Hi all,

I have been using TnT lite 4.2.x for a while now, and am very happy with it. Well done to the developers.

An issue that I am experiencing is scrolling when viewing webpages, especially the xda website. The screen when scrolling is not that smooth. I tried as an experiment the Vegan ROM and found it much smoother when scrolling.

Has anyone else noticed this too? Apart from that (not that it is a huge issue), the ROM is great.

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet General] jasturbo02:
Running 4.2.3 and also notice this.
[G Tablet General] fab4272:
Just bumping my own message with a question.......could it have anything to do with Flash content? Do the Vegan Rom and TnT lite Roms use different flash players?

[Droid X General] Ben's:
So, my phone has been acting strange in the way of data. I lost the ability to download non market content and some other buggy quirks. I have tried to full SBF with .340 in RSD lite, installing different ROMS and clearing out my SD Card completely. I have been really flash happy lately but I think it's had enough lol.

My only option is to clear the phone out completely and SBF with RSD lite. But, will that work? Can I delete every single file on my phone and still be able to SBF? I have so many files that have no relation to what actually needs to be in my system but I am afraid to just delete it one by one and really cause a nasty brick. Any thoughts or ideas on this?

If a SBF with RSD Lite won't clear the damn phone out, what other options are there? paper weight lol?

Edit: After further research, there seems to be an issue with my phone's stock browser. All other browsers work great.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lobi8:
Hi

I hope you can help me with the following problem:

(my software was: Android RevolutionHD 2.0.11 with no sense script and the theme from he_stheone64)

okay: i wanted to install a radio with the sdk - doesn't work; okay so let's restart the phone - only the spashscreen is there - no boot screen or my launcher - okay then i wanted to go into the recovery to restore my backup - i didn't came in -.- - so let's flash the recovery manually with the command shell

that was what i did in the cmd shell and what i got back

it looks like it would work doesn't it? but it doesn't work...

when i tried to come into the recovery the same thing as everytime happened: i saw my spashscreen....

have you got an idea how the flash the recovery in another way?

and have you got an idea if it is possible to flash a rom in the bootloader?

I hope you can help me (i can't say it enough times ;) )

regards

Jakob

ok so i was checking out a wp7 phone yesterday for the first time and everything was looking great.. but i noticed the dialer screen is just the dialpad and a display of the numbers you have punched in.. does the job but come on.. how about some innovation..

i have a windows mobile 6 phone and when i start dialing a number, it shows me suggestions from contacts and more importantly, recently dialed numbers..

so for example if i called someone 2 weeks ago.. and i only vaguely remember the number, i can punch in the first 2 or 3 digits and the rest will show right up...

anything like this possible on wp7?? its kind of important for me
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] olyloh6696:
this feature is called 'smart dialling' yes it is missing from wp7. but microsoft hace said tht in the next update, coming ver soon, it will have this feature ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wmcookie:
oh i see.. so im not the only one hoping for this feature.. thanks for the info.. you wouldn't happen to have a link to somewhere where i can read about it? did microsoft publish this information online?

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] olyloh6696:
sorry not sure where I had the link but a simple google search will give you the answer.anyway yesterday at the mwc the new update is confirmed for a march release.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wmcookie:
still really looking forward to this... haven't heard anything so far..also, it looks like the mango update will not be bringing this feature. :(

i did buy a samsung focus after creating this thread and the lack of smart dial is killing me.. i'm actually thinking of getting another windows mobile phone until this feature is implemented

When i go to "People" on my Legend it seems to cut off peoples names.

Its quite annoying since i can't sync their facebook pics to my phone contacts now since their names don't match anymore.

Anyone know how i can fix this?

Also, every time i try to uninstall an app using Titanium Backup my phone restarts :s, anyone know whats causing this problem?

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem.

I restart my phone every few days (old habit from windows 6.5 days)

Sometimes the phone will boot up and I get nothing on any of the screens but I can still make calls and access the address book but nothing else works. Sometimes I have to restart the phone 2-3 times before everything comes back.

