[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] wardfan220:
impaler, I just looked at your battery mod, lol, I know "just". It looks pretty cool, I know you have plans to test it on the Shift, but what icons will there be available for stock rom use? I like the plain battery icon but with the numbers in it like in Cyanogen 6, is that in there?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes it is, and I do plan on supporting the shift and every phone when we get automation for the app going :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] wardfan220:
The sift? lol, j/k

Let me know if you need help testing it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, just fixed it, at least it didn't say something worse :p And yeah, will do on the testing :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
In spare parts there is an option to set the task manager to normal or aggressive. I never noticed this in my other phone. Is it along the same line as autokiller?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It should be, although not as customizable as Autokiller ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cloverdale:
It should be different. Autokiller is a min free manager, which is much different from task killers. At this point in the progress of android, a task killer will not do much, except drain the battery.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mfouco:
So I got two small scratches in my screen. You can barely see then but it got me wondering about scratch removers. Have any of you tried amy of them in your mytouch 4g's? Maybe when it gets a couple more of them, i'll buy one. I don't like screen protectors with my SLCDs.

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweak89:
Just curious, why the dislike of screen protectors? I'm certainly not a fan, but I prefer my screen stay scratch free.

As far as your question, if it's a deep enough scratch, not much you can really do about it. But for very minor ones, you can use a light grit polishing compound (or something called Jewelers Rouge), then buff it till it's clear. Probably more effort than its' worth, and if your not careful, you can make it worse!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cal3thousand:
The most abrasive thing I would put on this screen would be Novus Plastic scratch remover #2.

use at your own risk though.

I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum. This is a good way to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the HTC Thunderbolt. This includes, but is not limited to, people that are providing the following:

- Roms & Kitchens

- Programs & Apps

- Fixes & Tweaks

- Skins & Themes

- Tips & Tricks

I would like to request the help from other members to keep the thread in order and in check. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki. This will in turn save us from having to answer the same question a billion times...

I will probably be picking this device up. Will help cvpcs with porting his GEM series to the phone in whatever way I can. Some of you may have heard of Sapphire for the Droid 1, Ruby for the Incredible, etc. This will just be another extension of the same rom. I know he has already started on the vendor setup with the RUU leaks we have gotten.
[Thunderbolt General] oneders65:
When will Verizon start selling the Thunderbolt?
[Thunderbolt General] Whosdaman:
We are lead to believe it will be February 17th
[Thunderbolt General] NCX Designs:
While I'm hoping thats true, i don't see it being likely.

Launch day Droid Incredible owners that signed up for a 1 year like i did, our upgrade isn't eligible until Feb 26. I'm almost certain Verizon will time it for that, they did exactly that for the Droid X for the Droid 1 owners.

one of the great benefits of signing up for a 1 year agreement every year, subsidized pricing ftw!

of course they could also launch a special upgrade offer with the phone like they did when the Droid X launched seeing how this is there first LTE phone, but i guess we'll see
[Thunderbolt General] CPCookieMan:
How soon do you think root will come to this device? Should I buy it launch day? I have an HTC Droid Eris and my contract is up Feb 9.
[Thunderbolt General] PlankLongBeard:
If you wanna get technical... its the same MyTouch 4G / Desire HD processor and gpu. So all is well, you can run @paulobrien's Visionary App and Achieve Temp Root without Bricking! Once We Get the Clear - We Can Probably Perm Root Right From There =)

Granted some things may be different... but... I highly doubt it. Once root was acheived on the G2 it was a wildfire for the latest Generation of Snapdragons =p

Exactly what I came here looking for. Great answer, thanked!
[Thunderbolt General] jessegast:
Still new to Droid have some questions.

I'm a Cricket user and plan on getting the Thunderbolt. or a Bionic.. My questions are...

1. If I buy Thunderbolt, (for cricket) will I have issues as the phone has a sim for 4g LTE? meaning, will I not have date/time correct, or no data...

2. will I not get droid os updates or is that through the phone manufacturer?

3 If the phone is flashed to cricket, will I lose again when droid os updates.

these are probably everyday knowledge but, like I said, I'm new to the droid era.

