Oh yeah, sorry.. missed that post. Widget Locker is awesome.

another good one is Quickdesk BETA. it's free for now. a quick double tap of the home button brings up a semi transparent Homescreen or "desk" that you can add widgets to. then just press back and it slides away, and you are back to whatever you where doing before.

look up Quickdesk BETA on Appbrain.

and yes, they both (Widgetlocker and Quickdesk BETA) work nicely with eachother.

No more scaling issue....

I can only assume this is due to my updating to the latest cyan nightly. Now there are no abnormalities with regards to density setting of 200 and screen sizing issues. All programs seam to be scaling properly now. This is awesome...

I was busy trying out some new roms on my desire so i went to recovery and did full wipe and then tried to reboot the phone does not boot up now it gets the htc screen then i get the nexus cross screen then nothing just keeps on the nexus cross screen. I tried to do a recovery but no luck only had basic options. i fear i have put some of the back up aps or something onto the sd card and then when i did the wipe it deleted all the backup data and stuff im at a complete loss here.

i was running defrost rom.

when i plug the phone inot the comp it makes the noice to recognise it but then just shows up as removable disk and i cant enter that because it asks me for a disk or something

any help would be hugely appreciated im sat here about to scream hah
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donald-c:
Sounds just like a bootloop, happens quite a lot if you flash incompatible themes etc :p

Just flash the ROM again and it should work, maybe another ROM if you have one on your SD card?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lee815:
go to recovery then partitions menu then mount /sdcard then connect your phone to your pc should give you access to the sd card so you can place another rom on there & start afresh

I was updating my Nexus One and it gave me an error that looked like an Android being taken out of a box it was at this screen for atleast 30 mins before I decided to pull the battery and restart. Tried to turn on and it wouldn't do anything at all. I've tried charging it,pulling battery out overnight, soft and hard resets nothing at all no signs of life. Any other methods I can try or is it a brick?
[Nexus One General] evilkorn:
Can you boot into fastboot or recovery?

Were you trying to flash a recovery.img?
[Nexus One General] sty3x:
None can't do anything no boot no nothing
[Nexus One General] kamasi36:
I believe it was in the process of flashing the radio maybe, if you pulled the battery during this process then I think your N1 is done.
[Nexus One General] sty3x:
I think the last thing I saw was writing radio.img then it gave me an error that looked like a box with an Android coming out with a arrow pointing to the Android
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
I don't think that was an error icon. It was showing you it was installing something. Taking out of the box onto your android phone. But it shouldn't have taken that long...
[Nexus One General] greenstuffs:
did you flash the wrong radio?
[Nexus One General] kamasi36:
Yeah that explains it. Sometimes it takes awhile when updating. It wasn't an error it was going through the process of flashing the radio. It is water under the bridge now, but in the future never pull the battery while it is flashing the radio. Almost certain that you will brick your phone if you do.

Hello all. Is it possible to pair the Apple Wireless Keyboard with a rooted EVO? Of course, a ROM supporting HID would be necessary (CM6?). I would love to use my EVO to take notes in class. I know that there are keyboards such as the Freedom Pro, but I already own an Apple Wireless and would rather not buy another keyboard if at all possible.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
I don't see why not. The Ctrl key won't work, and neither will the Apple-specific keys (Option/AppleKey/Whateveryouwanttocallit).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
Great to hear. Every time I've attempted to root I've come across various annoying errors (mostly "Main Version Is Older") so I gave up for a while. Hearing that the Apple Keyboard works gives me the motivation to try rooting again.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soxozor:
This is exactly what I am thinking of doing. Especially with the kickstand of evo and the larger screen I would be able to take notes in class with a portable keyboard instead of an iPad or a laptop. The quesiton is, does it truly work or will I have issues...

I do have CM6 and apparently HID is enabled so I am hoping nothing goes wrong. I will report back.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
Holy ****, I am in love. Got my phone rooted (with CM6) and am currently typing this on my Apple Keyboard.

