[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Viper Matrix Wireless:
Yes theres a Mozart ROM it was referred as the HD3 WP7 ROM. I have it downloaded just sitting there. In order to even flash something like this you'd have to change the Device ID info in the setup & then it wouldnt upgrade the bootloader. You'd have to have probably unlocked w/ a bootloader created for the Mozart. Then you'd probably not be able to use the flash drive on a T-Mobile branded HD2 since the HD7 has 512 & so on. Drivers should work fine if you could flash it but where to begin would take time & effort.

Download it here:

I'm sure one of you smart cookies could have a play and figure this out...slowly but surely! :-)

Seeing all the new (underwhelming) HTC phones that are coming out, it'd be awesome to run WP7 on my current HD2.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] alesscam:
are you shure?

i think that wp7 will be the end of the cookers rom
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Viper Matrix Wireless:
I bet they would push out this ROM to devices that dont have the WP7 support w/ updates but what can you really do w/ WP7 now? Only the future will tell.

Hey all!

dumped IMGFS, tons of interesting stuff!! especially HTC_Global_Customization and HTC_OEMAPPS!

xip.bin and its dump
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] he3:
Nice work! Anything with the string "tether"?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] l2tp:
Also here are dumps of HTC Mozart IMGFS and XIP.

Unlike HTC Spark (which has post-RTM build 7004 dated 16.09.2010), HTC Mozart has RTM build 7003 dated 31.08.2010 and also contain some debug software and apps, does not contain HTC Hub but contain some other HTC applications.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] he3:
Can the Htc hub be extracted to be installed on a prod wp7 device? Or is some sort of signing issue?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
i think guy brings up a good point and perhaps a decent solution. why not allow/encourage the dev's to explain a bit more. I'm a fairly adept nerd but when i'm installing an app sometimes i'm just not sure why in the world this app needs that permission...how is my mom or sister or anyone that i advocate Android to going to figure it out? why does this app need my coarse or fine location or full network access or access to the contact list etc...

and please do not say 'if you don't like what's listed, don't install the app'. that is exactly the point of this thread. the line items in the Review Permissions window don't always make sense. how can the average end user make a educated guess with the current system...they don't, they just start doing the same thing they do on their Windows Desktops...just click right on thru it. then what happens? some jerk writes a piece of malware. user has an issue. now its all androids fault. and viola, proof that linux based devices are still too geeky for avg use.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beatblaster:
Unfortunately, there's no denying the cold, hard facts - ignorance is not bliss. Everything has a learning curve. Time and effort must be spent to educate users as to why <this> is happening and what it is doing for them. It's sad but true. Besides, if everything that required higher learning could be easily figured out I'm sure humanity would be freed from the shackles of poverty, war and hunger by now. So, yes, permissions are too obtuse for the average user. Unless they want to educate themselves on more generalized computing skills they'll never get it.

That's just my two cents. Sorry I couldn't be of better assistance :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
ok. so i wish to educate myself. please provide a full and detailed example listing why which permissions may be needed/used so that i will be able to make an educated choice. where is that link again?

i'm bringing up an issue...not asking for others to chime in and tell me how stoopid the end user base is. i'm an admin for over 10yrs. trust me ... i know. in this case i am also confused as are a large numer of folks. i understand the huge development curve android has experienced over the last 18mths. my concern is that if this issue is not addressed, even the folks that would take the time to read the Review Permissions page will give up. i know i have on more than one occasion. that's a bad trend.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beatblaster:
Wow. You bring up a good point. Didn't mean to offend you or anything. I still don't have a good answer for you but I will let you know that I only install apps that I can trust usually after researching them via Google searches and talking about them with people here. I too am an admin (been a long, long 15 years now) and if there's 2 things I learned about recommending custom Android setups they are:

- If you think the user is going to use you as Wikipedia it's probably best to leave them at stock

and

- Only recommend this kind of stuff to users who are willing to accept responsibility for their actions otherwise you'll be the fall guy every time something goes wrong.

Again, I'm sure you know this and I didn't mean to offend you so..... bye.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn2K:
Users can be pretty obtuse, and I think you're completely correct about the current permission system. However, I don't think it could be made much clearer without multiplying the number of permissions. Malware can exist because users consider certain permissions to be common. Conversely, apps with a good reputation can include permissions that make them wonder, "why would they need that?" Look at keyboards and how many people freak out when they go to enable them.

