I have been watching these forums about the DNA for a while as I wait for the release of the J Butterfly in Japan.
It should be available from some time after the 10th of Dec.
I see that the DNA doesn't have an option to remap the hardware buttons to new functions. For example people getting angry about the 'recent apps' button not being able to be changed to a menu/recent apps on hold for example.
I really hope unlocking/rooting and all of these cool mods/roms will be made to work with the J Butterfly.
It seems that a nice hack/mod was released that made it possible. But I just did some searching and found that the options seems to be built into the menu normaly in the Japanese J Butterfly. Take a look at the linked image I provide here.

This also appears to be the safe mode info. Is this phone s-off from retail? I'm no programmer, what does that mean for potential of this phone?
The n butterfly probably has the remap option built in, no one really knows why the DNA doesn't.
And that specific phone is s-off, but that doesn't mean the shipped devices will be s-off.

Yea its strange that the DNA doesn't have an option for remapping.
You are right, that phone could be just a J Butterfly demo unit.
But who knows, if it is s-off, that would be good right?
I'm not really sure what that would allow one to do?

It won't ship with s off, since that would make HTC more liable if you mess something up. But you'll likely be able to officially unlock it.

The UKB rom(I think that's the name) has the button remap in it.
Good work!,very thanks a lot!

Hey guys, i got an idea for an interested dev. I dont have a android phone yet, but I've been lurkin around here for a while and have learned a lot from all you guys.
Now, i for one know people who go through others phones. Needless to say, it is annoying. I have an idea to con these guys out of there snooping.
Its a lock screen app that implicates both that we know already, the standard bar swiping one

and the combo one
I was thinking maybe we could get an app that let you swipe the bar, like if it was going to open it, but then act like if nothing happened. To actually unlock it, you would put the combo in invisibly, either by swiping through specific sectors, as if the screen were a grid.
This is my idea to you devs for a safer phone.
I like this idea. Would be a good April fools trick too.

hahaaha, i know right. just hope a dev is willing to do it.
Can't imagine it would be that hard since both items are already built.

Hmm well on cyanogenmod you can just hide the "dots" on the Pattern-lock. I use it currently. My current background is black, so that's why it's all black. It's just an extra security measure. Anyone without an android phone wouldn't really know what to do considering it doesn't even show the "Incorrect pattern" message (which you can turn on or off).
Note that this is the normal pattern lock with just everything hidden (except for the cyanogenmod message at the top, which can be turned off/changed to something else.) There's no slide-unlock then pattern-unlock, just pattern-unlock.

Don't know if any have tried it, but it works on cm7. You can't search for other artists (apparently, when google found out about the leak, they shut down the servers..(for both down load and streaming).
But the app by itself is nifty enough to make me want to use it instead if the native music app. It has a nice iphone-like flow-search (or whatever that's called).
Check out my screen shots below. I dont have much music on my phone now (so no cracks about the sound of music track I have in there), but you can get an ideas of what it looks like.
I would upload it for you guys, but I don't know where it is on my phone. I installed it, and then opened it immediately. When I tried looking around on the SDcard, I couldn't find it anywhere.
But just search here in xda under "honeycomb music app leaked" or similar.
Edit : I don't think it works in Froyo.
Edit: anyone know why these screen shots are blurry? they look fine in my gallery....??? [when I try to upload them to this thread, tapatalk takes over--(which I presume is the xda app), so I think something is getting screwed up st that point.. And I am not near a working computer at the moment

Then how come its not used in any roms? Or at least more frequently used. I have been playing with it for 2 days, and it is a fast nicer music app them the old one.
How long ago was this originally leaked? From everything I have read (which could be wrong I guess), this music app is for honeycomb and is going to be part of google's anticipated entry into music to compete with the iPhone/iPod. It can't be that old.

hello to all genius
My phone HTC desire was stolen month ago and today i noticed from play.google.com that this phone is ON and being used and i am able to install any app. So my question is ,, Is there any way that i can install a app from play.google.com and i can see his location or phone number?
Please help me i m sure you guys definitely have answer for that case.
thanks

I believe Lookout Security app has a location feature. Im not positive on that though. The problem is that even if you got the app to install, you would need to set the software up, which you can't do because you physically need the phone. Hmmmm.

Maybe a useful topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642444
There is an app which you install (from play store) as long as your phone is not wiped, and it will start feeding location. I'm afraid I can't remember what's it called, but some googling should help you find it.
Edit. App is called Plan B.

Call your carrier and maybe the police

I have used the App called Plan B, and it works. But after you get the info you need I would call your carrier, They should blacklist the ESN so the dirtbag who took your phone can't use it.
Really sorry to hear your phone got stolen but as so many users said, there are many apps that can solve your issue. But you should contact the police if you have his number. What phone will be its replacement?

Please visit the Play Store and download it for free. If you like it, please leaving me a rating. If it crashes (fingers crossed), please send me a bug report. I am an active dev who's hobby it is to improve my apps daily, I look forward to your reviews.
Thanks!
Its a neat idea, but none of those reviews strike me as legit. Especially the one from "Autom8r".

Haha, the one from Autom8r is me, of course, I gotta plug my own app. The rest, are legit.
But regardless, do YOU like it? What could I do better?
If your wondering why you have a single response only, its because your in the wrong thread... Nice app, nonetheless!

I like the idea and the UI a lot with one exception: the 'Edit Savings Plan' screenshot displays both icons ('Accept' and 'Cancel') on a hard-to-read, definitely 'do not click here!' red background.
Also, both icons seem to "weigh" the same, when one of them ('Accept') should be a call to action type (you can create subtle call to action buttons by increasing their contrast)

I just stumbled upon a nifty little feature that I don't remember seeing mentioned anywhere before. At first, I thought it was an Android "L" developer preview feature, but low & behold, I just tried it on my HTC One & sure enough it is live there as well.
At any rate, I am curious when Google implemented this feature? I don't know if it was in one of the many GMS/Play Store updates, or if it has been there all this time & I just missed it somehow.
Give it a try, if you haven't. Just go into apps, select the "all apps" tab & long press any app that is not installed already. It will put the device into multiple selection mode, where you can select & install multiple applications much easier than selecting individual apps & pressing install for each one. Sure, it's not as easy as using TB or another backup utility, but for those of us that are bumping between KK & Android "L", where most system & data restore apps don't work yet due to context changes, it definitely saves a little time.
I am interested to know if you can do this on any JB or ICS device too. Try it out & let me know.

I think it was implemented some updates ago, not many but. 2-3 back I think.
It doesn't matters what OS version you have, Play Store and Services go on their own way so I think anyone can get it.
