Comm Rom 1.3, sunder's PrYde theme and everything works as described. Wallpaper on lockscreen and all.

Pretty neat.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gunnermike:
when browsing through folders to flash a theme it only allows you to go 1 folder deep on the sd card. other then that works great.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] psykdup:
Yeah, I noticed that also. It also randomly does or does not delete backups. I'll try to sort those issues out soon.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gunnermike:
lol, that sounds fun.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bhfd64:
Nice! Thanks psykd.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] ggt1_02:
If I disable media scanner I lose the ability to use ringtones from the as card.

Sent from a MIUIWized XDA premium app.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheBadBen:
Turn it back on after you boot up. It's just to help it boot faster.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] psykdup:
.................................................................................
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bhfd64:
With it disabled Gallery tells me I have no sdcard. Same with Photobucket app.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] psykdup:
I just checked and I don't have that issue. As stated above, I cannot play ringtones for some strange reason, but my sd card is mounting fine for other things like the gallery, cwm, etc. Out of curiosity, is anyone else experiencing this issue???
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jjcas15:
Just flashed and disabled media scanner... same problem with the SD card
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] DoobiHowserMD:
I also had this problem as well as the others I stated before. Clean wipe, and fresh install of com rom made no difference, this app just doesn't like my phone I think.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheBadBen:
With Media Scanner unchecked I couldn't see pictures in Gallery, but as soon as I checked it again the card was scanned and all was well. I honestly thought that was the idea. Save some time booting up, and only scan the card when you need something.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] mod143:
i kinda thought that with media scanner disabled it just wouldnt scan on boot, i thought it would scan once i opened the gallery or whatever.. but this is a good feature because if i copy a picture to my sdcard it never shows up in my gallery until i reboot, but now i can just uncheck/check this and the gallery refreshes
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] psykdup:
I couldn't have said it any better. I plan to add a note about this in the OP when I'm not half asleep.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bhfd64:
Yeah it's not an issue really. I'll just go in and enable media scanning if I need to use or see the Gallery. I love the fast boot. Thanks again psykd.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] navenedrob:
Hey psykdup, just wanted to let you know that:

set_perm(0, 2000, 0755, 0755, "/system/bin/psykdup");

should actually be:

set_perm(0, 2000, 0755, "/system/bin/psykdup");

the first version you have written is for recursive.

BTW: love the backup/restore integration, it's like a mini RomManager :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gunnermike:
Except less douchy.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] psykdup:
Thx for pointing that out....
[HD2 General] Chilled26:
I've been seriously considering switching from my mt4g to an hd 2, would I be downgrading by doing this? Is it worth it? I've compared specs of both phones and basically the hd2 wins with the bigger screen and the option of 3 OS's and the mt4g wins with 720p recording and the 4g network. I've seen some really good deals on amazon for an hd2. Also should I buy the unlocked version or settle for the tmobile version?
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
if you buy one take the tmous version. for flashing roms the 1gb rom are very useful. with the normal version you always need an ext partition on your sd, especially with sense roms.
[HD2 General] Chilled26:
I did, I can't wait to put dual boot on it, it should arrive in a couple of days, $233.49 used in very good condition...I can't wait! What should I be looking in to while I wait?
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
that's a good price. here you can't get the normal version with less rom under $300 used.
[HD2 General] omarcos:
Hey i also downgraded from a galaxy s4g to the hd2, man it was well worth it even thought it doesnt have the front camera, you can still do so much with this phone :)
[HD2 General] dmoneyinc:
Congrats are in order I love the hd2 take this from someone who used to work for T-Mobile it's well worth the downgrade!
[HD2 General] Chilled26:
Ok so I got the phone but the touch screen is un responsive, should I go ahead and return the phoneor is there a solution ? How do I return a phone if I bought it on Amazon?
[HD2 General] huggs:
Definitely return it if the touchscreen doesn't work. Non-functional or malfunctioning digitizers are a relatively common problem in the HD2, and aren't a very easy thing to fix yourself, or very cheap to have fixed. Definitely get your money back if it's totally unresponsive.
[HD2 General] Chilled26:
I will have to wait untill Tuesday, I also noticed that the end call key is sort of stuck, it still works but its harder to press, Ive been reading these forums and saw that that may be the problem. Well I ordered a "new" hd2 and returning this one on Tuesday *sigh* more waiting time.
[HD2 General] huggs:
Yep, that sounds like a damaged digitizer ribbon all right. Man that sucks, sorry bout your bad luck, but at least you have a new one on the way.
[HD2 General] Chilled26:
Its finally here! Time to get started and this one actually works perfectly!
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
Suddenly today Email app refuses to connect to Gmail!

