I went ahead and took the facebook 1.5.2 app from my AppMoster Pro back up dated 04/16/2011 and thought i would share it with you folks that are having issues.

Working great for me so far, no force closes after replacing 1.5.3 with it!

Simply:

Download .apk

Plug your phone into your PC

Turn on USB mode

Copy the .apk file anywhere

Open whatever File manager app you use

Find it, install.

Just as usual, i'm not responsible for whatever YOU do wrong and ALWAYS keep a back up handy!

Enjoy!

Flow uses the official FB app for some functions (messages I think among others) - if you don't have FB installed, it does fallback to mobile site.
[Xoom General] Codespeare:
For those of you following along with the thread in the development forum, I'm not allowed to post in there yet but I've come across something of interest.

I took the resources.arsc file out of the framework-res-uastring.apk posted there and put it in the framework-res.apk that I pulled from my WiFi Xoom, and wouldn't you know, it worked!

I'm testing for stability now, but I can say that it's working for me so far. I've attached my modified framework-res.apk in case anyone wants to test along with me without going through the trouble of mashing files.
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
Nice, I was wondering if that would work. Just a word of caution though, since this resources.arsc comes from the US 3g Xoom it only has US-English and Spanish support.
[Xoom General] DroidHam:
Can someone test this and verify it works?
[Xoom General] B Dizzle:
Works. Don't forget to reboot after applyng. I will post back if I notice any side effects but so far no problems.
[Xoom General] DroidHam:
Does it have any other benefits other than the user agent?
[Xoom General] Codespeare:
I only incorporated the uastring change into my mashup.
[Xoom General] DroidHam:
Ok thanks!
[Xoom General] 3devious:
Is this for the wifi version, would it work on 3g? And do I need root?
[Xoom General] acsaint:
I tried it and caused multiple FC's on me as soon as it rebooted.

I however did the samething you did and pulled my framework-res.apk, added the resources.asrc file to it and then pushed it and all was good. Thanks for the idea!
[Xoom General] qubz:
Thanks for that Codespeare. I have posted a version for the Canadian WIFI Xoom ONLY under the Dev section OT.

[Xoom General] blulite:
I did it too, worked. EXCELLENT!
[Xoom General] Smokexz:
Will try now, thank you so much, I love you really I do.

EDIT: works... but at what cost? I have noticed the keyboard has been acting up, sort of how like the Gingerbread keyboard screws up from time to time, I don't think it's it me, but sometimes when I type something like backck it does that! Back back back backck, I have never noticed this before hand.... I am typing this out on my Xoom right now just to let you know. I hope this wasn't the fix. Still the keyboard works okay but that annoying bug that Gingerbread gets is present... pretty weird. Hope for a fix if this is really the UA string fix. Thanks anyways, it works great!

[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
What are those files for? What benefits will this give me?
[Xoom General] Smokexz:
You can now load up a website in full desktop mode by default. If you don't have this all websites will load into their mobile versions, because it detects it is Android and makes it suitable for the screen. Since Android works on tablet PCs now, this should be an interchangable option, however I don't think Google thought of this when they were making the browser.

I knew something was funny with all all these wifi only fwres popping up everywhere. I couldn't get past the bootloops either. Yet :p
[Xoom General] 3devious:
Does this work on the stock 3g version?
[Xoom General] Smokexz:
Because it changes back by default on the Android web browser. Also this is for the wifi only Xoom, there is another version specifically for the 3g Xoom.

[Xoom General] Codespeare:
There's a thread in the dev forum specifically for the 3G. I tried what I did as sort of a last resort for the wifi version.
[Xoom General] jlewis11:
Do I just need to install the APK that is attached or is there more to it?
[Xoom General] Codespeare:
The APK is all you need. I rebooted into recovery to push it to avoid any problems.
[Xoom General] ninjalex76:
Do nooooot do this with root explorer

There was another guy who posted a modified framework-res apk that also changed the UA string but added things like the CRT screen-off animation as well as support for SMS.

Anyway, the way I tried to replace my existing framework-res was by placing the new one in system/app (or wherever it was) and then deleting the old one with root explorer. THIS IS WRONG, DO NOT DO THIS.

