CarHomeLauncher

So basically the apk the OP graciously attached does not have the launcher just the app so the launcher is what is needed.

I tried this and it worked:

1: Install the CarHome.apk the OP provided

2: Install this CarHome Launcher (first rename it to end with .apk instead of .zip)

Thanks for the link majkeli
[Captivate Themes and Apps] IllegalOpcode:
Works like a charm.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] alphadog00:
Thanks for finding the answer - i rolled back to 2.1, but looking forward to finally using this.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
Im not doing something right. Changed the launcher to .apk but it keeps the zip look. Is it supposed to change or something because I can't install. Tried using Sideload wonder and it doesn't recognize me changing the launcher and I tried using Root Explorer and if I click on the launcher it goes inside the app?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] theMaginator:
Where are you renaming it? On your PC or on the phone? I reccomend you do it via Root Explorer
[Captivate Themes and Apps] domin8:
glad this is working now :) This phone cant continue to keep getting better can it?!

Using it and Liking it. Good work people!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
I originally renamed it on my pc and when I put it on my phone it didn't change. Didn't think it roils keep the.zip so renamed it and working now. Thanks.

Really like this app. First time using it and works great. Running froyo.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Shovelhead84:
After i got this working i did a nice little tasker profile. When the phone is plugged into the car charger (dock) it disables screen timeout and turns on BT. When the car BT is detected the phone launches the Car Home app...It finally feels complete
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Bear451:
Works great on mine running cognition 2.2. Thanks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Dave the Knave:
Love this. I like that it dims the screen even darker then the lowest setting possible on the phone so it doesn't blind me in the car. Now I just need to make a decent DIY mount... Anyone with a 2008+ Ford Focus and have any ideas? I'm thinking air vent mount above the radio

Noob question- do I place the CarHomeLauncher.zip in System/Apps and then rename it to a .apk?

Rename the zip to apk and install away.

Going to try it out on my way home today. Lets see how well it works.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] mobius911:
Got it running and I like the auto-activation feature on BT pairing. Is there any way to make this the default home screen while in use? For example, when I'm in Navigation I want to go back to the Car Home screen to make a phone call, rather than through the normal home screen. I can do that by backing out of Navigation but that kills the app.

I know some phones have a sensor (magnetic or electronic) to force the car screen as the home screen when docked. I don't know if we have a sensor (perhaps with the Samsung dock?), but it would seem there should be some way to do it manually.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Shovelhead84:
In my experience, once the Car Home app is launched it takes the place of the Home button action. If you press the home button on your phone the screen should return to the main Car Home screen. This is the default setting. I have actually ran Last.FM, My Tracks, and Camcorder all at the same time.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mobius911:
Thanks for that confirmation. Turns out I had 2 car docks loaded and I needed to make Google car home the default. Now the home button returns me to that screen until I exit the app.

[Droid X Themes and Apps] 13bgarli:
I recently purcheched the PSX4Droid app from the marketplace for my new Droid X running android 2.2. I've been trying to get ANY game to run correctly on it, even games that I've seen work great on a Droid X on youtube. So far I've tried Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories, Spyro, and Megaman X6. None of them work, it will boot up like a normal PSX game, and I can go so far as when it first starts rendering 3D, then the app freezes but sound still plays. I've restarted my phone 3 times, made sure I have the correct BIOS file, and have tried every file type this app supports, and it still dosn't work. Futher more, I know that my rips work because I've tried them on my PC with an emulator and it works fine.

I'd like to know to fix this problem and if anyone else is having it...

Thanks,

13bgarli

[Epic 4G Accessories] Grogck:
I was on Amazon picking up a couple of other accessories for the Epic the other day and decided to snag a cheapo case just to try it as well. I actually ordered the one you referred to as the 'Bar' case. But in reality I was actually shipped the 'Triangle' case (and I'm glad that's what I ended up with as I didn't even notice the bar across the front when I ordered it.) I used the link below:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003I8H0B8/ref=oss_product

Considering I only paid $3 for it (including shipping) I'm surprised at how nice it is, at least initially. It has the soft touch rubber feel which I love and didn't add a lot of bulk which I was worried about coming from the TP2. Another benefit is that it helps make it a lot less likely I'll accidentally bump the volume/camera buttons (like I'd already done several times.)

My favorite aspect of it though is that it gives the phone a good bit more rigidity. While the Epic never felt cheap or flimsy, I was a little unaccustomed to having a phone feel that 'loose' after coming from the rock solid tank that was the TP2. Having the case on eliminates virtually all the slight wiggles/flex I was experiencing previously and also make the slider mechanism flow more smoothly and not 'pop' quite as harshly.

The only drawback I'm seeing thus far though is that it won't work with the Samsung desktop dock. I'd gotten spoiled to coming home and having a dock to rest my phone in. But given Samsung's odd decision to put the charging port on the top it looks like I may have to either just go back to a regular charging cable or wait it out for some 3rd party dock options anyway.
[Epic 4G Accessories] weef:
do you have a link to a triangle case on ebay? all i see are bar cases
[Epic 4G Accessories] stomicron:
XDA's not allowing me to post a link but search ebay for item number 160493347179. I'm pretty sure it's that. Check that seller's store for multiple colors and also matte (look for "rubber" in the title) finishes. Just ordered a black rubber one myself.
[Epic 4G Accessories] lightsedge:
I think I have the bar case. I got it as part of a 6 item package from Ebay for $7.99. It seems pretty good, except I would rather have a case that does not cover the front surface at all (like the Seidio cases). The cut-outs are right except that they missed the LED light on the front. No issues with the slider either. I think I'll be pretty happy with it until I find a nice case, maybe the Seidio Active X.

