I registered about 6 months ago when I had my moment and got the email last night that they finally approved it. Now I have an evo and swype works great on it. I'm so used to the moment's small screen that I actually find it easier to swype in portrait mode. Swype is great!
[EVO 4G General] cornelious2:
That worked thanks!
[EVO 4G General] edlex:
Yea I like the new look of the keys plus the dedicated voice key. I wonder how long they will let us have it for this time?
[EVO 4G General] SkuzFoz:
I never got an email, and the site says I'm not in the beta.

However, I downloaded SwypeInstaller from my phone, and it downloaded. Opened it, it downloaded Swype just fine and I'm using it daily now with no problems. SwypeInstaller however was keeping my phone from sleeping, simply uninstalled it.
[EVO 4G General] C.Flat:
I did the same thing lol. Kind of defeats the purpose of a closed beta :D
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
i have to say this is strange why to send txt emails lol i think its kinda growing on me im so use to Swiftkey
[EVO 4G General] tgruendler:
HUH????????????
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
what part of swyping is strange for me lol im so use to a normal keyboard on my phone and i use swiftkey mostly

[EVO 4G General] animal7296:
Try the resend option that I posted earlier. That is how I got mine.
[EVO 4G General] talltatro:
I had them resend the invite but when click the link to download the installer it says I'm not on an android phone..... Weird last time I checked my Evo was an android phone.
[EVO 4G General] tgeigel:
Now its telling me The email address and password is either incorrect or not in our system. I registered and activated it from the email, and still not working
[EVO 4G General] Pierceye:
I had the same trouble this morning. I was trying to do the install through Skyfire first and that was exactly the same thing it kept telling me. I switched over to the stock browser and it worked fine on the first try. My voice-to-text key doesn't seem to be working though. Anyone else see this problem?
[EVO 4G General] Tiffany84:
I signed up 6 months ago and Finally got the invite last night.

i had the same prob..jst go 2 browser settings and enable mobile view then i think some kind of way it recognizes it
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
They must have did a mass invite yesterday cause now I have the BETA too...
[EVO 4G General] ZeusIII:
I got the beta as well but sadly I have grown to love the gingerbread keyboard so much I can't make the switch. Its always nice to have the option though.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Just got my beta too but I've had swype since it was hacked just happy to have an "official" now.
[EVO 4G General] Jeremiah239:
I got mine today its awesome!!!
[EVO 4G General] stinkdified:
alright, well after much turmoil, i have gone back to the hacked version.

i was really excited to be part of the beta, you know, for the greater good, to make a great thing even better, etc, etc. i really do love the swype concept and the execution of the program (imho) blows slideit and the others out of the water.

background: i live in the states but work abroad often (currently in brazil) my phone service is obviously through sprint. rooted with fresh 3.4.whatever.

so i got the email and tried to install over wifi, okay, problems (to be expected).read through all eight pages of this post and tried all the methods. finally i realized (read, fifth post from the bottom) that the activation is based on your MEID. okay, so my phone has been in airplane mode ('cause i use skype to call over wifi). this dosn't allow it to authenticate properly. so i went ahead and connected to one of the networks down here just so i could get the MEID to register and it worked straight away.

now...at the plant we have VEVO coverage, at the hotel, we have no coverage. i did all this at work, and was finally happy to have it working all good. what do you know, we go back to the hotel, i pull out my phone, and SOL. nothing. bullsh*t. i can't deal with this, back to the hacked version.

maybe i'll try again when i get back to the states. but then i'm just going to have to leave again and have the same problem. geez...why does it have to be so complicated man

I had the same problem: the task manager was showing personal data at 80 out of 81MB. When I cleared the data for the web browser it dropped to using 7MB.

Clearing cache in the browser didn't help, I had to clear data for the app.

Of course that wasn't the first app I tried clearing data, but it was definitely the browser that was hogging the storage.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xoltrix2000:
Did you by any chance used the One-Click-Lag-Fix? That shaves about 1GB from your 1.8GB app storage. I had same issue until I uninstalled the LagFix.

