[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ambegojapes:
the xdandroid port featuring froyo is the best there is atm, nothing else. You can overclock to get "perfection" if you think thats something you are allowed to say. Fact of the matter is that you arent developing these port, nor are you contributing in any way shape or form. If you are looking for a smooth android experience go get an android phone, if you want novelty and pioneering then stick to your TP2 and install xdandroid and stop arguing with other members on this forum.

As for all the questions you asked in the post I quoted, there is a search button you could use so that you dont have to start useless threads.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] manekineko:
What makes you say it's better than Neopeek's? A lot of users say that with the use of the Linux partitioning, that build runs much faster.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ambegojapes:
I personally have tried them both and I just like xdandroid posted by reefer better, so I guess I should have said " in my opinion" rather than just "atm". my bad. I just hate it when people come into forums just to ask questions and to belittle the developers work and not search first themselves. Usually those are the people that are here solely to freeload and not even help with troubleshooting other members problems or post experiences.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] outlawbiker:
this is actually my 10th or more install of prj android froyo and this time for some weird reason it is faster.

yes i did format the sd card the long way, i used gparted live cd as well because i had to set it up for neopeek in 2 partitions . i have two sd cards at 2 and 4 gigs (i swap between) that i just decided to keep a 512mb partition in ext2 for projects like neopeek on both of them.

regardless this time around is giving me a faster experience on froyo, and i didnt edit change anything,just the common install with a soft restart as usual.i am using the blazn overclock i believe it is 716 or 768 mhz.

and of coarse i will keep you posted on any changes or fixes i find.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] outlawbiker:
what is it with you people, didn't mommy and daddy love you enough as a child and teach you if you dont have anything good to say then dont say it all. who is belittling developers? i didnt come in here saying i think some one from this project or that is retarded,as a matter of fact i am grateful for the work these people have done and your trying to belittle me. im explaining what issues im having between different projects and jerks like you are trying to make me look like the bad guy.so comon down from your high horse and actually read what im talking about instead of jumping of the handle and making your self look like a complete jackass. yet once again, you miss the point. if i wanted an android phone i would of got one from the beginning ,i got a tp2 obviously to play around with android,see what it can do,what i can do to it and other reasons. ive got a few dev tools to create software for android i would like to use, so im asking questions, and if you sat a computer for as long as i have researching this with 30 or more tabs open trying to take notes from other threads,you'd be sick of reading all this other crap and post your own experiences/questions too.

and im a little well wiser than to keep stroking your ego,because people like you starve for the attention,otherwise you wouldnt jump into this thread to post your snotty ass comments.so if you wanna keep talking crap instead of offering something insightful to say,go ahead,cause im done dealing with **** heads like you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] linuxgeek88:
Well another thread where you all jump on someone and make him look like an asshole for asking questions. How can you help people when you treat them like ****? I've been working with Linux and Android for a while now and I bet half of you write code that looks like a kid scribbling on the back of a McDonald´s napkin. I tell you what.. Treat people better and you just might have more people to aid in the projects and to the functionally quality. I have been messing with Linux and the open source development scene for years and this is a joke. Like a bunch of kids with computers and a power trip but on the same token you all write code like old people ****
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ambegojapes:
Not a dickhead. Just use the damn search button before you start threads that aren't needed and asking questions that have been answered. Had you really done research and or really tried any of the software you would have found out the answer to all these questions already. What is offered is offered and if you haven't found it, starting a new thread will not bring it to light for you.

$3 that you will still somehow respond to this.

Also stop editing your old posts :D

By the way, my mother and father loved me very much growing up. Thank you very much!

This it outta hand. Can we get a lock mods? C'mon guys. I mean this is _the_ internet. We wouldn't want to ruin it's reputation!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kosmarnik:
IIRC Eclair build I used seemed way smoother for me too. I should try both but argh barely found the time to play with Froyo.

The weird thing is that Froyo(OC'd to ~700) is lagging in the most basic things like on screen keyboard making it hard to write anything and just clicking icons is hit and miss, but is at least 5x faster in 3d (some game, when started on the eclair build I used run so sloooow that I first though it just crashed).

Ah IDK this thread is getting weird.

I'm sure that I could get it to work better, but just can't find the time to sort through all the threads.

Using the Blazin build is kinda frustrating as it's (almost) feature complete, but still not there.

One just has to wait it out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] RickoT:
You know... im not typically one to chime in on something like this, I may not be a major contributor or a mod on these forums, I brought joshkoss to the forums who has become one of the best chef's here which is probably my only big contribution... but seriously... I remember when I first came to xda 5 years ago, how chill the community was and how everyone was so helpful. It really makes me sad that lately I've seen so many people flamed for asking questions, one liners like "Search and you shal find" or completely hopping on someone for asking a valid question or for some advice. Just because someone is asking, doesnt mean that they didnt try to do the research, but sometimes (Myself incldued) you cant find the answer you are looking for even amongst a few 800 page threads.

