Notification Icons

Looking back a few posts I saw that some icons have backgrounds that don't allow them to blend in with the notification bar.

I just want to make sure something didnt go wrong, or I missed installing something...

My notification bar is not the solid black color that many screenshots seem to have. It has a gradient look. Lighter black up top transition down to darker on the bottom. My icons that have a rounded corner square background include the USB, Cell Signal, GPS signal.

Have I missed something, is there something I should do to get a solid black background?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotelZambia:
Hey, I'm having some trouble with my ROM'd HTC Hero, running RegawMOD. She was running beautifully for a few weeks before today, where, after her battery dying, she refused to boot, entering an infinite loop cycle. I don't have a recent Nandroid so I'd like to avoid backing her up, but so far I can't get her to run properly.

Does anybody have suggestions? Could this be due to an application I was running? Her battery was dying unusually quickly, if that helps. And I recently installed AntPlayer.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotelZambia:
Update: I've since attempted to restore my phone to her first available NANDroid backup, still got stuck at the boot screen, even after the boot screen I was using (the Nexus One boot) was replaced with the Hero's original boot. I feel this could be a hardware issue?

Have you tried wiping/re-flashing?

If that doesn't work, it could be full memory, bad recovery(based on the nand fail), or bad hardware.

Hi, I bought a HD2 through Ebay and didn't get the getting started CD. I installed activesync 4.5 on my XP and WMDC 6.1.6965 on my vista. Both computer do not recognize htc device thru USB saying unknown device for a few minutes then stops, tab says "one of the usb devies attached to comp has malfunctioned (USB not recognized)

Have tried :

1) USB to PC - unclicking faster data sync, hard resets, reinstalling WMDC and active sync

2) changing power options to usb to disable selective suspend

3) close zone alarm and window firewalls

4) taken out SD card

5) tried WMDC 6.0, active sync 4.2

5) followed this website hxxp:/pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/wmdc/services.htm and trialled the batch.

Batch said UPnP service name invalid so I installed uPnP tester from:

hxxp://download.cnet.com/Universal-Plug-and-Play-Tester/3000-2651_4-10504740.html

Batch file continues to say Windows mobile 2003-based device connectivity and windows mobile-based device connectivity as invalid, but i cant find a way to install/update these from microsoft website or through the web.

Note: when i install WMDC driver software installation successfully, under unidentified device.

Version T-mobile: OS 5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89) ROm 2.13.531.1. (im in Australia if that makes any difference)

I want to be able to sync to a computer either xp or vista. Could it be my device or is my setup wrong? Thanks for help in advance

[Captivate General] ron_barcello:
Hi folks

I´m new in android and want to ask if it´s possible to use a AT&T Captivate in Europe (e.g. Germany) after unlock with e.g. vodafone?

Read some threads with rooting and flash I9000 ROMs but not shure if there is way to use this phone in our local (german) network with non att sim card without any problems :confused:

Is there a CAPTIVATE ROM available with correct settings to use OUTSIDE the US?

Sorry for my noobness....
[Captivate General] NukaCola:
As of right now AT&T will not hand out unlock codes to sim-unlock the handset, so you'd be unable to use it with a non-AT&T sim.
[Captivate General] ron_barcello:
sure? saw some offered on ebay UNLOCKED so i guess there is a way outside att...

@all: any proved links to unlook or user that have experience with it?
[Captivate General] dewt:
There is a thread in captivate general about sim unlocking. The ebay sellers were not able to unlock the phones and only a few lucky ones have been able to get unlock codes out of at&t by complaining. There is some sort of turbo sim device a couple of them are using though.
[Captivate General] decepticon:
I just called and got mine in under 5 minutes
[Captivate General] ron_barcello:
hey - thought it´s only available in the US from AT&T - right?

[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
Hello Chefs, this is my first post in the Chef area. I have been a member for quite some time and have enjoyed ROM's from many Chefs across several platforms.

To my question. I have begun cooking with OSKitchen (thanks for that btw!). I have successfully picked apart the leaked TILT 2 rom with Sense 2.5 and removed pretty much ALL of the AT&T add on with the exception of the theme.

