I like to use launcher pro but does stoney666 clocks work with this launcher.

Dinc
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] derickmc:
No. Have to use HTC Sense because they are mods for the Sense flip clock... Even if you are on a Sense ROM. Launcher Pro masks the Sense UI, therefor the Sense widgets aren't availible. His fancy widget clocks will work with launcher pro though.

Haha... first thread about me but not to me.... what derick said!!

did you get the clock you wanted? let me know if you see a sense clock that you would like in a fancy widget... I'll whip that up for you...

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tai4de2:
Firstly, let me say that I really like the Xoom, so please don't accuse me of trolling.

But I can't believe how poor the email app is. I set it up with my Exchange server and there are 3 issues.

1. Folders are flattened out. Not too big of a deal, I could probably live with it.

2. No IRM support. Sort of a problem, I *might* be able to live with.

3. This is the big one: replies don't quote enough headers and so all the context in an email thread is lost. I seriously can't believe that a modern email app would be this pathetic. All it shows is "foo <foo@bar.com> wrote:" and then the quoted text. No sent time, no other recipients, no subject... SERIOUSLY? How on earth can Google or Motorola or whoever think that this would not be needed, especially for an ENTERPRISE email scenario like Exchange?

I'm hoping I am missing something. I tried K-9 but it doesn't support Exchange 2010. I know there are other clients I could buy but if I had to pay extra for an email client just to get usable email support I will probably just return the tablet.

Extremely disappointing. Maybe I am missing something?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colbyb25:
There are a bunch of email apps in the market. Try another one that suits your needs.

Use Touchdown. UI is not pretty but I think it would cover your needs.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoncarpenter01:
Another vote here for Touchdown. It is definetly not very pretty but I use it on my phones and now on my Xoom. It provides really great integration with exchange and Active Sync. Its one of the only ways you can get tasks synced to a mobile device. I will say that I have been switching back to the honeycomb email client recently just because it looks sloop much nicer though :)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atoy74:
I know you would like the stock client to better suite your needs but thats where the term "there's an app for that" came from. Try Touchdown, it should be what you're looking for.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwizardtx:
Yes you are missing something. When you purchase Windows 7 it comes with Windows Live Mail. While WLM probably handles e-mail better than the native google mail client in honeycomb I would imagine that it would not synch your exchange mail store and you would end up purchasing Outlook 2010 or a similar exchange compatible client.

In this regard, I feel like the client while missing a couple features that it *should* have is still good enough.

If you want a full featured exchange client for your android, I would recommend looking at Touchdown or K9.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
Nice analogy.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tai4de2:
great feedback and suggestions all. I tried tiuchdown and agree it would'probably serve my needs.

Ultimately though I decided I can create some browser favorites and use OWA. Glad I can keep my Xoom!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
Hi all, i am running the latest version of Bionix i went to hit the reboot option and accidentally selected the download mode button. I pulled the battery out before it fully shutdown, me being impatient. When i put the battery back in the phone immodestly turned on and tried to boot, and stays on the vibrant screen for about 2-3 seconds then shuts off and try's to boot back up again on its own. Also when plugged in it continues to boot loop, it never shows that it is charging, only the battery with the loading circle, then ****s off and repeats.

I am not new to modding, and i am not new to getting my phone into recovery or download mode. The problem is the phone does not respond to the hardware keys, and i am positive that it used to be able to reach download mode via keys, i do not have a hardware locked vibrant.

I guess my question lies in the realm of another way to reset the phone, maybe via shorting pins or something? Does anyone know of an alternate method that does not rely on keys or software to reset the phone?

Thanks in advanced!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
I have been in similar circumstance. Have you tried the battery methods to get into dl mode?

Remove battery and connection to computer.

plug phone back into computer

Hold volume up and down

Insert battery while holding buttons

That should work because it will put you in dl mode before it has a chance to boot loop
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadrider123:
You might have to have odin up and running before you do the battery pull
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Good point !!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
Thanks for the responses i haven't heard of this method. I will defiantly try when i get home in about 2 hours and report back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
Please explain.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougstoner:
A jig is a mod'ed usb device that will basically force your vibrant into download mode. Just use the method mentioned earlier....ie

Have odin up and running.

Pull battery

plug in cable

hold vol up and down

put battery in

should get you into download mode. Sometimes it took a few tries with Odin already loaded to successfully do it, but you shouldn't have any issues.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Keep us posted, I follow your twitter so send a post if it works or doesnt, and Ill come on here and try to help you out if it doesnt. I have had similar soft brick issues so many times now it gets to a point where you just play with it till you recover.

Point being there is lots of ways to overcome this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LovellKid:
Hey man Ive been in a similiar situation as well.... this has been the ONLY way that has worked, not even the above mentioned methods.

