Hi guys I own a htc desire 526GPLUS with mediatek 6592 and the manufacturer doesn't released source codes

Now I want to port a rom made for another device with mt6592

Can I port it and can I use drivers by copying it from driver folder from my stock rom and I will use boot. Img from stock rom

Question 2

What makes different devices require different kernels?

If I get mt6592 source code from another device can I make it to work with mine

Please help
[Android Software Development] Isilmalith:
Hi Guys!

I'm coding a little app, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

The App does the following:

- Launches a Service which listens for an sms, then captures a picture with the cam and sends it to a predefined email adress. (no, i'm not trying to spy somebody out... I'm using the app to get a "3G-Webcam", sort of at least)

The problem:

My App works great in the emulator, but as soon as I try it on my HTC Magic (cm6, android 2.2) it stops working.

[Wildfire Android Development] mpattonm:
Good job! I am just wondering - is this ROM file identical to the one leaked earlier today on your original thread? Its got the same name but It seemed broken bad.
[Captivate General] TheSopranos16:
The Gallery app on our phone doesn't increase the detail of images after you pinch to zoom. Does anyone know of a way to fix this or a different gallery app that will do this properly?

If you view pictures directly from the camera app, it shows the full resolution of the photo when you zoom in (but its slow to pinch to zoom). If you do it from the gallery app, it just scales a lower resolution rendering of the photo to fit the screen, but it doesn't actually re-render the image at full resolution (but its very smooth). I'm looking for something that works like the iPhone's gallery app, which scales as you zoom so that the interface is smooth, but once you stop at a certain zoom level, it re-renders the image in a higher resolution (aka best of both worlds).
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Just curious, which rom are you running?
[Captivate General] TheSopranos16:
I'm running JI6 Froyo. I noticed the same issue on JH7 as well...
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
It would appear he is correct! Even on a 5MP picture of the underside of my car, I can't get any more detail then I do looking at it normally.
[Captivate General] Dungeon47:
I experience the same thing; my gallery also takes its sweet time to notice new images from downloads or edits in Photoshop. I suspect most of these anomolies are due to the beta Froyo I've been running since it was leaked.
[Captivate General] ghost77:
Gallery just sucks , it always had crappy zoomed quality with no details , Be it my Nexus one with eclair -> froyo to Cappy eclair -> froyo.

Its as if your watching thumbnails and not actual pictures.

There was modified gallery a while ago in Nexus one forums not sure if its still around, supposed to be better then default one.
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Dunno why camera shots are coming out low res (I'd imagine that it's just the gallery program that sucks), but downloaded photos on JI6 are automatically resized to 305x203.

I actually remember reading some article a while back that talked about this issue (the gallery being low-res), and mentioning that this is by design. Apparently the developers decided that UI speed is more important than photo quality. I wish I still had the url to that article..

Also, forget searching for 'gallery' in the market. All the search results are retarded wallpaper/mostly naked girl spam. I wish spamming the market with valueless programs was a hangable offense.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Have you guys tried the apk from HERE? I have it loaded and while it does load alot slower it does seem to be higher res. Give it a shot, You will have to copy over the current APK in system/app with something like Root Explorer, or uninstall the gallery then try to install. I could not get it to install but coping worked great
[Captivate General] mrpiggae:
I also remember reading an article that explained that the Gallery purposefully did not display images in their native resolution.

There is a free application in the Market called, "Floating Image" that will display images from any folder of your choosing as well as Flickr, Picase and Facebook in a floating collage of pictures. You can then tap on one and use multitouch to zoom in on the photo in it's full resolution.

I use it to display my camera roll as it allows me to see my photos in much more detail as opposed to the built in Gallery that I can't stand. The only issues that I have with it are that it stutters a little bit when using the high resolution thumbnail option and that it cannot see hidden folders.
[Captivate General] khoavuong:
I think the gallery is opengl-based and it treats photos as textures, which are limited to 1024x1024 res.

If you don't mind losing the 3d effects, download an app called JustPictures!. It's now my default photo viewer. You can double-tap to zoom to actual size or pinch-zoom. It's fast and free.

Bonus: slideshow live wallpaper
[Captivate General] TheSopranos16:
Did some searching and found an article that talks about the issue:

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2362605,00.asp

Apparently Google chose the cool 3d gallery instead of better image quality. Its clear to me why lowering the image quality is wroth it for making things smooth, but I don't know why the app can't render more detail after you zoom in. Anyway, JustPictures! works pretty good and does show better details. Its a bit slower (and the stock gallery isn't particularly fast), but it gets the job done. I wonder if JustPictures! is the best solution out there or if there are other apps worth checking out as well...
[Captivate General] Ryukeima:
Previous posters are correct that the lower image quality is part of how the program was built. However, there is an article on this site that has a link to the HTC gallery version which can improve the quality, but still is not truly 1 to 1 quality, jest better than stock.

