Android Bit Torrent Client

EDIT: I seriously just typed "Torrent Downloading for Android", your posts title, in google... guess what I found? the answer...

Swarm BitTorrent client

Use Swarm. It's the best torrent client on Android EVER, because it actually works. It costs $5 but it's absolutely worth it.

Breakout Wallpaper is an Android live wallpaper which plays the brick-busting game of breakout around your launcher icons.

This was developed using a stripped down version of Wakka Wallpaper. It should serve as an example of how to create live wallpapers and will hopefully be a gateway drug for users to purchase my for-pay wallpapers.

Not sure what is causing it but the battery is suddenly reporting 117 degrees F for the battery which is quite hot when in my pocket and the battery seems to drain almost instantly, but nothing is reporting CPU usage. Opinions?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] almircuric:
I don't know, but the fact , that i have seen on my friend's original android phone batterry temperature of 5 degrees celsius tells you everything. It doesn't measure it accuratelly. Not att all. How can a battery be cooler than, lets say, body temperature, or so.... So that is the answer.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
Yeah, but he also said that he can feel it in his pocket. Obviously thats WAY to hot and probably not super safe. If i were you i'd shut it down with the battery out for about ten minutes and re-run Android.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_Toyol:
Hi there,

When I sync/link my Contact with Facebook, I got wrong birth date for all of my contacts. The birth date shown in contacts are earlier by 1 day. Example, if my friend put their birth date in Facebook 5th November, when I sync my contact, it will shown as 4th November.

I wonder if there are others experiencing the same and is there any workarounds? TQ in advance.

-Red-
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azrudin99:
have a same problem to.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajmistry:
I had a similar problem.

I think the problem is caused when you have multiple inputs (links) for a single contact (eg PC Sync, Facebook, SIM, etc).

The easiest thing to do is to un-link your contact, see if you've got a birthday for him or her in any other input (apart from facebook). Remove the birthday in the other links, then re-link it all up.

This should solve the issue.

:rolleyes:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_Toyol:
I only store my contacts in my gmail account, in which mostof those contacts in my gmail do not have birthday specified. All birthday date are from facebook. But still I have this problem. When I check their facebook profiles, the date are correct. So the problem must be when Desire show the date in "people" contact.

At first I thought the problem was caused by the ROM I installed. I have tried many ROM - Defrost, NextSense, AuraxtSense, CM, LeeDroid. All of them the same. I wonder why..

-Red-
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
could it be to do with timezones?

something trying too hard to get the birthdays correct in real time so you don't send the well wishes to your friend on the other side of the date line 1 day too early or too late?

I just ordered some Realook screen protectors from Amazon today. The stores here did not have any screen protectors of any brand for the Vibrant, and I just didnt want to wait any longer without protection. Then to my surprise a few of the Bell Mobility dealers just got in some iShieldz. They tell me they stopped carrying other brands because they found these were the best protectors hands down. Can anyone else comment on how they compare to the Realook protectors.
[Vibrant Accessories] salmanslick:
i recently bought some cheap ebay protectors for my galaxy s and to be honest i was not satisfied with the finish and bubbles on my screen. so i came on here and researched on screen protectors there are 2 kinds of them : one is water based screen protector ishields is one of them and second is dry application. i did not want to risk my device with water damage and went with realook "SP". ishields are not smooth and have that rubber feel to it just like invisible shields. i would recommend reallook as long as u do a bubble free installation , install it in ur bathroom after u take a shower cuz the dust particles settles down in steam :)

i will post some pix of my samsung with realook on in next post

here s a 10 % off coupon if u order from amazon "2ZDlV2W5"
[Vibrant Accessories] DKYang:
Never heard of iSheldz, but if you can, go in store and see if they have any demos to get a feel of it. If it feels like rubber, then well, it's your call. I don't like that rubber feeling and went with Realook. Realook is like a piece of plastic per say. You don't have that rubber feeling and after awhile, it will feel just like the naked screen, for me anyways.

