[Desire HD General] yahya.hamid:
I had this problem in HD2 as well but sorted it out. How do you put a default weather location on the main screen.

I do not want weather to show "My location" . I just want to see my home towns weather irrespective of where I am.

Any help?
[Desire HD General] fvs:
Tap and hold the home screen widget, untill its draggable. Then drag it to the lower left "edit" button and type in a city :)
[Desire HD General] yahya.hamid:
WOW

That was so cool

You made my day. Thanks
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
edit on mine does nothing it doesn't get highlighted as a option when i press and hold the widget?
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
bump is anyoneelses edit feature not working
[Desire HD General] pavoni:
It works for me. I wanted the opposite to yahya.hamid, I wanted to show 'current location' rather than the name of the town. As the man said, press and hold, then drag down to the bottom left hand corner, which turns into 'edit' and up pops the choice of cities or you can type one in. Thanks fcjversc, made my day also.
[Desire HD General] Restorer:
My problem is the number of cities in the database is very limited. Is there a way to get more cities?
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
Is anyone else having the edit issue I have ,if I hold on the widget and drag it to Tue bottom left corner the edit option is not delectable only the remove option is available
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
Are you using the widget with the flipping clock and weather? If so mine does it.
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
Got it sorted brutally that gives you is cities in the weather database. Mine is not in there,on win mob the was a app that allowed you to add any place as long ad you had the accurately view weather code

[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
Anyone here seeing some data issues on the D2 running Fission? I am in a major city, and it seem like I am kind of having some data issues since I starting running Fusion, specially when browsing the web. The internet seems to lag a bit, and connection seems a bit slow(good bit slower than normal). I got a message few times relating to the data connection. I want to say this could be a network issue, but my sister with a Droid Inc, says here data is fine? Any ideas?
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
Called VZW today up asking if there was an issue on their end, and they said no. Tech then told me to take out the battery for 10-15 seconds and they try the internet when back on. Tech said it could be due to the phone not properly switching from one tower to another. It did work, but about 2 hours latter I was having the same connection issue where pages would no open up, and data was a bit on the slow side. Did the same method again, and that worked. I didn't have this issue on the stock D2 rom, or with my Eris(well that always dropped 3G reception, this is full bars with connection problem). Could this be due to me being on Fission 2.2.2, or is it whole different matter not due to being in Fission? Thanks
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
Im running 2.2.2 and im not having that issue. My girl has a D1 and she gets the same crappy service i get :) i really dont think its the rom. And i dont think there is enough of a difference between 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 to have one get different reception than the other

Shot from my level 60 crossbow of awesomness!
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
Maybe it just my phone then? I guess will see what I can do.
[Droid 2 General] Mackattack:
Have your tried a root reset with a reinstall?
[Droid 2 General] volcanomike:
I have been having this problem, Data will just stop working all together. Text messages won't get sent or delivered. The 3G icon just shows uploading and not downloading or stops showing anything at all. I can't fix it unless I turn on Airplane Mode then back off or reboot the phone. Right now I'm running Fission 2.1 but I ran into Data issues with the default R2D2 rom.
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
So the issue your having is not related to a fission rom...
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
So, I may have solved the issue. I started clean again; cleared all data and status and stuff, then reinstalled 2.2.2, and then hard rested. Only thing I did different was not install the black status bar and all seems fine, and data seems normal.
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
I hate to say this man, but from my experience, the more "stuff" you throw on top of a rom, the more bugs your gonna encounter. And youll never have the same bug twice...
[Droid 2 General] Mackattack:
Why is that?
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
Why is what?
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
The issue may have arisen again, but I was on the market, so it not clear if that was the market issue many people are facing or it was a data issue.
[Droid 2 General] Mackattack:
More stuff you put in the more bugs you encounter.
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
Im not a dev or anything, but here is an example. I was having problems with a rom i was running last night, reboots and such. The very first thing the dev who made the rom asked me was if i was running a theme. Now, im not saying you shouldnt use custom themes or addons with these roms, but every device is different and will react different. And when your flashing 3-4 different themes over a rom trying to find one you like, or flashing addons then trying to undo them your gonna create some issues. Of course, and i remind you again that im not a dev, this is completely based on my experience, and opinion :)
[Droid 2 General] Mackattack:
I guess with themes that can make sense. I wonder what team defused has to say about this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Biges:
Hi!

