[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rocklee99:
ok, so i have finally decided i wanted to try a rom,ive been afraid of doing so and have only tried kernels because some question were never answered, so im looking for some assistance please

1) i would like to know, for those roms who remove apps, if i do a backup before i install the rom, and i later want to restore to the previous state, will all the apps come back? thats what confuses me the most... i dont want to have to go through ADB or something to get anything back...

2) and also i wanted to know if someone could help me pick a good rom to fit what im looking for:

speed

performance

GOOD BATTERY LIFE

possibly a vanilla lock screen (if i cant, oh well)

i dont want to have to go through confusing processes

3d gallery IF possible

Everything working (wifi, bt, 4g, 3g, camera etc.)

if i can keep the apps that would be nice, but if they are gone, i wanna know how to get sprint zone and qik and sprint tv back

stable

any help would be appreciated!!!:D

How do you place a voice call using the Jaw bone prime?
[Vibrant General] I'mDan2:
Jawbone voice call

I don't think you can until the next version of Android is released for our phones. I have the Jawbone and was used to that feature with previous phones.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
Yeah you have to wait till 2.2 comes out then you can. Should only be a few weeks to a month before it comes out, hopefully.

My friend got a Droid 2 yesterday, and when I was doing the obligatory "play around when he's not looking", I noticed there's a droid notification sound. It's awesome. Does anyone have it?
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
send me a e-mail (bigo0623@gmail.com) i have the droid-x ringtones/alarms/notifications... maybe the one you are looking for is in there...
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
Give me the name of the notification, and I'll pull it from the droid 2 system dump for yah :P
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
There's a thread around here somewhere that has a zip of all the droid notifs.

Dunno where exactly tho :p
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
Hey is there a big diffrents between Droid-x and Droid-2... in ringtones....
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
try this.. let me know

[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:

What.?

Your 2nd post didn't make much sense.
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
its a link to download droid 2 ringtones,notifications,ect....
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
Ohhh noo sorry, I read the one where you were asking about the differences between a droid x and droid 2 wrong.

Ya, that's where I was going to pull the files from when he gave me the name, and I think they are the same when it comes to the media folder.

EDIT-

For those who don't want to wait the large install time for the whole system dump-

Here's the media file I mirrored it for you guys.

http://www.4shared.com/file/Ft4elcND/media.html

Don't replace the hero's with it, as I have no idea if the boot animation is compatible. I'm not responsible for anything that happens :P. Just pull the sounds you want out of it, and place them in the Hero's media folder.
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
from what i can see its one or two ringtones that droid 2 has that droid x doesn't.. so i just put theme all in my phone under one folder...and called it super droid x/2.. :cool: lol

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asrrin29:
This is really interesting. I'm into astronomy and it would be awesome to not have the phone blind me everytime I turn it on during an observing session to use it for google sky and the atomic clock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkfalz:
Apparently no dev types are interested enough to tell us that they are not interested. :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TexUs:
No doubt.

This thing is blinding even on the lowest brightness setting.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkfalz:
Yes, the brightness is pretty ridiculous. Is this because of the AMOLED screen? Can't set brightness below "blinding" due to no backlight?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
I have heard that the leaked I897UCJH2 rom has a lower mininal brightness; which might help with the blinding brightness at night, and also helps bettery a bit.

Not sure if you guys are interested in leaked ROMs but I'm sure if Samsung does not release it that a cook will make a custom rom from it.

Me too. I'm jealous of the iphone star map program. The authors were smart enough to make it all black and red. You can tell none of the google authors star gaze in their spare time with all that color.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThisWasATriumph:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berserk87:
I seem to recal hearing that at a certain point when the voltage is too low the screen will still work, but you see glitches/artifacts.

So im assuming this is why the min brightness is set where it is.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2snowboards88:
There is that very low brightness that occurs when you have less than 10% battery life. I wish they would make that brightness user selectable.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinyboss:
Even if the screen cannot be physically set below a certain level of brightness, it would be trivial to have the OS do the equivalent of putting a partially-transparent black rectangle over the screen. Sure, color fidelity would suffer, but it would be a welcome option anyway--I have seriously considered wearing sunglasses in bed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berserk87:
wow, i think your right.

instead of trying to set the brighness lower just put a transparent gray object that sites on top of all the windows.

It would have the same effect and save tons of battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soccer1:
You can!

Search for a widget called Curvefish Brightness Level in the market. Set it to 0% brightness, which appears to be the same as the low battery life brightness.

