1.0 Final is uploaded. Go download crazy as i hear NRGZ is uploading new roms right now. The highest amount of downloads for EXCT was for the first version at 1200 and i want to see that broken. Do me proud people.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] angusc:
Thanx M3PH for your persistence on this project! I have downloaded 1.0 but only to test out the WindowsLive reg file. Since finding this thread, your thread, I have built up quite a few of the reg and other program settings to use in XDA_UC, i prefer to stick with the .Reg files rather than the CABs but that is just my preference and others will be different.

Flashing Energy ROMS has never been so much fun, thanx mate!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mitja12:
I was searching in this forum but couldn't find solution for my problem. Is there any way I could export wifi settings and later import them after a new ROM flash - I mean with passwords. I'm using NRGZ's Touch of glass. thanks for help in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] yeoldgreat1:
I'll get in before the others do. Read the FAQ in post #3.

Use this link to find out which settings to use.

Just edit the example file to match your SSID and password.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mitja12:
thanks for answer, I'll digg into it
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] M3PH:
Thank you and no worries. The windows live reg file does work but you will need to change all the references to my email address and then run the program to input your password. Once done manually sync your mail once and Sense will create the mailbox entry on the email tab.

I have spoken to fishawy (maintainer of the energy rom FAQ) and he has added a link to this thread to said FAQ. So i expect many more lazy people just posting and not reading the first page. With this thread being only 18 pages at the moment it's not exactly long and if you read the first page it answers almost all the basic questions. So if it is obvious a poster has not read post 3 i'm just not going to respond but if i do the response will be "Read post 3" and nothing more

Compatibilty issues

Ok guys and girls, Just a quick note about the new energy roms (both 219xx and 23xxx) dated November 30 2010 and later. EXCT is not 100% compatible with them because NRGZ28 has included alot of EXCT tweaks into the rom from this version forward. I will be updating the package in the next few days to reflect this. See this post for which tweaks are include and thus need to be removed.

I guess i can call this a sort of success :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poolphreak:
I suppose you could call me a little jaded, but that's just what I have to live with.:D

Question this morning is this......

A person browses the Rom threads (especially HTC update threads) or anything else that has a file somewhere in it, and you're bound to see countless posts that say nothing more then

downloading now

Why? Why do so many people post that they're "downloading now"?

That's like posting that I"m "breathing now" or "I'm typing now"

Wouldn't it make more sense (no pun intended) to download the damn thing, install whatever, then comment on something at that point?

What exactly is the point of telling the entire community that you're downloading a file? We know the file is there, we know in order for you to get the file, you have to download it, so what is the purpose?

Anxiously awaiting the learned people of this site to be able to enlighten me on this curious practice, so as I may wonder about something else:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
I don't know. After an initial post of a thread, I would want to know that people are at least responding. Also when someone comments it boosts the thread toward the front of the forum where it is seen by even more people, a la free advertising.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenewguy821:
So basically, "I'm Downloading this" is the new "BUMP" :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00_MACKIE_00:
"i am gonna try this..downloading now"... you mean these kind?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uniquenameevo:
Reading your post now. I'll reply in a minute.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rutter9:
Well lets say you developed a rom that you were proud of and put a lot of work into...

Would you rather see someone's excitement to download something you created or just a thread of silence?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poolphreak:
Why should there be a thread of silence? Wouldn't you expect people to download the ROM and check it out and THEN post their comments? You've also got all the people asking questions before they download it too. If I developed a ROM, I know I wouldn't want my thread cluttered up with a bunch of people telling me they're downloading the file.. well duh:D I would want people to download the ROM and post back some constructive criticism, or some high praise, or a bug report, or some suggestions. Now

THAT

would make me feel good.

My question was why wouldn't a person download the file, install it and then report back with a comment?

A person can download a file in a few minutes, backup their data in say 10 mins, install the ROM (using a ROM in this case) and restore their data in 10 mins, play with it for 10 mins, THEN they can comment on the ROM.

Seems to me, it's a nothing but cluttering up the thread. If a person has a ROM, we KNOW you have to download the file if you want to check it out. Why tell us? Save your post for a 1/2 hour later after you've installed it and then tell us your comments or questions or issues.

I don't know about anyone else, but when I read a thread, I like to read informative information in it, not wade thru countless posts of I"m downloading the damn thing:)

You ever see a HTC update release thread... people in these are so foaming at the mouth, they go one step further... besides telling us they're DOWNLOADING the file, a few minutes later, we get the BREAKING NEWS that they are at 70% of the download.

