Title says it all. I have seen a bunch of them, but haven't really found any good reviews of them all... e.g. a comparison. What do you all use?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Tarpit_Carnivore:
Personally, I find the built in HTC ones to be the best I've used. Beautiful Widgets has some but I think they're not quite as good as HTC's.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] edster00:
I agree with frankspin; I have tried beautiful widgets but I find I prefer HTC's also.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] efaden:
I like HTCs also, but Sense is pretty slow and I prefer LauncherPro, which means no Sense widgets.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Tarpit_Carnivore:
A year ago I would have agreed but I think you need to give it another go this time around. It's much improved from 1.5.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrdo:
what happened to the face recognition as an unlock method ?

i thought the SGS2 had it or did i dream that ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eddiemc:
No dream mate, there was an english review with a girl showing the facerecognition unlock. I haven't received the phone yet, but it should be a setting under the security tab..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumble6059:
afraid not pal...see attached screen shot :-(

would have been cool though!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoonRaven:
Yup, the first demo video showed it. I guess it has been removed for security reasons (face recognition isn't really secure). Can't find it in settings here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
I heard it was vulnerable to the good old attack of "hold photo up to camera".

Too much of a gimmick if you ask me tbh.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrdo:
i would prefer to decide myself if something is secure or not though ...

it seems a bit strange to have a piece of functionality working and then ditch it - gimmicks are an integral part of the sales process. :-) i quite like going through the process of thinking something is cool and incredibly useful only to realise that it's completely pointless after i've used it a couple of times ...

disappointed - perhaps the facial recognition code would have added a few mm to the thickness of the phone like the NFC hardware ... :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FPRobber:
It's not there. It's just the three standard options: Password, PIN or unlock pattern.

Edit: Late :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amireshan:
Right, this is what there, nothing else. Samsung just a cheated cows. made peoples go crazy by showing what coming soon eg, NFC CHIPS & FACE SECURITY, then half the features is gone missing. What a con cows :mad:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoonRaven:
Well to be honest that was my theory in the forums :)

I still think it hold up though.

Also want to add that there are games currently missing from my list that I know have appeared on my list at one stage. Odd. I thought this would fetch all Xperia Play optimized games. So strange that the games seem to come and go.

- it would also be good if if read what games I have already purchased and removed them from the list.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zerojay:
Something I noticed was that there was Lumines for Xperia Play on the Market but didn't show up in the launcher or from the Market link within the launcher. I attempted to buy it and found out why.

Lumines for Xperia Play was marked as incompatible with my Xperia Play. I told the company and they've since fixed it. Also, for games to show up from the Market link within the launcher, they must have "XPERIA PLAY optimized" somewhere in the app description. They have also done this now so you can find it through that method.

I also sent them a list of bugs and stuff to fix.

how i can download psx games for Playstation Pocket ?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shotgunfool:
Launch the playstation pocket app, in the top right corner click the search button, and it will take you to the page with the psx games on it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] kingvillain:
I find it odd that two gameloft games I purchased have appeared in my PS launcher, these are Rainbow six and Backstab:confused: They do also appear in my Xperia Play launcher with all the other games I have purchased.

I`m getting quite tired of the Playstation store on Play, only six titles available:

Cool Boarders 2

Destruction Derby

Jumping Flash

Medievil

Kula World

The list just does not seem to be getting updated, and to me this is a poor selection certainly not worth the £3.99 price tag (in the UK).

[General Questions and Answers] max9777:
Ok, here is my issue. I dropped my HTC EVO a few times and now when people call me it goes straight into voice mail. So I went and ordered myself a new HTC EVO, I rooted it. I install VaelPak 3.2 remastered rc2 again and my phone goes into infinite loop (where it says VaelPAk remastered then the little shooting streams, and instead of loading it does that over and over and over) So did some research and Wiped Delvik Cache and it did not help. I tried doing factory reset and it did not help the phone stays at the 4g area and does not want to seem to turn on. I had to get a new phone. So I got the phone tried again and guess what same thing happen AGAIN!!!. Now I just got my new phone again yesterday and I rooted it. But I am afraid of installing VaelPak again due to the last 2 failures. I had VaelPak previously i loved it and the features and its irritating to not have those features now.

Please any advice would be greatly appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] lonlawrence:
DUDE, that's terrible. I'm loving RC2. Netflix plays on it and it doesn't on any other ROM I've tried... and they took netflix for evo off the market for now. Anyway, just to recap, when you wiped did you wipe cache, davlik cache and factory reset/wipe? I do all three... and do it 2 or 3 times (sorry if this sounds like overkill, but from other guys experience, this sometimes solves the problem). Then, don't use ROM manager or any other way to install... install it from recovery (install zip from sd card). reboot and try again. Hope that helps

nandroid is similar to Windows Restore point, right?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soeren1705:
Hi,

Searched the forum without finding anything I can use.