As for the other stuff I got from ebay, the USB computer cable seems fine, but the wall charger makes my touchscreen go crazy. I haven't tried the car charger, but I don't have high expectations for it. The screen protectors I'm not using since the Epic has Gorilla Glass - hope it's as scratch resistant as I think.

Thanks I put it in Kies mode but still doesn't connecting said MTP driver can't install.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otivaeey:
The solution

This is the solution I got from http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/504-help-with-kies/

The Tab needs to be in "Kies mode" when connected for Kies to be able to work. To make this possible do this:

Unplug your GTab and go to Settings > Wireless & Network > USB settings

Select "Ask on Connection" -- this is the most flexible option.

When you connnec the GTab select Kies Mode and then click on "Mount" if the Mount button is displayed.

Start Kies if it doesn't start automatically, then it should work.

WARNING: Kies' initialization phase is currently buggy, at least on my 64-bit Windows 7 machines. You may need to click away 20-30 error messages and confirm that the application is allowed to make changes on your computer 10-15 times before it starts. Once the error and confirmation messages have stopped it seems to work OK, however.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitesurfer345:
Galaxy S + Kies

After a few minutes of trial and error here's what I did to get it working.

2) Applications -> Development -> Disable USB Debugging

3) Go to Home Scren

4) Plug into PC with Kies running, Kies should detect and connect

As mentioned above, Will you brick your HD2 if you keep flashing new ROM or Keep installing Android for many times?

Because recently i keep trying new ROMs and keep installing Android on my HD2... then call history or missed call record didnt keep in the phone everytime i make call or receive missed call, even i switch back to Window 6.5.

Numerous installation will it destroy your HD2???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0bmentality:
If i understand this correctly .. the answer is a VERY easy.. and resounding..

YES!!!!!

Ok now that the scary part is over.. let me explain why.. just like your battery can only be charged and discharged a certain amount of times.. your memory system can only be written and overwritten a certain amount of times...

Now first of all this amount might be 10,000,000 or it might be 10,000 or even a grand.. and there is really no way of knowing when it will finally just be a corrupted system that cannot be written on anymore..

But here once again is ANOTHER catch.. every time you call or text anyone it saves stuff into your phone.. call logs texts messages.. navigation settings gps position.. camera settings and pictures.. location settings from roaming even antenna search and location just from walking around your block.. or hell even sitting still and satellites moving out of range and antennas resetting there position of incoming information signature....

SO

Yes.. you can only write and re write a system "x" amount of times.. but reality is.. someone on a stock rom who has never flashed a single thing.. who is on market place alot , traveling alot.. taking lots of pics.. ect.. has probably approached this threshhold closer than you have.

And

Since we dont know it it will handle 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 megs of re write or 100.. there really isnt any point in worrying about it.

P.S.

Your ps3 remote.. will eventually stop charging.. your hardrive on your laptop will eventually crash.. your ipod will eventually be useless.. your dvr will eventually quit holding movies.. get where im going here? ReWriting damages stuff.. but we have NO way of knowing how much.. and youll probably upgrade before you ever have to :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whizzkid_cool:
Well-explained bro! Thanks for that... But i assume there are lot more ppl keep flashing new ROMs and androids to test each amazing development!

What bout you? ROM addicts? LOL...

But weird enough, my call logs dont keep records anymore! Any idea that i could solve this problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0bmentality:
If you mean it doesnt keep between flashes.. PIM is getting more and more useless and they need to either update or i think the lot of us are going elsewhere.. there are alot of solutions.

I used to be a rom addict... now im a hardreset addict.. which i guess is almost as bad.. but it seems most roms have hit a wall where the updates are person specific.. so it there isnt something in the log i want .. i just let it pass.. for instance i cant see moving from energys 216XXX rom for a while.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLAST3RR:
I'd just keep on flashing by heart.. What you are probably aiming for is called 'wear leveling', which indeed means blocks on the memory can be written a finite amount of times.

However, I believe that even with flashing your device daily, it will most likely not fail until you have had your new phone 2 years from now.. :)

And IF it fails because of bad blocks, just send it in for repair.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whizzkid_cool:

Then i do a Hardreset... Still no use... Any idea??

I was trying to buy the HTC Touch Pro T7274. I have my credit card processed by Yahoo! e-Commerce which was used by them on 8/19/2010. Later, the seller (waleedfaruq01 at yahoo dot com) contacted me that they have problem processing orders from credit cards, and would like me to send money order instead through Western Union. I rejected to proceed.

Today, tons of fraud charges showed up on my credit card. The bank called me up and I had to temporary block all transactions on the card while waiting for a new replacement.:mad:

I use Google to search for suspicious online merchant whenever they are not eBay or Amazon. Hopefully, this will show up to prevent others from falling in the same trap. Shame on Yahoo! e-Commerce. If anyone knows how to report this to Yahoo! e-Commerce, please tell me how to do that.
