Somewhere around here there is a post about a dsp manager that works wonderfully. You have to be a little more audio savvy though. Just search for dsp manager.

[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
Is there a editor for the android systems like there was for the WM devices. Something that allows you to change system settings .ie turn of proximity sensor. I used Astro but it didn't save my changes.

gsm.proximity.enable=false

I changed it to true and it didn't save it and I removed it completely and it didn't save it. I just need to be able to change some system stuff.
[HTC Aria General] tacitapproval:
Sure, any terminal will do this, but you need to be rooted and have superuser access.
[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
I am rooted and have superuser . I have tried astro and root explorer. S o how do I disable proximity. Someone please help.
[HD Mini General] HeadHunterCZ:
Hi, is there any way how to edit XT9 words on PC? I know about the et9MyWords.exe app in WM, but I want something more comfortable...

Thx

EDIT: Ok, I've found that editing HTCMDB.txt from Windows directory does the job... :-)
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
Nice. Thanks for this info.
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
How do you edit and save HTCMDB.txt file? It's a system file found under Windows folder. Won't allow modification of this file.

Any work around?
[HD Mini General] ledavi:
htc x9 edit

i used total commander (explorer dose not allow you to modify system files) to copy the file to sd card (otherwiswe wont let you edit it) edit+save and then copy to windows folder (overwritting) and that s it
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
I was able to do it using Total Commander. But it doesn't seem to work. The additional words i put in there were not recognized. And the edited file with more words is only half the size of the original file. What went wrong?
[HD Mini General] ledavi:
in fact i've translated part of the words allready existing in the file (takes some time to do them all manually) and it worked thow i did not take notice of the final file size
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
I can't add new words to the list? Only change existing words?

[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Can anyone help explain to me how to get psx 4 droid working on x10. I have downloaded the lite version of the emulator and paid for the psx rom buddy.

I have downloaded worms world party and air hocky through the rom buddy and as soon as i try and lauch them the screen flashs black and then returns to the screen where you choose which game to load.

Am i missing some data or info? Iv tried emailing the devs directly for both psx 4 droid and psx rom buddy and not had a responce from either.

When trying to download command and conquer after a while the screen goes black, nothing responds and only way to regain control of my phone is removing then reinserting the battery.

If anyone could supply clear instructions or point me in the right direction it would be much appriciated.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Does anyone have any ideas on this atall?
[XPERIA X10 General] Keshukas:

[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Problem solved now, anyone know how to get the sound less choppy while playing games? Iv got the screen refresh set at 30 but it gets quite bad sometimes.

Can anyone recomend any good games that obviously require MT please. I never had a ps1 as a kid :(
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
You mean "don't" require MT. :)

PSX emulator for android
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Lol yeah oops my bad...

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 General] bkhams:
Most games need multi-touch to play. If you have a Wii remote, download the wii remote app from the market and then you should be able to play all games
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm gonna give it ago tomorow and if it works I'll be looking into getting a wii controller esp for games. This has gotta be the best way round lack of MT for now.

When the update for DNLA update is out will be able to use it to play games on a DNLA tv?

I really hope this will be possible, a completely wireless gaming experience with an x10 at the heart of it.
[G1 Accessories] Kryogen:
Hi..since my oem battery 's slowly dying, i'm looking for a replacement one, with the same size as the original, but with more mAH..which one has the highest capacity?
[G1 Accessories] stevendeb25:
i just ordered one off ebay for £8.95 gbp 2400mah thats double the standard battery.
[G1 Accessories] cicciopanzarotto:
credo che senza cambiare la scocca sia da 1700/1800mha o se no le trovi anche da 3900mha ma a quel punto diventa troppo grande il dream

*i think that without change the back cover you should take a 1700/1800mha battery or if you want to change the back cover you can find also 3900mha battery
[G1 Accessories] legend221:
1400mAh, a must have for any HTC Dream/G1 user
[G1 Accessories] jessejoe:
The popular name brand 1400 mAh is the Seido: http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi14tmg1.htm

They list for $45 (I know...) ...the trick is that if you do not *have* to have the same size battery, you can get more capacity for the same money with a little bit more thickness - I'm thinking the 2600 mAh Seido, or cheaper for an off-brand one.

