Try downloading apps like pure messenger widget or pure calendar widget or pure news widget. They can be themed to look like the ones in sense ui, which is what the launcher pro ones are based off of.

I take it from you answer that there's no other way to use launcher pro plus's widgets in other launchers, right?

Hi everybody!

so i have a rooted device running xwjv3 -latest official 2.3.3- and i really need to share my laptop internet with my sgs, cuz thats the only way to get internet on the phone.

so how do i get ad-hoc enabled in 2.3.3?

OR is there any sharing ways but ad-hoc so the phone can detect the access point?

by the way, computer's running windows 7

Ps. i already checked the wpa file and stuff, dont seem to be working on gingerbread.

if u find the solution plz help me
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
No need to modify wpa_supplicant binary

I changed data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf instead of wpa_supplicant. I added ap_scan=2, then set the adhoc network to

priority=1

mode=1

then pushed back the modified file. chown ownership back to system.wifi.

I had root access through adb. So root wasn't necessary for me.

Advantage: Safer than modifying system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant binary. Saves you the trouble of compiling modified wpa_supplicant or finding a compiled one for your platform.

Drawback: This is just a temporary solution.You'll have to repeat this process for every new adhoc network as it doesn't enable adhoc forever. It is good for connecting to your home network or other know networks, but if you want to connect to any adhoc network you scan,then this is not your method. Because, wpa_supplicant.conf will be overwritten every time you scan a new network.

Here is an easier alternative to the android to pc adhoc connections without doing anything on the device, only with a PC application ...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
Access Point vs Adhoc

Thanks for the suggestion jota. But, the program suggested by you works in a different way. It creates an Access Point mode Hotspot( a virtual router ) to which Android can directly connect. An application called Connectify can create Access Point mode Hotspot for Windows 7 and above.

What we're discussing here is about another type of Hotspot- adhoc mode. AP mode hotspots are better and newer Hotspot standard, but Windows versions prior to Windows 7 and Nokia Symbian phones with wifi(using softwares like Joikuspot) cant create AP mode hotspots. It's possible to create AP in linux, but not easy for beginers as there's no simple program like Connectify available to do this. You'll have to do some command line works. For those who're stuck wid adhoc networks, this thread is a possible solution.

When on stock ED01 or Evil Fascination 3.3.2 I get FCs when I run Titanium BU. I Heimdalled DL09 and upgraded to ED01 via the OTA process. TiBU FCed when I loaded it on the stock system. I then flashed Evil Fascination 3.3.2 and still got FCs on TiBU. Any ideas how to fix this? I "fixed" TiBU by restoring my nandroid of SC 2.9.2 on top of stock ED01.

***** Updated June 3, 2011 *****

Thanks again to everyone who helped with the beta testing. Just wanted you to know that I just posted version 1 to the Android Market. It's free and you can get it here:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.greggreno.whattowatch

-Gregg

***** Updated May 5, 2011 *****

Uploaded a new version to the same location. Here are the changes:

- Improved the scrolling position after adding more titles to the bottom, but still not perfect

- Fix bug leaving the Netflix registration window open

- Set maximum title list retrieval to 50 at a time

- Fixed bug with extra Edit Search Criteria icon showing in apps list

- Fixed size and look of loading images

- Added ability to turn off ads by buying an unlocker from the Android market

Netflix still hasn't fixed their problems with TV series and getting the data right in their API

***************************

Hi all. I've been working on a new Honeycomb only app called What To Watch, and I'm looking for some beta testers. Anyone interested in helping out?

I wanted a better way to browse for Netflix movies and also manage my queues. For example, I wanted to do something like "show me all Sci Fi movies available on Instant with a 3 star rating or higher, rated PG-13 or R, sorted by release date". I couldn't find any other web site or app to do this, so I figured I would build it myself.

There are 3 main sections:

1) My Searches - this is where you can create your own searches and save them for later. I create two to start with. Click on one and it will display the list in the panel on the right, 25 at a time. Once you click on one of the My Seaches items, you can edit it by long pressing it or clicking the Edit button at the top. Note that this uses a beta API from Netflix called OData. It's the only API that lets you do sophisticated searches like this, but unfortunately it is subject to change from Netflix and it may not always be current with the main Netflix library.

2) Netflix Queues - what you would expect. For example, what is in your DVD and Instant queues.

3) Top Lists - this comes from the Netflix web site rather than the API. It shows what the top titles are for each category. This method won't show the star ratings until you drill into a particular title.

You can download the apk here (note this is case sensitive):

http://jigawattlabs.com/temp/WhatToWatch.apk

Known issues:

This is the first release. Should probably call it an Alpha!

Authenticating with Netflix isn't quite right yet. You may wind up with the web browser still open after exiting the app, and you may get another instance of the app. But just exit everything and it should be ok

There is a bug with the Netflix API with TV series and specials. This is a problem on their end, so you might get some unexpected results when browsing TV shows

I would appreciate any and all comments in terms of general UI impressions, bugs, performance, usability.

