Also, I hope to have an incremental release out soon that will fix the Swype issues, as well as modify the startup script a bit.
[Droid 2 Android Development] bigxie:
1.4.1 is up now. Swype is fixed for D2 users.

Also, some changes under the hood. No need to wipe data coming from 1.4.0, just wipe cache.

------------------------------------------

Unrelated, the Blur dialer I use in this ROM only works at 240DPI, so that is why it crashes to desktop -- only if you change the LCD density. This will not change, and only affects the very small percentage of users who choose to mod their LCD density.

In the case you do use the LCD density mod, Dialer One is a great alternative in the market.

When trying to access toolbox i get a syntex error i am able to updatetb just fine though
[Droid 2 Android Development] Abowersq:
Yeah me too. I just updated and it decided not to work anymore. Thoughts?
[Droid 2 Android Development] scarsofthumper:
Fabdroid.com is down, that's why you get syntax errors in the toolbox.
[Droid 2 Android Development] bobstro:
The updatetb script doesn't seem to do any error checks, so when you run it while the site is down, it actually downloads the web hosting error page and over-writes the previous version of apextoolbox with it. If you open up the script, you'll see the HTML.

I pulled the older version of the script from the .zip to get it working again.

Is there a way to remove the startup sound?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Abowersq:
Big Thanks to BIGXIE because Apex toolbox is back up and running. Just run updatetb in your terminal and things will sync again. Awesome ROM and awesome work.
[Droid 2 Android Development] cfaherty:
Go into the Toolbox (refer to post #1) and under one of the menus there are options to change the startup screen with and without sound.

I just got my gtab yesterday. Changed some stuff today. rooted, installed tnt lite, titanium backup, dolphin browser. Yet I cannot get any web-based tv to work. I like to watch stuff on megavideo or wisevid, but neither one wants to work. I get about a half second of sound on megavideo before it totally boots me from the browser.

I get "Data connectivity problem: The connection to the server was unsuccessful." just trying to load the megavideo page, not even the video yet.

I hit "Okay" and the page still displays. I press the play button and half a second of sound later... I'm booted.

What can I do?

Thanks!

Using a browser. am off to try the lite version of that app, but the main reason I use browser is there are more accessible shows on the internet than most apps will have. I like british tv and lots of odd sci-fi type stuff.
[G Tablet General] jmwyrd:
okay, just tried the tv app and got booted back to the app every time I tried to view an episode. I'm guessing it's something to do with my flash version. How do I find out what I have vs what I need? I could not find the link in the app forum. please help.

Is there a way to nand unlock?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] aaho:
What do you mean by that?

NAND is the internal memory place of the device and wht do you mean by unlocking NAND?
[General Questions and Answers] namila007:
i never heard about unlocking NAND
[General Questions and Answers] rosswaa:
So you can write to it I guess, there's a app that needs nand unlocked to work, SMS limit unlock
[General Questions and Answers] Clookeno:
Try the following in ADB

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

once you use this command you should be able to push to the /nand directory

if not push the file to the system directory using ADB and then try moving it to /nand from there...

That being said, i don't think i've ever heard of an app that needs access to the /nand directory like you are describing...
[General Questions and Answers] Michael_robert:
Hi,

I have used the following steps for unlocking NAND:

Step 1: Search and download the froyo rom of your choice.

Step 2: Place the rom on the sdcard in the bottom directory

Step 3: Open "Rom Manager" and Select "Reboot into Recovery"

Step 4: Once in recovery select "install zip from sdcard"

Step 5: Locate the rom you placed on your sdcard and install it.

Step 6: Once the update is finished select "wipe data/factory reset"

Step 7: Confirm the wipe.

Step 8: Reboot your phone.

Now the phone has rooted with the NAND unlocked.
[General Questions and Answers] rosswaa:
That's been done since I had the phone, thanks anyway

So Installing the XBMC from Market won't work. Figured out that simply downloading the latest version here:

http://android-xbmcremote.googlecode.com/files/XBMC_Remote_v0.8.5_r730_signed.apk

Then move it to your ..\platform-tools folder and rename it to "XBMCRemote.apk" (no quotes, Case Sensitive!)

Then, fire up adb, and push it to /data/app:

adb push XBMCRemote.apk /data/app

Bingo, Bango, XBMC Remote.

