[Desire HD General] mat_1_uk:
Yep you read it right. My phone fell out of my door pocket and I drove over it with my rear wheel. How badly damaged is it ????? Well it wAs in one of those fake leather slip cases so no scratches the glass is ok and so is the touch screen but the LCD died.

Looked into prices to get it fixed on the net and they all quoted about £80 but my warranty will be void. So I phone htc they quoted about £100 but more like £150 if motherboard is damaged ( I think it's fine as I can receive calls and make it ring from sence.com).

So ups collected today and I will keep you informed of developments but so far I'm quite impressed with how tuff it's been.

Wish me luck.
[Desire HD General] ddulic:
Good luck m8 :) Wish ya nothing but the best :)
[Desire HD General] CitizenLee:
Good luck with the fix mate, it's always horrible when you drop or damage your phone!

[Desire HD General] Tensu9:
Omg! You have to admit that it is a little funny. I would be destroyed if that happened to my DHD. One question tho, how do you not hear it hit the ground?
[Desire HD General] AndroHero:
You need to buy an otterbox after you get it fixed :)
[Desire HD General] Evostance:
I would say he needs to get insurance :P
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Dude,I have to admit I admire you...If my DHD had gone through this I would have had a mental breakdown!It has only fallen down once and my heart was beating like it was playing drums until I realised it wasn't even scratched(tough one it is though! :D )!

Good luck! :)
[Desire HD General] MattSkeet:
My question is.... insurance?
[Desire HD General] panyan:
ooh, i feel for ya man - that is unlucky...

[Desire HD General] craigdhd:

[Desire HD General] mat_1_uk:
i know craig i see it as a good result lol. As for insurance i've never liked it on phones i find companys will do anything not to pay out. Waiting for email tomorrow to see what the score is and yes i was devastated but ya cant worry about it....
[Desire HD General] mat_1_uk:

[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Firstly good luck with it!

Secondly,no,it won't come back with Gingerbread.HTC haven't yet released it for the DHD so not even they can install it on a consumer's device.Patience... :)
[Desire HD General] irteza_h:
DHDs are tough .. .I dropped mine from my pocket and it fell flat with a sound that made my heart jump into my mouth. I was so sure it was dead , but it was working flawlessly. And today I dropped it again but its still fine not even a scratch. marvelous really!!!
[Desire HD General] mikecoffee:

Which was with a bit *****ing .... they tried to charge me £175 but ....

Still loving the phone but not taking it for a ride just yet lol
[G1 General] morseharry:
Hi,

Ive been using my Dream for some time, and have hit the inevitable lack of space for apps issue... Im running CM 6.1 Stable, so most of my apps are on the SD, but some, like widgeted apps etc are still on the phone memory. Along with my current on screen kayboard of choice, the excellent gingerbread keyboard. However, I very rarely use this, but do

need

it occasionally. Therefore, what alternative keyboard is the "smallest" ie will take up least memory on the phone? I use it very rarely, so I'm not too fussed over features etc.

Many thanks,

Harry
[G1 General] dhkr123:
Least memory? Your talk about where you are installing applications to suggests that you are actually looking for the one that takes up the least *STORAGE*. Memory = volatile, and loses its data when you reboot the phone. Storage = non-volatile, and keeps its data when you reboot the phone.

If you are not already doing so, I suggest searching the dev forum for "MTD" to find scripts by firerat for getting more internal storage.

Second, ODEX EVERYTHING. Your dalvik cache is a huge waste of storage space. There is a script around somewhere called "dexopt-wrapper". Run that against each of your APK files (dexopt-wrapper name.apk name.odex), REMOVE the "classes.dex" file from within the apk (the "zip" command from your desktop computer will do this...), and delete everything from /data/dalvik-cache. It will save you a TON of space.
[HTC Aria General] jacobas92:
I recently started using CM7 and noticed they recommend a newer gapps. I flashed it, and to my dismay it was the new market(I should have thought about that). Can I just reflash and use an older gapps package? Or would an older gapps cause any problems?

I just really hate the new market. Especially on the Aria.

(btw sorry if this was posted in the wrong section)
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
When you are running on the 'bleeding edge' and you want to try out the latest and greatest such as CM 7, you need to expect and embrace the changes that come with it and in this case the new market is one of those.

If you browse the CM 7 Development thread you will notice that several people had issues with CM 7 and the older gapps, so I would think trying to go back to the older gapps might cause you some problems.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
You could try unzipping the new and old gapps files, remove the new market and replace it with the old market and rezip and flash the new gapps.zip with the old market. Not saying it'll work, but it might be worth a try.
[HTC Aria General] jacobas92:
Ok, thanks for the replys. I'll give CallMeAria's method a shot and if I run into issues I'll just reflash.

EDIT

Ok that didn't work. Guess I'll just have to deal with it and learn to like the new market, lol.

And my first post kinda made me sound like a real d-bag. Thanks to all the devs working on CM!

Hi All

I want to create the facebook chat application like the following one

But I don't know how to do that because I am new to android development please any one help me how to do that
[Android Software Development] athornz:
Are you wanting to create a standalone application for facebook chat or a chat application similar to facebook chat?

If you are wanting to create a standalone facebook chat application you will need to look into whether facebook have a chat api you can access.

