Hi,

I am able to connect to the internet through Opera and skyfire but not through the default browser. The biggest problem is that the default android browser was set as the default option to launch Google voice search - so now Google voice search too is not working since I can't launch it using Operamini. Pl help - it would be great if I could get the default browser to working state, if else is there a way atleast to change the default launcher for Google Voice search to Operamini so that I can use the Voice search app atleast.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
Try this in order to make Google search to ask you again what app to use by default:

Menu button - Settings - Applications - Manage applications.

Choose the "All" tab, look for "Browser" - tap it. Scroll down to "Clear defaults" button and tap it.

Anything that launched Browser by default will ask you again what app to use.

As for making the default browser work... I have no idea yet.

Good luck.

[Galaxy Spica General] gudding:
So i read the 'CORRECT Hardware GPS Fix' for samsung SGS, and i thought: This should be possible for the spica as well..

The SGS contact:

Considering that the gps contact on SGS looks the same as on the spica, it should work just bending it.. I've tried gently bending it up just a bit, with no progress. I'm thinking of opening up the spica bad boy again and bend it up some more.

Has anyone else tried this? Does anyone know if this is possible?
[Galaxy Spica General] gen_scheisskopf:
Unfortunately GPS behaviour on Spica is related with baseband and rild libs (mostly libsec-ril.so), for some combos of baseband and libsec-ril GPS works fine, for some it barely works.

I didn't try hardware fixes, but XXIL2 baseband with XXJF2 libsec-ril.so makes GPS working fine (up to 8 sattelites fixed, fix time under 1 minute without clear sky)
[Galaxy Spica General] gudding:
Thanks gen_scheisskopf,

So basically, i should re-flash my phone to XXIL2 baseband and use the libsec-ril.so (which u put in system\lib, right?)

EDIT: Ah ok i noticed there's a zip file which u install in recovery mode after you've flashed the phone to the correct baseband version.

thx,
[Galaxy Spica General] gen_scheisskopf:
I can't say if xxil2 baseband will work for you for sure, be prepared to experiment with others also.

[G Tablet General] MediocreNinja:
Hey guys, I'm trying to install a downloaded app I transferred from the PC to the gTab, and it's saying it can't find the local data.

When I read the readme file it says to "enable unknown sources" in the settings menu under the applications tab, but I can't find such setting.

I'm using a rooted TnT Lite 2.2 gTablet.

Is this option disabled for the gTablet or is it the specific ROM?
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
Hi,

The Settings.apk that comes with stock TNT (and I guess TNT lite) doesn't have a checkbox for enabling APKs from unknown sources.

I don't have it anymore, but I found one somewhere here on XDA that does.

The other thing is that I thought that I'd seen a post from roebeet somewhere that gave a "set prop" command to enable unknown sources. I just did a search on these forums, and couldn't find it.

But, reading your post, I'm wondering if that (enabling unknown sources) is your problem. It seems like the app not being able to find local data is more of the problem?

Which app is it?

Jim
[G Tablet General] MediocreNinja:
The app I was trying to use was Dungeon Defenders, I had downloaded it from a 3rd party site, and it came with the .apk and a folder of data that I was supposed to put in the root of the memory card.
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
There's a thread/post from someone that says he got it installed:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=908546

Is that where you got the APK?

Did you actually put that folder into the /sdcard directory? Maybe the app needs to have that folder in /sdcard to start?

Jim
[G Tablet General] MediocreNinja:
Not the same website, but I think he's using the same method. I'm not sure, the readme just says to put the folder onto the SD card, so I would assume that means the base root. I'm was just wondering if that option existed at all, or if it was disabled
[Nook Color General] hahyun6:
I heard people got nook color's bluetooth to work, is it stable enough to run this? shop. brando.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-case-with-bluetooth-keyboard_p05269c0299d 057.html

And is the dimensions of nook color the same as the Galaxy tab (to fit in that thing?)

With Doc 2 Go I think the nook color would be a decent netbook if that gets set up.

Also, yet to root my nook yet, but is the root stable? I've been hearing that shortcuts don't work and there are random rebooting XD

Please give me some input!
[Nook Color General] nrune:
no, bluetooth is not working yet development is continuing and we are hopeful.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbergen:
Hey guys,

just rooted a CDMA desire with 2.2 on the Telstra network here in Australia, but now in the network settings it's showing as if it's GSM and it can't read the sim card, it just say's no sim inserted.

Can I go back to stock or fix this?

Thanks very much
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
If you have the RUU yes, give it a go. Although CDMA phones don't use SIM cards, only GSM ones do
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbergen:
ok thanks. So I should be able to use any CDMA rom and the problem will be fixed right?

Cheers
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Well, if you're phone uses a SIM card it's not CDMA so you can't use a CDMA ROM

Might wanna wait on clarification from someone else, though
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbergen:
oh ok thanks. It does have a sim card, so I guess that means it's GSM?

I got confused because I just knew telstra works on 850mhz and not 900mhz here in Australia. It's my girlfriends dad's phone and I told him I'd get rid of the bloatware and now it's getting no signal eek lol.

