Hello first post ;)

I'm a complete noob when it comes to making Kernels from scratch.I have made several kernel for my acclaim however i have not learned how to create a Initramfs_list to compile a kernel from scratch .I used JoeyKrim's Initramfs file to create every Kernel.

I want to learn how to create them myself as i have moved onto the samsung mesmerize. I'm assuming those are needed to do a vanilla build from asop source code ;)

Any help would be Great Thanks

I have the G2. The hd2 can run both gingerbread and Windows phone 7 (thanks to XDA) so someone offered me a HD2 and 125 for me G2 is the switch worth it?

And no I don't care about a keyboard.
[General Topics] Anthonayy:
It depends on your preferences. Do you like Android or WP7? But I have an HTC HD2 dual booting WP7 and android. Eventually it'll be able to trip boot Ubuntu as well. xD

But I've always wanted a G2 haha.
[General Topics] JPMK:
I herd about the dual boot it looked hard to do xD.

Maybe you can break down the steps ...
[General Topics] Gigamaster89:
If you don't care about the keyboard and want the bigger screen, then this is a no brainer. As far as I know, Android on the HD2 works 99% perfectly so if you're willing to put up with that 1%, go for it.

The trade is fairly equal value wise.
[General Topics] FLAC Vest:
I haven't had either phone because Im on ATT, but I have looked at and wanted the HD2 at some point in time.

Big screen, great specs, and dual booting now. Great platform.

[General Topics] Spl4tt:
a HD2 AND 125 bucks? if the HD2 is still in good condition... WHAT ARE U WAITING FOR

maybe u will hate winmo, but maybe u will love it. if u dont, waste 30mins of ur life to flash android
[General Topics] JPMK:
What exactly is the 1%?
[General Topics] Gigamaster89:
They're some minor issues with them, check XDA. I read recently with NAND android, some people have had trouble getting the battery to charge once it's dead completely.
[General Topics] HectiQ:
not quite, I was afraid of that at first, but mine was totally done yesterday :P

0%, and it charged eighter way. MAGLDR isn't so bad, plus they are tweaking it further. I really like the size of the HD2. Not much phones come close :D

it's very easy to use swype for instance, everything is more accessable
[General Topics] Spl4tt:
our HD2 is the most open phone right now...

i already thought of upgrading too, but cmon, reallly, every phone i could get wouldnt really be an "upgrade"..

those 1%, those are the bugs that nobody cares about cause u will never see them xD
[General Topics] sajin1:
The main differences IMO are those below (** = category winner). So, considering you also get 125, i personally would make the switch (unless his phone is in bad shape and yours is brand new). The HD2 has a better display, better processor, same camera (soon also with same video capture), just a little slower data transfer and slightly slower processor if overclocked => i'd take the HD2

Processor:

HD2: 1000 Mhz (OC Potential 1500 Mhz)

**G2: 800 Mhz (OC Potential 1800+ Mhz)

Possible Operating Systems

**HD2: Windows Mobile 6.5, WM7, Android Gingerbread & Froyo, Ubuntu (somewhat), MeeGoo

G2: Android

Display:

**HD2: 4.3" WVGA

G2: 3.7" WVGA

Data

HD2: HSPA 7.2

**G2: HSPA 14.4

Camera: (both 5MP)

HD2: 480p video (720p on WM7, probably soon on Android too)

**G2: 720p video
[General Topics] Gigamaster89:
The processor on the G2 is actually faster, its an under-clocked second-gen Snapdragon (vs HD2s first gen).
[General Topics] sajin1:
Thanks, didn't know that, i don't have the G2 so i just pulled the normal specs from a review. However, isn't the OC potential for both first and second gen snapdragon the same (about 1500 Mhz) ?

I guess the focus will sooner or later shift to dual/quad core + gpu type phones (tegra 2+), but i think the devs will still keep updating the HD2 for a long time,
[General Topics] BootloopedMillennials:
G2 can be overclocked to 1.8ghz. Ive seen one overclocked to 1.9ghz iirc. The second generation snapdragon has the performance advantage over the first generation snapdragon, clockspeed doesnt matter.
[General Topics] sajin1:
Good to know, changed my post accordingly to better processor = G2
[General Topics] PoisonWolf:
I'm going back to the HD2 after trying out the G2 for a while. Just didn't like the heft of the G2 and I used the keyboard twice at most. Didn't see why I'd tie myself down in a contract for that.