Currently I have ROMeOS.v4.21 WWE installed (ROM date 8/8/8). I'm curious whether there has been any significant on-driver-level development in the Kaiser ROMs, so if I can make my old Kaiser faster with another newer ROM. You know, make it more responsive, both touchscreen and the keyboard (I had applied various tweaks with only limited success).

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Go try a newer rom and find out.

cant find a sat nav program like tom tom anywhere. i`d rather use my data connection for surfing the internet and not using the voiceless bing maps. does this mean i should keep hold of my touch tiamond 2 and its tom tom?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
don't think there is anything out there yet.

Have you contacted tomtom and asked when they are going to release a wp7 version?

I can live with telenav (tmous) until bing nav is released in the first update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mr mystery:
Although Bing Nav will use data as well just like Google Maps nav does.

[Windows Phone 7 General] amb9800:
I'd imagine the 225 MB max package size for the WP7 marketplace might be a problem for offline navigation apps (unless the app downloads the maps separately).
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
you may want to petition the dev of Maverick (android) to make a pay-for app.

it's a very good OFFLINE gps app, which caches maps directly from (alphebetical order, not quality ;)) bing, google, mapnik, osma, others. the really nice feature is you can build your own maps from downloaded tiles, then dump them to the sdcard and have maverick use -those- tiles for your offline viewing.

caveats:

not a turn by turn app.

not a 'navigation' app.

wp7 is stupid about usb storage, so transfering files >2Gb will be a pita.

wp7 has no pre-installed navigation, so people are -not- buying the phone with this premise (no user base)

plusses:

caching (if you ever figure out the stupid sdcard issues)

it's already mature on android

the dev is stable

cheap

if / when a non-M$ application comes out, hopefully it won't be from tomtom or garmin. if you've used those in the past, you know just how bad they are on mobiles, without data. the best i've used is Google Navigation, as it caches the route once it's selected, and then all you need is a GPS signal, no data required. THIS, is a feature all phone apps should have that deal with mapping. Are you listening microsoft ? TOMTOM ? Garmin ?

Also, if/when an app is released, subscription based application is an instant FAIL. $49 apps are a FAIL. pay-for-each-region-of-maps are a FAIL. Hopefully the app makers are paying attention this time, for the wp7 users' sake.

:)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Aaron McCarthy:
I've used Tomtom and Navigon for years on my cell... I love them. Granted the development hasn't as great as a stand a lone unit but for having the convenience of only having to carry around ONE unit and not having a separate unit in the car for this I think they're pretty good. I use tomtom EVERY day for work going to do estimates etc.

So, subscription based is out, 50 dollar apps are out, pay per map is out.... how are these companies supposed to make money? It's one thing for google or MS to develop a free gps app for their OWN os, its another for tomtom or something to do it and just give it away for free. I cant see why they would do that. Not a very good buisness model is it :P

I have no doubt when they update Bing to have full on 3d Navigation like google nav on android that's what I'll be using as my main gps.

thanks people.

crypto errors - samsung server

I've tried to update about 50 times over the last week. It finally worked.

It's Samsung server probems. When you start downloading via Kies, the download breaks but it does not stop the installation programme. When it tries to decompress and decrypt the damaged files you get the CryptoError.

Finally it worked for me today. There is only one solution to this at the moment - keep updating till you drop dead or manage to do it.

Kies is a joke!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinay14:
updated finally

Updated finally to froyo. I think it was something wrong with the samsung server. In a day I used to try least 5 times. Phew! I think you guys must try it. Maybe they fixed it now. The update is really good. There are some UI changes but minor. Best of luck.

@imad604 Many users are not able to use hotspot in UAE. Try updating to froyo now i think it's fixed.
[Desire HD General] Muffyone:
Hi all,

I was doing some test with a friend of mine that have a galaxy s with ext4 lag fix.

We have noticed that in quadrant there is a huge different in time during the passages "writing database" and "reading database".

So is the desire hd filesisten not well optimized (not like the original galaxy s one :P) and is there a way to speed up read/write operations?