As I have worked on customizing the ROM I have added in several features that I liked. Recent calls, manila TV, facebook tabs.... Im about to try the doc indexer/readers etc.. One item in particular is the HTC Task Manager. It was in my favorite ROM (from my sig) and I really like the compact size and functionality + LOW footprint(or so I thought).

It took a while to find a CAB that worked in 2.5 in the end I found one named: HTC_TASK_MANAGER_2_1_3 etc.... that said it was functional in 2.5

I made an EXT out of it and it worked with a little reg file updating. It reported about 92MB Free and I was thrilled as RAM = better/smoother performance on this older device. The only problem I was having with it was that the text was black on a dark grey. I turned to the ROM I had been using and pulled out all the same files and reg entries that existed in it as were in my package as it was white on grey text. I replaced them in the EXT package and recompiled the ROM. Voila! White text on Grey.

Now to the problem. Suddenly I am seeing about 75MB RAM Free (pretty much what I see when using teh chefs ROM). So now I start comparing the two.

No task manager in the ROM I see 92MB Free under Settings -> System -> Memory. I install the cab for task manager I found manually on top of the ROM, 92 MB free. I copy over the other chefs files and it doesnt work now. I recompile with the updated task manager from the other ROM and 75MB free?!

ALL this time I have been comparing to the memory tool under Settings --> System --> Memory and they agree 100%. They are the same program opened either from the system menu or the task manager I realize (or they at least appear to be the same. I do not seem to be replacing any files in the ROM so my question is simple. Is there a known issue with HTC Task manager and incorrectly reporting RAM? Due to the agreement in memory used I am inclined to believe that it is the Task manager itself that is USING the ram (15MB is ridiculous I know) but what other explanation is there if it is not wrong?!

Any thoughts or input from the seasones chefs would be appreciated.

Thanks!

P.S. Yes I searched. There were about 5 hits on HTC Task Manager and none had to do with memory.
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
There's never anything about htc packages that is 'low footprint' imo. They usually have hundreds of files when 2 would do the job. How many files are in that package? 100? Seriously, there are far better task managers out there than HTC's. I recommend using XTask. It has four files, totalling maybe 100 kb, and it has much more funtionality than htc's TM.

Seriously, just look at a typical HTC Long Press End-Key package. It's about 200 files just to allow you to lock your device or do maybe two other things. That's the HTC way.
[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
It has 50 files, most images 3 language files and 2 exes and 2 dll's.

Edit: So I added your suggested task manager and it agrees with the older taskman 94MB free however it flickers at the top regularly :(
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
I don't know why xtask is flickering, but I suspect that it is puking over the fact that it has to live in the same device as the crappy htc task manager. Try cooking in xtask. There isn't much to making a package-just put the two .exe's straight into windows (as well as the 2 mui's), then put in a reg file for xtask (HKLM\Software\XTask), and either a shortcut in startup for xhook.exe or a reg key in HKLM\init (what I do). My guess is that you're getting flickering because the two task managers are fighting over the task bar.

Fifty files for a lightweight task manager that doesn't do a whole hell of a lot is ridiculous. I'm actually surprised it's only fifty files, though.

Edit: an init key looks like this; launch it near the end of the queue, and test out before cooking.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Launch130"="XHook.exe"
[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
I removed the HTC Task manager before trying it and reflashed. To tell the truth I have probably flashed 30-40 times in the last 3 days. It flickers when I add the Memory status display. I don't intent to leave it up forever but just commenting that it flickers.
[Windows Mobile] af974:
Here is the link to comparison of 4 TaskManagers http://www.xda-developers.com/windo...rison-mmtaskmanager-showcase-arkswitch-xtask/

Personally i use ShowCase without problems.
[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
I got that package too, I may give it a whirl. I used to use it.
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
Yeah, I don't use the memory notification; I've got a today plugin that shows available RAM. It may flicker due to the task manager refresh cycle, or something like that. I personally just don't like the looks of it on the task bar.
[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
So oddly... here is what is going on that I have tested on this.

