just updated from v3 to v6, without wipe. No problems, really.

The only issue was with some apps that I had moved to the sdcard (using the official Froyo 'move to sd'), and that were also present in the new ROM. Guess, for updating I should delete everyting from the update.zip's data/app dir first.

There seems to be a lot less free space in /data. I couldn't even restore all my previous apps (with TI backup). I am moving everything I can to the sd card, but still not enough room. Do I really need one of the unofficial a2sd solutions?

By far the most stable of all the 2.2 ROMs I tried.
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
unofficial a2sd solution is nessesery. froyos a2sd dont move the whole app. just a part. so the phone memory get eaten fast if you have alots of apps.

the "new" v6 have more apps in it from start thats why you cant restore all you apps this time. the old unofficial a2sd is your solution

and thanx for the kind words :)
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
Trust me i had realy fun ;) i dont have problems multitasking im not an I-phone ;) okey to day i have problems to multitask ;)
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
I have alredy ;) before you wrote this. look in first post of the attatched files.

Download color-icones_superbatterymodblue_signed.zip
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
go into keyboard settings and enabled HTC_IME mod as you did.

then you have to chose whitch keybord to use, you can do it by pushing a field where you can write text so the keybord appers, and then repush the same field and hold. A meny called something like: input will apper. Click it and chose HTC_IME mod.

Your DONE

:)
[Desire Android Development] Drefsab:
Ahh so that was it :) Got it working now cheers matey.

The only thing I miss now from this rom are the coloured from the pays framework (things like the SD icon, gmail icon etc). All in all very nice.
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
I will definitely NOT stop modding themes on this rom. Its far from complete. Just wanted to sort bugs out.

I will look in to pays framework. He (maybe)uses the same framework as i did(maybe he dowloaded it from my thread and just added some more colourful icones.)

Nevermind, i will continue skinning this rom :)
[Desire Android Development] roman55:
I did delete almost all apps from the zip file before flashing, so something else in 2.2 must take up more space. Anyway, I installed ModInstallLocation, and set the location to "2" (sd card). This allows me to move (from the app installer) almost all apps to the sd card, not just those that officially support it. New apps are installed to the sd card; all of this without any a2sd trickery.

Works for me; others may have different needs.
[Desire Android Development] Noiz:
Glad to see you're still working on this. :)

I just flashed from version 2 (or possibly 3) to 6, just wiping the Dalvik cache, and while it seems to have gone fine, the battery icon is still segmented. It's hardly a major issue but I kinda like the look of the solid one!

Any thoughts on how I could fix it?
[Desire Android Development] roman55:
dropbear config?

danne_jo, I notice that you include a dropbear (aka sshd) executable in the ROM. How can I use this? Is there an app for configuring it (loading keys, ...) and starting/stopping it?
[Desire Android Development] danne_jo:
Just said i will continuing on this rom, it was a white lie i suppose :P

If you go to this thread of mine and flash every zip in post 1 to 4 you will get the "same" experiense but whit a faster rom and you can chose the way you want it in a more selective way.

Hey guys,

I wanted to share with you my own customized theme for skyraider 2.0.1. I have used lots of other peoples themes and have combined them all to make up my own. I take ZERO credit for any of this work. Here is a list of where everything has came from:

jonnybrueno - red theme

pc suite - fonts

pardonmyfreedom - clock and gps removal from status bar

prodigy2007 - icon for notifications and battery work

I hope I didnt leave anyone out. Let me know what you think.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] liquidbud:
I really like this theme, except for the font. Its very hard to read and too wide IMO. Wish I could figure out how to apply the fonts from the Detox theme. I'll get it figured out. Love this theme though!

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] craigmack:
If you send me a link of the ones you like I can incorporate them into this.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mb02:
i agree about the font. i just downloaded the storopia font and about to try to apply it as all my system fonts. if you want to try to apply the detox theme fonts, i believe you could download the detox theme, peruse through the zip file and find the fonts folder, pull it, get in adb and delete the /system/fonts folder on your phone, then push the new fonts folder to the exact same spot. i believe that should work. but, just in case, do a nandroid before you try lol.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] liquidbud:
Thanks guys, I'm currently downloading the newest SkyRaider to flash and then I'll reflash this theme after I package the Detox fonts into it. If I have any problems I'll come crying! :) I appreciate all your help.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] liquidbud:
Yeah that didn't work. I tried to replace the fonts in the theme but no such luck. I can't remember the link for the detox theme, but I think its on page 4 or 5 of this forum. I'll see if I can get the link tomorrow.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bonfire62:
Please reload link! Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mb02:
if youre still wanting the fonts, then download the fonts zip i attached, open it, just click extract and choose wherever to extract them. it will extract them all in a fonts folder for you. then, put that folder on the root of your C drive. boot phone into recovery, go to partitions menu, mount /system and open command prompt on your computer (directing it to your sdk/tools folder.) type "adb push c:\fonts\ /system/fonts/" and it will replace your fonts with the detox ones. then just close the prompt, unmount /system in recovery and reboot. fonts will be changed.

