[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siscopiso:
I know there are a lot of ppl out there like me who are thinking of getting a tablet especially now that we are gonna be bombarded with all sorts of tabs in different sizes, OS' and brands.

personally I wanted to get a Galaxy tab but it just seemed to give me nothing more than a bigger screen than my DHD. now I'm happy that I waited as there seems to be interesting tablets coming out such as HTC Flyer, Galaxy tab 10.1, Motorola xoom, Blackberry playbook, LG optimus pad, iPad 2 ....

I for one wanna know what other DHD owners think about tablets; their arguments in buying or not buying a tablet, price ranges, capabilities and so on.

so please share your ideas.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junta_mpb:
I will buy a tablet this year. I just dont know which.

I would love to get the HTC Flyer, I think Sense for Tablet looks spiffy, but I'm a bit dissapointed they are not using Honeycomb. Samsung seems to have a nice one... Lets see how much they go for before I decide on anything.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iSkull:
I would buy one if i could afford it but sadly i am a poor student so it won't be anytime soon.

But if i should buy one right now it would probably be the Xoom even though it should be madly expensive well that is if least if the rumors are true ($800!!)

The Flyer also looks nice but that's all i think would very much have liked it with Honeycomb and a dual core CPU, simply because if i have to pick up my tablet instead of my laptop, i at least want it to have a lot of tabs open in the browser + maybe a game or something else and i think a dual core would be better for that.

But buy the time i am buying a tablet the iPad 2 and Galaxy Tab 2 are probaly out so i think i would go for the Tab sin i have bought far to many apps to go on a new platform.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iachimo:
FYI

HTC confirmed that the flyer will be updated to Honeycomb.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xpuser:
A while back I bought a netbook, as it was easier than going upstairs into the spare bedroom to use the desktop - especially if I just wanted to browse a page or two or check my email. I then got a smartphone, as I could check email, and browse the odd page a lot easier. The next step does seem to be to get a tablet. However I dont think I need one. Then my nephew came to stay for the weekend, he brought his ipad with him (hes only 5 years old!!). He spent his time on my phone, and I spent some time on his ipad. I got to admit, being able to pick up a tablet and start surfing within a few seconds is really convenient. Also with the bigger screen it was easier, and more readable.

I dont need one, but will probably get one - it wont be an ipad/ipad2 - but probably an android tablet. The motorolla xoom, if it was cheaper. I am willing to spend £300, no more than that on a tablet. The htc flyer also looks good, if it could be linked tightly to a phone, i.e. sync apps, app data between tablet and phone...then that may sway me to go with a htc tablet.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siscopiso:
thats an interesting point, to go with the same platform or not. it is nice to have the same platform as your phone which would give you some advantages such as using your apps and the fact that you are comfortable with it. but I for one wanna have something a bit different so it would just be bigger screen. maybe Honeycomb can serve the purpose since its not gonna be a smartphone OS.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xpuser:
It does look very nice. The addition of a stylus sounds good. The only down-side is that its "only" 7" screen.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siscopiso:
yes, having your phone linked with your (future) tablet seems to be an essential point. I liked how this was implemented in Blackberry's Playbook where you can sync (almost instantly) with your blackberry through bluetooth. so yeah I hope for android and HTC it goes beyond syncing contacts and calendar.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junta_mpb:
In that case, Im getting it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm8:
I use tomtom for navigation, a pda for personal stuff, a netbook for quickly surfing the web at night, and used to have a nokia x6 abviously for phone calls, games and navigation. When I bought my DHD, I dont use those mentioned gadgets anymore as the DHD does it all. What will a tablet do that my DHD cannot do? A bigger screen I suppose, I'll just use my netbook. So I dont think I need a tablet. My DHD is plenty enough.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkolev:
Can there be Sense for Honeycomb? I've heard rummors that Google had gone the Apple and WP7 way in terms of third party UIs. Or am I mistaken?

I personaly think 7" are a little too small - worse than 4.3" in terms of mobility (for me even the 5" Dell is too much) and worse than 10" in terms of the big screen experience the tablets are supposed to provide (something like comparing the tiny iPhone's screen to the DHD). On the other hand Sense and alluminum body... sounds like a DHD on steroids :cool:.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iachimo:
Seems im the bringer of good news in this thread.

FYI:

The flyer will have a new sense based HTC skin. Ill get the pictures today and post a link here.

