Auto-rotate in all four directions? - G1 Android Development

In this video, at time about 3:45, there are auto-rotation in four directions. Not only two. It's only on that samsung or it's possible on G1 too?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Pv04Tw6wvQ

I think it was back in 4.5 of Haykuro build that had auto rotate 3 ways (excluding only upside down). I loved it and miss it. The only thing keeping me from running the rooted ADP1.5 now is lack of home screen auto rotate. I use my phone in landscape mode all the time (in my car, on my desk as my case has a built in stand) and cant be bothered with trying to read everything sideways while driving. Still waiting.... (maybe someone has a fix? - havent seen it yet though)
MANY thanks to JF, Haykuro, and all the others who work so hard to give us more of what we love!
I love my G1!

this is a good idea.. just to have it there thats all

maublg:
... 1.5 DO have auto-rotate, you just need to enable it (Settings->Sounds and Display->Orientation).
DeToX-cz:
It is possible to get 4-way rotation, but you probably need to write/enable it in a new build...

Auto-rotate: Yes
Auto-rotate on home screen: No
What he is saying is that it doesn't have auto-rotate on the home screen. I agree it is annoying that home is the only thing we don't have auto-rotate on. I also agree 4 way auto-rotate would be awesome.
P.S. Did anyone notice how much smoother the fancy rotate animation was on the i7500?

joushou...
Thanks for the reply.
Every 1.5 version I have downloaded has auto rotate. I am aware of this. It does not however auto rotate the "Home" screen. This is the screen I specifically mentioned earlier. If you are able to make this work, PLEASE let me know what steps to take / .apk to install. I feel I have explored every setting in 1.5 as well as flashing all 'flavors' available (JF, Haykuro, Twisted, etc...) The only versions I have found that support the "Home" screen rotate are 4.1 and 4.5 from Haykuro and of course JF RC33 (currently running). Thanks for the reply. BTW, I make a point of reading and testing and reading again before asking questions.
DeToX-cz...
Haykuro's done it before so it should be possible again. It's really nice feature for it to rotate all the way round.

Yeah, should be. Will try to find it out

hmm? no auto rotate????

I have the same thing. The home screen auto rotates for me because I use DxTop. (See the two tabs.) In fact, all the 3rd party home screen replacement apps will auto rotate on these builds. It's the default home that doesn't auto rotate. Since cupcake doesn't explicitly prevent the auto rotation of a app just because it's recognized as a home app, this makes me believe that the key to allowing the default home app to auto rotate is in the source code of the home app itself. (I believe it's launcher.apk but I could be wrong.) Any Android Java savoy devs willing to take a crack at this. I know there are commands that override the orientation settings in the AndroidManifest.xml file. It's probably just a matter of deleting one line of code from that file and recompiling.

I was right! I just got this straight from the android source tree in the source of launcher.apk:
Code:

69 android:name="Launcher"
70 android:launchMode="singleTask"
71 android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true"
72 android:stateNotNeeded="true"
73 android:theme="@style/Theme"

79 <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
80 <category android:name="android.intent.category.MONKEY" />
81 </intent-filter>

All you need to do is delete line 74 android:screenOrientation="nosensor" and recompile it. Somebody do this!!!

The main reason is I never downloaded source from the android git tree before and I only know the bare minimum about compiling for android. I made a coupple of "Hello World" apps and along the way I heard that orientation settings ar in the AndroidManifest.xml file. I've never even turned my code into an apk before.

I have auto-rotate on my home screen with JF ADP1.5, no alternative home app.

Where did you get that? I have JF ADP1.5 too and no auto-rotate on Home Screen.

Hmm, I'm compiling cupcake again right now. I'll try that out in a bit.

Nope, doesn't work.
When you slide out the screen, and back in, it will be stuck in landscape mode at all times.

Turned it off in dxtop and it still auto rotates on JF 1.5
gonna launch the reg home to see if that makes a diff
EDIT: launched the default... NO auto rotate
so lesson for today... get a home app! DxTop is the shizzle

That's not what i'm trying to find out. I want to make Auto-rotating to all 4 directions.

