LMAO!

He is talking about syncing Andoid email app using wp7 settings when he can use android.imap.mail.yahoo.com and android.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. It's not about what OS to use. Besides, this is android section and not winmo.

By the way, why winmo? Because that is what in the attached image. Do you know how to read?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
Sorry, my mistake. I misunderstood.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mysterymeat:
dood you rock! i have been trying for days to get yahoo mail on my droid build.

just what i needed!

Thanks again!:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] coldest~~~:
the way i do is: register a gmail account, forward your yahoo mail to gmail. then sync the gmail with your phone. I don't mind using gmail at all..beside, there's a yahoo mail app in the market
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
but you can't use multiple yahoo accounts in the yahoo mail app at once.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
I don't want to use the separate Yahoo app. I have a DesireHD build with the mail widget that can show all email account right there on a screen. And I've tried to use the specific Yahoo IMAP settings that you would find in a Google search but nothing works. The WP7 settings do work. No need to scratch your head bald or search around and try to solve the settings issue to make the Android app get Yahoo mail.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
I know what you are doing. It was not me who asked why use the email app and not the yahoo map. I am using that also in my desire/desire hd/glacier/gingerbread builds but with the settings I posted in post #5. I have 4 yahoo mail set up in the htc mail app (except for gingerbread where I used android email app). Same reason as you, I can use the widget.

Sorry dude, you are barking at the wrong tree. I have been using that setting ever since I used android on my HD2, that was, mid last year.

I have ported snq- 's great mod to disable reflow after pinch zooming into Desire Z build. I plan to do one for Desire HD builds as well. (UPDATE: Desire HD package is uploaded) Here is the instructions:

Please do a full backup before anything else, I didn't have time to test this extensively, awaiting feedback from you ;)

1- extract the attachment and get com.android.browser.apk (Browser.apk for HD build) into your SD card

2- open up root explorer (or any other file explorer with root access) copy that apk into /system/app (overwrite the existing file)

3- hold the file and select permissions, check them all.

4- shut down your phone, power up again.

5- well that's it, it would be nice to see some thanks button action ;)

Here is what this Mod does in summary:

When you pinch and zoom, the browser tries to readjust the text and it doesn't stay where you zoomed in, it "jumps". You could temporarily correct this by typing about:debug into your browser and enabling GEP zoom from the options but it would go away when you restart the browser. this Mod makes this behaviour permanent.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Giblet-dono:
You are FAR in the future ;)!

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ozkaya:

Nice discovery
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jbrizz:
I'm using it on stock but rooted and deodexed 1.72.405.3 (Desire HD) and it doesn't stick after reboot. Browser is definitely a different one because the icons in the menu are coloured now, but the GEP zoom setting just doesn't stay ticked.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ozkaya:
GEP Zoom isn't checked on mine too, the important thing is the behavior stays same,no? You should be getting no reflow for pinch and zoom, and reflow for double tap zoom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] norpan111:
You could just write "about:debug" in adressfield and The option to disable it in the settings
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ozkaya:
that setting doesn't work properly on Sense builds, it gets enabled upon next restart of the browser.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bassist Of Last Life:
My brother accidentally installed it on his phone and wants to go back to stock 2.1.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koadic:
The easiest way is to use Odin to flash it back to stock DI18, but this will return it to a factory setting, as in he will have to redownload his apps and contacts, unless he has them saved to gmail, in which case those will show up as soon as he enters his gmail info into the phone.

The other, more time consuming way is to flash the modem bin only through Odin, and then through ClockworkMod (if it doesnt have it applied already, find the one click root and recovery thread in the Dev section), flash the stock DI18 rom directly over what is there without wiping the data.

For info on how to do either of these, check the wiki (its a sticky up at the top of this section) or do a search... usefull terms are odin, cwm, clockworkmod, etc.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bassist Of Last Life:
Thank you.ha

There is also a zip that is flashable with cwm. Some people have upgraded that way.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] wspeed:
i've just flashed a ROM downloaded from the forum, and i wish to flash a custom theme from the forum too. But i wondered how can i switched back to my original theme if i don't like the theme i downloaded? Just select other theme from settings?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] forelli:
Flash the rom again

f.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] K Dotty:
Just remember not to wipe or clear cache. You should always make a nandroid backup before you flash just incase
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] wspeed:
Well, will it be safe if I backup my ROM in RomManager app before I flash the new theme?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] K Dotty:
Yeah that will be fine. If u don't like the theme or sumthing goes wrong you can restore from recovery/Rom Manager

[Vega General] Higgsy:
1.08 Firmware is out at www.myadventvega.co.uk.

