So all of a sudden my swype will not swype. When i changed my input method from swype, to android keyboard, and back to swype it pops up and says that thos swype is made for a different phone model.

I am on the beta. Tried reinstalling with same results. Wtf?

Swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
I think this happens with the beta expires.

Thank you. Time for me to go get an apk then

Hello XDA Gurus,

I am running Bionix-V 1.2 TW kernel 2.6.32.9 Baseband version T959UVKA5

I have applied the AOSP update as well as the ThinkDroid and WifiCalling updates.

I seem to be having problems with the call quality, I can hear fine but anyone i talk to says I sound very muffled, this is without the headset or Bluetooth...with the headset I hear echoes of my end of the conversation....

Any one have any ideas on what I can change to try to remedy this? Should I try a different radio or modem? I am pretty happy with this ROM, but not averse to putting a new one on .. :) Thanks very much for any suggestions
[Vibrant General] txr_maxx:
I went through the same thing before, not sure which rom, flashed so many, but I can say this, "The main feature on your device is Calling, and if thats not working properly than everything else doesnt matter cuz at the end of the day you'll still have a crappy phone" def try something different and address the issue with the devlpr and hopefully that gets fixed and you can flash the same rom again. Just my opinion
[Vibrant General] iscrewup:
try flashing different modem. KA5 is the worst in terms of voice quality for me. I use KA7 or JK6 modem.
[Defy General] cheena:
I'm using Eclair 3.6.360 on US Defy. I'd like to try the Orange/Polish Froyo, but I'm wondering if anyone tried it on a US phone and managed to get 3G working. Also, would I be able to go back to Eclair? Thanks.
[Defy General] ngfletcher:
Should be able to use this app on any froyo ROM. I'm using it on the UK 3.4.2-117 ROM, but haven't been to a 3G area to confirm it works, yet.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djsooty:
Hi there my phones just been in for repair comes back fine and within a day headphone jack and call speaker decided to die on me. Basicaly i can only hear somoeone on the phone through loud speaker and the headphone jack just not registering headphones inserted.

I at first thought it was the rom ect. cyanogenmod 7 RC1 btw but i soon found out it wasnt .

I believe that i have to take it into for repair again but the problem is i cannot connect my phone to my pc to use the RUU. tried on a few computers as well. It just won't detect it i have tried putting htc sync on/off and all other drivers still no luck. I dowgraded it last time using the bootloader which worked but this time it doesnt.

could someone please help thankyou
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You tried booting to Hboot and plugging in your USB there?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djsooty:
thanks for reply

yeah i have pal, h boot fast boot u name it,, i had this problem before i had it repaired first time, basically i came accross this by accident from previous downgradng put in my goldcard which had downgrade files, bootloaded it and funily enough it worked put me back onto stock. i get an error now saying it's too old or something, u have any links for other downgrade or any other ideas thankyou
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djsooty:
all good :)

Well ive got it back to stock, basically i extracted the rom from the RUU, wiped phone, installed the rom from my goldccard using Bootloader :),, so send it in, still got my hardware issues but least my warranty isnt void ..
[HTC Inspire 4G] glparke:
So what does HTC Sense Sync actually sync and where does it sync it to? I am on the 200mb plan so I am trying to watch my usage.

I created an account on the HTC Sense website but the only thing on there is the ability to find my phone.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
I'm kind of wondering that too, it sure seems to want to sync an awful lot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
I think one thing might be text messages. I got a new Inspire because I thought mine had a problem and texts received with the previous phone showed up in the messaging app after syncing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sucram6791:
its a different type of UI it specializes in keeping you in sync with everything in your social world, it does sync a lot but you make it sync only when you want to
[HTC Inspire 4G] joriq:
so, to clarify:

what does Sync HTC Hub do?

and

what does Sync HTC Sense do?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ridethisbike:
google is your friend. These links took me all of 5 seconds to find. quit being lazy

HTC Sync:

http://htcsync.org/

HTC Hub:

http://www.htc.com/help/hk-en/howto_iframe.aspx?id=126851&type=1&p_id=416
[HTC Inspire 4G] joriq:
it took you five seconds to get the info I did not ask for :D Maybe you should quit being lazy and read the thread and the question first?

the first link you posted is for HTC Sync software for PC, the second one is of concern to Windows Mobile phones.

