[Desire HD General] mathrania:
I have a question, probably Dumb for me.....but if someone could help me out..

I installed Launcher Pro Plus on my DHD, but when i pressed the HOME button, it asked me to use " HTC Sense" or "Launcher Pro"..... , i selected "HTC sense" and set is as default. Now i want to use Launcher Pro Plus, but there isnt any app with that name, and there are no settings to use it.

I am sure someone can guide me as how can i set "Launcher Pro plus".

Thanks in Advance.
[Desire HD General] Flussen:
You can either download "clear default home" from the market or you can go to settings-> applications-> manage applications->all applications and look for HTC Sense (there are 2 apps with this name, take the bigger one). Click on it and scroll down a little bit. There should be a button calles Clear Defaults or something like that (cant tell exactly cuz my rom is in german). After pressing this button press your home button. Now you should be able to reselect your desired launcher ;)
[Desire HD General] mathrania:
It is surely helpful to me.

Vielen Dank! .....:) is it correct in German ?
[Desire HD General] biohaz55:
Perhaps a better option is to download 'Home Switcher' from the market. This will allow you to switch from Launcher Pro to Sense and back (and any other launchers) without having to reset defaults.
[Desire HD General] Flussen:
Kein Problem ;) and yes, it's correct.

Using home switcher is also an option, but it doesexactly the same as clear default home afaik
[Desire HD General] mathrania:
Thanks man!!! I have installed it....

is it normal?
[Thunderbolt General] cuguy:
That sounds like what I have right now.

My phone is rooted and I have it unplugged since 9AM. It is now 3PM and down to 50%. This is what I did:

Bluetooth Headphone + music for about 1hr

Downloading apps + updating + reinstalling + backups + uploading for about 30 min

Texting + a few emails + fruit ninja + angry birds + GBA emulator for about 30 min

I'd save more battery if it wasn't for the data+CPU intensive activities.
[Thunderbolt General] hammer4203:
Goto the verizon store and talk to the manager. Tell him to push the hybrid prl to your phone. Mine is 13006 & battery is at 80% (off charge 6am) at 3:34pm. Looks like a major fix for me and the wife's thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt General] ERIFNOMI:
Try Battery Monitor Widget. I was surprised to see that my phone uses significantly less power while idle on 3G than connected to WiFi.
[Thunderbolt General] funkybside:
I spoke. With corporate about that, tier 2. They said prl updates automatically on boot and the is no way to push a specific version. They also said prl is for voice roaming in non VZW covered areas and isn't related to the 4g radio, as only VZW towers support LTE.
[Thunderbolt General] cuguy:
What does your usage look like? If I just open up my phone for emails and text (very light usage), I lose about 10% every 4 hours or so. Also I think you can edit your tower preferences by dialing " ##778# " . I'm not sure if it's the same but sounds quite similar.
[Thunderbolt General] moosez3:
What are tower preferences exactly, and what would they do to help battery life?
[Thunderbolt General] hammer4203:
The reps on the phone are full of it! I have been on the new prl and it doesn't change when I reboot or bsttery pull. It has something to do with wether or not you are in an area that use to be alltel. If u goto the store they should know what ur talking about. If not have them call the Hattiesburg, MS store.
[Thunderbolt General] mojonation1487:
wow, i unplugged my phone at 5AM. It's now 1030AM and i'm down to 32% battery. Sent 4 texts and checked email twice. THATS IT. What the hell is wrong with my battery!!!!!
[Thunderbolt General] LeoD:
Actually yeah that does sound about normal. There are of course alot of variables when it comes to battery life. What you actually use and leave running, how much and how often you use it and of course how strong a signal you might have or not have.

I get better battery life than that however there are a number of things I remove from my phone that I do not use and I shut just about all syncing off. Naturally that will make a difference.

I see so much about battery life on our phones and what confuses me is what do people expect? Really these smartphones are just about like walking around with a laptop in your pocket. How much time of continuous use can one expect to get out of that? I know most laptops you would get maybe a few hours of use on the standard batteries after a few months of use. I guess thinking of it like that are we really doing that bad?

Sure I'd love to see a battery that will last 2 days and I can use my phone constantly but at least at this point and time that simply not going to happen.

I know you are not complaining here but I just wanted to vent a little bit lol ;)
[Thunderbolt General] LeoD:
you have to have something running constantly on that phone. might want to pick up a app in the market and check what is running that thing like that. system monitor is one app and there are others as well. either that or you just have a bad battery but not likely
[Thunderbolt General] mojonation1487:
Thats the thing, I only have gmail syncing and weather syncing once an hour. I'll download that app and see whats up. This phone is pissing me off

EDIT- What app is it? I can't find a system monitor in the market
[Thunderbolt General] Pender1:
Try watchdog lite. Just don't set it to update constantly, it'll eat your processor if you do.
[Thunderbolt General] LeoD:
System panel or that watchdog would work I've only used system panel tho
[Thunderbolt General] robhep3:
Okay, I know I'm not from the TB side as I have an Evo, but one thing to keep in mind is that if you leave 3g/4g turned on, it constantly tries to find a superior signal. Use wifi where available. Also, turn 3g and 4g off when you don't need them, and don't leave stuff set to sync on its own. Other things that can be done to improve battery life are lowering your screen brightness and adjusting the screen timeout/sleep interval. The lower each of these are set, the more battery you will save. If your screen is always on, it's constantly drawing battery, obviously. Also, in my experience, the HTC charging kernels have a tendency to be a bit finicky when it comes to charging 90-100%. Sure, your phone may show 100% charged, but if you pull off the charger and it drops 3-8% in the course of 5 minutes, it clearly wasn't 100% charged to begin with.

