OK, I have been thinking about developer unlocking the phone, but am not a 100% sold. The two main issue I am unsure of:

1) Does MS still have the ability to turn our DVPs into bricks via an update?

2) Is there a way to reverse the developer unlocking process so that we can go back to being "in compliance?"

Thanks for any input!
[Venue Pro General] pessimistic observer:
as far as i know even if you developer unlock the dvp once you sync it with zune it relocks it this issue has only been corrected on htc phones as far as i know

also judging by ms response to chevronwp7 an update wouldnt brick your phone

but would most definately relock it
[Venue Pro General] lemonspeakers:
chevronwp7 works. i can confirm as well. i already have some xbox live games up and going.

i've been revoked once by but i unlocked it. its simple.

There are good and the bad. Good: you can side load apps. Bad: its a hassel to unlock it again everytime.

- Registry hacks and apps have been developed for the HD2 to be spoofed as an HD7 thats why they dont lock back up. However, these registry hack programs have been written only for HTC devices and thus, so far, i cant find one that can work on the Dell Venue pro.

if anyone finds a way to edit registry for Dell device, let me know.
[Venue Pro General] jessej:
Can anyone confirm that the tethering method posted on pocketnow.com is working? It is in the update for the HTC tethering post.
[Venue Pro General] downey_ryan:
Do you know how to sideload apps without having a developer account? I've got the phone unlocked, and enabled tethering...but I'm dying to get the flashlight app on here.
[Venue Pro General] jessej:
I have been deploying the XAP files through the developer software but I believe there is a thread discussing how to methods in the WP7 general development section. I will try to find it and post the link to it.
[Venue Pro General] downey_ryan:
That would be great. The newest developer software requires that you have a developer account. Like I said, I managed to unlock but now I'm stuck because of the new limitation.

[Android Apps and Games] Amdathlonuk:
Agreed.

Don't steal.

Developers will just stop developing and then we'll all have to switch to iPhones........ *shudder* :(
[Android Apps and Games] dewd2:
Sorry, but that's a lame excuse. My 15 year old son has a debit card (and sometimes buys apps). If nothing else (and there are tons of ways to get a debit card), you could get a gift card and use it to buy apps. If you feel you must steal apps that cost less than $10, then you have more problems than just not having a credit card.

My $0.02. :(
[Android Apps and Games] tonyriceroni:
Stupid thread is stupid.
[Android Apps and Games] meanm50:
I disagree. The LP dev is stupid to only allow paypal payments. I would have purchased it a long time ago if it wasn't paypal only.

I am NOT supporting warez here. Just my $.02 on the paypal only thing. I believe LPP would be used more if it didn't require paypal. At the point that a dev is circumventing the market, whats the market for?
[Android Apps and Games] irish22022:
whoa whoa whoa.. speaking out of turn here. Not all devs live in places where they are allowed to use google checkout, or to put paid apps in the market.

Don't call the guy stupid just because of where he lives. His country (Uruguay if memory serves) makes it impossible for him to use the market for a paid app. Paypal is his only viable option.

And pirating any apps is completely pathetic, but of course, it will happen. I wish I didn't see it in forums and threads on sites where developers and consumers so regularly go to support android. But, stupidity will be stupidity...

Furthermore, I'm a little confused by the way the author gets apps from the market. you can't bill to carrier, you have to use a credit card (unless you're on ATT, and even then, a month ago you couldn't). Does your mom buy all your apps? If that's the case, they why can't she buy you this one?
[Android Apps and Games] Graph.Two:
With T-Mobile you can charge your account as well! To be honest OP pay for the app!!! Support the developer!! Borrow a friends card! But don't take the slimy way out and look for a free pass! What if the shoes was on the other foot??

[Android Apps and Games] meanm50:
I am aware of this info...you can get a Visa merchant account in ANY country as long as you have internet...which the dev obviously does...he has his own website...

Maybe the author doesn't normally buy paid stuff. I have been on Android for years, and I have only purchased ONE app. I have donated to a few devs that make roms, but I typically don't buy apps. I WAS going to purchase LPP, but once I found out I have to deal with paypal, I quit. It's not worth it for me to go through transferring money to paypal, (3 days) and then making a payment to LPP, only to wait until the paypal payment has been recieved (another day or two) just to get a $2.99 home replacement.
[Android Apps and Games] iynfynity:
what's the name of the gift card?
[Android Apps and Games] dewd2:
Visa. MasterCard. Go to just about any bank, grocery store, or variety store and purchase one. With PayPal, you don't even need a CC. Just open a checking account.

