To : Jefflyonfr,

you USB tool not able to resize from image to a larger SD card, 8 or 16GB. Do you know any tool can resize Android partition ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jefflyonfr:
Shaking problem solution is available here , on slatedroid forum in english :

slatedroid.com/index.php?topic=12192.msg99436;topicseen#msg99436

The post explaines something like that :

"The problem (for me anyway) is a that touchscreen plate is being squashed or deformed by cheap ass top cover. It is causing lots of junk touches be generated when you press it because of the warps in the plastic. That is why it works so much better when the cover is off. Its a noisy touchscreen but you can get it back down to "acceptable" levels for the touch driver's sample averaging algorithm to handle.

This is nothing to do with EMI or any fancy electrical stuff.. just crap design and workmanship quality.

This is a (and I mean relatively.. ) easy fix by adding a shim under the edges of touchscreen so there is little or no pressure on the screen itself and/or shaving off some plastic off the stand where the LCD screen sits. You need to make sure that the touch screen is not warped or twisted in any way. If you have ever tried to mod an EEEPC netbook with a third party touch screen, then you would know what I mean. mmm.. I'm guess not many of you guys here have. ;) "

Androidtouchpc.com released SL-A8, HEROTAB dual speaker firmwares last night

Androidtouchpc.com has came through once again for all those with the Touch8 Max or the SL-A8 (Utopia model) or the dual speaker Herotab. We are finishing up another clone model and that will be released shortly as well, but if you have either of the 2 models mentioned, visit us on the web and support our efforts. We have put in a lot of time with this release and appreciate all the support. We now have a full Android Market, we have tested the other methods out there, but this is the only true 100% market. We also addressed the G-sensor for the models mentioned. If your model was not mentioned, be patient as we will have those releases shortly. Once again thanks for the support as we will have more to come.....

Replace 4 GB memory with 32 GB memory

I have a Herotab M802 in transit. I also have a 32 GB SDHC card and was wondering if I could replace the internal 4 GB card that comes with the unit? The would allow me greater capacity and not have to cary the tablet with a card protruding from the side as the card does not fit flush in the case.

Thanks for your thoughts.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alessio2:

Just copy the contents from 4GB to 32GB because whole system is on this card.

Its not as easy as it may seems at first glance.

your new Micro SD must be partitioned and has the same structure as the original. Of cause you can always repartition it the way you want, but basic structure should be the same. There is a big discussion on this topic at slatedroid.com/index.php?topic=13992.0

I have an IMX515 tablet with the original build:

Model imx51_bbg

Android version 2.2

Kernel 2.6.31-01012-g4f92f83-dirtyroot@taojixiong-desktop #84

Build imx51_bbg-eng 2.2 FRF85B eng.root.20110101.013652 test-keys

When the power lead is connected, it has a Red LED.

It has one barcode on the back of the tablet MiD8K201101012092.

I picked up an Androidtouchpc Rom (Freescale iMX515 - Android 2.2 Release - FR809, FS-805 No Screws - 2 Side Speakers). Having installed the Android SDK, I tried simply copying the update.atp to my 8GB Micro-SD card and booting the tablet, but the tablet just boots normally without updating.

I am able to launch the tablet into update and reset mode by holding down the up-down and menu buttons. When I attach my tablet to my Win7 64 –bit or Vista 32-bit machine, it allows me to connect with USB storage to the device and both pcs have the Composite ADB Interface driver installed from the Google SDK USB drivers folder.

When I run “adb devices” it lists 123456789ABCDEF with a status of offline.

Should I expect to be able to better connect my tablet to my PC for flashing?

Has anyone with a similar spec tablet successfully updated with any available Roms? The original Rom which is on it is Android 2.2 and the Android market is working but I am not able to use the Facebook or update it as it keeps telling me that the update file is not signed.

Thanks for your assistance.

Hello

This would be fun to try, but none of the above links work anymore. dont suppose they could be updated to work again?

I have a m7206 android tablet, the screen is broken and touch does not work anymore. :< unit works fine otherwise :>

I was unsing it with a wireless mouse for while, but I ending up factory resetting it last night and now when it goes to start and resetup the os. The first screen that comes up is a screen calibration screen. Of which I cannot do ;< seeing how touch does not work. I tried with the mouse and that does not work.

