Hmm... now that you mention it, you may be right. Odd...

I realize that. But because of the fact that it uses the Nexus S market footprint, it would also (logically) use the same Nexus S footprint over the AT&T network. Otherwise, what you said makes no sense.

Oh gosh that is so far from wrong it's not funny. "Care reps", otherwise known as technicians who fix your problems have every right to access your IMEI number without your consent. Your phone's IMEI is stored by AT&T as a ref number, and can be accessed from the AT&T database at any given time, even by the technicians.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
The nexus s is available on at&t? No. So why would it have an at&t foot print?

From my experience i had a problem and they started asking for the baseband version. They found out i was rooted but i acted like i didnt know anything so they just told me to flash back to stock. So it really doesnt matter

I just replaced 2 captivates taking to both the tech department and warranty and was rooted running phoenix the whole time and they never said a word....replaced them both...of course I flashed back to stock before sending them back in though
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Ok so they asked your baseband. And you told them something other than stock? Why?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianwood:
There is an IMEI record for the device you purchased NOT what you are actually using on the network. There is also a TAC reference collected by OTA whenever the SIM goes into a new device, but the care reps (industry standard term, btw) have no scripts using it as far as I know. For example, AT&T still reports me as having a Bold 9700 on my 1st line when it has actually been a Cappy since August. Bottom line, AT&T generally doesn't give a crap what device you use.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshua43214:
More accurate to say they don't care so long as they get their money...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
That was because I didn't know a lot back then.... but it wasn't a big deal. They just told me to go back to stock and nothing else happened.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptaaty:
Happened to me....I never used supercurios...only CM7.

Fot the OP I doubt they can tell....even less they don't care. I used the sim from an old Sony dumb phone in my old unlocked Nokia N79...and used an unlimited data plan for $15 and tethered.

So yeah, don't worry.

[Galaxy S II General] silverwolf0:
A generic looking Starfox demo? I am still skeptical about the grafix race on smartphones. It's getting caught in the same mire as the PC. Tech demos that don't mean anything beyond fps counters and nerd bragging rights. The games that people actually play, like Magicka and Minecraft, can work on ancient hardware, not to mention WoW. As long as it helps multimedia use, UI acceleration, and power consumption, it is still justified. But beyond that when the focus is purely 3D gaming and the battery life goes to hell and the phone turns into a hand toaster, hopefully they will reel it in and stay pragmatic.

Hi guys, I flashed CyanogenMOD 7.0.0 RC1 Gingerbread NIGHTLY for the Droid Eris

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
Just wondering about the feasibility of (someone with the know-how) creating a background app/service that could monitor and intercept the Nook's Vol+ and Vol- buttons, and if held down for a certain amount of time, perform

Menu or Back actions as well

.

I would think this possible, based on CM ROMs' ability to skip forwards/backwards from the lockscreen when music is playing, as well as the official XBMC Remote's abililty to change the volume for media playing on an XBMC box without interfering with the volume on the actual Android device.

Under the stock BN ROM I had remapped the Vol buttons, which wasn't a problem since the speaker was barely audible in the first place, but since flashing Dalingrin's OC kernel with the increased volume, I (happily) find the need to be able to change the volume levels easily.

I can't be the only one who's pondered this, but I've read through most of the threads and don't recall seeing this anywhere... If I've missed it, please point me in the right direction.

Thoughts? Takers?

Thanks.

You mean like this easily flashable script in the development forum (page 2).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=965023
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
I am talking an app which would retain volume functionality if the buttons are pressed briefly, as well as implement menu / back functions if held.

Unfortunately it looks like that script you linked to simply remaps the volume keys to menu and back -- without retaining volume functionality:
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] britoso:
Not exactly what you want, but a simple solution.

see this, tip #7. Its a simple edit to a text file.

Worked on CM7, heres my edited /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl vol up=menu, down=back
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
Thanks; unfortunately that is the essentially same as sparhawk's solution, and what I did under the BN ROM.

What I'm looking for is a solution via an application that

retains the volume button functionality

and

augments the buttons with menu/back ability

and

does not simply remap

the volume buttons.

If I had the slightest inkling as to how to do this myself, I would. Unfortunately I've tried and failed (miserably) so far at attempting to learn coding for Android.

I was hoping someone might be familiar with the way CM and XBMC Remote handle these intercepts and be able to adapt code, or create something similar for menu/back functionality.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Xephik:
I get what you are saying, but I don't think it would be possible. Notice how if you hold it down now, it will turn the volume down all the way step by step. When the screen is off, it doesn't do anything. If it was made to be held down to switch function, you would lose the ability to turn down the volume by holding it down. I know what I said is confusing, but just think about it lol. Have you thought about remapping tthe keys totally to menu/back, and then having a sound toggle in the pull down widget for the notification bar? You wouldn't have total control over the levels, but at least its something.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
I am running CM7 n11 on the nook, and regardless of whether the screen is on or off: if music is playing, when I hit the volume button, the volume level is changed. Not sure what you're referring to.

