Hi All,

I am in the process of creating a update.zip to release to make some changes to the 2.2 OTA Rooted Leak. I was wondering if anyone knew the location where the default launcher is set (like an xml). Such as the actual settings file not the menu setting.

Also on this topic does anyone know where the actual settings to ADW are stored?

Thanks!

there is no way it can be optical, even a photo amateur will know that.

yes there is digital zoom feature included
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davanw:
right. so how do i zoom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guibao:
Use the volume buttons.

You don't have to tell me that. Thankfully I don't rely on my camera for high quality images.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
ohh you'll be surprised with our build in camera

it has auto focus, shaky hands control (IS), and lots and lots of other features

and if that is not enough, you can also use 3rd party professional photo camera software, results are even more amazing.

there as a side by side comparison in a topic forum

but i forgot the tittle

I'm actually a hobby photographer. The cell phone cam does indeed have many great features... but such a small sensor in a phone + plastic optics will never be on-par with a real camera, even one with less megapixels.

yup for real photos i use my Cannon (model #) IS... damn having a mental lapse, can't remember a lot of anything :p

Hi members!

I want to know if i can update my htc magic radio?

Cause I flashed it with CM6, but my radio signal is worse than it was on cm5.0.8.

Some details:

Sapphire PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0004 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

Radio-2.22.19.26I

Apr 9 2009,23:30:40

I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find anything about update radio's.

There is this tool, but it only has 32A radio's so that made me confused and unsure if i should use it.

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
On Magic 32B there are only two recommended radios:

2.22.19.26l

2.22.23.02

I'm pretty sure I used to be on 26i, but now I show that I'm on 23.02, even though I unrooted. Is it possible that one of the ROMs I flashed along the way updated my radio?

Is the 2.22.23.02 radio the most current version? I'm super confused now.

This has been bothering me for the longest time and I just can't figure it out. Hopefully someone else can shed some light.

I use k9 email with my webmail through network solutions. I have it set to never delete messages when I receive them, only when I remove them from either inbox. This is so that I can get them on both my phone and laptop. Well I constantly have new email reminders popping up, but when email is opened, it is emails that I have already read, usually older than a week.

Anyone else run into this problem and is there any way to fix i?. This is very annoying. As far as I can remember, this behavior was the same with the default mail app as well.

Thanks in advance.

Excellent post.

The OP claims that it is a Broadcom chip driver issue.

One of the responder suggested this work around:
[Captivate General] TheSopranos16:
This was very helpful. Thanks for sharing it with us. I tried using AT&T Maps before and after I got a fix, I opened google maps. It was able to track me with reasonable accuracy for my 10 minute drive after that. I'm not sure if AT&T Navigator will work any better, but I'm certainly impressed with the results I've gotten so far.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
So does this mean that it will be accurate, and not show you driving in a field?

If so, for how long? Need to do this every time you use the GPS?

Hmmm. But what about those of us that have cleaned out the ATT bloatware?

Is it worth reinstalling?

[Hero CDMA General] Eric_1966_FXE:
Hi people,

I am a noob as far as Android goes, but I am pretty good at PC stuff. I run a 3D CAD department and I've been the "unofficial" tech guy at every job I've had in the last 10 years.

That being said, I just got the HTC Hero from Sprint last weekend, Android 2.1, update 1. I have always wanted to play with Linux but have never really had the time. So, this is my first encounter with Android or Linux.

So ..... , as much as I'd love to root the phone, I'm afraid to brick it. Is there any way to get rid of all the bloatware without rooting my phone? Also, what are the chances of bricking the phone? I've read a couple "how to root" articles on the net and it doesn't seem like it would be that hard, but I LOVE this phone so far (other than battery life) and I honestly can't afford to go buy a new one at full price if I end up killing my phone.

Another question; I've seen a few people in other posts who have the HTC Hero and say they're running 2.2. How is this done? Is this something else that I would need to root the phone to accomplish?

Also, I just ordered an 8GB microSD card. My laptop has a card slot, so I'm figuring I can put the new card in the slot, connect my phone via USB, and copy everything on the phone to the new 8GB card, then just swapping the cards.

Am I correct thinking this should be as simple as it sounds, or is there more involved?

I appreciate you taking the time to read my post, and I look forward to reading/posting here on a regular basis.

Thanks,

Eric Mortenson
[Hero CDMA General] chromiumleaf:
Hey, welcome to XDA!

It is VERY HARD to brick this phone, so don't worry....about the only way we've seen that is by flashing a GSM radio to it, so just don't do that and you'll be fine trying anything else.

There are a couple rooting methods here, and there won't be any problems at all as long as you follow the instructions. It's not as daunting as it may first seem. You do have to root to get rid of bloatware, it can't be done without rooting. I recommend this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694572 although there are 'one-click' and 'universal' methods out there too.

The ones running Android 2.2 are doing it through a custom ROM called Cyanogenmod. Check out the Development section to find it. It doesn't have the HTC Sense UI though, so it will look and feel different than your stock 2.1. But lots of people here are using it and loving it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755795

And yes, you should just be able to swap out the SD cards with no problems.
[Hero CDMA General] Eric_1966_FXE:
chromiumleaf

Thanks for the quick and helpful reply. It is greatly appreciated.

