No worries I typed it in dutch because that is my primary language and it was easier for me that way...

anyway my answer to his question was that it was possible to do only quite illogical because you would have to buy a commercial ps3 jailbreak first so you can downgrade and then spoof it with your x1 so that leaves you with 2 options:

1) Buy the official ps3 jailbreak and downgrade and spoof with that

2) Just wait another month (don`t think it will be much more) and jb+spoof with that....

Good luck with it:cool:

I installed the htc keyboard and now as a result my hardware keyboard no longer predicts text. I uninstalled the htc keyboard since it was a bit laggy. So far droid x keyboard seems to work the best, at least for me anyways. Because of my experiment I no longer have predictive text / auto correction (I went into settings and checked them) I suppose the only way around this is clearing something or uninstalling and reinstalling the hardware keyboard software? I wish the htc keyboard could've took over the predictive text (option in the keyboard said it would) but it doesnt.
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
My hw keyboard has never predicted text or spell corrected. :(
[Epic 4G General] Digitaltigre:
Mine either.
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
install swiftkey from the market it is a lot like the stock one in many ways but it will give you word prediction on the HW keyboard. it has a cool feature to scan your sms and "learn" your most used words
[Epic 4G General] GucciPilot:
The very first mod i did was install the droid x keyboard i uninstalled the htc keyboard and droid x keyboard and then reinstalled the droid x keyboard and functionality was restored! Definitely gonna check that app out though, thanks for the tip.

Does anyone know a way to have predictive text for the physical keyboard without having to use another keyboard such as smart keyboard or swiftkey? I really like the gingerbread keyboard and I want to know if I can have that and predictive text for my physical keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] SenseiSimple:
I was recently wondering this too because i like the latest swype, but also want predictive for HW keys... i only just started digging around but i'm sure there's a way to make this happen...
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Menu>settings>language & keyboard>built in keyboard (or device keyboard depending on your rom) will auto replace misspelled words, but no predictive text without Touchpal or the like. I personally like Thumb Keyboard. Best theming, IMO.

[Desire General] msc125:
Hi,

I'm a Hero owner, looking to upgrade to the Desire in September. However, I was speaking to a guy in Phones 4 U, and he said that they are getting a HTC Desire HD in October.

Did a quick google and it seems to be the GSM version of the CDMA Evo 4G, and apparently it will be launched on September 15th in the UK?

I'm on O2, I called them and they have nothing in the pipeline, but say that they would have it if HTC are releasing it.... hmmmm....

So, anyone heard of it? Any ides what carriers will be getting it?

Cheers
[Desire General] setspeed:
I'm interested in the Desire Z/G2. It's been announced by TMobile in the States, but I want it sim-free, as TMobile reception is rubbish in my area (Suffolk, UK) - plus I'm in the middle of a contract anyway.

Anyone that has any info on the UK release dates/networks that will carry these phones, please share! :)

Does anyone know how can i enable DIAG mode on my HTC Legend?

I mean the Qualcomm diagnostic port.

In Windows mobile devices it's ##3424#

The option *#*#3424#*#* gives only some functional tests screen, so it's not the same code for sure.

Thanks.
[Legend Android Development] oneyard:
do u mean *#*#info#*#* ??
[Legend Android Development] maxrfon:
Well, almost.

This shows only info, but i need to activate the diagnostic monitor for QXDM (simple tool from qualcomm to interact with it's CPUs)

Maybe you know any other codes?

[XPERIA X10 General] franzfume:
Someone know how face detection work? I'm confused need to tag face manually? Is so stupid?
[XPERIA X10 General] black_math:
Soon as you tag the face once, it should start recognising the face in future photos.
[XPERIA X10 General] hal752:
I think you can only tag a face when the phone itself actully reconises it as a face, kinda stupid tbh And the photo has to be taken with face dectection on
[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
I just went through and tagged a bunch of pics on my SD card. None of them were taken with the phone. It didn't recognize all of them as faces but it did recognize most. It also auto tagged several after I manually tagged a few.
[XPERIA X10 General] franzfume:
Ok mine don't autotag nothing...... BTW I have to shoot whit face detection on? And any way to let x10 autotag photo taken in the past? That feauture is not documented well
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
you use the face detection with the camera (on settings) then go to mediascape and there assign a face to a contact, after that every time you take a pic the face recognition system will assign a contact the the face and automatically saves it under the contact
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Is there any way of retrospectively tagging photos which contain faces that you've later tagged. Ie. After I've tagged a face can I get it to go back and find any other photos of that person and tag them for me automatically? Doing it manually is a pain in the ass!!
[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
It did do that for me but it is not 100% accurate. I did have to tag some people multiple times.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Maybe it's a feature in the Japanese X10 (SO-01B) only, but, all my photos with recognized faces got tagged automagically, including photos that were sent to me via email or downloaded and saved from the web.

Really disturbing, to be honest, when some friend's faces were tagged before I had even opened the picture for the first time.
[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
That worked for me too, just not perfectly.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Yeah.. hence, I wrote "recognized". Then again, I've only tagged 6 or 7 people.

