If you use the google voice widget (select the text icon... It looks like paper) I have sucess using googles own six digit code. It cant be an empty message though.

The voice widget is part of the google voice app in the market.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdog404:
When you go to google voice then submenu top left is a peice of paper with a pencil on it. Below it says "compose". Is that the one you are talking about? If so I've tryed it and it doesn't work. I did see in one of the reads something about the phone needs to be sms enabled. I wonder if the Captivate can't do it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pietro_spina:
It works for me. I dont know what else to say.

I only know one short code. Google search... 466453 put that in the "to" field and as your message type "help" and google will text back some instructions.

Maybe post the short code you are trying to use? Is it some sort of pay code? Google voice might block that sort of thing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdog404:
Good Morning pietro_spina - I tryed your 466453 and it worked. It did list as 466-453 in the return message. The one I've been trying is BestBuy 332211 with text of GAMER and it won't go through. Google says error in sent message.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pietro_spina:
Sorry dude. I guess if they don't have any info about that sort of thing in the google help pages, then you are out of luck I guess.
[G1 Accessories] shaun-steelers:
Hey guys, so the battery that came with my G1 (3.7v 1150mAh 4.25Whr) just started randomly shutting off at %50 power, %30 power, basically anytime it felt like going dead and this was after charging it all night. So my buddy grabbed me one from radio shack where he works that is rated at (3.7v 1050mAh 3.9Whr). Now if i am understanding the fact that the HIGHER the "mAh" the better that would mean that this battery is worse than the stock one?? Also one MORE question.. im using Cyanogen 5.0.8 ... WHEN should i wipe the battery stats ?? THANKS in advance for answering my 2 questions :)
[G1 Accessories] shaun-steelers:
< BuMp > ... anyone ? please? lol
[G1 Accessories] stevendeb25:
i just bought a G1 with standard used battery, and its not lasting. as soon as i use 3g or wifi battery falls by 10% in 5mins.

i just ordered a new one off ebay 2400mah so by rights that should last day or 2 wwith moderate use? i hope lol

as i understand i think its when the battery is fully charged then wipe the battery status.

i tried both empty then wipe, full then wipe, and hasnt really made any difference.

using juicedefender and using setcpu as made alot of difference while phone is sleeping tho. which helps a lot
[G1 Accessories] thelamacmdr:
based off of what you have said, a 1050 mah battery would do you a lot better than a 1150 mah battery that is faulty. On another note, I just bought 2 1400 mAh batteries off of Amazon and they last me all day running Froyo using everything the phone has to offer. Also check to see if your current battery is swollen...
[G1 Accessories] shaun-steelers:
i threw the old one away... this new one seems to last the day...thanks for the response. Im gonna just wait till Christmas time and see what i phone i want to use my upgrade on...time 2 say goodbye G1 lol
[G1 Accessories] Sizzlincok:
2850mah from ebay, and slow charging it @ 350mah.

Mmmm. Slow charging gives you much more performance from your battery than a regular fast 1A charger.
[G1 Accessories] ace_ram:
I bought a yoobao battery that is rated at 2400 mah, works well with heavy wifi and gps usage all throughout the day. Lasts for 24 hours or more, but my g1 looks like a brick
[Vibrant General] ugonnax:
after I updated to the ota update.. my phone doesn't want to vibrate. It doesn't vibrate whn I touch the home screen buttons or when I hold the homescreen down or a even when I'm getting a phone call. And yes, all the settings are checked. I've even rebooted and it still isn't giving me haptic feed back. Any help?
[Vibrant General] evanef:
I am having the same issue. Its the only problem I have noticed with JI6 so far.
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
OCLF v2.1+ disables vibration on JI6. You will have to disable it and install v1 if you really want the vibrate.
[Vibrant General] ugonnax:
Thanks that was it..
[HTC Aria General] le nitro:
I recently ordered one through ebay and well I waited almost 3 weeks for it with not even a status change to "Your item has been shipped" I contacted the seller and he informed me that they were out of stock on them even though they still had their BIN auction up with 10+ available. After 3 days of bickering with them they finally refunded my money after I threatened to file a complaint.

