Stock standard out of the box, no rooting or modifying. It happened again today, bars all disappeared and the dreaded x came up, switched off then on again and viola, back to full bars. Guess I've gotta return my handset :-(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dash4g:
Glad to hear, and thanks for responding, now I just need to hunt down my stock accessories to return it to BestBuy (DOH!)

Might be defective phone.

I have a stock bell desire Z unlocked with a code.

Only time I get the limited service message is in the subway. On my old phone I get a "No service".

I'm using a pink/purple wallpaper and I want to change the notification number on the Messages and Mail apps from green to pink. The number that shows up on the icon to tell you how many unread messages/emails you have. Is there an easy way to do this without changing the entire theme?

I just downloaded a new camera app, how do I make it open when I press the camera button?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esincho:
What camera app?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damrong18:
Vignette. I'm trying to figure out a way to make it open when I press the camera button. Any ideas?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaww:
Ditto for camera 360.

Much better then stock app. It is set as default, but does not really function as the default - and not just the from the button.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netter123:
Any new info on making another camera app function as the default including the ability to use the dedicated camera button?

If this is not currently possible, would the ability to add this functionality come from an update by the camera app people, or would this be something the devs might work on adding?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverSurfR:
I don't know about changing the default app for the camera button, but it's definitely possible to map the button to shutter from within an app. Retro camera has an option to select a hardware key for shutter, I have it working with the camera button.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defjus:
Sorry to rehash an old thread, but I have the exact same question as the OP and was hoping that someone had found a solution in the last few months.

Can't find this app - looks like it was removed...? Can anyone point me to the app, or suggest an alternative for getting the side cam button to point to a non-stock camera app?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netter123:
Bump...I still haven't been able to find the button shortcut app anywhere. Could someone who has it post the apk? Or is there another way to remap the camera button now?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blazin'j83:
To me, that sounds like the current rom doesn't have that option. When I had the MIUI rom, I was able to change the default camera to camera360.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 265ada:
Here you go! Everyone

I saw no one found a solution I did after reading all of your post did find it via Google in less than 20 secs.... I had the same problem on my EVO 3D running MIUI enjoy everyone here it is.

if the uploaded site goes down and you can't find the APK shoot me a pm ill re upload it

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
............. why are you bringing up such an old thread again??
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 265ada:
I don't see your reply anything of helpful?

because this thread was brought up while I was doing a Google search for changing my camera button default(application shortcut) and it so happens if it wasn't for this thread I may have not known about button shortcut.apk as someone here mentioned then several people here claimed they could not locate. so if someone else google searched the same issue at least they come to a solution. and not just a bunch of people claiming they don't know what to do. who cares if its old you bumped the thread with such a useless post? what's the point in that.
[Trophy General] blownart:
Can you please tell me any navigation app with downloadable maps, so it doesnt depend on my internet connection.
[Trophy General] The Gate Keeper:
at present there aren't any, but a few companies are working on bringing them to windows phone. give it a bit of time, the app market place only opened up a couple of weeks ago (a couple of days ago for US).
[Trophy General] sergioalvarezmac:
Does not have WP7 turn-by-turn navigation within Bing Maps?, or this function is not implemented yet..

Excuse my ignorance, I'm new to the WP7 and I'm not going to have in my hands the HTC Trophy until the next week!
[Trophy General] The Gate Keeper:
it has directions, yes. but not live turn by turn. i can view the directions from my current position to the address i want to get to and it provides directions. it doesn't however work as a live turn by turn navigator at present, but given how far they are already with this, i imagine they will have it in this update coming or the next.
[Trophy General] sergioalvarezmac:
I hope they do that in the next update. At this moment I have a Nexus One and the

turn by turn navigation included in Google Maps is awesome. With an unlimited data

plan is the best option, cause it is always up to date without downloading maps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M5devil:
Do you guys notice that when Bluetooth is on in the car GPS turn by turn voice is gone? I am not sure if it's just me or not, but in my VW Jetta, when Bluetooth is connected, GPS will not speak at all... as soon as I turn Bluetooth off, voice comes back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigragu:
I think this was done purposely so the voice isn't talking when you are having a conversation...same as when the music player pauses when a call comes in and resumes when call is done.