You can reach me directly at gregg@greggreno.com.

Thanks!

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mr Bland:
I just tried it out, seems to work great. I just wish there was a way to actually watch Netflix on my zoom :(
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Thanks for trying it out. I'd love to be able to watch netflix movies as well, and I think we will see that at some point. Hopefully once Netflix makes that possible, I can integrate that into the app.

I'm also going to implement a friends feature, where you can mark your favorite movies and share it with friends, and see what their favorites are.

Comments from other folks are welcome!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] chbennett:
My first impression of the app is that it has some shared elements with amazon's web page, which is great. But the reason I say first impression is that it isn't registering with netflix.

Sent from my Xoom the way it should be, rooted and with SD card.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
chbennett - thanks for testing. Can you give me some more info on the problem you had registering? When clicking almost anything it should prompt you to register. If you say ok, it should take you to a Netflix web page. You may have to log in and then it should prompt you to give permission to the What To Watch application. If you approve,it should take you back to the app and you should be able to run any of the searches on the left.

Where did you run into problems?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Kozdoba:
I installed it on my XOOM. Log in into Netflix without any problems. Searching also good, but could be good to add additional information about movie like Availability (for some of it shows when it will be available in stream).

It's a pity that we still missing Hulu or Netflix apps on our XOOM. Get used to watch it on my iPad(
[Xoom Themes and Apps] chbennett:
Basically all it did for me (ill try it again) was stall out on the "registering with netflix" in app pop up, going no further.

Edit: still doesn't work

Sent from my Xoom the way it should be, rooted and with SD card.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bishop72:
Great app! Forcecloses when I click on New Instant Choices under Top Lists category

Also when going into the Instant Que list; I click one of the movies and it takes me to the description. I can also click on Similar, Drop from Instant or Add to Disc. If I choose Drop from Instant and click the back arrow it still shows in the Instant Que listing. Can we have the option of clicking the Instant Que button on the top left corner in the movie description to go back to the Instant Que listing and if we do happen to press the back arrow could the Instant Que listing automatically update with the removal of the movie?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Kozdoba - I will be adding additional information like directors and awards, but I'll also look at adding availability. Do you have an example title in mind I can test with?

bishop72 - thanks for finding the problem with the New Instant choices. I'll look at that one, but it may be because that's a really big list and I'm not handling it correctly. Also, good idea about removing titles from the instant titles if you click the remove from instant button. But the problem with that for me is if I remove it from the list, it should probably close that title window because it's no longer in the instant queue. Maybe someone hit the remove button by mistake and they want to re-add it?

Also I notice that there is some type of caching going on with the adding and removing from queues. When you add or remove, it does that action and then sends another request to netflix to get the current status. But it may not register that quickly. So you may hit remove from instant, and then I get back a status from Netflix saying it's still in the instant queue. If you click it again, it shows up ok.

I appreciate the feedback - good or bad!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Kozdoba:
Look this series soon will be available online.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] dbolton:
downloaded the apk to nook but just got a parse error failed to load. I really love my netflix and was looking forward to tablet style look on nc.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kiteOregon:
The app installed fine, the Netflix login auth worked fine as well. The fit & finish look good as well. Some of the images and searches render a bit slow, but that could be my wifi. I will play with it more through the day and report back.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kiteOregon:
I believe i heard that Netflix was going to do a live stream with Netflix only productions, so a Top List of Netflix Original or something would be good.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Everyone - thanks for testing and for the comments. I really appreciate it! It's interesting it worked for some but didn't work for dbolton. Not sure why that is.

dbolton - can you post a screen shot of your error, or email it to me at gregg@greggreno.com? I also took a few screen shots so you can see what it should look like:

http://jigawattlabs.com/w2w/screen1.png

http://jigawattlabs.com/w2w/screen2.png

kiteOregon - once Netflix posts a list of their own content in some type of list, I'll definitely look at adding that. For the Top Lists section, I'm just using the Netflix RSS feeds linked from the bottom of the page. Modified it somewhat to return no more that 50 at a time though since it would load too slow.

Thanks again!

-Gregg
[Xoom Themes and Apps] garyh2:
Thus far all is working well. I really like the interface too, great job!

I am going to keep tinkering with it and let you know if I run into any issues or have any suggestions.

Thanks for the great app!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
I heard that Netflix was having problems with authorization from 3rd party apps. As a work around the suggest launching your browser and log into Netflix. Leave the browser running, and then launch the app and try to register again. Can you let me know if that works?

-Gregg
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Thanks! Working to add more features.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] garyh2:
somehow I now have a 'edit search criteria' icon (same as main apps icon) in my app drawer as if it were a separate app.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vidriera:
My initial reaction is very positive, but I have the same issue as garyh2. When I tell it to uninstall, I am informed that it is part of the main application so obviously I left it there. This is a weird bug though...

