HTC EVO 4G :: Easier To Just Manually Change ROMs?
Jun 28, 2010
I don't want to say that this program is useless. It's just that I haven't found a use for it personally. Apparently, a lot of people out there like it. But why? I know that I am missing something.You can search for roms. I can do that with google.You can reboot into recovery. You can do that buy holding the up-volume button.You can automatically install a rom from the SD card. No you can't. I tried and all the app did was reboot my phone into recovery.You can install a rom using a picture. What? There MUST be a way to install a ROM using ROM Manager without the need to plug into the desktop. Could somebody out there please educate me?

Suppose two phones... eg:- Huawei Ascend Y300 and HTC One X both of which have the SOC Qualcomm S4 play MSM8225.
Now my question is because they have the same SOC's is it easier to port ROMS between the two?

Is there a way to quickly switch between qwerty and phone pad keyboards?For those who know TouchPal, it's just a swipe to switch between the keyboard types/layout.With the Hero, one must select menu and change the keyboard--several actions.Even with Windows Mobile, it only takes two taps.It would even be better if one can set the type of keyboard used based on application or context.

I made two backups of ROMs by manually booting into recovery. Everything went smooth except that I made one on 11-21-10 and it's named as 11-22-10 and the other was made the next day on 11-22-10 and it's named and dated 11-23-10.
The date and time are showing correctly on my phone. This is not a big deal now that I'm aware of it, but was curious if anyone has experienced this and could shed some light on this?

I got tired of the orientation changing when I didn't want it to, such as if I'm in bed or placing it on the kitchen counter. I turned off auto-orienatation, now I want to know if there's a way to change the orientation manually. I would have thought there would be, but I can't find such a feature even after googling it.

I recently began using a2sd (I was running out of space with the stupid games for my 4-year-old, their not for me....I swear) and just had a question about doing a nandroid in case something happened, or I wanted to change roms or something. Is the nandroid process different for me now? If somebody could please enlighten me that would be great.

I rooted and installed Aloysius and I like it a lot! But I want to try the new Sense-Able or Evil Eris (or any stable rom that supports overclocking) - is this difficult to do? Everybody is posting about trying out all sorts of different roms on their phones but I'm having trouble figuring out that part of the process.

When I change ROMs, does this remove the boot animation that I might have changed? I know a wipe is usually involved with a ROM change, but don't know if that will wipe the boot animation. I was going to change one, but will wait until I load a ROM so I don't have to do it twice.

Is there anyway I can change the default dialer that is included in the ROMS? I like the vanilla dialer over the HTC one.

The way I do it is a full backup with my backup pro, wipe the phone completely, wipe the a2sd partition, clear the dalvik etc., load new ROM and then proceed to re install everything from backup but my god what a fudge about. Is it really necessary to wipe everytime? I see people talking about changing ROMs often so do you really go through this every time or am I just being over cautious?

I have had my droid for a couple of days now, and just recently have started to get more into it. Went to the app store and noticed there was an update for a couple of the apps that I had installed. that got me wondering, what if i have a large amount of apps, I would then have to search for them individually in the store to update them! This seems like it would be a total pain. Im I just doing something wrong, like a setting or a menu im not seeing? Or is there an app that can find updates for apps that I have installed? Ive seen app managers but all fail to mention any sort of automatic updates of any kind.

I'm trying to figure out how to parse some XML (for an Android app), and it seems pretty ridiculous how difficult it is to do in Java. It seems like it requires creating an XML handler which has various callbacks (start Element, end Element, and so on), and you have to then take care of changing all this data into objects. Something like this tutorial.All I really need is to change an XML document into a multidimensional array, and even better would be to have some sort of Hpricot processor. Is there any way to do this, or do I really have to write all the extra code in the example above?

Lets say you do a factory reset of your phone and want to put all your apps back on, you have to install each one individually with TB? I was hoping Titanium Backup worked kind of like Nandroid in that it just restored everything on it's own, or at least install the apps on it's own without you having to sit there and click install for each one. BTW I only have the free version.

My developer does math for matching dimensions between the screens I (the designer) give and the layout she makes. There is a formula for it, but she forgets after a project is over and she has to start all over again. Is there anything I can do as a designer to minimize her head banging hours. Is there a certain formula or layout I should design around to make things a bit easier for her.

I notice in the source code they are not used in critical loops, e.g. in View.java :
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;...
I can see this kind of code which would be much easier implemented as an ArrayList :
1867 private void addInArray(View child, int index) { 1868 View[] children = mChildren;
1869 final int count = mChildrenCount;
1870 final int size = children.length;
1871 if (index == count) { 1872 if (size == count) { 1873 mChildren = new View[size + ARRAY_CAPACITY_INCREMENT];
1874 System.arraycopy(children, 0, mChildren, 0, size);
1875 children = mChildren;
1876 } 1877 children[mChildrenCount++] = child;
1878 } else if (index < count) { 1879 if (size == count) { 1880 mChildren = new View[size + ARRAY_CAPACITY_INCREMENT];
1881 System.arraycopy(children, 0, mChildren, 0, index);
1882 System.arraycopy(children, index, mChildren, index + 1, count - index);
1883 children = mChildren; 1884 } else { 1885 System.arraycopy(children, index, children, index + 1, count - index);
1886 } 1887 children[index] = child;
1888 mChildrenCount++;
1889 } else { 1890 throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException("index=" + index + " count=" + count);
1891 } 1892 };

I'm sure a lot of us using the Droid are coming from a BlackBerry. Well here is what I miss: Being able to skip tracks by just holding down the +/- Volume for 2 Seconds. (Instead you have unlock the screen and hope you're still in the app for your media player.) Flip to your next picture with a flick. This was fixed with "Multi-Touch Gallery for Droid" A facebook app that lets you check Live Feed and your Inbox.
^Same thing for MySpace Custom LED color for different Alerts.

