after some testing with some rom out there i can say that android market is kinda bugged.

everytime i reboot my phone and i open market, all my apps are gone. Nothing is listed in download page of market. Every time i need to clear market data and restart it. Any fix for it? Can be related to the new directory of /dbdata/databases and not data/data?

thx

What is the story with APT-X? I am starting to see bluetooth headphones and other "receivers" supporting this, but I am not finding any information on which phones, mp3 players, or other "transmitters" support APT-X. Can anybody shed any light on this subject?
[General Questions and Answers] Michael_W_L:

[General Questions and Answers] BigBoppa:
apt-X is a lossless codec for bluetooth audio, MUCH better than A2DP.

If htc (for example) want´s to pimp a phone with it, they have to pay licence fee to CSR. As there are only a few bt receiver with apt-X, they will not pay and implement it (instead they get crappy "beats")

I think, apt-X is only a kernel-driver, no hardware, but not sure about this.

If so, a kernel chef could cook some additional codec in, but this is not open source codec...

I would LOVE an apt-X enhanced bt kernel for my sensation! :D

Sort of getting forced into an upgrade, as need to get it sorted before 1st feb ( as with T-mobile UK that means 500mb vs 3GB )

Currently got a touch pro2 , had windows phones for over 5 years now. But not really liking win 7 phones, seem very restrictive, and theres not that many good deals about.

But on with my Questions.

1. Does Hotmail sync, so i get instant notifications as new emails arrive?

2. Can i back up all my calander entries and transfer them across?

3. I use opera mobile 10, can i copy my favorites across?

4. Is it possible to copy over my texts and contacts as these are all backup and saved via microsoft myphone

Apps & software

5. sat nav, a biggy, i have used TomTom since my ipaq ppc days, and nothing else, is there something compareable on android? not a data based one , needs to have maps on the SD card, for the UK & cover the rest of europe.

6. an equiverlent free app to midomi ( ie record a 10 second clip of a tune, and display the details of the tune ) that works well.

7. A radio station streamer app, that allows you to enter your own urls, as in .pls links.
[General Questions and Answers] olyloh6696:
I was in the same dilemma as you a few months back. i was a hardcore WM fan, but decided to make the switch to Android. i never looked back. Once you experience android it is like a completely experience. i got a galaxy tab, and kept my tg01 just incase i didn't like android, but now i would definetely let android be my next primary phone. if you want to experience android yourself, try out a ROM for your tp2.

like you, i dislike wp7, it is so restricted. Android is open source there is so much you can do for it.

My next phone will be a android, no doubt, possibly those dual core ones . i suggest waiting till after march when the dual cores are released.

Hope this helps mate :)
[General Questions and Answers] missparker76:
1. Yes you can configure Hotmail with Exchange to have push mail. I've only tried it for a short time and received several times the same message so can't tell you if that was a one-time bug or if it is usual. Anyway you can still configure a reception in POP every 5 minutes.

But you'll have the best of Android experience if you use a Gmail account instead. The push works really nice.

2. You can use Google Sync to transfer all your calendar from WM to Android.

3. Sprite Migrate allows the transfer of bookmarks but I don't remember which browser favorites it transfers.

4. For contacts you can use either Google Sync or Sprite Migrate. For your texts do you mean .doc? Maybe you could transfer them to your PC then to Google Documents and you'll have access to them via GDocs on your phone?

The real bad point in Android is that there is no real Office application like in WM. Documents to Go and Quick Office are either paid applications or not as good as in WM IMO.

5. There are several applications: Google Maps Navigation, Navigon for example. On HTC Desire Z and HD they have included offline maps on the SD card. I don't know for other brands devices.

6. Soundhound is the equivalent. It's free and you can now search for an unimited amount of songs :)

7. I don't use the radio feature so can't give you much information but I'd be surprised that it doesn't exist. Other people will probably give your more information about that ;)

tried, but wasnt great on the tp2, so didnt go intall installing apps and stuff.

Would like to wait, but with t-mobile changing there term from the 1st feb, that would only leave me with 3 as a network with a decent data package

No what I meant is that I've tried both Documents To Go and Quick Office and they are less complete than the Office application in WM.

