[General Questions and Answers] brandonsmooth:
my little sister dropped my hero in the pool. i believe she got it out right away and its been drying in the sun for a couple hours now. any ideas or advice on what i should do or when i can use it? ive heard of phone being dropped in the toilet and in bonfires and still working so i really hope this one still works... please help!
[General Questions and Answers] Colj:
Let it sit in a dry place for about 24 hours just to be safe. The only real danger to the phone is if you try and turn it on while it's still wet on the inside. Good luck.
[General Questions and Answers] brandonsmooth:
yea i realize i just need to be patient. Thanks for helping
[General Questions and Answers] Mr. Clown:
Recommendation (happened to me 3 times) take out the battery inmediately, after you got it form any liquid. Put your phone in a bottle of rice (not cooked, the pure grain) so it can dry.

Good Luck,

does anyone know if there is a way to make it so that when you rotate to landscape with the keyboard the text box doesnt appear and cover up the page you are on? it doesnt have that in portrait. if you dont know what im talking about this part:

so yeah is there a way to get rid of that part?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Corey@rabbit:
Possible solution is to find out what image that is, then make it almost completely transparent. However this will mess with that box anywhere it might pop up...

So I am having issues with the way Gallery sets wallpapers.

Even though I have a high resolution photo, it insists on cropping the photo and somehow scaling it without zooming. So I end up with a really terrible zoomed in portion of my original picture. I would prefer to just dump my wallpaper in the touchwiz or launcher pro wallpaper chooser.

Thoughts?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Main Target:
Up, any ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inku:
they are inside TwWallpaperChooser.apk and about setting up wallpapers is best if u use the correct res 960x800 that way it won't crop it or scale it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsmith8858:
When setting the wallpaper, you can grab the crop border and "pull it out" to fit the entire image so it won't be cropped.

I have done this but it still looks terrible even though the picture looks great on the computer
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Main Target:
Hmm being new to android your statement about it being inside an APK confuses me. I thought APK's were containers to be installed on the phone. Do you have any insight on how to add/remove files from an APK? As far as the proper resolution, it continues to scale the picture from the size presnted on the screen will degraded quality.

Another question, in the android theming forum, Alot of themes are labled CM5/6, does this mean they can only be used with phones with CM? or just optimized?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sifulee:
I'm having this same problem. Anyone figure out a way add pictures to the twWallpaper chooser?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjester:
I take no responsibility if you brick your phone doing this. Modifying system files is always done at your own risk.

To modify an .apk (in this case TwWallpaperChooser.apk):

step 0: Make a backup!!!

then get out of adbshell

(that's right, 2 "exit"s, one to exit root, one to exit the shell)

1) pull the file from your phone to your computer:

2) Open the archive

a) If in linux just use archive manager

b) In Windows it might be easier to change the extension from .apk to .zip first

3) Add the files you want. Wallpapers go in the apk here: /res/drawable-hdpi/

3b)If you changed the extension to .zip change it back to .apk

4) Push the files back to your phone. Theoretically this command should work:

but adb (for me anyway) doesn't like pushing files into /system, so you might have to do this instead:

push the file to the sd card:

Then use root explorer to move the file to /system/app or use adb:

5) reboot

Ta-da!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob989_69:
Tried the method above except I used Root Explorer to move around the file. Everything is fine except none of the wallpapers I added show up. I tried ADB but I get a Cross-Device link error when I try to move it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751182 will help you with all of this. I am using it with my Captivate, I can sideload apps, get off AT&T Market apps, it got rid of their bloatware. Most of the bugs that it had with the stock ROM and bloatware are gone, very snappy now, GPS, for me is working fine, my battery life has increased drastically since flashing with this. Hope this helps. Are you sure your rooted? Do you have Super user permisions and Titanium Backup? If you don't then you aren't rooted but this Unleash the Beast ROM/Tool will root it for you too!
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
Sorry but I forgot, you can find ROM Manager on the market get it and make a back up of your current ROM just incase you need to flash back to it for any reason, it's easier than using Odin. This will also give you ClockworkMod Recovery.

