As this seems to be a dialer problem for example, check out the alternative ones from the market, one may cover what you miss...

For example dialer one. It's at least way faster than the stock one...

Oh, and +1 to LauncherPro (Plus), unless you use Touchwiz widgets.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FlorianO:
Thanks for the tip, will look into it.

Well, I'm not so sure it's not rom dev since I'm not sure how much TouchWiz is embedded with ROM, if there are "vanilla" ROMs without TouchWiz or other cooked ROMs with other (better) interfaces, etc. etc.

So you tell me if it's rom dev or if it's not :)

P.S. And yes, "HTC Sense" was just an example, maybe not the best. Maybe I should have said "a saner interface than TouchWiz"...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zenkinz:
the dialer found in froyo rom will be able to search in the middle of the name, instead of just starting.

you can run launcherpro over touchwiz although you probably want to remove the touchwiz widgets as they are not accessible outside of touchwiz. (which means you need to have your rom rooted). But you can't remove touchwiz completely (unless things has changed in the last 1 month) as it's integral component to feature/function beyond shell interface (e.g. you need this if you want to use kies to connect to your galaxy)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FlorianO:
Not sure which Froyo you are talking about, but the test above is on the XXJPH I have installed off this very forum (and seems "ho-hum" in terms of stability on my device).

Anyway, will take a look at LauncherPro -- maybe it will alleviate some of the issues with TouchWiz

Unfortunately, it isn't. Is there a way to hack it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
Theres already a Bounty for porting HTC Sense/the full ROM to our phones. Search, got around $1000+ between both threads (one over in the other subforums), but we need someone to port it. There is someone who has semi done it, just need him to release it publicly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
if you really want something similar to htc sense then check out this awsome mod from JAguirre1231 here , its the closest thing to sense (at least for now) with azreils sense theme. Or if you want stock android, you can check this which includes stock everything but only 2.1 (no its not a port, it still has touchwiz framework but everything is stock even the phone app) . Hopefully devs are working on cyanogen and once thats out, you will get what you want. until then you can use these

Hope i helped
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Whosdaman:
HTC Sense is consider warez on XDA if it is not on an HTC device. HTC already threatened to sue acouple of developers on the Motorola Droid for porting it.

When I start typing 626 the equivalent for "mam" I get more suggestions.

first is "mama".

I also get a girl with the name "oana" because 626 numbers also equals "oan".

[Omnia II i920 CDMA] troybuilt:
my question is this. I just got a new omnia 2 i920 and there are several problems with this model that it would take a long time to post them all but a few I would love to see fixed on my phone through reg edit or hacked skins.

first problem I have is the qwerty keyboard. no matter what I do my messaging speed on this phone is very slow just to type out a few words takes too long. I also own a captivate and the keyboard on it is way better and more accurate. I can't type very fast at all on my omnia 2 whatsoever I find myself using the stylus just to send a message. on the captivate no issues and I can type very fast on. is there a way to change the skin on it? I'm seeing the letters closely grouped together unlike the captivate layout is much better and faster. i see 2 issues that is the culprit in this the touch responsiveness and the grouped up letters which I changed to the available layouts on this phone to Samsung and swype. I've changed the responsiveness in the settings and in reg edit from 40 to 0 it seem to help a little. can a new skin layout fix this issue?

second problem is the increased ring. as I get a phone call it takes like 5 seconds for this phone to reach the highest level volume. is there a way to turn this off?

any help on this will be very appreciated.
[Nexus One General] mkslt4:
I want to leave AT&T for T-Mobile, i currently have an ATT nexus one, just bought a tmo n1, and i'm thinking of ways of getting out of my contract without paying the etf. as of now i have one theory and i want to run it by you guys, see if anyone has any thought....

1) call at&t and cancel my data plan. i currently have unlimited data, and i was just going to tell them i no longer have my nexus one and i want to end my data plan.

2) set up my tmo n1 (before i pop in my sim card) and turn of all data connectivity. after i set everything up id pop in my sim. now when i changed my moms phone she got an automatic text message saying that her phone requires a change in the data plan, so this is where the next few steps are important

3)section 7 of the CTIA Consumer Code for Wireless Service mandates that any changes to my contract are "materially adverse" allow me to get out of contract within 14 days, so if i get said text from at&t (see step 2) i should be able to walk out. right?

now for att's whole mandating a data plan they are mandated for.... "Compatible data-enabled wireless device required." as said in the wireless customer agreement under "What Data And Messaging Services Does AT&T Offer?"

based on this factor i have three arguments, 1) this device isn't compatible with at&t's 3g network, 2) i haven't used any data (see step 2 above), and 3) how can my device be considered a compatible data enabled devices when your own technical support team offers no support? (true story, i've had to call them in the past for help with apn settings)

so what do you guys think? any good?
[Nexus One General] britoso:
1) don't think they will let you drop the data plan as you got the phone subsidized from them with a 2 year data contract.