If they do, start by writing a super simple android app that connects to facebook chat and retrieves some kind of data.

And go from there.
[Android Software Development] aptgopal:

[Windows Phone 7 General] 1IV54IV3:
Hello.

I recognized a really bad bug concerning the zune marketplace:

Some weeks ago I bought some apps I uninstalled later on. Now I tried to install them again. So far, so good - should work - normally!

The marketplace tried to charge me FOR SOME OF THESE APPS again!

I called the hotline and they seemed to be pretty confused about that issue.

They tried to look back in my buying-history, but they could only reconstruct my history to the end of november. I bought my first apps one month earlier.

So Microsoft cannot see which apps I bought between the end of october till the end of november. I checked the history in zune on my notebook: I can only reconstruct my buyings from the end of december till now!

Microsoft told me to store all of my billing-emails to prove that I once bought my apps - in case I encounter this problem again in the future. I don´t wanna pay twice...

My english isn´t that good, I´m sorry ;-)

I have this problem whit my milestone 2:

when IConnect it to a working wi-fi it have no real connection.

it's new, I bought it 2 days ago.

I must to send it back for a sostitution or there is a soft way to fix this problem?

please help me!

[Milestone 2 General] skaburn:
ok, so the problem is an hardware problem? not a software one? I try a lot of wifi and I saw that only whit wpa-psk it's bugged (at my home I have that one...).

is there any method to understand if is an hardware problem? becouse I have buy it on expansys, and I prefer to not change the device if the new one will have the same problem.

thank you a lot!
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
skaburn, I have had an issue when using the router WPS, PIN or push to connect method as well. The connection was successful but no data flow so I had to manually connect and use the WPAx phrase and all was good ...
[Milestone 2 General] skaburn:
where can I entere my wpa phrase?
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
1. Navigate to: Settings->Wireless & Network Settings->Wi-Fi Settings

2. If you have the network SSID remembered then press and hold the entry until the popup menu appears and press forget network.

3. Press add network and enter the network SSID and press the security combobox and select the correct encryption/authorisation protocol.

4. Enter the password/passphrase and press save.

One other issue I remember was that my wifi router/cable model had the WiFi channel set to auto and it supported 13 channels. The Milestone 2 supports 1 to 11 channels so I manually set them both to 11 (can be any clear channel) just incase there was a problem with the auto-negotiation between the router and the phone.
[Milestone 2 General] skaburn:
Ok, thanks a lot, when i try I will share my result.

(Sorry for bad English)

edit:

thank you a lot! whit manual add of wifi, it doesn't work too

but whit the second way the problem is seems to be fixed!

I don't understand only one thing, i had to change the channel of peer to peer connection on 11, but the peer to peer connection is for a router? I thought that it is for a direct connection whit another device..

thank you again..

edit2: -.- connection failed! data still not pass on wifi! it seems to work, but after 5 minutes it doesn't send no more data....

Just activate the phone with Live. If activated, the Music & Video app in WP7 acts pretty much exactly like a ZuneHD, except for the channels feature of your ZunePass (if you have a ZunePass - which I do).

ZunePass is even integrated to play any music on the fly, and even grab your free 10 monthly songs.

Is there anyway to turn off the automatic market downloads that occur whenever you flash a new rom?

Whenever I wipe everything clean and install a new ROM I like to start with a fresh slate and selectively install apps... I HATE opening up market and seeing that its already auto downloading 80+ applications
[Droid X General] mikeinrichmond:
When you flash a new ROM and it takes you to the setup screen just 'skip' setting up your Google account and it won't auto d/l, or you can go into settings/applications/ and force close the market app as well.

I do the former mostly, and use Titanium Backup Pro to batch reinstall my apps..Or sometimes I'll just leave the phone on the desk and come back in a 1.2 hours and it's all done. Either way works. :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I believe the warning to be careful is because you do not want to restore system data if you are not on the same base rom. If you are just creating a backup so you can restore settings on the particular rom you are on, then back up all. If you are looking to backup apps, use titanium

I am in recovery, not ROM manager but I guess I can do it through there too. As long as I get it backed up, thats all that really matters I guess. I want to do a backup so if I go to a new ROM I want to try I can just restore my existing one if the new one doesnt work out.

He told me he rooted the nook color, and use a reset factory before sell me the nook. and now the product is new.

I Power On the nook color, choice my wifi connection = > OK

But i can't register ... and use the nook color :'(

i write my informations :

name/firstname, email and password, and i have a message :

"sorry we re having trouble setting up your nook color. Please shutdown the device and try again."

After reading some posts, i think that this guy registered his account, and now it will be impossible for me to use the Nook color ? :( :mad:

I don t know his NC mail/password ...

If someone can help me, thx by advance.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gedster314:
I saw that when I was typing the wrong account password. After you fail to login a few a times it just defaults to that even you it is a separate attempt to register.

Try going into /setting/device info/erase and deregister the device. or poweron while holping volume and home button at the same time.

If that does not work you can try doing a full reset. That's where you boot the device and a few seconds after the N logo appears you hold the power button to power it off and then reboot it. Do that 8 times and then during the boot process it will reflash the device.

Then do the deregister or power+vol up+home.