I am nerdgasming everywhere right now.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soxozor:
Please go in details on what works and what doesn't. Perhaps a video?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
I haven't had the time to fully test it, but it works for the most part. You have to get used to the idea of the keys working as if it were a physical version of the on-screen keyboard (things such as pressing shift twice goes to caps lock). One annoying thing is that option-delete won't just backspace through the previous word, but instead will delete the entire row of text. Obviously, all mac-specific keys don't do anything.

Lastly, the arrow keys are mapped differently than you'd think. I think it's "up" to scroll backwards through text in one line (changing cursor character by character), "down" to scroll forward through text in a line, "left" to scroll to the next line of text, and "right" to scroll to the previous line. Bit confusing tbh.

Right now it's very usable, but it'd be really great if someone could find a way to change the keymappings for the little nuisances.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
Does that change depending on what your screen orientation is?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
Good call. You're right, the arrow keys work correctly when the orientation is in portrait mode. Unfortunately, the kickstand makes it so much more convenient to keep it in landscape.

Any devs think it could be possible to whip up an app to fix this? :)

0000 as the password?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
Type a passcode on your EVO, then type that (followed by Enter/Return) on your bluetooth keyboard. It took me a couple attempts, but I got it to work using either 1234 or 0000 (I forget which).

I took notes in my math class today, using VerbTeX (a LaTeX for Android application). It worked really, really well for the most part, except for an annoying bug I noticed: everything seemed to map correctly except for the less-than and greater-than signs (that is, SHIFT-, and SHIFT-.) The keyboard types ";" for shift-"," and ":" for shift-".". Frustrating...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tickitata:
Anybody else having these issues? (incorrect mappings for the < and > keys, and the arrow keys in landscape mode)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mfrankl6:
For those unsure of how to connect mac bluetooth keyboard to EVO. Its similar to actual set on the mac. You have to key the passcode in on your EVO 0000 or 1234 then initiate the same sequence on the keyboard itself and press enter. It will then confirm you are connected to a HID device. I'm using CM7 wish I had a mouse pointer right now.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elusivepeanut:
Anyone know what the frame rates are for the various video quality settings for CyanogenMod-6.0.0.0-N1

High (30m) - 720p - MPEG4

Low (30m) QCIF - H263 (I'm guessing 480P?)

MMS (Low, 30s)

YouTube (High, 15m)

Custom
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightnz:
720p is up to 27fps, 480p is up to 30fps.

Framerates are variable, if you wanted to check you can play the video in VLC or another more "advanced" player or video tool and bring up info to see what the fps is.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
AFAIK, framerates are dependent on the ambient light conditions. The brighter the better. I've captured low-light videos @11fps... but in broad daylight, I have video recorded @26fps...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elusivepeanut:
You guys rock. Thanks a bunch.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveid:
Yeah, unfortunately frame rate and bit-rate are both variables, so the only constant is the resolution. Meaning that editing and re-compression/conversion are going to be a ***** to say the least. I really wish they would make the bit-rate be the only variable and leave the frame rate as a constant, but it is only a phone after all..
[HD2 General] moisha:
So last night I decided to protect my HD2 with the password as many other naive souls apparently did and got burnt with (I learned this the hard way too :-). So i went to settings, security, phone lock, check marked "Prompt if phone unused for", left all other fields at their defaults - 0 minutes, simple PIN, entered my four digits, re-entered it. turned device off, on - nice password sceen .... and f&&^%&^% .... I can't unlock it:confused: WTF it does not accept my PIN ? I was outrgaged.

Of course my last backup was done 3 month ago and hard reset would quite some ammount of data loss. I spent 4 hours today reading and poking around and finaly I made the damn thing to accept my PIN !

Here is what I did:

1. downloaded ceregeditor, connect, run as administrator

2. changed from 1 to 0 the key HKLM/software/microsoft/shell/lockscreen , mentioned in this thread

3. softreset and voila - the thing still prompts for the password, but this time it DOES accept my PIN !

