You can edit RFS easily, only mount rfs and replace file inside and umount. I have made a custom rom for myself like this. You can't oversize the RFS, that's the only restriction.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Case_:
Hmm, could you perhaps elaborate on this (or point me somewhere where I can find more about this)? If I mount the RFS and try to write to it, I get "read only" errors, even if I mount it as RW...?

You know the feeling when you repeatedly try something without any luck and then someone tells you something SO obvious and you realize that this painfully obvious thing was EXACTLY what should've occured to you long time ago, except it didn't?

That's how I feel right now...

Thanks. It works. Of course it works... ;)

Can you check the file? I've donwloaded it several times and when extracting it I get the message that the file is corrupted.

I'll edit the previous link as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] appelflap:
and... thank you! No extraction errors anymore. So, is there anything that's usuable for the Galaxy S?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Case_:
Well, most of it, I believe. Apps and framework I'm almost 100% sure will work just fine. Libs - not so sure, might need some tinkering. Didn't yet have time to play with it today.

What about GPSSetup2 :D

I don't know there's something funny about it. Like hey, did we see GPSSetup1 on our Galaxy S? And maybe we forget to run that ?

Don't know if you all consider this "warez" or not, but I don't. I call it selling open source code. :P If you do, feel free to just delete this. :P

Also, I'm aware someone already posted FreeRoot (same thing as this), but I just wanted to crack it myself for fun/experience. :)

Hi Devs,

first of all, sorry for starting a new thread, but searched the forum and didn't find exactly that.

Like I've read, there is no audio over USB support built-in to our mighty Desire.

I tried a few different microUSB to 3.5mm jack adapters from ebay - even one declared as for HTC Desire. Checked the usb-pins-assignment also and it seems that HTC hasn't built in (or turned off) that function in opposite to some other manufacturers.

So will it be possible to write a rom or a kernel, that'll support that?

If it is possible, I would appreciate a few hints what I'll have to do, to get this thing working! :)

Thanks in advance!
[Desire General] mr.r9:
Can I know why you need that? Is it for A/V out?
[Desire General] TxDLoaD:
Its not possible to send analog audio signal over the usb since its a standard usb plug. Only the old htc phones with extUSB had audio, but its was a bigger plug with more pins.

On that note i dont get why you want to get audio from there, when theres a nice 3.5mm jack socket on the top of the phone.
[Desire General] brianius:
Thanks for your quick answers!

Yes, since there are no music docks for desire I built my own and it has to be possible, other phones with microUSB have that function - why not ours?

I know the old extUSB plug from my magic, there it is no problem. But there must be a way to get this working! I think it is only a software and/or driver issue.

If you'll get a music dock you'll have to plugin the phone + jack everytime? ? ? Look on ebay there are a few universal docks over microUSB, but not working for the nearly best and most sold android phone on market?

Pls give me some hints if there is a way to do that - everything is possible! :)

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] prodygee:
Umm, well not really. Because who says that the USB port of your phone is connected the right way internally to actually SEND data over the cable/dock.

I have no idea on how to do it. Thats just what I think, but with Android, a LOT is possible :P
[Desire General] brianius:
YEAH IT IS! :)

On Nexus one they built in extra pins for docking and audio over that works like a charm.

I'm having a few adapters microUSB to 3.5mm jack for Motorola,Samsung,Nokia...phones from ebay, but not one reaction from Desire :(

Maybe the adapter for Desire needs a Digital-to-analog converter to get analog audio out of the microUSB port.

But no technical details over that from HTC - does anyone know more about the microUSB connections on our Desire? Tried to get a technical manual for Desire, but no chance on google...

If there is no other solution, I'll have to disassemble my expensive Desire to get a view on connections and maybe some hints which IC is managing the microUSB.

Does any dev know what would be possible by modding a kernel or rom?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire General] murtinez:
im also looking for something like this, though i want digital-audio out. for example in my car, plug and play so i get spotify from my usb to my stereo and able to control spotify from my stereo. there is no problem for this if you use iphone, though id like to be able to do it on my htc.

any solution?
[Desire General] pirabid:
Ability to stream out the audio through USB would be something nice to have.
[Desire General] Jereso:
There's a guide online on how to splice a USB and 3.5mm cable to the Apple USB cord so that you can charge and play audio on ipod accessories, as long as you don't mind having USB and audio plugged in at the same time. http://www.erwanmace.com/2012/07/ipod-dock-android/

But I love titanium and did purchase the full version.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
I use Titanium Backup because it backs up my settings, apps, data, preferences, WiFi networks, Bluetooth pairings, Cyanogenmod Settings, etc.

Really, all I do after a wipe is to skip to the home screen, open market, add my Google Account, download Titanium Backup, and go to Menu>Batch>Restore everything
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kris54241:
It's a Google backup feature...enabled in cm roms only...it's actually quite nice if you are flashing roms everyday
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldash:
Is there anyway to get rid of the backup feature, it's pretty pointless without data and I'd rather restore my apps with Titanium...

