i think he meant theme... you should not be so condescending - especially as a sr. member.

ask clarifying questions rather than be snippy with a "definition"
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajftl:
Amen
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You shouldn't assume anything based on a person's amount of post counts. The number of post counts doesn't change how a person thinks. I don't need to CLARIFY questions because I'm stating it since it is pretty obvious that it isn't a ROM.

@ajftl: You're just upset because I criticized on your thread about Angry Birds.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderdroid:
No. We need to be as condescending as possible to people that don't understand the difference between a 'rom' and a theme' and scare them out of the Developer's section. This topic does NOT belong here, and their topics don't belong here.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Then why does XDA has a successful forum and you dont?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byt3b0mb:
my only point was that even if it is the wrong section - if someone can help, then be helpful if not, then don't.

we were all new once and if someone hadn't gone beyond the normal flame and redirect then we wouldn't be here contributing or helping.

just saying, we should help first then redirect and not be rude and condescending.

Yes OP this is the wrong section for development - True, OP what you are asking is not considered a rom.

i was a sr member once and before changing my handle and i used to try to help as much as i could regardless of whether the question was in the wrong place.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Great post, but you could have flamed a little to make us laugh.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byt3b0mb:
lol...right!!! hahaha... ill do better next time!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Thats all I ask
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjegan2008:
No you do not have to be as condesending as possible. I know the difference between a rom, and a theme. I making a rom, with a whloe new gui. The reason I wanted to make the rom instead of just the theme was to test the vibrants HD graphics. The type of gui I want to make can not just be apllied by a simple visual style change. I love this fourm and I have been here for the last 3 years. This fourm has taught me alot of the knowladge about phones and rom development I know today. Im sorry I dont post much or develop anything frankly, because I just dont have the time. Please dont ever assume that because someone doesnt elaborate what they mean that their "stupid" or dont know what their talking about. Anyway, as for the rom, I have made some progress. I was wondering if anyone could help me find a couple of boot animations I could put in my rom, I was thinking one that would show Ezio behind a target and then leaping in to the air with his hidden blade and stab the person in the neck, then the next screen show the assassins creed logo and ad assassins creed rom. I have already made my gui and used an custom kernal to OC my rom to 1.2 gigaherz. Battery life is still a very big problem. Anyone have any ideas ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjegan2008:
Hey dady says, I love your pictire bro, that sould be googles logo. Lol.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byt3b0mb:
sounds awesome, hope it works out for ya! i wish i could help with boot anims but i dont know how to make them. good luck~
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tydiz:
All I gotta say is good luck hacking those .qmg files. They are what hold and run the boot sequence, and they have yet to be cracked which means you can't replace them.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egzthunder1:
The thread was moved to Q&A.

@all,

Wouldn't it be simpler to just tell the OP that what he wants to do is theme a rom and not make an actual rom, instead of a 2 page bashing?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
The OP was told this and he still wants to make a ROM.

OP, its going to be hard to get someone to help you on such a ROM, since most people probably have never played AC or are not big fans. Good luck.

[General Questions and Answers] benzocaina:
Hi,

I don't know if it's the right place to post this problem, but anyway.

I've installed this radio 0.41.30.12 a few days ago and since then I'm having huge problems with the jade, it crashes and restarts, the battery drecreases about a 50% in a day. I reinstalled the old radio (0.27.30.09), but my problems are the same despite of the hard resets.

The rom I'm using is the 2.33.721.32 pdaviet and the hard spl is the 2.32 olinex v.5, perhaps this is the problem or a corrupted file of the radio I have.

Any help will be very useful.

Many thanks guys.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
I've cracked my screen :(

Went go-karting today and got thrown around so much in the kart that the screen cracked.

So, what's the best way about getting it repaired?

