The only solution is that buy an FM transmitter with a 3.5 mm jack entrance .
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] M4t3s:
Yeah, I had that one time, but it was cheap crap and it got broken and not working ever since....well, i guess, I'll have to keep N86 for music and photos (got great 8MPx camera made by Carl Zeiss...makes beautiful picts ;-))

Thanks anyway ;-)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] M4t3s:
Hi everyone, I just found somewhere on this forum, that there is actually a device, that you plug into microUSB port, set the FM frequency and listen through car speakers. It was of course for older devices, but have you ever heard about that thing? I guess, that would solve my problem...thanks for any response
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
I didn't quite get what your query is, but what you have described is exactly the function of an FM Transmitter. They are very much available and should work on the Wildfire as well.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kersenon:
Hi, there is a device like that... I found it at amazon, te wire that goes into the microUSB port is just for charge your phone:

WP7 can going on the TG01? i want go wp& on tg01
[TG01 General] wafeeq:
I don't think that will happen any time soon..

Hardware is not compatible, and the TG01 is getting to be an old device, and there is no serious developers working on WP7.

May be later if someone releases development tools.

But I won't be optimistic to see it soon
[TG01 General] DunkDream:
Agree with this.

You won't see WP7 on the TG01 in the near future.

anybody know how to type one? my email address has some in it and the only way i can do it at the moment it to close the phone so the soft keyboard comes up and find it in the menu then reopen it again, anybody know if its possible and if so where it can be found?

edit: oops i mean on mini pro
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ReneVonDeCafe:
You're serious right?

Press the Sym/àü button on the bottom right... A screen will pop up with all possible other characters.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] JaffaTB:
it does nothing on my phone, i press it and the cursor changes to the same one as when i press the blue button to get numbers, i have got slideit keyboard installed, could it be sometthing to do with that?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sideromelane:
I had this issue. Either a: You turned off the option for it in the settings or b: there is a losse connection between the keyboard and motherboard (My problem was the latter). If this is the case, refer to your service centre for repair. (Or strip the phone apart, re-seat the ribbon and reassemble, which is what *I* did, but then again, I do know how to follow warrenty service guidelines so as not to void my warrenty...)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bazalicious:
That sym key only works when you have the default input activated. Since you have SlideIt installed, you'll have to long-press on the text area, select 'Input method', choose 'Default', insert the underscore using the sym button, and then reactivate SlideIt. A little bit long winded but that's the only way when you're not using the default input all the time.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] christian_a_torres:
That is correct. No third party input application takes into account the sym/au button. I have given the debug log files aswell as the keyid (found in the layout files of the keyboard) of that button to the author of smartkeyboard pro. He has it on his to-do list. Hopefully he can whip up something to fix the problem.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] JaffaTB:
i have made my own fix, i added my email address to a slideit keyboard shortcut, now i just type "LJC" and my email addy comes up :)

cheers for the help though, i thought i was going mad ;)
[HD2 Accessories] jerrymc2:
the original earphone is not the one that i want. the music controller is good, but my ears suffer a lot due to the giant top size. i cut it and combine it with a 3.5mm extended-line, so i can use my own 3.5mm earphone instead, which is much better and comfortable.

Is it possible to enable a certain live wallpaper(Living Music) only while music is playing?

so that when music is playing it is applied, and then when stopped it reverts back to the old wallpaper?

with this wallpaper this functionality would be awesome.
[Android Software Development] onecsguy:
Great Idea

Im the developer of living music wallpaper, i was googleing my product ...

Great idea: i checked and it is possible. Ill probably make another app soon using that idea of changing wallpapers based on system events or schedules, set times, set actions such as music player open, etc.

How to enter the bootloader mode in ipaq 214?
[Android Software Development] fuxp:
Hi everyone,

I'm working on a small app. I'm launching the MainActivity and there's some Code. And after some specific Code, I've to wait for an incoming SMS and do other stuff in the MainActivity. But How are the Data's from the Incoming SMS passed to the Main Activity?