I'm downloading Rod's MIUI rom for it, so hopefully that fixes the problems.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
In which case make sure it's a GSM ROM...out of interest, what radio is it running on at present?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbergen:
It's on 5.11.05.14
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
That's a GSM radio so ONLY use GSM ROMs
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbergen:
Oh lol, sweet, thanks for your help so far! Lucky, because I was originally downloading a CDMA rom to flash!

Going for Rod's MIUI cos that's what I use on my nexus. It's taking ages to download though. 17 mins to go.

Do you know if I need an ext3 partition? I think it's required, but doesn't say so in the OP for that rom
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I'm using eMIUI with a 1GB EXT3 partition and it works fine. Might wanna look at the APNs as they may not be on the handset so may need to be entered manually

I contacted Aldiko recently regarding the Soft Buttons and Margin issues with Aldiko v2. This was their reply;

Hi Vince,

Thanks for your email. Happy New Year to you too.

Archos devices are different from other Android devices because they do not follow normal Android hardware configuration. We will release a version of 2.0 customized for Archos devices in the next few weeks.

Thanks,

This is good news indeed; although as a work around on the current version, I simply changed the top and bottom margins in the settings. Seems to work fine.

Hi!

I'm using K-9 Mail instead of the stock email app on my rooted NookColor and I've noticed that the changes I make in settings are not stored :confused:

Anyone here using K-9 Mail too? Do you have the same problem?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Folder settings I saw this, but no-where else. It seems to not be reproducible on the latest version on their site, especially if you use the status bar back button, NOT the big text Back button in the dialog.

I logged a bug because I could NOT get it to set folder settings (and stick), and now I can't repro it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] xyzolog:
Thank you very much: it has solved my problem :-)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Geezer Squid:
I used K-9 on my Droid for about 6-7 months. I then discovered how to use the Gmail app to have my pop3 emails pushed. Here's a quick writeup I did over on DF about extending battery life. This one paragraph is about the gmail app:

Emails: I don't know what email app you use, but try this. It saves battery power and in some cases emails arrive quicker. This scheme will have you using only the Gmail app on the phone for all email accounts whether they are pop3 accounts or Gmail. Go to the Google Gmail inbox on your computer and log into the Gmail account. On the top right of the screen is an option called Settings. In there is an option to have the Gmail program poll your regular, non-Gmail accounts. Provide the email address and the password. The Google Gmail program will then poll your other accounts on a frequency from 1-5 minutes and push the email immediately to your phone. The polling frequency is determined by each account's activity - more emails = faster polling. It will always be no less frequent than every five minutes. This saves battery power because on the android OS pop3 accounts are polled at a frequency of 1-30 minutes and that really eats battery. Because the phone goes and checks those accounts for mail whether there is mail there or not.

I've been doing the above for 6-7 months now and could not be happier. Good luck.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
No thanks, I like K9. And POP3? Welcome to 1990.......
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bitnerd:
I was having the same problem a couple of days ago with the latest version from the Market. The solution I did was to not use the big back button up top but the little one down below just like you mentioned. The big one wouldn't save settings but the little one did. Weird
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Actually not weird; the Back button that the B&N ROM has on the dialogs isn't sending the right intents, as the K9 folks found out.

I logged a bug about this in their tracker and they discovered the difference in the buttons and that the status bar back (from Softkeys) works. Although I still swear it wasn't working for either at first.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
I am proud to present Need To Write!

It's a text editor unlimited by file sizes and offers a lot of customization and power tools.

Paid version

Difference between Paid and Free version is mainly in the poweruser options.

Paid version mainly adds lotsa poweruser options ;D

1) Remembers up to 9999 undo/redo operations

2) Control over the End-Of-Line characters (Apple, Unix and Windows tend to handle different End-Of-Line differently when doing plain text editing)

3) Allows user to specify buffer size

4) Allows custom fonts and background images

5) Allows user to customize 6 extra Themes in addition to the built-in 3 Themes.

6) Allows toggling of word wrap

7) Always wordwrap

8) Text to Speech reads single paragraphs only.

9) Automatic backup of 1 file to user specified location on SD card

Version 1.71 features:

2) Edit mode with unlimited file size, and tracking system to resume your reading/editing progress.

3) HTML mode! Supports non html files as well.

4) Text to Speech! I'm gonna use it to listening to ebooks when my eyes are tired :)

5) GoTo, Search, Replace, Cut, Copy, and Paste

6) Multiple Undo and Redo with undo history up to 9999(for the full version). Also comes with a sliding bar to easily rewind and fast forward the changes you made.

7) Themes! Customizable display; you can specify your own background images, custom fonts, background and font colors, line spacing, indents etc.

8) Landscape mode

9) EditText view with inertia scrolling, and yet no irritating problems of the view rectangle not being called to show your cursor, nor the rectangle jumping all over the place when you try to place your cursor far away.

10) Toggleable word wrap and autocapitalization (if supported by keyboard app)

11) Specify what End-Of-Line chars for saving your files with.

12) Tons of encoding options from ISO, windows 125_, Cyrillic, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc.