Been doing some analysis and looks like a great deal of the newer tegra drivers have been included in this release (only a few differences which I need to look into further)

So flashing this its safe to say will pretty much have the same effect as prvious pefomance packs etc..
[Vega General] dagrim1:
Good news, was wondering if they also updated the drivers... Makes it worth a try I guess :)
[Vega General] strictlysocial:
Great, looking forward to my Vega turning up. Lets hope Advent keep to their word and start focusing on bringing more quality updates once the supply issues are sorted.
[Vega General] O_G:
Hi Higgsy.

Thanks for the heads up. I took the plunge, Just flashed and installed madaco r6 free rom add-on (no performance pack). It failed on a few files, with no space on device and no such directory errors, but all the market etc appears to work fine.The keyboard responsiveness appears to be better, but there is still a need to re-calibrate the screen. The drivers have defiantly been updated. i am now getting 2389 in quadrant. Thats around 70 points or so over the previous rom with my performance pack.
[Vega General] Higgsy:
I guess that depends which section you are in.

BTW the thanks was a mistake on my part, I clicked on the wrong button.

We'll send it up on a balloon as high as we can get it, then thrust it into orbit.

The GPS will work so we'll know where it is.

We can fit a long range lens on the camera and take images of members countries or just use it as a space surveillance sat.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
Good morning everyone,

I am not sure if it has been answered before, search didn't get me anywhere...

If i try to copy files from my sd card or my internal space to a usb-or hard drive (pluged in over usb) it refuses to obey my commands( ;-) )

I can read just fine but i can't write anything(nor can i create a directory)

I have tried the standard file explorer,astro and androzip.

I could try terminal but that wouldn't be a real sollution even if it would work

I have a 101 with .71 standard firmware....

Does it work with urukdroid?

Is there a sollution? (Different mount ?)

Thank you

What type of filesystem is on that hd?

I asume you have ntfs and that is readonly.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalandar:
I agree with the previous post, make sure the file system isn't NTFS, go for Fat32/vfat, and I am pretty sure that will solve your problem.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
Oh yeah just missed that ntfs is a ms filesystem fat will not work i have very large files.....

I read somewhere that ntfs support is comming to android like with linux and mac.....

Thank u for ur answers...
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fzelle:
Ntfs support is allready there, but readonly.

If you have big files and need windows access, use ext3, as there are windows drivers for that.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkiii:
As mentioned, ext3 is your best option to go with.

Or just stick with read only and NTFS for files over 4gb.

There are quite a few out there, what do you think is the best camera and and what apps have you tried (if you think one is best, but haven't tried others, not very valid tbh!)

Myself, I would like one that takes pics in the same ratio as my phone screen. The Desire HD would do this. I know you actually lose resolution, but they look better on the phone...
[General Questions and Answers] splish2010:
Can't say I've tried them all, but Vignette is pretty good. It has a wide range of options to select from.

you can check out my review of it from the link in my signature
[General Questions and Answers] AndyCr15:
Had a quick play with Vignette, certainly seems very good. I love I can set the volume rocker to be the shutter release!

Is there a way to change aspect ratio of the photo's, so it takes full screen? If I select Full Screen of 16:9 as the frame, it does this, but crops the photo to only be about 600 by 300... :(

[General Questions and Answers] dustrho:
I'm shopping for a new camera app right now, as the stock one for AOSP ROMs is horrible. Can't believe how crappy it is, especially after coming off a modded Sense ROM (Virtuous) where that camera kicked ass. Right now I'm torn between Vignetta and Camera Advance. It seems that most here like Vignette, but what about Camera Advance? On Amazon it only got 3/5 stars, but after playing with the "free" version it seems pretty good.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] rubyknight:
Miui Camera or Sleek Camera. Miui is basically a prettier version of the stock camera and seems to work well on CM7 if you turn down the resolution.

Sleek Camera is a little bit buggy but it takes high quality photos on CM7 roms without any bloat or all the extras of Camera 360 and others. I highly recommend this app as a partial fix for CM7 users.
[General Questions and Answers] rubyknight:
Camera Advance Pro is very good so far in my testing but still suffers from the same problems as the stock CM7 camera.

Little Photo has some nice effects although I wouldn't say its a camera replacement app. Coming from the iPhone which has so many wonderful camera apps, I must say android does seem a little behind. I wonder why it doesn't have the same broad range of apps?
[General Questions and Answers] mkioshi:
What do you miss exactly in Android that's available for iPhone? Honest question because I never had an iPhone and I saw a ton of camera apps for Android and the only notable exception I notice is instagram but just because it's so popular becuase picplz and snapbucket do the same thing.

vignette is an amazing camera app and tilt shift is so much fun to play with
[General Questions and Answers] travmanx:
I personally love using Vignette.

I was skeptical at first, because I was just looking for something pretty basic to use. Vignette is anything but basic with all the effects you can add. I didn't feel it was needed, but however after toying around for a while, I fell in love.

I use it everyday, mostly for the easy built in sharing feature.

