Here are my two scripts that I have been working on.

1. Update.zip maker (Windows/Linux):

Get it here.

Usage is described in the comments at the bottom of the page.

Attached are the update scripts needed.

2. Backuptool (Windows):

Get it here.

Usage is at the bottom again. This has only been tested on a GSM HTC Hero so far.

This script is commented.

Please feel free to fork any of these. Please report any bugs you find here and I will try to fix them.

Thanks to daentech, AColWill, Tjh and pulser(_g2) for testing and helping write the scripts :)

Also, any ideas for a new script?

Hi All,

we are now developing Android phone on mmp2 board which is of landscape mode. We found Galley3D works perfectly on portrait mode phone while has a problem on landscape one. As you know Gallery3D can tilt pictures/videos according to values of Gsensor. But the Gsensor’s coordinator on landscape mode phone is different from that of portrait. This difference make Galley3D’s not working well on our mmp2 board, i.e., Gallery3D only supports portrait mode phone. Below is for the details:

Let’s take a look at onSensoChanged function in file GridInputProcessor.java, Gallery3D calculates the tilt value from X-axis value (values [0]) / Y-axis value (values [1]) depends on the compare of current display’s width and height.

public void onSensorChanged(RenderView view, SensorEvent event, int state) {

…..

switch (event.sensor.getType()) {

case Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER:

float[] values = event.values;

/*tilt value is calculated from X-axis value (values [0]) / Y-axis value (values [1]) */

float valueToUse = (mCamera.mWidth < mCamera.mHeight) ? values[0] : -values[1];

float tiltValue = 0.8f * mPrevTiltValueLowPass + 0.2f * valueToUse;

…… }

break;

}

}

For Portrait mode phone:

(1) When Gallery3D is in Portrait mode, tiltValue uses value of X axis since mWidth < mHeight, Galley3D would tilt the pictures when X value of Gsensor changes, this behavior is expected.

(2) When Gallery3D is in Landscape mode, tiltValue uses value of Y axis since mWidth > mHeight, Galley3D would tilt the pictures when Y value of Gsenso changes, this behavior is expected.

For Landscape mode phone:

(3) When Gallery3D is in Portrait mode, tiltValue uses value of Y axis since mWidth < mHeight, Galley3D would tilt the pictures when Y value of Gsensor changes changes, this behavior is unexpected.

(4) When Gallery3D is in Landscape mode, tiltValue uses value of X axis since mWidth > mHeight, Galley3D would tilt the pictures when value of X value of Gsensor changes, this behavior is unexpected.

/samba/LandscapeMode.bmp

Questions:

(1) Do we have solution to fix this issue? Is that in APP?

(2) There are some other Gsensor games in the market has the same issue, i.e., only support Portrait mode phone, e.g., the Teeter Game, is there any idea for the workaround in framework/SensorHAL so that those games can still be used in Landscape mode phone?

Hope above is clear; we are looking forward to your kindly reply and many thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] fards:
it definitely supports landscape, I'm using it on my Dell streak using leaked eclair firm ware, quick is forced/ locked landscape.

unless Dell have altered the code, which can't tell because they won't release the source, can't really help much more than that. just to let you know that it works

You own a Vodafone HTC Desire righ? With your help we can get the download link. A person on Vodafone UK official forum managed to download the latest firmware by some smart work. All he did was checked the name of the file that the phone was slowly downloading. So what you need to do is capture the OTA_..... text from your phone and paste it in the place holder. http://liveimage.htc.com//[OTA_goeshere].zip.Please share if you manage to do it successfully.

Handled one today!

I was at a store in St. Louis and asked to see the Epic and the store rep said they couldn't show me one. I talked a little with him and said I guess I would be back on the 31st and as I was walking out of the store he told me to hold on. He went in the back and brought one out. I didn't play with it much but what what I did do showed me how fast and responsive it was. I have a FUZE right now with a custom rom on it and there was no comparision between the two. Just thought I would let anyone who is interested know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ken B:
Picked one up today.

Well I made the plunge. The phone is great but I have one big issue. The voice dial on the phone doesn't work and I think it is related to the microphone. I've tried to do a voice memo and it won't do that either. Anyone having these problems? Thanks.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
You need to use ClockWorkMod (CWM). There is a thread close by that will root and burn the firmware with CWM.

You download the ROM file or transfer it into your DL directory. In CWM there is an option for installing a zip file from your SD card. BTW, once you burn CWM you need to hold the power button, the camera button, and the volume down key from a powered off phone. Keep holding all three buttons till CWM pops up (it is green in color).

If you peruse the first 20 or so threads in "Android Development" it will tell you everything you want to know. Good luck and happy burning!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amadoru:
Hi All,

my brother just got an Xperia X10 (without warranty) two days back, and it's been restarting itself over and over again sometimes.. sometimes it simply does not charge, and sometimes sim goes un-detected leaving "activating phone" on the screen.. whenever i re-install the os, the problem goes off for few hours then it comes back again. It has the R2BA020 update and whenever i run sony erricson update service, it shows me as the phone has the latest firmware so i always have to stick with R2BA020 firmware. I am thinking may be an upgrade to the phone might solve the issue with the phone. But i'm being unable to upgrade to any firmware like R2BA023 or R2BA026. I know R2BA026 has a wifi issue.. but at least 3G works and phone works.. :)

Any help anyone? Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DBSS:
Sounds like it is the phone that is the problem and not the firmware revision. I and many others here are on R2BA020 with no issues.

