we might not have our own forum but can somebody start a newthread or two? Say one for problems (removed the wrong apps, can't get recovery to work, ect) and another for themes and rom development. Make sure to use the same key words in both so they are not hard to find. Also if some one could get all the recoveries and zip files posted in the beginning of the respected thread instead of randomly placed through out two main threads. Just a thought.

Edit: also post links at the ends of these threads so everyone knows what's going on and where to look. PLEASE LETS GET ORGANIZED. WE ARE ONLY SLOWING PROGRESS WITH THIS MESS THAT IS OUR COMMUNITY

Since i have used the amon ra now my rom manager will boot into recovery mode and seems like it is workin fine. Is this normal? I don't understand what changed and how its workin now.

S.I.™ ©®77
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vadimsof:
Thats because amon ra is a new recovery that you're installed... the command in rom manager to boot into recovery is just a command that reboots into currently installed recovery.what every recovery you will install, thats what it will boot into... its the same thing as holding vol up,send and then power button.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] selfinflicted1:

I've actually grown to like it like that :)

I believe the settings for those colors are in the progress_horizontal.xml - I might get around to making a theme with a green bar in those places instead.

I like the pink though, it's grown on me as nice bit of change.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Fodoom:
U mean with the gradient in the stat bar? It does look nice but I'm lazy and i am also very fond of the magenta bars. I show it off to my friends causing mass jealousy...

jk but really u can complain about noobs overrunning the thread if we actually had our own forum. But no one will listen to flamers so too bad.

On a less noobish point, my boss has had mass xp with linux kernels. Can someone tell me how to get a file or something useable that i can show him? He says there may be an easy way to OC this bad little phone. (That's why i started reading this thread anyway.)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] isaacj87:
No...

I'm not gone. I've been working on a custom kernel for the phone. Hopefully, 2.6.32. I'm having difficulty because there isn't a kernel source for this phone for ANY version. It's very annoying. Huawei has release sources for many of their other phones, but not this one.

The 2.6.32 kernel is VERY helpful in the development of Froyo. I'm thinking of abandoning my work on CM6 and just moving on to AOSP 2.2. I'd like to start stock.

when in booting into AmonRa. do we do Nand backup or Nand + ext backup?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] buby78:
first extract the files to your desktop hold volume down and the end key and tap the power button then plug you phone to your pc run the install-recovery-windows.bat its in the folder you extracted to your desk top wait a bit it took me like 2min. before it started but when it did it took like 1sec. hope that helps
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] clor01:

Can you tell me how to obtain information about this kernel, or tell me how to extract the files... i would like someone i know to take a look at it. There is no doubt that it would be beneficial to the progress of compiling a new kernel.

For some reason the stereo channels wouldn't mix correctly so I ended up only hearing certain parts of the audio.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] louforgiveno:
Does the phone headphone adapter support mic input?, you might need to find a 3 tip adapter that will provide mic & left/right audio (had this issue on an old winmo samsung w/ 2.5 mm jack)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iDavido:
Yeah, I have the right adapter. Do I need a headset with a mic? I'm currently using a normal pair of headphones with the adapter.

Having a small problem with Amon... Several of the options just give a weird error that I cannot find an answer to. Most of the options I choose (including the nand backup) tells me to run a script via ADB. I do that and it gives same answer. I can't even wipe dalvik... Is there something different that I might not be doing the right way?

Strange thing it partitioned the SD card..... at least something works.....

EDIT: My batt is full, tried to backup onto 3 different EMPTY sd cards all freshly formatted....

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cagarcia14:
any word on the 2.2 update?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supermario12312:
No.

An ext partition let's you move part of (if not all) of the Dalvik Cache to the SD Card, freeing up phone memory space. it also treats any unused space left from the Dalvik Cache to be used like internal memory for the phone, e.g., it tricks the phone into thinking the partition is part of the phone's internal memory. 2.1 AND 2.2 can use an ext partition too. I use it on my Mytouch 3G slide with Cyanogenmod6 (Froyo) because even with the Froyo apps2SD, I don't have enough internal memory to install all the apps I would like to, so I use an ext partition to expand my internal memory.

