Just off the top of my head:

If you have Tasker, you can set it to deactivate the screen lock when a bluetooth device is connected.

Create a new profile

Select state > Bluetooth connected

New Task > Display > Keyguard > Set Off

Then you can set an exit task to turn the keyguard back on

Actually mine went from working in 2.2.2 to now not working in 2.3.4... screen flashes a bunch of times but wont unlock... cant bluetooth call unless I unlock the phone first. This is very annoying!
[Atrix 4G General] ericwcc:
It should be a bug at some custom ROMs. You may try to flash the Custom ROM "CherryBlur 1.4d", the bluetooth dialer is still alive. However, it has battery drain issue. The battery may support around 12~14 hours even you switched to the maximum battery saver mode.

p.s. assumed that you have to enable the "Allow Bluetooth bypass" option in the system setting.

Running stock Gingerbread. I frequently use Bluetooth with no problems at all. I use fingerprint sensor all the time. Never need to unlock to receive an incoming call.

On Alien #4 - and in Stock too, I think - I've got the option to "Bypass over Bluetooth" as last menu entry in the lock settings. Do you have that menu point and have you tried that?
[Atrix 4G General] ericwcc:
Problem at Bluetooth Voice Dialer - Solution Found

Yes! The bluetooth headset may redial the last outgoing call and receive the incoming call without any problem. But it cannot wake up the phone when you activate the bluetooth voice dialer in some Custom ROMs.

Finally, I identify that the issue was caused by the overclock kernel. Because "CherryBlur 1.4d" includes the standard kernel without any overclock / under voltage setting, the bluetooth voice dialer can operate perfectly.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBME:
I connected my keyboard and mouse to my GTab running VeganTab 5.1.1 and they're working "almost" perfectly. When I use my mouse...the pointer moves in the wrong direction...for example: I move mouse down and the pointer moves to the left...I move mouse to the left and the pointer moves left.

This problem happens on portrait and landscape mode.

Anyone have this problem? Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks for the help in advance.

There is a fix applied in this ROM for the accelerometer. It flips the mouse directions. There is a patch on the page you downloaded the ROM from that will fix the mouse, but flip the accelerometer. So you get to pick which one you want working.

The VEGAn 5.1.1 post mentions that they fixed the g-sensor to the detriment of the mouse compatability. They give a link to a file which will fix mice but ruin the sensor, I guess.

My Xperia Arc wont connect to my bt home hub. It shows up in the list of active wifi networks but it does not say secured, although on my galaxy s and omnia hd, both find it no problems secured. When I try to connect to the network it shows as remembered but then you click it again it asks do u want to connect, you press connect and it does nothing. The wifi icon in the task bar still has a question mark on it.

I have tried manually entering the ssid and network password but to no avail, any suggestions?

[Droid X General] sundar2012:
The camera button on my girlfriend's droid x no longer works. It registers that is being held down (like with focus), but it doesnt register the button click.

This is not a huge issue for her, however, it becomes an issue if I want to work in recovery. My questions are as follows:

1) is this fixable or is this a hardware issue?

2) can I send commands to clockwork through adb?

3) If its unfixable and I can't send commands through adb, is it at all possible to flash a zip without using the camera button? (i'd either want to update to Liberty 2.0 or flash maderstcok.zip to return to stock and replace at verizon).

I would appreciate any help.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
After you have read and follow this tutorial, you will be able to do the following:

*Remove ringtones, alarms, and notification tones that you don't use

*Add your own ringtones, alarms, and notification tones that you WILL use

**This is not the same as downloading and using a ringtone from the internet, or wherever. Those methods allow the phone to play the file from your memory card. With this method, we are physically removing or adding directly in the ROM itself.

**Make a backup! I am NOT responsible for ANYTHING that YOU do.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Now, Let's proceed.

Alright... So you wanna do this, here is what you will need:

*ADB Installed and working

*Root Manager of some sort (I use Android Commander)

*Format Factory - This is freeware, so it's not warez.

Step 1. Download and install Format Factory. This is the program I use for everything. If you have one of your own preference, it can be substituted.

IMPORTANT: When installing Format Factory, choose CUSTOM install, and uncheck the toolbar boxes. Otherwise, you are gonna get toolbars installed. You have been warned.

Step 2. Open Format Factory and click "All to OGG", located under the "Audio" tab on the left. (OGG is universal from Android to Android. That's why this is the chosen option. Also, the sound quality is not noticeably different, and uses less space than an MP3)

Step 3. Now a new screen appears. Click "Add File", and navigate to your audio files that you want as ringtones, alarm, etc. Once selected, click "OK"

DO NOT CHANGE THE OGG SETTINGS. DEFAULT SETTINGS WORK FINE

Step 4. Now you should be back at your main window, as if you just started the program. You should now see your selected files listed in the right window of the program. On the top bar, click "Start."

