[Touch HD Accessories] Chef_Tony:
ok, resolved.

i bought that hebron keyboard and here is my report to help others decide:

the keyboard has a US-english layout and comes with an internal rechargeble (not replaceable) battery with 950mAh, which, according to the retailers is enough for 30 days of casual from-time-to-time typing. it has a micro-usb connector for charging, comes with a usb charging cable. it came pre-charged and after another 30 min. of charging it was full. pairing was relatively easy, just turn it on in visible mode, on the device look for bluetooth devices, pair it using the code 0000 on the device and the keyboard and they are paired up. all further connections are automatic, when your device has bluetooth switched on, just switch on the keyboard and it immediately works.

since the rubber keys need to be pressed rather deeply, while typing sms, emails or word documents it might be slightly slower than the onscreen keyboard, but buttons are bigger and it is way more convenient for longer texts.

and here is the great thing: the keyboard is able to have several key presses at the same time, so even emulators like fpsece or morphgear work fine with 3 keys at a time.

i realize many people on this board are moping about the blackstone's poor gaming compatibility due to the lack of hardware buttons and/or multitouch, but with a keyboard you can finally play a lot of games rather well.
[Touch HD Accessories] kristijan72:
thanks for the info...

can u use the keybord with your PC aswell????

if u can , what is the range ( how far can u be from your pc to use it)??

thanks, kris
[Touch HD Accessories] Chef_Tony:
i haven't tried it yet. but the keyboard uses standard bluetooth hid drivers and therefor works on any device to support that standard, i.e. any windows mobile device, android, iphone, ipad, ipod touch, pc and ps3. it comes with a driver cd for pc (which wouldn't be needed on windows 7). as far as the range aspect goes, since i only used it with my blackstone so far, so it would be impractical to use it at a greater distance than 2 or 3' (because you wouldn't be able to see the display ;) ). but usually, the range also depends on the bluetooth receiver of the pc, but i guess any sensible distance of up to 20 or 25' could be covered.

if you are seriously interested in the device, you can order it from your local amazon site and make use of their great return policy, if you are unsatisfied. just stay away from the really cheap chinese knock-offs, they have poor production quality and tend to break really fast, especially the usb charging port, which then renders the device useless.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yazayad:
Hi guys,

been searching and reading through the forums for quite some time, and I've heard different reports about which system apps are safe to remove (or freeze with Titanium, like I prefer to do). From what I understand, you will get error messages if you remoce HTC Twitter for example. What other cross-program dependencies are there? Anyone have a list over system apps that are safe to remove?

Thanks

Edit: running ARHD 3.2 (with sense) on buzz 1.3.8 BTW
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yazayad:
Bumping to see if anyone has any info.

Has anyone noticed that removing a certain widget or htc apk makes the phone or other apps unstable?

For example, from what I understand, removing gtalk disables gmail. Any other examples? I'd really appreciate if someone were able to point me in the right direction. In the mean time I will nandroid my ROM and start experimenting.

One thing though: I know that the phone does a reboot for every app that you force remove through titanium, but do I need to reboot after freezing each app?

Will report back my findings when I get around to it if there's any interest..

My phone started the day by not booting after a reboot. It stops at rethink possible and the screen will stay on forever and do nothing. If I swipe the fingerprint I get a double vibe like it didn't accept the scan. The only thing I have done to the phone is rooting it.

I did notice one thing this morning. I took it out of the laptop dock and the icon for the dock stayed there even after I then put it in the car dock. I then rebooted it because it had frozen and never came back up. Help!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonlw:
At me too, my atrix was freeze on loading screen "rethink possible". That I wanted to make all before, to reboot it.

And i can't call to motorola support because I live in Russia.

Your advice is sound. Many such bootloops can also be eliminated with a "fastboot -w"

Not really sure what specific changes in /data (some .db setting somewhere prolly) can cause it to barf on boot but it happens a lot, especially when switching builds (froyo->GB, etc)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahflower:
Hello everybody,

I hope some one can help me to unroot my phone.

The problem with my desire is that the volume down button is broke even as the trackpad button and the menu botton. Strange is that, when my phone is working, the worked in any menu but not in the home menu.

