[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iron@ss:
Err... yes... apologies for off topic.

Part of the problem, I'm given to understand, is that the CM7 "wonk" only affects certain people and cannot be replicated by Cyanogen who is working in the dark.

I switched to CM Nightly's just after Christmas and took the precaution (a throwback from my Symbian days) of completely wiping the phone and Sdcard before installing CM.

I then reloaded everything from scratch again (piecemeal) and used no back-up's whatsoever from the stock ROM. I also did this when moving from CM6.1 to CM7, just to be on the safe side.

In all that time I have not experienced the CM "wonk" on my Nexus One + H-Boot + 5.12.00.08 radio + CM kernel (or redstar & IR kernels) and using ClockworkMod.

I guess that until a common denominator for the "wonk" can be found and replicated the only other answer is to install the "dewonkificator", which seems to work for quite a few people, from here:-

Another option, that has worked for some, is to flash an alternative kernel after installing CM7. See here for a couple of popular kernels:-

hi I'm currently using spb shell 3.5 but I saw that there are very beautiful skin also for wad2. so my question is which is better between this two program??? i saw spb shell is more expensive than wad, but I want an opinion from those who have used their ;) which is the most customizable? which is the lightest at the startup?

thanks a lot :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Sp1tfire:
I used both. Each of them can be customized and there are plenty of themes floating around for both of them (a bit more themes for wad). I sticked to spb mobile shell cause it seemed a bit faster on my device (HTC Touch HD WM 6.1) and i think it's more eye-candy than wad :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Trekfan422991:
THROTTLE LAUNCHER!!!!!!!!

keep going back to it every time!!!!

and check out my themes for it...
[Windows Mobile Themes] zofox:
THROTTLE LAUNCHER is too heavy... spb is much faster :) becouse my viva doesn't have the 3d graphical accelerator, the cpu have 264 Mh and little ram, so it work slow (very slow) :( but i really like it ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Trekfan422991:
depends which theme you are running....
[Windows Mobile Themes] zofox:
i'm using the default theme that i found when i downloaded the program from the web site :) but it's very slow.... it takes 5 seconds only to switch between windows, if you have a faster theme i will try it :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Trekfan422991:
Like I said... throttlelauncher.com. click themes.. find a nice n simple qvga theme... I suggest switchblade. I think it is for qvga
[Windows Mobile Themes] zofox:
it doesn't exist :'( so when your theme (LACUNA 3.0 ) will support qvga version i will try it :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Willy89:
In my opinion spb shell is absolutely the best...especially if you use it with a sense theme... but i've never tried throttle launcher
[Windows Mobile Themes] claus1953:
SPB MObile Shell cannot be customized very easily, and one cannot create new widgets. Throttle Launcher is very easy to customize and also new widgets can be created easily.
[Windows Mobile Themes] henk-jan:
going back to the main question: WAD is very good customizable but SPB mobile shell is faster.
[Windows Mobile Themes] silkshadow:
I have been forced to live SenseUI free and have returned to some of my old skinning apps that I used pre-Sense. One of those is Wisbar Advance, made by Lakeridge who also makes WAD.

My recent experience with Lakeridge is they are dead. I made a few posts there and received no replies. My last post was a request for updated skinning info which has been there, unanswered, for more than a week. The forum is flat, there is no support there anymore and no one is skinning it anymore. Worse, all the links to old skins are all dead. Only a small pittance of skins that have been posted to Lakridge's forums are still available for it.

Because of this I created a skin myself, ironically enough. I actually released it today. Its here. Gratuitous plug: here is the promo flyer for it. But, I think no one is interested given the lack of activity around Lakeridge's site itself.

So a big caution with WAD. Its a dead end. Personally I've never liked WAD, I found it very buggy, but this was like 2 years ago. I have always liked Wisbar Advance though, and used it extensively before I got a HD2 and Sense.

That is not to say that SPB is any better, though. The difference is SPB abandoned their customers long ago, so nothing much is different. See the conversation I had with Vostradamus in his thread towards the end. Maybe because of this, the skinning community for Mobile Shell is very much alive here at XDA.

Now that I have been using Mobile shell for a few months, I have to say, thanks to the great artists at XDA, I find I like Mobile Shell far more than I like SenseUI. I will never be going back. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] abou_saleemah:
i like both...especially SPB mobile shell
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oehwarieme:
I flashed my phone to Caulkin Evio the latest version. and I really want to increase my battery life. I get decent battery life, but it trickles down to like 90% after using it for 5 min. What kernel should I download to keep everything running smooth. I appreciate links. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alaman68:
You could try a netarchy 4.3.1 cfs sbc. The sbc will charge it, just read up on it first. I use it all the time for sense roms.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
OK, here's what you do. Kernel selection IS important, but I do these 2 things that keep my battery fresh.