Thanks to altimax98 for this method. (also works with Angry Birds, see his post)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] altimax98:
And if you use titanium backup you can relink it to the market and hopefully get updates ;-)

[XPERIA X10 General] curious_yellow_eyes:
Ok, so there was a lot of discussion in Z's FreeX10 thread regarding whether it improved/worsened battery life, so I am running a little experiment. With the aid of Juiceplotter I ran for a few days on FreeX10b4, and then on the stock(ish) Rooted JIT 2.1.A.0.435 found here.

Beta 4 Over 24 Hours

Beta 4 Zoomed in on a period of use

Stock .435 over 24 Hours

Stock .435 zoomed in on a period of use (not the same day as the first image)

Typical use is just web browsing, not games or videos. It certainly looks a little steeper on the Beta4 graph.

Tomorrow I'll flash to the previous baseband and repeat for beta3 vs. Stock. If anyone knows how to make the pictures smaller I'd be grateful... I know how to do it in HTML but I've never posted anything in PHP before!

26/02/2011 Ok, after much delay I'm now running .49 baseband, flashed using Zhidhu's pre-rooted 2.0.2.A.24 found here. As some in the comments have noted, results seem to vary wildly w.r.t. battery life, which is why I thought I'd run tests on them all using the same handset and the same usage (i.e. mine) which should eliminate most variables.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Mine is the best it's ever been personally... Seems like results are extremely varied.
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
I get a vary of result for example today it has used 49% of the battery in 4 hours o.0

[XPERIA X10 General] Red_Dragon76:
I totally agree! My x10i may last even 3 days with moderate use of data and wi-fi, barely 1 if use it like it has to...
[XPERIA X10 General] goRt:
. 435 very good battery life here having struggled on beta4
[XPERIA X10 General] shooi:
I think there may be a bit of a battery or power glitch. My phone has stopped charging a couple of times, once at 74%, the other at 92%, and the battery has got quite hot. A swift reboot sorted it.

Generally, I think FreeX10 may be a bit heavier on the battery, but it's really hard to tell because it's so much nicer to use compared to the stock ROM that I think I'm using the phone lots more than I was :-D
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
I had some woeful battery time with Freex10Beta3, but then yesterday it was fantastic - sure, I wouldn't get 3 days out of it, but I could have pushed 1.5 easily...

Trouble with battery life is that it isn't an exact science (should be), but it seems you can change nothing, and have some drastic improvements. Or hardly touch the phone one day and it's dead in no time.
[XPERIA X10 General] orangeyoh:
My X10 since new always drains my battery in one day, it's not a hardware problem, since i got a replacement, and then a battery replacement, i wish we could improve the batttery life a little more

i'm on BETA4
[XPERIA X10 General] compumasta:
I'm not gonna say my battery life has been amazing lasting for weeks or anything but ive had no problem with it. I mean it lasts more than a day or maybe more than two with relatively light usage. And if I'm constantly on it I can drain it in 8hrs but I never drain it completely. And I've seen consistent life over the roms I've used as long as the flash was good which sometimes takes a couple times. My mom has one and she uses it only sparingly and it lasts over a week so in reality for having a computer in your pocket the life is not that bad. Besides do you really need to update your twitter status every 6 minutes?? :P

Sent from my Delorean using a flux capacitor!
[XPERIA X10 General] clubfreeks:
Nice Idea. :)

Personally I found that the battery life on Beta 2 was better than Beat 3 and 4.

Is is possibile to add it to your test?

Also the only only diffrence between Beta 3 and Beta 4 is the Baseband...
[XPERIA X10 General] curious_yellow_eyes:
That's really what I'm testing... however I haven't had time to flash back to the old baseband yet. Real life tends to interfere...
[XPERIA X10 General] Ulvesjo:
30% left after 13 hours off heavy usage, no auto killers, wifi on, about an hour talk time.
[XPERIA X10 General] gfraizer:
Using Bitsnacker's 2.1 ROM on .435; no data, BT, GPS and STILL a strange battery leak I can't seem to trace. F.Y.I. also using SetCPU and AutoTaskiller, and a few Sysctl tweaks, so I may have created conflicts in my ignorance....
[XPERIA X10 General] curious_yellow_eyes:
I've had a couple of times, since using b4 a weird thing where I plug it in and it drains really fast down to zero while charging. Rebooting seems to fix it though.