I've this BroadCast Receiver:

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{

//---get the SMS message passed in---
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
SmsMessage[] msgs = null;
String str = "";

//---just a trial with app Context
// Starting appState = ((Starting)context);
//	appState.setState("Receiver Datas");

if (bundle != null)
{
//---retrieve the SMS message received---
Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
msgs = new SmsMessage[pdus.length];
for (int i=0; i<msgs.length; i++){
msgs[i] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[])pdus[i]);
str += "SMS from " + msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress();
str += " :";
str += msgs[i].getMessageBody().toString();
str += "\n";
}

//appState.setState(str);
//---display the new SMS message---

}
}

My Solution with the Application Context doesn't work...Any Ideas or Suggestions?

Thanks a lot in advance
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Can you just launch it and pass it the data you need in the intent extras?

Intent it=new Intent();
it.setClassName("com.path","com.path.YourAppActivity");
it.putExtra("something","value1");
it.putExtra("something_else","value2");
startActivity(it);
[Android Software Development] fuxp:
So this can't work, because the Activity is already running...

So the Activity is running and is doing some stuff and then it has to wait until an SMS is received...and then continue...but it has to be in the same Activity.

Like you mentioned it I would start a new Activity...
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
I'm not entirely sure what it is that you're doing, but you may have to spawn this off as a service, then let the service handle SMS stuff and call back to its parent activity when something needs to be signaled. In this case, you'd need to implement some kind of callback Interface to handle events from the service.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhindsight:
Hi all,

I'll give a quick outline here then go into more detail below if you need it. i've tried things suggested in the other bricked htc threads but none seem to work.

I've basically follwed the root guide at droiden, made a gold card and rooted my htc desire phone which went ok. problem was i then installed the suggested rom in the tutorial which was for an amoled screen but i 've got an slcd screen (i'm thick).

The upshot is my htc desire will only start up sometimes and when it does just goes to a loading screen with a bright colourful x then switches off. holding volume down and power or back and power doesn't bring up the boot menu or fast boot. i've tried to flash from one of the ruu.exe files but it just keeps saying my phone has less than 30% charge (it doesn't) and quits the ruu. Is there any way to recover my phone via another method? I've got the coldcard used to root the phone.

Many thanks

Detailed description

i've basically followed the guide to root here at droiden

and installed the rom here de frost rom it suggests.

rooted fine then i flashed the rom (the de_frost one suggested in the tutorial) - got stuck on a colourful X screen and now won't turn on. it'll only turn on if i connect to a pc and open unrevoked but then it just boots to the colourful x screen until it goes off and then i'm back to the begining.

going off that other thread it sounds like i've used the amoled rom when i've not got an amoled screen.

to make matters worse i've followed these two steps here in other threads on here which suggested a new ota or ruu. ota wais a broken link and with ruu.exe i get an error saying my battery is below 30% (it's not) and so it won't go any further.

are there any other options available to me to restore my phone bearing in mind that volume down and power doesn't bring up the boot screen (just white htc screen then colourful X screen) so i can't even do a hard reset that way. Not bothered about wiping the phone's memory just want to get it back so i can start from scratch with the right rom. i have the gold card used to root the phone.

any help appreciated - thanks.

can someone advise me of a good stable rom which will work with a slcd screen?

for any who has the same problem - think it was a schoolboy error. when it sticks on the x screen the options must be in the background. press volume down then press power and it boots.
[Desire General] machmandp:
Hi

this is basically going to be a rant and rave but hopefully a constuctive one

For years i have had smartphones, mainly WM but have strayed to Symbian once and now Android with the Desire

I remember upgrading from the TYTN to the TYTNII and HTC not supplying the drivers we had no proper divx playback and this continued onto the Touch HD which is pretty much why i dediced to go to Android.

