re nova on hd2 android ROM

Yes, it works great with the g.bread rom on hd2, but how do I increase the display to full screen size. The display is now about 1/2 the hd2 screen.

I believe I'm using a nova for htc desire, if that matters.
[Captivate Accessories] Krad:
I have a few users that have the original droid. They purchased that super gripy basketball like black cover for it. It makes my grip super sturdy...

Does such a skin/case exist for the captivate? do we know who makes the case?

thanks
[Captivate Accessories] Krad:
Found it. It is the body glove snap on case. Ordered via amazon
[Captivate Accessories] Krad:
my amazon order was canceled, but i saw this case on another droid and it is not the same.

The case i am looking for is not the body glove case.

The case i am looking for is a black snap on case that is rubber with no padding, and it has a grip like cut like a gun handle. The rubber sticks nicely to your hand and feels like a gun grip.

There are no marks on the snap on case to identify it, all i know is that verizon sold it with the original droid. I was told it comes in a few colors, pink black and red.

anyone able to find out who makes this case? if there is one for the captivate?
[Captivate Accessories] Krad:
i found the case i am looking for... it is in this forum post....

notice the grooves... is there anything like this for the captivate?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
There are currently no android roms, only builds. Rom refers to flashable windows mobile systems. The t-mobile vs import situation only applies to WM roms. All android builds are compatible with your phone because they all run off the microSD.

i have this same problem. It was running all night on plane mode and just turned off around 5am. When i pulled the battery and turned it back on it was still at about 80% battery...I had to pull the battery, it wouldn't turn on until i did. The only program i had running was the alarm clock.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PPCUserT:
Forgive my ignorance:

I just got my wife the epic and the pre loaded version of swype on her phone is slightly newer (1.61.37.8224) and had a mic. Would I be able to extract the apk off her phone and put it on my evo? If so, how would I do it?

Thanks in advance
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn2K:
I don't think the one for the Epic would work with the Evo (the microphone part, at least). There was one that was version 1.56.* that had the mic and worked for the Evo, though. But, the official beta is around version 2.something now.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beatblaster:
I tried this with a demo Epic unit I had and it's a no-go. When you rip the apk from the Epic and install it onto the EVO it'll work only in limited mode (no swyping but tap-typing works). Hell, the first time you bring the keyboard up it even goes as far as to say that the version of Swype was designed for a different phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PPCUserT:
sucks. oh well.

thanks for the info, just tryin to get a better swype for us EVO users.

I'm 99% on Android right now. The one component left is the Camera. The log for the latest zImage system " all working" but for me it's still crashing the camera app after seconds without ever capturing anything.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] marcydarcy:
The camera is just fixed in Android Userland. This is one step but camera driver is still missing at Kernel. As long this is not done there will be no camera.

But anyway nice step we took with latest release.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Licht_:
Userland is what now?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] pedrovki:
99% ?

smooth ?

can you tell me specifically what are you using so that you can have all that.

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] shavenyaknz:
Userland is the Android system (like Froyo for example) which is common to all phones. It's the part you interact with. The Kernel is a driver layer which is specific to each phone (Topaz, Rhodium, Hero, Nexus one) that controls the hardware.

Like marcydarcy said when the driver is ready, the rest should work. That being said, getting the driver ready is no small task.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Licht_:
Smoother than the stock rom. Using the latest everything.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] xhozt:
must be nice i still cant get sound on my pure"topaz" 210..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] pedrovki:
but your using froyo 2.2 or the htc sense android ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Licht_:
Froyo but no Sense. If you guys want I can post the combination of files I used. Got damn near everything going. CPU at 650mhz, you might want to tone that down.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] ReWind402:
Post here the complete combination you are using.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] pedrovki:
yes please.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Licht_:
Here you go, all zipped up and ready to go. Please note that the battery indicated is off and the clock set to 650mhz. I'm using it for daily use at this point. Camera of course doesn't work, battery indicated does work if you turn it on but it's a bit finicky. Seems to affect all XDAndroid builds. I haven't stripped the software down any, planning on doing that another time.

Other then all that, rock solid. Runs all the apps i've tried so far, doesn't lag as long as you don't add a ton of widgets. Same signal quality i got before (flawless everywhere in town.) About as good as it gets with a Pure. Wish i had more RAM and a better touchscreen daily though.

That was difficult enough. XDA needs to modify the timeout period for uploads. Can't upload the archive fast enough.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] pedrovki:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Licht_:
The three part RAR is uploaded now in the post you quoted. Give it a shot, you should be pleasantly surprised. Be warned 650mhz = dead battery.

[EVO 4G General] irev210:
Hi all,

I am wondering what type of speeds you guys get with 4G in tether mode. I easily get 10mbit all day long with 4G in non-tether mode (just using the phone) but my problem is with tether (via wifi tether or PDANET with USB connection).

When the phone is in tether mode I am maxing out at about 5mbit. Anyone else have this issue? Anyone know how to get around it, or what the hold up is?
[EVO 4G General] werxen:
Well I know my speeds are also limited when I am in USB tethering mode. I think it has to do with the USB max speed throughput. Not sure about wifi tether.
[EVO 4G General] irev210:
That's what I thought but the pdanet guys say the usb connection is good up to 20mbit

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] adrianmak:
I heard some people can remove internal apps thru update.zip , to reclaim internal storage space.

