I do not know exactly what you mean, but I would recommend the app: Wallpaper set and save. If you have a picture or a wallpaper you have downloaded, just open the app, choose what wallpaper you want, and BAAM great quality. Not compressed or anything like when you use the one in the ROM.
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
This has nothing to do with development.

Images need to be in 480x320, but being so hard to look around in the BIG THREAD NAMED WALLPAPERS FOR WILDFIRE, you needed to open a topic IN THE WRONG AREA!!!:mad:
[Wildfire Android Development] ryan1983:
Sorry if I didn't make myself myself clear, ...let me clarify my original post

I'm using adw.launcher and have a single home screen, on a a stock (rooted) rom containing sense.

The physical screen size of the wildfire is 230 x 320.

I'd like to be able to use a image which is 230 x 320, and have it fit to the single home page, without being distorted.

As i said in my original post i've searched for an answer. but i have also looked through the wallpaper threads

I guess something could be done to sense or adw which (not the wall paper) would stop the scrolling and allow image size of 230 x340 applied without distorting. So, I put my question within the dev sub-forum to see if the there was a way to do this...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[Wildfire Android Development] kevin2516:
all the launchers have the option to turn off wallpaper scrolling.

wallpapers that i use that aren't distorted are usually, 320x480, 480x960.
[Android Apps and Games] Azkabor:
About a year ago I started developing a app that could detect when it would rain on your location. The result was a widget called:

RegenDetector/RainDetector

The widget runs a background service that uses the gps location of the gsm pole to request data from buienradar.nl. It can sound an alarm a few minutes up to one hour before it will start to rain on your location. The widget also functions as an custom shortcut to 1 or two other apps (depending on the size of the widget). The largest widget can also show the weather for the comming hours or days. The widget also can show weather warnings and weather alerts provided by KNMI and meteoalarm.eu.

RegenDetector is free to use and available in the android market. There is also a donation version available.

more info:

http://www.regendetector.nl (in dutch)

Limitations:

The webservice I use to get rain information is currently only available in the Netherlands and Belgium. If you know a service that can provide rain information on gps location for your country, I might be able support other countries.

example: http://gps.buienradar.nl/getrr.php?lat=52&lon=4

If there are any suggestions/remarks/questions/complaints, please let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] Azkabor:

hey guys,

i´ve put the Generic Global Rom (Former LAM - 1234-4820)on my x10a to get all the updates from SE (.24 and etc) using this method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824711

well, it turned out that since then, my phone is "emergency only" and "no signal" all the time.

now I´m trying to return to Generic BR Rom (the one I was using before) through the same method, but PC Companion just ignores it and re-install the Generic Global Rom

any idea how can I return to the BR Rom or solve this signal problem???

I got some Problem with my HTC Touch Pro :/ When i'm on Windows Mobile, the Device just charges fine, but when i'm on Android, it doesn't charge at all... i left my phone on the USB-Charger (HTC AC Adapter thingy :D) all night, but this morning the Battery was still low o.O Someone got the same problem? Do i need to go to Windows Mobile to charge my phone?

Please help,

Are you running a recent kernel? This hasn't been an issue in ages.

Also, you're not checking the LED indicator for charge status are you? Because orange/green in Android do no mean the same things in WinMo...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Tho-kun:
Hey!

I'm on XDandroid 2.2.1 FRX04 ^^

I found out it's only a problem when i connect the AC Adapter to charge my device, when i connect it over my Laptop or PC it charges fine...

And what do you mean with "Also, you're not checking the LED indicator for charge status are you? Because orange/green in Android do no mean the same things in WinMo... "? My Touch Pro doesn't have an Orange/green LED or something, i think :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oh right, I'm not in the RHOD section... Sorry :p.

So for RAPH, I mean the spinning jogwheel at the bottom - you're not looking at this (the spinning "breathe" LED for charging, flashing for notification, etc) for charge status are you?

Android charges just fine from USB or AC for me. A while ago it wouldn't indicate it properly, so what kernel are you on? You said FRX04, this is a system image. Kernel is zImage and modules-xxxxx.tar.gz.