1) I do the battery conditioning techniques after any ROM I flash. The HTC method of an 8 hr charge, turn it off for an hour, unplug, turn it on for 2 minutes, power down, charge for another hour, followed by the 10 times unplugging, then plugging back in until the charge light turns green, unplug, plug back in, etc... 10 times.

2) I keep all my data turned off in case I need it. You can still text and make calls. When I need data or WiFi, I turn it on, do my thing, then off again, and use WiFi instead of Mobile Data when ever possible.

My phone has been off the charger for 4 hours now, made a few calls, and texts and I'm still at 100%.

Hello,

I released my new app SD-Booster on the google market. This app speed up your SD-Card up to 40 Times!

Enjoy a new feeling of speed anytime and everywhere you are on your Android phone.

Starting apps, listing your favorite music or just swapping data with a PC? SD-Booster speed up your phone.

Just search for "SD-Booster" on the market. It's for free :-)

Market-Link: https://market.android.com/details?id=de.mehrmann.sdbooster&feature=search_result

What, exactly, does this app do to speed up the SD card? We're suspicious because you provide no details, only wild claims that defy physics.

[Android Apps and Games] ghostrid3r:
What makes this app any different than the app posted in THIS THREAD ( see post #563/564 for app ) other than yours was released a day later and has a different app name?

Does it allow user to restore SD card cache to default settings (128kb)?
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
I'm also wondering if this does anything more than adjust the read_ahead_kb value... my guess is not
[Android Apps and Games] Akusari:
Well, this is just an app which works with read_ahead_kb value. No secrets.

I don't think i did wild claims. I just wrote what's been possible in the best case.

[Android Apps and Games] Akusari:
Yes, of course!

Well, i just found this idea and noticed there is only a shell script available. A app provides a better way for everybody :-) (Not just for adb/Shell experts)

BTW i'm planing some more features in the future :-)

Could you provide a logcat please ?

[Windows Phone 7 General] spokanedj:
If you have credits and purchase a song, the Zune Client either on the PC or the Phone will first ask if you want to use your credits, if you have any left. It will not charge your Credit Card first if you have available credits.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
i have never installed any custom rom yet.. i just saw cyanogenmod 7 was released and stable... heard it's the best rom out there... but is it worth installing it over htc desire's stock rom? i am starting to have some performance issues as i haev installed tons of apps on my desire.. will the performance be better on cyanogenmod 7?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theyau:
yes, it is worth it but it does not have sense so if you are a fan of it you might want to flash leedroid
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Define "performance".... apps opening faster? yes. Keep in mind, you will have a new launcher.

Battery life? Definately. I have about a 90% battery life improvement over my stock Desire ROM. Keep in mind, my phone is an east european model, compared to branded phones in the US, which means I didn't get bloatware installed.

Also, when you upgrade to CyanogenMod7, you can install setcpu, and overclock your processor. In addition, I run profiles to throttle back the processor speed if the battery reaches a certain percentage.

I can run, normal usage (without films) at least 2 days without recharge.

I run their RC3, just can't seem to think why I should update to their "stable" version. The only noticable thing I see, is that screen brightness doesn't seem to hold (get brighter). But a tiny annoyance.

Also, I would suggest updating the normal way to 2.29 first. I'm not an android programmer by any means, but have heard it also flashes the radio version,which can be important when flashing custom ROMs.

CyanogenMod has put tons of work into their ROM. Probably more than anybody out there. You won't be dissappointed.

There are a couple of other good ROMs out there as well. Oxygen, Gingervillian, and Muiu (spelling). But I only read about them.

If you have any problems, please ask BEFORE you brick your phone. :-)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Yeah, forgot about sense, but really, I don't see much of a difference between running stock HTC and CyanogenMod.

Or maybe I am ignorant (staring at too many posts for too many days) :-)

Sense has left me......
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
i am tempted for the battery life... maybe i will flash it tomorrow... it will be my first flash so... thinking well before doing it.. lol ... how's phone quality? are stuff like camera (recording and photo) improved?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
They added some options for video, mostly effects. I like the B/W for video. Camera quality is good. No difference from stock as far as I can see.

A lot more control as far as how your phone behaves (animations, etc). In fact, more options than I need.

You will miss some of the stock widgets though. And will have to get from the market.

Currently, I'm in the process of extracting the APK's from HTC's zip (between extreme beer sessions), and will see if they work correctly. They had a good Office app. and the weather widget.

If you do flash, you will need to also get the flash file for google apps and flash both at the same time. Then, afterwords, you can go to the market again, and get what you need.

Ohhhhh.... root your phone first.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
already rooted my phone.. download rom manager from market.. probably will be using it to install cm7
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
I prefer to install it the old fashioned way, rather than Rom Manager. Although it's nice to flash the clockwork recovery.