I have more questions, but I'll do 3 at a time... :p

Thanks for your time.

2/14/11

I've heard both 2/14/11 and 2/24/11 for the on sale date. 2/14 coincides exactly w/my NE2 discount. Yay me.

Read 249.99 - assuming that is w/a 2 year agreement.

I have an Eris now, that I have rooted and love being able to flash ROMs on it, tweak it, etc., etc. and I'm hoping whatever new phone I end up with will also be rooted and have devs working diligently.

It's so much fun!!!
[Thunderbolt General] ACD168:
I am coming from the Incredible.. just made a pre order today at bestbuy, does anyone feel that the screen will be too big?
[Thunderbolt General] Omen87:
If you're not sure about the screen size, I would suggest going to a Sprint store and playing around with an Evo.
[Thunderbolt General] ZuneNinja!:
Absolutely not. Pocketnow.com had a recent hardware comparison video with the new Inspire 4G with at&t and the iphone 4. Im sure we all know here that the inspire 4g is close to the same phone (dhd) . They point out the inspire just a tiny bit bigger form factor wise than the iphone but the screen fills the entire surface area.
[Thunderbolt General] ACD168:
So with a two year contract from my Incredible I got about 5 months ago, you can upgrade after one year to re-new the two year contract right?
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
Man, I didn't realize how big this sucker is going to be, lol. I was in a store today and looked at the Droid 2 (I think), it has approximately the same measurements.

I'm coming from an Eris - the TBolt is 1/2" wider and not quite a 1/2" taller. Doesn't seem like much until you hold something comparable in your hand.

(I got my measurements from phonescoop)

Hmmmmm.

[Wildfire General] ROTFLMAO:
Hello, everyone!

First of all, I would to apologize for my poor english, but, unfortunally I'm Italian, so, I'm sorry for that!

Than I have a problem that I'm not able to resolve.

I've bought a wildfire and I upgraded the firmware to Froyo 2.2

Now I haven't root permissions

THE ISSUE:

I need to connect to my university's wireless, that uses a wpa-enterprise (EAP-TLS).

I downloaded and installed the .p12 with success.

So the wildfire is able to connect to the network.

The issue is that I need to set the proxy with an "automatic proxy configuration URL" (like the guidelines on the site's university say).

This is the url: "wpad.polimi.it/wpad.dat.

Well, I don't know how to set it.

(I think another way that can works is to set this adress: "proxy.polimi.it" and the port 8080.)

I try to set it through adb, with the command export http_proxy="proxy.polimi.it:8080", but it didn't work. (I tried also with "wpad"...., with same results).

So, does anyone know how to set proxy, without rooting?

Thank you very much!

PS: Well, at the time, I didn't know how much big is the stupid error of upgrading to official froyo. Really, I'm a n00b...
[Wildfire General] Koori90:
ho lo stesso problema alla stessa scuola.. android non gestisce il proxy come il pc, dice di specificare un indirizzo ip ed una porta, mentre il file wpad é un codice che rileva da solo l'indirizzo di proxy giusto
[Wildfire General] rita_la_cantaora:
proxy port?

Hi. In my university, we use proxy to acces internet, but the port is 3128, instead of 8080. Have you tried that?
[Wildfire General] username54321:
Try Opera Mobile if you just want internet browsing, you can set the proxy on the configure page by typing opera:config in the address bar.
[Wildfire General] ROTFLMAO:
Thank you for the answer, but the issue is that I didn't know how to set proxy without root permissions.

The port to setting in my school is 8080 and it is the only value which can allow you to connect to internet.

It works! It really works! Now I'm writing from university!

So man, thank you very much for tips, I think now I can help dudes in my same situation.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tzatlacael:
I know screen sizes are different, but as there is an app that changes the display density, i thought a couple files could be edited for a port of the MyTouch 4G to our Slide.

If it takes time to find out, could you guys at least tell what must I have to know to port a rom, and info about configurations of screen density.