Almost every time i try tap for next page, the program crashes :(

Samsung Galaxy S i9000, Froyo.

L.B.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
Hmmm.... this is really strange since you did manage to load the part you are currently viewing, my guess would be write permissions for that file, or possibly an issue with custom fonts or custom background image if you have specified any. Another likely reason could be due to the recent mess up I made with 1.32 to 1.35, where I changed the backup file placement system quite drastically.

Pls let me try to fix this by answering the following questions.

1) Does it happen in View mode only, or Edit mode only, or both?

2) Do the >> or << buttons work?

3) Does "GoTo" work?

4) How big is your file? It could be because there isn't enough space to save the backups.

5) Does this happen for every file, or just one particular file?

6) If (5), have you tried "Forget" on that file, then reloaded it?

If 5) and 6), then as a last resort, you can try deleting mnt/sdcard/.NeedToWrite, then reopen the file. But backup file data will be lost, so just make sure you save all your other files first.

Time zone where I am is midnight now, so I will not be able to reply you until 10 hrs later :),

New version 1.40!

NTW now talks! Comes with ability to adjust pitch, speech rate, and supported languages.

But be warned, I think Android's Text to Speech is a bit buggy, so the voice doesn't really respond consistently to my controls for pitch and speech rate.

Edit: I found out it does respond consistently, but I have to be patient and wait for the next sentence to play naturally, instead of pressing stop and play for instant replay :o
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
v1.41 is out. It only patches NTW crashing due to certain Text to Speech settings. Download if you encounter this crashing.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
Ok, I think I've solved the crashing problem some of you may be experiencing. Hopefully anyway......:(

v1.42

- Patches NTW crashing due to your phone's Text to Speech settings or lack of TTS.

- More encodings: ISO-2022 for JP, KR & CN. KOI-8R for russian.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
Heheheheh!!! Always wanted to implement multiple undo/redo, but only recently figured out how to do so efficiently :D :D :D

v1.45

- Multiple undo/redo! Undo History bar allows easy rewinding or fast forwarding of your changes, maxed at 9999 steps.

"Reset chunk" replaces the original Undo/Redo menu option.

Clicking of "Reset chunk" is recorded in Undo history.

Note: Free version has Undo history of only 1 in addition to "Reset chunk".

- Improved File Browser

- Streamlined File List interface.

Long press to view the preview, file properties, "Forget" and "Share" options.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
NTW v1.47 is out!

Basically, this update makes the search, goTo, and undo/redo operations much easier than before. It also makes much better use of the space at the top which was previously just showing the filename and current %.

- Implemented fast scroll thumbs for browser and NTW shelf .

- Icon toolbar for convenient undo/redo, goTo, search, load next/prev chunk. Long click of undo/redo buttons pop up the undo history bar. Click the % display to shwo the goTo dialog.

- Improved goTo function.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
NTW v1.48 is out!

- Fast scroll thumb for the main text box! (Built from scratch, whew! The behavior of ListView's fast scroll thumb was really tough to emulate properly :eek:)

- Search backwards in addition to searching forwards. Plus some tweaks to search behavior
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
v1.49 is out!

This is mostly tweaking the behavior, performance and efficiency of undo/redo, search and replace, and the cursor.

- Fixed search backwards so that it works for single char searches too.

- Tweaks to UI of file browser and File List when adding/forgetting files

- Changed Replace operation so it is more compatible with undo/redo

- Fixed the auto shifting of cursor interfering with delete by holding down delete key

- Minor cursor tweaks and speed enhancement to File List
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
V1.51 is out!

New features:

- Incredibly cool Viking android as fast scroll icon!

- Even more incredibly cool menu icons!

- Delete command now available in file browser. This should be useful if you sometimes find yourself itching to do some file clean up from within NTW itself.

- Adjustments to left and right indent seekbar range and auto fadeout time of fast scroll icon.

- Self-fading pop up dialog boxes for messages like successful save, successful overwrite, or other error messages. I made the fadeout time for non-error related messages quite fast, but if you still find them irritating, let me know and I'll program in a check box to toggle their existence.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
V1.52 is out!

Changes:

- File List now displays the file name only.

- Added shortcut to change "Encoding". Long press the main editing window to bring up the context menu, then select "Encoding Options".

- Ratings button, and my blog address :D added into Help

- Text cursor will no longer move along with the scrolling page.

- Tablet users should (hopefully) be able to find NTW in the Market now.

- NTW now supports only Android v 2.2 or higher. I think NTW was crashing for for v2.1.

I'm thinking I should probably move on to something else for now. Have an idea for an interesting variation of a file explorer.... :cool:

I'll get back to NTW as and when I have time, maybe improve the search and replace or the GoTo % accuracy etc.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:

- Patched some crash on start up bugs

- Changed iconsbar layout to uniform spacing

- Soft Menu button will now appear for tablets with no physical menu button

(I just hope what I did to solve this did not stop NTW from appearing in the Market Search results.)

:( Yes, I did it again... released a new version specifically to patch the last updated version :o, forgive my hasty uploads.
[Android Apps and Games] crandf:
