Just got this app from the market place. GREAT app that lets you place a CPU monitor anywhere on your screen. Highly customizable: colors, pixels, fonts, etc. I placed mine on the bottom of the screen (portrait) and changed the colors to blue theme to match my homescreen and made the background transparent. With this app you can see how hard your CPU works over time and can see how open apps effects your battery usage, It cost $2 but worth it. Runs perfect on the Atrix. The screenshots don't do the app justice. I wish the dev would make a similar app that does a spectrum analyzer.

Hi there Q & A Team,

I've been reading up on rooting my shiny new LG Optimus One P500h this entire weekend and came across this thread that was generously put together by the_ERROR. One issue- as helpful as the thread was all of the links in the OP appear to be dead! Any alternatives for finding the 2.2 firmware that I need to get busy?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] untruestory:
From what I have read neither the camera, dialer, or EPST can be put on an AOSP ROM. Hoping someone can tell me this isn't so.

Any reccomendations?

(I tried 360 and vignette but was not happy with the lag on them. The closest dialer I found was dialerone but looking for something with a little more polished look.)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VegasEvo4G:
???

Not quite sure where you are going here. If you are that in love with sense apps, why are you interested in AOSP roms? The way your question reads, it sounds like you haven't yet tried AOSP. That is the beauty of this whole process. Nand, try something out, and if you don't like it or it doesn't have what you were looking for, nand back!!

I've been rockin MIUI for 3 months and not missing sense one bit. The camera is AMAZING- better than sense and the market apps. Some apps do have nice effects and what not, but none of them can touch MIUI's camera as far as moving/action shots go.

Let me know if you need any more info regarding AOSP. Again, back up your stuff and go see for yourself. As long as you nandroid, you have nothing to lose!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] untruestory:
I've tried MIUI, CM6, CM7, and one other GB ROM in addition to many sense ROMs. It's not that I'm in love with sense apps. I use ADW. Overall I prefer CM7 first and foremost and secondly MIUI. I put on almost 40k miles a year and use my GPS and bluetooth constantly and like to take lots of pics. MIUI has a great look and feel but the GPS takes longer to find locations than other ROMs and when using my bluetooth is incredibly unresponsive so those two things killed it for me. I never really played with it's camera. If I were a dev I'd take base my ROM on CM7, add MIUI menus, customizability options, theme manager and take the camera, dialer, and EPST from Sense.

Where I was basically wishing for is a way to put the Sense dialer, camera, and EPST on CM7. I should have said that :P Thanks for the reply though!
[Thunderbolt General] keever25:
I've noticed my earpiece sound is a bit buzzy/tinny when someone talks, at least compared to my incredible. Anyone else experience this? I checked the demo units at the store, and they seem to also sound this way.
[Thunderbolt General] nosympathy:
I was on the phone for about 10 mins yesterday from lifelock calling to ask if I had wanted to run credit with verizon, lol good thing though I guess. I didn't notice any issues at all with buzzing or anything. If it did it was minor and didn't bother me.
[Thunderbolt General] chino0131:
I havent noticed this on mine. I just made a call to test in case I just wasnt noticing it and didnt have this issue.

The only sound related issue I have noticed is that some sounds, like lock screen and the sound made when selecting an app, will get really low after a minute or two even if I have the volume on high and do not adjust it.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] -Howard-:
Is the app worth buying, as it supports themes that look really cool :D But how long is the delay before it kicks in? because that is what would most annoy me :)

Thanks for any information.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
Yes it is worth it, I get no delays, you will get delays on sense roms.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] -Howard-:
I brought it and its fine :D would you recommend any themes for out size display?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
check in the themes thread by zhk3r. Sense themes fit perfectly, I also resized some for qvga.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] -Howard-:
Thanks Kevin i found them :D My phone wouldn't look half as sexy without you, and your right there is no delay with CM i forgot my mate has it and he uses sense.