I want the Adam Ink... if they get them in stock.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
If the HTC Flyer gets upgraded to a quad core or decent tegra chip, or something future friendly, then I'll probably go for it.

Edit: Ah, I didn't see your post Iachimo - we posted at a similar time - nice pic.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iachimo:
:)

But i agree the specs are a tad weak when u compare it with the current competition. Allthough im pretty sure its a "feeler" product just so see how the market responds and what user difficulties the owners run into. Six months later they will try to launch the 10'' version (probably with dualcore and integrated gpu (wouldnt count on tegra))
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkolev:
Yes, but it's shipped with 2.4 (the new Gingerbread) not 3.0 (Honeycomb)

... Or not?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iachimo:
shipped with 2.4 and getting 3.0 in the future.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkolev:
My point was that it might have to loose Sense if you go for a 3.0 update (if it's true that there will be no custom UIs for HC).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siscopiso:
True true, that seems to be what HTC has been doing, and I must admit its pretty annoying when they announce something and then 3 month later they release 10 better devices. I was looking at videos from the Barcelona congress and HTC has at least 4-5 more devices than all other manufacturers! I'm not sure I wanna go down the same road with tablet that I did with the phone (btw I had the desire befire DHD)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siscopiso:
I'd like to see that actually, then it all comes down to performance as they all run the same OS and we can see which hardware is indeed better. although I must admit it will get boring after a while.:p
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdauser2000:
I would also look at ports such as number of Usb, hdmi and I hear one of these up and coming tablets has a removable battery. Then if you want a custom ROM go with the tablet you expect is going to get the biggest audience.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulcoop007:

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
I've really been loving CM7. One of the features that caught my eye right away is the Theme Chooser: while it is still being ironed out, it has some great functionality.

That said, I've come to realize that it causes some very strange interactions on my phone and have stopped using it. I just wanted to give the heads up to other users.

Some specific examples:

I use Autoruns to control what apps are allowed to automatically run on my phone. After flashing CM7 and experimenting with the themes, Autoruns stopped working. Specifically, when started, it would no longer show all of the apps that have autostart privileges on the phone. Instead, it just showed a few entries for Android itself.

It didn't occur to me that the issue was because of the Theme Chooser. I thought it was just a Gingerbread and/or CM7 issue with Autostarts. But after speaking with the developer, he related to me that this was a known bug with applying a theme with the chooser. I switched back to "system" in the Theme Chooser and he was right: Autostarts returned to full functionality.

As a workaround, you can apply changes with Autostarts, then apply a theme afterwards. Your changes from Autostarts will stick, but if you need to make future changes you will need to revert back to the system theme temporarily.

The other major issue I was having was with WidgetLocker. WL would remember all my settings and sliders, but if I placed any 3rd party widgets onto my lockscreen, they would disappear on reboot. I tried all sorts of wipes / uninstalls / reinstalls, but the problem persisted. Frustrated, I again believed that this was because of Gingerbread and/or CM7. But as soon as I reverted my theme back to system in the Theme Chooser, this problem also went away completely.

I never contacted the WL devs, so I don't know if this second one is a recognized issue with interaction, but I can reliably induce the problem.

So I just wanted to pass this along. If you are using the Theme Chooser, consider reverting back to system if you are trying to investigate any weird problems. If two of the major apps that I use were affected, I'm sure some others are as well.

I'm not saying that the Theme Chooser has to be avoided: just that it should be considered as a variable when investigating buggy behavior.

(I am posting this outside the Nightlies thread as I'm not sure what other roms might be trying to user this theme chooser.)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
Well that may be a valid point. However I am more inclined to believe the majority of people having app issues is because a good deal of developers have not yet updated their respective apps for GB compatibility. Seeing how there's only... what the Nexus S running official firmware? Not discrediting your statement of course. Just another idea relating to improper function or nonfunction of apps.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
I am not saying that Theme Chooser should be considered the primary culprit for all problems. Rather,

That is all.

Your point about GB compatibility is of course valid, but I gave two specific examples of repeatable bugs that I was able to directly link to the Theme Chooser.

I also must not be the first person to have experienced the issue with Autostarts, because the developer responded to my initial query within minutes. I thought it was a GB issue and asked when GB would be supported. Right away he asked if I was using the Theme Chooser in one of the CM7 nightly builds, which I was.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
I understand. I wonder what's happening with it specifically, have you ran a logcat while duplicating it?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
Here you go...