You say that you have done a reinstall of this, was it the repair installation through PC Companion or SEUS? Later FW releases are only available if the network releases it or if you are rooted and dependent on what Firmware you rooted with (Generic, Combi, etc... and from what country).
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy8271:
for the phone faults i would try a new/different sim card first.

what network is the phone on ? is it branded ? your network might not of released the latest updates yet

why does it have no warranty ? SE offer a 1 years manufacturer warranty that goes off the serial no
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rynoon:
If you're on Rogers I believe that was the latest (and first) firmware update. You won't be getting an updated version if that's the case.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amadoru:
It's bricked now :(

Hey Guys,

Sorry for the late reply. I was expecting to have email alerts if someone replies, but i had forgotten to enable email notifications apperently.

Whenever I got that problem, I used to re-install the firmware and then it works for a day or maximum two. but couple of days back, phone just went down while using it and when i tried to repeat the firmware re-install process, either SEUS nor PC companion detects my phone version. "It says device could not be identified. try again later". I tried to root the device and it fails with this error.

This is not a branded phone. I bought this device from someone returned from UK and he got this from T-Mobile UK. (at least thats what he said).

why does it have no warranty ? SE offer a 1 years manufacturer warranty that goes off the serial no

do you mean i have the warranty despite the fact that i'm not using it with t-mobile and i'm not the original owner?

any suggestion to unbrick this device is highly appreciated.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockjock007:
The warranty is country specific I have found. Contact sony of canada and se if they will foot the bill, otherwise you will need to ship it to the UK for service I am afraid. Is it a Xperia x10i ?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] the dragonlord:
Hello everybody, I own an HD2 that is alway connected to a table cradle (connected via USB to a PC) during the day when I'm in Office. I wonder if exist an app that allows to manage the battery charging: I explain...I'd like that the HD2 AUTOMATICALLY "turns off" the charging when the battery is fully charged at 100% and automatically "turns it on" again when the battery charge reaches a given threshold (60-50-40% or something like that). If you own an IBM/Lenovo Laptop I'd like something like the power managment app. Of course the data syncronization HAVE ALWAYS TO STAY TURNED ON regardless the chargin of the battery.

Does it exist somehing like that?

Thanks and regard

Andrea
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pedmond:
There is a setting that allows for the battery not to recharge when connected to a PC. Other than that, I completely fail to see what would be the purpose of what you are asking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] the dragonlord:
thanks for your answer! I already know the setting you're talking about, but as I told early I'd like something that manages this setting automatically. The purpose is to avoid the decreasing of the battery lifetime caused by letting the battery itself "always" connected to a charging source. For example in the Laptop PCs it's better to unplug the battery when the laptop is conncted to an external power source/charging unit...

Thanks

Andrea
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pedmond:
Most modern devices (and, I believe the HD2) actually disconnect charging when the battery is at 100%. The green light doesn't mean that your HD2 is still charging, but that it's at 100%. Therefore I don't believe you actually shorten the battery life by keeping it plugged in.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] the dragonlord:
I did believe it too but I have an app wich monitors the battery temperature and still when the battery charge is 100% its temperature remains "high" (35 grades degrees) as long as I keep the device plugged to the cradle. I see the same temperature value when the battery is actually charging...this fact have made me change my mind about the fact that the HD2 disconnect charghing when 100% is reached...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xaccers:
Its not the battery which is getting hot, it's the phone.

If I had a lithium-poly/ion battery that was reaching 35C I'd be very worried!

If your app is showing the battery at 35C, turn the phone off, remove the battery and it should be cool to the touch.

If it's hot then you have a problem.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] the dragonlord:
you're right, it's the device, not the battery....I'll throw away the temp app!!! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xaccers:
:D

Heat will decrease the life expectancy of the battery, but so will deep charging rather than top ups, remember with non-NiCd batteries you don't get memory effect, so the only reason to do a deep charge is to recalibrate the software battery meter.

Of course leaving the battery sitting on a shelf will also degrade it's capacity, they start to degrade as soon as they're produced, so buying a spare and not using it until your original battery dies is not a good idea, better to buy a replacement battery when the original starts failing.

HTC's batteries actually seem very reasonably priced too which is refreshing.

Hi all, I was randomly browsing EPST tonight and noticed that a bunch of my WiMax settings had weird rectangles where data should be. I can't test to see if my WiMax is working or not, but I'm a little concerned. I am not rooted right now, running 2.2. After getting updated to 2.2 I did change some of my WiMax info to make it work more efficiently. I've been trying to update my PRI lately, but otherwise haven't touched EPST.
