i had a brain blast today!!!! have no idea if it has been done or not but im sure you have all heard of the clapper yes???!!!!!

anybody see where i am going with this????

set the clap to launch a specific program.. or perform a specific task... then clap...

i have no prgramming knowledge.... anybody have an idea if this is even possible if so feel free to use the concept.... think it would be a simple yet easy app to create with a high chance of usabilty and popularity...

dubbing it...... "ClapTasker" "TaskClapper" "clap to launch" "clap launcher" or anything like that...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Elemris:
Of course it's possible, but these kind of apps drain battery and tend to be inaccurate. If you want, there are several programs for voice command that do much more than just launching apps, and you could probably customize them to respond to clapping.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyt95:
I have a T-Mobile G2 Touch and I installed the generic 2.1 firmware.

I have tried many methods, ran the goldcard procedure many times but nothing works. Help please, as further research into the benefits of rooting a device is making me more and more anxious.

Thanks, Andy
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaymac407:
Did you use the RUU or was it an OTA update?

If it was an RUU, you are stuck without root. There are no exploits at this time.

If it was OTA, you should be able to extract the ROM.zip from an older RUU, rename it to HEROIMG.ZIP and put it on your SDcard. Then boot your phone to HBoot (VOL UP + POWER).
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
Yeah, HEROIMG.ZIP is your only option, presuming you used ota

If not, you likely won't get root, as I doubt any big devs will spend the time on it now that they have all moved onto other devices...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyt95:
I did use the the official OTA update but I downloaded it from this site. http: //forum. xda-developers. com/showthread. php?t=714855 (edit link first)

The file is and executable, and has RUU at the start of it...

Am I stuck? could I downgrade to 1.5, root and then install a 2.1 ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
Right. Get the ROM.zip out that file (guide at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7010639&postcount=1) and use the HEROIMG.ZIP as explained there. Just do what it says, and it should get back to 1.5 where you can root easily :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyt95:
Thanks for the reply. First thing is, I downloaded it from this site, did not get a notification on my phone.

2nd thing, I am not a developer myself and am quite poor in that category, so do not know how to format it to "<span style="font-weight:bold;">FAT32</span>!!!"

Any help would be great, thanks

Andy
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
You could use your PC to do it by copying all data off to hard drive, right clicking the sd card and format :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyt95:
Just tried getting in "hboot".

pressed power + vol up and got 3 successive vibrations, let go and my screen was black and nothing happened... what did I do wrong?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaymac407:
Power + vol down...

Considering you flashed an RUU, you probably won't have much luck anyway.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 42turkeys:
hboot Is volume down + up.

not much use though, if you used the ruu as per my guide, you're screwed.

and nobody will spend time trying to root it, as you can still downgrade from the ota.

I don't think you need to do heroimg.zip method though as it does the same as the ruu.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 42turkeys:
I meant volume down + up. ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyt95:
Thanks for the help, guys. I am currently loading HEROIMG.zip in HBOOT as I really don't know what to do with an RUU... I'll tell you if it works.

Thanks, Andy

EDIT: Did not work, can someone tell me where to download 1.5 RUU, how to install and pretty much how to root? thanks to all who have helped

EDIT: Did not work

Any help for this?

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gascanieto:
as far as I understand it, there's no way to root your phone. or better said, no developer has cracked it yet. will they ever do it? Probably. For now, sit tight, it might take a while, if it'll ever be done. Problem is, mature developers, meaning those who are her for a long time, have moved on to newer devices...

Just flashing random RUUs won't work. The hboot is checking if these images are newer, and since they're not, the phone won't flash it. There's nothing you can do at this stage except hope a dev will root the RUU.

Hi, i have my HTC hero rooted with the last Villainrom 12.0.0, i recently bought a new micro sd card 32gb and i dont know why but after i transfer data to my sd card i can see it, taste it, use it with no problems, but when i put the sd card into my phone some files get missing, i dont know why, but they just dissapear, may get into some kind of trash folder hidden into the card, but they are just gone...

i tried eather mounting the sd from my phone trough USB and retrieving the card from the phone and pluging it into the sd card reader in my pc, it doesnt matter, the problem stays.

i thougt may be it was some problem with the partition, i had the partition to use apps2sd, ext3 and all the crap, but the issue was still there, then i formatted in my pc fat32, still the problem, and finally formatted trough my phone fat32 and the problem persists, i dont know if maybe some software on my phone is making this happen or anything...

i dont know what to think, i know my sd card is ok becouse i used it filled with data and had no problems before...

please help me.... im gonna cry :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hingysaid:
I have exactly the same problem with my HD2... trying to upgrade from 8bg micro SD to 2gb micro SD.... everything copies across (or so it seems) however all the files in the 'program files' folder haven't come across, nor has my TOMTOM gps folder files..... ?

I've tried everything I can think of, why can I not copy card to card via my PC.... I'm sure it was simple when I changed from 2gb to 8gb cards.

Any help very much appreciated.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranyardm:
Okay, I know I sound like a petulant child here, but there seem to be many FRF85 Sense roms, and a few FRF91 non-sense roms, but a severe lack of FRF91 Sense roms.

I had a G1 for nearly a year and helped many of my friends with their heros along the way too, and the community kept astounding me by having things like 1.6 and 2.1 before release, shortly followed by full roms that were perfect and based on the releases the same day as the release came out, absolutely caning the vendors' update schedules.

I'm not really gonna ask why there's only the one frf91 sense rom that is via a paysite (yeah I know paul's good, but I'm unemployed atm, so paying is out of the question), but if anyone knows of a baked rom or how to upgrade any of the frf85 sense roms to frf91, I'd love to hear about it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgrec92:
Merging Froyo with Sense is harder than you think

It is not just a question of copying over Sense, you must change most system files in order to function with it and.. it's difficult.