When I press the menu botton or long-press on the home screen, I can get the option of mediascape and wallpaper only, but the live wallpaper which used to be under those two is gone!!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blahsphemer:
I have a couple of internal workings of the _rooting_ process!

1) In every rooting guide I have come across, it is advised to make a backup of all important information. Which would require Titanium Backup.

But for the titanium backup to take backup of all apks and things, doesn't it require root priveleges?

2) How does the Clockwork recovery menu manage to get displayed when you reboot into the recovery mode? Is that an exploit?
[Nexus One General] MO3iusONE:
So I bought a Nexus S yesterday, earlier today I noticed a co worker of mine had a Nexus 1, I know of them, I mean I've seen them but I never actually held one; I was blown away by the build quality and the trackball is awesome as well. After playing with his phone I started hitting up craigslist to see if I could find one and was seriously considering returning my Nexus S.

I think I'm gonna keep the Nexus S after all but god damn, I'm just shocked that the Nexus S is the Nexus S, I mean, you would think that after the Nexus 1, the phone replacing it would at least have that same style of build quality. oh well, I still like the NS non the less.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
I'm sure you can understand why so many of us chose not to upgrade, eh? The Nexus S is a nice handset if you didn't already have a Nexus One...it just isn't a big enough step up for us though.
[Nexus One General] deenn:
biggest suck up thread ever :p

though, I personally, am very flattered :)
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
Nexus s is great. You get a better touch sensor and a faster gpu.
[Nexus One General] player911:
I played with one in store. I have my N1 running the latest CM7 gingerbread. So I setup my desktop matching the NS.

The screen is a Tad nicer but overall I didn't see much to warrant my dough.
[Nexus One General] MO3iusONE:
haha no sucking up here, just gotta pay respect when its due; I mean lets be honest, the Nexus S IS better than the Nexus One, even if the specs are slightly better, with its slightly better screen, higher quality screen, front facing camera, etc. etc. the only thing I feel the S falls short on is the build quality, its nothing bad but its like with the iPhone, I liked the build quality better on the first gen iphone then the 3G or 3GS.

Unless Palm announces something crazy (Palm fanboy here) I'll probably just stick with the Nexus S, I also have a Droid Pro so I think I should be set for a while.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Now you see why many of us love the nexus one so much! CPU and specs aside, the nexus one hardware, build quality, color track ball for any notification you want, materials, size and package, its unmatched even by any current phone out there today! This phone is literally a work of art.

Throw in the car dock and desk dock, it can't be beat. Damn I wish Google went with HTC for the next nexus phone.
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
I know it just blows my mind that th folks at Google carried around an HTC N1 for almost a year and then decided that the Nexus S made by Samsung was the way to go...it really does blow my mind every time I think about it. Who in their right mind would make that choice?? I'm still bitter about it...feel as if I was robbed out of an upgrade. Forced to make a choice of crappy build quality with better internals or stick with older internals with better build quality. I'd still like to know what asshole at Google made us face that choice.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Oh cmon MM... tell us how you REALLY feel ;)

It make sense to me at least for Google to keep its various manufacturers happy by spreading the Nexus love. I guess we will have to see who the next Nexus is made by: Motorola? LG? :p
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
:D I hadn't thought about it in awhile and it kinda hit me again there reading this thread.

I can understand wanting to spread the manufacturer love but Google should have told Samsung that if they wanted the Nexus "2", then they could have it, PROVIDED they built it nicer than their usual crap. Google should have kept a higher standard for the Nexus line and they let Samsung kinda cheapen it in my book.

It's one thing to spread the love and it's another to tell Samsung here are the internals we want and oh you can wrap those internals in whatever you want. I almost think us users are prouder of the N1 than Google, who seemed to give up on it like a step child when it didn't sell as well as they would have liked. Hell we users BEGGED Google to advertise the damn thing....but no, they run a search ad during the Super Bowl LESS THAN A MONTH after the Nexus launched...what kind of sense did that make??:D Like Google needed a search ad during the Super Bowl...everyone already uses Google search for god's sake!!!:D:D
[Nexus One General] canadariot2312:
What is up with Samsung and plastic? I know that they have one phone made of metal, but plastic gets so fingerprint prone.

