No Russian language

Does not show Russian language as available on my ATT Captivate. It's probably the same issue as other keyboards which rely on "Supported locale" which Android OS returns.

Is it possible to ignore this and still make it available for use?
[Android Software Development] CosmicDan:
Great! Thank you! Works well on my Wildfire with SUnAaBh v1.1 ROM (Froyo/v2.2.1).

My question though - is there some way to make the "height" of the overall OSK smaller? I've noticed it messes around and pushes with some GUI elements, whereas original OSK did not do this. Any other Wildfire users see this? Maybe it is ROM specific? An easy example is creating a new APN, when you go to enter the name it looks quite squished. Screenshot:

It appears to be the prediction/suggest bar doing it. Original <2.3 OSK had "floating" suggestions and wouldn't push the UI up.... I think?

EDIT: Will be going back to original QWERTY for now I think... but will keep an eye on this =)
[Android Software Development] antonio1475:
I had the same problem (Keyboard too high), so I contacted vovkab (the developer) and he was very nice helping me to make a smaller version of this keyboard. Now I'm really happy.

He knows about it, although I won't send it without his consent. If you want, I can ask him to send to you (or you talk to him), although he didn't post the smaller version. I don't know if he will agree.

:)
[Android Software Development] vovkab:
Sure, share it here, maybe someone find it useful.

GingerKeyboard r12 for Small Screen devices (like Wildfire)

Great! I didn't really expect that! :) So here it is:

-Based on r12 (didn't need r15's ones and r19 doesn't have languages I need)

-Much lighter (1.7 MB I don't know why...)

-Has a little problem: on numbers screen (when you click 123 to change keyboard to the numbers keys, in "&" key it shows "&a". Weird... but not a problem at all :S)

· I guess somebody will think it may bee too small, but when you have a small screen, you can't have a big keyboard...

All credits go to vovkab, and thanks again! :)

I don't know how useful will be here, in a post.

I AM SORRY, I FIRST UPLOADED AN APARENTLY NOT SMALLER VERSION. NOW IT'S THE RIGHT ONE.
[Android Software Development] Meadow:
Installed easily on my EVO. Works great.
[Android Software Development] CosmicDan:
vovkab and antonio1475, thank you very much for the modified version!
[Android Software Development] antonio1475:
It was a pleasure!! :)

Little Bug(?) REPORT:

I am on version r19. And i enabled German and the English keyboard. I usually have set it to German and when i type and i press the "?123" to see the numbers layout it occasionally switches my language back to English...that is really annoying...doesn't happen when i am on the English layout ...

Someone got a fix for that?
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
But I posted in android general and nobody answered. So I'm trying here.

Ok. So I'm a noob when it comes to android for the most part. My question is, why are there different styles for the Eclair Stock launcher? The N1 had an app button with the page switcher dots. Then there is the cartoonish style app drawer like on the Samsung intercept. Then there is the app drawer that's solid dark gray like on the OG Moto Droid.

Sent from my Epic 4G in The Chaotic Void.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
The n1 is aosp android. Plain as it gets with no ui overlay. The samsung uses touchwiz which is their own ui. Htc has sense. Moto has blur. Its really just each manufacturers styling and thoughts of what android should look like.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
So even the "home" launcher on my phone( epic) isn't what stock eclair looks like? Also, then why does the intercept(on 2.1) have a different style pull up app drawer than my epic if both are by Samsung?

Sent from The Chaotic Void.
[Focus General] TJMJT:
I was just curious if anyone has any thoughts on Gingerbread on a Samsung Focus? I read that the Nexus S with the recent Gingerbread installed is the identical phone. I am very happy with Phone 7 and have no intentions of switching but the possibility could give us all much more value with the Focus. The thought of Gingerbread on this phone may also add to the longevity and a market value if someone wanted to sell it before their contract is up. I love phone 7 and hope they start some regular updates to make the phone even better.
[Focus General] ITDRAGON:
Yep.. it's called the captivate LOL ;) and probably not because it's a 3 button phone, kinda why HD2's and other window mobile phones are not upgradable
[Focus General] Aaron McCarthy:
on a side note.... the HD2 is upgradable... they've successfully put windows 7 on it. The only catch so far is it doesn't have the correct licencing so it isn't able to have working live tiles or the marketplace. But none the less.... its on there working.

I dont think anyones been working on Android on our phones yet. First thing's first is to get WP7 cracked open totally then they can do their magic. That's still a ways off though.
[Focus General] hvbelton:
If you want android on a phone, how about you buy an android phone and not clutter wp7 areas.
[Focus General] ITDRAGON:
last time I check the gps, camera, and... something else didn't work but to add live tiles not working on top of that... what's the sense?
[Focus General] Aaron McCarthy:
well work in progress...considering they said WM7 wouldn't be able to run at all on any other devices Id say its a pretty huge step. Probably the only WM phone that can do it and do it well. Android still doesn't work fully on my touch pro 2 but I kept that phone just for that reason that one day it WILL be able to run it.

the HD2 can run android (almost full), WM 6.1/6.5, WM7 and I think they were saying they're starting to work on getting webos on it too so, pretty stellar phone I would say!

