NYC Subway.. i bought several others coz none had trial , but uninstalled all others and just kept this one.. because its the best out their ... it even locates closest subway to you using your gps..
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koolxx:
2 questions.. does it provide a list of stops for each subway line? and, where did you got that app?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Purple11:
Yes it does.. it has everything which every other software out their has... but has a little bit more for the same price and better organized..

I got it from desktop MP.. search for 'new york subway' .. its icon has yellow circle with NYC written inside it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koolxx:
hi, purple... thanks for the info. so, is this app compatible for 6.5 also? I'm a newbie, so bear with me.

also, i tried to search for desktop MP.. but i cant find it. please provide the link.. thanks!!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avandor:
There's quite a lot of NYC subway apps (free and paid)... either search and install them thru the Market app or use Zune.

[Defy General] Vistaus:
According to androidplanet.nl, the 2.2-upgrade should be available in The Netherlands and some say they have gotten it. But when I go to System Updates, it says that everything is up-to-date (2.1). Where is the 2.2-upgrade?
[Defy General] Frost Storm:
anybody to confirm this?
[Defy General] wout1:
As far as I know the Defy is officially not released in the Netherlands. I think my defy is officially a France one.
[Defy General] Vistaus:
Yes it is officially released here. The official Dutch version is sold at belsimpel.nl, Expansys and Media Markt. The Motorola-website also lists the Dutch version at the Defy-page.
[Defy General] wout1:
Strange, when I send my defy to Rijswijk for a hardware problem, they send it to France because they didn't support the Defy.

According to the Motorola site Froyo is being rolled out in selected countries. The do not say which ones. But if I look at the Dutch software update site, the Defy isn't listed. So I think the Netherlands is not on of the 'selected countries' yet.
[Defy General] Vistaus:
Weird that androidplanet.nl said it was and some users reported it.

But they do support the Defy in The Netherlands, so I dunno what the problem with yours was.
[Defy General] wout1:
The internal speaker was broken. For some reason they send it to France to get fixed. This is what they told me (in Dutch)
[Defy General] eaustra:
I think "support" is relative term here, where Motorola does not have official representation in The Netherlands but rather let the retail chains figure it out with service points in surrounding countries.

I'm pretty sure mine is a German retail. System version:

Blur_Version.2.51.1.MB525.Retail.en.DE

I think the DE there means Deutsch (=German). What versions do you guys have?

I haven't received an update either by the way.
[Defy General] Fotogravin:
I'm living in the Netherlands. My husband has a french version, which we were able to update with the Motorola Software Update. I do have the german version (.DE) and did not update with MSU. But because I nearly bricked my phone, I flashed the french .sbf (2.51.0, then updated with MSU, lost connection during the update, tried to reflash 2.51.0 which failed and finaly flashed the 3.4.2-164 from this topic) and now my defy is running smoothly, 48 hours with my normal use before getting the 15% battery warning
[Defy General] Vistaus:
The version here is Blur_Version.2.51.1.MB525.Retail.nl.NL
[Defy General] wout1:
So, you have a real Dutch one. Guess you have to wait for the Dutch roll out. Just as Androidplanet stated.
[Defy General] Vistaus:
Well, Androidplanet said it was rolling out here.
[Defy General] wout1:
This is what Androidplanet says:

So I'me afraid you'll have to have a little (more) patience.
[Defy General] Vistaus:
And that's what they said a while ago. But ah well, guess I'll have to wait then, or is there any other way to get it without flashing a ROM?
[Defy General] wout1:
You can always try to update via the Motorola site
[Defy General] Vistaus:
If you can get me Windows ;)
[Defy General] wout1:
Sorry, Almere is a bit too far for me. I live in Limburg ;-)

[Defy General] Vistaus:
Thanks :)

But the first link doesn't help at all. He notes the Blurless devices, but mine does have Blur, so I dunno what to do in that case. I was reading about installing the leaked 2.3.3, but I want a usable camera (those other small bugs, I don't care about them).

But I'll guess I'll have to wait then, thanks anyway :)

@wout: No problem ;)
[Defy General] torrentsite:
Phones with Motoblur get's Froyo OTA en Blurrless with use of the MSU.

More original roms http://tweakdroid.info/?p=34
[Defy General] :
Ow, thanks about that :)

But that site is incorrect. 2.3.3 for the Defy is not official but leaked. At this moment.

And even then, it's much more work of flashing a ROM than just updating it via OTA or MSU.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jmtheiss:
I've searched through the forums, and I can't find an answer to this question:

Is there an app (or part of the framework.. or whatever is the appropriate area) that would allow me to get the look of the Android 1.6 app drawer with its slide-up/slide-out/pull-down feature? I had found one a while back (I don't remember the name.. something with panda in it, maybe), but the app was a full-fledged launcher with the drawer and the launcher wasn't any good.

