[Nook Color General] lionclaw:
There's a gallery of NC teardown pics at zdnet. XDA isn't letting me post the link because i'm not verified, so maybe someone else can.

This was inevitable, but I hadn't been able to find it until today. I thought others might be interested as well.
[Nook Color General] devis:
http://www.zdnet.com/photos/nookcolor-teardown/487636 here it is

From the pictures I see a good possibility for a bigger battery, or even adding a second one. Lots of room, it won't be pretty but something could be fashioned to fit.

Looks good.
[Nook Color General] mrintegrity:
Nice to see some more details about the NC coming out, I have yet to find a *detailed* list of the real hardware specs though.. most of the "tech specs" list mention supported ebook formats...

I ordered one of these the other day via a relative in the US and hopefully will be getting it next week some time.

I will miss the haptic feedback though so am wondering if it will be possible to replace the useless mono speaker with a motor from a mobile phone or something..

/mrintegrity
[Nook Color General] devis:
Cool idea. But it'll only work for typing and maybe apps that have clicking sounds. Still, it should work just fine. Of course you'd have to attach it to the inside real tight. Duck tape won't do :)
[Nook Color General] mrintegrity:
Thanks, my mind is kinda running over with ideas actually :)

From the teardown pics the internals seem pretty basic and there is hopefully a good bit of space. I would love to know if there are any available usb / jtag / etc headers available though.

If not I was thinking also about the possibility of modifying the usb connector with a switch and a usb 3g dongle inside, I just don't know if there is a 3g dongle that is not based on mini pcie though.

As for the haptic feedback I guess you can just assign a "sound" to everything that should produce feedback.

What about the accellerometer, is that sufficient to control cars in steering wheel based games?

/mrintegrity
[Nook Color General] norkoastal:
To answer your very last question yes.. I have Asphalt5 running and won my first race.
[Nook Color General] devis:
The usb dongle would have to support android. To my knowledge there isn't one... but physically it is possible to stick it inside. They aren't that big, just look big cause of the plastic casing.

I think realistically, for now a bigger battery should be the first thing attempted, given the OS limitations we'd face with other mods. It would also allow us to run the NC at 800 mhz at all times via setcpu.

Sent from my NookColor
[Nook Color General] mrintegrity:
Well, I haven't even got mine yet. I can see on the tracking page that it's "delivered" but my dad is away for the weekend so it will be monday before he even sends it to me! I am in Sweden so it will probably take another 5 days after that :mad:

[Nook Color General] isolated_epidemic:
What version of Asphalt are you running? Does it stretch correctly or is it stupid and square in the middle?
[Nook Color General] norkoastal:
Hd for the Tab.. You'll need to install spare parts to toggle off compatibility mode to get fullscreen.
[Nook Color General] isolated_epidemic:
Did you download from the Gameloft site? I couldnt get the version from my G2 to get past the license check, and the only other version I've tried is a pirated 3.13 version. I would be glad to pay for it if I knew it would work.

Tried disabling the compatibility mode and the top of the screen is blank and I have to press high to get selections to work.
[Nook Color General] kelsoanim:
EDIT: I figured it out. You have to load a version made for Samsung Galaxy Tab or Galaxy S. I downloaded a version from Gameloft.com with Galaxy Tab selected as my phone and the game displays fine. If you purchase from their website you have to do some trickery. When they text you a download link, just type the link address from your phone in a browser on the Nook Color and the download should start and install the game.

isolated_epidemic - I'm having the same issue as you with Asphalt, as well as some of the other GameLoft games. Does anyone have a solution for this?
[Droid X General] kwasek123:
(i cant pase link to official Youtube acc of motorola cause im new xda user)

Relase date in december is a fake or motorola yt guy is not informed ?

What do you think and can you confirm this information ?

:(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] oFFoy:
they both have the same price and both are pretty similar. i am wondering which phone can run games better? and how does 256k colors impact picture quality? because x8 xperia has 16mil colors.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DaemonAshra:
well, in terms of games, the X8 has a 1200 mAh battery while the LGOO has 1500 mAh's. thats going to give you some more battery time to play games. and as an owner of the LGOO, i can say that games look fine. even if the X8 has more colors, I dont think you'll see much of a difference if the games arent made to take advantage of the higher color range.

another thing is the X8 uses a skinned version of android while the LGOO has a pretty stock version of 2.2 with most of the original features. if you like time scape, then cool, but i personally dont like it at all.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] HaduMoesa:
What drew me to the OO as opposed to the X8 was the amount of RAM: 512MB on the OO vs. 168MB on the X8 and of course Android 2.2 versus 1.6 on the X8.

I've tested phones with higher color screens, but I haven't noticed any real-life difference due to the 256k color limit, neither during gameplay nor during movie/photo viewing.