2) you need to enter a valid tmo APN

3) don't understand

All the best switching...I was lucky to be out of contract when i did...and had a tmo n1
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
It doesn't matter if the phone only uses edge, ATT still requires the mandatory data plan. So that argument will be worthless.

I'm not sure you really have any way out without paying the fee.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
If the network is unusable/bad, you could perhaps argue that.
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
Or just run a torrent on the unlimited data so they kick you off.
[Nexus One General] mkslt4:
i might torrent, and no, i never subsidized a phone. i was just locked into contract

[General Questions and Answers] Ysosrslawl:
Hello All,

I r a noob, there i said it! I'm looking to extend my knowledge on modifying cell phones, in particular my HTC Droid Incredible.

I've done some searching and was able to find resources and tutorials on my own for rooting my phone even after the 2.2 update and I'm using unrevoked 3.21 with SkyRaider 3.0. On my phone I have ROM manager, SetCPU, LCD density changer, etc.

What I would like to know more about is radio 2.15.....(the newest one) kinxkernal "told you so", launcher pro plus and the difference of unrevoked 3.21 and forever.

I would really like to learn more about these things one so I can use this information to tweak my phone to my liking and two to be able to help others out who have the same if not similar questions.

Just point me in the right direction and with some help I'll learn it quite easy (I hope lol).

Thanks in advance!!

[EVO 4G General] teomorell:
I just installed 3.29.651.5 and to my surprise, I am finally able to connect to our servers using VPN. This is really great.

I was not able to use PPTP with 3.26 nor with CM6. I will stay with 3.29 until VPN works on CM6.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
I wonder what changed? i've never been able to connect to my company VPN either. maybe this will fix it.
[EVO 4G General] teomorell:
I read the release notes and nothing mentions changes to VPN. I have not flashed the new radio.
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
What about l2tp?
[EVO 4G General] liamaa:
really? with pptp encryption enabled? it was the first thing I tested after I got the update this morning and it wasn't working for me.
[EVO 4G General] ChristopherBurg:
I just tried connection to my L2TP VPN server at home and it's a no-go even with the latest update.

Maybe I just have bad luck though, I'm really hoping that's the case.
[EVO 4G General] dwertz:
If you are using Cisco VPN use this for the tun.ko. and VPNC. btedeski made this but the source code was not released yet so its based off the 3.26 kernel. It works. It locks up when disconnect but thats fine by me until the source code is released

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8285195&postcount=5
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
Is there any way a guru can explain to someone like myself, who doesn't even know what tun.ko is, how he can connect to his work's l2tp vpn, or if it's even possible?

Running the previous froyo ota stock rooted with king's bfs #9 kernel...
[EVO 4G General] dwertz:
It all depends on how his work is set up. For example my work uses Cisco IPSec with Group Authentication. I need to use VPNC and am required to install the tun.ko (specific to the kernel) and busybox symlink and some tunneldroid files to get mine to work http://sourceforge.net/projects/tunneldroid/files/
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
If I gave you precise details on the work set up, would you be able to point it me in the right direction?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] dwertz:
I only figured out the IPSec. I assume the L2TP is self explanatory. If he has IPSec then I can point you in the right direction. He will need to get the pcf file that contains all the connection information.

You could install the tun.ko. I know most of the rom makers put this in. Right now its a so so tun.ko because they source code for the kernel is not released but it does work.
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
It is IPSec. And I have been using various custom kernels with tun.ko compiled (Netarchy's and Kingclick's.) The problem is that I could never connect to the vpn server.

I'll ask the guy for extra details and that file.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] dwertz:
Put the tun.ko in the /system/lib/modules/ by doing the following

>adb push /sdcard/tun.ko /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

-------install the tun.ko

#insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

-------check to see if it installed

#lsmod

----this should show up if installed

tun 10734 0 - Live 0xbf000000000

I replaced and added these files to the /system/lib/

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tunneldroid/files/.