I went on the hunt for another digitizer and i'm coming up with 0 luck. All the AT&T ones on ebay for some reason are listed at well over $100.00 and they 40-50 dollar ones are just the HTC style.

I would like to get the AT&T style one because once I replace it I want to also replace the phone under warranty.

Anyone have a source that is within a reasonable price...$40-50 shipped including tools to replace the digitizer?

Thanks for any help.

Interesting... Looks like the Nexus line of unlocked phones still has quite a bit more life to it yet. Just the online store that's dead. Google's still thinking up a storm on this one. Hmmmm :cool:
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Good news that, would certainly prefer another dev phone when the N1 has reach the end of it's useful life for me (not that I am expecting that to be anytime soon).
[Nexus One General] rori~:
Oh yes, the best Rubi could do, a Nex2.
[Nexus One General] crachel:
I'd just be happy if they continued to offer developer phones in the same way they're currently offering the N1.
[Nexus One General] irishrally:
I don't see how any of this implies there will be a nexus two. We have clearly been told there will be no nexus two. There was a lot more to the nexus one than being available unlocked.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Yes, there probably won't be a "Nexus Two" literally speaking. But the spirit of the Nexus One phone, meaning a 100% unlocked, carrier-untouched phone, is definitely not dead, as implied by Andy Rubin's statements.

In other words, a phone that everyone reading this forum would be interested in for the same reason they bought a Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Nah, I been saying it all along. Google loses a lot of money when carriers do things like install bing. Its always been about pushing ads and thats not going to change in a world where people increasingly dont turn on a computer but rather use their smartphone for things like email and other traditional pc activites. I'm sure most of you have read Erics comments on the money at stake if each android phone only generates 10 dollars in ad revenues. For those that didnt the word billions is the one you need to use to describe it. Google has a very serious and compelling interest in breaking the carrier based subbed phone business model and the N1 was only a test run. Why not shoot for the moon and hopefully have a very profitable hardware business along with your core business? My expectation is that for the next go around there will be deals with best buy, radio shack and other large brick and morters to carry the N2 by any other name in stock. According to google the single largest reason people choose not to buy an N1 was not price but rather the combination of the price without the opportunity to fondle the device before plunking down their hard earned ching. Getting them in every best buy gaurantees that fondling can be had by those who seek it. This time expect an ad campaign of droid proportions.

No I dont have an uncle high in Google corporate this is my reading of the tea leaves, fearless prediction if you will.
[Nexus One General] Ebonwumon:
You're overlooking the most secret and well-kept secret of the Nexus One.

Google installed worker elves inside of it. When they're ready to push out the Nexus Two, the worker elves will get instructions OTA on how to upgrade the hardware.

Those running custom ROMs will have to flash manually.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Great find there Paul :)

I read the interview before and was pissed that Andy said there would be no Gizmo integration into Google Voice but you obviously looked at the positive instead ;)

Long live the spirit of the N1!

Hope Google turns the greedy bastards of the cell phone industry on their head eventually.
[Nexus One General] mingkee:
Please please please bring in plain unlocked Android phone with AWS support. Look at G2 and you'll understand why.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
I don't know about a Nexus Two, but I never assumed that there would never be another Dev phone, there will always be a dev phone, whether it continues the Nexus line of awesomeness is another question.
[Nexus One General] going_home:
I'll take one !

Bring it !

;)
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Nexus One sized (no 4.3" tablet)

Nexus One stylish

Super LCD or Super AMOLED WITHOUT Pentile

Vertical slider keyboard

Louder rear speaker

Latest mobile phone CPU and GPU

That's my list of what an N2 should be, anyway :) Vertical slider is personally my favorite type of keyboard, as you can use it one-handed easily.. I actually rarely used my HW keyboards on my two previous phones besides they were side-sliders and often I'm on the move.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Off topic, but I'm more eager to see an 'unlocked' google tv, or atleast a version for a DIY HTPC.

