[Android Themes] @xDeepS:
Hey guys. I am sorry if this isnt the right section.

I am a iPod/iPhone user who got a G1 (it was cheap ... I like to build skins and skin apps. SKinning Android seems to be a difficult task cause of 9patch pngs... I need help... I wanted to perform a simple task of editing the Status bar to make it look transparent and I have been scratching my head over it since a week. I use APK Manager to Pull/Decompile the framework-res.apk...

Now I get the status_bar_item_app_background_normal.9.png and open it in photoshop... I see the black guides and I dont touch them... I select the stuff between it and cut it via a layer and decrease the transparency (visibility)... Merge the layers... for the sake of it I open i in draw9patch.. save it.. and use the xUltimate Draw9Patch compiler... now when i drag the compiled image back to the orignal location and Compile the app in APK Manager and I push... I don;t think I need to sign it as it retains the sig in APK MAnager... now the edited pic doesnt work...

Does using MetaMorph make the process easier???

Is there a way to preview my pics on the Android Emulator?

Skinning for Android is pain in the ass... if someone helps me out here, I'll release a kickass theme

What do you mean it doesn't work? Do you go into a boot loop or nothing happens or whatever? Anyway you cannot push framework files. They must be replaced with an update.zip! :)

[General Questions and Answers] SkpGile:
Can anyone suggest a SIP application for X10 that actually works with the phone! I've tried at least 5 or 6 of them always with the same result: the voice received on the other side is utterly hideous! Tried: sipdroid, fring, linphone, 3CX, c... and they all routed voice to speaker instead earpiece, never avoided echo being generated on the other side of the call, mic & speaker mixing caused further problems with voice quality received on the other side of the call, tried every single codec 8,16,32 kbps, lowering the mic & speaker gain ... So before i go and by Nokia E series just to do the damn VoIP, is there any hope for X10??
[General Questions and Answers] Olli80:
Voip on X10

Got the same Problems .........

No SIP client is working on the X10! I tried many of them i.e. Sipdroid, Fringe, Nimbuzz, FritzApp and so on..........

The results are the same! No SIP client is working solid. I get force closed, phone crashes or just awesome bad voice quality....

I realy was thinking that this was caused by the 1.6 Firmware.

So 2.1 is out now and i try it again.

The Result: Still crashes and phone hang ups! SO WTF?

It wasnt about the 1.6 Firmware so what is wrong with the X10?

It looks like that there is no option to use any SIP Droid with it?

Is anybody out there who can confirm a running SIP client on a X10 with	satisfying result?

I have never heard about and i realy want to use VOIP. There must be a way........
[General Questions and Answers] SkpGile:
Thanx for sharing your experience!

Have you actually upgraded!? i'm waiting on 2.1 before dropping down the Issue. I'll be patient and wait for a update which is meant for my region (not the Nordic), and it might take a while. However I found somewhere that he issue with bad voice quality during voIP in Xperia is caused by the phone recording/mixing inbound & outbound audio at the same time. I actually haven't had many crashes except with Linphone and my main concern is audio. Hoping that 2.1 would do something with the Android Kernel that will allow for better VoIP experience. If not E52 (Nokia has by far the best VoIP client).
[General Questions and Answers] Olli80:
Yes im already using the Nordic 2.1 Firmware......

there is no hope for SIP!
[General Questions and Answers] SkpGile:
Damn it! I mean WTF, I'm following the Xperiax10.net blog and people getting wormed up about the Eclair and anticipating trivial stuff such as live f...king wallpapers, 5 welcome screens minor improvements in performance (OK I admit that Hd recording & continuous are some improvements) but totally neglecting a functionality in which their phone is used as a communication tool!!

So It looks that I'm going to use two devices Xperia handling my multimedia requirements and some cheap WiFi capable Nokia handling SIP!! Have you tried contacting your local SE office over this matter?
[General Questions and Answers] louiscypherbr:
Try CSipSimple. Its the beter full sip solution for now on my X10mini. Fully integrates with dialer, and sound is ok at all
[General Questions and Answers] Olli80:
Thank you for this hint.

I will give it a try and post my experience......
[General Questions and Answers] SkpGile:
i@ luiscypherbr

You're right CSIPSimple gives best results, it takes some twitching with the mic & speaker gains to get best results. Works best with headphones. I've tried CSipSimple before on 1.6 but the software kept crashing down, however on 2.1 the software runs smooth. Finally x10 is shaping to be an acceptable business platform other than toy!

Thanx, anyhow for sharing!

