Not familiar with you as a Mod, but looking forward to getting to know you better! Hmm, this makes it sound like I know he or she in real life :p
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'm hoping you don't know me in real life! :p And if you do, don't give away my FBI secret identity please! :eek: :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I've actually been following you IRL. Nice hat. Also: I've informed the Mob of your whereabouts and have been assured they are going to 'take good care of' you.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
That would explain the diminutive Italian man with the pinstripe suit who was behind me today with a revolver :eek: :p
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BuddahWolf01:
What up impaler? I tried sammy for almost 30 days, then this bad boy came out... now I'm locked in to the Shift.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hey, so long as you eventually use some of my work, I'm happy :p :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BuddahWolf01:
If you need any help on that website of yours, just let me know because that is what I went to school, and am looking for a job doing.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hmmm.... I may have to take you up on that offer.....
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
glad to see you. sorry had to pass on the epic:p
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
:p Well, I guess I can forgive you :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
The sales rep told me it has 2cameras. Do they even know squat about what they are selling lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Probably not :) I took my themed hero in once and the guy commented and said how nice of a job htc had done with the ui : rolleyes:

Sent from a truly Epic phone!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Every one should use some of your work. Its phenomenal!

When me and the guy brought in our phones to be traded, my epic was stock rooted and his evo was running a custom rom with a custom boot. The sales rep stared at the boot animation (which said Fresh, the name of the rom) and said it looked cool. Another time I brought in my epic to have them look at the sliding microusb cover when I was running cm6 and that rep told me he asked what app I was using to make it look like that. I told him Launcher Pro. He said he should check that out. Sprint fail.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BuddahWolf01:
I love my sprint store! They don't know much about the root/mod side of stuff, so when I go in I teach them things haha. The owner was explaining my Transform when I got it and he was nice enough to not install any sprint ID's on it because he did know it slowed the phone down. Pretty awesome.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I thought sprint ID came stock from the manufacturer...?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thanks man, I really appreciate that :D

Poor sprint.... So you ran fresh rom too on the evo? That was my first custom rom on the hero :)

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] wardfan220:
Welcome aboard the Shift board impaler, too bad you chose the Epic, lol. I was actually looking at the Epic for my wife, but with all the issues with the Moment I decided I would stay away from Samsung. I've had good luck with my Hero and I have some friends that have had other HTC phones which have all been good for them, so I'm fond of HTC. But from what I can tell the Epic is a bad ass phone and doesn't have any real issues that I know of.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thanks man, and yeah, I love my epic, only flaw is lack of developer support :o htc is great too though, and im glad to see you here with some familiar hero faces :D

Sent from a truly Epic phone!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BuddahWolf01:
Yes and no, the Sprint ID "app" and home screen button (next to app drawer) come stuck on the phone, but you aren't required to download any of the ID's from sprint. After seeing some stuff I had done with the hero, he was just like, "I didn't actually install any of the ID's because they can make the phone run slower. Feel free to try them out if you want."

The first thing I did was install ADW launcher. Then when I went back in to switch that phone for the Shift I told him he could suggest ADW or Launcher Pro to people buying the sprint ID phones, and he wrote it down and said he was gonna check it out.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
My shift is on the truck. My next post will be shifted!!! (Maybe i wont have to fix any misspelled words lol)

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] wardfan220:
LOL, usually my UPS driver gets to my house at 6:00pm almost on the dot, today my wife woke me up at 3 with my new Shift, lucky me. Maybe you got my driver today :p
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nice! Tell us how you like it when you mess around with it some more :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
After some adw and widget locker I'm lovin it!!!!!!!!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nice :) I have ADWex on my Epic and love it :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
Needs root,miss ad free. Havemt seen ads in a while
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] wardfan220:
I know the root I can live without really except for adfree, I hate all the adds.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Adfree is one of the top apps IMHO, really nice tool
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
My best friend bhas a captivate and another friend has an evo. Personal opion until I get them side by side,this seems faster and no lag at all!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Ya its definitely a quick little phone. I'm glad you like it man, I'm really hoping it gets root soon as my wife is dying to get rid of her Sprint bloat.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
You can! Even with temp root :) Check out the thread in dev, can't remember which one, might be the one talking about perm. root :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] vampir4997:
It says z4root works for temp,but a few people have had issues with it. Personally I'm just gonna wait