In the end, they're both budget Android phones so (advanced) gaming simply isn't their forté, but I reckon the OO will do a better job under most circumstances.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] oFFoy:
thx for replies. just found that OO has some bug where cpu load goes up to 100% when you touch the screen, i wonder will it be fixed or the phone is made to work this way :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] allsalvati:
The problem of CPU load when touch the screen happens with another devices to.

My brother have a Motorola Milestone and the same happens running Android 2.1.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sanmikasan:
choose LGOO

had the same dilemma last week

I went with optimus

because :

a.)FROYO vs 1.6 in x8 -(2.1 is the latest I heard from SE but still, check web between the difference of 2.1 and 2.2 it's HUGE.

b.)The built is much better for me, more solid, a bit heavier, but it's bec of the more powerful battery(believe me you'll need battery!!!!)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Mooseolly2:
pocket legend works fine on optimus one
[Optimus One, P500, V General] perryl:
os: android 2.2 vs android 1.6

ram: 512mb vs 168mb

battery: 1500mah vs 1200mah

display: 3.2'' vs 3.0''

OO wins :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] xilw3r:
you cant possibly see any difference between 16m color screen and 256k, theyre just nubers to raise the price :)

the human eye can recognise up to 70k colors as ive heard anyway... so both are above your capabilities ,unless ur some super-eye man :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sovikhaque:
Used X8 for couple of weeks and then got Optimus One and Optimus One is much nicer to use. Its faster and Android 2.2 makes everything smoother to run
[Optimus One, P500, V General] roti86:
OO is better

Of course the OO is better in every range, but I think They're not the same price.

Here in Hungary the OO is almost two times expensive than the X8. It is because service providers haven't sold the OO yet:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
What about buy this phone form another country? eBay for ex? Or you have bad feel about warranty?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
aweome info bro ^^
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Sadly, it's total bull.

I've seen the (awesome) live background Artemia on better screens (with more colors) and it looks definitely better, less banding and less visible dithering (the colors flow into one another more naturally).

I think Artemia is a quite good way to show off why the OO's screen isn't really good.

Still, I'd vote for this phone. I love how it never runs out of memory :) (as opposed to the Samsung Galaxy). Plus, it's cheapish :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
He has right. Differences can be seen on gradients very well.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
gradients, that's what I was looking for. Thanks :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thesmoth:
Does the optimus one really have 512 megs of ram?

Why would those useless at LG only put 256 megs of ram into the LG Optimus T (the t-mobile version of the optimus one, identical, except I guess the ram). I have two LG Optimus T phones on the way from ebay (they work with Wind Mobile in Canada) and i'm that the Optimus one has more ram than it does.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sgtmedeiros:
T has 512 bro
[Optimus One, P500, V General] haihazin:
OO ram is 512, 160 is internal memory only. Check it again!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thesmoth:
Ah ya, gsmarena doesn't have the specs listed, and really no where seems to have the ram specs listed for the Optimus T, only the Optimus one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] musclehead84:
I rooted my wifes hero and I want to put froyo on it for her but I can't seem to find the one I want. Can anyone help me find how to put a STABLE rom with froyo and she wants the htc sense overlay. Just like her phone is now on eclair but froyo. Thanks. Also if going to froyo I assume you can leave a stock kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
wow, this is so totally the wrong place its amazing,

first

1. if she has an epic check the epic forum

2. this would belong under a Q and A section not under development

3. nothing we make in here will work on the epic, the phones are to differnt
[Hero CDMA Android Development] musclehead84:
I fixed it I put the wrong cell name in. It happens I'm glad you could help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Porkrinds:
There is no stable rom for the Hero that is both 2.2 (Froyo) and Sense. There are a few in development by our master chefs here, but they aren't quite what I would call Stable yet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
alright, still in the wrong section but i can give you some insight here

- as far as for froyo with sense there are only 1 or 2 builds at the moment, our devs are working on getting this fully functional but atm not everything is fully functional

as far as for froyo that doesn't have the sense overlay, you have 2 options each with their own person upsides

- cyanogen mod 6- this is a customized version of AOSP android with some custom changes like the ability to put the battery % over the battery indicator, you can change notification colors along with the ability to change LED notifications and even the status bar colors of the phone all without having to load in a theme or anything, you also have the power control toggles in the notification trays, and some other tweaks to performance

- AOSPmod - this is stock android, no extra frills just vanilla android but it does give a good base for themeing

there are versions of the 2.1 released that are a little bit more performance boosting but 2.2 sense just isnt fully ready for our phone yet but with patience it will be
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrCoolHand:
And then you can use launcherpro plus as your launcher which has some sense like widgets. There are also custom widgets available in the market like Pure Widgets, Beautiful Widgets that also have a sense like feel to them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] musclehead84:
Thank you for your help? Sorry about the wrong section. I talked with my wife and she doesn't want to lose sense so I guess I'll have to wait. Is there anything I can do to boost performance but keep the sense overlay?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Yeah, use NFX .7 sprint rom then flash decadence #43 kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Liquid sense removes alot of the sprint bloat and if you download the odex'd version it will feel snappier, also all of the images have been optimized if she wants sense minus the bloat i would go with that one (your sprint apps and such)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=856099

if she wants an optimized as close to stock as possible configuration

this would be your best option

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849024
[Hero CDMA Android Development] musclehead84:
Thanks for all your help. I'll try the top one to remove some bloatware and if she doesn't like it I'll try the second one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] moxlon69:
If you go with the LiquidSense rom, you can manually add in any of the apps that were removed using adb shell, or android commander, and if you use the NFX Stock sprint rom, you can remove the unnecessary apps using android commander or titanium backup (which has free and paid versions in the market).

