[Droid Incredible General] IShootPixels:
So it's been over 12 hours since I've been running this Froyo build and I've noticed a few things.

I did indeed have to uninstall and then reinstall Swype, but I occasionally have an issue where it randomly decides that I need to see a tutorial mid-typing.

I don't know about anyone else, but I use Seesmic as my Twitter client and just now, after viewing a photo in it, it came out of the photo and showed me the green HTC logo and then proceeded to go into a "Loading" pop up.

By far the WEIRDEST thing that has happened today is that when I went to use the packed in Messaging app the text input field filled up with a TRUCK LOAD of "code" for lack of a better word. I couldn't even begin to tell you what it was for or about, but I remember seeing "RIM" all over the place and I THINK I saw something about editing an image. WTF?

Overall it seems snappier though. I think it's draining the battery faster but I'm not sure. Nearly all of my apps worked which was a plus so Ti Back up works as was mentioned BUT only to reload your previously saved apps and only some of them may work. Ti back up will NOT work after installing the 2.2. Oh, AND I was able to start up my Backup Asst. that I'd been using to back up my contacts and sure enough they were all there thankfully.

I'm hoping that these issues are endemic to this build and that given more time, someone will be able to create a more stable ROM. After reinstalling all of my apps last night and today, I'm not sure I'd like to go backwards.

That said, if I wanted to ditch the Froyo could I and still maintain the 720p AND would I be able to get the OTA update later in spite of being rooted? I may have asked this yesterday but it's all a blur. I was so tired that I don't even remember installing half the apps that were back on my phone this morning and I fell asleep sitting up on the couch which is exactly how I woke up this morning.
[Droid Incredible General] Duckbone Apps:
If you want to go back to 2.1 all you have to do is restore your nandroid backup that you did after installing the leaked OTA. You will still have the v2 radio and 720p recording. To get any OTA in the future, you would need to go back to completely stock. FYI ---- unrevoked has confirmed that the Froyo update for the EVO has eliminated root and expect the same on the Incredible Froyo update. If you do not want to lose root, do not install any future OTA until given green light by unrevoked.
[Droid Incredible General] IShootPixels:
Thanks for the tip. I was worried about the update getting rid of root which is why I didn't try to go back today after finding that this build seems to have some issues with the apps I'm running. I started a thread with a pic of the whacked out screen I got and I've been having some issues with Live wallpaper that I have installed. Specifically one that has the Droid X eye that looks like its ripping through metal and has smoke drifting past it. I guess I'll just have to stick with the old original Droid eye scanner looking one because that seems to work okay.

I'm hoping that whatever bug gave me that whacked screen gets fixed and that updates to apps that I use soon follow the official release. In the meantime I'll just tough it out. Thanks again.

[Vibrant Android Development] s3gfault:
Please see attached. Stock, unrooted.

Thanks,
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
Its in the system dump posted by wes garner...
[Vibrant Android Development] djkdawg:
thank you so much!!!!

also i downloaded the original dump but couldn't figure out how to extract it, i don't have a samsung phone yet! but i wanted to export the UI to my motocliq for the time being.
[Droid Incredible General] Coolsaber57:
Hello,

I'm working on my fiance's DI and after rooting/installing Froyo, her apps are not being resynched to her phone via the google cloud.

My droid has almost always done this and I was curious as to if anyone else had this problem and if they managed to fix it. She has the Market fix installed, but still no dice.

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Info:

There is a "workaround" of the problem with installing 3rd part applications:

Original Aria thread.

For Linux users ---> LINK

For Windows users ---> LINK

Or if you dont mind to install applications from a computer then:

for Windows there is HTC-sync

or both in Linux and Windows you can use:

adb install aplications_name.apk​
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Misiek_ud:
wooohooo.... I have to test it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] barretta_bg:
Downloading and testing. Will report back.

PS: HTC Droid Incredible I guess... :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Looks nice, might stand out in the ever crowded android 2.1 sense rom list :)

Your first post is a little hard to read though, small text and bunched together. - Just as a tip
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Nice job guys. :)

I'm not sure if the issues you're having might be kernel related, #14 sounds like it might be the sources I use for Froyo.

