Is anyone else having an issue where the third party twitter apps don't allow you to connect with CM7?

Granted this is a Q but I figured if it was a prevalent enough issue it may be a general thing.

Right now I've tried Plume and Seesmic and LauncherPro...none worked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
its because the time is incorrect on a system level. Only the Twitter app seems to work.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billygreen69:
I thought I totally bricked my Captivate, but it turns out it will enter download mode and after a couple of days I even got the AT&T screen to load up (though nothing happens after that). I thought I could use Odin3 to flash stock back onto it, but every time I connect it via USB Windows recognizes it as a malfunctioned device. None of the Odin programs I use will recognize it now. Is there any way I can get my phone back? Any help is appreciated.

This may be no big deal to those that have had a smartphone for years, but the g2x is my first smartphone.. I'm just geeked by what happened today and wanted to shared..

My cable modem was dying so I had to go get a new one.. I really dislike buying things at local stores because of getting around 25%-50% savings on newegg, ebay, etc. But, the modem was about dead and I couldn't wait..

At any rate, I go to BestBuy and find one.. I'm standing in line for a register and I was like "hey, i got this new shop savvy app (barcode scanner). Lemme check it out".. to see how much I was getting boned for. As I start looking at the discounted prices online for 25%-35%, the next register opens. I walk up and say, "Boy, do you have any discounts/rebates for this modem? You guys are way overpriced." She looks at my phone, "Well, we price match for local retailers." I hit the back button, hit local retailers.. and find it at walmart for 25% less. We look at their website together on my phone, and she price matches it.

Is that cool or what? <3 this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] danz8509:
that is really cool!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
I am amazed at how much I use my phone every day. Wait til you get it figured out completely (?), you're gonna have so much fun......I can definately recommend rooting it. This will give you more control over it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Joe333x:
lol sorry this made me laugh haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
All set on the rooting and CWM via Nvflash.. Any suggestions on messing around with it tonight for some fun? Or any apps?

I'm currently messing with the Wifi Analysis app.. After I put my new modem/router in.. I still wasn't getting a decent signal. It showed me which channel was giving out the best signal.. Now instead of bouncing between 1-2, sometimes 3 bars. it's holding steady at 3, sometimes 4. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
haha.. you know what i meant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] johnnyp500:
I dont mean to hi-jack this thread but this is my first android and everyone is saying root it. Can you please elaborate on what more control will u have over it by rooting it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
well.. i have 2 cool apps I use that need a rooted phone. Maybe 3-4.. but these 2 stand out.. Titanium Backup (freeze, defrost, backup, and reinstall apps). And Seek Droid.. allows you to find your Droid if you lose it, but the best part.. you can wipe the phone, TURN ON GPS remotely, and a bunch of other things. Best .99 I spent.

EDIT: Plus, there are some cool things guys are doing.. Like creating ROMs and such. For instance, CM7 is getting hammered on w/ the 2.3.4 OS.. which means, hopefully..and eventually.. Google talk's video will be working on the front facing camera. Some flashes are tweaks to make the phone run faster.. And eventually, it may even dispense cash.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] johnnyp500:
I have Seek Droid too without a rooted phone. Whats the advantage of running CM7 as opposed to just keeping the stock once the 2.3 is released?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xdmds:
The ability to run undervolted kernels which will save tons of battery life. Add-ons, special features and stuff you can't do on the stock rom, up to date support, increased performance. The list goes on. Oh yea and the risk of becoming a crack flasher.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
oh, sorry.. thought it needed a root on that one.

From what I have read, it seems the stock GB will be 2.3.3 not 2.3.4. Also, it seems that cm7 is suppose to be the roms of all roms. Idk.. the way people talk about it, it's supposed to help the phone run smoother, probably better battery life... and I would guess it's less intrusive.

But ya know.. I installed one of the nightlies.. and I uninstalled it. It's not ready.. Once they have a stable release out, I'll give it another shot. But it made my phone bogg down and it used much more memory to operate. So idk... I'll check it out but I may stick with stock myself. Really, its just a geek thing to do and have fun with..

Rooting is easy and it's also very easy to undo.. If it's just for the titanium backup app so you can freeze that stuff like apppack, car home, and all kinds of other things... it's worth it imho.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 299792458:
OP you got lucky the person was unaware that Walmart online is a whole different animal than Walmart local. The retail stores are not affiliated with the online site for pricing or inventory. Many times they will be close but the local stores can't honor the online Walmart prices. I think its crap, and many local places around here know that and wont price match Walmart.com pricing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EmceeGeek:
yeah, this was funny. wait until you find out you can google printable coupons, and use them at stores. just say it came in an email and they'll discount you. ;D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
It was in stock at 2 of the local stores. If it's available in-store from their site, then you get it at that price.

I don't believe in luck, but I do believe in coinciding events. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slickerxcuh:
cool story bro. no trolling here honest to god lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 299792458:
Has someone at your local Walmart store actually told you that? I have yet to find a store to honor the price regardless of stock. They all say the same thing. You can buy it online though and have it shipped to the store for free, but no manager will give you what's on their shelf for the Walmart.com price.

This is why the other big box stores around here wont price match Walmart.com prices.

