The defender is a bit bigger, but not by much, however, I have the Commuter, and it slides good into a pocket, etc. The defender is silicone so I think you would have to use holster to make it more accessible.

To the guy wondering why people like Otterbox, it's because nobody else makes good rugged cases for phones. Iphone has speck, casemate, etc. HD2, has.. Some ****ty Body Glove case from T-Mobile?
[HD2 Accessories] ddgarcia05:
I just got my defender case. And my god, I've never felt more like a man than I do now. It also doubles as a kickstand.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kalagas:
Hello to everyone...

I was wondering if this mod is possible on our Milestone...

Does anyone have tryed this???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nikosblade:
It woull be awesome, but it would need some work on milestone frameworks too.Already a user tried it on milestone but the icon place was blank.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kalagas:
Mine too.

I changed the icons and the xml files that come with the .zip file (stat_sys_battery.xml, stat_sys_battery_charge.xml) and then i had no icon in status bar....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Axiol:
Would be easy by simply edit the framework-res.apk. But the problem is the Milestone display the battery stat only 10% by 10% ...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kalagas:
Yes what's why you must change and some .xml files...

But i don't know how....

So if anyone manage to import this wonderful mod to milestone it will be perfect....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] leobg:
The rom I am currently running (Telus light and fast V3, available here in this same forum) displays the battery percentage in the status bar. It is nice to see percentage (by tens except last few steps - by fives), but battery icon needs some more work design wise (IMO). Maybe it is just a matter of replacing the graphics?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kalagas:
If you read the link in my first post you will see that in that link the battery circle is every 1%.

All the roms now have every 10%...

But i am asking if it's possible to have circle battery every 1% to our Milestones...

So you don't have to change ONLY the graphics.... but also some .xml files in framework-res.apk.

But i don't know which and how....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] leobg:
I thought you want circle battery icon that shows percentage. I don't think it is as simple as framework and XML change to have 1% increments. You need new battery driver. And for this you need new kernel. And, you guessed, for this you need cracked boot loader :) Good luck!

Anyone know where to get the APK outside the market? It's not available in the Korean marketplace for whatever reason? Did a Google search, came up with nothing but news and QR codes.

TIA
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tsanchai:
Also want the apk file as well. Cannot get it from market from Thailand either. Using market enabler faking Market, I can search for Google Earthj but after download, installation fail due to certificate invalid problem

Really want Google Earth 1.1. Please share the link if any friend have one

Cheers

Try AppBrain.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sassyAI:
I have the same problem. And AppBrain doesn´t work for me because it redirects me to the market. And since this is a dead end...

I´m running Android 2.1 on the Milestone...

The older version of Google Earth (v1.0) is here...

(I couldn´t post the link because I´m new. Google this: "google earth android 2.1"

and then it´s the second link from the top. In the comments you find the link to version v1.0 which works find on my device.)

But I can´t find v1.1 on the web.

So if anyone can point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. :)

CM 6 RC3 on Nexus One
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sassyAI:
AppBrain doesn't work for me. It always redirects me to the market where the app is not found.

Any ideas why it worked for you?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] armaki:
I installed Appbrain App Market & Fast web installer on phone.

Registered at http://www.appbrain.com on my PC, logged in, searched Google Earth and installed (through PC) & saw installation was done on my N1. Needless to say N1 was online.

hope this helps.

Hi there.

For anybody needing help on how to install Google Earth with AppBrain, here I wrote an article: it-nthusiast.blogspot.com/2010/08/exclusive-install-google-earth-11-on.html (sorry, but I'm not permitted to post directly links going outside, as I'm a new user).

Hope that helps you. :-)

Thanks lorin_93 ... it does help and works for me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tongas:
Good one, thanks, but after download and try to open it displayed installation unsuccessful.

Any thoughts?

I have tried also market enabler switching a wide variety of operators, no luck...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sassyAI:
I tried the Appbrain App Market & Fast web installer method. It downloaded the app on my milestone and I clicked on it in the notification bar. That was a mistake because it took me too the market again and no installation was done. Yeah stupid me...

After that I tried it again but it doesn´t work anymore. Every other app I push to the phone installs without a problem. Just the Google Earth App doesn´t "arrive" on my milestone anymore.

Any ideas why?

I tried to erase the cache, reinstalled both the AppBrain app and the Fast web installer. But nothing works...

Thanks for the help so far!

No other method is working for me:(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alovell83:
There have been plenty of people looking, I haven't checked back on this thread in a while because I expected better, faster responses. But, that's nearly rude to ask for someone to post it, then saying "I found it, goodbye." when we are all aware people are looking for it, and finding difficulty finding it. I'll dismiss it as a moment of not thinking, but that should've been shared.

Here is the apk file:

http://www.mediafire.com/?l8gqi9egdna5vps

But,

I cannot install the apk file of Google Earth v1.1. onto Motorola Milestone. The system informs "application not installed". I uninstalled the apk of v1.0, then tried to install again this apk 1.1. However, it happened again: Application not installed"

I downloaded the apk file v1.1 from the internet. I tried to 3 different apk files, but the same wrong thing: Application not installed.

I tried to re-installed the apk v1.0, it informed"out of space" though i got the apk v1.0 installation succefully.

Please help!