One thing that would be nice for users is if you could tap on a permission and the phone would display a short explanation of that permission. They probably aren't self explanatory for everyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
no offense. i do understand. there was a point in time where i used to openly provide paid tech support to home systems of my coworkers....it was a short point in time. lol. but i digress ... i may have come off too strong in my reply, i was just trying to prevent the thread from wandering off.

I've tried to post on this topic in the past but have not nothing useful. in and of itself, i find that kinda sad. I've even seen some folks suggest that people "take a trusting stance because most developers do not intend harm". i wish i could. but i'm out of college.

it would be wonderful if someone (ie: a google dev or just someone with knowledge of these things) were able to create a page that could give real world examples and general rules of thumb. currently i have only found a couple pages that cover a couple settings. not nearly enough to be of much use.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
I concur.....I look at the permissions that apps ask for all the time. However, if I see a battery management app is asking me for full internet access and access to my contacts, I just pass on it. A lot of times you can figure out if an app is requesting bogus permissions just by using common sense.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
if your app is paid for by advertisements then it will need Internet Access so it can retrieve ads...thus paying the developer. often that's where i see 'coarse location' used as well...for regional specific ads. so in those cases, not nefarious use but a perfect example of what I'm talking about. thank you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeknoJnky:
the problem with the current permissions system is twofold;

1) as mentioned, there is no details WHY or WHAT FOR a particular permission is required

2) its all or nothing, ie you can't give permission for network access and restrict access to contact list, etc. You have to accept all the requested permissions or deny and not install the app.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
fwiw: There is an app in the market called "permissions" that tells you not only the permissions each app requires but it gets VERY specific. Within each permission category there is a whole list of specifics.

It won't help with apps you haven't installed yet but it's good info on the ones you already have.

*edit- Just revisited this app, it's not as detailed as I remember.

Hello all newbie here with android, I have rooted with UR3 latest version. I downloaded rom manager and attempted to flash cm6. The phone hangs at the htc screen or aborts. Here is what the log shows.

I:Trying update-binary.

Anyone who can help me fix this would be greatly appreciated. Was running stock froyo before root.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Gadflyrock:
Having the same problem, maybe this is with Nand not being unlocked. I'm a noob to rooting too. Someone help... :/
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mattismyname:
Same problem here. My NAND is definitely unlocked so I don't think that's the issue.

I was able to install CM6.1RC2 just fine, but when downgrading to CM6.0stable I get this assertion failure.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] klopinator:
After root, reboot holding the down arrow, and on the white screen, does it say S-OFF or S-ON?

You need S-OFF.

Easiest way I know to do that is Unrevoked.

http://www.unrevoked.com - read EVERYTHING on that site. It looks pretty and simple, and I don't like that they try to make it look that simple. But you should actually know all the information on this page:

[Vibrant General] stewiegx420:
Hey all my android brethren! I am a modest if not intensive android tester/ researcher and this post is exclusively for the Samsung Vibrant. I have tested over 25 mainstream a/v out cables and have come up with one winner in stability, quality, and greatness haha! The winner is....GIGAWARE 3.5 A/V out cable for camcorders and other devices. The product number is...11A09 and the sku....040293024246. Radioshack has it...good hunti.g and watching your phone be more then what it is!

Update: The red input is actually the video i.e. yellow input, sorry everyone!!
[Vibrant General] geekus33:
Sounds more like a phone accessory more than phone development...but that might just be me...Thanks for your testing either way.
[Vibrant General] grennis:
How much is it?
[Vibrant General] TunedFish:
Good find. What were the issues with the other cables?
[Vibrant General] MStrawder:
Checked the SKU and model # on RadioShack and nothing. A Google search produces ONLY this post. Anyone have any luck with this as I would like to find a cable that works well?
[Vibrant General] dnob:
What I wasn't to know is why you can't watch Avatar through the tv out cable. I can watch anything on my phone through the cable except the movie. Suck
[Vibrant General] stewiegx420:
Issues with other cables include choppy video, freezing up on tv, and just plain not working at all.
[Vibrant General] ninoriff:
Just cut the headphone cable and attach RCA cables to it,

Headphone Wire Color codes

Red - Speaker +

Green - Speaker +

White - Video +

Gold - All Ground connects on same cable.