I don't necessarily think that's the case.

Example: somehow CM is able to retain volume functionality and add skip next/previous track in music player. When I refer to the ability of CM to skip forward/backwards when music is playing, I am basing this on my experience with CM6.12 on my Droid1.

Yeah, done that and didn't love it. I believe a solution such as I'm suggesting would be much more "integrated," elegant, and convenient.

Basically the app would intercept a volume button press:

- brief press: button release < 300ms, app performs volume function

- long press: button held down or release > 300ms, perform back or menu

Are there any experienced devs who provide some insight?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Mat Sumpter:
I've seen this behavior to control the Android music player. And honesty I don't see why it couldn't be adapted to throw a back or home interrupt. But to implement it is beyond me!

Here is a GitHub repo to handle the Android player on long press up and down but also still handle volume changes on short press.

https://github.com/metalhead8816/android_frameworks_policies_base

And I'm pretty sure the specific commit would be

https://github.com/metalhead8816/an...mmit/7504617a9211a65ce767281c59668e8641b8a14d
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
We're on a better path now. Thank you for posting concrete evidence of the volume buttons serving two simultaneous functions.

Could that code be used as a base for a standalone background app/service to implement the desired functionality? Better yet if it could be built into a ROM such as CM, but a standalone app would be perfect.

As this is really a question for devs, should I have posted this thread in the dev forum?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Mat Sumpter:
This code was put in for eclair so it won't apply cleanly to the Froyo code. But I'm sure a DEV with good Java knowledge could hack this into the current policy framework. From the code this appears pretty integral so I doubt this could be an outside apk that we install. This would likely be an alternate framework we'd need to apply to a ROM much like a style. But again I'm not an Android developer so I don't know for sure.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] britoso:
Button remapper works for the simple remapping, but not for the longpress actions.

I have half a mind to attempt writing a simple service for this

long press menu->vol up in 20% increments

long press back->vol down in 20% increments (may interfere with CM7 long press to kill functionality)

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/12/back-and-other-hard-keys-three-stories.html

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4983605/send-button-volume-button-action-listeners

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
A service sounds (to a non-programmer such as myself) like it would be less involved than framework modifications, and portable across ROM updates.

And personally, I don't mind "losing" long-press-kill functionality as I never use it anyway... I'd love to see some progress along these lines... go for it. =)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
If you decide to attempt create a service for this, could you be make the long/short actions customizable?

i.e. :

Short press Vol+: Volume up / Long-press Vol+: Menu

Short press Vol-: Volume down / Long-press Vol-: Back

vs.

Short press Vol+: Menu / Long-press Vol+: Volume up

Short press Vol-: Back / Long-press Vol-: Volume down

In most applications, Menu and Back are usable via the status bar; since that functionality would be redundant, it would be nice to retain quick access to volume for short presses. For instances where Menu and Back are not usable in full-screen applications, long-pressing the buttons to perform menu and back actions doesn't seem like much of an issue.

Actually, if the Menu and Back were long-press actions, couldn't you implement functionality to kill the current app if Back was held for a specific amount of time?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tj!2k7:
Just thought I'd bump this back to the top... any devs out there who might want to take a crack at something like this? :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Palestra:
Until we get Honeycomb AOSP this "hack" would be perfect!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] kpc01:
I'm on the lookout too. I'd much rather have my vol up and down keys then have them as back and home. Unfortunately I lack the skills to code it so far!

Can not in any way get windows 7 to acknowledge my defy in bootloader or USB debugging mode no matter what I try.

Have an old WinXP laptop that I do all my rooting needs on, but I would like to know why the heck the motorola drivers for win7 don´t recognize their own product?

Have recently uninstalled the motorola package and reinstalled, letting the computer restart sufficiently in between, but nothing...

It finds the s flash omap3630 by name, but no driver for it. I have even let it search through the entire windows folder for it but nooo... nooooo! :D

Annoying to say the least.

Plus the fact that it works like clockwork (!) on the XP computer tells me that there´s something terribly wrong with motos win7 coding attempts.

Well... I'll probably try this for another week or so then give up and stab myself in the heart with a used fork!

Had to go into the computer's Device Manager, find the OMAP3630 device, choose update driver and then browse the computer manually.

-Then it installed correctly in bootloader mode.

Whew... I searched the motorola log file to see where they installed to (the drivers) and finally I cracked this nut! (Takes a nut to crack a nut)

There go! If anyone else has problems with this then here's the solution!

Yep, that is one of the packages I tried... That and 4.8.0 and a whole bunch of others (uninstalling inbetween) but no driver for bootloader or USB debugging in windows 7.

I really had to find the install folder myself and point the omap device to that folder manually.

Why the hell do they leave the device drivers in a "Program Files" folder instead of a "Windows" folder (like the ones drivers are supposed to go)?

And why does the installatiion package work flawless for most people but not for some?

Anyway... I don't care at this point. Problem solved.

If you have this problem, search for the driver manually in the folder I specified above. Then it kicks in!
