Sandisk more me, no problem so far
[Nexus One General] daijizai:
My replacement Kingston class 4 holds out class 2 speeds on write of large files, less than that on write of small files. Blazingly slow on write, but faster on read than my class 6 8gb sandisk...

All in all... I can live with it for now...
[Nexus One General] blunden:
The article below is an interesting read regarding Kingston and the sdcard market in general.

Hi all

i'm searching for something to open opendocument files

i mean, the file made with openoffice and other ISO/IEC 26300:2006 compliant programs (i.e .odt, .ods and like)

[i cannot post link... btw wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument ]

i tried Thinkpad free (i got for free in my SGS) and also other apps i don't remember (even one i paid for it x.x ) but noone will open my odt files ;_;

the only solution i got is Offiviewer who don't "read" document files, but send them to a server who convert into pdf and send back... :\

do you know an app who can let me read my documents?

ty everyone for the help :)
[Android Apps and Games] TomTasche:
Sorry for answering such an old answer, but maybe the thread's author is still following this...

A colleague and I were working hard on such an app. It's released on the Android Market for a while now, and it's called OpenOffice Document Reader.

Feel free to tell me what you think and suggest new features (yes, we're working on editting ;) ).

I'm going to create a new thread for this app in a few minutes here on XDA...

Have a nice day

Tom
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
Hi all,

trying to get my feet wet with some android hacking and thought getting my AR.Drone to work with my legend would be a good start. It requires connecting to the ad-hoc network created by the drone. The normal way is to edit /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini as described e.g. here: projects.ardrone.org/boards/1/topics/show/1098 but /system doesn't seem writable even though I have root. I then found this app for the desire: code.google.com/p/desire-adhoc/ but the legend has a different wifi chip, so it didn't work. Attempting to reproduce what that app does I did

$ adb shell

# su -c 'insmod /system/lib/modules/tiwlan_drv.ko'

insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/tiwlan_drv.ko' failed (No such file or directory)

even though that file definitely exists. Am I missing something here, or is that part of the annoying restrictions still present even on the rooted legend? Ad-hoc wifi must be possible somehow, the wifi-tether guys managed to get it to work. Unfortunately their code is a bit over my head. Any pointers?

thanks

-felix
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Do it from recovery mode. We don't have access to /system in normal usage of phone (you get used to it).
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
okay, I guess I have to learn how to bake my own update.zip.

still curious though, why am I getting "no such file or directory" if it's clearly there (and a similar method seems to work on the desire)?

I also tried this:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754961&highlight=legend

Which is a quite cleverly hacked wpa_supplicant, but that resulted in no wifi at all any more, even though the patched supplicant is officially the same version. strange.

any clue how the wifi-tether guys do it?
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
No, those command work. Boot your phone to recovery mode, then mount the /system partition from the ClockworkMOD menu. then you can execute your commands, they should do it. :D

Also, questions like this shouldn't really be in the development section. Just so you know. :D
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
You got it all wrong guys... first you dont need to su -c as you already are root. Second... you need to load sdio.ko prior to tiwlan_drv.ko. And no we do not perform these in recovery mode ;)
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
I thought he was editing files... Oh well, I'll read more carefully in future. Sorry guys. :o

EDIT:

Yeah, look:

So he could edit from recovery mode. But, I was still an idiot, I said to do the insmod things from recovery. I am very sorry for wasting time here, I'll learn to read carefully and give proper answers.

Sorry :(
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
hmm, okay. I figured since I'm _trying_ to develop something...

well, next time.

aaaahhh, that got me a bit further thanks! very confusing error message...

so module loading works now, but the phone just reboots a few seconds after I set

"iwconfig tiwlan0 mode ad-hoc"

any further advice?