Is this a bug in the system?

http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/14/qualcomm-promises-netflix-streaming-support-on-future-android-d/

Anyone read this yet? I mean, the HD7 (which has a netflix app) is running the same snapdragon processor as the Nexus One and Evo. This seams like a load of BS to me...:mad:
[Nexus One General] arkavat:
Netflix has issues with DRM on Android. Many game developers have also cited similiar concerns. The next version of snapdragon will handle DRM through hardware making it independent of OS.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Put attention to the blue part:

... meet all of the DRM requirements for Watch Instantly. ...

CPU power isn't the culprit and never was.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
so if it isnt a harware issue, then why has it taken them so long to implement these "DRM securities". WP7 had netflix on launch day, why didnt android get these back when iOS got them?
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Errrrrrm... because they all use a different software OS?
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
Once you create the program, its pretty easy to port it from OS to OS
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
Not if a key component of your program relies on a feature one of the OSs doesn't support.
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
I think the problem is the way android handles DRM - or that's why Netflix has issues, at least...

Netflix appears to be happy with iOS and Windows, and the way they handle DRM.
[Nexus One General] UmbraeSoulsbane:
Past post from Netflix seems to indicate they ate not happy about this either. This is a requirement of their licensed agreement with studios; not something Netflix wants. Same reason Netflix is not on Linux either.
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Still, Netflix have an app on the Logitech Revue, so all is not lost...
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
And that's the story of how I canceled my Netflix subscription. Thanks for the rips, but I can no longer justify the monthly fee, especially since the N1 just got **** canned as ever getting the app.

Pretty lame IMO. I can log on to my bank's website from my phone, paypal has an app, there is an app to accept credit card swipes with the phone and the square reader... yet Netflix can't figure out how to stream a movie or tv show to it safely. STUPID.
[Nexus One General] nwskier:
This has more to do with the movie and television studios than netflix. They've said to netflix that this is the only way to protect the mobile streams that they will accept. Netflix has to comply because no studios == no content deals.

If the only reason you had a netflix account was so you could watch it on a small 4 inch screen I would cancel too. That seems like a waste of netflix lol.
[Nexus One General] inconceeeivable:
On a related note, has anything relating to the rumored Amazon Streaming service materialized yet? I'm itching for a reason to drop my Netflix for a more Linux friendly solution. Really tired of being treated like a second-class citizen for using a better OS. :confused:
[Nexus One General] babyboy8100:
yeah, I don't get it? i mean,.. if you was to download the app you still have to log in right? So is not like you can hack it. Unless they're afraid of long press save video option but honestly who wants to save low quality videos like that?
[Nexus One General] Matt1408:
Yeah I don't understand the DRM thing either. You have to log in, therefore a DRM is already in place.

Maybe there can be some video capture software on the Android. "Great! Now I can capture a crappy quality mobile optimized video and throw it on a torrent website great!"

Hell, people probably already have Bluray rips up. It's not like Netflix gets their content in a timely manner...
[Nexus One General] shoryken:
yeah if your logged in than what does it matter, people have faster way of going around the whole drm thing on a pc/mac so why would too many people bother with a cell phone.
[Nexus One General] Facegarden:
Umm, what? You can still hack things you have to log into... They may know which user did it, but you could set up an account with fake information... The "hacking" netflix wants to avoid is people downloading full movies from them. People could make a fake account, download a bunch of movies from netflix, and then distribute them on the internet.

We all know that there are already better blu-ray rips available on the web, but the movie studios don't care, and unfortunately, they hold netflix by the balls on protecting their content. Its dumb, but its not Netflix's fault.

I'm as annoyed as anyone about this, but Netflix obviously wants to be on Android, its a giant platform.

The problem is, they are required by studios to use hardware encryption built into the processor on the device, but every processor is different and not all phones actually have the libraries needed to access that encryption (they said this, and I can see how that would be true). So Netflix says they are doing as much as they can. From all outward appearances, we can't know if they really are working as hard as they can or not, but its not unreasonable to think they're being truthful when they say that. It very well could be tough for them to implement.

I do think that if they don't figure out something at least for Tegra 2, and fast, they're missing a big opportunity, but lets not blame them yet. If its not out in a few months, then they're a bunch of ****ers, but lets give them time. If they get Netflix for Xoom before Adobe gives it flash, I'll consider them "fast enough". I don't think they will, but lets hope!

