[General Questions and Answers] SteveCheeseman:
So when install a new rom, its a clean install so theres no apps or anthing.

to get all the apps back i just appbrain and install all the apps that i have sync'd from my previous rom.

this takes FORRREEVVVVEERRRR because it prompts me to install each app one by one from the market.

theres got to be a better way to do this.

i cant seem to find anything though, some people said to use titanium backup but that was even slower because it takes longer to prompt you to install each app.

is there some way that you can install a whole group in one go.

also assuming that i go from a 2.2 rom to a 2.2 rom, the apps that i have installed on my sd card, will they remain installed after i flash a new rom?

please help this would be flashing such a easier process!!!!

oh and i have a rogers captivate i896 on rogers.

thanks in advance guys!

Backup to your desktop before you flash, wipe, then use adb to mass install the apps. Cd to the folder you saved your apps in, "adb install *" should do the trick.
[General Questions and Answers] SteveCheeseman:
Could someone point me the direction of some tutorial or guide on how to do this as I'm not to comfortable with adb
[General Questions and Answers] jamesra83:
I would also suggest Titanium Backup. Appbrain is a pain because it asks you to accept and download the apps one by one. But with Titanium Backup you just go to the backup screen then do a batch reinstall of all missing apps. Plus, if you choose to you can also back up the data with the apps. So once you choose to reinstall the apps there is also an option that says reinstall apps + data. it might take about 5 min. depending on how many apps you have, but its just a push of one button. As far as the apps staying on your SD card, I don't believe they stay there. The only apps that stay are in the market and they are your purchased apps. Unless your using a new rom, sometimes the sprint apps are taken out and put on the sd card. Hope I helped. Take care.

I am making a game that has a main.xml view (the default one that the game screen is made from. But I have a button for "help" that starts a new view which is just text explaining how to play the game. But I want to add a button to the help menu that will take the user back to the main game. Only problem is when I add a button to the xml file for it, it always crashes as soon as it is called. All the other buttons work fine in main.xml but I cant get the ones in the help.xml to work. Any suggestions?
[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
The way that android's view hierarchy works is actually kind of complicated, and is one thing that I still at times struggle to grasp.

So when you press the help button, and help.xml is supposed to show up, it crashes?
[Android Software Development] hyperbyteX:
yeah, heres my xml code:

But it crashes if theres a button inside of it
[Android Software Development] Dan2552:
are you using the new layout in the same Activity or a new one? If the same, try out making a new Activity class (remember to add it to manifest!), it might be a lot easier to then determine your problem if it's separate.

We could do with a logcat output of the crash to help determine what's wrong

Yes, you will. But the OTA doesn't come to everyone at once, it may take up to a month for you to get it from T-Mobile.. It will be posted here though, so you might as well just stick with the ROM you are on for now :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoff_ramsay:
Does anyone have experience with a ROM that will support that official car dock?

What level of support? Ideally I'd like to find one that will launch the car dock app. It would be even better if I could get it to launch the Google car app, rather than the HTC one, which doesn't seem to have a 'speak destination' button.

If nothing else, I may settle for 'doesn't force the phone to reboot when inserted'.

Appreciate your suggestions!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoff_ramsay:
Looks like LeeDroid is a winner.

I'm not sure if my crashing problem was caused by Desire HD ports or not.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martijn_bakker:
I've been using NextSense, OpenDesire and MIUI-Au (in that order) with the car dock. None of them rebooted, but none of them automatically activated the car app either (probably because I've never used the HTC car dock and always used the Google one).

The Google car app has a function that enables it when a particular BT device is detected. That's what I use. So my phone goes into car mode when it sees the Parrot BT carkit. That works pretty well (now to automatically disable car mode... that doesn't work yet).

The Google car dock is in the standard Google app pack (gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip). You'll need CarHomeGoogle.apk and CarHomeLauncher.apk.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hahutzy:
Hi I just got a TMOUS HD2 recently, and it's stock on WM6.5. It currently has a broken screen so I'll have to fix that first, but when I do, I want to flash to a NAND Android build.

I checked out the forum over at NAND Android Dev, and there's gotta be over 100's of builds there.