Also I guess the confusion was my own fault since I rolled three different ways of doing one thing into the same post...
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Oh man, I've said all the wrong things today. I'm so sorry. I'll just leave this thread now. :o
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
Yes. Loading modules just isn't enough in our case. You need to load firmware too before you bring interface up otherwise your system will reboot ;)

Check Gratiend ROM thread or look into init.legend.rc for hints on firmware loading...
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
thanks. found this

/system/bin/tiwlan_loader \

-f /system/etc/wifi/Fw1273_CHIP.bin -e /proc/calibration \

-i /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini

after googling init.legend.rc. doesn't seem to make a difference though. also tried using tiwlan.ini from the wifi tether guys, but no luck. device still reboots after setting ad-hoc mode. I guess I give up, there's no-one answering to my question on the wifi-tether google group either. i guess just because it's open source doesn't mean it's for the uninitiated...
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
Try sleep for 1 or 2 seconds after you load firmware, then bring interface up or start wpa_supplicant.

I you are using patched wpa_supplicant I guess you will have one more obstacle. It supports only wext aware devices and I guess our driver is not wext aware...
[Legend Android Development] exicar:
I solved the problem by installing Cyanogenmod (all other tries failed)
[Legend Android Development] sanktnelson:
I enter the commands by hand, so there's already a delay in between. And I'm doing this by hand precisely because the patched supplicant didn't work on the legend. I guess now I know why. Thanks for all the advice though.

I had a CM6 nightly installed and toyed around with it a bit, but I actually use my FM radio (I know, barely anyone else does...) so I need to use a HTC ROM. liked the CM6 in a lot of other respects though. still out of the question for now.

Also I would eventually like to contribute whatever comes out of this to a proper AR.drone app that requires root and nothing else.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
UPDATE: This was causing too many lockups, moving to a minimal setup that just sets the CPU clock.

This will work with ANY kernel without perflock (nearly any kernel other than stock).

Old tweak removed, new one uploaded.

This is developed primarily for myself, please take this into consideration.

This just sets the CPU to a max of 806MHz and lowers the max clock as the battery drains, it's the collin_ph mod stripped to almost nothing.

Most of the credit goes to:

Collin_ph

[EVO 4G Android Development] lucidvtec:
anyone try this yet??? flash in recovery???? or install in file explorer
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Flash in recovery.

This works great for me, I hope you like it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] biassj:
Do you need to install Myn's collin_ph before this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xHausx:
I was thinking of trying one of these battery life fixes but Im trying to figure out what the purpose of the userinit script they all have is for? It looks to be a pretty blatant security hole running a script off the SD card but it's likely that I'm missing something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] asj2583:
Regarding kernals this works on, are these with or without havs or does this not matter with your mod?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
It should work with all, looking at the code.
[EVO 4G Android Development] oxxomxxo:
If you have colins mod flashed, do you have to disable before flashing this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Nope, it will just overwrite it. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackroseMD1:
Thinking about giving this a try when I get home, but I'm running Toast's .35 on CM 6.1 Nightly #152. I know you said that it will work on Myn's ROM with King and Ziggy's kernels, but has anyone tested it on CM 6.1 or Toast's .35?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xavier1022:
yes you need a no HAVS kernel
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
How did you come to this conclusion? The OP says this tweak is for King's#11 and Ziggy's kernel, both of which implement HAVS....

[KERNEL] [2.6.32.24] [HAVS] [BFS] [BFQ] KiNgxKernel #11/#11 "Con is an Artist"

edit...after being directed to Kings site I realized I should probably doing more reading before posting...:p
[EVO 4G Android Development] NinjaPenguin:
If you read on Kings website the changelog for BFS 11, the first line reads HAVS is out, and he went back to SVS. It will work with Kings BFS 11
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
Here's a question for the OP. It's been stated that JuiceDefender-like apps compliment the Colin_ph battery tweak, would the same hold true with yours or do you think there would be conflict between the tweak and said app? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer...:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
Lol...touche, I guess I'm gonna go back and do some more reading. Thanks.:o
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, all holds true.

My tweak is still the Collin_ph mod at core, just my own touches to it along with some code stripped out to minimize CPU usage.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
Thank you very much for your timely response.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Unpossible:
I tried flashing and it gave me this,

E:Can't chow/mod /system/bin/batt-rm.sh (no such file or directory) E:Failure at line 9

Installation aborted.

