[Desire General] the_angry_monkey:
Hi, I have just taken the plunge and installed the following Froyo ROM on my Desire [ROM] Rooted Official HTC Android 2.2 (FroYo) ROM [Market issue fixed]. My original phone came with Virgin shortcuts etc but was sold on T-Mobile. I unlocked and rooted before installing the ROM. Now every time I boot the phone I get a "sim card changed" message. If I click to cancel the message then the process which it starts (APN selection?) crashes. After this however it seems to work fine. I do notice though that my HSDPA connection is available in less places now. Any ideas?

Cheers

Alex

Just wondering what you thought you would get back from them? a net based CX advisor will have no info to give you, if they did it would have been public already.

You just bashed someone for not having the answer when if you would have thought it through you would have realised a CX advisor wouldnt have had the info you were asking for!

Everyone needs to earn a living and you just kicked off at someone who is there to help and tried there best to do it.

Not Cool

I think you need to learn to type and most likely speak proper English words. Your entire post is an insult to the human intelligence. If you think whining about it will make things go quicker then you need to look outside of your box.
[XPERIA X10 General] irispen:
I think, that thing is a bot.
[XPERIA X10 General] phoneguy 4567:
This type of response is typical of every company in the cell phone market. As a former Nexus One owner Google itself is far worse, they don't even like giving you time frames unless "soon" counts. I don't understand why some think SE is somehow worse then the rest.
[XPERIA X10 General] irispen:
Just look what i got:

John Peralta: what i am talking about is the one finger zoom feauture of x10 mini, and i am wondering if it will be implemented on x10

John Peralta: is there other agent that i can talk to?

Agent Patricia: I understand your question. I am telling you that this is something that will work on the Android platform, the X10, X10 mini and X10 mini pro run the Android platform.

Agent Patricia: If this on hand zoom is being implemented for Android it will work on the 3 of them.

Agent Patricia: This is also a sample project.

John Peralta: x10 has no one finger zoom.. it just have an on screen button of -/+ for zooming, while x10 mini got an feature of one finger zoom, where you can zoom pictures by sliding up and down on your finger in the screen.

Agent Patricia: Have you used the one hand zoom on the X10 mini?

John Peralta: yes, i have used the one finger zoom on x10 mini pro.. i have both x10 and x10 mini pro..

John Peralta: one more thing, in my x10 mini pro, the flash of the camera can be set to auto, while in x10 you cant set it in auto mode, you just need to turn the led light on and off.... will SE implement the auto flash in x10?

Agent Patricia: No.

John Peralta: ok.

Agent Patricia: At the moment we do not have any information about the X10 getting the one hand zoom.

Agent Patricia: You may check for more information on the link you sent me.

SO.. No auto flash? or she just cant understand me?
[XPERIA X10 General] jimlimb95:
All that we all want is flash lol :)
[XPERIA X10 General] robbyf66:
I heard today that they will update to 2.1 and then possibly skip 2.2 to 3. 0 in q1

Source is fair but an rumour because nothing is set in stone
[XPERIA X10 General] forzanerazzurri:
I almost feel sorry for Sony Ericsson having to field questions from people like the OP who cannot spell or construct a proper sentence to save their lives. Horrible and embarrassing. If you want people to take you seriously in this world, learn how to communicate.
[XPERIA X10 General] rynoon:
You of course realize that this agent has no inside information she could give us and is probably answering based off of a script. You're not going to get any new information from it. Best to just ask the question so they know there's a demand for an update and then to stop pestering.
[XPERIA X10 General] vickysud:
@forzanerazzurri

just look around ok..der r many ppl who r frustrated by not getting 2.1 update by now..just go on look at SE blog itself..r u blind to c da frustration of countless ppl commented over 1000+ comments..its non of ur business okay every person has its own view..even i have a x10 but i dont like 1.6 on it i need a newer one so tht i CAN INSTAL DA APP WHICH R NOT WORKING ON IT RIGHT NOW..if u dont care THAN SHUT UR MOUTH OK
[XPERIA X10 General] forzanerazzurri:
If the X10 2.1 upgrade being slow is the biggest problem in your life right now, then you really need to get out more. I envy you if this is the biggest thing you have to worry about. You need to put things in perspective and chill out.
[XPERIA X10 General] realunited123:
Dude try to write complete words here. You are not texting here so try to write complete words..Other than that all will probably get 2.1 in Q3. If one market gets it we will have it next day. :)(if the flashing tools and SEUS still works that way).
[XPERIA X10 General] drsqueggy:
That would be great!! Its a shame its taking so long for them to update to 2.1, for me they could easily redeem themselves by chucking us gingerbread early next year!
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
Everyone needs to simmer down, SE has said that were getting 2.1, you knew that when you bought the phone. Just wait for progress with the bootloader, and stop *****ing like 6th grade girls...
[XPERIA X10 General] gavriel18:
For all the whining over an update has anyone stopped to think?

