Managed to add in the must-have-feature-for-me-personally, CM's VolumeButton-Music-Controls, which when screen-off and music playing, long press volume-up to skip to next track, and long press volume-down to restart current track. Also works for other music players like MIUI Music, Pandora, etc.

Turn it on/off in Evervolv Settings > Lockscreen Settings (see below)

Summary of my additions (mostly from CM7) to the already awesome Evervolv-Perdo-v1.1.0b3

VolumeButton-Music-Controls

Button-backlight fix

DSPManager + libcyanogen-dsp

FM Radio

jyxent's Wonk fix

SavagedZen kernel

misc optimizations to build.prop & dvm

DOWNLOAD FROM MEDIAFIRE

Props to Evervolv team for making such an awesome ROM!!!

This might be a dumb question, but I cannot for the life of me find the option to change the launcher style back to stock gingerbread. I know it says in the new Launcher preferences but I can't find that anywhere! Welp!
[Nexus One Android Development] ch33kybutt:
Didn't like that the lockscreen music controls only worked for stock music player. So used similar code for volumebutton-music-control to enable lockscreen music controls to work with other music players, such as MIUI music, etc.

Latest Evervolv kang with above fix is HERE
[Nexus One Android Development] MaximReapage:
Awesome. I will give it a whirl, sir.
[Nexus One Android Development] RReeD:
Any uptade?
[Nexus One Android Development] ch33kybutt:
No changes to Evervolv sources (https://github.com/evervolv) since 11 July. But I'm sure that the team will continue to work hard at improving this awesome ROM. I need a really stable ROM with minimal problems at this point in time, and I don't really want to go through all the hard work of creating an AOSP ROM from scratch, so really appreciate the work of the Evervolv team, and will be sticking with them for a while.
[Nexus One Android Development] qipengart:
Awesome underrated ROM for my N1!
[Nexus One Android Development] Gablu:
Just downloaded it.. Will give it a try and will be sharing my experience :-)

::EDIT::

So after an hour of use I switched back to CM7.1...

I wont say the ROM is not good, It is very good the over all theme and simplicity r wonderful.

Having said that some of the options were removed from SMS settings.

No ROM manager installed.

and yeah Talkback keyboard was a real pain, I did a mistake by applying it and then it started giving me constantly force close error.

May b as a noob im not satisfied with the cons but overall I personally liked it and therefore gave it a try.

Indeed waiting for the stable version and looking forward to it.:-)
[HD7 General] JCUK89:
Hey guys,

this is going to sound horrible. Earlier on today, I unlocked my hd7 using chevron. Afterwards I was trying to enable tethering, but as I could not get it to work, I got fed up and reseted the device. Unfortunatelly, I did not change the mode from HTC modem back to Zune. Now, the app that allows the tethering is gone and the phone wont connect to zune anymore. Is there any way to resolve that??

Thanks a lot.

[HTC Aria General] vis0nz:
I was curious if there was anyway to use a lockscreen other than the ones provided with CM7 (which is what I'm currently using). And where would I go about finding them?
[HTC Aria General] Moh_Jay:
There are but first learn to post in the general area if you have a question.

There is widget locker in the market as well as extracting the framework-res.apk and chamging lockscreen images and make a flashable zip.

Signatures are fancy.
[HTC Aria General] vicmora5:
Check out the WidgetLocker app. Its really awesome and well worth the price. When you buy it you will then be able to customize it and make the lockscreen change with themes other have made.

Heres a thread with some of the widgetlocker themes people are creating

[HTC Aria General] vis0nz:
Ill give it a look. Thanks for the quick reply.
[HTC Aria General] Plasmamuffins:
Whenever I used widgetlocker, my cm7 lockscreen and the widgetlocker lockscreen would always interfere with each other...how did you get around that?
[HTC Aria General] zedbra:
works ok for me, running CM7(RC2)

agree with others, Widget Locker is the best... and only $2:)
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Thats why I stopped using it. Would get a hesitation using widget locker as it doesnt actually replace the stock lockscreen. It just seems to overlay it. What it appeared to be to me was that widget locker, being an app, had to load. So if it dropped out of Memory the phone had to reload it and it caused this stutter/hesitation between it and the actual lockscreen. Not that big a deal, but it gave the appearance that the phone was glitchy which I didnt like (i do everything i can to make the phone super smooth, no sense in installing an app that counters that, no matter how slight).

