It'll also blur/unsharpen all graphic files system wide. No thanks.
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Hardly... If that happens, you're using the wrong ROM, and apps that aren't Gingerbread-ready.

I didnt upgrade my market and i used the old one last night and uninstalled/refunded 2 apps and was charged for both of them still.. I uninstalled within 1 minute of installing too..

rip.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I clearly see what I'm talking about in your screenshots. Resiziing the software DPI will lead to blurriness because it will be forced to push pixels out of the "pixel grid". And that's a fact. I'll keep my clarity.

1:1 200% enlargement:

Blurry.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
lol I like how were ignoring the fact that you guys are talking about having to change the resolution to use the market for an enjoyable, or at least semi enjoyable, experience.

That's pretty unacceptable in itself and pretty much proves what were saying, its too cluttered.

I'm just still confused on where to find the two new categories, live wallpapers and widgets. I don't see either no matter where I look.....what am I missing?
[EVO 4G General] EndlessDissent:
What I don't get is, why did they bother adding the third tab to the old market less than a month ago when they had to have the new market designed and near ready to launch at the time? Definitely wasted effort, imo, that could have been spent testing and improving the new market. And here, I was just getting used to using the third tab... such a tease.
[EVO 4G General] mastermayhm:
too slow for some reason
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
That is a good question, why was the time wasted?

I, also, am curious where the "widget" and "wallpapers" categories are as I do remember hearing about them.
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Looking at pictures on your computer screen, zoomed 2x != looking at the source image on your phone.

Unless you have a magnifying glass or beyond-perfect vision, you really can't see the blurriness to any extent that matters.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I saw it perfectly on my EVO when I tried it way back when. The fact is that changing the software DPI to a non 1:1 scale WILL lead to it blurring all raster graphics. You can live with that imperfection so why does it matter? I just wouldn't do it myself or recommend it to any one.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Whether it looks good or not, with the density change, it doesn't change the fact that you SHOULDN'T have to change the resolution in order to be able to have a usable market.

Also, what does that mean for the 90% (or more) of Android phones that have smaller screens than the EVO/Droids etc?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Carnivore9:
Hey guys, I just transferred here from the hd2 thread. Sold my hd2 with extended battery for a new black slide (coming in a week). All the phones I've had always have extended batteries and I've noticed the only one sold is the mugen 3200mah. It doesn't bother me that the battery sticks out but the design of the back case makes the phone 2-3x as thick. Any suggestions on this matter? Also I am thinking of doing usual root and cfw but I've never had a phone with a keyboard. Are the cfw landscape mode with keyboard out nice looking or is it stretched (ex. sense).
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Febby:
Oh no... why settle for MT3GS.... D: haha it isn't that bad of a device, I gave my brother my nexus one back for my Mytouch.. nexus one had a messed up touch screen IMO....
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Carnivore9:
well I'm not sure if I'll like not having a snapdragon but we'll see. Having the bigger screen on the hd2 was awesome but after trying to type quite a bit of emails, I decided it was in my best interest to get a keyboard.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] cingall:
Why did you choose a MT3G slide over a G2?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Carnivore9:
Well I need a plastic back to do a wireless charging mod so the slide works out. Also I kind of like the curved looked a bit more than the box look. Also I heard the reviews for the keyboard of the slide is better. Also I got the slide new on ebay for 200 with ship.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gabrialxue:
Mugen sells an 1800mAH battery that doesn't add any bulk to the phone, it runs for 40 dollars. Personally I dont really need an extended battery right now since I disabled my dataplan, but if you type a lot of emails and such you might like the extra battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fbl45:
Hello everybody!

A couple of weeks ago I bought a galaxy s from Germany with T-Mobile customization.

With Kies I updated it at 2.2 Froyo. This is the outcome:

PDA: I9000BOJPB

PHONE: I9000BOJP3

CSC: I9000GDTMJP6

Build Info: 2010. 11

As I live in Italy and my provider is Vodafone, I would like to get rid of the T-Mobile customization and possibly change the country code....

Can anyone suggest me how to make it possible?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Fosco

Safest way to use Kies Patcher and Kies

The easiest way, as I understand is to to use Kies Patcher to 'tell' Kies that you want the generic stock ROM for your region and let Kies do the rest through a reflash.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] digitalhater:
Hi guys!

Is there any way I could play Angry Birds on the android emulator on PC? My gf terrorize my HD2 and I have to recharge the phone 2 times a day!!!

Thanks for all your advices!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slackersink:
You could always search newgrounds or other such flash game sites and find similar style games if the emulator can't install apk's. Though, it wouldn't be a good emulator if it couldn't install apps.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Blubster:
I tried it myself, i installed Angry Birds in an emulator, it installed but graphics were screwed upon launch, because the emulator misses opengl ES extensions, which are required by Angry Birds.

In the mean time, this should interest you...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kaymado:
ahhh, i see you are in the right forum now!

now i really dont mind helping you, the thing is, i could have told you earlier!

NO, theres no way you can play on pc

nobody likes to have an angry bird (maybe only funny in uk) so be a nice bf and get her another phone this xmas :cool:

it will be kind of a present to you too, as you get to spend more time with your one
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danna2zoe:
Okay so my phone decided to do a force close on everything that i tried to do so I turned it off and tried to turn it back on again but all i was getting was the galaxy screen flash up and then it would turn black.