Now i have the Desire which i must admit is a very good phone but the storage spce is laughable even with Froyo update which helps a bit it's pathetic

Now i cant wholly blame HTC for this as it's the Android OS that is causing the issue but having more Internal Memory would help.

Strange that the reason for Android not having all data on the sd was to help with piracy and i must admit i have been very conciencous through the years and always bought what i used but now googles policy is forcing me the other way, why pay for apps that i have to uninstall so i can install something else.

Windows Mobile has allowed SD card installs since my first 2003 device, Android has taken a massive step back in my opinion. So much for the 1000's of apps on the android market, it does not say you can only browse them but dont install many as your phone will grind to a halt.

so not so long ago i thought i would get rid of the desire and try another android device only with more internal mem.

i looked at the X10 , looks a good phone but it's still on 1.6 and the promised updates are still just promises.

the Galaxy s looks excellent and has loads of space but it looking around it seems to have quite a few issues with lagging and the GPS issues.

So i thought about looking at the Desire HD but i have problems with the Battery life on the Desire and as the HD battery is smaller there is no way i could live with it.

It seems as if the Maunfacturers are just happy to churn these things out without too much thought , maybe it's cause they always want us to upgrade but just think if one actually made a phone that does what is is supposed to do and do them well they may end up with making a killing.

Rant mode over apart from now that i dont use sense i still cant find a 4x4 rss widget
[Desire General] AndroHero:
FYI, the battery is smaller on the desire HD because the 2nd generation snapdragon it has, has much improved battery performance so its not needed :rolleyes:
[Desire General] hamdir:
sigh...here we go again...root your device, root your device

you are willing to go as far as buying a new handset?? but your not willing to root?

root your device, install A2SD+ and SD speed fix and you will never look back, it runs flawless

if you cant be bothered learning how, ask someone to do it for you

Tech magazines are choosing the HTC desire as phone as the year as one of the most balanced android phones available

issues like app storage, music/video stutter (due to slow SD read) and even gaming performance can be fixed or improved by rooting your device
[Desire General] EddyOS:
The point is you shouldn't HAVE to root your Desire. Look at the Desire HD - 1.5GB of internal space. HTC realised they made a mistake and have now corrected this.

Just cause A2SD is available if you root some people don't WANT to root as it's shouldn't have been needed. For some warranty is actually important
[Desire General] machmandp:
hi again

I dont want to start arguments but as EddyOS wrote why should we have to root ?

to get the desire running well you have to invalidate the warranty does not sound too good.

anyhow i am rooted and use the Move2SDEnabler to move as many apps as possible but kept the stock rom as no orange rom is available as yet in case of warranty issues.

but some cannot be moved and i have 22mb free

a brief list of some of the app sizes i have

Google Maps 8.81mb

Swype 6.03mb

paypal 4.79mb

Ndrive 4.39mb

Gmail 4.1mb

Folder Org 3.88mb

launcher Pro 3.73mb

titanium Backup 2.88mb

Moblox 2.88

beautiful widgets 2.11mb

angry birds 1.92mb

just with these thats 45mb i obviously have more apps installed but as each one takes up anywhere from a few k to 2 mb then how are we expected to be able to install a good amount apps

can i do without any of the above maybe but the point is why should i have to - i purchased them and dont forget the main advertising points about Android are the Market and Customising the Launcher with Widgets.

And as regards to the desire having been chosen as the best phone i wonder how many of the reviewers actually use the phone daily or is it based on a few days usage.

I was under the impression that how i use Froyo Apps2SD was pretty much the same as Apps2SD+ but if you now different then please point me in the right direction

Thanks
[Desire General] EddyOS:
A2SD in FroYo only moves the app itself and not the data accociated with it. This only works on apps that have been enabled by the developer to be moved. A2SD+ differs by actually using the EXT3 partition on the SD card as internal memory so all the app data is stored on the SD card (bar some data which has to remain on the device).