Now I just go with no sliders and use a gesture to unlock the phone and have another gesture to toggle sound. Super clean and confusing to whoever picks up the phone trying to be sneaky.
[HTC Aria General] Plasmamuffins:
And gesture unlock is in the lockscreen settings, correct? And thank you for answering my question. :)
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
yup. settings>cm settings>lockscreen settings>lockscreen gestures.
[HTC Aria General] wushi8:
I am using CM7 ,suggest lock screen wegdit,and it is free.

Hi,

So today I decided I'd have a go at putting a custom boot animation on my Xperia X8.

I was using command prompt and 'pushed' the boot animation zip folder onto my phone. I restarted my phone and to my surprise it actually worked.

Well I thought all was well until I waited the usual 3 minutes it takes for the X8 to boot up and still the custom boot animation was playing...

I button mashed...as you do and nothing happened.

I plugged in the USB cable and my computer detects it but doesn't show the SD drive in my computer.

So now it's just stuck on the boot animation.

Any help appreciated

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a1yet:
Hi I have a few questions maybe you can answer

I'm new to smart-phones BUT am a self (Family and Friends) proclaimed computer Wiz.

That aside I'm illiterate about smart-phones, so i apologize if you find these questions dumb!

1) when it comes it comes to personal contacts is it better to save them to your phone or Google ?

i made my first contact for my new phone today. and it asked me if i wanted to

"Create contact under account"

(a) XXX (at) gmail (dot) com (Google)

OR

(b) Phone-only (unsynced)

1a) IF you saved the said contact to your Google G-mail account, and Google server goes down OR you do not have Internet access would you still be able to see your contacts ?

1b) is there any advantage or disadvantage to saving contacts to phone and/or Google

questions about Google:

Background on why I'm asking my next question:

Google is a BIG personal data collections agency and keep a record of everything you ever search for on the internet! (well using their servers).

law enforcement often use your google searches (and/or web browsing history) against you in court! (well if u ever do anything illegal that is).

Google also uses this data in-house and/or sells it (or give the information to subsidiaries to sell (thus legally bypassing any privacy policies you may read on any website))

question:

2) Given the above information, is it even wise to let google know who your contacts are, as they can use this info in nefarious (like making a buck) and/or non-nefarious uses :confused:

Question:

last one :-)

3) is there a limit to how many contacts i can have on my Phone and/or with google

thanks for taking your time in reading this and I am looking forward to any and all replies! :D

.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitarist5122:
1) Deffinately store your numbers to google! Even if you never root or have issues with your phone, you will be able to port your contacts to your next android phone by simply signing into google when you do the initial setup.

2) Google will never use your contacts for their personal use. The storage of your contacts on their servers are for your use only.

3) on the phone, yes but that would have to be some insaine number of contacts lol. On google, store away! I dont think anybody but yellow book could possibly even come close to having too many numbers on google's servers.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a1yet:
TY for the reply

i think i'll use Google even though i think they will USE the numbers somehow to their benefit

i like to tinker with things IE: root

so i better use google for it's benefits as u pointed out in answer number 1

thank you VERY much

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meeces2911:
Hey all.

First off, i hope someone will see this, as i dont have enough posts yet to post in the correct forums.

I recently flashed ARHD 3.2 and its been working great. The only problem i have found is that my activesync account will no longer sync. So i tried deleting it, and recreating it. When i get to the last screen it says there was an error creating the account, and in logcat it shows error 451.

Now from what i have googled, it says 451 is:

Exchange ActiveSync returned an HTTP 451 response. (Device Misconfigured)

And something along the lines of activesync thinks there is a better server for me to connect too.

But when i was running arhd 2.x activesync was fine.

Can anyone shed some light onto this ?

Other info:

Server address: Outlook DOT com

username: mpd50 AT uclive DOT ac DOT nz

domain: uclive DOT ac DOT nz

ssl: yes

Damn, anti spam measures
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedayat7:
is it true the server address is outlook .com ?

normally it is webmail.uclive.ac.nz something like that.

maybe you can try :

Server address:

username: mpd50

domain: uclive.ac.nz

ssl: yes

or you can set it manually (click on set manually) after you enter the username and password.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meeces2911:
The only reason i used outlook.com was because in outlook 2010 on my laptop, the server it connects to is an outlook one.

When i try uclive dot ac dot nz as the server, i get authentication failed. But with outlook dot com, i can get right to the end, but not past finish setup.

Oh well, ill keep trying every few days... or wait for an update from mike.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meeces2911:
Ok, I managed to setup the account on my computer fine, so I copied the server it used to my phone and that seems to have done the trick... looks like android is not selecting the correct exchange server, and you have to enter it manually yourself.