1. We are a small minority of x10 users. Most (including 4 of my friends) are happy with se's ui and 1.6.

2. How much effort it takes to build a customized os?

In other words stop whining.

If u want vanilla android crack the bootloader and install it yourself. Se wont release it.

I work in Chat Support and I'll tell you... it's not fun. Lots of ignorant people get awefully tough behind their keyboards!!!
[XPERIA X10 General] xmarkx88:
Is there any way to place an IQ restriction of 75 and over to join these forums so that we can get rid of the OP. Either that or like a fifth grade education rule.

I am actually glad that the OP can't complete sentences because being the jerk that he was, he might have actually given the SE support lady a rough time. Luckily, she was probably laughing at how ignorant the OP sounds.

Please, if you wish to get any respect in this world, learn to speak properly and treat other respectfully.

Sorry, this is my first post, but I was so offended by what a *** the OP was that I had to say something. I'm glad others did as well.
[XPERIA X10 General] Findee:
OP, you are a disgrace to humans everywhere.

You may think you're cool for don't that but your not.
[XPERIA X10 General] rvictorg:
So no auto-flash for the X10 despite the fact it's on the Mini's?? Seriously any idea why can't this be implemented?
[XPERIA X10 General] mania02:

[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
Check out Vignette on the market. It has much smarter LED control (almost flash-like... only turns the light on when you half-press to focus). It seems to be an all-around better camera app that SE's, and the developers are actively trying to make it better with regular updates where they've mentioned trying to improve the flash on the X10.

As for the OP... you are indeed a disgrace.

Those who came in and ask nicely we do our best to provide infromation we have and even go find out more detail for them as their "Thanks" worth all the hard work. Person who bark will get their demand only because we want them to leave asap but not the service and repect.
[XPERIA X10 General] rvictorg:
cool thanks, I'll check it out for sure. The "photo light" is so useless and just blinds people, hope they can fix it and if not sounds like Vignette will work better anyways :S oh SE

[XPERIA X10 General] wing_zero8556:
OP, seriously learn how to spell, because that is just epic fail. I understand people are frustrated with SE taking a while to release 2.1 but cmon it's their first android handset and it takes time to learn to implement their UXP skin on top of android. HTC have had android handsets for way longer so they'd obviously be able to push out their updates a lot quicker.

I dont really mind waiting for 2.1, my phone works, not the very best at all times, but the bottom line is, it works :D

hey mates,

i'm currently using a stock 1.48 rom with wm6.5 included. it runs 1921-manila with gtx theme.

to make my hole phone gtx-like, i need of course a wm skin.

there are some out there and they are pretty well, but non of them is really the best for me.

i have one, which i really like, but the scrolling bars are very ugly. i have got another one with nice scrolling bars.

my question is how to "copy" the scrolling bars of theme 1 into theme 2 or just how can i modify a wm6.5 theme?

thanks in advance,

Hi fellas,

I have a good amount of musics, and they are all equipped with albumart.

When I open gallery / gallery 3D, all those unnecessary folders with albumart on each of it showed up. How do I remove or hide these albumart/folder from gallery ?

I wanted gallery to only show my pictures... not albumarts...

Please, any help would be appreciated..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Have you tried putting a nomedia file in the folders that you don't want to show images in the gallery? I've attached the file in a rar, try downloading it and placing one in each folder that you don't want to show it's image content in the gallery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
how did you get those files? these are amazing! did you made it? :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
you just create a blank file called .nomedia, also try nomedia from the market, it lets you create and manage your .nomedia files :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matcol:
Rename your folder with the album art....

You just need to rename the folder with the album art and precede it with a .

eg:

.albumart

By default the OS ignores anything with a . in front as it uses these for system files, your picture/media viewer will ignore any folders with a . in front

Hope it works....

I've just downloaded nomedia as my Gallery app was loading every image on my phone. I've run it and selected the folders I don't want to see in Gallery. I can see a new .nomedia file appear in the chosen folders but still Gallery shows them.

