[Desire General] atomfix:
I used Titanium to restore all my apps but they dont Show on market downloads?? So that means i cant update them?
[Desire General] freakzone:
Well I got my hands on the most advanced operating system :)

It is nice but a bit annoying unfortunately:). I have some questions about it guys and hope you will be able to help me.

For starters the Gmail app is crashing all the time 'stopped unexpectedly', maybe because I told it not to sync, but come on I can't even open it. I use the exchange and if I tell gmail to sync I just get my emails twice which is annoying.

For some reason the thing decided that I want my facebook contacts in my dialer. Unfortunately I don't. When I linked them to some real people it named them however it wanted without giving me the option to rename my own contacts. And I don't want facebook contacts in all people. So I factory reset it and told it not to sync them, but then I can't associate my actual contacts with facebook. I mean the fracking thing wants to do what it wants and I want it to do what I want :D.

Can I have more screens on sense - like in winmo sense?

Then I don't have a simple file browser, why :), the BT file transfer is not working, or just not available, no mp3 for ringtone or I missed something, my 6 and a half year old crap symbian nokia has both bt and mp3:eek:?

I can't seem to make it auto attach to the HSDPA network, don't know why, no such setting

Why does all the software makes folders wherever it wants, all over the sd card, without even bothering to ask my opinion

I installed 3-4 apps including the missing file browser and bt transfer, plus some more basic stuff sat nav and now I'm running out of space, why :D

Don't get me wrong, android is alright, I didn't wrote here to bash it or something, just to share another thing below

Ever since the dream came out I read what a great os android is, now I get it 3 years later and I find it lacks some basic functionality I had many years ago on my crap symbian. I was with winmo the past 4 years, it has flaws, but it's mail client hasn't crashed once, and I can't even open Gmail app on Google OS. I can't even imagine what was the expirience for the dream owners. The other thing, I am not a programmer, but I have used linux before, and calling this thing linux is like if I call my house a skyscraper:D:D:D.

Anyway if someone has a solution for my problems I will be really grateful guys :):):)
[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
Ok I'll kick this off:

Gmail app crashes - Well mine doesn't and never has if you have factory reset and its still doing it then maybe try looking to see if it a problem with using exchange at the same time.

More Screens - The desire has 7 home screens 2 to the left and 2 to the right which can be viewed by swiping left and right, pinching the screen as in a zoom out method or pressing the home button.

No File browser - yeah your right install Astro

No Auto HSDDPA - Not sure about this as mine just does any more info?

Random FOlders - Yeah this is very annoying maybe version 3 will address this

Lack of Space - the phone has limited internal storage and all appds install to it. Version 2.2 is now being rolled out which allows installation to the SD card which will give more room. The Sat nav stuff is huge and will be why you are running out so quick. That along with the carp the network operator has shoved on there so debrand asap.

Its not linux - you're right its based on it though. A full blown linux install would frighten most ppl though so they have installed a nice UI to cover up the complex stuff.
[Desire General] freakzone:
Thanks :)

The gmail app crashed less (1 of 3 times) if I actually synced mail with it and every time if I sync only contacts

I know about the 7 screens, just wished for more -10 for instance, I've been using smartphones for quite a while

Hsdpa can be on or off, it can't be off and then connect by itself if something needs it.

Its weird :D but 3 mobile didn't put any crap inside, or at least it is not in the apps part. Actually I had to download the crap by myself as it was skype, which I wanted to have anyway

I am still unsure about rooting it, as it looks like I won't be able to achieve much, alright I'll have a terminal, but I need to use it for something

The device says it has 147MB for software, sat nav 2x11-12MB + crap on sd card, some other minor stuff - file explorer, bt transfer, taskmanager, dictionary with database on sd, goggles haven't tried it yet, flashlight, skype, win messenger, google earth and it's at 75%

hope this helps and thanks again for the advice :)
[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
Hi Again I am stuck on the gmail issue and unfortunately there are only 7 home screens.

You may try Data On Demand app that may do something like what you need for the data.

I wouldn't bother with rooting as like you say its not really necessary and has few advantages other than backup.

