Great Battery

So, I finally received my battery (**** you, USPS!). I discharged it fully, reset the battery stats in Clockwork Recovery and charged it fully. This thing gives you some powerful battery life. Some perspective...I charged my battery full up Sunday night. I've used it all day Monday (moderate use, screen down to 0% brightness, few phone calls and a quite a few rounds of Angry Birds :D) and some this morning. I'm at 33% battery and will probably not need to charge the phone until this evening sometime. Simply put, I love this battery.

Samsung Service

Hi Jerry, I'm sorry for the delay in my response. I was actually off when I got the news of the update for the Epic. I posted it so that the owners of the Epic would have immediate access to this information. It was not my intention to ne...glect your posts. We've not announced an ETA from Froyo for any of the US Galaxy S models, however, we are still on target to release a software update to address GPS this month.

I very much appreciate your patience and hope you'll hang in there with us. (you too, Jason! :)

Sincerely,

Leah

I'd appreciate any help.

I'm trying to adb push launcher2.apk to system/app.

So to start, of course I put the app in the android sdk tools folder.

Then I entered:

adb remount

adb push Launcher2.apk /system/app/

But it's giving me an: ": Out of Memory" error. Kind of tired and I'm sure I'm overlooking a step.

Please help me with what I've missed.

if you have Astro file manager all you need to do is copy the .apk anywhere on the SD card from your computer > disconnect from computer > open Astro > locate the file > touch/click it and it will ask if you want to open app manager... you can install from there :)

Try booting into the recovery and go into the partitions menu. Mount system and try it again while in the recovery mode.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Yeah the reason it didn't work from within android is because our phones are by default s-on, which means /system and recovery are nand-locked, or write protected/read only. Only recovery and hboot have write access I believe.

im running fresh 3.2 with adw launcher. using fresh updater i set my theme to vanilla lock + clock - clock. the lock screen is fine but when i get a call it shows the swipe down lock instead of the vanilla lock, any ideas?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmedina2:
I don't think you can change that. Mine is the same way. Maybe because its still a part of Sense and that zip doesnt delete the call unlock/answer. Maybe someone with more knowledge can provide input.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
correct... It depends on who's rom it is and if they want to change that feature. It is changed in caulkins rom to resemble his lock screen.

This should be in the q&a section not the android development.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
Not 100% sure but took a quick look and seems its based on CM6? so I assume you need the ENG Bootloader with extended commands, a recovery (either Clockwork or Amon_RA - you can download ROM Manager from market and that will install Clockwork - but there is also an option to install Amon_RA at the bottom), download the necessary zip files (ROM, radio/wimax updates, themes, whatever), put those on the sdcard and use the recovery to flash the new ROM. You will prob have to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache before you flash. I do not use this ROM so I don't know the specifics of it, I would suggest you to look at the post for any instructions and/or issues other users have come across and also post in that thread if you have any questions about it.

[EVO 4G General] Arm0:
Hey Guys!

I just got my first android device (switched over from iPhone 3g) and I LOVE IT!:D

With that said, now to business! I read a lot about rooting the Evo, and other android devices, and I must say, I am quite lost in the lingo. I looked through a bunch of threads, and there are a bunch of tutorials about rooting the device in many different ways. And, after reading a lot of them, I found out about unrevoked, but I am not quite sure what it does. I gather it is a one step rooting program, but if that is the case, what is PC36IMG.zip needed for if unrevoked already roots the device in one click?

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. :)
[EVO 4G General] dkdude36:
ok so rooting removes the protected recovery on the phone. a recovery lets you restore/factory reset and install updates manually. with the non protected recovery, you can make the phone think it is being manually updated, but really you are modifying it to your hearts content. read up on roms. i reccomend flashing the ava froyo v7. very good. have fun with your newly rooted device!!!! just tell me if you need more info.

btw, this should be in questions and answers
[EVO 4G General] Arm0:
Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place, and thanks for the respond. Figured, can't go wrong with General!

So, if i just root it without running a custom recovery, can I still run tethering apps and the screen shot app?
[EVO 4G General] DaWhip:
Basically the root gets you access deeper in the phones files than you previously had. You also gain a new set of permissions (superuser permissions) with the process so that your phone allows you to do more, similar to the iphone jailbreak.

