Where are all my MyTouch4G users at?...it's time to lit this phone up..we need more devs more roms..:D Please Donate so we can get more devs to work on our phone every dollars counts..

PS: Thank You itmustbejj for stepping up the plates..now it's our turn to help the community.
[myTouch 4G General] Whosdaman:
Ok I just donated $10 and I don't have have the freaking device...this better be worth it ;)
[myTouch 4G General] setzer715:
LOL, now just don't go getting all demanding on us Mr. Moderator! LOL
[myTouch 4G General] 2Noob4U:
Donated $20. Hopefully I can continue to help out this forum. I came in much too late on the G1 and Magic forums.

I'm not an endless pocketbook, but I sure appreciate all the hard work done around here.

I'd like to be hit up for any other needs for developing the phone.
[myTouch 4G General] Foo_Blyat:
Awesome work op, please let us know if evil d or toast jump in, then ill send 20 aswell.
[myTouch 4G General] 30Glock:
Excellent way to get this off the ground, Count me in as well.
[myTouch 4G General] tw39515:
20 bux sent
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Ok just to update everyone I transfered $180.00 bucks from paypal to my bank account. This should be $150 for the phone + tax + 2 day shipping.

150 + 10.50 + 10.33 = 170.83. I went ahead and took out 180 cuz the shipping quote I got was for 1 pound and I'm not exactly sure of the weight of the new phone with packaging.

That leaves me about $4.73 left over for donations. Paypal says that money takes 3-4 days to transfer to my bank account and that I should be able to expect it by the 9th so with 2-day shipping Zinx should have the phone some time around next weekend.

I think this whole thing went really well and if there are enuff ppl that support the idea, I think we should try to get a phone for Evil D. I hope to hear back from him later today to find out if he would even be interested.

Either way with Zinx getting his phone and Enomther having a MT4G soon we should hopefully being a lil more activity in the dev section :)
[myTouch 4G General] woldy2:
ill donate $10...kinda on a tight budget with christmas coming up, but ill donate what i can
[myTouch 4G General] 2Noob4U:
Yeah I'd be willing to get evil D one too.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Well I just talked to eVil and he says he would be interested. So now that we have zinx covered, if everyone is still game keep donating and we'll get eVil a phone. I will update the first post to keep a tally for eVil D.
[myTouch 4G General] truthkillszz:
Well I pay rent this week so next week I'll donate atleast 20 we can't let this sexy beast of a phone die

Awesome guys, I marked you down in the eVil D donation thread.
[myTouch 4G General] esincho:
I guess its my day to be an idiot, but where is your paypal button?
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
It's right under my name on the left hand side of my posts. It's the xda "donate to me" button. Remember mark it as a personal gift if you don't want to be charged the paypal commision on your donation.
[myTouch 4G General] esincho:
Im still lost, sorry
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
on this very post you are reading....look left. see the penguin with machine guns? it's above him :)
[myTouch 4G General] Foo_Blyat:
thats one bad ass penguin, can you do us a huge favor in the evil d donation thread and let us know how much "leftovers" were transferred to his "fund".

Thanks boss, also how can we go about finding someone with an upgrade for him. This girl was looking at my phone last night for hours and wants to buy it, is there anyway she can get two for like 79.99 or w/e off wirefly?

EDIT: does he not want to be in contract?
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
eVil D was in #HTC_Glacier this morning. You can also follow him on twitter @RuNuH.

My twitter is @itmustbejj if you were wondering.

[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Haha yeah sorry I missed the screenshot. I'm doing like 8 things at once.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Thanks for all the donations guys. Just so everyone is clear here, we already have enuff donations for Zinx's phone and we are working on getting eVil D a mt4g to work on. I will be updating the donation list in that thread.
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
You know the Nexus S is really tempting, mostly because it comes with plain vanilla Android. From what I've read it appears to only come with 512mb ram as opposed to the MT4G's 768, which just doesn't make sense to me.
[myTouch 4G General] corwest:
My bad. I donated to the greater cause. Wherever the money is most needed then that'd where it can go. Good work too jj.
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
So my remorse period ended yesterday and I still have the phone with no remorse about my decision. Where do I send the $20 I pledged?
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
We already have enough money, why don't you just wait and donate it to one of the devs after they put out some roms :)
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
Because my name is on the list and I don't welch. ;)

Now that you mention it though, I don't think I've donated to ezterry yet and he's done some really great work that I've used. I'll donate to his beer fund or something.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
I took your name off, but I have full faith you will put it back into the android community at some point.
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
Thanks, I've already donated to Cyan, Amon_Ra, ezterry (I *think,* have to check) and the G2 root fund. Hopefully someday I'll be able to contribute with development and not just beer money.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Just an update to everyone, I picked up zinx and evil's phones tonight and hope to have them shipped soon.