[General Questions and Answers] dgaud007:
I'm in that stage right now where my contract expires 2/20 and I'll probably wait a bit for the Atrix. However, I've been searching for these things in Android:

1. Pocket Dictionary / Japanese Language Input - I'm taking Japanese classes, so I use the Japanese SIP where you can use the stylus to draw the furigana characters, etc.

2. Cash Organizer - Apparently they're not releasing an Android version. Any financial software as good as CO?

3. Pocket Player - Anything even close to this? Random visualizations, skinning, library manager?

4. Outlook Tasks APP & SYNC - I use tasks to document everything, whether in the phone, or in the PC, and then just sync everything together with Outlook. Is there a standard task app that could sync with Outlook in the PC? With the categories?

5. G-Alarm - is there an equivalent? random mazes and math problems for snooze?

And let's not forget Spacetime, the HP48GX Emulator, and Pocket Stars!? Maybe it would just be better to start working on WINE for Android :eek:

Hey. i've been looking for an android phone that fits my budget right now, wich btw, it's not very high hahaha. i've been offered this HTC touch pro 2 in a really chep price, new and in it's CDMA version. I know i'ts a bit old but it fits my needs. BUT as i said before, i'm looking for an android phone. surfing around the web i've seen a few videos and sites talking about these "ports" that enabale you to have even Android 2.3 on this cellphone.

so, my question is, and i would really apreciate to be answered with simplle words (yes, i'm kind of noob with these smartphones, in fact this would be my first one), Is this possible? after getting my HTC TP2 will i be able to enjoy at least of android 2.2?

thanks in advance

[General Questions and Answers] manveruppd:
Not without ActiveSync AFAIK... there might be, but I don't know it, and ActiveSync is free and very easy to set up! Set up Activesync, sync your WinMo phone to Outlook, and then either sync your new Android phone to Outlook OR use Google Calendar Sync to sync Outlook to GMail and then sync the Android phone to GMail's calendar. (Don't do both or you'll get duplicate entries!:p)

Personally I prefer Outlook's calendar (more feature-complete and can handle recurring events better), but I can't deny that it's much easier having your calendar in the cloud, letting the phone sync with it from anywhere, and being able to log in from any PC to check it even if your phone has run out of battery!

I have two problems I want to ask about.

First YouTube HD from evolution dump. After playing a video, I can't exit with softkey and go back to the selection of videos.

Also, when I install one of the Korean ime keyboards. I can't switch to Korean as the keyboard simply closes when I do so.

Tux in advance!!

[Nook Color General] MACLUIS1:
Don't know about You Tube HD. But the keyboard issue is posted somewhere here. You have to copy the keyboard APk to /system/apps and for that you need to have r/w permissions to the system folder. It's easier for me using (mount remount r/w and root explorer, both available on Market) without any ADBing. By the way there's a Thai keyboard (Tswipe). It rocks. It's way better than SlideIt. I'm not say you speak Thai, but for the English part it's super. Would like to know If anybody has bought it and not had any problems?.

If you use dingul (딩굴 black or silver) or milgeegle, the following should work.

You can download dingul hanguls on

cafe.naver.com/dingulhangul/175

In your terminal,

$ adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db

$ sqlite3 settings.db

sqlite> update secure set value='com.android.inputmethod.latin/.LatinIME:com.android.inputmethod.gbltn/.LatinIME:com.dingulHangul.dingulHangulKeyboard_dinki_black/.SoftKeyboard:com.dingulHangul.dingulHangulKeyboard_dinki/.SoftKeyboard:com.itvers.milgeegle/.SoftKeyboard' where name='enabled_input_methods';

sqlite> update secure set value='com.android.inputmethod.latin/.LatinIME' where name='default_input_method';

sqlite> .q

$ adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

$ adb reboot

Then, in NookColor Tools, you should change your keyboard to Hangul.

I have a quick question regarding GSM bands.

I'm using the Bell i9000M (on 850/1900 band) right now, and planning on unlocking my phone and taking it to Spain for a vacation.

In Spain the GSM band they use is 900/1800. I know my phone is compatible with GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and HSDPA 900/1900/2100. Will my phone search for those bands and switch automatically when I put in a SIM card from Spain? Or is there something that I need to configure within the phone?

