Great job! It would be very practical, if you can also benchmark the official Hero ROM as reference.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] moskito99:
how about adding the HTC official roms as well?

i am about to sell my htc hero on ebay, I might need an original rom for the potential buyer...:-)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] takuhii:
Sorry didn't realise Feeyo was attached to that project. Does anyone know WHY he's banned?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jkballero:
problems with the guys of villainrom.. they said feeyo toke portions of their code..

i'm not really sure... but I think that there was a war of words in the forum .. and to avoid more problems Feeyo was banned and he left XDA to go to his own forum .. where he has not stopped working in the best ROMS for our child.

I think it's a shame that what is possibly the best developer is not in the forum.

But i'm happy he has not stopped working doing his best ;-)

Sense is only possible when HTC is releasing an Image with Sense and Android 2.2/2.3 for this device, casue there is another Kernel and many things different with Sense.

flash 10.1 on spica? possible with custom rom? or processor not fast enough?
[Galaxy Spica General] yamen.meddeb:
First of all flash 10.1 exists only for 2.2 and up, but for spica there is no an official 2.2, some kernels like cyanogenmod 6.1.1 do it with flash integratde, i can send it to u but you'll have problems with internet navigation.

with the mode below you can.
[Galaxy Spica General] TGeorgeMihai:
No, you can't get Flash 10.1 on i5700 even if you would have 2.2 ... becouse Flash 10.1 also require ARMv7 ... and Spica only have ARMv6 ...

hxxp://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2033&c=samsung_gt-i5700_galaxy_spica

Search for LG Optimus One (P500) nd you will see that even if it comes with 2.2, you can't run Flash 10.1 on it ... :(

there was anywhen a little mod which realized it. not really stable but for example on uhrzeit.org i was able to see the flash clock. can't find that mod anymore...

[Q] Wifi Hotspot Problems

I cant turn on the Portable Wifi hotspot on the Nexus S. It always says error. Is someone else having the same problem? BTW im on Tmobile.
[Nexus S General] nxt:
Reboot. Turn off your Wifi first, then enable wifi hotspot tethering.
[Nexus S General] aliminator:
I tried that and it didn't work.
[Nexus S General] raeef:
I don't have data connection but I tried to turn it on and it worked fine.
[Nexus S General] aliminator:
Hmmmm. Looks like i need to pay 15$ extra to get the service enabled on Tmobile. Strange how i never had to do that with my Nexus One.
[Nexus S General] damrong18:
I had the same problem, but I kept trying and it eventually worked.
[Nexus S General] nxt:
Do you have some really old and cheap data plan?
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
They can detect it if you don't pay right?
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
no, that would be illegal to monitor your network traffic without a warrant
[Nexus S General] nxt:
LOL wut? Course they can detect it. How else do they know if you're over your limit or not. LOL. And no that's not illegal.
[Nexus S General] Slapinfunk:
One of the things advertised with the NS is no charge for wifi teathering. I think they only require a fee on the 4g devices.
[Nexus S General] nxt:
That's why I asked the OP if he/she had an old cheap data plan. You have to have a current data plan.

Can they detect if you have an old plan? Yes. Can they detect if you're using the tethering/hotspot feature? Probably. Can they detect how much bandwidth you're using? Definately.
[Nexus S General] Slapinfunk:
Must have an Android plan. Some got away with using a lesser plan but not all apps work. Visual voicemail etc....
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
So on an EM+ plan with unlimited data, i could use tethering.. right?

Huh? Like they know when you've gone over the limit when X surpasses Y, i.e, 210mbs(X)>200mbs(Y)
[Nexus S General] nxt:
Yes EM+ with unlimited data is fine.

I was replying to slowz3r cuz he said it was illegal if they can "detect it".

And yes, they can detect if you've gone over the limit, or overusing data plan, etc.
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
Oh cool. So what you're saying is that I don't need to buy tethering? :)
[Nexus S General] Jayrod1980:
[Q] Wifi problem?

