What's the downside to using the rom manager approach? From what I can tell everything will work but you can only get to it from software and not hardware buttons so if you're stuck in a bootloop for example you're hosed?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brian6685:
That is what I am trying to figure out also

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mapin0518:
Yep I believe that's exactly the downside. It's not a "real" recovery flash if you go thru rom manager, so if you're stuck in a bootloop you are indeed hosed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] carlsbad0331:
So is it really possible to have both versions of CWM installed and working? I installed via this threads method, and then had the bright idea to use the Rom Manager install thinking it would simply give me the newer version.

BUT, if I go to CWM via Rom Manager, its the new version and doing it via the buttons is the older version.

I guess this is a good thing right? So I can get to CWM via software OR hardware...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Chronos2187:
Yes it is possible that's what i'm doing. If you follow the link earlier in this thread you can flash the same version through nvflash.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mapin0518:
Yep, and as stated above you can nvflash the more recent version of CWM so you have the same version on both ends.

Suggestion to OP: Just thinking maybe you explain all of this better in the first post so that people can understand it without reading through the long thread, and also can you post links to the Windows files and instructions as well, so we have a nicely organized "howto flash recovery" original post detailing everything? (Maybe that's to come once "testing" is over, just a thought).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
So technically though, if T-Mo/LG release an update since the proper recovery is still intact, you should be able to update normally right?

hrm, i used nvflash to flash the clockworkmod recovery, and it was successful. So i unplugged and put the battery back in. When i turn the phone on now holding the volume down button, it just goes to software update screen, not recovery? It works when i go from rom manager though.

Hi all,

I am thinking of a script command that can enable/disable WIFI.

What I want to achieve is when I swipe up in my Go Launcher's main screen, it will simply toggle WIFI.

I've searched through the Internet and I can only get this command.

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.wifi.WifiSettings

this will only call up the page within "Wireless and Network". Not exactly what I expect. :(

Anyone know is such a command for toggling WIFI exists?

It should be a piece of cake for all developers but for me...... it's like a mountain......
[Nexus S Accessories] Aras87:
Hi folks,

I just got a new battery for my nexus s from the prunedanish at ebay but it turned out to be 1440mah. My original battery is 1500mah. However other than that they look exactly the same. Will I give away battery life by using 1440mah ?

Thanks
[Nexus S Accessories] jerrycycle:
I have the same battery. I don't notice a difference. Both give me a 24 daily use cycle once I got them conditioned.
[Nexus S Accessories] tumblerer:
I'd feel that the difference would be marginal.

Once you factor in some slight battery degradation and manufacturer tolerances, they would be virtually the same.

streaming divx from http sites without alternate programs works on g2x out of box. i had never got this to work before but after i tried rockplayer on my droid again and if i chose download from the site instead of watch it did work on the droid too, wish i had tried that earlier , but its working on g2x without any additional programs.

Hope this helps out someone. if the site gives a watch or download choose the download the watch will still give you the blue lego but if you choose download it will start playing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] karnovaran:
The divx logo is on the back of the box :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
yes i know this

yes i know this. and i expected it to play div files playing a file and streaming a file are 2 differnt things. if you already knew this great . how about not giving a smart ass answer and moving on. and let people that didnt know this find out.

of course all developers come here but i only visted to find little things and see waht was new. and work with a couple developers here. i never spent this amount of time as i have the last week reading regarding the G2x and im extrememly disapointed at what is allowed to go on here. i have never seen such childish me me behavior on any other forum. i dont think i have seen 1 thread without someone trolling it, telling someone they are stupid for having an opinion, or just rude comments and behaviors.

glad you knew this from the back of the box im happy for you but i bet there are many that didnt realize it would stream without an addon program. hopefully someday i will be as smart as you.

anyways back to the actual topic . if anyone else tried this i am seeing a pause about every 8 seconds watching the divx stream . im on my wifi but the router may be hosed it does say buffer occasionally when these freezees occur but not always. wonder if anyone else is getting the same or if they have a good steady stream. will try it on 4g tommorow when im at work in a 4g area.

stagevu was the site i was using just choose download to any video rather than watch. im pretty sure the pauses were just buffering issues just trying to make sure. also this phone is very quite compared to the droid not sure its loud enough for me will see how it goes over the next week.

turn off your tablet. boot into recovery by holding the power and volume up button at the same time. once recovery boots up use the volume up/down keys to scroll to wipe data/factory reset. when that is highlighted hit the home button and let it do its thing. when its done scroll up to reboot, and you should be good.

i heard it will start shipping between may 4th to the 6th. Am waiting to get my hands on one as well. Am not happy with the current price point. Especially the amazon price. I have seen others online with way less. Maybe the price will balance out once it is release. But it's a good investment, considering the device it is for. That's less then a best buy insurance for a year. So i won't mine buying one at that price if it stays that way.
[Xoom Accessories] vzontini:
The tech specs show the case as .84" but I think that is without the stand. Anyone hear how thick the combination of case and stand will be?