I thought if I loaded a different rom on it and solve my issue. I tried to last night, and my tablet does not load the rom up for install. Maybe I dont have the right rom loaded, I am not sure about that though.. Any help would be appreciated

Hi everyone... Just wanted to see what you all have had better luck with in terms of speed and function. Either ADW or LauncherPro on the rooted nook color?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] johnnyaqwer:
Adw is better i thought.

If I were you ,I would try other launchers,like"zeam".
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jerrygon:
Can you post the apk? Have you had the best luck with this one?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
Zeam FTW.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jerrygon:
Please share the apk. Can't find it anywhere... And home switcher if you have that as well. I can't find them... Ahhhh.

EDIT: This is version 2.6.0.

I have to ask... what's the clock (you know someone had to be the first to ask)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
The clock is a widget called simi clock.

Shortcuts and folders still don't work, but for what I have shown I didn't need them. I just dragged icons from the drawer and placed them in the dock. If something in the dock needs to be moved or removed, just long press on it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] devis:
Cool, yey it works! And that clock widget is really nice too. Completely unobtrusive yet functional. Nice find!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] norkoastal:
Launcher Pro is working great for me.. Outside of the wallpaper resizing (use stock app to add wallpaper btw), the widgets (facebook, and calendar) rock! Setting th rows and colums to 10x10 allow better placement of widgets (with resizing options avail)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] xawen:
Can anyone point to a download for Zeam 2.6.0? I can't find anything newer than 2.5.2 and the icons are waaaaay to spaced out in that version.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
Yes, but you're stuck with 3 unusable buttons that can't be removed in your dock bar. Zeam also allows you to modify the rows and columns, it just doesn't have the awesome widgets from LP.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
Check post #6 in this very thread. :rolleyes:
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] norkoastal:
I know... total bummer they can't be removed... But my NC matches my evo (minus PowerAmp) so I'm pleased...

Adw ex ftw

I'm a big fan of Launcherpro plus, having said that I just purchase and installed ADW EX on the nook this morning and I have to say it edges out launcherpro.

Specifically, the PHONE and CONTACTS buttons are blank and I can assign different icons simply by dropping them into the slots (like MIUI). And you can have more than the set number of slots (from none, to 5) plus you can resize the dock to take up less or more real estate on your screen.

for the App drawer; I've set the screen to also show 8 columns and 8 rows in Portrait and 8 columns and 6 rows in Landscape (which you can do with LPP) but ADW seems to have more options that I can actually use on the nook specifically.

Also, and as a huge, huge plus over LP, when using ADW EX the nook menu and back buttons don't disappear as when using LP. This makes the nook just that much more functional, and as a result I use the Softkeys less.

It took me about 3 minutes into the youtube video to decide it was for me. Here's a link.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD5WD-HDagM

And here it is in appbrain:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/adwlauncher-ex/org.adwfreak.launcher

And here is how you set your screen up for maximum icon real estate:

ADW > SETTINGS > UI SETTINGS > Main Dock > Main dock style 5 Icons, Main Dock size 6 (Default)

ADW > SETTINGS > UI Settings > Drawer Settings > Drawer Columns Portrait > 8

ADW > SETTINGS > UI Settings > Drawer Settings > Drawer ROWS Portrait > 8

ADW > SETTINGS > UI Settings > Drawer Settings > Drawer Columns Portrait > 8

ADW > SETTINGS > UI Settings > Drawer Settings > Drawer ROWS Landscape > 6

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] eyecrispy:
Where might I find the non-EX version of ADW? It's not in the Market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] monsterpt:
It is in the market. Try searching for "ADW launcher." Seriously tho, EX is worth the price. Its fast, flashy and totally tweakable (is that a word?) The new screen transitions are worth it alone. I hoccered it over from my Droid and it is awesome.

Sent from my Nook Color using the XDA app
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wretchedlocket:
I prefer ADW on the Nook. I love Launcher Pro on my phone, but it isn't letting my change the dock applications. ADW supports drag and drop for the dock apps.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] saeba:
Yes, just wish ADW allowed for more that 5 apps on the dock :(.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Tapiozona:
Anyone having problems installing ADW ex?