However, if you meant to say that you were following these guidelines and still having this issue, I would say you very well may have a defective/weak battery.
[Thunderbolt General] glorysk87:
root your phone and download imoseyons leankernel.

i can get over 24 hours of battery time pretty easily as long as i'm not using it heavily, and that's with an overclocked cpu to 1.4 ghz.
[Thunderbolt General] moosez3:
i have been turning APN off via extended controls and my battery life has gone to bearable to good! I am really happy about it b/c the widget works perfectly and turns on and off in virtually seconds, and completely turns off all radios other than the one for calls and texts.

So until I have root and am able to adjust the battery life in that way this is working great.
[Thunderbolt General] MYxdaUSERNAME:
here's mine on das bamf 1.2 and ziggy's april 6th kernel at 1497/368 on smartass governor w/ 2750 battery...mediaserver was me streaming mecanto over 3g for 4-5 hours, also used pandora over 3g, but only for an hour or so...no wifi used in the last day..radio set to cdma auto so it doesnt look for 4g.

brightness and sync on whatever I want, I keep beautiful widgets at 15 minute update, not sure anything else syncs...mail seems to sync when I switch to the screen with the mail widget or whenever I open the mail or gmail app..
[Thunderbolt General] crazed_z06:
Yea, I just posted on another board that I will not be able to stay with this phone. Im going to have to shell out 600-700 for an off-contract Bionic. My phone was 100% at 7AM this morning.. After sitting in the car all day at work, 10 hours later, it's down to 75%. I figure that's not bad.

Well in the 4 hours since Ive been off work, Ive made ONE 30min phone call and sent 20 texts. The phone is dead. Didnt do any surfing. One call, twenty texts.

This is unacceptable.

EDIT: Yes, I checked the partial wake usage and nothing is running in the background. I have nothing syncing either. There's only like 5 things in the battery info screen.. Phone call, Display, Phone Standby, Cell Idle, Android System, and Android OS. The single 30 minute voice call accounts for 47%, 30 minutes of Display is 21%, and the idle and standby are the rest.
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
ive called verizon about the hybrid prl they just lol its an auto update they cant just push it to your phone maybe your in a 4g lte area but im not
[Thunderbolt General] seandalton0:
Ditto, I'm running more or less the same setup. I have 3 email accounts, activesync, beautiful widgets, sports tap, and a bunch of other stuff syncing and I haven't had a single problem since I switched over to Das BAMF. I'm running 1.4 Remix right now with 1228/245 on smartass. I leave it on wifi at home/work, disabled 4G, no auto-brightness.

There's so many tricks out there, but installing a lean kernel and de-bloated ROM is KEY.

Don't know how to do that, but wondering why you use Amazon? They don't have anything you can't find in the Market, do they?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
for the daily free app which is normally a pay app.

I also would like to know if its possible. I just download the free app to have it lol.

I used it to get Angry Birds Rio. Had to give them credit card info to get a free app, lol. Of course, 2 days later it was in the Market. Wonder if I download from the Market if the game results will be overwritten. Oops. Sorry for the thread jack.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahurley:
if you backup the amazon rio app with tibu, then uninstall it and install google's rio, you can restore the app data which will load your progress from the first game to the second
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sailzfast:
Awesome. Thanks. I'm going to close that Amazon account.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docflower:
So youre saying if I use tibu and dl the free version of an app when I restore app and data it will be the paid app in place of free app and the app will be disassociated with amazon?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sailzfast:
I haven't tried it yet, but sounds like you can backup your free Amazon apps with Tibu, uninstall free Amazon apps, get rid of Amazon app store, download replacement apps from Market, restore app data from Tibu. Not sure if this would work with Amazon paid apps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
It told me I needed amazom app store to use that app lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allmaechtig:
The Amazon store puts the apk file on the phone. If you go into my files and go to Android/com.amazon**/cache you will see a strung of apks that you have downloaded and installed... you don't need the amazon store to keep the apps in stalled anyway...

The files in the amazon folder are oddly named like vapdn738840.apk but you can rename them on your computer once you figure out what they are. And if you looking for a place for free apps I would check out applanet or blackmart

Good Luck

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] junkrobot:
Hey, I'm using this with Phiremod V5.2 and scrolling in the app drawer is really slow, for some reason. LauncherPro is smooth as silk and videos I've seen of people using Zeam's drawer on YouTube look really smooth as well.

