Please forgive this post, at this time I do not own a Charge but looking at buying one. Does Tango work?
[Verizon Droid Charge] bdmack00:
sound does not work with Tango on the Charge.... also, video from front facing camera is sideways...
[Verizon Droid Charge] diverbelow:
I would think that will be something they would fix after people report it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chaoscentral:
who knows when, still waiting on Tango to support the Xoom properly, and that's been out for 2 months now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] diverbelow:
I emailed Tango support and got a response saying, "Hi Rick, Brett,

Yes our engineers are aware of the problem and investigating. Thanks for reporting."

So I wonder when the update will come?
[Verizon Droid Charge] s44:
Try bugging the fring devs -- they offered a beta for Atrix and Inspire users weeks before official app support. (And this despite the stock AT&T lockdown on sideloading!)
[Verizon Droid Charge] diverbelow:
According to Tango's FB page: facebook . com/ TangoMe they fixed Tango for Xoom on May 12th.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chaoscentral:
only took em 2 months lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] randywintle:
Tango had been updated to support the charge!
[Verizon Droid Charge] diverbelow:
Yes, they did fix the video displaying correctly but audio is not working. You can hear the person but they can't hear you.

I updated my ticket with Tango support with the new information.

UPDATE: Just heard back from Tango Support:

There is a new comment in topic Droid Charge (click to see the full comment history):

Avi said:

Hi guys,

Yes, the bug fix in the latest version was only for the sideways video and we're still working on the audio problem with the Droid Charge. We hope to release it soon and will post a notice here when we do but in the meantime one workaround is to connect a Samsung headset to the Charge. This will allow the audio to go through.

Thanks!

Is there a way to get Skype video to work on it?

Qik has to fix the camera since it uses the rear camera. At least the audio works than tango.

Gtalk Video

There is an app called vtok. Soon as the developer gets it to work on the Charge will be be nice. It uses your gtalk account to do video. So far it only works on a few devices and one is not the DC.

Maybe if enough DC users have emailed him he might make it work sooner.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ColonelSeitan:
Fring worked when I tried it shortly with my wife. The quality was pretty crappy, but it worked
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
Please forgive me if xda is not the correct place to post this question, but I am desperately trying to figure out an issue I am having with Ti Backup Pro. I have also posted this on android forums but not having much luck getting a response there...

Anyways, here is my problem.

I've had the Mesmerize for about two weeks now and gotten to the point where I need to do backups...I have rooted the phone and installed TiBU PRO but am now running into issues.

I can backup/restore my user apps without a problem but anytime I try to backup system data the app just hangs...doesnt force close, or progress.

Has anyone else seen this or know of a fix?

Here is what I have done so far.

Uninstalled/Reinstalled TiBU

Installed BusyBox from within app

Changed App Processing Mode to AUTO Indirect.

I appreciate any help!
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Not sure how to fix but it's usually not a good idea to restore system data anyway.
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
I've seen a lot of people say the same thing...but the greater problem for me is that I can't run the user app and system data batch job so I cant backup things like my SMS without manually deselecting the "red" text items..I think that makes automated backups nearly impossible especially as I add new apps/data.

Am I wrong?
[Samsung Mesmerize] wyrdtrtle:
diff busybox

I,m not sure if this will help but u might try going to the fasinate dev forum and getting adrynalines busybox 1.19 i think that or 1.18 is in most of the roms that r being released. ive never had the same problem so im not 100% this will do anything. also ur sig says stock rom so u might ask one of the devs if that rom isnt deoxed then i dont think it will let you do anything with the system apps. if im wrong somebody plz correct me and like i say u should pm one of the guys that r listed as ops on the Rom releases.

i hope this helps and good luck
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
What ROM are you running? I've had this problem with Heinz 57. It actually does back up and restore, although it doesn't "end" the action in the app and it looks like its still going even though its done.
[Samsung Mesmerize] wwian:
titanium stalls

Finally! Someone with the same problem I've been having.

I run CM7.

I started having this issue with 7.0.2-Supersonic (I have an HTC EVO).

I started installing the CM7 nightly updates thinking that maybe it is the ROM and that it would get corrected.

But, no luck. The issue only is happening in Titanium when I try to restore a single app or a batch of apps.

I have even tried deleting all backups, wiping the phone, creating new backups, verifying backups... and still get the issue where it just hangs...
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Have any of you tried contacting the developer of the app?
[Samsung Mesmerize] jrusch:
I am having the same issue with my Mesmerize. Titanium backup was working fine until the program had an update a couple of weeks ago. I notified the vendor and they had me try a couple of things but it didn't fix it. I sent them a logcat file about a week ago but I haven't heard back from them since.
[Samsung Mesmerize] wwian:
duh. damn, i feel like an idiot. SO, turns out TB has a nice lil wiki. ... and in reading it, they suggest hitting the "problems?" button in TB.

