hi Paul...how bout $5?? =P..thanks for your reply..You are full of hidden Java awesomness i can see....ok heres the thing..if i dont slide my keyboard out...it works just fine with launcher pro's settings....so what im trying to do is edit the androidmanifest.xml of launcherpro so that it will only disable landscape layout in homescreen not in other apps. After lots of reading, i found out that if i add the code;

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">

it will ignore the physical keyboard. couple with the feature build in feature to lock screen in potrayed layout, i do think it can be accomplished..(i guess?)..pls do correct me if im wrong..

Therefore, the answer i am searching for is which part of the xml file should i add this code...

this thing really destroyed my already little social life...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jan Rune:
For $5 i can toggle Eclipse for you! :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Fr4gg0r:
I don't think it is legal, if someone edits the .apk for you... ;)

You can put that tag into an <activity or <application tag I think..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jeremy89632:
Why not go to the LauncherPro forums and suggest this to them.

Fede will be more than happy to accept your suggestions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vesparados150:
thank you very much that tip is great!! i am currently working on it and testing it...

the android dev site just hav to many words in them...=P..i found out that even if i let android ignore the slider, it will kill it when i it slide out. therefore i am finding a way to avoid android killing launcher pro when i slide out..(correct me if im wrong)

will do....thanks...=)

Hi, I created a new games folder and put it on my main home scene and added all my games onto it. I cannot select this same folder if i choose a different scene without making a new folder and adding all the games again. This folder and its contents does not seem to be saved anywhere other than on the scene i originally created it in.

Is there a way to save folders and its contents so that if you change scenes you can just drag that folder onto the new scene like an app
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
Simply you can´t...cos every scene has its own coding.

I know what happens when you do a factory reset/wipe, but what exactly happens if I only wipe Dalvik Cache? (I'm about to flash a ROM, don't want to do a complete factory reset/wipe, but wondering if I can still help "eliminate ghosts" by wiping Dalvik Cache.)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Bump, is this just like a crazy question or something? ;)

What exactly does wiping Dalvik cache do?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaetm83:
dalvik is a virtual machine in android operating system that runs applications, which is similar java vm. dalvik builds some sort of cache of applications (i wouldn't go into details) to run them faster in dalvik cache space. you can clear them out, and android will rebuild the cache on the next boot. and the initial boot will take longer than usual once you wiped the dalvik cache because android needs to rebuild it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
So it's something that you can safely wipe on occasion right, just to clear up any bugs?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaetm83:
when you flash a custom rom, usually the rom automatically wipes out dalvik cache to remove all that junk from the previous rom.. you do not need to wipe it regularly unless you flash apps or any other system modifications on top of the existing rom via clockworkmod recovery very often
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
But is there any "harm" in doing it? Any consequences other than a longer reboot time?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notverycreative:
Not at all. Apps will just be a little sluggish for a bit.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrozenflame:
Using Kies to goto 2.2, does that wipes Dalvik cache? Koz I went to 2.2 from kies mini, then ODIN'd a Voodoo kernel and i never wiped it manually...

so should I?

many thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellette:
You are trying to not factory reset but any rom you will find will have a system, data, data_data and cache wipe built into it. You can try finding a Rom you like and remove the wipes from the update_script but those wipes are put there on purpose. Kies will wipe everything too.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartek25:
or use root explorer go in to system and find dalvik cache and delete files =>
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avie14:
sir can i ask a question?

is it normal to boot so long when i accidentally wipe dalvik cache? because im afraid and thinking my phone was brick what can i do to turn it back normal? wait to boot the system?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Yes it is normal for it to take longer than a normal bootup. It is rebuilding the Dalvik that was just wiped. #nosorcery
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArcherEmiya:
Thank you for this question, thank you guys now I know that wiping dalvik cache is not that bad at all.

