" long press on the home screen, which does not bring me to shortcuts but instead brings me to 6 apps on my phone including Folder Organizer"

sounds like your long pressing the home button to me. try long pressing a blank area on your screen itself buddy
[Droid X General] JRobzilla:
Okay, so for a while I was among those fortunate to have their Batteru Usage Stats not force close. For those not sure what I'm talking about, it's under Settings -> Battery Manager then touching the "battery indicator".

Well as of recent I started to get force closes like others, and decided to charge up the battery 100% and wipe my battery stats using Koush's bootstrap.

Upon rebooting my force close issues are gone (for now). Now I don't know for sure if this was a fluke or what, and I'm not sure how many ways one can wipe their battery stats but if you are getting force closes then give it a try.

Anyways, hope it helps.
[Droid X General] InfamousDX:
What do you exactly mean by "wipe my battery stats" ??
[Droid X General] JRobzilla:
I can only vouch for Koush's bootstrap recovery, which has an option to wipe battery stats.

That being said the problem came back, so it may just be a temporary fix.
[Droid X General] JRobzilla:
Okay, another update to this thread:

After the force close in battery usage statistics came back I let it go for a while. Just today after a complete recharge I went back into recovery and wiped stats again. Upon rebooting I was able to see my usage statistics again without force closing.

Well, I plugged the phone into the PC to transfer a blackbar theme to my SD card, and after that hastily opened droid x bootstrap and rebooted back to koush's recovery to flash it.

After flashing it successfully, and upon rebooting I now get my force close again.

Sooooo.....

Now to figure out if my hasty boot to recovery (it was doing the preparing SD card thing when I had the app boot to recovery) is what's causing this or the actual flashing of the blackbar mod (for whatever reason) is the culprit.

Of course all this was done with an "I wonder...." approach so I'm going to try and narrow it down when I get a chance.
[Droid X General] debaucher:
I am not sure if there is a clear "flash this or mod that" root to the problem.

I have had this problem and it persists from full sbf's, different roms etc...

It comes and goes as it pleases even when I do nothing different to my system, so I think it is more of a base kernel issue with 2.2.

Hopefully this will be fixed in 2.3 (if we get it etc..) but until then I just live with it working/not working as its mood dictates.

Just my opinion

now im coming from many other android related phones but what i remember most that may help....ima test this but i remember ClockworkMod Recovery being used for MT3GS.......we go into our stock recovery; click update.zip (which was the clockwork recovery) and it would boot up a recovery mode that way; has anyone attempted this?

....Just a thought towards root or atleast custom recovery
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big Dawg 23:
The way I understand is the locked or bug in NAND will not allow for a recover. It removes all SU permissions on reboot.

Look not to rain on ur parade buddy but in order to do that on the mts you first had to install the enginering img to the phone that allows unsigned packages. Now since we have a copy of the eng img for the g2 (we as in the devs not me) and the phone will not let you downgrade to it so therefore the mts way of loading a custom recovery won't work. I traded in my mts to get my g2.

Hi

I was wondering, does anyone know how to fix the following swype error:

"The Swype package you installed does not match the screen size"

I dont want to install another swype version for the x10 - so please do not point me to one, i have managed to get my hands on the recent release 2.6.47 which is pretty cool and i want to fix the above error.

Can you help or point me in the right direction?

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] FateZero:
Use this one, It works Perfect!

Mod Edit: Swype is warez and not permitted here.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] MarylandCookie:
I have that. I dont think you read my message lol...

I have a later version which has a nicer keyboard and keypress sound and would prefer to fix it for the x10 as it complaining about the incorrect screen size.

Thanks anyway.

Version postet by OP

The good: the swype error just only comes at the first usage in portrait mode.

The bad: landscape mode doesn't work, it's only left half.

As it's my first time installing, is this lanscape error common for all Versions ? Whats the difference using x10 or WVGA version ?

THX
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Phantasm4489:
not only do you need that specific version but you also need the one with the correct resolution for the x10. This one is probably 800x480 and thats why you get this error. You need the one for the motorola droid which will be designed for 854x480.

Hope this is the forum for this question, if not - sorry!

I purchased a new and larger SD card, my old SD has 50% FAT32 partition and the rest as EXT partition.

Most of my applications are installed by default to the EXT.

Is there a way to move all the EXT partition data to the new SD??

Hey guys no one has had problems with the GPS fix?

Thanks
[Desire HD General] BigMango:
Nope, it's working great.

