;) i need all graphics to be done. i've "borrowed" some graphics from other sites, asking the developers first, but the tilesets are not enough and i'm not really familar with graphics design (also simplest graphics :))

what i need (and your imagination may have no limits) are:

- tilesets for towers

- tilesets for enemies

- playfields or "rooms"

- explosions

- projectiles

- maybe a well designed icon

format of tilesets (or single tiles) may be discussed, i prefer 32x32 or 64x64 tiles.

the style is not choosen yet. currently, style is medieval. but i really don't like it much and graphics looking not that good. style itself should not depend on implementation. as i wrote already, most of the implementation is done, graphics are changeable. so, if you're really interested, i may give you some short shots to get a picture of what's done so far.

and yes, graphics work is mostly 50% of the work ... the more eye candy an app is, the more successful.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] alfrqan:
hi guys

i was trying to make arabic language showing correctly in JPC froyo

u can see in this pic that arabic letters is not compounding as nomal and arabic letters actually is included in JPC but the problem is arabic shaping which should all arabic letters be compound because writing in arabic start from right to left

here as u see that arabic letters are not compounding

and

picture below is showing the correct formating of arabic

so any ideas plz to make arabic writing and reading is possible

i tried to replace the font with one is working in 2.1 android but still not compounding
​
[Galaxy S I9000 General] leoon:
Yea thats the reason I didnt flash to JPC.. I'm now using JG8 which supports Arabic.

Any idea how to extract the fonts from this firmware (JG8) and install them in JPC?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alfrqan:
Dear

I replace all font of JG8 which supports Arabic but still font is not compoundig, the problem i think because of arabic which start always writing from right to left

but how we can make it possiple ,How to do i?!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alfrqan:
any dots?any hint?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mohdsos:
Ive tried also in font replacing but no result yet i am trying to work it out the way it was done on nexus one device. I hope it would yeild a good result.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alfrqan:
I had tried before>>still not compounding
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eliazu:
Im in the same situation, guess that we ll wail for the Arab version
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DannyV1:
Hebrew has the same problem

Since Hebrew is also a right-to-left lang, it suffers from the same behavior.

The problem is not the fonts but a set of system files and applications controlling the alignment and direction of writing.

There is a guide in the Israeli forum: www (dot) iandroid (dot) co (dot) il (I am sorry but I seem to be blocked from posting links) that seems to solve almost all the problems for right to left including:

1. Indentation.

2. Correct writing direction for numbers.

3. reversed subject display in Gmail etc.

I most say, that even though there is a solution for almost all the annoying right-to-left issues, it still does not compare to the out-of-the-box support in JG8 (which I am also using...)

Have fun,

Danny.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] madmack:
Awesome, thanks a ton !
[Galaxy S I9000 General] madmack:
Unfortunately, the files they include are not able to patch the framework.jar that we have in our JPC ROMs because framework.jar is not deodexed.

have you tried the solution yourself ? if so, didn't you get an error when the script tries to patch framework.jar ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DannyV1:
I saw that there is a de-odexed JPC based ROM. Try using it (look for "Doc's RomMod Froyo V2").

As I mentioned, I am using JG8, but a lot of people have reported the procedure described in this guide as working...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] madmack:
Very interesting find Danny. I actually did flash the de-odexed ROM you mentioned, and then ran the script you referenced from the forums. framework.jar is patched and all fonts are replaced successfully with the ones they provided (had to go through crazy loops just to get write permissions in recovery).

Here are the results: email titles show the correct order of letters (they go from right to left instead of left to right) but the letters are still not connected. The email body, however, still suffers from the old problem; disconnected, left to right order.

I get the same browser results as I did in the original JPC Rom. For Mms.apk (the messaging app), I get the same result as in the gmail titles (correctly ordered from right to left, but not connected).

I wonder where these guys got these layout files from.. Perhaps a patched fully Hebew/Arabic compatible Froyo release ? I went through the script and saw that they were replacing some files in framework.jar, I'm just wondering where they got these files from.

I don't know how involved you are in the development of this patch, if you can help, clarify or add anything to my findings, it'll be appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DannyV1:
I am not one of the developers. I know (from reading the thread I pointed you to), that some of them were involved in official hebrew/arabic releases for carriers in Israel...

You can look for a manual solution for your problems in this thread. They specifically say that the script might not work for everyone.