What I wanted to know is, when I go to settings/accounts&sync//HTC Sense, I get:

Sync HTC Sense

and

Sync HTC Hub

my question is what data

exactly

do these 2 options sync?
[HTC Inspire 4G] toxicpaulution:
+1
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
well, before you attack soemoen that helped you, maybe read those websites. I went to them and learned what they do. I mean if you need it written in crayon im sure someone here has some they can draw up a picture for you, otherwise dont come here asking noobish questions then attacking someone that pointed you where you can find the info you need.
[HTC Inspire 4G] joriq:
I've read them:

1. "HTC Sync is powerful software that lets you maximize the use of your Android-powered HTC phone." - not an answer to my question!

2. "HTC Hub is where you can check out weather forecasts, stock updates, and news. It's also the place to go to find out what free HTC apps you can download from

Windows Marketplace

. " - not an answer to my question! (news are a separate sync item in accounts&sync, as well as stocks and weather, so it leaves Windows Marketplace, yeah, that must be it :D ).

Also, he attacked me first for being lazy and then provided an answer he looked up for 5 seconds and obviously did not bother to read it first :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
htc sync is just ur contacts, mp3s, pictures u sync with the matching software on ur pc. the hub is just a useless place u can find a couple themes 9 backgrounds and a handful of widgets, its not updated ever lol. and getting it to sync with the htc software is a pain and has been for many people. best to avoid both imo :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] ridethisbike:
dude.... they don't do much. everything listed on those two websites is what they do.... like darunion said. just leave them alone. they suck.
[HTC Inspire 4G] joriq:
AFAIK, the options in settings/accounts&sync//HTC Sense also sync SMSs, list of installed apps, enable you to use the dashboard from htcsense.com (so, remote wipe ur phone, make it ring even if different sim is inserted or locate it on the map if you lost it and password protect it remotely, with a message you want to display on the phone). These options do not have anything to do with syncing with the PC (I do not have any HTC software installed on my PC).

HTC Hub on the other side, AFAIK, has the themes, ringtones and HTC widgets and such, so Darunion is correct in that part.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Darunion mentioned contacts. I think it only syncs the "phone" contacts. Not sim or google. And you are better off if you just have all your contacts as google contacts anyways.

The Sense syncing has also something to do with your location too. Updates your location for phone finder I believe.

But with or without the turmoil in this thread we have to agree that most of this is worthless. Especially when it only works half of the time.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ridethisbike:
turmoil shmurmoil ;)

i dont take anything on the internet seriously...

its like they say... "fighting on the internet is like being in the special olympics. even if you win, you're still retarded"
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
OK that was out of line. On that note thread closed
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sgtblunt:
In also can any boot screen go on any rom?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Adam1422:
COD boot animation IMO is the best. And they will work with any Rom.

Call of Duty

Need for speed

Halo Reach

Those are my top three, but then again its all personal preference! There is also a stickie with a collection of boot animations and splash screens that you may want to check out!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] triscuit1983:
That's all personal opinion. I usually end up making my own or tweaking an existing animation for myself. There are several more animations in the Android Themes and Apps thread you can check out.

And the boot animation working on any ROM (in terms of flashable zip) depends on where the ROM developer installs the bootanimation.zip and where the flashable zip is installing it. Meaning you need to know where the ROMs bootanimation.zip is. The normal two locations are "/system/customize/resource/" or "/system/media/".
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Tower1972:
I agree with the Call of Android one as well (well CoD)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bckoolaid:
+1 COD Animation. Truly is personal preference but the COD one is pretty cool.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sithanas:
So I got a G2 and am now stuck trying to figure out how to trigger the Voice Actions application with a press of my headset button instead of the crappy Voice Dialer application. Phone is brand new and non-rooted. Should I be rooting this thing and removing the Voice Dialer or what? Pain in the butt to have to long-press the Search to trigger the better of the two programs.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talesin_BatBat:
Seconded; I'd love to be able to do this, along with maybe setting which media app to launch with an A2DP 'play' signal if nothing is running. At the moment it's a bit of a toss-up (and occasionally two start up at the same time, with different tracks playing).
[XPERIA X2 General] tttt9999:
I have installed Total Commander.

In address bar typed \custapps\ & found all the CAB files which are installed by default when the phone is formatted.

I wanted to know whether can I delete these files & add m own files by any methods possible ???
[Nexus One General] BlindWolf8:
Hello all,

A long time ago I was messing with the trackball colors on my Nexus One with the Blink application. I uninstalled it, and later had formatted the phone. However, even when formatting the phone, I noticed the custom colors I set via Blink seemed to stay. For example, I colored the Google Voice voicemail notification green and a Facebook notification blue.

How can I make sure that Blink's settings are cleared out? Or, is it possible that Google has updated said apps to make the trackball flash certain colors?