Thanks, I hope for someone to reply, I really wish this can be possible, and others to enjoy it too if it can be done. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
It can be extremely difficult to fix the images. It's not just a simple resize, as the aspect ratios are different as well. It all depends. The mytouch 4g has a completely different hardware base. It probably wouldn't work. If you want a mytouch-style ROM why not just use the rooted stock ROM?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
They changed some things around on the 4G that we dont have, check out a vid and youll see em. it's not that much better but nice improvements.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Yes, I've seen the videos. It wouldn't work, the hardware is not the same and a lot of hardware is tied into the OS.

For example, it has apps having to do with the front facing camera, which the slide does not have. It has elements having to do with the fm radio, which it doesn't have, and of course, elements having to do with HSPA+, which we don't have. I imagine that if you even tried, not only would it not appear right, it would crash all the time.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tzatlacael:
Because it has Froyo and the Espresso UI, yea I gotta admit their hardware are different... still I feel like trying!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
I mean, it's POSSIBLE, but it probably would not look too great, after HOURS of work resizing images and de/recompiling APK's for the 9patches. It would probably have stability issues with the drastically different hardware, in fact, it's armv7, we're armv6, it may not even work, but replacing the kernel may fix it. I really don't know, but I don't think anyone is gonna pounce on the opportunity.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tzatlacael:
Yea, and I just checked more about its UI, I really thought it was like Sense of the HD Desire and a blend of Espresso.

Just the stock rooted rom is like MyTouch 4G,

Sense UI from HD Desire would be worth the attemp... But I guess that's a way different hardware so... :/
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
yeah that's like trying to get a V-8 engine from a veyron working in a 1990s camry. The desire hd has newer sense features compared to the ver on the desire(orig),evo,etc.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tzatlacael:
Yea, it's just that I thought that even with hard work, it could be done.

Currently i dont have a computer at home so i am doing all this from my Evo.

do a search for rooting based on your hboot and check out the wiki on unrevoked's website. Also in my friends list is Djrez and he puts out video walkthroughs of that stuff
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorComrade:
As far as I know unrevoked must be ran from a computer. Just download this and go here and download the HBoot drivers. Follow the instructions for installing the HBoot drivers and then run the first item you downloaded. Should work like a charm.

Is it possible for someone to make stock sense rosie with 5 options like launcher pro instead 3? I think many people would like to see that and it would give chefs more to work with.

Sense is a little complicated, not sure if somebody would like to try it out. Also there is a closed source problem

[Android Software Development] Futur Innovations:
So I am trying to use in intent to launch an app drawer (gridView of icons on device) from an image. I have an onClickListener for the image and the intent inside the listener. Like this:

ImageView sphere = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.sphere);

OnClickListener sphere_listener = new OnClickListener() {

public void onClick(View v) {

Intent i = new Intent( HomeTest3.this, Grid.class);

startActivity(i);

}

};

sphere.setOnClickListener(sphere_listener);

}

What am I doing wrong? The main activity (HomeTest3) shows up just fine, then when I click the image to launch the second activity (Grid) the app force-closes. I tried to see what was going wrong using the ddms, but all I could see was "Null Java Pointer Exception" or something like that. How do I fix this problem?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] geoffott:
I don't know if anyone else is interested, or even if I'm just a n00b that stumbled upon something that everyone else already knows, but I'm so happy that I had to share.

I tested out Iced_Glacier, but ended up missing some of the stock stuff (everything I don't need I disabled through terminal emulator); what I did like though, was the sleek Androidian theme available on the Rom. I extracted the content of the .zip file, perused it some, and found the Androidian.apk in with the other stock themes. I installed it using the package installer, then when I looked in my themes it was the first one!

Edit: It has been noted that the Androidian.apk is in the market; but the following still holds true:

CALLING ALL DEVELOPERS:

To all you developers out there:

I think it would be cool to have more themes zipped up nicely into .apk packages like this, it makes for really easy installation, and it's very non-invasive.

Hopefully someone else can benefit from this thread, I know I was excited in my own n00bness to figure something <even this simple> out.

Thanks to beanbean50 the link to the .apk is in post #7...
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Vinsane:
Cool. Good job! Mind sharing that theme apk and a few screen shots?