Looks like this case is for folks with hard wear situations only. No sure how appropriate it will be for normal use. Thoughts?
[Xoom Accessories] supremecream06:
i do believe it's on the thick side. as most of the outterbox cases are. they sometime makes lighter version. but i mean for what i spend on this baby, i'll want to get the best jacket for her. it will keep her safe from everything, weather to falls. even the dog. lol

sk806 for his power control widgets and framework (I just themed what he did)

adrynalyne for Das BAMF!

MicroMod777 and Megarek for their notification icons

droidpirate.com (couldn't find the author of the post) for the cyan 4GLTE icons. Also big thanks to droidpirate for the other battery icons!

bgill55 for the location icon removal mod

whoever made the cyan themed Rosie.

TEAMANDIRC for making it all possible.

FLASH THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BREAKING YOUR PHONE. Make a backup first, and then you won't have to worry about that.

This theme works with the new Das BAMF 1.5. It should work on any deodexed Sense rom. I've attached a cyan-themed Rose skin. I've sent a couple pms to skins guys and can't seem to find where it came from. If you made it or know who did let me know, so I can either give credit or just link to the thread.

Steps to install:

1. Boot into recovery

2. Do a nandroid backup

3. Install .zip from wherever it is on your sd card

4. Wipe cache

5. Wipe dalvik cache

6. Boot up and enjoy!

The first boot takes a while, it always does when you're messing with the framework. Wait it out! If it hangs for a long time (like 5 or 10 minutes) then pull the battery, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache again.

This has only been tested on BAMF, but it should work with anything sk806's mod works with, as well. Please try it out on other roms and report back.

Check out some of my work at www.RootzWiki.com, and hit THANKS if you like it! @CuddlyNinja on twitter, RMHisCOOL on gtalk. Hit me up with any issues.

Download the theme here.

Coming soon:

- More battery options

- Some themed app icons (Amazon, Angry Birds, Calculator, Browser, Dropbox, Ebay, Facebook, Fruit Ninja, Gmail, Nook, Gtalk, Handcent, Messages, IMDB, Kindle, Movies by Flixster, Navigation, Pandora, Phone, Bunch of twitter apps, Rom Manager, SetCPU, Sky News, SNESoid, Stumble Upon, TFLN, Ti Backup, X-box, XDA and Youtube coming up first, because I have those)

- Better 4G toggle icon

This theme looks amazing. I'm new to installing themes onto my phone, so I have a few questions.

I installed the theme just fine I think, but the only thing that changed is the top bar that shows my battery life, time and signal strength. How do I come about making my phone look like the 3rd thumbnail in the original post? Does it have something to do with that Cyan.apk file?

EDIT:

I successfully installed the Cyan.apk file via Super Manager and selected the Cyan skin in the Personalize tab. Only thing now is that I really like the way the clock looks on the 3rd thumbnail as well as the bar that holds all the volume control. Could anyone tell me how to get my homescreen to look like the 3rd thumbnail? I'm also missing the wallpaper.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] RMHisCOOL:
The clock is a widget called SiMi Clock, with all of the colors changed to cyan. You make cyan by putting the red all the way down, and green, blue and alpha all the way up. The power control widget is called Extended Controls, which lets you pick whatever toggles you want and what color to have the "on". The bottom widget is AudioManager with a cyan skin. You can find the skin in the market by searching "AM Skin cyan" and it'll pop right up. I've attached the wallpaper to the OP. Is there anything else you you'd like to know about my setup?

If I use the back arrow to get out of that, the Home button takes me to the Home screen for that session. If I reboot, then I get the "how to complete this, Clock/Alarm Clock Plus" option again the first time.

So, it seems that it wants to launch a clock. How do I stop it from wanting to launch the clock then?

Quick reply - I've posted this elsewhere in other threads, but the problem is actually a misfiring dock indicator pin.
