Everything is fine. The Dalvik cache is built upon first boot of a new system. You wipe it after installing a new rom to remove the remnants from the old one. You can wipe the dalvik as much as you want honestly, it's just going to make your next reboot take longer because of having to build the dalvik up again
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
Cool. Thanks. This whole flashing ROM's is pretty darn cool.
[EVO 4G General] dkelle4:
Welcome to the club!

Myn is a very popular ROM for good reason. Another popular ROM is CyanogenMod 6.1. It is missing 4G and HDMI at the moment, but the team is working on getting those included. A lot of people swear by it!
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
I have heard about CyanogenMod 6.1, but keep reading good things about MYN's Warm 2.2. So far so good:)
[EVO 4G General] dkelle4:
No need to change if you are happy with what ya' got!
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
I know a dude who has the Fresh ROM and when he turns his EVO to landscape and if he is ion Apps, they will turn landscape as well. That's really nice
[EVO 4G General] xfbo:
Addicting indeed!!! :D

I just flashed my first last week, I think I flashed my 4th ROM this past w/e but I wound up going back to the 2nd one. I've tried the following ROM's if you're interested??:

- MIUI (12.3) Awesome ROM, imho, but it was somewhat buggy still related to MMS, receiving voicemails and 4G no worky. :( It DOES have some really cool features built into it that most other ROM's you'd have to download the app for it's features.

- Evo NonSense (3.3) I really like this ROM too, somewhat similar to the stock but has a cooler look and like the way it navigates via ADW.

- Myn (RLS4) I liked this ROM but, honestly, was a little let down by it's simple layout, I think the hype I've been reading about Myn ROM's got me a little over anxious........lol.

- CyanogenMod (6.1) I think I had this one up and running the shortest, it didnt really do much for me but I will admit that I think I was in too grumpy of a mood possibly so I might try it again. The biggest reason for it's short lived existence is the lack of 4G, like a few others above.

I wound up going back to Evo NonSense just cuz I like the way it navigates around, the slide lock screen and overall look/appeal of it. I'm about to upload it's latest version.....:D

Man, thanks for that explanation, I was unaware of it's importance since I didnt know what it really did.

Not to raid the O/P thread but I think the answer might benefit him as well. One thing that I've noticed jumping around different ROM's is that I lose important information cached in my Apps. Is there anyway to recover that information from the back up and reinstall on a freshly installed ROM?

For an ex. I use PasswordSafe Lite to store all my important pw's and account info......I just noticed when I sync'ed up to AppBrain the information is gonzo.......is there anyway to avoid this from happening or backing it up or actually getting into a backed up copy to copy n paste that data in???

TIA!
[EVO 4G General] deathsled:
that's pretty normal. I don't think the early Sprint roms did that, but I think the later ones do. Also pretty much any other launcher you install will do the same thing.
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
I keep hearing about launchers (like launcher pro). What do they do and do you install them like a ROM? What is a good Launcher?
[EVO 4G General] aj4x:
They allow you to use a different launcher other than sense, which means you can customize it to your hearts content :) also you can do landscape mode which is what you are after. Launcher pro and adw are the most popular I prefer launcher pro but try them both out for yourself also they are both found in the android market which means you dont have to flash them like roms or kernels GL man :) if you need anymore help pm me bro
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
Thanks bro. I just dl'ed Launcher Pro. Will try it out. I do LOVE that loop scrolling. That's really cool

Edit: Quick question. One of the main things I like about HTC Sense is the Flip Clock with My Location and Temp. I don't see a Clock Widget for Launcher Pro. Is there a clock like this for launcher pro? thx
[EVO 4G General] Cy_n_ic:
You want fancy widget my friend. Sense style clicks for launcher pro. You can get it in the market.

Or even better go http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853832 there and get a cool themed one from the third post care of stoney 666!
[EVO 4G General] dvirus1023:
Titanium backup will backup all apps eith data so you can transition inbetween roms with little to no setup.
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
Thanks bro. Appreciate the help. I will check it out now
[EVO 4G General] xfbo:
Thanks a lot!
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
I used My Backup Pro and it backs up Apps and Data as well. It will backup to your SD Card OR their Servers
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
This ROM is eating battery quickly:( I have the 3500mah battery and as soon as I take it off of AC Charge it drops 5% in a matter of a couple of minutes and drops 10% in about 10 minutes. On stock it would take about an hour to drop 10% (this is all without doing anything). I am doing the same as before, nothing has changed other than I put on this ROM. Anyone have any suggestions?
[EVO 4G General] terrel_b:
Switch kernels to one of the ones Myn recommended. I'm on a netarchy version right now, but a lot of people have found success w/ Ziggy's.
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
I have been reading and will give it about 5 days to let the ROM set in.
[EVO 4G General] dkelle4:
Regardless of ROM, the EVO is set to charge to 100%, then stop charging, it lets the battery discharge to 90%, then charges back up to 100%. Its a way to make the battery's rechargeable life last longer. (Not the phones battery life, but the life of the battery itself.)