I have just received an email from Mobilefun telling me I will not be getting the car mount I pre-ordered as it is now discontinued. I am not sure whether we should be worried or not that the official Samsung official mount for our few month old phones is now not going to be available. I have never seen a product discontinued before it was even sold.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mstrandbo:
Most peculiar. I've been checking around here too, no accessory to be found. Really need a car mount.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] yiannisthegreek:
WTF!?!?!? That is kind of scary. I havent even had the chance to think about getting the "official" accessories as of yet and to hear something like this now??? :confused:

Perhaps someone can confirm with Samsung and find out what the deal is on this?

I had the same with the carmount available on meritline... weird eh!

I've ordered the exact same of eBay though... kinda weird!

The Brodit ones not bad but neither of them really appeals to me. I wanted one I could just clip the SGS into and it would be screen mounted and powered. No messing with wires or anything. I have tried to email Samsung about it but I am not holding onto any hope of a reply.

Thought I would share with you what the higher ups in Samsung have to say about this.

My (continuing) Question

The answer
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Snuble:
Well, thats a gilbert answer... Gadgetization is androids weakest spot. And what gadgets and bling there is, well its fairly low quality.

This is iPhone's main advantage. One design and a forest of 3rd party manufacturers that have grown out of their garages and become professional suppliers.

There would be a huge upside for Samsung/HTC/Sony to mimic this by setting up their own production lines to mimic that market. I guess the problem is no one in house is willing to risk their neck and the people that sit on the money don't understand this part of the iPhone world.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] stepsch:
I don't want to use both hands while attaching the device to a car mount - so 3rd party accessories are no-go.

I ordered an original T959 Vibrant car mount for my international i9000: http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=48828&cat=5138

They ship nearly worldwide. It's 10 days ago and I am still waiting for its arrival.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Nirvana388:
You guys should do the DIY one from this thread, I did it and it is amazing, it looks so good, and holds the phone really nice.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=837841&page=2

Dirt cheap too, for a custom mount the whole thing cost me maybe 10 bucks at the most, including the epoxy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] seraphine:
So did you get your mount yet? Does the Vibrant mount work (properly) with the i9000?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] stepsch:
Hi,

the first order was lost, so they sent another one, which arrived in 5 days or something like that.

Yes, it works as designed.

Snap it in, push the USB to the phone (the small box at one end of the mount) with one finger, that's it.

The phone detects immediately that it is a car mount and if you have installed the car app it starts also without delay.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kapollo:
Same thing here with desk dock (original as far as I can say) bought in Poland on Ebay-ish website. Samsung's app downloaded from xda (it's here around somewhere) jumps in the moment I connect the phone. Have problems with line-out though, but I'm on custom ROM so maybe that's the problem.

Nevertheless it really looks like S is making monkeys out of us.

Hi

UK owners can buy through the Amazon marketplace (supplier = The Tech Lodge):

Search for: Samsung Navigation Kit - Cellular phone car kit - Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000 - £32.60 inc delivery

Kikatek also have them as of yesterday:

Search for: ECS-V968BE - £35.99 inc delivery

And LambdaTek (as of yesterday AND the same stock levels as Kikatek. Hmmm, I wonder.....)

Search for: B590946 - between £33 and £36 depending on post option.

I can't post links at the mo coz I've not yet posted over 8 replies :(

The parts numbers for the above is ECS-V968BE, whereas the T595 models on eBay is ECS-M979BEGSTA - as far as I can tell they are identical, so maybe the M979 is just a bit of branding for T-Mobile?

I'm going to order off of Amazon UK.

Just a quick update for anyone who's remotly interested...

Dock arrived - excellent quality etc as genuine. Fits phone perfectly as it should, but prevents the use of any type of case - I was using a CaseMate barely there, but even this is too thick to fit. The holder comes with a charger, so no need to buy one.

Don't like screen suckers so I had already planned to mod it when it arrived. I worked out that the swivel head has the same diameter as most of the after-market cheapie flexible arm type holders. So I got hold of one an cut the head section off and mounted it to the 'no holes' phone dash fixing I have. Very please with the result :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] rich_bown:
I have just put mine on ebay as it doesn't fit the galaxy nexus I now have.

Please note that the USB audio output doesn't work on Phones running 2.3.3 but you can turn the holder through 180 degrees and use the leads - also there is no hole for the camera if you want to use ionroad or similar.
