[Streak 5 Android Development] jdsemler:
Do you mean an adb driver for USB debugging support? If so, I've found that if you install the PDANet client for your version of Windows, it installs a driver that ADB likes. You have to make sure to uninstall the Dell PC Suite first though, if you have that installed.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Meltus:
as far as i'm aware (i'm running win7 atm) there are no specific windows 7 drivers.

Just download the latest Android SDK and run adb from there. Works a treat.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Synyster_Zeikku:
Just install the Dell PC suite. You'll need to restart. after your pc restarts it should be fine. I did this yesterday when I bricked by streak. fastboot = annoying.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ARHMogul:
If the process you used caused you to "brick" your phone, why would you suggest others to follow??? :confused: If it didn't work for you, it most likely wont work for others...:)
[Streak 5 Android Development] jnovello:
Still no luck getting this to work.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
go to device manager choose android 1.0 or whatever its called, choose to update drivers, manual option, the bottom option, have disk, choose the folder with the usb drivers from the sdk and then select android.

the drivers work fine then..

if you're trying to get pcsync to work then this isn't related
[Streak 5 Android Development] Us3Less:
download Fastboot.exe & Koush's Recovery > unzip to your c:\ , renaming to something like c:\streak ...... Go to control panel>system>device manager ...... rigght click "android 1.0" > let me pick > show all devices > Android phone or Google INC ( i didnt find Google INC in mine , only found Android phone ) > Android Bootloader Interface

It will the bring up a warning , just click "ok" and it will bring up another dialogue saying the device is installed successfully

Hope this helps

Did some artwork for an iPad game (pfft!) that got cancelled, since the employer didn't pay for the assets I'm happy to contribute them to anyone working on a game so long as I get credit for the artwork and a copy of the game ;)

Cool, Let me know what format you'd like it in and we'll take it from there.

Also, can someone give me a brief overview of the coding process for Android? is it done in Java or, what's the best way? to do a professional app? Thinking of looking at trying my hand at some coding.
[Android Apps and Games] disaster_ita:
Yes defroster, it is done in Java as Language, using Android library (package in Java).

1. Install Sun JDK (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)

2. Download and install Android SDK starter package (only extract it), http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

3. Install Eclipse (only extract it), http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/, "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" or "Eclipse Classic" are good.

4. Install ADT for Eclipse (follow http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html)

5. From Eclipse or from the directory where you have extracted the Android SDK starter package, run "Android SDK and AVD Manager", it connect to Android site and show you all SDK and Google API, choose what you want to use.

6. read online Android's docs (http://developer.android.com/guide/basics/what-is-android.html) and develop your app.

Cool thanks, i'll check it out, but in the meantime if anyone wants these (or other artwork) just let me know (i'll always be primarily a designer, not a coder :)

[Desire General] MightySashiman:
It's the dev channel here... Why don't you post your question in either the general section, or better, in the Q/A section ?...

for a quick answer : it's for when you want to use one of several hacks to install apps on the SD rather than in the internal phone memory which tends to get easily filled up. For further info, please try to SEARCH and READ about APPS2SD, A2SD, A2SD+ keywords... (ext4 is supposed to be faster than ext3)

Got my SGS some days ago and I ' m now

thinking of rooting, flashing and applying lag fix .

I just have some basic questions related that is

hard to get a definite answare of because of all

the posts.

Here ' s how am thinking of doing it . Comment

if this is the wrong way to proceed:

1 . Root my phone using : [REF ] Howto root your

SGS I 9000 the easy way (keep all your data ) ( all

firmwares)

2 . Flashing phone with JM2 or JM5 . (Any

recommendations of which one to choose ?)

Getting the firmware from samsung-

firmware . webs

3 . Applying a lag fix . I don ' t know which one to

choose . Open to suggestions .

Correct me if am wrong , but with the lag fix of

partitioning the SD card into ext 3 /4 and fat 32,

is the ext 3 /4 for applications and the fat 32 for

storing pic, film and music ?

If applying this lag fix , will the applications

downloaded from the market install

automatically in the ext 3 /4 partition or ?

I have a 16 gb SD card. I also need the phone

to be able to communicate with mac. With that

I mean the posibility to set the phone in USB

debuging mode and transfer multimedia files to

my SD card.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scorpower:
1:Yes

2:Use I9000DDJG4

4:Done
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darkbyte:
IMHO the correct order should be:

1.Flash

2.Root

3.Lagfix

because when you flash with Odin, you wipe your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] KristianEide:
This is an Asian firmware. I live in Norway and need one that is correct for my region.

If applying JM5, can I use the same LaxFix?

Thanks for fast replay.