You will need a custom recovery. The updates that sprint/htc usually send out over the air (OTA) can't be used anymore because you will lose your root, so you have to apply them manually through recovery instead. This is just one reason, but the custom recovery is a necessity. It can look complicated, especially the way it reads on the forums, but it is very simple once you have it in your hands.

After rereading your post, you may be referring to a custom rom, not recovery. You do not have to use a custom rom, you can just use stock with root access and superuser permissions and be good to go for wifi tether & screen shots
[EVO 4G General] Arm0:
So, from what I gather, we use unrevoked to unlock the phone and get more privileges, and the custom recovery is used to not lose root privileges after Sprint or HTC puts out new updates to the devices?
[EVO 4G General] DaWhip:
essentially, you got it. The recovery is used for lots of different things, like adding themes, changing kernels, custom roms, backups, ect.

There are also methods besides unrevoked to gain root. It all depends on the type of person you are, if you want root and don't want to think about it, use one of the one click methods. If you want to learn a little check out regaw_leinad's root thread and the videos that are in the OP and you will get root and you will know how it happened when your done.

My recommendation is to choose your method of root and do it and stick with the stock rooted rom for a bit. Read the forums, mostly the OPs on the different custom roms and the kernel threads and you will start to get an idea of what you want from your rooted phone. After a week or two of hanging out on the forums, you will know what you want and you will have enough grasp to go for it. Read OPs thoroughly and follow directions to the T and you will not have any problems.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
I'm currently using an 8gb Transcend card in my Desire, and a few days ago it suddenly wouldn't mount, either in the phone or when phone was connected to the computer. The ext partition was fine, most of my apps ran ok still (except for some of the games which store some data on the fat partition).

I removed the card from the phone and put it in a card reader and ran a disk check on it using Windows XP, and this seemed to sort the fat partition out mostly (some data/music/photos have disappeared).

My question is this - how can I tell if my card is to blame? It is a couple of years old, and was previously in my old Dream where it did get a hammering due to use with a swap partition. I can buy a new card, but I want to be sure that this will definitely solve my problems. Is there a way to check the old card for damaged/worn sectors?

AutoKiller keeps my HTC Hero running smooth as butter. If you use this, you really don't need any other. It's unique because it really integrates with the Android OS rather than the typical (advanced task manager, etc) so it's not forcing the OS to do something it normally wouldn't (kill apps for no reason).

Hi

As i see in my favorite forum, there are a lot of people interested to get the new HTC Desire HD

But Google has been announced about the now Android 3

So my friends

Do you think desire HD will support android 3
[Desire HD General] jkinnison90:
Yes.
[Desire HD General] liorra3:
i think that yep, but we will need to wait to mach time to htc to make it fit (btw - have root, have recovery - so have fun alon)
[Desire HD General] BigMango:
Given HTC's history, they have supported some phones and completely ignored some others.

We can only hope.

I think we should at least see 1 android version update (i.ex: if not v.3, at least a minor version like 2.3).
[Desire HD General] Smartmob:
HTC flagship devices ussualy have updates (like Desire for example) so it's logically that we will have next update (gingerbread) but after realese of the new Android we need to wait at least 2-3 months for HTC engineers to make it with Sensu UI for our HDH ;)
[Desire HD General] dazultra2000:
AFAIK Gingerbread is due Q410 or Q111, and hardware specs at that point aren't going to be drastically different - maybe see some dual-core chips from Qualcomm - but I can't see Gingerbread requiring that somehow.

It may be that we need to overclock our Desire HDs to get the most out of it, but I'm sure some clever bods will be able to port it across. The joys of open source software! :)
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
Yeah of course the DHD will support Gingerbread. Im looking forward to it mostly because of the rumored GPU acceleration in the UI. This will give our phones iPhone-like smoothness in scrolling, zooming etc. To be honest i cant believe Google hasnt implemented this yet.
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
This is so wrong...

I rephrase that, "some HTC flagship devices usually have updates"

And from my experience I always miss those flagship devices...

From my experience, I got an Qtek (old HTC) S200 and a HTC Touch HD. Both were flagships at the time of release and never got big updates, like an important rom version change or a new manila version, only smaller and insignificant rom versions with small fixes.