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tallen:
Before donating to aalopez you need to check out the thread Windows 7 App (Translation). The original developer is http://www.joymms.com/English and Samspoon was assisting with the translation because the developer was delayed in getting the English version published, but it looks like the developer has the english version on his website now. I had an e-mail conversation last night with cnshwxp@sohu.com and he had just downloaded the English version.

aalopez pdf looks VERY similar to the Readme.htm file you get when you download the app from the following site, http://www.joymms.com/English/. WOW!!!!

people people people, not asking for any donations

and i made this new thread to keep everything simple, from the old post wit the chinese version.

im just sharing for others who doesnt know about it, and doesnt want to go 50 pages later from the original thread to find a english version.

if you dont have nothing good to say dont say it,

not to be negative to everyone but it seems some people dont appreciated, when i shared something cool and start posting negative things about it.

if it wasnt for ME NO ONE WOULD OF KNOW ABOUT THIS APP.

im pretty sure next time i find something im guess ill keep it to myself.

thanks for those wit a "thank u and a good find" and give some love to the developer on hes site.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tallen:
My apologies if I spoke out of turn...just looking at your post it didn't seem you were giving credit to the original developer. Now that you have the following on your original post I believe it makes it much more clear of your intentions.

"to show love to the developer visit hes site and support hes work,

Please except my apologies if you feel I slandered your good name or intentions.

Now to the topic of this thread...the app is really cool but I had issues with trying to register for the Gold Membership, there was no way to continue after putting my payment info. I have sent an e-mail to the developer asking for assistance.

[7 Mozart General] MattJ1989:
I have to say, wow.

I've just come from using an iPhone 3GS for a bit of background (before that I had HTC Touch Pro 2)

I got the phone from Telstra, $49 Business Cap with 300mb + 500mb bonus data and no separate MRO, it's a subsidised handset!

It is so nice to have a change, the interface is so modern easy to use the quality of the body feels great and design of the body is very appealing. Overall it's quite bare in terms of customisation but I'm sure with updates it will become easy to customise it further.

The Zune software is amazing to look at (needs a few things fixed up). It just feels like you leave the operating system and the focus is media, and is very bright and fun to navigate. Having the phone sync over WiFi as I walk in the house is a great feeling and very easy to setup.

(So glad to be rid of iTunes!!)

The app range while not huge covers the basics (for me) Facebook, Twitter, Games, certain tools, etc. I'm sure this will explode in the coming months.

Not that I need half of the social apps as the integration (optional of course) is very fluid and not just shoved in there.

Making phone calls (the number one priority) is crystal clear and easy to use (as you'd expect)

Sending Email, Messages and Browsing is VERY fast and again simple to use.

The lockscreen information and having calendar reminders on the home screen is a huge step for productivity (for me).

I've only had a play for about 3 hours now and even without a full charge the battery is going (Bluetooth on and WiFi connected).

Quickly on the hardware, it feels very light but has enough weight to feel 'expensive' and 'powerful'.

It's very nice to hold, and the buttons are in the best position I could ask for.

I LOVE the dedicated camera button, it even has the soft touch to focus then press to shoot (and red eye reduction works well and the flash is powerful).

It uses a Micro USB cable (I recall that most phone companies are trying to stick with this, my old Motorola Q9h used this too). Very easy and cheap to get extras.

The 3.5mm jack on the top is positioned well (much like the iPhone anyway) you can't really get that wrong :)

The screen is crisp and bright.

Battery life has been great so far, but I may invest in the extended battery just to be safe as I add more services/apps.

All I can say so far is Apple and Android have some serious competition and that's great for the consumer in the end :)

If anyone has any questions please let me know :)
[7 Mozart General] The_lil:
So do you regret switching from IOS to WP7?

I am regarding to buy one, but I am not entirely convinced. I tested it for around a hour in a shop XD, but i really did not go into great depth.

The device feels great i have to admit and i would love to have it!

How about loading times of apps as some reviews say that they take ages?

Thanks a lot btw!
[7 Mozart General] MattJ1989:
Definitely don't regret it at all. There are a few apps I miss, but meh they were ones somehow my life continues on without (who would have thought!).

Those reviews about loading times are pure crap! The longest loading time for resuming an app is Facebook (about 5 seconds at the most).

Opening most apps (even IMDB) is almost instant.

Plus having them forced in alphabetical order makes it so easy to find them and having only important ones on the start screen is great.

I would find myself taking a good 10+ seconds just finding an app on my 3GS so I think it evens out well.

Hello.

Im loving my HTC HD2. I think its a great PPC, and im happy with its settings too.. I have some questions about Android that I hope you could help me with.

1. If im gonna try Android. I want to back up my WM6.5 with all settings etc. Is it possible to make a image of my current OS+settings+programs? And How do I "go back" to my WM6.5 if its a total failure?

2. How do Android on HTC HD2 work? Does it remove WM6.5 at all or run as "dualboot"?

3. I had TyTn2 before. Many had problems with HardSPL, bricking and such.. Is it a big chance that Android will do the same?

4. Any tips? :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Goaprinz:

1. Android for HD2 is at the moment only aviable for SD-Card boot. NAND - boot will come. So SD-Card means that it wont erase anything from you winmob rom. You need HSPL (means you loose warranty, but restoring is simple) to flash a radio > or = 2.08. The rest is very simple and not dangerous. So you wont need to backup the phones date. If you format your sd card you should backup the things on it as you know. Android works quite well. like a native android phone! try it!

A real dual boot doesnt exist but will come.