Post 120, bottom of the page. I can confirm this does work.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, that's the link I wanted ;) :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Ya I read that but I don't think I often have enough time with my wife's phone to do such a drawn out process. Maybe I'll let her take my phone with her to work tomorrow and I'll steal hers and try to get it done.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Cool cool... I wonder if my transparent apps will work on the shift... anyone want to test for me? Please? :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Depends, what is the worst that'll happen? My wife'd kill me if I hurt her phone. I have the RUU but I have *no* idea how to use it lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, I'd wait until you have nandroid then :p :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Fair enough...I hate not being able to test things out on her device =( I love testing things for people. If you want to dev anything for the evo I'd test it for you in a heartbeat. I have NANDroid backups for like 5 different rom set ups lol

I assume all you have to do to use a RUU though is plug the phone in, load up bootloader and run it (having sync installed is just for the drivers? another assumption lol)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hmmm... actually, I'd like to know if the transparent Genie Widget works on the Evo, so long as you're on 2.2, I'd like to know :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jesusice:
Where they at? What are they?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
See my sig for full details ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Am I right about this?

Ya I'll give it a shot. I'm on gingerbread atm but I can flash back to cm6.1.2 or something else. Would you rather I test it on CM or a Sense based rom?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
CM :) Thanks man :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
KK making a quick nandroid just to be safe and then I'll flash back to CM6.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jesusice:
Ahhh... would've def noticed that had I not been on TT. I do want to try but.. I don't even use those widgets.. and I've got all the crap removed just as I like it... damn temp root...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Awesome, thanks again man :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, that's cool, just want to see how many phones it'll work on :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Just cause you don't use em doesn't mean you can't test em! lol I've tested scripts for things I don't use (of course I first installed what I needed to have for the script to work)!

Its no problem man, like I said I love testing things. I tested a few things on the epic before I dropped it. lol I even let Drockstar sift through my phone via adb for a couple hours testing a script he made. You know I've installed a few of your markets and that they work great, right? Haven't tried your batt mods. Mayhaps I'll try one during this flash back.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
No I didn't know that lol! Thanks man, glad you like 'em :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Mhm, tried it on both Sense (Myn, Fresh, EViO) and AOSP (CM and MIUI) so you can add those to your compatibility.

So I pushed the two widgets to my system/apps and rebooted and now neither shows up in my list of widgets lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nice! Thanks man, I'm thinking of moving it to android themes general if it works with enough phones :) Do you like them?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Ya I love em. You do great work man. Sadly, however, I fell in love with a new theme (white, Lime-ish green, and black) and I didn't see one that matched... =(

Also, the widgets in the widget list disappeared.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
On the markets or the widgets? Because there's a neon green on the market ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
This is what happened^

Ya I was using the neon one for a couple days. The green is a little too bright and the black makes it a little a little too dark.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ah ok, so it didn't work? Meh :p
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I'm not really sure lol, no force closes =P Perhaps they're just so transparent they're invisible o.o
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, they'd show up in the widget list though :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
They're so invisible they don't show up there! =P

Btw downloading your batt mod to give it a shot before I go back to CM7. Got the donation version cause I love your work =)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'd give you a thanks but I'm out for the day :o So thank you :) Lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
No thank you man, you're really great at what you do. If I had more to give I would but alas being an unemployed college senior is not cheap =/ lol

Odd, its stuck at authorizing. Perhaps a reboot will help.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well, I see in the dev panel the payment went through, maybe just wait a second?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I let it sit at authorization for like 5 minutes so I'm restoring a nandroid for CM6 and I'll give it another shot. If it doesn't work meh it was a donation and I can't try it for you =)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It'll work, even if you have to reboot :) Make sure you're on CM 6.1.2 for the Evo also, that's the build the icon is made for :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
mhm that's what I'm on. I can give it a shot on CM7 too if you want =P
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Restored the backup and it downloaded like a champ. I think the changes I made might have screwed something up, not really sure. Rebooting now.

