Can someone with a Shift help me out - app test - EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hiya -
Got an email from someone saying that they have a problem with my app which has been tested on quite a few devices and emulators but someone with a Shift is having a problem.
Not sure if it's specific to the phone, or firmware (guy is running 2.2) but if someone would be so kind as to download my (free) app and hit the trail map button and let me know what happens, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks guys!

Okay, so I've separated it out a bit...anyone want to help out again and try this:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.snyamathi.PublicTest&feature=more_from_developer
Obviously, I can't modify my published app, this is just the activity in question packaged into a new app.
Thanks again!!

Okay, made one more change - can ya test v3?
It's possible that the shift handles outofmemory errors differently, not really sure but that's what im thinking at the moment

Working..only thing is when I zoom the picture doesn't resize so I can't read text or really see trails but yea its working
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App

yeah, I reduced the image size from something like 3000x2000 to about 800x600
I was catching out of memory errors and then increasing the image scaling and retrying to load the image but it seems like the Shift is doing something different when the OutOfMemoryError is thrown. The code looks something like this:
Code:
try {
imageOptions.inSampleSize = sampleSize;
mBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.map, imageOptions);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
sampleSize *= 2;
// and then try to open again
}
Any suggestions?

I've been looking at this since around 7 this morning and I can't figure out what's missing..I'm puzzled and its driving me nuts lol...this problem is only on the shift or do you have the same problem on the evo also?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App

I'm not sure really - just got an email from someone with an Evo Shift but I don't know about other phones. My hypothesis is that the Shift is catching OutOfMemory Errors before I can, but I have nothing to back this up. You're still getting the same black screen and then the activity closes?
Thanks for taking the time to help, much appreciated.

Not with the update 3 I think was the one I d/l it was just that I couldn't read the image
Sent from my HTC Knight using XDA App

Yeah, v3 of the test just uses a much smaller image. So that means all the code for displaying the image, zooming, pannibg, etc. works fine. The error is in loading the full ~3000x2000 px image (in the zip file link or on the actual Mammoth app).

Have you posted in the evo forum to see if they have the same problem..they might not cause the res is bigger but id try there and with the hero section to see if either have problems or if its just the shift

Desire Lockscreen

The GSM Hero guys have it working, figured it's probably a fairly easy port for someone.
Original thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=676259
The working(for them) update.zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6806909&postcount=25
Example video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vfXrqa0UwY @ 1:01
The Desire Lockscreen when swiped down slides only the bar, not the entire wallpaper+bar which results in a much nicer looking unlock.
Anyway we could get this ported over? I'm running Fresh 2.3.3.
EDIT: I tried pushing it via ADB. It works, technically. Only the bar slides down. However the graphics are all buggy But it is much smoother!
probably cause its a higher res app. Needs to be reduced to what the lockscreen app in our roms are at. Meaning resize the pngs in the app to match the size of our lower Res lockscreen app
whats so special bout the lockscreen?

No i was with him. I watched the video and didn't see anything special. For the time it took you to type this you could have simply told him what the difference was.
The difference is...in the desire it pulls just the lock bar down. Not the picture as well.
I would be interested in this.

I believe the original post covers the features of the lock screen. So he could have read it.

I guess I do not know how to take this comment. I would like to think you are actually thanking me for pointing something out, but it definitely appears to be sarcasm. At any rate, I was simply pointing out that the features had been listed in text, and that if someone watches the video and doesn't understand maybe it's time for said person to read the description.
Thanks.

Wow this thread got real crazy real fast Anyways imo I think that since it's just the htc lockscreen in the update zip than i'm gonna guess that is whats going to need to be changed. I adb pushed it and although it is really crazy I still like it.

Question about "sharing"...

1st post and let me start by thanking everyone for all the excellent contributions to the community that help us realize the potential of our Cappy!
I finally flashed my first rom, Andromida 1.0, and I am astounded by the results. I essentially have a new phone now!
One thing I haven't been able to figure out is that youTube no longer shows up as an option to share when I attempt to share a video. It seems that the OS does not see that the app is installed. I have uninstalled, reinstalled several times in hopes that it will be recognized but it has not worked.
Any ideas?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
As far as I know, the share option should be visible in portrait mode and located in the upper right hand corner of the screen. There should be a pulldown menu with 'share' in it.
i can confirm that youtube is not showing up in the share options. this was not be design by us, but as far as i know, like this in standard armani captivate. we will have a look and see if something is missing. one of those things we didnt notice during development.
Would an alternate mediauploader.apk work or is it missing altogether?
All I have is the Sign Out button available. I wonder if it is a setting within my youTube account that is causing this.
When I was running stock 2.1 I would have the option to "Share" a video from within the camera app or video player app. When I would press "Share" a list of apps would pop up and I could choose how I wanted to upload the file... Email, Gmail, Handsent, Whatsapp, youTube. Now youTube is no longer listed.... hmmmm
I'm stumped...
Thanks for your reply!

[app] [sms notification] keylights

Notice * all credit goes to TheJza over at sdx
This was an app my wife used on her moment to flash the lights across the bottom. I could have sworn that I tried it when i first bought my evo and it didn't work. Well I tried again today and tada!
The reason behind needing it is that I can't see the led from across the room even with the wimax notifier. Now it gets my attention.
I have not tested the affect on battery yet. Or what roms it works with. Im on evokings shift need for speed rom now and it works. Please test and feedback.

I just tested it on my wifes shift rooted with a stock rom and it works. sooo thats
2.3.3 shift rom on the evo (Evokings need for speed and misfits speedy)
2.1 shift rom on the shift
CM7 on the Shift
Evervolv on The Shift

I don't think its gingerbread related. The shift rom is 2.3.3. Try sending yourself a text but make sure you have the screen off or the box checked for screen on. Also cup your hands around the keys if its bright out as they are not bright. I have mine set to flash and thought it didn't work just now. Also have mine set to timeout after 1 hour.
I just tried it out on misfits speedy odex rom and it works ... thx for this!

This app has been un supported for a while. maybe one of the fine devs here could make that happen. I looked into reverse engineering last night but my eyes kinda glazed over. way over my head.

Can you do the theme from phoenix rom for heinz 57 (with 2fast's permission of course). It looks so awesome but i just cant seem to stay stable on phoenix for the life of me.
What issue is it that you can't get stable with? As gas's rom was built from the same thing mine is. Along with the fact he has even went to putting some of the same stuff in it.
The only issue as of right now is swype which I know what it is. I just have to get that far.