Personally, I like it to only rotate in the 2 directions. Sometimes I'm reading my phone lying down in bed or on a couch and I want to hold my phone upside down so i can read it. If you don't get what I'm saying lay on your side and try to read the G1 imagining it could rotate in 4 directions.

So after 16 posts of off-topicness....is it possible for the G1 to rotate by turning it 90 degrees right? Or upside down?
maubig, said the haykuro build 4.5 rotated 3 ways. Can anyone confirm this?

WM 6.5 ROM Takedowns, Whats up?

Hey Guys,
Did you noticed? Some WM 6.5 ROMs were taken down from XDA on request from Microsoft. I think the idea is somewhat like this : WM 6.1 ROMs were allowed as the upgrade from WM 6 to 6.1 is free, its only the operator's/Manufacturer's lazyness to not provide an update. But 6.5 wont be free upgrade, it is being considered a major release. If that is true, as it is being shown by recent takedowns, i think its no use to put time and efforts on WM 6.5 before there are devices out with it atleast, or maybe even not after that also.
What do you guys think?
Too bad,here are the snapshots of WM 6.5,looks awesome,will it be kinda sluggish on GENE?

Also for the people running the WM6.5 BETA ROMS,the Honeycomb start menu cab file is available on XDA,have any of you tried it out?
Microsoft is trying to control the leaks of WM 6.5 because it is not officially out yet. Windows Mobile 6 was ported to most (if not all) WM5 devices after it was released, and MS did not send any cease and desist orders for those ports.
@BlueAngel180: Yup, it will be sluggish, specially the honeycomb start menu. In a video by engadget released after Mobile World Congress showcasing of Wm 6.5, it was quiet sluggish even on some new VGA HTC device.
@NotATreoFan: hmm, thats enlightening So things should be fine after the official release, great! I was also waiting for that before porting 6.5 ROMs as the ones out there in beta are quiet buggy. I have found Wm 6.1 5.2.18128 Build 21109.5.0 to be most wonderfully stable and ultra fast yet, specially for the low end devices. The filesystem caching works really great in this build.
And sorry for posting in wrong section. Will take care in future
I can understand the 6.5 removals, but b16b has had his 6.1 links removed too.

Another nice thing about Titanium is that at the top of the cpr files you will see two lines that say "TitaniumListView" If you change both lines to "BronzeListView" you will see that the glass panel will move like the panel in the sliding panel interface of wm 6.1 standard. Its pretty cool! I an another guy have been tweaking the cpr's for the last week or so and we have learned alot, the customization is almost endless!
Thats really great buddy, really appreciate all you people's work. BTW, are you talking about the glass panel on the Today screen?

yea, the glass panel, its cool, the list will move as well as the panel! Also at the top you will see after the frames per second a line that says "Loop=False"
Change that to true and it will loop the panel from the bottom of the screen to the top if you are using the hardware buttons! The layer id focus height and and the Image ID= Image Default height, will adjust the height of the glass panel, you need to change them both to the same number or your panel will look cut off, the line "Image Default" refers to the panel so if you change the width it will make the panel as wide or narrow as you want! Look below!

i try build 21159 on gene u get 40mb free space on rom and 26mb free ram @ 5mb page pool
40 MB??? That is not very usable if that is what you get without any applications They have added too much to IE, thats why the size of sys is increasing in every build, apart from other reasons. And did you got stable [email protected] 5 MB PP? The previous build i tried choked at anything less than 6.

Need some resources to get started theming for DX

I'd like to give a shot to making some themes myself for you guys. Can someone recommend some good resources/guides to help me get started theming for DX? Preferably with files that would allow me to work on the leaked 2.2 build GUI as I'm under the impression that 2.2 files have changed significantly.
First thing, deodex your phone.
http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-themes/4620-how-manually-deodex-your-phone.html
Then follow this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749333
To get an idea of how to start. I'm also just starting tonight, but that's pointed me in the right direction.
Yay! Good luck and thank you. I probably won't get to start for two weeks since I'm going on a trip in two days. Be sure to post your progress here
Also See This: http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...notification-clock-pull-down-text-colors.html
That's important for changing text colors...I'm testing it now. Booting is taking longer than normal...if it works I'll post some pics next.
EDIT: It took awhile to boot, but it worked! Lots more work to do, but proof of concept.
EDIT2: You can see that I still have to do the icons/3g etc.