This is a tutorial on how to add custom locations to the Sense Weather app!

Step by step, pretty easy:

1. Download SQLite Database Browser (works with all OS')

2. Pull the following file off your phone (easiest way is using adb): /data/data/com.htc.provider.weather/files/WP_0409WWE.db

3. Open the db file in SQLite Browser.

4. Click on the "Browse Data" tab.

5. Next to "Table:" choose "locationlist"

6. Click on "New Record" on the top right, it should automatically create a blank one at the end of the list.

7. Double-click on the empty box under "code" and enter text in this format: NAM|US|<state>|<city> So, for example, NAM|US|NY|NEW YORK CITY (no spaces or line breaks after the block of text (you can have spaces in the city name))

8. Under "name", put the desired city name, such as "New York City" without any spaces or line breaks after the block of text.

9. Under "state", put the state name, such as "NY" in the same format as "name"

10. Under "timezone", put either 300, 360, 420, or 480 in, depending on what your timezone is:

Eastern time - 300

Central time - 360

Mountain time - 420

Pacific time - 480

11. Under "timezoneld", put either "America/New_York", "America/Chicago", "America/Denver", or "America/Los_Angeles" in, again, depending on the timezone you live in:

Eastern time - America/New_York

Central time - America/Chicago

Mountain time - America/Denver

Pacific time - America/Los_Angeles

That's it! Save it, push it back to /data/data/com.htc.provider.weather/files then reboot and you should be able to search for your town!

Special thanks to the guys who figured this out first (I don't remember your names, but thank you! :P)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dhalem:
Nicely done. But I needed more. So I wrote a script that pulled the entire AccuWeather.com list of US cities and then pushed it into the db(about 40k). It does seem to make searching for cities a bit slower, but it now has everything in the US.

By the way, I'm not sure if the timezone data matters much, so for now I just made everything Los Angeles.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] UndergroundWire:
How much slower will this data be. Is it noticeable?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Berzerker7:
It does matter, my auto-time is defaulting to GMT -7 (Los Angeles)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dhalem:
Interesting. In the weather app or elsewhere? I'll have to make the script smarter then.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] spaceman4:
Thanks for this I've been looking for this forever. Now I just need to figure out how to stop the weather app from always geolocating.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jellis24:
I'm in the EST timezone and my calender events were off by 3 hours after changing the database file.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Berzerker7:
It forces GMT -7 when setting the date/time to "automatic." But even if I set it to manual and use the correct timezone, the clock/weather widget always uses the GMT -7 timezone.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] UndergroundWire:
Not to sound ungrateful to dhalem, but what is the point of loading all the cities for the average user?

It is much easier to follow the first post and add what is missing for you. For example, I added my work and home because it always defaulted to "Current Location".

I only say this because the difference in file size is a big jump.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dhalem:
Because to me, adding them one at a time is a pain. And the database they ship is so sparse that it's unlikely to have what you want.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] UndergroundWire:
I think you are misunderstanding me. What I mean is every user just adds what is missing. I was missing my work location and home location. They were showing up as "Current Location" rather than my city. I only had to add two instead of every US City.

The directions were straight forward. It was very easy to add the two that I needed.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sd_042:
Possibly silly question...

Hello,

I am having issues with rom cooked with 24622 sys.

The rooms, boots perfectly and everything works good, till i import my contacts.

after that, if you call and dc, the dialer lags for like 5-10 sec.

Also sometimes, the network gets dc automatically if i try to dial.

the taskbar will show an exclamation icon and after few sec network will come back up.

also i would not receive calls, even though the device shows full bar coverage.

The strange part is I am facing this issues with only 24** series sys.

I cook 23569, 23676.. all work fine.

keeping everything same just changing the sys to 24**.. the roms gives this problem.

Device: Touch HD

On your SD card, you should see a folder called 'media'. Inside that one will be one called 'audio'. Inside that one, create one called 'ringtones' and stick them there.