And whatever you do OP, don't let things like, "I can OC my G2 to 4 Ghz" influence you. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter cause 1 Ghz is more than enough for 99% of your phone's uses. :) The remaining 1% is purely a pissing contest.

I should note though, the G2 has beastly battery life. I clocked in at 1 day and 18 hours once before I charged it at around 19% battery. :) The smaller screen (and more efficient s-lcd) + 1500 mah battery helps this.

The HD2's bigger screen and smaller battery really shows in Android.
[General Topics] FLAC Vest:
All of the development and custom firmware for the HD2 is just amazing; in my opinion that is one of the strongest reasons to buy the phone; the fact that it has awesome specs is great too.
[General Topics] JPMK:
I dont OC...

What about the htc pyramid?

[General Topics] DroidFreek:
I agree that hd2 has a lot of potential for developed and has a nicely sized screen so in the longrun the hd2 has more possibilites it can even run wp7
[General Topics] osugsxr:
trying to decide which one to get. Currently have an iphone 3gs 16gb and a mytouch 4g and probably getting rid of one of them. I have offers for the iphone 3gs....trade for a new hd2 untoched, or a new g2.

Mytouch 4g can sell at $300, or trade for a g2.

Both have good support/development, only concern is unlocking the hd2 don't want to wait for an unlock code nor have to pay for it although its not much. Too choice!!
[General Topics] trashtakeout:
In response to the original question. Stick with your g2. I work for t-mobile and I personally use a hd2. I haven't found a version of android for the hd2 that works like real android 2.2 or gingerbread. I have the mytouch 4g build via magldr from motoman234 and it looks good but just functions ok. The screen gets weird and presses stuff when you don't want it to. Makes it hard for gaming. And there is no wi fi calling. which sucks. The g2 is an awesome device. The specs are similar. Why not stay with what is guaranteed to work well...and warrantied by the way through t-mobile. (if you got it from a store). In response to the question about when there will be another awesome phone for development like the hd2 was. I say "when there is another device whose hardware far exceeds the limitations put on it by its crappy software...windows 6.5." Thank you
[Epic 4G General] meandus:
Hi all, I'm on Nebula 1.0.7, and it doesn't have the Samsung launcher and, hence, no Samsung widgets. I don't know exactly how ROMS work, so I'm wondering if the Samsung launcher/widgets can be installed somehow?
[Epic 4G General] Superbovine:
I don't *think* any of the samsung widgets will work without touchwiz.

You can install touchwiz, or install tw GTG (which I prefer) and still be able to run all of the samsung widgets.

[Epic 4G General] meandus:
Thanks for the blazing response! I'll look into it.
[Epic 4G General] Superbovine:
No sweat. And for what it's worth, the GTG is great. I needed a TW launcher so I could use the samsung program monitor, but even without it I would prefer gtg
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighulk666:
Stepped away from my MT4G for a minute, when I returned, I found all my SMS's deleted. Only had about 1000, and 5-10 pictures messages. I know I had ~1GB of free memory. This was a big issue with my Nexus One, but didn't expect this to happen on the MT4G.

Does anyone know the cause of this?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmwils3:
Well, I know the stock messaging app has a setting to delete old messages, so you might want to check and see if that is checked.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighulk666:
It has not been checked since I got the phone. Seems to be common reading the T-MO forums.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BornOnFire:
I know that the max thread of messages to the same recipient is 200 so if you are not deleting messages on a normal maintenance basis, perhaps some of them are getting bumped after the 200 message Max is being reached? These, of course, are referring to messages to and from the same recipient(s). My wife likes to babble and I can get to 200 messages in no time....just sayin.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighulk666:
I know what your saying. BUT in the stock SMS app, I do not have that feature checked.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domynaite:
I woke up to this happening yesterday, but I use evil's miui rom. All messages were gone and new ones would not show up. Had to reflash to fix it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcool47:
Are you using the stock messaging app or some other messaging app? Because it happened to me once with handcent. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it again and everything is working fine since.

silly problem

guys I can sure that you have installed quick cache cleaner app, or any other equalent app, it will delet all sms when u clear the all system cache,

solution: all you have to do is very simple open cache cleaner app n select messages press n hold it n select EXCLUDE that's it your problem solved ...
[Android Software Development] vamp6x6x6x:
Basiclly I need help making it so people can longpress on a button and choose to set as ringtone or notfication tone.

here is some of my code I use so far for the sound:

MediaPlayer mpButtonClick;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

//set up the button sounds
mpButtonClick = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.money);

