Can someone post an apk for gtalk with video chat. I currently have 2.3.4 but would like to use the video chat over 3g/4g and not just wifi...

I saw one in the android forum, but no one can confirm it works 100%.

Didn't think the day would be here but with ADW EX Launcher I am not looking back. Every once in a while i will load a new launcher to see what is out there and I have always gone back to LPP.... This time it is different.

ADW Ex features the following...

-faster

-less buggy - whenever loading a new app i would have to restart lpp to see it in app draw. LPP would also get stuck in a funny view when going from landscape to portrait.

-the ability to have my livewallpaper as the drawer background with options to change font color of icons.

-multiple draw options

- swipe gestures, especially to bring up hidden dock bar that holds 7 icons.

-super large icons for the main dock bar

-just runs better and I believe takes up less memory then LPP.

Found an app, which i think is a rip off of LPP, it is called Colorize widgets, and it basically has all the LPP widgets, for all other launchers. With this I have all but one function missing from LPP...

Only thing missing is scrolling main dock to add more icons, and swipe gestures on dock icons to open up other applications.

I had a separate scroll dock in LPP for important direct dial icons... Instead I loaded folder organizer and made a special label with those contacts. Then I just put the label icon in my main dock and set it to LIST view with ICON and TEXT. So now when I click on the icon i get a nice big list to click on to call my important contacts.

There are still a few bugs with ADW especially with the Streak, but they will probably be ironed out in the next few days because it effects other larger devices...

not sure what is taking Fredrico C to come out with better features or that new re-written Launcherpro.. but this is now my primary option.

Same thing happened with me after discovering ADW Ex!! Installed it, loved it and it was bye bye Launcher Pro Plus!! The only thing I really miss about LPP are the LP Widgets and the scrolling dock. Colorize is nice, but I still prefer the LP widgets over it.

I had tried the ADW free before, and I still went back to LPP. In fact, I have tried many of the free launchers out there, and LPP is the only one I found that I wanted to pay for. I still go back to it.

I haven't tried the pay version of ADW yet. How big are the differences between ADW free and pay?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] carhigh:
My favorite thing in LP is being able to hide things from the drawer, such as things i have on my home screens. I tried adw and didnt see anywhere to do the same.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] carhigh:
OK, so there is a way to hide apps in the drawer. Maybe this weekend I will go thru and set it all up and give it some fair time in trial.

So these launchers seem to be more for editable drawer, correct? Ive got go, pro launcher, and adw and to me they feel less snappy than zeam. Most of the themes also seem to be icon packs more than anything. None of the themes I tried really feel to be extensively customized to feel different than stock launcher theme. Any suggestions for custom themes?

Interesting. So just tell them your phone number is showing up as "unknown"?

I just had an online chat with a CS rep. He had me power off my phone a couble times and take the SIM card out while he sent OTA SIM updates. Both texts got sent confirming that the OTA was received, but number is still "Unknown".

CS rep said I'd have to go use another T-mobile phone to get the OTA then move the SIM back. Oh well. Maybe I'll load my stock 2.2 ROM and get the OTA then try again.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stargazer418:
That's not true, my MIUI shows my number without doing anything.

I think it's related to the SIM card. Did you use the new card that came with the phone or the one from your previous phone? My mom, for example, is using the SIM that she got about 10 years ago when we signed up with T-Mobile and it shows Unknown, but I'm using the new one and it shows my number where it should.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Well you must be the only person using miui that can see their number. I've tried brand new sim and old sim. Its not a sim issue its the rom itself

I have a related thread in Themes & Apps (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13602929#post13602929), but my question here is more general:

Do copy-protected applications work on rooted Nooks, more specifically on the SD installs of CM7/Froyo/HC/etc?

I'm not sure how Google implemented authentication for the copy protected apps -- Google account based vs device based. When do these apps actually check for authentication? One-time deal, or periodically/randomly/set schedule by dev? I ask because I would like to know if an app I'm purchasing won't work if I don't have access to a wifi connection, or because I'm running off an SD card install and it's expecting to install itself to EMMC. I'm unable to even open my purchased video player app (presumably because it's having trouble authenticating)

Ok so theres a few apps I deleted from my atrix ,using TiBU, that I just read shouldn't have been removed.

I honestly can't even remember which ones they were, but I think it was 4 and they were some stock ATT apps that were deleted from the system folder.

I basically just want to know if anyone has the stock bloatware so that I'm able to restore them and then just freeze them with TiBU.

I have rooted my LG G2X and flashed the Clockwork Recovery image using ROM Manager. I have read that this is a "fake flash" but I have booted into recovery using ROM Manager and done a nandroid backup and it seems to work fine? I have a 2 GIG SD installed and it looks like Clockwork only works from the external SD card?

I am running the stock ROM at the moment until I can find a stable custom ROM to use as my daily driver. I want to keep the phone rooted and the recovery image intact until I find a stable custom ROM.

