What can this code do for you: *#*#4636#*#* - EVO 4G General

Open up the Dialer Pad and Press...
*#*#4636#*#*
This Code will brings you to a Screen where you can basically play around with a few Different Secret-Settings, such as Battery, WIFI, Ping Testing and other Radio Features!
I don't know if this will help some there, but I thought, this is worth mentioning

I interpreted "...not really useful to anyone but HTC." to mean anyone with Samsung or Motorola or whatever phones would have no use for it. It says it is not useful to anyone but HTC. I disagree. It is useful to me, and I am not HTC.

This is a forum for an htc phone so it is safe to make the assumption we are generally taking about htc related things.

It is not safe to make that assumption. For example, I got here having done a search for info on the *#*#4636#*#* code.

swype for android

http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/12/15/swype-android-video/
its out, now to figure out how to get it?
Here's how to get it
http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/12/30/how-to-get-swype-on-android/
But looks like it onbly works on WVGA screens, which rules out (i think) my HTC Magic :-(
If any devs here can get it working on HTC Magic, Hero , etc PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
yep, it only works on the droid unfortunately. I want it to get ported over to our phones. I think it's a really unique typing interface and to be able to do 50 words a minute as it claims would be awesome.

At the bottom of the article that was first posted, it says it would be a great app for the HTC Magic. Maybe it does work?

you have to modify it to get it to work. I tried it yesterday when i first heard it came out. It installs, but the keyboard does not come up and it displays an error message saying that the screen resolution is too small for it.
Shouldn't be too hard to do then, right? I mean, now there's Android devices with different size screens, App developers have to program for that sort of stuff. Couldn't they just modify the code in this one? Or is that not allowed seeing as though it's not open source?

I guess we shall see, right? Someone will probably still do it even though it's not open source. The only one that actually follows the rules is Cyanogen; you don't see anyone else who cares about the cease and desist cuz it wasn't given to them.
Let's keep our fingers crossed that it'll happen soon!

Samsung i5700 hacked for multitouch, what does that mean for the X10?

Following on from THIS thread which raises a valid point imo...
The Galaxy Spica (also known as the i5700) has been blessed with multitouch support in some homebrew drivers that are making their way into homebrew kernels for homebrew ROMs, despite the official line that said phone doesn't support more than one finger at a time. Really drives home the point that "support" can refer both to the hardware's capability and the manufacturer's willingness to maximize it, doesn't it?

thought hardware cant support more than 1 finger at a time so regardless of what devs can come up with, its not gonna work??
or has someone identified what panel the x10 is using and im talking nonsense?

To my knowledge no one has discovered what model the touch panel is. Right now the official word from SE is that the hardware doesn't support it.

As far as i am concerned, i dont really care if we get MT or not. But i dont see why SE would release their top end android phone without putting a MT capable digitizer on it, whether they enable MT or not. Maybe they know it is capable but never enabled it because of copyright issues with crapple.
This is just another pointless thread, When we crack the boot loader and can put on Custom Roms we will find out if its a yes or a no, till then we can all debade the meanings of life and all the other types to topics that are there to waste time.

It might be, in your opinion, the point of the thread is to highlight that another handset of which it's maker said MT wasn't available now actually is thanks to a developer, so there just might be a possibility that other handsets sold with no MT support might not necessarily be because of a hardware issue.

they have to say something, if it supports, SE wont launch drivers for it so soon... Without know the model of the panel, no way to know.

I just love how you refer to it everytime without fail, as crapple.
I think the best way is asking a SE dev if x10 supports MT
Maybe SE will enable it on 2.1 if the hardware supports it....

Telus screen?!

I have a telus htc vogue with a broken screen, anyone know where I might find one? Out of pure boredom i would like to get it working.
Unfortunately they don't seem to have parts lying around for this device these days. A peek through craigslist showed that there are used htc touch's out there anywhere from $40-100 depending on the condition. Because the screen is one of those unwarrantied things that likely are expensive to repair/replace, I'm guessing it's almost better to replace?

Hey jamezelle,
I have a Vogue with a broken power button (in the main board) laying around. If you just need the screen, I can sell it to you for like $10 + shipping. The device works great otherwise, I just haven't got the time to fix this thing...

there are three different screen manufactures for the vogue screen meaning different drivers. i don't remember the manufacturers names off hand, but i know dzo's android kernel auto detects which screen you have and then uses the appropriate driver.

Although I agree the bootup animation is from older versions of Android, It's clearly 2.x+ as shown at 1:20 by the lwp, phone app instead of dialer, and a few other apps in the drawer.

There are a couple of "clicks" involved, but nothing to technical. It's not really "official' but it's the closest you are probably going to get for now.

p.s. if this isn't what you want or need just give it a little while and it will start popping up.
