hey there - I really like this ROM but one thing has me totally confused. both the AOSP and the Blur Dialer/Contact apps are installed and they are not integrated.

thus although I can see all my contacts in the AOSP Contacts app, the Blur Contacts app has no contacts - this also means the t9 search in the Dialer doesn't work - which is one thing I really like about the Blur dialer. also - I really like the way the Blur Contacts app can show history for all or any one of your contacts.

anyway - I'd like to ditch the AOSP Dialer/Contacts set up and use just the Blur one but I can't figure out how to do that.

any help?

also - I really really like having the "Contact Search" Shortcut available - I thought this was part of the Blur Dialer/Contact app... any chance of getting that back??

otherwise - I'm a big fan.

ok, this is likely the result of replacing the auto-nooter Youtube app with the "HQ YouTube" app discussed here; but, no matter what I do, I cannot launch YouTube videos from any other application besides the Youtube app itself.

If I click on a Yotube video link in Dolphin HD or gReader, it brings me to a "link not found" page each and every time, for each and every video! :(

Any ideas?

Hi all,

my first original htc s620 battery gone, some time ago i buyed chinese battery (now gone). This is ONLY A TEST TO TRY RETRIEVE A CRAZY LI-ON BATTERY

(i mean a battery that not hold a charge).

The lithium polymer batteries suffers high temperatures. Reading around i discover exist a way to TRY in retrieve a Li-on Battery. I'm testing it and soon we will if it work or not.

I do not assume liability for damage caused by this method. This method can be easily found online. Remember that it can be very dangerous to experiment with lithium batteries.

Ok, im testing it so:

1/ Wait until your device turns off (due to ended battery);

2/ put the battery in an airtight container and place it in a freezer for 2 hours (more or less);

3/ remove the battery from the freezer and wait for it to come back

naturally itself

at room temperature (so keep it away from heat sources) , it can takes about 1 hour

4/ put battery on your device and recharge it for twice the normal time ( more or less 4 hours).

Recharge the battery while holding the device OFF

5/ after a long charge, the battery will become usually a little hot . So remove from device , wait until it returns

itself

to normal temperature and then put it back in the freezer for another 2 hours.

6/ remove again from freezer, wait it back

itself

at normal temperature (about 1 hour) . Then put it in the device and test how long it works this time

It might recover some charge because seems low temperature (around and not too much under 0°) stabilizes cells.

ALWAYS REMEMBER TO WAIT FOR THE BATTERY RETURNS ITSELF AT NORMAL TEMPERATURE . BE SURE THE BATTERY IS NOT SUFFERING FOR FAST CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE ( IT CAN BE DANGEROUS) .THIS TEST CAN BE DONE ONLY USING A LI-ON BATTERY (ABSOLUTELY NOT ON A NICKEL BATTERY)

I'm testing it . I'm curious to know if this method can be useful.

In the next days i will put the result.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
If you look for a method to measure the capacity accurately, look at my signature. Looking forward to read if there is any success (I doubt it).
[HTC Excalibur] fwood:
ok this is the result. I've found some changes.

After freezer treatment, seems all my two battery maintain better ( little more time) their charge segments. But the batteries did not lose the effect of "virtual memory " . This means they continue to not be fully charged, infact the device goes off several times before the it can no longer switched on. BUT as i said before, the segments charging now last longer than before.

So this method lies partially. You absolutely cannot fully recover a worn battery but...surely the ice temperature make some little changes in your battery.

i'm buying a new "extra long" chinese battery of 2200mA :D

@tobbie : do you think a new battery must be charged immediately ( when it will arrives) or it's better if i use the partial charge i will found on it ( before recharge)?:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
My experience with Chinese batteries is very bad. You will get a labeled block of bull**** not worth the postage. I have tested several in my efforts to find the best one and they ALL (no exception) perform worse than the original ones. They never keep the promise they make on the capacity.

If ever possible go for the original batteries, next best is quality replacement parts (whatever that is...) or try your luck with cheap Chinese ones if you don't care about the few bucks.

Good thing is that you have a reference method for comparison, so I would be glad to get your battery rundown to judge upon it.

Li-Ion batteries have no training phase and also no wear depending on charge cycles (unless deep discharged). Look up my thread on battery capacity measurement, some interesting links there.
[HTC Excalibur] Hakim Rahman:
you're right tobbie !! I commonly use batteries SE :);)
[HTC Excalibur] fwood:
ok , thanks tobbbie. I spent for 2200Ma chinese battery almost €15...but surely you're right. I expect nothing better than my last chinese battery! Anyway is not esay to find an original s620 battery, i will try again!

Thak you, i'll check you post! :)

Repair battery.

I have the original batteries in both my S620's, try this, when the phone starts switching off after a shorter period, ie less than a day, when it switches off switch the phone back on until it again switches off, repeat this until it won't switch on. Recharge and repeat the process, you should find the battery works like new, mine did.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
...another miracle in batteries life :-)

I only trust measured proof. Can you supply this, e.g. a tracked run-down like suggested in the measurement thread in my signature?

There are rumors (no proof) that devices "learn" about the battery and they can be reset in learning by doing as you suggested. I have not seen anything like this happen in the devices that I own. Charging when device is switched off is done by HW only (the chip) and the shutdown is purely guided by measured voltage. No space or logic for any sophisticated memory...
[HTC Excalibur] standenc:
I don't care if you believe me, I only wanted to help, if you don't believe it - tough. All my phones work with original batteries, believe it or not.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
I don't argue that original batteries work (they do best for me as well). My doubt is about the procedure to "train" the device to recognize batteries better and consequently deliver a better duty cycle after that.

