So, now that people have figured out how to enable Navigation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=582656), how about the Eclair CarDock?
bogdi1988 was able to install it by modifying the prop file (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4921107&postcount=201), but it won't run yet. Has anyone else tried it?
Thanks
it installs with the prop, but it fails to start. it gives 'force close' and that's all.
as soon as i put original props, app deletes itself. i shell-ed in the phone and it was missing from /system/app folder and also from the Settings - Application page.
i guess we need an app that is de-odex-ed... or w/e it's called... (it's late here)
I also got it to install with the prop on my MT3G but when i revert back to original props the app is missing
I also installed under new prop files and then reverted back to old, car home still remains for me... of course, this is completely useless as the app force closes just like for everyone else.
you guys stil trying? =P
java.lang.RuntimeException: Binary XML file line #25: You must supply a layout_height attribute.
I'll look into this but probably incompatibility due to it being the 2.0 sdk
first thing no idea what im talking about but droid have magnetic dock/sensor so would u have to change dock code from mag to accelerometer
I checked, there are no android:layout_heights missing anywhere. 99% sure this can only be run on a phone with 2.0 frameworks then. Besides, all the packed graphics are for WVGA and would have to be scaled down.

not entirely sure if they could do that as it would launch everytime the phone was tilted but they should be able to remove that code alltogether. The software comes with a shortcut that can be placed on the desktop and launched just like an app.
Since the stood has a bigger screen then the dream and magic is possible that the only problem is resizing the resolution to be compatiable with the dream n magic

I know the G1 has a compass which is a magnetic sensor. Don't most Android phones have compasses?

Interesting idea. A quick check with a rare-earth magnet shows a clear order-of-magnitude difference on the magnetometer, as you'd expect. That seems like a more significant code change, though, since you're adding a conditional check on the magnitude of the mag field.
Already a metal detector app on market
seems way more feasible to work via shortcut.

I'm able to run the Car Home (CarDock.apk) on Cyanogen 4.2.8.1 (ADP1), although the 'navigate to' voice commands don't work (needs map update?).
Here's the apk I used: http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/apps/CarDock.apk
Does anyone know where the magnetometer is on the G1/ADP? I want to test the auto-switching without running a magnet all over and potentially damaging it.

I downloaded pocketgoo version 2.0 on my Samsung Omnia and it did not work. Everytime I tried to load the jpg files it would display a blank screen. Am I doing something wrong?
Anyways Face Melter and FaceWarp for the othet guys are *****ing apps I would like to see a newer style app similar to this.

Actually i prefer facewarp itself, but it didnt work on my nike. Thats why i decided to use pocketgoo few months ago. I dont know why it's not working on omnia.
Is there anyway to get the camera to launch from the Java emulator? This app is pretty cool.
As far as pocketgoo is concerend, I ran v2.1 and it worked on my Omnia..

I'm not 100% sure this is it since I don't have my Nexus One yet so I need someone willing to test.
I found it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFh9RKsN6w&feature=player_embedded
This is the same one that's pixelated on the Nexus One. Also, doesn't stretch the full screen in landscape mode.
It is still the pixelated version. That wouldn't even bother me that much if the correction bar on the top fit on the screen and wasn't horribly warped.
Damn sorry then. The one in the video looks good though.
do you need to be rooted for this? Because I tried it using an appinstaller. It shows up in the clicker, but when I create new messages, it reverts back to the stock google keyboard.
You have to go into the settings and enable it, then when you're in a message box click the box and hold, then select "input method". You can alternate between the 2.
haha ya i forgot to do the "hold" part in the message box. thanks!
pixelated...but at least i don't have to switch back n forth for numbers and punctuations. can't wait for the non-pixelated version w/ microphone key =)

We'll need a high-res 2.1 SenseUI device to come out - probably need to wait for a Bravo leak.
Yep, works fine on N1 running MCR1.1 but pixelated. Will have to live with that for a while as it still beats the hell out of the standard Android keyboard...
Is the file linked from youtube the same as this file?

So I emailed HTC to find out if they will update the htc_ime.apk so that it will work on the nexus or look properly I should say. I am currently waiting for a response... let you guys know when I get a reply. I will post it.

Ha good luck with that. They won't update it until they release a phone with the Hi-Res Sense UI.
Most likely we'll have to wait until a bravo dump is leaked or another sense UI device w/ a hi res screen's dump is leaked.
I'm running HTC_IME on the N1.... its great to have it back, only complaint is the lack of the dedicated 'microphone' key thats in the default keyboard... so AFAIK once you install HTC_IME you can NOT dictate text messages and the like
Does anyone know how to edit the dictionary for htc ime?
I don't know about editing words but you can erase it by going into your settings > applications > keyboard > clear data.
I installed this and it works great but my only issue-request would be to add more languages. The option is there, when you go to settings from inside the keyboard, but unfortunately, only english is available.
In the past, people have made language packs...could someone do on for this? pleeeeeeeease?
Thanks,
Lou
I used to change com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml file to enable dual language on my htc ime. I was wondering if this can be changed in the apk before installing. I dont want to root my nexus.
Thanks

Maybe I'm just an idiot, but can someone tell me how to add apps to the empty spots on the second screen of the new car dock? Thanks.
Anyone know?
I second this. Looks like you should be able to add any shortcut you'd like.
Maybe that will be fixed in the official release of Froyo

or maybe they are there for certain apps to take advantage of? which apps i have no clue

i agree, they put those spots there, must be for a reason. I would love to be able to add shortcuts to navigate to common places like home. If this is possible there will be no need for me to attempt making my own car dock app.