Your call.
[Vibrant Accessories] SamVib:
I'm in the market for a screen protector too. I heard Realook is better than iShields but, I like the rubber feel better.

Anybody with Realook, is the installation easy?
[Vibrant Accessories] samnada:
Is Realook installation easy?

For me it was not very easy, and not very difficult. I got frustrated initially by dust particles (which for me were impossible to avoid) causing bubbles. The key turned out to be using scotch tape to remove individual spots from the underside of the film (which is exactly what the directions suggest).

The other trick was getting the positioning exactly right. The fit is quite precise, so 1/4mm off on the angle and it will run off the side of the glass at the bottom. I ended up using a piece of tape on the top surface of the film at both the top and bottom to help in both lifting it to remove dust particles and to get the positioning just right.

It's a dry application, which makes it less dangerous as far as getting liquid in the phone, but you can't slide the film around to position it.

The end result though is well worth the 10-15 minutes of effort it took me. It's probably as close to the original glass look and feel as is possible.
[Vibrant Accessories] DKYang:
I took an advice from another user here saying to run hot water in the bathroom so that it will be filled with steam and result in less dust in the air. I did just that. Took a shower and then immediately started to apply the screen protector. Took me two tries. Make sure to have scotch tape ready so you could peel it off if you messed up.
[Vibrant Accessories] talltexan:
Probably want to keep the tape out of the bathroom when your taking the shower to ensure the proper adhesiveness.
[Vibrant Accessories] Dekman:
iShieldz look like Zagg lite, they feel like Zagg kinda sticky and after a few weeks they make the screen look like crap.
[Vibrant Accessories] YepMan68:
My vote is for Realook...

Just be patient and do it in a place where you are not going to be disturbed for the few minutes it will take to get it on perfectly. Doesn't even look or feel like it's there. You'll love it and you get two for the price.
[Vibrant Accessories] rshemeld:
real look it looks amazing and very easy to install ... :D
[Vibrant Accessories] dex1701:
I use Realook and didn't find it to be terribly hard to install. It's the best looking I've ever seen and it's smooth, so there's no finger friction on the touch screen, which is a requirement for me (Swype user). If I were going to do it all over again I'd definitely go with the Realook again. I can't imagine anything better.
[Vibrant Accessories] disturkis4u:
I somehow got a nasty scratch on my realook today. I really don't know how. But I want to cry lol better that than my phone I guess
[Vibrant Accessories] s15274n:
I just re-ordered the reallook sp's (2 pack). Anyone want to split the cost?
[Vibrant Accessories] disturkis4u:
Yes please
[Vibrant Accessories] defconoi:
wow I ordered a realook screen protector, amazon said a delivery date on the 20th, I got it 2 days after I ordered it. It was hard as hell to install, I got dirt and fingerprints all over my first one, then I tried the other, took my time, had allot of dust on the screen causing bubbles, got some scotch tape and slid it under neath and took off the lint all over it after I washed it with water, sqeegeed it on, it was tedious but it doesnt look like I even have one on it, freakn amazing, next time i put one on it'll be much easier. First time took a while lol
[Vibrant Accessories] dublj:
Realook suggests to spray some water in the area that you are going to apply the SP to cut down on dust. I sat under a ceiling fan, on low, when I put mine on. Just take your time when applying it and you will be happy with it. I am with mine .
[G1 General] johoro:
This is a bit of an embarrassing first post on these forums, but I've been reading here for quite a while. I've been running CM6.0 beautifully on my G1 for a few days now, but tonight I found my way to a thread containing instructions to push a new build.prop file in an effort to make protected apps show up in the market. Unfortunately I got waaaaaayyy ahead of myself, and without backing anything up I went ahead with the task, and only realised afterwards that the build.prop file I pushed was for a Nexus! :(

Any chance someone would be kind enough to point me in the direction of a CM6.0 build.prop file for a G1?

Many thanks!