Can I just send it straight back to HTC UK and get the screen replaced under warranty? My phone is rooted, but not unlocked.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
I have not returned a phone yet, but as many have stated, "it does not void your warranty to root, only to unlock the bootloader" so in theory you should just be able to send it in.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
.....except that warranty won't cover a cracked screen.. I think the going rate was $280?
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
are you insured through assurion?
[Nexus One General] peliROJO:
You broke it, you buy it.
[Nexus One General] brettcp:
I dropped my N1 on the floor in my house (stone floors) two weeks ago and cracked the glass screen.. picked up a new glass screen on ebay for $38 shipped and spent about two hours replacing it myself.. turned out perfect.. just be very patient and take your time during the replacement process.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
This is the damage, I don't think the glass is broken so is it just the LCD screen beneath that I'll need to replace?
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
No, it's the digitizer/screen. The display would be a lot more expensive to replace.
[Nexus One General] !PANDA:
Hi mate.. if the amoled still works you are fine :) yiu would just need a new digitalizer, about £20 from ebay and fix it youself.. if the amolded wkrks you need a new lcd, £45 from ebay.. i nroke my amoled, fixed it and now works.. good luck!!
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
If that's the case, then why when I power it on does nothing appear?

It vibrates when booting so I know its working?
[Nexus One General] .dan:
when i dropped my nexus one, the amoled broke, not the outer screen/digitizer. i believe the cost for a new amoled was around $85 plus shipping and it would also cost your warranty. therefore, i sent it back in for repair and it cost $115 total, warranty still intact. btw, i opted for a refurb unit instead of waiting for them to return my damaged unit.

good luck, you have to decide if its worth voiding your warranty to fix it yourself.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Sorry I missed that part.. Yeah if it's not showing anything the display has problems, although I find it odd it would break but not the digitizer.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Yeah strange isn't it, anyway, HTC are collecting it tomorrow, I'll have an estimate for repair in a few days. No idea how much it's going to be just yet.
[Nexus One General] !PANDA:
It is gonna be high! You wille get 3 options..1) fix the phone for a very high price 2) get the phone and pay around $40 for the labour and delivery 3) dispose of the phone for free by htc.. so pretty much re use the parts for another phone..

Not a sencible choice calling htc in my opinion :)
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Having searched the internets I've found reports of people having it fixed by HTC UK for between £60 - £100

Also, I was told if I didn't want them to carry out the work there would be a £20 fee to return the phone to cover postage and the engineers time.

I think you're estimates are way off, however, I'm going to wait until I get my quote or I'll be eating my words...
[Nexus One General] !PANDA:
These were the options to fix my Desire :) but then got it with the fee and fixed it my self :)
[Nexus One General] incredulous:
I'm impressed t0ph0id, I accidently got a slight scratch on my week old N1, it's small but I know it's there and I'm really upset about it.

You have properly screwed the screen and you seem ok with it :D

Wish I could be as relaxed as that haha.
[Nexus One General] Zeem:
Hey buddy i had the same issue with my desire.. cracked in a similar way, HTC quoted me £238 for screen, housing, new logic board & labour.. even asked them just to replaced the screen cos i did see anything wrong with the housing but they said they couldn't do it cos motherboard had been bent..

so just got a replacement lcd from ebay at £45, took 45mins to fit the new screen everything working correctly :)

oh and the logic board wasn't bent! cheeky HTC
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
I've already spoken my mobile insurance and they repair/replace accidental damage so I know I can go through them if it's going to cost too much.

They'll repair, replace, give an alternative if they don't have the model or give a cash equivalent.
[Nexus One General] !PANDA:
Yep haha, seems hard when yoyr trying to take it apart and not brake any bits off, but now.. soo proud of myself! Never thoughed I would ever be in my phone, sick thought, jehe :P
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Quick update.

My phone was collected by UPS last Tuesday 7th & delivered to HTC on Wednesday 8th.

Still nothing, all their tracking site says is that they've received it.

