[Streak 5 Android Development] MSigler:
My stock US streak is waiting on me at home, I can see if I can pull the factory recovery image from it when I get home in an hour or so.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Uberfish:
Ahh thanks... I don't have a personal dump of my origional recovery file :/ So I guess I need a UK image (UK o2 locked streak.. version 21). Any ideas on this or am I basically screwed?
[Streak 5 Android Development] AdamG:
The recovery paul@modaco posted will be fine for you.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Uberfish:
That's the one I'm using, so something else is wrong or I'm doing something wrong. Either way, every time I select the recover option it just black screens :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] EZ44:
Would this even work properly on a US Dell AT&T Dell Streak?

Would this even work on a US Dell AT&T Dell Streak? I would think that since it's an O2 image the firmware would be configured for the 900/2100 UMTS radios? Also doesn't WiFi run on slightly different frequencies in the UK? Or maybe I'm thinking Asia...

I'm no expert, just curious as I have US AT&T Dell Streak with a 00 Baseband and would love to install this.

A BIG THANKS for all the work being put forward on this from all DEV's involved.

:D
[Streak 5 Android Development] Uberfish:
Ah, that explains why the radios don't work :D

As for the updater... no ideas still. Thanks for the help though :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] MSigler:
That shouldn't matter.

I ran an i9000 european ROM on my ATT Captivate, and I'm using a Korean radio on my Nexus One.

I'm not saying it will definitely work, but if it doesn't, it's not due to the difference in frequencies.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Uberfish:
Ah ok... but still my main problem is the inability to run the recovery mode update :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] Bizzach:
UGH sir, you make my brain hurt.

You're thinking of cell radio frequencies. Not WiFi.
[Streak 5 Android Development] EZ44:
Yes, of course you're correct ...my mistake. I guess I was thinking that Europe/Japan use more WiFi channels than in North America although that shouldn't make a difference.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
So, if i have a rooted stock US rom and flash this you're certain it's gonna work? I was thinking it wouldn't be compatible with the kernel. I have a US beta unit.
[Streak 5 Android Development] flumps:
sorry, should of said. was stuck at dell screen so i used the revert back to stock method to get it to boot and then flashed the 2.1 pkg via stock recovery.
[Streak 5 Android Development] marciu:
Hi Adam could you tell us how did you extract img files from the rom?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Hey guys how do i enable fastboot on my streak? It just gets stuck on wait for usb fastboot (device manager has a android 1.0 that's missing a driver) I am using a beta unit.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Uberfish:
Do you have Dell PC Suite installed on your computer? that has the fastboot USB driver you need.

Also, there's an image for 2.1, why is there no image for 1.6 that we can flash with fastboot?
[Streak 5 Android Development] jasonfreeman27:
i don't suppose you could give me a step by step walk through using this i got my rooted off mocado its got factory build on with Koush's Clockwork Recovery im new to this lol id appriciate your help
[Streak 5 Android Development] jasonfreeman27:
where do you put img files im new to this lol i type it in command prompt it keeps coming up unrecognised command ive got rooted through fastboot off modaco and got koushs recovery rom id appreciate the help
[Streak 5 Android Development] spences10:
Awesome work!

Thanks for all your hard work in this AdamG

I managed to go to 2.1 via wiping my custom recovery back to stock I completely wiped everything form the phone via recovery first of all.

Added the leaked Update.pkg to the root of my sdcard and flashed via the stock method.

No problems as yet apart from some random reboot.
[Streak 5 Android Development] RobbyTouchHD:
I only had windows mobile devices before and now switched to the streak after trying android 2.2 on my HD2 and I simply loved it!

I need a little help from you because I know nearly nothing about android till now.

I bought my streak in germany and it is a 00 Baseband so sim unlocked if I understand that right? I now want to upgrade it to 2.1 with this build and I want to ask you if it will work on my german device and will I be able to use it with my T-Mobile sim after updating? Because it will be 21 baseband after it right? Will that lock the device for T-Mobile? And is there someting that won´t work on this 2.1 android "beta" what was working on 1.6???

Sorry for all this questions but I really don´t know anything about android :(

Best regards from ger
[Streak 5 Android Development] rinaprasant:
dell strek baseband unknown

Flashed the 2.1 build back using fastboot and still no radios working. Also when I check the phone info there's no baseband version info, which could explain why the radios don't work.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
I have a feeling that the battery temp reading we see on our phones is actually the cpu temp or motherboard temp

I ran setcpu stress-test for about 30 minutes (phone unplugged) and the temperature got to nearly 50 degrees Celcius

Feeling the top middle area on the back of the phone (and the same area on the screen on the opposite side) that area feels hot, the battery however is stone cold.

So... Battery Temp = cpu temp?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
Anyone got an opinion on this? Its important for the overclocking crowd
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
I can tell for sure that battery and CPU temps is always the same but where is the sensor?? On the battery or the CPU?