Because my phone is rooted i decided to unroot it to send it back to htc. And thats where the BIG problems begin.

i followed the unroot method by the fastboot method. Did worked i see the progress bu after that nothing happens. its stays hanging at the htc logo and after a while it reboot.

the ruu i used is RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed

Now i can go to Fastboot menu with back en power button, but is not possible anymore to go to recovery. If i choice recovery, its boots and stays again on the htc logo for a while and reboots again.

So conclusion, when i push the power button= i see the htc logo and it reboots

in fastboot menu the only choice is bootloader and then fastboot. recovery is not possible ( unroot is succesful?)

what is see is:

Bravo pvt1 ship s-on

hboot- 0.93.0001

microp-031d

touch panel-synw0101

radio-5.11.05.27

Hope some one can help me to bring my desire back to live

Anyway thanks for your time!

Have a nice day so on

[HTC Inspire 4G] Chad_Petree:
What the hell is htc thinking? the videos are recorded in 3gp!! is there a way to record the videos in mp4?

Also the audio quality of the recorded videos is awful, like the phone is under water, it has been said that htc uses the AMR codec when EVERYBODY else uses aac , is there a way to fix this? :confused: a 8 mp camera phone with 720p recording and lastg generatio audio quality, what a bummer! htc should be working on this as we speak!

Check out this video that includes talking and wind noise, the wind noise sounds like a tornado lol

[YOUTUBE]tthw9d-JKbs[/YOUTUBE]
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chad_Petree:
no workaround for this? :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] struff:
I am also bothered by the video camera. It is supposedly HD but most of my videos are choppy and showing up as being in the area of 9, 12, or 14 or so frames per second. Is there any way to adjust some settings that I am missing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chad_Petree:
ive heard the choppy framerate is because of the included sd card, and that class 4 cards dont have this problem :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] 0space_monkey0:
I'm pretty sure it can be cooked up in a rom. all that needs to be done is replacing HTC's camera with googles. Also the HTC camera does record in H264, but uses the 3gp file wrapper.

It can be found here:

EDIT: Now that i think about it, it might be a little harder then just doing that due to framework errors. But hey ill take a look for you. *maybe even take the best out of both*
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
Ours included class 4 cards with the phone. Was this not the norm?
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
It's the HTC camera app. Using AOSP video recording on CM7 with a Class 2 32GB SD, it doesn't skip a beat. It's container is MP4.
[Nook Color General] djklmnop:
Hi all.

After installing Froyo, CM7, phiremod, I ended up reverting back to the autorooter version (eclaire) as it runs nearly everything and fast too.

I found Froyo to be the most reliable and best performance behind the eclair, but the only thing preventing me from actually sticking with it is the Location Service not working.

Does anyone know if location service can be sideloaded or activated? mock location kindsa sucks.

Sent from my HTC Evo
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Universally like our app, no, its not possible without root.

Some manufacturers have used the same general backend for their own screenshot functionality, including samsung. But generally it all depends on the quality of the adb implementation.

We use our own method to read the video buffer, but its a brute force solution (which is why we need root).
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Guys, im about to roll out a big update for SER with nice new features. Please be ready to test it at your leasure!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] cwizardtx:
If you ever release a solution that doesn't require me to tamper with my device and possibly void the warranty let me know. I wish the market filtered root only apps out.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Right... ill be sure to remember this post you made.

In any case - you can unvoid your warranty by unrooting at any time. I would have thought you would know this, having registered in 2009.

Also, there are no non-root screenshot apps.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] BLAQK ROXSTAR:
What's the difference between Screenshot ER and Screenshot ER 2?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] cwizardtx:
I only said possibly, but I was sure there were one or two apps out there at least for other devices that didnr need root. It doesn't break my heart, I use ddms for screenshots :) thank you anyways for your hard work.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
For some reason Google suspended SER, so I've made a new package name and launched it again. There is no difference, apart from some bugfixes since the last version.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kkwus74:

[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
ATM its all up to Google. I will send anyone who has their original order number SER 2.

As you may or may not know, theres almost no direct support for the android market, so i cant say with certainty that they will eveentually restore the original SER.