I know Google earth is huge but it does appear like you should only of used around 60 to 70 Meg or 50% from the stuff you list Mind you I think a lot of the system apps like weather etc may use some of that memory but cant be uninstalled but I could be wrong on this.
[Desire General] Mark One:
If you're going to get the best out of this phone you have to give in to google.
[Desire General] freakzone:
Yeah, thanks, in programs there is the data consumption of all apps, surprisingly, the browser has used 7,84MB of max allowed 6MB cache, now I know what's wrong with the space

Do you have any idea about the contacts+facebook issue? For example a .conf I can edit or something else

Btw I knew about these issues in 1.5 (bt,storage,file explorer), but I tought they were fixed over 3 years. I haven't read much about them, except how great android was and now i feel like a kid without icecream:D

@Mark One - What do you mean by this, if I wanted a device which did what it wanted, I would have bought an istick. Linux has always been doing what I told it even if it lead it to crash. It's just a phone if I don't get along with it I'll just get another one.
[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
Err the facebook issue I dont have cos i dont use it but I do know that if you press phone and press the option on the bottom left to show all people then you can press the menu key which allows the selection of the "View" option where you can set "only show contacts with phone numbers" maybe this will help?

Froyo or version 2.2 of android has just been released which addresses the storage problem but not the others
[Desire General] freakzone:
I found this, it ditches most of the FB contacts, but leaves the ones which have phone numbers entered in their profiles, that is in the dialer only. I'll keep digging on this one.
[Desire General] freakzone:
Alright, I rooted the thing with unrevoked and the hboot 0.83 recovery image, installed froyo open desire sense + 5.xx radio. Unfortunately everything is the same, only skype is not working now. I formated the sdcard but the thing only lets me move a couple of small apps on it. Sat nav doesn't want to be on the sd, is this only me?

My mobile network is blocking sites with xxx content, unfortunately it is blocking some which don't have. I tried to change the user agent of the browser, it didn't work. If anyone has any idea about this :)

Now I debranded and rooted what do I do next :D
[Windows Mobile] Topone:
I'm going to translate into my language ITA the stock HTC ROM for Rhodium W CDMA: CDMA S2_Sprint_WWE_2.04.651.4_RS_2.32.00WF_NV_SPCS_2.20_0224_PRL60660_Ship

As my first step to get in contact with EVK i extracted the original ROM and then rebuild it, as-is, without any modification, but after having flashed the new ROM phone stucks at the end of the first config screen, without booting into Windows.

I haven't changed anything in the file structure, only edited kitchen_build_rom.bat file, REMarking this line to avoid errors:

if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error.

What i'm doing wong as can't i get a fully booting ROM?

Attached my log file.

Thanks dudes
[Windows Mobile] pkoper:
Most likely you did not recmod NTFConfig.dll
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
If you're changing languages, I'm guessing you left out wince.nls, or maybe have the wrong one. Try reading some of the other threads on non-booting roms, there are several. Check the stickies, too, for solved problems.
[Windows Mobile] Topone:
Thank you for the hints, but it seemed too complicated for me, so i decided to switch to OSKitchen and since evertything's gone straight forward.

With EVK i was simply trying to dump a stock ROM and immediately rebuilding it without any modification but the result was a non-booting ROM; instead the same task was flawless with OSK. Then I was able with very little effort to change language to the ROM:

- dumped Rhodium W (CDMA) stock ROM WWE build 21889

- dumped Rhodium (GSM) stock ROM ITA build 21887

- opened kitchen with Rhodium W ROM and loaded as "new build" the italian one (21887) i dumped before

- with a file manager (i like Windows Commander) i replaced all the ...\Sources\Devices\HTC Rhodium\EXT Packages\HTC Rhodium Packages\ WWE folder packages with the same taken from the ITA dump

- with a file manager i copied the folder OEM_Lang_0410 in ..\Sources\Devices\HTC Rhodium\OEM Packages\HTC Rhodium Packages\

- in the kitchen i selected Device and ITA Language and disabled all EXT packages in WWE except for a couple that were still very useful for me (for those, i renamed all *409* filenames in *410* to be cooked correctly)

- launched execution and all was completely translated (except the few packages i told before)

Very, very simple and effective!

