I've pulled this build. I stand behind google's request to not distribute builds including closed source applications.
what is advanced launcher?
it allows you to hide apps you don't use from your launcher drawer by dragging them to the trash.
Hey mssmison,
Your post says 320x240 res, but the decription on Vogue android says 320x480
Booted up using usual 320x480 fine, data and market works, able to place a call.
nice theme and pretty damn fast so far also.

actually, try 320x427 with lcd.density=160 for a correct aspect ratio while allowing the usage of all the apps.
very, very nice release indeed.
- using 320x427 with lcd.density=160 for correct aspect ratio while not breaking any apps (such as keyboard).
- very fast call notification (within 1st ringtone)
- wifi working
- data working
- market working
- very fast
- left some extra stuff, such as the rogers stuff (my account, ringback, ringtones), teeter, :-/
I set to 320x427 with lcd 160 but some apps like the music app is still getting cut off.
Also on the market I am only seein a few apps and games, not the full market.
I had this same issue with the 1.6 donut also.

it works with basefiles-20090919-v2
delete/rename any current data.img
1st boot takes a little longer (5 minutes?) displaying only a black screen in the process. just wait...

On the google Code page you will find a new bundle for the newly updated HTC cupcake build.
Includes advanced launcher, latest messaging app as well as many others.
You must make sure your res is 320x240 to boot. again the old rootfs won't work, this one is updated. I'll update the bundle later.

Hi
What a wonderfull build.. Thanks a lot to all who have developed this. Andriod definetly is far better than WM (for me atleast)
Was able to install the rogers build. It took sometime. I used the rootfs.img that came with the zip but didnt work on my tilt. So i used the one from the basefiles-v2 and that did the trick. It took sometime to load initially but did work.
Things that worked
1. Wifi and Market. Was able to download applications
2. Browser working
3. Calling and SMS worked (though with slight issues)
4. GPS working (recoginzed in google maps and Sportyhal)
5. Import contacts worked
6. Music with good clear sound
7. Great speed
Things that didnt work or had issues
1. You tube connect and i can listen to music but can only see the first image that it download and not the whole video
2. For some reason I cannot confirm at this time the calling was going thru but wasnt able to hear the call answer
3. All new icons for shopping, Home, My account give errors
4. Standard things not working - Camera, bluetooth, speakerphone on call, the calibaration application always force closes.
Not tried data connection as I dont use it
Can anyone help me out with anyof the above issue or is this something everyone is facing.....
I will continue to use this version instead of WM ...
Thanks

May be tilt related with the calling. I use this as my daily build and haven't experieinced these issue. The rogers apps that are there are only for rogers network users. I had a request to leave them so I did. You can always hide them with the advanced launcher, just drag them to the trash.

About YouTube: when the video starts, go to options and select normal quality
I can't believe that even on my beautiful sleek Nexus One, I can't view embedded email pictures. Does anyone know why this is? And if not maybe some one knows how to fix it? This is actually ridiculous if you ask me, its the Gmail app that has been made by Google for a Google operating system on a Google phone but it can't display embedded email pictures? Whats going on here?
It works fine for me... Did you push the "Show Pictures" button near the top of the email?
Sometimes they show up for me. Usually they don't though and I always press 'show pictures'. I love the phone bit its the least of my issues: I can't send mms to any phone bit android, I get 'uportal error' on a common site that the iPhone 3g and 3gs access no problem, and I often get a quarter of an inch of orange load bar when clicking a link in the browser which sometimes is only remedied by a phone reset. I have loved all 3 of my android phones though and Its google we're talking about. They are all about te internet and I trust they are diligently working to improve te average, albeit fast browser experience.
I just read my post and good God this keyboards tough to type on.

Change your user agent like I suggested your other thread, and use the speech to text. ; )
I have pressed show picture, all i get is a question mark in a little blue box and i can see the frame of the picture that is spoused to be there. I know im not the only person people. Don't make me feel like im the only one here..
Currently, the gmail app does not support embedded pictures in emails. When you see pictures it's because the person attached the picture to the email. The only way to see embedded pictures in an e-mail on your phone is to log into gmail through the browser. This has been like this since 1.5 and has been submitted to google numerous of times. Hopefully they will fix this problem.

I have the same issue as OP and have since I can remember (since I got my G1 on pre-order) and clicking on "show pictures" and clicking on the blue square does nothing for me on my G1 and my Nexus.
/agree with mgorman.....
Embedded pictures is working just fine in the Gmail app, had some ad-spam from Direct2Drive, Apple, Impulse etc in my inbox just now and they all had embedded pictures. Clicked show pictures and it worked like a charm, this was also over 3g network.
As far as I know I can't take screenshots with an un-rooted phone, so I've attached a picture.

You can use the Android sdk to take pictures of the phone:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Make sure USB debugging is on, plug in phone to PC
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools -> ddms.bat
Not sure what you guys are talking about. Embedded pictures work absolutely flawlessly on my phone
Ah of course via the SDK. Been developing for Android for some time, but I've only been using the emulator since I've been too lazy to actually hook up my phone

do you have astro file manager installed? there is an option in this app that allows you to download otherwise un-downloadable files through the stock browser that makes pictures in email not work (according to the setting in the app itself)
anybody have the Qik for HTC EVO 4G apk for the evo, the one with the blue icon and it has video chat??? its not in the market anymore...
I was able to download it when it was first posted, how can I get the all file from the phone so I can upload it?
copy it from your data/app folder using root explorer
I was able to download it when they had it published, but they unpublished it because their systems were overloaded with the overwhelming demand for using their service when the Evo first came out. I'd personally wait for them to publish it back to the market. Your performance is going to be spotty otherwise.
View attachment com.qikffc.android.apk
Here is the apk for the Qik for HTC EVO 4G make sure that after you install you reboot the phone either by turning it off and on or removing the battery. Once you reboot the phone the icon will be blue.
Edit: Newfile uploaded, previous file just let you record.
Installed the apk, powered down, removed battery, powered up, but I still have the orange icon.

