HTC EVO 4G :: ANDROID 2.2 Aka Froyo Features Missing
Aug 10, 2010
i decided to make this thread for all the new people, apparently there is still people sign in up for the forums, and new comers from another OSs(BB, Iphone, WM, etc)So this is some features that you don't see in the Evo of froyo(is not because is not capable but is more like HTC and Sprint wanted that way )Stock Launcher, not 2.2 launcher because we got sense the closest thing you can find to it is LauncherPro(favorite one) or ADW launcher(sorry i couldn't find the link just put it like that in google android market)Gallery, many people keeps asking for this special gallery cause it really is cool made by coloris because they team up with google here is a link (credit goes to dark Neo for finding the link)the power control i have no idea why we didn't get the updated it one but hopefully we do before the end of the year i'm pretty sure we getting another update before the end of the year well those are the most requested ones, besides that camera, calendar, messages, car dock, etc are all different because of sense, Sense UI is more then just a skin for Evo, any question please ask, i know a lot good users in this forums and they always happy to give you the most correct information.

1. Is it me or have they removed the Search feature in the People app in 2.1? I'm in People, then click Menu and the Search feature was right there; has it been moved or removed? 2. I also responded to another post in a different phone forum about the missing Phone "Favorites" sub-feature in 2.1. Anyone know where that is? You can add a contact from your recently called list to your "Favorites" by hard pressing the contact name, but there's no associated Favorites app to go along with it.

What has happened to my Lock Screen. Only yesterday I had to upgrade to 4.3 and my Swipe feature on the home screen was working fine. I don't like the pin option, I know there are reasons for it, security etc, but all the threads I have seen say enable multiple widgets or some such thing on lock screen, well after my upgrade it seems it is very different from what others are seeing in their lock screens.
I have tried scrolling left to right on the lock screen - nothing. I have looked through my widgets - nothing. I have attached a screen shot of what my lock screen looks like after the upgrade and I am not even sure how it went from the swipe option to the pin option because I did not intentionally change it knowing I prefer the swipe option.

I have seen a few firmware versions of FROYO banded around for the Desire on this Forum. Having updated my O2 Desire yesterday and playing around with it, I was curious how the O2 firmware compares with the rest. My software details are as follows: Android version 2.2. Baseband version 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 Kernel version 2.6.32.15-gd96f2c0 htc-kernel@and18-2 #1 Build number 2.14.207.1 CL233777 release-keys Software number 2.14.207.1 Browser version Webkit 3.1. I may be optimistic/delusional but I have discovered some features in the O2 Froyo release from yesterday that were showcased the other day at the HTC Desire HD and HTC Desire Z launch event as being part of the all new HTC Sense.

Recently I updated my Nexus One to Froyo (2.2) and I've noticed some significantly different behavior with SQLite. For example, I had been using a subquery (returning string data) as part of an IN clause, and the subquery portion no longer appears to function correctly. I've attached an example SQL query working with the contacts database below (Direct query shown for illustrative purposes only):
SELECT _id FROM data WHERE display_name IN (SELECT display_name FROM contacts); Up until Android 2.1 this was not a problem. After the update however, this returns an empty record set unless I run the subquery separately, surround each of the resulting values in single quotes and append those values directly into the IN clause. I have noticed this loss of functionality in multiple applications I'm working on, but I should note that it does appear to work when the results would be numeric rather than string based.

Has anyone noticed the option for messaging is missing in the Froyo 3D gallery. All the other sharing options are there accept for messaging. Of course I would rather use the 3D gallery instead of stock. Any suggestions.

I just installed Froyo in Kies. Everything went smoothly and the phone seems to work like a charm after installation. The only thing weird but not bad was that all the applications were in different order. BUT the first bad thing I noticed was that the Android Market application was gone! Is this normal? Can I get it back somehow?