I am running stock T-Mobile ROM 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE which was doing the job OK for me ... until now :-)
[HD2 General] tazprime:
moisha, have you had any further lock out and pin not being accepted?

I am a bit confused, as when the phone remains locked then how will the ceregeditor be able to access the hd2 and allow one to edit the registry?
[HD2 General] oz_dart:
NOT SOLVED: HD2 "forgets" the screenlock PIN

Actually, I tried what was posted and, as anticipated, ActiveSync prevented CERegEditor from connecting to the HD2. Unless there is some way to circumvent the password lock blocking ActiveSync, I can't see how this can work.
[HD2 General] smeddy:
Yes if this worked, it could have saved me a LOT of time and hassle a month or two ago. for what it's worth most problems on this seemed caused by Swype or CHT 1.8 (not sure on 2.0). But again I can't see how CEEditor could have access to the Reg without gettingthrough the PIN first.

If that did work tho, great! I got so peeved off last time this happened that I went straight over to Android and haven't returned yet!
[HD2 General] oz_dart:
Yep, I'm about to do what I was trying to avoid....the dreaded HARD RESET! Curse all those who contributed to this bug. Anyway, if I don't soon find some way to access the files on-board the HD2 device, via an alternate to WMDC (ActiveSync), I'm biting the bullet in 1/2 an hour. I've exhausted all my Google search patience...and still no solution found.
[HD2 General] pckshd:
Why don't you try PocketShield or S2U2?
[Droid 2 Android Development] ljbaumer:
hey I was wondering if it would be possible to make metamorph themes the droid 2 (rooted).

Also if it is possible we could just port some popular themes using the theme porter http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=768194 and just use the system dump of the droid 2 as the rom? (or would that not work at all?)

thanks,

ljbaumer
[Droid 2 Android Development] tgwaste:
its possible to use metamorph themes on the droid 2. ive successfully done it.

you have to remount the drive as as R/W first:

adb shell

su

mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

then apply your theme.

i would highly recommend making a backup first as there are still a few issues. use at your own risk. :)

Does anyone know how to turn on a post capture review? When you take a picture or video now it automatically goes into the gallery. It is handy to be able to review, delete, or share the picture immediately after taking.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One General] evilkorn:
Take the picture, don't like it, click small thumbnail of previous picture, press delete, confirm.
[Nexus One General] elusivepeanut:
Thanks, I appreciate that. The only thing is that when you click on the icon you experience delay.

Before you could review the full screen size picture, delete, share, or save instantly. Now it takes 4 seconds.
[Nexus One General] SeEsAw12:
Holy crap.

4 seconds?!!??!

That's amazing.
[Nexus One General] maRioHD:
You don't have to be sarcastic, its perfectly reasonable idea. When you think about people's first instinct is to review the picture they just took, but I do admit its not going to kill someone to wait 5 seconds.
[Nexus One General] DBBGBA:
It's just annoying since it used to be faster. Plus a camera needs to be fast or else it's useless 'cause maybe in those 10 seconds of reviewing you missed another shot.

My nexus one takes 10sec to show me the preview of the latest shot in high quality.

I'm not saying I'm expecting my phone to replace my camera, but you know the best camera is the one that's with you ;)
[Nexus One General] SBS_:
I like it better without the preview, now it takes pictures at a much faster rate without having to wait for the preview to end.