I paid for it and it was having problems authenticating the purchase and seemed stuck..after about an hour I hit cancel and then it said "purchased" in my downloads list but it hadnt installed. When I clicked on the file to install it, nothing would happen.

I used the refund option but you only get 1 refund so next time I try its forever. Do you have to sideload it or something?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] saeba:
It downloaded fine for me from the Market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Tapiozona:
It shows I purchased it but wont download the app, that sucks. There's nothing I can even do to contact the developer so looks like I'm SoL. I know its only 3 bucks, more annoyed that I can't use the launcher
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wvcachi:
Mine took forever to start downloading, and I had to hit 'Purchased' a few times, but it eventually started. I'd recommend keep trying.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Blergh, I donated to ADW about a week ago and he releases EX.. Sigh ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] k8108:
Another vote for LauncherPro Plus. I bought the ADW Launcher EX, and played around with it for awhile. But I go back to LP because 1) I can actually resize the widgets for the exact size that I want. love making my calendar and Facebook take up a whole screen. 2) Love the LP Facebook and calendar widgets.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Mikroft:
ADW allows you to resize widgets exactly the same as LauncherProPlus. They're both limited to whatever grid size layout you have on your desktop. Meaning they both snap to the grid size when you resize a widget.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nookroot:
thank guys

I must agree zeam is the one for me for now thanks guys now i can move on to getting this thing to play my video
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] k8108:
I didn't realize that about the sizing on ADW. I like that you can drag and drop the app icons in, and like the interface of ADW. Just wish I could convert my LP widgets over to it.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bugeyed1:
Anyone here know how to change the font colors in settings screen of ADW EX? All of the entries under "phone settings" look grayed out & the titles are white. Innitially I ignored all of these settings because I couldn't read them & thought they were unavailable.

There's a pop-up dock that you can put unlimited items into... Look in the settings for gestures to see how to pop it up, stroke down or stroke up, forget what is default.

ADW Doc Issue

I am using ADW launcher. Generally, I like it based on how easy it is for a noob (that would be me) to customize.

I am having one issue. After a short amount of time, most of the buttons on the main dock bar disappear. If I poweroff the NC and power back on, they are back and operational.

It happens every time I use the nook if I am on longer than 10 minutes. I have been paying attention, and I do not believe I am hitting a boundary, or dragging, etc. Seems that after a few clicks it just wants to change.

I am running ADW 1.3.6 as part of the Phiremod 5.2 install.

Anyone else run into this?

Regards,

Jim

Launcher Pro is way more responsive than ADW for me. On my Droid 1 as well.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dsf3g:
I have the same thing happen. I think the simplest solution is this: click and hold an empty area on your homescreen. You will get a popup. Click "Launcher Actions" now choose "Open/Close Dockbar." It will put an icon on your screen that will unhide the dock bar.

One of my five homescreens is set aside for shortcuts to utilities and that's where I keep this button.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] HarleyChick:
ADW all the way. I just like it better than Launcher Pro or Zeam.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pdxdublove:
There is a gesture that hides/unhides the dock that you are probably accidentally executing. If you swipe downwards from the dock, it hides/unhides the dock. No need to add the launcher action shortcut, just use the gesture. Good luck :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dsf3g:
Thanks, I'll give thath a try.
[HTC Aria General] AlbinoAsian:
Hi guys,

I'm having a weird issue with my HTC Aria,

the micro SD card I'm using goes missing from time to time especially after boot. The system just refuses to see it, a physical eject and reinsert of the card is enough to get it to read for a while until it dissappears or until I reboot.

I've already tried formatting the card with the PC and in the phone, neither of which has helped the situation. Has anyone got some other tips of what I should do to sort this problem out.

Manually removing the card 3-4 times a day gets quite tiresome.
[HTC Aria General] Darius_bd:
.

Is it a Class 2 SDHC memory? A friend was having similar problems with an 8GB card of those characteristics and the phone didnt recognized it, not even after eject and re-insert. Try if the same happens with a SDHC of bigger class (speed)