PM me if you need more info on that.
[Desire General] $hred:
Hi: I would like to know if anybody knows the bluetooth chip maufacturer and type of the HTC Desire. In teardown images I found it's not possible to identify the chip. I know this is a difficult question, but maybe some has already disassembled his device and paid attention to the bluetooth chip inside :)
[Desire General] $hred:
Nobody knows that? Some detailed HTC Desire datasheet would be great.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suddenjr:
Hi

Well, my desire rebooted yesterday because of overheating (as usual).

But this time it got stuck at the white screen with green HTC logo. Rebooted it 30 times but no progress.

I can get into Bootloader (0.93) but when i press RECOVERY, it reboots and the bootup screen is there again. Waited for one hour but nothing happened. It´s like i can´t use the RECOVERY function.

Tried to install the original froyo from Windows. Got to the step when the setupprogram reboots the phone into Bootloader, but then connection between my Desire and my PC is lost. The setup program only recognizes my Desire when i´m in FASTBOOT, as soon as i switch to bootloader the program can´t find the Desire.

Should i have the bootloader drivers installed on my PC or the HTC Sync drivers? or both? none of them?

And what´s wrong with my phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suddenjr:

got it working anyway, tried 3000 different ruu´s and the last of them worked.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lethoncbon:
Hi,

I'm not a big user of music on my Captivate, but last day I tried to play some mp3s and had a bad surprise.

First song always plays normally but the player freeze everytime I press next.

I tried with different players (stock player, 3, Player Pro) and it has always the same behaviour.

I'm running Axura 1.01 with recommended lagfix option.

The only thing I modified I could think of, that could have a link with the music, would be unistalling DRM service (to solve battery drain issue).

I didn't freeze this service (uninstalled if for real :) ) so I can't really check if it's the source of the problem.

Any idea/help is welcome :)

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjay711:
I had problems playing music for awhile it turned out to be my external memory card going bad it would still work in my old phone but for some reason it would start skipping and freezing in my captivate got a new card no more problem
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cezar`:
Mount the card on your PC and run a check disk

If you still have problems, save your data and run a FULL format.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lethoncbon:
Thanks for the replies :)

It's still not working, my music is located on the internal SD of the captivate. I tried removing my "external" SD, just in case, but it doesn't change anything, music app is still freezing when changing song =/

Any other idea?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Flash to stock and see if the issue still happens? :)

Seriously though - this is a valid bug for the Auxura dev to address. If the folks running the ROM do not have this issue ... its possible that you will need to re-flash the ROM again to fix it.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/11186-idea-advanced-incoming-call-rejection/

I, unfortunately, lack the knowledge required to make this, as does the OP of that post. I would hasten to add that I am learning Java and C++ (and would love to make this myself), I just haven't made it very far (OOP is screwing with my head)

So, I figured I'd make that post known over here too. I'd love it if this kind of thing was put into ROMs, not just CM. So yeah, I guess I'm asking if anyone over here would be willing to give making that a shot.

Cheers in advance :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Poryhack:
I'm aware that too many failed attempts to remove the SIM lock on GSM phones will usually result in a permanent/semipermanent lockout, but shouldn't it be possible to mitigate this if running a modified ROM?

After that bruteforcing a strictly numeric, 8-digit code should be doable in a very reasonable amount of time.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Howling Wolf:
Hi all,

it seems I can't find it anywhere... The Bootanimation was used by Mdeejay on his Desire HD roms for the HD2 which I sold. What I don't know is if it's specific to Mdeejay's roms, or it comes with Hastarin's kernels:

1st there's a black splash screen with htc in green, and then appears Droid with 'sparks' or 'thunderbolts' emanating from its antennas while Android system loads. Under Droid was written " LeTama @ xda ".

I asked LeTama but he's not the creator of the Bootanimation, so I don't know if its Mdeejay's or Hastarin's creation...

Someone here knows what I'm talking about because I would love to have it on my Desire HD !

I thank in advance anyone helping me on this!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Howling Wolf:
Come on... I know I'm not the only one having the Desire HD and coming from the HD2/Leo... ?

Mdeejay's DHD roms were the best for the HD2, I'm positive many here used them, no ?

The DHD is my first Android device so I'm not familiar with the one but I definately want to see that boot animation.

Here's a bump

I sent Mdeejay a pm, but that's no surprise, I didn't get any answer... :'(