**Once the conversion process is finished, you may close the program. By default, your saved files will go to documents/FFOutput

Step 5. Open your Root Explorer program, I use Android Commander

**In Android Commander, the left window is your PC, the right is your phone

Step 6. With your Root Explorer program, navigate to your newly created OGG files. Once you see them listed, select them. In Android commander, to select a file, you must put a check mark in the box associated with that file.

Step 7. Move these newly selected files to your phone, by clicking the "Copy" button above the left window in Android Commander. In the right window, you will want to make sure that you are within your "/system/media/***" folder, to insure these files are copied to the correct location.

Step 8. Reboot and test.

Please note: "***" represents the respective folders. i.e. "ringtones", "notifications", etc.

If you want to remove audio files that you do not use, just select them, and click "Delete" from within their respective folders, using Android Commander.

**Once they are deleted, if you have no backup, they are gone!

I hope this has helped some of you, who wish to do this. If it has, please click THANKS.

Constructive criticism is always welcome. any questions, just ask. :-)
[HTC Inspire 4G] designgears:
I would suggest backing up the first first...

adb pull /system/media media-backup

You could replace steps 5-8 with this if you know how to use adb.

From cmd prompt:

adb remount /system

adb push drive:\path\to\folder-with-oggs /system/media/(ringtones/alarms/ui)

adb reboot
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
Can I just ask what's the advantage of doing this versus using a tone off of your SD card? Seems like a lot of extra work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
Got that in the OP, to backup your stuff first. :-) ..And thanks for the command prompt commands. I'll give those a shot.

The advantage to doing this is nothing more than getting rid of extra stuff on your phone. Once the files are converted, you can put them aside somewhere and always have them.

This is with the understanding that you already have these ringtones on your memory card... This is a way to get them off your memory card, and on your phone. This in turn keeps your memory card clean.

I personally like this, because the only stuff that is on my phone is what I use, and nothing more. Even programs I don't use, get stripped from whatever ROM I am using.

Ty for ya time there TribalartGod.

Works well....AND i have been trying to find something like this android commander.

So double thanks to ya:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] bigballa:
android reads your sd card for media just like it does on the system partition.

if you wanna keep your sdcard clean of ringtones/alarms/notifications files

just make a folder on your sd card called media then create the other folders to mimic android's system partition.

so it would be

media/audio/alarms

media/audio/notifications

media/audio/ringtones

that way the media scanner has to do less searching

and if you have small system partitions like older phones this really helps to strip them out the rom and put them on the sd card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
Thx for the info. Works great for my wife's Samsung infuse. I rooted it but for some reason it wont let me set custom ringtones without loading a custom rom. So this method worked great to replace her ringtones on rooted stock rom. Unfortunately there really isn't a solid custom rom for the infuse with what I tested so far.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Great tut. Ill keep it in mind as I normally just use a zip that drops my ringtones into the proper folder and deletes the ones I don't use. Or use root explorer to delete them if there are new ones not in my list.
[HTC Inspire 4G] vinayakmt:

[Android Apps and Games] tdrussell:
In theory this is simple. In reality, especially given the enhancements to google docs in recent months, this is rather complex. The new "collections" feature basically allows you to create a pseudo-file system within Docs, opening a world of possibilities for cloud storage. Cloud storage services are ubiquitous, but none offer storage for the price google does, unlimited services not-withstanding. ($5/20GB/year if you didn't know). So with this, google docs now allows uploads of any file type, and will even let you play back several media types in the browser. The problem is, there are no apps (that i have found) that are able to take advantage of both of these enhancements. Quickoffice seems to read the folder nesting correctly, but seems to only let me upload document-type files. Same goes for DocsToGo. Gdocs is a no-go, as is Docs Pics. Furthermore, these apps require you to do the whole copy > navigate to other directory > paste shenanigans...which i suppose i could live with if it actually worked. So then, anyone have a clever solution to this issue? No doubt google has new API's to take advantage of these features, somebody just has to scoop them up and run with em. I'd be willing to pay for this app, and i'm sure many others would as well. Let me know what you guys think.
[Android Apps and Games] johndickinson:
I have been looking for the same thing since October 2010. I read briefly somewhere that you need to be a Google Apps paid user to be able to use the API to upload any file type. I can use QuickOffice to copy my MP3 files from Google Docs to my phone, but not the other way around. Even if Google allowed me to use the Android web browser to upload an any file type file to Google Docs, it would least be a start! My browser keeps crashing every time I try to use the desktop web interface. I am hoping the Google Docs Android app will include this feature someday!