I just wiped and reflashed and when it asked if I wanted to use Google backup, I unchecked the box, but it started downloading everything anyway...

Nevermind, I found it...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reekotubbs:
Any body able to get an apk, to enable this on non cm roms?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firemedic1343:
Titanium is awesome and worth every penny for the paid version if you switch roms frequently. If you don't mind a little extra button mashing the free version works well.

It saves data and the version of the app your backing up. Which is really useful if you don't want the updated version of any particular app.

So what is your question? Not to sound like an ass, but you sound like a 5 year old who just dropped his ice cream cone!

Have you searched for what you are looking for already? There is a lot of threads that deal with 2.2 and tethering.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadhouseMedic:
From what I can decipher from your horrid grammar is that you installed the OTA over your root and now multitouch and tethering don't work.

For right now you're screwed. Should pay attention to the forums when it said to NOT apply the OTA until it was rooted. Oh well. Sorry.

You've been here over 2 years and don't know to avoid OTA's or even more pathetically how to ask a question?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpwhre:
not sure how you installed ota over a rooted device. maybe you only rooted with no nand unlock and stayed on stock rom. i rooted and nand unlocked when I first got the phone and went to custom roms, and this would give me an update error of the triangle with the ! in middle when ota updates were released and i tried to install update. don't make it simple, try to give more detail please. there is talk about droid multi touch keyboard not working on 2.2 and talk of no wireless tether working either. it's been said that certian roms with godzsons kernel will get you wifi router to work, but it changes your cam down to 3mp. I have htc ota froyo 2.2 (rooted) odex rom from netarchy and was able to find that a search for wireless tether come up a new version not on the market. search for wireless tether 2.0.5 pre7. If you still have root on your phone, that will give you wireless tether without messing up your cam. good luck
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lotddragon:
I know this has probably been asked before, and I know that it is probably in the forums but I don't have the actual time to fully search right now. Is it possible to downgrade to an earlier version of android on the Evo, then root? I know when 1.6 was released for the G1 and MyTouch, you could go back down to RC29, exploit the loop and then root with the new 2.1. Any answer, no matter how simple of one, would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I just reinstalled Fresh 3.1.0.1 in hopes of getting PRI (1.40) with no success. Decided to give up after the 5th try. Now I'm trying to install the new Google Search and Voice Search as well as the new Facebook. I remember the update for that being on Fresh Updater. However, now I'm not showing any updates on it whatsoever. I tried checking Experimental ROMs and updating the ROM Update Server with no success.

Any ideas?!

[Captivate General] PizzaAmerican23:
engadget.com/2010/07/03/nexus-one-sees-red-nearly-doubles-battery-life-video/

i know theres a big difference between AMOLED and super LCD, but if there a way to switch to this mode to save battery i would use it all the time.

Someone mentioned that blacks use less power on the captivate screen. Is this true?
[Captivate General] djgleebs:
Black does use less battery, as it basically turns those pixels off, and the displace does use most of the battery life.

I personally have had ever increasing battery life, and I have never had trouble getting a full 24 hours. Be sure to run down the batter to 0% and charge up without it being powered on. Continue to experiment and it will more than likely improve over time.
[Captivate General] Kaik541:
I'm not quite sure why you're mentioned super LCD. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Nexus One has an AMOLED screen. We have Super AMOLED screens on the Captivate. Of the COLORS, yes red drains battery the least (it's also the one that affects your night vision the least, bonus trivia). But black drains even less, since, with SAMOLED, it just means the pixels are "off"

If you want to save battery life, make your background all black and hit the sleep button every time you set your phone down.
[Captivate General] ConceptVBS:
Disable GPS off you dont need it.

Turn off Wifi off you dont need it.

Turn the auto brightness adjust off. Control it manually.

Keep track of running background programs.

Dont use live wall paper or bright colored backgrounds. just use the plain black.
[Captivate General] mesasone:
Also, know that you can swipe the notification bar left/right to adjust your brightness. Very handy!
[Captivate General] lost2030:
Just flash your phone to the JH2 firmware!! I used to get 9 to 10 hours max out of this battery, now it lasts so much longer with a good amount of use. Last night it went almost 17 hours before I charged it and it still had like 3% left.
[Captivate General] lost2030:
The JH2 firmware makes your screen consume less battery because the auto adjust brightness is lower than before.
[Captivate General] ranova:
turn the wifi sleep policy to NEVER

wifi uses A LOT less power than 3G
[Captivate General] PizzaAmerican23:
Sorry meant to write super AMOLED. I have been using a all black background and put the brightness all the way down. I would just like to have the red pixel option. I would like to switch to that to squeeze out more battery like in times when i really could care less how my display looks. And having a black background wont matter when im pulling up stuff that has colors in it and you cant see the background. im probably being nuts and for 90% of people this is going overboard, but id like to at least have the option.

Really? I've had my current captivate (returned the first) for about 4 days now and i never let it go past like 20%. Should i be doing this? and how long do i have to do it for?

I love you, this is friggin awesome.