I'm still stock and the very reason you said is what's been holding me back from a custom rom too.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] woldy2:
that theme is in the android market
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] geoffott:
See, I told you my n00bness would shine through! :) OP has been edited to reflect this.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] famewolf:
"that theme" may be listed in the market but I've been trying for two days to actually download and install it. The download starts and then stops for no apparent reason with no error message, so does anyone have a link directly to the apk?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] geoffott:
You could always try to do the same thing I did in the OP... Extract it from a rom.

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] beanbean50:
is this what you're looking for...?
[Desire General] tkm89:
Hello everyone.

I've recently switched to the Data++ Hboot with 10MB cache. Ever since then I haven't been able to download large apps from the Market.

I was wondering how to make the Market save the APK's on the SD Card instead of the cache partition. If I remember correctly this has been implemented in a number of ROMs, including the Oxygen ROM to name one. Where would I change that?
[Desire General] Evil_Cid:
Sorry for deviating from the topic, but I have this strong urge to ask you this: How did you get 10MB cache with Data++? According to alpharev.nl, Data++ gives 5MB cache....

On a side note, I also have 10MB cache but my apps are installing fine (with a little help from A2SD).....how big are the apps you're trying to download? Maybe I haven't come across "big" ones yet...
[Desire General] tkm89:
Oh I see they've updated their website. I'm using an older version of Data++ (System 180M, Cache 10M, Data 261M). I still have the img plus a screenshot of the website to compare MD5, if you're interested.

Well, it was just a guess. Downloads to Angry Birds (both versions) and Rocket Bunnies are not working, to name a few. Since they're all over 10MB I assumed it was due to the smaller cache partition. I'm also using A2SD btw.
[Desire General] Evil_Cid:
Hmmm,they are not too big then (was expecting 20+MB).....I just downloaded those two apps couple of hours ago on my one and it's running fine even though I've only got 10MB cache.

Normally you'd need a file manager (like the one with Titanium backup or root explorer) to do the job of moving .apk files to SD..these are normally stored in /data/app inside the internal memory and requires root access to get them...but the files must be downloaded in the first place.

Is your system up-to-date? I too had similar problems until I did a complete flash-over and updated everything.... unfortunately I didn't work out the cause of it :(
[Desire General] tkm89:
Oh I see, I was under the impression the apks get saved on the cache partition. In that case, I should look for the problem elsewhere. Yes, I'm running the latest Sense ROM (2.29 with the 5 ending), but modified to suit my needs. I guess it could be related to that.

More info about the 'non-downloading'. When I click on install in the Market, the download icon appears quickly in the notification bar and then quickly disappears. Was this the same problem you were having?
[Desire General] Evil_Cid:
In short....yes...that was the main sympton I had....the download icon disappears quickly....and it only happened to some of the apps

Have you tried rebooting the phone?...
[Desire General] tkm89:
Yes, tried that. Also tried clearing the dalvik cache and cache but with no success. I have found this while looking for a solution on Google. Seems someone else is having the exact same problem.
[Desire General] Evil_Cid:
Hmm, yea. The thing that's really frustrating is I still don't know what the problem was in my case..if I did I could've been a little bit more helpful. In my "rage" I just flashed a new kernel and a new ROM and that sorted out the problem for me....didn't stop to wonder what was actually causing it.

EDIT: I think changing the kernel, especially, did it for me...
[Desire General] Number22:
Hmm…

I have the same problem (except my /cache is 3MB so I can't download files larger than that).

Funny though, it used to work just fine (I have Angry Birds and flash for example), it has only recently started to act up.

If anyone finds a solution (possibly without flashing), I'll be quite grateful :p

P.S.

When my download fails (downloading icon simply disappears), my logcat shows DownloadManager reporting that there is not enough space (with about 60MB on /data) and then Vending complains about the file not being found (because DownloadManager didn't download it).

Seems like a bug in DownloadManager to me. It probably doesn't look up the cache (mine is in /data/cache IIRC) but uses the free space on /cache to determine if there is enough to fit the .apk.
[Desire General] kecinzer:
I'm now working on same think. Need to Market downloading apps to SD card instead of /cache. So is there any tweak for this?
[Desire General] Number22:
Yep.

Requires a little bit of knowledge about how linux handles mount points.

Basically, the easiest way is to bind mount a folder on the sdcard/data to /cache.