I think I am going to try to root my phone. Pre-installed "bloatware" on PCs is one of my biggest pet peeves. So, the biggest reason I have right now for rooting my phone is to get rid of the stuff I don't want/need/use.

I will probably leave the 2.1 on the phone because I love the phone so far and if as you say, it will look and feel different. Maybe I'll keep digging through the site and change my mind later. Thanks for the "heads up".

Please do me one favor, and I hate to sound ignorant (I did say earlier I was new at this), but what does "flashing a GSM radio to it" mean, and is it something I could do my mistake?

Sorry, tried doing a search so I wouldn't have to bother you but I'm just not sure.

Thanks again.

[Hero CDMA General] oldjackbob:
To "flash" some code means to burn it into your phone's read-only memory. A number of things can be flashed to your phone's memory, including the radio operating code, high-level operating system code, and "kernel" (system "core") code.

What the poster meant by "flashing a GSM radio" is "downloading the code that operates the phone's radio". Our Sprint Hero phones have what is called CDMA radio hardware, while European Hero phones have GSM radio hardware. The two different radios are not compatible with each other's operating code. So if you ever download ("flash") the wrong radio code (GSM code) into your CDMA phone, that will render your radio inoperative, which will effectively brick your phone.

With that in mind, just read carefully any information relating to any system code you're considering flashing to your phone, and make SURE it's for a CDMA phone, and you'll be fine.
[Hero CDMA General] unCoRrUpTeD:
I loved sense and was all against even trying an aosp rom( vanilla/ stock android), but once I flashed CM6 and found beautiful widgets and launcher pro plus and dialer one I haven't looked back. The speed of my phone and the overall appearance is far better than Sense UI. Rooting the 2.1 is far easier than it was when I got mine. You had to download and type in a whole bunch of crap, now its as easy as installing an app and running it.
[Hero CDMA General] Eric_1966_FXE:
Thanks

Thank you to all three of you for your quick (and more importantly useful) answers.

You guys are awesome.
[Hero CDMA General] Mac11700:
Go for it

I have 4 Hero's here at my home on a family plan,and mine is the only one running CM6-RC1 and they are all jealous. Every one that has a Hero at work or a different Android running 2.1 that has seen mine including a few Evo users loves the way mine looks and how fast it is. I thought in the beginning I wouldn't want to loose Sense and feared I would brick my phone as well,but these guys here are great and are a very supportive Hero community and walked me through the process. It is a lot easier now with the universal 1 click method than before,so that was what I did. The nice thing is if you do everything correctly,you can revert right back to you stock phone if you ever have to take it in for service.

Taking your time and researching all of this pretty good before deciding what to do is a good thing,but I can honestly say, there is so much more you can do once you unlock your phone than just downloading apps and bloat ware...you can actually make it work and do what you want it to do.

The chiefs here at XDA are working hard to bring us stable working Roms for everyday use,and I tip my hat to all of them and I certainly am loving how my Hero is now compared to what it was when it was stock.The RC-1 build I am running is awesome and (knock wood) haven't crashed 1x with it where I needed to do anything nor have I had any shutdowns or unexpected forced closed programs that were installed correctly.

So I say... Don't be afraid and just go for it.. you can still have it similar to what it is now,or you can see what aosp is all about like many here have and try it.That's the beauty of Rooting...

YOU

have the choice of what is on your phone..not someone else.

Good Luck

[Hero CDMA General] Eric_1966_FXE:

HTC Desire

bought 2 weeks ago from mobiles.co.uk on the Orange network (dolphin)

So, I've applied god knows how many updates, downgrades, "fixes", flashes and sdcard updates to try and get my phone screen back, to no avail.

I originally followed some guide on XD about installing custom Froyo ROM, Open Desire, and a few other bits to downgrade the ROM and root. Since then spent hours following all the various fixes on here, to no avail.

Need urgent support please to get my screen back.

No idea what is in the phone now so expert guidance welcome to debug my specific circumstances. Links to threads simply are not working for me. Need to start from the beginning and figure out what is in my phone in terms of S/W versions, and move forward.

i needed some much needed help with installing diniks new rom , here is what i know how to do so far. I downloaded the file and copied it to my sd card , then i made a new folder on my sd card and copied the rom to it , thats as far as i can get. Im guessing the part where i need help is where is says Create a folder on your SDCard with name Autoinstall and place all your CABs & XMLs there, after flashing, your CABs and XMLs will be autoinstalled.

I donot understand when it says place your cabs and XMLs after flashing into the autoinstall folder . What is cabs and xmls and flash . I have read the directions but is says nothing about what all this is so i would appericate it if someone could help me ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miller710:
Auto install is for installing games, apps and mods. you put the cab file that goes with the game or app or mod into the folder and toms autoinstaller will install it during the flash of a rom. As long as that rom supports autoinstaller. It is not nessesary to auto install anything if yo do not wish. If you are just trying to flash a rom the autoinstaller is not needed. But you will only get the customization that comes with the rom.

If I missed anything could some one fill in the blanks. I may not be that good at explaining things.
