I think this may work, not too sure as I haven't used the feature yet, but on google maps, go in to menu>more>lab>bubble buttons, this is in a beta phase.
[Desire HD General] kpf16:
Just enabled all the Google labs features and they are good. However that was noty point. I want to be able to use the call tab in stared places for contacts I have manual added eg my sisters address. Even when I link it Ty maps contact is doesn't enable the call tab. This feature only works for stared items added from internet search which have a contact number in culled on the review eg mc Donalds in London.
[Desire HD General] RaindancerAU:
Great idea! Please submit a request to Google so they may consider sorting this out in a future version of Google Maps :)
[Desire HD General] Basil3:
I don't really understand when this feature would be useful. Are you saying you want to go through Google Maps > Starred Items to call a contact? Why not just go into your contacts and call them?
[Desire HD General] kpf16:
Just want to know how to do it.

please help me...

give me solution , my x10 eclair too laggy when i used live wallpaper,

i dont want use jit, any solution??
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geraerb:
Hi,

I don't seem to have any problems when using live wallpapers.

But there are some that request more system resources then others.

Which launcher are you using ?

The stock one, ADW, ...

Have you tried other LW's ?

What you also can do, is install a program that monitors you're free RAM. (Mini info is nice)

Perhaps you have to many widgets or programs that eat away you're memory and cause the lag.

Hi all,

I'm going on holiday to South Africa and would like to use my DHD for navigation whilst I'm there however I don't want to incur any data charges if I need to download the maps. I've read on some places that you can pre download the maps somehow, how do I do this ?

Thanks,
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
Firstly, remember that you have to pay for navigation...

What you do is load Locations, then press "Show on Map" at the top.

Then press the menu button and select "Upgrade"

Then move to the Navigation tab (2nd one) and select South Africa and pay for however long you need it for. It should then download the map and everything it needs in advance.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leppie:
You can download them from the phone, but there is a charge. IIRC around $6.99 for 3 month usage.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkieSA:
Thanks for all this information. I think I might be confusing myself, you have mentioned "Locations", I thought this was an app to find restaurants etc. however I've opened it now and noticed that you can navigate using it, what is the difference between this navigation software and the Google Maps Navigation software. I was under the impression the Google Maps Navigation software was free or am I getting them mixed up.

When I load "Locations" I see "Powered by Route 66" everywhere ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
Google maps is free, but downloads the maps as you go - therefore, data costs would be incurred.

Locations is HTC's own navigation app, which pre-loads your maps but you have to pay for the navigation (though regular maps are free).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
You have to pay for voice navigation, although you could download the maps before you leave and get a short term subscription eg one month for cheap.

You can get directions without voice free though. Just gotta download the maps.

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
Directions, yes, but not turn by turn navigation. Might as well print directions off from full Google maps...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Except if you do that you wont get a real time updating display showing your current location, and the directions won't update themselves when you make a wrong turn.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eozen81:
So can not we use any navigation apps in a different country to guide us as free with Android liek TomTom or IGO My Way (as I am using free in Iphone and only drains GPS data no romaing)?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wil-j:
As I understand it, the gps navigation works fine without data connection. You just should download the maps for the location your going to beforehand (or at a free wifi) so you don't get data charges. The part you pay for in the navigation app is the voice guide, wich IMO is pretty useless.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkieSA:
That is exactly what I wanted to know. When I get to South Africa I'm going to want to pull my sim card out of my phone to avoid been charged for any accidental data that might be downloaded as when I'm roaming in South Africa T-Mobile charges £7.50 a MB !!!!!! Question is will the navigation work without the sim card, I would like to think that it will only require GPS.

I'm going to do some testing here before I go, I will download the maps then pull the sim card out and see if it works.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eozen81:
MarkieSA, let us know the test results for Locations.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
Isn't that the whole point of satnav? You're not just paying for the voice...you're paying for the turn by turn navigation. Without it you're just looking at a map. There's no directions (other than the list, which is hard (and illegal) to read when driving).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amm009uk:
I'm not in your league gents but using your build on HD2. I tried out this new Locations app and noticed it can build a route but the current location did not move along with my drive. I havent bought/paid for anything yet. I'm assuming once I do then the recalculation and the pointer will move with current location. Need to know cause DHD is arriving in the next few days:)

I'd leave your SIM installed and use a widget to disable the APN. I use Curvefish widgets.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Basil3:
For what it's worth, I recently took my car on the ferry from the UK to Ireland, so decided to use the pre-loaded Ireland maps to navigate my way to my destination.