Still, like I said, I think android running on our phones is still a long ways a way. They only just recently cracked one of the HTC WP7's to be able to run other roms. Big step for sure but still a far cry from running an entirely different OS
[Focus General] ITDRAGON:
Yeah well considering I use the GPS, and camera a lot, and live tiles now that I have it. I wouldn't consider that close lol That 4.3 screen is just awesome for TomTom. I'd rather use my HD2 as an android device before a windows phone 7. Web OS might be interesting though...:D aah so little time some many possibilites. Another problem is the Focus is only a 3 button phone, I duno if you can rework Android to work on 3 instead of 4.
[Focus General] thegarmac:
Thanks for the useless comment. This is a legitimate question. Not all of us want to spend the money on every different devices. I'd like to be able to run android for testing on the Focus if it was possible. Nothing wrong with that question.
[Focus General] hvbelton:
Then post the useless inquiry the android section and waste their space:cool:

[Streak 5 General] sn707:
Dang I tried it on my Streak and my MacBook and it is coming up "Invalid Version"

Are you running at&t if so then thats the reason but there are ways to get to 2.2 if you want to :)

Repair using PC companion. Maybe a software glitch.
[XPERIA X10 General] aussiesausage:
nope still no go didnt work

this never happened with 1.6, theres lot of reports of this happening with 2.1 though

:(
[XPERIA X10 General] metcard:
Remove the battery, remove the sim card and clean contacts, remove memory card and clean contacts, wait 5 minutes and put everything back together.

If nothing works, just use your warranty.
[XPERIA X10 General] Sighx:
I use to get this once awhile..... not so often with the new aosp firmware (mainly cause I haven't been using it the same way I use to.....) but I use to get what you got too. Never able to fix it.
[XPERIA X10 General] aussiesausage:
what firmware are you using now? have you got link please?
[XPERIA X10 General] Sighx:
Same FW everyone is running on. The AOSP 2.1 ROM 007a. Check in the development section
[XPERIA X10 General] aussiesausage:

i installed rogers 1.6 ( even though im in AUS lol ) and its working fine now.

i wonder if it would be the same on rogers 2.1
[XPERIA X10 General] rogem_kk:
Rogers doesn't mess much with the FW so worth a try to update to 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 General] aussiesausage:

its not where nere as bad as it was before, it only happens about 5 mins into a phone call, i can actually charge my phone, play game ect and it doesnt reboot
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phk:
I was flashing my friends HTC Magic 32A to put a new recovery, hboot and Radio.

My hboot was 1.33.2010

Radio was 6.35.08.29

When I was upgrading the Radio from 6.35.08.29 to 6.35.10.xx (i flashed an update.zip with AmonRA recovery) the flash went OK and then it said: "Reboot to complete upgrade"

So I rebooted, and this image appeared:

And now nothing else shows up. Not fastboot, not recovery, nothing. Just this damn icon.

I heard that the solution could be to put a new update.zip on the SDCard, and let the installation of new Radio continue...

Afterall, this update for Radio was an update(3mb), not a complete Radio (20mb)...... But i really don't know what new update.zip to use...

<EDIT> Nope, changing the update.zip file doesn't work either....

Thanks to anyone who helps...... I'm really sad about this... :(

im thankful for your advices :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Sir; to be able to run Android you need to have minimum Radio 2.08.50 or higher.

My personal favorite is Radio 2.15.50 ore 2.12.50

You can find the Radio collection here.

i have the 2.12.50 radio now, put the rom u prefer on my sd card and when i start to run the rom, it turns off, on and gets in the htc screen (white screen, htc in green) and nothing else happens anymore...is that normal?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
You're welcome sir; enjoy.

EDIT: Sorry I didn't read your previous post totally.

Yes sir it's normal that your first Android boot takes a wile (+/- 20-30 min)

Bu did you also insert a data.img file on your Android rooth?

i took out battery and started again and now it came till orange logo...it seems its working ill just wait a bit longer and well see :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Sorry; like I mentioned before I didn't read your previous post completely.

It's normal that your first Android boot takes a wail.

Normally you need to have one folder on your SD "android" and in this folder all files extracted.

Also using the data.img is recommended.

and yes; the kernel is build in.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H-KaN:
so i have to download 512mb data for my phone and the android folder? and both on the sd card? or the img data inside the android folder?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
You can use the 512MB ore the 1GB date.img file, (Personally I use the 1GB)

Ow; no mater witch one you take, it need to be set into the android folder. ;)

well it was a 4gb card but i dont know which class and im not gonna look for it. the comming days ill get my 8gb class 6 card and then im gonna try it again...just to make sure will it work well with this stats:

ROM: Stock 3.14.407.2 (04666) GER

Radio: 2.15.50.14

HSPL: 2.08 HSP

i hope it will work well with this stats.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Attention:

It's very important to remove HSPL in combination with the latest stock ROM (3.14).

using HSPL in combination with stock ROM 3.14 cause lot of problems and instability. so remove HSPL.