So therefore when you pull the phone off the charger it says fully charged, but its actually at anywhere between 100 and 90. So within a few minutes it will show the real battery %.
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
Last night I calibrated my battery according to this: http://home.comcast.net/~evobenchers/index.html

(Very Awesome site BTW) and today my battery is ALOT better. Right now I am at 5 hours unplugged and still have 85% battery left:)
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
I use upnplay with rockplayer and have found it to be hit or miss depending on the file. Some work really well, others not at all. My Xvid files seem to work pretty well, I tried an MKV and it was ok. I have a bunch of MP4 files that don't seek at all. I haven't really looked into it all that much yet.

Until something like the player in my little Archos5 comes around this is probably best we have for now.
[G Tablet General] vwvapor:
Thanks for the reply. Looks like that might be one of the few places where the Archos 101 has the Gtab beat.
[G Tablet General] ddarvish:
what software are you running on your computer as the server? i dont have a nas so need to find a server that is upnp compatible
[G Tablet General] vwvapor:
I actually have 3. Tversity, PS3 media server, and Orb. I don't actually turn on the media server feature for Orb, but I did try it with Upnplay, but that was the worst of all 3. Both Tversity and PS3 media server work about the same, but I get thumbnail previews with PS3 media server.

And before anyone asks why I have both Tversity and PS3 media server installed and running, I use the PS3 media server for...... drumroll..... the PS3, and the Tversity is for an old Dlink media player my son watches that doesn't work with the PS3 media server. :D
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
100% agree. The Archos media player is sweet. When I get time (never?) I really want to re-investigate this. So far I have not managed to port it, but I will keep trying.
[G Tablet General] vwvapor:
If anyone ever got that going, that would be sweet. Top notch hardware coupled with the best media player software = game over.
[G Tablet General] SpinKix:
Serviio

I'm running Serviio on WinXP.

For me, the server won't start on boot, and shows a pop up message "server not running". Probably because Java hasn't loaded yet.

Use a .bat file located in the bin folder to start it.

The console runs independent of server.

If you decide to try it, be patient during install. It appears to hang but it's loading Java 6 from the internet.
[7 Mozart General] idonxda:
Wow, just wait for genius chef if they can make this device capable of running android. Not sure how can we invite them to start working on this.

Can we all make a combined request to great chefs of Android as they made it possible for HD2 so nothing is impossible for them.
[7 Mozart General] GenkaiMade:
I have to ask: why would we possibly want Android when we have WP7? Surely we would all have bought Nexus S' if we wanted Android :S
[7 Mozart General] djfuego:
Wrong answer.

This is the "Because we can" argument. It's a waste of time. I've been following Android on the HTC diamond and It's not practical purely down to the power management. It just sucks the battery down to nothing after 20 minutes.
[7 Mozart General] Aerox912:
Since this phone uses android like hardware that could maybe not be the thing on the mozart, but even so.

I totally agree that it is a waste of time
[7 Mozart General] ds4:
I want to see Android!! I was not able to purchase the HTC Desire HD... this was the best i could get. So why not have the option to play around....
[7 Mozart General] djfuego:
.....*Sigh*

even if you do get android on the Mozart. Do you honestly think Microsoft will let you use the live functions on it after you have. It won't surprise me if you get an xbox live ban if you piss around with this generation of phones.
[7 Mozart General] Original Android <3ers!:
I want a phone that can duel boot WP7 and Androd.
[7 Mozart General] ds4:
i don't really care about what M$ will limit me on... i don't use xbox live anyway... just want android.
[7 Mozart General] GenkaiMade:
Then why the hell did you buy a WP7 phone?! And just so that you know, "M$" went out of fashion like 10 years ago, and just makes you seem like a bit of a stuck up idiot.
[7 Mozart General] FrozenLord:
...well, I guess this is reason enough to go buying a WP7 phone and trolling in a forum on how great it would be to have Android on the WP7.