I found that Locations worked ok, once it had a GPS lock, but found it difficult to find the perfect zoom level to look ahead to upcoming turns, while still seeing where I was. Basically I was looking down on myself on a map, whilst trying to follow the route drawn out on the map. It was nowhere near as using Google navigation with data, but it was adequate. I would have found it a lot easier if I had someone else in the car yelling out directions, as I was concentrating enough driving in the dark with the rain lashing down!

P.S. You don't need to worry about data charges while you're away, just make sure data roaming isn't selected in your Wireless and Network settings.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkieSA:
Right then I'm back from my holiday and this is what happened. Before I went on holiday I pre downloaded the South African maps using HTC locations and bought navigation for 30 days in South Africa.

When I got to South Africa I took out my T-Mobile sim card and inserted a local operators sim card with no data plan, when I fired up HTC locations and went to navigation it said to me that my maps were not up to date and it had to download the latest maps :mad: As I had a sim card in that had no data plans it did not work. After a few days I was in a WiFi hotspot and thought I would try and get this working again, I downloaded all the updated map data etc however after that the phone struggled to pin point my location. I tried again a few times after this then gave up.

Hey!

I want to sync the DCIM folder with my Dropbox/Photos folder.

Problem: FAT doesn't support symlinks.

Is it possible to set up one ext2/ext4 partition for the Data & APP2SD and one fat32 for media exchange?

As there's no /etc/fstab in Android the filesystems have to be listed somewhere else. Does anyone know where? Or is there a fixed pattern which partitions are used?

Is there a solution for moving the journalling of ext4 to the internal memory? Afaik this would increase speed.

i've had 2 android phones before, i must've flashed roms 50+ times in the past nevertheless im paranoid enough to always follow procedure by confirming on written step by step instructions. just now with this new evo i bought a couple weeks ago im having problems flashing roms, im positive to be unrevokedly rooted forever with full nand acces. tried cm6.1 got message "cant symlink" "error line 31" process aborted. retried unsuccesfully, redownloaded rom, retried failed again, tried other roms like virus and bakedsnack every attempt unsuccesful with SAME error. of course i performed a nandroid backup which i've been trying to restore since the first failed attempt but though it completes seemingly without problem phone gets stuck on "htc evo 4g" screen. i use amon ra recovery 1.8.0, always careful to have enough juice. have hboot 2.0.2 S-off. help me, pretty please.

Im new here so i cant post links, we're concerned only with the :

"PC36IMG_Recovery.zip" that's in the thread.

got this after 6 hours researching all internet. it seems many of our new EVO'S require this custom RA recovery to flash roms or restore nandroids; just rename it to PC36IMG.zip, place it in sdcard, power off, start fastboot, wait a few seconds it will prompt you for installation, press up volume for yes, when its done choose reboot. after that its flashing as usual yipay!:D

The camera is working fine...unless I try to go to the gallery...stopped unexpectedly message again. I have also tried going to Manage Applications and Force Closing. It seems to not be running. I have cleared data, cache and defaults.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it...but the timing is aligned. Today, I tried to add a Picture Frame widget to a home screen. I was not able to add it. My phone went funky for a minute, then went about it's business...only to start giving me the unexpected message a little later.

[Desire Themes and Apps] str355:
to revert back to standard for whatever rom you are using (without nandroid restore), you will need to pull the framework-res.apk from the original Rom.zip (along with any other files in your theme.zip).

you can either flash them back as an update in recovery or ADB push them back to the phone.

Or reflash the rom without a wipe, don't use this method if you have made changes to /system other than the theme since those will also be lost.

[Galaxy Tab General] ruspa:
You're right, no power switch so it will drain your battery out if you don't hack it a little bit, for instance removing the +12v pin and wiring that guy to the car's key-switcher +12v cable. Most newer car, like my Mito, has the [switcher] iso cable not connected, same thing for reverse gear indicator, open doors.. all of these things are now travelling on the CAN bus, so there are some interfaces available (not that expensive 10~20 euro) to extract those key-switched +12v, and all the other stuff.

@ruspa the man in the video can control de audio with the SWI

It's a brilliant IDEA, I would love to do the same on my car, maybe when I earn enough funds. In my car I would need the home dock from samsung.

Does you have any idea about the possibilities of the 30 pin connector, to pull out audio, an usb plug, and how to put rear cam video? I know that's not pdmi standard connector.

Do you know(or anyone else) where can I find the 30 pin connector schematics?