Sent from my frozen tower with my frosty glacier
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
No pressure, just excitement and anticipation. It's still amazing to me that these guys do all this for free.
[myTouch 4G General] daryllh:
They aren't doing it for 'free'. They get a phone. If I had the know-how and intelligence, that would be incentive for me...a $400 gift for doing something I'm good at.
[myTouch 4G General] esincho:
They are doing it for free. A phone donated to them is to benefit us. They already have devices they develop for, and put on xda, for free. They could keep it to themselves.
[myTouch 4G General] daryllh:
i guess it's semantics. If I do something for free and I get a product in return for doing that thing, I don't consider it 'for free' because I received a gift.

I consider it a trade.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
I consider the phones we gave them as more of a tool to help them give us better roms. It's hard if not impossible to make quality device-specific roms without the device.

Yes the phones have value and they do benefit, but we were the ones who approached them and asked for their help.
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
In the grand scheme of things it is free. When have you ever been required to pay before downloading a Rom?
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
*coughkangxklickcough*
[myTouch 4G General] greenstuffs:
Man i don't know about you but if a dev wanted to go work with minimum wage instead of the time spent on making roms (i'm not saying they make this little) i'd be way more than the $400 that the phone costs. Also you have to add the headache from the cry babies that never read the stickies and like

"my phone doesn't boot" - did you delete cache?

"my phone is dead" - did you read the stickies

"oh noooezzz my wifi is broken" - the rom is not finished (did you read?)

Then there are people venting at the devs for making ****ty roms because they are in beta stage but no those people expected fully working roms.

If i was in a devs shoes i'd rather not accept the gift and do better things but no they spend great deal of time so we can enjoy our phones more.

And your comment is way off the line.

P.S Devs have families too so they could also spend the time making roms for other family matters.
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
Thank you, this is exactly my point. The degree of gratitude relative to the degree of labor involved in developing a fully functioning ROM is totally out of whack.

A lot of the noobs act completely entitled and ungrateful, which just blows my mind.

If ever there's any way I can help out a dev, even if it's proofreading, essay correcting, girl advice, whatever... let me know and I'm on it.

EDIT - If any of the devs live in the SF Bay Area I will personally buy you a couple of rounds. :D
[myTouch 4G General] daryllh:
comment way off the line? Riiight. I wasn't dissing anybody, whining or saying anything negative. It was a discussion.

I apologize, i read the comment in a different tone.

I need windows 6.5 for Canada Telus HTC Touch Pro 2. Have they released a version for Canada? If so, where could I find it?

I've been trying to upgrade my OS and when I attempt to download the update it gives me an error saying "this download is not suitable for this device" I believe it is because the download is for european phones.

In addition to this question, has anyone had any success unlocking the Touch Pro 2 from Telus to Rogers?

A quick response would be muchly appreciated.

Thank you!!!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guilhermedsx:
Hey guys. I'm having a little big problem with messaging on the Vibrant.

When I send SMS to someone, it only sends half of it and some weird square symbols.

Let me try to explain. I'm on threaded view on the Messaging app, and it shows the balloon with the message and "more...". I can click there to read the full message.

The issue is, the person I sent it will only receive the SMS up to that point, followed by some weird squares. I believe it shows this when i try to write more than 80 ~ 85 characters, way lower than the usual 160 limit for SMS. I don't get the More... for incoming SMS, and I receive them full. It only cuts in half the ones I send.

I was on stock ROM, upgraded to JI6 to see if it was fixed but still getting the same issue.

Any ideas why I'm getting this? It's so weird...

Thanks for your attention!

EDIT: As a friend advised me, changing the alphabet to GSM instead of Unicode fixed it. Thanks anyway!

So it seems that the XM satellite radio app will only work with a cellular network and not on wifi. This is currently the on the top of my wish list...if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Thombose:
Hey,

I'm in a bit of a panic :)...

my cell phone ran out of battery life. When I came hame I pressed the power button and he showed the boot screen. Then I plugged him in en left him there for a while. Now , coming back, I tried to boot again but nothing happens. When he's unplugged from the power socket, he doesn't do anything at all, not even bootloader. When I plug hiim in he get's into a loop. He boots(shows black Touch Pro2 sign, red led goes out) then he immediatelly goes to black screen again (red led goes on again) and does this in a loop. Also when I can get to bootloader (rainbow screen) for 3 seconds, power off instantly again)...

I have done a HardSPL and installed Energy Rom 2 weeks ago..;everything worked fine (more or less, had at least 1 crash every two days, but better then the crash every day with stock rom)...

A phone of 600 euro's, I hope it's not bricked :p Any solution or can I send it in for repairs like this? Rom flashing voids warranty I suppose?

