[G2 and Desire Z General] rUsTyRuSs:
With source code dropping today I give it a week tops. This phone has a lot of dev love and cyanogen himself has the G2. Look at the progression on CM alone. The galaxy s series is still begging for a stable CM. I consider myself lucky to be a G2 owner =)
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Yeah, I've always known that Samsung (and other brands, like LG) haven't historically had as strong a user community as the HTC devices (although that seems to be changing). But I don't think the fact that the G2 has an unskinned "vanilla" version of Android is going to make much of a difference in terms of custom ROM support (just "official" updates). I expect there to be custom Gingerbread ROMs for the Desire Z, as well as other HTC devices in no time at all.

[Streak 5 General] zero.fx:
Updated my O2 streak on wednesday night and I have spent some time trying to customise it to my liking and also getting used to Froyo. I must say it looks like a compleletly new phone. After using it for a day, I have found some bugs so I wanted to share with you all and see if other streakers out there also experience the same problem since the update.

Since updating to Froyo, I have mainly noticed the UI revamp and I do quite like it. But I haven't noticed any of the speed difference compared to 2.1, at least not very notisable to my eyes. (Infact I felt some what slower).

I am only using two of the stage UI from dell (Recently used Apps and galary), I feel they are a nice addition but not very useful for me. I also think that the Stage UI is resource hungry and it has slowed the phone down somewhat. Sometimes when I switch my phone on from standby or rotate the screen it takes about 1s for the Stage UI to load.

Another Bug i have noticed is that it seems to force close the browser every time I close the browser down by using option -> Exit.

I would also have liked the to fit my wigets or apps on each of the screens, I think the wiget size takes up too much space and also the app grid is just far too spaced out.

What I do love tho is the fact that home screen now not just in landscape but in portrait view. Battery appears to last longer then on 2.1 too.

Thats my thoughts right now. What are yours
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
I've got used to using ADW and after a couple of minutes using Stage I went back to it. So far there have been no major problems, the internet radio app crashes after a few seconds on the 'local' radio screen but works fine elsewhere. That's a problem with the app though, not O2 2.2. I might have been lucky but so far the upgrades from 1.6 - 2.1 - 2.2 have been pretty painless and worth it for me.

[Desire Accessories] virus2013:
Dear guys,

I had a brand new Sandisk 8Go Class 4 microSDHC. I first backup all that's on my 4Go card on a linux PC (with hidden folders), then partition the new one with GParted, and copy back all datas to it. It worked for one night and then the phone started freezing everytime.

I suspected the card, so I tested it many ways and it seems it was OK but I returned it back and get a new one. I tried the same way, but at boot I was stuck at the "android" boot screen... I tried a lot of things, such as partitioning with AmonRA and restore a Nandroid backup, but still the same bug !

When I push back my old 4Go Samsung non classed that was delivered with the Desire, no problem.

Can you tell me why ?? I have the lastest radio, 5.11.05.27, and RCMixHD 0.14 with the original kernel (2.6.32.25-ck2).

Thanks !:D

Sorry for my bad English, I just saw your post, and really would like to help.

I am not sure if your RCMixHD version use the Ext to store data on SD?

Here is my solution to make your new SD works:-

- Backup everything before turning off your phone

- create Ext2,3,4 on your new SD

- Wipe everything on your phone

- Reinstall ROM.

Please correct me if i'm wrong

**It should not be the fault of your new MicroSD card, as i use the same card 8GB

[Android Themes] HC4Life:
One of the things that allow human beings to perceive things in three dimensions (3D) is the depth of field. When you focus on something that is close, the objects in the background become out of focus. This lets our mind know which object is close and which is farther away, and hence capture the right dimensions for the object. It is not possible that out mind focuses both near and far objects at the same time.

With this tip, we will guide you how to make the icons on your Android phone appear more 3D by moving the background wallpaper to a more unfocused and blurred state, with the result that icons appear to float above the wallpaper.

