[Defy General] Step666:
Problem with that is I would quite like to use Swype, which the phone has but with the missing new line/carriage return key.

This is my first Android handset and I've had it precisely 2 days, so I'm not sure if I can get an un-gimped version of Swype without paying for it (which I'd rather not do).

I'll definitely look into it but it's a shame that the answer is, apparently, to use a different keyboard when the pre-loaded ones are perfectly usable, save for the one moronic decision on Motorola's part.
[Defy General] nitewalkergr:
I use handcent sms and the keyboard (swype) has the enter key instead of the smileys. I remember changing this too though. I'll try to find out what I did.

And defy section +100. If crappy phones like the flipout can have a section the defy deserves one lined with the corpses of android phones that couldn't survive a drop in a puddle.
[Defy General] Step666:
Thank you, I'd really appreciate it.

I have tried a bit of Googling, I keep coming back to discussions about a similar problem with the likes of the Droid X but I didn't see any suggestions as to how to fix it.
[Defy General] bschuele:
you can change to a complete different keyboard by install another one from the markte. e.g. the 'ultimate keyboard' is a very customizable keyboard, search for it in the markte an install the 24h demo. (I just did it...)

here is a review: http://goo.gl/KJn3t
[Defy General] Step666:
Thanks for the suggestion.

However: a) as mentioned, I quite like Swype and would like to use that and b) I don't see why I should have to pay money to get something that has been standard on keyboards for hundreds of years.
[Defy General] bschuele:
ultra keyboard has "swype" input, is extremely customizable and in my opinion the US$ 2,79 worth.

just try the demo an we talk after ;)

e.g. is also has arrow keys (I missed on the orginal), you can set the high of the keyboard, .....
[Defy General] Step666:
Ok, you win.

It's awesome.

After using the trial version, I bought the full one, it's just so much nicer than the pre-loaded stuff.

I don't think the swiping part is quite a good as Swype, though that could be because I use it with the compact qwerty keyboard a lot, so it has twice as many letters to work with.

But overall well worth the money as you say.

About the keyboard, in handcent you're able to swap between smileys and enter; can't find it in the stock app...

Okay, I have been software/computer guy since the 80's. I have a pretty good knowledge of most operating systems and how they function etc. Most all the learning that I have done has been through countless hours of woodshedding.

I worked for 16 years as a tech in a local business, that in January of 2009, closed for good. This past year, I have been developing a portfolio as a photographer.

So now I need to start making some money at it.

Here is what I am looking to do.

I would like to turn my HDRI photos into wallpapers, both live and dead for the Android Market. I need a developer to write a small app that represents my wallpapers in the wallpaper applet on the Droid. I want to make the collection live, so that I can "serve" new wallpapers as updates through my website.

For example, user buys the wallpaper apk from the market, it includes a live gallery from my website. Basically a lifetime of free high quality, HDRI wallpapers. The app needs to be able to read tags from the site and categorize the wallpapers into groups based on subject matter.

Please, if you are interested contact me. I will pay you a percentage of sales.

My photography is at: Http://river.adwheelerphotography.com so that you may see what I am talking about. Thanks!!

[Android Software Development] DragonNote:
@djh816 email sent.

I use Sony/Minolta. Best advice for a new photographer is not to worry about megapixels or bodies. Its the glass that makes the camera. Get the best lenses you can afford and that you can upgrade bodies if you need more features down the road. Don't skimp on the lenses.

same problem

Same problem here my proximity doesn't works, if I call or I attend call screen gets black

None of the keys works at this time. I found an app in market called 'proximity screen off' but as its an app It eats ram & it needs to run anytime in background I need a permanent solution.

Somebody have any idea to disable this sensor using

Any scripts through terminal? Or ...

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerry247:
The last few days I've noticed while i'm playing moblox light and every so often a video ad is poping up and taking over my screen. It's very hard to tell if the game is any good because I grow tired of the ads after one or 2 levels; it pops to browser then youtube (video?) player I hit back and the level is restart. My gf is playing angry birds and is getting the same thing.

Is this working as intended? If so is there a way around it? I'm all for supporting devs, and I'm fine with ads, but this seems excessive.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
If your phone is rooted, you can look for an app in the Market called "Adfree Android". It replaces your /etc/hosts file with one that points all the advertising servers back to 127.0.0.1, effectively preventing the ads. May be worth a shot to fight back against the intrusive ads.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FunkyELF:
I have a MyTouch 3G that I rooted and run Cyanogen on.

I recently got a new G2 (hate that its not perma-rooted yet) and have my SIM card in it.

So... what cool things can I do with my old MyTouch without cellular data connection (besides the obvious mp3 player, gaming device, etc)? Its a small computer with usb, bluetooth, wifi, gps, and a camera.

