hey.. i am reading about android roms such as 2.1 and 2.2 ..when i 'll have some free time (because of school) i 'll check if i can do something to make ms ans ts work on 2.2 :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
Sounds interesting. I wish you good luck.

I hope you can do it, cuz I really love MS (whaTS? O.o :p)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] jujukos:
TimeScape :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
I knew it means that, but I just wanted to let you all know I don't really use TS :D

I think that nobody still use timescape or mediascape 0.o

i have a problem, i installed both apps, the apps are running, but i cant activate my email in this, the apps crashed, why?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] 315phatboi:
can u just install them all like regular apk. or do they have to be copyed and paste somewhere else
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] aR_ChRiS:
timescape is a battery drainer and it serves no practical usage at all (apart from listing a contact's information in one 'card' including messages, fb, twitter, etc.)

mediascape - it's a quite good music app but the picture thing is just a PITA, not too user friendly

in my stock rom i've installed the shortcuts on the original android gallery and music player which is also pre-installed on X10 but hidden away by sony.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] g00x:
i don´t know, i try it like a regular app. but the apps are crashed after start.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] subhankar.ds:
you need to copy/past to system/app folder...you can use rootexplorer to do this...
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] g00x:
nothing,...the same problem, the app started but i cant configure the email account or facebook. if i press the button for email config, is timescape crashed :(

I hope you understand me,..my english is bad, i know it ^^

i put them in the system/app and also change the permission... still doesnt install... whyyy>??!?!?!?!?! xD
[Android Apps and Games] Life Engineer:
In Windows mobile i can see the call counters easily (settings, about phone) and see for example:

Incoming: 20 hours 15 minutes 10 seconds

Outgoing: 25 hours 55 minutes 17 seconds

Those are the total call timers of the phone, i mean all time counters since you first used the phone till now.

In android i can't find a way to see this information!

Is there is anyway to do so?!

(i've posted in this section supposing that there's an app that can do it; sorry if it's in the wrong section and feel free to move it)
[Android Apps and Games] Life Engineer:
Anyone!?! Looks like it's not possible :(
[Android Apps and Games] athornz:
If that information is not part of the android os, then it would be quite difficult to write a 'app' to record that I think.

It would have to be integrated into the core of the OS I guess.

Edit:

Actually android already records the time of each call in the call log, so querying and adding up that info wouldn't be too hard
[Android Apps and Games] Izkata:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/CallLog.Calls.html

It should be possible to write an app that adds up the times in the call history. Clearing the history would, of course, reset the sums.
[Android Apps and Games] Life Engineer:
Thanks guys for your replies!

But what i mean is a built-in data in android! like it is in WinMo!

Some kind of built-in hardware and software component that counts them without giving the user the privilege to reset it!

In other words, if i want to buy a used phone and i want to take an idea on how much the phone has been extensively used!

The information presented when using *#*#4636*#*# are only from boot to boot *(when you reboot the counter will reset)!

Not able to post under the UPDATED! [ROM] [2.2.1 Froyo] [23/1/2011] TastyFroyo 1.2 thread (this is the rom i'm using) so I'm hoping that someone can help me here. Been searching through here for what "silent state" means. When I put my phone on silent it still plays media through the phone speaker. Under the sound settings when I uncheck silent mode it takes my phone off silent state. Is there a silent state that disables all sounds (including media/alarms) except vibrate? Or is this a rom issue?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] wileykat:
Yep, that is normal android behaviour. Use somethin like Audio manager widget to be able to control each value yourself,...... personally I use widgetsoid (free in market). Its like the power control widget with a lot more options, a volume toggle being one of them. Try it.

Hang on, ill get a screen shot up.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] quikbeam:
widgetsoid is pretty neat, thanks! I guess I could always turn down the media volume when I need to.

I just recently switched from sprint. Had evdo everywhere I went which was nice.

I only have edge on tmo in certain areas. Namely on my way to work - streaming audio unfortunately doesn't do too well on edge which sucks for my commute. Browsing etc is decent though but don't expect to do anything more data intensive than that.

[Desire HD General] gabrielfx:
I noticed a huge battery usage with currentwidget (~70mA) while WiFi was on, but only about 4 mA when wifi was off.. So I think something must use very much the wifi, while the screen is OFF. I can also see in PowerTutor the usage of the wifi system... Can you help me with some ideas?

PS. I just flashed a new Radio Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF but the problem still stands....
[Desire HD General] Tapori_UK:
Yeah, I have a similiar problem.

Had my phone rooted, new Radio (Since Dec.) running latest LeeDroid.

Had my phone just the way i like everything, been very impressed with battery life over the past month with brilliant ROM updates.

Then randomly last week Wi-Fi usage shot up to the 60-90 mA level. No new Rom had been installed for 2 weeks, so it wasn't that.

Wi-Fi off was 1-4 mA.

- I thought maybe its the applications I updated; Uninstalled all of them

Didn't work

- Maybe its fiddly settings like SYnc etc that have changed since App updates etc...

No settings had been altered.

- Maybe its a cache stats thing, I'll do a full wipe (Via CWM in Recovery Mode, select "Wipe Data/FactoryReset" option) and re-installed an even newer version of LeeDroid.

Still the battery drained 7-9 percent an hour on Standby(Screen Off).

1) Is it my router?

2) Is it a faulty WiFi part in the phone

3) What else besides the other two could it be?

