HTC Desire :: Host Of Minor Niggles
Oct 3, 2010
I am a recent newcomer to Android, and have recently made the switch to the HTC Desire, on the Telstra network in Australia. I love the phone to bits, especially the level of customisability that the Android OS offers me. However, despite all the awesome, the roses have a few thorns, and I was hoping some people more knowledgeable than myself might be able to help me find solutions.I've been accumulating them over time, so there are a few. I have combed through all the settings I could find and have also tried google-ing the problems, and have come up blank. I apologise in advance if these topics have already been covered.

Yesterday at my office I noticed my wireless connection cycling on and off. I have a basic D-link wireless router that networks three computers. I couldn't figure out why I kept losing internet and the network. It would work for a few minutes then not work for a few.
I finally narrowed it down to my EVO. When I have the WIFI set to on in the EVO its messing up my network. Any ideas as to why? This didn't happen until the Froyo update!

I have now managed to update my phone. I hadn't realised at first that I had touse the update service software, rather than going through the phone or PC Companion. Still on Android 1.6, of course, but now have baseband version 1.1.25 and kernel version 2.6.29.
At first glance, the phone doesn't seem to have changed as lot. My contacts and applications are all as they were, as far as i can tell. The only change I have seen is that I can now use a different theme for Timescape from the rest of the phone. I use the normal black background for most things, but I can use light blue, dark blue, orange, green or pink in Timescape now. I don't think I had a choice before.
Has anyone else who has been able to update noticed anythign else...?

I've noticed that when using bluetooth audio in my car with my current setup (see sig), the audio no longer automatically resumes when I re-start my vehicle. When I was unrooted with 2.2, if I turned off the vehicle with audio playing, it would automatically resume when I started the car again later. Any ideas? I'm using MixZing as my player.

I used my Xperia X10 Mini Pro for a few dyas before I got myself a case or a screen protector. Unfortunately I picked up some minor scratches on the screen even though I was very careful! Can anyone suggest a way to remove the scratches? In the past I have used Displex but I not sure this should be used on a touch screen.

I've had a HTC Evo now for 2/3 weeks, and I love it! But over the last few days it's started to act funny....
What it's doing is lets say I unlock the phone and have it laying on my desk, in the past it would show the screen in portrait orientation....but over the lat 2/3 days its been jumping to landscape and I have to pick up the phone, tilt it to get it back to portrait, and if I lay it back down it will go back to landscape.
This is mainly annoying when checking emails/texts/etc, but also if I am on the train and holding it near my waste, depending on the angle it will bounce back and forth from portrait to landscape!
I originally did a reformat when I bought it, and I am going to do it again shortly to see if that helps....just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if it's fixable (and yes i do want auto rotation)....
My phone has a few other problems such as minor light leakage, and a dead pixel (which I was going to look past and keep the phone)...so if this is something wrong with the hardware it would be a pretty good reason to get a replacement within my 30 days....

Has anyone else noticed this? While responding to a SMS (using the physical keyboard), I will hit the "Enter" button on the keypad to send the message. Once it's sent, I will close the slider and hit the Home button (or Back button to get to my conversation list) to get back to the home screen, and either the "Message" icon or "Phone" icon is highlighted (has the default orange background) and you have to touch something on the home screen to make it go away.
I know this isn't anything HUGE, just a minor annoyance that happens to me. I have restarted the phone, but it still does it about 70% of the time. Curious if anyone else has noticed this or if it was just a specific glitch on my phone?

I want to create tabs without extending TabActivity. (The reason is that TabActivity cannot handle a custom titlebar as it seems). I have public class startTab extends Activity I read somewhere that I have to use a LocalActivityManager, I assume that I am missing something there. Anyone an idea?

Well I've already used the USB Host on my Tablets and phones for mouse, controllers, keyboards, Apparently we can also attach USB Hard Drives?
My question is can it also work for USB CD/DVD Drives? I don't have device right now setup with USB Host to try it out.

Where is the best place to host an Open Source project for an Android app? I am thinking about setting my app eTools free into an open source license. I want to know the best place to host that project. I will probably go with code.google.com but wanted to hear what others have done.