If I was designing this phone I would put it on the CPU as it is more likely to produce heat if overused.

However I just experience a drastic temp raise from 33C to 41C in 1 min just after pluging in the phone. I was using it but noting eavy. I was only changing some startup setting with an app called Autorun Manager. So it might be related to battery but according to what you said it is more likely to be located on the CPU.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssonicmail:
I currently have one of those extended batteries and tmeperature rises to 52 C after 10-15 min of playing gameloft hd games. I have measured phone temperature with an infra red thermometer and battery was 30-32 degree and upper part of the phone (between sim card and camera seemed to be as high as 49 degree) so the sensor must be on the cpu or motherboard, not anywhere close to the battery.

Unless battery gets hot inside and is cold outside for some reason. And sensor is simply inside the battery like in a laptop battery (google: 'How Lithium-ion Batteries Work' and open first result)

In my personal opinion manufacturers wouldn't waste space inside the battery for additional sensor that looks pretty big on the website above. Furthermore a hot battery would be hot throughout its casing too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
Which sensor you people are talking about? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssonicmail:
Temperature sensor. Download temp+cpu from store and you'll know

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsotbiemrptson:
Hello,

I need any help I can get in making a boot.img for and update.zip. I don't know Unix or Linux but have some common knowledge of computers and have baked a few rom myself(no coding more copy paste). I have disassemble two boot.imgs and gotten the ramdisk.img form one and the zImage from the other. I used the unpackbootimg command to get these parts. I then used the mkbootimg to put them back together. When using this newly created boot.img in an update.zip the phone doesn’t get past the initial startup screen with the x and padlock. If I don’t disassemble the boot.imgs and use the one with the ramdisk I want in the update.zip, then flash the zImage with another update.zip it works fine.

OK that might sound a little confusing as it does even to me.

Layman's Terms

WHAT DOESN'T WORK:

1 - Unpack boot.img-A to Ramdisk.img-A and zImage-A

2 - Unpack boot.img-B to Ramdisk.img-B and zImage-B

3 - Repacked Ramdisk.img-A and zImage-B in to boot.img-C

4 - Create update.zip using boot.img-C and flash

5 - Stuck at x with padlock

WHAT WORKS:

1 - Create update.zip using boot.img-A and flash

2 - Setup phone

3 - Create another update.zip containing zImage-B and flash

In closing I know that doing it the way it works is fine but I would like to maybe eliminate one step and maybe even figure out what I am doing and how to do it the right way.

I can upload anything that you think you need to help.

Thanks in advance,

Robert
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] deficitism:
This is simply an 'unrevoked' inverted splash1. Black background with white text. This will replace your current splash1 that normally says 'HTC Incredible'.

S-Off Required

Installation:

Download the PB31IMG.zip here, and place it on the root of your SD card.

Power-down your phone, and boot into HBOOT. (Hold 'vol-down' and tap 'power')

When prompted if you would like to run the update for 'splash1', tap 'vol-up' to begin the update.

When prompted, reboot via 'vol-up' and enjoy the inverted splash!

The update process should take less than 5 seconds. Remember to remove/rename the PB31IMG.zip once complete, so that you do not get prompted to update every time you load hboot.

Screenshot:

PS: Here is the STOCK splash1, if you feel the need to revert back.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nscott69:
Looks good man
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] 0tarin:
Just wanted to thank you for this; I liked showing the love for UnrEVOked, but the white screen always bugged me (even with stock). New version worked like a charm and looks great.

Thanks for the stock flash too; I'd been hunting for that as a backup in case the worst happens and I have to feign innocence at a Verizon store. Having a stock splash screen will make that much easier!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] TNS201:
How do you change the image for the splash screen? Tutorial anywhere?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] andnoob:
Hi

I've a noob question:

Is there a way (maybe an app) to add more than one number, Group numbers, attach an image to a contact I saved on my sim card? I'm able to set these actions on my Gmail or phone contacts but not on my sim contacts.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
SIM cards were never designed for those extra features, specially photos.

there's no easy way to save all the extra numbers and pictures of a contact into a SIM card, to use it on different phones, because every phone reads the data differently.

SIM cards only store contact names per single phone number, and your own phone number along with the carrier.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andnoob:
Thanks, lucky there is a copy sim to phone option.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sanjsrik:
I found this on the AppBrain:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.h9kdroid.multicon

MultIcon it's called.

Very cool concept where you can place four icons in the space of one widget. Each is completely functional. pretty much to me meant a cleaner interface and 4x as many icons/widgets to place in 1/4 the space.

Just figured I'd put it out there for anyone else who might be interested.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] emulatorx:
yep been using it a few days pretty cool..i only use 1 ( 4 mini icons in 1) I dont wanna have millions of icons bunched up either lol..but 1 multi widget helped give me those extra couple of apps i needed on my screen
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rampage537:
been using it for a couple of days also, been working great. I wish it would support widgets, but i am not going to complain. I recommend it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sanjsrik:
Whatcha' talkin' about willis? it supports widgets, three of the 8 in the left hand-side multicon I use are widgets.

