Hi Folks,

Happy HD7 user here, have had it a few weeks and really love it vs my previous phones.

However i have noticed that at varying periods of time that the sound seems to just stop working ? I noticed this most recently with alarms not going off, id often wake to the phone vibrating but no sound ? It wasnt set to vibrate either. When going to unlock the phone (Company enforced policy) the normal button taps also do not sound.

When making a call while the phone is in this state there is no sound what so ever on either end of the phone..

Soft resetting cures, but has anyone else had the same problem.

Phone is running o2 latest firmware (phone is unlocked and on the Vodafone Ireland Network).
[HD7 General] ace10134:
I've had the sound stop working for music before, but I didn't try making a phone call or have an alarm go off while it wasn't working, so I can't say if all those things were affected. I assume they would be though.

Soft reset does fix it (until it does happen again, seems to be really random)
[HD7 General] andrews240:
I came here looking to see if anyone was having this issue, to determine if it was just my hardware, or if it is software related.

I have noticed that at varying periods of time that the sound seems to just stop working; ie. vibrating but no sound on alarms, and the normal button taps not producing sound when going to unlock the phone.

However, when making a call while the phone is in this state, I can hear the called party fine, but they can not hear me at all.

A soft reboot solves these issues for me as well.

I am hoping that the Jan. update corrects this issue, because I do enjoy the HD7 very much.
[HD7 General] clarkdevlin:
had the same problem, it was caused when i set the alarm and the alarm was setting off but could not wake me, so the alarm was like ringing for hours, then when i woke up, i see in my screen the snooze and dismiss buttons. so i press dismiss.. but the all sounds from phone were gone...(rings, notfications, music).. i had to softreset the phone to get it working again.
[HD7 General] gcmobile:
I think that the problem is that the phone take a deep sleep if you push it off. Perhaps MS reduce the cpu power or clock speed in Standby-Mode to save battery life.

I dont know it shure, but the phone responds same as my old blackstone with installed

nueClockControl which allows you to change the clock speed.

Regards

If you didn't check usb debugging you are lost without recovery.

Edit: what happens if you take out the sim card?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chandann:
Without sim, booting by pressing up+home+Power causes the phone to loop with the Samsung logo.

Starting normally without sim boots into os and if I connect usb, it displays usb in notification bar - how does the debugging notification looks like? I can also see the internal storage...

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I wondered if there were any developers out there up for creating an app for android. What I am on about is a "Sobriety Counter" type app. The iphone has one it's called "Friends of Bill"

It is basically just a counter, you would type in a date and time and it continues counting from that date.

Would be great to get on on my android phone! and I'm sure loads of other people would be interested in this, as I see a lot of people in na/aa meetings who have the iphone one.

Cheers!

Oli
[Android Apps and Games] Captainkrtek:
I might be able to make something after Im done with my next app
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
I was about to put one together, but then I did a search for Android apps and found this: hxxp://listandroidapps.com/2010/09/06/android-apps/lifestyle-android-apps/12-steps-aa-companion-android-app/

Doesn't it do what you need?
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Do you need something THAT specific? There's a Day and Time app that does this sort of thing too..

http://www.appbrain.com/app/daysanddate/com.deskangel.DaysAndDate

You put in a date and can save it and you can see time since/time to.. And it's a great date calculator on the fly, ie: What's the date 50 days from now, etc.
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Hi, thanks for the replies. That AA app looks great, but doesnt have a counter on it, and the Daysanddate too, ive installed it, very useful, but what I am talking about is like a constant running counter. This is a screenshot of the iphone one:

hxxp://a1.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/045/Purple/57/63/f6/mzl.fdnllajk.320x480-75.jpg

Any counter like this would be great, but would be cool if it could say like "This is your clean time: "

Thanks a lot guys!

Oli
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Or does anyone know an app that already does just a basic counter. Set a date/time and it continues counting.
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
First attempt:

It displays a counter and you can reset it.

The sponsor stuff does not work yet, and it's butt-ugly because it's a proof of concept.

Get it from this page (second link): http://nexus.zteo.com/projects/beta/
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Thanks so much man!!

Really like the way you've added the sponsor part into it. That is such a great idea. I would definately use that option.

Need to be able to enter date and time from when first got sober, then the counter continuously counting from then. So when you open the app it will say the amount of sober years/months/weeks/days/hours/mins/secs from the original Date/Time entered. Anyway of making the counter visually carry on counting when it's open too?

The oops button you included would be good too! I wont ever have to use it though :D (fingers crossed!)

Amazing for first attempt man. This really could become something great! I know it will be popular in the recovery community, I know a lot of friends who will use this.
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
I uploaded a new version.

It looks a bit better and the "Call sponsor" feature should work.

Still not happy with the overall look, especially the layout of the buttons. There is no sense of which ones are more important.