I hope it is by Motorola, providing that they don't have a locked bootloader. They actually put dual noise canceling mics on their phone (Droid X), which is probably one of the most important thing on a smartphone.
[Nexus One General] vios06:
Yeah, hands up for Nexus One
[Nexus One General] wang1404:
True that everyone already what the hell business google is about. I was too disappointed the way they advertised the n1
[Nexus One General] Guitago:
I think that samsung phones build quality is in general cheap, but lets be honest, they can make phones with nice specs, and then there's those qualcomm chipsets that HTC put in the their phones, they're just awful, which kinda makes you consider buying samsung phones.
[Nexus One General] Naffets:
This is the exact reason I'm still using my N1 - normally I upgrade as soon as the next best phone is out, but the Nexus is just perfect. The build quality is amazing compared to any samsung phones.

And seriously, I'd miss the trackball too much.

With that said, I have a Galaxy Tab - and think thats great, but I don't carry that with me every day so the cheap plastic doesnt annoy me as much
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
The snapdragon, even first gen, is not too shabby at all, and it beats the hummingbird in a lot of CPU tests. The advantage of hummingbird is the graphics. In fact, I think the nexus one was better at scrolling smoothly over the nexus s in most cases because graphics was not yet enabled on the S. CPU vs CPU the snapdragon seemed to out perform it imo.
[Nexus One General] Guitago:
Well, to be honest I never used a the nexus s, here in Brasil is too expensive to get new devices, I used only the galaxy s, which I think is basically the same device, only in a different housing, and it was pretty fast. I used a Nexus One too, but obviously the roms were different (even though both were using cooked froyo roms) and I know experience may vary, but the galaxy s seemed much faster.
[Nexus One General] k_myk:
I'm sorry, but I can't agree with you about that MotoNexus crap. Only US of A can be happy with Motorola customer service and update policy... Ever heared of the Milestone? Yeah, Droid with GSM... Today it can only run stock 2.1 krenel because of MotoPLCY and locked bootloader. Rest of the world is so fcuking tired of hearing their craptalk that they would never buy a Moto device again! Well, Nexus phones are not ONLY American phones.

Also I actually don't like the idea of releasing Nexus devices by different manufacturer each year.. It just doesn't make sense for me. Google is a company not different from others, they count each dollar when it comes to spending money. N1 was a good compromise between cheap and technically good, htc made it that way as they did with desire. So... What's the point? Even if Mofofaila would bulid another Nexus (NX? They seem to like that letter) what would be nest? LG? ok, and then?

P.S. If anything what i wrote is unclear, tell me. It can happen, because english is not my native langueage:)

EDIT: BUT I agree about those dual mics. They do make a difference for me too! :)
[Nexus One General] Thermogenic:
+1 for dual mics

The call sound quality on the N1 and the Droid X are what attracted me to those two phones. In my opinion, it's a MUST HAVE feature and the single biggest reason I haven't bought a Nexus S.
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
but remember, if Moto is making the next nexus, google will be the one controlling the software, not moto. moto shouldn't be able to lock the bootloader in the next nexus without google saying yes.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
If they go thru all manufacturers they can always just go back to HTC again, or any of them. HTC to Samsung to HTC to Motorola to whoever. There's no rule in place to stop them from going with whoever they want.

I wish they would stay with HTC always, personally.
[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
agreed 100%

I'd love an exact clone of the N1(maybe black aluminum), just with the latest greatest internals...dual core, etc, etc..