It can send emails but not receive saying error. Also connection test gives error.

Gmail itself works but it's disgusting app so I don't use it and it doesn't even store emails on phone.

Did Google change it's policy or what? Help please.
[Xperia Arc General] constin:
Everyone can't connect to gmail imap servers too.

Just have to wait it out.
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
Thanks I didn't know that!
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Have you upgraded to 2.3.3? think it might be a problem in there?
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
No I didn't.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I just set it up on my phone and it seems to be working... could it have been a glitch on the imap servers?
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
yes it's true, it was just a glitch. Now it's working here too.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pryonix:
Hi,

Can anyone recommend tablet-optimized (or at least something that looks good on a 7-inch android screen) versions of the following apps? I am using PhireMod 6.2 (based on CM7).

E-mail - Currently using the stock e-mail app. I'm looking for an app that would somehow function like GMail does in HoneyComb (where the message list appears in a pane on the left in landscape orientation). App also has to be able to sync Exchange. The closest one I found was "Mail'd" which is a Notion Ink Adam app. The interface of the app was great but using it was frustrating (no way to select all plus a lot of other minor annoyances that drove me back to using stock e-mail)

Calendar Widget w/ Montly view - I have NO idea why but searching "Calendar Widget" on the android market brings up a bazillion apps and widgets that CANNOT display monthly view. I am using Jorte temporarily but I really don't like the way it looks since it was built for smaller screens and it looks weird and fuzzy on the nook. I need a calendar widget that automatically marks days where I have meetings/appointments/shizz pulled from google calendar and exchange server.

RSS/News Reader - Currently using Pulse and I'm fairly happy with it but if there's a tablet optimized version of a better reader, I'd love to know what that is.

Calendar - Currently using Jorte and stock Calendar app. Again, the calendar looks weird on a screen as big and as expansive as the Nook's. I've tried Business Calendar but I don't like the way it looks. Can anyone suggest any other app?

Memo Widget - I own an LG Optimus One and I absolutely love the memo widget on it. It's very simple and you can type notes directly into the widget and you dont have to create a widget for each note you make. The widget allows you to page back and forth through the notes you have created. I tried using the same widget on my Nook but it looks ugly and blurred. I'm looking for a memo/note widget that does the exact thing but more optimized for a larger screen like that Nook's.

Messenger - I'm currently using YM for Android but I'd like to ask if there are any tablet optimized messengers that are compatible with YM and/or Microsoft Office Communicator.

Sorry, that seems like a lot but these little things have been bugging me hehe :P

Thanks in advance! :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] chemical1der:
Hey pyronix,

For e-mail I use Kaiten Mail, a tablet optimized app by the K9 Mail folks. I love it but sadly it doesn't have a widget. It looks just like Mail'd:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kaitenmail
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] GMKcz:
LauncherPro Plus has nice scrollable widgets
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] aberry:
Touch calendar pro has a great monthly widget that shows shared Google calendars in different colors. Not sure if it handles exchange though.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Canadoc:
kaiten doesn't support push on exchange
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pryonix:
*sigh* yeah that's why i'm sticking to stock for now.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Yeah, I'd say Kaiten too but your hard requirement of Exchange is currently lacking. It does some, but not all, or maybe not the latest? Something...

