Hi Guys,

i'm trying to change the Bootanimation in Android since a few Days now...

but had no luck yet!

in newest shubcrafts release there is the new canyogen bootani...

but i'm currently on FroyoStone V1 with Sense... so while booting there is firstly the HTC Logo on White screen, after that the android animation...

i've found a couple of nice animations.... i wanna try them... but no lock either where i copy the bootanimation.zip ...

found following path where it should be:

/system/media

/system/costumize/resource

/data/local/

nothing works...

any hints?! what did i wrong??

the other thing is that i want to disable the verbose boot of haret/android...

i think that should be somewhere to disable... maybe someone knows that too!

thx
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thesweeney:
I dont know about the boot anim.... but to REDUCE the ammount of debugging info at boot simply add 'quiet' to the set cmd in your startup.txt

so for example it would look like set cmdline "lpj=638976 quiet".

sorry if this is something already known to you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] futureshock:
hey thx no i didn't know that...

i will try if i get my android build back working :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] futureshock:

thx

My nexus one is running CM 6.0.0 RC2 and clockwork recovery

My camera app is completely dark and green as you can see in link below

twitpic.com/2hff4f (add http since i'm new user, and can't post outside link)

this is picture, I took at midday.

Yesterday, I used my phone completely out of battery. It's power off even my usb is connected with PC and I can't charge it up even 1% if the phone still turn on. I can still charge it with wall charger. But after that battery is drained really fast. normally I can stay about 8-9 hours with usb charge via PC about 2-3 hours. But today my battery is at 10% after 5 hours even I charge with usb, it still counting down.

I've already tried to wipe/factory reset nandroid restore to 5.0.8 and wipe/flash CM 6.0.0 RC3 but no luck problem still exists.

I don't sure both issue is related or not. Anyone experiences these issues please help, any suggestion is welcome.

are these issues are hardware/software problem

sorry for my bad english.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
download the .zip file with the rom, put it on your sd card

boot into recovery (volume down and power) then select recovery on the hboot screen and press power to enter.

Select "flash .zip from sd card" or similar"

find the rom on your sd card and follow on screen isntructions.

You will need to "wipe" first though also in recovery.

Hello, i have 2 questions / problems

i noticed that i cannot wirte SMS when i write via the "ANSWER" button or in the chatwindow, i always have to choose the contact seperately, otherwise there will occur an error msg,

do you know how to solve it?

and the market problem : I can login into the market etc, no problem but in there i cannot download anything, it just says "starting download" but doesnt go further..

My WiFi connection (in Singapore) is very good

Solution: Do not try to use the WiFi of Universities in Singapore as they are blocked for some web services such as Android Market etc.

this means it is now my daily OS lol!!!

i am using stock rom- with radio 12
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ImeXis:
noone an idea?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thatruth132:
you might want to look into "hspl3" then finding a recommended custom rom and

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dandruff333:
I have the same issue only when trying to reply international sms. Either I reply through their contact or edit the answered sms and manually add in a "+", despite already having a + in the contact info.

I am located in Singapore too, though I'm not sure if this has anything to do with this problem.

I do not have the same issues with market.

I'm using chuckydroidrom with the previous darkstone build. Any help will be much appreciated.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ImeXis:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] veda_sticks:
dont let android set time via network, this seems to break market downloads. also incorrect date and time settings can cause the same problem. Set the time manually and it seems to work fine after that.

I had the same problem with market and as soon as i manually set the time. market downloads started working
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ImeXis:
hello thx for the tip but it still does not work, changed time to different settings, used market enebler and everything, does not start to download things :( any other advices?

But my WinMob time switches to the year 2020 all the time,... maybe that is the issue`? but whyy?? does it do that?

hi,

i am new to android community and i read the MARTIN's softroot procedure. I could download all the required packages but when i run the INSTALL command on my vista HP 32-bit OS, it says DEVICE NOT FOUND.... in what mode i have to connect the device ??

please explain me the complete procedure of doing rooting.... :)
[Wildfire General] rolks:
just send two files(softmod.apk&superuser.apk) to card and install as http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=757191
[Wildfire General] imlgl:
You can use appinstaller on your phone, or use htc sync to install it to your phone.
[Wildfire General] cashisback:
Or just send em to your pone via bluetooth.
[Wildfire General] paikia2010:
sorry i'm new to booting also. which folder do i place the files ?
[Wildfire General] seshvasan89:
Thanks to all above...

And you can keep the files anywhere in the card...
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Here's a little script to push a file to the root of your sdcard, by right-clicking on the file and selecting "Send to Android"

I wrote it because I copy zip files to my sdcard a lot, and don't like mounting usb storage. :)

Updated: If the file is an apk file, you have the option to install it or just copy it to your sdcard.

It uses adb.exe from the Android SDK. It's quite basic, but I guess could be adapted or made more complex quite easily.

The download is at the bottom of this post.

Linux users

Create this script in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/

Call it something sensible like "Send\ to\ Android". Just edit the path to your adb.

#!/bin/sh

export adb=~/AndroidSDK/tools/adb
export tmp=/tmp/.out

for arg
do

if [ `echo $arg | awk -F "." {'print $2'}` = "apk" ]; then
zenity --question --text="Do you want to install $arg?" --no-wrap --ok-label="Install" --cancel-label="Push to sdcard" --title="Question"
if [ "$(echo $?)" == "0" ]; then
$adb install -r "$arg" 1>> $tmp 2>> $tmp
export result=$(tail -n1 $tmp)
zenity --info --text="$result"
else
$adb push "$arg" /sdcard/ 1>> $tmp 2>> $tmp
export result=$(tail -n1 $tmp)
zenity --info --text="$result"
fi
else
$adb push "$arg" /sdcard/ 1>> $tmp 2>> $tmp
export result=$(tail -n1 $tmp)
zenity --info --text="$result"
fi

done

[ -f $tmp ] && rm -f $tmp

Now you can push files to /sdcard or install apk's by using right-click - scripts - Send to Android :)
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Doesnt work with me, when i click for a file to be sent it says " this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action". What have i done wrong!?
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Sounds like your file association with vbs files is messed up ...

