[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekoholix:
So, I've seen a few threads asking what to do with an old G1. I, on the other hand, know what I want to do with it, but don't know if it's possible, or how I might go about it.

My G1, currently, sits on charge in my truck, and performs Nav and Media functions, utilizing my new Vibrant's internet connection when it needs.

But, here's what I'd LIKE it to be able to do... I'd like it to be hard-wired or hidden in my vehicle, for the following purposes:

1. GPS Tracking (of course)

2. Act as car alarm, at least permitting remote start and keyless entry, possibly intrusion alert, controlled by our other smartphones / PC's, via bluetooth, WiFi, or both

3. Take video feeds from multiple cameras on vehicle (including internal), and make them available for remote viewing

4. IF I can convince T-Mobile to sell me a Data-ONLY SIM Card, tether with it

5. And, lastly, act as a smart-power controller, powering up my main CarPC, when the engine is running​

This thing's quite capable, if I had to guess... I'd just like to see if anybody else is thinking along lines such as these, or has any ideas on how it might be accomplished?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
1. GPS Tracking (of course) < Use lattitude

2. Act as car alarm, at least permitting remote start and keyless entry, possibly intrusion alert, controlled by our other smartphones / PC's, via bluetooth, WiFi, or both < Not going to happen

3. Take video feeds from multiple cameras on vehicle (including internal), and make them available for remote viewing < Also not going to happen

4. IF I can convince T-Mobile to sell me a Data-ONLY SIM Card, tether with it < you get a data plan for payg SIM?

5. And, lastly, act as a smart-power controller, powering up my main CarPC, when the engine is running < Sounds feasible, but you'd probably have to program that yourself.

Hi,

My wife has a photo app called photogram which is a photo editor. I believe it came from Samsung. This app lets you colorize your photos, make them look antique, build a collage, etc.

What's weird is i can't find it in the Zune or Samsung marketplace to download to my phone, any idea where to get this from??

Thanks!
[Focus General] naplesbill:
I have the same app. It seems to have disappeared from Marketplace a few days ago. I'm not sure what happened.
[Focus General] ganks:
That stinks, it's one of the better photo apps. It was only up for a couple days. Hopefully there is an update in the works.
[Focus General] naplesbill:
I hope you're right. I tried to help a friend load it on his Focus, and that's when I noticed it had disappeared. I do not want to reset my phone until it's back (not that I need to, but if I did)! lol
[Focus General] rruffman:
it might just be removed because of a bug the developer of the app has the option to un-publish it or update it. most likly they un-published it.
[Focus General] naplesbill:
The App is back in the Market. This time it is even listed under Samsung Zone portion of the Market. The HDR functionality is amazing.
[Focus General] athix6:
go to samsung zone in marketplace

it's there in the samsung zone under marketplace...pretty cool little app! 5 stars! I must admid the "Now" application by Samsung is much better after recent update! Uses Accuweather for weather and Yahoo Finance for stocks, but no live tile yet. Oh well I think the live tiles could use too much data if not careful.

can we have adobe flash support on x10 mini i am wanting to have that option
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
You could try this

You could try this:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-flash-10-1-on-android-2-1-eclair-devices/

It seems to install fine on my Mini, but doesn't actually seem to get picked up by the browser (and I've tried an assortment of different browsers from the market)

Other people with X10s seem to have the same problem, yet there's one comment from an X10 owner saying it worked, but didn't say what they did (so might just be trolling)

Worth a try if you don't mind spending the time fiddling with different things!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
Unfortunately it will only work on a 2.2 ROM. I guarantee he/she was trolling.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] The Andropirate:

I have got the unlock code from t-mobile for my vibrant. I loaded T959UVJFD rom with oden. I have formatted internal storage and did a hard reset. I then put my at&t card in and put the code in but it fails. I read you need 2.1 rom and to do factory reset before entering the code but it did not work. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this working on at&t?

Thanx for the help

Hi all,

Today I'vertice for the first time the init process lag,m after updating to the last ota update..

I've bought the phone and kept it with the first software (i had to do 2 updates to it) and the init process was always at 0% until today that I've updated it so it seem that the problem was introduced by the last update.

Hope that HTC is releasing a correction soon

Bye

Ps: I've also noticed that my volume button is not straight, the upper part is almost inside the phone and the bottom is 1mm outside it..someone is experiencing the same problem?
[Desire HD General] Rixsta:
Thought Id heard the last of this..

The /INIT process is android/linux based, it has nothing to do with the latest update, I had the /INIT problem from day one..