I'm on VirusRom Anthrax 2.2 3.30 build with ziggy's kernel. Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
It should still have installed, seems I left some residual commands in the install script.

Because every command before that error should have run, it should still be installed.

So...until I post my new changes, just ignore the error, lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] mateezyforeezy:
What rom and kernel are you using with this tweak neotelos?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Myn's 2.2 RLS2 and I had been switching between King's and Ziggy's kernels.
[EVO 4G Android Development] anthony1487:
So to remove I just need to do a nand restore?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dog44:
This makes my phone unusable. I have Warm with ziggy kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Ziggy's also has started giving me issues with his newest release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] achllles:
I just went with setcpu. Easy to uninstall, and understand.

What's the lowest frequency available on ziggy's kernel? 245?
[EVO 4G Android Development] s3lynx:
yea same thing happend for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, nearly all kernels will have 245 as the lowest.

I don't think the processor can scale any lower.
[EVO 4G Android Development] achllles:
Wish Stock or Zig's have the option for it.

Net's on my sig has it.

I'm wishing for it since with the setcpu configuration, the consumption goes to around 25-30mA in about a minute or less after the screen is turned off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jhoffy22:
Thanks for the credit in the OP :)

Just got done reading through this thread...haven't seen any reports of battery life yet, what's the scoop guys?
[EVO 4G Android Development] s3lynx:
have ziggy and king 11 kernal installed with collins battery tweak and after this got installed the phone became unstable and i had to restore back to a backup

=(
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
This was just a crap mod, stopped working for me when I started switching kernels.

I've stripped it down to something everyone can use.

Enjoy :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] mateezyforeezy:
So to get this tweak to work all I have to do is install it from zip in recovery mode? Do I have to type anything in terminal emulator?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Just flash in recovery, if you want to see if it's working, go into terminal and type:

pidof batt.sh

If you get a number back, it's working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jblazea50:
OP, will this work on CM6.1 RC1? Also, should I disable SetCPU?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
It should work and yes, you should always disable SetCPU for mods like these.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jblazea50:
once you type pidof batt.sh in terminal emulator, what does the number mean?

what's a good number or is there a reference somewhere?

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
pid = process id

pidof = process id of XXX

So you are literally seeing if the script is running as a process.

The number will vary, and may even vary between boots.

A senseless rom will have a lower number than a stock rom, etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
Does this tweak have a manual config like the collins? so we can set the OC we want?
[EVO 4G Android Development] phajen:
From what I'm seeing in the code, this is just a very basic script now that underclocks based on the same formulas that Collin's used. But, there is no in-phone customization unless you open up the file and modify the variables and then reflash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, that is correct. I basically said this in the original post. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
I really like this ROM, but there are a couple of things I would like to change, and I just don't know how. If anyone can help me, I'd be really grateful...

1) I would like to keep the transparent status bar, but I would prefer all the stock icons. How can I do this?

2) I would like to use stock widgets not themed ones, is there a way to do this? The reason is that when I download additional widgets from HTC, the look is not consistent. If there is a way to theme the other widgets, I would like that even better.

3) I like the transparent launcher, but some of the buttons do not "light up" when you touch them. The behavior is inconsistent - a small thing, but annoying. If I could move the buttons further apart, I would like that too - like the Lowrider launcher.

Thanks in advance for your help...

Matt_TX.

PS: If these things are fixed in RLS3 I would be happy to donate to myn (in fact I will do so anyway as he has done great work) please let me know...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk63:
What I would do is grab a stock rom, pull the apks and other files you want to stay stock then use them to replace the same files in Myn's rom and then flash that. You might have to sign the zip, but I'm not sure and no guarantee that this won't break other stuff.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo4gMarlon:
I love this tom but one thing is ticking me off. If I play my music with headphones on. The sounds keep fading in and out. How can I fix this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vcumsk:
I am also looking for the stock icons in notification bar, while leaving the bar opaque black (instead of transparent in your case).