People are going to post as they wish, my question was simply to find out if anyone had a valid reason for doing so, so that I may get my beauty sleep tonight:)

This is a bit of a satirical take on the question, so let's keep the comments light. :D

So far, we have these conspiracies for the "downloading now" posts ....

1. Do it to bump the post - highly unnecessary IMO - I'm a firm believer in threads standing on their own

2. A sign of interest - shouldn't everyone also post "I'm reading your thread" to let everyone know they're reading the thread too?

3.

Hello Experts,

Now I'm modifying the bottom bar of Sense UI like Slate theme of Sense HD Rom.

So I can replace some icon and images of Rosie.apk and successfully flash on my desire.

But I cannot change the path of the scroller (or page indicator.. I don't know how I should say this..) like the snapshot that I attached below.

It still moves as following the original path of Sense....Hmm

If somebody know how to modify the path of the scroller, could you tell me how to do that????
[Desire Themes and Apps] shoemeistah:
I don't know how to change the path, but maybe it looks better if you just remove (make it 100% transparent) the indicator.

Which is inside framework-res.apk.
[Desire Themes and Apps] rleon:
Thank you for the reply....

If nobody know how to change the path, I have no choice but to make it 100% transparent for this indicator...
[Desire Themes and Apps] L0cke:
Hey, we have figured this out over in the Hero forums here.

It should be the same values that need to be changed. Page 2 and 3 give you everything you need. But basically you need to decompile 'Rosie.apk' and locate the integers.xml in \res\values-normal (might be different for the Desire). Then set 'scroll_y1' and 'scroll_y3' equal to 'scroll_y2'

Recompile, push to the phone and boom :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] rleon:
Oh.. I check this today.. Thank you so much I will try it.
[General Topics] Oo Alias oO:
Hey - Not sure where to post this.

Anyway, does anyone else have problems with the voice search on Android? I have the HD2 with an Android ROM.

I boot up Google Navigation and use the voice search option, the box comes up and I speak, for example: "Keele University". Now, I have a pretty deep voice and im not the cleanest of speakers, but its mad!

I'll get "Navigate to Hello", or something stupid :| Now I know this isnt perfect but damn, how is "Keele University" close to "Hello"? Or, "Wynbunbury"... "Navigate to ocsh".

So yeah, is it just me or does it really suck atm =/
[Vibrant General] natecglenn:
Being a previous samsung owner (behold 2) I don't think that the first galaxy s line will get it. Why??? Cause samsung is already in the process of making a second galaxy s line. Just like in the armed forces how they send out the army first(vibrant, epic, captivate) then the navy, then air forces. Well that's what samsung is doing. If you think I'm just spitting out bull check out the new galaxy s phone sprint is about to get. It is keyboard less and is coming out months after the epic 4g. Why would they need 2 galaxy s phones when they already have 1 with a keyboard and an evo???

I truly think we are gonna get froyo in october but nothing after that. I'm not mad though I'm just gonna get a g2 but this is crazy how phone companies operate these days all due to android fragmentation.

[Vibrant General] tjhart85:
Meh, the dev scene should be fully up and running by that point. Personally at that point I couldn't care less if Samsung doesn't update.

They've already proven that they don't give a **** about their appearance in the world (really, you ship a broken phone to four carriers in the US and to ~30 other countries around the world and expect anyone to take you seriously), so let them continue to shoot themselves in the foot.

Just my $.02

[Vibrant General] Col.Kernel:
And a HUGE boo hoo back at the 4 crybabies above this post.

Samsung is building a reputation of not supporting their products after the sale.

This is something the community needs to be kept aware of so other people don't make the mistake of buying their hardware with its good looking specs.

I'm fed up with companies releasing product (or more like the product escaping) before it is finished as well.

And as a final comment to the 4 whiners above, if you don't like this thread no one forced you to read it. Do something productive and contribute to the community, even if it is just a warning to future buyers not to buy from a given company instead of trying to tear down what someone else is doing.

Nothing wrong with wanting Gingerbread, and expecting it, if the hardware supports it.

Samsung should manage its product support better. Way better.

Sorry,but I don't know very weel english

I want save all my messages on my pc.I want read they not only on the Hd2

I just try with Pim backup, but I can't read the meassages after the backup with some program

I want do something like that i did when I had the Nokia N70. Pc suite save all mesagges in ecxel file.

For me the only choose important is that I can read the messages on the pc,not only with the smartphone.Not important if they are in a txt,xml,doc file

Scusate ma non so benissimo l'inglese.

Io vorrei salvare tutti i miei messaggi sul pc in modo che possa leggerli non dal cellulare

Ho già provato con Pim backup ma il file non riesco ad aprirlo con nessun programma.

Cercavo qualcosa come nokia pc suite,che salvava i messaggi su excel.