(Running Ubuntu 10.10 x64 here.)
[Vibrant Android Development] jmatic:
how do I install this in linux ubuntu... Please give us a HowTo

Thank You
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
1. Download and install the libusb-1.0 v1.0.8 developer package, please refer to http://www.libusb.org/.

2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory you extracted Heimdall to.

3. Type the following:

./configure

make

sudo make install
[Vibrant Android Development] db3:
its in the README.
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
I haven't tested it yet, but presumably the Ubuntu package libusb-1.0-0-dev will satisfy this particular build dependency.

I'm really excited about this! I've been reluctant to run odin in a Windows VM, and having a native solution in Linux is a huge win.
[Vibrant Android Development] oquinones:
Yeah I had to Odin the new Froyo but I'm on a Mac and couldn't use Odin in Virtual Box. So I searched for alternatives and this is what I found. ;) I only wish that it would have a GUI so it would be easier to use but I will take what I can get.
[Vibrant Android Development] rbirg:
Have any of you guys actually tried using this?
[Vibrant Android Development] oquinones:
I used it on my Mac and it worked great. Got the unofficial Froyo from Eugene running on my Vibrant. I had to rename the md5 file downloaded to .tar and extract that and you will get the files needed to flash in Heimdall.

Nice that its done through the command line. If the USB port on our phones can be configured as a USB Host, then it would be possible to flash phone to phone... I believe the G1 can do that.

Hey man, I'm in desperate need. I'm new to all this and on a Mac. I'm happy that I bumped into this thread. I know what I'm doing for the most part but I never messed with ODIN. I recently flashed AOSPish 1.1 and then went back to AOSPish 1.0 I had backed up. My phone works but I can't seem to boot into recovery. I keep getting this error message

"E:Missing Bitmap Indeterminate1

(Code -7) and etc..."

It stays on that screen, I can't do anything. It practically took me an hour to figure out how to get the phone to reboot by pulling the battery with the phone plugged in, then inserting the battery back in after the screen blacks out. My phone is hardware lock so the 3 key method does not work. I rooted using One Click Root for Mac.

Please help....I love this ROM but I want to flash back to 1.1

Can you tell me how to use Heimdall since you flashed Eugenes so I can flash back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] oquinones:
Do you know how to use adb? Try typing "adb reboot recovery" without the quotes and you should be in recovery.

If not, then I'll try and explain it.

Anyways, I never was able to get that working but now my physical keyboard won't work when the phone is running...still works in OR.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] CommanderThor:
Well if you dont have any nandroid backup you will have to flash ROM again. You can try it without deleting data. As you will be flashing 1.4 over 1.4. But do delete tha cache and Dalvik cache just in case.

[HD2 General] rg1854:
For the last couple of months my hd2 has had really bad/low WiFi reception. So today (after countless hours of trying to solve this) I opened up my HD2 following a video on Youtube As it turns out the coaxial cable that runs along the side of the phone was slightly unplugged. It was just resting on top of the connector. So I plugged it in, heard it click and re-assembled my phone. Now Wifi is back to normal and all is good in the world. Just thought I'd share that in case someone was having the same issue.
[HD2 General] Camusa:

I am unable to post links because I'm new here. Search "hd2 disassembly" on YouTube. Select the very first video and at 2min 40sec in that video A cable is disconnected. That end of the cable was the one I reconnected to restore my WiFi.

Sorry it took so long to reply.

[HD2 General] calc:
Couldn't find the video... but saw a couple other ones out of curiosity. I'm assuming you've voided your warranty because all the videos i saw punctured the void sticker to reach the screw.
[HD2 General] Camusa:
I appreciate the clarification.

I was thinking, "What did I do to piss this guy off?!" :)
[HD2 General] tm515:
Yes, I had the same problem. Opened up the unit and seated all the cables properly. Also raised the copper spring connectors a bit so that when the phone back is snapped in place, the antenna and motherboard are properly connected.

HTC HD2 diassembly/assembly video is available at the following site:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teleknEsis:
I just published my first android apps in the Market about 2 days ago, and I've noticed that the data in the Developer Console has been EXTREMELY slow to update.