For Calendar, have you tried Touch Calendar? You can change the zoom and font size initially to whatever you want, plus easy to pinch zoom. I use it all the time on my Nexus 1 and the NC. There's a free version to try out the app itself, the paid version also has a widget, but not sure if it'll show a whole month or not.

Pulse has a "tablet version" which has panes separated out to view stories and headlines, but it's a Honeycomb feature they're using.. Other versions of Android see the same interface they've had for a while, which IMO is pretty good and keeps getting better... I do wish they had a limit on how far you could scroll, I often way overscroll by accident. Taptu has that feature, but everything else about Taptu sucks ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Taosaur:
I'm a big fan of Pure Messenger, though I don't use it for IMs. The widget is highly customizable. You can see I've got it filling most of a homescreen with white text and transparent background.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gquit:
All of the Pure widgets are really nice on the nook. I have pure grid calendar transparent on the home screen, It launched Business calender when I open it.

Pure messenger is also nice I have it set up for 3 separate widgets one for gmail, coolest part is you can open the email in a pop-up window right on the home screen. I have another set up for Facebook feeds, and a separate one for my corp. email. Check the last few pages of the nook screen shot thread there are lots of great screen shots of the pure widgets.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] chemical1der:
Whoops. Sorry, I didn't notice you were looking for Exchange support. As others have said it's the only thing Kaiten lacks. Otherwise it's pretty awesome.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pryonix:
Thanking everyone who replied to this thread :)

I am using S2 Calendar Widget right now but I will definitely check out the Pure apps later when I get home.

For instant messaging, I'm currently using imo.im which is A LOT better than the yahoo messenger client for android (and much stabler as well).

By the way, if any of you guys are looking for an OCS solution (Microsoft Office Communicator), I found this awesome app called Office Talk on the market. It's free and it works with both my clients' and my corp's office comm (I work for HP and provide IT services to Procter&Gamble lol).

I'm still stuck on stock for e-mail. :|

For memo, I'm attempting to use springpad but I really can't get myself to use it as part of my workflow yet. I really love the memo app that comes w/ the stock rom of my LG Optimus One but when I try to export it to the nook, it's as fugly as hell on the big screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pryonix:
What's the widget on the right side of the screen shot that shows you the memory and resource count? It's nice :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Taosaur:
That's Elixir, which is technically a system information app, but you can do anything and everything with the widgets. You can make a widget of nothing but app shortcuts, and the apps will be more closely spaced so that you get 3x5 shortcuts in a 2x3 space. The space-saving aspect is no big deal on the NC, but it does open up all kinds of new visual arrangements for grouping apps. I used to use it for toggling Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, too, before I realized those toggles are built into notifications.
[Desire General] gie62001:
hi to all

today was trying to run Chainfire3D on my Desire with GB RCMix S v1.6.2 Rom and everything seems to be ok when installing the driver however when the phone reboots its all the same when you go to Chainfire3D application again it seems like the driver was never installed as i cant see any other options untill the driver is installed, thus, cant install plugins to be able to run Tegra2 games.

did anyone with Desire have any success on installing and running Chainfire3D with any Tegra2 games?

thank you

EDIT: tried on my friends desire with 2.2 custom Rom and its the same, so i assume that the application doesn't support our desires, which is a shame as it runs smoothly on similar devices. will contact developer see what he sais
[Desire General] theyau:
worked for me, are you s-off?

you also need the plugins http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4P9LEW7P just extract then press install plugin on chainfire and go into open gl setttings and use plugins
[Desire General] gie62001:
thank you for reply and yes all desires need to be s-off in order to be able to install this driver as i just been contacted and i just realised how blind i was as its even written in market that HTC devices need to be s-off.

thanks and will try again
[Desire General] Meaple:
Thanks for reminding me to install this app. Nightmode working without plugins.