I've been on JH2, im thinkin about giving bugless beast a try.

So no chance of having this feature on the captivate? (the red pixels)

and also just to make sure the pixels are "off" i just made an all black background in paint. Is there a big difference if i switch to one of the stock wallpapers that is mostly black? Or is all black a lot better?
[Captivate General] larryccf:
in case anyone wants it, this is a wallpaper i've been using, i borrowed from someone on the MT3G forum almost a year ago, he put it up for others for this very reason - power savings with some visual whatever you want to call it
[Captivate General] Bjd223:
You only need to let the battery run down to zero once (maybe twice) to help calibrate the battery sensor (some people do not even believe it needs to be done once). Anyway, if you do it to much then it could lessen the lifespan of your battery because long charges heat the battery more, and heat powns the **** outta li-ion batterys.
[Captivate General] PizzaAmerican23:
got a question about that background and others like it.. I know black is supposed to use none, and red uses less, but wouldn't total black use MUCH less power than a shade lighter?

For example: a screen that is completely black is almost the same as the phone screen being off, as opposed to a slightly lighter screen which every pixel is turned on.

Right now my home screen has no icons on it and i have a completely black background. Am i going overboard? lol
[Captivate General] sdimezq8:
Lithium Ion batteries will degrade much faster when deep discharged. Its a non reversable chemical reaction. That being said; the more often you charge and the less you let the battery drain down the better battery life you will have in the future.
[Captivate General] PizzaAmerican23:
um i been running pandora with the screen on and the brightness all the way up for about 5 hours in an effort to run my battery to zero (once)

should i stop now? im at 7%
[Captivate General] Made2Last:
I have let mine run down to 0% about 3 times. It always says I have over 20% after plugging it in for very little time. Kinda annoying.
[Captivate General] NikAmi:
Whenever I get a new device, or replace a battery, I always do at least 3 to 5 full power cycles to set the gague and burn in the battery. After that, it is best if you can keep it above 20%, but with smartphones and their owners being what they are these days, that can be next to impossible. Just do the initial drain and charge a couple times and then keep it charged when you can and try not to worry too much about the battery life. Most likely, you'll still have 80% when it's time to switch phones. Or you can buy a replacement fairly cheap. Heck, Samsung is directly selling a replacement batter with a desk charger for about $50. I'm sure you could find a cheaper battery by itself somewhere.
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
Good.i always thought the main reason I was getting poor battery life was because the galaxy auto brightness setting was way too high.
[Captivate General] iamamp3pimp:
yes you are.

Enjoy your phone man. I can get a full day out of it and then some, and im using the Galaxy live wallpaper with Icons everywhere
[Captivate General] PizzaAmerican23:
haha yea i had a feeling, id still like to know though. Ive toned down the insanity a bit, but in times when i really need to squeeze every bit out of the battery id like to know.

Also, ive found that when i lower the brightness to the lowest setting it somehow creeps back up a bit. Is there a way to disable the swipe feature to control brightness? i think i must be changing the brightness when i pull the bar down or something.
[Captivate General] E_man5112:
.

Wifi saves your battery over 3G, plus saves your data plan

Wouldn;t that mean to get any function from your phone, you have to go to a different screen? Might as well take function, over a probably minor gain in battery life.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] marixsmith:
The evo4g uses a slightly modified keyboard optimized for the giant screen that it has. Since the hd2 has a similarly giant screen and lacks the trackpad/ball the addition of those arrow keys from the evo keyboard would be quite welcome.

Anybody know where to find the evo's keyboard? also is it sense specific or can it be added to a generic froyo build?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thunerclaps:
Go to the Evo forum and see if you can get an apk packaged to install rather than messing with your system files. It is Sense specific by default: Froyo uses a different default keyboard. I was able to get Swype which shipped with the Evo to install on my darkstone Android build.

I spent a while hunting for this last night. Found a bunch of Evo keyboard apks, most of which refused to install & many of which needed to be flashed as an update zip - which I don't believe we can do currently. I tried overwriting the htc_ime.apk & .obex in system/apps & managed to get a garbled version with arrows working - attempts to fix it borked my HTC keyboard entirely.

Found a worthwhile solution though - the Jonas HTC keyboard mod lets you use the volume buttons as arrow keys.

I'm sure there are more Dutch owners with a P3700 in this forum. For a week I have this great phone after using Topaz and Leo, both (to my opinion to big phones), that's why I sell those and bought myself this litte phone.

I tried several ROM's, also the 6.5.1 and 6.5.5 series, but I don't like the start button down. What I'm looking for is the best ROM, also in Dutch (which are less on this forum, I think 2 or 3), with latest XIP and SYS and fully tweaked to have best batterylife and most free RAM.

For now I have this ROM, which in my opinion is really fast and stable!

Can the Dutch people tell me which ROM they are using? Or can anybody tell me in (sorry for the Dutch) Jip en Janneke taal, explain me how to cook and add the newest drivers??? F.e. this ROM is great when all the extra tweaks are added and the latest drivers/updates/XIP/SYS are included!
