[Desire HD Android Development] bur2000:
Maybe that's a side effect, but basically the DPI tells the OS just how many DPI (dots per inch) there are. The DPI depends on display size and resolution so a high end phone with a large display can have the same DPI as a low end phone with a small display. DPI = resolution / display size. And it will affect the size of all elements:

For example you have a 60x60 icon on a display with a DPI of 300. The icon will have a physical size of 0.2 inch (0.5 cm). If your display has a DPI of 200 the icon will be bigger: 0.3 inch / 0.75 cm.

So things like the keyboard buttons or menus will appear smaller on displays with a high DPI and bigger on displays with a low DPI.

Generally bigger displays have a smaller DPI: the Samsung tablet has 170 dpi while the DHD has 217 dpi, which means that everything will be about 25 % smaller on the DHD as opposed to a tablet.

Unless you adjust the DPI. Which is what nex7er was referring to (I think :)).

Of course this adjustment is just a software based one. The hardware DPI can't be changed. You just tell the OS to act as if the DPI was lower. That means higher DPI can only be emulated with loss of quality.

[Desire HD Android Development] SupremeBeaver:
Fair point.. but being honest it is a little disappointing that the DHD doesn't have as much support from devs as some other phones on this forum. This thread sort of proves it with the lack of activity.
[Desire HD Android Development] Captain Honeycomb:
Yes I know but its nö problem for the devs to make an alpha built with sms working, if furs ask other devs and I think we only like a built to show the world our Honeycomb Haha ;D

[Desire HD Android Development] aavan:
Okay okay guys, please calm down.

We are all very excited to get a new version on our devices as soon as possible.

But remember, this here is an SDK image that was never meant to be used daily as a ROM.

It's here to help us, android app developers, plan how we can use the new version of the operating system.

Using that SDK only means bad performance, a lack of some features, and a loss of time for a lot of people.

In a few months, the honeycomb sources will be available for all, that's when a real, useful version of honeycomb could be made for all.

Now don't take me wrong, I'd love to test that too, but I don't want to have bad feelings towards such an "incomplete" version.

And as some will say regarding this topic, if you really want the SDK to run on your phone, download the SDK, ask for some help if needed, and just do it.
[Desire HD Android Development] Captain Honeycomb:
Ok ... i think you are right ;D
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
running a SDK is never good ;) when sources are out you will see the good devs on it :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Captain Honeycomb:

[Desire HD Android Development] dlads:
Is it possible to take the cool aspects from honeycomb and implement them onto a gingerbread build? possibly c7?

Just a thought.

I think the road to getting honeycomb up and running and optimized for daily usage is going to be a bumpy one.
[Desire HD Android Development] fatthumb:
I believe CM7 is already on feature freeze mode and will just focus on eliminating bugs.
[Desire HD Android Development] androf:
awesome!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] wastedtalent:
Why not wait for a 2.4 (or whatever the next release of Android for smartphones will be)? If honeycomb is as stated, just for tablets, then no doubt Google will also release updated versions of Android for smartphone's too, as clearly there are significant differences required in the design. Development will most likely have forked into two separate channels.

I think a lot of people here are worrying that Google are going to stop smartphone dev and concentrate solely on honeycomb. Clearly this isn't going to happen, as smartphones will still form much more of the market that tablets.

What's wrong with CM7? Seems better than stock to me atm.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
I'm surprised they're at RC status on CM based on some of the various bug reports and missing features I keep seeing pop up here and in the general section. The short answer to your question is that it's not-quite-ready-for-prime-time in some people's experience.

I'll turn your question around: what's wrong with stock? Gingerbread/NS is first Android combo I've not felt the desire to use a non-stock rom on yet even after two months.

To the original poster, I'll second what @suhas_sm said, you don't have a nandroid of your stock/rooted system? That should always be the first thing you do after rooting any phone, and the first step in flashing any new rom, ESPECIALLY a new rom that is in alpha/beta status (like CM7).