[Nexus One General] RJvXP:
I don't see the big deal of having Netflix on your phone. But I guess people really want to watch their favorite episode of Cake Boss on a 3.7 inch screen.

[Nexus One General] Foxwolfe:
Yeah I'm with you, I can never find the time to watch videos outside of short youtube clips on my phone, I don't see how people can watch a movie on it. I much prefer my netflix through my Xbox 360 on my 42 inch HDTV.
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
Just like with linux, this withholding of services due DRM probably causes more piracy to happen anyway. A linux user can not use netflix, (nor by rights should they be able to watch a dvd). So there is one final solution to watch a movie on their computer. Torrent it.
[Nexus One General] mrbkkt1:
I have kids..... 3 tv's and a laptop go around the house, that can all use netflix , but sometimes, I'm up late at night, and don't feel like running something big and loud.

[Android Themes] gseth:
With symbian on the verge of extinction after the alliance announcement, most of the themers who are pro at graphic software's like photoshop, illustrator are looking towards android for customization and skinning.

I being a Sony Ericsson and Nokia themer from the past 6 years, to be honest, find it to complicated to make themes for Android.

Firstly, i would like to understand if someone can explain why no theme creator application has been developed yet to make and apply themes to an un rooted versions of the phone, with a simple apk installation.

Currently from what i have seen on the forum, I cannot apply a theme unless i have a custom rom on a rooted device.

Believe me most of the users, don't go ahead an root their device, plus follow complicated procedures to install a theme.

Can anyone please shed some light on this, as i am really confused regarding Android and making themes for Android.
[Android Themes] Daneshm90:
No root means no rw access to /system, only ro

/system is where the apk's lie which need to be modified (themed)

The closest thing i can think of is the following two :

a) a launcher that supports theming....for eg adw,go launcher.....etc (Root is not needed)

b) a rom that supports theming. For eg cyanogemod...etc (Root is needed ofcourse)
[Android Themes] tgi007:
I agree that the typical Android user, just like the user of any phone, is not going to be happy with the idea of having to "crack" their phone in order to "theme" it (not only does this require a moderately steep learning curve, but it voids your warranty, including most aftermarket extended warranty contacts). What normal consumer would willingly paint their car a different color if the Owner's Manual warned that this would void their 50,000 mile warranty? But, keep in mind that the focus of "control" rests primarily with the carrier (Sprint, T-Mobile, Rogers, etc), so most development of customizable "things" on a phone are mostly meant to be customized by the carrier -- not the end customer.

The fact that the "Android ROM development" community has been able to find chinks in the security armor of various carriers' phones, in order to open the door to "rooting" that particular device, is an advantage to those of is that ARE willing to invest the time and effort to figure out how to "root" our device (to be fair, the vast majority of us are actually just following the instructions that some earlier pioneering soul discovered for us), then we derive the benefit of being able to, to a greater or lesser degree, customize our phones.

The carriers, understandably from their point of view, want the smallest possible matrix of product variation for their Tech Support to have to cope with. By their reckoning, the less the user can alter, the less can get screwed up. Additionally, some carriers generate additional revenue streams from their customers' ignorance. The classic example being to impose a monthly surcharge for "GPS usage", considering that the Google Navigation app is free, as is the usage of Google's servers that cough up the map image tiles, and perform the routing algorithm on-demand 24/7/365 (not to mention the estimated $1 billion/year/satellite (with 26+ birds up there) in operational costs, paid out of your taxes). None of the money assessed by the carrier for "GPS service" winds up in Google's pocket, even though the only burden the carrier experiences from the end customer's usage is flow through the data pipe.

It is precisely this kind of consumer-unfriendly carrier attitude that has made the Android platform so popular among those that wish to retain control over their own device, because we disagree with the carrier's fundamental vision of what we "ought to" be able to do with our devices. Nobody would tolerate their ISP decreeing what software they could (or not) install on their computer, so why should their smartphone be any different -- it's just a physically smaller computer with a radio modem squashed into the tiny case.

It's precisely why I waited for Android, while refusing to have anything to do with Windows Mobile, Windows CE, or iPhone.

It's why I prefer Linux over any closed system.

(Sorry, I guess I wandered a bit off-topic and into rant-land. My apologies.)