If it happens on b3 or stock 2.0.2.A.0.24 I'll know it's a fault with the handset and not a software issue.

I thought the 30/month with TMo was unlimited..
[Vibrant General] lawalty:
What he means is data throttle. All the wonderful sim-lock carriers in the US is capped at 5gb of data. If you exceed 5gb, then you'll be throttled slower than dialup. Technically its unlimited, but throttled.
[Vibrant General] lawalty:
What I don't get is it is in Hulu's best interests to have Huly playing (their free version) on any and every mobile device out there. Its the market foot print for their advertising. Their marketing dept needs to go back to school!
[Vibrant General] spiz516:
Oh yeah I forgot about that... that is pretty dumb. 5GB in one month is a lot of usage though. I've never even come close to that, but that's not to say I wouldn't with Hulu. Giving it a try though.
[Vibrant General] megatherian:
It's the networks (crying about DRM) who are holding it up, not Hulu.

Hulu did announce last month official support for Android is coming soon.
[Vibrant General] mrpeepers86:
Hulu's marketing team understands that just fine. The people who don't are the old school content companies that own it(Comcast/NBC, Disney/ABC, News Corp, etc.). They still think that by locking down their content, it will force people to keep paying out the arse for it, rather than just pushing more people away.
[Vibrant General] Nabeel10:
Wait so is hulu free for vibrant?
[Vibrant General] lawalty:
Thier up-coming free android app will be (i assume) for their Hulu+ line up. Which is their paid $7.99/mo service. I will also assume that Hule has no desire to reslease their free website for the Android browser to watch shows, because they see Google TV as a competitor not a platform. Yet, I built my windows box hooked to my hi-def TV and can watch streaming Hulu content all day long through my windows box (i cut my cable about a year ago). Microsoft is not pay Hulu one nickle, but Google TV (android) is seen as a competitor!

To answer you question, NO - Hulu is not free on your android device, unless you can find a hack to watch it.

I ran it again with clockwordmod and installed zip. This time the progress bar completed. After I rebooted it went into safe mode.

I rebooted again and was able to access the hulu app. It seems to play videos without problems, but it only shows the top third, and no option to do full screen.

I also tried to play in skyfire - with desktop setting, but it just kept showing a black area where the video is supposed to be.

I am doing some research on the feasibility of RIM's rumored "ambition" of running android apps within the Blackberry Playbook.

As many of you know, this has been "discussed" on several blogs over the past several weeks (can't post links as a new user): news.cnet.com/8301-13506_3-20031474-17.html

this is where my question to the developer community comes in: what do you guys think of this venture? Will the experience be seamless? would it require extra effort for you to get an Android app to work on a Blackberry device (whether it be a tablet or a smartphone)? Would be curious from a developer point of view how you guys view this transition. Finally, what do you think the user experience would be like with a RIM device? would it be seamless for users in terms of experience. There are news reports that blackberry won't be using dalvik to try to pursue this transition, so im curious also if this changes things:

appleinsider.com/articles/11/02/10/rim_playbook_to_run_android_apps_but_fears_oracle_lawsuit.html

Maybe you have been throttled by Tmobile. Have you gone over your cap of 5gigs? Our data plans are not truly unlimited, but you atleast you have received a text from Tmobile first. Thats my guess.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrathbun27:
i sometimes have a similar problem but it sounds like youre tethering via usb, correct? I use mobile ap to use the net wirelessly off my phone and have had issues with it either not connecting at all and giving an error or just never connecting. My solutions have been quick easy fixes and figured id share but not sure if they would work for you or not. When it gives the error in mobile ap i simply click settings and then save (not changing anything) and then turn it on again and bam it works... When i get no connection after it works, or if i lose connection while online, i flip the phone to airplane mode for about 45 seconds and then turn airplane mode back off and turn mobile ap back on and everything is great. I also have the "unlimited" data, and i use it a lot, actually 3 days ago i looked and was at 4.7gb used... and havent looked again but i gotta be over the "5gb limit" and i havent been throttle capped at all.. Everything is running great speed wise... figured it would be worth a try if you wanted to, like i said, not sure if it will help your situation but just in case it might thats how i get around the data drops.