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] Karine:
After opening and closing the door over the SD card slot many times while experimenting with rooting, the door will no longer stay closed and instead flaps. The only way I can keep it closed is with a piece of tape. All of the parts appear to be present and in good condition, it just seems that the magnet either isn't making contact or isn't strong enough.

Is anyone else having this problem and does anyone know how to fix it?
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Perhaps you lost that small earth magnet on the flap it self ?
[Nook Color General] Karine:
I do see a small, circular piece of metal on the center of the flap, which I think is the magnet.
[Nook Color General] Karine:
Does anyone have any assistance they can provide?
[Nook Color General] bugeyed1:
Use some steel & check to see if the magnet is there. Then check to see if maybe the metal that it touches is intact. Make sure that your SD card is fully inserted & not interfering.

Cheers,

kev
[Nook Color General] yossarian229:
A small piece of chewing gum? J/K.

I had this happen to me when I first started messing around with rooting. As someone said above, check to make sure that the sd card is inserted all the way. Mine was sticking out just enough to keep it from fastening all the way.

I wasn't too worried about it though because I have one of the book-like covers that would have held it in place anyway.

I really don't like the way they designed the whole belt loop door thing..

[Nook Color General] yossarian229:
Definitely agree. It adds a certain style to the device but it creates an annoyance to function.
[Nook Color General] riffrafff:
The little silver disk in the grey hard plastic piece is obviously a magnet. What I found interesting is that the "landing zone" for that magnet is also magnetic, but to a lesser degree. Perhaps the steel bit near the microSD slot is slowly becoming magnetized? That might account for the flap closure failing.

I held a ferrous chain from a keychain (very lightweight) near the slot and it swung right over to the spot where the magnet would sit, if the flap was closed (in case you're wondering how I determined that it, too, was magnetic).

Anyway, I thought that was interesting.
[Nook Color General] ndiniz:
Does anyone know how to put the door back on if it's accidentally removed?

guessing you have to slide each half of the two pieces of plastic back into the notch... but seeing what the piece looks like out would better help see how it is intended to be secured.

To be honest with you i agree with them. Different builds have different advantages and disadvantages... none are perfect. But some are pretty close. Im currently using Cognition 3.0.2 And i love it. Unfortunately i like customizing to the max and myself nor anyone else can figure out how to change/add a boot sound. Still a few minor issues with gps but overall its a pretty solid rom. Then again as you above me said... im also always changing roms and i have no intentions of sticking to one as they change so often. It really is a matter of personal preference.

[G2 and Desire Z General] kennypu:
Hey,

for some reason, I can't use the microphone on any earphone/headphones with an inline mic. The audio output is fine, I can hear the sounds through my earphones. The mic, however, does not work. The main play/pause button on my earphones work as well, but the volume buttons don't.

Weird thing is, even the earphones that come with the G2 does not work, this is obviously a software problem. Is there a known fix or is there an app or something I can download to fix this problem?

Some specific problems:

sometimes when I am calling someone and I use my headphones, the mic on the phone stop working. I'm assuming the phone detects that an earphone with a inline mic is plugged in, thus turning off the one on the phone, but obviously this just ends up with them not being able to hear me at all.

In the sound recorder(where I have been checking whether the mics were working or not), the recorder doesn't detect my mic on the earphones, but it "hears" everytime I press a button on the inline mic which is interesting.

Hopefully someone has gotten this to work. I'm running CM 6.1, the specific earphones I'm trying to get working is skullcandy 50/50s (which is meant for iphone, but i've heard that iphone earphones work too). Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
That's been an issue for some people. My old wired headset that came with my Cliq does the same thing - audio mic is bypassed and mic on the phone is used instead.

The wired headset that came with the G2 works fine for me though. Tested it every which way with my wife on the phone and always got audio with the headset mic.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kennypu:
skeptical, I tried using the one that came with the G2 again, and magically it worked. I know that the whole audio/mic thing is still buggy, I probably tested it before when it was acting up. Looks like a lot of people are having success with skullcandy's FMJs so I think i'll go try them out.
[G2 and Desire Z General] theorifice:
I had a similar issue and I heard that wired headsets (iphone compatible) work on Stock, so I nandroided and went back to stock from Cyanogen and the headset mic worked fine, so it might be a cyanogen specific issue.