Well, I updated my superuser and busybox and BOOM! - TB with now working just the way it should.

So, hit the "problems?" button and follow the guides!

:)
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
I am running the Stock ROM right now. Still researching which custom ROM to use...

I have contacted the dev but not heard anything back yet, and I did try the problems button but that didn't help either.

I got so frustrated that I did a complete wipe of the phone and reinstalled TiBU but still haven't had any luck...

Well at least I can get some use out of my $$ with the app freeze functionality.
[Samsung Mesmerize] joel.bourquard:
Hi everyone,

Very sorry for the delay. Now we'll start to work on this issue. We're in touch with one user who's having this problem already, but in case one of you wants to help or try a test version, please e-mail us directly at: titanium.android <<at>> gmail.com

Thanks a lot ! And don't worry, this annoying bug will be squashed :)

Edit: I forgot to mention that (I think) you can temporarily workaround the issue by un-checking the "System apps (apk)" checkbox in the Titanium Backup preferences. Let us know whether it helps...
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
Thanks! I look forward to seeing the fix.

Just as an FYI... I did try to uncheck the System App.apk and rerun a backup, unfortunately I got the same results :(
[Samsung Mesmerize] joel.bourquard:
Dear all,

We believe we might have found the problem. Please feel free to try this test version, and report here. If we get positive feedback quickly, we'll do our best to schedule a release for tonight.

http://matrixrewriter.com/tmp/TitaniumBackup-test-2011-05-17.apk

Thank you !
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
Whoo Hoo!!

Installed the test version and was able to perform a full backup. I was also able to do a restore and verify the backup.

Thanks so much!!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] joel.bourquard:
That is awesome! Which Samsung model do you have?
[Samsung Mesmerize] mattw951:
I have the Samsung Mesmerize from US Cellular running Stock Froyo.

Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks again! I can't say I expected such a quick response...certainly impressed me and I will be posting a review on the marketplace!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] joel.bourquard:
Thank you for your support! :)

The fixed version is published on the Market now, so you can all switch to it.

Have fun!

[Atrix 4G General] mapobean:
Just out of curiosity do you have a theme ontop of gingsrblur, any boot animations installed via root exp. I am starting to geta couple of issues too. I do not have gingerbler but do have the new gladiatrix themed with my own custom boot. I mostly have issues with my browser's crashing.
[Atrix 4G General] Born_Immaculate88:
I experienced the same issue.This is what I did.

1. Turned off my phone and pulled the battery.

2. Put the battery back in

3. Turned on my phone while holding the volume down button.

4. Scrolled to "Android Recovery" and clicked volume up.

5. Got to the screen with the "recovery triangle" image.

6. Tapped on the screen in the bottom right corner above the "search" soft key, the one that looks like a magnifying glass.

7. Factory reset my Atrix.

8. Reinstalled GingerBlur

9. Rebooted my Atrix and then everything worked fine.

You might want to go with a newer version of the GingerBlur software as well, the developer has been working very hard and is up to v4 now :)

Hope this helps!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] EleCtrOx666:
Hello,

There's a simple way for those who want to change default homescreen.

You have to be rooted.

So, you first have to download a file explorer that supports root, for example Root Explorer(paid, I use this one).

Then, go to /system and open default.prop with text editor.

Now, add this line:

ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=3

Where 3 is the number of the default screen you want - 1. So default screen 4 => 3.

Now, just reboot and it should work. If you have any problem/question, feel free to ask.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] EinPaul:
At first: Sounds great! Thanks! :D

But:

Afaik (only from some (elder?) videos) it's possible to add and delete home screens. Could you tell me or try what happens if you set this var to e.g. 5 (=> default home screen is 4) but you only have 3 home screens at all? The same has to be considered if you accidentally delete the last home screen and this one is/has been set to default.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] balto:
Worked perfectly! Thanks for the tweak was missing this feature from my past android phones.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] robot1000:
Could it be made into a simple apk file?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BatterBits:
Even easier - no root required

Sorry to steal your thunder -

Pinch zoom (helicopter mode) longpress & drag will do it.

Ian
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] poofish:
Ian, the point of this mod is so that when you hit your home button, while in your homescreens, it will revert to the 4th screen. Normally when you are in your homescreens and then hit the home button again, it'll revert you to the first screen as default. This is the case even if you change the order of your homescreens using pinch to zoom.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] krabman:
Cool I hoped this was coming. Cant stand being on 1 as the home screen.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Abra_Cadabra:
Thanks EleCtrOx666!

Works great.

If it is this easy to make the change I don't understand why Samsung didn't include it as an option in one of the configuration menus.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] EleCtrOx666:
Just tried it: it will simply go to the last homescreen you have.

I'll see what I can do.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] peadarog:
It worked great with root explorer, but not so much with ES File Explorer -- it does have a "root" mode, but it asks you whether you are using the CyanogenMod or the HiAPK rom.

