Microsoft is holding a live developer conference today on building apps for WP7 and on using their Azure platform. Thought it might be useful for developers interested in learning more about the platform and hear about any updated information.

It starts at 9.00 AM PST, and they will provide the recordings the next day I imagine.

[Android Software Development] mardvd:
where can i view the correct mime-type for intent-filter for this action Intent.ACTION_VIEW on this data: android.provider.ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI ?

This is intent launched from my activity:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(android.provider.ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivity(intent);

Now i have to write a intent-filter and i have need of right mime-type in order to match this intent::

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"></action>
<data android:mimeType=" ? "></data>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category>

[Nexus One General] vsankarn:
Hi All,

I had installed Bluetooth file transfer, moved the app to SD card using the android 2.2 A2SD capability for the application and enabled automatic application.

Today morning, I saw that there was a notification that an update was installing itself for the Bluetooth File transfer app. I clicked on it and it took me to the market page. I didnt think it was a big deal and left it alone.

However, it has been in the same status for about 12-13 hours and I noticed that my phone was considerably slower than usual and was also losing battery rapidly.

I checked the apps running and saw that BTF app was still in the installing stage. So I restarted the phone. Still the same status. I uninstalled the application, in the hope that it would be gone now, but still when I go to the markets>download page, I can see that the application is still trying to install itself.

My phone is still a little bit slow I think. Please help me out with the issue. How do I uninstall the app totally and make sure that it is not slowing / degrading my phone's performance.

Thanks

Hi all.

I'm using Froyo Stone Sense V3.2 on OzDroid with RADIO 2.15.50.14 on a UK 02 T8585. Could anyone recommend a good radio to work with Telstra and the T8585?

Froyo Stone Sense V3.2 does boot with RADIO 2.07.51.22_2 from the Orginal Telstra ROM.

Many thanks

[XPERIA X10 General] skydirt:
Its okay, just not near as polished as angry birds. The aiming, power and physics need a lot of work.
[XPERIA X10 General] VitalyTheFirst:
Well, I think the game is really good. I like both Angry Birds and Pandas vs. Ninjas. Have I experienced any problems with physics? Nope. Of course, it took time to get used to it, but in general it's ok.

Here what CJ Lippstreu says in his video review:

"It's a blatant clone of the popular Angry Birds game, only instead of birds and pigs we have pandas and ninjas... and it does recreate the addictive style of game-play to some degree".

The whole video you can see on YouTube or pocketnow web-site: pocketnow.com/android/what-if-angry-birds-featured-pandas-vs-ninjas-video
[XPERIA X10 General] 26sl:
I like Angry Birds and seen quite a few clones but wasn't impressed at all untill I played Pandas vs Ninjas...

This game is really cool (remember, it's only a BETA VERSION!!!) and I really like the oriental-martial-arts-style graphics and the music.

The characters you play with are really amusing and funny so my bottom line here is simple: well done, guys!!! It's a decent game and I am waiting for the full version to be released soon. ;)

[Windows Mobile] goldlocke:
Hey gurus!

I just inserted the official 21913 build (from the Leo 3.14 roms) into my COM2 kitchen. Now I can not send or receive SMS.

(That's with and without HTC messaging client)

I used 21916 and stepped back a little to fix some battery usage issues.

What could possibly cause this?

TIA! :)
[Windows Mobile] goldlocke:
hmmm..I may solve this myself...

packages:

SMS_Providers - Required - SMS Support and

SIM_Toolkit

were absent in the dump I pulled from Leo 3.14

...building and flashing again...

edit: solved - cause was the missing SMS providers package

[HD7 General] loomx:
I cannot figure out how to get the front speakers to activate, it only seems to play through the tiny little speaker on the back.
[HD7 General] ecj123:
there aren't any speakers at the front of the phone, the grill on either side its just part of the phones design.
[HD7 General] PJ11:
There are definately stereo speakers on the front, one at the top and one at the bottom under the grills. There is also a third speaker on the back, yes three in all!!

I have done extensive sound listening tests to confirm this and it is most noticable if you turn Dolby Mobile on in the Sound Enhancer section which gives a better stereo separation effect. You really have to play music on the handset to hear all three speakers.

The front stereo speakers are not listed in any of the spec I have seen but this is a complete bonus as far as I am concerned. It will even be a huge benefit for sat nav applications guidance voice when they become available.
[HD7 General] s1nn0n:
Yours must be a different version to mine then, because my sound output is s**t
[HD7 General] ace10134:
Maybe sounds simply escapes through those grills on the phone, sound that comes from the ONE speaker in the back of the phone?
[HD7 General] PJ11:
It could be sound spill from the rear speaker but I am sure it is not. There have been various online reviews of this handset that state there are stereo speakers on the front of the HD7.