But if you need original size this means you're picky :) and you probably don't want to cheap out on a battery that's going to give worse life than the one it replaces.
[G1 Accessories] Kryogen:
Naaw, the g1 is already thick as-is, i already have a thick 1600 mah battery (unbranded)...with that it doesn't even fit in my pockets xD i only use it when i want to tether on wifi ;D

Are you saying that seidio batteries are worse than the original? if so, i'd go with these ones!

http://www.amazon.com/Battery-1400mAh-T-Mobile-Android-Phone/dp/B0030BLEPQ/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_b

Still 1400mah each and..they're only $7!

Mind if they ship in italy? :/

Mmm...gia 1600mah è grossa il doppio, addirittura 3900 credo renderebbe il telefono un bel mattone XD

1600 mah is double-size already, think 3900mah would be a brick xD
[G1 Accessories] jessejoe:
No, I was saying that the Seidio batteries are what many people use. They just cost a lot.

Thanks for the pointer to the other ones; I will try those out too.
[Captivate General] Jirv311:
I just flashed Cognition 2.2 Beta 4 and while it's not really stated anywhere, I'm guessing the startup sound was turned off. I personally like a startup sound and have a custom one I'd like to use but can't figure out how to get it to work. I see in /system/etc there is PowerOn.snd and no PowerOn.wav like I thought it should be. Is there another place to turn this back on?

Thanks!
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
PowerOn.wav is what was removed. if you have a custom sound, just name it PowerOn.wav and drop it in there.
[Captivate General] Jirv311:
Hmmm, then I wonder if there is a size restriction. I did just that and no sound.
[Captivate General] Jirv311:
EDIT: Nevermind. I copied the file over again and it works just fine. Thanks for the reassurance. :D
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
If I flash my phone using odin and screw up. Will tmobile replace it? I want to flash the hardware locked fix for my phone because I can't get it to download mode without using adb. But what if my phone gets bricked by that fix, the only solution is to replace the phone right?
[Vibrant General] geocepe:
If you brick your phone with Odin it does void the warrantee. We all like to mod our phones but if we mess it up it is our fault. Besides these phones are really hard to brick. My opinion to you is if you dont feel comfortable doing something you may not want to do it. My opinion is if you brick your phone you are s#@^ out of luck as far as returning it. This forum is really good at helping though. Im sure if you do brick it someone can help you
[Vibrant General] ipeench:
saying things like that will just get people yelling at you.

if you need help with fixing it i can do my best to help you but i need to know what state your phone is in.

does the phone turn on?

when you turn it on what does it do?

does it hang at the vibrant screen but still make the start up noise?
[Vibrant General] DarkAgent:
Will they replace it? Yeah probably. Are they liable to replace it? No. However if the phone is bricked sending it in for a replacement is not as bad as people may want you to think.

When someone sends in a phone for replacement,

T-Mobile sends it to Samsung who then send out a used replacement. The only costs incurred to either party are shipping and labor costs which are minute compared to the goodwill they just built with a customer. Neither Tmo or Samsung are out of a phone because they simply fix your bricked phone and send it as a replacement to someone else.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
I still haven't done anything to my phone because I'm really scared I might brick it. my phone is a hardware locked, so what I really want to do is flash the fix for the hardware locked phones. But what If it bricks my phone? Then there's no way i could go to download mode because I can't use adb anymore. What will I do if that possibility happen?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
Yes I'm not comfortable in flashing my phone, that's why I haven't done the update yet. But I really want the update that's why I'm asking if I can get a new phone. If only my phone is not a hardware locked I already flashed the JI6
[Vibrant General] geocepe:
What have you done to your phone so far? Root? Flash a rom? anything?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
none. all stock. I'm really afraid because there's a possibility that flashing the hardware fix might brick my phone.

if a phone gets bricked, can i still use the adb? That's the only way I can go to download mode.
[Vibrant General] geocepe:
I have heard that some people after the OTA are no longer hardware locked. I cannot confirm or deny this as mine is not locked. I myself am not comfortable with Odin so I wont do anything with it. I have heard to many people bricking phones using it. There are some other links in the forums on how to get into download mode on a locked phone. If I were you I would try those ways first to see if you can get into download mode before trying the upgrade.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
I really have tried going to download mode and the only way that works for me is by adb. anyway, thanks for the reply. I'll just give up and will not update. I really don't want to risk my phone.
[Vibrant General] Moped_Ryder:
I dont blame you.

I did the bootloader fix on my hardware locked phone (wife's). I figured this OTA may brick it and Im screwed, but the next update, and the next may also brick it.

Figure 2.2 is somewhere down the road. That may brick it too.

Thats why I took the chance on flashed the fix. Just my .02
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
Good for you, so your locked phone is now working great?

