498 Euros for the one I want. That's sounds great until I convert it to USD. Then it makes me cry.

I wonder how it works when a new version of android comes out? Do you get upgrades?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
That could be an awesome phone series if there's good development and updates for it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agentaaron:
This would be a cool idea...only issue that I could see is that you would probably never be able to get root access on it...I couldnt see too many serious devs buying this device
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] apallohadas:
It sounds like vaporware so far. No word since last month and their webpage rarely works.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitekredneck:
I think I saw somewhere that the device is fully rooted when it ships. I Googled it for more info earlier today and think I saw it in one of the writeups I found about it. Links are listed at bottom of this post for more information on this device.

With all of the available options that I wanted it was gonna cost me roughly 500 US dollars.

BTW .... they are based in Germany, so I look for this to be an excellent device when they start production. They are taking pre-orders now to get a feel for the market I would assume.

If this is true then this would be great the future of mobile phones.:D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vtruth08@yahoo.com:
yes indeed, a little to good to be true, i wonder why htc didnt think of something like this, to be able to make a custom phone to ur liking is serious business, all u need is to design a kernel that support all the hardware ur planing to sale. GOLD MINE!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] karendar:
I'll sure as hell buy one! Looks like an amazing deal... 1 Gb RAM, 16 Gb internal, Wifi, 4G for future support, etc. Gotta love it!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitekredneck:
HTC would never consider selling custom devices per order. Just think of the money they would lose if they quit selling to the masses, and by masses I am speaking of AT&T, T-Mo, Verizon, Sprint, etc. They are in the market for the BIG picture and that is all about quarterly earnings and stock prices, not making a BIG buck on custom devices that are tailor made for individuals like you and I.

I think that this new company could do very well building these custom devices. Once word gets out, all of the uppity ups will want one and it will carry them a long way in their success if that happens. You know how those uppity ups are, they aren't gonna drive a Toyota if they can get their hands on a Ferrari. It's a status thing and they will be a big part of the market for these devices IMO.

I hope they do well in their endeavor. All they have to do is make a name for themselves with a reliable and well built device. This one could truly be an iPhone killer if they play their cards right. It's already got any and every feature available that I can see, except for a kickstand. LOL

I really like the fact that you can have up to 32gb internal storage and then 32gb microSD ... 64gb total! This could completely replace my mp3 player with all that storage.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] danielefeldt:
It is obviously a fake website. They cant even spell technology.

Htc would never do this because having a phone not rooted when it hits the user is a good thing for them since it allows them to control what is on the phone and what is not. Thus allowing them to add more features on the next phone update to draw in more people for the same exact phone...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
They spell it technologie because its a German company. Looking at thier site, actually they look to be legit.

Eventually HTC, Samsung, and the other big manufacturers will have to do something like this. If they dont, companies like this one will keep springing up and taking larger and larger share of the market.

Think about it, if you had to spend $350 for 'almost' the phone you want, or could spend $500 for exactly the phone you want, you'd spend the extra $ because for most, a smartphone is a long term investment.

Even if this were a fake site, theres more to come because theres a market for it.

Even if youre not actually getting a better phone, theres plenty of materialistic douchebags thatll buy one just for the prestige of having a unique phone, to fuel a market for this

Read this thread to see the status of Bells official version of Froyo

and then if you don't want to wait and upgrade by a different method first check the thread that's stickied about internal SD issues on i9000M

then if you still want to upgrade search out the Kies Patcher program or one of the many other threads that describes how to upgrade. You've got to spend some time learning or you could easily end up with a brick.

[General Questions and Answers] lstat:
So, I have a few iPhones im trying to get rid of because I want to get back into the android scene. I miss my Euro Hero :( One of the greatest phones ever, anyway, I decided to come to XDA to try and sell them on the market like I used to, the problem is, I cant seem to find that forum anywhere!! What happened? Did XDA dump it? This was my number one place to sell devices in the past..

Downloading a ROM as we speak :p Ill have it within an hour (My old one, actually). Soon Ill be rocking a legend, maybe.
[Legend General] cdfs:
I'm using CM, at the moment rc1, and am quite happy with it. There are only a very few things I'm missing from the official HTC-release. So I tried the vodafone-FroYo. Most things worked ok, but streaming AAC-internet-radio at low bandwith sounds terrible. I'm listening to the following stream via "A Online Radio": http://listen.di.fm/public2/house.pls

With CM rc1 this stream sounds very ok, even if it is only 40k. Same when I play it on my notebook. When I try to listen to this stream with the new FroYo, it sounds as if it was a 40k mp3-stream. I've tried also XiiaLive to be sure, that it isn't a problem of the app.