Now HTC is improving but no matching to Apple for example.

Apple is releasing all the time small fixes and also adding some features and every year a big new version. This is what HTC should have been doing also
[Desire HD General] MaybachMan:
If it isn't officially released you can always hack new ROMs onto it :D
[Desire HD General] Smartmob:
1. Yes, i agree, with my HD2 was the same story, but its all about WM models

2. Apple has only 1 phone = iPhone...Android has at least 6 diferent brands with at least 5-6 newer models...what gives at least 30 diferent mobiles. Well, thats sometimes too much work...and they just give up from some models :\
[Desire HD General] pathologo:
I bet that HTC won't bring Android 3 to the Desire HD.

Instead they prefer to upset all users.
[Desire HD General] lemene:
A pity. They are still interested in selling hardware and now that it's the software that is pushing people we don't have any official update.

Same with the HD2 and the WP7.
[Desire HD General] dazultra2000:
I wouldn't be surprised if some clever person manages to hack WP7 onto the HD2. It makes sense given that I expect HTC designed the HD2 with WP7 in mind (before it got delayed so many times).

In fact, I can imagine people hacking WP7 onto the DesireHD given half the chance.

At the end of the day, the hardware is pretty much the same. There are some clever people out there.

I mean, my TP2 can run Android, WM6.5 and Ubuntu.

Heck, even the iPhone can run Android (kinda).
[Desire HD General] MacaronyMax:
It will support it but i doubt it will get it for a couple of months after release because of HTC :D
[Desire HD General] uhmump95:
I thought Android 3 was no longer going to allow custom skins to be baked in. That they would have to be widgets. Am I mistaken?
[Desire HD General] MacaronyMax:
Thats Windows Mobile 7 ;) :p At first though the rumors said they would not be allowed thing like Htc Sense but i think now they are things like HTC sense will not be encouraged or needed :p :D
[Desire HD General] MaybachMan:
Windows Phone 7 was originally not getting HTC Sense, but it is now. There were recent posts and videos on Engadget about it.
[Desire HD General] dazultra2000:
WP7 isn't getting sense, but it is getting "HTC Hub" which is an app that has a lot of sense-like functionality, but doesn't extend outside the confines of the Hub.

Windows Phone 7 is designed to be entirely Windows Phone 7 - it doesn't allow things to interact with it like sense (yet)
[Desire HD General] KaidM:
I agree that historically HTC has sold hardware .... but they too realise now that its the overall experience and are bringing extra services like HTCSense.com and their business model must be to eventually become like Apple's and gain other revenue streams too.

This means that they will want to engender brand loyalty and hence give updates and continuity to owners.
[Desire HD General] Smartmob:
We all must be realistic here...HTC started with nothing 1997 and Apple was a gigant brand 90' and it is now.

Let gives some time for HTC and Android...about 2-3 years...than it will be very interesting competition...today already is, but than HTC will have a lot more money and be more compatitive to Apple (like a brand).
[Desire HD General] MacaronyMax:
Saying that I hope they don't turn in to the 'new' apple
[Desire HD General] MaybachMan:
This is true, plus you should also remember that HTC hasen't really had a brand image until recently - as I'm sure we all know, historically their phones were always rebranded as Orange SPVs, O2 XDAs (which I assume is where this place got it's name), etc, so only us techies had ever even heard of HTC itself until a few years ago.
[Desire HD General] BigMango:
Would you have any link confirming this, or is this only some wishful thinking on your part?

Or were you just thinking about some xda hacked rom ports?
[Desire HD General] Captain Splash:
I hope it supports 3.0 when its released. If it doesn't i'll sell the DHD and get its replacement - yes that costs alot of money but hey its still cheaper than having a crack habit :D

Isn't the resolution higher for Gingerbread? or have a misread that somewhere?

:D
[Desire HD General] Smartmob:
Misread that...thats with WM 7 ...fix resolutin... ;)
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
wishful thinking, but i dont see any reason why it wont get it, unless Gingerbread has some weird requirements the DHD doesnt meet. Gingerbread was rumored to be announced in October which is awfully close to the release of the Desire HD, so HTC should feel they should update it, if not soon, then at least by Christmas.
[Desire HD General] stiefa00:
... which would be a very nice Christmas present for us! ;)
[Desire HD General] :
To my knowledge, Android 3.0 will remove Custom UI's won't it? That means no HTC Sense?

