[G Tablet General] Synman:
Quite the opposite actually. I believe we are caught up in emerging standards ithin the tablet space.

The reality is that as developers we've been coding our apps for phones assuming that the specifications we were coding to would carry forward to the tablet and that is simply incorrect.

Apps that do not take rotation into account while working with the accelerometer are going to have problems.

A lot of devices componsate for this by exposing a "normalized" faux orientation sensor. Those that have relied on this sensor in the past (self included) need to take into consideration that it may not always exist and access the accelerometer directly calculating worldview ourselves.

I was dissapointed... hell even nvidea recommends going native for some of the work... It still doesn't feel right but thats the way it is for now.

My app, AR.Pro, and numerous others, are proof you can have code coexist between the phone and tablet platforms and the secret is getRotation().

Any ROM that tries to address this is merely implementing a hack, which could potentially break those apps "coded to spec".

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x4-FAo:
I have a Trinity Max kernel and I can't update to 2.3.3

I need to revert to 2.3.2 stock kernel but since I'm newbie I don't know how

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaimyn:
You can either directly flash a 2.3.3 rom (look in the development section, I'm too lazy to look it up, sorry) or you can restore a nandroid of the system before you flashed the new kernel (you did backup your system right??).

lastly, you can look in the dev section for a completely stock nandroid (again, too lazy to find it for you).

Hope that helps.

I just received my focus on Sunday and I absolutely love this phone... Just have 2 quick questions... How can search in the marketplace to check if my apps needs to be updated... And also how can I repeat a song or album in my Zune music player app..
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mKTank:
The phone automatically searches for app updates. When an update is available, it shows a number on the Marketplace tile.

As for repeat, shuffle, etc., just tap on the album artwork.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutionqy7:
thats not always the case. Sometimes it takes ages for the phone to find an update available for the app. I think this was fixed in NoDo
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
it also takes time for the apps and updates to roll across to all regions (or servers that look after that region).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutionqy7:
Not that i know. I remember when Boards Express rolled out an update. And i made a big deal like an idiot that there was no update available.

Marketplace didnt notify me. Didnt even recognise i had it purchased. But when i went and press buy again it recognized i had it installed and then offered an update.

It annoyss me a small bit right now that i dont really know when theres an update available. Works for some apps and doesnt for some. Wait till update for Omnia comes out now :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Take a look what apks are on sd-ext (using root explorer or ADB) and move everything Sense related (like launcher, rosie etc.) to the the system partition (If you are S-off then you can use Root explorer, if not, then ADB).

[Nook Color General] politiclaw:
Hey folks,

I just flashed over the latest phiremod and I'm having a couple of small issues. 1: Whenever I go into settings > about phone and hit "status," it force closes on me before I can even see any info (like batt. status, level etc). Anyone experience anything similar and if so, found any workaround?

2: I downloaded and installed the newest version of Google Voice from the market but can't set it up. During set up, after I provide the number associated with it the next step attempts to set up voicemail (and obviously can't) so I just press the option to "skip" it, but whenever I do so the set up screen and the buttons go grey and just stay that way. Anyone know of any workarounds?

Thanks for any help!
[Nook Color General] politiclaw:
Hope it's alright to bump this. Again, if anyone has any idea on a fix, I'd really appreciate it. (Of course, if I missed a thread or two about these same issues, feel free to throw in a link.)

[General Questions and Answers] jamezz23:
I understand that some forums don't support cracked or free apps. I have read a few threads and I'm not sure if this one does or not.... What site do you use for third party apps? Currently all I know about is 4shared, and a lot of the search results have nothing to do with android. So I'm wondering if you know any other sites that work well, or maybe even better. Once again if you don't support this, I'm sorry and it will be the last time I'd post anything along these lines.

Obviously xda does not support illegally cracked apps, meaning offering paid apps for free. You are however free to share free applications ;-).

Telling you where to find sites with cracked apps would also not be allowed on xda.

[Blade General] flat_steve:
Uh, there are several 2.2 ROM's, all are custom. The current most popular 2.2 is the FLB froyo G2 r10b version which is pretty much 100% stable.

