Vogue-HTC build, based on Cupcake, pulled..

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.

XM Radio Froyo 2.2 Update is out XM 1.1

http://www.siriusxm.com/android/indexd.html
View attachment 403113

Awesome, love my XM.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Just tried it a bit. I'm on Fresh 3.2. It used to not even connect, just say "Aquiring Data Connection"
With this update it plays and doesn't loop, but it sure does jump and skip quite a bit. Guess it's a start....
Only Froyo ROM I've ever gotten SXM to work right on is CM6 - which I don't wanna go back to.

Nice thanks for the update. I guess signing up on their webpage for an update email was pointless.

Well thats how I found out they emailed me. Also make sure you dont have the stagefright fix since I am also running Fresh 3.2 and had to switch back to stock stagefright files in order for it to play properly.
1 hr running and no problems so far... Thanks XM

Please tell me what you did to stagefright. I know Flipz made some changes to it but I don't know how to undo them. In my build.prop the player is enabled and it still skips a lot.
Thanks!!

I am using Fresh 3.2 and the new SiriusXM app is working fine for me. I'd say about 3 skips every hour or so. I actually only use this for Bloomberg and CNBC - I much prefer slacker and pandora for music, so a couple of skips is no big deal for me.
What I desperately can't figure out is how to record a live stream off the sound card (for lack of a better term). All recording apps seem to use the microphone only. Any ideas so that I can listen to specific CNBC shows like Kudlow on my ride home?

Just extract the stagefright files from your original rar file and then ad push or copy and paste with Root explorer into the system/lib folder overwriting the files that are there now
Then replace the build.prop with the one from your original rom rar file as well.
I WIll try and attached them here for you.... what rom are you running

Actually, after a reboot, I'm finding no skips at all as well.

Hate to bump this thread up again, but seemed like the best place to post rather than making a new thread.
Is anybody having issues with SXM 1.1 and connecting in the past couple of days? Its worked flawlessly for me since the update, and I've been happy with it again. However, now, on startup, the application hangs on "Checking for Updates".
Tried clearing data, uninstall/reinstall, and hard reset fresh install. All no dice.
Anybody else having issues?

Nexus One and 2.3.4 - Talk doesn't support voice or video

heya,
I've got the new 2.3.4 update for my Nexus One, and it seems that there's absolutely no voice or video support in chat.
Other people on the forum seem to have confirmed this as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061270&page=2
It seems like a pretty lousy move from Google.
On their blog post:
http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2011/04/video-chat-on-your-android-phone.html
they specifically mention that Google Talk with video and voice chat will will launch on other devices in the future.
I can understand there not being video on the Nexus One, as there's no front-facing camera (although they could still support it, just with the rear camera...lol), but it seems like a pretty low move to leave the Nexus One in the dust like that with voice as well.
Does anybody know if this is perhaps a bug in the Nexus One update, or perhaps you need to do something to unlock the voice functionality?
Cheers,
Victor

Strange, because with just the normal gtalk app installed on my nexus one (2.3.3 CM7), i'm able to at least voice chat. A pretty lame move if it doesn't allow voice and video.

Seriously, no voice and no video. Google needs to just make a universal gtalk app and put it in the market. Oh well at least there are better alternatives on the market that work now like tango and yahoo messenger.

Has anyone tried manually adding the new talk/jingle lib? I doesn't seem like its included in the update. See here for a link/how to. I would start by copying JUST the lib (second to the last line)

Google just isn't going to bring video chat to phones without a FFC (they said so in the announcement which was pretty clear to me). It offers a pretty bad experience for the average user. Voice chat is certainly possible and there's no reason to not allow it. Hopefully they fix this in a future update and hopefully put chat in the market so they can update it more often.

Just use the app and lib from the Nexus S update. Problem solved.
I agree though that they should at least allow Voice Chat. The only reason I can think of for not doing it would be that it competes with Google Voice but considering that's only available in 2 countries in the world it's hardly what I'd call "widely available".

Yes, the slightly modified Talk2.apk and lib from the thread that we both linked to above works on the N1. There is no reason to only copy the lib as it would be useless without the apk since there is nothing in the old apk actually loading the lib and calling the functions it provides.

I wish I could say I used the Talk app and I cared about this... but I can't.

Yes! Who cares about gtalk I want bug fixes!!!

Cool! Do the 'other' things that didnt work in 2.3.3 work? Like being able to initiate a voice/video call from the pc? Or sending video?