Button bmoney = (Button) findViewById(R.id.money);
bmoney.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mpButtonClick.start();

}
});
[Android Software Development] martino2k6:
View.setOnLongClickListener is all you need. As you should know Button extends TextView, which in turn extends View, so you can use that method on a Button too :)
[Android Software Development] vamp6x6x6x:
sorry but still kind of confused because I added the following before you mentioned this and got a force close:

Button money = (Button) findViewById(R.id.money);
Button registerForContextMenu;

@Override
public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v,
ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.setHeaderTitle("Context Menu");
menu.add(0, v.getId(), 0, "Action 1");
menu.add(0, v.getId(), 0, "Action 2");
}
[Android Software Development] vamp6x6x6x:
Ok, so now after reading I do actually have a menu on long press like I wanted...the only problem is that it doesn't actually get the sound file and save it

I am wondering what did I do wrong now? Here is the code I used:

Button SoundButton1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.money);
registerForContextMenu(SoundButton1);
}

@Override
public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v,
ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.setHeaderTitle("Save as...");
menu.add(0, MENU_RINGTONE, 0, "Ringtone");
menu.add(0, MENU_NOTIFICATION, 0, "Notification");
}

@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if(item.getTitle()=="Ringtone"){function1(item.getItemId());}
else if(item.getTitle()=="Notification"){function2(item.getItemId());}
else {return false;}
return true;
}

public void function1(int id){
Toast.makeText(this, "Ringtone saved", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
public void function2(int id){
Toast.makeText(this, "Notification saved", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
[Android Software Development] C.Flat:
I hate to bump an old thread but I am trying to add notifications and ringtones to a soundboard, I was able to successfully use the example here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ode-only-setting-first-button-as-ringtone-etc

but I have only been able to get it to save the audio from the first button. Could anyone point out how to get it working for each sound rather than just the first?
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
I would not rely on "==" returning what you think you want....use .equals() instead.

And I would probably just call one method and pass in the item id and let that method handle your processing. function1 and function2 are redundant. :)
[Android Software Development] Rick_1995:
I wonder how exactly you thought that just showing a toast with the Ringtone id will save it in device settings. in function1() and function2() you must add handlers to get resource from the id, set that stream as the desired ringtone, notification.
[Nexus S General] fchipm:
So I just got my very first Tmobile bill - and on the top it tells me to learn more about myFaves to visit the website.

I had thought myFaves was discontinued, but it would be a feature I really wish I had. When I sign into my account, it's interesting that the myFaves "Gallery" (I assume to add or remove faves) pops up for a split second the disappears.

I called Tmobile and told them I had seen the advertisement on my bill. She put me on hold briefly then came back and told me it was a discrepancy that they don't offer that anymore - which I assumed she was going to say.

Anyone else see this on their bill or on the website? Is it maybe a sign that it's coming back??? I sure hope so...
[Nexus S General] mrroey:
you can still get it added to tmobile. you just have to know how to ask.

call retention/cancellation dept and ask them nicely if they could add myfaves to your current plan because youre current minutes just arent enough and youre on a budget.

if the rep doesnt let you hang up and call again.

I added myfaves three weeks ago to my CURRENT EXISTING plan. when i called before that trying to get them to add it, they said they could only add myfaves option only if i switched over to another plan which ended up being $20 more expensive than my current one, which is grandfathered in from back 2005. the rep said that there was no other way to add myfaves except adding it to a plan that "supports" it.

Well it turns out that was BS cause when I called back the last time, the rep didnt have ANY trouble adding myfaves to my current family plan (all my 3 lines EACH get 5 free numbers).

like i said, you gotta find the right rep that will add it for you. but it can be done just like Tzones can still be added (course it doenst work with NS sadly).

I am currently on the 1000min family plan w/ myfaves for $49 + $10 for each add line. $10 unlimited FAMILY text plan $20 android 4g web. $5 tzones for another line with the iphone.
[Nexus S General] fchipm:
Hmm ill give it a shot. I'm on the promo plan with 1500 mins.

Wonder if they'd be more willing since they did in fact advertise it on my bill...

Is there any way to auto lock the screen after a call? I've searched through quite a few forums and couldn't find anything. Basically my problem is I'm using a call blocking app and after I get a call and it rejects it my phone is left unlocked afterwards. This causes me quite a few priblems for me...calls being made I don't want, text messages getting sent, and settings getting changed. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sorry if this is already answered but like I said I searched quite a bit and couldn't find any solutions. It just seems that if my phone was locked before a call it should stay locked after...