Phone not plugged in at all yet. Battery pull for 10 seconds, put back in, BEFORE plugging in phone, hold volume up button (if this doesnt work try both volume buttons, sorry been out of the Vibrant for a while for my NS) while plugging phone in (still holding volume up button), hold till it throws into DL mode.

Hope that helps man!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
Thanks for the info, i may look into getting/making a jig. I would be nice to have around.

Thanks again.

I've tried that method, it used to work for me. This soft brick is different than any other I've encountered. The phone has never automatically tried to boot when i put the battery into it, it makes things harder. But thanks and ill give it ago again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
No such luck with the battery method, it still just boot loops. I tried at least 2 dozen times.Anyone want to tell me how to get my hands on a jig?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
I think that method with the battery is just referred to as a jig by some people.

I would try the battery method with odin ready to go and without, and sometimes it takes a couple tries.

Also just try holding all the buttons while unplugged, for a long time, then on one of the boot loops as soon as you see anything flicker in the screen release the power button, then try all buttons, then just volume buttons. Sometimes playing with it like that just kinda forces it.

Does odin see it in com port? Do you have correct drivers installed to use odin? Sdk installed as well?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddysays:
Also try different combos of being plugged in and not. And recovery or download mode. Recovery will be just as useful as dl mode.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almyz125:
A jig is THIS, it shorts out pins in the micro usb port forcing it to download mode. I am positive i have the correct drivers and the sdk installed right. This isn't the first time I've been soft bricked and i am very familiar with DL mode and Recovery, and how to reach them traditionally. This soft brick is different though for what ever reason. I am going to have to try this jig, and if that doesn't work, i think ill have to read up about the jtag pins on it, if anyone has more information on jtaging a Galaxy S please post!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drglassford:
Did you ever end up trying the jig? I'm having the exact same problem you were. Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pillowmissile:
I hard bricked a vibrant by trying to flash a rom on a low battery. Battery died in the middle of rebooting thus killing my vibrant with no way of recovery (seriously, charged the battery and the phone still wouldn't turn on... at all). Anyway, while trying to fix it, I actually made a jig. It's a lot easier than it sounds. You basically cut the plug that goes into your phone off of the cord down to where you can see all of the wires. Once you do that you break off the plastic shell that covers the plug. You then use a 301k resistor (I couldn't find that exact one so I bought 3 x 100k resistors and a 1k resistor then twisted them together).. plug the usb side into your phone then touch the opposing ends of the resistor onto wires 4 and 5 and it should go into download mode. You don't necessarily have to solder the resistor to the wires but you can. It makes it a bit easier considering you can't touch the wire part of the resistor or the static will mess up the voltage. Otherwise, Amazon sells jigs for a few bucks.

I wanted to post the url for the site that I found useful in making a jig but because I'm a "junior user" I can't. So if you search for "usb jig" on amazon there are a few; if you want to make one google "how to unbrick samsung vibrant" there is an article on factoidz called "How to unbrick your samsung vibrant/galaxy s" which I found to be the most useful.

Hope this helps!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greenwich157:
Folks, I am new to Android development and is particularly interested in the home screen/launcher replacement. From what I have read so far, there's no need for rooting in order to replace the home screen. But I got a feeling that more can be achieved if rooting is done. So is this true? What are the limits if there's no rooting and what are the addition features/functions with rooting?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] marky310:
nope. no rooting as far as launcherpro, golauncher etc go. cant think of a reason why a home replacement app would need root for...so go for it!

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Playon90:
Hey guys my mini started rebooting itself randomly sometimes very often ive been using the cyanogen mood for one month and it never happened but one day it just started from nothing then I pushed it back to the 2.1.... through xrecovery but the reebots didn't stop at all I tought it could be caused by adw ex then I installed it but didn't work... I formatted my sd card nothing changed.

the only difference things I've been doing with my phone since it started rebooting is using the data traffic instead of wireless because I'm away from home

using pdanet once in a while

and charging it through the charger l used to charge it through my notebook before

can one of these things cause those reboots? It's very boring

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ray_jai:
I get random reboots too.

this happens when i do a newroom rss update + ebuddy + foursqare thru wifi.

But i've had it happen when I just want to load a game too.

the phone reboots with the sony logo, then it reboots again.

usually after the 2nd or 3rd reboot. everything loads up fine again. is this the same with you?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Playon90:
No mine is more like Turning off itself from time to time I pushed my phone back to the SE version through SEUS and it has been like 24h and no reboots til now... I just want to make sure it's not any hardware problem or is before sending to Sony.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] evilbarcode:
Hey bro,

Um well using cyanogen, it has a few problems in it, one of them being when using an app that require root if that app is closed then for some reason the device unmounts the sdcard to safely remove it. Has this happened to you before it reboots? If so then there is nothing can be done right now, you will just have to wait for Owain to fix in the next update or two of either cyanogen port.