Thanks all. :)

Mods: Move this as needed. Just noticed. Sorry.
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
Apps can flash trackball colors. The apps you mentioned are flashing their default colors as they should.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
I am trying to do my first Rom install, i have read the instructions how to, but still having issues. the white screen of death that will not go away. I am using RA and following the step by step guide. See below. I have checked to make sure i have root by using terminal and running the su to verify i have root and my S-Off. Completed the nandroid backup and doing the myn rsls5 with wimax radio update. So i did the following.

<> Select the ROM you want and download it

<> Plug your phone into the PC and select "disk drive"

<> Now drag/drop the ROM to the SD card of the phone

<> Disconnect from the PC and reboot phone in recovery

<> NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING!!!!!!

<> After you nandroid back up select "Return"

<> Select "Wipe"

<> Wipe the "data/factory reset" and "dalvik-cache" and "Cache". It is recommended that you wipe each one at least twice just to be sure.

<> Once your done select "Return"

<> Now select "Flash .zip from sdcard"

<> Select the ROM you downloaded and flash it!

<> Select "Return"

<> Select "Power off"

<> After phone powers off turn it back on and enjoy your new ROM!!!!

NOTE: First time boot up of a new ROM will take a while because it is booting without a cache.

I first run the myn rom then after that completes I run the wimax radio update and then do the power off and restart.

after all this happens the screen just sits there. am i missing something as it looks like it should be simple.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cutthroatamft:
I would try wiping userdata after the rom flash. I got some hangups on that before.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
It does appear as though you've done everything correctly. How long did you let it sit on the white 'htc evo 4g' screen for? Sometimes it can take a good while, I swear I've had it sit on that screen for what felt like 10 minutes before the bootanimation started. If you're positive you waited long enough and it was just hanging, I would try downloading a new copy of the ROM, doing another complete wipe of data, cache, and davlik cache. Then I'd flash Calkulin's Format All.zip (attatched, and this wipes system and boot as well, ensuring a complete wipe). Then flash RLS5 again, and try to reboot. As long as the first time you flashed the Radio updates was successful, then you should'nt need to flash them again, as they don't get touched during any sort of wipe. However, you could try flashing a new copy of the radio update, just be sure. The phone should reboot, just be patient with it. If it does indeed still fail (at least 15 minutes on white htc evo 4g screen) then I'd try flashing an alternative kernel. Hopefully trying that will get you booted up.

Edit: you could also try the same setup in my signature, it works very nicely on my phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
I will give this a try, i waited 25 minutes. is it ok to flash the radio before i run the rom? thanks for the advice.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
It shouldn't matter which order you flash the Rom and radios in. As long as you flash them both from the same recovery session, don't reboot in between flashing.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
that did not work, sat for about 45 min before i did a restore. Not sure what is going on. ran the wipes and then your zip file and the new files i just downloaded both radio and rlsl5.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Dang, that's crazy, I'm kind of at a loss here. The only other thing I might try is flashing one of netarchys kernels, after you flash the Rom, before booting. And yea, 45 mins is waaay long. I've seen a couple random incidents where people just couldn't get Myns to boot, no matter what they tried. Strange. Try the kernel, other than that, I'm unsure.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
i used the Rom manager to do Cyanogen and it did the same thing. must be something up with my phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
So does ROM manager work with Amon RA now? I know you used to need to use clockwork to use ROM manager, and that RA wouldn't work with it. Did that change? Were you using ROM manager the entire time? Or doing it all manually from recovery? If you were using ROM manager, I would suggest against that, and do everything from recovery.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
originally all from recovery using RA. i thought that i would try rom manager and see if that worked. it used clock.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Gotchya. So have you been able to flash any roms at all since you rooted? Nothing will boot up for you, except your nandroid backup? I'm puzzled by that. I don't know what else to recommend, short of running RUU back to stock, s-on, then try re rooting. And that's just a guess, probably what I would try if I was in your situation.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
havent been able to flash any roms, how do i do RUU? almost temped to do that and reroot. To root i used unrevoked if that helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I'll post the links in a few, I'm not by my pc right now
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmeitz:
One thing i notice since i did the restore/recovery, battery wont last more than 4-5 hrs when just sitting around. not sure what is running in the background to drain it. Also, when opening up webpages or email it is very laggy. when you click on the email it takes about 10 seconds for it to open up? same with webpages, not as slow though.. Also when trying to get emails it takes about 30-45 seconds for it to recieve andthing. the icon on top just spins and spins. use to only take about 10 seconds or so. I did flash the updated radio/wimax? would that cause the issues?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zorak950:
Wow, great to see some early practical demo work! Gives me hope that NFC might not be so useless in the near term after all. :P

