[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] large35:
Hello,

I'm new to this forum and searched around before I posted this but couldn't find any answers. I just installed Android on my HD2 and everything seems to work fine except for the fact that I can't hear what people are saying to me on inbound or outbound calls. However they can hear me fine. The audio is super garbled. Also the phone seems to be running in turbo mounds. All the audio is faster and at a higher pitch. I've tried several different ROMs but all have had the same result. Please help!

Thanks

Samsung using tricky wording to not imply they can FULLY fix the GPS issue.

Or they don't want to imply anything is broken to potential buyers...They make it sound like they are going to make something that is already working, work even better.

I noticed that the Epic goes on the dock backwards... Is this right?
[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
Sorta interested in the 2 cases for the phone. Both look like cheap snap on cases, but if they have these in store on the launch day i'll probably pick the black case up.

$29.99 is ridiculous for a clear plastic snap on case. $34.99 is even more ridiculous for a leather side case, when you can buy a generic leather side holster on ebay for 10 bucks.

I'm liking the dock though!
[Epic 4G Accessories] jasonsf:
No, they obviously put that picture together wrong. No ports on that side of the phone.
[Epic 4G Accessories] radar5:
thanks for the link OP. Will have to see how big the phone is in hand to see if I want to get one of the cases. Wondering how vulnerable to camera lens is when lieing it down.
[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
The camera protrudes from the devices back. Much like the Nexus One, and quite a few other phones out currently, when placed on a surface with the back down, the main parts that will be touching the ground is the camera lens.

My Nexus's camera lens got scratched up pretty quickly! That was WITH a case on because the Seidio Innocase didn't have a raised area over the camera lense.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] campiosa:
So I have been trying to get a BIOS boot animation together for the Evo based off of frysee's animations.

I have everything made but my phone keeps skipping the animation and going strait to the home screen.

*I have attached a copy of my zip*

I used RickBaller's Jurassic park style animation as a basis for folder structure and desc.txt file, which is really frustrating me because if i use "pushboot" with his it will show up but if i use it with mine it wont.

Used photoshop to edit images

All images saved as .png files with no interlacing

All sizes are 480x800

.zip made with store compression

Is there a maximum size that an image can be?

Looking for some advice as to where I have messed things up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faster3200:
The frame numbers have to be five characters long, e.g. 00001 instead of 001. Also make sure you don't edit the desc.txt file with notepad since that will screw things up.

[Droid 2 Accessories] ljbaumer:
How is the battery life on the droid 2?
[Droid 2 Accessories] taptaptouch:

[Droid 2 Accessories] teeBOMB:
If I left my phone alone, it seems very capable of making it over 24 hours with nothing but text messaging and random phone calls.

It's too bad there's all this Motorola junk on here, the battery manager screen says its suckin' a lot of juice.

Over all, I'm very happy with my battery life. I just ordered a case, once I get it I'm going down to the Verizon store to see if the extended battery will fit. (with the case)

by the way, Google Voice integration on 2.2 is beyond perfect. I hope Verizon never catches on...
[Droid 2 Accessories] ekruse:
I purchased the extended battery from Verizon (1800 mAh) and am very pleased. I listened to podcasts all day (perhaps 6 hours using BeyondPod), had Audible open all day paused on a book, was driving through spotty coverage with antennae likely doing a lot of searching, watched some video and browsed the web, had e-mail retrieving for 3 accounts and ended up with 50%+ battery left at 11 p.m. My day started at 5 a.m.

Coming from an HTC Fuze, this battery life is amazing. As someone who normally works all day away from power, but likes to use a mobile device for entertainment, this thing is perfect. The extended battery from Verizon is worth it, and the slightly bulging door replacement works fine with the current hard cases they're selling.
[Droid 2 Accessories] tbaker077:
Does the 1800mah battery work with the stock battery cover?
[Droid 2 Accessories] gunz.jones:
No.
[Droid 2 Accessories] Redneck Trash:
The extended life battery from Verizon comes with a replacement cover. Adds around 1/16th of an inch to overall thickness.

Saw the pic looked a bit odd. What is the largest we can use with the stock battery cover?
[Droid 2 Accessories] tbaker077:
Will the 1500mah battery from the Droid X work on the D2?

How much more battery life are you guys getting out of the 1500 out of curiosity?
[Droid 2 Accessories] tbaker077:
Anyone please?
[Droid 2 Accessories] leobg:
No - Droid X uses completely different battery.

You can use the droid 2 ext bat with d1, the cover will be bluish. To hide that you can use either the body glove (motdrdpcovbg / mota855covbg) front from D1, back from D2. The red one can also be used in that manner (from vzw). The front from D1, back (with spot for ext batt) from D2

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] okcnyyfan:
Great app. Thanks. I had an idea to fill a 4x4 screen with images of my family for easy viewing but using ADW the 6th+ widget fail to load. So I will go with 4-5. Cant wait to see what other frames you have in mind.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Looks like this may be a memory issue. If you resize your images manually to around 600 on the longest side you should be able to use as many as you want. I played around and had issues with camera images (5mp) not loading but smaller (640x480) images would just fine.