Edited to add: That's what I've been running on mine and it's absolutely flawless, haven't even encountered any of the problems usually associated with the SF (wifi issues etc.)

[General Questions and Answers] k1darkknight:
I've had errors with T-Mo "Instant Messaging" app (in the official WM 6.5 rom) for the Touch Pro 2, for a few days, but now it refuses to even load at all. It just pops up an error message, giving me the option to send or not send a report to Microsoft, then exits back to HTC's UI.

Has anyone successfully made a cab to just reinstall this "Instant Messaging" app, in the hopes that reinstalling it will remove whatever issue is causing this error? I've tried a couple of third party IM apps, and don't care for them. I just want the app from the official WM 6.5 rom. Alternately, I DO have a file-by-file copy on my PC...does anyone know if just copying some particular file(s) over the copies on the phone itself should fix the issue?

I like the app's functionality, and I've gotten used to its particular menus and such. I just want to be able to reinstall it, without having to reinstall the whole rom and do a hard reset. Someone PLEASE help me!

[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Goodmorning,

So to answer your question regarding this particular ROM, I believe JS7 is the latest 2.2.1 that was released in the i9000 forums. Most of the current 2.2.1 builds are based off JS5. Since there is no changelog between the two there is no way for me or anyone to pin point exact changes/improvements. Most however always like to know they have the "latest and greatest" firmware there is to offer. This also provides a great base for ROM chefs to build off of with some of the leg work already removed from the equation.

Thanks for posting Demiurgic and welcome to the team.

EDIT: As for screenshots, it should look like STOCK 2.2.1 froyo from i9000.

[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
33, No.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
As far as, is it a theme:

No, this is a stock choice of rom. Since the releases are coming out now from XWJS5, XWJS7, ZSJPG and BOJS5 - there are only small noticeable changes BUT the underlying changes are enormous. The services.jar for each of these has to be made separately which means that the settings.apk, android policy, framework etc.. all also have to be modded to match the new services.jar to add lock screens and power options.

Reasoning behind multiple EDT releases:

EDT works as a loose consortium of devs. We all work on our own projects while we collaborate on fixes and share knowledge, deodexed files, ports etc.

Is having a large choice of ROMs a good thing?

Yes.

[G Tablet General] iRobert:
folks,

I got a question, does the G-Tablet have an input for SIM cards, cause the Olipad does.
[G Tablet General] nrage23:
Where the sim card slot would be is covered on the Gtab.
[G Tablet General] iRobert:
OK ... so does anyone want to help make something good from this thing :-)?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
You might be the future modder for this device. :)

It looks like a GTAB, but it could have some differences on the inside. Given that recovery doesn't work and that it has a SIM slot, it probably is.

Suggestion: If you can get a boot.img out of the device, you could alter clockworkmod to at least boot. I had to do this for TNT Lite 5.00, as the kernel / bootloader are different. But, without a boot.img, you're probaby OOL.

Is there a firmware update file floating around for this thing?

When Olipad come back from service, I have a lot of question for you.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] gfacer:
I found this idea when trying to install heimdall in ubuntu - where nothing worked there either. Someone had one of the usual issues (can't connect to the computer) but then he cleaned the connection! I personally was trying all day on 4 machines and trouble shooting in between before I found this. It just all clicked - like the fact that at the beginning I could see it on the computer, now it sometime recognized as a unknown item but not always etc.

So if you found this you've like found all the usual stuff already: install/reinstall kies or the drivers, try different USB ports etc.

Well add to the list: clean the usb port on the phone with alcohol and the cable and the computer too. I did that and bang, like 8 proper drivers installed!!! probable because I had installed and reinstalled so many many many times. this was literally days of my life and hours of my sleep (including now to share but XDA is worth it).

Now the fellow in question apparently would use it as a boombox in the bathroom while having a shower (not sure how that worked) but in my case it was only 3 months old and never really wet or abused. But it still worked awesome!!!!

I can't believe I can use Odin finally! Good thing too because I have an i9000m with the dreaded SD card of death (which just came back from its 1st repair - hence the need to root it which with 2.2 is much more painful than 2.1 was.

Please thank me if it helped!