I dont mean to be rude, but next time, please do some research beforehand before commenting on such things.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blackthought:
No. You. No. You. Listen MR. Dude, I shoot from the hip, thats how I do. So you know of a way of using an ext partition on the sdcard to move apps or the Dalvik Cache using the stock Ascend 2.1 ROM? If so enlighten us, MR. IKNOWITALL otherwise keep that pretty mouth of yours shut!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supermario12312:
Unfortunately, I don't think you can until Cyanogenmod or some other custom ROM comes around. You could *try*, but don't come crying to me if it fails (which I'm willing to bet it will). If you do have the Amon_RA recovery, I suppose you could give it a shot. Ill give you a link to a post that could help you.

http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-791795.html

I'm only going to say this once: You cannot just flash this and follow the instructions to get apps2ext. You need to edit the boot.img too, and I have no idea how to edit it in a way to allow apps2ext. You send the OP of the link a pm asking him. But seriously, IT WILL NOT JUST WORK. I'm just hoping y'all can get some real community support like other phones have.

But maybe LinuxGeek or someone else could try to take this on. Again, I'm not a dev, hell I'm not even an owner of an Ascend myself. I don't know how you would get this up and running, but I'm hoping someone can.

YOU JUST GOT LEARNED!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blackthought:
And now to you see why I said what I did, of course you could hack it in to 2.1 but that feature is not native to 2.1 but it is native to 2.2. Some noobs where asking questions about the options available in Amon-RA, i didn't feel like writing them a novel, so I gave them a quick answer to there question, the backup option in question is useless for stock 2.1.

So keep your pretty little mouth hole shut.. trying to correct me...

And I didn't get learned anyone with half a brain can see that you are an idiot, and that I am too for arguing with you!

Also, look at my thanks meter, now look at yours, now back at mine, sadly yours is only at 1 :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supermario12312:
Again, no. Apps2ext is not native to ANY version of android. It was developed by hackers for 2.1, so that they could have apps on the sd card. Why would a feature to install apps to the sd card would be native to a version of android that already has a different way of installing apps to the sd card?

Now that's what I'm talking about, Willis.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ixbrettxi:
NP ^^
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blackthought:
You already know what I meant, stop trying to act like you know something everyone else doesn't. Stock Froyo allows you to install apps on your sdcard, stock 2.1 doesn't. The best way to do so is to partition your sdcard(ext) so that when you mount your sdcard to the computer, your apps don't stop working....

Just take this opportunity to rethink your life... Your goals and all that...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kaos1211:
Damn i thought this was meant for helping people. Not people arguing. Now calm down girls you are both pretty. Btw any news on 2.2

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supermario12312:
Uh, no, I don't know what you mean. FroYo allows you to install apps to the SD, and I do indeed agree with you that it is much more convienent to have an ext partition. But why must you resort to hostility? I'm not acting like I know something everyone else doesn't. It took me 5 minutes of research to find all this out. Instead of trying to attack someone on the internet, why not do some research instead? I'm just sayin' :3

And the apps2SD that is built into FroYo is not an ext partiton. Its FAT or whatever format the rest of the SD Card is.

Dude seriosuly, take a chill pill. There is no reason to exert hostilitity towards someone because they corrected you. I thought this was an Android forum, not the comments section on a CNET article.

@kaos LOL :D my thoughts (almost) exactly.

Because we have a fixed focus camera. Google Goggles requires autofocus in order to use, so what Google does is push certain Market apps to certain phones. You could try googling for a "hacked HVGA market" and make sure it states that it fake satisfies the AF requirement.

Why are you asking if root is still necessary? There is no reason to un-root your phone, at all unless you plan on taking it back for warranty issues. Other than that, there is no reason to.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wharmaster:
Actually, that's not what he's asking. He was asking if Titanium Backup and Mybackup were still necessary, or would become redundant with AmonRa.

I know how you got confused though, because at first glance it seems as though he was asking if root was still necessary. Especially if you're on your first cup of coffee, like me ;)

But on a positive note, I'm currently going throught U8150 kernel source code (2.6.32). The code for our device is in there, the tricky part is re-writing the code so that the kernel builds PROPERLY for our device. Like I said, besides touchscreen response, everything else works just fine.