The problem is that after the blue icon update qik released another update with a Orange icon. This update only allows you to go live but people must go to their website to see you it doesnt allow video chat. The other apk that I uploaded is the version with video chat and blue icon.

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
Here ya go guys! I uploaded it to 2 places
RapidShare: http://bit.ly/cBkxgf
Google Docs: http://bit.ly/9fdKIZ
I'm having trouble verifying my phone number. Whats wrong. I never seem to get the Text Message.
Btw if any of you guys want to follow me on Qik, I do random videos of Puerto Rico. Like rate restaurants and local points of interest.
Heres the link: http://qik.com/gsoulpr
Just email support and they will help you activate it...that's what I did.
yeah, it looks like Qik servers must still be turned off, because even though the app appears to be the proper one, nothing happens when you try to have a video chat..you cant even send a video email at this point..
plus, I never get the text message "verification" either..
Its like they just turned the whole app off or something..
If you haven't verified it's why you can't use the app. Send support small email with your username and phone number and they will help you activate the phone. I have held several video chats so I can confirm it works.
how long does it take them to respond?
did you use [email protected]?
thanks!
That's where I emailed the and the response was real fast.
ok, I sent them emails for both my wife and myself; lets see if they respond..
thanks!
hi, firstly may i say im sorry for asking these questions as to you guys they will sound so stupid !!! after giving up my trusty se k800i after many years & pressure of the grandkids to move with the times i now have a htc wildfire ( didnt even know who htc were untill now !) although i seem to be getting to grips with it ( well kinda lol ) i am quite dissapointed that there wasnt a better instruction manual in the pack, i only got a quick start guide, so these are the things i would like to know
text message- how do i forward a recieved message? i cant find the option anywhere ?
is there a option to get up all the text boxes? ie: sent box, recieved,drefts etc..
locked- is there any other way to wake the phone up apart from the on/off button at the top? i have problems with this now as i bought a gel cover & its makes it harder to use with 1 hand !
glowing buttons- is there anyway to have the 4 buttons (home,menu etc ) on the bottom glow when the phone is in use? these are impossible to see in low light & i am sick of hitting the wrong 1 !!
apps- is there a app for viewing tv on the wildfire? bbc i player , catch up tv etc, i looked on the net & skyfire seems to be the app but when i search the market its not there ?
anyway , that will do for now lol, im sure i will be back with more stupid questions soon lol, i quite like the feel of this phone although i was very dissapointed that it will not do video calls as this is a feature i used quite a lot on my old phone as i work away & chatted to the grandkids & they showed me stuff they had made at school etc, its my own fault for not checking i suppose, i just assumed, if old phones can do it surely the cutting edge phones can, i was wrong lol, anyway thanks for letting me drone on !!!
To forward message, long press the received message, and a pop up screen with several options appear. Sent messages auto appear in the conversation list.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
There is no other way to wake up the phone except the on/off button.
The light for the 4 buttons only glow when the sensor detects insufficient light.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
If you look at the front of your phone, you'll see the HTC logo. Right of that logo, you sometimes can see 2 sort of sensors. Place your finger in front of that and the buttons will glow
thanks a lot chaps, now working fine lol

Beautiful though. Good sign of things to come.
Anyone else get "Invalid Request" after trying to sign in? It looks like a site error rather than a browser one. I get the same message from multiple browsers.

i got that from the main page, but then i clicked on an app to dl and it sent me to an actual login page. i didn't login cause i didn't actually want to dl the app, i was just checking, so it might work that way.
This is nice!
good find had no trouble signing in.
Very exciting!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Tried again. Working now. Might have been the traffic / popularity of the site.
Not sure if you guys watched the honeycomb announcement, but it was amazing. Made me want a tablet, and donkey punch an ipad user.
Forgive my ignorance, but what is exciting about web access to the market? Is it supposed to be better than our regular market app?
The Hotness! Logged in. See all of my apps. Can download apps from the website will sync immediately into your phone!
Way to step up android!!
You can browse on your computer, then install the apps OTA, so to speak. Easier to link to apps you like, install them without taking the phone out of your pocket, for example, that kind of stuff. It's just more convenient in some situations.
Well, I just thought of something.... does it work with custom ROM's? I just downloaded something on the net, and it hasn't really downloaded on Bionix V. Maybe I should go on over to the Bionix V thread and ask.
Unfortunately, it is so pointless right now because it can't function correctly over wifi only* connection. It just lists it in my market place under "My Downloads" and not actually installing the application.
I am using wifi only, because 3g is cut off in my office building.

Well I'm pretty sure all developers keep the fingerprint as the old eclair build for proper regular market access. Obviously I have no idea if this website would react differently. Who's to say it's not just as problematic on stock builds though? It is a brand new site after all.
Edit: Well I tried it out for the fun of it. It shows the download trying to take place on my phone, but the progress bar does nothing. Then again, I get this fairly often with the regular market too.
