I use XDA-UC now although sashimi can be used independently of the rom.

Actually, I watch Golden Girls ALL the time.
[Off-topic] Original Android <3ers!:
I'd be more interested if you were watching Seventh Heaven rather then Golden Girls. I remember we used to wake up on Saturday mornings and I'd go into the living room and sit on the couch behind my mom and she had already made breakfast and we'd sit there, eat, and watch Golden Girls. Good times man.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] czerdrill:
I already know how to remap the camera and volume rocker keys on the Motorola Droid 1, but was wondering if there is a way to remap the 4 softkeys along the bottom of the phone (back, menu, home, search). Either an app or a hack is fine, but has anyone successfully done this? I wanted to remap my search key to be the power button. Don't know if that's possible or not.
[HD2 General] ericez:
Hi guys,

I am having some troubles getting notification messages from my calendar when i set it to remind me(the messages you get with "dismiss" and "snooze"). I made a task and set it to remind me and that works, but with the calendar it wont work.

Has anyone experienced this problem? And how might we solve it? thanks alot
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
did you set it to all day? if i remember correctly all day events dont show (though i may be miss remembering, and my phone isnt with me to test..)
[HD2 General] ericez:
Nope, its set between a specific time period not an all day event.

I happen to have 2 hd2's(the other one is my son's), and the calendar notfications work on his. so right now i am tring to find something related to calendar/reminder in the registry to see if any values might be different.

Any ideas on where the calendar stuff is in the registry?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
have you checked settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifications tab

event - reminders, make sure 'display message on screen' is checked?
[HD2 General] ericez:
Yep i have already seen all those setting and changed them like you say but no dice.

Not having much luck with the registry settings either...I thought i had it when i found a difference between my hd2 and my sons in the registry HKCU : ControlPanel\Notifications\{15F11F90-8A5F-454c-89FC-BA9B7AAB0CAD} where the "duration" key in mine was a value of 5 and my sons 0. So i changed mine to 0 as well but no luck so far :(

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorguts:
I recently traded my Sammy Moment for a HERO. I am rooted and flashed but found that some ROMS gave me trouble; Fresh being one of them. Looping boot screens and slow performance contrary to what I read about the roms I flash. Is there anything I may be missing? I rooted via ADB and did find an issue while the recovery was flashing it said: MD5 failure and no space; but recovery still flashed and works.

Last I was on XDA was with my G1 and Tilt. Anyone wanna hip me to what I have been missing? By the way I have succefully flashed the BUUF rom and and the Zen, darch booted with FC's and the others looped.

I wiped dalvik and system and reformated my SD.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
Does your Hero have "With Google" branding?

Some of the older phones don't. And at that, some of the older chipset phones can't over clock as high, and OC'd roms will cause a boot loop.

That's the only thing I can think of that wil lbe causing the issue.

You should also try to Wipe everything under the wipe menu except maybe rotate and batt stats before you flash a rom. I always try to wipe clean before I flash.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theresthatguy:
What Kcarpenter said.

I got my Hero the first day out at BB. I can only clock to 710 otherwise phone starts blitzing.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Yeah, this is just what most of us here have learned to deal with, as this phone model is nearly a year old and built with hardware that isn't quite powerful enough to smoothly handle the software stuff we try to put on it these days. We are still way ahead of regular HTC/Sprint stock though which is nice.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan330:
other than what the others have said...

other options to try...

have you tried the DamageControl ROMs? they are very stable.

if issues persist... maybe you have a bad memory card? there were a rash of them and can cause weird issues.

or you have a bad hero! was it new? warranty??

if so.. get warranty trade in. if you can show issues with phone that is not related to flashing and rooting!!! :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aven_soulgazer:
Try froyo if you don't care about sense. I have yet to have a bootloop flashing nightlies. Flash a new bootloader, wipe dalvic, system and cache. I'd do each several times just to be sure. Use a new download and verify the checksum
[Captivate General] Citznfish:
I am trying to use appbrain but it just seems to work like the droid store. it tells me about updates, just like teh droid store. Really can't see why anyone uses appbrain. What am i missing here?
[Captivate General] mesasone:
You can install/uninstall apps from the app brain website
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Well, that's not literally true. You can select to install or uninstall from that site, which is handy. But you still need to go in through market via Appbrain app on your device, and you still need to individually select the OK buttons, etc for each app installing and uninstalling.

