The only thing I want from gingerbread is that sick CRT-style wake and sleep animation. I'd even be happy with just that cooked onto a froyo build.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
That's pretty ignorant to call me an obvious newb. You're right, I may have made an incorrect statement, but I think they still will probably wait for the nexus one to be updated with gingerbread, as it will be much simpler to port to our hd2s, and the n1 should be updated any day now.

I've been using pocket PC's and smartphones for almost 10 years. I've been using this site since 2006.... been flashing my phone's since early 2007. Just because I make a mistake does not make me a noob. And who is arguing? I made a statement. Thank you for correcting me, orangekid, even though you seemed to agree its a waste of time to correct a "obvious newb" like me. This site used to be a great, friendly site...

[Nexus S General] harsaphes:
hey guys..quick question. My friend in Canada wants to get the NS and wants to know if it will work on the sasktel network.

Any information?

thanks
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
It'll work, but not on 3G, judging by what I can find.

Also, there is an NS sub-forum...
[Nexus S General] volsey:
I'm currently using the Nexus One on Sasktel's 3G, so I don't see why the Nexus S wouldn't work on it as well.
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
There are two types of Nexus One...
[Nexus S General] volsey:
I'm aware, but don't really know the difference between them. My network type is HSDPA, Sasktel recently launched their 3G+ network in all major cities/towns in Saskatchewan, so if your friend is in a major town/city shouldn't be a problem.
[Nexus S General] Rusty!:
The difference between them is the 3G/HSDPA frequencies they support.
[Nexus S General] mac208x:
Your most likely using the ATT model but the ns is a t-mobile model with supports 1900mhz not 1

2100 like ATT so it will work with edge but not 3g. You will have to wait for the ATT model ns

[HD2 Accessories] rodrigorajao:
Hello,

I just bought a couple of USB data cables (europe.nokia.com/find-products/accessories/all-accessories/memory-cards-and-cables/cables/nokia-connectivity-cable-ca-101) for my HD2 since the one supplied is too short and I also need extra cables for my other PCs.

HTC-branded stuff is kind of hard to come by here in Brazil, so I settled for the Nokia cables.

Problem is, my HD2 charges just fine through USB or the charger, but it will not sync data!!!! Windows XP won't even recognize the device connected!!

I'll try tonight with Win7 to see if I get lucky.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you guys for the replies, but I'm still unable to sync. I have Active Sync 4.5 on the WinXP machine and WMDC on the 64-bit Win 7 machine, all properly configured, and it still doesn't work.

Please notice that everything works 100% fine if I use the HTC-supplied cable. I just got the extra cables for convenience. What bugs me is that I read on forums that people get this Nokia CA 101 cable to work with HD2 just fine.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to look harder for HTC cables. I'll just be using Google's MS Exchange solution until then...

[Android Apps and Games] Veldmuus:
Hello Xda,

i have an question about Android apps.

Is there an Android App what can lock down my device to 1 screen with an few applications? so they cant get to settings or open standard android apps. i need this for my employees that have android phones but do to much with it. i prefer they can use mail, phone, navigation, calender, and the business app.

is this possible same like at WM?

this is what i mean. http://app.mypidion.com/

anyone knows an app for this?
[Android Apps and Games] djmcnz:
You're very mean or you have the wrong phones for your staff... :)

I don't know if I should tell you this...

Because the Google Launcher is open source you can modify it to remove options like screens, settings etc... but... they can always root it or download another launcher from the Market.

There are no system-level policies in Android for the behavior you're looking for.

Wrong phone really.
[Android Apps and Games] Veldmuus:
xD i know we have used for 7 years RUggedized pda's now with WM :) and now we received 5 ruggedized pda with android for testing purposes. but is there really nothing like an app with what we can do that? because i am not so good at programming and dont want to modify the source and etc self.

they can't root it yet ( this are industrial pda's )
[Android Apps and Games] djmcnz:
No app... you can get an app to password protect apps but that would be a pain to set up and maintain...

Also, you'd need to:

1. Prevent root

2. Prevent market

3. Prevent side loading of apps

4. Use a custom/modified launcher

^^^ And the manufacturers and carriers can't even do all of this... :eek:

This would be almost impossible unless you had a (very) customised rom. This would cost min €40k - €50k I would think (for commercial purposes), depending on the handset and level of modification/testing required. You would also have to pay for updates no doubt.

But what are you actually trying to prevent? There may be a better way.