Try lifting the kernel out of VillainROM 12 and see if it helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Killbom:
Is there apps2sd?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Hehe, when all bugs are gone... then maybe... so far i have some annoying bugs.

Gonna change the first post a little, you are right.

Thanks, gonna test it too :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Looks like there is.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Killbom:
Sweet, sucks to reinstall a gazillion apps :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
...WRONG ;) hehe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
wildfire?

10 char
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
nope :) couple more guesses and i tell you :) The name of the rom may help... if you watch movies ofcoz.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Well I have seen the movie, but can't think of a related phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Killbom:
HTC Aria then! From the ARIA in the movie?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
YES Congratulations :) you have won a JIT-ON and JIT-OFF packages :) to download from first post. lol

Yes the rom is from HTC Aria... first time on Hero i belive ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Nice. What separates the Aria ROM from the official 2.1 release for the Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Titanuim back up donate version does them all for you in one click :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Killbom:
Anyways i cant boot? Maybe it's to high clock?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
From what iv read not much, a few things like facebook status on the called ID nothing major i dont think !!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
well that htc news widget is pretty in the screenshot. I wish htc would make widgets that were capable of less than full home page size without being crippled though. Still, sense widgets are so fast to redraw after a reload of the launcher, and so pretty.

I'll wait until this gets a few more bits and pieces working, but it's very cool to see!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Updated JIT packages.

Updated first post with new JIT packages, now they wipe dalvik to improove stability.

First boot after installing JIT can take some time now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] IroniX2:
I don't know If its only me, but in the settings> application menu I don't find the " non-market applications " box. Everything else seems ok.

awesome work!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Yes i thought first it was my porting, but i read in original aria thread that they have problems with that... here is link to the thread

I am gonna try to fix it somehow...

Thats why i released this alfa, so maybe someone will help and solve some of problems ;)

EDIT:

For now you can install applications using adb

eg.

adb install setcpu201.apk

or something like that
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Thats a bit of a deal breaker, i cant install via adb, always says something about killing.......something.......damon tools :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
If you use windows you can try this
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Found this workaround

I use linuks so this worked for me

This should work for windows users
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Ok, i think i fixed browser, it is not quiting anymore on adobe site.

Gonna test some more to check if i didnt brake anything while fixing it ;) hehe

so, hopefully one bug less ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
ADB always does this, it kills deamon and restarts it when its "out of date"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] capychimp:
nice guess but wrong ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] capychimp:
aria is build form legend ideas by htc, it's faster than normal hero 2.1 and has more apps included :) but a ***** to port ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liljom:
how stable is the JIT?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Have not noticed any issues with it. just remember to change wallpaper, at least one time, before flashing the JIT-ON package.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
as i thought, i fixed closing browser, but i broked e-mail syncing, now i have fixed browser and syncing, but i broked HTC flashplayer... LOL

but i am on trail, hopefully i fix this issues this night... :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Yeah but it never says anything diffent lol, i might try it on my ubuntu
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
little off topic hint...

in ubuntu use

sudo ln -s /path/to/your/SDK/tools/adb /usr/local/bin

to link adb to your bin, then you dont gonna need to be in sdk/tools to execute the adb command ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
If i understand correctly, this ROM doesn't allow you to install any 3rd party apps from the SD card using a phone file manager like Astro? If so, is it fixable?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
So far, i've got just a workaround, you have to edit the settings.db,

info how you do it is in second post.

After editing the file, you can install 3rd part apps with filemanager.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
That's the adb daemon - nothing to do with daemon tools.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] llvllaster:
Normally i had appr. ~90-95 free memory on other roms before. With this one i have ~25-30. The memory is slow down. But i'm sure it will be better with next releases/fixes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Well :) there is still much to do here with this rom, it is v0.1 alfa ;)

soo this rom is more for test and see what other devices roms has to offer :)

I like this rom so i am gonna try to make it work, but now i am gonna be gone for a vaccation for a while, starting on monday(tomorrow :)) need some rest from this cooking hehe.

Meanwhile i also have worked on my Hero2.1 rom(RoboMIX), it is not published here... yet... :) but if anyone want to test it, here is a link to a polish forum where you can find the rom, i even google-translated the page for you (He JIT means JIT-on hehe, strange google translating).