You try to assign any?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JackDaniels7:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jhuff83:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] YenahsYenzow:
I've used this before, sometimes I ask this myself if it would be using just a teensy bit of the battery because its a widget? Sorry if it sounds like a noob question, but that's something I want to know.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Badious:
More Icons Widget has been out for a very long time and does the same thing, its a great little app. Haven't tried this one out though. Hopefully its as good.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheDave1022:
Great app. Been using it since it came out and did 4 icons only. Now you can do 3x4 (12 icons) in a 1x1 space. Only thing I would like added is a way to save your configuration. Pain to setup all my icons again after a wipe and new rom.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sanjsrik:
If you use TI Backup to backup your programs including MultiICon, it will restore fine on any new ROM. I just did it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Bonkme2:
I've been pairing this one with QuickDesk.

Now I double tap the Home button, a drawer slides out, and every txt and voice number I call on a regular basis are all in one spot. Something like 25+ icons all in one place, without cluttering my home screens. Saves a ton of time instead of digging through the phone book over and over.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
Yep, it's a fantastic app, keep spreading the word!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bboy_201:
Similar app!

I had an app widget that would go across the hole screen and it would fit a lot of apps but i forget what it was called. Maybe it's this app in fact.. not sure until i try this out
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Noob Squared:
Was it Launch-X? With Launch-X, you can squeeze 2 rows of icons @ 7 icons per row where normally you have 4 icons wide. You can backup all your different rows too.

Launch-X Pro - free version available too

I use a combination of Launch-X Pro and MultIcon.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bboy_201:
looks similar and better maybe the one i use to have was an older version thank you for the info im downloading it now!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] awenthol:
Has anyone stumbled across a similar app that does the same thing only horizontally? This works great for my home screen (1 HTC flip clock + 12 icons) but would like to be able to do 5 across on other screens. The 4x(any number) is generally either too big, too small, or oddly spaced...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] satur9:
Can you elaborate? Whenever I restore from Titanium, my homescreen shows dead icons in place of all my multicons & I have to delete these placeholders & create new multicon widgets. When I create a new MI widget, it randomly restores some of my previously configured widgets but never all of them. Sometimes it will restore a very old widget that I haven't used in some time. Either way, I have no control over it & always have to reconfigure some from scratch.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Mark_Hardware:
Been using this forever man, I love it! I usually use 3 rows by 2 columns. I like ease and accesibility, and this widget app puts so much more at my fingertips.

Apologies, glanced over the fact you were running a rom.

It does require odin, but I cant be more specific that this thread already is.. maybe someone else can chime in. I have kept it stock until I feel there is really good froyo rom, since I am happy with stock/root. After doing this you can do my above post to remove root.

The 2nd post has instructions for not using odin I believe.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viking12uk:
I own a HD2 and upgraded my ROM with the T-Mobile ROM upgrade yesterday. Afterwards I couldn't & still can't access the camera or camcorder. Whenever I do, it says 'Unable to initialize camera. Failed to set up the camera device'. Can anybody please recommend a solution that doesn't involve a hard-reset, since I have already set up my preference again.

I'm not sure if it is a consequence of the updating the ROM or from restoring a backup of my files, that had registry edits that worked on the old ROM but possible might not on the new one.

Sincerely
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
sorry to say but hard reset is probably the best answer. Importing reg. settings from previous ROMs is usally a bad idea. It's OK after a hard reset, but not a new ROM flash.

Also make sure you don't have opera running in the background as opera and the camera don't always want to run together.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cicada:
I'm developing a frequency generator app using AudioTrack in MODE_STATIC.

Basically, I write out a sample buffer to AudioTrack and use setLoopPoints() to loop over the buffer until It's flagged to stop.

This works really well - in MODE_STATIC data is written just once to the hardware and doesn't require a loop, saving the processing time I'd otherwise be using to push out samples to the buffer with MODE_STREAM. The result is nice, clean sine waves without any of the pops and clicks that seem to creep in when I use MODE_STREAM (due to AudioTrack.write() being delayed).

I've hit a major snag, however, while debugging my app. If I have a sound sample looping around in the hardware layer and my app is killed unexpectedly, my app will never 'stop' that buffer; it will continue playing audio until I reboot or kill mediaserver.

I can't find any documentation about this bit of behavior so I'm at a loss on how to handle it cleanly. When my service is killed I have no discernible way to re-attach to that stray audio stream, and I can't kill it on the way down as onDestroy() will never be called on my service.

Has anyone come up against this or anything similar while accessing other hardware? Any suggestions on how I might handle killing this leaked audio?

If i do a reboot of the phone, everything works fine once again. Does anyone know what may be causing this? I have the in call volume set to the highest.