I'm looking for a device that can do everything but without the phone feature (calls, text). I now this may sound weird but I already have a phone that I'm happy with. A few weeks ago, my car was burglarized and I lost my laptop, mp3 player, camera, video camera, gps navigation, gps watch. I'm looking for a device that can do everything that I've lost but won't hold me down with a phone contract.
Something sleek enough to fit in my pocket while I'm running or doing physical activity, crystal clear sound quality(very important), takes excellent pictures and video, GPS navigation for navigation and if possible(but not necessary), could track my movements like a garmin forerunner, check email over WiFi, great battery life. I've never owned a smartphone so I don't know if the features I need of the device works if I have no contract with it.
No iphones please, I don't want to be bogged down with itunes. I'm looking at Garmin-Asus Nuvifone or Droid X or Evo 4G or Nexus One(love the clean design) but I don't know if there are better options for me.

One of the new features mentioned in the 1.5 SDK is "Easier application performance profiling". Can somebody shed some light on what new profiling features are available in the new SDK? Are those enhancements to TraceView, DDMS, or new profiling APIs ?

So I'm looking to get a new bluetooth headset and I like the look and features of the jawbone icon, and I've seen reviews that show that it sends a battery status bar to the iPhone that displays next to the phone battery indicator. Does anyone know if it does this for android too? I've only really seen it advertised as working for the iPhone.

I currently have an app on the market that supports Android 1.5 (SDK level 3) and up. It also takes advantage of several features that are only present in Android 2.0 (SDK level 5) and up. I do this using Reflection.
I read a post on the Android Developer Blog that talks about how to support these new features while using no Reflection, which would be amazing. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/07/how-to-have-your-cupcake-and-eat-it-too.html <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="5" />
I have tested this out and while it works there is one huge downfall. Currently if I try to add a SDK level 5 class, but I don't know that it's a SDK level 5 class, there is no worries. Eclipse isnt going to find the class and I'm not going to be able to add it.
Using Google's recommended method does allow me to add the classes and gives me no notification that this code is targeted just to SDK level 5 users. This opens up too big of a possibility of adding in code that would break some users without knowing.
Does anyone know of any plugins, options, etc that would warn me at the places I have targeted SDK level 5 to keep this from happening?

I'm new to an internet supported smartphone. I primarily used calendar, notes & contacts on my old phone - XV6800.
I don't want to use my GPS device anymore, this is one of the main reasons I upgraded to Droid. I'm a sales rep and often need to drive to areas I'm unfamiliar with.
What is the easiest way to learn how to use the navigation feature on my Droid?

I am experimenting with Androids WebView[1] and its HTML5 features. I have written a little webpage with does the features detection like described here: http://diveintohtml5.org/detect.html
And now I see (I am on a SDK1.6 Emulator) that the LocalStorage, the WebWorkers and Offline Web Applications are not supported!
Does anyone know when these features will be supported? Or does anyone know the exact version (or build) of the webkit engine, that is used in Android 1.6?

I'm trying to use the HTML5 Geolocation features found in Android 2.0. However, it does not work in the browser or a WebView. I've tested in the emulator and on multiple devices. The code I have works in multiple other browsers that support the spec. Has anyone gotten this to work?

(HTC Desire)
I've tried a number of players (built in, tunewiki, btunes, meridian, mixzing etc) and they all have good features but I can't find anything with all the features I want, any recommendations based on features below..?
Proper lock screen integration (like HTC player, not like btunes that sits on top)
Smooth coverflow style flicking of playing tracks (htc not bad, btunes bad)
Decent refresh without turning off phone (I update music via wifi and nothing so far handles refreshes well, even with a task kill)
Reads non standard genres (99% of my genres are custom and aren't read)
Support for png folder art
2x4 or 4x4 widget with folder/embedded art display

I am just waiting for an android phone to come to my country (Sweden). Just wondering something, when you get the phone, what apps are on it? I've used google to find something but without any luck. What are the default apps? Can I send MMS by default? Can I record video with it by default? The two most important extra features for me, doesn't matter if I need to get apps to do it, but kind of curious!

I am very new to android, literally got my Desire HD yesterday. One thing I noticed, in the Google Android keynote speech this year, they seem to demonstrate a very different looking android market website. Control over buying apps and automatically having your phone install them remotely, etc. Is that something that coming soon?

When publishing an update on the Android Market, is there any way to inform users of fixes & new features? I just published my first app and am still getting used to everything about the experience, including being taken aback by the types of comments that some people post. But I am definitely impressed with the error reporting capabilities!