BTW - I agree paying with PayPal is not the best option. I had a bad experience with an app and I will never do that way again. However, I still will not steal the app.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Go talk with that guy from China. His post was at least funny.
[Android Apps and Games] ikon8:
Umm you don't have to actually pay with your PayPal account, they just do the processing, you can pay with whatever credit/debit card you want. I don't even have a PayPal account and I bought the app just fine using my debit card.
[Android Apps and Games] bongd:
PayPal can be used, can't it? I think these developers work extremely hard and it's difficult, even being broke, to use their fantastic programs and not compensate them for their time and effort.

Think of the position you're in... if your valuable time and hard work went without reward and you got no return on your investment, you'd be upset as well. It's just a couple of bucks here and there. You can EASILY find these on Google but please, don't do it, man.

I'm all for warez when someone is just going to be used once or if I'm uncertain if I'm going to pay full price for something. But if something is honestly worth the money, even my cheap ass will buy it. This world is ****ty enough. Don't go ripping off developers.
[Android Apps and Games] djdanska:
I do this sometimes but if the app is not in usd, your forbidden to charge it to your tmobile acct.
[Android Apps and Games] avenge the rage:
I would like to pay for apps, but when I try pay in the market it tells me to put credit card details in and won't accept my debit card. Anyone know how to solve this?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkonland:
I was browsing some other site when I noticed some members mentioning how android 2.2.1 on their galaxy s devices made a HUGE improvement in overall speed, basically making it stock lag free. They had the original i9000 galaxy.

The story was, when google released android 2.2, their main goal was efficiency and speed overall but mainly for the snapdragon processor devices especially since their own device(nexus 1) + many others at the time, evo, incredible, etc. were snapdragon powered. Thus, people noticed the increase in speeds and also their benchmarks increased dramatically as well. The downside was, those optimizations kind of slowed down our hummingbird devices in some ways resulting in the lag we know of. Thats why some people feel(including myself) stock 2.1 was pretty slick in basic functions.

But since the 2.2.1 was leaked, people installed them on the international galaxy s devices, and even some ports were made for the samsung Captivate. All of those devices with the updates are much faster. I tried to find people having 2.2.1 on the Vibrant, but no know has so thus far. So does anyone know of any developments on 2.2.1 for or vibrants, or atleast somehow we can try to have it ported. I mean if they got it working from the i9000 to captivate, im sure vibrant should not be that much more different..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkside79:
Just install voodoo lag fix. Will speed up your vibrant and be mostly lag free. Why wait for all that. I'm using odex uvjl4 froyo stock rom with voodoo. Runs awesome.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Why is this the only suggestion EVER for lag on our vibrant?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lqaddict:
Because whichever way you look at the RFS, it is still FAT based filesystem, inefficient and ancient, Voodoo converts that to a proper linux based filesystem that should've been on the phone from the get go.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sdobron:
Voodoo lag fix is the ultimate solution to the lag problem. 2.2.1. in combination with voodoo would make our devices that much better with increased cpu and file system performance over 2.2.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
2.2.1 was ported to the Vibrant already. Heathen got everything working and it was amazing EXCEPT for a major bug. The phone would restart every time it picked up too much network strength signal (service bars). They tried fixing it for weeks but ultimately no one was able to fix this bug which is hiding somewhere in the radio of the Vibrant apparently. Ultimately 2.2.1 was dropped and development for it is now halted.

I believe there is some development for 2.3 (Gingerbread) from both TW, CM, and maybe Heathen as well but it appears it is still a bit too early to have daily-driver ROMs.

I hope this explains the situation.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
The OP is asking for like updates that improve speed and everyone goes VOODOOO!

I understand, I use voodoo too, and to the other guy explaining to me about RFS, I know that already lol.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkonland:
Thanks for the advice, but actually i already have voodoo running. Its just that I was interested in finding a more stable option, especially something that did not require having an additonal install. BTW how come people are getting such great benchmark numbers with their voodoo vibrants. I was getting close to 1400 and just did a complete wipe and reinstall and now im getting about about 1000. Regardless of the numbers, the phone seems to be flying though, regardless of the bogus numbers..

[Android Software Development] infantilo:
I've asked this a long time ago, but now i've heard this question from other's, twoo.

So:

Is there (or will there be) a way to code direct ON an android device (maybe at android 3.0)?

Not the script things..

The new android tablets (some of them already bringing hardware keyboards) would be great to code on. (really portable, long lasting battery) So it would be pretty cool if we could code java on device. (even programming on windows you often need have your portable device connected to debug).

Does anyone see any chance or will this be illusion?

Now when ces shows microsoft's arm windows will be late - maybe too late - this could push android once more. no need of an other os to code. ;-)

But maybe i'm only still al little dreamer.
[Android Software Development] Futur Innovations:
I would think that eclipse or some company like that will make a mobile developing platform sometime in the near future. I hope so, anyways :)
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
I do all my coding on a Mac Book Pro with Eclipse. Starting go get a little cabin fever and would like to maybe go to Borders or a coffee shop with WiFi and spend some hours coding there.