It is published now... look HERE

Thanks :)

Hotfix #1 - this fix makes install of 3rd party apps (non market apps) work, you can't disable it, it's not in menu, but you can always install your apps you have downloaded
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mightymn:
Guys, I wrote a multi-threaded app that is just a simple counter. When it reaches 30,000 the job is done. The counting thread which doesn't have to deal with the form, continues counting if I go back to start menu with the windows button. The app is surely there in the background cause I can see it in the task manager. There seem to be some complications though. Sometimes it's completely shut down after a while; this may be a problem with the emulator and of course I don't have a device to try it on.

Sorry if something like this was said before :)

a video I uploaded: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glzBui95tiY
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Windcape:
Do a pastebin of the source code, if you want any serious input on this. Because I doubt it's running in the background (as it's not possible)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RustyGrom:
It looks like you're using an old emulator build. They've changed things more recently. Apps will no longer keep running.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mightymn:
It's not running in the foreground for sure ;)

they're just two simple threads:

ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(o =>
{
counter = 0;
complete = false;

while (true)
{
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
{
textBlock1.Text = counter.ToString();
if (complete)
{
textBlock2.Text = "Counting Completed!";
}
});

Thread.Sleep(0);
}
});

ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(o =>
{
while (true)
{
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
{
if(!complete) counter++;
if (counter == 30000)
complete = true;

});

Thread.Sleep(0);
}
});
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mightymn:
yeah, I think it's the April version. So this doesn't work anymore?

edit: yep! tested on the newest version and it looks like they've now completely killed multitasking, lol
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Windcape:
I think that technically internal thread pools should be allowed, but just be killed when the application is closed.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] doministry:
So interesting - how will I be able to make a screenshot of any app?

Like maps or whatever else?

I use this function very open.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Windcape:
Most likely with a button combination, no information about it yet.

The API supports it though WriteableBitmap, which is available in the current WP7 API. So it's definitively possible.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] doministry:
So it will be build into the system without any 3rd party app needed?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Windcape:
Who knows, really hard to tell. I'm don't think this week's build have a dedicated screenshots functionality.

But it's definitively possible. As opposed to other functionality.
[Captivate Accessories] MSHampton:
Anyone else notice that the desk dock/charging station has been removed from the Samsung web site? I was looking forward to trying that. And why would all of the other accessories be out of stock at the samsung store? Seems like they should have had things ready before the phone was released.
[Captivate Accessories] Pmac25:
Is this the one you mean? Desk Dock

It is listed under Chargers
[Captivate Accessories] MSHampton:
Yep, that's the one. Thanks for pointing that out. They moved it from the main page and I paniced. :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DN41:
hey mates,

windows mobile has the option to reject a caller with a message (i hope i translated that right, in german "Anruf mit Nachricht ablehnen").

the problem is, that i sometimes take anther phone with me which has got another phonenumber. most of my friends don't know it and so i want to let them know, that i have got another phone with me..

but when the option is checked and someone calls me, i have to press on right softkey "Send SMS".

is there anyway or an app which sends it automatically? is it even possible to reject SMS with this?

thanks in advance,

DN41
[EVO 4G General] ajac:
Any android apps capable of doing this? I am noticing the amazon mp3 program keeps randomly starting. I would do a full unroot but such hassle for one issue already using unrevoked good enough for me.
[EVO 4G General] DanBergundy:
Pretty much any task killer could do it. Autostarts, but Im not sure if you have to be rooted to use that.
[EVO 4G General] ajac:
well none have an option to select the program to block it from loading they just kill them at least advance app killer doesn't
[EVO 4G General] jcjr81:
Autostarts is the app you're looking for.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soundwavedj:
I am definately a beginner at this so any experienced help would be much appreciated.

I want to try out some new roms but im not 100% sure of ALL the steps

1) do I have to do a wipe/factory reset every time before installing a rom

2) do I have to do a nandroid backup everytime

3) Is there a way to save my settings in a particular rom so that it makes it easy to switch back and forth

I'd also like some insight on what roms have an everyday functionality to them. I am running the C-6 rc1 version of Froyo and love it. Only prob is battery life. But i would like to know what other roms work well for everyday use.

