also look into getting a sprint mifi/hotspot instead....
[EVO 4G General] berardi:
Yes!!! I cancelled my stupid Comcast internet. I was paying $60 / month for a garbage connection that went down all the time. Sprint internet at least doesn't disconnect for periods of days at a time. Maybe it's not 6 mb/s YET but at least it's stable.

Basically it looks like this for me:

Before: Sprint SERO $30 + Comcast $60 = $90

Now: Sprint EPRP Family plan $45 + $30 Hotspot = $75

Cancelling Comcast: PRICELESS I despise this company so badly, that I think I would have paid more than double the price just so that I wouldn't be forced to use them. (My apt is covered by the Comcast monopoly unfortunately)

Seriously, try it out. Worst case you change your mind. I have nothing but good things to say, and I'm running only over 3G. I can't wait til 4G, it will be amazing. The only problem is, as you know, the phone must be there and not on a call. Also streaming netflix you get lower quality (not HD) video so that stinks but I am guessing on 4G it will be better.

This probably doesn't matter to you, but just so you know the pings are very decent for me at least: I range from as low as 70 ms to 150 ms if signal is bad. I've been playing games like Halo 3 and Warcraft 3 with no issues whatsoever ( and winning ;) )

A disclaimer: I am single, living alone, so my flexibility is better. Still, if you are not in the best financial position, you have to ask yourself where the value lies in internet for $60 / month. Obviously a dedicated cable / dsl / T1 line is preferable, but is it really worth it?

Any questions feel free to ask. ;)
[EVO 4G General] Dullblade:
After just my first post, i get 2 great contrasting posts, with useful information in both. That's awesome.

The biggest issue I see now, is the fact that you can't hotspot & send/rcv calls at the same time. That almost defeats the purpose, if I have to use my connection to work, and am either on the net, or on the cal

Is that true for tethering and the hotspot? Perhaps that is the same interface on the phone?

The cost savings would be about $50 per month, based on the config. Based on the months left in my contract, that would mean the sooner I want to switch, the better off I would be, from a monthly expense. The costs of early termination for both iphones, and my mifi, are not really that bad, and it actualloy appears that the sooner I do it, the better it gets.
[EVO 4G General] gangsterholla179:
Im surprised no1 has said this yet but are u aware that you can root ur phone and have free unlimited wifi tendering.

I use my evo as my main connection in my dorm. My college uses a wack internet connection in the dorms, that doesnt go above 1mb/s on wifi and 1.5 mb/s when using a landline. N on top of that they moniter ur connection, make sure u dont do illegal stuff.

So for me a evo is a gift from god :-)
[EVO 4G General] bwillet:
If you are not in a 4g area you could pick up an old sero plan for 30/mo and a cheapo winmo phone and tether exclusively from that, and use the evo for your main phone. When/if you get 4g, cancel or sell the sero line and use the 4g off the evo (4g is data and voice at the same time).
[EVO 4G General] BrianBusby2038:
Was reading thru the threads and decided to try something out.Am running a rooted Evo with wireless tethering on 3g and just made a call to see if both will work at the same time and they do:)We have Road Runner from Time Warner and it doesn't seem to run all that much quicker thru a wirless router than Sprint's 3g,If my wife and I tether both laptops to the Evo at the same time,it slows down a little but not too bad considering its free.
[EVO 4G General] th3b055:
To the people talking about that Sprint does not allow Call and Data at the same time never considered 4G. You CAN do Call and 4G Data at the same time.

I ditched my Road Runner bill of about $40. Almost completed a month as my phone as my sole internet provider. I play on Xbox Live, stream from Netflix, and internet on my desktop and laptop. So far so good.. I live by my self so I don't need the internet at home all day. What I am running below:

Evo 4G (1.47.651.1 and 25% discount/month) + Root + Wireless Tether 2.0.2

I wanted to know if I can hard wire my phone to a router. One because my download speeds when I wire tether to my PC are about 1.5 to 2.0 mbs faster than when I wireless tether. And second I want to amplify my wireless signal.. make sense? lol
[EVO 4G General] berardi:
How is netflix over 4G? what quality do you get? HD? On 3g the picture is very standard def.

What if you try a kernel with wireless N? Not sure if it would be reflected in speeds, but in theory it should help.
[EVO 4G General] nenn:
having wifi N wont make anything faster except inter-network transfer, the bottleneck is the 4g, its slower than N, so anything between the phone and your laptop should be fast, but not to the outside world.
[EVO 4G General] th3b055:
Netflix (wire tether) on PC looks the same, HD content does not look that great, maybe a hair better, but not by much. Netflix over Xbox Live is almost the same. HD content doesn't look like HD lol... but it is viewable
[EVO 4G General] th3b055:
On a second note, trying Windows Internet Connect Sharing now. Not no expert in network by all means and first time I tried this..

But this is what I am trying to do. Wire tether to PC, ICS to Xbox 360 via eathernet cable.

Only reason I am looking for a wired solution is because it is faster. Wireless Tether 2.0.5-2 is slower than 2.0.2. On Xbox Live trying to play Modern Warfare 2 with Wireless Tether 2.0.5-2 is sloooooooow. Searching seems to take forever. Went to 2.0.2 and noticed connection speeds a lot faster. Can't play Red Dead Redemption multiplayer with any of the two. Hoping that wire tether + ICS will work.
[EVO 4G General] IceCreaMan:
You are correct but you need 2 things to make that work. First is 4g in your area and secondly a good/reliable 4g signal. I can't wait until sprint does evora so we dont have to have 4g
[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
I bought my X10a a while ago on "3" and I'm still stuck on R1FA014. I don't want to root my phone just yet since it will void my warranty. What's the best way to get R2BA023 on my phone?

Will there be any problems with the market or headphones if I upgrade?

Thanks everyone!

[Nexus One General] reaper1412:
How to try it??
[Nexus One General] danguyf:
I don't think the Market can really get any more trashed. At least these apps ought to be well-designed under the hood and won't FC all the time. I'm eager to see what non-devs come up with.

And if this does cause a further flood of "useless" apps into the Market, it'll spur Google to make it easier to filter the Market, I hope.
[Nexus One General] seeking:
dont all of you be so quick to judge. I taught myself how to program code..but I still dont know how to program AND make the userinterface. This will be a great tool for me since now I will just have to drag and drop textboxes and butons instead of trying to figure out how to code them into the app. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there like this.