I realise the rear speaker is certainly at a higher volume than the front ones but if you cover the rear one up you get some sound through the top and bottom front ones. I suppose only HTC will be able to confirm or otherwise.
[HD7 General] ace10134:
Hmm okay, I'll take your word for it! When I get mine next week, if it doesn't have speakers, I'm coming for you!!!! hehehe ;)
[HD7 General] ffelan:
It does have front speakers but they are only active if you have dolby/srs turned on.
[HD7 General] RussST24:
I have one but can not find any settings about Dolby. Only sound is from the rear speaker and its quiet compared with other phones.

Russ
[HD7 General] PJ11:
Go to one of the HTC applications called sound enhancer and this is where you find Dolby Mobile SRS Surround etc.

I am very happy with the sound coming from the front speakers even although they are quieter than the rear.
[HD7 General] FreeDee:
Clarification on the stereo speaker debate of the HTC HD7

Sorry if I have to disappoint some of the readers here, but there are definitly NO STEREO SPEAKERS located at the front of the HD7 device. So unless the people here who claim they have speakers have a totally different hardware version of the HD7 (highly unlikely), they do not have speakers either. As it was said before it could be sound spill from the rear speaker.

I have to admit that from the front design of the HD7 you could very well assume that there are stereo speakers built in, and there are even reviews around that state this. I wonder how bad a review writer must be to mislead their readers by just writing down their wishful fantasies/third party information.

Overall I was rather disappointed by the built in rear speaker. Choosing a different "Sound Enhancer" setting (Dolby Mobile/SRS Enhancement) does slightly improve the sound quality but no extra speakers get activated.

As you can clearly see by looking at the attached image of my disassembled HD7, there is nothing behind the bottom sound grill - it is just a design element.
[HD7 General] PJ11:
Well that certainly is proof indeed,cannot argue with that.

Odd, but here is HTC's official reply to me in an email yesterday -

"Dear Paul,

Yes HTC HD7 has the dual speakers either side of the screen.

To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number.

[HD7 General] ericc191:
Interesting.. HTC is really pissing me off lately.
[HD7 General] FreeDee:
Wow, that is interesting indeed. It is not HTC's style to offer devices with different hardware specs and the same name (besides Memory of course). So unless someone comes up with some evidence pics I have to assume that this guy at HTC doesn't have a friggin idea what he's talking about.
[HD7 General] octavio79:
I do hear that it has dual speaker.
[HD7 General] ace10134:
No, that's not true. It has been proven (someone actually disassembled the phone) that there is no front speaker.
[HD7 General] octavio79:
Oops sorry I didn't see the pic. What the hell is wrong with HTC MAN!!
[HD7 General] ace10134:
haha idk, they thought they could get away with that lie? Nevertheless, the speaker isn't that bad on the phone.
[HD7 General] f1restarter:
Yeah, I just received my HD7 today and after enabling SRS/Dolby, didn't notice any sound from the bottom front speaker at all. Wish there was a speaker though. :(
[HD7 General] theguy0075:
I'm not sure about SRS speakers, but to those saying it's just spill through...there HAS to be a front speaker in order to hear a phone call. So there is definitely one speaker on the front at least...right?

that said

arabic => flash JPA not JPM

lag => use a lagfix, i'd suggest universal lag fix

free memory => can't help you there, theres a kernel with more memory available yes but..

if you're not able to actually find the topic with the "how to" for each of these, i suggest you return your phone and ask for a factory reset, and don't try stuff from here again, it will only bring you troubles/break your phone eventually

Hi All,

I am having a little issue with my 10" Zentithink Epad Tablet. I am trying to get the android market downloaded on it.

I know there is slide 4.0, but the other is so much better.

We are running the 2.1 software. We have tryed to do the upload from Zentithink U.S website but my tablet is showing up as a HTC Dream on my laptop rather then a unknown device. It is also linked to a Gmail account so It would have to have a Android ID , right?

I have downloaded some small things from other markets online( angry bird, paper toss, etc) via SD card and Slide 4.0, without any problems

I am hoping someone can lead me to a place where I can download the market or guide me through the process of downloading it.

Oh I have done a reset but no luck there.