Swyped...
[Desire General] gie62001:
just quick update on this post. yes did s-off yesterday and yes it is working. tried samuraj vengance II and it works great.

@Meaple sorry but didnt see night mode in the one from the market as i guess it only was in the older version of this application.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1a2ab:
Hello. Does anyone else have this problem? Once I rooted my evolution it only picks up 2g when it used to get 3g in these same areas. Is this normal? Thank you all for your help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewZJ:
Did you change your Rom? How are you certain your only getting 2g?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkeybone12:
If you chanced the rom, you might only be seeing the "1x" when you really used to have it displayed 3g. Is it sense or AOSP?

I've flashed the stock back on when I was wondering about a certain area, still 1x speeds, but showing 3g.

Hope that helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1a2ab:
Sorry about the lack of info. Im running cm7 with firstblood theme and it displays 2g. Before this I had miui and it showed the 1x like you said earlier. The speeds are still pretty good though. Just wondering if this is normal. Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dboy352:
As long as your speeds are the same as hey were before, or close, then I wouldnt worry about it. It could just be a glitch in the rom that is recognizing 3g as 2g.

[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
something that i was searching for a while now and i think might be useful for others too

Sweet Home WiFi

wht it does:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/auto-upload-sync-android-camera-photos-and-videos-to-computer/

little info from that site:

"Users who frequently use their Android device’s camera, transferring or backing up photos and videos to a computer becomes a regular hassle that they would rather avoid. Sweet Home! for Android (2.1 and higher) is a handy application that automatically connects to a user-specified Wi-Fi network when it is in range and starts uploading pictures and videos taken using the camera to the network drive, media center, or home computer. Suppose every time you return home with new photos or videos in your Android phone, this app will start uploading them to a shared directory as soon as it is connected to your local Wi-Fi network."

P.S.:

this is not made by me... i just found this info and shared it as i thought it might be useful to others... any apps as alternatives that u guys have tried?
[XPERIA X10 General] cyberman_ni:
I have to try this out after trip uploads his latest masterpiece. I don't know how many times I have forgot to backup drunking pictures of the mates. Plus I'm on my 3rd sd card, the others just stopped working.

I will give feedback later
[XPERIA X10 General] gregbradley:
My phone explorer is also good....

this software had been developed for SE phones for many years now and is an excellent alternative to pc companion.

You can get it to connect to your home network via wifi and automatically sync contacts, messages, photos etc....

I have been using this for a couple of days on android now....seems very good.

EDIT: This is also very good to use a multi mount option on the SD card. It lets you browse the internal (If rooted) and external memories of the phone whilst still having the SD card mounted on the phone....
[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
the whole point is that i dont want to manually connect my phone/sdcard everytime... want it to sync over home wifi... i dont want to use dropbox its unnecessary waste of internet bandwidth from phone to dropbox server then back from dropbox server to my desktop....

[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:

[XPERIA X10 General] gosa:
Are there any apps that do the same, but to for example dropbox over the mobile internet instead of Wifi?
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
you can configure Titanium Media Sync; lets you backup to the cloud or your own servers via FTP, SFTP,FTPS. It also supports dropbox too.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZiggSVO:

and as much fun as it is playing as a cute little squirrel or bear its not as fun as diablo ;)

is dungeon defenders anything like it?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjhill2112:
I hear that. Dungeon Defenders is similar, but I could never get it to work well. Tons of crashes (forces phone to reboot) and very laggy.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnighttoker:
Zenonia is very Diablo like.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OperationMove:
Even with all of the good replies given here, there is really not a good quality diablo-type game out for the epic yet. Not one that actually feels and plays like Diablo. The closest would be Dungeon Hunter 1&2, still not the same though. Check them out.

Also another option would be to play with Psx4Droid and actually just go get a copy of the original Diablo Rom. Not trying to support warez but hey it's an option.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xhyperion:
I actually have pocket legends, dungeon defenders and dungeon hunters. I'm in the same boat as you.