I have seriously gotten to the point where I dont want to ask questions here because I dont want to deal with the hassle of the elites on this forum. I read in hopes I find an answer, and if I dont, then I take the risk of hoping im doing it right.

The devs rock the house, and I appreciate everything that they do for the community, but the few folks that seem to forget that they were once the same people they are flaming here every day make me sad.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] joshkoss:
hey guys and gals,

yea rick i couldn't have said it better.

@Peeps that flame,

try relaxing and not saying anything unless it's worth it. Seriously the forums would be a happier place.

@those that contribute,

Thanks for helping...

Peace,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whopper_g:
Hi everyone,

ive got the folliwing problem.

My Setup:

i got an HD2 (WM 6.5.3 Ver 5.2.23576; Radio 2.07.51.22_2). I use my incar audio system to hook up the phone via a 3,5 headphone jack to my soundsystem.

So everything works fine except when i make or get an call.

The Caller or the called party is hearing themselves twice (an no, i dont put my audio system volume to max ;-))

I think its an software issue, as when i make a call over the phone internal speaker (handsfree) there is no such problem.

btw before the hd2 i had an iPhone with the same setup and there where no such problems.

so is anyone aware of an hix for this?
[EVO 4G Accessories] 5oo:
i have question which card is better to keep for evo 4g.

samsung 8gb sdhc class 2 or Adata 8gb hc class 6?

thx
[EVO 4G Accessories] skydeaner:
adata makes excellent quality memory modules of all types, it will obliterate the samsung class 2 in every possible way
[EVO 4G Accessories] 5oo:
ok cool thanks
[EVO 4G Accessories] ninjei:
Not only is Adata a reliable brand but if you look at the class, it's faster too. That's assuming you meant sdhc, not "hc". Make sure you read correctly. "hc" is not a type of card. Don't get scammed.
[EVO 4G Accessories] 5oo:
oh ok yes sdhc is that Adata card,

cuz i just bought new htc evo 4g and they give u 8gb samasung card so i was wondering which card is better,,

thank you
[EVO 4G Accessories] Rydah:
Is there a difference between the Samsung memory card that ships and a class 2 micro Sandisk 8 gb hc?
[EVO 4G Accessories] 5oo:
No its same cuz both are class 2 different is just brand..both r sdhc
[EVO 4G Accessories] jerryparid:
Yes there is, I've benchmarked both (2x 8GB Samsung from HTC, 1x 8GB Sandisk from HTC, 2x 8GB Sandisk not from HTC). They are both crap in terms of write speed (HTC bought the cheapest batch from both companies, the 8GB cards that you buy from retailers can reach 10-14mb/s write speed. Apparently certain batches of Sandisk 8GB class 2 have crazy write speeds), but Sandisk reads much much faster.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikeIII:
I tried to do a search for this but couldn't find an answer specific to the EVO. My friend just received an EVO, can I root before he activates the device? I don't see it being a problem but just wanted to make sure. TIA.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Monkey:
Yup. I just did the same thing. The only thing you need to remember is that if it is using any internet sites (I had to use a Java site) you'll need to turn your wifi on.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikeIII:
sounds good. thanks for your reply.
[Streak 5 General] digthemlows:
I can recreate this every time. Call someone that wont answer so it goes to their voice mail, once it starts ringing set it to speaker phone and once I do I cannot disconnect the call. The screen doesn't work.....the only way to stop it is to shut off or take the battery out............anyone else have this?? Any ideas?

Stock 1.6 on US Dell

not rooted.......
[Streak 5 General] pappyfire:
I tried several times to both AT&T and Vzw, worked perfect for me, call disconnected everytime.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
I saw you can do it through Amon_RA and apparently there is an option in CWM but it doesn't work. Is there any other way to do it? Also what are the advantages? Does it make the SDcard less cluttered?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kappo9000:
I think it is so you can use app2sd and put your apps there. For someone on an incredible, I can't imagine why you would want to do it since you have so much internal memory. I actually prefer for as much as possible to be on the phone and just leave my music, pics, etc on my SD card.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
it appears to me that all my stuff is on the SD, and I am not partition or using apps2sd. The phone is about empty and my 2gb SD was full. I ordered and 8gb....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
If I install Amon_RA simply to partition my drive, can I reinstall CWM? I cannot find CWM except for the one built into UnrEVOked. I like Rom Manager...
[Android Themes] matty2phatty:
Hello! I've been looking for an 8Bit-style icon pack, something that looks like pixely, NES games, but with icons portraying basic icons (phone, mms, browser, mail, etc). I've searched here, looked all over google, deviant art, and such and haven't found anything =\

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks! :)
[Android Themes] illconn:
I so would want this too!