Also, you can use MoveToSD app to move all your apps to SD, that saved me about 400MB of space. Note: When you are moving Apps to SD, the ignore the size difference, it still moves the data to SD. You can check your storage size after moving a whole bunch of apps.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingskidd268:
If you got root get the android terminal emulator then you su

#pm setInstallLocation 2

#reboot

that should move most of you app to sd. or you will have to manually do it but that should help.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kc1:
I gave this a go, but it didn't move any apps from "Device Memory" to the "USB Storage".

If there are 3 devices, does the numbering work like this:

0=galaxy tab's internal memory "Device Memory"

1=galaxy tab internal SD card "USB Storage"

2=user-insertable/external microSD card "SD Card"

???
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kc1:
Answering my own question:

1=galaxy tab's internal memory "Device Memory"

2=user-insertable/external microSD card "SD Card"

0="[auto] Let system decide the best location"

...but I wouldn't bother setting it to 2, because it prevents some important applications (like Google Maps) from updating: "Application cannot be installed in the default installation location android"

Idk i can't exactly say that i look the look of sense(hence i put a theme on it) but there is no doubt about it that sense is definitely professionally done. It seems like a lot of amateur themes seem well amateurish. Hope you can find a theme you like there are some that look cool. Tweetdeck is pretty cool too and doesn't look half bad either kinda blends with the stock look

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] occip:
Hi,

I'm planning to port the 2.6.32 linux kernel for the NC (or 2.6.35), by diffing with omap-zoom2. After that, it would be easier to port cynanogen froyo.

I would like to know if someone is trying to do this too, right now. Maybe we can share info/code about it.

Cheers

Occip
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thetoady:
I think one of the primary impediments for those of us who could help with the kernel side is getting a proper build environment setup, so while a shared software repo is good, I think it be great if you or someone else can share the environment they are doing their kernel builds in.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] axe2:
I'm working on getting setup to build either the omap froyo or cyanogen. I was leaning toward trying the omap version first, since that's already been shown to work, and then moving to cyanogen, but I could just jump into cyanogen.

It looks to me like the Droid is closest to the Nook Color, since it appears to have an omap processor. Does that sound right? I was thinking of using that as the starting point.

Thanks in advance

[7 Mozart Accessories] cpatto1:
Hey all... Im wondering if anyone happens to know of a clear-coat screen protector alternative for the Mozart... Ive used clear-coat on my last few phones and really like it but they still havnt made protector for the Mozart... Im looking for a similar protector with preference to using the spray solution for application as i find this way much easier to align it properly and get no air bubbles etc... Ive looked up ghost armour and bodygaurdz but these brands also seem to ignore the Mozart :( Any suggestions be much appreciated...

Martin Fields have launched their version of screen protectors for Mozart and I could see mobilefun selling them in UK.

hey,

I've now set up my HD2 on WinMo as I like it (stock 3.14, CHT 2.0), but am tempted to run Android, and have installed it for testing. Long term I only want one system though.

Can anyone out there suggest some alternatives for free software I use on WinMo:

Navicomputer: Brilliant and wouldn't want to live without it. Set up to download maps from Google maps, Open Street Map, Bing Aerial, Ordnance Survey on my PC, for excellent offline map access.

CHT: is there an android version? I've got the desire android build running with sense, love the control CHT gives you on sense.

Torchlight: control LED on back as flashlight

Excel: use it in the gym to keep track of exercises, any spreadsheet would do, pref excel though.

hey

take a look here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=852560

a bit more than you asked for, should cover your query tho. :)

edit:

not sure about navipanel alt, since i use copilot. (tho android market has a lot of free mapping apps)

no CHT for android, you can try launcher pro, much more customisable than sense

android sense builds have 'flashlight' app, for using led as a torch (can also dl from market)

excel isnt covered in that post, but take a look at documents to go, quick office or think free office (also google menshealth workouts for android & 'bodybuilder' app, they have some useful features & allow you to set up custom workouts)

This keeps your Desire HD or HD2 at a nice angle to read news/watch episodes while travelling or eating lunch :)

Take two old magnetic cards, tape together with 1-2 mm space, cut them like I did.

That's the best, compact stand, fits into the card holder/wallet with your other cards.

[HTC Aria General] CMage:
I tried to read the sticky notes and guides about "How to root a phone" or "How to install new ROM"...