Got a new SDcard, a Kingston 8 gb class 10. I mounts ok in Android but will not in recovery CWM 3x

I used Gparted as I normally do do make the fat32 and ext4 partitions. Tried formating in an other android phone but it will not mount in recovery.

Anybody with a god tip ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jakedude2011:
And both partitions are primary?

Dont know about Gparted,(never used it myself) but I also changed my sd-card two days ago, and I used Minitools partition program, to format FAT32 ann make EXT3. Worked like a charm... after following below steps.

For at beholde en nuværende ROM, og skifte SD kort uden at flashe og det hele:

(translated: to keep present ROM and change sd-card without flashing)

1/ Make a full nandroid backup

2/ Now make a full backup of your sdcard via windows

(copy all the **** – including the new nandroid backup)

3/ Insert new sdcard

4/ Boot up your system.it looks ugly and most stuff is missing. (*spring resten over og flash=skip rest)

5/ Get rom manager from market

6/ Format sdcard with it – 512mb ext, 0mb swap

7/ Go to recovery, switch on usb mount, copy your saved sdcard on it,

including that nandroid backup

8/ Go to advanced, reboot recovery

9/ Restore your nandroid backup

Done!

*Spring resten over, hvis du har lavet format og ext inden,

og hvis du installer ny ROM ved opstart!!

(*Skip rest, if U have formatted and made a ext, and flash new ROM at boot)

I'm runnin kings ultra r5 and need the easiest way to reinstall a few stock apps, i have searched so far came up with two methods one is with file manager app. I have es file and astro neither worked the other method i read on was pushing thru adb which is if i'm not mistaken manually typing codes thru the command ??? Which i am really not trying to do can i just flash them thru recovery ? I'm trying to install 2 stock apps which are on my sd card already,i'm running clockwork mod recovery also.... Any help would be appreciated thanks ...............
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Place the apks on the root of your sdcard, then use root explorer, enable r/w mode, then move them to the /system/app folder, enable permission by long pressing, then tap to install.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayo1978:
Thanks i did forget to mention apps are in zip file also,same method applies ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Do the method as I said, you just need to extract the apk from the zip file, then you'll be good to go.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Is there a Browser tab mod for Coredroid rom V6.x? I can't find it. Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Modding the stock browser to add tabs may not be possible. You're better off ditching it and using a different browser (there are many on the Market). I use Dolphin HD and it has tabbed browsing. The Coco browser is based on stock and has tabs, but doesn't have very good ratings.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Thanks for your reply, but if I'm not mistaken Coredroid does offer the Mods but for version 5.x (attached to their post), so I was wondering if it worked or was available for 6.x
[HTC Inspire 4G] americasteam:
I use CoreDroid also, but haven't seen these available for v6. I would pm Sergio and ask him if they are planning on releasing these mods.

Phone is starting to download new firmware my phone is also showing 1x while this is happening

Anyone know what it is?
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Pics or it didn't happen. :)

JK, are you stock?
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
The new radio.
[Thunderbolt General] angry english:
yeah i just restored my phone from bamf back to stock, but its still rooted, its already got the updated radio from here, oh well we will see, shame its put my phone in 1X while its downloading, better plug this on charge lol
[Thunderbolt General] Cubs2008:
Definitely the new radio...saw this on another forum:

Results of the new update today:

[Thunderbolt General] ncwildcat:
The reboot radio?? Interesting that they are still pushing this out when it has so many problems
[Thunderbolt General] ckochinsky125:
Maybe the delay was because they were patching up the issues many were having with the leaked version. Lets hope so anyway.
[Thunderbolt General] angry english:
Ill post what my phone says when its finished

compare to what`s stock and to the info in thye post above
[Thunderbolt General] Cubs2008:
+1 I also heard (rumor) that they also pulled it because of the LTE/eHRPD issues and now that they've supposedly fixed them they're comfortable pushing this RUU back out. Of course it's all speculation unless they actually make a statement.
[Thunderbolt General] Nusince:
If they pulled it to make changes to the radio it would not be released with the same version number, which this one appears to be. Also, there is no way a new radio version would make it through VZW's QC group that quickly.
[Thunderbolt General] ericmc:
Looks like I'm already have the update according to the baseband and other stuff a few posts back??
[Thunderbolt General] scuccia:
Angry English,

Pull the update.zip from /cache before you apply it.