I know it's a little nitpicky, but I like the UI idea of physically opening a drawer to see all my apps. If there's a way to extract it from 1.6 and drop it in, that would be ideal, but I'll admit I know next to nothing about how the Android system works.

On a side note, I'm running GB on Mosaic with Talon's kernel (at the moment), if that is of any use.

Thanks in advance, even if the answer is no.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sebby4u:
i need same thing to, i think is called slide drawer if you find/found it please let me know (for now i found only launchers witch change all things)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Gregen11:
The panda laucher you were talking about would be called panda home if that helps any.

Sent from my Captivate using Mosaic
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jmtheiss:
Thanks. I couldn't remember the name.

Yeah, that's it - Panda Home has a drawer style called "1.5 drawer", and it's exactly what I'm looking for.

Now I need to figure out how to get that same functionality out of the Android source.

Well, not me per se - I don't know how to do that.

So I guess at this point I ask politely if there are any Android wizards out there who know how to extract the app drawer out of an old version of Android and make is something that could be dropped in a current version.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] hackzero_xda:
The "Tag Home Launcher" is what you are looking for. It features a slide up app drawer like in Android 1.6. Only the design of the drawer knob is a litte bit different. I'd like it to be exactly as the one in Android 1.6 but I could't get that. Tag Home is as close as I got.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jmtheiss:
Thanks for the heads-up on that launcher. It's got the drawer I'm looking for, but it looks like the same issue as Panda Home - it's part of a launcher. I'm looking for something that could either be used as a widget in place of the app drawer for whatever launcher I'm using.

The more I think about it, maybe I'm going about this the wrong way. Perhaps it would be best for me to point my request at the makers of the launcher I like, and see if they can implement it into the launcher (horse before the cart and all that). If anyone has any more ideas, I'm definitely interested, but I think this might be a moot point.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crxforya:
Just a quick question about rooting the phone and having data issues. Is it true that some vibrants run into data issues after being rooted? I am on my second vibrant and it never fails to let me down when I need data. Does anyone else experience this? Data drops on several different roms, kernels, and modems; also drops on rooted stock roms. Im about to just trade this P.O.S. in for something else. Ive never had this problem on my G1 or my Mt3g.

Thanks for listening.

Jay
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Just rooting? NO.. no data issues at all.

Did you flash CM7?

Does the IMEI match that on the back of your phone?

Have you gone back to stock JFD and then tried again (meaning not rooted)?

The only time I've heard people with issues is when not backing up their EFS when going to CM7 and back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crxforya:
Thanks for you reply, I have gone back to stock (going to do again when I get home) but it seems that every rom I try I have data drop issues after a few days of use, even on the stock rooted roms. I had the same problem on my other phone which is why I turned it in. Just cant believe that both phones had exact same issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crxforya:
Update:

I have verified that there is some bug w/ rooted phones and data. I have unrooted phone and I have not lost data once in the last 3 weeks. Before being rooted even with a stock rom I would get 3-5 days max of data running before having to re-install rom or do factory data reset. Does anyone else share the same issue, or if anyone knows a work around for data on rooted phones that would prevent the data drop.

thanks,
[HTC Inspire 4G] eskimosnow:
So I've been experiencing these weird bugs over the past couple months on many different ROMS and what not. Here's what happens:

1- Sometimes (I'd say every three days) when I power up my phone it boots and shows the homescreen but it's extremely laggy for about 30 seconds, it vibrates for about 3 seconds then acts normal.

2- Random parts of the screen become unresponsive. This happens daily, for example, when typing a text I can hit the t, f, h, and b keys but for some reasons the g will not respond. If I hit any other key it will vibrate as I have it set to do, but not the g, it will not vibrate or enter the letter in the text. And it isn't always the g, it changes letters each time.

3- The vibration feedback on the letters lag or go off an on. If I type a few words quickly it will vibrate maybe every other letter or not at all then catch up with one long vibrate.

These aren't major but they can be annoying. Any help will be much appreciated!
[HTC Inspire 4G] eskimosnow:
Bump. Anyone? Now everytime I text some of the letters are unresponsive and the phone vibrates erratically.
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Did you try different ROMs
[HTC Inspire 4G] born_fisherman:
Sounds like you need to revert to stock and start over.. bad flash or combination of flashes
[HTC Inspire 4G] eskimosnow:
I've had about 6 different ROMs over the past few months and it has only started happening the last month or so. I just restarted my phone and now everything is back to working fine. I thought maybe it was glitching because of water damage but the indicator on my battery is white as ever. Could it be something I installed?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Very possibly. I just got done removing an app that started messing with my head, by way of weird **** happening with the keyboard.

Thing is, I hadn't yet run the app even once, but it decided to install itself as a service, nonetheless.

I had to check running services to figure out it had loaded without me even giving an initial run of the app.

