I have this problem too - I connect to my car stereo via A2DP bluetooth. If WiFi is enabled I get occasional bluetooth dropouts - if not enabled no problem.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
saw this working today - must have needed a reboot or two or something...
[Desire General] _L_:
What i have noticed with the update is

1> Very good battery life when its at idle, but when in use its about the same i guess.

2> Messaging seems to be improved, previously when pressing the back button to erase characters would usually make it jump to the top of the message.. and if you had a big threat then it would be very very annoying.. havent noticed it do this yet with the new update.

3> Something about the keyboard feels different, not able to figure it out, but definitely feels better for some reason...
[Desire General] al89nut:
Updated today and the fb app is v1.50.
[Desire General] wollyka:
Does this OTA update Facebook for HTC sense (the one that integrates with the people/phone HTC app) or the normal Facebook for Android application that you can download from the market (official android app made by Facebook Inc.)? I find it strange that HTC is pushing an update that includes an app NOT made by them! I think people are confusing between the two.
[Desire General] Triton1986:
Sinds this is a thread about change of the 2.29.xxx.x update. What is the available internal memory size before and after the update? Will it consume the 25mb like stated before? I have a non rooted (adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2) Desire.

I dont like it to get my phone on a diet.
[Desire General] 3722:
I cannot tell you exactly how much your internal storage will change after the update but the needed space to install the update is needed as a buffer, and this OTA is just a newer version of the software and radio, nothing new is added, thus your internal memory will not decrease significantly (it may even increase, I have not checked how it went before and after the OTA).
[Desire General] Triton1986:
Thanx. I installed the update. For others who are curious about change in memory size:

before intern 26.91 FREE of 148MB TOTAL

after intern 25.50 FREE of 148MB TOTAL

before system 12.01 FREE of 250MB TOTAL

after system 7.01 FREE of 250MB TOTAL

sys-catch and SD have not changed mutch.

Sometimes when i reboot my phone internal memory changes too, so maybe this update didn't do anything to the internal memory. However maybe google Maps, facebook and flash have been updated (I didn't update them from the markted).. so maybe this explains the slightly decrese in internal memory?

I dont know, but i can conclude that updating doesn't do your internal memory any harm if you are concerned about this
[Desire General] Double-UA:
No more BT problems with this update

With the previous update (405.2) I had problems with my Plantronics Voyager BT headset. After disconnecting the headset I wasn't able to regulate the in-call volume on my Desire any more. This problem seems solved now :)

I'm running Android 2.2 and Windows 6.5 on my HD2.

I wanted to give the phone to my brother to use but I dont want all of my info on it. I was easly able to recover windows, but android wont do the same because it is not a native android phone. When I tryed it just goes back to windows. I need to delete my gmail sync info. How do I pull this off short of reinstalling the whole image?

[Windows Phone 7 General] Purple11:
I dont understand, the phones got bigger and brighter and more data consuming and connected all the time for 'push' notifications... but the battery remained the same.

Surely they have some free space inside the hardware after increasing the screen size from all dimensions.. so why coudnt they rearrange hardware inside for space for a little larger battery?

[Gen8 Android Development] Dreetje:
Hi all,:D

Well for everyone who want's to have the Google apps like:

Android market

Youtube

Gmail

etc.

Here is a link to a share where the gapps4archos can be downloaded.:p

http://code.google.com/p/archos-apps-installer/downloads/list

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:

WARNING: You cannot install this appInstaller if you installed gApps4Archos or any other gApps installer. Anytime you switch appInstaller programs, you MUST reset your device back to stock. If you've NEVER installed ANY market/gApps installer, then your good... no need to reset.

NOTE: If you've ONLY used my appInstaller, then you can REMOVE the old files using my app and re-install the apps at the same time, then REBOOT.

1) Download - http://code.google.com/p/archos-apps-installer/downloads/list

2) Copy download to your device via USB (if you didnt download directly using your Archos)

3) Use 'Files' app to locate gAppsInstaller, then execute/install it

4) Choose install packaged apps or choose to install your own packaged 'apps.zip' file located on the internal drive (not sdcard)

4a) There maybe a short delay after you tap an install button (its installing and you'll be notified when its done, about 5-10 seconds)

5) REBOOT!!

6) Follow the Market FIX instructions below

MARKET FIX:

This will get you most missing apps from the market, except some "protect market apps"

Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Market (Clear Cache then 'Force Stop' -- DO NOT clear data)

Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Google Services Framework (Clear data then 'Force Stop')

REBOOT again

Market Fix video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l-nySibzeA&feature=player_embedded#!

