Good news !!! Thx

Is there really no one who cares about the Wiki

You do a great job! I just miss a link to the cube customization thread. beside of that i have no idea to improve it.

how about a decent explanation of the different types of spl and what they would be used for, also a list of any settings you would net to take a note of before flashing a new rom, eg server settings for mms,

stupid marketing description...still doesn't know what this update will do...

this hotfix news has been posted lots of times, and non of them is useful. the links are not working at the moment, doesnt matter which country u r from. so unless u r posting a working link, please use search first.

None of the links provided at HTC page work.

Check if a thread about hotfixes (and other important stuff) already exists before you post it otherwise we'll get 100 threads about it.

I've saw no thread about that in HTC Leo's subforum. So i posted it. After that, I've saw one subject in Leo themes and applications but sorry, an HTC's official update has nothing to do in themes & applications. It's not a theme, neither an apps.
I thing this subject is in the good category and to be hoenst, I haven't got the idea to look in Themes & Apps if somebody has posted it or not, because it has nothing to do with this section.

Lancelot's right. The other thread should be deleted as it's in the wrong forum. This is the correct place for it.

Links now work from UK site at least

It originally was placed in this subforum and someone moved it.
But I agree with you this subforum is better.

link is now working from Europe 2 server. camera utility has been updated to v6.26 (B 1922.1732).
nothing new that i can see so far. doesnt include the 8Mpx superfine registry tweak for those who are interested.

Android - Share Contacts by SMS - [2011-03-20]

I was fascinated by Google Android platform and about one year ago I bought my first Android phone (HTC Magic). Well the platform was not that much mature at that time and my phone was lacking many features. With time it matured and evolved. After waiting a long time and spending a lot of hours to search a application which could send business cards and receive them as well, I couldn't find one which could fulfill my needs. So I decided to create one for me.

This AWESOME! Its seems to be working flawlessly on my Nexus One on CM7 nightly rom. Will update more observations soon. God bless you for this.
Aside : I wish others with programming skills would make such amazingly meaningful apps instead of eye candy themes. I hope I learn android programming soon.

Can I see your permissions from your manifest file? LOL

why you need that ?.... anyway... here is list of permission:
android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
android.permission.READ_CONTACTS
android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS
android.permission.READ_SMS

Contact saved from received vcard goes into 'phone only, unsynced' group. This cannot be synced with Gmail.
Can you please provide options to choose where/which account to save the contact in?
This would make it perfect!!

pkg: /data/local/tmp/aha_signed.apk
Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION]
tried to resing the apk, dosent help at all..
google about that and found that may be:
android:versionName="1.1"
can lead to problems (something about digit, which is not understood as digit etc...)
How can i modify AndroidManifest.xml ? ( i have found java -jar AXMLPrinter2.jar , which can "decode" it, but did not found how to "encode" it )
p.s. trying of android 2.1 (aka eclair) "stock" version

I think you have installed earlier version and now you are trying to install it without un-installing it.
try this:
adb install -r aha_signed.apk
if it doesn't work then un-install it manually and then try...
Good luck

sorry, that didn't mention that
it is first install
have tried the reinstall option too

Hey, another request.
Am using this on Nexus One with a CM7 Nightly Tom.
Currently you need to scroll to select the contact you wish to send.
I use the search key, it pops up, but it does not register any entries and therefore cannot find the specific contact.
Can you please include a search option?
Thanks.

There is very easy work around for this.
Open Contacts App -> search contract -> menu -> share -> select "Share Contact" app -> You get the contact in "Share contacts" Application
Please let me know if it works for you

[REQ] 3.2 System Dump

There are some Galaxy Tab 10.1 floating around with 3.2 on them (i.e. Korean, some repaired ones, etc) I thought it would be helpful if we can get a system dump to the great developers on this forum. So, here is what to do:
1. Check what version you have:
Settings - About Tablet
Look for Android Version 3.2
What build number are you on?
2. If you have Android version 3.2:
Install the android SDK (developers.android.com)
Start CMD
On your tablet: Setting -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging (Check)
Connect your tablet with your pc
Let windows find your tablet
Back to cmd console: adb pull /system
The full system dump shall be in YOUR_SDK_FOLDER\tools\system
3. Post to Mega Upload, Dropbox, etc (I would suggest just providing the link to developers. i.e. ask them to PM you for the link)
Thanks!!!

Well, mine is out for service right now so if they're doing it in the U.S. I'll have it next week (I hope). I'm all over it.

I believe Task already got the dump from advocator

If so, that's a good news. Maybe we can see a 3.2 rom tomorrow.

hahaha, I would assume it would take more time than that. Can anyone else confirm this? I wouldn't mind messing around with the dump as I learn more about rom development.