Also: the counter, albeit counting ok, actually can display weird stuff. Hrm.
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Cool! Will install it when I get home.

The most important thing is to able to manually enter a time and date, then the counter will continuously count from that time and date. E.g for me I will want to enter 10am 07/07/10, and when the app is open it will display the elapsed time since then.

Is it possible to make the counter carry on counting when the app is open too?

Thanks a lot for this!
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
OK. Listened, added, skinned.

Please re-download it, have a look at the help, let me know.

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Love it!!!!

Looks awesome man! Really really grateful for this!! This is exactly like I was describing! Really this is great though man! Impressed. Now I have the icon on my homescreen it is the quickest way to actually call my sponsor 2 clicks, instead of going to contacts, etc!

Couple of things, I really like the "Token" option, is it possible to select image from gallery as well as take picture?

Also could you put it as "You have been clean and sober for:"

Would it be OK to send the link to this thread to some of my friends online who would be interested in this and could help test it out?
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
I will add the picture gallery at some point, for sure.

And I will change the text too.

Sure, tell your friends about it; it's free and I will soon upload it to the android market.
[Android Apps and Games] Captainkrtek:
I can put it on the market for ya if you want so it can receive updates and such. Also would benefit other users. PM me if you want! :)
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Captainkrtek, thanks for your offer. I already have a market account though so it took me only a few moments to upload it (90% of that spent lamenting Google's new requirement for a 512x512 "icon"!)

For anyone interested, the latest version is now available on the market. Look for "Sobriety counter."
[Android Apps and Games] Luggruff:
This should be on the newsfeed! Awesome app! :D
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Thanks :)

So, here is the QR code for the app:

Widgets

Coming very soon (need to run regression testing and that's it): Widgets.

As discreet -- or not -- as you want them to be. I'm thinking three different widgets:
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Hi, I have found a slight bug, thought I would report it. If you open the App and then exit it just using the back button, then when you open the app again the time hasn't continued counting. It has paused during the time when the app was closed (running in the background). The only way to sort it out at the moment is to use Taskiller, then when you open it again it is working normally. So if you could possibly fix it so that it carries on counting when the app is closed and running in the background.

Widgets sound great, again a great development!

I have shown a few people this app now and spreading the word, a lot of people want it on their phones. My friend has actually decided to upgrade her phone to an android phone simply so she can have this app!! Cleantime is a very important thing to people in recovery, so this app is brilliant! :)
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Good catch.

I just updated the market app. with a fix for this.
[Android Apps and Games] il Duce:
I love your drive to get this done! I am a friend of bill, and nice work everybody here. Just fyi, the 12 step companion app does have a calculator, I've had the app for a long time, you just press menu. You should get it, it includes the book and lots of prayers (well worth the few bucks you pay for it). All the best to you, nice work.

[Android Apps and Games] pdenson:
I have been searching for something like this for a couple weeks. I started coding my own last night.... and now I find this... :)

Looking forward to the widgets!

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Oh, the widgets are there. Just add them to your home screen the way you would any other widgets.

Of course it's even nicer if you use widget locker as you can have them on your lock screen.

They are not extremely good looking, though; if you guys have some suggestions for "sexier" widgets they are welcome.

kletiz: do you know if it was contacts itself or Sobriety Counter that crashed? Make sure you get the application from the market, the one found in this thread is way old now.
[Android Apps and Games] oliphillips:
Hi mate,

A couple of my friends tried to search for it on the market and couldn't find it. It comes up on mine. I guess they have a different version of the market? Any way of making it available to them with a search? Even with the barcode scanner, when it goes to appbrain it says 'no app found'

cheers, Oli
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Typically an application isn't visible in the market when it isn't compatible with your phone.

I believe I've made this little one compatible with all phones, starting with 1.5. This is very weird.

I'll make the APK available elsewhere if this doesn't resolve itself.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Thank you Oli for requesting this, and thank you cyansmoker for getting this done!

One has an X10 mini pro the other has an htc wildfire (rooted and on 2.2). Dont think it is to do with the phones, so yeah very weird! :)
[Android Apps and Games] Astrobotix:
cyansmoker could you make the apk available elsewhere, as oli said I've got a rooted 2.2 wildfire, tried everything to get app. Found with appbrain but when goes off to market says item not found, same with bestapp as well, tried appshare QR but just sends txt with link to market, but still not found. Big thanks for all the work you've put into this, i love its features, would love it better if i could get it on my phone :(

Just keep trying random ones until you find one that works is my advice.

You can always uninstall them.