Ideally you would select install or uninstall from the site, then on the phone go on with the client, review the list and click the X to stop the action if one is wrong, and then let her rip.
[Captivate General] dewt:
Actually, it is literally true. If you install Appbrain's Fast Web Installer, it will install whatever app you click install on momentarily on your phone without any interaction from you on your phone.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Thanks. I was hoping someone would debunk my comments.

Seems everything has more tips and tricks to need to know to "git 'er done".
[Captivate General] E_man5112:
Thanks for the tip about the fast web installer, nice.

And I like the way appbrain updates more than market, plus it can be easier to click install apps, and sync them later to install (easier now with the fast web installer)
[Captivate General] A.VOID:
download the appbrain app and then use it to sync with appbrain.com

now all your app info is available on the site and it wil track your updates and/or replace your apps. iT makes it easier than hunting on the app store

Im looking for a screen protector that doesnt hinder picture quality or touch screen feel. I didnt plan on buying a screen protector because ive never been happy with how they make my touchscreens feel (Invisible Shield, BestSkinEver) but I have a small light scratch and want to eliminate any future scratches.
[Vibrant Accessories] dills84:
I went with ghost armor... they applied it for me for 18$ and its amazing.
[Vibrant Accessories] maggi101:
Reallook, hands down. It doesn't slow down swype, or dull the gorgeous screen. All air bubbles are gone after two days, and is a no water application.
[Vibrant Accessories] HoOnZ:
I also recommend the Realook screen protector. You hardly notice that there's a screen protector on your Vibrant. Swype is great on it.
[Vibrant Accessories] jamesd86:
I handed my phone to my friend earlier tonight and the first thing out of his mouth was that I really should put a screen protector on it.

I have a realook on it. :)
[Vibrant Accessories] ledbetter.james:

[Vibrant Accessories] disturkis4u:
I was using the clear freak for the past 3 weeks or so and I really liked it but I just switched to reallook and it's so much smoother! It's almost like it's too smooth now lol
[Vibrant Accessories] rubberwheels:
are the reallook screen protectors fingerprint friendly? im looing for one that doesnt leave any finger prints.
[Vibrant Accessories] androidmonkey:
So is the Realook protector similar to the Invisible Shield in terms of scratch resistance? What kind of material is it? The site says you can remove it,wash it, and reapply. That doesnt sound like tough protector like Invisible Shield or BestSkinEver (cannot be removed and reused). Is it just as scratch proof?

Anyone have any pics of it on their Vibrant? Thanks.
[Vibrant Accessories] dublj:
I also have the realook SP and love it. It is really easy to put on and I cant even tell it is there. It does show some prints when the screen is not on, but only then and they wcan be wiped off easily.
[Vibrant Accessories] kboater:
i had the CF and it was really bad, switched to the realook and its great
[Vibrant Accessories] disturkis4u:
It's definitely not smudge proof. But I have yet to see a smudge proof that doesn't mess up the screens clarity

[Vibrant Accessories] Deleted member 2854036:
Best one by far is realook. I just received mine today, ordered on ebay, received it in 4 days. Super simple installation. No bubbles, prefect fit. Contrary to other posts, no lost in sensitivity to touch or any of the home buttons at the bottom of the screen. Swype is still a breeze. Doesn't cause loss of quality in the screen. And best of all, its invisible, my wife can't even tell its on. Paried with the gel skin, best protection for this phenomenal phone. Only thing I can't comment on is the finder prints, as I just finished the installation.
[Vibrant Accessories] mikey98277:
Realook, had another protector on it that i bought from ebay, thought it was pretty good, until i put my realook on, and realized how the screen was supposed to be, swype is much quicker with this one, and i handed my wife my phone after i applied it, and she asked me why I removed my screen protector, so she couldn't even tell that it was on!
[Vibrant Accessories] mikey98277:
Not really, they are on amazon, once you order once, realook will give you a coupon code to use for your next purchase, 2 for like 12 bucks (realook price)is more than I paid for all of my other screen protectors I have tried for my vibrant, so far i have tried 4 brands, I stopped looking after i got my realook on my phone. well worth the money.
[Vibrant Accessories] speoples20:
+1 for Realook, was showing my phone to a customer and they asked why I didn't use a screen protector. I told them I was and they thought I was lying.:D Def the best one out there.
[Vibrant Accessories] all4degame:
Realook hands down is the best screen protector available and you can't even tell its there.
[Droid Incredible General] Ruggerxpunk:
We have all these methods to downgrade and apply the OTA.

