[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
1. As stated, you can get 24hrs + out of the evo, I have some screenies to prove it.

2. Swype I personally think is better. I don't always use it, but it is far from difficult, and fairly accurate.

3. Well exactly, but you pay for quality, and its an invest,emt, well worth it

4. I'm mad the kyocera echo even made it into the running. It has minimal support, and any of the "dual screen" apps are few and far between. You don't need 2 screens to view 2 web pages, that's why they invented tabs.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arachnomancer:
i understand,but i dont have the money for a really expensive phone like the evo 3D,or the nexus S.and if i can only get the epic from radio shack for $99,that is exactly what ill do.but do you know if you can root an epic and put sense on it,a good,working sense,with sense looking widgets that look half as good?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well I understand, but then at least get the evo shift; it'll have sense right off that back. Both can be rooted. I don't think you can put sense on the epic.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
Not at the moment there isnt. A sense port is being worked on, but its not available yet.

[HTC Inspire 4G] mohkg:
Is there any other ones
[HTC Inspire 4G] Androidude:
You can try Contacts GO Widget. Although you have to use GO Launcher EX for it to work.

[G2 and Desire Z General] teh5abiking:
Hi guys, me again, and after a bit of trolling through the general sub-forum of the G2DZ questions. One redundant thread I saw page after page after page is "When's the next version of (insert ROM here) coming out?"

I'd like to do the entire community a favor, and I'd like to give a public service announcement to all of the people here on xda-developers.

Developers of ROMs such as CyanogenMod are always working on the next release to make it better than the last. Please do the developers a favour and DO NOT ASK FOR an ETA. (Coincidentally, the only rule of CM is "Don't ask for ETAs")

Why? Well the developers are always at work creating updates to your favorite ROMs and when you ask for an ETA, you're really taking time away from their busy schedule just to quell your questions and such. I actually know because a close friend of mine is one of the developers of the much touted CyanogenMod ROM, and he along with the rest of the dev team get annoyed when people ask for an ETA.

If you're really impatient on waiting for the next release candidate or stable release, just flash a nightly build (ROMs that are compiled/built in quite literally one night and are released in less than a week) if you can. I've done so myself, and the last several nightly builds of CM7 have been better than the stable release.

Thank you for your time

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yangkx:
So I want to use my phone as a in-helmet camera. But the only way I can fit it in is to have it standing up. And so the videos recorded are all sideways, I have to rotate them in an editor and crop the videos, hence losing quality and the scope of the image.

Is there a way for me to record videos with my Captivate while holding it in a portrait mode but having the phone interpreting it as the normal landscape mode?

I actually doubt that, so plan B would be an external camera input for the phone, so I can use hold that camera however I want.

And since plan B is also improbable, plan C would be to tear open my phone and taking the physical camera, turning it sideways, and putting it back in.

Are any of these plans possible?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
They sell helmet cams...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yangkx:
Yeah I know but the Captivate is half as thin as the thinnest pocket cams there are out there. So if I get in an accident I won't smash my teeth in.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceman198:
I've been rotating them afterwards...using FFMPEG (google it). Works best on linux (Ubuntu or whatever your liking).

If you do use ffmpeg and convert the video to an mp4, you have to downgrade the fps. There are some tutorials if you search. It took me forever to figure it out.
[Galaxy S II General] dehugin:
can anyone confirm that the compass is not the most uselesss thing on the phone like with the i9000. in other words does it work... does is need cal. ever uses? or does it actually work like any other phone that has one?
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Compass is a billion times better than i9000. I haven't had to do a figure 8 yet, I was doing figure 8s in public all the time like a crazy person with my i9000.

GPS is friggin' awesome too. Ultra fast lock... and used Google Maps + Navigation for almost 5 hours yesterday, never had a single overshoot or jump to adjacent streets in areas/on roads that I know for SURE that my i9000 was all over the place with. Couldn't be happier. :)
[Galaxy S II General] dehugin:
nice, thx for the reply. now i just need to get rid of this proto type (my i9000)

Yep, that's a prototype is what the i9000 feels like after using the i9100. Hope mine sells soon!