[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
hi...

long story short...

my 8gb class 6 card was stolen.. have a 16gb class 6 coming at end of week. i was running DC2.1 last custom ROM. was also using apps2sd and it was working great!

question?

should I go ahead and get Froyo?

will its version of app2sd be as good as the 2.1 version? because with the efficient apps2sd on 2.1.. i am still pushing the limits of the memory.
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
who the hell steals sd cards?
[Hero CDMA General] YoungSinema:
Is there even a stable release of Froyo yet?
[Hero CDMA General] D3FAULT:
Stable, yes. Final, no.

Look in the dev forum for CM6 RC1.

@OP:

Yea, get Froyo.
[Hero CDMA General] LanceLet:
I came from French Toast, and I thought that was fast. Froyo, no lie is lighting quick. The Apps to SD innate seem much better at handling it too.. but that's just what I think. Plus you can see what apps are on your SD card on the phone. I recommend it. Even though it's not final. everything I use the phone for works on froyo, including camera.
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
I'd definitely recommend using FroYo... it's ridiculously fast, gets good battery life, and you get access to new apps like Voice Actions.
[Hero CDMA General] Nannuq:
I have a 16g class 6 and i am running the current build of cm6 for the hero. I haven't had a single issue. its fast thank you devs

so yea get froyo.
[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
thanks everyone... i guess I will give Froyo a try.. :D

does it fix the phone lag... staring calls?
[Hero CDMA General] wadeheisen:
Haven't had any problems. Another bonus is that Froyo takes about half the space of 2.1 with Sense.
[Hero CDMA General] general_jimbo:
Is there a froyo with sense? I need it for HTC sync for use with outlook 2010. Also, why do people make up such crazy names for ROMS? I spend too much time trying to figure out what it is, and who made it, what version it is, do all the features work, what radio am I supposed to use. Isn't there a way to simplify this?
[Hero CDMA General] ipfreelytech:
the froyo rom here is cyanogenmod6 its named after the cyanogen and is the sixth version of the multi platform android rom he and his team have put out. I do agree that some of the rom names are downright ridiculous and the word art junk I've seen for some of them just seems really lame and immature (think high school class projects with crap word art thrown in)

NO there is no sense 2.2 rom and there may or may not ever be one. Also before it gets asked in this thread, NO CM6 DOES NOT HAVE FLASH!

why are you syncing your phone to outlook? both outlook and the phone should sync to your calandar and email provider, your doing it kinda backwards. outlook is a client, and the phone is a client. why sync one client to another instead of syncing both clients directly to the service provider?

O/T but outlook is a terrible email client, bloated as hell and poorly written. I wouldn't recommend anyone use it unless they have a need to talk to an exchange server.
[Hero CDMA General] iviyth0s:
Everything works yes but it is NOT lightning quick, even with the same 730mhz. 2.1 was ALOT faster

Nope along with performance my battery life is alot worse

Don't get me wrong it is VERY stable for what it is (the only issue being the LEDs being messed up which there's a fix for) but 2.1 was alot faster for me. My GBA emulator is really laggy and useless with 2.2
[Hero CDMA General] tejasrichard:
Pics or GTFO.
[Hero CDMA General] wingzfan:
The cm6 build is good but Ive gone back to fresh. The a2sd isnt as good imo as darks however you can integrate a2sd into cm6 and bypass the froyo version. Battery life was pretty random for me. I caibrated my battery and one use I got about 7 hours of streaming slacker over wifi and using a bluetooth headset to listen. Recharged and the next go around I gout 4 1/2 hours. personally 7 hours of that kind of use is damn good for me but 4 1/2 is a drastic drop. I didnt like the fact that it was ran at 691, I think my phone runs better running around 600. Above that and it can get a bit jumpy (oc widget and setcpu wouldnt maintain a frequency and the battery fix was too involved for my liking). Also I started getting a ton of FC's in launcherpro and the browser.

That being said, I made a nandroid so I can go back to it if I like but for now Im sticking with fresh's rom. The only feature I would like is the new google voice search but I rarely use voice functions anyways.

Edit: Scratch that, I loaded the updated nightly build and alot of my issues seem to be gone and OC Widget is holding at 576 so Im calibrating the battery and gonna test again.

I cannot believe I havent fried this phone after the amount of flashing and crap Ive done on it.
[Hero CDMA General] iviyth0s:
of what :confused:
[Hero CDMA General] iczerjones:
That. =P

I'm also in the process of calibrating the battery as my CM6 battery performance compared to Fresh 2.3.3 was pretty abysmal, but if it's NOT lightning quick, you're doing it wrong. :p

(CM6 is f-f-ffAST! Using the decad3nce #7 8/18 uncapped kernel currently, but even the included kernel was perfection)
[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
hi all...

i tried to flash this blue rom...

it did not work.

I lost my SD card. got a replacement 16gb class6.