If you do this correctly you will find most missing apps like 'Copilot Live USA' in the Market. However, some apps will not show because they are "protected" Market apps. These include 'NY Times'. Google search "android protected market apps" if your not familar.

NOTE: The latest version of GMAIL and Youtube can be downloaded in the market...

Thanks to our friends from the archosfans.com forum :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] supagforce:
Thankyou for this, I have seen how much work you have put into it. Tried gAppsInstaller_v3.apk this morning and seems to be working well, no FC's etc so far...

(edit)Oppss ment to say thankyou Kenyu73 for the app and thanks Dreetje for posting, thought you was Kenyu under a different name...
[Gen8 Android Development] Dreetje:
Well i didn't made it, Kenyu73 did make it :-) It makes my device complete, really love the Archos device!
[Gen8 Android Development] Hexidecimal:
Thanks! I've looked at these instructions a dozen times on ArchosFans and always missed that market was clear cache not clear data and never figured out why it didn't work right for me. With the latest gapps I'm now seeing most everything. Awesome guide!

Edit: For some reason when I use this installer however, TweetDeck will not run properly. It always Force Closes once I've signed into my account and I cannot fix it. This is one of my favorite apps. If someone could figure this out I would appreciate it.

Edit 2: This installer causes a ton of apps not to launch in my experience thus far. TweetDeck as mentioned, Moblox, Angry Birds, they all just FC or hang endlessly. I'd still recommended the other installer with the same steps outlined in this post.
[Gen8 Android Development] g00ner:
Stupid question but does "reset your device back to stock" mean anything else than a reboot? Like an Android reset or something?
[Gen8 Android Development] r3v0Lut10n:
from recovery or from menu, not reboot :)
[Gen8 Android Development] r3v0Lut10n:
thanks for the advise on market acces update, now finally updated gmail apk ;)
[Gen8 Android Development] BGMArchos:
I have the Google Marketplace up and running and for the most part it works wonderfully. My biggest issue are protected applications I use on my HTC EVO aren't showing up and some of these application I really use / enjoy. Some of these are:

1) BatteryView

2) Battery Watch

3) Splash ID!

4) Monster App Pro (I'm using the non-Pro right now)

I've been trying to add the "Market Access" application to the mix to help me with this issue, but thus far can't get z4root to work. Oh, it says it was successful, but none of the programs that need root can get it from the Super User application.

I can live without these protected applications, they are simply nice to have -- except Splash ID!, which IMHO, is necessary to protect my development personal, professional, and development information. I was able to get a work around for Splash ID, for which I'm thankful.

[Gen8 Android Development] MidwestDrummer:
Excuse my ignorance, but how is this at all new? There's been a gapps hack available for every Archos device for quite some time now. It's always been readily available on ArchosFans.com.
[Gen8 Android Development] Domen Lo:
It's a different version which allows for more flexibility, especially for updating the two most useful core apps.
[Gen8 Android Development] xShadoWxDrifTx:
It also has less apps in it, saving space for where the apps are installed, especially since Archos only provided around 275~ MB of space for app installation

And not all apps can move to sd card so any space is helpful
[Gen8 Android Development] donnellb:
All we need now is the Samsung Galaxy Tab email app ported over. If anyone has any idea please share.
[Gen8 Android Development] kenyu73:
Thanks for posting the info for my gAppsInstaller. I've been away from the game for a few days now doing housework "mods" (=

The only issue remaining that I'm aware of with this app is a certain sub-set of apps that FC (AutoZone, OSMonitor and a few others mentioned in this thread. I haven't had time to research, but whatever the gApps4Archos is doing is making these work ok... I'm thinking its some registration of dll files ('so' files perhaps). I do know it copies 4-5 .so files into the froyo/system directory, but i'm not sure right now if I need to do some type of '.so' file registration with them.

If any linux guru's out there know of something I need to do specifically with these (besides copying them to the '/froyo/system' directory, please let me know.

libspeech.so

libvoicesearch.so

libzxing.so

libimageutils.so

libinterstitial.so
[Gen8 Android Development] Dreetje:
There is the guru! I thought i share it with the XDA members :-)

[Gen8 Android Development] czesiu:
you tried to ask m4rk3t about this?:)
[Gen8 Android Development] kenyu73:
I dont think he created the original gApps4Archos package, he only de-compiled it, added the updated the apps with the newer 2.2 market then vanished.

I think he dropped of the radar after he did the re-package of that app.

Are these apps for Froyo or Eclair? Does it matter?

