[android-developers] Re: Dev Phone and RC33 update

2009-02-27 Thread Robert Zaleski

I know for one I feel a bit misled.  I certainly expected it to
receive support going forward on a level with the G1, and other
devices from a software standpoint, including the Market.  I also
realize I can use it for much more. The lack of paid app support for
my device really ticks me off, and the fact that I can't test drive an
app with the ADP1 to see if I think I can improve upon it to build a
better one to compete, or if I should work on something else.  I
wouldn't be able to see apps at all, or comments without the site
someone made.  I certainly agree with Al.

We're all developers and understand the pressures and demands of the
job, I just couldn't beleive such a blatant oversight was possible.
If I had, I would have saved my $450, or invested it in an iPhone as I
was tempted to do last May (Include the additional payment for a
Mac).  But I really was excited about a linux based, open source, Java
Developed platform, so I waited.  I would still be waiting now since
picking up a second Cell Phone plan on T-Mobile wasn't something I was
prepared to do.  Like some others, this is a part time hobby outside
of my main job.  But the ADP1 was there, the Market was coming online
soon, and well, now it is, but I can't use it to test drive the
competition.  At least I can flash the phone to whatever I wan't ;-),
but I could do that with allot of other devices as well, including my
iPod.

  People buy ADP1 to develop apps for G1.

 Not necessarily. In fact, one can argue that is of secondary importance.

 As I understand it, the primary intent of ADP1 was to provide a hardware
 platform for firmware development.

 One can certainly debate whether the priority of the intended uses for
 ADP1 should have been more loudly proclaimed at the time of its release.

[android-developers] Re: Android North America 3G

2009-02-16 Thread Robert Zaleski

My friend runs a build of Android on his  HTC Tilt phone.  I wouldn't
say it's Production Ready but he makes calls on it and such.  I
think he also mentioned that the same group are working on the HTC
Touch Pro as well.  As I understand it this is just typical Open
Source hacking.  He has made calls, SMS, and has a data connection
(May just be Edge) on it.  If you googled around I would think you
could find more info on builds and such.  I can get details Tuesday if
no one else posts them and you want them.  He runs Windows Mobile and
starts up an app that takes over the phone and loads android.

 As interested as I am in Android on my next smart phone, there doesn't
 seem to be one available with North American 3G (ie, UMTS 850/1900).
 Which will be the first to have Android ported?  HTC Touch Pro, SE
 Xperia X1a, Toshiba TG01 ... and feel free to before  after WMC'09.

 TIA and cheerios from the Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland Canada  :)

[android-developers] Re: some problems with permission when using adb-G1

2009-02-16 Thread Robert Zaleski

I don't use adb to connect to my phone, but if I use the terminal I
can su to root on ADP1 in the terminal app form the market.  If you do
'su'enter at the prompt you'll suddenly be able to do other stuff.
It doesn't prompt for a password which I haven't figured out how to
set it, but I can suddenly kill all the procs and such.  It's also
something to keep in mind if you hand your phone to someone as well.