I been having some very weird problems with my hd2 recently, ever 5-10 minutes, I get no service message, and loose my cell connection, the only way to get it back is by selecting the network under settings. Now I've task29'd reflashed magldr, and various roms along with using another sim card same problems. Its not my network provider or sim as it works fine in another phone any ideas?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Chrispy111:
I have the same connection issues with my HD2. It's been a problem for close to a year since i got the phone last April. I got used to it and thought it was normal. My Data connection drops often as well as my ability to make and receive phone calls.

About 6 weeks ago I called T-mobile and they had me do a factory reset with not luck, then they sent me to my local tmo store to pick up a new SIM card, still no luck.

Then T-mobile offerered to switch out my phone for a new one which i did and i still have the same issues. I called T-mobile back again to let them know that the problem is the same and they are sending me another phone.

My wife has a My Touch 3G and she rarely ever has a connection issue and never has a problem making a phone call.

The HD2 is a great device but the connection issues are a bummer.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
I got my Galaxy tab yesterday and, incidentally, I'm TOTALLY loving it!!!! Anyway, I rooted it (using z4root) so that I could use Titanium backup and regularly backup my apps/data.

I didn't try recording video before I rooted, so I don't know if rooting has caused the problem, but it's been suggested that it may have done.

Basically, when I start to record video I get about 5 seconds and the app force closes. I don't have any problem taking pictures - just video.

Has anyone come across this issue or know of anything that may explain or (preferably) help solve it??

It's not the end of the world if I can never use it to record video, but I'd like to be able to if possible.

Thanks guys.

Edit: Problem solved! See this post for the answer :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
Hi, firstly congrats on your new Galaxy Tab, welcome here :)

I have never faced these problems on a stock unrooted ROM (which i am on) and have never rooted my TAB before. Perhaps try flashing a different ROM and see how it goes. Or since your TAB is fairly new and has few customizations you may want to try a master clear?

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Thanks for the congrats. It's a BEAST and I love it :D

I did do a hard reset, but I was dubious as to whether or not it had actually done a hard reset as it seemed to retain some of my settings. It didn't solve my problem, either way.

I don't want to go down the custom ROM route for now as I'm happy with the stock ROM (after replacing the launcher with Launcher Pro).

I know it's a clutch at straws, but I'm hoping that someone knows of a fix for this problem. If someone can tell me how to do a 100% factory reset then I'd happily give it a go, but the method I used was not successful (power off and then hold volume up and power on - follow the menu to factory reset).
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orenxda:
Hi, do you (try to) record to your GT SSD or to SD card?

I had the same problem first due to a very bad class 2 microSD card.

Video recording crashing, but only after 2 to 5 seconds recording.

Formating it didn't fix the problem, replacing it did. Maybe a hint.

Also try to switch to standard quality, no audio settings.

And try another free video capture app.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
yeh it's awesome! :)

I think you could refer to the user manual it nay teach you how to hard reset? i don't know how to do that either :S

Or like the above member stated,the memory card may be an issue... what memory card are you on? i'm on the default Samsung 16GB (Class 6)? card - no issues here.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovigt71:
Full Reset :

*2767*3855# - from the dialer

no issue here = micro sd 16GB cass 2

try to use OneClickRoot - for MAC or SuperOneClickv1.7-ShortFuse for Windows next time ! works for me better!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Thanks for the comments and suggestions guys, and thanks for the alternative method of factory resetting, ovigt71.

Unfortunately, I was still rooted after doing that. Seems strange that the rooting is persisting after a factory reset, but that's what's happening!

Anyway, unless someone comes up with a brainwave I'm just gonna live with the fact that I can't record video. It's not a major biggie as I have a HD2 which has a better camera anyway, so I'll always use that. I just like everything to work the way it should.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovigt71:
...hm...most probably you got a wrong version of Z4 root....but, in my personal opinion, better reflash with PIT file the firmware (if you like using the stock, then you root with SuperOneClickv1.7-ShortFuse and everything should go back to normal. or better you follow the guide and install Overcome, which is already prerooted! hope it help!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Nah, I'm gonna stick with the stock ROM for now. It's only a few days old so I'm not interested in flashing anything to it. And I got z4root off here ages ago. It's sitting on Dropbox with a bunch of other apk files that I use on new devices (I was changing ROMs on my HD2 at an alarming rate at one point!)

Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
mate, if i were you, you might as well get the problem sorted now, before it's too late. You may aswell try unrooting it if you can, test if the video works. if it doesn't take it back to your retailer, tell them your problem, and the may replace your TAB with a new one. You may aswell get it done early rather than waiting a while and they won't do anything for you ad suspect it was self invoked. I personally do not face any problems but as i say i have a unrooted tab + stock 16gb sd card and it works fine.

good luck, hope u get it sorted.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovigt71:
yes...@olyloh6696 is correct! as long as you have the Tab under warranty you should try to make it work.....until is not yo late!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Yeah, that's good advice, and probably what I'd say to someone in my position. I'll get in touch with Orange and take it from there.

Cheers guys.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Problem solved!!!

There was nothing wrong. Rooting hadn't caused the problem, and there's nothing wrong with the tab (thankfully). I'd set the lcd density to 180 because I like to have lots of small icons, rather than just a few big ones. As soon as I restored my backup of build.prop I could record video.

Seems the cam app doesn't like different lcd density settings.

I can live with that - at least it's not the tab.

Edit: In case anyone finds this and wonders, I just set the lcd density to 200 and video recording still works. Things aren't that much bigger than at 180, so I can live with that.

Edit: It works at 190. I've not tried the other 9 values between 180 and 190 though. 190 looks great :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
thanks for pointing out the settings :) glad you got your 'problem' foxed, now you can enjoy the full power of the Galaxy TAB !! :D

P.S - were your video settings set to saving to the SD cad or internal memory?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] student.driver:
At least one person has reported that the camera works at 182 and above, so that might be the number to shoot for if you want to continue.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovigt71:
@johncmolyneux

thanks for the tip! I'm using density at 200....I wasn't think about that! LOL :) good to know!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
I've tried both, and it makes no difference. This was definitely down to the LCD density setting.

Thanks for that. I've got used to it at 190 now, but good to know I can go lower if I fancy it.

Thanks for the thanks - glad it helped mate :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Auduno:
Hey

I've tried multiple widgets for contacts, but the all have the same irritating problem. None of them are able to display contact's picture!

I have tried the same widgets on my old HTC Hero to, and the work perfectly on that handset, so it gotta be something wrong with the Optimus itself..

When I'm going in to Settings->About the device->Software update, I'm getting an error: "Connection failed because of aproval error."

Someone else experience the same problems? Any solutions?

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] larsn84:
Try People contact widget

Works for me on Desire/Desire HD/Samsung Galaxy S and Optimus 2x

Stock contact widget in HTC Sense and LG UI works for me too though

Do you have pictures on your contacts in the normal adress book?

The Software update error is common. There's no update for Optimus yet, so you need to wait for LG/google to provide us with one....

Try installing Facebook for Android and log in. Synchronize with existing contacts, and see if pictures show up
[LG Optimus 2x] willaing:
I have an other problem. My phone only combines some of my facebook contacts with the phones. Can't figure out how to combine them manualy. This was easy with my HTC Desire
[LG Optimus 2x] Auduno:
When I'm going in to my contacts list they all have pictures after I synchronised with Facebook. But when I go in to one spesific contact and press edit, there is no picture before i scroll down to the facebook information about the contact.

All of the contacts are also saved ass google contacts. On my old Hero, they were saved as phone contacts.

Another thing; when I go into accounts and synchronize, and goes into the facebook acc, it says "sychronizing names". Nothing about pictures..
[LG Optimus 2x] birdfoot:
In my case, the stock widget don't display the contact pictures on O2X either. I don't store contacts on my phone but rather kept them synced to google contacts. I also merged my facebook contacts with google contacts.