In pratica l'unica cosa che mi importa è poterli leggerli sul pc da un file,poco importa se txt,xml,doc o quant'altro

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Hi!

I have been trying a couple of locksreens, but somehow I realized, I don't need them at all, when I turn on my phone, I want full functionality, not just a lockscreen.

So I found "Nolock" on the market, which is almost perfect, only problem is that it unlocks with hardware buttons as well. Perfect solution would be to only unlock with a tap on the turned off screen, which cannot be delivered in any other way but your finger(e.g: in your pocket it shouldn't work, thanks to the capacitive touchscreen), and hardware buttons wouldn't react.

Is it possible somehow?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
I can't belive nobody is interested! :(

Bump!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
you will need a willing developer to use the source code from NoLock then add the features you want to it

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Well, no lock developer tells it's not possible to disable volume buttons. I wonder if this problem could be solved at all.

Hi All

I have a VodaFone branded Magic handset. The phone is unlocked and I have a Orange UK contract sim inserted. I have followed all the threads to try and get 3G/mobile web working but no joy.

The phone is the following setup;

Sapphire pvt 32B ship s-on G

Hboot-1.33.0004 (Sapp100000)

cpld-10

radio - 2.22.19.261

Apr 8 2009

I want to use this phone with MS Exchange connection but the OS version is 1.5 and therfore Exchange is not supported.

I cant connect the handset to HTC Sync as the VodaFone branding has this locked down.

Can anyone advise me on what I need to do. Does the rooting guide unlock the USB HTC Sync? If so what is the most stable ROM to flash to allow Exchange and Orange UK data?

Thanks....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slideaway:
Any ideas???
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
If mobile data isn't working, you haven't entered the correct APN settings. Find the correct APN settings for Orange (contract), then enter them in Settings > Wireless Networks > Mobile Internet (It's not that exactly, you'll be able to find it).

Also a lack of exchange support is not due to Vodafone 'locking down' the OS. HTC sync is only included in HTC ROMs, the Vodafone ROM is based off Google's sources, not HTC's so obviously it isn't there.

My suggestion would be to root your device and flash a Froyo ROM, from Eclair onwards Android has supported MS Exchange ootb.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazxda:
I've successfully scripted the automated creation of a file structure into which the contents of BOOT.IMG, SYSTEM.IMG, DATA.IMG, CACHE.IMG and SD-EXT.IMG are extracted. The script also creates a valid update-script file under ./META-DATA/....

The only issue I have is that I'm using windows so the .IMG files extracted as a yaffs file system, looses the original file permissions. I need someway to recreate the permissions in the update.zip.

Thats all.

Having a way of converting a nandroid backup to an update.zip means you can very easily cook custom roms from a nandroid backup, and port ROMs across phones using a portable .ZIP format.

I have problems with facebook updates.

back button

my back and home button were not working properly, went to sprint store on monday and got the run around from a really un motivated sprint rep and was on lunch so I did not want to waste all day. Then I used two other properly functioning epics since, went back today and simply demanded a new one and it works great now. Dont mess around, these phones cost way too much money, if it dont work like it should run that bad boy back and get a new one.
[Epic 4G General] evancg:
I'm trying to get an idea of how bad the "defective" back buttons are. I'm switching from a Captivate to an Epic and the Captivate capacitive buttons could be a tad touchy, so I'm kind of used to it.

I'd say my back button (on my just received Epic) registers 70 - 90% of the time - sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. That's probably slightly lower than on my Captivate, but not by much (as far as having to press buttons twice now and then).

Are people with "working" back buttons nearing a 95% - 100% response detection?
[Epic 4G General] skandranon314:
We had a epic with a bad back button. If you have one you will notice a signifigant diffrent from the menu, home, and search buttons. If they all respond about the same then you don't have a bad one.
[Epic 4G General] evancg:
Thanks for the information. The response on the back button is noticably worse than the others (and again, coming from the Captivate I'm already used to the somewhat touchy reaction of the buttons in general).

I requested a replacement from Amazon - we'll see if it's improved.
[Epic 4G General] wheezyfbaby:
For those devices with less than stellar response time from the capacitive buttons will this become worse over time or stay the same?

I'm running the latest Froyo on my Evo (3.29.651.5), and I cannot install the text-to-speech library needed by Google translate, TopVoiceControl, and others. When trying to locate the library in the market, it reports pname:com.google.tts not found, and if I try to load via AppBrain, it also says the app is not found.

This used to work under previous ROMs, and I'm pretty sure it worked for a Froyo ROM. I've tried a hard reset, and that still didn't allow me to install. Anyone know where I can get the APK to load directly? Other ideas?