What happens when you just double click on the pushfile.vbs file? If the file association is working you should get an error about incorrect usage.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
I too get the same problem, but launching the vbs script tells me about incorrect usage, and to drag a file into the script

EDIT: works now, I forgot to double one of the many slashes in the path to the vbs file

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] xtcislove:
U have to edit the reg file, too! There must be contained the pusfile.vbs location

Works very well!Many many thanks for this!

Is pushing faster then the transfer with mounting?

How it is with Folders? Did it replace or dit it include? I mean i have a folder that is called Music. So if i upload a new folder named Music will the old one be replaced or will it be updated with the new files?(Overwrite existing for example)
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
ok so try opening regedit:

hkey_classes_root

*

shell

push to sdcard

commands

Double click on Default, and edit the value in there to point to your vbs file.
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Not really faster, but more convenient.

You can highlight a selection of files and push them all to /sdcard/ , but can't do folders yet. I might modify it and put out another version. :)
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Yup works for me too! Thanks a lot!
[Desire Android Development] CooperXIII:
This will make a little more comfortable my life. Thank you! :)

[Desire Android Development] K900:

[Desire Android Development] Ghashul:
Cool, thanks! Works fine in WinXP here.
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Updated: Now if you right-click an apk file and use 'send to Android' (or push to sdcard) you have the option to install it.

I've just bought a brand new desire on an O2 contract, which of course means it was locked to O2 only. I've now unlocked it and am using my Voda SIM card in it which is working perfectly.

However, today I read that Vodaphone relased the 2.2 OTA update, but when I try to check for updates it says my phones software is up to date.

Does this mean I need to put the official Vodaphone ROM on to allow me to update to 2.2? I'm a bit put off about rooting my device though, as I've got the 0.83 bootloader and I'm pretty sure it's a SLCD screen, which I've heard can have a few issues if putting new ROM's onto.

Cheers for any advice,

You are running branded O2 software, so you will not get Vodafone's update. You need to wait for O2 to release an update, or debrand and run stock 2.2.

i'm not sure if the usb connection even has enough pins to enable such control of sending song name etc to the head unit and filtering etc?

could this be done over bluetooth?

Hello, when I'm in office I have my HD2 always "plugged" to a cradle connected to my PC via USB. I haven't selected the option to disconnect charging when the device is connected to a PC and now I wonder if the fact to keep connected the HD2 to a charging source yet when the charge is 100% can harm battery and reduce its "lifetime"....I have an app that monitors the battery temperature and this temperature has the same values when the battery is charging as well when the battery is fully charged but the HD2 is still connected...

Opinions about?

Battery "lifetime" is dependant on a number of factors, but, to maximise the useful capacity just charge it as often as you can. Then when not on charge you will get the "best" performance" from it.

Lithium batteries last longer with top up charges rather than deep charges.

As PA49 says, keep it topped up as often as possible.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shepscape:
Hi guys,

ok... I have an HTC desire... originally on Virgin Mobile and now unlocked. I'm an O2 customer...

I have rooted and installed the Leedroid rom... originally at version 1.8b. Everything was fine.... until I had a corruption on the SD card.... which I fixed when I got a second following a couple of days of "mounted read only." A day or so later, I lost connection to the O2 network and have been unable to regain it, despite several ROM (I'm now running Leedroid 1.9) and radio reflashes.

I still have access to wi-fi, gps etc.

I have tested my sim card in another phone (all ok) as well as other sim cards in my phone (doesn't work.) I have also swapped and tried another O2 sim.

The phone detects all the major networks... just won't let me connect.

The error message I get when trying to connect to a network manually is "your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"

I've obviously checked that the phone isn't IMEI blocked etc. I've also tried the sim unlock from the fastboot menu, the switching on and off of the radio, airplane mode... lots and lots of stuff.

I really am at my wits end with this issue. I love the desire... but it's obviously of no use to me without the phone element!!!

Can anyone please suggest something to solve this problem???? Could the corruption of the sd card have caused this in some way, despite several rom/radio reflashes since? I really want to stick with the desire, but at the moment I effectively have a £400 brick....

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.....

Shep
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Firstly this is not a development issue, its a question.....

But anyway, when the phone is telling you that you cannot connect to the network is it allowing you to enter an unlock code at all? Or have you ever "unlocked" the phone in the past?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shepscape:
You're right Lenny... apologies for creating the thread in the wrong part of the forum.... perhaps a mod could move it....

Yes... the phone was unlocked from Virgin mobile prior to me buying it [from ebay.] I didn't perceive this to be an issue, given that I actually had connection to O2 for a day or two before losing it...

No... the phone/sim is not asking for a code when I attempt to connect.

Thanks,

Shep
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
and did it stop letting you on randomly, or did you do something immediately before?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shepscape:
Nope... completely random. I was in a poor reception area and initially put it down to this... but then it never returned and I'm now back at home having had zero connection for a week.

I think that my repair of the SD card was after I initially lost connection. But as I said, I'm not sure whether the SD card corruption is a red herring.