For now I restored to cm rc1, but I wonder if this problem can be reproduced on other handsets as well, and if yes, if there could be any solution to this.
[Legend General] cdfs:
*Bump*

160 Views an none could at least say "Yeah, it's the same here" or "Nope. check your handset, non problems here"?
[Legend General] Kwen:
Same here, looks like AAC+ is being decoded as plain AAC-LC, missing the SBR, even at 64kbps you can head the difference
[Legend General] cdfs:
Thanks a lot for testing! So this seems to be really a problem with htc FroYo. Next question would be, if it would be possible to install the missing parts. This should be a job for the chefs in here... Anybody?
[Legend General] cdfs:
Googled now a little more, this is an issue with FroYo in general and is fixed in git since august this year. See:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9308

Fix: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=pl...it;h=16263d9f8cc01392c2f3678b381ce897647c8c81

It seems, that cyanogenmod has implemented this fix already in their source, so thats why I have no problems there.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekingandroid:
I understand that the solution to this question may already exist in the forums, however, I did check high and low for it, and was unable to locate one.

Here goes:

I like (as I'm sure others do) to install apps2sd, something I'm able to do thanks to the actively-rooted and cyanogen-modded N1 that I use.

Unfortunately, the actual *install* files *themselves* from all Market-downloaded apps seem to remain in the phone's internal memory, clogging up preciously limited space. How do I get rid of these install files? I tried using a file manager to go into the mnt/asec directory to get rid of *.pkg's, but these seem to be uninstall-protected (I'm not even sure if I'm making a mistake from the get-go in trying to purge the *.pkg's), so I'm kind of back to the drawing board on this one.

Any help on this would be pretty invaluable folks.

Thanks,

Eli
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
If you've installed a lot, your dalvik cache will grow pretty big. That's found in /data/dalvik-cache.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekingandroid:
Thanks Rusty - but my /data dir is completely empty (unless there are invisible folders; if there are, who you know how I can make them visible?).

Best,

Eli
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
You need SU access to view /data, make sure what you're using to browse it supports that.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekingandroid:
Ahh, thanks Rusty - will do that :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Your DATA folder is inaccessible, unless you use Root Explorer or other file explorer with root privileges (ES Explorer, for example - but it doesn't work with all ROMs).

There are no PKGs. There are APKs. And you're wrong in your assumption that they aren't used. This is no PC, this is Android, forget what you used to know, you need to learn again. APKs are the actual applications being ran, without them you can't execute anything, and using old Apps2SD, AKA Apps2EXT, you can move your /data/data to SD (EXT partition) and /data/dalvik-cache to /cache. CM doesn't support Apps2EXT, but it can be easily installed and used, following the guide in DarkTremor's thread. Read Wiki in my sig, it'll point you in the right direction. You can start by reading FAQ, question 9.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilentMobius:
1) The .apk isn't the install file it _is_ the application. The are no "install only" parts to an android app

2) Anything on /mnt/asec is already on your sdcard using froyo-style a2sd

3) .so files in /data/data/xxx/lib and /data/dalvik-cache are the primary causes of full /data partitions
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T.P.:
After trying Launcher Pro, I decided to stay with the Froyo stock Launcher on my G2. Using Titanium Backup Pro, I inadvertently deleted the stock Launcher instead of Launcher Pro. Titanium Backup Pro does NOT give me an option to restore the stock Launcher. What do I need to do to restore or re-install the stock Launcher?

BTW, I rooted with Visionary r10 and have rec'd OTA update.

Hey guys,

I just compared my battery drainage with a friend and found out, that my display is using 3x more energy on lowest setting than his display on automatic brightness settings. I made a calculator to find out how many minutes the display can be turned on to suck 1% out of the battery and would like to know your results.

Everything you need is to type in your current battery level, the percentage of the different battery-consumers and their hours and minutes of total usage.

Please also post your screen brightness settings and system data.

My scores (minutes per %)

Display: 2,8

Cell standby: 195,7

Hi everyone. I decided to customize my X10 according to the holidays that are coming up so i put a few things together and i think it worked well.I decided to share just in case other people like it and are interested in having a Christmas themed x10 :)

What's included in the attached .rar package is:

Some Icons that i made myself TallMin/Text style but red and white with snowflakes font. Hope you like :)

A drawer button image and dock background for launcher pro.

7 Christmas Wallpapers and 1 Live wallpaper, the apk installs 2 live wallpapers falling snow and snow globe.

5 Ringtones and 2 SMS tones.

TypoClock.apk since i thought it goes nice with the theme.

