Here you go. This setting is with the bigger dock and no background. The default setting looks just like the stock gingerbread launcher. (3 icons, grey background). The app drawer is the usual GB 4d one with added optional landscape-mode support.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] rcrh:
I know this is in the nexus s forum, but will this only install on that device? I have a mytouch 4g and really don't like the dock on the thc sense launcher. I've also looked at the generic gi.gerbfead launch available on the market but it also is limiting.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cellsafemode:
Tons of people want to be able to lock their phone in landscape mode (most default allow locking to portrait but none to landscape without hard keyboards).

We have plenty of people who roll android kernels here. Is it not possible to edit the bma150 accelerometer driver (i assume this is the one most/all android phones use.. am i wrong?) to report orientation based on a sysfs file. If the user writes a 0 to a certain sysfs file that the driver creates upon load, then orientation is like stock android behaves. If we write a "1" to the file, it could lock orientation in whatever position it's in and spoof any request for orientation to whatever this value is locked at. Each request would query the sysfs file and the user can write a "0" to unlock it.

Then we can create a widget/app that does the writing to the sysfs file. Obviously, this would only function for rooted phones.

Is this something that's not possible because the accelerometer drivers are different and closed source for each phone or what? I dont believe i'm the first person to come up with this idea so there has to be some reason why it's not done.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] winci45:
Hi,

install AutoRotate from the Market...it will enable or disable automatic rotation if you make a long press on the "search" button (or obviously if you start this app).

Bye
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] swjpilot:
I agree I would find this extremely useful to be able to lock the tablet in any of the 4 possible orientations. Currently autorotate simply let u toggle between the default orientation (landscape on my tablet) and auto rotate on. I would love to be able to lock rotation at any position.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cellsafemode:
autorotate on my phone would just turn off autorotate or turn it on. this means portrait mode or non-locked rotate. Not what i'm describing at all and not what most people want.
[Desire General] ibou92:
Hi everyone, i've been having problems with my GPS on my HTC Desire a8181 here and I just don't dont understand why.

The phone I had before (HTC Touch Diamond 2) had GPS as well and although it wasnt as powerful a phone as this baby, it actually got the job done for me.

My phone is rooted and "S-OFF"ed.

I bought this phone and since the day i got it i couldn't get GPS to work... ever!

I am using the LeeDroid 2.3d rom

I have tried all of the roms and just can't get it to work.

I even changed the gps.conf file to the asia pool as I am located in Bangladesh.

I get 0 views and 0 locks on GPS test :(

I would really appreciate any type of help as I have done everything i could to get it done, and paid a lot of money to get this phone!

Thanks in advance! :)
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
If it never worked it's most likely hardware related. Did it work on stock unrooted rom?

If not, Ruu and send back to hTc.
[Desire General] rubuthomson:

Yes you can use gps but depend upon the version and screen resolution.

If you download high resolution application it wan't run. and it also depends upon the version.
[Desire General] ibou92:
Well i never really tried it on stock, but im guessing the gps.conf file in the stock is going to be set to the europe pool while im in asia =/ so i don't think its gonna be any better :(

? I used gps test and gps status... and i don't think it has to do with the resolution??

Hello everyone!

First of all, the update is available in Belgium since yesterday or today.

Second, I've got a question :

Is there any link with rooting? I mean if I update my phone now, would I be able to use the way to gain root which I hope will be available soon ( Thanks again to all people working hard to tackle the issue!). As result, should I wait for the root before updating? Or the rooting shouldn't depend on the version of the Android?

Or both are possible?

Thank you very much and sorry if it was discussed already somewhere, tried to find it but in vain.
[HTC Incredible S] lalexl:
All the info you nne is on the forum.

Only way to root is via XTC-CLIP

I think the OTA is only going out to Europe region Incredible S. If you go to the HTC website the info about the OTA going out is only listed under Europe Support. Asia support doesn't mention any OTA.

I just wonder if the "step-by-step" applications list's purpose isn't better hiding the lags than the scroll list. I tried to use Launcherpro for a while and the scroll list is awful now !

As for the wifi signal, I saw other threads about it so I won't discuss it here.

[HTC Incredible S] Monkeybrew:
The GB update seems to have raised the "signal strength minimum value", so that it shuts down wi-fi at a higher signal strength than on 2.2.

it seems to be part of android 2.3

This should explain why when I tested Incredible S (with 2.2) and the Desire S (with 2.3) side by side, the Desire S dropped the wifi connection while the incredible S held the connection. (I was testing on a network with very poor signal)

Now, as it too got 2.3 - it seems the Incredible S has gotten as "bad" as the desire s.......

I hope many people report this to HTC. I did.