Have you not seen DJDROID's rom? it is froyo FRF91 + sense, a prelease from HTC

This is what you are looking for is it not?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranyardm:
Every DJDroid (or DJDroid + this + that etc.) thread either states FRF85 or doesn't state an FRF code at all. Where did your info that it was FRF91 come from?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgrec92:
I personally flashed the ROM and in Settings -> About Phone - it states that it is FRF91.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranyardm:
Fantastic! which particular rom was it you flashed, a udk one? Could I be really awkward and ask for a link to the post?
[EVO 4G General] markus_del_marko:
Im running fresh 0.5.3 and have the latest amon recovery, i can do a ext+nandroid backup fine but when i try to restore after i reboot, it gets hung on the

htc screen and will not load. Ive tried several backups and it will not work when restoring. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] vballboarder:
Make sure you're wiping the data, cache and dalvic before restoring the backup.

Are you sure the backup is getting created?

I know SteelH was posting yesterday about the NAND + EXT backup not even working with amon recovery.

I personally don't even know what it does, but all my backups are just "NAND backups and seem to work fine.

I'm assuming you used Amon_ra to create the backup and you're using Amon_ra to restore?

I created a backup with amon_ra and tried to restore with Clockworkmod and the backup doesn't even show up and vice versa. I found out by trial and error that backups created by clockworkmod have to be restore with clockworkmod and backups created by amon_ra have to be restored with amon_ra.

I don't know if that's the case for everyone, but it sure is for me. I'm running whitslack's 1.47 and Evolution V9.

Back to the Nand+Ext, maybe SteelH has figured it out, maybe send him a pm or search for his posts in the Q&A forum from yesterday.
[EVO 4G General] 702DROID:
make sure your batt has enough power
[EVO 4G General] markus_del_marko:
I am fully charged when i nandroid. It creates the backup and restores it but when i reboot it freezes on the htc screen. So this is a bug with the amon recovery image then? It would be nice to be able to backup & restore my ext apps because i use apps2sd. I could use titanium backup but nandroid is faster. :(

Welcome to OS Easy Launcher

I have developed this app initially to launch android in a simpler manner. It now supports booting multiple OS's on your Storage card. Any issues related to the stability of android or the other OS's are not related to my app but the build of the OS itself. One of my main goals of this app is to make it as aesthetically pleasing as possible for a WM app. if you see any room for improvement let me know and I will try to make it better.

For all builds of Android and Ubuntu that will work with this app go Here

Instructions:

1. download and unzip to the root of your storage card the version of android or ubuntu from above.

2. download Android Easy Launcher and install to your phone

3. Launch easy installer and launch the build type you had unzipped to the root of your Storage Card

4. Enjoy!!

Instructions for Win 95:

1. Download here

2. extract to root of your Storage Card a

3. Run Os Easy Launcher app and enjoy!

Note: when exiting Win 95 your phone will exit to landscape mode. you will manually need to change your orientation back to portrait.

If you have any suggestions let me know. also if you are having issues let me know what build your using and if your using sense build or not as well as rom so i can make this as compatible as possible.

If your a chef and want to cook this in your app feel free to do so. if you want to be notified of when i update the app for your next rom pm me and i will give you a heads up when its ready.

UPDATE:

Video of how to put android on your phone along with using the app coming soon!!! (need to charge my video camera)

Credits:

Thank you tbdawg for the code to check if the files are on the sd card.

*now able to boot multiple builds in several locations on storage card ---- Froyo located in the Android folder, Desire located on root of storage card and Ubuntu located in the Ubuntu folder (note: app does not install the folders they are located in the current zip files from the link i posted above. just unrar to storage card basically.)

German Version:

Updated translation thanks to akeos2000

Other Languages:

I have just translated everything in the original app. should work with foreign roms. just select the language of your app and it will search your storage card in the right language structure.

note: if you see the english version updated the foreign language version will be updated to the same build and reuploaded.

Currently Supported

*German - Confirmed Fully Working

*Norwegian - Confirmed Fully Working

Dont see your language then request it. Just let me know what they call storage card in your foreign rom!!:D

I'm going to take a simple guess here and say you do not have a single Android file on your memory card. This is a simple shortcut program to the files that you should already have on your phone's memory card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
the app currently works best with the latest disire build 2.5. I am working on updating it for other images as i just read that some say zharet.exe so that should be resolved soon. currently you need to have extracted your latest android build to the root of your storage card then install my app and launch. I will also automate step 1 so all you will need to do is launch haret. I will be trying to get a hold of the devs and see if they would not mind if i included an update feature so you can use my app to update the build to the latest released version. Sorry i did not clarify as much earlier as i was headed to the hospital and wanted to get the thing uploaded real quick.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
Well i am currently trying to finish downloading some more builds for the HD2 to test with my app. I believe i will have it set as sense build, standard build, Froyo build, and Ubuntu build. Post 1 will be updated with a new link to get any build of android for the HD2. New version to be uploaded as soon as all testing is done.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
I am making a video to show how to setup your storage card for andriod and using the app. i will have this up in the next day just need a charge on my camera as it is completely dead. Please remember any issues with android is not due to this app but due to the build of android. The devs have done an amazing job to get us to this point in such a fast time but its really only in the stages to playing with and not really functional for daily use.

Thank you very much!!!:D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
check ur date as i noticed when u return from android to wm it gets messed up. the app only lauches the exe for you and does not touch anything else. it does not even access anything from internal memory only the storage card. i think the issues are related to the android builds themselves as i lost the htc volume skin after running haret from my storage card without my app on the phone so thats why i lean towards it being build related. but do check all ur settings.