EDIT: nevermind! in yet another bout of idiocy for the night, I never thought to just grab a copy from the ROM zip file. One day I'll learn. Maybe.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] nGm@ze:
Just today i accidentally dropped HTC Touch Pro on solid concrete and the phone got scratched badly. However the scratched area can be easily replaced as it only the area on the battery cover and I'm a guy how really cares about my own phone so i just want to ask where can i get a replacement that is cheap worth replacing and safe because i wont invest anywhere over $20USD to repair visual damages or else it isnt really worth it. Just want some suggestions. And also if you guy don't mine recommend a new protection case as i think the htc leather case that comes with it doesnt provide enough protection because when i drop it the case was slipped on but still gets scratched. Thanks in advanced

Project Title: Heimdall (and JTAG Research)

Project Description:

Heimdall is an open-source, cross-platform replacement for Odin. It is currently in alpha and is in need of testing. For more detailed information refer to the Heimdall thread.

I'm also interested in doing some JTAG research that will hopefully help bring "fully bricked" phones back to life.

Device Requirements:

Any Galaxy S (or derivative) phone in any state what-so-ever.

Location:

Melbourne, Australia

Extra Information:

I'm good with being lent or donated devices. I'm also happy to return donated devices if I'm able to fix them.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andrewluecke:
It might be worth also having "qualifications" as one of the things. Because otherwise, even 10 year olds can request phones...

I am concerned about the liability statement though honestly.. I live in Melbourne, but I am concerned that there isn't a reasonable expectation that the mobile will be working when it is returned (but yes, I'd love to see Heimdell succeed). Also, there isn't any clauses which ensure that provide leverage for mobile's to be returned.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
I don't think it should be up to me to decide who is qualified. However I will add something to the original thread that makes it clear it is the donators choice as to who they donate to (I'm not going to automatically assign phones to people).

Lending

--- Donator Application ---

Donation Type: Lending

Phone Type:Samsung Galaxy S i9000 european version

Phone Status:

Stuck in boot loop. Never had access to 3-button download mode... even tried the oven!

Location: Country : Mexico State: Chihuahua City: Juarez

Developer Requirements:

If the device gets fixed I would like it returned.

Extra Information: The device was flashed with AT&T Rom
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
celtichazard will be lending me his bricked phone so that I can perform some JTAG research into unbricking Galaxy S phones.

If anyone is interested in this research and would like to donate to help cover the cost of shipping, JTAG adapters, wires, components, solder etc. that would be very much appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jjwa:
The Junkheap sounds like a really good idea :).

The JTAG research you are talking about; I have no clue what it is. Is it also related to your Heimdall project? Because that did sound interesting.

Also, I checked out your website at the donate link, and the subjects are so horribly technical, I have no clue what that is about either. So I guess it must be really low-level high-tech ^^.

Edit: donated a little bit. Heimdall could potentially be very practical for all of us :).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
First of all, thank you very much for the donation.

The research that I'll be doing with celtichazard's phone is in regards to finding a way to unbrick any bricked Galaxy S phone. The research is not immediately related to Heimdall. However, if I do manage to work out how to unbrick a phone it will definitely be beneficial for everyone. It will also have a positive effect on the development of Heimdall, as it will allow me to try more experimental functionality without worrying about having to send my phone off to the UK for repair if something goes wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dagentooboy:
Project Title: JTAG

Project Description:

Trying to figure out a way to unbrick "fully bricked" phones.

Device Requirements:

Any Galaxy S (or derivative) phone in a "fully bricked" state.

Also a fully working one would be nice so I can dump the bootloader.

Location:

Madrid, Spain

Extra Information:

JTAG can bring a bricked phone back to life. If I figure out how to make this work your phone will be fully working. If not then it will still be bricked. :D I would be willing to return the phone in whatever state it is in when I am done. If you are in the United States a USPS flat rate priority mail box to me is $15. If you have a device that you want to ship let me know and if I need it I will pay for shipping one way.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
I only just realised you edited your post.

The liability statement is mostly in place to ensure developers aren't held responsible for damage (which may or may not have been their fault) or postage related issues.