Just do a search in market for "Wifi" "Wifi Tether" "Tether" ETC

Im having problems on installing wm 6.5 roms on my htc touch dual running on 6.1. Whenever i try to run sspl-1.16-nike.exe it just goes black and the word usb never comes up. Anybody know how to fix this. thanks in adance
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Rataplan:
Ok, let's try to help you, can you tell me what you did exactly, because you need to remove your simcard and sdcard, after that you can run sspl-1.16-nike.exe from your device, not your computer.

If you did all that, turn your device off and press the on/off button and the camera button on the same time if 'm correct it will bring you in a four coloured screen, can you give me the info from that screen.

Hi coolcar65, can you tell me what see in your bootloader, you can come in the bootloader by turning the phone off and press the on/off button and the camera button on the same time.

I also need to know if your device have a simlock.

spl-0.27. cnvrsa

microP-NeonC (led) v4
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Rataplan:
Ok, that's why you can not run the sspl 1.16 because the sspl 1.16 is for the Nike and not the Neon, they look the same but they are completly different from the inside.

You have to read this post that one is for the neon400.

Hi all,

Am a bit annoyed with the notifications on Mail on my phone. I have it up to notify Mon-Fri 08.30 - 21.30 but when it wants to, it notifies me at, say 2.30 in the morning, then other times it doesnt, has anyone else noticed that it is very erratic?

What alternatives do we have, app-wise, that I can use instead of Mail (whic I like apart from the above problem) that I can set a timetable and days to check for mail (POP3).

Also, is there a way to change he notification for new mail (and new SMS for that case).

Thanks.

Another great Ultralinx app review.

[Captivate General] bigcountry:
Ok here is what I have got

Last night I plug the phone into the wall charger with the usb cable and the phone just starts booting, shuting down over and over again so I unplug the USB cable power it off then plug back in a it goes into download mode and says Downloading do not turn off target with a progress bar then it just shut down right in the middle of everything.

Now all I can do is get a screen that says AST_STAT =0x1 with about six lines of stuff under simalar to that all orange in color.

Every now and then I can get to the downloading do not turn off target screen but it does nothing and niether of my computers what to recongize it.

Call ATT they said it was the battery I say it isn't and took apart the USB cable and a wire had come loose and was touching another. So I am assuming it just geeked out the phone and some how lost everything even the OS. I went and bought a new USB Cable that is when I got it to do what it is doing now.

Is there anything I can do to get it back up and running or is it a paper weight now.

I was running the unoffical/offical Samsung Captivate 2.2 OS. No costum rom and the phone was not rooted.
[Captivate General] thebolt1973:
Have you tried using Odin and flashing it back to stock?
[Captivate General] bigcountry:
I have tried but I can get passed the downloading screen odin does not reconize the phone.

One time when I plugged it into my laptop if was tring to get some android generic drivers but the cable came unplugged and I can get it to do it again and I am having trouble getting to the download screen.

Could someone please give me a step by step thing I can try because what I have found so far isn't getting the problem fixed.

[G Tablet General] KinkyMunkey:
I woke up this morning to a locked up tablet, when i restarted i was getting FC every couple seconds & when i switched apps

This is how i fixed it, I do not advise other people do the same thing because deleting database files like this is probably a really bad idea, and I had a clockwork mod backup in case something went wrong. so, DO NOT DO THIS :-) that said, here's how I fixed it.

The logs indicated it was dieing in the contacts app when it went to open the database

"create table android_metadata failed"

I found the crashed DB in /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/

You can tell it's crashed if there is a .db-journal file, this means it wasn't closed properly, be VERY VERY VERY careful that you have the correct item (refresh the list a couple time and make sure the .db-journal file is still there, you could have gotten lucky and loaded the directory while it was writing the DB)

Now, rename or move the ENTIRE database folder (so we still have it, but the phone thinks it's gone)

cross your fingers and PRAY, there is a remote chance you just hosed your phone, but it SHOULD recreate the database automatically with default settings and 'fix' your crashes, but of course everything in that DB is now gone!

Not sure which databases this will work on, and which ones will just brick your phone, so be careful, i was lucky and it was just the contacts DB that was crashed, but since everything included the call logs in the contact DB apparently- I couldn't even get into the system settings to do a factory reset.

and as always, BACK IT UP BEFORE YOU F*CK IT UP! :-D

FYI: the sqlLite DBs in android are flaky as hell, i wrote an app that did background updates once a min and it would crash like this ALL the time (even in the emulator), I think it has something to do w/ wakelocks expiring before the SQL cache is written to the disk but i don't understand why that would happen in the emulator.
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
I thought that Titanium backup could be used to do that, delete the Contacts data?

[G Tablet General] Rumbleweed:
Having a contact with no name to use for sync reference will cause this. When you restore your contacts, look for one with data but blank name.

Totally. For some reason I would get this fc when I would sync my contacts. It stopped a few months ago after I realized I had 2 mystery contacts with no names or data and deleted them. Haven't had a problem since.