For n00bs, like myself, it's also worth pointing out that you won't be able to edit the build.prop unless you click on the "mount rw" (read/write) button up at the top first. Afterwards, you'll probably want to click the "mount ro" (read only) at the top again.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BatterBits:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BeelzeM:
I'm not an active Android dev. But isn't there a var you can call and just divide by 2?

Like:

ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen = ro.csc.homescreen.screencount/2;

Something like that? Excuse me if this obviously doesn't work, it was just a thought, as it would make it easier and won't require users to change that value whenever they change the amount of homescreens.

i'm a beginner in this so pls have a little patience with me.

I got a SGS2 and i'm interested to know if there's anyway to root the phone without flashing a custom kernel taking in account that u have this "nice" counter on the phone.

Very nice explained how to modif home-screen number.

is it here any way to get temp root?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] FxFusion:
hi sorry to be a pain, but i would love to be change my default home screen button, I followed the guide, and rooted my phone successfully (i think) and once superuser was installed I went and found the defualtprop file and edited it as guided by adding that line, i clicked save & exit (at which point it tells me it made a backup of the original file) then after I restart the phone it just goes back to normal, like I never touched the file...

anyone know where i'm going wrong?

This doesn't work for me. I can't add that line. I've tried two different text editors and two root explorers (one with an editor built in) and they both say the file can't be saved. No other programs open. I restarted the phone and tried again.

Anybody else have this problem?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] b33p_:
Thanks for the help via PM.

In case anyone else had my problem, it was solved by using Root Explorer. Click "Mount R/W", do the edit, save, reboot.

Works perfectly.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] oleost:
I have the same issue.

Root explorer.

Mount as R/W

Open in text editor

Added the line.

Save and exit

Got successfully.(Tried secound time to go into to file again and check, and the line was still there.)

Mount as R/O

Shutdown phone.

Powered on

Nothing changed, checked the file, code line was gone.

Any help?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] b33p_:
The way I got it to work (as per OP's instructions):

Go to /system

Click Mount as R/W (which changed to Mount as R/O)

Open file in text editor

Insert new line at the end of everything that's there

Menu, Save Changes (backup was made automatically)

Go back

Click Mount as R/O (changes it back to Mount as R/W)

Closed app.

Shutdown.

Turn on.

Worked for me.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Rrryan2:
You were right, there is an even easier method (at least in the Fr4ggor modified TW4), but that's just not it.

I tried the method in the OP of modifying /system/default.prop but had no success, same with /default.prop.

And then I noticed... from the Home Screen or App Drawer, Menu Button -> Preferences brings up a menu that allows customization, including the default home screen.

Not sure if this works in the stock TW4 though....
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Jiia:
Nah, there's no such button in stock TW4. The devs at Samsung and HTC should really add some sort of "advanced mode" switch that would enable all those customization options...

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mguel:
Great!!! thanks mate!

This is one of the major usability flaws on TW imo... there is no sense in having the first screen as default... Probably they copied the idea from iOS... but they copied it badly since on iOS it's there because to the left you have the search screen... on TW you have the left side completely lost and useless... Bad!

but now is great!!! thanks!!

I have some problem with changing default.prop on my S2 ;(

First of all my default.prop i in / not in /system but i will copy new one in both locations.

I changing this file using adb tool:

adb pull /default.prop
add line to prop file
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw rootfs /
mount -o remount,rw /dev/... /system
adb push default.prop /
adb push default.prop /system
adh shell
mount -o remount,ro rootfs /
mount -o remount,ro /dev/... /system

After that, i'm checking content of file - all is correct. Reboot.

After reboot file in / is different (without new defaultscreen line)

ROM: Stock - 2.3.3

Kernel: XXKE4
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jpbl1976:
Thanks for this great mod. However, mine worked a bit differently: it was +1 to the screen I wanted to set as my default screen, so I set mine as 2 to get screen 3 as default (I am running 5 screens, making 3 the middle screen). Running on a rooted stock KE2 ROM.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] santacruzdz:
could you tell us please where can we find your app ??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Rovman:
uhm, you need to mount R/W before you open the file in text editor, not after.

Its very simple. Open root explorer, navigate to /system, click mount R/W, find the .prop file, longpress "open in text editor", add the line and then menu --> save and exit.

job done.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zingle:
Half you guys are trying to change the wrong file. It can all be done on root explorer also

You need to navigate to system folder and modify the Default.prop file in there and not the Default.prop file in the root directory.

You also need to change the permissions of the file. So in root explorer allow RW for the system folder if you do it for root you will need to do it again for system folder.

Ok once you have found the correct file long press and select permissions tick all the boxes. The Long press scroll to open in text editor and add the line. You will see a file that does not look like the screen shots in this thread. Save change back to RO and reboot phone . This works
