Now that everyone is happy to get root back. What do you think the next big thing coming for this phone is.
Qtronix
I want to see something like OpenArena get ported :-D, or some game that actually uses the 3D power on this jawn!! Pref FPS and using the accelorameter.
Anyways, good looks to everyone who helped in getting this going, I was stuck with an unrooted rc30 for a minute!! thanks!!!
When I get time, I want to play around and see if any emulators can run and access the framebuffer without going through Java.
Plenty of the major console emulators (nintendo, sega, arcades, neo-geo, etc.) have been compiled to run on ARM processors already (GP2X/GP32). I'd love to see them on a G1, tho it might take doing the Debian thing to get to where they'd actually work.
Free sim unlock Or porting windows mobile
Yeah another 1+ for Windows Mobile on the G1.
More apps being developed that require root, (Home Today Screen) like WinMo....
Someone should just write out a list of things to do after root.
Can you WinMo-on-G1 guys keep your posts on this thread pretty please? That way the rest of us only have to ignore one thread.
I'm a little disappointed* that the pace of things is going so slow. I don't recall the timeline but when the iPhone was hacked, there were little programs popping out all over the place as people recompiled things for the OS.
*I'm not a programmer so I'm not going to tell others how to do their work. I presume native apps are coming and I'll be grateful when they get here at whatever pace.
What about flash? Iphone has a little app that lets them use flash. When's ours coming?

Let's see.... iPhone came out how long ago? They still don't have cut & paste? They still don't have MMS? They still don't have ...... A LOT
Yet you are worried about the pace we are seeing things? Sorry, but major problems are being resolved daily.

It's already been developed, just give it some time to actually be released.

isn't that kind of a silly question?
how many times a day do you check these forums, or other android news sites?
Our google friends are working hard we are developing a lot of thing at the moment if you hop on irc once in a while it filled with devs. G1 it juss take time u got to wait. I been trying to get copy and paste ported but it need to developed in the sdk better. I am also porting touchflo to g1, well a knock off verison lol.
I would like to see desktop widgets. Like an RSS reader, weather forcasts, and music player.

Is it really though? Granted, while we will all eventually get it, would you know if it was being pushed OTA right this second? Historically, one or two people got the OTA update and they announced it.
However, now that everyone has OTA blocked (minus the people that don't bother and also don't frequent boards)...who is going to tell us if Google doesn't post something up the very second it is available?
then youll have to wait a few days.
Check the t-mobile forums, nothing yet.

There's alway the question of the dev phones. No OTA update for them anyway, and google is going to tell the devs to upgrade their phone. There will probably be some kind of announce on android-development mailing lists as well.
Don't worry, we'll know, one way or the other

(Shaking hands & Jumping impatiently)
But I wanna know NOOOW
Our updates are blocked really? I honestly wondered if our phones downloaded the updates then tried installing the update or it sends the keys then updates. But the answer is not that important to search. As for things being done I believe Jf recompiled busybox from 1.8 mb to 700k and linked it to the system. That's a big step forward
Hi all ,I'll try to not get on anyones nerves and when only post when totally lost.I've been a bb user for the last year and had a lot of fun playin with os and stuff like that and the other day a friend told me I can hve her htc touch pro she said it was way too slow for her and she wants response when she touches something lol.my first question is if its possible to use it like a laptop that has wifi to where I can put a program on it just to use internet through wifi without turning on everything through a phone carrier?don't really need phone part but would like to just use wifi and internet?and if not what is the best rom(I guess that's like the os)to put on it for fstest response to the touchand best apps or whtever on it.really just want something to be ble to watch vids on websites or downlod stuff onto?thank you ahead of time for any help its greatly appreciated. Dave
it's called using the internet browser and disabling the Media net or carrier's equivalent of cell internet.
Roms are dependant on what it's made for. look around on the rom dev forum. read the stickies there to learn how to flash new roms and try to get wm6.5 since it's a ton better.
btw, start using the search function. your answers are usually found in some thread waaaay back when.
check www.fuzemobility.com as well
Thank you very much sounds simple enough