I called yesterday and they just said the same.
[Nexus One General] jsc619:
I dropped my phone when I was pulling a car on the ramp at work and ran it over. The screen was shattered as well as the amoled and the antenna cover had a big gouge in it from fall. I sent it to htc and was quoted $115 to fix just the screen. When I received it back in about a week the screen was as good as new and the antenna cover was replaced and the trackball was brand new. So I consider my experience with htc to be a good one.
[Nexus One General] willzz:
I broke my amoled and main board HTC fixed it for the price of the screen $115
[Nexus One General] lbcoder:
Just to clarify, it DOES NOT VOID YOUR WARRANTY TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER! That was just an FAQ that suggested so, and that was just to make it simple for the morons who can't comprehend the difference between hardware and software. Unlocking the boot loader does precisely ONE THING: accepts full responsibility for SOFTWARE SUPPORT. In other words, if you unlock the bootloader and install some system image that won't boot, you can't send it back to be reprogrammed. If you unlock the bootloader and the trackball falls out, you CAN send it back in to have the trackball replaced.

I REALLY wish that people would stop spreading this B.S. about unlocking.
[Nexus One General] nachod0g:
Maybe you should start with yourself buddy? Regardless of peoples personal experiences, the screen shown when you go to unlock your bootloader makes it pretty clear that it will void your warranty. It's HTC's choice if they want to still honor it.
[Nexus One General] mrcrassic:
They might not honor the swapping option since there is wear-and-tear damage to it. However, they will honor repair warranty, though you will be out of a phone for two weeks.
[Nexus One General] deeren:
my friend, you are the one talking b.s. unlocking the bootloader is only about software support????? what if i decide to install a custom kernel , overlock it to the point that my motherboard gets damaged???? is it only software???? what if i decide to update my radio through recovery and, i accidently brick my device??? is it still software????

the reason i am replying to this thread is that htc refused to repair my faulty power button just because of the unlocked bootloader. Surprisingly they told me that they didnt need any receipt or warranty papers cause the phone was less than 1 yr old ( i actually bought on ebay) but they didnt honour it because of the bootloader. i am not the only one and i know that a lot of users have not been lucky too. Just because some of us have been lucky doesnt mean that unlocked bootloaders will not void ur warranty. at the end of the day , it all depends if you are lucky enough to get a kind and understandable person at the other line of the phone.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
£105 all in. Could have been a lot worse, yet to find out if it will be replaced with AMOLED so S-LCD though.
[Nexus One General] elusivejackal:
Anyone willing to sell their broken Nexus One

I killed my Nexus One, replaced the display, but it turns out I need to replace the lower board as well. Anyone have a broken Nexus One they're willing to part with?

BTW, I don't care about the condition of the display, or outside shell.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Here's the breakdown

A20 Level 4 - Average Repair £22.79

A30 Level 2 - LCD replacement (& Athena Micro Drive replacement only) £40.37

S27 One Way Freight Charges (UK) £8.64

S29 Labour £18.00

Subtotal £89.80

VAT(17.5%) £15.72

Balance Due £105.52

Not sure what the first line means, will call them on Monday and ask.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Still not got it back, this is taking a while...
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Since repairing my phone on Friday it went to quality control for testing, which it failed.

It's since been back for repair and re-testing again, you can keep track of this on their online tracking site.

I rang and spoke to Chris Kent who funinly enough I'd spoken to previous on 15th September, when he said he'd email me if there were any status updates, he never has.

Since it's now over the 15 days turnaround time I've asked for a refund for the repairs, he's going to escalate it and has promised to ring me back on Friday at 1pm, I don't expect he will and I doubt I'll get a refund, but it's worth a try.
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
It's due to be shipped back to me ASAP!

May get it tomorrow of Monday, we'll see...

[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Looks like you didn't get charged for the initial inspection by the engineer, lucky dab!
[Nexus One General] starfarer:
well yours (invoice) too is without initial inspection charge..no?? I don't think they charge you for inspection. The charge is only if you decide to not continue with repair.