My Xoom totally freaked out (force closed things I didn't know existed, came up with dialogs in different languages, etc) and bootlooped like cah-razy. On the bright side, I learned how to manually boot into recovery! lol Restored my nandroid and everything was great. Yay CWM.

Maybe I was being ridiculously stupid, but it was just my first (bad) instinct about how to go about replacing that apk. Could anyone post the commands to be used from adb to push the apk? That would've been really helpful to me at the time.

Hope this helps someone else!
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
Well I posted that framework-res.apk (3g only). Sorry it didn't work out for you. The adb command is:

adb remount

adb push filename /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb reboot
[Captivate General] stoobie-doo:
I am having a variety of issues with my Cap - all typically resolvable by a reboot, but a pain in the rear all the same, since some times the reboot leads to a different problem.

First off - I have a 1012 build, running stock AT&T Froyo. I installed it via Odin since Kies Mini never would download the update. I am rooted, only change to stock was to freeze the tethering manager since I could not tether reliably (AT&T confirmed the account is provisioned correctly for provisioning).

I am seeing a grab bag of intermittent issues - not sure if this is due to bugs, a bad flash, or something else altogether.

Issue 1 - On about one out of three boots, the phone doesn't recognize that it has a SIM installed (no phone # reported); toggling airplane mode does not fix this.

Issue 2 - On about one in four boots; the phone does not recognize apps moved via native Froyo functionality to the SD card. The SD card itself is recognized, but apps with shortcuts on a home screen (using LauncherPro) can't launch, and the apps themselves on the SD card do not show up (this is after 10-15 minutes, so it's not just waiting for Media rescanning to end). Has required reboot, sometimes several, to fix.

Issue 3 - Every once in awhile, can't get an IP address from a previously known and connected-to wifi hotspot. Connecting with Allshare running usually fixes.

Issue 4 - Some times updates from Market never finish. Once that happens, any further updates or new installs in Market will not start; installs from Amazon App Store won't complete. Reboot fixes.

I've seen reports on issues 2, 3, and 4 on various sites - but no definitive fixes. Issue 1 I have not seen elsewhere.

Anyone have any suggestions here on fixes to any of these annoyances?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anderl78:
As written on alpharev site, you should use a stock rooted Rom to apply s-off. During the s-off process your /data partition is used and should be save accessable. Try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=773997

1. make a Nandroid of your installed Rom.

2. Then flash the stock rooted one.

3. Reboot

4. Apply s-off

5. Revert your Nandroid

Done!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SphericalPuma:
So I lent my brother my nexus s that had cm7 on it. He got into the clockworkmod, went to mounts/storage, and proceeded to format everything (bootloader, boot data, etc. everything in there) he said he thought that would fix the force closes, I figured no biggie, but now I can't even get the phone into download mode and I have no idea what to do, the phone will simply not turn on
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
wow.... dont even know why he would do that.

rule 1: dont lend people your phone.

and i dont know why you would try and get into download mode, Odin isn't the first thing you want to go to.

1. turn the phone off (if it isnt already)

2. hold volume up + power

... what happens? does bootloader mode pop up?

- plug your phone in your computer's USB

- does the sound for USB plugged in occur?

- does computer detect it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SphericalPuma:
Can't access fastboot.

Phone sometimes recognizes it and says this device is not recognized and it couldn't install the usb driver, sometimes when i plug it in it does nothing.

Didn't want to lend it to him, had no choice. I told him he should have just fixed the permissions on the phone, but then again he's not exactly android literate.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
thats just dumb on his part.. i dont know why he would try and mess with your device. if it has problems, just ask you first.

its probably bricked if you cant access download or bootloader... definitely bricked if the computer is unable to detect it

your only way out of it is to get a replacement

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0x6d6b:

[General Questions and Answers] scottfish:
I got caught in the tablet frenzy this year and after a couple of brief love affairs w/ a G Tablet and a Nook Color, I gave in to the reality distortion field and snapped up an iPad 2. I am very happy with it. But… my wife has really taken to Bejeweled (I know, welcome to the year 2000) and I am finding myself twiddling my thumbs a lot lately as she struggles on her quest to beat my high scores  .

