[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shival:
Thanks!

I was just wondering haha. This will be my first android device and it will be the first device I have ever bought from my carrier. Having had my Touch HD which started out at TF3D and WinMo 6.1 and is now at HTC Sense and WinMo 6.5.5 and I have kinda hit the limit.

This is actually the first Samsung device I have ever found that I may like. I hope I will enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed my HTC.

Was waiting for AT&T to pick up a High-end HTC Android device but it doesn't sound like it is gonna happen.

Thanks for the replies though!

I hope this device will have good support here to keep it updated

Hi guys. Earlier in the year I produced some work. I printed the file off and I've had a copy ever since. I've come back to edit it, and I appear to have lost the file on my laptop :|

I've recreated the document based on the hard-copy I have. I'm having a few troubles identifying the font though. Can anybody help me?!

I'm pretty sure it's not Arial, as the letter A looks different.

Helvetica.

[Edit: Or Gothic]
[Off-topic] alexluckett:
Nah it isn't, but thanks anyway :)!
[Off-topic] Aesir Rising:
The 'R' differs. I missed that. The lower case 'r' is suspect for my next guess as well, but I'll go with:

Gothic 720

identifont.com/show?296

(and that's my final answer...) ;)

Helpful characters (that are not in your screenshot) to help ID the font family would be to see currency symbols, such as USD and GBP, the ampersand, some capital letters such as M and G. The number 4 as well.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brpqzme:
Hey guys,

I've just got a new desire so I'm a newbie at this :o

was thinking of changing the ROM on it, but most of the roms require an upgraded radio. I've rooted my desire simply enough, but can I upgrade the radio fine or would I need an 'unlock code' that some people talk about? I don't want to get locked out of my desire accidentally!

thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
This is more of a work around to the problem of not having a compatible software app for the SGS to easily Switch between the different data modes to either save battery or prevent unnecessary 3G data on limited data plans

(I tried all the 2G/3G switchers and other alikes, but none were compatible with our SGS)

There's a simple way to Turn Off G/2G/3G/H without going into Air Plane mode is by simply creating a null or empty APN setting profile like this:

using the same method you can create an APN profile that is only for MMS, this way you can still get SMS/MMS and Phone calls, without incurring extra data or wasting power on GPRS/EDGE/3G/3.5G
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oyko:

Hey guys wondering all these Rom makers or Google/htc made any multi touch fix?

With all the custom kernels and open source roms, has any developer attempted to fix this issue?

Would like to play games without on screen keyboard issues due to multi touch, this also affects typing fast.

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Hardware not software please do some research
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronaldo_9:
Thanks. So does the s-lcd have the same issues?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
the type of screen does not make a difference its the bit that lets the phone detect touch that is the issue here.

All HTC devices detect only one touch, and then detect the "size" of that touch which allows it to have pinch zoom when it detects a change in the size.

It cannot detect 2 individual touches.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedeabc:
please delete
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
you obviously didn't read what I just posted then.

It cannot touch 2 different touches at one, it detects one LARGE touch when two fingers are on, and then when you "pinch" it detects the size of that LARGE touch getting bugger or smaller.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhine:
Search for "Multitouch Visible Test" in the market.

That is an app for displaying the detected finger touches.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
the desire dosent have multi touch, but dual touch instead, the issues people are having with games is beacause the desire gets confused When two fingers are placed close to each other or they cross the same axis because the data points get flipped, this is because of the way dual touch works, When you touch the screen with two fingers one by one, you get three points of reference: 1) Fixed Point – location of first finger, 2) Real Point – hardware detection point when two fingers are placed and 3) Fake Point – location of second finger. Interestingly, the hardware does not ‘know’ about this position – instead it is calculated by the application.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris2busy:
Is this translated in a hardware level or just driver?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
And as mentioned you are wrong, as the desire do detect 2 points/fingers. Any multitouch test app from the market will show that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
no, what we have said is correct, the apps show an output but its not true multitouch.

All you have to do is try any multitouch app and do a google search to see all deivces up until now (after desire) made by HTC have dual touch, not multitouch

basically speaking it can detect certain multitouch gestures but not everything.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kickasskev:
well i can play sonic and a load of other games and snesoid on the genisoid with run and jump buttons together, which tells me it's at least dual touch, to be honest the screen isnt really big enough to get 3 or 4 fingers on it properly and see what you are doing anyway

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I am not on about the lack of multitouch, there is a bug with two points with two near x, or y, axis points; they join together for some strange reason.

Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noQBUDy-WCQ

This is why multitouch keyboards dont work and there are problems with the PSX4droid emulator when having both dpad and control buttons on top or both on bottom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLastOne:
I read somewhere that there was code in Android for a that filtered the Droid's multitouch results, that results in the Droid not having the axis flipping issue (does still have the sticking issue when close). Is there any way this code can be implemented on the Desire?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.r9:
I think a developer called Phhusion on the Acer liquid forum in Modaco solved this software wise.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perettigiuliano:
NO...

i am reading the post but... it's a work around... and it is works quite well, quite...