So..how was the repaired phone? SLCD?? :-)
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
Level 4 - Average repair is the initial inspection, I rang up to check.

No SLCD for me, still go AMOLED, they've just replaced it with the same as the original.

[Droid 2 General] OneStepAhead:
Just got off the phone with Verizon ordering a Droid 2. The rep told me the Droid 2 is Verizon's first 4G phone. She said they currently have 4G in 35 markets. I cant find anything about that anywhere online, so I called back and asked another rep and he again confirmed that the Droid 2 is their first 4G phone. Anyone heard about the Droid 2 supporting 4G?

edit: 2 out of 3 sales reps told me the Droid 2 was 4g. 3rd rep denied it, Customer service and Tech Support both denied it. Although the customer service rep did tell me she thought all of the phones would support 4g "Otherwise all of our customers would have to buy new phones when we roll out 4g". :D Uh, yeah, i think thats the point! I corrected her on the matter, and she then did some more reading and confirmed that 3G phones will not magically work on 4G. I hate it when you know more about a persons job then they do! If I sold phones I would know everything about the phones we sold.
[Droid 2 General] Varking:
Verizon does not have 4g available in 35 markets, and the Droid 2 is not 4g capable. According to DroidForums and BGR among other sources, Verizon will start rolling out true 4g around Black Friday with the first 4g phones to follow shortly after.
[Droid 2 General] OneStepAhead:
I am under that impression as well. But why are 2 different reps telling me this? Clearly either they are misinformed, or it's some super secret feature of the Droid 2. You would think if it was true they would be marketing the hell out of it. I'm going to call again when they open and see if I can talk to someone higher up. If its not true they absolutely should not be telling customers the phone supports it. She clear as day said "The Droid 2 is our first 4g phone".
[Droid 2 General] sliderocket22:
As far as I know, Sprint is the only carrier with 4G at the moment. Verizon is currently testing their 4G, as is AT&T, while T-Mobile is touting its HSPA+ 3G network as having "4G Speeds". If Verizon launched the Droid 2 and it had 4G radios in it, I'm sure we'd know from them or the FCC. Those reps more than likely had no idea what they were talking about, it's just interesting you got the same answer from two different people. Out of curiosity, I think I'll call Verizon and ask them the same question.
[Droid 2 General] OneStepAhead:
Yes please do and let me know what they tell you. Next time I call I'm going to record the call and post it online :D

Im on the phone with them right now. Customer Service knows nothing about it apparently. It's the sales department that's telling people this. I'm being transferred to tech support now. Apparently this is absolutely not true (I assumed that). I'm going to call Sales again and see if I can get a 3rd rep to tell me the Droid 2 is the first 4g phone :D

edit: 3rd sales rep said the Droid 2 is not 4g. Interesting. Apparently they have different playbooks. I should call customer service and see if they can track down who took my order for the Droid 2 and give them a spanking. It was the first feature she mentioned! "The Droid 2 is our first 4g phone, we currently have 4G service in 35 markets". Naughty naughty verizon!
[Droid 2 General] sliderocket22:
Yeah, whoever you talked to is either extremely misinformed, or just full of it. I called and talked to a rep today and said I was told that my Droid 2 I bought was a 4G phone and asked if my DInc that I'm currently on was too. He laughed and said Verizon doesn't have any 4G phones yet, because they don't even have 4G service so unfortunately I'm stuck on 3G for now. Silly telesales reps.

Hi there

I'm looking around for a decent app, which allows me to use my phone as an input device for Windows. A program which adapts to the currently activated program on the pc by showing an array of keys for shortcut functions.

Pretty much like the "Optimus Aux keyboard" of artlebedev (Sorry, can't post link)

Or: Imagine a toolbar, adapting to the task you wish to do.

Does anyone know if similar apps already exists?