With all the feedback in my /INIT thread it is simply not possible that the latest OTA is the cause of this...considering its an android process and has been a problem on other phones too.

The USB Debugging check fixes the problem, I don't understand why you have opened another thread about this when I have a sticky which gives you all the information you need...so much so I had the thread locked..
[Desire HD General] mupet0000:
I notice the same thing with my volume button. It is also the same with the power button if you feel the right side is slightly inside more than the left.
[Desire HD General] Muffyone:
I know what /INIT is and I've read the post about it..what i meant with my post is describe what i've noticed..i've used my phone for one week with no lag and init at 0% (checked many time) Then after the update i noticed the lag and the /INIT was at 100%..

It feels strange..

Also my power is like your..I've ask in the shop and seem that 90% are like that..

Hi.

With the latest updates of Cog or i9000 roms i notice that many of the pages i used to navigate are now displayed on mobile versions. On that version, im not able to see videos or displays all the contents. Im not if this should be posted here, but at least i have the oportunity to ask. Is there any way to modify the default browser to open all or at least most of the pages on desktop mode?

Thank you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
There are quite a few threads on this already.... there are other browsers and ways of modifying the user-agent string on the mobile browser so it appears to be a desktop version.

There is no 100% successful way though.

Copied my response from other thread on this issue to try and avert panic in case it turns out to be false - don't drop your sztupy kernel just yet - sztupy may be doing the correct thing here, he does usually know what he's doing!

EDIT: Okay, OP was updated with better information. Lack of check=no means that the FAT32 check *may* be running on the /system, which would cause corruption.

Probably a good idea to confirm if the filesystem check is actually happening though!

And there should probably only be 1 thread on this issue, this one should be closed!

Guys,

Have a problem running iGO Amigo on my phone, everytime I exit amigo, my microphone it mute. If I receive a call, I can hear the phone ringing, and when I answer, I can hear the other side, but they can´t hear me.

Only solution so far is to reset the phone.

Is there a problem to mute/unmute the microphone on WM 6.1 phones?

Btw, mine is a LG Incite.

Hello

I tried to search the forums, but probably due to my lack of fluency in englishg language was unable to find an answer in 15 minutes.

The thing is, my phone memory is rather full with some pictures and other files that I have saved on it. Is there any decent way of browsing my phone memory when phone is connected to pc, so I can sort and copy files from internal to SD memory?

"tap" coping and pasting is super annoying.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
connect active sync not hard disk mode, then browse my computer, and you should see your phone listed as a device, when you browse into the phone there are two disks, called " \ " and " storage card". the \ is your internal memory.

Back in Eclair, all market apps are stored in their original apk files in system/app, so it's relatively easy to retrieve those apk files.

However, after upgrading to Froyo, the apps are stored in a different format, and in various different locations.

I am not trying to distribute apk files illegally, but if I want to theme an application, I will need to get a copy of the original apk file. (Like the transparent theme for LaunchPro widgets). (Metamorph doesn't work for market apps).

So my question is, how can this be done on a froyo platform?

[EVO 4G General] WhiteiceDMSTech:
I just got my Evo on Saturday and have experienced a problem that I cant seem to fix.

Basically what happens is my home button stops functioning. Instead of taking me back to my default screen, the screen will just flash. So I have to use the back arrow now.

I have launcherpro and beautiful widgets installed, but I dont know if either of these would cause the issue.

Ive had to reboot my phone several times before its fixed, then it will randomly happen again.

Has anyone experienced this? Please help. This is so frustrating and annoying.

Thank you,

Whiteice

EDIT So I unstalled launcher pro plus and beautiful widgets and rebooted and its still happening. Im trying to find out if this is an issue others have experienced or if I have a defective unit that I need to return?

Dude the same thing was happening to me. When u try to press the home button it would jus flicker back and forth between screens or something like that. And the only way I got rid of it buddy was rooting and flashing a new Rom, because the sense Rom has sum sort of bug in it. That's a guaranteed fix.

[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
No, I don't mean clear defaults. I mean flashing to a custom built Rom. That's the only way that problem will stop. I only know this because when I first got my Evo I had the same problem. I thought it was something I was going to have to deal with but I noticed the problem was gone sum time after me rooting my phone. This was not planned, it was just knowledge from experience. Yes there is a one click method for your phone called unrevoked3. You will jus need a few things. To install on ur computer. Check out this link and follow the instructions very carefully. http://www.jonamerica.com/technology/howto-root-the-htc-droid-incredible/ if u seem to get stuck which u probably will, jus let me know and I can TRY to help. It shouldn't be a hard or long process but if u don't have any experience then it might take a little while. And by the way, follow these instructions at ur own will, because I am not responsible for what happens to your phone. If u find something that u don't completely understand, just do what I do, Google It! GOOD LUCK :-)

Hello,

I found out that the only way to geotag photos is to enable "Use wireless networks" option. But with that option, the coordinates location is not very close to reality...