For instance, I published an app just yesterday afternoon and it still says 0 downloads. However, my server has 100+ registrations from people using the app, so I know at LEAST 100 people have downloaded it.

Is something screwy going on with their servers or is it normally this slow to update data? Thanks in advance to anyone who replies :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clarksonator:
It updates once a day seemingly at different times every day. Also, sometimes the stats are still off and occasionally will get corrected magically.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dryhte:
Hi people.

I have a Samsung Galaxy (with AMOLED but I don't think it's got the Pentile display system) and (since today) an LG P500 Optimus One.

The Galaxy is running a GAOSP nightly (which is based on CyanogenMod), and the P500 is running the default software.

I can't currently make screenshots (if I know how to do this, I'll update this post), but while I'm very happy with the P500's performance next to the anemic, memory starved Galaxy (GAOSP optimizations are good but insufficient to remedy the lack of memory), font rendering on the P500 is not good (it reminds me of linux 5 years ago: there seems to be some anti aliasing going on, but I'm quite sure there's no subpixel smoothing going on.

Since the two displays have the exact same resolution, I'd expect fonts (at least in the UI itself) to be rendered similarly but they obviously aren't.

Can someone enlighten me as to what's needed to encourage Android to enable subpixel smoothing on fonts? Is it in the kernel (and out of my immediate reach), or in a config file somewhere I can edit (if I get root on this nice little phone)?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dryhte:
Nobody?

I've read a bit about fonts in Android, and it seems Android uses Freetype, but I haven't found out how Freetype can be tweaked (config files, copy/paste a compiled file from another device, or really needs to be compiled in from scratch)

Hey guys I'm new to this forum so please dont chew me out. I have a few questions about rooting my evo 4g on 2.2 froyo. I have done some extreme extensive research in the past week, and I have heard that unrEVOked methods are bad and cause alot of problems. Now im fully convinced that one-click methods are trashy because they dont even tell you what their methods are. So can someone in this forum please tell me whats the best updated ROOT method as of today? (thats not using unrevoked, simple root or any one click methods).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DZbadfish:
I'd like to know too!

This is my first dealings with a phone that has more than a camera on it (n00b). I pay for the $30 hot spot with sprint, but have been researching and found that you can do it by rooting your evo.

I backed up all my contacts to the sd card and copyed the sd to my pc. Installed htc sync and have pdanet. Thats it, I havent backed it up or anything.

Just got it so its 2.2, 3.30.651.2. I think I read some where that 3.30.651.2 cant be rooted if it was factory installed. Dont know the date of the thread i saw it on but is that true?

Any help about backing up before root would be great as well. Thanks a million

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyeballer:
IMO, some of the older revisions of unrevoked had some issues and that's what tainted their methods. The latest iteration is stable and I would recommend going with it if you are on 3.29.

3.30 requires the s-off method posted above.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4gfan:
Im running 3.29.651 . So I dont think ill be using the s-off method. Okay I understand now, so unrevoked fixed their crap i guess. So should i go with unrevoked 3.21 ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyeballer:
Yeah, I've rooted 1 evo with the downgrade method and 3 with unrevoked. Unrevoked is faster and results are the same. Just follow the instructions carefully.

The only change I would make is download the amon ra 1.8.0 recovery .img (not the .zip) and in unrevoked before you start the flash, go to options and choose custom recovery and load the amon img. This way you'll be rooted with amon recovery not clockwork and you're all set.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4gfan:
the downgrade method was the one posted by dan wager (regaw_leinad) in late august right? So the link you posted is the latest one ?

Wait so, how do i get amon RA on my phone? am i supposed to get it after I root or during the root process? What about the nandroid backup? Can you tell me how to do that after i root? I know im supposed to download and flash the 2.2 rooted ROM and do a nandroid back up i think. I need a walk through =[
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyeballer:
Yep that's the one. The link I posted is the guide for 3.29 unrevoked. Get the amon recovery here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026.

You load that .img file into the unrevoked app before you connect your phone, there's an option for custom recovery. Once unrevoked is finished. You can boot into recovery and make your first nandroid. After that, time to play :)
