[Q] 2.3 Update and BT HID - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I seen the HTC Sensation supports bluetooth HID. Think the Dinc will be getting HID with the coming update?

no not possible since the htc sensation runs gingerbread with sense 3.0 over it which is what has the integrated BT HID which is not what the incredible will probably get with its gingerbread sense 2.1 or original sense.

I see. I assume evo 3d is also sense 3. That's a real let down. Think we will see the feature ported in the future. I've never really figured out the problem. I've read its dependent on the kernal but the framework must also be altered. But it doesn't seem like it'd he that hard to incorporate a few drivers
For a seasoned developer I mean

Seriously?
You do realize that the HTC Legend runs HTC Sense? We already have a great theme for that. It's called HTC Sense and it comes with every HTC Hero out there.

yes iknow that but i would like to have the ui in settnings and like friendstream
watch video "Hands-on with the HTC Legend and the aluminum unibody" on youtube
Any 2.1 rom should have that menu and the friendstream is an app when someone gets hold of the .apk for it then that should be possible as well.
thanks for the infO

We won't be able to theme something like FriendStream, but like mentioned above, there will be an APK for it.
Within minutes of the Legend being released we will have a system dump. It won't be long.
I am also waiting a lot for the dev's to get the ROm of the HTC Desire and Legend and adapt it for Hero!
I am so excited to get all these new features ( i don't care about the stupid pinch to see desktops, but the copy-paste , Bluetooth audio on 2.1 ROM, the new contact widgets, etc..)
Villain is really nice but still buggy and i am sure it will get really better when he will get the Legend/Bravo sources!
im hoping its soon its a really nice UI !!
I'm looking forward to this as well. Does villain have good 3d gaming? i havent tried his yet because of this.

You do know we can already copy and paste don't you? Bluetooth audio works on some 2.1 roms already and so does the new contact widget and even pinch zoom on desktop. Currently the only real thing we are missing is the friend stream.

No it does have problems with this but that's more due to the files we have available than how he has made the rom, we need a more complete htc 2.1 rom before this will work properly

He won't get the Legend/Bravo sources! Android 2.1 is already available AOSP, and the HTC stuff is closed source.
To be honest, I rather expect the Hero update to be pretty much everything that will be on the Legend, so the real issue here is which will come first - the Legend or the Hero 2.1 update?

Dave

Even that works on 2.1 sense based roms

He probably meant that the copy and paste feature have been much improved since 1.5, if you watch the presentation of the new HTC phones.
In about a month, we're getting the same Sense update..
For the who wants to know:
The new ROM is already compiled for the Nexus one and works 99%.
I really hope that once it's OK for the N1, we will get it for the Hero!

This doesn't make any since because you want a 2.1 sense ROM that will also be given to the Hero?
The work making a rom based off of the Legend is pointless since it would be the same thing your getting.

Exactly, people don't seem to be understanding this point.
Also about 80-85% of the features are also available on custom roms (albeit maybe a little buggy until we get the real thing)

www.htcsense.com Working :D

Just wanted to let you guys know that the site is already working. Enjoy it.
Thx, I will try it now.

Only has options for Desire Z and Desire HD... not Standard Desire
they said that first supported devices would be those, we will have to wait
Well but since i have a desire hd rom in my desire i already tried it. Kinda cool ringing the phone and knowing where it is thru the site... also i can see missed calls and incoming messeges. Htc scores again
"Desire" is what started it all, they should have enabled it for the standard desire first
Needs Sense 2.0 to work, the HD and Z have HTC Hub apps in them which connect to HTCSense.com
Fingers crossed for the next OTA for original Desire to have Email fix for Hotmail EAS and Sense 2.0 then...
has it been said us Desires users will get it?
I've read at several sites that HTC have confirmed that the original Desire will get Sense 2.0 in a OTA update soon... I really hope it's true... But I won't cry if we don't get it because I think Sense already rocks the way it is! and if I ever get sick of it there are always alternatives like launcher pro and etc...

I don't know where you get this from, but in fact some people are already running the desire hd with sense 2.2 on their original desires. Can't see why an official update for the Desire "won't fit"

Probably because they
1. are using the sd card to install the ROM
2. have removed a bunch of useful/needed stuff (like 4 from 5 sense themes) to make it fit in the device itself.
I hope we can get a custom rom that will integrate Sense 2. I don't need the official OTA. Community ROM's are far better. Would like to see a new LeeDroid with Sense 2.
Of course they could get sense 2 to fit on, this is HTC, the company that can pull rabbits from out of their arses. It doesn't have to be the same version as the HD, but supporting htcsense.com would be magic!
i've sense hd......contact,messages and foot print work.....positioning ring and block doesn't work......someone ave this working??

[Q] Wanted: Bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo for PS3, PC & EVO w/Sense ROM

I would like to put a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo on my Christmas wishlist that will work with all 3 devices listed in the subject line. I have searched this forum but not found a good solution. I will consider all sizes but close to full size is preferable. It does not need to fold.
Anyone have any input?
This would rock.. So I'm curious too...

[Q] Now that the 4G shift is out...

Is it going to be possible to get the landscape sense on the EVO? Is it even possible since we dont have a keyboard?

Not sure! I just figured since it was out that the souce may have been to. Wishful thinking!

Not so sure. The HD Desire has landscape but the EVO has no way to trigger landscape mode. Landscape is triggered on the Shift when the keyboard is slid out. My suggestion before was to create an icon or use the G-Sensor but the code would have to be altered to except this.
I was thinking the same exact thing last night, that I was surprised there had been no ports, considering that the RUU was floating around.
I'm no dev, but in theory it should work better than a Desire Z or HD port, because it would start with a CDMA ROM, and should have WiMax (although I don't know if the same 4G chipset is in both the Evo and the Shift)...
but we better leave it to the experts

[Q] anyone?

Will 2.3 have better bluetooth? I ask because I would like to go back to sense but only if I can use a wiimote for my emulators.
+1
Would love to know if anyone can get a hid keyboard to work on a newer version of sense, which I believe is the problem, not android 2.2 or 2.3.

I believe I read somewhere that the new Sense 3.0 that will be on the Evo 3D will have HID bluetooth, finally. If that's true, in theory, a wiimote controller or hid keyboard should work. I'm not 100% sure on that information, but I'm pretty sure I read it somewhere in the recent past.

I've successfully linked my BT HID based keyboard with cm7.
I haven't tried the leaked rom as I don't intend to run it anyways. AFAIR, the issue was with the 2.2 stack not containing a HID profile. I can't recall if this was the case with aosp 2.2 also, or just 2.2 in general.