It should probably be an option somewhere though

loaded the leaked froyo in rom form, but ever since then i can't get a pinpoint gps connection. i always get either the big blue circle or "searching for gps" when in navigator. i have since reverted back to 2.1, confirmed gps works. checked with a few other friends, not experiencing the issue. loaded froyo rom again, no restore of settings or user files, same issue existed. what would cause this? anyone else experience this? how can i fix it?

thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] two_cents:
since you installed via a rom did you update your radio from 1.00? if you dont have atleast a 2.05 radio... but you should really have teh 2.15 radio alot of stuff wont work properly
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patches152:
that's prolly what it was. it totally slipped my mind! i'll try that and see if it helps. thanks...

btw, can i just use a restore and update the radio with that already restored file? what's the best practice for doing something like this?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] two_cents:
do you have unrevoked:forever? with s_off? you can't just flash a radio without it... you need to do that and search for the 2.15 radio file then flash it via Hboot... as a PB31IMG.zip file... dont be too hasty read the instructions and go slow and you should be fine
[General Questions and Answers] mental2k:
Hi guys,

It's been a while since I've been on here, but I've always had good responses in the past, so I'm hoping for the same again. I have an IPAQ114 PDA, as the title suggests, and I'm a little unsure about it's current state. I havent used the device for a couple of months, pretty much since I got my iPhone, and I'm guessing it has been completely discharged in this time.

I want to use the device again for a couple of little projects. I've heard horror stories about deep discharged batteries (mine probably is). Does anyone know if there is any special method required to get this device working again. I have it on the charge at the moment, and the charge light is on, but it aint booting. Not even to the WM6 boot screen (normally gets this far and resets if I've let it run down to normal discharge). I realise it may just require a few hours to get it on the go, but I'm also aware that it may be a more involved job.

Any advice would be well recieved.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Bloody typical, we have some advancement as soon as I post. Lol. Patience is a virtue. It's now booting to the WM6 screen. With a bit of luck it will boot further. Urgh, now the charge light is intermittent. Future progress will be posted. (If for no other reason to educate those who are having similar issues.)

EDIT 2: Removing and reseating the battery has re-engaged the charge light. I will give it a longer charge and see if this will allow further booting. Once it's in WM it should behave normally.

EDIT 3: Success, in an inspired move I plugged the USB cable into a wall adapter (thanks iPhone) for an hour or so, and then booted it. After a nervy couple of seconds it booted into WM, and is now charging nicely. Hope this helps anyone else having a similar episode.
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
Okay...so I played around with Energy's Droid ROM (the latest one), backed up my microSD card and went to play. Came back to winmo and now I can't seem to boot up the phone from a soft reset if the memory card is inserted. Right after the flashy 'X' formation (running 28th Energy Cookie Dinik Glass Theme), the phone's screen just goes blank!

So...I remove the card, and restart the phone, and the phone boots up just fine. I tried this with a blank 1gig microSD and it still does the same thing---what is the phone looking for in the memory card that would halt the startup?

I have task 29'd the phone, reformatted the memory on the card, and still the same issue.

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] johnboatcat:
Did you install a boot loader or something to run Android off the

SD card at windows start-up? Does that Droid ROM come with one built in? Put the android on the SD and see if it boots to it.
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
Tried it, still does the same thing, freezes after 'X' animation, but starts up fine w/o memory card...

android, on the other hand, works just fine...

*sigh*

And, sorry, it's not a Droid ROM, it's

[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
found out what may have been the issue (though yet to be thoroughly tested). The reflashed Energy ROM, was updating itself using the xda_uc restore. This is what was for some reason messing up everything--gotta start fresh, I guess..
[HD2 General] Stray Biker:
I had the same issue with Artemis v14. It ran fine initially but the problem appeared after a while. I flashed to a newer version and formetted the SD card to get rid of the problem.

I have tried radios from the 2.08 to the 2.12 variation with ZERO luck. It always defaults to SOD. I'm running the Chucky ROM- I really hate the delay it has while browsing the internet otherwise I'd probably stick with it as it has never locked up on me. I really do like the FroyoStone android version, sans the 3 mp overexposed camera, charging problems, and no battery left percentage display- its a great build but this screen of death is very annoying. Its intermittent too; just happens to do it whenever it feels like.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] BK_Ryatt:
I had the same issue, but mine seemed to SOD 5 mins after the screen dimmed. I changed to 2.12 and have been running well into 24-30 hrs with no SOD. Change your radio, that should do it.