Scott Pilgrim!!! lol
[Android Themes] LudoAnders:
Search for "Arcade Daze" icons, I think those will fulfill your needs
[Android Themes] zHk3R:

haha lol :D yes, yes it will :p
[Android Themes] matty2phatty:
Yes! That was perfect thank you! Funny thing is, I actually saw that before posting and dismissed it as strictly mario icons and such :p
[Android Themes] AgentBEATS:
Lol that is exactly what I was thinking. This would work so well with a Scott Pilgrim theme.
[Android Themes] E_man5112:
anyone with a link. Search didn't find it for me :(

[Fascinate Android Development] xirnibor:
Greetings all. I have a Samsung Vibrant currently. I've done several clockwork mod backups, and I'm considering going to the Verizon Fascinate. Since they are both running 2.1, will the clockwork mod recovery install my current apks/apps? If not, can someone recommend the best way for me to not loose the 170+apps I have on this current Tmobile phone? Thanks for replies.
[Fascinate Android Development] DigitalDementia:
I would suggest MyBackupPro which will back up even your text messages etc. In order to transfer the data from one phone to another you must buy the full version. If you want just your applications I would say Titanium Backup and wait until the Fascinate achieves root in just a few short days and then VIOLA! I would also recommend donating to the Dev for his awesome app and hard work, it's easily one of my favorite apps when it comes to flashing custom roms.

http://matrixrewriter.com/android/
[Fascinate Android Development] Turets:
Titanium backup
[Fascinate Android Development] sic4672:
What s/he said. I would only use this for user apps + data and not system apps. It might work with system apps, but I personally will wait for someone else to dive in before I try.
[Fascinate Android Development] wisenick:
Ya clockwork wouldn't work, it most likely would just error out but there is a chance you would brick your phone
[Vibrant General] kingrat:
Every time I try a new ROM and try to go back to my backup I made on Nandroid in Clockwork-mod regardless of when the backup was made everything works fine but find out that I can’t download anything. Gmail works, I will get notices that updates are available but it hangs at starting download.

I have tried to clear cache, use WIFI, everything else I can find but the only solution is to Odin and start all over..

Any suggestions about what I can do?

This is my first Android phone after leaving Apple - is this what I should expect?
[Vibrant General] kingrat:
anyone? any ideas?
[Vibrant General] BossDj:
From one novice to another, have you tried uninstalling the market from the stock application screen? Not titanium backup or rom manager, but uninstalling the market from your stock applications is safe, all it does is remove your temp market files, not the app, you simply launch again, accept the tos again, and you're back in, hope this helps.
[Captivate General] fooldog01:
What are the odds that your location issues are from the faulty GPS drivers and will be fixed in the forthcoming firmware update?
[Captivate General] mindfrost82:
CoPilot's maps are the worst. They use their own data instead of using Navteq or TeleAtlas and their maps are atleast 5 years out of date in my area.

So far, I haven't found a standalone GPS app I like in Android either.
[Captivate General] smokestack76:
I like and use waze all the time. Doesnt work too well with the crap gps on here but on winmo it was the best app.
[Captivate General] nammyczc:
I used the stock samsung one that comes on the european roms that works pretty well
[Captivate General] 8525Smart:
Almost none, I'd say.

Unlike many here, I haven't experienced any GPS issues with my Captivate. Lock-on speeds are fairly quick (it seems comparable to what I experienced on the iPhone and HTC Fuze) and the GPS fix remains in all applicable areas and not in others (bridges, forest, etc). Aside from all of that, The problem doesn't appear nearly as much with Google Navigator.

If that's the case, I wished I had tried Waze back when I had owned a WinMo phone, but the problem was that WinMo had fantastic GPS solutions, so I didn't bother using the less well known brands.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
I would love an "offline" GPS App. Whatever happened to Navigon USA?
[Captivate General] mindfrost82:
Waze is still an online solution like Google Navigation. It downloads the maps and data as you drive, so if you go out of coverage, you're stuck, unless it cached enough of the map to still work with no signal.
[Captivate General] smokestack76:
Thats why i like waze. Even in areas that i have no reception it still works ok. And still works ok with the crap gps on the captivate for now. So all good with me :) And i drive a truck so i use it alot. So far no issues that were too bad :rolleyes:
[Captivate General] kelavine:
I've been using Sygic Mobile Maps for about a month so far. It is an "off-line" Nav App.

I like it so far, was just up in Canada, on the north side of Lake Superior, with no cell/data service and it worked great. Has a pretty good POI database. Even allows you to navigate to Contacts.
[Captivate General] ozone777:
Navigon for Android

Navigon actually makes an Android version now.