But can't we just flash ROMs that devs from the OTA?

What's the point of accepting the OTA?
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
Well

1) Devs will need time to cook the OTA into a custom ROM, the OTA is ready on impact

2) The OTA does not require reinstalling your apps

3) Some have no problem with Verizon's stock ROMs and wouldn't want it cooked

4) Cooked roms tend to break things when adding and removing and mixing and matching (which is why cooked ROM threads are 99.9999999% bug reports) and some people would rather not have to deal with the extra bugs

5) Cooked roms are really to the taste of the cooker. If they don't like the facebook app, then I guess you won't have the facebook app; and if they like swype, well then you have swype. 1 person cooks, everyone else settles. That is not to everyones taste.
[Droid Incredible General] jp43:
The OTA may contain various fixes as the leaked versions may or may not be the final release - they may be test builds that were leaked to testers.
[Droid Incredible General] htc_woe_is_me:
You are right, there isn't any point in doing it other than to be one if the firsts to have the official up update. I'm sure it week be available by download here a day or two after the official is out, but the anticipation is killing me (us).

I am really anxious to see of the battery life is improved, also it would be nice to have all streaming audio problems fixed for good.

@jdmba - exactly!

[Droid Incredible General] mb02:
they may cook a new version from it, but i can guarantee unrevoked is gonna patch it with root and release it stock, no changes made. just like the leaks, they always released it unmodified besides root. also, if youre rooted and updated on a leak, whether or not the official ota saves all your apps etc. doesnt matter because you have to downgrade, requiring a complete wipe of everything, so theres nothing to save anyway. thats only beneficial if youre still on stock 2.1.

The only real benefit of official ota, is you dont have to wait. hopefully, rooting the official release wont prove to be difficult, then waiting would only be something like a day.

There's a couple threads in the Dev section. Happened to me as well. Call sprint and tell them you're getting an error. They will refresh your profile in the system and push it to your phone. Meantime stock prls should work wo issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alanmw86:
When i worked at sprint we had this happen every once and a while, you probably did ##786 to get your PRI correct? just try it again where you have good signal, normally its just from not auto programming correctly, but your best bets a call to sprint on this one.

Hello all,

I have an old device: THE TechFaith Lampson ^^ and I didn't find any flash or Rom for this device...

Since 2009, I have a blank screen when I boot the device, that's all :(

Can I repair it ?

Cheer, Franck.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
UPDATE: For example of dump, go to Post #3!

Thanks to Co0kieMonster, Chainfire and other people I use their tools (LuaConv, LuaC, LuaDec, CFC, Mode9Decode and some other).

Hello,

[OT]

I am planning on totally remaking Manila into something totally different.

[/OT]

Anyway, back to the topic.

I decided to use Manila, because it has builtin OpenGLES animations that can be decoded to XML, also it uses LUA scripts which are really easy to write, plus manila provides me access to all what I need - audio library, messaging, ...

But this requires A LOT of effort. That's why I decided to create something like Manila kitchen, that would build whole manila from source .lua, .png, .mode9 and .xml files and all the rest I just forgot, to the asd123qwer_manila files.

Advantage of this is, that when some lua script has does require something like messaging\messaging.luac, it really is there, so you don't have to via manilahash.exe search for that file, disassemble, edit etc. Kitchen will do all of this itself :)

As of now, I have done part, which will grab folder filled with those _manila files, disassemble the lua files, it can delete unneeded langs in xml (afterall, all will be deleted for my purpose), those disassembled .lua files renames by the list (thanks to Co0kieMonster and others who helped him to fill it) it has, creates virtual original file structure. And from this structure, it again rebuilds into output directory. (And yes, it takes that base is \windows\htc, it just seemed useless to have there, since all scripts have that base name)

Example:

from:

C:\ManilaSourceKitchen\Dump\08c9c9cc_manila

C:\ManilaSourceKitchen\Dump\575c2a6d_manila

happens

C:\ManilaSourceKitchen\Source\scripts\activesyncdetect.luac

C:\ManilaSourceKitchen\Source\scripts\audio\music_property.luac

etc.