And yes stock ROM 3.14 is compatible with Android. (HSPL isn't needed for Android.)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H-KaN:
good to know that. thank you. ill remove hspl later and i guess i should do it with sspl then. i just hope my class 6 card will be delivered today. thank you for your advices and help. :)

can i leave it like this and everything will work fine with android? i dont know what to do...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Radio 3.03 ? I suggest you mean SPL 3.03.

Re flash your stock ROM 3.14 again; this will upgrade normally your SPL version.

If it don't change by flashing over ActiveSync; try to flash over SD.

Personally I don't think that your SPL 2.08 version will caused a problem; but maybe its better to have SPL 3.03 in combination with stock ROM 3.14.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H-KaN:
yes my fault i mean spl 3.03...with activesync not working im gonna try out with sd...thanks sir...ur such a great help :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
If flashing over SD is to complicated you can do also this:

- Flash a previous stock ROM 1.66/1.48 over ActiveSync.

- Flash stock ROM 3.14 again over ActiveSync.

[Galaxy Tab General] xoltrix2000:
I recently got a hold of a Samsung Captivate and was amazed on how smooth and snappy the phone was, but couldn't help notice that it was faster than my Tab at stock. I mean apps were loading instantly and the browser running at lightning speed.

I compared the Captivate to different firmwares that I was using on my Tab, such as XXJM6 and JPJK2 which are the most recent ones.

Is it possible that the firmwares are still not fully optimized for the Tab? I thought most of the hardware was almost the same across all the Galaxies? I'm just concerned that maybe my Tab is defective.

Note: Forgot to mention that Market is also very slow to load in comparison too. It's instant on the Captivate without lagfix on both devices.
[Galaxy Tab General] vamp6x6x6x:
Now, I have a Samsung Vibrant and a Galaxy Tab and I have to admin there is little notices such as the market slower a lil bit slower on the tab, but other then thatthe tab is over all smoother then the vibrant.

Oh and in case this ever comes up both the Vibrant and Tab I have are stock.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
One thing to bear in mind is that both the Tab and Galaxy S use the same processor and GPU. However, due to the increased resolution of the Tab, it is throwing around 60% more pixels to the screen than the Galaxy S, which will certainly be a factor in any performance differential.

FWIW, I've not noticed any significant difference in speed between my Tab and my HTC Desire, and anecdotally the Desire is just as fast as the S except in gaming.

Vis-a-vis the Market - usually, the slowness of the Market is at the Google end, not the device. It may be it's just handling the fingerprint differently.

Dave

When I try to flash the jl4 .tar file found in the development section it sticks at cache.rfs. I am currently on stock ji6, unrooted.

As a matter of fact, every time I try to Odin back to jfd, the first try always stocks on cache.rfs but when I unplug and reboot into download mode the second try works. The second try for jl4 stays stuck at the file system part and never even gets to cache.rfs. what am I doing wrong?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
I've found if I leave the phone in dl too long before starting odin, say a minute or two of sitting idle, the flash never goes and always hangs at the same spot. I usually open odin and load my files, then boot to dl mode and start the flash within seconds of booting into dl mode, and it goes through every time. Of course in the rare occasion it doesn't, close and relaunch odin and repeat the process. You may want to try downloading a fresh copy of your chosen image if all else fails.

[Nexus S General] ryude:
Doesn't support flash.

Edit: Used it for about 10 minutes before uninstalled. It's clearly pre-alpha build stuff, buggy and slow with no features.
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
Very slow.

At first I was impressed with how smoothly it handled scrolling while the web page was still loading(according to the progress bar). But then I realized that was because it didn't seem to be loading the entire page, just what I was currently looking at and a few lines down. So if you quickly swiped up or down, you'd just hit blank white and then the Browser would scramble to catch up. if you swiped back down to where you were, it would be white as well.

Uninstalled and I'm sticking with Dolphin Browser Mini for the time being.
[Nexus S General] Android Touch:
Yea this is getting very buggy.

They update it nightly so let's hope it gets better since Google for some reason doesn't wanna implement it into the stock browser smh :/

How can I do for see all sms received?

I believe if you go into settings in Handcent you should have a setting to show a button to display older messages. It is either in receive messages settings or customize, I forget which. Unfortunately, this may only work AFTER you have enabled it. Try going into the stock messaging app to see if you can find the message(s)

you are looking for. Also, there is a setting that is in both Handcent and the stock app how many messages to save. Try setting it to a higher number (500 instead of 200). Hope this helps.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sitlet:
You're pretty much out of luck. If you deleted the files 7 days ago, they are likely un-recoverable. If they are on the sd card, and less than a day or so, you have a chance to recover them using GetDataBack.

Your best bet is to do a factory reset to get all the files back.