Nice start. Yeah I read that the deodexing slows boot because it has to rebuild the cache.
I think it's also because in order to change the text color you have to modify services.jar. Boot speed is back to normal, that was what was slowing it down.
Phew, gosh. It took a long time to boot, nerve-wracking. I didn't mind so much during deodexing, but when I was applying the theme, my heart almost stopped.
Then, right when it's almost done booting it makes a little TICK on the vibrate, and I exhale .
Anyway, first attempt worked!
Awesome! Congrats! I'm still trying to figure out a way to edit the XML files. AXMLPrinter2 apparently doesn't work with FroYo. Once I can edit everything, and I get home from work, I'm gonna really push on getting more images done.
Wanted to let you know I FINALLY got the XML's all sorted out.
Get this: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
Download and install per instructions on the front page.
Run in cmd like this:
apktool d -f <path to framework-res.apk>
It will decode the apk and pop all the files into a folder named after the apk. Then you can just open the XML files, and then you can build back again....though I haven't tackled that step yet.
Some of the apks are encoded? i don't think I have noticed one I couldn't open in winrar
No I can open the APK's just fine, but I couldn't open the XML's and see the plain-text. The apktool converts the XML so that they are readable in plain-text. Then you can use that to read the hex values in the XML properly. When I did this in status_bar.xml
I changed the HexValue AFTER 08 00 00 1C from 00 00 00 FF to FF FF FF FF. This changed text like "USB Connection" to show up in White now.
But it seems that status_bar_expanded.xml and status_bar_latest_event_content.xml don't have Hex Colors in them anymore. I'm still looking into this...
I just did this one and it does most of what you already want. may be a good starting point.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=760553
i'm just trying to see if I can sort out the transparency issues (see screens) and the fact that you can't seem to get transparent shade in 2.2 for DX
I have all that stuff done as well. The main problem I'm having is that, you see in yours where you have the actual notifications and the text is black? Well if I make a dark colored image/theme that text is almost unreadable. I'm trying to figure out how to make that particular text color white. Clock and everything I was able to do with services.jar hacking.
I'll delve into it more when I'm not at work
Have not tried it yet, but this may help you:

edit: don't think this is for 2.x, but look:
http://alldroid.org/default.aspx?g=posts&m=8222#post8222
this guy got it, and someone already asked how. maybe stay tuned for the answer
Here's the latest version, skinned the battery (and charging) animations, and the signal strength images so far. Just lightened it so that the text is readable until I figure exactly where those text values are stored.
Good start. Way to work with what you're given . Well, I'm off on my trip. I'll check back when I'm back. Happy modding.
Thanks, check for a PM from me too.
Feel free to use my files as a reference, you can use them in your theme and modify them to your liking. Just dont forget to give credit

Tizen OS Source Code Available

Hey friends,
We have heard about the Tizen OS. It is yet another linux os for the mobiles & smartphones. It seems that they have released their source code over here:
SOURCE CODE
and the SDK as well...
Hope to we can see this on our beloved HD2 soon.
well it's not so new, it's the fusion between, Limo, Moblin, Maemo, Meego (and i think Bada too since Samsung is heading up the project).
I think it will became the main Samsung OS.
Samsung planned 41 billion dollars for R&D this year....
I am following this thread for the past one year and I have yet to see someone post even a partially working build of maemo, meego, Limo, or Tizen as they call it these days. So here is the suggestion to all the devs who can make a build for the HD2, please make a partially working build so that someone else can improve upon it.
thanks in advance.
@s8isfi I have been following for a looking time also. I gave up a long time ago I don't even know why I'm on the forum.