But I could not find answer to some real basic questions like:

What are the differences between CM6.1, FR007 and R012? What are their andvantages and disadvantages compaired to each other?

Are there any regional or other limitations? (Expl: I can not use R012 in Europe)

What is the difference between rooting, liberating and unlocking a phone?

If my phone is provider independent do I have to root, liberate or unlock if I want to update the ROM? Do I need to do all of them or just some?

Most likely these are pretty obvious for most of you so please dont shoot me... :)

Thanks for the answers in advance...
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
Questions like these need to be asked in the General section. These are not Development related questions.
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
Yeah, but all of the threads related to his questions are in this forum, so I can see why he'd post them here.

To be honest, I'll be interested in the replies as well. I chose to go with CM6.1 because everyone said it was the most customizeable of the ROMs and that was what interested me. However, my battery life seems to be about half of what it was on the stock ROM and I'm not sure what's causing that. For instance, I charged my phone before I left for work last night, it was 100%, six hours later when I pulled it out for the first time, it was 79%. That seems like way too much drain for a sleeping device.

So I'm definitely open to switching to one of the other ROMs if there's good info supplied in this thread.
[HTC Aria General] tomtommy306:
Actually... The difference between cm6 and liberated is the sense UI. Rooting your phone means unlocking it to be able to do things you couldn't do with a stock rom. Which means you can flash another rom to it after Rooting.

Liberating is not the correct term. The FR00x Roms are code named LIBERATED.

I can't understand the problem in differentiating these things... The forums have been very informative. I rooted and flashed my Liberty/Aria twice the second day I had it. To each his own though...
[HTC Aria General] dandrumheller:
While this is arguably the most visible difference between CM6 and the Liberated ROMs, it isn't the only difference. CM6 offers significantly (at least IMHO) more features and customization capability than the Liberated ROMs, at the cost of what some feel is a nicer look, and some HTC proprietary features.

I have run quite a few iterations of the 2.1 Liberated ROMs, quite a few of the various CM6 ROMs (nightlies etc.), and one of the early Liberated 2.2 ROMs for a couple days. Personally after switching to CM6, the lack of custom options in the HTC based ROMs is no longer acceptable for me (thus my very short stay on Liberated 2.2). However, I like tinkering with my device, so CM6 fits my wants more than the Liberated series. Others certainly may not find the same thing.

As far as battery life goes, from my experience the ROM is less of a factor than usage patterns, to include location/cell signal strength issues. I have a fairly inconsistent usage pattern, due to varying demands on my time at my job. Sometimes I have lots of time to play with my phone, other times it sits in my pocket untouched all day, or somewhere in between these extremes. I also work in varying locations, some with better service than others. To try to monitor signal strength more accurately I run my signal strength indicator in db rather than bars (an option in CM6). Maybe it is because of my strange usage patterns, but I haven't seen any significant difference in battery life between any of the ROMs I have used. A couple of examples of my experience below:

1) work location 1, signal strength -65 to -80 db typical, 3g radio on all day, about 5% per hour battery drain with minimal browsing/no phone calls/minimal messaging.

2) work location 2, signal strength -70 to -90 typical, same usage as above with 3g radio on gets me about 10% drain per hour. switch to 2g only radio, back to 5% per hour or so. No clue why there is such a difference in battery drain with fairly minimal difference in signal strength (unless maybe it's reading strength of 2g svc, and 3g is coming from a weaker more distant location??)

3) recently attended a meeting in a concrete building - entered building at 8 am with 87% battery remaining, 2g only radio on. signal strength in building -105 to -110 db (basically no signal). break from meeting at 10 am - battery now at 51%. Checked battery usage stats - cell standby used 70 something % (can't remember exact number, but way high). Sent message to my wife to call me on my work cell phone (dumb vzw phone with battery that lasts all week) and put Aria in airplane mode. battery drain from 10am to leaving meeting at 5pm was a total of 3% (48% battery left when leaving)

While I didn't really give Liberated 2.2 a chance to really stabilize, I have run Liberated 2.1 and CM6 both long enough that I feel the battery performance on each are comparable.

Sorry for so much info in a thread not really aimed at battery life specifically....