doesn't look like that is for our resolution though
Even with the final, official release of Froyo, the Car Dock app still has these unused slots. There doesn't appear to be any way to customize the empty buttons. What gives here?
I tried looking for the car home code on googles git hub.
Did'nt find it but it should be there...somewhere.
I was thinking one of the chefs can add some code to populate the blanks and give us an updated apk we can all use
Some interesting things.
1) car home added to the sdk
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=pl...6;hp=139e33243bbe92858f39919c220a4d65fe8790bd
This also tells us that its built by the sdk.mk build file
2) the "sdk" git project
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/sdk.git;a=tree
3) all the projects
http://android.git.kernel.org/
Grrrrrrrrrr.
hey everybody,
just got my brand new cardock and played a bit with the 2.2 brand new car home..
It's pretty cool and easy to use but there's something that can make it maybe even better : what about those empty spots on the "second" page? You've got maps, settings, brightness and then 3 empties...
I'm wondering if there's any dev out there willing to mod the app and try to get those empty spots customizable;
What if we could set a direct sms , or direct call, or custom app launch on one of those empty spots? Maybe even better if we could have more than 2 pages...
This is just an idea, but I hoestly don't have the needed tech skilss to make this happen so... anybody willing to contribute/help/make the dream come true?
Everybody's contribution is well appreciated
This is somethine also I want. I want spotify on that second page.
/Söder
Agreed. Would be nice to add apps to those empty spots.

Has anyone dug into the code and see if the carhome has shortcut intents?
Since there's no way to actually modifiy from the UI, I think that's how google may have coded it.
This is a great idea for a mod. I've used the Car Dock V.2 app in the past, but went back to the stock Car Home. I have zero skill in coding, but I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler to create a car home app that retains the look of the Google app, but with some similar functionality to Car Dock V.2 (long press icons to add shortcut, change icon, etc... and add maybe add extra screens). I don't know about the rest of you, but the Exit Car home annoys me too. I much preferred it in 2.1 when you could go into the standard launcher, but the home key would take you back to the car home. Just a couple of thoughts.
I know this is my first post, but I really think the car app is one of those where the stock app, just misses the boat.
So, glad to see some of you feel the same needing of a better car dock app...
I really hoped holiday time could bring a dev/coder to take a look at this thread, but it seems like some more advertising is indeed needed!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Looks like Car Home is proprietary Google software like GMail. I couldn't find any source and/or the ability to use shortcut intents
Prof-KOS is probably right, would be easier just to make a look alike
I think Google did a very disappointing job on with car dock in froyo
For now I have configured one screen of adw launcher with things I need for car mode. Then I have installed dock nothingness to disable the car home. And also car dock settings app to switch on-off Bluetooth etc...
Is it possible to even color the car dock icons, maybe with a morph???

Google just updated the Android Car Home, now it's a stand alone app and customizable.
Great! Too bad I can't update through the market with CM6, guess because it's a system app..
Could anybody post the app or remind me the adb commands to do the trick?

I pulled out the apk if anybody should need it...
I had two Car Home 2.2's in Titanium Backup-- one was "CarHomeGoogle.apk" and one was "CarHomeLauncher.apk"
I deleted both of them, and now there's no icon for Car Home-- I have a feeling I shouldn't have deleted CarHomeLauncher, but I forgot I needed to reboot after I removed CarHomeGoogle. D'oh.
Anyone have that launcher apk?

ICS source code has been released, I will be building a rom from source code
Reserved #2
ICS-Nexus Version (previous work)
UPDATE1: I have been able to boot the Ice cream sandwich, it displays a white screen which is the boot animation, then turns into greyish blocks, I think its most likely to do with the .so files, modt likely adreno200.so, I will be testing a few things to see if it makes any difference
UPDATE2: Boot animation is showing!!, system boots!!, only recieving system ui error once clicked ok then recieve another setup error, cant get past this error just now, see everything clearly showing on screen, touchscreen needs tweaking as its all over the place, this build has a cursor in it
UPDATE3: Thanks to Lordclockan whos dumped a logcat of the rom, I see the problems that need to be fixed, Ive jump back into my linux to sort the problems out as soon as possible
UPDATE4: Things are looking very good, I got rid of most errors, If things go as planned, ICS will be released today
UPDATE5: Im very busy today guys so still dont know if it will be released today, but I have got further here's another screenshot for you guys its up and running just need to fix system ui fc now, hopefully itll come soon
UPDATE6: SYSTEMUI GONE!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!, its working, will need to test and make sure itll be atleast usable will let you know if itll be released tonight
EDIT: SYSTEM UI FC IS BACK , hopefully get it sorted soon
UPDATE7: System UI fc is gone definitely!! rebooted to make sure and theres no system ui fc, my touchscreen works much better than normal, still have to use 2 fingers but wherever you touch thats where itll take you!! unfortunately I cannot release this yet, I will test this further and maybe get someone to put up a video, thanks
UPDATE8: This nexus dump isnt a normal dump, looking through the settings its a developers build from the looks of it!, theres extra features Ill put up a pic, so yes this build is probably buggy since its a developers build! awesome extra features! pic below
UPDATE9: I've fixed radio, GPS was working but Ive messed that up somehow, will get that working again, I found the problem to touchscreen!! hopefully itll be fixed soon

any insight on how to disable hw acceleration?
Inspire 4G // BlackICE
Its too difficult to take off hardware acceleration unless theres an on/off switch for that, Just got home recently will test with the nexus dump
the "on/off switch" is in egl.conf removing the second line from it (adreno200 or something similar) will revert it to using the android default egl drivers - and therefore will fix graphical corruption theoretically. Wanna post that booting zip? It would save me a bit of trouble. This is the version to work with - besides likely broken libs we at least should be able to use the touchscreen sans a cursor.