Gapps 20110503 fixes everything. I can send video AND the other user can call me. Awesome!
CM7 nightly #60.

heya,
Hmm, interesting - so you're saying if I just install the gapps 20110503 package, I'll get Gtalk with voice/video support?
Do you mean the one from here?
http://goo-inside.me/gapps/
I'm on stock Android, and I'd like to stay that way for now. This package doesn't have any dependencies on CyanogenMod, does it? And it's not going to cause any other weirdness or breakages if I install that package, is it?
I thought that package was just the stock GoogleApps package that's split off as a separate download due to licensing restrictions - what difference is it to the one that's one my Nexus One 2.3.4 now?
Cheers,
Victor

I'm pretty sure you need to be rooted. I'm running CM7 nightly #60.

So that means that the hardware is capable of video chat for sure. we should write to google and ask the nexus team to give it to us, the official way!

It is 100% capable. Confirmed working on my N1.

I'm running a stock, rooted 2.3.4 OTA on my Nexus One and while it works, its only working on WiFi. Anyone else have this problem?
It says I need to be connected to WiFi to initiate a voice/video call. If someone else tries to initiate it, it'll tell me I missed a call because I wasn't on WiFi.
A buddy of mine has the Desire and its working fine on their 3G connection.

works fine here

works here too

I get the 'wifi required' message sometimes, but other times it works great.
Probably needs a good 3G/3.5G connection.

[Q] Skype will be the death of me [SOLVED]

I have a Nexus 7. I have root. No custom ROM; the most modding I did was adding a cool font. I have Skype. I have tried both the official version and the lasted SkypeMod. I have downloaded and run CameraLauncher.
Here's the problem: When I am in a video call, I can see the other person just fine AND I can see myself in the little box in the corner. However, the other person cannot see me. They just see a little circle going round and round like it's waiting for me to transmit.
I have verified all settings and that I can soot and record video. This is driving me mental and ANY help or thoughts that could lead me in the right direction are greatly appreciated in advance.
/onlyhalfthetime

have you tried re-installing the app?

try another video chatting application (Google+ Hangouts, GTalk) and see if they give the same issue. then youll know if its the app itself or some hardware issue

This is a good troubleshooting step and I will try it later today, but like I said I can see myself in the little box in the corner while skyping and I can run the camera app.
Thank you for your suggestions so far. I'll be back tonight with results.

I can't even get Skype to login here.

Rarely use skype but did try it on my rooted/stock nexus 7 and got exactly what you describe, video on nexus 7 but not on recipient's computer (only audio).

Could it be because you are rooted that causes the issue...... Like sky go you can only use if not rooted. Try using voodoo ota to temp hide root and then restart Skype.
Don't use Skype, not sure if affected by root. No harm in trying.

That is the version I am using too.
I realized today that I am a moron. I was only testing the Skype with one recipient. so, what if the problem was on their end?
Turns out, they were using a laptop with a mobile data card. I just used my wife's phone with the Skype app and all went well. video on both sides. :victory:
However!!! I need to continue testing because before I tried that I fund the advanced settings in SkypeMod that forces video calling! I checked Force-enable Video-calling, Force Camera Rotation, and Unlock Orientation.
Since I had to search high and low for someone with the same problem and no resolution, I understand how frustrating that can be. I will continue updating this thread and [SOLVED] it when I am satisfied that I got the answer for the people from the future.

New info!
The SkypeMod makes skype work on my rooted EVO 4G! that's a two year old phone. I had long since given up hope of using skype. This is awesome. That is all.
/onlyhalfthetime
P.S. When I'm not poor (I got the nexus 7 for Christmas, haters), I'm gonna throw the dev a few shekels. :good: :angel:

It was indeed the other person's issue. No one else could Skype him either. That was silly on my part. However, I did uninstall SkypeMod and reinstall the regular app and got no video with anyone. Maybe because I'm rooted? Using SkypeMod I was able to skype anyone and they could see my video. Just make sure you go into the advanced settings and force enable video.
What an awesome apk. I am still floored that it works on my EVO 4g!
Marked thread solved. Have a good one, gentlemen and ladies. :highfive:

[Q] Skype problem

Hello. Recently I bought a LG G2 than I updated it by Update Center. Now when I want to use a Skype mostly its not working.
When I call somebody I see his name on the top, but the screen is like a gradient background with nothing on it, and after that i see my wallpaper and its coming again to the skype contacts list. When somebody calls me, and I answer the call sometimes I see the previous scenario, but instead of the "wallpaper" I see the normal skype window during the call. I can hear the people, but they cannot hear me, also we see each others on the cams, but nobody can hears me. Only once a hundreds tries they can hear me properly.
I dont have an idea what is wrong. My phone is not rooted, bought it 1 week ago. And I think problem is not the hardware, but software. Hangouts are working fine, but not everybody has it. My software version is D80220d-EUR-XX.

Download the rar file, extract it somewhere and copy the 2 libs to your phone using adb push command.