I just want one that's either Froyo or Gingerbread, stock and stable.

Is there a single build that I should be looking at? Or is it that I can't go wrong with any of the builds?

Thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] joshk1025:
As you obviously noticed, there are many NAND roms out there... the reason that there are so many is that different people prefer different things. You should really try out a few, so you get a feel for what you like. Do you prefer Gingerbread or Froyo? Sense or no sense? Then there are all the different rom bases... A good place to start (I think) is with MDJ's Cyanogenmod gingebread build MDJ 2.5. Its what I use and its been fast, stable, and had great battery life so far.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hahutzy:
Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm not too sure if I have this right, but I believe TMOUS and HTC roms cannot be mixed, right? Is the CyanogenMod for TMOUS? And how can I tell whether a rom is for which version of the phone?

darkstone's supernand build is plain froyo but it's highly experimental, and when I tried it there were some severe lag at some spots, despite the super high quadrant marks.

There are several gingerbread builds. The two stock one that comes to mind are tytung's and iamgpc's build. MDJ's is a cyanogenmod build, not sure about the hyperdroid. I can't say any of the gingerbread builds can be called stable, since the gps is very iffy. If you don't mind that then they're getting pretty good.

Hello,

My droid pro is about a month old now. It gets great battery life most of the time but occasionally i'll hear the dreaded battery sound and when i grab it it's very hot and usually locked up.

I rebooted the device and it's fine again but this is happening about once a week.

The phone is not rooted in any way and has the latest motorola update on it.

I've downoaded z4root, busybox, terminal and titanium backup.

I Just bought a used X10 (my second one), it seamed to work fine (tested it without sim), except that two days later when I finally had the time to actually put a sim card in it to use it, the phone started rebooting randomly, it seemed like it happened when it tried to go to 3G, and since the punk who sold it to me was running a custom rom, I thought a simple SEUS flash would fix it.

After running SEUS, it crashed right before the end saying update had failed (the download went fine it's not an internet problem) after that, the phone stopped working, when I turn it on, the screen won't come on.

After flashing it with different roms, still the same problem, with certain roms (the newest ones) I get the little warning icon and then pitch black again...

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] decoy_56:
I’m very new to programming, but I wanted to see if I can write a simple application that uses a dictionary API to query a server somewhere (if I said that right). I have some ideas for a few more difficult apps so I wanted to start with this simple one.

I’m mostly using Expression Blend to create these apps.

The first thing I would like to know is:

* How do I use a wp7 icon (from the icon pack) as a clickable button? I have an input search TextBox, but instead of using a simple button control (for the click event) I would like to use the magnifying glass icon as the search button --something similar to how Bing (on WP7) uses the mic in the search box. How can I accomplish this?

The second thing I would like to know is:

* How is an API use in app? I found a few APIs/ RSS feeds and XML data sources that I would like to utilize in my future apps, but I’m not sure how to implement them.

EXAMPLE: hxtp://api.somewebsite.xxx/xsomething=item1&sip=somethingelseI’ve read some about URI. What is this?

So basically, I would like to create an app that goes out to a server somewhere and fetch information based on a user’s keyword input and click event.

Please help!!!

Welcome to silverlight programming :)

First up, here's a xaml snippet for showing an image in a button:

<Button Padding="4"
Margin="4">
<Image Source="Images/Search.png"/>
</Button>

I removed some of the attributes on the button and the image for clarity. Basically, a button can be used to show any UI element in this way.

Regarding your second question:

I haven't got a lot of experience outside of using WCF services, but for reading a feed I basically use a WebClient to download the xml file and then parse the file with linq:

WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.OpenReadAsync(new Uri([I]address[/I], UriKind.Absolute));
client.OpenReadCompleted += (sender, e) =>
{
if (e.Error != null)
{
/* Error Processing */
}
else if (e.Cancelled)
{
/* Operation was cancelled */
}
else
{
XElement feed = XElement.Load(e.Result);
foreach (XElement item in feed.Descendants("item"))
{
/* Process here */
}
}
};

I'm open to suggestions for a better way to do this though...