[HTC Inspire 4G] niezek:
I had similar issues when I first got the phone with the stock Rom before rooting or flashing roms. After I started flashing I never had the problems again. I recently went back to stock for the ota and the problems were back.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
I've experienced this. I'm stock, but a thorough wiping of the area with a cloth (or shirt) made it responsive again. Weird, I know.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
Try doing a FULL wipe before installing a rom.

I have had the same type issues in the past when trying to short cut and not do a full wipe first. The Full Wipe 1.3 makes it very easy and it seems most of the little bugs you are describing go away.

I for one will never flash a rom without doing a full wipe. The time saved troubleshooting is so well worth it!

Let me know if you cannot find the tool....:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
+1

Seriously. Every single dev recommends a full wipe prior to a new flash.

I've seen it mentioned often by devs that 99% of all problems people encounter are caused by left over **** from the previously installed rom, not to mention countless instances of "wiped this or that and reflashed...problem went away" by members in the rom threads.

[Xperia Play General] dormisher:
I want to get rid of all the Sony Ericsson stuff off my xperia play, I want Android running just as Android. Android home screen etc.

Someone said I should root the phone first - which I have done following a tutorial on this forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1043630&page=1). This has been successful, but I'm not sure what to do now.

How do I get rid of everything and sort of set it back to Android standard? Do I need to get an app off marketplace and then manually remove the bloatware?? I would try this but I know if you remove the Sony Ericsson home application normally it breaks the phone.

Thanks in advance guys, sorry for the noob question!
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
If you are not very technical savvy (like me), i think the best you can do for now is install Titanium Backup and manually remove the bloatware. (you can find numerous threads about this here).

I personally am waiting for the guru's to release custom roms. When this starts to happen, i'm sure a stock Gingerbread rom will be released.

I'm kinda interested though myself if anything else can be done.
[Xperia Play General] svenk919:
If you get root install launcherpro and then delete the SE home launcher with titanium backup.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1046699 here you can see what you can safely remove.
[Xperia Play General] dormisher:
Yeah but if you remove the bloatware I really want to remove, such as the Sony Ericsson home thing and all the official playstation stuff, the phone will stop working won't it?

I think what you mentioned with the stock gingerbread rom is probably the best way to go, think I will just wait untill someone does one. Or maybe even install an older version of Android.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Nobody will do a Froyo ROM for the Xperia Play. It just doesn't make sense.
[Xperia Play General] uccoffee:
you will need to root your phone 1st, then delete those junkwares.

If you are worry, then just get titanium pro and freeze those SE stuff, eg timescape, digital clock x 2, liveware, media server, xperia play, time scape widget(s).

have fun :)
[Vibrant General] mugenfiji0327:
I've tried most of the roms on here and most of the ones I've tried the keyboards that come with them suck. Now I'm not a developer and this is not to blame any rom developers. I just don't understand why the only good keyboard that was ever made for android is the Gingerbread keyboard. Swype sucks in my opinion and so does the samsung and android keyboards. The only keyboard that I like for android is the gingerbread one. I just wish that more roms would come with that keyboard instead of me having to flash it. Anyway rant over. All keyboards suck except for the gingerbread one.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
People have differing opinions, I will only use swype as it's the only one I can do without even looking at my phone AND I hate to peck... perhaps my southern accent messes with voice to text b/c that is not 100% for me either.

Have you tried the flexT9? Pretty amazing and was free recently on Amazon.

Also, I made a thread a long time ago on tweaks you could do to swype to make it a lot more accurate... and the beta is a LOT better than the one that came with the phone. Sounds like you have no interest in it though.

[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
I would highly recommend "Perfect keyboard" to you, on the market. its based off the gingerbread keyboard, with added features, functions, and customization options.....i use swype, but perfect keyboard is the only keyboard i will use that doesnt have trace input.

PS - you cant blame the developers for the keyboards that are available to choose from. most of the good keyboards on the market are paid, and therefore would be considered warez if they were injected into ROMs. they can only choose from free/stock keyboards.

you certainly cant just expect them to develop a keyboard app from scratch, because that very well may be beyond the skill level of some/most/all of our ROM developers. Unless a ROM is being cooked from scratch (coded from the ground up), which none of our Vibrant ROMs are, they're all based off Samsung code; it would be much more difficult to build a keyboard app than compile a ROM. Hence it would be an unfair expectation for our devs.

PPS - trolls, dont misinterpret what i just said. i am fully aware that most of these developers have more skill then me....all im saying is that everyone's skill is limited, and we should be respectfully wary of unfair expectations.
[Vibrant General] mugenfiji0327:
No offense man but can you read ? I didn't say anything negative about any developers. So don't tell me that I can't blame the developers when I didn't blame them. You need to read the whole post and not just the first sentence when you're responding to something. Otherwise people might get upset like I am now. I also don't expect anything from the devs, they build roms for us and I greatly appreciate it. I've hit the thanks button on every rom I've downloaded. Seriously why did you even reply to this ? It was a rant on keyboards. I didn't want to have a discussion about it nor did I want some moron coming in here saying I said **** I didn't say.
