More specifically, search for Fancy Widget v1.3.0. This is the version that still had the exact HTC Sense Clock from the stock 2.1 Aria. The newer versions dont have that exact clock anymore, but do have many variations on it.

<rant>

New user here... apparently I can't post to the development forum since I have less than 10 posts (really irritating). So I am stuck posting my question here instead of the thread where this is actually taking place.

</rant>

On page 80 of the VirusROM thread, some dude says to download "Launcher Pro Icons and Docks" to get the icons from VirusROM... I bought it, and still can't find them. Did I waste my money on his recommendation? If so, where can I get them? I don't mind extracting them myself (if possible)... maybe take a SS and crop them? If someone could point me in the right direction...

Thanks.
[Thunderbolt General] zhp pilot:
It's called DreamLyfe.Original. You can down the demo version for free. It contains the dock and 5 icons. There's also a paid version which contains a lot. More details here: http://www.dreamlyfe.xtreemhost.com/original.html

Hello all. Currently I have a Droid x as a backup phone and have the gingerbread leak installed. There is a nice category feature that allows you to put the apps in your drawer into, well, categories. Are there any apps that allow you to do this?
[Thunderbolt General] Zshazz:
Some different homescreen apps allow you to put things into categories, but you'll lose HTC widgets or launcherpro widgets if you use that.

Go Launcher can do this, I think.
[Thunderbolt General] magneticzero:
i remember an app called 'App Folders' on the incredible...maybe that will work for the thunderbolt too.
[Thunderbolt General] CorporateGoth:
I use an app called Folder Organizer.

It allows you to tag apps, and then you an put a widget on your home screen(s) that is anything from an icon that will open up into a view of all apps tagged with a specific label, or even a 4x1, 4x2, 4x3 or 4x4 'window' with those apps.

It does a lot more, but I specifically use it for the nice folder organization (including allowing you to order the apps yourself) ability.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
Ill give it a look. Thanks. I'm on adw ex and I really don't want to change from this launcher since its so nice. Ill check out that app though thanks.

[Android Software Development] xxmonsterx:
Why? It will be released when it's ready.
[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
This is dumb. Why would they release it before its done?

People are angry because the xoom has honeycomb, and honeycomb hasnt been released.

The xoom has an unfinished build of honeycomb. The SD card slot doesn't even work yet.

Also, when you say things like "found this floating around", when in reality you actually created it yourself... That doesn't help you gain any support.
[Android Software Development] LancerV:
Yea because google is somehow required to release honeycomb to the public, grow up
[Android Software Development] craby1925:
Okay, I know that everyone is infuriated by this petition. But there are still many devs that would enjoy making the source better by working on it now. Not to mention larger companies would like to have the source like barnes and noble and notion ink. It would just be nice if google posted the source with a disclaimker kf its problems
[Android Software Development] Rexton270:
Totally agree with you...
[Android Software Development] 1234568:
Google have some very good reasons for not releasing the source code. Mainly it's because of a key change in their strategy AGAINST the open source nature you love.

They are worried about issues like fragmentation and want to ensure anyone picking up an android device will feel its a 'high quality' device. By releasing the source code anyone can do what they like with it and some devices will fail badly. This makes android look bad. By keeping the source code in house Google can control who develops it and who can use it in their devices. This is all an attempt to maintain a 'high quality' feel to devices running android.

I know this goes against the open source nature everyone says Google has but at the end of the day they REALLY want to dominate the mobile OS war. I dont think a little online petition will send them running to think about their actions and then return to hand over the source code.
[Android Software Development] gersto:
Agreed its unfinished. Why would you release code on an unfinished product? This is not about open source or fragmentation, blah blah blah. Its the fact they shoehorned Android on a tablet to compete with the iPad. When the code is finished they'll release it. For now we have gingerbread :)
[Android Software Development] Meltus:
What? You are completely wrong.

Honeycomb ISNT FINISHED. It has nothing to do with fragmentation. Google's new stance wont even effect the end user or even rom devs much, its simply to stop big companies from slapping their own terrible UI over the top.

The honeycomb source will be released when its good and ready. I'm pretty sure Google are required by law to release it anywany so just be patient.
[Android Software Development] DanWilson:
Galaxy Tab 8.9 and the new 10.1 have TouchJizz 4.0 all over them.
[Android Software Development] bnevets27:
Its actually to discourage them from doing it.
[Android Software Development] 1234568:
Completely wrong! The chief editor of engadget agrees that there is huge pressure for Google to change their strategy. Have a look at this article he wrote...

http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/09/editorial-androids-problem-isnt-fragmentation-its-contamina/

He says exactly the same as me, except I took it one step further by suggesting this is the reason Honeycomb hasn't been released yet. I agree with you that honeycomb still has improvements to be made before its source is released. I just don't believe that's all there is to it. There are other considerations too!