Then upload it so we can rip it apart. You can also run a logcat and just get the link for us.
[Thunderbolt General] angry english:
dont wanna worry anyone, but this new update has made my phone try to re-activate, and it will not, im on with verizon now they dont why lol, im taking this hunk of poop back
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
They were making changes to the software that the cell sites (BSSs) use. The new radio firmware for the phone wasn't happy with some BSSs. That's why some people had reboots, and others were fine - it depended on the local BSS (probably related to who made it - Nortel, Motorola, Lucent, etc.). The new radio worked fine for me at home, but when I traveled to another city, I had frequent reboots.

That's why they disabled eHRPD for a while - until they could get all the problem sites updated with newer software. eHRPD is back on now, and they're restarting the phone radio rollout.

The reboot problem was caused by software in the cell sites, not the phone.
[Thunderbolt General] Cubs2008:
Makes sense mike...thanks. I figured it had to be site issues when I had problems at home but not at work hitting LTE after the outage (where before I could hit LTE at both with no problems.) The site at work would affect way more customers than the site near my home.
[Thunderbolt General] droided1:
Shouldn't apply update if rooted.
[Thunderbolt General] ilovebbq:
sweet.

i hope it doesn't kill my phone!
[Thunderbolt General] AndroidGraphix:
No update yet for me. That released leak is scarry. I really don't want to use anything other than.. 7cdma and 6lte radio combo. I'll wait until others report on this new ota before hbooting again.
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
If you're rooted, don't apply the update.

Or do we not have a choice if we are on stock root? Will it just force itself?
[Thunderbolt General] angry english:
gives the option to update, defer or reject

im trying to find it now for our devs to look at but i cant find it anywhere
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
Run a logcat and post it. It should have the URL to the update.
[Thunderbolt General] m1mgd00:
That seems unlikely since the software / baseband versions didn't change.

OTA Firmware update bricked my phone

As others have said in this forum, don't download and run the update if you're rooted.

My phone won't boot up anymore. It shows the little green android with a white triangle and yellow ! in it. Not sure what that is yet, but it's not great.

UPDATE: I was able to boot into clockworkmod recovery and wipe the cache. It seems as if the update didn't install, so the phone is working again.
[Thunderbolt General] AndroidGraphix:
TeamandIrc just posted this on their twitter. They said, it's the same leak. I had been running on. 7cdma and 6lte radio combo. Today I hbooted the old leak and I'm noticing much better signal and transition from 4g to 3g. It also appears eHPRD is back online. I'm guessing the problem was with the towers not the radio which might explain the random reboots.
[Thunderbolt General] AndroidGraphix:
Why would you hboot a signed RUU when you're rooted? You were rooted right?
[Thunderbolt General] haggisman14:
Just got the OTA update on my stock non rooted phone and in not having any issues, made a switch from 4g to 3G pretty quickly too.
[Thunderbolt General] capflya:
There have been several posts confirming the issue was cell tower software that needed to be updated so you should be gtg with the radio update they leaked a few weeks ago.

I've had it installed since they leaked it and I havent had any issues here in nor-cal. I work from home but had to go in to San Francsico last week and didn't have any issues with 4g/3g transition so the SF towers must already be fixed. Forgot to check the eHPRD but it was working so I didn't really care.
[Thunderbolt General] xivxivxiv:
Because, this is my first android phone after four years of blackberry. I'm very new to this. Lessons learned, etc etc. My Bolt is fixed atm, and seems it'll be OK.
[Thunderbolt General] AndroidGraphix:
Please explain how you fixed it. I'm sure others will make the same mistake and will fill the thread up with questions related to this. I personally would have deleted the RUU off the root of my SD then put the unsigned Root back up then hbooted the RUU again.
[Thunderbolt General] akanatrix:
My stock phone that took the OTA rebooted after about an hour. Never had a random reboot on the release firmware. Either the reboot bug persists, or the towers in Phoenix are still causing reboot. I would guess it is the firmware.
[Thunderbolt General] NotMatt:
2nd on that one akanatrix. After doing the OTA update on non-rooted phone, I have had one spontaneous reboot as well... in about the same time frame as you describe. Hope this isn't a sign of what's to come. :|

BTW, I'm in Wenatchee, WA and eHRPD is definitely back on here, shows in the Network info under settings.
[Thunderbolt General] akanatrix:
I'll wait it out a bit and see how bad the rebooting is. May just revert to release firmware as the OTA does not fix anything that I really care about.
[Thunderbolt General] ska.t73:
I'm in Phoenix as well (right now I'm in an office at Peoria and the 17), I've been on the update since it leaked and have never had a reboot. The towers in Phoenix didn't seem to have the problem.

I would chalk up that reboot to your phone settling in after the update. I wouldn't call it an issue unless it continues.
[Thunderbolt General] akanatrix:
Lemme know if you have an issue. I was driving through Scottsdale and realized my phone rebooted after I drove half an hour out of my way cause navigation was no longer running.
