I have noticed that there have been many posts in both general and development forums with general questions that have nothing to do with the purpose of either forum.

If a mod is reading this, I believe there should be a Q&A forum like on the Nexus One page where people who just have simple questions can post them instead of filling the General/Dev page with irrelevant info.

as a reminder:

the android development page is for developers. if you are not a developer or asking a development question then please don't post there

It seems that Accu Weather changed their site, so now you can't get the city codes from the URL in the address bar.

Does anyone have an idea on how to get the codes from their site?

I need the code for Torgau, Germany and a friend of mine is looking for Doetinchem, Netherlands.
[HD2 General] Sven424:
Hi,

if you use Firefox as your browser, just install the addon Forecastfox. In the add on you can search for your city and the needed code is visible in the options of the add in. Torgau is EUR|DE|GM014|TORGAU|

bye

[HD2 General] blackdog7:
But not anymore! :-(

Does anyone know if I can add a second line to an Evo or if I have a second sprint phone add that line to my Evo but leave the billing alone. Work phone deal so I am trying no to have to carry to Android Smart Phones.

Thanks for your help...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvaj:
Google voice......??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrozzi:
as far as leaving the billing alone unfortunately no. unless your second phone had wifi, you had google voice and that phone always had a wifi connection. other than that its only 20$ to add a line (as long as your on the everything data plan, which you should be its the best deal). so for 20$ your second line will get any mobile anytime. unlimited data, text, pic mms. only thing that will affect your bill is if you go over your land line mins.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodelyfe:
just register for a google voice account

and configure your phone to use it.

you will have the option of dialing out using your google voice number or just your regular number.

you can also set however many devices you have on the same number (not that you have to have 2 devices to have one number)

google voice is great!

you can even set up different voicemail greetings for each number that calls you. you can also block numbers.
[Desire General] Phorz:
Hey guys.

Just rooted and debranded my desire this week to finally be able to get some froyo onto my Desire. I love the new features, and the general speed, but the browser is a total letdown for me. It has been reported before numerous times on this forum, and i am experiencing the same laggy scrolling. I have Leedroid 1.8 right now which came with an adblocker, and ive got plugins set to "on demand". Still that doesnt really help the whole experience.

Now what i would love is to have the 2.1 browser back. I even want flash lite back instead of full flash. Hands down, it is laggy as hell, and i would only use it to show off to friends with iphones. Flash lite didnt work most of the time, but when it worked it did its job better than full flash, sad but true.

Now it all comes down to the question: Is there a 2.2 rom availible with the 2.1 browser? If not, is cooking a rom like that even possible?

Im not far from going back to 2.1, because the browser is of big importance to me. Thanks for any help.

Edit: Oh, and using a different browser is not an option for me. I just dont like the browsers availible on the market (Dolphin HD, Opera mini, Xscope, Skyfire...)
[Desire General] faddys123:
i dont know to be honest but you can download dolphin browser its better than stock anyway
[Desire General] faddys123:
posted this before the edit sorry
[Desire General] th3:
Since I don't have your browser problem on the OTA HTC 2.2 but the entire opposite experience, I'd say try a different ROM to compare. And try without moving any regular apps to SD and with. I'm starting to see a small trend where the SD card file reads are killing the CPU usage with too many loads from apps moved to the flash.

Trying to install 2.1 browser APK on mine reads "incompatible version".

I downloaded the app and set it up since I have blockbuster online anyways. Didn't know I would have to pay for movies. That sucks. It also fc's a lot. Anyone else try it yet?

Very bad reviews and like you said they charge $4 for movies.

[Nexus One General] mcp2009:
blockbuster removed it from the market i think. I read it from androidcentral. they said the app isn't optimized for other phones but they will make it soon
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
netflix is better, and with the soon to be released netflix app, it will totally dominate.
[Nexus One General] Arcarsenal:
Exactly. Not to mention that Blockbuster is pretty much bankrupt.
[Nexus One General] MaximReapage:
Lol was gonna ask for your source, then just googled it myself xD
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
not to put blockbuster down, but it really just cant compete with the no added fee instant streams and the unlimited movie/month dvd's for only $9. The only thing that can compete is Redbox and its doing quite well(off topic) especially since redbox is currently beta testing game rentals in their kiosks here in Reno.
[Nexus One General] junkiehyjinx:
I hope they change the app to free or cheaper rentals cause I use blockbuster online like crazy. I love it cause I can exchange a movie in the store for a new release on tuesdays. Can't even get a lot of new movies from netflix.

i uninstalled it, my friend told me bout using picasa web albums to stream movies. works pretty good

Has anyone successfully completed Odin One-Click on a Mac using a VM? Odin can see the COM port just fine before I complete the battery/sim/downloader ritual. No problem getting into download mode - but I am unable to make the USB connection as before. I'm stumped.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anim8ED_1:
Same boat (using Parallels).