I posted many forum but no answers found. Please answer
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
Hello.. i'm pretty new to running Android on my Vogue and i've installed Haws Soad ION Donut build because it is pretty fast on this device...

i'm using the voguimg-240x320-02-07-10.nbh @ 120 density as i think this looks better than the forced higher resolution.

do i need a market fix or something if i can't find launcher pro?

thanks for your help guys.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thebulletfromhell:
LauncherPro is Eclair and above only (I think). If you want a fast build, try vaniljeclair in the kaiser forum. And launcherpro work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] golfnz34me:
You could try ADW launcher instead. That's what I use. It's similar to LauncherPro, and has cool theming options.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dsmturbo:
Huh, I tried to install ADW Launcher and it wouldn't let me install it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Does_It_Matter:
Try do a power off / Power On to fresh boot that and then try and re-download

and install the ADW Launcher. I just loaded this last night, new version 1.1.4

Works great on the Donut build - pretty snappy - also installed the

Ubuntu ADW theme - quite nice!

I asked because I havent heard anything. Also I set HD2 Android DEV. as a fav SO I really didnt see a "NEW" section. To the first guy who said I would get flamed , why would I get flamed ?

Sorry for posting in the wrong section also , wont happen again.

Yea, the new General forum is hard to spot if you have this one as a bookmark...no announcement or anything makes it difficult to know...

[Captivate Themes and Apps] jgotti107:
Not sure if anyone has tried this or discussed it but, I recently installed an app called 'GPS STATUS' off of the market, and every since I have been able to get a lock on several satellites (with it running in the background). This was a MAJOR help for me as I hadn't got any GPS signal that was even close to precise in the whole month I have owned the phone. This is not my first android device (started with a G1 when it was first released...definately the reason I stick with android devices), but I feel it is one of the best available (less flash/flash player) but all in all a solid piece of equipment especially when we get the froyo update...(just my 2 cents; -))...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] revjwb32:
getting now will test out the gps on the way home..... Update tomorrow

Update used google turn by turn 5 min to lock

after lock never lost signal GPS was spot on,,,, maybe this will continue to work

may be like all the other fixes, temporary

THANKS
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc_woe_is_me:
I use the XDA app on my Incredible way more than I actually come online these days, which recently imposed a problem for me.

I never knew this Incredible Q&A sub-forum existed. I ended up getting flamed in the Incredible General sub-forum for posting all of my questions in there. When I click HTC Droid Incredible in the Forums (XDA app) all that comes up is General, Development, Accessories, and Themes and Apps.

Is this Q&A sub-forum new?

What is actually supposed to be posted in the General topics forum? Looks like all random questions to me, that's why I've always posted mine there.

Sorry, I know this isn't actually about the Incredible itself and please don't flame if this doesn't belong in this sub-forum. I'm just trying to keep the peace with the rest of the contributors in here. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeeBG:
The Q&A sub-forum is a new feature as of the last 24-hours as I did not see it yesterday when checking or any time before that. Some people flame because they see the same questions being asked a lot. That is not a valid reason to flame someone, but if you are running into an issue or have a question about something, it's likely someone else has as well =p.

A stick quote from a mod at the top of this thread, describing the difference between it and "General" would be helpful, but I am going to guess that the Q&A is for exactly that and General would almost be where you go when you have something to say about the phone that doesn't fit any place else (i.e., if Verizon announced a release date for an OTA, that should probably go under "General"). I hope I was able to help.

P.S. - Also if you feel you are being unfairly flamed in any way, don't be hesitate to flag the flamer's post so the mods can take a look at it. Not something to be abused, however if mods notice a pattern of a specific user making a lot of heated comments, they are more likely to be temp-banned sooner than if not flagged.

I also like the ability to create playlist coz I like the option to be able to play music by mood.

i need a good MEDIA Player, and a good sync client.

I have more than one device, i have a milestone as well. and i change devices like the wind.

lastly i have mood playlists and these msut be synced well.

so I use Windows Media Player in Windows 7. its magic.

Great Media Player, and does sync pretty well with the sync.

I have a problem with Double twist. Seems when it transfers m4a files encoded by Itunes, (I used to use OS Crap), it doesnt transger the tags. so half my librtary (Music I actually bought and encoded, vs downloading on the Bay) all gets lumped in the Unknown artist area, even though the tags are in the desktop app.

WMP doesnt sync playlists unless you use MTP protocol, (ie it will only transfer and check if the song in a playlist exists, but it wont actually tranfer the playlist file itself)

so i manually export the playlist files onto the device.

that way i have one media program on my computer.

I've always loved NexusMod live wallpaper but it does not work on froyo. i have purchased NexusMod and it sucks that it is only available on cyanogen's froyo ROMs (at least im pretty sure thats the only place you can get it to work). i noticed drizzy linked to nexusmod that functions on froyo but unfortunatly it's in an "update.zip" format (for anyone unfamiliar with android that means you would flash it just like a ROM). is there anyway to turn that file into a ".apk" file so we could install it manually since out HD2s dont have a recovery image to flash ROMs/update.zip files the same way a Nexus One can?

PS. i hope its alright to link to this attachment. i believe its nothing more than the file ripped from cyanogen's froyo ROM.

No, I cannot give you a source because the information is not available in the public domain. This information was passed in confidence between Sony Ericsson and a mobile operator.

I thought it'd be nice for me to share this information with you guys but if it's causing so much distress, I have no problem keeping it to myself. Frankly, it's not worth risking my job by posting a confidential e-mail here.