And yeah I've thought of that one, the froyo. What if that one comes and it needs a JI6 ROM. if that happens i'll contact t-mobile.
[Vibrant General] Moped_Ryder:
Yeap HW locked phone good to go now.

I did the "test" file first. That worked fine through odin, so I went back into download mode via adb and flashed the fix.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
What test file? I didn't see that one.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Silver_77:
Today I tried to use this app, but seems that X10 is not Netfilter-enabled kernel ready!! Is there a solution?

What other software do you recommend?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] azian_advanced:
I use PDAnet. It works via USB cable only since Bluetooth DUN is not supported in 1.6.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] mohdameer:
look for barnacle
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] MacDrunk:
best wifi tether app is bernacle wifi tether but you need to have you phone rooted
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] wingz85:
Barnacle all the way!!! Perfect tethering app never had a problem and very easy to use. I couldnt find it on the market when i installed it a couple of months ago so Google is your friend :)

For settings, if the default ones dont work search XDA, im sure i got mine off the forum somewhere.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Samsunguy:
Just a question but in the next desire builds does anybody know if things like 720p video recording will be working etc. because of the new kernel code that was recently released?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nismo300zx:
only time will tell
[Captivate Themes and Apps] matt310:
I am really happy with the Captivate with the exception of the bottom keys that are selectively responsive...especially the back key which often takes several presses to register just one. Since Android and many of the apps have menu designs that dig down through multiple pages, the back button is the one I use the most, and is seemingly the least responsive of the four, which is frustrating.

Is it possible to remap the side volume keys to use back/forward functions instead? It would really help when backing out of settings that can sometimes be several pages deep.

If this isn't possible, does anyone know if those capacitive buttons can have their sensitivity increased? (I rarely, if ever have issues with the menu and search buttons, it's mostly the back button, and sometimes the home button.)

Thanks!

[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
I'm holding volume down and power. I hear the jingle but it just stays on the "Vibrant" screen... Ugh. My phone is brokedy broke.
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
Are you rooted?
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
I rooted with RyanZa's OCLF but unrooted right before doing the recent OTA update. After doing that, my phone wouldn't boot past the Vibrant screen. So now, I'm trying to get in download mode so I can use Odin to get back to stock. Nothing is working for me right now though.
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
Ok, I was going to tell you the easiest way to get into download mode, but your phone has to be on. It is still possible if you know how to use ADB and your phone was in debug mode.

Also, how long did you wait on the Vibrant screen before restarting it? It can take awhile. Did you have any lag fixes installed?
[Vibrant General] ipeench:
the best and easiest way i have found to get in to download mode is this.

1. remove batt.

2.plug usb into computer

3.put batt. in

4.hold volume down+up

5. plug usb into phone.

if you need more help with getting your phone up and running, feel free to PM me cuz i just went through this my self, i know how confusing it can get.
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
I had done RyanZa's lag fix but I also undid that before doing the OTA update. My phone was in debug mode, but unfortunately I don't know how to use ADB. I waited a while on the Vibrant screen but I'll try it again in case I really didn't wait long enough.

Btw, thanks for the continued assistance.
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
Yea.

Try this also:

Plug in your phone til you see the big battery charging icon

hold down both volume keys and power.

As soon as the battery goes away, release the power key but continue to hold volumes.. Try that..
[Vibrant General] SSJ_Gomike:
You are essentially holding down the wrong buttons...

There after two "modes" your phone can be put into...

1. Download mode:

Done by having your phone off and then quickly turning it on and holding down JUST the up and down volume controls while having the usb already plugged in (easist I've found is stated above regarding taking the battery out, plug in usb, hold both volume buttons, then while holding them put battery back in)

2. Recovery mode:

Done by holding both up and down volume buttons AND the power button. (note: after the vibrant screen comes up, release only the power button while still holding volume buttons or else the vibrant screen will just reboot over and over)
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
Thanks all, I realized that I didn't have the right drivers installed. (duh). Thanks goes out to those who pointed me in the right direction.

The new problem I have came after accidentally pulling the USB cord out of my laptop while running ODIN. Now, all I get when trying to get in download mode is a graphic of a phone, a yellow triangle with exclamation mark, and a computer.

Anyone know what do do?

