All my e-mail in 1 place

I like to have all my e-mail in 1 tidy place, too. My G2x is rooted. Here's what I did:

1) Set up all my accounts, both Google and otherwise, in my e-mail client (MailDroid).

2) Shut off AutoSync on my google Gmail accounts.

3) Used Bloat Freezer to freeze the Gmail app.

I like Bloat Freezer but Titanium Backup can also freeze apps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tangyoulei:
Just to make sure I get your correct. You click in setting-->acct&sync-->that gmail acct (in gmail app not email app). Then you check off all the 4 sync items (contacts, emails, picasaweb, calendar). That's correct?

Do you still leave the auto-sync on in the parent page (setting-->acct&sync)? I am wondering if I check off that, it will stop the email accounts in the email app syncing and pushing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] clicktician:
I turned auto sync off completely. You can sync Cal and Contacts manually by just tapping "Sync Contacts" on demand.

After I froze Gmail, Sync Email disappeared from the list of sync-able things.

I don't like Auto Sync because of the battery drain.

Hello, Incredible forum.

I'm fairly new to the Android development scene, and have only recently flashed CM7 on my phone (still getting used to it).

In another thread, a user recommended chad's incredikernel to help boost performance (or maybe battery life), and since I'm fairly new to this, I was wondering if anyone could post a walkthrough of where and how to do this.

I've tried searching for something, but haven't gotten anywhere, especially since I'm so new to the subject.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
Flashing a new kernel is just like flashing roms. Well actually not if you use rom manager for installing roms.. Anyway, go to the incredikernel thread in the development section and download the kernel from the first post. Put the kernel on your SD card then boot into recovery (hold power, reboot>recovery). In that menu, select install zip from SD, then choose the zip file. In recovery you use the optical joystick to scroll and click it to select. Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xirftwx:
1. Download Incredikernel.

2. Mount SD to computer.

3. Copy Incredikernel to root of sdcard (/sdcard)

4. Power off your device, and then boot into hboot using voldown and power button at the same time.

5. Select recovery.

6. Go to clear cache. Scroll down to yes and select it using the trackball.

7. Then go back and go to advanced and then to clear dalvik cache.

8. Go back to main menu and choose install a zip from sdcard.

9. Choose the Incredikernel zip file and then press yes.

10. Let it install and then reboot when done!

If you have any problems post back here!

Yup, I've flashed almost every room and I'm sticking to this now that it's stable. I really think you'll love it, let me know if you need help.

Just a question.. I have SGS international editon flashed with gingerbread 2.3.3 XXJVK.. do I need to downgrade my firmware first to froyo before I can put CM7 to my phone..well the thread made me more confused hehehe
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] runedrune:
yeah you have to flash a froyo package that has the froyo bootloaders. try JPU or EZbase.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crazy25000:
Correct, you have to flash froyo ROM, then flash a stock voodoo + froyo kernel. From here follow the instructions from the OP who posted the CM7 ROM.

What do most of you guys use in your vehicles for audio player from EVO phone? Ive tested winamp, poweramp, & currently the music player from CM7 stock. BTW what music player is used in the latest CM7 mod, when I had destroyer v2 it wasnt used there? I really like how it sets up all your folders & you can go thru each one. Poweramp has an EQ which people rant n rave about but it seems like the EQ gives an exaggerated sound when used in a vehicle with speakers...Opinions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
i'm using miui music player. you need to manually sign the apk and everythign to get it to install, but it's worth it. i can shoot you a copy if you want. i love the lyrics support and automatic album cover downloads, the app is just plain awesome.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pivo187:
Do you have any pix or videos of it in action? Dont care for the album art really jus that I can go into seperate folders with music.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
here's the app itself. signed, so just install from adb or through a file browser.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
I haven't found a music app yet that can compete with an iPod's. Sadly, I hate everything Steve Jobs' name is attached to but their music app far surpasses ours. If I find/make one you can bet your ass I'll be posting it here lol.

For now, I use MIUI (what dkdude uses) when I have music on my phone and otherwise I just use my Zune HD.

PowerAmp

I use Power Amp. It is my favorite!:)

It's available on the market.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
If you like the CM music app, try "Music Mod". It's free in the market, and also the app CM chose for their roms.