After applying Laxfixes that moves the location of the application data and other folders, do I have to do something when installing apps from the market? Or can I use the phone the way I use it out of box?

One last question: Is it only custom rooms that apply new themes or is there a way to only apply new themes whitout doing anything to the room? No need for a guide. Only what option I have.

Thanks for solid help!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fireloon:
You can install wallpapers and widgets to change how your home screens look.

If you want to change the whole theme there are a few out there that you can use (like LauncherPro) and you only need to install Home Switcher to use them. They are all found on android market.

Flashing themed custom roms also does the trick and comes with a few extras like lagfixes. I have not tried because I see no need fot it atm.

You can also try the mods described at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=752200&page=3. If you feel creative you can use your own images instead of the ones supplied

Anyone know of a Good Android car UI? I have been looking on the market and the ones I can find are ugly..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fireloon:
What do you mean "car UI"?

If all you want is a wallpaper then use any 960x800 image that you like. If you find none just use higher resolution wallpapers and do a bit of image editing. All you need to do really is resize and crop;)

If you want car sounds on your mobile then I dont know where you can get them but I'm sure a search on the web is going to get you a lot.

Also there are info on how to mod a few things on your phone at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=752200. The images used on that thread are not related to cars but if you know a little bit about editing images you can create your own.

Do any of the pre-rooted Froyo+Sense ROMs work with SLCD screens? Preferably as close as possible to HTC's ROM.

(Feel free to move to Q&A if it's more appropriate there).

I don't own a Desire but this'd be interesting to know now that Telus has released the NAM 3G Desire.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K900:
Well the official one should work 99% (cause it's official) and there's a rooted version floating around here.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K900:
Or you could root your stock rom with unrevoked3
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
There is no official Froyo update for the Telus Desire yet. Which is one reason I was asking.

And also - I thought that unrevoked3 fails to root a Desire that has received the stock Froyo OTA due to upgrading HBOOT to a more secure version?

Thus it would seem to me the best way for a Telus Desire user to get rooted Froyo is to find a pre-rooted ROM and avoid loading any OTA in order to remain on the lower HBOOT version.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
When the SLCD Desires first launched there were reports of people trying to flash certain ROMs and getting a dark screen. There is even a tutorial on here for people who tried to downgrade HBOOT and now need to navigate a dark screen in order to restore functionality.

My understanding is that OpenDesire only added SLCD compatibility recently, so anyone who tried to flash that ROM before it was upgraded would have also had a dark screen.

Thus I ask... do any of the popular ROMs still fail on SLCD?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K900:
AFAIK it's not SLCD, but hboot 0.83 that caused stuff to break

Problem was the img clockworkmod recovery installed. with the new img for slcd no problems.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsel:
The clockworkmod only affects the recovery. In the rom's kernel there must be also support for the slcd. For example CM nighlies got the support on 08072010 version and on RC2.

Telus Desire Unlocked running on Rogers network - How can I install Android 2.2 Froyo

Hello,

I have an unlocked Telus Desire and I want to install Android 2.2 Froyo on it. I've tried downloading the various versions around the internet but I keep getting the following error:

E:Error in sdcard/update.zip (status 7) Installation Aborted

I'm not sure if this has to do with the fact the Telus Desire is version 8182 and the other ROMS are for the 8181 / 8183 version?

I would like to keep HTC sense if possible and not have to go through the whole process of rooting the phone (creating gold card, running revoke etc etc).

Can anyone point me in the right direction or let me know what I am doing wrong?

Much appreciated!

Here's my understanding of the best way to put Froyo on a Telus HTC Desire...

Read this guide here - with special attention to the parts that mention an SLCD display:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=749551

Or this one which specifically is for the Telus Desire:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=750888

- Root the phone with Unrevoked3 - I don't know if that utility has yet been updated to the version of Clockwork Recovery that supports SLCD, but the thread here gives you a link to an updated image.

- Or, after rooting with Unrevoked3, if you get a blank screen when booting into Recovery... ROM Manager from the Market can install the latest SLCD-supported version of Clockwork

- From ROM Manager or Clockwork, *take a full backup to SD* of your existing installation. This may be your ONLY way to get back to an official Telus firmware if you need to. Now locate that backup on your SD card and copy it to your computer... keep another copy somewhere else... don't lose it.

At this point your best route to Froyo is to pick a pre-rooted ROM and install that from within Clockwork or ROM Manager.

Why a pre-rooted ROM? Because if you force the phone to update to non-rooted HTC Froyo, using the official file that also upgrades the HBOOT, then your hands are tied... you can't root it again, and you can't get back to official Telus firmware (or any other) without going through some crazy "stumble around on a blank screen for ages" sort of routine.