Edit: nvm did this myself.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenalv:
Do you have compression selected under the DSPManager. When I unselected it it stopped doing that for me.
[Desire HD General] who knows:
random photos from the htc desire hd, there "ok" though my old nokia n95 takes better photos lol

http://yfrog.com/02imag0010bnjx
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
they look pretty good. I remember reading somewhere that you should change the ISO setting to 100 or 200 for best results. Default is on auto i think.
[Desire HD General] FutureClimax:
I have changed iso for 100, much better quality.
[Desire HD General] Patrock.nl:
low ISO is good for photo situations with enough lighting. as the lighting is weaker, the shutter-time will be longer, this will result in motion in the photo, so be careful with leaving it on that setting.

with indoor photo's it's fairly normal to use ISO 400 if available. the grain will increase because the sensitivity of the sensor is increased.

haven't been able to check out the DHD camera app, as soon as my DHD gets in i will start playing around with it :)

what helped on my touch HD was to set the ISO to 200, brightness and contrast to my likings in medium lighting situation,white balance to sun(which i usually update quickly before the shot to the lighting situation) and the clarity option a bit higher, and set the JPEG compression to optimal setting so no JPEG artifacts would appear, this way it was set to an all-round setting witch works neatly in most situations.

this method resulted in excellent pictures that auto mode would have never gotten.
[HD2 General] sagytb:
I just got new device, and I have installed HSPL 3 successfuly.

Now I am trying to install a new coocked rom and I got the follwoung error:

ERROR 266 - The update ultility cannot get respond from your pda, check USB connection...

I have tried Hard reset, I have tried flash directly from flash format menu (HARD RESET while volume button is down) and with no success :(

In the phone I can see that it connect by writing USB on the buttom.

Any solutions ? Any idea ?
[HD2 General] jsmccabe78:
some basic triage:

1- when you manually go into bootloader, it shows hspl correct? (i assume so, but have to ask...) if you haven't done so, do and make sure it is there.

2- what rom are you trying to flash?

3- also, you can flash a rom via usb after manually entering bootloader. have you tried that?
[HD2 General] Scabes24:
First follow jsmccabe's steps. If you still havent figured it out...

- Make sure it says 2.08.hspl in bootloader, not 2.08.0000

- Make sure you are flashing correctly, put the customRUU or flashoholicRUU (whatever your using) in a folder with the ROM.nbh, connect the device to pc via active sync, run the utility. If still gettin error 266 try from bootloader.

- Try flashing from SD

- Try running as administrator

- Try a different ROM or redownloading the ROM
[HD2 General] sagytb:
I tried to flash different roms include RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_3.14.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.42.50.09U_2.14.50.04_2_Ship

In bootloader it appears correctly with SPL-2/08.HSPL 8G XE, and in the white eare it write Serial in in the begining and when I try to flash it change to USB.

Another thing is when I try reflash HSPL3_PKG - I can, it flash...

I tried the follwoing to flash from SD-Card and it stay on Serial - it didn't start falshing..

1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)

2. Download your prefered Rom from the LEO Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC

3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh

4. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card

5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone

6. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top

7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update

8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.

Any other options?

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2659&c=t-mobile_htc_hd7
[HD7 General] ace10134:
You say "faster", yet speed depends on the browser, etc. Unless you actually did a mobilespeedtest.net, the only "speed" you're feeling is the new WP7 browser.

Anyways, look at any of the specs, WireFly for example (http://www.wirefly.com/catalog/t-mobile/htc/hd7-black/)

"Data Download Speed - 3G/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA"

[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
i don't want an e-penis contest. when the op gets the phone, they'll see it can handle h+, why would t-mobile go thru all the trouble of updating their data speeds and then release a phone not capable of that ;)?
[HD7 General] ace10134:
It's important for the OP to know that it DOESN'T have H+. If he buys it under the impression that it does, he would be upset to find out that it doesn't. Only a few new phones like the myTouch 4G are getting H+
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