And your done.. takes all of 20 secs

Note: Make sure to burn off coating on headphone cables, just take a match to each seperate cable.
[Vibrant General] ttabbal:
DRM, and yes, it does suck. But you can work around it by encoding your own and deleting the one that came with the phone. There's even an app in the apps forum to provide the launcher. :)
[Vibrant General] corradoswapt:
I bought this cable about a month ago. it was 30 bucks from radio shack. albeit 10ft long. works good but picture quality is so so. I also bought the samsung hdmi cable but we all know how that went.
[Vibrant General] nsavani:
i tried the official apple av cable that came with my old ipod, and it worked perfect with my vibrant
[Vibrant General] ShinyBuddha:
qft...this belongs in accessory forum.
[Vibrant General] darksandz93:
mother effing effer......i was about to buy the zune AV cables, and sure enough my brain clicked that i have an old box to my old camcorder that has AV cables for it that plugged into the headphone jack.......sure enough it only had YELLOW AND WHITE NOT RED! UGH!!! so all i get is audio....no video......man...this sucks.
[Vibrant General] jbacon617:
Yellow is video - red is right speaker, white is left speaker. What you don't get is stereo sound.
[Vibrant General] androidmonkey:
lol, "extensive" testing? Seriously? These cables are composite, the quality will NOT be any better from one to the other. If you have signal issues, then the cable may be defective.

BTW, the audio coming out of the phone is near useless with the 3.5 out. I have to increase my audio on the TV to near max in order to hear comfortably.
[Vibrant General] dbm0361:
Got mine from meritline.com works great and colors are correct cost 3 bucks lol its under ipod
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Sure it could differ cable to cable. This isn't a digital output.
[Vibrant General] IDtheTarget:
Actually, no, I personally don't know how that went but I'm interested in the cable. What went wrong?
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
None of the micro-USB to HDMI cables seem to work.
[Vibrant General] snkchaos:
Zune HD dock cables work

If your Zune HD owner with dock the Vibrant only needed 3 channel 3.5 mm. I found it out when I was watching some guy using the similar cable. Not HD though but it's a start.
[Vibrant General] snowdogging:
What do you guys use this for? I can't stand watching anything in standard definition anymore.
[Vibrant General] snkchaos:
There are times that we wanted watch the movie right away but my brother borrowed parts from my HTPC and I didn't want to convert the movies for the Zune HD.
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Has there been testing on this? I could be the case that the required hardware has never been activated and will be on a future update.
[Android Apps and Games] Train1:
I've got an idea for an Android app and wanted some feedback on it's plausibility/difficulty:

A real-time video overlay that recognizes the balls on a pool table and adds lines on the table showing the expected trajectory of all the objects based on variable cueball paths.

This would make a fantastic training tool for giving lessons. The physics are all trivial and my Evo has all the hardware required for it. I've wanted to build a webcam-aided system for a long time (like this: *link removed*) but a portable handheld version (i.e. Android app) is making my mouth water. That project uses a projector to draw the trajectories directly on a pool table - my idea is to just use the phone camera/display.

* the link won't paste, but search Hackaday dot com for "Digitally Assisted Billiards" for what I have in mind)
[Android Apps and Games] Lunatixz:
Lol had this idea six months ago... app in progress...should be finished by spring
[Android Apps and Games] dsMA:
Great idea...go for it...I want it lol

I swore I replied to this a couple of weeks ago lol

I LOVE this idea. I say go for it I would most certainly use it.

I love billiards and we finally got the garage clean enough to were we can actually use it lol. Hopefully this would bring my game waaaaaaaaaaay up.

Where can I get the my touch copy/paste from. I hate the vibrants.
[Vibrant General] demo23019:

I don't think OP is talking about a file manager. I think he is talking about copying and pasting text. I agree with the OP. I wanted the Mytouch copy/paste.

There is NO official 2.2 update for the Hero, and probably never will...

Thx michy once again.....

Gonna test it asap.

Hope it does not break my working bluetooth :D (mdeejay_froyo_sense_v2.2)

EDIT:

First,qiuck impression:good.

Best part (quick impression) better phone temp!

With a other kernel,hastarin,it is getting pretty hot after a while.

Only 26.5 celcius now,other kernel 32 celcius...talking about standby,not in use...

So pretty nice :D

please..thank you

difference in temperature: I think it's all about calibration... I cannot imagine that the battery stays in standby around 30 degrees while with the other kernel/build stays in the same situation (absolute standby, 24 degrees room) it shows only 26 degrees. With 3-7mA consumption... That is not that much energy that can make the battery so hot in a relative cold room...
