yeah its true that the Live wallpaper takes up more cpu usage but not terribly that much. When monitoring it on watchdog it about .7% usage and while the screen is off i believe Froyo just puts the program on the back burner so its ready for use when u turn on the screen but wont take up alot of memory either. I had a G1 and never used the Live wall paper but since upgrading to the G2 i am not afraid to use it and enjoying it without losing any battery! only one that is laggy is the google maps one. Great idea but damn that thing can SUCK up CPU usage and battery! pretty though...

so i've been designing a minimal theme that is going pretty well. and we all know everyone loves minimalism. All the notes widgets have that ugly yellow background. I just need a notes widget where has minimal text like helvetica, myriad or something similar. Where it has no background. and just text. Just inputing text on the homescreen something like that doesnt have to have special functions but that is a plus.

Here is an example of something that i'm looking for

HD2 is runing Ubuntu in native mode (no VNC), can DHD do the same?
[Desire HD General] Wully616:
Do DHD users need to recompile their kernal to enable loop back devices the same as the EVO4G?

I am currently using Official HTC 2.6.32.21-g3d0aaff should it be the same instructions as compiling a kernal with CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y for the EVO4G for the DHD aswell?
[Desire HD General] Teblin:
I have chrooted ubuntu working on my desire hd a recompile of the kernel was not needed like the evo4g.

Can you give us a tutorial please?

[Desire HD General] Jhinta:
1 LOOP = is for short ubuntu in android we want real ubuntu NATIVE

2 DHD kan easy do ubuntu.even beter then hd2 as spec are beter.

3 We only need some kind of boot img with some options enabled like config_vt=y ( i dont know wat's needed more * )

4 CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y is needed to chroot a os in a os

From wat i read online this are the option to enable in .config in your source to build.

CONFIG_INPUT=y

CONFIG_VT=y

CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y

CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y

But as i say i dont know, its only wat i read

Hi,

[Desire HD General] Dwnshft:
Just out of curiousity...the Android OS is linux based...what would be the benefit of running ubuntu on the DHD (or any phone for that matter)?

I am currently running Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop and there IS benefits there, but I just don't see how they would be related to a smartphone application except for the (pardon the reference) "geekiness" of it.

I know leedroid is currently playing with ubuntu on dhd...

He has mentioned this in the leedroid hd v2.0 thread (around page 800...yep its a big thread! lol)
[Desire HD General] Jhinta:
just for some points , not that you need them.

1 download a 10G torrent for me on you phone without crashing.

2 let just forget all the apps you get with ubuntu alone

3 please run some python for me and i do mean full support

4 greasemonkey support

5 this are just some of the things

6 and that all on a smal smartphone instead of a 11inch notebook.

But just for the recored not that you need them , but sure i do.

[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
I just had some problems with getting adb to work. This was my first time using adb.

What was happening was that when I ran "adb devices" it was showing multiple instances of my devices, all of which were offline. I removed and reinstalled the USB drivers - same problem.

After some Googling, what fixed it was using the original HTC USB cable, instead of the third-party one I was using (bought off eBay).

Why would a different USB cable make a difference ? :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z General] harolds:
I've had problems with micro usb male ends not working (or properly connecting) with some female usb's.

Also if you bought a mini to micro adapter, there are some that will only provide power and not data. So that leads me to believe that there might be only power usb cables as well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Duppsko:
I bought a couple of (more like 5-6) third-party usb cables from Hong Kong last year for my HD2.. Paid no more than $1-2 each on eBay I believe..

They charged the phone just fine, but they were no good for syncing.. (Activesync kept disconnecting and reconnecting the phone at random intervalls.. Worked fine in periods, but you really couldn't rely on them). Guess there were bad connectors somewhere, or maybe just overall crappy quality..

Anyway, I trust no other than the original HTC cable for syncing my DZ for that reason..
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
My cable works fine for sync'ing, and I'm not using a mini-to-micro USB adapter. It seems to be only adb that it won't work for. Which seems even more odd to me, I could understand it better if the cable only delivered power and wouldn't sync or do adb. But being able to snyc and not do adb seems weird to me.

I think I'll be investing in an official HTC cable (edit - just ordered one).
[Legend General] loscassapalle:
hi guys,

i have an error when i change the sim card (i have two of them): the phone forget the google account password.

a notification appear when i turn on the phone, also if i don't have any data connection active.

any suggestion?:)
[Legend General] callmewind:
Same happens to me. It's probably a feature; different sim often means different person, so maybe it's a privacy feature.

However, I also found this happening when I spend a long time in places with no coverage like basements. The phone says that the sim is changed when is not and I have to enter the password again.
[Legend General] Rapier:
This happens every time when switching SIMs. I have a dual SIM and it's happening too when switching between the 2 numbers on it. I think it's happening also when switching back and forth from airplane mode. This is by construction on all ROMs I've tested and is working like this when GSM radio is turned off and back on

Later edit: I've tested now, when switching to airplane mode is not doing so. Only when switching SIMs/numbers
[Legend General] loscassapalle:
you know if there is a way to remove this protection or to let him remember the password?
[Legend General] Rapier:
None as far as I know. As callmewind stated, could be a security feature coded in the google.android subsystem.

you can disable it with autostarts:

at "account changed" you have to disable "google service framework"
[Legend General] nekikekec:
hi, thanks for info.

i am not sure what you mean. i DL Autostart app but there you have to manually write what to do... so no go.

after i tried Autorun Manager app, found "google service framework", but no option to disable it when "account changed".

any hints what to do?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticiano:
Guys, I know this is an annoying question and you'll probably send me to search the threads... sorry for this.