I will look into actually resizing the images for the thumbnails. This should help. Thanks for the feed back. I am glad you like it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] driguez:
I'm glad I stumbled across this! Thanks much!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] okcnyyfan:

Same here, not showing up after reboot.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] okcnyyfan:
Any way you can make the crop box be the same dimensions as the screen so we can tell what will show up. with the current setup you have to center the image so it show when you open it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
I can, and I had actually tested it that way. The problem is that if you select an image based on the portrait view it never works correctly in landscape. With the 1:1 square, if you center what you want to focus on it works in both modes.

I realize that many people never use a landscape home (many devices don't support it) but many of us do. If enough people make the request, I can change it though.... or if you device doesn't support a landscape home screen then maybe I could make you a custom build... It might be a few days though.

That is great to hear! I was hoping it would work okay on the hdpi devices. I have limited ability to test outside of my own Hero. I am glad it looks okay. If you have the ability, I would love to see a screen shot from the EVO.

I am glad it is being enjoyed!

Hey, on you EVO does it have a custom icon or the little green android stock thing? I think I need to make an hdpi icon...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] maxomus:
It is the stock icon, Here are some screens from the evo:

The only thing I noticed & im not sure if it is because of the evo's screen size or not, but some of the pic gets cut off, well not the full size pic you know, I have to stretch & center it when cropping...

Sent from my phone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Hummm bummer, I will get an update up that has the correct hdpi icon. I also have a few new frames.

Any requests for frames? Can't promise I can make them, but I can try.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] maxomus:
Updated/Edited my above post with some pics...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Thanks for the screenshots. It actually looks pretty good on the evo. It clips some of the image because it forces the image into the portrait frame size. If I re-sized the image to the largest dimension then there would be a gap between the frame and image. The full image can more easily be re-sized to the longest side.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] maxomus:
Yeah, you did a great job with it, the size doesn't bother me, just letting you know for dev sake...the stock picture widgets take up too much room for my liking & like you said, it's kinda a pain to get to the gallery to show off the kids real quick, so this widget is perfect...

Dude... This is waaaay better than half of the junk on the market. I can't say it's good on every device (i have a hero)- but it works fine for me. If you want more exposure to other phones, post it in a non-phone specific forum (or maybe you already have, haven't checked).

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tibedabeeto:
I have been waiting awhile for a widget like this. First I would like to say that for your first time creating an app, this is good. If I can give some additions that I would like to see in the future. :D

When selecting a photo to put in the 1x1 widget. Once selecting the photo if the swipe through pictures can go thru all the pics in the folder where I chose the image from. Instead of adding more 1x1 widgets on my homescreen and taking up space.

Or using a selection option of all the pics you want to swipe thru and have and option to say one in particular is the main pic to always see on the homescreen. Other than that I think this app has everything I would want.

Appreciate the hard work, keep it up
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] maxomus:
Just put a shortcut to your gallery or specific folder if you want to view all images...myself, I prefer the way it is, for when showing off my kids or what not, I have the images I want to show at hand, rather then having scroll through my whole gallery...

Put on market for 99 cents. Profit?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Jedis:
Finally got around to testing it before I tell my Mom about it. Looks good!

One minor issue: Obviously, when you crop a photo into a square, it cuts it off because the widget is sized into a rectangle. However, when you click to view the photo, could there be an option to open the full image, or at least how it was cropped?

Right now, if I crop it into a square box, it forces it to a rectangle. Tapping the photo should (at least, imo) show the cropped square photo or the original version and not what is shown in the actual widget photo.

Does this make any sense? If not, I can try to take some screenshots along the way of what I am doing to show you.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] maxomus:
Not sure if I follow you, but when I touch to expand on mine, I get the same image I cropped, which is the same as in the 1x1 widgets.

Sent from my phone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tibedabeeto:
Yeah, not really feeling your suggestion. If the dev doesnt like my suggestion it's ok. Just my feeling about an option I would like to see in the app.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Jedis:
That's exactly my point. The crop box doesn't match the widget size (square vs rectangle). Even though the widget cuts off the sides of the square, tapping the photo should show the square, cropped size, and not the one that shows in the widget. Well, that or just show the whole picture when you tap the widget.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] wtphoto:
I completely agree with tib, I have never been a fan of how big the htc widget was but the functionality of was perfect for me. Im a photographer and I like to have 6 or 7 good photos from my portfolio on my phone so that in everyday situations when someone says hey I'm looking to get some photos I can show them some quick samples, give them my card. It acts like a teaser to get them to my site. This is a great app but I would like it much more if it scrolled the folder instead of having to have multiple widgets taking up the same amount or more realestate. Great work so far though, I love the customizable frame.