E.g. there's no point in spending money restricting the "Calculator" app if you get my point?
[Android Apps and Games] Veldmuus:
i got ur point yes :),

apps i need to block are everything except the points i posted in first post. market is not installed standard because business rom. root is hard i think because nobody support that? or even take the time for that kinda pda? non consumer phones.

maybe other solution is it possible to autostart an app? cuz we can secure it to exit only with an admin pin and make inside the app a few buttons with mail / navigation

thanks for the info i will contact manufacturer about this point.
[Android Apps and Games] djmcnz:
Well, if you really want to restrict it... then you could use your app as the Launcher, and include icons for other apps in your app/launcher and remove Launcher2.apk.

Still won't prevent somebody side-loading another launcher but it will appear very restricted and you would have to "hack" it to change it. This would be against your company policy to hack (?) so you could be okay.
[Android Apps and Games] Veldmuus:
ok thank you :)

:) removed launcher2.apk with terminal. they can try to hack it or take an loader by itself but in a few weeks Soti Mobi controll comes for Android support so we can look what they do, and they know that cuz we use it at WM also at the moment.

thankyou i will talk to 1 of the developers to make the application as launcher to :)
[Android Apps and Games] djmcnz:
Very easy, one entry in AndroidManifest.xml... :)
[Android Apps and Games] Veldmuus:
xD could u tell me which one than i can do it myself :) thankyou

[Wildfire General] Furry Ferret:
Please excuse my ignorance, but I am completely new to Android.

I've just bought the wife a new HTC Wildfire from Tesco. I now need to do two things: -

Add Thai fonts

Unlock it from the tesco network​

I've downloaded the Anysoft keyboard from the Android market but it doesn't work properly bcse the Thai fonts are not present on the handset. It appears that I need root access to the handset to install them.

I also need to unlock the phone so that wifey can use her Thai sim card in the handset when she is in Thailand.

I've heard of an app called unrEVOked3 - would this enable me to do both of the above and is it simple and easy enough to use?

If I can use unrEVOked3, can I ever reset the handset back to it's original condition if it needs to be returned to Tesco for any reason, or does the use of the software permanently chnage the phone and completely invalidate my guarantee?
[Wildfire General] ballad:
I am not sure about unlock the phone but for installing Thai fonts, yes, you have to root it and it is quite easy with unrevoked3.

I think it is possible to backup the android and reflash it back to original condition.

Hello,

My HTC Desire got an update today.... However, when I try to apply it, it will progress almost halfway until it shows me the little droid guy with an exclamation mark.

I am on stock Froyo currently, however I am rooted using Unrevoked3. I was told I could still update and it would even retain root in the future. However, it does not seem to be the case.

So what would my options here be?

I do wish to retain root, and I do wish to update my phone. Mainly, because I hope it will fix the WiFi issue (WiFi goes into sleep mode in lock screen, regardless of the settings, thus I can't use Skype properly.)

Any advice and/or help would really be appreciated.

[Galaxy Tab General] Rozenthal:
Ok, so I'm going crazy now, but I just can't figure out what's wrong with my card.

I bought a new 32 gb card. I know, I know, you're gonna say it's a fake card, but it's not. I tested it with H2testw and it fill up the card with 32GB of random data.

So, here's what's happening.

1. The card came formatted, I just swapped it with the old card and the Tab recognized it without problems.

2. I took it out and copied backed up files from the old card onto it.

3. When I put back the card into the tab, only a few folders were visible and other data that was copied and visible via the card reader was no where to be seen on the tab.

4. Then I took it out and tried repeating the process - same thing.

5. I tried quick formatting the card through the PC, and tried everything once again. Now the results were different, but again not all folders were copied.

6. I tried formatting through the Tab. The format went fine. Then I tried copying files through the USB cable (mass storage option). That also went ok, but a few of the files could not be opened. Scanned it with disk check and automatic fix error option.

7. Back to PC, did a full format with a Panasonic sd card formatter. Ran H2testw. No problems. Put the card back, re-rooted the tab (since I started suspecting it could be somehow related to this).

8. The card is back in the Tab, but it's still showing some strange behavior, such as folders dissapearing or files not being readable.

Anyone have any idea what to do? I would also like to note that the card works fine when in my reader, I can copy files to it, open them directly from the card etc. No problems at all. But as soon as I put it in the tab it goes crazy.

P.s. The tab is rooted, firmware is out-of-the-box. I have app2sd, but I didn't put any of the apps on the old card, and all apps work normally with or without the sdcard.
[Galaxy Tab General] naddie:
I dunno. Bad card? Or maybe just incompatible with the Tab?