(Testing and developing is on TF3D 2.1, but will be Sense 2.1/2.5 compatible too.)

Current progress

-- LUA:

- Disassemble

- Move to Source folder with propriate name

- Compile back to _manila file

-- XML:

- Delete languages you don't want

- Move to Source folder with propriate name

- Compile (copy) back to _manila file

-- MODE9:

- Decompile from binary to XML

- Move to Source folder with propriate name

- Compile back to _manila file

-- QTC:

- Revert to PNG from QTC

- Move to Source folder with propriate name

- Compile back to _manila file

-- Kitchen:

- UI

Who's interested? :)

PS: The "new" Manila, simple picture (MSPaint, mouse, 2 minutes):
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mwalt2:
Sounds very interesting. It will be great to see what you come up with.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
I've been working another hour and half and I made another progress. Now is being decmopiled what can be:

LUA -> luac source code

MODE9 -> XML (editable view of binary mode9)

QTC -> PNG

proper file naming from names.txt -- still needs updating. For TF3D there is about 160 files without name. But with this it is easy to find out what is missing, because when some scripts asks for \Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\someimage.qtc, I can easily check, if that file is there. If not, I simply check it's hash and then find propriate file, add it to names.txt and voila :).

To show you how does it look atm, I enclose ZIPped TF3D dump from my ROM.

All files in Sand\*_manila are those without proper records in names.txt which has to be discovered their original name.

Shall look forward to seeing what comes of this.

Welcome aboard Calvin123.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
The "Decompiling" part is a bit of problem, because lua decompiler isn't 100% accurate, so recompile "what you just dumped" doesn't work on all files. Images yes, XML yes, mode9 yes, not not lua scripts.

Anyway, those remaining _manila files are now being bruteforced. Couldn't find link to them in require("somescript"), nor mode9 files :(. It goes quite fast, hope to get results till 2 hours from now (counting max 30 filename length + .luac name). Bruteforce to find original filenames will be enclosed too, IMHO best way to find original filename, if you can't find it manually by checking dependencies in mode9 and luac

[EVO 4G General] psych2l:
This is what I found about the interactive governor in github:

cpufreq: interactive: New 'interactive' governor

New interactive governor.

This governor is designed for latency sensitive workloads, UI interaction for

example.

Advantages:

+ significantly more responsive to ramp cpu up when required (UI interaction)

+ more consistent ramping, existing governors do their cpu load sampling in a

workqueue context, the 'interactive' governor does this in a timer context, which

gives more consistent cpu load sampling.

+ higher priority for cpu frequency increase, rt_workqueue is used for scaling

up, giving the remaining tasks the cpu performance benefit, unlike existing

governors which schedule rampup work to occur after your performance starved

tasks have completed.

Existing governors sample cpu load at a particular rate, typically

every X ms. Which can lead to under powering UI threads when the user has

interacted with an idle system until the next sample period happns.

The 'interactive' governor has a different approach. Instead of sampling the cpu

at a specified rate, the governor will scale the cpu frequency up when coming

out of idle. When the cpu comes out of idle, a timer is configured to fire

within 1-2 ticks. If the cpu is 100% busy from exiting idle to when the timer

fires then we assume the cpu is underpowered and ramp to MAX speed.

If the cpu was not 100% busy, then the governor evaluates the cpu load over the

last 'min_sample_rate' (default 50000 uS) to determine the cpu speed to ramp down

to.

There is only one tuneable for this governor:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/min_sample_rate:

The minimum ammount of time to spend at the current frequency before

ramping down. This is to ensure that the governor has seen enough

historic cpu load data to determine the appropriate workload.

Default is 5000 uS.

Also, in the original application thread as explained by the dev, "nice" processes are:

2. Nice processes are used by the IO scheduler to designate a low-priority process. Ignore nice load basically tells ondemand to disregard processes with higher nice values.