Thanks! ...Now I just have to wait for 2.3.3. >.>
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
wow! thank you!

time to play with it :D

darn that sucks, it wont let me install it because of the version :(
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
Sorry we made you guys wait, but we wanted to make sure it was in the market the second the OTA came out, which is any day now according to google.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
Correct, we make hooks in the software so it only installs on phones with 2.3.3 and NFC. These requirements are needed to do NFC tag writing.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chaval:
Great, so unless the OTA is on this weekend, maybe in the coming weeks:rolleyes:

Can you tell us of other features on 2.3.3 other than the official ones? bugfixes and whatnot?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
OTA is expected to happen any day now (I'm hearing Monday is the day, but don't know for sure).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] leerobson99:
Sounds good to me, don't know where I am going to be able to test it out though, not much nfc stuff on the go in the UK lol
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chriscole:
Yubikeys are quite neat, fairly inexpensive, USB security tokens. They happen to have a MiFare classic NFC chip built in too. Fairly easy to get hold of across Europe if you want to experiment.

Check you WWW.Laks.com too. They sell a NFC watch.

Sent from my Nexus S featuring NFC by NXP
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] grippa:
ok so its clear that 'some' I9023's have 2.3.3 pre-loaded. its also clear that NXP guys have it, coz well they made the chip in the nexus (right?) and they cant test it without it. there's apparently some BT profiles also coming with 2.3.3 (file transfer, etc). can anyone confirm this?

I wonder what the hold up is.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] lancehudson:
I now have 2.3.3 but it still won't let me install.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] grippa:
same problem!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] davrosuk:
Same for me grrrr
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nono2357:
NFC TagWriter doesn't show in Android Market.

Can NXP investigate the problem?

Thanks.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] argilo:
Same for me. I just upgraded to 2.3.3 but I can't find the TagWriter app in the Market from my phone. If I go to https ://market.android.com/details?id=com.nxp.nfc.tagwriter on my PC, it won't let me push it to my Nexus S either as the device is grayed out.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] MDAC3:
Things like this are common when google updates a handset. They need to update the servers to allow the updated devices to access apps. some other apps will be missing to like the official Paypal app.

Have to wait. :-)

Seen this on another thread somewhere the other day.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] paulmac89:
For those of us who manually installed the update early is there any chance of NXP posting up a direct link to the apk? Not sure if that will work but I dont see why not
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dgdimick:
I'm starting to think this is Vapor Ware, or maybe Malware, they hyped the app, then seemed to falloff the face of the earth. Anyone try to install the app and see any weird things on the phone after?

Not saying I have, just asking if anyone has.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] davrosuk:
I don't think anyone has been able to install it yet since nobody's phone matches the required criteria (likely an error in the requirements XML)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jonc:
Installs OK now. Doesn't seem to do more than the standard/stock NFC Tag app atm.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dgdimick:
It writes

:o

So I just downloaded the app, and it writes to my card, at least my email address. Nice to see them fix the app, still not showing in the market app, but came up in the Web based Market.

Hey guys, sorry for the issues and not responding. I've been swamped with meetings all week since I got back from Mobile World Congress.

I have forwarded this info to the developers in my company and they will have a solution shortly.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
you should be able to read NFC cards like the stock app, but ours will also allow you to WRITE to NFC cards/tags that are not already locked to read only.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] grubynawro:
Hey! I'm from Poland, will you add compability to cards used in other countries than US? Or will you add feature to emulate credit cards?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
This will work with any NFC forum or MIfare card. It is not limited by region.

While NXP's Hardware inside the phone can do Card emulation, Google's software does not allow for it yet. We have to wait to see if Google has plans to put in APIs to do Card emulation.,
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
Oh I checked on the issue of our software not showing up in the android market. Its actually an issue on Google's side. It has to do with 2.3.3. They are aware of the issue and working on a fix.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] grubynawro:
Ok, but everytime I checked some card I have "unknown data" as result...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thepro8:
A few things cause this.

1. It's an encryped tag

2. Its nit a NFC forum or MIFARE tag

3. It's not Ndef formatted
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] davrosuk:
Does this mean that potentially the phone could have a MIFARE 1K written to it to be used as building access? How would we go about implementing this?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] grippa:
I have an old university ID card that has a mifare classic chip and i think its obviously write-protected. Is it possible to erase this info? and re-write my own?

I'm trying to find a way to auto-launch applications when a certain NFC tag is read. Are there any apps out there that can do this?

I basically want to launch the car home app when I place the phone in the car holder (i'll place the old uni card or some other nfc tag behind the holder)