Thanks to OSK, EVK is good for skilled people.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
I'm trying to get used to the stock browser because Dolphin is still having issues with re-texting when you pinch to zoom, and I can't figure out how to close the browser. With Dolphin, you can hold the back button, and it will turn off, so that when you reopen it it takes you to your home page. With the stock browser, if you go back it just goes back all the way through all of the pages you've looked at, until you go through them all and it turns off. It's like it doesn't want to you to close the browser at all, but if you just go to home when you're done with the browser, it just reopens the last page you looked at instead of your home page. Am I missing something glaringly obvious?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bang3r:
Don't think you are missing anything, but it is a little annoying to me as well. Best thing I can suggest is to hit the home selection in the browser by hitting menu/more/home...not great, but it works (still extra touches though...more than necessary) It's nice if you want to multitask, but very limiting if you're just trying to end your session and have your next launch bring you to your home page..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblazea50:
a dev needs to create a quit/exit button for the stock browser; right now, the only way to close it is by keep hitting the back button until it closes and it takes awhile for that;
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
uh, the home key will get you out of the browser. maybe i'm misunderstanding...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spy_owl2:
Hitting the back button until it "closes" on the stock browser would be like hitting back button on your desktop browser, then hitting minimize when there are no more entries in history. The process will still stay until Android decides to kill it.

There are 2 issues being confused here:

1. If you want to truly stop the process, you can use one of the capable task managers to explicitly do so;

2. If you want to just have a window open the home page with no "back history" then hitting the back button will accomplish that. Sometimes the back history has too many entries for this to be practical. So, alternatively, you can:

- go to Menu > Windows

- hit the "+" to add a window

- Menu > Windows

- close out the previous window keeping the new one only

- back button to "close" the browser

Not as nice as other browsers, but hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
What I was looking for was a more elegant solution to your 2 above (although that works too, I'll try it for a while and see how much of a pita it is) - I have no problem with it ruinnning in the background as long as it went back to the home page whenever I went back to it. I was hoping that there was a button I was missing that essentially took you out of the browser back to home and reset the browser back to the home page at the same time.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
This is why I don't use the default browser.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
I'd love to go back to Dolphin HD, but until they update to fix re-texting on pinch to zoom, the stock browser is just faster and smoother.
[Desire General] kischnitz:
Hi :)

I tried Custom Roms with and without Sense on my Desire. I noticed Exchange ActiveSync doesn't work with our Exchange 2003 when I use the Sense Mail widget. Keep getting wrong password/username.

Android mail app works fine, same settings.

Anybode has some advice on how to configure Exchange or sense mail widget?

Thanks :)
[Desire General] MasterBratac:
Mine is working really fine, using HTC stock froyo with exchange 2003 sp 2.

Do you perhaps use any strange special characters in your username and password?
[Desire General] kischnitz:
No special characters.

I also tried different domain/username combinations like

domain: *blank*

username: domain.loc\username

domain: domain.loc\

username: username

and so on.

Like I said, works fine on standard Android mail app. Is there any way to use this on Sense roms?
[Desire General] MasterBratac:
Dont´t know, but for me it works with

Domain: NETBIOSNAME (without .local)

Username: ONLYUSERNAME (without @domain or domain\ )

Server: only the Servername (Without "https://" or /exchange)
[Desire General] kischnitz:
omg :D

Thank you so much :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakman:
Yesterday night my Htc Desire using Leedroid v. 1.8 rom downloaded and/or uploaded something that I don't know all night long. When I woke up in the morning my phone was hot and the up and down arrows next to 3g icon lights without any blink. so it was downloading and uploading something that I don't know. And finished my 1gigabyte 3g package.

I restarted my phone and the problem was solved. But I need to find why and a solution because I don't want to use my one month 3g package in one night :eek:

Any ideas why this can happen? when I checked running programs I didn't see any programs that can do that. (Only gtalk,facebook,weather,gmail and friend stream apps were running and none of them can download such a thing.)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
Could be a bug in facebook that was found recently in version 1.3. It keeps itself alive permanently and is trying to update all the time. Make sure you have v1.3.1

Otherwise something else is being naughty

FroydVillain 1.1.9 INFO & Release Notes:

Hi folks, ninpo has been working on this one non-stop for the past few days, so he is having a well-earned rest, and I'll write up this release.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

REMEMBER the ROM will only be at peak performance after it's been rebooted a couple of times, and when you've opened your apps once prior.

adb install won't work on this ROM, until you tick "Unknown Sources" in the Menu > Settings > Applications menu.