Tom
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
This is common when the battery is below a certain threshhold. Until it is charged above that the phone will not boot. If the battery is not taking a charge then it's time for a new battery. Yes, a non=OEM ROM will void your warrnty. Do not send it in for service with anything but the stock ROM and no HardSPL on it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Thombose:
but why does it boot by itself, when plugged in, followed by power off within 2 seconds? There was nothing wrong with battery before this? Shouldn't it be a steady decline instead of being wasted just at once?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
It will try to boot, but the phone will not run on just the AC power and if the battery is too low it will go into a reboot loop. LioN batteries can just go bad and stop taking a charge. That's why I have 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] F2504x4:
Are you near a place that has this phone in stock ? or a friend that has one ? if so go there and ask them to let you use the battery for a minute, power the phone up completely , then shut it down properly, take out battery, then put your old battery back in , do not power it on , fully charge it. You should be good to go...;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Thombose:
after leaving the battery out for a night, he charged normally and booted normally...fieuw..bit strange, but will not ask any questions about it :p...thanx for all the help!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
Yeah, I knew it eventually would. Happened to me once. I think it has less to do with the battery and more to do with a glitch in the phone reporting that the battery level is low upon boot when it really isn't.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] -viperboy-:
Searched around here and found a few posted, but none of them seemed to work. Tired installing through Astro and ADB on Frost ROM. Both times, when changing to Android Keyboard input method and going to type into a text box, I get an immediate FC on the keyboard.

Anyone have a good APK?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Karadorde:
In an effort to quickly get you something that is useable, I would point you in the direction of the Droid Multi Touch Keyboards. They are rather similiar in look and feel to the AOSP keyboards.

EDIT: I know this isn't exactly what you are looking for, but it satisfied my need for an AOSP keyboard for the longest time so I figured I would at least share. Hope this helps at least somewhat.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] -viperboy-:
Thanks alot, I was going to give that a shot, but I had the DroidX and I hated that keyboard. But I guess it can't be worse than the HTC keyboard... or can it? :p

I will give it a try, thanks! Anyone else know of any that work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
This is a port of the MIUI rom to our mdpi devices. We need help to get this ROM running on our lower end devices (ie: Hero, G1, Magic, etc). Please PM alexthearmo if you are willing to help in any way!

Update 12/22/10: We are officially done porting every single png in every apk to be compatible with our phones (mdpi). This has been a huge undertaking and many people were involved: ehac1680, alexthearmo, neilege, andronut, dannybiker, moxlon69, asadullah, and jpool81 (if I forgot you, please PM me). Unfortunately, this project is now beyond our capabilities. Now that the tedious work is done, we need some Devs who are willing to get these APKs to run on our devices. I am posting a link to the new mdpi MIUI apks, so that any willing DEV can take this project to the next level. PLEASE don't let this project be abandoned! It is now in the hands of the community/devs!

Here are the MDPI MIUI APKS. <-----These are all the apk files that are found in the MIUI ROM.

Credits: A detailed list of who did which apks

If you are interested in learning more about the MIUI rom, check out the following links!

MIUI ROM in action: MIUI VIDEO

Read about the latest MIUI update here: MIUI UPDATE

And here's a link to the ROM for any DEVS who want to look at it and help port: MIUI ROM DOWNLOAD <--- Don't Flash! This ROM has the old (hdpi) apks. If you want the new (mdpi) ones, download them from the top of the OP.

Keep this thread positive and proactive and soon enough we'll have a sweet ROM! Thanks for a great community!

God bless!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Pretty sweet! Wonder if it would run as smooth on half the processor?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
It should. They said it makes the Nexus One process 3 times faster than stock android. That's a crazy speed boost, so it should be the same for us as well. You can read about it in the article I recently posted to the bottom of the original post.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ASimmons:
I pm'ed bnice about this since he mentioned that he could get the kernel running for the hero, and I have a ton of experience with porting pngs. But I haven't heard back, I might have to signup at miui to get his attention.

What do you guys think should I per-sue this? I run miui on my evo now and I need a reason to mess with the hero again.

Over clocking and optoes can very alot between cpu's while I think it would run on the hero just fine, I would expect it to be very comparable to other AOSP roms.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
If it's worth running on the EVO I'd say its definately worth running on the Hero :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
YES! Please Pursue! We need the help. I just downloaded the newest MIUI rom to check out the files...but I'm dreading doing the 9.pngs. I am so slow at them, and I've only really worked with them twice before.

Here...download the latest ROM and check it out. If you have a lot of experience, it'll help make the process so much faster. We would LOVE the help! http://code.google.com/p/d1-miui/downloads/detail?name=D1-MIUI-0.11.26.1.zip&can=2&q

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ASimmons:
My theme porter could probably do a substantial amount of the png porting with some small tweaks to it. Alex tell me if you need anything I'll follow your lead on this.

EDIT:

I check the out tonight and see if I can't convert every png (even the 9 patch's) tonight. I'll check back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Awesome! If you need help with the pngs let me know (though, I don't have very much time right now...it's finals time for college). I don't know how to do any of the kernel, or xml stuff...I just know how to work with pngs, 9.pngs, and a TINY bit of HEX editing...so we need people like you involved with the project.

Do you know how to do all the other fancy stuff? (ie: compiling, getting a rom to work on our hardware, etc)?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Got a reply. MIUI doesn't have any intention of building for older, non smartphone-optimized, processors like ours. That being said, they're on the fence about releasing source code since they already sent some towards CM and his team. :\ Sorry guys.

Our biggest will be getting this thing to boot fully with the armv7 built libraries from the other MIUI ROMs. I've spread myself really thin, so I'm not sure how much time I'll be able to invest into this project. Possibly, over the break(winter), I'll have a lot of free time. Depends on work.