It was probably one of our competitors flagging our apps. Bastards.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Im sorry we are trying to work out a way of giving you the app and allowing it to update as well. Just hold on, we are not microsoft and this kind of thing isnt as easy as you think.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] alias_neo:
You will most probably have to manually refund the price when they give order numbers and they buy the new one. Google market dev support is non existent. I havnt found an easy way of giving people an updatable copy of the app.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Yep, ive arrived at the following:

use buys both ser and ser 2, sends me the order numbers and then i refund them. This way its guaranteed that most will actually buy ser 2.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bjarnia:
Ok I just bought SER 2 and I'm too lazy to request a $1.50 refund.

I will however ask you for a favor instead :)

Can you make screenshots save in the correct orientation?

If I take a portrait screenshot in my xoom it will save as a horizontal image, and for some reason the gallery app on xoom does not have built in rotation functions so when I want to upload/share a portrait screenshot it ends up being a lot more trouble than it has to be.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Hmmm... i never thought of that. Consider it done!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] gerbick:
Your earlier advice was that we send you our order information.

I did so... over a month ago.

Nothing since.

Hi VillainRom members,

I have mixed up some themes from other phones, resized them, and with result I think!

First of all you have to be running VillainRom13, I don't know if it works with any other roms, if you try, it's your mistake if it goes wrong. If you don't have VillainRom13 yet, you can get it here.

I tested this on a plain VillainRom13!

I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE!

Now I'd like to give some credits to the people of who I used the themes:

- cubanas

- sopL87

- L0cke

And for me a little bit, because I resized the images, and made a pretty good combo I think

Stock Theme:

Add-ons:

Rosie camera remap:

Note: The remaps should work on any VillainRom13, also non-themed ones!

Want to revert to the stock rosie?

Changelog:

15-03-2011: Initial release
​

16-03-2011: New statusbar pull-down background! & Made a camera remap!

[Desire General] danielvago:
Like the title says, I suddenly found out after I couldn't see any songs or albums in Winamp. Then I tried the stock player, same thing.

They're still there, I can see them with ASTRO and when I connect it to my PC.

I can play the songs through ASTRO, but when the player starts up there's no info on the song at all.

I tried PowerAmp (which does a search on the SD card for mp3s) and that works with most of the albums, some are missing cover artwork.

Also my alarm clock can't detect mp3s, same as my running app cardiotrainer. It's the same when I try to put an mp3 as a ringtone.

Firstly the standard HTC Desire ringtones could not be read either, but I got them to show up again, during my attempt to fix this, which I will go through below.

When I try to open up the mp3s through a program (custom ringtone or stock mp3 player) it says "No musicfiles or SD card is available" (translated from my Danish Desire OS).

I can't see my pictures or videos through my camera or gallery apps, but when I take a new picture it shows up as the only one I got.

-----------------------------------------------

What I've tried:

Rebooting lots of times, of course.

Changing the name of my mp3 folder.

Searching for a ".nomedia" file, or similar "." but finding nothing.

Using the app "SDrescan".

I connected the phone to my PC, right click and select properties. Then tools - error checking. Run with automatically fix file system errors checked.

It ran the error check and said there were some errors and it has been fixed. When I run it again it says no errors were detected.

Did a nandroid restore.

---------------------------------------------

Possible causes:

I am rooted, running the newest Leedroid.

Yesterday I did a complete nandroid backup and titanium backup, and copied the whole SD to my computer drive. I also wiped my battery stats.

That's all I did.
[Desire General] z3r0n3:
Do you tried to put some new songs to see if they appear on the music player? Maybe it is just a corrupted database for the older entries.
[Desire General] fireon123:
Maybe the stock android media scanner is broken.. Try a nandroid and a full wipe with a fresh install of your ROM, if it does not fix the problem, restore the nandroid backup..

How much % is free. This can be a problem if it's to little.

[Desire General] danielvago:
I tried to put a brand new mp3 on there, but it can't see that one either. On the other hand, when I take a new picture with the camera, that single new picture is visible.

On the SD card 3,44 GB are free. Internal free is about 71 MB, but I've done the A2SD+.

I've tried to do a nandroid restore, with the nandroid backup I made Tuesday, when it was still working.

I guess there's nothing else to try than to do a complete wipe and install a fresh ROM.

I can't really figure out why it would do this all of a sudden.