Hello everyone. I recently got ahold of my friends Hd2 and he wanted me to flash android. Everything is working great except Windows mobile device center no longr see's the phone after the flash. So now I cant add this bootscreen I found using the CustomRUU because I cant sync with windows mobile device center anymore. Which also means I can't flash anything(ROMS,CustomRUU) Please help. Is there any other way to Flash ROMS and CustomRUU's without it being synced? This is what I mean. This is the process I cant do anymore:(Instructions:

[*]Whilst the device is in

Windows Mobile, connect it to the PC via USB.

[*]Connect device with '

Windows Mobile Device Center

'.

[*]Run the CustomRUU.exe (with administrative privileges)

[*]Press update

[*]Success! )due to windows mobile device center no longer finding phone. I have tried tons of things and still cant get it to work anymore.

EDIT: I was able to use bootloader to use the CUSTOMRUU. But can this process work for everything?
[Android Themes] 0vermind:
I hate how the lockscreen has the carrier text off to the top right, and the rest of the lockscreen text off to the left. It's just ugly. Can someone provide me with a mod to center the lockscreen text? I'm running CM7 Latest Nightly. That would be awesome! Thanks so much!!!
[Android Themes] plainjane:
I know it doesn't answer your question, but you can always use WidgetLocker. Then you can use any clock widget anywhere - or specifically, centered.

I am wondering if there are any stable versions of the Acer Liquid's Nemo Player for the Inspire that anyone knows of. I am looking for a player that can also double as a gallery and Nemo is perfect but when I open up the video gallery it force closes. Everything else seems to work fine on it though. I am running MIUI.

Worst case scenario, also wondering if there is a way to put HTC music back onto my phone without going back to Sense or if that is too tied into Sense to work. I have looked all over and it seems to have been ported but it won't load on my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] KEMsoft:
Hi,

I developed an app called "myProfit" that is already on the Android Market as a free ad supported version and a paid Adfree version. Its a financial calculator to figure Profit, margins, markups, price increase, price discounts and for good measure I threw in a tipping calculator.

Its been up for a couple of weeks now and my free version is up to 450 downloads with a active install of 75% and a whooping 6 download for the paid version.

I haven't gotten a lot of feedback on it yet. There has been three ratings one 5 stars, one 2 stars and one 1 star (with one comment of "Ads are annoying"). I use Flurry to track the analytics and out of the active users there is a large percentage that use it multiple times on a regular basis, but of coarse they haven't rated it.

I was wondering if any of you guys could go check it out and see if there are any bugs or issues that I haven't caught. Any advice/constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!!!

I can't post outside links since I'm a new user so to find my app in the Android Market simply search for myProfit. It's the only app that will pop up.

Thanks for the help.

**The images I've attached are slightly different then the current version that is on the Market. Tomorrow I'm release another update to the app and these images are the new screen shots. The only thing that looks different is the calculate button.**
[Android Apps and Games] KEMsoft:
I updated myProfit on the android market, so the above attached images are now correct.

Please let me know any of your thoughts.

Thank you

[Android Apps and Games] KEMsoft:
Cool!!! I'm excited. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!!
[Android Apps and Games] Rydah:
i think its smooth. the ui is kind of boring. looks like the market. good app!

how about adding finance managment? maby a in app purchase feature.

something like the person enters an amount that they have and can add to it or subtract with bank statment style looks. an option to export it would also be cool. also maby even integrate this feature with printershare or sim. apps for printing straight from the device. so much you can do. looks good so far. what do you think?
[Android Apps and Games] KEMsoft:
I really appreciate your input! I like a lot of those ideas. Don't be surprised if you see them implemented in the app down the road.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out!!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clipse79:
OK the last few days I finally rooted tried a few ROMS and seem to run into all sorts of issues that have got me to this point...

Redux: Home and Search Buttons stop working

CM7: Cannot get Marketplace

Oxygen: Will not load

Miui: Did not like it

Now I cannot clear Davlik Cache which I am sure is causing a lot of issues. I never made an original back up before all this.

Question: How do I clear all this crud off as if I never installed a ROM and was going to for the first time? How do I get access to Dalvik Cache? I just want CM7 or Redux to work and not have any issues but I obviously did something wrong at some points. If I clear all the contents off my SD card except the Redux install will I be free and clear? Or is there something in the phones internals I need to do also?

I am also tempted to just return it to complete stock and start all over if I have to. Any suggestions would be great and appreciated. If you need more info let me know....