HTC have since addressed things with their new handsets by giving them a LOT more internal memory so this should be a thing of the past BUT it doesn't help Desire owners who, like you, can't root as there isn't a stock RUU to revert to for warranty issues (which is a whole different matter and why I only get generic handsets). The only way to incrase memory is to root
[Desire General] mercianary:
You already have a 'void' warranty because you have root, you may aswell go the whole 9 yards and flash a custom rom. just make a nandroid backup of your current rom so you can go back to it if the worst happens.

Having a void warranty never stopped orange from swapping my phone.

I do agree that you shouldn't have to root your phone to make it work, but that's just the way it is :(
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Not entirely correct!

If you ModInstallLocation (which does not require root) you can force most apps to move to SD with FROYO A2SD - as far as I'm aware the exceptions to this have explicity disallowed this.

The main difference between FROYO A2SD and A2SD+ is that A2SD+ relocates the Dalvik cache to SD. Both methods leave /data/data on the device which in the case of some apps (e.g. Google Earth) can be quite substantial.

Personally I use FROYO A2SD, but I've repartitioned to reclaim space from /system and I use Fusecompress to compression the Dalvik cache.

To the OP, you can argue that this is an Android OS issue, but in my opinion this was always an issue with poorly specified hardware rather than the Oscar itself.

My Galaxy Tab has 2GB set aside for applications and the Desire Z/HD have 1.5GB, which rather renders any form of A2SD obsolete.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] tolis626:
Well,if you manage to break your phone somehow make sure you break it badly enough for rendering them unable to detect if you have it rooted! ;) :p
[Desire General] Sverigevader:
But you can remove the root right?

Because my Desire started up with the "rebootloop by itself" issue a month ago while I had LeeDroid 2.2x running, and so I removed root by installing a RUU and then sent it away for service like yesterday.

And then they can't void the warranty then right? RIGHT??? :S
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Yes but the point is that Orange (the OPs operator) don't have an RUU so you can't do that
[Desire General] Sverigevader:
Oh, didn't think about that at all.

Hmm, well then he does have some valid complaints. My biggest problem with the unrooted Desire is the internal memory, and I certainly didn't have any idea how small it was prior to purchase and just took for granted that you could store apps on the SD.
[Desire General] machmandp:
Yep that's a big problem for me

As i said i have root but i thought (right or wrong) that if i ever have a problem there is more chance of the service centre not spotting anything if i still have the stock orange rom.

Also when i looked into flashing roms i'm sure that there was an issue with the Orange radio that caused massive problems and that really put me off from doing that.

I must admit i now have 19mb free and have had to delete some apps today after installing the flash update (Another 10mb) and it seems that updates are slowly eating all of the memory and surely HTC must have known this was going to be a problem.

Still i'll now try to look into maybe flashing a rom with APPS2SD+ and see if it's ok to do. i'll also hope for an Orange RUU to be leaked soon

Thanks all
[Desire General] EddyOS:
This is what I'd do...

Remove all apps from the phone (uninstall them). And then reboot into recovery. Do a backup so you can revert back to it should you need to send it in (they may not realise you're rooted) but then you can go to a custom ROM using A2SD+ and see how you get on
[Desire General] machmandp:
thanks

sounds like my only choice to avoid the low space

just need to double check the Orange radio thing first

Thanks all
[Desire General] EddyOS:
The newer radios should work OK, if not you can use the radio you're on at present assuming you're on Android 2.2 at the moment (albeit the Orange version) - flashing a custom won't touch the radio unless it's included in the ROM file
[Desire General] mercianary:
The radio hasn't been a problem for a while. The newer radios wont lock your device.

My first orange desire was locked by a radio update. I had to fix it with an unlock code.

My second orange desire (warranty replacement) was not locked when I flashed the most recent radio.
[Desire General] machmandp:
Excellent thanks