Why? Do you have a problem with it?
[Desire HD General] rossysaurus:
i tested the GPS as soon as i got it. caught my position within 15 seconds to 10 metres from its first ever try.
[Desire HD General] matthiasdeblaiser:
don't forget to turn on your data connection at all times when using gps (locations or maps) because otherwise, you will not get a gps fix

despite HTC's thourough promotion of the Locations app with "preloaded maps", you still need a data connection to use the locations program. Utterly ridicoulous but heck, what can you do...
[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
It's not impossible to use Locations without data, it will just take longer to get a GPS fix.
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
I'll have to disagree. I only need data connection to get the AGPS data which speeds up fix. After that the Locations app works fine, even with data turned off. Have you downloaded maps to your SD card?
[Desire HD General] paulus_01:
Well...

I am not sure if I i have a problem, but this is my situation:

Both me and my girlfriend own a DHD.

I have installed copilot on both devices and when I turn on copilot and turn on gps (but have data connection disabled), her GPS fix takes about 30 seconders - 2 minutes, and mine may take > 15 minutes.

Surely 15 minutes should not be acceptable, even with data turned of ,right??
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
Try downloading Gps Status from the market. Use it to reset your AGPS data and download new one. See if it makes any difference.
[Desire HD General] paulus_01:
Thx, will have a look when I am at home and let you know if it helped.

It can improve the GPS fix, even if I do not turn on the data connection thereafter?
[Desire HD General] devil slime:
i had a problem with the lock. i went to the market place and got a normal gps satelite info applcaition. i then waitied for about 20 minutes for it to get a fix(first time) when i then opened HTC locations it worked properly and gets a fix really fast. i guess its just the first time.

SO if you are not getting a fix, WAIT a while for the first time maybe even 30 mins and then it will be fine.
[Desire HD General] paulus_01:
BTW, my GPS fix issue has now been solved....do not know why, but at least it fixes within 1-2 mins or so...
[Desire HD General] vansmuk:
Sometimes it's all about waiting. GPS locating can be very dodgy since it depends on too many factors and is initially a veeeery old technology.

I heard that soon tho EU will launch their own positioning sistem (Galileo - worth 3.4 billion;] ) that's accurate to the meter and since in some way will cooperate with NAVSTAR ( the US current GPS ) will hopefully have better "reception".

Until then - we wait and rely on bloody AGPS :D

What you are doing wrong is not being patient.

Erase and reformat your SD card. Then recopy the Android folder from whatever build you are trying to use.

Then ClrCad; Haret; then WAIT..... Green HTC logo can last up to 20 min as it is writing a 1 GB data file.

Be patient.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jefe21:
Was talking with Pioneer regarding their AVIC series as well as others but mainly about using an Android phone to control Pandora just like they allow the iPhone too. This is what they asked me:

Im trying to get Pioneer to come out with an Android app to control the phone(or at least Pandora) from the headunit

Not sure if the Galaxy S/Vibrant comes is compatible or if another Android platform is? I can play and pause Pandora from my X920BT head unit through Bluetooth but would rather control everything from the headunit like most people can that have an Iphone and a Pioneer Head Unit with Pandora Link.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpcameron:
It sounds like you're thinking of AVRCP, which is a standard BT profile. There are different versions of it that reveal different capabilities.

1.0 covers basic play/pause/stop. 1.3 adds the ability to see what the current status is (playing, paused or stopped), as well as metadata (such as artist, album and track information). 1.4 adds even more features, such as the ability to control multiple devices, browse through the devices' metadata including a "now playing" playlist, and even basic search abilities.

However, what you are talking about seems to be the reverse of what most people want with their handsets and BT. I'm not certain if AVRCP support is inherently bidirectional. However, now that there is a name to what you are looking for, perhaps someone can steer you in the right direction.

(And, BTW, this really ought to be moved to Vibrant Q&A, since this really has nothing to do with development.)

Maybe if we can get more Andoid/X920BT users to pole them for attention, they may do something about it....

Good work!

welcome to the forum!

1.) read all the sticky threads in the "development" forum. you'll find tons of info, guides faqs, etc. you'll get to know what you need to do to flash roms on your phone. look for the wiki especially as it has good explanations.

2.) after you're done with reading, reading and reading, you can write me a private message and i can help you along finding a rom for you. but you'll have to read and read first, other wise you'll end up braking (or "bricking") your phone.

the wiki i was talking can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking

that's a must and it will give you essential steps, you'll learn how to:

- figure out if you have a 32a or 32b htc magic/mytouch3g/fender (or whichever htc magic phone you own). you'll just have to figure out which of the 2 you have (32a or 32b).

- figure out which radio and spl version you have

- find, download and install "android sdk"

- install the adb driver correctly so your computer recognizes your phone

- use fastboot (and use the command "fastboot devices" which will show your attached device)

once you've made it til there and the command "fastboot devices" gives you your phone model write me a pm.

you should be able to solve/learn all these steps with the posted wiki!

good luck,