Thanks

[Fascinate General] RayKinStL:
Hey guys,

Sorry for this "noob"ish post. I am new to the Fascinate after being with T-Mo for 2 years, which included a G1 (running CyanMod) and a Nexus One (which also ran CyanMod). I am just hoping one of you would mind giving me a quick 2 minute catch up on where things are now with the Fascinate, as there is way too much on these forums to realistically sift through. I have some basic questions...

1)I have noticed root is good and all that. I would assume rooting is all you need to get free wireless tethering? What program do you use to wireless tether once you are rooted?

2)I keep seeing something about "lagfix". What is that? My phone doesn't seem laggy, except for all the bloatware Verizon has put on it. So any info is appreciated.

3)I'm not crazy about the stock 2.1 ROM. Are there any good custom 2.2 ROMs yet? What is generally the best ROM for the Fascinate? On the Nexus, argue as much as you want, CyanMod was far and away the best ROM. But it seems like there is no CyanMod for Fascinates. So what are my best choices?

4)Is there anything else I should know moving to this phone?

I really appreciate anyone taking the time to answer these, as I know these types of threads are not the most popular thing on here. I want to get "in the know" with my new phone, but there is already so much on these forums, it's hard to tell what is still new and relevant and what is not. Thanks guys!
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
Also a G1 and N1 owner. Be happy to help.

1) Wireless tethering is accomplished by myself without issue via Wireless tether app on the market. It's under the radar so to speak, but required an ad hoc connection

2) The correct lagfix is the voodoo lag fix, with the informative posts being found on the first page of this forum. Basically, Samsung used an older file system in their build, and voodoo updates it to ext4, which is alot snappier on the r/w side of things. Without it, you will encounter a slowing of your processes after a period of uptime, and usually a small freeze while the phone does things like install applications. The flip is that voodoo instructions should be read very closely, and adhered to. Failure to do so will result in phone borkage, and while always fixable, takes some time and patience to do so.

If you are unfamiliar with Odin, as I was at first, make damn sure you always use the PDA option. Failure to do so can result in terminal frustration, and possibly a close to true brick of the device.

3) There are no 2.2 ROMs yet. The Froyo OTA should hit between now and Christmas hopefully. I would like to think we will see some custom 2.2 ROMs, and maybe a CM port by the 1st. In the meanwhile there are several ROMs on this board which seem to work for the people who use them. I'm a proponent of stripping and customizing stock to suit your needs, making your ROM your own. I haven't seen enough included hacks in the available ROMs to warrant a need for them personally. We have some excellent kernels available, and some pretty slick themes and mods, which works well for me.

4) The phone has the best processor/gpu out currently. The display is fantastic, and I don't see a better device on the market currently. It does have downsides, most notably the GPS, which isn't a huge issue for me, but which also has a fix on the way, presumably to be included in the 2.2 update. I also have experienced a shortage in the Wifi reception comparative to my N1, having approx. half the range I previously enjoyed. This seems to me to be software related, so I assume it will be addressable.

If you plan to root and mod, especially if you plan to use voodoo, which I highly recommend, be careful in your reading of instructions and applications of procedures outlined in them. As great as this phone is, mistakes are costly in terms of confusion and time to correct.
[Fascinate General] RayKinStL:
Thanks for the reply. Im always impatient, and as such, have already rooted before even waiting for a first response :) I used the one click method though and it worked great, exactly as advertised. Root Explorer works, so I definitely am good there, and I snagged the latest build of wireless tether from the developer's page.

Now I need to get started with actually switching out the ROM. I really want all the VZ bloatware gone and Bing needs to go as well. So now I guess I have some reading to do on installing ROMs for this phone. Process seems a little more complex for this phone that it was for my N1, but that may be just because it was so long ago and I don't remember. Thanks for the response though!
[Fascinate General] bL33d:
I am in a similar boat I use the Droid 1 and my fascinate is at the post office waiting for me per usps tracking :)

I think for now I will root remove bloatware and Bing and role with that till 2.2 maybe touchwiz aswell as I hear u can save ram that way and I paid for launcher pro so might aswell use it.
[Fascinate General] RayKinStL:
Yea, from what I've read, it sounds like putting a new ROM on is kind of pointless, since it won't be 2.2 anyway. So I think I just need some good instructions for this voodoo/lagfix stuff and some good instructions for removing all the vzn bloatware that comes installed. Once I do those two things, I think I'll be good. I am already running ADW, which I love, so I don't need any customization there, and wireless tether seems great. So I guess I just need to continue searching. There are lots of topics on the voodoo/lagfix thing on here, but I just want to make sure I find the most complete comprehensive set so I dont screw anything up :-)