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohawka:
I have an evo so Idk your procedure to get to your recovery image but that's where u need to go when u rooted u should have installed one hopefully amon recovery then once u get into recovery there will be a wipe option then do all the wipe options and u will have a clean cache and be ready to install a new rom. And as far as cm7 goes with u not having a market u gotta make sure u flash the gapps after u boot into the rom so its a 2 part process. Im sure that if u search engine u can find a guide specific to your phone explaing how to access the recovery from a phone off state. But id guess that if u hold vol down while pressing power it will prolly pop up with the bootloader then u can pick recovery from the menu but Idk for sure cuz I don't have ur phone but im sure there is a guide for u if use a search engine
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kokocabana:
have you been flashing each rom over the other without doing any wipes?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clipse79:
The first ROM or two I did without a wipe (noob)

I flashed GAPPS twice and still no market but all other Google Apps. Besides that CM7 was good. I did run into an issue where I could not sync with GMAIL but factory reset took care of that.

Also I am on Unrevoked
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaa:
- For each flash it is better to wipe everything including "dalvik cache".

- Have you read the prerequisites of each ROM before flashing like recommended radio+RIL, S-Off+nand partition table (CM7, Bravo, etc.), and/or EXT partition/s?

It would be very wise to read/learn and ask around first before doing anything st*p*d which could brick your Desire.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaa:
Now...to have at least a working desire.

Flash a rooted stock ROM if you do not have any EXT partition.

[edit] or any simple A2SD+ ROM if you have an EXT partition on your SD-Card. Stay away from Data2EXT, Data2whatever, CM7, etc.at this point of time because you need to learn more first. [end of edit]

Learn more and flash the any ROM you want after proper preparations :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clipse79:
Thanks..

Like I said though Dalvik cache will not get wiped as Recovery keeps telling me it cannot mount, but will mount the card.

One thing I never did was partition the SD card and its just one big mess. I think a lot of stuff has been installed on the actual Desire itself.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Just wipe everything from recovery, and I would also wipe and reformat the sd.

Then you can flash whatever with no conflicts!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waltah!:
I recently picked up a NS4G as my first Sprint phone. I haven't been thrilled with reception including wifi. I had a chance to test wifi today and was pretty surprised. I tested wifi at a friend's house vs an iPhone and iPad. Using Speedtest.net app on all the difference was ridiculous. Using a laptop along with them for good measure these are the results.

Nexus S 6Mbps/d 4Mbps up

Laptop on speedtest site 20Mbps/d 13Mbps up

iPad 19Mbps/d 12 up

iPhone 4 pretty much same as iPad.

How can the difference be so huge? I never see more than 2 bars (usually 1) of 3g signal and many times my wifi signal drops even though I'm only a few feet away from the router.

Anyone else done similar tests?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TWiTCommander:
This is what I get on my 8Mbps/1Mbps connection:

Nexus One 6.0/1.0/15ms

Nexus S 7.5/1.0/8ms

iPhone4 7.3/0.9/33ms

MacBook 7.7/0.7/5ms

All in the same ballpark I would say.

I wouldn't compare the number of bars between different devices. Calibration is usually different. Remember how Apple changed the number of bars you get after Antennagate?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] styckx:
It's the app, not the wifi

Set your user agent to Desktop and try the speedtest.net through a browser instead.

edit: pixelated my ip
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagercrow:
I was doubting your results so I tested myself and was surprised. I used the speedtest app on my phone and speedtest.net via chrome on my windows laptop. Both are sitting the same exact distance from router. Laptop shows full signal, phone shows 1 bar. Both are using the same server in Modesto, Ca

phone 34ms ping 8154kbps/4001kbps

laptop 30ms ping 19.30Mbps/3.86Mbps

I don't understand why the DL is half via the phone, but I'm not really concerned either. It would be nice to have full signal on my wifi since I'm only about 20feet from my router which is behind my TV.

You can, although it only stays until you exit the app.

Type "about:debug" without the quotes in the browser address bar. Then, go to preferences and find "UAString" and set to desktop.

Is there a particular ROM that is a fully functional, cut above the rest, must-have custom ROM? Looking to root my G2X, but I was wondering if it was even worth it at this point (aside from getting rid of bloatware).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
At this point, probably Bionix 2.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jamadio:
I say Bionix 2 eventually. For right now I don't think there is a very "feature-rich" ROM that is stable enough for true everyday use. Right now we're limited to stable ROMs that remove bloatware and optimize the software.