EDIT: I'm currently using the MIUI music app as well because I'm on MIUI... plus it's really good. In the past I've used Player Pro, it's really nice. They've recently added an equalizer, which isn't a big deal to me, but is for some. Mixzing is another decent one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuke00:
I use the stock Sense music player. Works just fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
I use poweramp, it was actually the second app I paid for (first was metamorph). I just make sure to turn on the large lockscreen widget.

I have it piped in through the AUX port on my head unit. As far as the EQ and sound and all that, I just set up custom EQ settings (on the head unit itself) for my AUX input mode and everything sounds great.

I especially love how it starts playing automatically when I plug in the headphone jack, and stops playing automatically when I take it off.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alaman68:
the newest MIUI music is really great. Not sure if dkdude has a working versions of it though. Settings always causes a force close. i dont care much for the apple music. Took all my music off my ipad, which is a paperweight anyway
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pivo187:
Dont you guys who use poweramp find the EQ sound to be exaggerated? Everytime Ive used it in my car and put on the EQ the SQ doesnt sound natural it sounds exaggerated & not right...Also if I were to get mp3s with 320kb would it sound as good as using an original CD or thats just not possible?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xviiivx:
I'm a big fan of Cubed. I've used just about every free music player in the market, and IMO, nothing comes close.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm922:
ive used poweramp, cube, doubletwist, stock sense, stock gingerbread, but now i switched over to using MixZing, its my fav so far, its free, has an equilizer, automatically downloads album art and updates the tags, give u a folder search. its good stuff!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamantypants:
I totally feel you on PowerAmp. IMO it does exaggerage the range by the EQ; in most cases I just turned it off. I did dig the interface for a bit but it was hard to use one-handed for me. Also, it was a bit unintuitive.

I'm using the stock player in CM7/Gingerbread and I'm perfectly happy with it. Simplicity trumps most things for me. When I run Sense, I just use the Sense player.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
I don't bother with the EQ in PowerAmp, but I've always felt it was kinda annoying to mess with software EQs, especially on a touchscreen. I just adjust settings as needed on the head unit itself, and that works great.

As to your second question, that's something that's been debated in audiophile circles for a long time. With a car stereo, you might notice a slight improvement with FLAC/CD over mp3, but it will be only in the highest of the high frequencies and honestly you'd have to be actively paying attention. And that's assuming that your audio equipment is even of a high enough fidelity in the first place. Road noise while driving won't be doing you any favours either.

In short: don't worry about it, 320kbps mp3 is more than fine and will sound just like the CD for all intents and purposes.

I have three computers.

1) Server my company outgrew and am using at home as my desktop now.

OpenSuse 11.4 64-Bit KDE 4.6

2) Notebook - Dell M1330

Ubuntu 11.04 Beta (updated every day)

3) Notebook - Dell M1330 (not dual boot...a separate one)

Windows 7 64-Bit Professional

With either 1 or 2, when I download a ROM and connect my EVO to the computer, transfer the ROM and try to flash, I ALWAYS get a bad file or other error, and it will not flash.

With 3-Windows 7, any single ROM file I download and copy to my EVO it ALWAYS works...no errors, everything is fine.

I'm not an expert in Linux, but also know my way around enough to fix whatever problem for the most part.

What the hell can it be that with different Linux installs on different computers, EVERY time I copy and paste a file to my phone, the file never works...most of the time it is even a different sized file (i.e. original is 204 MB's, and when I transfer it to the phone it will be ~4MB's.

I have also tried running the file manager as root to see if it made a difference, but to no avail...and this with KDE, Gnome 2.3 and Unity.

Any insight into this will be greatly appreciated...the only reason I have Windows 7 running is specifically for this reason...I've finally gotten to the point where I have no need for Windows 7 whatsoever and this pisses me off.

sorry if it has been mentioned, I've googled and search everywhere and not found anyone mentioning this.