Also note this was released today, after my my comment was made ;)

[Android Software Development] bunu:
Cyanogen himself said Honeycomb was probably a pile of hacks. Google needs to clean it up a little before we get a bunch of half assed horrible android tablets. I just wish they would put a hardware requirement and requires companies to update their devices at least once (like 2.2 -> 2.3) in a timely manner (like 2-3 months after the code is pushed to AOSP)
[A7 General] tomthebomb94:
When I set an alarm it doesn't go off unless my screen is on..is there a way to change that???
[A7 General] netstat_EVO:
No, sleep mode is not properly supported.
[A7 General] 5[Strogino]:
Agree with netstat_EVO. The only way is using BackLightKiller

It turns backlight off to 0.01 value (if value = 0 then tablet will go sleep)

It's not a best method, but something...
[Epic 4G General] APOLAUF:
Ever since I got the EB13, and subsequently, the EC05 update to Froyo, Bluetooth has been consistently crashing when I connect to my Jetta TDI's car kit. After lots of frustration, I began to investigate, using aLogCat, and found out the following.

My TDI's Bluetooth interface supports phonebook transfers. The car's interface, however, does not. Still, when I first pair the device, I receive a request to allow the phonebook to transfer, which of course I accepted. I thought nothing of this, as this already happened in DI18, without any problems. However, as of EB13, after I *end* a phonecall, I'll get the triple-buzz, and the BT stack will crash. I have to shut off the BT radio (which takes about 1 minute, as it sits there trying to shut down) and then re-enable and reconnect.

After running aLogCat, I found, pre-crash, that EVERY time I got in my car, the phone attempts to transfer the *entire* phonebook. Every single time I get in. This seems rather unnecessary, and slow, as each entry takes about 0.5 to 0.75 seconds to sync. For hundreds of contacts, my phone is sitting there for what could be an hour or more, syncing. It makes sense, then, that after I hang up on a bluetooth-enabled call, which likely got in the way of the transfer, that a buggy BT stack implementation crashes when it tries to resume. I confirmed this with aLogCat, seeing "ihup() call received!" entries showing up every second or so, after the stack crash. So, I decided to experiment.

I unpaired my car's BT system, and re-paired. This time, instead of accepting the phonebook authorization (which I can't use anyway in my 2009 TDI), I denied the request. It popped up again, and I denied again. (Now, I just simply ignore it, and it goes away.) The result is that I have *never* lost my BT connectivity to the car after a phonecall since I started doing this. Obviously, Samsung has introduced a bug, but because most people's headsets don't support phonebook functionality, it hasn't shown up.

So, if you're having the "I just ended a call, my phone triple-buzzed, and now my headset has disconnected" problem, remove the pairing, and don't allow phonebook transfer. Hopefully this can be of some help to people.
[Epic 4G General] aindfan:
Thank you! That triple buzz was really starting to get to me (to say nothing of how unsafe it is to fiddle with re-pairing on the highway), and I couldn't even figure out a starting point to troubleshoot. I use a Parrot Mki system that does support phonebook transfer, but I'll try deselecting "Always allow" the next time I'm in the car aster permitting at least one sync.

I could swear that I only started noticing this with the recent Froyo builds, but I wasn't certain enough about it.

Thanks again!

Hey all,

[Nook Color General] cosine83:
The reasoning behind keeping the Honeycomb source closed right now is pretty sound, imo. They know that the Android community will hack it until it will run on phones. It was not developed for phones. So, what they are doing is cleaning up the HC code so that when it hits AOSP it won't be a pile of hacks and will work well on phones as well as tablets. None of the devices HC is coming out on from corporate partners are putting HC on devices smaller than 7 inches. Google will post it when it's ready for AOSP and the Android community.

or ice cream, more likely (if it turns out to be the merging of phone and tablet versions of android).
[Nook Color General] MedSchool26:
Have we all turned into "Google Fanboys" - like google can do no wrong?

It should not be up to Google what the android community does with HC. Who cares if they put it on a phone and it doesn't work? Then....uh....people won't put HC on their phones.
[Nook Color General] arrjaytea:
I really don't think that's it at all.

I mean, have you used a Xoom? That isn't exactly what I'd call a flawless operating system.

Also, this sense of entitlement people are displaying - as if Google owes them the Honeycomb source because a single tablet has been released running it - has been really hard for me to wrap my head around.

Regardless, all of this probably belongs in the HCGenDis thread, so I won't be surprised if this is closed/deleted.
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
It's not up to the android community what Google does with HC. We don't own Google. Google doesn't owe us anything. As much as I'd like to have HC source code now, we just have to wait. This me, me, me, now, now now entitlement mentality doesn't help.

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] xdabr:
Most interpretations of "free software" (open source's older, wiser, quarreling brother) would say that the handset makers and/or Google do owe Xoom owners the source code.

Which is why, I guess, they use "open source" licenses that don't technically require they do that.