Just a question as to what eMMC means, as i am a noob at to this android business. Thanks.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animatechnica:
It means your internal storage i.e. not the sd card
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nootered:
eMMC = embedded multi-media card, or in this case, the internal memory.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodneyshupe:

Not to be picky, but that is incorrect. The NC does not contain a hard drive disk. It uses flash memory.

I need help figuring out my radio version on Android 2.2.1? All help is greatly appreciated.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
There is no way to check your radio when you're in android. But, why would you need to know it anyways, if android is running then your radio is okie. If you want to change your radio then just flash a new radio.

Anyways, usually your radio shows up on the bootscreen before the magldr menu shows up. But i haven't seen that happen for me.

If you're using SD android then simply reboot your device, and on your bootscreen into winmo, you'll see your radio on the bottom left hand corner, written in red and with a letter R beside it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] amachine247:
Thanks for the info.

I don't have windows, Androld nand only. I guess i can just flash a new radio but I just wanted to know if I could see the radio version.

[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
I'm trying to find something similar to a tab delimited column header and rows.

Ex:

Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
1 $52.33 $82.54
297 $15,323.87 $82,963.54

No matter what the denominations of the money is or the Column 1 counter, that is, if Column 1 goes to 10 or 100, it won't "push" the values in column 2 and 3 to the right. Same thing with the $ sign; I want it line up underneath the first letter of the column header whether its $0.23, $1.65 or $21,234.88.

Any ideas?
[Milestone XT720 General] ghuk:
Guys please help me out. Is it worth it to switch to moto xt720? My current phone is Samsung Wave. Thanks
[Milestone XT720 General] AllGamer:
here's my view

Bada OS = sucks, no freedom, no choices

phone itself = good phone and amazing AMOLED screen

so if you are satisfied to have a phone that is a phone, and works, and able to take pictures, then there is no need to change

but if you want the wonderful FREE stuff that you get off Android Market, then you'll need an Android Phone

and the XT720 is a very good phone that serves all purposes, it might not be the top of the line, but it can keep up without a sweat

a bit shy on the battery life

however... the if you were using a WAVE, that means you were on a 3G HSDPA 900 / 2100 network

the XT720 runs on 3G HSDPA 1700 / 2100 network

are you sure that is compatible?
[Milestone XT720 General] ghuk:
Thanks for the reply bro. Yeah I['m still in a dilemma of I should switch. I never had any android phones before. That's why I think that xt720 would be a good starting phone for me to try android. but the thing that is holding me back from switching is that xt720 is only runs 2.1 eclair. the phone memory is too low to isntall many apps. I read somewhere that you can use a certain app or hack that let's you install the apps on the memory card, but it also stated that it still uses some part of the phone memory,.

I got bored on this bada os. No customization, very simple and mimimalistic interface.
[Milestone XT720 General] Vistaus:
the memormy may be small. It's not laggy at all with more than 1 widget and multiple apps open (even w/o overclock). And 2.1, alright, but Dexter is working on the 2.2 port and he's gonna throw out a bèta one of these days. So 2.2 is on it's way and if the kexec crack starts to work good, then we could also have newer android versions later this year. So updates are not a problem for now.

To the TS I'd say: throw away that Wave and get yourself the XT720 :) It's a really good Android-phone and like AllGamer says: not the top of the line, but it sure can keep up and the camera is really good, hardware too and it just does what it does and that's what a phone needs to do IMHO: do what it does.

But indeed, check the MHz to see if it's compatible.
[Milestone XT720 General] en0203:
to the TS: since u are geting a new phone please DO NOT settle for anything less than froyo and 512MB ram or you'll be regret. speaking from experience, i own the xt720 and my wife's nexus one runs wayyyy better with the additional ram. the ram really helps when u have many apps running
[Milestone XT720 General] anonaye2:
I have 3 phones - HTC Desire HD, HTC Desire and this xt720. The xt720 (with O.C.1000) is laggiest of all. The response is much slower than the other two. Granted, it's rather unfair to compare the Desire HD with this due to the price. However, the usage experience is very bad.

Put it this way, I listen to music, fine. When a call arrives, it takes 2 seconds to unlock the screen because the screen stalls for that long. After that, I missed the call and have to wait another 2 seconds for the contact list to pop up so that I can call back. I dont have any of the issues with the HTC phones. Context switching is SLOW on this phone and no surprise, that IS the memory (RAM) being so small.
