Installed 5.0.2H Now After Boot all Text is a Box - G1 Android Development

Hey guys,
I rooted my T-Mobile G1 through the instructions on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480 and then I downloaded the latest build http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/5.0.2H-signed.zip and everything has gone fine.
After reboot I went through the setup phase and all the text is fine, it was cool because the soft keyboard came up in the example and I logged into my account.
Now, I have hit the home screen of my g-1 and the three icons I see are the Contacts, Calendar, and Mail but the text under them where the label should be is little boxes. I cant figure out how to make the symbol for them but just realize [] as them.
No matter what I do, through the menu or anything all the text is in that box [] does anyone know how to fix this? Or what is wrong? Everything else seems to be working fine except that.

WOW
You guys are fast, from the time it took me to log in, there were all these responses.
Why do people so openly refuse to read fully, before asking questions with answers to them? This particular answer has pictures, just in case you were too lazy to read.

Speaks for itself I think. I told them about all you geniuses here and invited them to check out the site. Hopefully something incredible will come of this...
i saw this a few days ago and it looks like it's going to be very interesting. i'm going to try it out because i hate having to use a stylus
Alot of what they are trying to accomplish has been done already via WAD and Mortscript.
Do not get your hopes up.
- You can not register in the forums since no activation mails are being sent out.
- If you report this to the only e-mail address I have found on the page you will get no reply.
- If you try to get in contact with the persons behind the project and the homepage you will get no reply
- No one is answering the comments made on the page
- No betaversions has been published as far as I understand it, only screenshots
This does not mean that I think that the whole thing is a scam or anything like that - just that for a project that is actively seeking betatesters they for sure are making it hard (impossible) for people to actually getting involved. Not to mention the fact how they handle bugreports for their own homepage.
I had no problems registering in the forums there, and the creators answered some technical questions yesterday. This project is very young, looks like it was only started this month. Give it some time, and if they decide to check this site out, I hope it can lead to a good thing and not have them be put off by scorn and doubt.
i had no problems registering either; i do not beleive it is a scam, they did not say they are going to charge people for the software/application.
Congrats! Inform the ones running the show then that many visitors have not been able to register since they do not reply to any e-mail or provide with any information as on why things are not working. And no, this is not just me - check the comments - there are a large number of people not being able to register.
And in my book - any project that does not respond to bugreports is in trouble.
Very awesome! I can't wait until its final release, thanks for sharing!

WM6 - how to get the pretty top-level screen?

I keep seeing you guys with the big digital clock on the home page....
Ok, ok, what am I missing? I grabbed one of the WM6 ROMs here, flashed it, it works fine, got my apps reloaded, all is good - but I can't figure out how to get the top level page to look any different than what I had for WM5!
I must be missing something stupid...... a quick pointer please?

Your rom probably wasnt cooked with that application. It is called HTC HOME and you can download it as freeware, just search the forums for it. But first if you haven't already done it, go to settings, today, and items and check if htc home is listed, if it is then just check it and apply the settings.

Alphabet in music library

Hello,
I'm wondering if this would be possible..
In the people tab you have this nice alphabet at the side of the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Why is there not such a search think in the music tab / library?
If someone can make this for me / us.. I will donate
Now when i want a song that start with the Z in need to scroll all the way down.. and that takes too long
I also send HTC a email about this
Nobody?
Yeah i agree, this would be very useful. Going through the tracklist at the moment is a pain.
Anyone have any ideas ?
I have a response from HTC in Dutch
They said it would maybe get solved in WM6.5
And the guy said he has send the request to the developers of HTC.
I send him a email back with the message WM6.5 won't solve it because it's a problem in TF3D.
And now i'm waiting for a response back
ill also donate a little bit. if it works.

Nice
Too bad i don't know how this stuff works.. so i can't give it a try
But if there are any developers who would like to help us.. We will donate
I would also like to see this implemented!
i have lots of MP3 on my Topaz, in TF3D it takes about 10-15 seconds until it shows up (I guess because of the album pictures).
If I want to browse through the tracks it takes a lot of time to get to the Letter where I want to go.
This would be great!
I'm having the problem too that it's shows up really late..
And i asked HTC if they could make a .cab file for it..
They only sad they had send it again to the developers
So probably no cab file but maybe in the new manila versions
I hope they can do it
EDIT: I've send a email back and waiting for a response at the moment
This feature would be awesome. It should be standard in every list in TF3D.
New response from HTC...
They don't know sure it there is coming a cab file or it will be build in the new roms...
They only know that the guy has send a request to the developers..
So maybe a developer here can make a cab file for us?

Dialer Applications

Hey Everyone,
Just wondering what everyone is using as there Dialer??
The Stock one is quite sad considering that you have to click like a few times to call someone...
Is there a application out there that displays all your contacts and you just have to press once on the name to dial?? ( Not like MeContacts that only displays so many for speed dialing)
I was looking at Dialer one but can't seem to download it...seems discontinued or something...
Please give your preference and if you can, why you chose it.
Thank you all for your input.
Chad
check out superdial
There is 2 in the market place at the moment,
1 that is a paid version but says it's for chinese users but we can use it still and the 2nd one has bugs in it and isn't being continued?

me too looking for something like this , checked superdial, not so impressive though.
Check out Youlu. A number of Android sites have recommended it. I just installed it, and though it could use more options (such as disabling dial-sounds, and hiding of email-only contacts), it looks nice.
wow this is actually better than atakephone, i kinda regret paying for it now!
I always had hard time searching contacts to dial.
I used modified acontacts on my donuts. But im now using Dialer One.
It have call log, dialer. contacts at once. easy to use. and its Free
Try it

Going to try Youlu and Dialer one out right now and see which one I like better!
Another vote for Superdial. I've been using it for a few months now, can't live without it. It's definitely one of the best dialers out there.
My main concern is having quick and easy access to contacts without having to click through 17 menus to get to them. I simply start spelling the name of the contact and it appears, tap their name and it's calling. Takes a mere 2 seconds before I'm calling the person I want.