Now, were I to do so, I can't see coding on my phone even with full size keyboard. And I'm not taking my pride and joy Mac Book out either and spill coffee on it or have it stolen.

I'll just get a Netbook as cheap as I can and max it's memory....should work fine :)
[Android Software Development] infantilo:
But why buying a netbook when you already own a tablet with keyboard? ;-)

Shure, coding on a smartphone seems to be a LITTLE useless, but a 10inch Tablet on the way to work in train, in a cofeeshop, during a coference...
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
I don't own a tablet unless you're calling the Mac Book Pro laptop a "tablet". Why get a netbook? Because $300 is easier to deal with getting coffee spilled on or stolen vs $1,500 :)
[Android Software Development] burtcom:
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS!!

I would not expect to see a full IDE development on a phone, just something that can take source files, compile to Java, then convert to Dalvik.

But for tablets, an IDE could be usable.

I have a thread on this very subject floating around -- essentially we would need to get a Java compiler running on the device, and also the DX tool that converts the .class files to the Dalvik bytecode.

I can see this for most phone -- my Desire Z has a physical keyboard, which leaves lots of room on the screen for editing :)
[Android Software Development] infantilo:
so it seems to me, it would be our devs and hackers turn to get an compiler working. i don't see professionals to do this :-(

Desire Z and co are more tablets in my opinion than smartphones :-)

where's this thred?

I have a problem with Microsoft MyPhone on HTC mini.

After an advised update to myphone-1.6.2718-wm-pro-touch.cam the application hanged and the HTC mini became slow.

If have tried the old myphone-1.5.2128-wm-pro-touch and get a errror with says Start MyPhone again.

Is there anybody with that same experience and maybe a solution?

I dont like a hard reset because then i have to configurate my HTC mini again.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] geek111:
I can confirm that the build.prop edit that enables the swype dictionary breaks skype logon. Dr. Seuss would have a field day with this!

I've toggled it back and forth without rebooting on both Clemsyn's and Pershoot's kernels. Skype is reading build.prop and it pisses me off, because that breaks Swype!!!

And also I do not like green eggs and spam...

<edit> Spam Spam Spam Locks, Bagels and Spam!!!</edit>
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] fyyzer:
I'm having the same problem with Skype not logging in but I'm not using Swype at all. So that may be the problem for some but it's not the only smoking gun. I am running Clemsyns latest kernel so I'll try some different ones later tonight to try and isolate this.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] trscons:
FWIW I note there are two versions of the apk file available from many sources. On my tablet the version named ending with "beta" fails every time. The non-beta apk works without any problem. It's missing video, but perhaps their programmers will eventually upgrade the app.

Tom
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] geek111:
It's not swype per-se that breaks Skype for me.

It's the /system/build.prop edit that fixes the Swype dictionary which breaks Skype. (The 'swype specific' build.prop line fools software into thinking that the G-tab is a Samsung...)

For Skype to work the ro.build.fingerprint may need to be set to-

ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.2/FRF91/43546:user/release-keys

(a la market fix...)

You might want to post your existing 'fingerprint' value so we can compare and see if that's the culprit 4 sure.

Hope this helps,

geek111

p.s.- DON'T MODIFY YOUR /system/build.prop FILE WITHOUT BACKING IT UP!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

P.P.S.- Just reflashed to make sure... Skype works for me on both Clemsyn's and Pershoot's kernels as long as the fingerprint line is as above. I change it, and Skype hangs during logon... Kinda lame that both apps are parsing that line.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tom62015:
i am running cm7 beta1 (the one in clockworkmod)with swype and skype works fine...i think it has to do with the fact that the phone parts have been removed because i was on bitrixs cm7 and it doesnt work and on the beta (and in the ultimatedroid rom which has the phone parts) it does.... ( havent used vegan tab but the above workaround could work for bitrixs cm7)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] geek111:
DON'T DO THAT!!!

That fingerprint is for Android 2.2. CM7 is 2.3.

You WILL break your system if you do that on CM7.

I've seen a couple threads asking which would be a good ebook reader for the Windows Mobile HD2 ROM, and I've found that Mobipocket was the best of a crap bunch. On it though, the ebooks were completely overpriced compared to the Kindle app that I was using on my SD card version of Android. Even though I was just buying the free books on Kindle, when switching to Windows Mobile I found you can explore out of the Mobipocket app when searching for your downloads, and find all of the books that you downloaded free from Kindle, then read them through Winmo.

Although I completely got rid of Windows Mobile now, this couple be useful to anybody still using the SD version of Android who don't want to pay £13 for a book..