Not sure if they have any US maps for it yet though.
[Captivate General] ozone777:
Video of Sygic

Found a video of Sygic Mobile Maps 10 running on a Galaxy S phone.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfDodvbyl2w
[Captivate General] jhernand1102:
Yeah no maps yet for the US.... hopefully soon..:rolleyes:
[Captivate General] ozone777:
NDrive for Android

NDrive also has a version for Android.

http://www.ndriveweb.com/products/product/96/

US maps are available.

Get it with a 7 day free trial from the Market Place.
[Captivate General] 8525Smart:
They don't. Aside from that, even if they did have it, the Android version of Navigon is not supported on the Captivate; the APK is available, but without a supported phone, registering appears to be impossible (as registering requires you to enter the last four digit of your phone number which then goes through Navigon's servers).

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll give it a try.
[Captivate General] myx0mop:
I also travel extensively. After trying every possible phone based GPS (iPhone, B-berry and Android), i came to the conclusion that, while some are better than the others, none of them are reliable enough to be used exclusively. So, I still carry a dedicated unit that always gets me from point A to point Z.
[Captivate General] 8525Smart:
I can understand your sentiment.

Even on the iPhone and WinMo (both of which had great GPS apps), I still felt the need to occasionally turn to Google Maps to supplement my driving. With GM plus whatever GPS app I was using, I never had trouble navigating regardless of where I was going.

Aside from that, as I said, my primary GPS software of choice is Tomtom. I'm not so sure about the other GPS companies, but Tomtom uses the same GPS software in phones as they do in their dedicated GPS units, so there really is no benefit to using their dedicated unit as opposed to their phone versions. In fact, I would actually dare claim the phone version is better due to more functionality from the integration with your phone.
[Captivate General] myx0mop:
I have TomTom on my 3Gs, but the problem is not with the software, which is fine, but with the phone that periodically loses the GPS lock.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
I've used TomTom for 3+ years on my WinMo phone, and it has worked perfectly.

They only problem I have wiht TomTom is they don't 'officially' support my Tilt, and getting U.S. Maps was a pain. Due to that, I've been thinking of not going back with TomTom if/when they do come out wiht SW for Android.

But, if nothing else is available, or is not any good, I ultimately may go back with them. But only if my phone is supported, (which will be the Captivate).
[Captivate General] 8525Smart:
Huh, that's strange. I'm a former 3GS owner and I would actually rank its GPS as among the best I've ever used. Extremely fast lock-ons in virtually every condition (including the inside of my home) and I've never experienced a lost GPS lock under normal conditions, even during the one time I used it when I had to drive 200 miles out of state.

Meh, but being the owner of the Captivate, I know fully well how much the experience varies with different owners. Aside from that, the ability to field phone calls and use the GPS at the same time must be nice. :D

Hey!

The link to the FOTA file is

http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Sapphire_...3.05.631.7_release_signedu2j8pjou0wsg6p6q.zip

Multiupload link http://www.multiupload.com/VLR1WRILII

You can get the RUU at http://www.multiupload.com/MG55E61MH1

And system, radio, boot and data img files (to flash from fastboot without getting a perfected SPL) are at http://dlf.transfer.ro/ruu_2.1-transfer_RO-08sep-5f012a.rar

I've checked out the update-script and the contents of the zip and...

1. It flashes a new radio - 6.35.16.19.

2. As klothius said, it needs the official 1.5 SenseUI Rogers update and the stock recovery that came with it - otherwise the MD5 verification will fail and the update will halt.

3. New kernel and new recovery. If you have an engineering SPL you can flash your favorite recovery right back after the update.

I'll probably add to this as I find out more :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MARCO310791:
Can i flash this through recovery or is it a RUU? and if i can flash, i need Hero recovery new radio and spl on my 32a (also if it isn't by rogers)?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Just root it with universalandroot!

This rocks! Finally!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] keinengel:
@MARCO310791: I can't say, I haven't tried it yet. It looks like a stock update zip, like the ones you flash in recovery, so it might work. It works by patching the files in the official Rogers release, so it might not work on other ROMs without modification.

From what I've seen in the update-script, it doesn't touch the data partition (except a few of the files that the 1.5 update created there).

WARNING! It installs a new radio - 6.35.16.19.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mastermid:
Does it install new spl?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] keinengel:
Nope, SPL is untouched.

It does, however, flash a new recovery, which means you'll need to flash a modded recovery from fastboot when it's done.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Well if that's true, we'll have root even after flashing this...although you must have a rogers rom already installed and you must have a rogers htc original stock recovery installed too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
working on it as we speak ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] keinengel:

works fine by me