> adb remount

> adb shell

------backup originals

# cd /system/lib

# cp libcrypto.so libcrypto-orig.so

# cp libssl.so libssl-orig.so

------replace files

> adb push libcrypto.so /system/lib/

> adb push liblzo.so /system/lib/

> adb push libssl.so /system/lib/

install VPNC apk

Grab the pcf file from the Cisco VPN on the PC open it with notepad and decrypt the group password use this or just do a search for a decryptor Get the rest of the info from the pcf and fill in the VPNC.

Hope this helps. With the current one I believe it locks up the phone when VPN is disconnected. I think its because this tun.ko is not based on the source code since it has not been released
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
I don't think they are running Cisco. I think it's open vpn.
[EVO 4G General] dwertz:
If they are running open vpn then install the tunnel and files from prior, also add the openvpn file. Download openvpn installer and openvpn settings.

I was just wondering why there isn't a native gmail widget? It seems pretty logical that google would develop one. I have evil's sense which comes with a mail widget but it doesn't work very well and there are still two apps which means i get two notifications. If i turn off the gmail notification the mail widget app doesn't push the email very fast where as the gmail does.
[Nexus One General] cymru:
Did you try contacting someone at Google and asking them. They would have more of an idea
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:

[Nexus One General] vwauditech:
I've been wondering the same thing. I wish there was a Gmail widget like the mail in Sense. I like some of the features in sense, but don't have much use for most of their widgets.

What widgets do you prefer for Gmail that don't download everything a second time apart from Gmail.
[Nexus One General] Makaijin:

I got better reception since I updated to 2.2. I kinda want to ditch my Incredible for something with a keyboard, since I kinda miss the keyboard of my old phone, but there really isn't any phones out there that Verizon offers that has as good of a camera as the DI. droid 2 looks intresting, but I'm not sure if there is ROMs available for it.

[Droid Incredible General] foolish36:
I actually did. I started with the original Droid and the switched to the x. I just sold my x picked up an inc. And made over a hundred bucks. The x was to big and boring. With the bootloader problems and all the other stuff I had to switch. I'm liking the incredible though so i think it was a better choice
[Droid Incredible General] rfarrah:
No Way! Simply no advantage in that.
[Droid Incredible General] webschooner:
I did. I owned a Droid from Day one (after a G1 from Day one). I bought the DX within days after it came out, but found it a bit too large, but the deal-breaker was that the speaker was too weak. I use Google maps and navigation a lot in the car, and the speaker was inadequate. It is a common complaint about the DX in forums. The original Droid has a very robust speaker. The Dinc speaker is very adequate.

So I bought an Incredible, and am very happy with it. The size factor is perfect for me. The screen is gorgeous, it's a fast processor, and the Dinc is light and svelte. My only complaint is that I don't like Sense. I use Launcher Pro Plus, but Sense still interferes with it to some extent, plus interferes to some degree with Pure Calendar Widget, plus IMHO, the HTC dialer, contact system, and call log suck.

However, all in all, I like the Incredible a lot, and am glad I ditched the DX for it. I am considering rooting it to go Vanilla and get rid of Sense.
[Droid Incredible General] coolbry95:
My mother has the x and it is just to big for me plus the screen isnt as nice as the inc. The bloatware on the x is unbelievable too. I love sense without it idk what i would do. X's ways of doing things are weird to me. My moher also wants the inc.
[Droid Incredible General] mbsmd:
I know what you mean about Sense. I actually like the way it handles system settings and I don't mind the calendar too much, but the call/dialer/contact system is kludgy.

I use Launcher Pro Plus and the LPP calendar widgets in place of Pure and HTC widgets. Calendar Pad (free or paid) also is something you may like. Give it a try. Smooth Calendar (free) might be worth a look, too.

Dialer One (free) brings back some functionality of the generic Android dialer and call log and it's highly configurable.

I also found a link on these forums somewhere for the standard Android keyboard .apk which can be installed and used instead of the Sense keyboard (I prefer the generic over the Sense keyboard myself).

With these modifications, I'm happy with Sense. The Sense browser is a big improvement over the generic Android browser (especially in the way text copy/paste is handled) and both the stock and cooked Sense ROMs are more stable and have fewer bugs/broken features in my opinion than the AOSP ROMs like Cyanogenmod or Ruby. I currently use Virtuous 3.01 with the battery optimized kernel.