The only other thing I noticed is that the placeholder icons that appear before titles and images populate are slightly larger than the images and titles that replace them. This doesn't really cause problems but is slightly distracting.

I really like the power search function and the ability to save searches and haven't really seen this functionality elsewhere. Good job!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Thanks garyh2 and vidriera - ill take a look at that. The edit screen is a separate activity rather than a fragment, which is probably its somehow getting its own icon. Just one of the differences with honeycomb I need to figure out.

Also good point about the loading graphic. I'll fix that too.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] garyh2:
You're welcome!

Another thing I've noticed is when I'm scrolling through multiple pages of a search and it gets to where it has to load more data it has a tendency to jump a whole row down so I have to scroll back up to see where I was.

This may be an intended behavior but I think maybe just loading the extra data and leaving the current position as the same after the reload completes would be more ideal.

I still love this! Thank you!!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Yup, I know what you mean. I'll actually have to figure out how to get back to the exact position I was since I actually refresh the whole list after loading the new data.

I'm hoping to release the first version soon after Google IO

[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Hi all - just posted an updated version here: http://jigawattlabs.com/temp/WhatToWatch.apk

- Improved the scrolling position after adding more titles to the bottom, but still not perfect

- Fix bug leaving the Netflix registration window open

- Set maximum title list retrieval to 50 at a time

- Fixed bug with extra Edit Search Criteria icon showing in apps list

- Fixed size and look of loading images

- Added ability to turn off ads by buying an unlocker app from the Android market

- Some minor bug fixes

I'd also like to get some thoughts on how I should charge for the app. My initial idea is that the app would be free, with an ad at the bottom. A button next to the ad would let you pay to unlock it. Unlocking it would turn off ads and maybe give you one more feature. For example, I want to add a way to share favorite movie lists with friends, but I'll need server space to do that. But the free one would have all other functionality and get upgraded as well.

So, some questions

- Does the approach seem reasonable?

- How much should I charge for the unlocker?

- I know I could do in-app purchases through the Android market, but that wouldn't be compatible with the Amazon AppStore, which I also want to be in. So I think downloading a separate unlocker works in all app store cases. What do you think?

Thanks,

-Gregg
[Xoom Themes and Apps] garyh2:
Scrolling is better, but as you stated, still not perfect :)

I do have one more critique for the UI. The white gradients you have on the left scroll list seem to be to high of a contrast for the background (doesn't seem to fit in). Would using something closer to the blues you are using work (or any other, more subtle, color)? Just a thought...

Regarding charging for the app, I have no issues with your current plan as outlined. If I were developing this app, especially if it's just a fun (or otherwise) side project, I would probably ask $1.99 if not lower. A separate unlocker seems to be pretty common with a few of the apps I use (Titanium, ROM Mgr, etc.) and wouldn't be a problem for me at all.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:
Great point about the left scroll bar. I'll see if I can get one that fits better into the color scheme. And that's about the range I was thinking for the app. Maybe $1.49 to $1.99.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] garyh2:
You have a PM!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] greno1:

I think I'm strictly HTC and LG now. And yes I know this is not a&d butt its cool too see a company like LG do this.

Tmo being open to side loading. This has potential to be a great device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] demo23019:
lg will definitely make a name for themselves by doing this

but also remember this is 2.2 source not 2.3 i believe.

2.3 update should be very soon hopefully they dont make u wait forever for that source

It almost seems this2.2 was a place holder. I'm thinking 2.3 very soon.

I am coming over from the sd version of android on my HD2. I had to download all sorts of stuff to get it working correctly. I already found Set CPU does not work correctly. Has anyone tried SD Card Increase or Juice Defender. Are these things needed?

I read the speed up apps thread but was wondering about these apps in particular.

Is there a way to regulate the CPU to save battery?

Edit:The latest version of SetCPU seems to work fine. I think I had an old version.

I am also using Antek App Manager to freeze battery hogs like wifi calling.

Where's my Droid Power is another helpful app to isolate what is killing the battery.

Setcpu wont work until kernel allows it.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Prod1702:
SetCPU works at the driver lvl. The Nvidia tegra 2 option is there to pick when you 1st load the app. You can set profiles as well. you just can not control the scaling yet. You can control how the cpu runs
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cbsummers:
Running SetCPU and it works fine for setting profiles and helping to give ya a bit better battery life.

I'm also using juice defender and power manager. With them and my profiles set up similar to what I had on my Nexus One I am getting really good battery life.

I got over 24hrs (closer to 36 actually) on my last charge, but my usage wasnt too heavy, but close to average for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lobsterhead:
I've got a profile set-up for "screen off" through SetCPU along with using Juice Defender running all the time. I also used Bloat Freeze to stop the random stuff from even starting to cause drain.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slickerxcuh:
I was curious about what kind of profiles/set up you had for these 3 applications: Setcpu + juice defender + power manager. Perhaps you can prepare a guide for us. It would be greatly appreciated =)

My device gets me 10 hours, I am very interested on how you are getting 24+ hours.