I have been using 4smartphone.net and am not pleased with their technical support with Sprint and/or the EVO and their Exchange service. Is anyone pleased with their Exchange Host service and using an Android 2.1 system like the EVO? I have a contact database with 1500 names and some of the notes fields in the contacts are 2000 to 4000 characters long. I want an Exchange Host Service that understands connection to the Sprint EVO and has a technical support phone number that answers questions with solutions and does not just blame the problem on Sprint�s new phones. Unfortunately I only have one phone and would like a monthly or quarterly contact.

It seems strange to me: ext2/3/4 is the native filesystem for the device - but with device as USB host I can't access. It seems only FAT and NTFS is available.
Is there any ways to make this possible?
Background: my Sat-Receiver records to an ext2/3 partition and I would like to transfer this smoothly to my nook.
Currently my solution is to use my laptop, there I need a ext2/3 driver and transfer via MPT. This is not very comfortable and slow.

Right now, I'm using an HTC EVO 4G LTE, running ICS. Now the source code is out, however, no one has yet to add USB host capabilities to their kernel, so I figure I might as well do it myself. I read on kernel development, and I have a surface level understanding, but I'm just interested in adding the USB host capabilities.

how the Nexus Tablet 7 charges? Not through the USB port, right?
I have a Transformer right now w/ the dock & 2 full sized usb ports on it. But I have been waiting for the Nexus Tab for months, because of the screen, processor, and price. however since it does not have a microSD, I would definitely need to be able to plug in my 500GB usb hdd into it. I would need a OTG cable, right? And it does not use the MicroUSB port to charge, right? Otherwise how could you use the usb and charge it at the same time?

I'm writing an app that will host widgets. The app has custom view (which probably is the source of issue).mView.addWidget() basically just remembers this AppWidgetHostView instance and then mView draws it directly onto canvas. Visually everything is fine.I can see the actual widget. But the issue is with reacting on UI events. Please advise what needs to be done in the parent view in order to correctly trigger handlers in the widgets like onClick().I used standard widgets which normally react on click events. None worked.I also created my own test widget with listener and onClick()is successfully triggered if the widget is added on Homescreen, but doesn't work in my app.mView correctly detects click event and I tried to call widget.perform Click there, which returns false meaning onClickListener is not registered in the widget. But according to source .would call updateAppWidget which would register its onClick listener.

I am trying to figure out if there is any way by which I can access any USB device which is connected to my Android phone's USB port and read data off it? For ex. Can I connect a camera to my phone and pull pictures out of it? I know that we need a HOST-DEVICE configuration to be able to do that... have tried doing this on other devices before picking up my android phone.. thought there would be an easier way to get this done. now, when I connect my phone to a digital picture frame, I can see on the phone that it identifies the USB device it is connected to and goes into a USB mass storage mode. What I want to know is if after this, I can read data from the frame or send data to it. I want to write an app that pulls data over USB and stores it into the phone memory.

I send files to FTP server in my application. Internet permission is set :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
It works quite fine when connected with 3G/3G+. Sometimes, not very often, I get a "SocketException no route to host" or "unknown host" exception when trying to connect. When I'm connected with WIFI, it works sometimes and it's very fast, but the same error occurs very often, and when it has occurred I must restart my WiFi to be able to connect again, even with webbrowser. I use apache commons FTPClient this way:
ftpClient.connect(server, 21); ftpClient.login(user, password);
ftpClient.changeWorkingDirectory(directory); ftpClient.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);
BufferedInputStream buffIn = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
ftpClient.enterLocalPassiveMode(); ftpClient.storeFile(file.getName(), buffIn); buffIn.close();
ftpClient.logout(); ftpClient.disconnect();
Errors look like this:
06-12 11:17:32.887: ERROR/DictoSyl(3146): No route to host 06-12 11:17:32.887:

It looks like having forgot something that makes connection down after several uses of my ftp program, but what? And why does this work quite well (but not always) with 3G/EDGE connection?