Funny...it was $152 when i posted but closed at $65

I do not think he is a cheater

The title of the lot is written exactly what he sells, in the description of the lot as spelled out in detail the appointment. Not even English-speaking customers convert the text in the description before you buy the lot. Perhaps for this lot are fighting a service company that would purchase description and then make upgrades tablets.

GPS on a 10" tablet? Apart from using it in walking mode, why? It would be useless for a car, it would take up half the windscreen and mopunting at dash level it is going to block off half the controls.

Hello fellow forum members;

I have done a lot of searching on the forums and still cannot find clear steps as to going about upgrading my DINC from 2.1-update1 with baseband 1.00.03.04.06 to a 2.2 working rom. Most of the time, i'll download the zip and rename it 'update' but it will fail and abort. :(

Initially, I rooted, then followed the walkthrough video to UNroot. Now, ive been stuck on 2.1-update1 for days and my phone will not update to 2.2 OTA and im getting

extremley

frustrated. THis firmware is no good whatsoever. Can anyone help me in getting the CORRECT, WORKING zip package to load into recovery?? I'll paypal you cash if you get me up and running, without quesiton. Im desperate.

Thank you in advance! :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
If you are still unrooted with stock recovery, then follow the instructions at http://www.droid-life.com/2010/08/31/manual-update-droid-incredible-to-android-2-2/

Be sure that when you rename your update.zip that it is in lowercase and that it's not inadvertently named update.zip.zip. Also, make sure that your sd card is formatted to fat32 rather than fat. That should put you where you need to be.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baram:
try dialing *#*#2432546#*#* and seeing if that updates it. should force a check for updates if they've been pushed by the carrier at all. works better than the check software updates in the settings.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrLangly:
Najaboy: Will try that right now, thank you for your replay man. My SD card is already in Fat32, so i'll dump it at the root and give it a shot.

Baram: i tried that, getting a 'success' message, yet the firmware still stayed at 2.1-update1

I will report back in a few minutes after folowing Najaboy's request.

Thanks again, guys.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrLangly:
Ok, got a 'Status 7' Error upon running the zip. Both downloaded files return a Status 7 error. I"ve looked up some help regarding this but the ones i've come across are not very clear, and sometimes the answer could be like...20 pages back from the first post due to down links and such.

Instantly regretting my root attempt.

Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Check your current software build number. It should be 1.22.605.2 in order for the update to work.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrLangly:
My software number is infact 1.22.605.0
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
At this point, I'd probably just re-root and get S-OFF. After that, follow the tutorials for upgrading your HBOOT to .92 and radio to 2.15.00.7.28 via PB31IMG.zips. After that, you'll be able to use any of the 2.2 ROMs including a stock one.

It's a bit more involved and carries some risk if you don't follow the proper steps, but is the same upgrade path that I used.

The upgrade.zip path that we tried for you isn't going to work since your phone doesn't have the May OTA. I've done some searching and can't seem to find it available online anywhere and some members have indicated that VZW is no longer able to push it- instead offering certified like new replacement that have it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
Have you tried an RUU? My suggestion would be to go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=786436 and try the "Part 2: 2.2 stock using OTA RUU"

Basically all you have to do is download this http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.26.605.1_RUU.zip

Make sure your SD card is formatted as FAT32.

Put the PB31IMG-3.21.605.1_RUU.zip to your SDCard, rename it to PB31IMG.zip

Boot into HBOOT (PWR + VOL Down) wait a bit and it will ask you if you want to update. (VOL + UP) It will then update to the stock 2.2, with the 2.15.00.07.28 radio.

Also DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY! And make sure you have a good charge.

Then you can re-root using the latest UnrEVOked, it does the S-OFF for you as well.

Now that the original thread is closed, perhaps it should be OK for us orphans of this NAND ROM to discuss our problems here.:o

If we are lucky, maybe MDJ will re-surface and post updates to that excellent NAND in the relevant section.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AntonJart:
Even Honeycomb is compatible with Phones, it will never be a Phone OS. It meant to be for Tablets only.

