[Q] Launch Car Panel manually - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello there,
as there are several builds of android floating around the forum, some do have a "car panel" shortcut amongst the programs and other builds do not.
Since the GPS is working and gmaps navigation too, i like this car panel very much but on my favourite buld, the mattc 1.4 i can´t find how to launch the car panel
Any suggestions?
best regards...
p.s. sorry for my bad english :-D

Chances are that car panel was not pre-installed on your build.
Sent from my HTC HD2 running DarkStone HD2Froyo v1

I'm just wondering, because i do have settings form car panel...
Is there anders apk form car panel?

Android Ports

Has anyone seen any Android Ports for the Imagio?
and by ports you mean??
I mean has anyone hacked a build of Android with the Sense UI that will run on the Imagio.
If you are just looking for an emulator to impress your friends use this. It's actually quite cool, you can customize icon size, position, flick between 3 app screens and use your finger to draw the navigation pane up.
There is actually a port of Android on the Blackstone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572537 The devices are very similar, so maybe someone could modify it to work on the Imagio.
I'd absolutely love for android to be on my Imagio. Anyone know if anyone's working on it?
Has anyone attempted using the blackstone build?
I am interested in helping testing on my Imagio
Me too, I would love to help out and test.
Try Point UI, If you download the free version there are many themes to choose from. Try the pointsense theme, latest version. I was running it on my vogue till I got my Imagio and it was just like my brothers Droid.
Its available here:
http://www.pointui.com/
and you can watch it action here:

Thanks, but I dont want to make my phone LOOK like its running android, I want it TO be running Android.

Some questions for owners

I want to buy this device but i've some questions:
Does the browser support flash content like youtube .flv or .swf animations?
Does The SenseUI and the rest of software work in landscape?
Is there a GPS Navigation software available for Android?
Will be released an Android 2.0 upgrade from HTC?
Bluetooth bug and Alarm bug can be fixed?
tnx all and sorry for my bad english..
Does the browser support flash content like youtube .flv or .swf animations?
.flv works but little jumpy, you can use the youtube app, or there is a very good browser called 'Dolphin Browser' that allows .flv to be downloaded to yoru phone as a .mp4 file. cannot tell you about .swf
Does The SenseUI and the rest of software work in landscape?
Sense UI does not work in landscape mode, everything else does as long as you have the option ticked for auto rotation.
Is there a GPS Navigation software available for Android?
Yes, you can buy Copilot for £22 for 1 map or £54 for all maps, or just as good AndNav2 works great and is freely available. Plus, GMN may be launched in the near future (fingers crossed)
Will be released an Android 2.0 upgrade from HTC?
?? Who knows? I woudl imagine at some point but I cannot see it being a priority.
Bluetooth bug and Alarm bug can be fixed?
Don't know the bugs you are referring to.
thanks for your reply, wilfmoralee!
The Bugs are:
Alarm doesn't work if the device is in standy by, but i've read also that this issue comes only when the sim isn't plugged..
about the BT, it can't transfer files, i've read this in many sites/forum and also in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=586700) --> "Doesn't have Bluetooth transfer built in. There's a bluetooth app in the market, but it won't work until 2.0 comes out for the tattoo. Sorry"
Another simple question: can i record a phone conversation in "both sides"? Is there an app or it has an hardware limitation like my Xperia X1 that can only record my voice?
many thanks
i can't find anything in the market that does this, and as far as i know it's not a stock option.
hey
i know the tattoo cant send files over bluetooth but can it receive files over bluetooth?

As ridiculous as it sounds - it cannot.
You can send via bluetooth if u download a app that is called " Bluetooth File Transfer "
It's on the market.

That app is not yet compatible with Tattoo. It needs Eclair to work correctly.
Hope HTC will release the upate soon
Hey!
It's been a month since the last reply in this topic ... any news about those things?
- Blue-tooth problems still there or are already solved (sending/receiving files)?
- GPS Navigation (that doesn't require w-lan connection)?
- upgrading Android 1.6 to 2.1 ... possible?
I would also appreciate your comments about the Tattoo; user experiences - why YES and/or why NO
Bluetooth file transfer will not work. The Bluetooth File Tranfer app does not work with Tattoo on Android 1.6.
I assume most GPS Nav. programs would use EDGE or 3G services rather than WLAN, since you won't be connected to 1 network while you're navigating!
Apparently it's possible, but there has been no documented or official way of doing it AS OF YET.
Why YES to the Tattoo:
It's compact. Good form factor. Affordable for me. Good social networking integration.
Why not:
Bad camera, both for pics and videos. Application compatibility with smaller screen(not all of them work, but most of the apps available on Market work fine). Battery life is less when features like Wi-Fi, mobile internet or GPS is used(as expected from any smartphone).
Can anyone confirm that "hcitool" is working in the terminal? "hcitool dev" should give information about the bluetooth adapter in the telephone. hcitool scan should give bluetooth devices nearby. I need to know this before I order this telephone. Thanks in advance!
"Permission denied"
Thanks, ok this means that root access is required to run hcitool correctly. Did you root your droid?
This is the tattoo forum. Theres no root actually for the tattoo and yes root is required to use this service.

I am not sure if you can switch to default or anything, but there are heaps of sms apps on the market, a couple of which are pretty good - once installed you can make it the 'default' app, disable notifications in the htc version and away you go.
Using the stock keyboard
I'm not sure what the old keyboard you were looking for looks like, but I was successful at adding the stock keyboard (with voice input) back as noted in my recent post in the thread titled "Froyo 2.2 Keyboard APK" (post 20).
Sense was was a great improvement for WinMo, but the UI kind of sucks (imho) for Android. I upgraded to the FroyoStone update the other day and it seemed more stable (less SoD, that's for sure). But the HTC junk scattered across the UI ruined it for me.
the darkstone thread has a link for the apk of the kb youre looking for. search don't ask they'll bite your head off

Froyo Car Home?

So I install the default Froyo Car Home to replace the Sense version, my question is how to I update the unuse panel on the second screen? I've search everywhere but cannot find a solution. Is this customizable like the Droid X car home? If not is there a ported working one for the Evo?
I'm interested in this also. Where did you get the factory Android car home?

[Q] Locations navigation

Hi
Ive just seen the locations navigation on the Desire HD and was wondering if there is any way of putting it on a standard desire?
HTC locations
Hi Friend,
I have installed HTC locations by flashing with the fantastic RCMixHD rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789830
I have had no problems with this rom, fast, stable and comes with locations as standard. I have purchased the locations (30 days @ £3.99) and it works quite well. Got to admit i prefer Navigon though, but locations should be better when it is tomtom powered rather than Route 66.
Hope this helps
regards
Is this application going to be on Android 2.3 for Desire,anyone know?
