Katsuru,

thanks much. I have LockBot and for some reason, even with NoLock, I get both TW and Lockbot lockscreens.

It's been bugg'n me but this took care of it.

Thanks again.

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way of sharing the GPS device in my Dinc, so I can use it on mapping programs on my laptop, so I would need to register as a external comm device I think...

I'e heard people can do it with the camera, so I was wondering if its at all possible to do it with the GPS...

Maybe you know it can be done, with an app or setting, or maybe someone knows of an app that can do just this, please feel free to add your thoughts :)

MOD please move to where you feel its good, I couldn't figure where to post it

Thanks all
[Droid Incredible General] krelvinaz:
should be in General

There is no interface to use the GPS with external devices.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
But couldn't one be developed?
[Droid Incredible General] colonel187:
I have been wondering this since I had my first gps enabled smartphone. Every now and then I would search for this exact question. If apps on the phone can use gps why couldn't a laptop see it?

Sorry if this is a dumb question.
[Droid Incredible General] zeke1988:
so you guys want an app to send gps signal to a laptop?
[Droid Incredible General] junjlo:
This is based on opinion but i don't believe the gps chip on the phone can broadcast via usb or blue tooth due to hardware limitations. on the other hand if there was a program that could display the phones screen then i guess thats about as close as your gonna get.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Basically yes, So I can use it with my Chart Plotter programs, and location service programs.

I once had a USB Bluetooth dongle, and it registered as a Comm device over bluetooth, I was just wondering if thats at all possible to do using the Dinc, as android is very open, might be a way.

Thanks if anyone actually looks into this, willing to donate if anyone gets this working :)
[Droid Incredible General] Funkwheat:
I know this isn't what you asked, but... USB GPS dongles are pretty cheap on ebay and other places, I've used them before and they work well. Just a thought. ;)
[Droid Incredible General] mrlanrat:
This may not be exactly what you want but it the closest thing I can think of. http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.gpstether

Im not sure if there is a client for windows, but it will work with gpsd on MAC/Linux.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Hmm interesting, so if this works with Linux/mac , maybe something can be developed for Windows, and that is similar or something, i'll keep my eye out I guess, if anyone knows anything, please post :)
[Droid Incredible General] dgourd:
Its not the GPS chip that has to broadcast. It theoretically works like this:

The GPS gets your location and the all data it was meant to collect. It returns that data to your phone. There would be an app on your phone that collects and aggregates this data and sends it over Bluetooth or USB. Then a program on the client computer would be like a driver. It would make the client think your phone is a gps receiver and collect the data your phone is sending over. Then, any program that uses the gps functionality will recognize your phone as a GPS device.

I only know how it works, but I am not good enough to actually develop it.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Well thats a start, do any Developers know anything about this?
[Droid Incredible General] ktdt00:
BlueNMEA

At least one dev has this working with WinMo and there are a few reviewers who have gotten it to work with a laptop... Google "BlueNMEA"...

Cheers!
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Thanks for the info, i took a look at it, but doesn't seem to be working perfectly yet, we'll have to see what happens in the future,
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BronzedDroid:
What are my choices for connecting my phone to any given car stereo?

Here's what I'm pretty sure works:

AUX (3,5mm minijack directly to the player, have to switch songs on the phone)

Bluetooth A2DP (uses more battery, can I switch songs on the player? Not sure)

Here's what I'm wondering if works:

Can the phone imitate a USB memory stick in any way? I'm guessing not (without root atleast).

Purchase accessory: FM transmitter (does this exist?)

Any other methods I forgot?

Wondering about this because I want to use my phone (with Spotify) in the car.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
check this out it will answer most of your questions

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=726403&highlight=cz509

some one already asked that before, but to satisfy your own questions...

1. yes if your Deck supports it

2. best option if your Deck supports it, no problem with power if you have a 2Amp (2000mAh) car charger

i'm using this one

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.25178

1. yes, if you set your phone as a mass storage device, and if your Deck supports it

2. Yes, but sound quality is bad

3. Yes, it depends on your Deck abilities.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BronzedDroid:
Thanks mate. I will consider that charger.

Edit: If I use USB in mass storage mode, I can obviously only play local files. If I use A2DP, can I use spotify? Not sure how that works.

Hi I am new here and was just wondering is it possible to root a motorola milestone. I got i last week and am starting to use up most of the internal storage install apps and i then stumbled across apps2sd online. so i looked into the app online more and found out you needed root access. But seeing the milestone has a locked bootloader can i still root it if so how. many thanks.

You can root the milestone but installing roms differently check milestone development section for details.

I think you can grab the cm6 zip, then get the adwlauncher apk from /system/app. Change the apk extention to .zip to unzip it. I think the wallpapers will be in there somewhere (there are a bunch). I think resources/drawable or drawable-dhpi maybe?

Don't post a question like this in development. I'm not going to say search first because this is kinda hard to search for a good answer, but it certainly should be somewhere like Q&A, or maybe in the general (non-EVO) Q&A.

I haven't looked, but I'm sure you could get them from the git repository as well.

/system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk probably.