View attachment 466516

The tools needed for this process are very basic: the desired wallpaper, and Adobe Photoshop Express for your Android device (we will use Photoshop Express in this guide as it is available free on Android Market, but you can use any image editor of your liking).

To begin, launch Photoshop Express and open your desired wallpaper in it. (You’ll need to uncheck ‘Show camera photos only in Phone view’ to be able to see all photos)

View attachment 466518

Next, you need to soften the image’s focus. Go to Menu > Edit Photo and select the third icon from top bar. You can soften the image by just sliding your finger across screen. The maximum it goes is till 20, which we find to be working best. However, you can set it to any value of your liking, Once you have attained the desired softness, save the image. (It will not overwrite the original but instead save as a new file)

View attachment 466520

That’s it. Set this new image as your wallpaper, and the icons will appear more 3D due to the difference in focus. The screenshot above does not do justice to it, but we tried it on Samsung Galaxy S, and the brilliant SuperAMOLED display works wonders with this technique. Give it a try on your own device and let us know how it worked for you.

[Android Themes] dEris:
Uh, this only works when you use the Tilt-Shift effect. Blurring the background only makes it look like you have a blurry background. What you did does not give the 3d effect sorry.

First of all you posting a question in general, it would make more sense for you to have posted it in Q&A

secondly have you tried searching this forum i know for a fact the issue has been covered before

thirdly try giving more information that could help us to solve your problem, what firmware are you running do u have the x10a or x10i. have u flashed the x10i firmware onto an x10a
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tufkal:
I am a US Cellular user, and I'm coming from a Samsung Acclaim, which had a very simple procedure for modifying it.

I had a official Samsung update tool, and several .tar files, that I could flash to get:

-Root kernel

-A more robust recovery console

-DEDOX Templates

-Modified Kernels (Tethering, etc)

and most importantly

-A complete factory image leaked from USCC

I could basically flash the updated recovery console, and then apply tars and zips and go nuts. And all was good, because I could apply the factory image to be 100% legit again.

I am going to be moving to a HTC Desire tomorow, and after looking over this forum for about 3 hours, I'm scared to death! It looks like HTC is alot more careful/paranoid~ No flash tool, no tar files, no source code, signed packages, RUU/MMS/RADIO and half a dozen other different things that I haven't deciphered yet!

What I need to know are just a few simple questions:

1) Is there a way to root and start doing some mods AND GET BACK to factory? If I can't get back to factory, I'm not going to touch a damn thing. (I think I read there are no USCC RUU files yet, whatever a RUU is lol)

2) Does the Desire suffer from the same internal memory problems that my Acclaim did? My Acclaim had 192MB of internal memory on a factory reset, and after Angry Birds, Facebook, Ebay, and half a dozen other apps, it gets down there pretty fast. From what I've read, it looks like the Desire is worse at 110! Since I don't want to root, rom, up to froyo, and app2sd without a restore plan, am I stuck until USCC releases 2.2 themselves?

3) Can I temp root? On my Acclaim, using the recovery console, I applied a rooted kernel, deleted some crap apps from /system/app, and then reapplied the stock kernel. Is that possible? Or am I gonna run into the same problem as question #1 where going back is impossible at this point because of some RUU issue.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eden2812:
Hey there!

Welcome to the world of HTC Desire (lol).

Anyway, I am going to try the best to answer your questions...

1) same as (3)?

2) Depends on how you manage it, but most of the time, the answer is a definite yes (sadly). And yes, you are stuck unless you have app2sd. You can use this to enable app2sd, but once again, no dice unless you are on 2.2.

3) Check out ""VISIONary" from the market. It's mainly for Desire HD or Z, but you should probably start reading about it here... It basically is a way to gain superuser rights for your current boot. Once you reboot, its gone. There's probably another alternative (saw something in the thread)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tufkal:
I think I was trying to cram too much into each idea. Sorry, let me clarify!

To clarify, USCC has not released a 2.2 update, their Desires have 2.1.