I am looking for the procedure to flash back to stock recovery and unroot if I have to return the phone for repair to T-Mobile in the future. If there is a stock recovery image that can be flashed using clockwork or a one-click method, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have the G2X Model LG P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r4d14n7:
If you continue to boot into CWM using RomManager (for now) your stock recovery is still intact. If you want to return to stock from the point you're at, stick the stock nandroid restore image on your sd card and restore it. Then uninstall Titanium Backup and unroot the phone using the SuperOneClick root program. If you would like to continue flashing ROMs I suggest doing a *real* flash of CWM (which you can still reverse in the future) in case you end up in boot loops and cannot access RomManager.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I'm definitely tired of everyone complaining about it. I'm especially tired of people creating new threads about it. Either deal with what you have, exchange until you find one with minimal or none at all or just return your phone and wait for the next best thing. Get over it or just deal with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
first of all, not everyone came from the galaxy s, so that was an irrelevent comment.

of course it's a big factor in whether to keep the phone. people paid 500 for this phone, and that's not little money. at least for me and many other people, paying 500 for something means getting a device with no hardware defects. no we aren't looking for the perfect device, but such a defect for such price is just very hard to accept.

I paid $200 with contract for this phone. I exchanged a few times already to realize that almost every, if not all, g2x's have screen bleeds, and since I don't watch a lot of videos, I decide to just keep the phone and deal with it. It did took me a while to get over the fact that I'm paying for a device with this type of defect. and i guess it also depends on your phone usage.

I think it's fine for people to complain about the screen defect, but it does get annoying for see them starting new threads. they should keep them within 1-3 threads.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smallsmx3:
I don't take offense. I didn't think most people read anything in the gen section. Most threads in the general section are a waste of space but its funny when someone asks a serious question and post in the wrong section they get flamed.

I paid $500 for an atrix and all I got was a locked bootloader. I know it was my decision but that's also why I left att for tmo

Hi all!

I have recently been playing around with the Sense 2.1 + Gingerbread (aka GingerSense) ROMs, and had to of course port (and improve) my original PCB Sense Theme from days ago. I have been testing it myself for quite a few days, and I'm finally happy with how it turned out, so I wanted to offer it up to all GingerSense XDA users.

Couple of things to note:

This design was meant to be close to stock for those who actually dig the Sense scheme, but want something unique

The file is a 7.7mb signed .APK created using apk-manager 4.9 for Sense 2.1...I may make a Sense 3.0 port if there is enough demand (need to play with .m10 editing still)

It is installable on HDPI devices only by simply copying to your device and running, and is uninstallable by Titanium Backup, or applying another Skin in Sense, and highlighting PCB Sense, then MENU --> DELETE...it doesn't appear in "Settings --> Applications", but why would you want to uninstall it anyways? ;)

I have edited a poopload of images with utmost care and attention to detail including those precious draw9patch ones

The tricky thing with the draw9patch is to have a pattern get 'stretched/repeated' without looking crappy...I believe this may be one of the few Sense themes out there which attempts to skin >90% of resource images (I may be wrong, but still)

I tested (and approved of) this theme on my Desire (Bravo) running LeeDrOiD v3.3.1 and InsertCoin GB

The font used in all screenshots is "Ubuntu", however "Storopia" also compliments the skin nicely

The font used to make the custom clock widget is "OPTICBOT"

This theme took me about 55-60 hours to complete

I've seen some other mods/ports of my theme before, and while I am a believer in sharing and caring, it would be nice if you asked/PM'ed me before using my theme for any other purpose than your own enjoyment. I'm a nice dood, I promise, and it's good to give credit where it's due! ;)

If you'd like to buy me a beer, coffee, or any other kind offering to say thanks, it's greatly appreciated and I will thank you personally... (Donate link is in my post profile)

Anyways, have a look at the preview images below, and please leave your thoughts! I hope you enjoy it!!! (Oh, and keep an eye on this thread for updates)

Hi, it looks great. However when you go on the phone it shows stock images etc
[Android Themes] lamecake:
Veryyy nice theme. Appreciate all the hard work :)
[Android Themes] scar45:
Heya retrosling, if you mean when you are in the "Phone" app, then yes, some images may not be fully skinned, but this is a limitation of the HTC Sense Skin .apk format itself. Note that there are no flashable .zips needed to use this theme, and that should allow it to be installed on multiple devices (with Sense 2.1 of course).

To skin many other components means that I would have to build a flashable .zip which modifies 'framework-res.apk', 'com.htc.resources.apk' and 'SystemUI.apk', and since these are based on certain ROMs, and can therefore be unique, I chose not to go that route for this theme (the logistics/maintenance of handling all bases/versions/ROM-specific customizations for these 3 .apks would be a nightmare of time consumption!)

Believe me, that I skinned nearly every single PNG that would allow it. The only ones missing (for now) would be for landscape support. Once we start getting more GingerSense ROMs with landscape homescreens, I will be adding them though. Good thing for updating is that you'd just have to re-download the .apk (same exact link/filename), and the .XML file defines that it's a newer version, then your phone should ask you if you want to update it. Super clean this .apk Skin route.

To everyone else who offered your great comments/feedback, thank you very much!! It's great to see others enjoying the benefits of the hard work it took to put together this theme! :D

All the best.

Have I missed something?
[Android Themes] artymarty:
Amazing.

I will say that I have allways found the backdrops you pick very distracting and make the icons hard to see, but then I am addicted to the glactic core live wallpaper - you should try it with the pcb sense - it really ties the screen theme together!

One thing I miss from the old PCB theme is the green circuit board buttons, but then I am sure I will get used to this... (see attached for what I mean)

perhaps an option in the future?

Again, Thanks!!!

Warmly, Marty