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JojoSFO:
Hi, I have the SGT P1000 and the Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant). Also have the Blu-Ray player C5500 and PC Share Manager installed on WinXP.

I can:

Use Allshare from the GTab to stream video to my TV (via Blu Ray Player)

Use PCSM to stream video from PC to TV

Use PCSM to stream video from PC to Galaxy S (via Allshare)

Use Allshare to stream video from Galaxy S to Galaxy Tab

So it all seems to be working fine. What I cannot do is stream video via PCSM from PC to my Galaxy Tab using Allshare. It seems the Galaxy Tab has a diff version of Allshare than what the Galaxy S has

I can connect fine -- Choose PCSM as server, and "my device" as player on the Galaxy tab. It connects, but on the next screen -- no files are available to view. No video, Photos, or Music shows up.

Is this a known problem for Allshare Galaxy Tab version? I've searched the threads but haven't seen a similar issue.

Many thanks for any help provided!

Very lame, I can't seem to find how change the 'standard' navigation back to google maps navigation.

I think this behavoir is very very lame, you can't uninstall the application, so HTC forces you to buy this 3rd party navigation software, wich in my opinion sucks compared to Google Maps Navigation!

Same goes for the Amazone MP3 application which you can't deinstall. Very very lame, it seems I have spend 500 euro on a high-tec a billboard! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Really annoying to have the Amazon MP3 icon in you're menu. Really sucks that you can't deinstall it.What the F are they thinking?, people who buy android don't need a mp3 store, they are smart enough to click on a torrent link or use usenet.

It's been a long ride from Qtek 8010 till the HTC legend, and various steps in between, but no more HTC for me. But not being able to choose what Navigation software you run, thus forcing you to use the paid version is unacceptable for me. :mad:

Q.	How do I use turn by turn navigation on the phone?

The phone does support turn by turn navigation. First you must download a premium map. From the home screen press on All apps > Locations > Menu > Upgrade > Purchase Navigation and choose the map for the country you are in.

To use turn by turn navigation, please press on Menu from the home screen > All Apps > Car Panel > Navigation.

NOTE 1: Purchase Navigation is the 2nd icon located on the lower left side of the screen, it is the map with the arrow icon pointing upwards.

NOTE 2: An internet connection (Wi-Fi, GPRS/3G, etc.) is required to access this service. Your operator may charge for using GPRS/3G. Paid applications are available in specified territories only.

NOTE 3: This function requires Wi-Fi or GPRS/3G in order to work properly, and usage may shorten the handset's battery life. Please refer to "How can I prolong my handset's battery life?" FAQ.

Ergo, the only way to use turn by turn navigation on your Desire S, it to buy it from HTC.

Forced use of HTC Location - a summary

Since I've been pulling out my hair over this issue all of yesterday evening I thought I'd summarize the problem for those who don't have the phone (yet):

You can launch Google Maps, Google Navigation and HTC Locations manually and either will work.

When you tap an address in a contact's details this will launch HTC Locations and you cannot change this default. However, long-pressing the contact's picture and selecting the map icon from the pop-up menu will launch Google Maps. I've no idea what it does when you have multiple addresses per contact, though.

When you tap the location associated with an appointment, either in Calendar itself or in an event reminder this will launch HTC Locations, you cannot change this default and there's no known workaround.

Clicking a Maps link in Browser will present the usual choice that can/i] be changed afterwards via the usual "open with ... by default" mechanism.

So basically it looks like only HTC apps are affected at present but the Calendar issue is a deal breaker for me.

HTC have really gotten too bold and in-your-face with Sense, which is a shame really. :(
[HTC Desire S] igalan:
Using an alternative launcher also doesn't help with this, I'm using ADW.Launcher and when I check a contact's address, HTC Location pops up instead of Google Maps :( .

Right now my HTC Desire S has CoPilot Live, that I purchased on 2009, there's also Navigon, that I purchased a few months ago tired of not having newer maps for CoPilot. And now I have this HTC Location, besides Google Navigation, of course. How many GPS navigation programs could one possibly need? :D

BTW, Navigon lacks many features, that's why I decided to reinstall CoPilot. I'm hoping Navigon will catch up other platforms, feature wise; that or CoPilot will finally offer updated maps on a regular basis, so I can just leave one program.

root - than deinstall/deactivate the htc-navi (eg in titanium)

After that u have the choice (google maps - or your favorite navi installed)

Have to tell that the search engine of HTC Location (or whatever) is a piece of sh.t. Google maps would be much better. I can not understand why I'm not alloved to use GM from my calendar.