If I Cook In the HTC task manager that I have it works fine. If I replace taskserv.dll (in my EXT Package) from ROM I got it from that makes the text white the way I want it to be and cook that ROM up the memory is reports as 75MB Free rather than 94MB free I got with the original DLL.

So now to the really odd part. I can cook in the stock EXT Package I made with the DLL that reports 94MB Free on boot up, copy over it with the one that makes the text white and reboot. Now I have white text and it still says 94 MB Free.... WTF?

I am trying showcase now, I am familiar with that and there are some things I am not crazy about on X-Button (although it is quite nice).
[Windows Mobile] af974:
I found this other taskmanager in my EXT folder ,guess it is from Xperia,feel free to try it.

It seems that Htc TaskManager has some problems, now i uderstand why it isnt activated by default in Stock Hd2 Rom lol.

I never check if i ever had your problem im my Rom but i noticed that with HTC TaskManager active Sense took long time to load, i switched immediatly to ShowCase lol.
[Windows Mobile] hx4700 Killer:
Wow, that one is very different from what I have. Might have to give it a go.

showcase was oddly flaky. I had to tap & hold at the top right, two menu buttons appeared. When I let go to go click one I got the notification window telling me battery status and any notifications etc...

I am by no means an expert on this. I am learning new things every day here.

Hi everyone,

i just tried to root my unbranded stock 2.1 desire with unrevoked - everything worked fine, there were no errors during the process and after that the phone started clockwerk recovery.

I rebooted the device - and everything seemed to be ok (Root working fine, just did a Titanium backup) but when trying now to enter clockwerk recovery again, the phone is always stuck in the bootscreen (htc logo) and the only way to get back is to pull out the battery.

Does anyone have an idea what could cause this and what i could to to fix this? I waited for more than 15minutes, but nothing is happening and i see no way to enter recovery (and then flash a new rom) again.

Thanks in advance,

jp
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
What process are you using to enter Recovery?
[Desire General] demonxxl2:
Entering Fastboot (Power+Vol down) and then selecting Recovery from the Menu....

By the way, after entering fastboot (and before i can select Recovery) there are always a few textlines showing up (too fast to read, but i think somthing like p99xyz.zip is mentioned), it seems like he is searching or updating something....
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
Yeah that is normal. The text always scrolls there, nothing to worry about.

So when you highlight Recovery and press "Power" it just goes to HTC Screen and doesn't get any further?

If so, it sounds like your recovery has been corrupted somehow?

****I am not 100% sure about the advice I am going to give, so take no responsibility, wait for someone else to confirm****

1. Try reinstalling the permanent recovery via unrEVOked again.

If that doesn't work try:

2. Reinstall a stock RUU which should reset your phone back to stock, ensure it is an original one with a stock Eclair image (not FROYO).

I used ROM manager and that created a ext partition but i think its an ext2 instead of ext3 (because i cannot move apps to SD whilst using leedroid rom (which is A2SD+))

I've tried looking at adb to see how to modify/create it but I really don't understand it to be honest so i'm just wondering if there is an easier/simpler way of creating the partitions.

and before someone suggests Gparted I DO have it.. just no blank discs to burn it on :(

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pchandrama:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I think you would have to develop your own lockscreen.

You could take an existing one and decompile it and see if you can tweak the files.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pchandrama:
Thanks for the reply. But where can i get the existing files (path) and how do i decompile it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Basically, you take a lockscreen cab file (search for "Dusk" or "Hashuan" Lockscreen or just lockscreen for your WM version), open the cab using cab programs such as WinCE Cab manager and extract the files. Once you have extracted the files you can browse for the png, bmp or jpgs that tweak them to whatever you want. One issue you may find is that (AFAIK) only jpgs will support transparency so if you find that the background image is in another format, it won't work.

Its a good idea to install the lockscreen first so you know what's what in the image files and also retain the original file names and structure to ensure continuity.

....or, you can just ask a developer (prob w/ a small donation) to make one for you if it's even possible...