I unlocked and rooted today and thought everything was fine. However, after the phone was factory reset, all of my apps didn't auto update like before after signings in and Im having a wierd wifi issue.

I can connect to access points but now I can't actually use wifi. The 2 or 3g sign will still be on. Even if I have full bars on wifi I can't use wifi. I went into recovery and fixed permissions and the problem still persists. I have no idea how to fix it short of a factory reset. Could rooting have anything to do with it?
[Nexus S General] wardy:
WifI probs after new update

I've seen the Mobile network problem but this is different . My WiFi signal sits in white and not green until I manually forget network and re apply the SSID.

Worked perfect before update , would walk into my home and it would pick up and connect .

Anyone else having this problem or no of a cure ?
[Nexus S General] IDtheTarget:
I've had problems with three different handsets (iPhone 3G, Vibrant, Nexus) on different Wi-Fi routers. Believe it or not, what usually fixes the problem is updating the router to it's latest available firmware. I haven't kept up with all of the varieties of WPA2 or 802.11N, but it's helped me...
[Nexus S General] wardy:
cheers , I was looking at a new router after Xmas . Thing is it worked flawlessly before the update .

I will do a hard reset and see if that helps

[Galaxy 3 General] Megapaul:
I was wondering if there is a fix for the missing contacts letters in the indexbar at the right side.

I've updated my GT-I5800 first to I5800XXJPA and a little later to I5800XXJPB.

But it got the same issue as the sgs galaxy s.

I also have a galaxy s, for this phone there is an fix, by installing sgs tools.

I thought i give it a try and i downloaded the sgs tools on my GT-I5800.

Installed it and updated my contacts apk.

But when i opend the contacts it gave me a forse close.

Also after rebooting it gives an FC

I did the search before opening this thread.

Has someone the magic trick to solve this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wstevew:
I used the battery mod apk on here to apply a new framework-res.apk for JPY and now the phone boots and stays on the logo. then screen goes black and it vibrates every now and then.

I made a backup on the internal SD before applying the change and phone was left in debugging mode.

When i use adb i cant change into the /sdcard/ folder ("can't cd to /sdcard ")and if i type su it vibrates and comes back with "[1] Segmentation Fault su"

can I recover from this or do I need to use ODIN to re-flash JPY (I have not used odin previously so be gentle)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wstevew:
So i just flashed with odin. Same problem :(

[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Hi,

After the success of the beta programme (over 100 people wanting to signup!) I decided it was time to re-write the platform to allow me to add more features and improve the overall "feel" of it. I also have plans to commercialise the platform, allowing it to be used by businesses/individuals who wish to monitor devices remotely.

The client application for Android is available freely from here and can be included in a custom ROM if you wish to make it persistant across factory resets. I do ask that if your are a ROM developer that you let me know before you do this, and also credit me in your release notes.

There will be 3 main licenses available to you:

Basic

Standard - comming soon

Expert - comming soon

(These apply to your account)

Basic

FREE!

Single device per account

GPS Location

Alarm-on-Demand

Standard

£0.99

Single device per account

GPS Location

Network Location

Alarm-on-Demand

LiveTracking

Includes software updates for 12 months

Expert

£2.99

Multiple devices per account (limit of 5)

GPS Location

Network Location

Alarm-on-Demand

LiveTracking

Includes software updates for 12 months

I am also considering the possibility of an API which a business could use to extract information and use it in their own way. Please contact me if you are interested.

How to install?

Remove any older versions from your device

Install the latest version from above

Goto "http://promethium.mobi" and signup

On your phone, follow the instructions to register your device against your account

Login to "http://promethium.mobi" and have fun!

I haven't moved any old accounts over, so you should signup again.

Enjoy,

[Android Apps and Games] Dj!pOner:
Thank you very much :D
[Android Apps and Games] orb3000:
This looks nice:)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Ok. It should play the default alarm tone you have set. Could you pastebin a logcat, from before you click "play sound" until the notification appears.
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
OK people!