Bug found

I noticed a bug in the latest release today. The scrolling option has a memory. If you remove all the widgets from your homescreens they re-add one. When you open the new widget and scroll, it scrolls thru all images you have ever had widgets for. This is even after a reboot.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Thank you for your responses. I will look at a dir option as there have been many request for that. The cropping is another issue. It is hard to manage both portrait and landscape with a single crop, hence the square crop.

Anyway... I am out of the country for a few months so I am not sure how much time I will have to work on it. I will try to see if I can at least bang around some of these ideas. Sorry for the delayed replay. I don't have a lot of access right now.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chefthomas99:
Hey man put your app on the market you will be huge - love this app!

Sent from my Zen-Rom Hero!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Not sure what version this was with, but it should delete the image from the database when you remove the widget. Mine works fine on the Hero although while developing I did have this happen once. To correct this you can remove all widgets and use the settings->manage applications to delete the application data and it will start fresh. I have not been able to reproduce this with several attempts with the last several versions.

Please let me know if this is still occurring and what device. Thanks for the feedback.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Links on the front page have been updated for version 1.1.1. It now supports pointing the widget to a directory. Several of you had mentioned this as a "would be nice." Let me know what you think?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tibedabeeto:
Thanks for adding the directory support. The only thing I noticed is that the image I chose as my default is not the first one to pop up on the swipe option. Other than that keep up the good work.. thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
I actually just fixed that... kind of. I will try to get it up this week sometime. It posed a dilemma though. The thumbnail image doesn't have to be in the directory the widget points to. If I put it in the rotation and it is in the directory it is there twice. If I don't and it isn't there then it is never viewable.

Right now I have code changes to bring the thumbnail image up first. If you swipe you are taken to the first image in the directory and are then limited to the images in that directory. So, if the thumbnail image is there it will be viewable in sort order. If it isn't there you would have to close and re-click to see it again.

I wrestled with this one for quite a while. Does this sound like a reasonable solution?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tibedabeeto:
Yeah that is what I ended up doing. Thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Just letting you know, version 1.1.2 has just been released. Includes a minor change to the directory option (thumbnails now show when clicked) and 7 new frames. More information through the links in the OP.

how do i install to try?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Simple, download the latest from the links at the bottom of the original post. Copy the .apk file to your sdcard and select it using a file browser on you phone. Alternatively, you can grab it from the market for $0.99. You always have 24 hours to cancel a market order if you desire.

Hope you get it working!!

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
I had someone else have this problem once. There is no zip on the server. Your browser is renaming it that for some reason. I think he solved it by just renaming it to a .apk and then installing it. Not sure why a few browsers do this. Let me know if this doesn't work for you.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] sam9s:
I am using "Photoframe" for a long time, but what made me try this was the ability for 1x1 frame which is not available in Photoframe, plus the option to view the image on tap and swipe functionality is very handy ..... I am leaning towards your application ..... good work done here ...... however there is just one thing which I seriously hope you would bring in the future version (which photoframe has) ability to automatically change the photo after a pre-defined time, with a shuffle option. Plus ability to choose between atleast one more size of 2x2. Having different frames sizes in the same screen with all pictures changing automatically looks beautiful ....... Just my thought, other wise a very neat application .....

Eagerly waiting for the new version with auto-change option ..... :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Hi sam9s. I am glad you are considering making my widget part of your homescreen. To address your request, I am should have the next version out this week that changes the framework to easily support different size widgets. I have plans to support a 2x2 soon if all goes well. I also have the auto rotate (for directory enabled widgets only) on the todo list. I am not sure when that will happen, but I hope it will be in the next few weeks. I can't promise anything though. I am pretty sure others would like these functions as well.

Thanks again for giving it a try.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bommel0815:
Hi!

it doesn't work on my Galaxy S:

When I add the widget, the request to select an image pops up. I chose one in the gallery, crop it, hit SAVE and then I am back at the gallery instead of the app. I can do this multiple times and I still just get dropped to the gallery overview instead of your config app. When I hit the back button I am at your config app, but there is no image chose, so I can not use your widget as of now.

still, I bought the donate version as this I am sure this is a nice widget once it works on my device :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PhilD41:
Thank you for the feed back. I wish I had a few other phones to test it on but I don't. I have seen this issue on my Hero during development but it disappeared a long time ago. If you could capture the logcat from when you launch and try to select an image it might be helpful. The next version goes to the config instead of straight to the gallery so hopefully things will work better or at least be easier to troubleshoot.

Oh, have you tried selecting different images? I do remember that I had this happen once when selecting a small image or cropping to an image size smaller than the device resolution. I will let you know if I think of anything else. A logcat would be great though.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] sam9s:
Thanks for the response, I will use photoframe for now as I do need that auto change feature, how ever I would keep an eye on this thread and would buy the application as soon as we have that auto change ....... :) eagerly waiting for that update .....