I had to revert back to my 7yr old Sony Vaio to do it. Couldn't get Odin to recognize the device.

I had to partition my hard drive and use boot camp to get ODIN to work on my mac. That's about the only way I got it to work. I tried Parallels and got the same as you couldn't get it working.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
Odin won't work in a VM. I ran into this same problem flashing firmware on the Moment as well. I think it sucks that there isn't a Mac version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cebb:
has anyone gotten odin to work on a mac yet?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] er1cha:
Yes! i got it to work tonight (on my i9000). I couldn't find anything confirming it working on either phone, so i thought i would just try it out myself.

Using Parallels 5 on OS X 10.5, just make sure you get the windows drivers for the phone, ODIN will recognize.

Sorry for rezzing this thread, but i wanted to let people know it will work through parallels.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
lol might want to explain " drivers " to the mac guys

hahaha
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrd49:
Are you using parallels? I've had trouble with parallels and getting the usb connection through from the mac hardware into windows. I've found a way to get it to work:

1. Connect the phone while booted normally, USB debugging on.

2. Use the version of odin in the AIO captivate tool. Opening odin here will automatically put the phone into download mode. I suspect that this is the same as giving the phone an adb download command from command line in the PC, but I haven't bothered to install the android sdk in windows to find out.

3. For some reason, telling the phone to reboot to download mode from windows makes it stay connected. You can now use odin.

Downside to this method: it doesn't work if your phone can't boot.

I've actually had occasional luck getting it to connect while forcing the phone to boot straight into download mode with the buttons on the phone. This seems to be a bug in parallels and/or the usb drivers in mac os.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Tried heimdall?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlevy73:
Yep still sucks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0ngstr0us:
Bootcamp FTW!

Get it on Bootcamp.

Logically speaking, Vmware or Parallels runs on a main OS (OSX).

So an OS over an OS, the drivers won't recognize coz your main OS already did.

Just partition the HDD to a minimum (20gb) run that Bootcamp.

I got mine working btw.

(Win 7 Ultimate Bootcamp on Mac OSX Lion MacBook Pro late 2010.)

Peace out!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeepon:
i just used odin on my mac (lion os x)using parallel with windows xp home edition. when you plug in the phone, even in download mode, it asks if you wanna connect it to your mac or the VM. the weird thing is, it didnt work on my old captivate, but it works on my refurbished one i got a few days ago. i think it might be because i was running cm7 on my old one, and samsung froyo on the new one. but yes, as m0ngstr0us said, boot camp is always another option.

Succesful Flash w/ Parallels and SGS3

I know this isn't in the correct forum (Using a Verizon SGS3), but I wanted to post confirmation that this does indeed work. Your mileage may vary, but if the SGS3 can work, I'm assuming this applies for older Samsung devices as well:

Successfully ODIN'ed a new recovery IMG on Windows 7 (in conjunction with Parallels 6 for Mac OS X 10.6.8)

Used a random Windows 7 iso I had lying around. This was a brand new Windows installation, and no out-of-the-box modifications were made to OS X, Windows, or Parallels (except for downloading/installing the Samsung USB drivers, as suggested in a previous post).

My SGS3 was actually soft-bricked (Could not boot into recovery OR download mode.. Holding the power button would greet me with a "Could not do normal mode. Booting into Odin Mode" error)

Turned phone on (auto-booted into ODIN mode), plugged it into the Mac via USB, and was greeted by a dialog noting that a USB device was detected. It asked if I wanted to access the USB device via Mac or Windows 7. Chose Windows 7, and Odin was able to connect to it flawlessly.

If there are any questions, please let me know. I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to find a solution (I'm on vacation in Germany and for some reason Windows PC's are avoided like the plague) and didn't want to go through the trouble of using Parallels unless it was confirmed working. For others in the same boat as me, let this be your confirmation. It works!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbardet:
I did almost the same thing but using Windows XP via Parallels.

I had bricked my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 trying to install JellyWiz RLS12 without first unlocking the bootloader.

So I used the guide found at below link to walk me through using Odin for the first time. My timing was very good as official 4.1.1 leak had just surfaced and the guide included a link to it. I unbricked with that and my phone is running as smooth as ever (and i love JB!)

HOWEVER - USB not recognized on my Mac. Android File Transfer also does not recognize the phone. And FoxFi of course isn't working, hoping for a workaround :/

Also, my phone appears to be "stock" and is not rooted. Not sure how to root now but i'm sure there are a million similar threads i can search on.

GUIDE i followed to successfully unbrick!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samirfor:
Worked!

I did it on Parallels 10.1.1!

Thanks everyone.

My steps:

Downloaded and installed Samsung USB Drivers for Windows on Windows 7 VM (google developer samsung usb driver)

Rebooted my VM

Turned off and disconnected my phone

Opened Odin

Turn on my phone on Downloading mode

Connected USB cable

Parallels asked if I want connect the device on Mac or VM, I choosed VM.