It does not resolve the bug!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beidl:
Well, thinking of a workaround for the bug...

In theory, it should be possible to put the latest coordinates on a stack,

and every time the coordinates switch "suddenly", it should revert these with the ones

from the stack and add the difference to the coordinates and use these.

(hard to explain when english is not your first language ;) )

I just don't know enough about touch sensor driver development,

maybe I could try to modify the pointer example of the dev tools with the hack i thougt about, just to see if I could prove my theory.

Let's just hope I have enough time for that. If it works, MAYBE its possible to modify the framework to use the hack.

EDIT: thought about my theory a second time... wouldn work when the wrong coordinates are registered before there are any "right" coordinates. Ok, my theory sucks. ^^
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perettigiuliano:
There is no way to work around that bug... in an optimal way i mean...

If you try to interpolate previous coordinates maybe you can predict with an a good approssimation SOME new coordinates, i repeat SOME...

The bug is very huge if you know it!

It is something about 50 pixel on X and Y axis, in that 50 pixel boundaries i can make an enormous qunatity of movements: vertical, horizontal all these movements in the DEAD ZONE...

Nope!

No way to avoid bug...

Bye!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prema:
As far as i am aware there are two issues with the clearpad2000 in the Desire\N1:

- Axis flipping

- Points "sticking" when the axis cross

According to Cyanogen the axis flipping can be fixed:

-------------------------------------------------------

There is a section in the framework that

specifically addresses the software workaround:

overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml

....

+ <!-- Enables special filtering code in the framework for raw

touch events

+ from the touch driver. This code exists for one particular

device,

+ and should not be enabled for any others. Hopefully in the

future

+ it will be removed when the lower-level touch driver

generates better

+ data.

+ <bool name="config_filterTouchEvents">false</bool>

-------------------------------------------------------------

I don´t know if any dev ever implemented it though.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codral:
Hey guys, i've been looking into this problem for quite some time (i have basic computer knowledge but that's about as far as anything goes so my looking into isn't particularly fruitful) anywho, has anyone got a youtube version or written comparison between stock and a 'switch-flipped' rom? Or is there any roms which are identical to the standard but + the switch?

i'd love to see one, i just got my desire and didn't want to flash sooner than necessary but this problem has me on the verge of selling it... This is the only forum i've found so far that wasn't all just talk, people in her actually knew what they were talking about, soo logical choice of place to try for help.

cheers... I am happy to post any standard-rom multitouch benchmarks you require if they will be helpful

I just noticed that changing where the D-pad and the symbol pad are on psx4droid changes things.. This doesn't make much sense to me, when the D-pad is bottom right and the symbols are top left (as opposed to the inverse with D pad up top and symbols bottom) it doesn't have the problem... This seems to imply some problem other than the sticking axes one... It is definitely munted when i use the controls bottom-bottom or top-top.. hmm
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
is it not because when you use top + top or bottom + bottom, the axis are too close to eachother, and this leads to the confusion with the axis getting crossed but having them at oposite corners of the screen means you have a y axis of like -5 and an x axis of +5 so its easyer for the desire to determine the location of the 2nd finger :confused:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codral:
sorry, my question was a bit confusing,

The bottom-bottom and top-top format are screwed

for some reason when it is top D-pad -bottom symbol there is errors whereas when it's top symbols and bottom D-pad there is no errors, weird as

tempted to just try the rom fix and hope it doesn't brick

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TVTV:
It's obvious that you don't have a clue about what you're talking about, Nemesis2k12. The Desire is just dual-touch at MOST. It's equipped with an old Synaptics ClearPad 2000 touch sensor, which is only designed for pinch-to-zoom-like actions, not even for true dual-touch. The only "fix" ever discovered was first implemented by the Cyanogen Team and only helps with the axis inversion phenomenon. The axis stickiness is, at this time, still not fixed/fixable. And that's the biggest culprit, IMHO.

I dunno. my us cell desire says it has 295mb of ram free right now in advanced task killer. good bit of stuff running too. maybe it does only have 384, but i would think i would have a lot less free than that considering my droid 1 was almost always at 15-20mb free with 256mb. and that was a vanilla rom. no htc sense.

I think it could be a typo on htc site.

That would be great if it was a typo. I just watched a youtube video on US celluar version and he said 512 ram. I really want this phone b/c the galaxy s that is coming out is just a little to big of a phone to me.

Absolutely not. In fact it is the fastest stock android device I have ever used. And I have had or used almost all of the decent ones.

Just returned my Galaxy s (captivate) to att and switched to USCC last week to get the desire (way better service here).

Desire flat out kicks the galaxy's ass in everything except display. However, its still a very good display.

Not to mention I prefer the desires size a little more. Just a great phone.

ONLY bad thing about it is there wont be any damn developer support being on a small carrier.