Worked but there is an image issue. Using the gingerbread style the battery icon is tiny and the numbers are outside of the bar. I'll post a SS in a sec.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Also, it seems to have changed my background lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
You need to turn the battery numbers off in cm settings :)

Hi i have a u20a in december i install the u20i firmware but after time the system start to go slow and crash sometimes. After i install the singapore u20a 2.1 firmware but also have the same problem, after install the brazilian u20a 2.1 but still have the same problem, someone can post the u20a 1.6 firmware to upgrade to my 2.1 local.

I have this SI 1240-1185, if someone can help me pleas.

Also the 3.5G is not working thanks.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ayewhy:
Just an idea... why don't you try to install xRecovery, boot in to xRecovery and wipe the cache partitions -- may be I am wrong but possibly this could speed things up.

Also be careful about how many SMS text messages you are keeping. I think if there are too many it causes a slow down. Evrey time I get over 500 I back them up and delete them all.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marweb:
Xrecovery adb install

Someone have the guide to install xrecovery step by step using adb android sdk, my phone is rooted with z4root, and why you say the sms qty put the system slow, i cant belive this!!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ayewhy:
Just something that I noticed on my phone - don't know why it happens. After about 1000 texts it slows down opening, replying messages and I hate the lag. So I back them up and delete them all. I think I have seen posts here with others having the same problems, but its not just U20 phones with this problem I think it happens on a lot of Android phones. I could be wrong!

How do I get my music player to not play my ringtones? I have them in a separate folder yet they still play. Do i just have to rely on playlists?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Try creating an empty text file named .nomedia place it in the folder with your ringtones.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
Seems to have worked thank you!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
Now all my ringtones are canceled out :/
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragno Croft:
Back when I used to own an HTC Titan, I had to put my ringtones inside of the Windows Folder to make them be recognized as ringtones, and that used to work well for me to prevent windows media player to read them.

Here in android, I'm thinking it might be similar, but I'n a noob in android and I don't know the OS structure very well, so I hope this makes sense to someone and can reply back to us.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Ok sorry about that didn't think it would block them from being seen as ringtones all together. As the post above states mabey putting them in the system ringtone folder might let them be ringtones but not be recognized by media player. To do this you will need to be rooted and then move them to /system/media/audio/ringtones. Just throwing stuff out there i'm still pretty noobish.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
Yeah i will try that with root explorer.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
Yup. Threw them into system/media/notifications
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
Nope system wont recognize them in that folder

I have a question. Ive been doing web development for two years now. I would say I am at an expert level in XHTML/HTML and CSS, and I know a little bit of basic PHP. I want to get into Android app development, but I have no idea where to begin. What language do I need to learn? Java?

Should I become more comfortable with PHP first, does it matter?

Sorry for the noob question. I am just interested in hearing from some other devs about this, any advice is appreciated.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heathmcabee:
Yes, you will need to learn Java programming language. SDK

Here's a video tutorial to get you started in application development in android.

http://www.xtensivearts.com/2009/07/03/episode-1-getting-started/
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechicgeak:
Learn Java, XML, and the inner workings of Android / Linux at the bare minimum. You should be able to make something simple and worthwhile with just that. Once you do, you should learn some basic computer science concepts, such as procedural programming, oo programming, algorithms, data structures, and basc compiler theory. Lastly, you should learn C/C++ and how they hook into Java using JNI. At that point, you could make something really sweet.

Application development is hard and it, in many ways, is a different beast from web deveopment. Experience with HTML / CSS will come in handy when dealing with the XML files. Experience with PHP an Javascript will aid you in learning Java.

I have heard that a true hacker knows at least five different programming languages ( sorry HTML and CSS don't count for that ;) ), and most really good programmers know more. Once you understand the concepts behind programming, and exactly how the code you type becomes binary code that your computer executes, picking up new languages is a breeze.