What I noticed is this: you will generally not have any issues with contact pics if they come with your google contacts; if your google contact has a pic, it will be displayed with certainty. The problem only arises when trying to display facebook contact pics in the absence of google contact pics even after merging contacts. I've never had much issues like this on my HTC Desire except on contacts that didn't update their account security to allow their contact pics to be synced. So my guess is that this issue is probably to do with how LG integrates the facebook pics to the contact storage on the phone.

AT&T is taking over T- Mobile.
[Networking] Lavell7298:
Well said Cajunflavoredbob. I went through similar experiences that you speak of. Like I said in another thread, after AT&T stuck me hard, I vowed never to give them my business again. Now after hearing this news, I will end up eating my own words!

I have the Touch Pro2 (T-mobile brand) and I really like this phone, especially after the modified ROMs here on this site. I have no intention to get another phone. So now I have to wait until this deal gets finalized and then determine if keeping this phone is worth going through the headaches with AT&T all over again.:confused:
[Networking] nikmash232:
All plans will be grandfathered. Also better service coverage too, so I don't think it will be so bad. I hope we can use At&t frequency phones on a T-Mobile service.

[Networking] cajunflavoredbob:
Care to share which ones? I looked through this forum and hadn't found a single one talking about the acquisition. If I had, then I wouldn't have started this thread. If there are threads about it in other areas of the site, then there isn't much I can do about that as those threads would be in the wrong place. This thread was started to allow open general discussion of the subject. Obviously, if threads you may be referring to are in device specific forums, then not everyone is going to see them.

I don't know much about the world of mergers except I read that this one will take at least 12 months. Is this a done deal? Or is there something sufficiently monopolistic about it that could run into legal troubles?

Jake
[Networking] cajunflavoredbob:
The deal could take up to a year to finalize if it is allowed. This acquisition would make AT&T the only nation wide GSM carrier. AT&T is also looking to acquire more radio spectrum from Qualcomm who had those FloTV things for a while that bombed. It still has a lot of red tape to go through, but, honestly, I doubt that it will run into much opposition unfortunately. The other downside to this is that we now know that DT is looking to offload T-Mobile US to the highest bidder. Before this, there was a rumor about Sprint trying to acquire the company. I doubt Sprint can afford the price tag on T-Mobile now that AT&T has set the bar. It is a loose-loose situation for T-Mobile customers. No matter what happens, Big Daddy is still putting up TMoUS for sale. The question now becomes, who will get it in the end?
[Networking] ajbk4life1:
if this goes through im going to Sprint because i hate AT&T AND dont like the idea of youtube being a premium service on Verizon. but isnt this deal like monopoly. i doubt the US government will allow this too happen without some legal troubles and a lot of money being payed to the government.
[Networking] jakfish:
The only positive things I can see out of this, are that a) it's a true gsm marriage, which continues to maintain a world flavor to the phone and b) AT&T will have boatload of different bands: 1700, 2100, and whatever AT&T uses. That should free up 4G considerably.

Had T-Mobile and Sprint gotten together, I just can't see the CDMA-GSM thing. What were they going to use, half a sim card?

But I'm old enough to remember the bad AT&T days and can't feel that these will be any better.

Jake
[Networking] Androidboy35961:
AT&T is not that bad..lol

[Networking] gregb882:
I am very glad to hear someone speak well of AT&T, because my personal experience has not been good. I am convinced that CFB is dead-on with his assessment about why they purchased T-Mobile (his LTE argument). This is NOT even remotely good for the consumer.

I know only one person who has been happy with Sprint (out of dozens), but they seem to be the least restrictive which may force me to give them another try. But they'll probably have the same indoor reception issues Verizon has - CDMA doesn't penetrate walls as well as GSM does. It's kind of funny: we have two groups of people huddled outside the office doors - smokers and Verizons customers.

[Networking] jakfish:
Given that it's a Republican, hence laissez faire, House, I can't see them stopping this merger, but the initial political chatter is very much against it. That could be nothing more than posturing for constituents, but for AT&T to take over 80% of the mobile market in one fell swoop, politicians are really going to have to look the other way.

They often do, however,