I also have an old 1gb class2.

i have been rooted since I got the phone in Dec and have flashed many ROMs with no issues. I was last on DC 2.1 custom Rom.

it just gets stuck in "HTC" splash screen. wait 15-30 mins. never comes out. here is what I have done...

each time i wipe the data and Dalvik.

flash the 2.2 ROM.

both from the 1gb and the 16gb.

just stuck in the black screen "htc"

what do I need to do?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] delivery_dragon:
I've checked all the other forums and threads and use search, but I can't find it.

So I've read people talking about being able to change a few options in spare parts, such as the color of notification text in the status bar ( which would be usueful for themes like DarkStar, where the status bar is black and you can't read the text). but I can't figure out how to do that, all I get in spare parts is the device info, animations, haptic feedback etc. I'm sure the answer is plain as heck but I just don't know. I even tried downloading a newer version of the app. thanks for any help.

I"m on a verizon touch running Sagarom froyo ultralite v1.2.1. AKA Incubus26jc's supefroyo 2.2 (Rls 12)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
To do this you need a cmmod based build, and the option is in settings under cyanogen mod settings.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
In CM6 its in options, in older versions I've only found it in the spare parts app.

[General Questions and Answers] CrazyDelta:
Hello All,

My friend is planning on getting an Android phone. This will be his first Android phone as he mostly sticks with one platform for a long long time.

His current phone is an old palm device.

He's very serious about security and has a few other questions as well, which i pasted down below. I am not as experienced in this stuff, so I hope some of your could help. Thanks.

Security

When you lock out the handset, what happens to the raw data? Is the data overwritten or is only the file system wiped?

Right now my handset keeps the files that I don't use all of the time in an encrypted format. If I need to access a client file, I have to enter a password that decrypts the file. It takes some time, but this way if I loose my handset in a taxi it's only my cash that's gone & not my credibility as a professional. If I choose to remotely wipe my handset, random data is entered across the entire memory device, not only the file system, making most data recovery tools irrelevant.

Automated calling card apps

1) I buy a calling card from 7-11 to make long distance calls (not a SIM)

2) I put the phone number & password into my handset

3) When I dial a non-Hong Kong number it calls the calling card number instead & puts in the password for me

This saves me a wack of dough, especially when calling to China.

Would this work on Android?

Calendars

Are the calendars color coded? (Stupid Q, but iPhone can't do it)

ex) Work = Red, Personal = Blue

Syncing

If I sync through the cloud is the data all raw? Can anyone just look through my contacts up as easy as they can look through my email? I've found a way to avoid the cloud with contacts, but I'd use the Cloud if all the data is encrypted on each end.

Password Management

I've been using an encrypted password manager for years now. I have a desktop client and a handset client that sync across the cable. Any changes on one are reflected in the other, but it be locked up and secure.

Hope some professional Android users here could help answer some of these questions.

Thanks.

Yes. Every 'account' you add will be given a different calendar colour by the HTC Stock widget. Eg. Work - Red / GMail - Blue / Facebook - Green etc.

Thanks in advanced.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RustyGrom:
Resources for an application should be included in your visual studio project as content or as an embedded resource.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kh9n:
Thanks RustyGrom, I got you point. Beside to deploy those content to Emulator, is there any chance to get access to app's isolation storage from PC, either by coding or tools?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RustyGrom:
You could code an HTTP client that talks to a web service running on the PC and grabs data/files from it.

Hi,

I am new to this forum. sorry if i repeat the question but I tried looking all over and I could not find any answer for my question, which is as follows...

1. If I experiment froyo 2.2 on my HTC HD2, how do i swith to and forth between Android (froyo 2.2) OS and Windows Mobile OS. Is it easy to do so?

2. If I don't like froyo running on my HTC HD2 because of technical difficulty, how do I switch back to original HD2 operating system, like I never tried Froyo installation (in other words - how do i completely uninstall froyo from the device)?

Sorry if I repeated the questions, but, again as I said, I could not found it on the forum.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] archael:
It actually just runs from the memory card so basically you just have to restart the phone, let it load windows mobile then delete the android mobile on the sd card. Below is the section for android roms basically just download and unzip to your sd card in an "Android" folder there might be more to it, but there is a thread with instructions too.

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=735
[General Questions and Answers] TheRealW1g1dy:
I had the same question and searching for the answer has led me to your post. I understand that the Froyo system files reside on the SD card but I'd imagine some sort of startup file on the phone itself has to be modified to point the boot sequence to the SD card. Is that correct and if so, what file(s) is modified on the phone? More specifically, I'm researching the Froyo install and want to do it without any custom ROMs, just stock, but I'd like to make sure I can remove all traces should I need to send it in for warranty purposes.

abc12121, did you get any more information on this that you could share? Can anybody else explain what, if anything, is modified on the phone to point to the Froyo install on the SD card? Or how the boot process works?

Thanks!