Well why would HTC put Android 3.0 on the Desire HD if they have to remove Sense? Sense is a huge selling point for them.
[Desire HD General] Smartmob:
After all...i'll wait for next google conferec and giving new android on market...then i'll see what too choose :)
[Desire HD General] magicman0:
No, Android 3.0 is a graphical overhaul for stock android. It still allows things like TouchWiz, Sense, Motoblur.
[Desire HD General] :
Oh, I'm sure I read that custom UI's weren't allowed anymore.

http://www.dailytech.com/Android+30...4+Will+Kill+Off+OEM+UI+Skins/article18897.htm

Then again, i've just found some articles that say HTC Sense/Motoblur/etc will stay with 3.0. If so, I can't wait!
[Desire HD General] willk22:
Yer this is what I have read as well, apparently the graphical ovehaul for 3.0 is so devices like tablets will have a nice interface from stock, because (future) tablet manufacturers such as dell, acer etc dont have their own custom UIs...

Hopefully it will render touchwiz obsolete anyway!
[Desire HD General] cantIntoCode:
Well it comes with stock 2.2 so hopefully HTC will at least update there flagship device once. Bringing it to 3.0 [:
[Desire HD General] madindehead:
The whole beauty of Android is that it can be skinned by Sense etc. Google would be quite silly to kill it off. It would a massive shame if this happened :(
[Desire HD General] Award Tour:
I pray to all that is good that Gingerbread will push OEMs away from creating skins.

HTC has good intentions, they add many useful features, but for real man, their UI/UX team lack quality. And I speak of this as a professional in the field. Google has been busy focusing on building the foundation of Android, but the little UI/UX stuff that they have made, has and is substantially of higher quality than what HTC/Samsung/Etc make.

I was just about ready to return my EVO after having to stare at HTC Sense for long periods times -- it's just that ugly. But after moving to CM/AOSP it has been a much better experience, and one that I enjoy a lot. Gingerbread looks like it going to be a huge focus on UI/UX so I'm excited but at the same time I can already tell that HTC will take it a notch down by slamming Sense over it.
[Desire HD General] ffff:
But Standroid looks like ****.
[Desire HD General] pathologo:
No, but I think so about the crappy sense.
[Desire HD General] stormfury_2:
Sense is also a massive resource hog for what it does. Launcher Pro (Plus) does sense at a fraction of the cost to the system. It would be nice to let the end-user choose without needing to use a custom rom for HTC devices.
[Desire HD General] RoadHazard:
What do you mean? Surely you don't need a custom ROM to run LauncherPro on an HTC device? Or are you talking about running vanilla Android?
[Desire HD General] oprisnik:
You can use LauncherPro with any rom. It replaces the standard android / sense launcher. And it is very fast with many features. The plus version has almost the same widgets as sense but it uses less ressources (RAM)
[Desire HD General] MaybachMan:
I actually like Sense a lot more than standard Android, but I reckon HTC needs a setting to disable it so people can easily choose which they prefer without flashing custom ROMs. We're all happy then :D
[Desire HD General] stormfury_2:
On the Hero for example users with sense suffer with resources compared to users running LP or ADW in my experience. I also don't like the wait for HTC to port sense to each update 2.1 - 2.2. Regardless I'm happy using a vanilla 2.2 rom with LP plus and since 'plus' is so cheap in my opinion it's the best option and most effecient. Maybe with the extra power and optimizations with the new CPU/GPU and extra ram in the DHD sense will work how it was intended without impacting too negatively on te phones performance.
[Desire HD General] MaybachMan:
The Hero was old hardware put into a new shell, I'm not surprised it's slow running Sense.
[Desire HD General] MacaronyMax:
+1...... shame I didn't know that when I bought :o
[Desire HD General] Noxis:
I've not had a Android phone since the Hero, you could disable Ssense quite easily. No custom rom needed. Is this not the case any more?
[Desire HD General] ralle.gade:
I'm running the dhd Rom on ma nexus right now with most of the system on the SD-ext and I still find it way faster and smoother than the normal sense, I think they have put some more work in it from HTC