Thanks to all those who already registered, just a few spaces left if people want to signup. Please only signup if you are happy to engage in helping me improve this platform... any accounts created but not activated within a day will be removed!

So far I have made quite a few alterations, improvements to the UI on the portal, as well as more interactive feedback. This means that you need to re-download and install the client app - this will overwrite the current one, and will keep all existing settings :)

Enjoy!
[Android Apps and Games] cazes010:
Very nice application! Good :)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
You're welcome, and thanks for the positive feedback!

I would appreciate if you could test out the portal/make sure it does what it is supposed to etc. Post back here if you have any niggles, but also if you can think of anything which might improve the experience.
[Android Apps and Games] dwizzy130:
Well that's why! I figured it would play it's own notification. I have the alarm volume set to 0 because I don't ever use it.lol

It would be nice if you had a configuration for that in the app or the portal.

Keep up the good work,

dwizzy130
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Hmmm. It should crank the volume up to max before it plays the tone.

I haven't included an "alert" sound yet, as I thought people would recognise their own alerts easier. I like the idea of adding a customise option to the app though :) Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ljonh3art:
It so cool! Thank you.

Keep it up :D
[Android Apps and Games] dwizzy130:
Hmm that's weird. It didn't change the volume, but when I manually did it, the sound worked. Other than that, the app looks and works great!

One more suggestion though, idk if it's possible, could you have it force turn on gps? I normally leave it off so if I actually do lose my phone, it would just give me the giant radius of the cell tower location...

Also, I notice you're using dyndns. Is the computer/server you're running it on going to be up 24/7?

**EDIT**

One more suggestion, a "My Phone's Location" button on the portal that snaps to the location and centers it.

dwizzy130
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Sorry, starting from Android 1.5 cupcake, you cannot programmatically toggle GPS. It should be fine to leave it enabled though.

While I am developing the app regularly it is running on a server I have on a dynamic IP line. Once the app is ready for general release it will go onto into a hosted environment.

Hitting "Refresh Location" does this now, but it takes up to 5 seconds to move across the map, I will look at making it snappier :)
[Android Apps and Games] dwizzy130:
Hmmm I could have sworn one of those SMS based locator apps could force toggle it. Maybe not. Idk.

Perfect, that's what I wanted to hear.

I'm an idiot for missing that one.lol

[Android Apps and Games] xghostyxjokerx:
i must say great start looking forward for more....keep up the great work!!! Hey could we somehow get a option to lock and such...will more add on and such be added in the future??,....keep us posted thanks alot!!!
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
I have read through the SDK documentation and the best you can do is prompt the user to enable it. So kind of misses the point :)

I have also altered the JavaScript code so that clicking on the location refresh button zaps you to the marker instantly, but you still have to wait until the phone updates the server to see the latest result :D
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Thanks for the positive feedback - glad you like it so far.

Yes, more features will be coming soon, including a "Lock" ability. This is quite a complicated one though, might require the user to select a "secure" lock screen prior to first use.

I also thought of some wicked uses for the Nexus S, but that will have to wait until I get time ( here's a clue: Peekaboo! :) )
[Android Apps and Games] xghostyxjokerx:
GREAT LOOKING FORWARD TO IT..... Curently running off of Nexus One ... will these wicked uses work for N1? :( :)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
They might work, but no good snapping your feet :D
[Android Apps and Games] dwizzy130:
Front camera I presume? If so, it should work on my EVO right?

dwizzy130
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
I am hoping so, but I am going to have to look into the SDK to see how 2.2 handles the camera inputs.

Also, device locking is now available (requires new 1.3 APK) :D
[Android Apps and Games] KarlosTheJackal:
Thought i would give this a go & I must say it is amazing! Will keep checking back & ill report if i find any errors :-)
[Android Apps and Games] galaxys:
+1 For wicked uses on the N1! :D:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] akitofan:
Great app so far! Works almost exactly like I hoped it would.