But I digress...glad you got a deal.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RhynosAndroid:
Yeah, you are in for a whole new world, even before you root it. You've got google goggles [that just got revamped w/an update] that does countless of awesome things w/just a pic, from solving Sudoku puzzles to price checking etc! Then there is Key Ring [which I use religiously now] that, scans the barcode on your different 'rewards' cards [Best Buy, Gamestop, Footlocker, etc] will recognize it and store it. When you go to check out, instead of fumbling through your wallet or keyring, pull up the app, hit the matching icon and they can scan it off your phone. I even used it at a job I worked at, where every morning I had to scan my badge and my vehicle codes to get my handheld started up. While everyone else had to go to there vehicles after waiting for their paperwork, scan the code and wait as it went through it's final boot up, I scanned from my phone while I waited for my paperwork and was out the door. That was on my N1.

Start exploring, but I warn you, it gets addicting, ESPECIALLY once you've rooted and seen all the freedom and advantages you have w/an open source OS as opposed to the likes of iOS. I'm getting giddy just thinking about it. Excuse me for a moment...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
Can you expand on this? What is this thing you speak of?

Ok, now that's cool really cool.

People keep talking about these freedoms/advantages w/ a rooted phone.. and so far, I have titanium backup, which is cool.. but what exactly are people getting at here? Is there like a pool of just freekin awesome apps that I'm missing here? I get the ROM stuff.. open source, etc.

haha, what did you go do?... go flash something?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
There is a difference between asking walmart (or any other big box store) to match walmart's online price versus an item that is in-stock at the store whereas a person can make the purchase online and head over to the store and pick it up.

I see what you're saying if it's just an online-store thing and the item isn't available in stock.. But when an item is in-stock at the store and you make the online purchase, you go to the store to pick it up for that price. It's just a pick-up for an already purchased item.

If I were in a store showing them their online price for an item in stock, and they wouldn't match it. I would make the purchase, then show them the receipt and instructions to go to the store and pick it up. The person would then hand it to me and I'd walk out.

I have called them immediately after an online purchase and asked how soon they could have it ready for pick-up. The last time, the representative said they'll go to the shelf right now and grab the item for me.. I waited on the phone to make sure they had it in-stock. I then went to the store with my online receipt... showed it to them, they gave me my item, and I walked out..

[General Questions and Answers] keoni8888:
Hi all -

Sorry for the noob question - I looked and could not find the answer.

I have CM7 installed on an SD card, mounted in a non-rooted Nook Color v1.2. Every thing is working great!

I am now trying to edit the build.prop file to get NetFlix working. However, after making the edits I cannot save the file. I assume that this is because of the lack of rooting.

My questions is... what do I need to root? Does the CM7 OS installed on the SD card need to be rooted? If so, how? I cannot find anything referencing this.

Or, is it that the Nook itself needs to be rooted? I can find documentation on this!

Any advice would be appreciated. I would like to avoid rooting the Nook itself if possible.

Thank you,

John :eek:
[General Questions and Answers] pchoi94:
i have the same exact question, trying to do the exact same thing, modify build.prop on a nook color with CM7 on SD. i dont' understand what is actually "rooted" - is it the OS or the kernel or the boot loader???

thanks for any help!
[General Questions and Answers] SonicClang:
Should I assume you figured out the solution already? If not, the easiest way I've found to edit the build.prop is to use Root Explorer. It's on the Google Marketplace. I believe it was a couple dollars, but well worth it.

When you open it, it will request super user permissions. Allow this. Browse to the system folder and then click the button at the top, "Mount R/W". Edit the build.prop file and save. Make sure to click the "Mount R/O" button to put it back into read-only mode. Then restart the device. Netflix should work fine then.

I go through this every time I install a nightly build, which has been quite frequent lately due to my geeky curiosity for new possible features. If I don't edit build.prop with "HTC Vision" and "HTC", the playback is in fast forward.
[General Questions and Answers] Wifflepig:
Hey Sonic - I'm having the same issue these two guys are. SU doesn't think the system is rooted (I'm using the latest nightly). Root Explorer doesn't give an option for RW, and when I try installing busybox, it barks that it isn't rooted. Even ROM manager (i know, ugh) barks about root not being there in the nightly.

I attempted to roll back to the 703 stable build, but for some stupid reason when I do that, I can't power-off/reboot-recovery option (it just reboots, doesn't go into recovery mode - which is then out of the question, because no gapps).

So...arrrgh.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anthropoidape:
This annoys the hell out of me too. It really should be built into the gmail app. I guess there are times when you'd want to send a 2MB image to someone via email but usually you don't.

The intuitive approach for me is to go to the gallery where I can easily browse photos, and then "share" the photo straight to the gmail app. Going to gmail then browsing the filesystem for the image is not as smooth (imho). So some of the resizing apps don't suit me.

Here is my current solution - an app called Image Shrink Lite. It lets you go to the gallery and "share" to Image Shrink Lite, then choose the size, then "share" again to gmail.

It's still clunkier than it should be of course but it is the best option I have found so far.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] silentecho13:
Seems like a decent solution, it isn't ideal but it works whenever you do need to shrink an image. Thanks for the tip!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pspjhp:
My solution is setting up my gmail account in the email app that came with my s3. When I need to send pjotos i attach them and a menu pops ip asking me if I want to resize my photos. Annoying that google doesn't have that as well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] seanpr123:
Well ****, so it does.

You can't share TO the email app (which I think would be ideal), but attaching a picture from Email allows you to resize to 70,30 or 10% original size.

You need to set the permissions for it. Also, get in the habit of going into recovery and making a nandroid backup before making changes to your device.

With a system level file manager like Root Explorer, maneuver to the /system/app folder, enable "mount r/w at the top of the screen, scroll down and locate mms.apk and then longpress on it. You will see several options with one of them being "permissions". Select permissions and set it accordingly:

Owner - Read Write

Others - Read

Afterwards, select okay and then select "mount r/o" at the top of the screen. You should be set.