The annoying thing I find with the tag feature is... it can recognize every single person except me. :\
[XPERIA X10 General] Anseldor:
i love the face detection feature on the X10, works great for me, but ironically i would have loved to be able to tag someone even if there face wasn't recognized. I can't seem to do that with mediascape. Might there be a third party program that does that ?
[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
Sorry, I meant that it worked on a ROM other than SO-01B. I am on the AT&T version which is R2CA016. I had been using unbranded version 026 and face detection worked on that version for me as well. Unfortunately, if you wipe your phone you will have start from scratch on face detection. It doesn't seem to sync that info anywhere. The AT&T version doesn't have SE Sync so I wonder if SE Sync retains that info?
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
"automagically"

Not a real word, but I love it...! :D:D

Let's get this one into the dictionary!
[XPERIA X10 General] xeviro:
the face detection actually work with any photo. doesn't have to be photo taken by x10 with face detection on. so any picture with face will work. then once you tag on face, the phone will work on background, and tag other pictures. this is the one of the feature i love in x10.

then for newly taken picture with face, that one will be processed immediately and if successful will have the face tagged.

now the real problem is, the face detection code is not really good, i found Picasa face detection works much better. so don't expect all face will be recognize by the phone. I think 2.1 will have better recognition later.

some of experience with the face detection are:

1. 8mpix with face and torso taken with other camera, usually cannot be recognized

2. same picture as above, if scaled down to 800x800 might be recognized

3. low contrast picture might not be recognized

4. photo will full body taken usually failed, with a cropped mugshot will work even though the cropped mugshot have still have same resolution (not scaled)

so basically this whole face detection is still not perfect, but its better than nothing :)

one more thing, for those who use task killer, if you kill certain SE core module like LearningClient and FaceDetection, then the face detection will not run in background.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungSinema:
Apps2SD doesn't move the cache to SD. You have to do it manually. So, when you remove apps, you're probably losing the caches too.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urushiol:
The reason you have less free memory than the stock rom is because the stock rom is "odexed" and fresh is "deodexed". A deoxed rom takes the .odex part of the application and injects it back into the .apk. This makes the first boot take longer(or any boot after you clear dalvik), makes the rom take up more internal storage, and allows you to do neat things like customize and theme your rom.

a .odexed rom has a faster boot time on the first boot(or any boot after clearing dalvik), takes up less internal memory and isn't themed as easily as a deodexed rom.

If you are interested in increasing your free internal memory consult this thread. YMMV.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754805

PS: also keep in mind the "internal storage" of the phone is really just the /data partition if I understand correctly. Most all apps that come with a rom are stored in the /system partition. So by removing bloatware your really just freeing up space on the /system. Keep in mind that any app, no mater where its installed to, /data or /system, will take up *some* space on the /data because thats where the dalvik is stored for that app. So by uninstalling an app in /system you may increase your free internal memory but only because the dalvik cache and user data for that app would be gone from /data.

Barnacle is the only one that people claims works. I haven't been able to get any Ad-hoc to work with Linux, but Windows works with Barnacle.

Not related to wireless, but there is built-in USB tethering which I prefer if I can get signal at my laptop. Just plug in the USB, go to Settings->Wireless & Networks->Tethering and check 'USB Tethering'. If it prompts for drivers tell Windows to manually use 'Remote NDIS Device for Internet Sharing' by 'Microsoft Incorporated'.

[HD2 General] Birdsfan:
First, a thank you to all the effort you folks put into this site, amazing!

My question is this, I have Hardspl3 on my TMOUS HD2, running stock updated ROM but need to send it in for service. When I go to run the HSPL3 executable file (virus scan is off) I see the DFT warning screen screen that asks me to verify my SPL is XXX and so on and as soon as I select next my Activesync connection drops out and my phone goes right into the bootloader screen. I thought I was supposed to have the chance to select SPL2.08.0000 (my original SPL was 2.10.0000, not sure if that is a problem for warranty repair?) but nothing comes up, the exe file is looking for the USB connestion which has dropped out. Within 15 seconds or so I get a critical error message, code is 00000002 stating USB connect failed. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, have researched but have not found anything useful. Would it be easier to copy the .nbh file to my sd card instead?

Thank you for any/all insight

enter bootloader manually first, then connect usb, wait for serial to change to usb, then run hspl.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVETHIS:
Ok, so I lost my phone on labor day....it's terrible, i feel naked without this thing. Not so much the phone, I'm more distraught over the SD card that was in my phone, and I didn't have a recent backup of it.

So I'm devistated that I've lost so many pictures from my 30th bday celebration at Myrtle, countless videos and just everything that was on my SD card. That's the most important part of the phone.

Anyway, to the point. Is there an app or a process that anyone goes through to ensure if their phone is lost that they have a relatively recent backup of their SD card? I've lost my phone before, but I got it back, someone went out of their way to contact sprint to get a hold of me to return it. So I backed up my SD card as soon as I got that one back, but I guess I felt that I would never loose another phone. Word of advice, don't get drunk on labor day and let your friend use your phone then put it in her purse, it's easy to loose track of!

Thanks for any help.

If you are rooted, periodically do a nandroid backup of your phone and store the backup file on your PC.

If you are not rooted, backup everything with MyBackup Pro and store the backup files on your PC.

When you get the new phone, simply do a restore from backup.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroths:
You could use various backup software when you have your SD mounted as a drive on your PC.

I went the cheap and easy route with 2 batch files on my Windows PC.

SD_Backup.bat

SD_Restore.bat

"L" is the drive letter my PC assigned my Evo when mounted in USB drive mode. "C:\Evo_Backup" is the directory I store my files.

The backup will only backup files that don't exist on your PC or are newer which makes backups much faster after running the first full backup. The restore does the same, but in reverse.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVETHIS:
stroths...this is an excellent idea, I never though of doing it this way. I have a few batch scripts that I use with robocopy. I will definitely be using this script. Thanks for the tip.

If you have your phone configured to forward to google voice, then its impossible for you to get actual phone voicemails so I dont see your use case.
