regardless of what happened (much of which i still dont understand as i was blind-sided by everything), many people who were involved personally were in the wrong one way or another. it's sad to see that no one can man up, admit their mistakes, and work together collectively to make it better for those who matter such as the dedicated devs, forum members, and mods who overseel the whole process.

i feel especially bad for hans as he was a great dev and i enjoyed donating what little money i had to help his cause (since i dont have the skills) only to see his work be shut down. huge respects to him though for being respectful and more so since he got screwed over. i support hans 100% and hopes he comes back so i can continue my support for him. until then, i'll show support by using the axura rom and respect the notion of not spreading it on the forum.

it's a shame... perhaps we as a collective community should put our heads together and figure out a way to resolve the situation and convince hans to come back rather than creating threads moaning about the situation (myself included lol).

i have no idea where to start on this idea, any thoughts?
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
My first thought will be unpopular, but here it is, eliminate donations completely. Donation models cause problems. If you want to release something for public consumption it should be as free to the end users as the sources you got your base from.

Donation "begging" has gotten out of control with all the donate to me buttons in sigs and user profiles. Want to do devving fro money, do it elsewhere.
[Captivate General] Pvster:
interesting. i havent been around on xda long so i cant comment regarding it being a problem, but it seems its a core issue from all the comments regarding it. i'll support this move as a trial period to see what happens.
[Captivate General] id10terror:
I haven't been around long enough to really comment about XDA specifically, but being an dev myself (a little rockbox and ps3 dev work), I can say that devs all over the open source community are constantly disrespected. People feel entitled to things that these people are working on their own free time.

After reading some of this thread and skimming through the chat log posted by hans, I can't help but feel as if the dev's reaction is a bit over-dramatic. I understand why he is upset, but to completely shut down the project and any forks is a bit extreme. What "we" do is for the community and just like any community you'll always have idiots. Whether here on XDA or on any public forum, you will find these people (or rather they will find you).

I just got into the Android game about 2 weeks ago was planning on flashing this rom over to my Cappy, but as of now I'll steer away from it since it will not be updated. Maybe once I learn enough I can possibly contribute to a project.

As for the fans of Axura, I can say that sometimes devs need some time off. I wouldn't be surprised if Master comes back and "gets over it".
[Captivate General] C.C.W.:
Ditto here!
[Captivate General] DAGr8:
+ 1 million sir .

I wouldnt go to the extend of removing that option but imagine someone IRL walking around with ashirt saying ' give me money and ill help '

The donation button always raise red flags , do dev deserve money ? why not if someone is willing to send them there money well then who am I to judge ?

see my sig for what I think about exchange of money for knowledge !
[Captivate General] noidd:
I don't have a problem with deb's wanting donations, beer funds, whatever u want to call them... I think getting a "VIP" status which in turn gets you the latest release earlier for donating is what the problem is. That's like paying for something or enticing someone to pay for something.

Devs deserve a little here and there for their time and experience. You obviously don't have to give them anything but if you feel they deserve it, why not?

[Nook Color General] madsquabbles:
does anyone have a guess how well the nc might work if we get some custom roms on it?

i had finally played with a galaxy tab today and i was very impressed. this tablet is the closest to ipad performance that i've seen so far. zooming and scrolling were pretty smooth. if they priced them at $350 off contract i'd surely pic one up.

is it possible to expect that level of performance on the nc? i'm sure we can oc it to 1Ghz with a kernel that would support it.
[Nook Color General] tmats811:
I'm in agreement with you. I have the NC now, and really want to like it, but it's clear that I want more tablet in my ereader. I found a deal tonight with Radio Shack that is really tempting me. $350 with Sprint 2 yr contract until 12/11. I have a wifi iPad (yes, I have issues), but I think I can justify having a 3G tablet for travel, etc. Biggest challenge now is justifying it with my wife 3 weeks before Christmas...
[Nook Color General] 10equals2:
IIRC, the nooter sd card clocks the cpu to 1 ghz, and it works fine for that.

At the very least, we should be able to run on-demand up to 1ghz, although i'm not sure what the temps would look if it was forced to run constantly at that temp. I do know that my nook gets warm to the touch when I leave it on full 800mhz performance.
[Nook Color General] clockcycle:
Note that mhz isn't nesessarily what equals speed, I.e. amd and intel..
[Nook Color General] 10equals2:
Of course, but when we are talking about a single chip here going from 800Mhz to 1Ghz it is not unreasonable to expect some sort of speed gain. Barring nothing goes wrong of course.
[Nook Color General] pokey9000:
I played around with a 1GHz kernel on the NC, and indeed got 25% better scores in Linpack. I didn't do much more than run Linpack and Quadrant and about 10 minutes of Angry Birds and didn't run into any big trouble. I also tried faking a 1.2GHz 3630 variant but got a boot hang pretty quickly.
[Nook Color General] sudermatt:
I've read that the meaningful guts are the same as the Droid 1....I had my D1 running at 1.2 ghz....and it rocked the HOUSE!...in fact, it had plenty of power...the only reason I go the D2 was because I wanted the 8gb of internal....
[Nook Color General] poweroutlet:
With a proper froyo rom, there is no reason to believe the Nook Color can't run as smooth as an Ipad or a Galaxy Tab. Not to forget the NC has 2x the ram as an ipad. Right now the software is the limiting factor of the NC. Too put it simply, the Barnes and noble Build is garbage.