[General Questions and Answers] vacuumbrand:
So I'm relatively new to the whole Android experience. I'm on the EVO and I rooted it a few weeks back, and everything was seemingly fine. The main reason being that I wanted to remove all the Sprint bloatware and try to improve my battery life and processing power. I looked at several guides from here and several other forums and used Root Explorer to uninstall a lot of the apps that I don't need. One of these was the Bluetooth apk and BCMBluetooth whatever-it-was apk. However, now when I look at my battery usage statistics, it says Bluetooth is using the battery and is running even though it is off and uninstalled. So my question is this:

What's going on? Has anybody else had this problem? And do I need to re-install those apks? Is the problem possibly with my battery usage stats? Sorry if this is a n00b question but I'm just wondering how this is possible.
[G2 and Desire Z General] CaliLove310:
So I was trying to add the insurance to my line now since I could never add it with my Nexus. These are the options I was given. (Copy and pasted from the Online support chat)

~Fawn C: There are three options for coverage, You can have the $1.99 monthly service that gives you extra warranty coverage for manufacturing defects. This does not cover damage or a lost/stolen phone.

The second options is the $4.79 monthly service that covers damage plus if the phone is lost/stolen. There would be a deductible for any claims.

The third option is the $5.99 monthly service that covers warranty issues, damage, or if the phone is lost/stolen. With this bundle, there would also be a deductible for any claims not covered by the warranty.

Me: I'm not understanding the difference between the 4.79 and the 5.99. Can you explain it further?

~Fawn C: Yes, definitely.

~Fawn C: The $4.79 does not cover warranty defects. It only covers for lost/ stolen or damage.

What do you guys think is the best choice? Don't we have a one year warranty with HTC? Is it really worth extending the warranty for 5.99 a month? If I ever needed the phone serviced, couldn't it just be serviced/replaced under the accidental damage?
[G2 and Desire Z General] jashsu:
Do you like getting the runaround from Asurion time after time, jumping through their hoops, just to get a second-hand refurb phone that might or might not have its own defects? If so, go with any of those options.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Tekk83:
I just went with the $1.99 option to protect myself from the hinge issue and faulty buttons on the keyboard down the line. My screen has just started to wiggle around alot on the hinges too after 1 week of use and it's nice to know ill be protected from that as well.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jiia:
I've been wondering if there's a way to add custom icons for third party apps in MIUI ROM. I know you can change icons of applications by opening the .apk and replacing the icon file inside but MIUI adds its own background for third party apps' icons. So my question is, how can I prevent MIUI from doing that?

The default icons seem to be located in the farmework-res.apk inside "drawable-hdpi-finger" folder. I tried adding new icons there and naming them to "icon_handcent.png" or "icon_handcent_sms.png" etc. but this didn't work.

And just to be clear I don't want any widgets like Desktop Visualizer or BetterCut to make new shortcuts. All of those apps make the new shortcuts as widgets and therefore they can't be added in the dockbar or inside folders.

Thanks in advance :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] fllash:
I recon that if you create an icon that is exactly the same size as MIUI makes its icons then you wont be able to see the background it puts behind it.

What happens if you make an app's icon a black square that fills the whole png? Does it obscure any MIUI backgrounds?
[Desire Themes and Apps] djmace:
ive been trying to add icons to this folder too but not had any luck. Im guessing it is contained in an xml telling the launcher to use those icons in the framework.res instead of the ones inside the apk itself.

Ive looked through a load of xmls in launcher and in framework but cant seem to find it anywhere.

On a side note i have read over on droidforums that by changing the icon for the apk contained in data/system/customized_icons then this will display the new icon of your choosing. So instead of placing your icon in the drawable_hdpi_finger folder, place them in there.
[Desire Themes and Apps] newone757:
data/system/customized_icons

look here guys ^^^^^^^^

you will find all the miui generated 3rd party icons will be in there. Try replacing those (may need to wipe cache to apply, not sure)

and fyi the way miui makes icons is the same as iphone now. It uses icon_mask to limit the drawable size of the original icon, then applyies it on icon_pattern on top of icon_background, and finally places icon_frame over top of it all. all those files are found in framewrok-res.apk inside the drawable-hdpi finger folder
[Desire Themes and Apps] operation_english:
im trying to change the main icons not the customized ones. is there a folder for that? like settings and gallery icons.
[Desire Themes and Apps] djmace:
Yes, in framework-res.apk there is a folder called drawable-hdpi-finger. All system apps have their icon in there. If you place your new icons in there then they will then be changed on the main screen.

What i still havent worked out is how to add icons in there for other apps such as handcent or dialerone.

i think the default_workspace.xml would need the app and package adding to it but i laso think there would be another step somewhere, not tried it yet.
[Desire Themes and Apps] operation_english:
wheres the framwork-res.apk located?