The free version was good enough for me (as I only upload to Facebook and sometimes to Dropbox), so I don't need super fancy photo's, but I wanted to give back for such an amazing free app.
[General Questions and Answers] mkioshi:
Camera360 is the only app that seems to actually improve the quality of my device's admittedly poor camera so it's the only one I bought.

[General Questions and Answers] rendez2k:
There seems to be a lot more love for photography on the iPhone (its flickr's most used camera I believe right now!) and some of the apps are truly amazing - apps such as Hipstamatic and Camera+ spring to mind. Theres whole groups, blogs, websites, books and even gallerys devoted to iPhone photography. Another issue I've seen a lot of on Android is despite having an 8mp camera, most apps save out tiny pathetic sized images which are next to useless - most apps are full resolution on the iPhone which are ideal for post-processing of photos and then printing.

So why don't developers seem to be embracing Android as much as the iPhone?

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] ele1216:
how can i play lossless music (wav) ? use hd2 wp7
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mcsvette:
This is not easiest way but I did get this to work in playing wma lossless music on my HD2 Winmo 7.5.

First create WMA lossless files with spec of 16bit 44.1K.

This is where you will go off-road..

Find a link on web on how to turn the winmo phone into a usb drive.

i found a link on wpcentral.

Goto the usb drive'd Winmo 7.5 phone and look for folder named Music.

Inside create the folder you wish and copy those wma lossless files you want.

These files will show up in the phone as "Various Artists", so they won't catalog properly.

So, go back to the usb drive'd winmo phone. Go back to the Music folder where you copied those wma files. Right Mouse click on one of those wma files. A choice to create Playlist should be there. Create one.

Rename the playlist as you please. Then right click on the file and goto properties. Then goto "references" tab. Select all the wma file names and "drag" them into the "references" tab. You may have to rearrange the order of the songs, but there are buttons allowing you to do this.

After everything looks right save this file.

Then, look for folder called PLAYLIST. MOVE the .pla (playlist) file you created into this folder.

unplug the winmo phone and you should be able to play this "playlist" full of wma lossless files.

there maybe easier way to do this... but I have not found a method on the web..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] darksavior:
The way i do it is, first of all, convert the wavs to wma lossless with a converter. I use dbpoweramp.

If you have wav\ape\flac\cue files, get a virtual drive emulator like daemon tools and load the cue file in that, then get dbpoweramp or zune software to convert.

I then sync the music with the zune software to the phone. Done.

There is a minor bug. This happens on a few builds of wp7 ive tried.

music skips when trying to play from phone speaker.

If you use headphones or an external speaker the music does not skip.

personally, the audio quality of the phone is not as good as a real zune hd. I would convert to mp3 instead.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mcsvette:
check the size of those files you transferred using zune.. i have tried your method.. however, even when the files are only "sync'd" not convertered, they were fraction of the original files..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] darksavior:
the sync problem seems random to me. try to transfer one album at a time and check that theyre synced before continuing
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lecra:
Hi all,

I want to re-partition my Galaxy S I9000 to have a clear phone without any garbage from other ROM's installed. I want to start from a stock ROM (JPY) and then install a custom ROM.

If I download the stockrom JPY from samfirmware.com there is only one file in the rar (PDA only) and no PIT file.

Whitout the PIT File I cannot re-partition the phone, or not?

Somebody that can explain me how I can clean my phone?

br, Lecra
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigdyl69:
DON'T repartition with the single file ROM downloads, you'll more than likely brick your phone. Follow the instructions here to the letter and you'll be ok, I have used it a couple of times while dabbling with custom ROM's then returning to stock. It works a treat
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bdl1969:
If you re-partition your phone without flashing any ROM files as well you run the risk of messing up the partitions that hold your bootloaders and this will brick your phone as they won't be accessible! If you want to re-partition you can start out flashing a ROM that includes bootloaders with re-partition (eg, JPU), and then flash the PDA / Modem / CSC that you really want over the top. Be aware that there is always a danger of bricking your phone whenever you flash bootloaders!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lecra:
bigdyl69,

Thank you for your quick answer!

I did all the stuff listed on the page you sent me and it works perfectly.

Unfortunately there is a misunderstanding from my side. I thought that this would also delete my sdcard so that I could start from the scratch! This is not the case during a re-partition.

Thank you anyway for this greast thread in how to restore the phone on a stockrom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tomeks:
repartition have nothing to do with bootloaders.

you could repartition phone as many times as you want and yours download mode will still be working.

in Richthofen topics with rom there is even instruction to first only repartition without any rom file and then rerun odin with rom.

one more thing. do NOT use roms with bootloaders if yours are workig fine, because that is the only way to brick the phone (jig needed)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigdyl69:
If you want to format your sd card so its completely blank, go to settings, then sd card and storage options (I think) and the option to format the internal sd card is in there. You can do that without having to flash any Roms