I waited the drivers are installed automatically.

I looked at Odin and the COM was appearing.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugojungle:
Hallo,

everytime one adjusts the volume of the HD2 with the devices hardware buttons, the step is very high.

I have been searching the forum, but I didn't find any solution, how to decrease the stepwidth - only have seen, that some other people have the same issue (but no solution).

Is there any possibility to manipulate the stepwitdh????

I have checked the registry and I am wondering if in one of the following reg.keys the stepwidth might be coded:

HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay

=> I guess this is the HTC Volume control screen, which appears when you press the hardware buttons. But I have no clue if one of the entries defines the stepwitdh.

The other possibility I see here:

HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume

I would like to have some feedback, before trying to mess in the registry.

I do remember there being a fix for this, as far as I can remember it was an image that you drop and dragged into your windows folder and that some how fixes it.

I do think it's quite annoying, it's also really laggy when I hold down my volume key as opposed to tap it per each jump in volume level.

Anyway I don't know where it is but hopefully someone can post it cause I'm after it aswell

[Desire General] windstate:
My desire was purchased on T-Mobile (has T-Mobile startup screen), I also bought an unlock code from them. I'm now using my o2 contract sim in the phone. I'm interested in updating the software to FROYO but have no idea how to go about it.

I don't want to do anything complicated and am happy to wait for an official release. I've read the network sends an update direct to your phone. In my case would this come from T-Mobile or o2?

When I check for system updates it says none are available. My software number is 1.15.110.11

I've looked around the forum for ages but I still can't get a definite answer to my question.
[Desire General] I RICHY I:
You can be waiting for a very long time for froyo from a network provider.

It's easy to debrand and upgrade your phone. Create a goldcard & download an official ROM. Then you can simply upgrade OTA. There's loads of guides on this forum.
[Desire General] k.aalai:
Hi there!

Understand your situation, since I had almost exactly the same circumstances (mine is running on orange)! I couldnt get a definite answer either, so bit the bullet anyway and did it, here is how:

1-rooted the phone by UnrEVOked method (really couldnt be bothered by the goldcard etc method; this method was easy, just had some driver install problems since the guide isnt too good on this point, but its easy to figure it out)

2-Installed the new radio

3-installed the generic rooted 2.2 ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=741775, just by doing an easy straighforward update from the sdcard by going to the bootloader.

Phone was still UNLOCKED,and all running ok. Just had an issue where the phone would say "sim card changed, do you want ot load settings etc". Say NO, otherwise you lose your wallpapers, scenes, etc settings, and you have to redo the whole shebang.

Hope your experience is same as mine, im a noob too, so dont take anything for granted (your phone may have different firmware from mine etc), and make doubly sure before you go ahead!

Good luck.
[Desire General] forgot10:
Hi mate.

I'm in exact the same situation (German T-mobile 2.1 Softnumber: 1.15.110.11). Your guide looks awesome!!! Can you please please please write it in a bit detail?? from a factory branded 2.1 to root, then to froyo?? please??

I read the UnrEVOked guide from rootmydroid.co.uk

but looks like I only need to the first half for your step 1?

does it root the phone ? does it wipe all my settings and apps???

I also don't know what to do with the radio in your step 2??

can you please help??!! THX soooooooooo much !!!!
[Desire General] windstate:
Hi thanks for the replies, very useful info.

Does rooting the phone invalidate the warranty?? That's what's putting me off doing it and why I'm happy to wait for an official update.
[Desire General] k.aalai:
Hey forgot10!

The step 2 of unrevoked guide is installing the ROM of your choice. Just pick the new ROM you want (from many here and other forums, I just picked a rooted generic 2.2), and install as per part 2 of the unrevoked guide.

2.2 requires a new radio, which is linked and shown in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=741775. Installing the radio doesnt wipe the data, but you seem to need to WIPE (from the recovery image) before putting the new ROM. So use TItanium Backup, or MYbackup, to save your apps, and user data on the SD card, then when the new ROM is installed, you reinstall one of those apps (from market) then rewrtie your apps/data!

As per warranty, check the other threads to be sure, but i think, yes it does invalidate your warranty, but im not 100% certain!

.Images are attched and u can understand. Just do the settings as they are in image in setcpu and enable advanced taskkiller to kill background app evrytime u switch of screen settings are:

won't hurt u much but making it

crazy

will somtimes restart sense )

autokill freq. :when screen of

thats all for this app and ignore list is there also.. for which u don't wanna

close

.

now in set cpu when in default on demand setting with

max 994000

it will give u 12 hrs backup (checked with batteryminder) (on the older kernels check da new images)

but set it to

max 768000

if u r just using manu or callin (not running heavy games or somthing) this will conserve enough battery (surprising :eek: +10 hrs standby avg.) u can change this simply by getting to taskbar above in battry level profile(see images).

and then in profiles check it is