P.S. - After the new fullw wipe/ clean Modded Rom install, the wi-fi stats show that it never went to "Sleep" when I look at SpareParts stats....

i.e. - Battery was 60 percent -- Phone put into what appeared to be "Sleep Mode" (Pressing the power button once.)

-- 8 hours later battery was 15 percent!

Spare Parts showed "Time since Phone was in sleep" 8H

"Time since Wi-fi was in sleep" 8H.

Help greatly appreciated.

yep if you can build a native gnulinux kernel ;) you can multi boot even.

Iḿ look for this , but there some things i dont understand or just not explaned.

like standaard kernel source how do you modify that to gnulinux. ( to boot ubuntu )

Any one?

some info

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/MSMQSD

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/MSMQSD/Initial_Work
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhinta:
Things dat sould be oke .

if you have the correct kernel you sould be able to boot it like this.

sudo ./fastboot -c 'root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rw rootfs=ext3 init=/sbin/init rootwait noinitrd' boot zImage

mmcblk disk 1 partition 1 -> depents on your sdcard ,p2 sould be ext3 with rootfs with it .

but any thing i try i dont get ubuntu booted .
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
i understand android can be booted from a secure digital card, for for multiboot to work, would you not need an enviroment like grub? otherwise how would you choose what boot.img to execute :confused:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xReini:
that's the thing I don't understand..

whit the gnu kernel we are able to mount fs on sd card (ext3) but how are we able boot it?

(sorry for my english )

Edit: sorry i mean without fastboot
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhinta:
very simpel

1 you build a boot image for multi boot flash it to recovery .

2 you need multi partition on sd for multi boot

3 just boot recovery and you can select witch partition to boot

G1 has this option already
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xReini:
that sounds easy ..

but "1 you build a boot image for multi boot flash it to recovery" should be the tricky part

and i've got the Buzz OC/UV kernel and in the config from /proc/config.bz there is

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y already set .. do i need to recompile a new kernel?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhinta:
You dont get it ,

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y is for chroot OS !!!!NOT NATIVE ( gnulinux )UBUNTU!!!!

what we need is a kernel witch is build for GNULINUX !!!

We now have ANDRIODKERNEL !!!to boot ANDROID

you can chroot ubuntu easy , just download hd2 ubuntu 3 and extract rootfs to sdcard as ubuntu/ubuntu.img + download ubuntu pack ( google is your friend - nexusone chroot ubuntu) download that and read that site , the rootfs.ext3 is the same as ubuntu.img

Smal tip only install thightvnc server and dont doe any thing about installing lxde orso , so only the vnc setup and you have ubuntu

why do i need a native linux kernel for that?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhinta:
because of the native linux kernel you can boot from sdcard ( hd2 booting android :confused:)

1 the android kernel wil boot up

2 it will boot initd from mem , bam we have android ( somthing like that )

or

1 boot GNUlinux

Hay, I just checked for updates using my streak and got a n 404 error. Maybe they are getting ready to release 2.2 of course they may also be cancelling support for the Streak.
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
hmm.. Maybe, but I wouldn't your breath just yet. similar thing happened when 2.2 was released for O2 and unlocked devices. The landing page changed, but the update wasn't pushed till about a week later.

also this is a bit too close for "a couple weeks" as dell/att stated
[Streak 5 General] leinert1:
I just talked with a rep at the local at&t store. He said that the upgrade will happen in February, and that the stores are now providing training on the upgrade to their sales people.
[Streak 5 General] tosh1:
I have a feeling it will be released around the same time as the Dell Streak 7 which is suppose to be around the corner. I am sure they share the same Dell Stage UI on 2.2.

Keep our fingers crossed it is soon... tired of this 1.6 slow thing...
[Streak 5 General] eddyboat2002:
That sounds like bull because the update is supose to be sent directly to your phone all you have to do is download it and run it. You dont need training for that. If you can read and follow directions anyone should be able to do it
[Streak 5 General] JakeArmitage79:
Rogers update page changed today too; from a generic Dell "phone is up to date" to an actual Rogers branded upgrade page, the message was still the same.. something like "rofl, can't believe you bought at 1.6 device... we pwned you!" or the sort
[Streak 5 General] lsweeting:
Given the number of threads on modaco about updates going wrong etc, training is probably quite a good idea! But I imagine what they mean is training on how to use the Streak with 2.2 installed, given the big changes that have happened to the ui in the update.

Well, perhaps training on 2.2 since some of their phones may eventually have it. I sincerely doubt that it's training on the Dell Streak.

Of course, who would believe a saletron from an AT&T store? It's almost as bad as those idiots that say "well a Best Buy saletron said the Froyo update to the Streak is coming out on February 1."

Hi Guys,

With the torch app you can increase the light power ? (high voltage?) is it possible to decrease it too?

I take pictures and the flash is far too powerful and would like a setting or percentage to decrease it?

If its possible per-se I'll look into the code and have a play?

Cheers, Sarkie
[Nexus One General] itay1:
Hmm, the flash is never too powerful. What you want is to decrease your camera expose time or the iso-sensitivity.

In stock camera app, you have the settings button, choose exposure -1 or -2. You'll get what you hope for.

Today, for the first time, I've noticed that the N1 is adjusting the flash intensity. It seems to have 3 or 4 different levels, and while taking a photo, at the time of the auto focus, the led comes on at various intensities, and the best one is chosen.

What was so pertinent that you needed to be on Cyanogen anyway?