Also is Chrome OS dead? There can only be one!!
[Nexus One General] jasrups:
HW keyboards are completely useless to me now as I can input text much faster with Swype. When factoring in the added bulk a keyboard adds, I'm hoping the next gen Nexus DOESN'T have one.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
+1... hate added bulk of a hardware keyboard. I like my phone to be able to fit in my front pocket without people thinking I am getting an erection you know? ;)
[Nexus One General] krabman:
What makes you think anyone is looking? lol More on topic I used to love the full keyboard but frankly I do pretty well with swype and the tradeoff on bulk doesnt pencil out for me anymore. No reason they couldnt have two versions though.....
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
another vote for NO hardware keyboard....what a bad idea...ruins the form factor and it's not needed
[Nexus One General] Lamar720:
I thought he meant, there will be other unlocked phones .... not necessarily from google or in the spirit of the nexus one.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Actually, the Moto Droid I handled once only seemed to be a just a little thicker than my Nexus...
[Nexus One General] dan1431:
If Google does release an updated DEV phone, for heavens sake please include UMTS radios frequencies for North American 3G (at&t Mobility, etc.).

I have no idea why Google is only selling the "Nexus One DEV Edition" with AWS UMTS frequencies only, at one point they did offer a North American 3G version.

Dan
[Nexus One General] gotgame740:
YES. i totally agree 100%. i have absolutely no use for hardware keyboards. between swype and voice input, hardware keyboards are just useless as far as i'm concerned
[Nexus One General] wondercoolguy:
The N2, needs to be the new standard like the N1 was. It needs to be the first dual core vanilla 3.0 android with Super Duper Amoled 16 gig internal and 32gig ext.
[Nexus One General] FC1032:
That's enough to make it a good phone XD super duper. I like! :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
This might be a dumb question, how much flashing roms, mods, gapps, themes, and everything else we do can the Hero take before taking a crap? I am fairly new here and to all of this and daily I see something I want to try! So I flash, wipe, whatever is needed to change me phone around. Its becoming like an addiction! :eek: Like most addictions there are consequences though, is the Hero crapping out one of them? I have noticed that after flashing back and forth between roms starts catching up to the phones performance and a full wipe is needed, cache, data, everything now and then. Things just stop working like the market, it will open but will close after a few seconds. Settings will do the same, a reboot might help but ultimately starting from a clean slate is needed to cure these issues. Am I going to far, should I set it up and leave it, I just dont want to go back to sprint with yet another messed up hero, this is my 3rd phone, lol. Any input from experience, thoughts, stories heard from around the way, all will be appreciated :)

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDowntown12:
Well your supposed to wipe everything everytime you switch roms, so if you're not doing that, that could be some of the reason your phone bogs down. Themes and stuff, not always necessary but, is recommended often. Alot of people here flash all kinds of stuff all the time, its addicting. But as long as you're wiping you shouldn't have any problems.

Wiping does suck, but you should only need to do it if you're switching from completely different roms. Its a neccessary evil.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
I have went from all the colored mods of cm6 (blk, vanilla, extrmblue, so on) with no wipe. I went to AOSP rom, back to extremely blue, well you get it. All these were done with no wipe. I never did do the factory/wipe data, once I did that it was like starting all over from nothing, clean install. That has fixed all my issues. Thank You for your help :)

[XPERIA X10 General] Sikiduck:
Hi!

I noticed behind the cover on the phone, a gold thing.

What is that? Antenna? In case, what is the antenna for? External antenna for GSM/GRPS?

Strange:confused:

Thanks!
[XPERIA X10 General] DaHu4wA:
Do you mean the connector beside the battery?

Thats a connector for an external antenna, used in cars.

The funny thing is, that there's no battery cover with a hole for the antenna connector on the market, so you have to destroy your original one :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] Sikiduck:
Ah, thank you!

But, what antenna can I plug into it?

EDIT: are you sure?
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:

[Wildfire General] webjunky:
ok ; this is probably a dumb question :

how do you cut and paste a file from your sdcard/bluetooth/blabla.mp3

to your phone/system/media/audio/notifications ?

i tried ASTRO File explore but i can't seem to copy/move it from the sdcard to the phone itself

ps: this is all new to me ( Android ) , its the first time we bought a Android phone .
[Wildfire General] stunno:
I haven't used the Astra file menager, I use the EStrong one, but have you tried long pressing on the file to see if a menu pops up?