Just a thought: it might seem stupid to you and the answer might even be obvious to everyone but me, but why didn't you buy an Android phone to start with?

- You'd then have an Android device right now

- Would not lose your warranty when you use Android (as you most likely will on WP7 as it will require unlocking or flashing)

- Would not be limited by Microsoft in any way

So maybe I'm missing some point here, but feel free to enlighten me ;)
[7 Mozart General] idonxda:
Well, I have no doubt on your opinion, in fact most of the people would have same opinion, Don't you think its a very simple thing that one can't miss, if we want android then go and buy android,

but according to me there are two ways to live life, one simplest way and second to go beyond limit and do something different.

if we buy android then there is near to impossible to enjoy windows 7 but if we have wp7 then there is possibility to enjoy android and that's in bl** single device wow. no need to have two sim two phone to enjoy life.

After all that's my desire that One day Chef will come and listen to us.
[7 Mozart General] phoenixtraveller:
I think he means like MAGLDR on Mozart = DUAL BOOT Android and WP7. Or quadruple boot WM6, WM7, Ubuntu, Android as I am doing here on my HD2 which works on LIVE and Marketplace ACTIVE as a HD7.

Android on mozart would be interesting. Reasonably easy to do once bit more work with ansar's work and his spl upgrade/hack maybe (global branding removal) + htc rom image editor etc and debug. It will happen.

Older phones as mentioned in this thread+droid=sux. HD2+Android (espeially Magldr+Darkstone SUPER-NAND RAM-build on Nand=AMAZING).

But yes- it is EASY to get around LIVE activation: read HD2 threads: and no Magldr 1.12 loads a simulacrum SPL for WP7 from nand yaffs which straps WP7 partitions so there is no real way that Microsoft can lock your phone down. Its LIVE!
[7 Mozart General] iwantnokia:
you are wrong..... Microsoft will know which phone been modified from HD2 by using hardware id..... muahahaha.... you are using illegal OS....
[7 Mozart General] sinzim:
Afaik Mozart is the only handset with a 1ghz+ CPU and a Xenon flash that is "potentially" capable of running android, that fact alone makes it worth modding on imo. Would be fun to see if someone got it working, but right now I'm hoping the motoroi 2 will come out soon =)

Edit: And about legality - many countries (like norway) have laws that forbid EULAs that restrict using other software on your hardware, effectively nullifying that concern
[7 Mozart General] Gizmo_x:
im looking for experiment like this, run android on mozart or any wp7 phone.
[7 Mozart General] GStar01:
Would be great, but i think there isn't a big community for Mozart 7, and special for Android on Mozart :(

your live id is stored in the phones registry

If you are running androind there is no access to that

How could microsoft ban you, magic?

Running androind i would have thought it's pretty clear you wont have access to live functions
[7 Mozart General] [BT]Black V:
but aside from that.

Running custom roms are 'fun' and it's why these forums exist
[7 Mozart General] NightOrchid:
Why would you even want Android in the first place. Its years out of date, the apps, paid and Free, consist of adverts, pop ups, add screens. you cant turn off Google maps and silly ads which consumes 60% of your phones resources and battery life.

I owned both a Wildfire (FROYO) and a Glaxay S(Gingerbread), and what a waste of money they were, but You can buy an unlocked 2nd hand Glaxay S for about £150 now, just go get one of them, in fact, here in the UK, CeX stores have racks and racks of 2nd hand Android phones, I had to hunt for my beloved Mozart.

Android is just full of fart machines, talking slapping cats and mindless apps from any man and his dog.

WP7 (OS: 7392) is beautiful, the apps are intelligent and useful, and the best thing is, I can walk into work without someone asking me if i Downloaded the latest farting cat from the market.

MS will never allow Android, because they have more sense.

Night
[7 Mozart General] [BT]Black V:
yeah windows 7 has plenty of farting kat apps, just not as many

it has apps with ads, just not as many

just as android has less apps than iphones

its just a time thing

[Epic 4G Accessories] dito33:
Is anyone tried mini bluetooth keyboard from ebay its so confusing that it would work or wouldn't. I asked some sellers some say it will work some will not work, one one seller posting says it would not work with Android 2.2 Any input on this issue I appreciated.

dito33
[Epic 4G Accessories] othan1:
I don't think it will work with our phones. From what I understand, we have BT 2.1 but HID enabled BT is 3.0 at least.
[Epic 4G Accessories] TWO515TY:
No, the problem is just that Android doesn't have proper drivers for HID. I've been using bluetooth keyboards forever on my old Windows Mobile devices, so I know it's not a problem with bluetooth version. More importantly, no bluetooth keyboard would even benefit from the BT 3.0 spec - 2.1 is just fine. This is true (as far as I know) for all Android devices, except maybe for the Galaxy Tab, where Samsung may have taken time to make bluetooth HID drivers. Not 100% sure on this, but last I saw, Android doesn't natively support bluetooth HID.