Thanks

So i downgraded my G1 to RC29. The wifi used to work on this so i can bypass the screen easily. But this time, when i start up wifi it says "Unable to start/stop WiFi". So i can't activate using wifi method. I can't activate using 3g because i have no data plan. Any other ways?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Did you try ADB to activate your wifi?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy073096:
yes i did, but the phone said "Unable to start/stop WiFi"
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
The best way to activated is to borrow a friend SIM card that has the data plan, if you are unable to start/stop wifi.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy073096:
What if i can't find anyone that have a data plan? And can i root the phone without getting pass the activation screen? If i can root it and install all those things, i won't need to get pass the activation screen, it would disappear on it's own
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
To my knowledge you will at least required to get through the activation screen once.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy073096:
Is there anyway to fix the "Unable to start/stop WiFi"?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Were you able to get a connection correctly with ADB?

by ADB you mean the "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n

com.android.settings/.Settings" thing? Yes i did, and it pops up the Wireless control and i tried to unable wifi. It says "Unable to start/stop WiFi"
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy073096:
I downgraded straight from Cyanogen Mod 7, Gingerbread 2.3. The problem happened in that version too, but the wifi displayed "error" instead. I still have a nandroid backup, can i somehow restore the phone? It's basically a stock G1 RC29 now, nothing on it.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roy073096:
Yep, i did that. and Lol, I did reflash, back to 2.2, 2.1, and wifi still didn't work. So i thought to myself, "If i do this all over again it'll work!" Then, lol.. Owned by my super noobness. "Unable to start/stop WiFi". But yeah, i found a solution. I sold the phone for $50. :D

[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
Has anyone else had "wake lag" on their Atrixes?

What I mean is where the device is sleeping, screen off, in your pocket for a while, etc. Press the power button, count to 3 or 5 or so, then the screen comes on.

It doesn't seem to happen all the time, but when it does it's really annoying.
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
i jsut noticed that on mine too. its getting really annyoing.
[Atrix 4G General] chriscerv90:
I just noticed this after reading this post... haha now its annoying me! lol :mad: mine takes about 2.5 seconds once in a while. Not a deal breaker though
[Atrix 4G General] xorpion:
I do see it occassionally.
[Atrix 4G General] drumercalzone09:
Some reports attribute this issue to the fingerprint scanner. Do you have this enabled?
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
I had that until I installed "Launcher Pro" and now I don't have that problem anymore...
[Atrix 4G General] saar73:
i got this annoying lag in incoming calls. the phone ringing but the screen still black :mad:
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
Maybe it has to do something with the update we got. I don't remember it having wake up lag when I had first gotten it.

Sent from my Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
I don't either, but I don't remember it when I first updated to 1.57 either. Maybe it has something to do with uptime? I haven't rebooted in 5-6 days. Coming from Windows Mobile, I am happy to have a phone that doesn't get "stuck" and need to be rebooted every day but....
[Atrix 4G General] madquack:
I don't know what lag you guys are talking about.. ? I get zero lag whatsoever.
[Atrix 4G General] mchimney:
Well i'm noticing it now. The longer the phone is in standby, the longer the sleep time is (up to about 5 seconds)
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
Yes, that is exactly what I am talking about.

My phone has been in my pocket for almost 2 hours. I pulled it out, pressed the power button, and it took ~2 seconds to get to the lockscreen.

pushed the button again to turn the screen off, pushed it again to turn it back on, it took ~1 second.

I swear when I got home yesterday from work and turned it on it took like 5 seconds.

On a related note, it used to seem take longer to come out of standby when I was using SetCPU and forced it to 200 MHz when the screen was off. I don't use SetCPU anymore, but maybe it's related to CPU scaling. If the phone is in "deep sleep" and the CPU clocks down to its lowest frequency maybe it takes longer to wake up.
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
yeah i noticed it when i needed to reply to a text that a pressed it didnt come up so i pressed it again nothing and gain then it did. i thought it was my power button. but after a reboot it was doing the same so i figured it was the update we got.
[Atrix 4G General] PuerkitoBio:
I have this lag, new thing, happened today for the first time. Nothing to do with the update, since I'm on Bell's Atrix (no update yet). I even took off the battery once, as it was not waking up after a good 20 secs...

Sent from my Atrix
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
It has gotten worse for me as the day has gone on.

I think this phone's going back before my 30 days are up. This is just another little thing in a long list of little things that are bugging me. I want to like the phone, I really do, but it's just not doing it for me I guess.
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
i installed the update for AT&T users and i got to say that there is no wake up lag for me anymore.

just my 2 cents
[Atrix 4G General] xateeq:
Nop no lag
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
never mind the lag is still here.
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
I completely drained my phone so it shut itself off. When I restarted it after it had charged for a while it seemed a lot snappier. Maybe the phone just isn't made to handle 96 hours of uptime. :confused:

Kind of like older Windows PC's lol.
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
i just factory reseted my phone. lag still there. or maybe becuase its downloading apps. ill see how it goes.
