[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
I'm not rooted, I simply don't do it because I'm worried about voiding my warranty, and I'm really not that tech-savvy with the android, I'm really new to it, and find it difficult at times haha. Unless it's easy to unroot it..... then I'd root it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xl DIGITAL lx:
Its really easy to unroot, one button and that's it. Same program to root it. Just root it then unroot it after you're done backing up your apps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smitty24:
what apps are 'extremely' useful? Id wipe, then download them one at a time. One of them is likely causing the fast drain.

If that doesnt help, def. take it back to the store for a swap.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xl DIGITAL lx:
That's what I'm going to try after the factory reset. I have like 150 apps lol. Mostly games.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
Alrighty, well i really dont have that many apps haha, I have like SMS pro, and I added some widgets and launchers that's all, those are probably easy to download in all honesty.

Is it really that easy to unroot and root? Can you tell me what app I can use to do that? or how to do that?

I'm trusting that it really works because I'd hate to void my warranty
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xl DIGITAL lx:
Check the development section. It was really easy for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xspeed9190:
did a full charge + master reset. Upluged the phone had a 5 minute phone call battery is at 87% and has been unplugged for 45 minutes
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Profondo_Rosso:
I'm on my third run through=charged fully, run down to 1%, charged fully, run down to 1%, charged fully.

Right now, I'm at 75% after 4 hours, which is much better than before. Yesterday I was at about 10% per hour with only minimal use.

Give it time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
Went to t-mobile, there was a phone specialist from LG there, and he put Advanced Taskiller froyo for me, and now i ran down the battery and am fully charging it again. Hopefully it works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richicool:
Hi, I just was wondering if the galaxy sII could play .m4a (alac lossless) files or if there is any app that enables it. Thank you
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
I think .m4a support is built in android

See: http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virtue94:
Mhm, he's right. No matter what, you should be able to play your .m4a on any Android phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richicool:
I don't know, but I saw the audio specification at the samsung website and it isn't alac support

MP3, OGG, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, AMR-NB

AMR-WB, WMA, WAV, MID, AC3, IMY, FLAC, XMF
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virtue94:
Well ALAC uses an mp4 container to store its audio data and according to this, http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html Android supports .m4a.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richicool:
ok,in that table m4a container is supported but alac codec isn't

alac isn't the same codec as AAC
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
True. Also it was stupid of me thinking android would support a format of apple. (I bet they would get sued by apple for patent infringement:p)

Anyway while googling I found that there is an app playing ALAC files. It's called andLess. I don't know if it's in the android market but you can download in the internet like appbrain.com
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richicool:
thank you. that solves my problem because part of my music library is in m4a
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] forpar:
I have installed the new kindle app but it is not doing much different. Has anyone gotten the new app to work as a tablet. I bought a magazine just to see if it would show the full issue and it does not. Looks just like the old one except for the grid view. Also am not getting the new store to show up.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tcrews:
You aren't running the app on a 3.0 (Honeycomb) based version of the OS which the new Kindle app features were written for.

At most you are running 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) or at least, 2.2.1 (Froyo).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] EddyHopper:
I seem to have had the same hopes as you, forpar. It would have been nice to have some selectable tablet features. As is I am happy with the local dictionary.

there are some bugs reported like gps takes a way long time... bt if u are thinking to flash via odin i.e. firmware ddjp2 then plz don't it will soft brick your phone.

Hi,

Anyway to have Arabic support in OC 1.6.1? Arabic letters appear but are not connected.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ameer1367:
same problem with farsi. also arabic fonts. it does show the letters but its splitted.

like in english you have like:

hello this is a text to show how samsung f..ed up arabic fonts.

and galaxy would show them like:

h e l l o t h i s i s a t e x t t o s h o w h o w s a m s u n g f . . e d u p a r a b i c f o n t s .

so we are not able to read arabic.

btw. you do have the persian browser(not fullscreen) which do shows websites in correct way of showing arabic. but its only for web apps
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ameer1367:

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblue206:
I am having a problem playing avi files from my Gtablet running TNT Lite 4.4. I have about 8 movies saved to the card and they were all ripped using bitripper. They are all the same type of file but 2 of them will play and the other 6 won't. I keep getting a "Sorry this can't be played message". I have tried multiple video players includign Rockplayer,Real Player, VPlayer and others. Does anyone have any ideas. I was thinking that maybe it was the file size. THe 2 vids that play are 832mb and 670 mb and all the others are between 1-1.5 gigs. Has anyone else had these problems. Also when I loaded a couple of these movies to the internal memory they played fine.

I just finished rooting my DHD.. Anything more to add up to it? Like applications unavailable to unrooted phones.

I followed this tut and stopped after gaining root. I chickened out b/c of the warnings.