I know it is not trivial and not perfect and that is the reason why I stick with my JG8...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bloodrider:
Where do I add an app to startup?

I searched on /etc/init.d but didn't found any section on the file for that :confused:

I've already tried Startup Manager, but it won't work. Supposedly it can add an app to the boot, I go to that section, it asks me if I want to add an user app or a system app and then nothing, doesn't appear any list with the apps.

That's why I want to now which file I have to configure to add an program to the startup.

Cheers

[Desire General] freaksey:
Is it possible to have multiple ROMs on one phone at the same time? (no nandroid)
[Desire General] 12k:
This is not (yet) been developed. There is a way to boot from sd card, but I readed that a long time ago, not sure if thats been developed for daily basis use.

For now, you have to use the nandroid way to boot another rom.
[Desire General] AndroHero:
yes android can be booted from a sd card, just like it is on wm phones :)
[Desire General] Puenos:
Would love to see my device multi-booting other OS'
[Desire General] Prerna:
Hi there,

I understand it is possible to boot another android version from the SD card.

Now can another OS be booted, such as WM mobile or Windows Phone 7?

Hello to all admins and not only. I need to know that there are some methods to extract some bin files from samsung s5600 in order to read it and to find out freeze code and nck code. i see and done a method for LG KP 500 which is simmilar to this samsung, they do not have an OS. I unlocked it after few hours..but done it. Are there any methods for this Blade/Preeston or whatever? See for iphone, see for htc alot, see for omnia, for china..but for this?? Thank you.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this also. Sometimes my milestones touch screen start goin all crazy an pushing buttons an sliding pages an pretty much making a huge mess.This has happened before, an it went normal after 4 to 5 hours later, an now its happening again. I did some research sayin somethin about the touch screen an its reaction to humidity an stuff, but i wasnt sure. So im hoping someone here knows what is up an can tell me what i have to do.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] knowthenazz:
Did you have your phone plugged in to a USB charger at the time? Was it the stock charger?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
no, it doesnt happen jus when its chargin, it happens randomly, an no its not a stock charger, but i dont see what that would have to do with the screen goin crazy pushing everythin
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] knowthenazz:
Well, I would suggest that you try reverting back to using the stock charger for a few days and see if that helps. Using other chargers (esp from ebay) can cause similar effects on the Milestone/Droid due to voltage variances.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
ill give it a try, an let you know what happens, thing is i bought the phone alone with no stock charger, so im gonna have to check on ebay for a stock one, but thanks again
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] knowthenazz:
Well, try buying a stock one from an authorized Motorola dealer. Every since I purchased one on ebay, I always make sure my Moto chargers come in a sealed, hard plastic, package in attempt to improve authenticity (However, I'm not sure how much that buys me).

Good luck.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Burko:
I get this same issue.

Unplugged or not, on various roms from stock to motofrenzy.

sometimes the screen will just become really crazy.

If i open a webpage and just hold my finger on the screen in one place it will zoom in scroll up and down, all sorts.

I verified what was happening by downloading Multitouch visualiser 2 from the Market.

A reboot always fixes the problem

Its kinda frustrating, because i know that Moto just direct you to the place of purchase and i was not the original purchaser, so i have no chance of a warranty repair.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
yeah ive tried everything, its driving me up the wall, its been like this for the last 30 hours,an i cant even use the phone, this is the worst it been, it usually goes away after 5 to 6 hours , but now its jus gone crazy, an ive restarted an removed the battery countless of times

but burko, are you using a sock wall charger or a ebay or differant brand wall charger.thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
could you tell me how much the out put of volts an amps the motorola milestone wall charger is, thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Burko:
I actually use a BlackBerry charger, as i assumed Micro-Usb would be the same for all manufactures, but as above, it does start the screen going mad, as soon as i unplug it, it stops!

Ill see if i can make it go mad without being plugged in!

Good shout Knowthenazz!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] FirasSalah:
That happened with me, when the temperature degree outside is very high, I live in region the degree reach to 48degree, my phone screen goes crazy, so I think your charger make your phone very hot, so the sensitivity of your screen begin not work properly. I'm note sure, just want to share my idea.