My experiences are different. A "dead" battery stays as "dead" no matter what you do to it:

deep discharge (as much as possible) + recharge: no change

freezer treatment: no change

Everyone may try himself - no harm expected. My proposal just is to put the "improvement feeling" on a metric base, so just to measure it.

The problem with subjective observation is that your normal use patterns are so much depending on the environment (location, movement, device use) that they are never so identical that you can compare one week of use with another.

i have an eclipse avn 726e deck in my car ever since i flashed the cm6 rom i am no longer able to auto connect with the handfree bluetooth feature... i went to the cm forums and found this post... All

I fixed audio.conf so it works on BMW bluetooth HSP

The change is to add Headset and Source to available profiles (they were turned off in CM4.somethingorother, add autoconnect for both A2DP and HFP/HSP, and increase max connections to 3.

This works for the car bluetooth now, where before it would continuously disconnect.

The difference between this and normally accepted workaround is that this leaves the A2DP profile enabled but I don't have a A2DP profile headset to try that though, can someone please? Thanks

Push to /sdcard/ and then run in sh

cd /sdcard/

cp /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf /sdcard/audio.conf.bak

mount -o remount,rw /system

cat audio.conf.txt > /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf

mount -o remount,r /system

Then reboot.

i was wondering if any body could either validate and or give a little bit more detalied (dumbed down) version of this process as i am SOMEWHAT noobish.. (i am somewhat familiar with sdk and adb)as i rooted and flashed my desire... but any help would be apprecieated thank you ...

Ok I have a gmail user linked to a Facebook user. I didn't have this user in gmail so I created a shell (just the name). When linked the gmail user with the Facebook user I see one contact with cell pic act in my contact list. Great... but when if go to Google the contact still only has a name and noting else.

So, my question is how do I sync Facebook info with gmail?

Thank

soBBie

Ps. This is my first post from this done and I love this app :)
[Droid Incredible General] thehoovie:
Are you asking about exporting Facebook Friend contact data and importing that to a Google contact? Using your phone? I really don't think you can. Facebook Contacts friends details are not able to be exported, at least not using HTC contacts or MMS. The HTC people app is not designed to function like that, by populating one account with data from another account. It would be nice if it did have sine sort of sending out contact details. You could send contact data as a vcard to your gmail address and import using the website. But Facebook details don't populate to the vcard. I would like to be able to import more details into my Google contacts, but using my phones phone books other account types is not the way to go.

[Droid Incredible General] supersobbie:
First let me say thanks for the response. And yes I wanted to sync the info in my phone (from Facebook) with my Google contacts. That makes me a little sad since it appears that Facebook and this phone work great together.

Well maybe one day.

- Place "Android" folder on the root of your SD card

- Run "CLRCAD.exe" then "haret.exe"

- First boot will take up to 10-15 minutes

- After Install check APN settings

but the problem is that everytime i run haret.exe all that happens is 8 lines of very small writing appers at the top left hand side of my screen and stops like that :(

Please can you tell me what i have done wrong

[Wildfire General] mrbumbastik:
Before i posted Wildfire Bricked !?!?!

I somehow fixed it, at least i hope. If i press the volume down button there is some odd error causing the top part of the screen to change colour into deathly lines. Well at least it looks like that. And i can not, for some odd reason, enter into recovery. It is rooted with latest clockwork, so it should have recovery. It doesn't even enter HBoot... but if i take the battery out it will boot up normally. Should i ring up HTC, it's still under gurantee, and how do i install the ruu, should i uninstall the hboot drivers i installed to root (i'm on windows).
[Wildfire General] fireplayer:
First of all make a goldcard to be able to flash an ruu without any issues - search this forum to find out HowTo. After this try to flash a 1.25 or 1.37 and not a froyo ruu... and see if that resolves the problems, if Yes - you know it was a flashing/rom error - and you can use unrevoked once more and flash whichever rom you'd like... - and - in case you still have the errors - after installing ruu - then you are unrooted and under warranty once more - and can send it in to HTC without worries. Best of luck to you!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rotohammer:
It was fun while it lasted, but I think we can safely skip KA1. I'll leave everything here for those that want to play, but I'm going back to Roto-JME and crank out a new release of that.

Here are the pre-packaged KA1 firmwares, pre-rooted.

I am recommending that you flash CF-Root-Tab-KA1 to get ClockWorkMod 3.0 if you do not have a protected bootloader.

Use Roto-KA1-Full.zip if you are coming from any firmware other than Roto-JME.

Use Roto-KA1-Upgrade.zip if your current firmware is Roto-JME.

Use P1_add_hidden.pit if you're not coming from Roto-JME.

I have made the following filesystem changes so far:

Deleted Gmail.apk, Maps.apk and install_flash_player.apk to free up space for rooting.

Added AppWidgetPicker-1.2.1.apk

For those of you with protected bootloaders, either package will work for you too.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adinis78:
What is included on this firmware?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rotohammer:
KA1 :)

I'm still making packages, have no time to actually use it. Its smooth, especially the curtain.

EDIT: I will give a try no matter how according to the guidance.

essentially what you get with this is a Clockwork Recovery, so we can flash future roms instead of using Odin.....am i right on stating this?