I understand your concerns in regards to having the device returned, but quite simply there is absolutely no way to enforce such a policy. International law is largely a myth so attempting to enforce any such clause would be near impossible. If you're donating to someone within the same country then you certainly could write-up a contract. I'm not a lawyer, but if a donator wants to organise such a contract with a developer then they're certainly free to do so.

The best thing you can do is to make sure you donate to a reasonably well known developer. If the person you're donating to has a reputation to uphold then you've definitely got some leverage if things get nasty.

Regardless I sincerely hope that we won't see that sort of situation here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
dagentooboy is still looking for someone to donate or lend him a phone. His JTAG research is similar to the work I'll be doing and is extremely important. The more people we have working on it the more likely we'll come across a fix.

If someone has a bricked phone they are willing to donate/lend that would be fantastic.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] neldar:
I suggest to link the developer requests and the donator offers in the first post.

This should help to get a faster overview what is needed/offered.

The link to each post is in the upper right corner of each post.

And i would suggest to use this junkheap for all SGS phones (captivate, vibrant, epic 4g, fascinate & i9000), because most of rom/kernel mods could easily be ported to all sgs phones and development would be faster if developers could have access to all sgs phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
Great idea, I just finished updating the first post.

Yeah all phones are accepted depending on what particular developers are after. However thus-far I believe myself and dagentooboy have been willing to accept any SGS phone (including derivatives).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dagentooboy:
yeah any GSM galaxy s phone would be fine... if it is CDMA I won't be able to test the cell side (to make sure I didn't break it).

Project Title: UnBrickable Mod

Project Description:

An end user solution to unbricking fully bricked phones with only a wire and soldering skills

Device Requirements:

an i9000 device which can have the processor removed and not replaced.

Location:

Louisiana, USA

Extra Information:

UnBrickable Mod has been performed on the Captivate and I'd like to get this modification out to you guys in the i9000 sector. This mod allows you to flash bootloaders and not think twice. Thereby increasing development and allowing for repurposing of our phones at the end of their lives as a Ubuntu device, or similar.

This modification will be fully documented and open-source. It will help the entire community get out of a jam without any additional hardware if they have the skills to solder two points on the board. I must locate these points and it requires removal of the processor. I can return the device which will be inoperative if required.

See video for explanation of how easy it will be to unbrick with UnBrickable Mod.

The execution of a single device will allow resurrection of all others.

Project Title: Thor (an alternative to Heimdall)

Project Description:

Thor is aiming to be more stable and up-to-date.

Here is an XDA thread about it.

Here is a list of new features that I want to test:

1) ✅ Ability to flash from BL/AP/CP/CSC .tar archives directly

2) ❎ Ability do download latest firmware and flash it automatically

3) ✅ Ability to flash compressed (.lz4) files directly (newly discovered)

4) ✅ You can shut down the device from GUI immediately (no reboot)

5) ✅ PIT viewer built-in, with more accurate information

6) ✅ Ability to do NAND Erase All (actually it just erases userdata)

7) ✅ Ability to do DevInfo (information about the device: model, carrier id, region, serial code)

Device Requirements:

1) Any Samsung device with Odin v3 protocol

2) Lending only, as my parents would tell me to **** off

Location:

Obviously you don't need this.

Project: PostmarketOS, UBPorts on galaxystmd

Old device: but I have multiple. Willing to send one to device to multiple developers with experience and desire to port for proof-of-concept and/or restoring functionality to this device via mainline Linux (PMOS).

UBTouch would be a secondary effort: as it had been ported during the initial launch, but did not get migrated to the UBPorts project.

3rd effort would be porting latest Lineage, modded/optimized ROM, stripped down/optimized kernel. "One final rodeo."

1 Device per person Per Effort.

So realistically I would give each person up to three devices.

Hi i have the same problem as you have described, but all i can seem to find is how to disable it and not how to get it back.

I have looked in the windows folder under animated wallpapers and i cannot find the weather one there and i am wondering if maybe it got deleted? and if so is there anywhere that i can download a copy of the file from?