Thanks,
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
well its been about 4-5 days already, an my phones touch screen still goin crazy, i thought maybe id go back, like the other times, but this time seems permanent an its extremely depressing thinkin about it cus i jus got it like a week and a half ago off a guy.ive tried countless of chargers, even my bros motorola backflip charger, an nothin. so im gonna assume its permanently gone. i would switch the digitizer but thats gonna cost money an might jus lose the entire phone, so im jus gonna throw it back on ebay an go back to my htc hero an jus wait for the milestone 2 to come out. but if anyone does find a solution please post it here. thx everyone R.I.P. MILESTONE
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] knowthenazz:
All chargers using the micro USB spec should be the exact same voltage (and different current ratings depending on the charger, although different current values shouldn't affect your screen at all). I suspect that the voltages are very close, if not generally the same, but, the voltage may slightly fluctuate (or ripple) over time, which I believe may be causing the issue. The better quality the charger, the more constant the voltage.

If I were you I'd purchase an authentic Motorola Micro USB charger, and call it a day.

Glad I could help! :)

Not sure if this is true, but, I heard that most Motorola chargers work on Blackberry units, but, the converse isn't always the case.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
well its been about a week and a half an the crazy screen thing finally stopped, i used my friends motorola backflip charger, an seems like evrything is back to normal, but now the "back" button does not work, an it really is a verry important button, so im jus hopin time will fix that button too
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] knowthenazz:
Glad things are returning back to normal for you with regards to the screen.

Not sure what's going on with your back button though. Hope it works itself out for you.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
thanks for your help knowthenazz an everyone else =]
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] AdrienC:
Go to a service center asap!

Dude, use your warranty. Take it to a service center.

Mine happened the same, and I decided to send it back to motorola and just got it back yesterday.

They replaced the glass screen and the frame which surrounds the glass.

It seems they removed that plastic from behind the screen on the slider, or also replaced the slider module.

I'd guess it might be a known issue for motorola, because my phone had scratches on the glass, plus a small crack on the screen ( yeah, I know, it's gorilla glass, but I'm an orc with mobiles ), the metal frame was all dented, and they replaced it anyway, when they could just said "this is misuse, it's failing because you drop it several times, go buy another one"

I already had this issue a few months before, it got better and I decided to keep on, and then it started again and got unusable, so don't get excited about it getting better, because probably will eventually start failing again.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TONKAFORCE:
thing is i bought it off anothere guy, an he was a phone dealer an it was given to him as a gift from motorola, an like it had no papers or charger or service carrier, jus the phone alone straight form hong kong. an yeah couple hours later my screen went crazy again, so its on ebay atm lol, but thanks anyways
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dheophe:
It happened with me too. Somebody told me that was cause by sweat. So i took it to service center.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mojo_droid:
started happening to me yesterday, anyone know a fix yet?

Yeah I bought that very same one but for some reason my power outlet likes to rotate for some reason not a deal breaker but it's just kind of strange. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Croak:
Because the Galaxy S, when it's new and only has a few applications on it, is also very fluid. It's only after a bit of use and personalization that it begins to lag.

For some, that point comes pretty quick.

But for somebody doing a quick hands-on press demo with a device that's probably factory reset on a daily (if not hourly) basis, it never shows up. I'm willing to bet its' the same case with the GTab, it's just that nobody has had a long-term, unsupervised relationship with it yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kuposh:
or maybe it has a final froyo version that is much fluid than the various JPX
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shivankit:
Lets steal it then

The hardware profiles of te two devices are very similar so lets just steal the 2.2 froyo from the tab and boot it to the galaxy???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] azazin:
I wonder if there will be 1080p video playback on Galaxy S (I know it doesn't make a difference in quality really because of screen resolution) because they both have the same processor.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nanoo-eg:
I am off topic but because I have Galaxy S and iPad, I can say these will buy Galaxy Tab will be all the time with official task manager at them finger.

Must to have lag fix and good by battery :)

I work from the morning with iPad and I am now at 53%.

All my mails, browsing, forums, everything. All the day it is beside me. At the office and home.
[Nexus One General] Chiger:
For a fee that is. Long story short my rooted phone would reboot every time I used data about 3 months ago. I tried flashing all types of roms, but the problem still persisted so I flashed everything on my phone back to stock. However more problems emerged and everything got worse and worse to the point that I couldn't charge my phone because it would get really hot and reboot itself and get stuck on the X. The phone was useless I couldn't make a phone call without the dam thing rebooting.