It still grates against the "spirit" of the licenses to some of us.
[Nook Color General] poofyhairguy:
I was VERY pissed about the lack of AOSP Honeycomb, then I tried a Xoom.

SD cards don't work, it is VERY laggy (even with a dual core overclocked), and many apps force close.

I have come to the conclusion that the REAL reason Google held back Honeycomb is because if people looked under the hood they would find maybe the worst hack-job of an OS in modern times. This would blemish the Android tablet market before it really starts, piss off Xoom owners that paid a premium to be beta testers, and give the Apple Zealots in the world a new drum to beat.

So to avoid that, Honeycomb is closed until its a real OS. I just wish Google was more upfront about their reasons.

[Nook Color General] notinterested:
What in the world are you talking about?

The ONLY right interpretation of it is that they are required to give the kernel source code. Anything THEY coded is entirely up to them.

Not sure if you're just trolling, but I didn't say anything contrary to what you did?
[Nook Color General] combustiblemonkey:

Right, and I already said they weren't required to provide source code because of the licenses (Apache and GPL2) they chose. Is this a joke or something?
[Nexus S General] dman777:
I used to have an Epic. I always suspected that screen on the epic was a little diff. than the Nexus S. I hated the Epic and I like the Samsung Nexus S alot more! But yesterday, my coworker has an Epic and downloaded the same wallpaper as I have. Then we compared phones with the same wall paper and brightness. His screen had richer contrast, was brighter without being washed out, and seem to have better detail. I don't understand why this is...but I wanted to throw this out here.
[Nexus S General] Si_NZ:
Have you tried any other colour settings?

Take a look here.
[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
I've never seen the nexus s screen. Even though I think the epic screen is beautiful eye candy, it exaggerates how things look in real life. I don't know for a fact but I would guess that color, tint, and saturation have been cranked and tweaked so as to make people ooh and ahh when they look at it. A picture could easily be manipulated to make the colors really stand out. Maybe if you were tripping on LSD, the colors you see might look like the screen on the epic but that's not how things actually look like.

I was wondering a similar question just before I popped into the forum. You being a previous epic owner, what similarities, differences, and other observations are you finding out with the nexus? I'm very interested in your opinions because I used to have an epic and wonder how the experience might be when comparing the two phones.
[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
One more question/concern.

With the nexus s, if you download the programs livo recorder and virtual recorder, what happens? When you play back after recording audio on the high quality settings, does the audio studder and skip like it did on the epic? The HTC evo and shift are the only two phones I've used that can make flawless recordings and have very sensitive mics. I've had emails with the devs of their respective programs when the epic came out. The epic was very bad with high bitrate audio recording. If I would make a recording of me counting the seconds on the program as it was recording, it would studder, skip, and jump ahead a few seconds constantly. It was kinda like a mix between listening to a scratched CD skipping and watching Max headroom and his glitching while speaking.

If you get the time sometime, publish your results. Also, does the video recorder crash, like the epic, when its on its highest resolution settings? I know it can't do HD but I'm still wondering. Thanks

[Nexus S General] dman777:
Other than the screen on the Epic, I hated the Epic. I didn't like the keyboard, the side button, or the software. I love the Nexus S...even if the screen is slightly less than the Epic(which probably could be fixed with voodoo color adjustments). However, I think I might sell mine and buy the Sprint Nexus S simply because Sprint does not have a data cap.

I hate Tmobile for tricking me in unlimited data. I think they are ATT.

Hi all experienced cooks here, can I ask, how do I edit the automatic brightness levels manually, because on cm7 I've already set my values and I'm thinking of coming back to arhd, but I'm not sure if this is possible? Much help is appreciated!
[Desire HD Android Development] lukesky:
this is the wrong place to ask questions man.. this thread will probably be moved soon..

if u want to adjust auto brightness on sense roms, it's a lot more complicated than on cm7, i believe u have to decompile framework-res.apk and edit /res/values/arrays.xml. But to what values specifically, u're on your own..
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
Here's a small guide by enf70: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10660706&highlight=auto-brightness#post10660706

He's describing the procedure for leedroid's rom but it's just the same for arhd.

Important note: a lot of themes include changes in the framework-res.apk, so if you want to use a theme make sure that either the framework-res is not touched or change it again based on that guide.

btw: could you share your settings for cm7? I'm using it now and it'd be much appreciated. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Frostyeo:
Sorry I didn't know which should this be in, please advise where should I ask this?
[Desire HD Android Development] Frostyeo:
With the default levels of brightness I edited the 3rd column values to

1

20

35

40

45

50

55

60

65

75

85

140

These are my values for relatively energy saving xD so the screen in normal conditions with brightness at around 15-25% then in sunlight it will go to about 55%, because you don't really need 100% brightness to look at words, you can edit them accordingly to your needs

Note, tick the Allow light decrease, so that when the conditions are not that bright, it will decrease screen brightness according to the levels you have set, and the decrease levels I've set it to 70%, working qquite well for me :)

Hope this helped!