Oh and one other note. It would not just see in when going straight from cleaning to download mode. I had to do it regularly with the power on first and then I pulled the battery and went into download mode.

ahhhh I can finally get some bleeding work done - except for looking at custom roms now....

Oh - and I guess I should have backed up the existing firmware but I'll try and get that from someone...

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperMatrix:
Really curious about this. Looking at the registry settings below. If this is all that's required for a device to be converted to an unlocked developer device, would it be possible to bypass Chevron completely and just manually edit the registry? And if so...would this not mean that the same method could be applied even when the new wp7 update comes out? I realize that not all handsets allow full registry editing prior to being unlocked and modified, but for those that do allow it, might this be an option?

-Allow max number of unsignd apps

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg\Install]

"MaxUnsignedApp"=dword:7fffffff

-Prevent Relock for ChevronWP7 unlocked device

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]

"PortalUrlProd"=""

"PortalUrlInt"=""

-Developer Unlock the device(this is what chevron apply)

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\LVMod]

"DeveloperUnlockState"=dword:1

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperMatrix:
uhm i've only looked into lg handsets, myself. they all come with registry editing through the manufacturer configuration menu which allows full registry access. you'd have to look at your specific phone to see if it gives registry editing options in a similar method.

im pretty sure it should work.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aclegg2011:
the HTC HD7 as far as I know doesnt have a mfg built in reg editor. My phone is unlocked at the moment, but I'm sure that the NODO update will overwrite my reg file and revert it back to locked mode. And that being said the reg editor probably wont work. Argh.. sucks, but Im sure there's a way to work around all this. I mean, its windows, the most hacked os in existence! :p
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperMatrix:
I'm almost tempted to do a full reset on my phone again and try to change the registry settings on their own without using Chevron to see if it will be unlocked or not. Because of it works, then those with MFG apps will be able to set dev mode regardless of any software update. And through that there may be methods that can be used to do something similar on other phones.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] __ow:
It might work for LG owners, yes. However, few knows yet what the fix in NoDo entails. I guess we're just gonna have to wait and see. And hope that the MS-Chevron interim homebrew solution will be a reality and not lag too much.

By the way, this alone seemingly doesn't result in a fully developer unlocked state. Debugging on the phone with Visual Studio is resisting, for example. Devtool app deployer works though.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madril:
Works on LG indeed.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kapanak:
This has been discussed weeks ago, both here and in the LG Optimus 7 dev board. Yes, this is possible through the built-in registry editor, and no Chevron or certificate by email is needed. The registry editor is a little spartan, but works flawlessly, and can change just about any key or entry.

The only other device I know, or I think I know that has a registry editor is Dell Venue Pro...right? If so, someone should give this a try on their DVP...

No point because you're temp rooted, after a reboot.. they come back.
[G2 and Desire Z General] thunder9111:
true. found that out the hard way.

sucks, even the wpa_supplicant that i editted will go back to the original which means i will lose adhoc again.

now everytime i want to use adhoc i will have to temp-root, then use root explorer to edit the wpa_supplicant.

since i used visionary to temproot and it has the permroot option, would doing so allow me to save all my file settings after root explorer?

would the permroot still be revertable using the unroot option?

all this for ad-hoc internet :mad:
[G2 and Desire Z General] KCRic:
If you're going to 'perm-root' then don't use visionary. Use the Gfree method, it's the most current and safest. I don't have the link to the G2 wiki right now but Google should find it for you. Rooting with Gfree is at the bottom section of the wiki.

Oh thats there was a way to disable them though so they wouldn't show up or even get ran. If memory serves you would go into terminal emulator, cd to the system/app directory, and then you would pm disable the apks that you didnt want
[G2 and Desire Z General] KCRic:
No. It's been a while since I've even thought about NAND locks and stuff but basically the system is protected from permanent changes unless the proper key is used. When you reboot your phone the system is compared to an image of it stored on the NAND and any changes are overwritten - sort of like a system restore on windows except it's automatic at every boot. That's how I understand it working from my memory.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tan-ce:
So do I correctly assume that s-off removes the locks?

Edit: Never mind the question, some searching paid off. Answer is yes.