By the way, last week MDJ said that update is almost READY! All we can do is hope that it is true!

By the way, some people on eBay sell MDJ's ginger on ebay with instructions, hundreds of copies...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tropicanapure:
Nah, he did post about an upcoming update. The mods closed it down because the thread got unwieldy (over 1500 msgs) and MDJ did not respond in time to their PMs. :p
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AntonJart:
Nope. Cyanogen released note that they are not very happy about Unofficial builds of their work. That is why they closed it, because of GPL.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tropicanapure:
GPL - as in GNU Public License :confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] coldest~~~:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
Interesting that cyanogen mod would get upset at unofficial releases of their work. especially since they are the original android hackers and chefs. And I really doubt the mods closed it because it got too big.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 0x0000ff:
The issue is licensing, not unofficial ports - the GPL license requires you to provide access to your source code. MDJ did not provide his source code despite many requests for access to it

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] the_scotsman:
I'd like to clear something up, to stop all these "rumours".

MDJ's thread was closed because his threads are not in compliance with the requirements of the GPL.

Once he contacts the moderators with the information he is required to provide, his threads can be re-opened.

It has nothing to do with cyanogen or anything like that.

I guess this thread can stay open as a "support" thread as long as no links are posted to any of his ROMs.

How would you compare the battery life of the Nexus S vs the Nexus One, after loading a custom rom? Would like to make the switch provided the battery life is better! :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
I get approximately the same battery life that I did with my N1 - no real improvement seen (stock or custom rom wise).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rushy_Rush:
Hmmm not sure if that will make it break it for me if they are about the same. I heard some complaints about NFC draining battery, has that been solved?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DKYang:
That's the first time I heard about that. I've had my NFC on (didn't notice) and have had great battery life on light use. On light use, it lasted about 24 hrs before I charged it, never used it much for that one day. NFC doesn't gobble up battery like a bad app would.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
The battery life on the NS is substantially better for me than I was getting on my N1, even with a slightly larger battery on the N1 (Seidio 1600 I think it was). I'm a fairly heavy user, in my opinion, and can make it through 16-18 hours and still have some juice left to spare. My N1 would never do that on the stock battery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rushy_Rush:
I cannot remember where I read about the NFC problems, but I could of just miss read something. I will see if i can find it! Thanks for the comparisons!

I am also I bit missing the trackball of my Hero. Scrolling is not a big deal. There were 2 main uses for me:

there are some sites with very small image-links or buttons, so it is easier to select links/buttons them with trackball's navigation

search requests or URLs, which are submitted with typos - that's a pain. In most applications if you will start to retype them you will have a history list, but you can only resubmit them. There are really few apps, where there is also pencil-icon to the right of history entry, which allows to edit it. While with trackball that was that easy.

Hi.

I am just working on my own driver. I tested its body and seems to be ok but I have some problems concerned with the fact, system does not want to load it at boot time. Fortunately I can load it further having already access to the shell so I know it works as it should.

I suspect that maybe it is caused driver is not XIP'ed becuase it has been created as single dll file. Maybe my driver .dll file should be inserted in kitchen as module for example in mydriver.dll directory and I have to place in this directory needed Sxxx files and imageinfo files like other available drivers have ? Am I right ?

I recently rooted my phone and put the stable version of Cyanogenmod on it. I like my phone a lot better now, but there is one downside I can't seem to get past. There are 2 exchange email accounts that I want to connect to, but doing so forces me to enable either a pin or password for the lock screen. That also means that the emergency call button is right there on the lock screen.

I let my 18 month old son play with my phone. He is smart, but I know it is just a matter of time before he starts calling 911 from the lock screen. If it is possible, I would like to get exchange emails on my phone without needing the lock screen. Before the mod I was able to use Lockpick, but apparently that doesn't work with 2.2.

Does anyone know how to either override the need for a pin/password with exchange or at least get the emergency call button off of the lock screen? Thanks!