They could even put a trackball on there that doesn't "track" or roll....so we can keep our color alerts and they don't have to keep repairing broken trackballs. :)
[Nexus One General] mcmahos1:
if google lets motorola make it im boycotting androids

motorola has a bad track history with android phones
[Nexus One General] wang1404:
Well it seemed faster on the hummingbird devices because the gpu perform much better than those in snap dragon chips. But talking about performance of the cpu is completely different from gpu
[Nexus One General] jivemaster:
Strange. I picked up a nexus s and like it better than the nexus one. The super amoled screen is superb, and the gaming performance far exceeds the n1. Not much of an upgrade if you don't game, but if you plan on running the latest stuff at a good frame rate, it's excellent, with the only better stuff being tegra. The camera on the phone is definitely better quality than the n1 camera too, which is really saying something, because the n1 had a good solid camera.

I still have my n1 and don't love it any less. It's a brilliant phone and I'll keep it forever. I just think the no reason to upgrade excuse is a little thin. The old 1st gen snapdragon isn't in any way as epic as it used to be.

Once gpu acceleration hits with honeycomb/ice cream sandwich, this baby will fly.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
Apart from the ****ty build quality lets not forget Samsungs terrible track reccord for updating their phones. Its not the Behold 2 incident, but taking 6months to roll out an update is pretty bad....
[Nexus One General] Guitago:
Well, that is exactly my point. I'm talking about the chipset in general which includes the cpu and gpu. What's the use of a cpu with a lot of processing power if the gpu can't draw things on the screen at the same pace? And you most certainly won't use your smartphone to do heavy processing tasks. The final experience is what matters, and the galaxy s really delivers a fluid experience (and nexus s should as well), without lags.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
the problem is the nexus s is not using the GPU yet for anything except the 3d app drawer. its disabled on the web browser and home screen scrolling etc. that's why the nexus one is significantly smoother on certain websites and whatnot.

the galaxy s was the same way but samsung updated it with a monster graphics enabling patch that enabled the graphics hardware everywhere. nexus s is missing this and hopefully will get the update soon.

when i saw this video of an android phone (galaxy s) with hardware acceleration, i nearly pee a little.

THAT is what android experience should be like! that's how the iphone get's such great praise by everybody.
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
My first Droid phone was a milestone I bought new before the telus version and it only ran 2g... talk about disappointed. And yet I would still consider a moto phone. I loved the feel of the Droid... it was solid and had a good feel to it. Motorola nexus would be awesome but I can't wait... I'm getting the atrix on bell and hopefully it'll work on rogers.

Sent from my Google Phone
[Nexus One General] Guitago:
In that case you are right about the nexus s, samsung really screwed that up, though they are probably going to update it, but releasing a smartphone when there are still development to do is just nasty.
[Nexus One General] bjonesy77:
I'd LOVE this. If they made an exact nexus 1 replica with a dual core processor, front facing camera and true multitouch, I'd pay a verrry pretty penny for it.

I wouldn't trade my N1 for any phone on the market today. All of the phones have some sacarfice whether it be build quality or spec. The N1 is truly the best all around device that exists
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
Agree about these new phones all missing that one feature that makes it not worth it. I especially rule out these phones with these small 1200mAh batteries and huge screens. Nexus one battery may not be the best, but that extra 200mAh makes a difference in my mind.
[Nexus One General] h4rp0on3r:

[Nexus One General] Basil 123:
I saw one the other day - here in the middle of Nowhere (middle east) and had a chance to play with it for a bit. TBH the initial feeling of Wow was replaced by a feeling of - I'm happy with the N1.

Will wait for a really major leap forward in androidness - I figure September time there will be gadgets a-plenty to choose from and a a price that doesnt involve posturing with a barrel....
[Nexus One General] lchiu7:
Well if it's HTC who make the next Nexus, I hope Google does better QC. I am on my 4th N1 and that's not perfect but I gave up doing anymore RMA's because my earranty period ran out during the multitude of RMA's I was doing.

Eve now my current N1 has a sloppy SIM card holder so I have to stuff a piece of paper between the SIM and the holder to make the electical connection!

I have seen rumours that Motorola might make the next phone - that might be a good choice since their hardware is pretty solid.
[Nexus One General] prettyboy85712:
Google doesn't do the QC. HTC does, it's their hardware.