I flashed with Odin 3 times now and it says that it was successfull but when i go to turn the phone on it reboots and says that the data wipe has failed and then continues to flash the galaxy screen and then black. Can someone please help. I am a noob and haven't done anything but flash my phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcp877:
The answers you are going to get are to odin back to stock, however ive had this problem and to get past it I had to do a factory wipe all data in the recovery menu then it booted. You lose all data. Before you do that try cycling the phone through restarts with battery pulls, I had another issue where doing this kicked me into normal boot after about 18 tries. I'm no expert but this is how I got fixed. Mine was a busy box issue it was never installed right
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] in_dmand:
yeah, i agree w/ kcp about the battery pull... I would try this to see if you can get your system up and running, so that way you can dl Titatium Backup and Rom Manager. I had a problem on mine that would not let me reinstall packages and then it would never leave recovery, but after i pulled the battery, rebooted, and downloaded rom manager, i found that it was the same issue as kcp (busy box had to be updated). I don't understand why, after you re-flashed the Rom w/ odin it is not working.... did you flash 2.1 or 2.2? Remember, after you flash with odin you need to wipe data and chached memory, then reboot (maybe a battery pull). Try to give more info about exactly how you flashed w/ odin.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcp877:
Also my titanium says it downloads busy box but doesn't had to go get it from the market and put it in the x bin you might want to do the same when it boots to be safe.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danna2zoe:
How do i know if i flashed with 2.1 or 2.2? How do you wipe data and cached memory? I turned it back on after i flashed and it showed that it was rebooting and wiped the cached memory but the data wipe failed.

also, my phone is not unlocked

Update: I flashed with 2.2 but I did not know that it was for tmobile. I am with bell. Now i can't get it to go into download mode so that I can flash with the right rom. It also won't charge when plugged in. Am i going to have to just get a new phone?

I sent an email there but got no replies back.

hi guys

I've suddenly found very low internal storage space on my rafael(day before I had definitely more than 250mb free).I looked into the memory and found some strage files and folders-size around 250mb and with generated name (akalkjbgnylkads):DSD card is not affected.I've tried to install anti-virus program but it seem to be blocking registry.Also removing was unsuccesful("unable to remove" or "file has changed name.."

Is there a way to boot raphael somehow like normal PC to "emergency mode" (without loading drivers,apps...)?

Or any other ideas?:confused:

sorry for my english:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Armazia:
Well, I know that SPB Pocket Plus has a safe mode, you could try that. I don't know if its available in the free version.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
It sounds like your internal memory is corrupted. It happens rarely, but still, it does happen. You could try scanning the main memory with SK Tools (using storage card tool), but in all likelihood, you need to do a hard reset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] akpe:
Yup, same thing happened to me a while ago, had files and folders like these in storage card. Sadly, I had to format the card in order to get rid of them, so a Hard Reset will definitely work. Try with SK Tools first, just in case.

BABBELUTS 6.5 ROM (SPB MOBILE SHELL)

(this image is not the babbelut rom, the image is spb mobile shell on wm6.1 - babbeluts rom is wm6.5)

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] raving_nanza:
TO VIEW AND EDIT/EXTRACT THE CONTENTS OF A .NBH ROM FILE USE HTCRIE (HTC ROM IMAGE EDITOR)

download HTCRIE

this displays the contents of a rom, eg:

1) a whole rom is a .NBH file, a rom has parts, which are .NB files

*IPL

*SPL

*GSM/RADIO

*SPLASH

*EXTENDED ROM

*OS

usually when you download a custom rom, you only get the OS.nb inside the full .NBH

download GSM/RADIO.nb

* the radio rom does boost the signal but it depends on where you are located.

* a newer version of the radio rom doesnt exactly meen its better, so an older radio rom could be better than a newer version.

* for me i had better signal quality with an older version.

download EXTENDED ROM.nb

open Extended Rom.nb with HTCRIE (or add Extended Rom.nb to a .NBH)

now edit the config.txt and add your own .Cabs

Example

LOCK:Enabled

CAB: \Extended_ROM\Cab Name.cab

LOCK: Disabled

RST: Reset

SPLASH.nb is the startup image on device boot.

*dont get these mixed up with the WELCOMEHEAD.PNG or the ANIMATED.GIF also at startup.

SPLASH.nb is first image to be displayed (the image with the Red numbers and letters).

download (3 splash screnes)

OR TO MAKE YOUR OWN SPLASH.NB

download

1) Run the HTC Splash Tool

2) as soon as the "screen" changes image to the the the white HTC logo, click the "screen"

3) a window now opens, select the image you want to use as your splash

4) click the "trackball" on the HTC Splash Tool

check if its your usb cable.

2) charge the device untill green led

if you still have the constant red flashing led when charging the brand new battery.

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK

i will

not

, under any circumstances, be to blame if you break your device doing this so be warned!:

3) in my experience the pins on the device mini usb were not connecting properly to the mini usb lead (to the pc usb cable).

* the best way to "quickfix" this is to open the device and bend them back into place (inwards)

be carefull because these can break easily.

(not easy to fix when broken)

* you wont need to bend the pins much.

* unplug your mini usb and check that the pc mini usb cable goes into the device, its to check the pins have not been bent too much before putting the device back together.