With theme set to "system" (I.E. Theme Chooser isn't active), starting Autostarts logs the following:

I/ActivityManager( 170): Start proc com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts for activity com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts/.ListActivity: pid=2431 uid=10112 gids={}
I/ActivityManager( 170): Displayed com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts/.ListActivity: +486ms

With a custom theme applied, starting Autostarts now shows:

I/ActivityManager( 170): Start proc com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts for activity com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts/.ListActivity: pid=2646 uid=10112 gids={}
I/ActivityManager( 170): Displayed com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts/.ListActivity: +380ms
W/AssetRedirectionManager( 170): No such resource found for com.android.music:drawable/progress_horizontal
W/AssetRedirectionManager( 170): Unable to attach target package assets for com.android.carhome
W/AssetRedirectionManager( 170): No such resource found for com.upwardspiral.theme.Red_Remix:@drawable/wallpaper

Since the Theme Chooser is redirecting the system to utilize separate resources, I guess some apps just don't appreciate having a "middle man."

I'm not knowledgeable enough to say whether:

1. Apps can be modified to deal with this issue

2. Some Theme Chooser themes themselves may be built in a such a way that causes this

3. Theme Chooser itself is the only thing that can be changed
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] igknighted:
Hmm... could it be that the theme developer didn't account for extra options that are now available? Seems to me like it could be a theme issue, not a theme-chooser issue.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
Could be. That was one of the theories I posted above.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Phateless:
Thanks for this thread, will pass the info along to the MT4G guys.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] G8351427:
Thanks for this note; I have been having the issue with Widgetlocker losing all the widgets after a reboot, and switching to the system theme resolved that issue.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
Now that CM7 has a labeled stable release, I'm bumping this thread. A lot of people will be trying CM7 for the first time and may wonder why they are seeing weird behavior.

I've noticed a lot of people asking in the CM7 threads when the CM team will fix this issue. Please understand that the Theme Engine is T-Mobile's app: it was not written by the CM team. Any fixes that come down the pipeline for it will presumably be from T-Mobile, not from the CM team.

Also, just to add some more detail to the issue, here's a quote from the author of WidgetLocker:

Some users have even reported this problem on their home screen with certain launchers, while other launchers are problem-free. This would seem to suggest that there are two different methods that developers are using to bind to widgets, but that is just speculation on my part.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mit90:
How do I disable or remove themechoose as it comes with CM7 builds? And I'm not able to remove system apps.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] byrong:
There are lots of ways to remove system apps. Titanium Backup is probably the easiest, and the newest versions of it also allow you to back-up system apps themselves (rather than just their data, like in the past)

You can also just delete apks from system/app using something like Root Explorer

You can also use ADB

...you get the picture: lots of options :D

The theme chooser apk is "ThemeChooser.apk" under system/app

You could also just remove ThemeChooser.apk from the CM7 flashable zip before you flash the next build.

All that said, removing it is not necessary to avoid interaction issues, but it's your call.

Hi community! i have a little problem. since a few hours i am not able to open my drafts-folder anymore. if i choose folder->drafts my mail programm quits with following errormessage:

"The application Mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

-- -so i was searching for a fix for this problem. one possible solution was to delete all data over application-manager (settings->manage applications->All->Mail->Clear Data).

it worked only as long as i saved another message in draftsfolder.

-- i also tried to use ROM Manager's option to "Fix Permissions". that worked a few times for other problem, but not this time.

-- i was using DL.DesireZ.v3.3.final.nand by dandiest and yesterday i flashed to new version 3.5. i thought my problem was gone, but its still there..

i dont know why this is happen even if i flashed a new version..

thanks for any suggestions

Ok, i did it. i've found a *.db file in rootsystem. /data/data/com.htc.android.mail/databases/mail.db

How to deinstall HTC Skins?

i now know why this error happens to me. i now started gparted and formated my sdcard (fat and ext4) and flashed again< the error was gone. haha

so i started to set up my phone and reinstalled my applications. to be sure i tested every time i installed an application my drafts folder.

after install of a HTC Sense Skin called "rEVOlution" from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=801928 my mail programm brings the same error as before when i want to access drafts:

"The application Mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

so for me this skin causing this error. i know have to know how to deinstall it?

edit: yes thats it. if i change back to default htc skin i am able to access drafts... weird.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] redplate:
solved

to remove the skin and get rid of this error (in this case) you have to delete following files and folder:

/data/data/com.htc.skin.revolution

/data/app/com.htc.skin.revolution-1.apk

then restart. done.