Some ideas:

Is it possible to make it a bluetooth receiver for music? If so, I could have it permanently hooked up to a car stereo via 3.5mm cable and then other things could connect to it via bluetooth. This would be useful for my parent's RV which has an aux input but no bluetooth.

Can turn it into a security device and stream video?... either stream it to another computer on the network which runs a webserver, or run a webserver on the android device itself?

Can you turn it into a USB trackpad to plug into any computer?

I know you can plug the phone into a computer and it appears as external storage, but can you plug external storage into the phone? Could I buy a huge 1Tb+ external hard drive and let this thing be a fileserver (or anything a SheevaPlug / PogoPlug can do?)

Can it become a wireless repeater?

Is anybody doing any of these things now?

What are you doing with your old device?

I expect ROMs out there geared towards a single purpose as more and more people get Android devices then upgrade to newer Android devices.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamelin73:
I have searched about this but found nothing that helped. I have flashed a few ROMS from the CoG versions to some of the other FroYo builds. I have not had any issues going back and fourth till the I9000 ROM.

In the past I would ODIN back to the JF6 on click then Kies mini to get back to the JH7 update. However after trying the i9000 ROM I have decided to go back to stock and Kies mini is now telling me that I have an unregistered device. I have used the JH7 OTA .zip to get back to JH7 and still Kies says it unregistered.

I have tried the files that were listed in another thread to resolve this issue but it still states that I have an unregistered device.

I have done the ODIN master clean and re-flashed multiple times with no change. Is there something the i9000 ROM did to my phone that ODIN will not flash out of the phone?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the I9000 roms require a special kernel? Have you flashed back to the stock Captivate kernel yet?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamelin73:
Yes I have gone back to the original ODIN multiple times. When I did that I was going to go to the update JH7 via KIES but both my computers tell me my phone is unregistered. I had to use the OTA file DG has to get back to JH7.

I have tried on two computers with Kies mini and the full kies and Kies mini says that its an unregistered device full kies says something similar.

I am now running JH7 but just had the question about what happened by flashing caused Kies not to like my phone. In the past trying the different ROMs I was always able to use kies to get back until now (after the i9K flash).

It sounds like you only used odin to get the captivate ROM refreshed. I had the same problem, odin back to stock. Unregistered device. Flash to Tuyetama latest i9000 all better. After odin refresh try reflashing the stock captivate kernal.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamelin73:
That is what got me to the point of having an unregistered device.

Unless I am missing what your saying to do?

This is what I have done to this point

was on JH7 and went to try one of the i9000 roms but didnt get a good signal.

I went back to stock with the ODIN one click back to JF6. Then tried to Kies mini back to JH7 but this is a no go as it said unregistered device. I had to flash DGs JH7_OTA. This is where I am now but still unregistered.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krad:
i am in the same boat and would like to get this fixed as well.

ok just went from tayutamas I9000 rom with voodoo/lag fix jpm rom, back to Odin one click captive factory fresh.

1. reflashed back to a jpk modem using CWM.

2. opened Odin 1click

3. rebooted into recovery

4. hit start on Odin after 5min. phone rebooted all works fine. Last time i tryed to flash back to stock using Odin I also had an unregistered device issue. The only change in my order of doing things was i flashed the jpk modem before i went back to stock. Just my experience not sure if it will help you all hope it helps SOMEONE.

Guys, don't panic, the developers will have the official Froyo here for us to flash and I found it much safer to upgrade here rather than Mini Kies or OTA. I wouldn't worry about an unregistered device at all since every update we've ever needed has been here and far more stable than anything Samsung or AT&T has released. I hope this calms anyones nerves, I do understand how you are feeling, I decided to flash my phone from here and it has always been safe. My phone works so much better with everything the devs put out. I started flashing and rooting 2 weeks after getting the phone back in July and I have never looked back. That is why I got and Android phone to begin with, so much developement and so much potential. Good luck and enjoy your phones.

Ok, so I was half bored with no new Cognition ROM out yet (was on 9.1.3), didn't want to mess with JJ4, was just curious because it worked fine from Cognition 2.2 beta7.

So you know, my computer is Windows 7 x64.

So I flashed back to stock JF6. Tried to connect to Mini Kies to get JH7, no luck. I uninstalled all traces of Mini Kies and all Samsung drivers. Went to Samsung Downloads and got a fresh copy of Mini Kies. Reinstalled, connected my phone, let computer install drivers. When that finished I restarted Mini Kies and the phone was recognized. Flashed the JH7 update, back to stock. For giggles, I tried software update and it told me "no firmware".

So I wouldn't wet my pants just yet.

Having kies mini see the phone is not the issue. It is what it says after i897. It shouldn't say unregistered device.