I sent my phone to HTC and I was told that my mainboard needed to be replaced and it wasn't covered under warranty, I asked the lady that was speaking to me why I wasn't covered under warranty and I was told that I was running a custom rom. I asked her why is it that so many other people who were running custom roms were able to get a replacement. I was told that it was because they were able to flash their phones completely back to stock and they couldn't flash my phone back to stock. What a load of bull! She told me that my mainboard needed to be replaced because they could not flash my phone completely back to stock in order to do their tests. My mainboard needed to be replaced because it was faulty not because of the rom I was running!

Besides my unlocked bootloader, everything was completely stock. I flashed everything back to 2.1 and the default recovery. I then updated to 2.2 through OTA.
[Nexus One General] JanetPanic:
It seems perfectly reasonable to me. HTC replacing defective displays/digitizers/buttons makes sense even if it is flashed with a custom ROM. There is no reasonable way that damage to these components would occur due to a custom ROM.

The mainboard however is a component that could easily be damaged by irresponsible overclocking or (far less likely) a bad ROM. HTC has no way of determining whether or not the damage was original or due to tinkering and in that case, especially since we were given plenty of warning, is justified in refusing warranty.

I sympathize with your plight but am siding with HTC on this one.
[Nexus One General] cymru:
By stock they may mean v2.1. If they cant downgrade to 2.1 then maybe thats why they're having an issue.

By unlocking the bootloader you've voided your warranty anyway so no point complaining since they have no obligation to fix your phone.
[Nexus One General] y2whisper:
unfortunately you were better off putting your device back to stock before sending it in.
[Nexus One General] Chiger:
Not once did she mention anything about the bootloader being unlocked voiding my warranty. If she said straight up that I had unlocked my bootloader and they won't repair my phone under warranty and that the people who were able to get their phone replaced were under different circumstances, I would have accepted the fact that I am SOL.

However that was not the case and she stated that they would not replace my mainboard under warranty because they could not fully flash my phone back to its original state. Because of this they need to replace my mainboard in order to get it to stock.

I've read enough posts on people who's phones were acting the same way as my phone was, difference though is that they got their phone replaced under warranty no questions asked.
[Nexus One General] Tech_Boy:
My phone had the exact same problem, and I did the exact same thing. I unlocked to it to try flashing different roms. Well it didn't work.

Called HTc I was very polite about the whole thing, got a replacement. I did opt for a swap because I thought that if I sent it in for repair thy may notice the unlocked bootloader so I figured swap would be better and it worked out great!

Maybe call again and explain the whole thing, tell them you paid over $500 for this great phone, but you can't even use it for a a phone because of the factory defects, and you are sure you have they have seen this problem in the past with many other customers; like myself. And tell her that some people online recommend you try unlocking the bootloader so you could reflash it or something, and that you don't understand it all, regardless it didn't work and all you would like is a working phone. So ask if they would be willing to simply change the motherboard or send you out a replacement unit.

I don't know just an idea, worth a shot maybe talking to them again! Goodluck ;)
[Nexus One General] mtl171:
tried the same exact tactic to get my macbook fixed but the mac genius was juts too stubborn. remember politeness+cluelessness is the way to get a warrantee acknowledged. well good luck with getting your phone fixed!
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
... where are all the people on this board that flame you if you dare to ask for a way to re-lock the bootloader? You know ... the ones calling one names and telling people that HTC will honor the warranty despite the bootloader unlock.
[Nexus One General] t4revan:
HTC did the same to me when mine overheated and cracked it's screen sitting on my desk charging overnight. File a report with the BBB if anything, I did after HTC kept my Nexus for 3 weeks and refused to fix it because of the bootloader and I had a new one 2 days later.
[Nexus One General] _Dennis_:
I broke some resistors on my motherboard. They wont fix it for free. I'm so angry.....you accepted the voiding of the warranty when you unlocked. The lady used the wrong terms but you know what she ment. If you void a warranty and the company still honors your voided warranty then good on them. They don't have to and flashing roms CAN mess up a motherboard by overheating it among other things (over voltage etc).
[Nexus One General] kitchencop:
Well said, warranty is voided, end of story. We all agreed to those terms when we unlocked our phones.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
How in the hell did you do that?