Hi All,
I have downloaded the Tizen 1.0 ARM image from here and created new initrd.cpio and mounted all required filesystems (EXT4) to make Tizen boot from HD2. Used the kernel from here
Initially i was able to see some dialogs saying default depth should be 24 or 32. Then I configured xorg with framebuffer and with default depth as 16 as mentioned in Htc-Linux. I almost had it . Now i am stuck at black screen with a cursor displayed for long time :crying:.
I think I am missing something. This is the first time I am trying to do all this stuff. Need to go much more deep into it. I hope this should not take much time. I will try to come up with a positive status in this...
Cheers,
Diwakar
HTC HD2 - The Immortal
You could post the files for it here so others can contribute
Sure. I will share those files asap.
Okay let me share some news on my second try on Tizen in HD2. After long struggle Tizen boot was successful till the Tizen startup animation showed up!!! :good:
Now I could see a pop up error message (WOW! I can see a graphical content ) saying that the compositor must need 24 or 32 depth. But HD2 is configured Xorg and working fine only with 16bpp depth. So? Is it not possible to bring Tizen's UI with 16 bit depth?
What do you mean "it works fine only with 16bpp depth"? What are the consequences of 24 or 32bpp depth?
I apologize for not being clear.
When the depth was set as 24, the graphics looked like solarized and still no UI showed up.
Then I set the depth as 16 and connected a mouse through USB Hosting. When I right click, I can see 4 buttons "Volume Up", "Volume Down", "Home" and sorry i forgot one more button's text. When I clicked Volume Up button, I was able to see a dialog with volume slider but this dialog was cropped and displayed beyond the resolution. I presume the resolution has not fixed for 480x800. I will post some pics on this later.
Need some more time for me to know about X Window system / Composite Window Manager. Info#1 Info#2
Tried to boot the latest image of Tizen (LINK) but it looks like DEVTMPFS is not enabled in the kernel. Tried with the latest kernel as well but unable to load /dev. Need to modify the kernel and compile it.
After several tries and reworks still the screen remains black and with mouse pointer. But the mouse pointer is moving when a mouse connected to usb host and with touchscreen events as well. Anyone can suggest. Here is my xorg.config

I have no time for now, maybe later I will
Screenshot please
Went through this method on my Moto X. What I have to say is:
1) Strangely, it didn't make "Calls" the home of my whatsapp. The home is still chats.
2) Nevertheless, now, there are three tabs that appear on top of the app. CALLS / CHATS / CONTACTS
3) When I click the calls tab, it shows a phone button on top, where it usually is the "New Chat" button, and clicking it would let me make a call, but it doesn't show any contacts, not even my friends with iPhones who got the call button already.
4) I've tried to force stop the app a few times already and the calling contact list is still empty.
5) I'm on Kit Kat, so I don't know if it's because it's not Lollipop.
tl;dr: I can confirm this method makes the Call menu accessible, but I don't know if it works, because the calling contact list is empty.
Awesome job
confused

Yeah that works but the call feature disappears after a while, so you keep needing to input that code, which is really annoying.

It works to the extent of enabling the 3 tab interface including the 'Calls' tab, but none of the contacts are available for making a voice call. So, the entire act is kind of pointless at this moment.
modded apk would be nice

even if you do it in 2 phones?
maybe no contact available because all of your contacts haven't this feature
I'll upload a modded apk tomorrow
Just wait. .​

