Sadly the designer deleted my wallpaper in the last update and in this one he deleted my ring tone and notification tones. How can I back up these choices and add them to the newest version of the ROM? The new version is much quicker and I want to use it but only with those tones.

I'm animating one of the children of my custom View Group with a Translate Animation. The problem is that the View that I'm animating leaves traces, so it's like the entire screen isn't redrawn during the animation. What could be the problem?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen typing in an AutoCompleteTextView, when the list shrinks because the number of matches goes down, the DropDown leaves several "ghost" elements on the screen. This only seems to happen when an IME is visible, and visually, it appears to be limited to the area that shows the autocomplete suggestions for the input method, so quite possibly it's happening in what is part of the IME's layout. This occurs in 2.0.1, 2.1 and 2.2 emulators, and most likely on devices as well (confirmed at least on Milestone running 2.1- upgrade1). It _does not_ seem to happen in an 1.6 emulator.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI followed all the instructions on updating to Android 2.1 and I did not have any error messages in the process. When I boot my X10, I am still at Android 1.6. Worse yet, the backup/restore application does not restore everything. I have to reconfigure my main screens and the worse of it is my Touchdown client needs to be reconfigured for exchange sync and I have to reconfigure it and re-download everything again. How can I diagnose why my android doesn't update? I am using Windows 7 x64. The process looked like it was working, but I see the following in the driverinstaller_install_usbflashdriver.log file:

My application uses a list of media files on the phone, i.e. images, audio and video. It also allows the user to filter the list via some checkboxes in a menu, so the user can choose to show or hide each type of files. The way I've been doing this is by putting this in the adapter's getView():
// don't show unwanted file types if (cmo.hasType(MediaType.AUDIO_FILE)){
if(!prefs.getBoolean(PREFS_SHOWAUDIO, true)){ return new ViewStub(mContext);;
} }else if(cmo.hasType(MediaType.IMAGE_FILE)){ if(!prefs.getBoolean(PREFS_SHOWIMG, true)){
return new ViewStub(mContext);;
} }else if( cmo.hasType(MediaType.VIDEO_FILE)){ if(!prefs.getBoolean(PREFS_SHOWVIDEO, true)){ return new ViewStub(mContext);; } }
Which is quite effective in the sense that the list doesn't show those elements. However, the ListView still renders a 1px grey line between each View, even if they are ViewStubs, meaning I see a thick gray line whenever a group of consecutive items are filtered away. How can I get rid of those lines? Should I create a new data array, containing only the elements that should show a view?
Is android like windows etc where uninstalling an app leaves registry settings/ databases, etc that can at some point bog me down? If so how do i go about removing this extraneous data?

I deleted 5 or 6 photos from my gallery. Now when I scroll through my gallery where the photos were, is just a blank space. I deleted the pics thinking it would automatically compress the gallery together, not leave me with the blanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedJust got the new Droid X. Coming from a windows mobile phone (which I hated) I have a question on the android OS. It seems that when you are done with an app you just have to hit the menu button again.. but this leaves it in memory running.. is there anyway to close the and and just leave it? I did download the Advanced app killer but that seems silly to have to pick from a list of what you want closed.. I see no way to just close the app you are in.. it should be a default option for every app.. I hope I am just not finding it.. and it is there somewhere..
View 7 Replies View RelatedAs you may all know Desire has nearly 150mb internal memory for applications so I'm doing my best to use it wisely,
My problem occured when I start to install and uninstall many applications just for testing. I've seen that every installed and uninstalled application leaves some files that fills up this 150mb.
At my phone I had, CoPilot live + Several games + Google Earth. Now I've none and but when I try to install CoPilot or Google Earth I'm facing the fact that there is no space left.
I think applications might be leaving installer file behind when applications installed through HTC Sync, this might be the only logical reason.

View 25 Replies View RelatedI've been largely pleased with the Droid after about 12 years using Palm devices. The exception is the inability to easily, quickly import the 550+ Memos I've authored over the years. Plenty of apps will import one huge memo, but none will import a csv file of ALL the memos. This includes OI Note. Does anyone have any experience successfully importing such a large number of memos without having to extensively edit? Or ideally, edit at all?

1. Time: The time tab has a full calendar, time and date
2. World Clock: With at least 2 cities
3. Alarms: 4 configurable alarms that can be set to repeat on a day or days selected. (Great to remind me to watch certain shows).
4. Count-down timer.
I hope someone can point me to an app that has all these features or hopefully a developer can develop a similar app for Android.Click the link to view the big clock app from palm (Warning) it's a very old app and shows it's age: bigclock
I am about to begin a nursing program in January nd they require us to purchase a Palm T/X PDA ($299) so we can run certain nursing apps such as a note card software, refrence material etc.Now i was wondering, why would i buy a $300 PDA when i can get a G1 for about $200, that's a phone as well nd has a full QWERTY key-board + camera, and... has a 528 MHz processor vs the 312 MHz runnin the Palm T/X (Palm OS Garnet, 5.4.9) So my question is could i run the Palm OS based softwares on a G1 if i get it?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm transitioning my PIM's from my Palm TX to a shiny, new Evo. Big jump I know. My major concern was how to manage the hundreds of memos I had accumulated over the years. I loved the simplicity of the Palm desktop, offline access, and easy syncing but was having trouble finding a good alternative on android even after reading through many forums. I stumbled onto B-folders which seems to work great as a Palm desktop memo replacement.B-folders has a desktop component that is similar to the Palm desktop in its simplicity and ease of use. It's actually cleaner than the example they have on their website. The B-folders app is also nice and clean. Porting hundreds of memos in multiple different categories was actually very easy. Here's how I did it:
1)On the Palm desktop within a category, select all memos.
2)Export as a csv file. When it asks to specify export fields, only check "Memo".
3)On the B-folders desktop, import as a generic csv file.
4)A new folder called "Imported Data" will be created. Right click on it to edit the name.
5)Repeat for all your memo categories.
6)Sync with your app and you're done! You'll have all your memos on your desktop and phone and can sync them anytime. I used wifi to sync.
There is a 30 day trial after which it costs $30. I'm not one to usually pay for apps but this one might be worth it. Hopefully this helps all those die-hard PalmOS users left out there!
This is more hypothetical than anything, but I was thinking that if I ever want to travel to Europe, I could bring my Palm Treo with me and buy a SIM card there, since my Verizon Moto Droid wouldn't work there.
So how could I get my calendar and contacts from my Droid and into my Palm?
I've used Palm phones for the last 10 years and I'm making the switch to Android soon. The Palm program I use the most (and rely on daily) is DateBk (by Pimlico). I've used DateBk for the last 4 years and love it.
One big reason I'm moving to an Android phone is to push all I can into the "Cloud." That way I can have everywhere access to my information and schedule and it's automatically backed up. So I really don't want to buy DateBk (even if it comes to Android) because it's not really a "Cloud" friendly program.
Is Google Calendar coupled with the free "Remember the Milk" app (or maybe it's $10 for Android users) a good replacement for DateBk?
I added Note Everything, Lite version, and tried to import memoes from my Palm TX. I created a file "full memo.mpa" on my SD card. When I open the Palm Memo import option in Note Everything it finds the file but then tries parsing the file as an Outlook Import. It never completes just continually says Parsing file... I do note that if I use Astro to read my SD card it shows the file association the be "Music" i.e. a music icon?? If I tap the file the Music App opens?