It's a shame too - these large screened, high-res devices (especially the EVO with it's built in kickstand) would make great note taking, IM/email devices when paired with a portable keyboard. Would be a great notebook/netbook replacement and/or supplement.
[Epic 4G Accessories] dito33:
So buying me one of those mini bluetooth keyboard is not gonna do any good for me, some vendors saying specifically android on their title, and one vendor responded that yes epic and evo will work, or its just a scam.

dito33
[Epic 4G Accessories] bitbang3r:
There's a company that sells a thirdparty app to use Bluetooth SPP profile keyboards on most Android phones, but most new Bluetooth keyboards only do HID. HID should work on the Epic when CM6 is ready, but it's unlikely to ever work on an Epic w/stock ROM.

Hey, spxc.

I´m really curious about how far can you go with this project. As I assume my Elfin and me are going to be still together for a long time, I wish the best of lucks to you.

GReetings!
[Touch GSM General] spxc:
yes, ill have to trim down the RAM use of of 2.2, because elfin dosen't have too much RAM and CPU speed, or it might be laggy :/ du know anyone that can support me on this one? as an developer? thanks for your support :D
[Touch GSM General] Panchiron:
No idea, I´m sorry. I thought that you were part of the WingLinux project, so maybe there you can find support.

Good luck.

[G Tablet General] claudioita:
HI,

Just received the Gtablet today.

It does not connect with Wifi at home. I have static IP with encryption. I setup wifi settings t owork on static IP but it does not connect (it does try to)

My HTC desire with froyo 2.2 connects no problem, so also other 3 notebooks with windows that I have.

Any idea why.
[G Tablet General] cscotty:
Have you established a connection to the router first, and then tried to set the static IP or are you first setting up the connecton on your routher using the MAC address for your tablet? I find that when connecting to my router and assigning a static IP that it works best when I first connect and have the DHCP server assign it, and then I go in and manually change it to static.

How are you configuring the setup?
[G Tablet General] claudioita:
nothing worked.

I installed TNT 2.40 then a little apk called wifi static. Set it up, and voila it worked at first try
[G Tablet General] cscotty:
Glad it worked out. I should be instaling TNT tonight once I get my tablet swapped. How difficult/extensive was installing the ROM? I've rotted my MyTouch3G, G1, and my HTC Evo and they were fairly simple. Is it similar?

Thanks,

scott

[Droid X General] m3n00b:
So about 2 days ago I threw some songs onto my DX and ever since, it won't let me change usb mode back to charge only. It says it's set to charge only but when I plug it into the pc usb port I can browse as if it were mass storage. This is a problem because I've lost pictures and songs in the past by having it set to this option. It also takes forever to scan the entire 20GBs of storage I have on there after each disconnect making my phone pretty much unusable for an hour. Anyone know where else I can set the USB mode aside from the drop-down?
[Droid X General] zanix:
I had a problem with the phone never being able to be set to Charge Only and I finally figured out what it was.

I had WinAmp installed on my phone and there is an option to auto-mount when USB is connected, this setting takes effect even if the phone is set to Charge Only.

So if you have WinAmp, or another program that does an auto-mount on USB connect, find out which program it is, and un-set the option
[Droid X General] vudugan:
Didn't want to make a mess of this issue but I had noticed this since the OTA Froyo update...

I just got a G2. perm rooted it. and everytime upon booting up it has signal for 1 second then literally just disappears and never comes back. can't choose mobile network or anything because it can't search for it. tried doing *#*#infor#*#* and it says GSM ONLY and everytime i try to change it to WCDMA PREFERRED it keeps reverting back as soon as i exit. the only way i've been able to get signal back so far is to connect to wifi and enable wifi calling, then after disconnecting i'm able to get signal and i'm able to check the WCDMA PREFERRED option but awhile ago i was on wifi calling then left my house and it was disconnected but wasn't able to get signal again.

can anyone help me with what i should do because although i might be able to get it back through wifi calling, this will be very problematic whenever i'm not near my normal wifi locations...