It does on Estrong
[Wildfire General] yelti:
you can't copy files to your systemfolder because of the security on the phone.

You can try to create a folder ringtones on your sdcard, next you reboot the phone.

Then it should be reconized.
[Wildfire General] double_ofour:
at some point you can, you need to root your phone and use "Root Explorer" and make "phone/system/media/audio/notifications" as R/W. then do what ever you like..
[Wildfire General] rolks:
or you can make on sd card/media/audio/notifications and media/audio/ringtones
[Wildfire General] thunderskain:
Don't mess with the internal storage too much.. that's the way Android wants it to be. Instead use a external storage card to store ringtones, music etc.
[Wildfire General] webjunky:
Thanks for all the replies , this works very well :D
[General Questions and Answers] at45:
Hi all

I've been looking for a new phone, but it seems all the new OSs are a bit naff. WinMo 6.x, for all it's failings, is the only mobile OS I can find which does everything I want (except record calls). I would like a new phone regardless as my X1 is a pain sometimes.

So, does anyone know if you can put WinMo 6.x on the Samsung Wave? Apparently it's almost the same hardware as the Galaxy S, so I suppose putting Android on it might be more simple, but I'm interested in WinMo.

NB: Everything I want includes: SatNav, Stardict, WebCam, Grooveshark, Skype, Local Sync with Thunderbird, Office viewers, Tethering, Ogg Vorbis Playback, Record Calls.

Thanks

I have an idea for an app. believe its sellable I have no idea what to do. Hoping someone might have knowledge willing to partner up. If you have interest,I think its great opportunity
[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
Hi there,

Ok first of all do a good search to make sure a similar or same app does not exist.

If it doesnt, make a thread here in QnA or alter your first post in this thread and change the title to [APP REQ] [brief title] and fully describe what you would like, how the app should look (with some screeners or gfx) and what it should do.

I did the same a few years ago and found a willing young dev learning how to code who made the app for me just for the quodos :)

Ill support you if you the above properly and put in the work in the post so its properly laid out and descriptive.

Good luck.

I have been working on this for a bit, but this is just the Full on flashable zip, made for the Droid.

I also need to know if the images in the framework-res are the only thing I need to change, and then I can flash that same package that was meant for the droid or if I need to transfer those over to the Hero's framework-res?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASimmons:
I almost positive you cant just rename folders like drawable-hdpi to draw-mdpi as theres more in the apk that specifies that the apk is built for an hdpi phone.

This is how I do it (short version cause I'm working out kinks). basically just copy over the pngs from the hdpi folders to the mdpi folders. Basically the difference in size from hdpi to mdpi is about 66% the size of an hdpi png so in the process of copying them I also shrink them. 9 patch pngs are a alot harder to get right and I currently working through some ways to port those now, but for a basic port you can just leave them as is. If you wanted to fix the 9 patch you basically have to decompile the apk and then use the 9patchDrawable tool in the android sdk and gimp to shrink them and then redraw the patch borders.

Your problem is most likely trying to rename the file folder. The port should only bring over the pngs and maybe ( i never do) some minor xml tweaks and put those in the rom your porting to you can't use anything from the ported rom except the pngs unless you want a buncha headaches.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jttraverse:
It's been a month or so since I intended to do the latest update on my EVO, so I thought I'd checked once more for suggestions on ROM's to choose before I finally go ahead.

I'm basically okay with a stock ROM, and had someone suggest the latest FRESH EVO version as being based on it. Sounds fine with me, but some of the recent notes in the bugs forum seem to indicate some people have had 4G or other glitches with the latest FRESH, so I'm asking for any recommendations. Or, is there a fully rooted plain vanilla stock ROM that works perfectly if that's all I need?

I have fully rooted the phone already, have Titanium Backup, did a full nandroid backup the other day, and mainly am concerned about keeping my wireless tether functionality I have now, along with 4G and the full camera/8mp functioning.

Any recommendations on a way to go?

Thanks in advance.