[APP] Pokemon Go+ Type Alerts Using Xiaomi Mi Band (Nexus 5) NON-ROOT

Hi All,
Little app for PoGo alerts on MiBand (and any fitness tracker!)
Basically - it works when the app is running - it allows me to use my Mi Band/BIP like a PoGo+ as well as trying its best to help with the battery saver mode (makes it dimmer and more black!)
The idea is that every time the app vibrates the Band does too, as long as it's allowed in the fitness tracker app. Works for MiBand and for Amazfit Bip in my testing, I assume it works for all smartbands that allow the user to choose apps.
You can choose the features in the app and they will automagically start as long as the 'App Active' button is set to 'ON'.
Optional features are:
* Simulate Go+
* Screen dim when facedown
* Screen dim when upside down
* Screen dim when proximity sensor covered
* Screen dim for both of the above
* Screen timeout set by app screen, resets to previous whe PoGo closes
I'm testing disabling the actual phone screen backlight/LEDs without root but I don't think it's possible (PoGo app closes). Still though, it should be more efficient than PoGo battery saver mode alone.
New install instructions (APK no. 65)
To make sure the app functions correctly you'll need to do the following in the given order.
Install app
Your phone should ask you for some permissions (e.g. draw over over apps)
Accept all the permissions and accessibilty options, but press NO to the 'learn how to enable read logs'
You'll need to open up ADB and allow READ_LOGS to use the GoPlus functionality.
Use the following ADB commands:
adb shell pm grant stoobacca.apps android.permission.READ_LOGS
adb shell am force-stop stoobacca.apps
Go to accessibilty settings and make sure the app is set to ON
Hopefully when you open the app all will work!
Hello, thanks for the app.

My device is HTC 10

I'll see if I can update for this. Just uploaded a new one which SHOULD make the black screen big enough for all phones
I've updated - I think for all questions people have sent.
My XDA doesn't show any responses to PM's so no idea if anyone has heard from me.
Latest rev. 26 should be OK.
Let me know!
Thank you for your work!
But there some bugs in new version:
1) black rectangle still not fully cover 6" screen
2) screen timeout setting not saved: I set 60, - reopen your app and there again 30
3) when I open pokemon go, then close it and look at display setting (at android menu) I see there is no one radio button selected so there maybe some bugged value set.
4) some of your app menu settings caption have 3 lines and it trimmed at end (nexus 6)
Hey man,
Thanks!
I think I broke some stuff in the most recent version. Will upload a new apk later.
1) The rectangle thing I'm working on.
2) I have set it to display the set variable. It will default to 30 if you force close the app. Might also have a problem if your phone can't support more than 30 (that's why it defaults)
3) I might have fixed this. Could you give me more info - maybe a screenshot?
4) I think I fixed the text display issue, let me know with the new apk. (also screenshot if you can)
Glad you like my app!
Stu
Today i testing version 3.5
+ Timeout option in your app now saves fine. And change phone screen timeout to this value when PoGo opens;
But i think this option is useless, what is the point to set not maximum timeout? It needed only if we cant figure out device's maximum screen timeout.
- Screen timeout does not resets to previous when PoGo hides (In version 2.0 it always resets to 1 min.)
If it difficult to restore previous value i wish to have option to reset it to 30 seconds
- Please add version of your app to top of settings page
- Some text layout bugs:

hi and thx for the app but unfortunately it didn't work.
i have installed your apps, app active and simulate go plus and allowed notification from your app on mi band and tools but doesn't work.
is there anything else to do ?
many thx
edit 1 : turn on accessibilty, app is starting when launching pokemon go but don't get any notification on mi band
i have galaxy S7 edge
Ask author to upload previous version ---> 2.0
I use it, works fine.
try the new version 3.8 , doesn't work.
what is the parameters i have to do in apps and mi band ?
thx
Apparently a lot of time since the last comment, but I feel lucky today.
A dumb question: with this app, can I fully simulate a PoGo+ bracelet or it only receive vibrations from the app?
Is it still working?
dont think so, i couldnt get it to work
I am confused as to how this app works. I believe I have everything set up, it has accessibility access, but I can't seem to get it to work. Could you possibly make us first start/set-up guide? (Moto E4)
Does it still work?
I can look at updating if people are still interested..
Hi All,
Sorry I've not been at all active on this forum..
I've seen people asking if this still works (sorry some were a very long time ago)!
I know it's not really useful now as unfortunately we can't go outside.. but if I can dig out my old files and get this working, would anyone be interested?
I can't guarantee it as I don't play PoGo anymore. But if people are interested, I'll see if I can get some time to try and get it working again.
Cheers, and stay safe!

I would really be interested in this. Don't know if you had any responses in pm.
I second that.
I would be very interested into a new version!
Alright then peeps, I've tracked down a version I backed up so I'll take a look see.
Give me some time and i'll try to get a new version. If you could post any issues here it will help me with what to fix.. it might be all of it so no worries if the lists are long!