Please help as per the other users this has been bugging me for ages.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
can anybody else help?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
when I try to rename the folder with . from windows, it always show error message:

"you must type a file name"

How do you rename it ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Run "cmd" and go to the directory which contains the folders you want to rename ( "cd .." to go back one dir. and cd "example" to go to a further directory from the dir you are). Then, for example, type "ren abcd .abcd".

I hope the instructions are clear :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
for the 2nd time, download nomedia manager off the market, its an app that will let you create and manage your .nomedia files lol

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcq1010:
AndroHero ----

Well.. I agree.. nomedia seems to work great... too great in fact...

I found this thread while "searching for a way to keep album art from showing in the picture/movie Gallery" (the basic Gallery app built into my Samsung Fascinate).

So, I tried nomedia... re-scanned Media Card... well.. it worked, only folders with pictures I want show up.

HOWEVER.. I assume no

media

truly means no media at all will show up in any media application.. ie: Now, when I launch Music Player... it too is obeying the nomedia file, and all of my Music mp3s are no longer visible at all (only the ones in the ringtones folder, which I currently do not have a .nomedia file in).

Is there any way to get rid of album art from the photo Gallery.. AND maintain access to the mp3's and the Album art via the Music Player app?

Thanks in advance for any assistance or knowledge anyone has on this subject.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
after i copy music to my sd card, and it shows up with the album art, i then just delete the album art from the album folders, it dosent remove it from the music player :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tasriri:
Can try 'gallery enabler' from the market. Its very easy to use, just tick the folder that you want to be shown in the gallery
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcq1010:
After a bit more digging, I realized that the Art that was showing up in the Gallery were some files named .....AlbumArt....small/large.jpg.. In other words.. I had all the "folder.jpg" files.. AND other files not named "folder.jpg" .. it was the 2nd group of files that was showing up in the Gallery. Thus, I mounted my SDCard from PC... searched for all "*AlbumArt*jpg" files, and deleted them... allowing only the "folder.jpg" files to remain.

This now allows Media player to see the folder.jpg files for album art... while keeping the "other" file's from showing up in the photo/movie Gallery.

In hindsight, this is pretty obvious.. but, when I was posting above, I didn't realize that I had both sets of "folder.jpg" and "other files".. ..

Obviously, I disabled the ".nomedia" for "My Music" folder, allowing it to be scanned, ... and allowing the Gallery to ignore the "folder.jpg" files.

Thanks to all for your responses....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
the album art should be included in the id3 tags anyway :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tasriri:
Did anybody try 'gallery enabler'? Its fairly simple, just tick the folder you want the gallery to show. For example just tick 'DCIM' the camera gallery and untick the rest of the folder in SDCARD. Restart the phone amd you will see the result. If you decided to delete that folder from gallery, just untick.. the result will appear straight away.. no restart required

Turn it on, wait for it to 'boot up' and then run the RUU your ROM came with...be it Vodafone or WWE

If that doesn't work cause you can't select HTC Sync yu may have to try and find the official ZIP file for your handset and try running that...

And so all our premiums go up.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Indeed - it's this sort of thing that really annoys me.

Insurance "works" because most of the people who pay their premiums don't claim. When you get people like the OP, who take out insurance after the fact because they need to claim, it just makes it so much more expensive for those of us who aren't perpetrating insurance fraud!

Yes, I don't know what's thicker. Standing on your phone, claiming insurance within such a short period of taking it out (you'll be on a watchlist), or writing about it on here.

After installing the Froyo leak I moved some of the 'bloatware' files into a separate file rather than deleting them. Included in the moved files were the two FriendStream files (apk and odex) as well as the two FriendStream Widget Files (com.htc.FriendStreamWidget apk and odex). I have since decided that I would prefer the FriendStream Widget over the stock Facebook widget and thus moved all four files back into the /system/app folder. 'ls' in adb shell verifies that the files are there and I can open the FriendStream app, but the Widget is not listed and thus cannot be added to a home screen. Any thoughts on how to get the Widget to show up in my add Widget list or otherwise get it on my Home Screen?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] fastfro:
We got all these fancy ways of removing all these stock apps that att puts on your phone. How about a list of links for the stock apps apks.

See im at work and want to take my phone back for exchange since its cutting off randomly. Im not near a computer but i work near att. My house is about 30 mins away so its innconvient to drive home and back to do a restore and go to att. So i figure a list would be nice for others who get in this situation. Thanks
[Captivate Themes and Apps] belyle:
I think your best bet would be to do a stock image flash using the instructions in the development branch of the captivate forum. Look there for the ODIN one-click, and make sure you use the JF6 firmware. This will restore your phone to stock/factory, including all missing apps, sounds, animations, unroot etc.