The situation here is that XDA has a so huge content and so many solutions for the Galaxy S i9000 that I just can't choose the best firmware, kernel and lagfix combination for me.

I'm messing around with a lot of this combinations and I've passed thru some tense situations with "semi-bricks"... my heart can't take it any more... :D

Now I have my phone with an untouched XXJPO Froyo and I just would like to know a nice and secure way to go. I'm done for now with this adrenaline picks. :D

I'd really appreciate any help here!

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamianGto:
Well don't do nothing. Its safest :-P

If you want more speed then you can choose from many things.

I would go for Z4mod.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticiano:
Thanks a lot Demian. This is exactly what I was thinking. The only thing that I don't like keeping the original kernel is that I just dont hava clockwork recovery.

I think that playing with the Galaxy S is a little bit risky because when we flash this ROMs we are flashing the bootloader together... I whent into panic a couple of times with semi-bricks and now I just want to be more carefull.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamianGto:
No you don't ever flash the bootloader. If you 3-button combination works then you can't brick this phone.

Learn to use odin. Its simple. Then you can do whatever you want.

If you flash my kernel with odin.

Just choose the kernel like pda. Do nothing else in odin. Then flash it.

The phone will restart and you got a custom kernel with CWM.

Then you can root it if you like.

If you root you can also change the filesystem.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticiano:
This is really nice, Damian. If i use your kernel I can use z4mod just to convert the filesystem without needing to patch the kernel. Am I right?

I read about your kernel and about z4mod ladfix and I'll probably stick with this combination till Samsung comes out with some thing intelligent. I just cant understand... If this system is based in Linux and Linux systems works better with EXT filesystems, why Samsung is trying this RFS thing?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamianGto:
Right. The kernel is already patched and its just to flash it.

I use it and i think its good:-P

This is the 2.2 Froyo release of the 3D Gallery with the new "peak" feature, allowing you to peak into a folder/collection of images without opening it.

Process for installing:

1. Using Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (or your preferred app), move the Gallery3D.apk (or Gallery3Dm.apk) from the /system/app folder to a backup folder.

2. Delete (if you didn't move and instead copied) the old Gallery3d.apk from the /system/app folder

3. Copy and paste this new Gallery3D to the /system/app folder and rename it to Gallery3d.apk

4. You should be able to open it up from your Launcher - otherwise you'll need to tap on the Gallery3d.apk that you copied into the /system/app folder and choose to install.

Attached are 2 pics of the new Gallery, and here is a video displaying how it works

Do u still have yr Diamond?Is it now working or left for dead?

I'ts happened to mine several times with water and sweat but after drying with back cover / battery removed it always came back to norm-see my posts in aforementioned thread-.Imo you shouldn't have disassembled it in the first place.If nothing's broken so far, try putting everything together (remeber, connectors are tricky to click together;u may add a piece of paper under big one) and chances are it could work fine.

open and remove all cover phone + lcd screen then wash motherboatd with paint thinner and then dry with hair dryer, for lcd screen enough you dry with a hair dryer as well as the batteries (should replace a new battery) after its all dry you just got to raft back device and try to turn it on !!! after the device is lit, you could try a hard reset ....... if the hard reset successfully , make sure the device you go to boot loader and reflash with an official ROM for your device .....:D:D try and good luck

the X10 when reachs 100% it start a cycle to discharge and charge from 90% to 100% and backward, this is done to keep the battery moving on, this type of battery if you keep it to 100% it will short their usable lifetime

2.- Can you overclock the stock & rooted rom ?

2.1- (If so) What's the min & max overclock settings on the stock&rooted rom with SetCPU (is it the same as custom roms?)?

3.- Will you lose data,installed apps when you root your wildfire ?

What I want is a normal HTC Wildfire with Stock ROM (at least for now) that is Overclocked for better, faster performance.

[Galaxy Tab General] nick325i:
I'm just curious to get some opinions on why most of you bought the Galaxy S Tab now instead of waiting for better hardware, Honeycomb or any of the other fated reasons to wait?

Also if you choose to speak up as to why, can you also include whether or not you got it with a contract?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] dravisher:
Okay here's my answer :). I know of nothing coming down the line that is worth waiting for...

The Tab seems to play videos fine, so I have no need of a faster CPU.

The screen is nice, and since AMOLED has failed (thus far atleast) to live up to the power consumption hype, and since I'm not a fan of unnatural "glowing" colors that's not a feature I'm particularly interested in either.

New versions of Android are coming out all the time, so that's never a good reason to wait (would be waiting forever in that case). Also Samsung has said Gingerbread is coming for the Tab. What makes honeycomb more wait-worthy than whatever comes after honeycomb again? I don't miss any tablet-features on the Tab, and the reviews that keep mentioning that Froyo is not tablet-optimized strangely never really mention in what way that is the case. It seems to fit perfectly on a 7" tablet as far as I can tell.

Battery life is very good, obviously pretty much completely dominated by the screen, and I see no reason to believe that's going to improve by a huge margin in the near future.

7" is the perfect size (since it fits in my pocket both in pants and jacket). The Tab is my only phone and does that job very well for my needs. Again can't think of anything coming down the line that's particularly revolutionary here either. The Tab is the perfect form-factor for me.

So I would actually rather be inclined to ask the opposite question. What is coming soon that should have made me wait?

Edit: And yes I got it with a 1-year contract (in Norway). About the same total price as at retail (~$950), except the contract includes 100 MB data per month for free.