I placed an image in each List View Item at the right side,In the layout xml,I set its width and length as 20dip ,kind of small,and I find it is hard to click at it cause the image only occupied 20*20 dip,I hope the length of it doesn't change,while its height full filling the parent,
I tried :android:layout_width="20dip"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
but it doesn't work. Below is my xml:
<Relative Layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/item"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="6dip"
android:background="#FFFFFF">
<Image View android:id="@+id/avatar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin Right="6dip"
android:src="@drawable/default_happy_face"/>

Any way to quickly hit a button to mute the phone when you go to sleep? Don't like my phone ringing when I am sleeping. On my G2 I just hold the power button and the mute option pops up. Or if I power on I can slide it to the right which mutes the phone. Side it left and it powers on. My gf has the HTC Desire Z I cant seem to find it. Only way I found out was to adjust the volume to lowest setting but this takes time there must be an easier way.

hey guys. I'm still pretty new at this rooting stuff.I've been playing around with different roms and fun things like that.Lately I have been using the latest CM.I like it, its cool but seems a bit buggy to me. I've OC'ed to 1ghz, but it still runs rough and a little laggy in between screens.I moved to Android from the iPhone, and I know one thing that would happen with jailbreaking is if you get too many jailbreaks going it can cause bugs.I'm worried now that I've been playing around with lots of roms and making backups and stuff that I may just have too much going on. So I would like to start over.I dont have anything on my phone I'm too worried about.I have Titanium backup to back up apps and whatever else.It would be nice to backup my SMS and MMS, so I am using the trial version of MyBackup.Besides that I'm not too worried about losing anything.
So if I just want to start over with a clean rom install and lose the old rom backups, etc what would be my best bet?I think I'm going to flash BB with 1ghz kernel.Unless there are any other suggestions.Also, is there an easier way to keep my SD card organized? Just looking through it seems very messy.

Is there an easier way to swype a word that has two of the same letters in it other than peck typing? For example, too or toon or root, you get the idea.

I have used RSD Lite before to re-root my phone after applying 2.1 so I am comfortable using it again. I was just wondering if there is an easier way to unroot my phone. I know all of you are saying why unroot? Well I really don't utilize the root at all anymore. I originally did it to change the status bar to black (this is prolly the only thing that I will miss), to be able to downloas Led Hack (I recently uninstalled it and it appears that the leds turn off now in 2.2, I dunno if that was fixed in 2.1), and for wireless and wired tether (pdanet works without rooting and I have never once used the wireless tether other than to they and see if it works. It seems that I have had more problems with rooting then when my phone was unrooted.
Yea my phone is faster now bc of OC but unrooted it wasn't that slow anyway and I don't know if anyone else is having this problem but I get email notifications all the time even when I do not have a new email and it is really bothering me. So after that rant I was just wondering if there was an easier way to unroot. I tried downloading the rom from rom manager verizon 2.0.1 stock without root odexed and it gave me some error when installing. So if I have to use RSD Lite I will I was jsut wondering if there was an easier way. Also since I will not be rooted anymore is there any other program out there that saves data other than TiBu? I take it I will not be able to restore data with TiBu being unrooted. Don't know if this matters with RSD Lite but right now I am on BB 0.4 using chevy 1g kernal with the most updated baseband of .01P

I am trying to figure out how to switch between apps? The expanded manual says to hole the "home" button down from the Home screen. This works to an extent but does not show all apps I have running? For instance I emailed my selt the link to the extended manual from Motorola.
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Support/US-EN/Mobile%20Phones/DROID-by-Motorola/US-EN/Documents/Static-Files/DROID_UG_Verizon_68000202474a.pdf
I click on that link and it downloads the pdf then opens QuickDocs to read it. But if I want to go back to the Home screen for something I can't get back to the Quick Docs app to continue reading from where I left off? I have to go thru the whole process over again and then it tries to download the manual again, so I cancel it and click on the previous one downloaded listed above the download. Then it opens QuickDocs again , but I then have to scroll thru all the pages I read to get to the page I left off at. What gives? It is time consuming and annoying!

I am looking for a way to create a shortcut or perhaps an App that will allow me to pair/connect with devices easier. I hate that I have to go through the following path to do this: Menu/Settings/Wireless & Networks/Bluetooth Settings/Select Device. I would love to be able to add a shortcut on my homescreen that would allow me to pair with a specific device. Or maybe a widget that lists your devices so you can just tap the one to connect with. My car will connect automatically but other devices won't.

I was just wondering if anyone out there knows an easier way to organize the shortcuts for the HTC Hero's Sense UI. Its kinda a PITA to handle it IMO when you want to switch things around.

I type a lot on my Milestone, and I'm really loving the keyboard. Though in Norwegian, we use "�" "�" and "�" a lot and typing in Norwegian isn't that great. Quite a few common words use those letters frequently, and having to longpress A or O and then tap the screen isn't really practical..
Does anyone know if it could be possible to make another solution? Either double tap (aaeeoo) or longpress brings the letters directly.

I accidentally deleted an email I wanted, but couldn't figure out how to "undelete" it. I can see if in the Trash folder, but don't see any menu options to move it back to the Inbox.
I was able to open the message and Forward it to myself, but that seemed overly difficult. Is there any easier way to undo the delete?