1) Download Paul's Visionary+ tool

1.1) Click here to download http://android.modaco.com/content/ht...ne-click-root/ or download it from here http://xdaforums.com/atta...3&d=1290501865

1.2) Install Visionary+ on Your DHD

1.4) Click "Temproot Now!" - Wait until it's finished

1.5) Click Attempt Permroot Now!

1.6) DHD automatically reboot's

To test that everything went fine download from market application "terminal emulator"

run it, type su

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plskillme:
What exactly does this tool do? I've already downgrade my DHD to 1.32.405.3 rom and as I have mentioned before that I just gained root on my phone on my first post.

Do I need to flash the hboot?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Well the next step (if you are willing) would probably be S-OFF and Clockworkmod Recovery, so you can flash custom ROMs.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banjiki:
There's no need to worry.. Most of the tools recommended here in XDA are usually noobproof. If something goes wrong, it will only do nothing.

But seriously the only way you can get the confident to proceed is by reading the thread until you know everything that can go wrong. That's how I did it anyway :)

Good luck!

Sorry for the late reply but brah can you put up more list of tutorials after rooting to installing roms by sequence? Verbatim if possible b/c I'm really new into these kind of things which are basically way over my understanding ._. And my last phone was an iphone where things like using a theme/adding files were basically done over via terminal emulator and SSH.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] SiddheshSL:
Hi,

I'm facing a peculiar problem with regards to the updates that applications receive from the android market,it happens as follows:-

I receive the updates notification,

->i press the update all button or individually update, it starts downloading,

->shows download paused

-> starting download,

->download paused

->then download starts and completes

->then AGAIN it shows starting download,

->then it suddenly shows INSTALLING,

-> then gives a notification of UPDATE FAILED.

-> if i touch the update failed notification it shows could not download to USB Storage or SD Card

this happens whether i select update all or single update, however i can download apps to my device, and uninstall and reinstall the apps which are not getting updated. I would like to state that my SD card is in normal condition as movies and movies play off it smoothly. I also tried restarting, Unmounting and remounting the card, but the problem is still there.If anybody has faced this problem and found a solution for it, please let me know. Thank you in advance
[Optimus One, P500, V General] billyboy1995:
I too have this problem. I have found that on some apps you can uninstall first then move back to SD. If anyone has a better solution I would love to know
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hon kin:
i dont have such problem, but my market always FC when i tap on the 'just in' apps tap. wondering what has happen with the market apps... =/
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hell1134:
Try updating via LG software while connected to your computer through usb cable.

Perhaps, it's the common sd card mounting error, wherein, sometimes the sd card automatically un-mounts and remounts, causing phones to restart, fc for apps, etc.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] SiddheshSL:
Firstly, Thanks to all of you for replying to this post:). Although i am still facing this problem:(, i have found a temporary solution to this, even though its not very elegant, its quite useful if you have to update system centric apps like android assistant, go sms pro, titanium backup etc.

->Move the applications which aren't updating to the internal memory,

->Go to the my apps section in android market

-> Update!!!:D:D:D

-> move the app back to the SD memory

Yes i know not as convenient as tapping "Update All", but till a proper solution comes out, this will have to do. Also hell1134 if LG android software is working for you, then you're ONE LUUUUUUUUUCKYYY Guy. Cos in my experience all it ever does is freeze up and suck osama balls:mad::mad::mad:. Very badly made software, Uninstalled it the MINUTE i discovered myphoneexplorer.

Anyone having problems with calkulins? notification pops up half way and cripples everything. I can open the app drawer but thats about it. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Great work GoJimi. I've been wanting something like this for a while.

I ended up just removing the dock bar from my ADW EX and putting my 'dock' as just standard short-cuts along the bottom. (saw this idea on another thread).

Downside is that my 'dock' is only on one screen, or I have to replicate it across all screens. This launcher solves that problem.

One request. on ADW EX I can set it to 10 x 10 columns. I think 8x8 is the most supported by this launcher? I have mine set to 10 Columns, 8 Rows.

Can this be added to VTL?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] gojimi:
I'll look into it for you..... knew it was only a matter of time before people started asking for EX features...:D ... just so everyone knows EX isn't open source so any of those features that he has there I would have to figure it out from scratch (not that I am incapable, mind you). Just remember that when asking for EX features that it will be more work for me than just copying over some code so it will take time. Also keep in mind I am trying to keep this as lightweight and functional as possible so some feature requests may be put low on the list. This request is not a major undertaking and may actually get added. All of course "after" I finish up VT.GE B1.

Really nice launcher that works seamlessly with VEGAn. Ones thing though...I an thinking my battery is draining faster now. Anybody else notice this?
[Android Apps and Games] slsmag:
Not here.