T mobile US galaxy tab is released with Android 3.2 and i think it can be flashed normally to the GT-p7500 so does any one have the tmobile us tab ?

Thanks brother, but no need, Task 650 released his 3.2 rom in the development section. But for future reference, nandroid contains all your data as well as the system. A system dump only contains the system information that can be used to build a rom.

Does anyone know if the firmware is compatible with European 3G tabs? Task only has wifi firmware, so this is still interesting for the ones who have 3G tabs.
If you could check two files for me, maybe we can get the firmware from Samsung servers.
Please post the contents of:
system\CSCVersion.txt
system\csc\customer.xml only this line <SalesCode>?</SalesCode>
And from Settings > About
Baseband version and Build number.

will thatrom work with the tmobile galaxy tab 10.1? i havent found anyroms that work with the tmobile version

Hi,
There are some more thread opened about this 3.2 (P7500 / P7510) !
Don't you think we could get it with FUS ?
Can you please share HIDSWVER.
- connect tab to KIES
- With regedit check HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\7
- share Model Name, ProductCode and HIDSWVER
Moreover, what do you think about openning a new thread where everybody share Model Name, ProductCode and HIDSWVER ?

I did try this yesterday, I got the required information from Tasks P7510jkkj1 Rom but it didn't find anything on Samsung servers. So either Task changed the information in Rom or this firmware is not on Samsung servers.
There reportedly is also a P7500 dump, but the source doesn't want to share it with me. I also asked for the required information but he didn't want to share that either.
Overcome Rom developer has this dump also, but he also doesn't want to share it. I guess they just want to be the first ones who release it, to get all the fame, that's why they don't want to share it, so we just have to wait.

List of available ROMs for Atrix

Hi everyone,
In the French Atrix community we have a Google Spreadsheet to stay informed about the various ROMs available. I thought it might be a good idea to share it world-widely
Link : this online file
Rules : open to anyone with the link, read/write
Explanations :
- First sheet is changelog and some explanations for the ROM list (please keep it up-to-date, especially when you delete something)
- Second sheet is the ROM list itself, with links, versions, technical details, and comments (currently in French, but this can change)
Questions : Do you think it would be helpful ? Do you already have such a tool ? Are you willing to involve in this ? Do you have better ideas ?
PS : I'm not the owner of the file on Google Drive, but I asked him and he's okay with sharing it with you

Merci ! =)
Edit : Wow ! It's full of useful infos about the ROMs... Even the bench scores, great idea, tell me if you need some help to fill it ! =)

Nobody interested ? I see many many views on this thread, but no reaction of non-French people... What's the problem ? Thanks for your reactions

Ben euh, c'est moi ou le fichier a été vidé ?
It seems rather empty. What happened ?

For me the file is fully available, and I tried the URL while not being logged in me Google account. That's weird... :s

Click on ROMs to the bottom left corner.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA

you forgot Epsilon project v5...

The file is pub
Sent from my MB860 using XDA

Some people broke it, do you have a backup ? You should make it private.

yea, i dont see any roms there =(

Sorry for my previous post, my Atrix's touchscreen is dying...
I was saying : the file is public and everybody can read/write, and I am not its owner (so please don't ask me to keep it up-to-date). This file is a community tool, it is FOR us all and BY us all, so :
Feel free to add/update/remove ROMs, versions, benchmark results, or comments
If some people delete some useful information (purposely or not), feel free to restore previous versions of the entire file (yeah, Google Docs can do that)

some people have messed with your xda links
the cm7 goes to an samsung epic thread and cm7 ics mod is a pornlink

Thank you

Someone ruined it, who did this deleted all the pages and made 200 blank ones... I think it's time we came up with something different...

Something different would be less opened and would require someone to be in charge of it. If anyone got an idea to get this tool more secure but not relying on a couple of administrators, feel free to suggest it
Today some major changes on the file :
- ROMs are now splitted in 2 sheets (Gingerbread ROMs, ICS ROMs)
- A new sheet explains the different installers (Aroma, Kitchen Sink, etc.). Thanks to Slymayer

merci beaucoup
Nice list with useful info.

The wiki has been up for quite some time. Wish the forum specific mods kept the link in the sticky
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Motorola_Atrix_4G

I didn't know XDA Wiki , thanks for re-sharing it. It's a good tool, but not everyone is a XDA member... Our Google Spreadsheet was born and feeded from an other Android community, and we want to keep it that way...

Glad to see the google doc is still being updated as of 10/26/2012. That's the problem with storing information like this in a thread, nobody would even realize this doc exists. Someone should link it on the wiki