The only way I know to use it in another rom would be to mount the /system partition as read/write and push that apk over top of the existing one. But I do not know what that might or might not break, or even work at all.

i remember that the nexus one could do 720... is it possible to do that with the hd2...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Shatterv2:
Well Im sure if it can be done it will, but as it stands that's seen as a luxury (720p) and not really a necessity. We still need fully functional camcorder..

Here's to hoping though! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ALEXRUSS55:
The hardware is there, we just need a little help from developers.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tundra84:
Hmmm more to HD than resolution methinks

While I'm all for our devices doing more and unlocking their full potential, have you actually seen sample nexus one "720p" videos? It looks like badly upscaled 480p video (which in reality it probably is...). For me, 720p recording and playback ain't that big a deal when the gain in quality is so minimal in terms of the larger files. But I could totally go for some 720p video playback if for nothing more than bragging rights :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
If you think 720 resolution is going to dramatically improve video quality then you are mistaken. You will just have a larger version of the same video. The quality really hinges on the lens and our lens is not the best.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twigums:
Well i used the OTA Simple Root and it worked, but now everytime i try to go into recovery (power plus volume down) it searches the files again and tries to run all the updates and reboot the system. Then when i skip that and try to go to recovery to update a rom i get a black screen with a red triangle and cant get to the recovery menu even. I did one time and i was in boot loop.

My questions are these, how can i set my phone back to completely stock with nothing on the sd card but what i need.

Is there anyway to fix this with out having to start all over again?

[Captivate Accessories] lordmaxx:
I recently got a Blueant Q1 and it is suppose to support A2DP so that phone ringing, music and other sounds are suppose to play over the bluetooth instead of using the speaker.

I have paired, reset, updated the firmware and paired again after reset and still can't seem to get it to a2dp. Normal bluetooth profile seems to work fine. I can call and receive calls, but Video player, Audio Player all the stuff that shoudl come over A2DP does not seem to be working. I have firmware 8.2 on the Q1, and 8.19 was suppose to be the one that included A2DP support.

When I go under settings->wireless and network->Bluetooth settings-> Blueant Q1 v8.2 options the only options is Phone(Use for phone audio) and of course it's checked on automatically. Nothing about stereo or other audio.

If I playback anything, or even if it uses Blueants own android app to "speak text messages" it comes over the speaker...

Any ideas? does A2DP need to be enabled in some way?
[Captivate Accessories] lordmaxx:
well, only about 5 minutes more (of the 2 or so hours of messing with this device) to get it working.

The icon next to my bluetooth device was showing a Phone icon in bluetooth settings. I held down and chose disconnect and unpair and after that the device unpaired and the icon changed to a headset icon and said press to pair with this device...I did, and the icon stayed like a pair of headphones and now does its A2dp thing...

So if you have a a2dp device and it shows the phone icon, unpair/disconnect, and hopefully the icon will change to the next....stage.....
[Captivate Accessories] cases99:
Thank you so much! This was driving me crazy!!! Must be a bug, doesnt make sense why you have to disconnect and unpair before it works. Thanks again!

I bought hd2 from ebay 2 weeks back and it is currently locked with T-mobile. I tried unlocking code from few sites but all returned my money, is there something changed? Can somebody sugest some where can get the code

Thanks
[HD2 General] matthewharmon102:
for most new phones now, the networks are the only ones that have the unlock codes.

what you will have to do, is get a free t-mobile pay as you go sim card and put it in the phone. dial 150 and speak to someone in tech support. say to them that your friend had the phone, but has since upgraded and got a new phone, and has given you the hd2, but you have a contract with another network so you need an unlock code for it. there may be a £15-£25 charge for it, but they should supply you with one. you will need either £20 credit or a debit card (they wont take payment from a credit card or any other source) for the payment, a valid email address that you check regulary and the phones imei number (printed on the sticker under the battery or dial *#06#). whatever you do DO NOT mention ebay!! phone networks do not like you buying phones from ebay and may give you some bs excuse as to why they cant give you an unlock code. they should email you the code within 14 working days. they may be able to tell you over the phone or they may post it to you in a letter, so be prepared for that as well

after you have unlocked the phone, you will need to debrand it. to do this, install hspl3 on the phone then install either the generic htc roms (or of you can find it, the rom from the network you are on), or one of the many custom roms available. also have a look at updating the radio rom. then its just a case of getting the operator settings either by opening the comm manager, tapping the data connection icon (the left hand icon next to the words 'data connection') and choosing your network from the list, or contacting your network and asking for the settings. it may be worth updating your connection database (in the connection setup, tap menu>update database>select update the latest settings of all operators>then tap the update database button) this ensures you are using the latest settings and will also add any new networks to the list.

i would avoid 3rd party unlocking sites/shops, as they way to unlock new phones is often related to imei, and the codes cant be generated yet, so the networks are the only option

hope this answers your question
[HD2 General] matthewharmon102:
the above process is for the UK btw, not sure if its any different for other countries

[HD2 General] GPdhillon:
Thanks for suggestions guys

Ill try ebay guy first if that didn't work then i'll buy the t-mobile prepaid card
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
if you install any generic rom onto a tmous it will permanently kill it, so although the advice is sound for regular hd2, DO NOT follow that advice if you have a tmous.