So I figured that now is a good time to snap up a second device. And I seek advice. Here are my pre-requisites:

-	Plays Bejeweled (to satisfy my wife)

-	Is cheap(ish)

-	Is hackable (to satisfy me)

I contemplated just getting a Xoom, but I do not know how I can sell $1200 in tablets to her w/o giving the subliminal OK for another outrageous purse purchase.

Any thoughts are appreciated. I don’t expect the world out of this device, I just don’t want to get stuck in a totally crippled and locked down tablet though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wondercoolguy:
I've been reading alot and post here and there and I wanted to make an official thread to see what people thought of my theory.

1. I did the drain, reset, full turn on, turn off let charge for two more hours.

2. Rooted and used root explorer to pull all bloatware out of the phone.

3. Once I took it off the charger wall I fired it into my pocket and went about my day not touching it at all two and half hours later I pulled phone out of my pocket to see that it was still at 100% battery life. Woo hoo it worked. I sent a couple of text messages and gtalks fire the phone back in my pocket for 20 or so mins battery was down to 92% 20 mins later 85% percent. This has happened three times now so...

4. My conclusion theory is that something in the software isn't controlling the processor and/or the cores. What do you all think about that? To me it is the only choice because I have no apps installed and the phone stayed at 100% until I used it and then the phone bled the battery dry. What say you all?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Well not to argue with the Multi-Cores because Froyo doesn't support multi-cores on a OS level. I think programs can access it only if they are written to do so.

But what you speak of is battery.

I get great battery as do most people. I've been at work all day (8-5) with WiFi, WiFi Calling turned on. I've played about 30 minutes of 3D gaming. Also played WordFeud several times, and made several changes to the phone... and surfed the internet. I have my corporate email set to PUSH and facebook/twitter widgets updating every 15 minutes... as well as the LG Weather Widget that updates every 3 hours.

Pretty heavy use and I'm 70%

My Nexus One would be giving me 20% battery warnings (or off) by now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bluemoon737:
And the real answer is that neither of your battery stats are correct. It's been posted here by the devs that the battery monitor in the firmware is broken...VERY broken.

Until we get new software to fix all the bugs (including the battery monitor) then it will be almost impossible to tell what true battery life is for this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Actually Android runs on linux which supports multiple cores/processors and also android things in separate processes so it does taking advantage of multiple cores.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
+1

You can see this in a ps.

The user interface may not be as fully optimized for multiple cores, but it does use them as well.

Killswitch for tablets and phones

Fahrbot Mobile presents Killswitch, a utility made specifically for devices with cases.

What does Killswitch do?

The app uses a combination of sensors to control the sleep state and screen lock of any device.

At the moment, it uses the proximity sensor, light sensor and accelerometer.

Killswitch has the added advantage of removing your lockscreen via two different methods if you so wish. If you have a case, it really isnt necessary and can be annoying.

Why use Killswitch?

Killswitch will save you battery - putting your device to sleep is as intuitive as shutting your case or turning your phone face down.

And, of course, Killswitch will show all your ipad and iphone loving mates why android is just that much more awesome :)

After upgrading to a newer version, please go into the settings dialog and enable Killswitch again. This is not optimal, but it saves battery and cpu time by removing the necessity for a constantly running service!

In order to uninstall the app, untick "Admin privileges" in Killswitch or via the Accessibility page of your device's settings.

when you say "All this will use no more power than any Android device does on default settings, as all of the pertinent sensors are already on all the time." , I'm kinda skeptical.

You shouldnt be - just use spare parts or whatever and you will find that Killswitch has used almost zero resources.

I made this app for myself originally and i have it on 3 devices. None of them are having battery problems.
[Android Apps and Games] lukesky:
don't get me wrong, i'm not saying that Killswitch uses a lot of battery, i'm just saying your statement "All this will use no more power than any Android device does on default settings, as all of the pertinent sensors are already on all the time." is not really true because I know that at least 1 sensor, which is the proximity sensor, is not on all the time, even on default settings.