I tried only the option "Use GPS satellites", but no matter what I do, it cannot insert any location on the photos...

Yes, I have GPS "turn on" on the powerconfig, I have the Geo-tag photos option ON, I have GPS fix on other apps in about 4seg, I waited more than 30seg inside the camera app before taking a photo but nothing works... Resuming, I don't have any problem with GPS itself, except in the camera

For example on my hold Touch HD, when in the GPS camera mode, it displayed a blinking icon when trying a GPS fix and a stable icon after the fix.

Here I don't even get any indication that it's trying to get a GPS fix or whatever...

I feel that this is a downgrade... How can HTC let this happen??

Am I doing something wrong??

Does anyone have Geotagging with only the "Use GPS satellites" option ON ???
[Desire HD General] RaindancerAU:
Hi. I too can confirm this issue.

Perhaps we should contact HTC about this?

I'm going to read the manual during my lunch break too on the off chance it might have some useful info ... I doubt it though ....
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
The manual only makes reference to the option on the camera app...

It was nice if people start to report this bug to HTC...

Please guys help HTC to make a better phone!!!
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
On the other day I sent a support ticket to HTC and they were fast replying...

But, as normally, they even didn't understand quite what was I talking about...

Here's the reply:

lolol, gps navigation software?!? lol, nice try...

Replied again with a second explanation, hope this time they will understand, but don't have a lot of faith...
[Desire HD General] RaindancerAU:
Is there any way I can support and confirm an issue of an existing ticket?

As in, can I add my voice somehow to you issue onesolo?
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
You can, http://contactus.europe.htc.com/wFrmMailLogin.aspx

But you have to enter my email...

But I think it's better to you to open a new ticket

The one that I have, I'm speaking with a person (a women for the matter) from HTC Iberia, and clearly she doesn't understand what I'm talking about...

I got the second reply and she came again with the story of GPS softwares, even TomTom she spoke... ROFTL!!!!

I guess I shouldn't select "Portugal" in the country field from HTC email support. Or maybe it was due the serial number of my phone...

I will try to post a message on HTC UK facebook.

And for the rest of the ppl here at DHD forum, I don't understand why so little feedback to this bug... it would be great if more people report this problem...
[Desire HD General] RaindancerAU:
I asked on the Whirlpool forum (Australian technology forums) and very little response too. In fact very few people even bothered to read the issue.

I guess geo tagging photos is not so important to people :(

I will raise a ticket with HTC Australia and see how that goes.
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
Now I got a message from the women from HTC Iberia saying it's a limitation from the system!!! ahaha

I only wish a I had the possibility to test this on another android HTC.

Does anyone knows if on other android HTC phones this happens??
[Desire HD General] XmUrF:
Strange. Now that you mentioned it I too have that problem. However I did manage to get accurate GPS location on photos. Don't remember exactly how but I think that after taking the photo I tried to locate the place on the map and updated the coordinates from there.
[Desire HD General] RaindancerAU:
I have managed to make one of my photos accurately geo tag. I was in a car using Google Navigation at the time, so maybe that is why it was able to capture the correct coordinates.

This weekend I will be seeing two of my friends who also have Android phones (Nexus One and SE Xperia X10 mini) and I also have an HTC Magic. I will attempt to test on all of them provided the weather here in Sydney clears up >.<
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
Ok, I think I also got it...

I first opened GMaps, waited for the gps fix and then took a picture. I finally got Geotag only using the GPS satellites!!!

This is so stupid... and a backwards step...as I said before, I was able to do this only inside the photo app with my old Touch HD (in windows mobile) without opening previous any gps app...
[Desire HD General] ingolfzp:
I received my DHD 2 days ago.

As mentioned earlier in this thread I'm missing the icon shown i camera-mode witch indicates GPS-fix.

I've also tried confirming a GPS-fix with an 3rd party app (GPS Status) before shooting.

Just 1/4 second after exiting camera-mode, I can see the GPS-icon in the Android status bar. This indicates that the GPS is indeed initialized, but the camera-software doesn't fetch any information.

I'm posting a e-mail to HTC Support about this. I've already sent them a query regarding the "/INIT" -issue.