sorry, i would edit craigmack's update zip to just have the fonts in it to make it a little more simple, but i know nothing of creating/editing update zips yet :(

[EVO 4G General] TorxT3D:
just wondering what type of leds are used on the evo,

if the htc flashlight is prone to "wearing out" the leds,

and if led based flashlights are even safe to use??

i dont want to shorten the lifespan of these leds
[EVO 4G General] sk63:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Led#Lifetime_and_failure

Short answer, unless HTC is running damaging levels of voltage through the LED and you have the flashlight on constantly you have nothing to worry about. Even if you run it 24/7 the low end estimate for most LED's is 2.8 years.
[EVO 4G General] liquidkernel:
That may be the case for average LEDs, but high powered LEDs need proper heat dissipation setups. Philips Lumiled K2 LEDs have 1W versions that will burn up without a proper heatsink.

But since HTC released this as a stock app, I'm sure it's fine. I do prefer the "LED Light" widget over HTC's app.
[EVO 4G General] superlinkx:
Light widget is nice for quick turn on/off, but I hear it causes a wake lock and besides, the HTC one has more features (3 brightness modes, SOS, and blinking) and it turns on when you first press the app icon. Just hit back and you turn off the flashlight. I guess you can't leave it and use another app while its on like you can with the widget, but what are you doing using a flashlight while texting? lol. Anyways, if it wasn't for the wake lock, I'd still keep the widget around, just in case.
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
1 watt leds last 4.5 years with avg use of 8 hrs a day. So I'm sure these are even less and should last much longer.
[EVO 4G General] mogulust:
The LED on my htc ppc-6800 burned out from occasional flashlight usage. Maybe a couple hours of total combined use over a year long period. Just some anecdotal evidence to throw in the mix...
[EVO 4G General] fx120:
It doesn't matter how long they last when they are attached to a proper heatsink as mentioned already in this thread.

The LED's in the camera flash are capable of being driven hard, but are intended only to do so for short periods (when the camera fires it's flash). There is at least one application out there that allows you to put and hold the LED's at that power level, and if used for extended periods at that high level the potential of overheating and destroying the SMD's is there.

I am sure that HTC has determined the maximum thermal dissipation of the SMDs and built their flashlight application around that, knowing that users will be tempted to use the application for longer lengths of time.
[HD2 General] Muzun28:
i just saw a lot websites that unlock tmob hd2 for 30-40$. can we really trust them. i mean does the unlock code which they send work well and stabile. and which one you know we can trust?

thanks...
[HD2 General] elsecreto09:
you can request the lock code from tmobile but you also need a sim card from other carrier or the one you going to use. once you place the sim card(can be from att) a screen appears to enter the lock code. thats all.
[HD2 General] Muzun28:
actually it's my friend's phone and he maybe called t-mobile 10 times. they send a unlock code but it didn't work. he called them many time again but they still didn't send anything... that's why i'm looking for a web site i can trust...
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
If he's a legitimate T-Mobile customer, they're required by law now to provide him with a working unlock code upon request. It sometimes takes them a little while to send it, what did they tell him when he told them the first one didn't work?
[HD2 General] Muzun28:
i just found htc-unlocker.org they are really fast and the code worked perfect. i just paid 19.99$. but be carefull if you want to pay by paypal because paypal send money 2-3 days late so they send you code when they receive money... i got a problem about it but by e-mail we solved the problem...
[HD2 General] haythema:
unlock code

the unlock code t mobile send is goood I unlocked 2 phone

like it was mentioned you need different carrier sim card like ATT to have the pop up menu to ask you for the code so you can entered when you boot the device

:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Actually, you can make that code entry window pop up even without another carrier's SIM, just run "SIMlock.exe" from your windows folder.
[Omnia II General] becosemsaida:
If i flash one of the roms here available will it remove my carrierlock also??? I had a couple of htc's and never had problems with unlocking it but this one is difficult. Please advice if somebody knows

Actually, no I don't.

But I noticed the CM6 Nightly thread is closed. Sheer size, and time to shut it down? Or something big at hand?

My real question was that on the latest Nightly 8-1 build (my first nightly test) Exchange Push requires a password (Even Lockpicker won't override). Anybody else notice this or know a workaround?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbacker:
exchange

this is a setting that your exchange administrator sets
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bang3r:
Well, Sort of. There are ways around it, such as lockpicker, and CM6-RC1 doesn't ENFORCE the policy....key word ENFORCE....The latest nightly seems to ENFORCE it, and lockpicker doesn't even work....So thanks for the advice, but not thorough enough....Anybody else?
[Desire Themes and Apps] AndroidNerd:
Hai Guise.

I've tried three different Froyo ROMs from A.Development now and all of them work fine except for one niggle.