If you don't have your own nandroid, the development section does have nandroid images of a stock rom you can restore over your phone via clockwork recovery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejron:

[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Heck, the off-topic Mafia's Cook has no problem with this topic, so what's the big deal? It is semi-relevant, because love him or hate him, he started the REAL touchscreen trend. I'd imagine that Android would be using full physical keypads instead of touchscreen if it wasn't for iPhail, despite the general opinion of its usefulness.

Anyway, the rumour that Mr Jobs is dying is unconfirmable, as the original source is National Enquirer, which is a tabloid magazine. And the doctor who said he's dying based his opinion on pictures of Steve Jobs. Pictures.

Make of it what you will.
[Off-topic] SciFiSurfer:
There's all kinds of wild speculation flying around out there right now. The list of people who actually know what's the case is likely very small.

What really gets me though is the sheer hatred and malicious ill-wishing I've seen going on out there about Mr. Jobs. I think there a lot of jealous, personally insecure folk out there, and that's actually pretty sad. I mean, by way of example, I hate Microsoft and strongly dislike the attitude and actions of Bill Gates, but you won't find me wishing death upon the man, or anything of the sort on his family or friends.

It's clear that we have a lot of dangerous, irrational people out there, and this makes me sad.

I'm just curious as to how good Android would have been without the iPhone as a big fat target to shoot for. Apple would be no where near as influential or profitable, imho, without Jobs at the helm.

Does anyone have the exact method for installing Swype Beta on a stock based Rom (i.e. Iced Glacier)? I can't get it to install correctly at all.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osugsxr:
yes, I currently running cyanogen I pulled the following from stock, or evil roms..

you ll need two files....

system/app/swype.apk

system/lib/libswypecore.so

Anytime I updated from cyanogen, I would still have swype but received the for close error, until I pulled the libswpecore

hope that helps

edit....think you want to download it from the swype site, enroll in the beta program and you should be good to go, may have to remove the above files to get the beta though
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geoi1006:
I got it figured out. I'm already enrolled in swype beta, thanks though. The question was how do I install swype beta on a stock based rom, Iced Glacier in this case, in which Swype is a system app(protected if you will). I got it figured out though. If anyone uses swype beta then they know that its much sexier than the stock Swype included lol. But without further chit chat here's what I did:

Using Super Manager I:

1) Mounted the system as r/w.

2) Went into System» App» Deleted the swype.apk

3) went into System»lib» deleted the libswype file

4) Then followed normal install procedures as laid out in Swype Beta using the Swype Installer you receive when signing up for their beta.

It should be noted as with any system file you may or may not need later that its always smart to back up the stock Swype files for future restoring if needed.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethutch:
My lib was named libSwypeCore.so not libswype.so. Although that may be because I had / mounted rw but didn't actually delete the files first.

This was really terrifying. Swype is what makes the difference between me needing a phone with a keyboard or not. I find the poke&peck keyboards absolutely unusable.

But I was very envious of the mic button built into the keyboard because I've also found the voice recognition to be shockingly good. Historically I've found voice recognition software to be about 30% accurate and generally produced results one would expect from a slightly retarded monkey.

But I digress. These instructions worked perfectly and the new Swype is even cooler than the stock one.

Swype is an application I would pay a significant amount of money for. But free works too!

i did this on my stock rom, and swype basically deactivates itself after the phone is rebooted. swype keyboard will come up, and peck-typing works, but the swyping function is disabled. i've seen this before when playing with swype hacks. it means it's not licensed properly. i removed swype.apk and libswypecore.so manually before doing this.

is yalls swyping functions still working properly after a phone reboot?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geoi1006:
I have to select the android keyboard then reselect the swype keyboard on every reboot. I find this is necessary on sense based roms mostly.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netter123:
So is there any way to get the beta version to properly recognize its license, so you don't have to manually switch away from, and then back to, the beta Swype keyboard after each reboot to get it to work correctly?