Thank u all
[Desire HD General] nandihno:
by default the galaxy S out of the box uses RFS which when doing IO to DB can be very very slow....because it does a lot of journalling.

I believe ext4 does not do journalling?? correct me if i am wrong...

if your friend uses the OCLF then ...believe me over a period of 1 week..or after your friend has put more than 10 apps...it will start to degrade...

RFS in the GS corrupts the FS over time...

I have had my DHD for like 2 weeks and installed over 50 apps..

quadrant scores are always...close to 2000..

using Froyo on the GS without any lag fix u get approx 1000 quadrant score..

with lag fix you get close to 2000..but then again is temporary..

if your friend had applied the voodoo lag fix..then i thing that uses a different journalling policy.and on Froyo GS gets approx around the 1500...

so DHD is indeed optimize IMO
[Desire HD General] nickwarn:
I came from the galaxy s. Wich i loved, after much work and tweaking. Straight out of the box it was useless. But back to topic. Of course it would be possible but i dont really see the need. Itryed all the diffrent lagfixes for SGS, OCLF wich uses EXT2, Voodoo EXT4, and Ztupys kernel with ddiferent options and on Android 2.1 they aall really boosted the Quadrant scores was getting 2200+. But on Android 2.2 it didnt have same effect quadrant about 1500-1700 still good fix. But when i run Quadrant on DHD, in I/O section it stops a little while r/w data but it did that with lagfix on SGS also. Only lagfix that made it run thru with out pauseing was OCLF wich uses EXT2, and Ext2 gets corrupted or something after a while and performance slows down.

I think we have a good stable device and i dont see the need.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
I am afraid not, ext4 is basically ext3 with journalling c.f Wikipedia
[Desire HD General] Muffyone:
thank u all for replies. Mine was just curiosity more than need because DHD in every day use is really fast and responsive (not like my old iphone 3g....)

I think i has applied the OCLF so it will be degraded in some times, and he said also that he reboot the phone once a day..

Sorry to mod if i posted in the wrong section

[Galaxy Tab General] toxicstone:
As it was possible for the nexus one, im wondering if it maybe will be possible for the tab when you are enable to flash it?

And one question to is, is the video recording any good? and is there any software to make the resolution higher when you watch it? i one if you convert the quality wont be beter but if will be the same but on bigger screens?

regards
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
The Nexus had a 5mp where as this has 3mp. I wouldnt exactly say the Nexus had HD recording, IMHO, the image was just a bit sharper and more of a makeshift HD.

Would it even be possible to record HD with 3mp?
[Galaxy Tab General] D4rk4n63l:
it should be.. 1920x1080 is just over 2mp
[Galaxy Tab General] mosone23:
Im sure record and playback will get much better once we have a good custom kernel to flash.
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
For recording the sensor needs to be able to push whatever you're recording at a decent number of frames/sec though and if the hardware doesn't cope with it, then you don't really get a much better image than you would than simply resizing the existing video to the same size. It's mostly a waste of time on the N1 as the quality is quite poor regardless of the resolution, I suspect it'd be even more so on the Tab.

Sometimes you just need better quality optics and/or sensors, software can't always substitute the hardware.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Ryanmo5:
This is a port of one of the best theme ever made for android devices called NexTheme by manup456, all credit goes to him! I wanted to run this theme on fastludeh22's OTA de-odex'd stock rom found HERE which is what I'm running. This is a full rom flash as there isn't a template for this rom out yet. A wipe shouldn't be required if coming from the same rom, for all others I recommend a full wipe and as usual if something goes wrong I didn't force you to flash it. :p

Download rom/theme

Download kernel from link above

Put both on sdcard

Boot into recovery

Do a backup

Flash Rom/Theme

Flash Kernel

Reboot and enjoy!

IF YOU AREN'T RUNNING OTA DE-ODEX'D VERSION DO NOT FLASH!!!!!!

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] sino8r:
Yeah, native tethering seems to disappear on every OTA stock theme I have used or made. not sure why or how it happens. I haven't figured it out but the problem is in the services.jar. Just download wifi tether and wired tether which work perfectly until a fix is found...