I'll be getting my A70 today and reading about all the problems people are having with the Froyo update I figured I would stay with Eclair until Archos release a more stable build. If these apps are for Froyo, where can I find them for Eclair? They should still be around I hope.

I installed the market with v3 did the fix but whenever I try to install an app the download fails.

Any ideas?

Edit: Another FC of Services Framework did solve the problem.No reboot needed after that.
[Gen8 Android Development] kenyu73:
gAppsInstaller_v4 released.. more stable Market and misc market apps no longer FC (WeatherBug, OSMonitor and prob a bunch other.

Note: If your coming from gApps4Archos installer, then you MUST reset. If your coming from gAppsInstaller_v3 then you probably have to REST. Basically, you shoud reset as these are core Android files and re-installing over existing installers usually causes more headaches.

I've created an official thread with this appInstallers "how-to" so I can manage the OP instructions. I will also manage these instructions here on XDA instead of the ArchosForums.

Please use this new thread for questions and issues. I think the v4 version will suite people alot better now.

(XDA) gAppsInstaller_v4 - NEW APK - Froyo

Original ArchosFans thread​

Thanks 'Dreetje' for starting this thread up!
[Gen8 Android Development] xguntherc:
I did the original gApps4Archos2.apk

so that means if I wanna do this, I must wipe completely and restart? Whats the difference? I can restore with titanium if needed. So not extremely worried
[Gen8 Android Development] kenyu73:
You can try a re-install over gApps4Archos, but typically it causes the Market to crash alot or not even start (it pops open then dies).

I've come to think that different Market apks(Vendor.apk) have different internal keys of some sort that get initialized in the android core database. If you try to install a different flavor of Vendor.apk, you get crazy results.

My v4 version of the core apps is a Cyanogen bundle and is prob different then gApps4Archos2 or even my v3 version.

Like I said try to update.. if it fails then reset and start over. ;)
[Gen8 Android Development] Dreetje:
thank you for developping! I'll try the gapps4 this week, the v3 does hang my machine :-)

Keep up the good work! I'll update the titel and the links later this week.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rossl:
Hi,

I am having problems getting VpyrVPN or any VPN to work on my current setup. I can create the VPN profile from within android and it connects fine. However after the tunnel is established (and I can see this as ppp1 in system info) no traffic appears to route down the tunnel. Everything still defaults to go over the standard 3G routing.

For example if I go to whatismyip.com I retain the IP address of the telecoms provider. This is not the case when testing on a wifi connection as it works fine.

I am running MDJ Desire HD v4.3.

I have tested VPN access via my provider on 3G by tethering my laptop to my HD2 via the Android "Wifi Hotspot" app and it connects fine on the laptop and routes down the VPN as expected.

Is this a known problem with froyo or could this be specific to using PPP rather than RMNET? Or is there a fix?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Ross

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sanix:
I've some basic questions about rooting:

I've already rooted my HTC Desire and it seems to work.

Did I understand correctly that the application itself has to ask for superuser rights to get root? I cannot grant it myself?

It download a console emulator application and tried to get root with

sudo su

and it did not work. I guess this is because the application did not ask for root privileges, when it started?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
It should be automatic, does not have to be at startup of the app.

Download a proper terminal emulator (i use 'Android Terminal Emulator') type 'su' and hit enter, you should get the notification about superuser rights. Unless it's the first time, than you get a pop up that asks for permission.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jorijn:
Hello,

I have been using Sense for almost an entire year, I hated that it drained the battery and was slow most of the times. I'm a happy Oxygen user now.

The only thing I really miss is the HTC camera. I like the feature that I can touch the screen anywhere and that it'll focus on that point. The stock camera app just focusses the entire screen, which basicly sucks.

So, does anyone have a good idea?

Jorijn.
[Desire Themes and Apps] simonthor:
I like camera 360. And I think it has the feature you want. :)

Although I must say, what you sacrifice in camera features, the gallery more than makes up for.

Hello.

I have a black G1 that has been rooted, danger spl, latest radio, i followed everything from this forum. I currently have Super D 1.11 running on the phone. I decided that i wanted to run apps2sd and a swap partition so i went to micro-center and purchased a class 6 sd card. When I go and try and partition the card in the amon recovery 1.7 i keep getting this error.

Error: Input/output error during write on /dev/block/mmcblk0

Retry/Ignore/Cancel?

First I thought that the card was bad so i went back to micro-center and exchanged it for another one.

Still the same problem.

This only happens with this card, the class 2 cards i have work fine no problems at all.. What is going on here? Did anyone else have this problem? What can I do to fix it?