Also there is an free Christmas sticker pack in the market and a few paid widgets that go very well with the theming as well as Tajm and Battstat so you can check them out. :)

Will be adding more things soon :-)

[G Tablet General] Sparkinman:
Okay..hoping someone can help me with this. I'm running the Zpad .3 rom, and can't get some games to run full screen. It DID work with the CWB2 firmware..but just doesn't with this one. Even tried the Galaxy full screen trick with Spare parts to no avail..anyone have any other suggestions?
[G Tablet General] rothnic:
The same games ran in CMB2, but not zpad? I just assumed that some games supported certain resolutions or scaling, and some didn't.

It seems like all the ones i have tried have at least scaled up poorly to fullscreen with the spare parts trick.
[G Tablet General] Sparkinman:
The one in particular that comes to mind is uno, but it would be nice to run asphalt5 full screen as well. Uno did run fullcsreen with cwb2... just wont scale under zpad. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling spare parts to no avail...any other thoughts?

[G Tablet General] it2steve:
ZPad Zoom?

There is a 'Zoom' Feature in the zPAD ROM... In settings-display-application zoom setting, it will allow you to select which apps it will 'try' to zoom for you.

Hope it works out.

That was what worked in cwb2, but I don't see that option in zpad. 3

Can anyone else confirm, and does it exist in the new rom?

[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Hi all

I am sure this question has already been answered, but I can not find it, either here or at Modaco. There are threads for the European basebands 21>00, but I can not for the life of me find the US equivalent.

Obviously, I want to get the unlocked Dell baseband for the 2.2 ota update, plus the features that ATT are sure to lock out.

Is there a walkthrough for this? Or at least, a link to the official rom?

Thanks :)
[Streak 5 General] ttk153:
I would like this too

I am interested in doing this as well. I am guessing ATT will change the market, and will also not have the hotspot feature.
[Streak 5 General] Spectre51:
Good question...I'm sending back my locked AT&T Streak so I can re-order an unlocked US Streak once they are available in a week or two. If I could just flash it to the unlocked baseband that would fix everything.
[Streak 5 General] BrokenPixel:
Sorry a bit off topic...

dude that seems like a lot of hazzle why not just call ATT and ask for the unlock number?

If its warranty then I said nothing :D
[Streak 5 General] Spectre51:
Because even if I get an unlock code the 2.2 version that will be pushed out to this phone will still have to be the version approved by them. So that will probably mean no tethering built in. I would rather have 2.2 without AT&T's hands all over it.
[Streak 5 General] ttk153:
This can be done.

I have the official dell 2.2 running on my ATT locked phone. Here is how it can be done, but it wasn't easy and I would not recommend it to a novice.

I am not responsible for any damage you do to your phone, do this at your own risk.

I first tried to flash right too the new firmware and a system image from another forum post, that didn't work and messed up my phone, so I used instructions here hxxp://android.modaco.com/content-page/315825/bricked-streak-after-update-to-2-1-and-rooting/page/48/# to get my phone to O2's 1.6, and then upgrade to O2's 2.2. These instructions also have you on the 21 baseband.

I then used instructions and a download from DJ Steve's post here hxxp://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/323484/2-2-out-for-us-bets-streaks/ to flash my firmware and a system img and a boot image, and now my ATT locked streak is at 00 firmware and running the official dell 2.2 froyo build. I don't have to worry about ATT locking my apps, and I also can install apk's that aren't from the android market.
[Streak 5 General] brunswick000:
Hello all. I just ordered my Streak today from Rogers, which I believe is ATT's northern brother so to speak. Why can't we just run Vanilla Android 2.2 on our Streak's?? It was my understanding that once full root was achieved it was a matter of porting the OS to our device. Now, im no dev so im probably talking out of my a$$ here, but its been done on the HTC HD2 which is a freaking Win Mobile phone! So why can't someone, say, port the Nexus One 2.2 rom over to the Streak?? Man this stuff confuses me. Is there an "Android for Dummies" text out there?
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
Yes, I am running the 00 BB and the Official Update. http://android.modaco.com/content/d...how-to-install-official-dell-2-2-upgrade-pkg/
[Streak 5 General] patrick92260:
If I do this to make my at&t streak essentially an unlocked dell unit because of the 00 baseband, will I still automatically get update notifications in the future when they are released for the unlocked models? or if an update for like 2.3 ever comes out will we need to manually find a way to install that update on the phone using like fastboot because the phone has been modified from an at&t model to an unlocked dell one?

Basically I just want to know if the automatic download and install notifications for new software (gingerbread) that may come out later will still work and it would just give us the unlocked dell version of the software instead of the at&t one?
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Thanks Homiss

I'm giving that guide a go now.

Will post back later :)
[Streak 5 General] Spectre51:

thnx

i was going to upgrade too with this package untill i realised that there is a european and an american version. the difference in here lies probably in the radio frequenties used/enabled. with the engineer app one can enable these again so that shouldnt be much of a problem. have no idea what else is different.

edit: seems eu version has few apps more and radiofrequencies are different.