There are other issues including issues with wifi. In my expierence, if there are some issues anywhere in software, there is bound to be more (no offence Owain :) you rock) so there may very well be issues with something your using or doing differently

Hope this helped, if you need anything else just ask.

Cheers,

Jeremy.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happimeal:
As I am new to android forgive me if my terminology is incorrect but I am a sponge for learning as much as I can and have a question. I know everyone uses CWM for flashing new roms but could you also flash using the built in "i believe HBOOT" program for flashing new custom roms by naming it PG05IMG.ZIP on the root of your SD card.

The reason I am asking is after flashing a couple different roms with CWM, i did all the required wipes and formats in CWM it still seems like my icon placement, wallpaper and such stayed the same, as I was expecting to have to reset my phone each time "if i did the format/wipes in CWM" as I did the day i unpacked my phone.

I loaded CWM, issued the wipe data/factory reset, cleared the caches, then flashed BAMF 1.1, upgraded to 1.2, had some problems so did a nandroid restore of my system from a couple days ago, and when done, the wallpaper from BAMF rom was still the chosen wallpaper on my device which confused me i guess a little.

I expected after flashing the first custom rom, that i would be in essence having to setup all my accounts again, emails, etc like the day i unpacked it.

Thank You and again forgive my noobness, i am a former Iphone user, with lots of experience there, but this seems to be a whole different ball game.

So I guess to restate my question, can you flash custom roms using the phones built in recovery utility like mentioned above, and can anyone shed some light on the "personal data" and how it relates and carries over to new roms.

im trying to find a way to go back to regular stock like 1.6 or 2.1 but i cant find a way

ive been trying to root it also. but temp root dont work like visionary, universal root, super one click etc, im new to htc phone rooting. the samsung vibrant seems so easier to me.

is there like an update.zip to revert back? thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You'll need to get root, then you can use K`Tag's method from here to flash back a mostly stock 1.6 Fender ROM. The problem is that the original Fender ROM was never released, so a couple of guys got together and made one that is mostly like the original. So, we just need to get you rooted. Run SuperOneClick again, copy the log, dump it to pastebin, and drop the link here. I'll take a look at it and we'll go from there.

does it possible to porting this on all custom ROM?

I had absolutely *no* issues with the cellular network whatsoever until yesterday noon, that's when the problems started, all of a sudden.

I started experiencing disconnections from the 3G network intermittently, like every 5-10 seconds it would disconnect and reconnect, extremely unstable. I then put the phone in 2G mode, but I lost my EDGE data connection despite the APN's configured properly. I even called up the provider and had them deliver the APN settings to the phone, but to no avail. My data connection just didn't work, i.e. no 'E' symbol, nada,

Thinking it might be something to do with the ROM, I restored my 2.1 backup via xRecovery, but experienced the exact same issues. Extremely unstable 3G with it's intermittent disconnects etc and NO data connection when it 2G mode. In the 'About Phone' status, it just shows 'Unknown' as the mobile connection type and 'disconnected' in the connection state.

I even went ahead clean flashed the 2.1 .435 ftf via flashtool, but the same issues persist!

What do you think the problem could be? I triple checked with my operator and they say the data services are active on my number, no problem from their end.

Could it be a hardware issue? I unfortunately don't have another SIM I can test with - that said I greatly doubt it could be a hardware issue.

What do you think?

I'm on Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 v4.4
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anirudhgargi:
Could be a network issue. Do you have this problem at a different place. May be in a different cell. There's always issues initially after deployment of new 3g deployment.

There is rarely a problem with only the data part. As all the protocol stack are not changed or fiddled in these new rom.

So less chance of the rom.

you have to flash 1.1 first before 1.2. I do not know if 1.2.1 fixes that but as of a few hours ago that is how it had to be done. I kept getting my TB stuck on the storm and never logged into the phone.

no you dont...i never installed 1.1, just wiped cache and dalvik and flashed right over the old debloat rom..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zshazz:
The whole point is that apparently a lot of people are having issues booting into Das BAMF 1.2 after wiping data. So, basically, you want to NOT wipe (which is the exact opposite of normal ROM flashing behavior).

A "sure fire way" to succeed is to (obviously, backup first) install Das BAMF 1.1, wipe data&cache, boot ... add your gmail accounts and let everything settle, reboot into recovery and install Das BAMF 1.2, and just reboot WITHOUT wiping.

I came from using Das BAMF 1.1 and had no issues, but I didn't wipe. Good luck!
