ok for starters im pretty sure im not doin this right but i wanted to throw an idea at anyone who would take the time to read/listen for upgrades to come if it cant make the cut for the next one. I would like to see this done in an upgrade instead of an app only because i feel that this is somthin everyone would enjoy. BIG PICTURES i feel that When ur favorite contacts/friends call and u have a customized ring tone and possibly an assigned contact photo would it be askin to much to utilize the 3.2-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen with 320 x 480 (HVGA) resolution for that photo. Very simple yes i know however we are limited to that small picture with out even being givin the option as to weather you' like it that small or not.
just a thought i've had for some time now that i wanted to share thanks for listening follow android but more specificly G1 users On Thu, Nov 12, 2009 at 11:51 AM, Sean Liao <[email protected]> wrote: > === copy and pasted === > We only auto-pair using 0000 when: > 1.) the remote device looks like a headset > 2.) the user initiated the connection request through Bluetooth Settings > > 2 questions to the above: > 1.)