This appears to be a new security feature. Similarly, apps pushed to /data/app won't work either. You might not notice the issue, but the app does not get any of its permissions it should have, meaning that it is probably useless, and might FC constantly or whatever. So remember to tick the Unknown Sources box

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

When you install this ROM, DO NOT USE GOOGLE BACKUP OR RESTORE. It really slows the ROM down, like all Froyo ROMs, and it uses loads of battery even when you think you're not doing anything. So it's not cool. So turn it off in the setup wizard :)

This ROM does NOT come with the optimal kernel installed. It comes with a safe one. You NEED to read the section "kernels" below for more information about these, and which to choose :) Then, once installed, open the app "CPUSpeed" and set up your CPU speeds. This ROM uses the interactive governor, which gives much better battery than other governors... So, set interactive as the main governor, then set your minimum and maximum. Then repeat this for sleep mode. If you have a 352MHz base kernel, set both the max and min sleep speeds to be 352 MHz

So... What's changed?

[*]CAMERA WORKS FOR VIDEO AND PHOTOS (thx cyanogen)

Includes DSPManager

Autobrightness fixed

Includes new CPUSpeed app- no need for SetCPU

Faster boot process

New boot animation

Pressing menu twice will unlock screen

Big kernel changes (more info to follow)

Different build method to improve binary performance

So... How do I get it?

A full wipe is MANDATORY for this ROM, regardless of what you're upgrading from

See here for download information etc.

awesome rom, tested a bit and i'm finally gonna drop my 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Just FYI, the two kernel variants (19MHz base or 352MHz base) are for the two different types of Hero users. One group apparently cannot put their phone to sleep at anything less than 352MHz or all hell breaks loose and the others can set low speeds no problem.

So choose based on your past overclocking methods.

EDIT: I'll post a kernel changelog tomorrow. Too tired now. Lots and lots and lots and lots of fixes though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BeelzeM:
Just one more quick little question if y'all don't mind.

Does this release include the stock keyboard dictionaries that were missing in 1.1.1? Like Dutch etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dont know:

just flash - or do a dalvik wipe before kernel-flash?

Ok, awesome rom. There is some strange thing in the settings menu - "@221390573215" or something. Pressing it causes a FC.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
No need to wipe anything when flashing a kernel.

Yeah it's a bug, my fault. I cheat and use Cyanogen's repo so I don't have to make my own Hero vendor/devices. I didn't strip CMparts out properly in this one.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaptyc:
Hey gang,

I am still having an issue with Dropped calls/Disconnects on the first call made from a fresh boot of the phone, and random dropped calls with the message that i need to deposit more funds.

My device: HTC Eris (i have two of these phones on PPC with the same exact issue)

My plan: T&T 1200

My issues: I get the "Dropped Call/Disconnected" problem EXCEPT with a twist.

EVERY time I reboot my phone (since day one when I joined PPC a few months ago) my first call lasts about 45 seconds then disconnects with no message. I just hear a few beeps and the call is gone. I can then call or receive a call from the person I was just talking to and stay connected as long as I like. I tried to fix this by making my first call to my voicemail, but that didn't work. My first in/out call to a real phone always disconnects within 45 seconds 100% of the time.

My troubleshooting:

Standard programming via *22890. Programming is successful but my problem is not fixed.

*22801 never connects.

*22891 programs correctly but does not fix my issue.

Flashing the VZW/Alltel Hybrid PRL (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=673661) updates the PRL correctly but doesn't fix my issue.

Some have reported that dialing #737 (to get automated PPC account info) after a reboot fixes the problem but it doesn't fix the issue for my two phones

*#*#4636#*#* then select "Phone Information", then scroll down and CDMA auto PRL or CDMA only. Neither fixed the issue.

Any other tips?