Was out and about yesterday for nearly six hours with my Gtab, wireless on & tethered to my Droid for GPS... got home and still had 95%+ battery charge.
[Android Apps and Games] nunjabusiness:
Hard to imagine.

I consider the battery life pretty damn good, but mine still goes from 98% to 21% in about 6-8 hours with Tune-in Radio, Weatherbug and news widgets running. But then, I also leave the display on the whole time too.

I don't think the launcher has any bearing on that. It has to be the apps that use wifi and the display more than anything else.
[Android Apps and Games] frankencat:
Yeah probably right. Just checking.
[Android Apps and Games] enotar:
I have 2 problems that I cannot fix and I took the time to check it out:

1- in drawer i eliminate the background (space right and left) but it keeps coming back.

2-the slider suddendly move to the right 54 or 5 icons with empty on the left; this situation require to reset launcher.

Thats about it, the rest is perfect, of course missing resizing and scrollable widgets but that's ok.

this is definitely the best launcher for tablet

I have X5A-G
[Android Apps and Games] hitekredneck:
Weather Bug is a real battery killer for me on any device. I avoid it at all costs.

As for a launcher causing battery drain, I have tried most all of them and have seen no battery issues with any of them other than the so called 3d flavors.
[Android Apps and Games] Moguledyouth:
loving this launcher on a cm7 nook color, would like to see an option to set dock justify to either of the 3, right left center
[Android Apps and Games] pawces:
great launcher! coming from AdwlauncherEx this definitely feels snappy, particularly when changing orientation from landscape to portrait and back. Only one thing holding me back from switching to this permanently...the icons are not resize-able. I find the default icon size too big , even with my reduced LCD density of 195. Get that feature in and i'm sold! Icon size should be resizeable on the dock too, that way you can fit more into the screen if you want.
[Android Apps and Games] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I think you might have that backwards. Increasing the LCD Density actually makes everything bigger. Decrease the density (I know, its counter intuitive) and text, etc. gets a little smaller.

You can adjust the number of 'Rows' and 'Columns' on the home screen up to 10x10. (the bottom dock supports up to 10 icons, not sure about the sides, probably the same).

I'm not exactly sure what else you are looking for, but I think if you drop your density down to 140 or so, you might get what you were looking for?

One thing that I think would make this even better is on-screen soft buttons for Home and Back, sort of like honeycomb has it...
[Android Apps and Games] marshmallow713:
I think what you are looking for is more based on what ROM you have. I'm running the newest Vegan and it does have soft bottons for home and back and settings.

I just had to post here to let you know I LOVE this home screen. It has been the last peice to making this tab perfect for me :D
[Android Apps and Games] DroidxRage:

[Android Apps and Games] tj!2k7:
The tablet tweaks in CM7 provide this functionality (if you're open to running CM7)...
[Android Apps and Games] hamzer11:
The buttons are in the top status bar. Home is on the left and back and menu all the way on the right. It's one of my favorite things at night.

I'm not 100% if that's a function of the Vegan ROM or this launcher though?

[Android Apps and Games] xmellyx:
Installed and running on my 3g xoom.

My experience:

The launcher is really slick and I love the dockbars for the apps. I have some issues with Widgets. I can install some like beautiful Widgets, but I have an issue with some not being able to be resized. It seems hit or miss depending on the which widget I am trying to resize. Also I tried to put the 4x4 scrollable plume widget on my desktop and it crashed the launcher and removed all of the Widgets I had on the screen previously.

All in all I think that this is a great concept and a very good start. With some debugging and polish, this could be the king of the tablet launchers. Great work!

Here's a pic of my setup taken with my evo because screenshot er isn't working for me:
[Android Apps and Games] ghostfaceg35:
Am I missing where to set the number of homescreens? I don't need more than 3 but can't find where to trim it down. Also sometime in the future might a scrollable LauncherPro+'ish facebook widget be possible? Other than that this launcher is the best!
[Android Apps and Games] Surge1:
Is it possible to make the default orientation landscape? if I try to lock this in memory it still stays in portrait which kind of defeats the point of this IMO. otherwise great work =]
[Android Apps and Games] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
While at 'Home', hit menu then 'Edit'. From there you can swap screens, change which one is the 'home' and delete/add screens.

Just as a reminder, this is a modified version of ADW. The basic core functionality is still ADW. GoJimi is 'just' (as if it were that easy) moving the docks around (and adding a few) and tweaking other issues to better fit with the tablet format.
[Android Apps and Games] ghostfaceg35:
Thank you! I knew there was a way and I was just missing it. Honestly I have never even used ADW before, as I bought LauncherPro+. I am digging the themeing and what not.