For example, the internal google maps still exist even though newer version of google maps is updated from market. it is wasting of space.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Either do it using adb (check other thread ive posted commands)

Most prolly if ur upgrading through market n system version exists then u can simply delete the apk/odex

Or

Search for Systemapp remover on market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] adrianmak:
one more question, it is required a rooted device to use adb commands to remove internal/system/built-in apps ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Yea u need root, as u have to delete the apk/odex before running "pm uninstall"

Edit : Well i suppose if u have a testkey accepting recovery like ours, u could technically delete a file on /system using a update.zip

Should work, haven't tried it though. Also note this : deleting an apk is not equivalent to uninstalling it

Apk exists in several places to be confirmed as installed (packages.xml,dalvik-cache,data/system,.odex)

In order to properly delete a system app, u must delete its apk/odex followed by running the uninstall command on its package name.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sturmeh:
You can put a script in update.zip that just executes with root privileges.

Rom makers use this method, however they usually format the system partition then start writing to it.

Can some one tell please me their default key mappings on a HTC HD2, in settings>personal>buttons screen.

Mine has an error with WM 6.5 because three of the 5 keys are mapped to <context menu>

There cannot be duplicate assignments to each button, so I receive an error and cannot leave this screen unless I do a soft reset.

I do not want to change anything as I don't want to mess up the default keys on the unit.

I know some people have changed their send key (hold) to a new assignment so they must have had the correct defaults to start with.

Hi,

Problem: I'm trying to backup my Contact Facebook links to my MicroSD card so when I flash a new ROM I don't have to enter them all manually again.

I've realised that Sense automatically finds your Facebook contacts if you are signed in and they share the same name in Facebook and your Phonebook, but I use nicknames a lot so changing everyones name is really not convenient for me (I wouldn't know who anyone was!)

After searching the forums I saw a post stating that it will also search by email address, however after adding around a dozen emails Sense did not pick up the accounts.

Another post states that PIM Backup saves the Facebook ID stored in the Notes section of the Contact but after running my monthly ROM update and restoring my PIM backup there was a <Facebook ID> string in the notes section but with no ID number in it, so this option does not seem to be working for me.

Does anyone know where these links are stored? Maybe in a registry string or system folder? Could anyone point me to how I can manually back these links up? Or does anyone know of an existing app to do the work for me?

I have many contacts and enjoy the Facebook link feature, but having to manually link everyone every month is getting very tiresome.

Thanks in advance!

jwchips
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
sense writes your Facebook links info (and your favourites from the people tab) into the "notes" field of the contact, so when you sync they should all be back, though they won't show until you first sign into Facebook.

i've flashed maybe 150 times and not had to reset the Facebook links once since the first time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwchips:
Hey, thanks for the quick response.

I've just tested what you said by adding a single contacts facebook link, creating a .pib backup and restoring from it (choosing the overwrite setting to ensure the backup was creating the fb link and not keeping it from the old contact). What happens is quite strange...

After creating the link there is an id:xxxxx and friendof:xxxxx string in the <Facebook>tags, example below

<sn>id:xxxxxxx/friendof:xxxxxxx</sn>

<HTCData><!-- Please do not modify -->

<Facebook>id:xxxxxx/friendof:xxxxxxx</Facebook>

</HTCData>

which is what we are looking to achieve. But when I restore from the .pib I get the following in notes:

<sn>id:xxxxxxx/friendof:xxxxxxx</sn>

<HTCData><!-- Please do not modify -->

<Facebook></Facebook>

</HTCData>

This looks like it has kept the facebook id's in the <sn> tags but hasn't put them in the <Facebook> tags.... can you tell me why this would happen and any way to fix it?

Thanks again

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
sorry can't help, don't know what a pib backup is. all i can say is that syncing with outlookit works fine, and i've read it works fine with googlemail and ms myphone syncing.

have you tested to see if it works? bearing in mind your "me" contact card needs to be signed in to Facebook for it to show?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwchips:
Hey,

I logged into facebook before syncing anything, so I was logged in when creating the contacts (logged in via account manager in settings)

a .pib file is a backup file created by PIM Backup Manager that comes bundled with the Energy ROM's.

I have logged into my MyPhone service on the PC and checked the notes section of stored contacts and the facebook string is stored complete with id tags! So I am going to delete all my contacts in my phone and resync with MyPhone later today. Will edit this post with the outcome.

Thanks for the info,

Hey,

Following on from the last post, I deleted all my contacts on my phone then checked I was logged into facebook before syncing my contacts from the MyPhone service.

YET AGAIN the facebook id's are in the <sn> tags but the <facebook> tags are still empty! If I log into MyPhone from a PC and check the noted the id's are in the <facebook> tags, what is going on?

Does anyone know a way of backing up the contact notes? I'm thinking of installing Outlook after work today and trying to backup/restore from that, but I'm getting tired of constantly inputting everyones facebook links!