What rom? What error? How you trying to sync? What you syncing with? Outlook? Activesync? HTCsync?You are aware that only sense roms will sync normally right?

yes , normally we plug in our use with HD2 to the laptop , there is a messege show what we want to right ? but now nothing come out , even i go to usb tethering also cannot on , wifi hotspot also cannot on , just show error ...... sigh ..... headache !
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
more info needed.

when you say 'normally we..'' what counts as normal? do you mean when you were on windows mobile (or android that includes sense) it popped up a box 'charge, hard disk, sync'? because that only happens in HTC sense roms.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyaniris:
I got nexus s (i9020T) recently and found the touch screen unresponsive sometimes. I've already tried several launchers(adw, lancherpro, go launcher ex), and it seems not launcher's problem. I've also tried to flash different ROMs, including CM-7rc2 and stock 2.3.3, and the problem remains.

Later I tried to bind Multi-touch Visualizer 2 to long pressing home button, and found the when screen is unresponsive, it can still detect press near edges very well, but not the center. While I press at the edge and drap across the center, it keeps tracking my finger correctly. In addition, Locking and unlocking the screen can solve the problem temporally.

I'm confused by the strange behavior, anyone experienced similar issue?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyaniris:
more info from test,

I connect my phone with adb, and tried to "cat /dev/input/event0"

The behavior confirms what I see in Multitouch Visualizor 2: the when the center of screen is unresponsive, nothing can be read from the device node.

I read the mxt224 touch screen controller doc, and it seems the chip features self-calibration, and thus I believe the "lock & unlock" will trigger the chip to tune it self in some way. I don't know kernel very well, so I cannot find the source code :( Any help please?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahdee:
FYI. we are not alone.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13853

I got this problem too whenever my phone is in my pocket facing inward.

I have tried to open the calculator to see which part of the screen having problem. Mine is usually the "8" and "5" location unresponsive if my phone stayed in my pocket facing inwards for a certain period of time.

The problem will goes off after couple of mins when i can feel that the phone is cooler than my body temp.

I knew this happens to the Dell Streak as well.

when i press an "up" button.. it functions as a down button ..

and a down button as an up button..

and power button is not working..

ive been trying to get into a download mode

but when I do a "press up and downbutton +plug usb + plug a battery" trick to get into the download mode

the recovery mode screen automatically appears...

so stressed now..

I would be greatly appreciated if anyone can help me out
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
All of this and more can be found in the Noob Guide in the general section op by S15274N

You are in recovery mode if it says "2E" or "3E" recovery you should be able to get into download mode and then you can flash back into stock.

To get to download mode plug in you usb into the computer first. then, hold the volume keys both down then plug into the phone (while it is showing the recovery mode, in other words it is still on) if it does not work, then pull out then try again a couple of times When you plug it in leave for 2-3 secs. There are other methods in the noob guide to try as well. If this does not work or you can't get it Then, just buy a Jig from the xda member connextion2005 (mobilevideotech.com I think). they are 8 bucks and all you do in just plug it in and it will bring up the download mode. From there you can do this:

Get the Odin program 1.7 or newer, get the Stock 2.1 Tar file, get the 512pit file

You can find these in the general forum in the thread called Noob guide

then:

Open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode. connect it to the computer it will recognize might say com8 or some other number

Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.

You want to check the 're-partition' box.

Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!

Then, root the phone and you can flash your new Rom.

Use the super oneclick method it is easier to root then download Rom manager and now you can flash any rom you want

This is solvable good luck

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis0224:
NO,, It didn't work..

the problem is that the recovery mode appears instead as soon as i plug the usb..

even if i tried the old method I've been using for..(this one used to always work but not anymore..)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
1. Remove SD and SIM card

2. Remove battery

3. plug the phone into USB

4. hold down vol-up and vol-down

5. Pop the battery back in while holding vol buttons

This may work if not.............

Just get the jig it works and will solve this problem

[Nexus One General] ap3604:
All of us N1 owners know that the power button can be prone to failure over time.

Right now I use the "NoLock" app as well as the Lock Widget to make sure I don't have to push the power button that much (I instead use the volume keys to wake up the phone and the Lock Widget to put it to sleep)

I was wondering though... If in the future (like a year from now) when/if my power button fails... How do I turn on my phone once it powers off? Is there a way to do this if the power button doesn't work anymore? :confused::confused::confused:

Also is there a way to do this WITHOUT rooting? Really don't like rooting my phone :(