I am currently using EaglesBlood 1.0.4 Froyo and am very happy with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jfleegle:
Is there a ROM that fixes the problem with frequent data disconnections? I can't do anything that involves streaming, including Slacker, without the phone constantly losing its connection.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LurkerRWO:
Maybe thats a problem with the 4G network? I live in between Milwaukee and Chicago, so its shaky at best. I average around 800 kb/s (pathetic) but the closer I get to either city and it starts to take off (6 mb/s is my all time high IIRC) A friend (who is also a tmobile rep, so take this with a grain of salt) mentioned that t-mobile is revamping their 4G network and coverage should be much much better in our area around the end of summer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cavenger:
Bionix 2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
I'm glad thats not just happening to me. Are you losing mobile connection or WiFi connection of data? Honestly it happens to me all day everyday... All connections just get locked out, anywhere from 2mins to 10mins.

None of the kernels/ROMs are working like you expect. Some say they do but if you're like me and use data, sms, mms, phone, email and gps then you're SOL. because one if not more of those things are going to just not work or cut in and out on you. So play around if you have self control to not destroy your phone into a thousand pieces.

I'm trying EagleBlood now...after I charge this thing I mean. lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] madwolf27:
Eaglesblood 1.04 GB is absolutely perfect so far.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] YuryAC:
I would say Bionix 2 is on its way, CM 7 still needs a lot of work to be a stable daily driver. Haven't tried any others, but too many issues it seems, on any of thse roms for it to be classified as "far above the rest".

Im using the leaked 2.3.3 ROM and so far have had no issues, works like a charm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
You got a source you can point to?

...and say you're on a leaked 2.3 would your device auto-recognize that a 'newer version is available' if they push the update? Probably not huh...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
I would say any of the custom roms are more stable than stock INCLUDING CM7. Honestly, I have no idea why some people are still saying CM7 is not a daily driver. I'm pretty picky and I find it to be damn near perfect now. It had plenty of issues on the first nightly, but by #11 or so, it had everything major worked out, and by #18, even the minor stuff has basically disappeared.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moshe22:
For me is EB Froyo 1.04
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DrowsyMalice:
Ask this question in a month or two.

But for now bionix 2.

Sent from my G2x running Bionix 2 with the power of Trinity.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
Well think about it.. say it DID detect that auto update... you wouldn't want to auto update your rooted G2X with an official from from T-Mob that would UNROOT your phone anyway. When that release comes we're all going to wait for the devs to do their thing on it and then update... if other custom roms are ready yet that is.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
>Well thats exactly why I mentioned it. This is my first droid and first time getting my hands dirty in Linux. I have a background in windows scripting so there's a little learning curve but Im picking it up quick. I dont know if they typically "push" these updates or if it's user initiated.

Anyway I just flashed the leaked version of GB 2.3 and it's totally solid... feels like butter, so smooth and much more feel (you'll see what I mean). The the leaked version had signed release keys which is *usually* indicative of a publishable version... meaning this very well may be the actual release.... just leaked :) The baseband hasn't been updated so no super goodies yet and the kernel is the same as stock but here's a start. I think THIS is a good page to link to since it gives the detailed root/download/install instructions for you folks that get unsure of yourself at every step ;)

*EDIT*= Just noticed something... In the link follow all the relevant instructions. One thing I disagree with and advise otherwise is the "ROM Manager > Install ROM from SD Card"... this has a few potentials for failure and just isn't reliable enough to recommend. I've had ROMs not load or not update and you just open an unneeded potential for problems. When you get to that step do this instead: Open ROM Manager and select "Backup Current ROM"... your device will reboot and backup etc.. Once its done and restarts go back to ROM Mgr and select "Reboot In Recovery" and from there you should choose "Install from zip"... the UP and DOWN Volume keys move the cursor and the Power button pressed once is 'select'... just move slow so you dont accidentally hit the power button on the wrong option. If you do it this way your potential for success is superior. :cool:

**Again read all disclaimers and notations associated with modifying your device and do so at your own will. Damaging consequences could always occur.**
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
doesn't matter because devs will likely make a rom for ne new gb ota updates any ways so......