Much appreciated people!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
1. do so unless instructed by the dev that you dont have to. But always wipe when switching between different roms (e.g cm6-fresh)

2.no, just make sure you have at least 1 good one

3. Not entirely, you can use something like titanium backup though in order to backup settings for specific applications, which could be used to save your custom keyboard dictionary, text messages, and things like that. It can also be used to backup downloaded aps etc.

4. Try a rom like fresh, damage control, baked something. there are so many. I use cm6 so I have no experience with the above :D

..here is a cute little thread with what some people are using:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=733732&highlight=rom

don't know how statistically accurate it is, but it gives you an idea of the top roms I think :D who knows D;

What about radios?

I'm running a rooted 1.47.651.1 with the latest radio and wimax (whitslack's fix). Will I need to flash the radio and wimax again if I flash fresh 1.0.1 or something else?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
Read the dev forums and all the Wikis.

If something is not clear, read them again.

Then flash and search for any issue you run into.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
no radio and wimax are neither backed up or restored during a nandroid, nor are they touched when flashing a new rom unless the dev specifically made the rom to flash the radio also (and I do not think anyone does this)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
actually the best way i have found to switch between roms and keep settings - nandroid.

If you are trying multiple roms just make a nandroid once you have it all set up if you later switch to a new rom and want to go back and not have to set everything up just restore that nandroid. Since you probably will know that you want to go back you can store them on a pc if you want to save space and dont switch often. Just remember to always keep at least 1 good back up on the phone.

I rename the back ups to reflect the rom and then switch at will takes about 10 minutes or whatever to do the restore but in my opinion easier then having to titanium back up and re set up all your widgets if you switch a lot. I do use titanium back up for other reasons and NEW roms its great for but if you switch a lot or are testing to see this may be a "easier" option

see signature for daily driver (everyday use rom) and the ones i play with. I personally feel DamageControl gives the best battery life for my device. It is also very stable (though most 2.1 roms are now yay amazing devs )
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VI's got an EVO:
Using Nandroid to reinstall custom ROMs

I was wondering about that. Would the following strategy work?

1) Wipe as needed and then flash a new ROM.

2) Use Titanium Backup to restore the apps and data you want restored.

3) When the new ROM is all fixed up how you like it, make a nandroid backup of it.

4) Repeat step 1-3 with a different new ROM.

5) When or if you decide to start using one of the previously tried ROMs again, instead of repeating steps 1-3, simply restore the nandroid backup of that ROM.

Wouldn't that work? Wouldn't the nandroid backup restore the custom ROM complete with all the apps and data you restored to it?

Thanks.

[Nexus One General] mythamp:
Oh, I just saw one yesterday and my buddy is gonna buy one! I am seriously jealous, should i sell my amazingly awesome modded n1 for the galaxy??
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
If it had a camera flash and stock Android [FroYo] on it, I'd probably switch. Not having stock Android or FroYo on it can be hacked on of course, but updates will always take much longer to hack than on the N1. And the lack of a camera flash is downright absurd in 2010.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
I believe DNLA support is the source of the tv sharing.

Awesomeness that can be brough to any device with the right developer.
[Nexus One General] tanman1975:
honestly the camera flash is not a factor unless you plan on taking lots of low light pictures (ie. outdoors at night or in a bar).

I've had apps that turn the N1 into a DLNA server, but none that actually took control of the TV. That was sweet. Probably doesn't hurt that the TV was a Samsung too.

mythamp This phone is very nice, performs great, but it's certainly not worth spending an upgrade from the N1. To be honest, my first thought when holding the phone was, "Wow, this phone feel cheap."

It definitely excels at whatever it is designed to do. That said, they left out a lot of stuff (little and big) we N1 users take for granted.

If you're really that itchy for a new phone, I'd at least wait for the G1 Blaze
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
Indeed! I was slightly itchy for this phone just for the simple fact that I'm getting tired of having to apologize to myself every time the N1 digitizer messes up, but seeing the spy pics of the alleged G1 Blaze have stopped the itch entirely until we see what's up.