Google Listen doesn't seem to see my Google Account sync on startup and as such, won't work as it needs to sync with Google Reader.

Listen is one of my most-used apps and there isn't a replacement even nearly good enough to replace it on the market. Does anyone know a fix or workaround?

Thanks.

EDIT: Ah, I see there is another thread on this topic which remains unanswered. Sorry.
[Desire Themes and Apps] AndroidNerd:
If anyone is interested, I've found that Doggcatcher comes close to replacing Listen, but at a cost of £6.99

[Captivate General] phoenixms:
I'm not sure how it happened but now when I press the home button it sends me to the wrong home screen. Instead of returning me to the center home screen it returns me to the screen to the right of what is supposed to be the center home screen. I can be on the center home screen and hit the home button and it sends me to the one just to the right. Any ideas? It started doing this after I let a friend of mine play with the phone and they have no idea how they did it. I'm downloading the instructions as we speak.
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
It depends on how many home screens you have. If you have 4 or less, then it always tries to send you to the farthest right one. Its annoying and an android thing, not a galaxy thing.
[Captivate General] MendedEagle:
You have to reset what you want the default home screen to be.
[Captivate General] shoeboxin:
In TouchWiz I don't think there is an option for setting the default home screen (otherwise there wouldn't be a mod for it in which you have to root). I know this topic has been dead for a while, but if there is some way to set the default, that would be great to know. Otherwise I'm sticking with LauncherPro.

[HD2 General] jonyid:
Hi all, i have a stock HD2 with the following specs:

OS version: 5.2.21869

Manila version: 2.5.19211619.0

ROM version: 1.66.405.2 WWE

Radio version: 2.07.51.22_2

protocol version: 15.32.50.07U

so I installed cookies home tab 1.8.5 as i've heard its a dam sight faster and more stable than the standard sense UI. but for some reason it reguarly restarts Sense and crashes even more than stock. does anyone have any idea why this might be?

should i install an older version or leave it to stock sense UI?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
cant say ive ever had any such problems with cht when I used to use a stock rom and that same version of manila.....

your best bet might be to search /postin the cht thread....
[HD2 General] Paten:
I do a hard reset before I install a new version of CHT. I think this helps avoid any conflicts with anything that may have been installed before. I've never had any problems with CHT using this method.
[HD2 General] jonyid:
i've posted it in the home tab thread so will wait for some response. the hard reset is a good idea as i have installed things like duttys task manager etc which may conflict.

tbh i havent had any major problems with stock sense, i just heard really good things about cht
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
I had exactly the same problems after upgrading from CHT 1.8 (the first version I installed) to 1.8.5: Sense crashed and restarted very often, and it often took about 10 seconds for the phone to respond when turning it on.

Recently, something broke completely (start menu and text input didn't work, programs would never come to the foreground with Sense running) and I had to hard reset. Not 100% sure it was caused by CHT but it was the only thing running more or less unstable on my phone. Now I'm waiting for the next version before I reinstall CHT. I heard Cookie found some possible causes for crashes and will remove them.
[HD2 General] jonyid:
thanks mate think thats what i'm going to do as well because i find sense fine but CHT would be a bonus if it was stable, lets wait for v2.0 then eh?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
I've read about people having good luck with cht 1.7 when running stock ROMs. Maybe you should try that one until cht gets an update.
[HD2 General] troed:
I´m also on stock ROM 1.66 GER and run CHT 1.6 now for half a year without problems.

I installed CHT 1.8 the very day it was available for download, had some crashes, hard-resetted, installed CHT 1.6 newly and stuck to CHT 1.6 till now. Less features than 1.8.x, less screens, no mod-lock-screen, but runs fast and fine now for 6 months.

Maybe You revert to CHT 1.6 too and wait some months until CHT 1.8.x is flawless ..............

CooKie is a genious and without CHT I would have thrown away my HD2 already but also geniousses need time to perfect their apps and CHT grew so complex with the time and versions that it is impossible to prevent flaws in the program code since it interacts with so many hard- and software-protocols of Sense and WinMo that I sometimes wonder how he can do that in his spare time and offer us a software-package FOR FREE that is UNBEATEN.

Maybe the core-problem is that Sense and WinMo themselves have flaws which CooKie cannot overcome.

cheers for the advice mate, i will however wait for a new release and give that a go

Is there a way to port the vibrants visual voicemail to the captivate?

I know you can use google voice for visual voicemail as well.
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
Visual voicemail is dependent on carrier support. ATT doesn't support it on android. The vibrant's Visual voice mail is supported by t-mobile. You couldn't get it working on the captivate without switching carriers.

I'm using google voice for voicemail. I just set it up today and I'm very happy with it. The voice quality is not as good as the iphones, but I was surprised how integrated it was. Its like it was meant to be there all along.

Agreed. The transcriptions seem like they should never have made it in the final product. Errors aside, it normally gets the numbers correct so you at least know the call back number.