Hello guys. I'd like to start off by saying that im taking no credit for this just meerly reposting. here is the original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=860609 started in the I9000 Forum.. this app allows you to take a picture while pressing the power button and also pinch to zoom. In addition it allows you to take pictures even if the phone has a low battery %....

Installation per original OP "You can install it via "sgs tools" in the market. Select 'upgrade stock apps', then camera hack."

PS im not responsible for broken phones... tested using Axura 2.0.6 and it works..

As fas as i can tell this will work on Froyo roms NOT Eclair..i have tested on Nero roms aswell as Axura roms and all is good, pinch to zoom works and so does the HD recording... enjoy...

HELP, this camera hack broke my camera

Hi,

I installed this camera hack apk via the new sgs tools app. My camera no longer will take pictures.

I can turn the camera on but neither the camera button on the display or the power button will take a photo. It just gives an error and the camera force closes.

Is there any way to unintall the camera hack.apk?????????????

Any way to get my camera working again or do I have to flash a new rom?

Hard reset? How?

btw, I have a Samsung Vibrant 2.1 standard rom
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] danr238:
ADB push the original camera.apk from 2.1 to /system/app. This hack only works on 2.2 builds. I'm not sure about the CameraFirmware.apk, but I'd push that to be safe. Oh yeah if you're bone stock don't forget about the corresponding .odex files.

Side note:

Has anyone approached the developer asking him where he modified the .apk to allow this function?

Hello guys,

Can someone please make this app for 2.1, I have the fascinate but since we don't have any froyo roms for our devices, we're screwed!!! anyone please!!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] TEE82:
Installed on Nero v2 rom.

I installed the cam hack through SGS Tools from the Market. The power button def does work as the shutter button, but the hack itself, caused a few probs.

1. There were only 2 options for photo resolution: 3mp and 4mp. No 5mp was available.

2. Lost ability to zoom in and out. (a very important feature for any cam IMO)

3. The HD Camcorder shortcut went missing. It just disappeared from the app drawer.

4. Couldn't press the "exposure" tab. It was viewable on the screen but did not function.

* I flashed the captivate cam zip file but those mentioned probs were still there.

I had just installed Nero v2 a day prior to installing this w/out really customizing it yet so I just reflashed the rom again to get the default cam back. All was good again :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jrathbun27:
all camera features are broken now and gallery wont load... need to uninstall but there was no backup file created... and since nobody likes to reply to "how do i uninstall this" posts, ill be reflashing EVERYTHING IVE DONE!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

It is always a good idea to know how to get back to what you had before you flash a Rom or a Mod. The good news it that .apk's are easy. What you should have done was copy the old .apk and place it on your internal or external SD card. Alternaltively, you could have appended the dot .apk with .bak (camerapp.apk.bak) which would render it unusable to the system and can be left right where it is in case the new version does not work out for quick re-insatallation. What you can do now is unzip the rom your are currently using (You do have it saved on you computer, I hope), then place the .apk on you internal or external SD card. Move it to System/app using Root Explorer. Longpress on the file and select 'Permissions'. Change the permissions to 'rw-r--r--'. Your camera app is back! Just reboot if it does not show up immediately. Hope this reaches you before you do all that work, but even if I'm too late, this is good to know for future reference.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jscarano:
I did what you said but it aint workin. I used SGS tools to install it because just replacing the camera.apk wasnt working. I did make a back up of the old apk but no luck at all. I guess I have to reflash my rom. sucks

p.s the camera works but the 720p video locks up and reboots the phone everytime.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] BaoQ:
I use Super Manager(free) in the market and copy the old camera apk to system/app and I got the old camera back.

If you didn't back up the apk, just extract it from the rom you downloaded.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] crowlaw:
So if I am running nero3 w/ voodo 5, is there a general consensus if this is safe to use?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
camera hack

Not trying to be rude, but "it aint workin" is not enough information to help troubleshoot. Over the internet it is necessary to be as thorough as possible when describing a problem. Now, I have to assume that when you used my advice, the cam force closed on you. What you would need to do in this case is press the 'menu' button, then 'settings>applications>manage applications>'all' tab, then scroll down to the camera app. Select it then erase any cache and data. That should fix it.:)

Again, I have to assume that you have reflashed and you are still having problems? Definitely follow the direction above. I'm pretty sure my first instructions worked but because of that carry over data the cam wouldn't work and is still not even though you've reflashed. Old data in a lot of cases is not good. Aways be very selective in what data you restore when you flash a new Rom.:)

Is there anyway to change how HTC Messaging displays an SMS received timestamp?

Currently it shows the time that your phone actually receives it. I'd like for it to show the time the SMS server receives it just like the WM Messaging app did.

At times I'm in a spot where I don't have service for extended periods of time & I'd like to know if the SMS I'm replaying to was actually sent recently or a few hours ago.

Thanks for any help.

Instructions:

1.Disable Sense from Today items.

2.Install CAB KVR FACEBOOK HVGA (ENGLISH) OR (SPANISH)(this will create a shortcut to "FixStartManila" in your Start Menu)

3.Tap "FixStartManila" to run it. It will likely seem like nothing happened.

4.Tap "FixStartManila" a second time. This time, you will likely see the wait cursor, which will stay for 10 seconds or so.

5.Re-enable Sense in Today items.

6.Done!