Anyone have any clues as to why this might be the case?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] TheXclusive814:
Had the same issue...I like that you could add more than 5 shortcuts on the launcher, but the app drawer just lacked the snappyness of ADW to make it be my new launcher
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] junkrobot:
Yeah, I really like Zeam's dock and its handling of widgets. LauncherPro has some rather annoying quirks, so I'm still weighing it out. I don't really even use the app drawer that often, so I guess it's not a big deal, but still. Maybe I should mess with ADW some more.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Coldboot:
I experienced the same issue with Zeam and CM7. The app drawer might be smooth for a couple of swipes but then will stutter or even get stuck sometimes.

I like Zeam because it's so streamlined but have to stick with Launcher Pro for now.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] vizographic:
Yeah, I had to give up on Zeam also. The app drawer scrolling stutter made it unusable. Launcher pro just keeps pulling me back in, despite its sporatic fc's on boot up. I guess there is always something. Shame about Zeam though, cause I really like the name Zeam, don' ask me to explain why.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] inportb:
This is still problematic, but Zeam gained a new horizontal-scrolling application grid today that works a lot more smoothly. I prefer the vertical scroller, though.

Strangely, Zeam has always been silky smooth on my G1.

For any of you who have bought a Nexus S *in Canada* from any of the carriers - Bell, Telus, Rogers, Fido, Koodo, Virgin, Mobilicity, Wind, Videotron...

Can you confirm that your phone came SIM-unlocked out of the box? Or does anyone have signs of a carrier lock?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
all Nexus phones are unlocked
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc fan89:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Nope they weren't - it was confirmed that the Mobi N1 came unlocked. Don't know about Videotron's, but I presume the same.

Still, Bell/Telus/Rogers just don't seem like the kind of companies to allow themselves to sell something without a SIM lock. Which is why I'm asking about the NS.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C0mbe:
I can personally confirm the Telus NS is unlocked (sim) using both a virgin and Rogers Sim.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinan:
Was told repeatedly by the Telus salesman that the phone was locked. He allowed me to try my sim and it got a signal so I'm pretty sure ALL nexus S phones are unlocked despite what Rogers/Telus/Bell are claiming. They just automatically respond "the phone is locked" because they're trained sheep.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sal14m:
I can confirm that the Nexus I purchased today at Future Shop on Rogers was completely unlocked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfksc:
And they've probably been told to spew that disinformation so people will buy from their own carrier rather than somewhere else at a cheaper price, and to prevent users from travelling with a prepaid SIM card.

I got mine last night from a Telus store. It's unlocked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfksc:
I stopped by a local Telus store last night hoping to play with a demo, but they claimed they didn't have any and no demo. The manager told me they won't have any available for sale until April 15th. I then stopped by a BestBuy and they didn't have a demo and was told they don't have any stock but would sell me one outright from Telus stock if they had it. Futureshop has some, but they said they don't have the outright/no contract SKU in their system (bogus info as they want a contract sale). Other carriers are not selling until next week, even if they have stock.

This really is a messy launch...I don't mind waiting but the complete lack of dissemination of information, inconsistent sales information, and staggered launch dates is not very flattering for Google. And I can only imagine how customers will react to this sloppiness.

:(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr234:
You can't buy from robelus without either a multi-year contract or severely over-inflated prices, and you can't buy from anyone else without paying full price up front. Nobody loses a dime by buying from the wrong carrier.... except for the carrier who lost the sale.

Note about these phones... as I understand it, there are TWO versions being sold in Canada... the AWS version (sold by Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron), and the PCS version (sold by robelus). It is BETTER TO BUY THE AWS VERSION!!! The PCS version will NOT WORK with Wind, Mobilicity, or Videotron. The AWS version will only not work with BELUS, it will work with everything else.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfksc:
Don't be so biased...the AWS version is only useful to those on 1700/AWS band, so obviously it's the one to get if you're with Wind or the others. If you're with Bell or the others then the obvious choice is the NAM version. And the 850/1900/NAM version also works in Europe just like the AWS version as both have 2100 radios.

Buy the phone that matches your carrier's frequencies. There are plenty of these to go around. If you switch to another carrier, trade it. Or hold out for something like the LG G2X which will be quad-band UMTS 850/AWS/1900/2100 *and* dual-core.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matridom:
When i went in on Thursday night, I was told the same thing. They had stock, but it was not in the system. This is true for consumers. Fortunately, I'm a corporate customer and a quick call to my sales rep got everything sorted out, turns out the business sku's ARE in the system. After about 1/2 hour, i walked out of the store with my phone.

I hope you where not the guy behind me who was told "No, you can't have one" by the sales rep while i was unboxing mine. I felt really bad for that guy.

Also keep in mind that not all telus stores are the same. Look in your phone book for Telus and go to one of those stores, not on of the "Telus by XXXXX". When you get into a store owned and operated by Telus, you can get a lot more done.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
I'm hearing reports that customers who use their Nexus S with a different SIM than the provider who sold it are having a strange problem - the phone always thinks it is roaming, and they have to enable data roaming to get mobile data. This sounds vaguely familiar... didn't the original build of the Nexus S have problems on Wind and Mobi until it got an update?