I guess you found this forum by searching on net. So you could use same method on the forums too. Just a simple search would give you excellent results.
http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner-pub-2900107662879704:fs7umqefhnf&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=apps+for+hd2
Don't take it personally.
Was recommended this forum from a friend off BBS air guns he said it was a great forum where the people are very helpful and this is the place to fined all I need for my phone.
I have had a look through but it all seems gobblygook to me I just know I will end up doing something to my phone of shouldn't
Get registered at freeware pocket pc then download oMarket on your phone. It is a free app marketplace similar to WM marketplace. Also, go to hd2apps blog. Tons of apps and games (all free), best site imo. If you like to know people's recommended apps, go to TMobile HD2 forum, there are several threads there dedicated for that, just do a search. That is where newbies should go first before dabbling into XDA as in my opinion this forum is more for relatively advanced users...for tweaking and customization, a little less on apps and games.
Cheers for that
Welcome to the HD2 world here on XDA.
I totally understand how everything can be/is confusing at first. Having the phone for a day or so and not knowing what is out there to do even a general search. Reading the posts here will give you a general knowledge of the cab files that will enhance and customize your new phone to your liking. It really isnt that hard once you start playing around a bit.
Might I suggest bookmarking this forum, and keeping an eye on it. Lots of stuff here to do to your phone. Also read though all the posts in the "post your leo today screens" thread. tons of stuff there, and everyone shares what they have.
Please do remember the search feature is your friend. New threads with the same old questions that have been posted and answered 50 times will most likely only get you a few pointed responses.
Hope you enjoy your new HD2 phone and your time here.

Friend off an Airgun forum??
Bet he's got some really silly username trying to make himself sound like some crack shot hero too hasn't he? Sad. Very sad.
Don't worry mate, they're not all that unfriendly on here, as the other two posters have proved.
This place can be a bit daunting, just read lots for a few days and it'll start becoming clear, drop me an email or PM on here if you get stuck.
What sort of stuff are you looking for?
Finding my way round got some top apps already my phone is starting to become mine now

Hey livebaituk,
Have you formatted the card before using it? Try that first....
Otherwise, did you buy it from eBay?? I had the same problem with the one I got from there, did a quick test on it and it turned out to be fake!
Use the program below to test the memory card and see if that's the problem....
(you will need to have a microSD convertor to use direct with your computer, either to usb or to SD if you have a SD card reader).
That's all I can think of, hope that helps,
streaming divx from http sites without alternate programs works on g2x out of box. i had never got this to work before but after i tried rockplayer on my droid again and if i chose download from the site instead of watch it did work on the droid too, wish i had tried that earlier , but its working on g2x without any additional programs.
Hope this helps out someone. if the site gives a watch or download choose the download the watch will still give you the blue lego but if you choose download it will start playing.

yes i know this. and i expected it to play div files playing a file and streaming a file are 2 differnt things. if you already knew this great . how about not giving a smart ass answer and moving on. and let people that didnt know this find out.
of course all developers come here but i only visted to find little things and see waht was new. and work with a couple developers here. i never spent this amount of time as i have the last week reading regarding the G2x and im extrememly disapointed at what is allowed to go on here. i have never seen such childish me me behavior on any other forum. i dont think i have seen 1 thread without someone trolling it, telling someone they are stupid for having an opinion, or just rude comments and behaviors.
glad you knew this from the back of the box im happy for you but i bet there are many that didnt realize it would stream without an addon program. hopefully someday i will be as smart as you.

anyways back to the actual topic . if anyone else tried this i am seeing a pause about every 8 seconds watching the divx stream . im on my wifi but the router may be hosed it does say buffer occasionally when these freezees occur but not always. wonder if anyone else is getting the same or if they have a good steady stream. will try it on 4g tommorow when im at work in a 4g area.
thanks

Woah calm down, sparky. It wasn't a smart response. I was just sharing your joy about divx and pointing out that the logo is on the back of the box - which is a rarity for Android phones.

stagevu was the site i was using just choose download to any video rather than watch. im pretty sure the pauses were just buffering issues just trying to make sure. also this phone is very quite compared to the droid not sure its loud enough for me will see how it goes over the next week.
thanks for the response.

Anyone know an easy way to make Chrome always open in desktop mode?
I did a search and it looks difficult to me. I use my tablet primarily for surfing the web and watching videos but I really prefer the Chrome desktop mode. If it can't be done I think this becomes a serious drawback for using the S7 Plus.

Using adb is not complicated at all and just requires that you follow the instructions.

Hey folks. Thanks for the suggestions but I don't even know what ADB is. I was hoping there would be some app to download and install. With any luck Google will make a change in Android 11 if they ever want to truly compete with Apple in the tablet business.