1) I have no problem learned the process, rooting, and installing roms on the phone, to get all the fun stuff I want. But in the case of a warranty issue, where I have to send it back, is there a way to flash a stock rom and undo all changes to a USCC Desire? Can I go back to stock?

2 & 3) Since USCC packed this phone so full of crap, with only the 110MB free on a fresh reset, I can't install the apps I want. I will look into the temp root solution you posted Eden, because if I can eliminate some system apps, and move some apps into that /system/app spot and out of /data, I might get enough wiggle room to get by.

I'll go all out and get a 16GB data partition with the Gingerbread launcher etc etc, but only if I can undo it all. That's my real concern.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Wing_Zero85:
This is the text of the petition:

To: Motorola Europe

Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Update for Motorola Milestone (Europe).

Motorola Milestone is still a top-class smartphone and there are no technical reason to not port Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) to this device since the update to Android 2.3 is yet announced on less-powerful devices.

We would like Motorola to update Milestone smartphone to Android 2.3 as we feel that the device is fully capable to support the new OS and is still to early stop supporting this device only after a year from it's commercialization. Especially for a top-class device.

------------------

before i'll create it, can you tell me if there are any grammar errors?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] silvacrest:
i personally appreciate your efforts however, i think they are wasted, im pretty sure 2.2 is the last official update we will see simply because it is motorola we are dealing with, not HTC or even smasung
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] lapy:
I think that it would be better like this:

"Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Update for Motorola Milestone (Europe).

Motorola Milestone is yet a powerful smartphone and there are no technical reasons to not port Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) to this device since the update to Android 2.3 is also announced for less-powerful devices.

We would like Motorola to update the Milestone to Android 2.3 as we feel that the device is fully capable to support the new OS and it is still too early to stop the support for it as it has been out for just a year, considering also that the Milestone is a top-class device."

Anyway good luck ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] scaltro:
Why don't simply asking for an unlocked bootloader that allow a full ROM cooking like for droid and all the other HTC devices?

I think that it will be easier to get this instead of an official porting from Motorola (absolutely not convenient for them)!

And the community later can develop for porting 2.3 on milestone too.

Much easier.... Doesn't it??

P.S I already had some experience in the past with petition and manufacturer (Eten/Glofiish/Acer) ... And this is my point of view...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] vennstrom:

Ahahahaha, if u think how long they took them to relese 2.2, a. ... whait, it's not relesed yet, then if u think a bit, the deam phone will break before you got 2.3 :-)

Just saying. .. =))
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Burko:
As above, ask for the bootloader to be unlocked instead.

If the device is classed as End Of Life, i.e no more updates happening, then it's more likely they'll unlock it....

Dont get your hopes up though, we still dont have 2.2.....

ROM Cleaner for CWM Roms

Lite your Roms easily ;)

​

About:

Rom Cleaner is a little tool to clean ClockworkMod ROMs in ZIP format. It should work with every Rom file, but currently it is only tested with Android Revolution HD and LeeDroid

You can also add aps directly into your Rom. (Experimental!)

How to use:

Download RC.zip at the bottom of this post and unzip it on your PC. Run RomCleaner.exe, select your Rom, select the apps you don't want and click on Customize!. That's it ;)

Linux Users:

Open a terminal and run install.sh in the RomCleaner directory. This will install p7zip. Then run RomCleaner_Linux

What are definition files?

Definition files are stored in app\remove. For each app there is on definition file in a very simple structured INI format. In this files is the name of the app, a short description and a list of files that belong to the app. Everybody can add his own definition files.

I would be very grateful if this definition files could then be posted here so that they can be included into the next release :)

If you like my work you can spend me some beer or vodka ;)

Hi Alex,

Why don't you add an "About" tab to your app saying who has developped it ?

You could then also add some explanation of the uses of it and other things you think relevant.

Just my two cents...

Edit : you can also add in the first post, the list of the apps that can be rmoved, then people can easily compare to waht they have on their device and add others to you.