However, one small little thing. When using the "lock device" option, the first time it's used, it asks what you want to use as a default app. By selecting promethium lock screen, it then changes your default home key action to launch the stock android launcher...and since I'm using LauncherPro, I can't get my launcherpro homescreen to show up unless i undo the default setting in prometium. Any thoughts?
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
I am changing the way the locking mechanism works.

It seems Google have made it nearly impossible to prevent the lockscreen being replaced unless you use a custom ROM. My attempt has to have an intermediate HomeScreen app which would render an unlock page if needed, or load the standard homescreen if not.

I am reworking this mechanism now - but the lock will become more of an "anoyance" rather than a full lock :(
[Android Apps and Games] akitofan:
wouldn't having it use the default lockscreen that you have in your settings work? Or am I missing something there?
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Currently there is no way to create an alternative lockscreen. Google have tweaked the behaviour so that things like the Alarm notifications work properly when your phone is "locked".

The 1.4 version is better - hardly noticeable in use, and 1.5 will bring the ability to chose your "standard" launcher :)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Try the new 1.5 version, and you should be able to pick LauncherPro from the settings menu in the main app :)

Still a bit buggy, as you lose the ability to have LauncherPro trigger the app drawer etc on HOME press. This is probably to do with how the intent is called, and I hope to fix this sometime.
[Android Apps and Games] Poser:
@RB

Very nice... fairly responsive. Keep up the good work.

Vibrant (GingerClone_R2; JL5 baseband; Voodoo Kernel)

EDIT: I know you have already answered this, so this is more a comment than a suggestion: But hopefully the 2.3 rollout will include an ability for apk to call for GPS without user input... because being a heavy user, extended GPS use is a no-no.
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Thanks for the encouragement, glad you like it :)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
I have contacted the AnderWeb guys to see if they can shed some light on why my intent doesn't open their app drawer :)

Interestingly enough, it does trigger the HTC Sense launcher into showing the previews :S
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Unfortunately had to remove the remote locking as it was causing too many side effects with other launchers :(

If a solution presents itself then I will definately look into it.

Maybe a custom ROM developer would like to catch an Intent and have an change the locking PIN etc. Wouldn't work unless you had the ROM but it would be cool for those who did :)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Updated to 1.7 to improve LiveTrack feature.

Also might be able to add a working lock mechanism back into the code... investigating now!

Happy New Year everyone!
[Android Apps and Games] KarlosTheJackal:
I've been using this for a while but the newest version is killing my battery! Turns the GPS on constantly & just drains any life I have!

I've attatched a screenshot of my battery use which should speak for itself! For know I'm uninstalling the app untill the battery issuses are sorted.

http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w254/KarlosTheJackal/ScreenShot.png

Sent from my Desire Z on Enomther's TheOfficial G2/DZ
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
I have seen the same behavior - I think I know what it is :)

Also, make sure you don't have LiveTrack on permenantly as this keeps a service running listening to the GPS.

I am planning a release hopefully later today, as I am off to CES on wednesday and probably wont update the code until I return.
[Android Apps and Games] KarlosTheJackal:
I will keep a look out for it :-)
[Android Apps and Games] richbayliss:
Hey guys, I think one of the services was being started when it shouldn't have been.

Try the 1.8.1 version and it should be fine. Just remember that LiveTrack means the position is sent to the server roughly every 15 seconds, or at least every meter you move. Having this on will affect your battery life, so make sure you haven't got it switched on in the portal, and you can always check "Running Services" to see if it is running.

Hope this helps your batteries!

[Android Apps and Games] dwizzy130:
Just thought I'd let you know that it is in fact possible to toggle GPS state programatically. Check out Lookout security. I just tested it out (I'm running custom Android 2.2) and it does in fact force the GPS to turn on. You should check it out and see if you can't figure out how they do it.