I copy it to the root, goto hboot, recovery, wipe all caches, then run both updates. Cyan and googleapps

Remember, to a recovery backup on your phone, BEFORE flashing any new ROM.

They have TONS of instructions here.

Good luck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
i am going to follow this guide

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Desire_(GSM):_Full_Update_Guide

is it for cyanogenmod 6 or is it also valid for cm7?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
installed cm7 finally.. got some issues but finally it's fine... only thing i couldn't install yet is app2sd... ext formatting done through rom manager doesn't seem to work... :( and i missed installation of the gmail app (i installed google addons for cm7) and when i started the phone, it asked whether to download and install gmail app.. i skipped thinking i would be able to install it later or recover it from my titanium backup...

i could not install it later.... and i messed up with my backup (i forgot to copy the license file...darn... i only copied the titanium backup folder thinking everything was there)..

first impressions.. i miss htc sense... not a big fan of adw launcher and most widgets not as good as htc sense ones... battery does not seem to be better.. is actually a buit worse than the stock rom (which was good imo)... maybe i need to re-calibrate my battery?

haven't installed a lot of apps yet so can't evaluate performance for now (performance was good on stock rom until i installed lots of apps and moved them to sd)... cm7 is more ugly than stock rom imo. will continue to use it and get more used to it... but overall.. i am missing stock rom... ( a lot of features seem missing or need fixing in cm7)
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
When I purchase the phone without contract will it be unlocked or will I have to pay to get an unlock code? Does anybody know? Also its 500 to buy without contract. what sort of taxes will be added to that?

[LG Optimus 2x] t-mizzle:
It's locked to T-Mobile. Either wait 90 days and T-Mobile will then provide the unlock code free of charge, upon request within 24h or pay to get it unlocked now.

Thanks Brian;)

Are unlock codes expensive?

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
Do you know how much instant unlock is?

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] t-mizzle:
Depends from site to site, shop around but unless they jack it up ( it's a known fact the device has AT&T HSPA+) it should be cheaper than the HDMI cable, strangely omitted from the package.
[LG Optimus 2x] nomisunrider:
I've been asking around and several people have informed me that if you purchase the phone for full retail, t-mobile will provide you with an unlock code. I also found this on wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIM_lock#United_States

"One of the two national GSM carriers, T-Mobile,[43] will unlock handsets for those with active account in good standing for at least 40 days and no unlock code request in the last 90 days. T-Mobile will also unlock a phone if the full retail price is paid and proof of purchase is provided through a faxed document. "
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
Cool,

Thats great, thanks mate;)

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] brian6685:
If we wait long enough they may even come up with a way to unlock the phone without an unlock code, kinda like how they did with the mytouch4g. Root brings some great things with it :)

Now does anybody know anywhere some application that is created somewhere, with explanation what each line code does, so i can explain it, as it would really take me long to learn creating apps for android, even though i can programm a bit in c++, and i don't have so much time.

I'm proud to present my new app: Notification Toggle.

With this app, you can place different toggles into your Android status/notification bar for quick access without having a dozen toggle-widgets on your homescreens ;)

You can choose which toggles to display in the settings of the app. You can also change the color of the icons as well as the icons completly to fit your systems design.

The app is for free in the Play Store, would be nice to get some feedback :)

Download

Some notes:

not every toggle will work on every device: especially the flashlight functionallity is very erratic and every manufacturer implemented it somehow different. you should install TeslaLED in addition to notification toggle

some settings aren't changeable by user apps, so it will bring you directly to the android settings (like GPS since Android 2.3)

if have a rooted device, you can install the app in /system/app to directly toggle GPS even on Android 2.3+ Click here for more information

Issues with the TalkBack service? See here

Some nice icons: (you can also use this app on Android 2.3+ to download the icons)

[Android Apps and Games] punkmonkey1984:
Works great, needs some theme support or basic coloring of the icons would be great,

Any chance that we can change stuff straight from the status bar, without having the pop-up menu like in CM7 status bar,

[Android Apps and Games] j4velin:
yeah, some skinning stuff is on my to-do list... edit: icons are now changable through menu -> skin

toggling without the pop-up is possible on some devices (e.g. on a htc legend with stock rom) but on most it handles only one click-event per notification. unfortunately it seems not to be possible for user apps to change that
[Android Apps and Games] 3rdstring:
Nice work. I'm just curious why you can't directly toggle GPS when something like SwithPro can.
[Android Apps and Games] j4velin:
well, there might be some hacks to somehow toggle the GPS, but the official google API doesn't allow you to do that.

actually, android itself turns the GPS off is no app is using it. so google intention is that you let the gps settings enabled and let the system handle turning it on and off
